Chapter 39 The Prophet ([-]nd update today)

After a few words of entertainment at the moment, I took my leave.Go back to the stronghold.Shopkeeper Sun of Qiwei Escort has been waiting for a long time.Before he could bow his hands to thank him, shopkeeper Sun had already bowed his hands to congratulate him.Xiao Zishan spent 100 taels of silver as a thank you gift.

"The shopkeepers are really all-rounders of cultural relics!" Shopkeeper Sun took the silver and smiled like a flower, "Good skills, such sharp firearms! My apprentices and nephews all said when they came back, they saw the ticket savers, I have never seen such a clean rescue."

"It wasn't for the help of the dignified officials, we people from other places are probably still blind."

"Wherever it is, it's just a little bit of power." Shopkeeper Sun handed over the money to the young apprentice behind him, "I have a word, please consider it."

"Good to say."

"Although the ticket rescue went well this time, the gangsters here have already been here and are familiar with the way. We must prevent them from retaliating. As the saying goes: One day is a thief, but there is no one who can guard against a thief for a thousand days. There are a lot of wealth here, gentlemen. Don’t do it carelessly.”

Xiao Zishan couldn't figure out what he meant, he had been fooled by Gao Hu just now, and seeing Shopkeeper Sun smiling like a fox at this moment.He remained alert without saying a word.

Shopkeeper Sun saw that he didn't answer, so he had no choice but to cut straight to the point, meaning that the Qiwei Escort Bureau was willing to guard the house at night, that is, to act as a night shift security guard.In addition to sitting in the shop, this is the most important business of the Escort in the city.

Being on night duty is not a nursing home, the Escort Bureau doesn't care about the daytime affairs.Only at the beginning of the day, when all the rooms and courtyards in the mansion were turned off and the lamps were turned off, did the bodyguards enter the courtyard to patrol.

"If the shopkeepers feel that it is not convenient enough. You can buy a few servants, and we will train a few good hands for the shopkeepers to come out as personal guards."

It turned out to be selling security services.Xiao Zishan thought it would be better not to guard the house at night, there are too many secrets in this house, and the bodyguards are all shrewd and capable people, after a long time, it is inevitable that they will find out the clues.As for coaching a few guards, it is useful, but it is inconvenient for him to make decisions about these matters.

But the line of Qiwei Escort, the executive committee decided to make full use of it.Right now they have only one agent to hold high.Social contacts are too narrow.In contrast, Escort is an industry that makes friends with all levels of society, from high-ranking officials and dignitaries to bandits and gangsters, they are all familiar with and can make friends with each other.It will be convenient to carry out work after traveling through the days.

Compared with other industries and social classes, Escort employees are people with the most traditional martial arts virtues, and they value trust and righteousness.Once it can be used for me, it will be a reliable helper.

If I want people to use me, I have to be kind.However, the dignitaries of the Escort are different from ordinary people. Although they "point spring" and "make friends" with the bandits for the sake of the rice millet—that's just to eat this bowl of rice.In fact, making friends is very cautious.It's not enough to try to gain goodwill by being generous. Maybe you can get the name of "Yangzi" and make them look down on them.

Fortunately, China has always been a society of human relations, a patriarchal society, and the relationship between relatives, clans, masters and apprentices is the closest, and it is easier to start with this.

Xiao Zishan said according to the routine discussed by the executive committee: "Sun Chang has contributed a lot this time, and we have discussed and let him be expelled."

"This is a great grace." Shopkeeper Sun stood up and gave a deep salute—although it is not necessarily a good thing for a slave to quit his citizenship, especially if he does not go to the master's house after quitting and refuses to take him in, it is simply a dead end— — But no matter what, Sun Chang is both his clan nephew and his master nephew, and he is a slave, so he, an uncle of his generation, is also shameless.

"He also earned this grace himself." He deliberately cast a glance at Gao Xian who was serving tea at the side. "Master is in trouble, and he is not afraid of trouble. If he is willing to show his strength, naturally he can't treat him badly."

He went on to say: "Sun Chang's slavery will be taken off immediately, but he is faithful and available. If he is willing, we will still let him do things."

"Sun Chang, you should praise me a lot." Shopkeeper Sun showed excitement.Even if the Escort Bureau's business is good, adding a bodyguard like him is nothing more than spending a lifetime traveling all over the world to protect bodyguards.If he can stay under the hands of the shopkeepers in Australia, his future prospects will be much better than being a bodyguard.

"In the future, he will run around on business, and you, the elder, will need to take care of him."

"Naturally," Shopkeeper Sun patted his chest in a hurry, "What the shopkeepers have told you is a matter of arrogance. We must do our best."

Well, it's a bit interesting, as expected, the family's affairs are more dedicated.

He motioned Gao Xian to leave.Then he continued: "There is also Brother Gao. You have seen it, a boy servant here. Ask him to inquire about all kinds of news in the market. He is very clever and clever. But I am worried that he is too young and will not be able to use it for a long time. It's easy to learn badly by haunting the market, and it's easy for him to suffer if he doesn't have kung fu. Please teach him well. Although the escort bureau has a lot of friends between black and white, it's rare to be honest and not evil. Let it be in your hands, we rest assured."

"The shopkeeper is overwhelmed." Shopkeeper Sun was full of energy, and the shopkeepers in Australia really looked down on us men.

Xiao Zishan saw that the fire was almost over, so he didn't say much more, and the two sides parted ways after a few perfunctory words.

Xiao Zishan went back that night and reported the situation to the executive committee.Whether to let the high credit account arouse controversy, whether it is agreed or opposed, there are very good reasons, and neither side can convince the other for a while.

Yu Eshui's speech came from a thought.

"What month is it over there?"

"April thirty."

"It's April [-]th in the seventh year of the Apocalypse." Yu Eshui nodded, "Eighteen days later, Emperor Xizong will go to Xiyuan to have fun after offering sacrifices to Fangzetan, but the wind blows the boat and falls into the water. Although he was rescued by Tan Jing, But the body just went from bad to worse."

"He didn't die until August. Could it be that Gao Ju delayed the construction of the Shengsheng Temple until August? I'm afraid you can't let him have the courage to wait for the emperor to die." Those who responded quickly understood his intention. train of thought.

"Hehe, you underestimate the bureaucrat's sensitivity to political trends." Yu Eshui said, "Why does Wei Zhongxian become [-] years old? Isn't it because of the emperor's favor for him? It depends on the life and death of Emperor Xizong. Tianqi itself is not in good health, and has not recovered after falling into the water this time. Once the emperor dies, King Xin must ascend the throne. Even if Wei Zhongxian does not fall, it is impossible to exercise power like the Tianqi Dynasty. We will not rush to express our position when the situation is unknown.

"Since this Eunuch Yang is not in Wei Zhongxian's party, he just wants to take this opportunity to please him. If the situation suddenly becomes unclear, he may be the first to postpone the matter. If he doesn't go out and build a shrine, it means maintaining the status quo ; Built, in case the emperor dies, the new ruler will almost always have to reverse the situation, isn't he just making things difficult for himself?"

"Could it be that Wei Zhongxian just watched King Xin ascend the throne? We know that after the apocalypse it will be Chongzhen, but those bureaucrats don't know."

"Apocalypse has no heirs, of course it can only pass on to brothers." Someone explained.

"Actually, Tianqi had three sons, but they were all minors. According to historical records and research by modern historians, the prince was probably killed by Wei and Ke. By the seventh year of Tianqi, his youngest son had already died. I have been mourned for two years. Once the emperor is sick, the only person who can pass on the throne is the brother who believes in the king.

"Although Tianqi is incompetent, he pays attention to friendship with his queen Zhang and his fifth younger brother Youjian. Wei Zhongxian once tried to create a big case, framed the queen's father Zhang Guoji's conspiracy to establish the king of faith, and thus attacked dissidents. The eunuch Wang Tiqian, the eunuch of the ceremonies, knew the emperor He tried his best to persuade: "My lord, everything is condescending, and the only brother and his wife are not thin. If something happens, we will die." Wei Zhongxian was shocked when he heard this, and quickly canceled the plan. It can be seen that Emperor Xizong's respect for the queen and the king of Xin Everyone knows the trust. Unless Tianqi has another heir, the emperor will die, and the succession of the king is a certainty. The bureaucrats are very clear."

"When the emperor gets sick, Wei Zhongxian, a blue-chip stock in the Daming stock market, will be in jeopardy, and Xinwang, a potential stock, will naturally be favored by everyone. At this time, some people will buy in large quantities. Maybe tomorrow it will fall below the issue price or even simply buy it. Is it a suspended stock?"

"Then I'll tell Gao Ju to delay past May [-]?"

"The news is not so fast, is it? It will take about ten days for the news from Beijing to reach Guangzhou at the earliest. Why don't you tell him to wait until the end of May to see the outcome."

"Hehe, although I don't agree with pretending to be ghosts, I think that in this matter, it is possible to show a small amount of predictive ability-it is clear that the situation will change on May [-]. Predicting the future is very important for anyone. There is a strong temptation, not to mention predicting such a major change in the court situation. Once the seal is verified, the lethality is very great. Although it will not make others turn their heads and worship as a younger brother, it can also fully increase the atmosphere that we obey the destiny. "Yu Eshui said with a smile.

This solution is not only peculiar, but also greatly satisfies the hobby of the traversers acting as "prophets".For a while, someone suggested that Yu Eshui should act as a "prophet" to have an interview with Gao Ju and Young Eunuch Yang, and someone else simply suggested that Yu Eshui go to Beijing to find Cao Huachun. Those who use modern technology and ideas can directly transform the emperor and bring China into a democratic, harmonious and developed Ming Dynasty...

Yu Eshui immediately lost his appetite: Do these people think Dongchang and Jin Yiwei are the ears of the deaf?It would be strange not to be caught in the imperial prison immediately to taste the torture of the father-in-law for such "monster words" that lie about the life and death of the emperor.Even if Cao Huachun is willing to listen to such crazy words, the king of Xin will be hiding his strength and bide his time, and even his close servants don't see him very much, what kind of "prophet" is there!If this decision is really going to be made, whoever wants to be a prophet will go, and he will not join in the fun.

Fortunately, there are not many hotheads, and this whimsical resolution was not passed.Only then did Yu Eshui come up with some detailed ideas: If you don't speak too clearly, lest you frighten Gao Jia, fear will cause many unexpected things.Just say that there must be big changes on May [-]th.And you can't say that you know it yourself, if you say that someone watches the sky at night, it will be cloudy and foggy anyway.

"One thing to remember, don't say that Wei Zhongxian will fall or when the emperor will die. If such a matter is so important, Gao Ju will definitely tell Young Eunuch Yang. With the nature of these people, they will not do meritorious deeds just to avoid disaster. Report and arrest you immediately!" Yu Eshui finally emphasized to them.
