Fu Song

Chapter 350 Help, resistance?
After all, Old Master Cen was a bit older, and after all the traveling, no matter how carefully Cen Zhong took care of him, he was still tired after all. After the welcome banquet, he was settled and went to rest first.Jiang Yingxue took over these matters, so Xiao Cheng didn't need to worry about them.

The highest point of the original Wang family mansion is a huge platform, the surface of the platform is covered with white marble slabs and railings. Standing on this place, you can overlook the whole city, and even the mountains a little farther away look even bigger. It is lower here, which really means that the mountains are small at a glance.

When Wang Li built this big house, he heard that he had a well-known Feng Shui master come to see it.

The feng shui here may be really good, but the fate of Wang Li's family is really bad.

But in just two years, Bangzhou, who still remembers who the Wang family is?
Even this Wang family mansion has changed its name now.

Xiao Cheng and Cen Zhong sat on the platform. There were no appetizers on the table, but two jugs of wine were placed on the table.

Mr. Cen was no longer present, and Cen Zhong no longer concealed it, but said directly: "This recruiter on Guangnan West Road is not a good official."

Xiao Cheng smiled slightly, "Whether it's good or not depends on how the senior brother wants to be. If the senior brother treats him as an official, he goes to Guizhou, sits in the yamen, ignores everything, and takes care of him outside." The wind and thunder are raging, and I can't afford to lie down. Anyway, the official salary of our Song Dynasty is very generous, and there are more ministers' money, which can be spent as you like. And in my opinion, once the air of the senior brother is put on, I'm afraid Everyone on Guangnan West Road will be happy, and maybe someone will bring red see, everyone is happy together, everyone is happy."

Cen Chong snorted, picked up the jug, took a sip from the spout and said, "What if I want to be another kind?"

Xiao Cheng nodded: "Then there is a great risk, not only the local officials will fight against you, but also the local gentry will not stand by your side, and there is even the tough Shibadong Cave master, none of the barbarians scattered along the road is easy to mess with! If you want to be such an official, you must have the consciousness of being a loner with your head pinned to your trouser belt."

"Didn't I come here for you?" Cen Chong glanced at Xiao Cheng: "Otherwise, why would I come to you in such a hurry? And shamelessly dragging my father who is about to pass away."

Xiao Cheng laughed.

In front of Mr. Cen, this elder brother was dignified and dignified, with a dignified appearance, he looked like an upright gentleman who would not eat or drink from stolen springs, but when he turned his back, he showed his face.

However, Xiao Cheng appreciates such a senior brother even more.

This is how it works!
You have a Chengfu, you have wrists, you can pull your face down, looking at this appearance, I'm afraid he can be ruthless.

Maybe, this elder brother already had some calculations in his heart when he wrote that booklet.

"What does senior brother want?" Xiao Cheng spread his hands and said, "As long as I want, I will do my best."

"Does it need to be said? I entered Guangnan West Road alone, how can I restrain those local snakes? Naturally, I need some elite soldiers to go in with me."

"Eldest brother, do you want to make that mountain crushing, and thunder be furious?"

Cen Zhong shook his head and said: "Of course it's spring breeze turning rain and thunder and lightning going hand in hand. Someone Cen is quite well-known among scholars, and it's not like no one cheers for me on Guangnan West Road. It's just that these people are all The mouth is strong, but the fists and feet are loose. On Guangnan West Road, the fists and feet are probably more powerful than the mouth. I got powerful fists and feet from you, and with those mouths that wave the flag, things will be much easier. "

"Guangnan West Road has economic envoys and transshipment envoys. Officials at all levels are neat. Compared with Qianzhou, they are not at the same level at all!" Xiao Cheng said: "Elder brother is so sure?"

Cen Zhong didn't take it seriously: "A group of bureaucrats with flat collars is commonplace. It seems that they are entangled with each other and powerful, but in fact, as long as they break apart a little, they will be defeated like a mountain."

"Where do you want to start, big brother?"

"As a recruitment envoy, I naturally start with the crusade against non-officials and Jing'an." Cen Zhong said with a smile: "Junior brother, don't say you have no idea over there!"

Xiao Cheng laughed loudly: "Eldest brother is worthy of being a senior brother. He can see what I want to do at a glance. I really want to tell you that I have some plans to take a bite of Guangnan West Road. Anyway, I am free now. It’s okay, but beating a child on a rainy day, I have to find something to do. As you said, I really don’t pay attention to those official bugs. Unexpectedly, the senior brother came, so I couldn’t do it myself. "

"It's the same with your big brother!" Cen Zhong raised the jug, signaling to meet Xiao Cheng.

Xiao Cheng raised the jug, but he didn't touch the pot with the other party, but said: "Senior brother wants to borrow troops, of course it's no problem, but brother, we will settle accounts, there are some things we have to talk about first, So as not to hurt the peace in time."

"Are you afraid that I, Liu Bei, will borrow Jingzhou and will I repay it?" Cen Zhong said.

"That's not true. Since I dare to lend troops to senior brothers, I'm naturally not afraid that they will betray me. To be honest, my military senior brothers cannot be pulled away." Xiao Chengcheng said sincerely.

Cen nodded his head: "Since you said that, I want to try it when the time comes. If you really get rid of it, don't blame me."

"Naturally not to blame!" Xiao Cheng said.

"Shuangli!" Cen Zhong said: "Of course I won't borrow troops from you for nothing. Junior brother, depending on your layout, the next step is Dali?"

"Senior brother has sharp eyes!" Xiao Cheng nodded. "You can see this too? Is my intention so obvious?"

"Along the way, I have been chatting with my father about your problems." Cen Zhong suppressed his smile and said, "At first I thought you were going to rebel, but with your current strength, if you rebel, the Southwest will be in chaos. Did you just help your elder brother? But beyond my expectation, you were able to hold your breath. Not only did you not retaliate, but you retreated behind the scenes. My father praised you very much, saying that you are a real scholar, What a scholar!"

"The master is absurd!" Xiao Cheng turned cold, and said, "I don't oppose it because I know that if I don't do these things, my brother will still gain a foothold in the north of Hengshan. I have done these things, and my brother's situation It won’t be any better. Instead, I lost my foothold in the Southwest. Brother, it seems that I am very strong now. In fact, this high-rise building is built on the beach. Once I really turn my back, Sizhoutian and Bozhouyang will leave me immediately, and those big merchants in the Qianzhou Commercial Federation will also leave me. Even if the army under their command is still loyal, there is no source of water, no tree without roots, and can How many days will it last?"

"That's the reason!" Cen nodded, "I really admire you for being so clear-headed. If I put myself in my shoes, I can roughly guess your next move. Strength, you need strong strength." In the territory of the Song Dynasty, it is naturally difficult for you to turn these strengths into your own, because the emperor of the Song Dynasty has been supporting scholars for hundreds of years, and it has been deeply rooted, and it is difficult to dig their corners, so depending on your layout, it is all about the court. There are places where it is not enough. For example, Qianzhou and these prefectures."

After taking a look at Xiao Cheng, Cui Zhong continued: "As long as you take down a place like Dali, it is very likely that you will take its original power as your own. In this way, you will have the capital to bargain with Bianliang. , it is no longer the sourceless water and rootless tree in your mouth."

Xiao Cheng lowered his head and took a sip of his wine without making a sound.

"Help me take Guangnan West Road completely, and when you attack Dali, I will do my best to support you." Cen Zhong said: "You want Dali, but I want to take Guangnan West Road and Guangnan East Road together." Into the bag, become Guangxi Road, what I want is not some shit recruiter, I want to be the appeasement envoy of Guangxi Road first!"

"Then it's all over the place!" Xiao Cheng said.

"Naturally, a real man should stand on top of the world!" Cen Zhong laughed.

"But even if you become the chief assistant, there is still an official above!" Xiao Cheng said.

Cen Zhong was slightly startled, and shook his head: "Then there is no way to do it. Speaking of which, Junior Brother, you don't really have the idea of ​​replacing him, do you? This, I'm afraid it will be difficult to reach the sky."

"What's the difference between me becoming an official and the current one?" Xiao Cheng said indifferently: "It's meaningless to change the soup but not the medicine."

Cen Zhong looked at Xiao Cheng firmly, and said after a long while: "Little brother, it's only natural that your eldest brother is unmatched in martial arts and bravery, but this way to the northwest, swallowing the Hengshan hall, driving Ding Li Xu, and invading the Qing Dynasty in Tubo." Tang, riding a horse to the Western Regions, such a plan, I am afraid he will not be able to do it, and it should be your handwriting. After writing the northwest, you ran to the southwest. It seems to be a hammer in the east and a mallet in the west, but you really need to study carefully. Get up, but there are traces to be found, what exactly do you want to do?"

Xiao Cheng raised the pot, drank less than half of the pot in one gulp, and when he looked up again, his eyes were already red.

"Eldest brother, I'm not going to hide it from you. It was indeed my plan, and of course my purpose was not to replace the Zhao family with the Xiao family." Xiao Cheng said, "It's just that I've been busy scheming others and laying down my plans." One game after another, but I never imagined that someone set up a small game in my big game, regardless of the outcome of the big game, but in the small game, I was defeated miserably, and the loss was a mess. It took the lives of parents and sisters into it."

"Who is plotting against you?" Cen Zhong took a deep breath: "Do you know?"

"There are Liao people, and of course there are people from our Great Song Dynasty." Xiao Cheng said: "The most painful thing for me is that they don't see through my situation, they are completely ignorant of my situation, but they can be sensitive I quickly discovered the changes in the current situation, so I took advantage of the situation to plan. I underestimated the world and did not take precautions, so I miscalculated and let my parents and sisters disappear. Originally, if I was more careful, I could not let this happen. of."

"Are you talking about Yelujun and Zhao Jing?" Cen Zhong pondered, "Among this series of events, it seems that both of them are winners."

"Yelujun, Lin Ping!" Xiao Cheng said, "Zhao Jing, Zhao Yuan."

"Yelujun is probably the next emperor of the Liao Kingdom. If there are no accidents, Zhao Jing should also be the next official family of the Song Dynasty. You two enemies are strong enough." Cen Zhong sighed, It is natural to think that Xiao Cheng basically has no hope of revenge.

However, Xiao Cheng sneered: "So, the world must be turned upside down, and the world must be changed, and the world must be rebuilt!"

"After you take down Dali, will you, like your elder brother, raise the flag to escape from the Song court and attack from the north to the south?" Cen Zhong asked cautiously.

Xiao Cheng laughed: "This painting has been ruined, it is already unsightly, senior brother, what do you think we should do?"

Cen Zhong pondered for a moment and said, "Naturally, I have to start the stove again, and draw on a piece of white paper again!"

Xiao Cheng nodded: "Naturally. I, I'm going to draw on a new piece of paper! Brother, don't you want to be the artist of this new work?"

"Of course I want to be!" Cen Zhong hesitated.

"That's enough, the rest, let's go and see! There are still many people who want to salvage this old work, but I just wait and watch!" Xiao Cheng stood up and said.

"What if these people are rescued by this old work?"

"I'm afraid they don't have the ability!" Xiao Cheng chuckled, "Even if there is a brilliant doctor to save a terminally ill guy, he will probably drink doves to quench his thirst, and it won't last long, not to mention that this doctor is still a doctor." Where are the two knives!"

"If this is really the case, the common people will be robbed!" Cen Zhong felt a little unbearable in his eyes.

"If you don't wash it, how can you come to a clean and peaceful new world!" Xiao Cheng said lightly: "Brother, one thousand elites and one general are enough for you to gain a firm foothold on Guangnan West Road, but if you want to really win Guangnan Nanxi Road, but you have to rely on yourself."

"Enough!" Cen nodded.

The two jugs collided heavily, Xiao Cheng raised the jug and drank wildly, and Cen Zhong beside him did the same.

Unknowingly, it was the dawn of the eastern morning, and the conversation between the two of them took place all night.

Throwing away the flagon in his hand, looking at the rising sun on the mountain in the distance, Xiao Cheng opened his arms and roared loudly: "Up and up, up and down, up to the high mountain."

Cen Zhong, who heard Xiao Cheng's chanting, originally looked expectant, but after hearing these two sentences, he couldn't help but look at Xiao Cheng who was wild and unrestrained.

"Raise your head up and the sun is low to the clouds, and the river and the sky are all in sight."

Two more sentences came out, but they hit Cen Zhong's heart like a heavy hammer.

Cen Zhong stayed in Bangzhou for ten days before leaving.

Xiao Cheng asked Wei Wu to enter Guangnan West Road with a thousand elite soldiers.

This elder brother, I'm afraid it won't take long for him to fully grasp Guangnan West Road. As Cen Zhong said, there are many official bugs on Guangnan West Road.Xiao Cheng didn't like to use force directly, because that would almost be tantamount to rebellion, but with Cen Zhong as recruiter, it was justifiable to attack those local forces.

Of course, this elder brother is not an ordinary person, and it is really uncertain whether he will be a help or a hindrance at that time.

Mr. Cen stayed in Bangzhou, saying that although he no longer accepts his own disciples, he still wants to be an enlightener in this place of alienation in his rare years.

Of course Xiao Cheng knew the true meaning in Master's heart, but he just laughed it off.

The master is old, so he can do whatever he wants, as long as he is happy.
