Jiang Pengji was very straightforward, or perhaps it could be said that she was too straightforward.
She divided the whole world according to interests, but Han Yu couldn't refute her.
Suddenly, a terrible idea came to Han Yu's mind.
He made a very bold assumption.
"Is it really impossible for the gentry to completely dominate the poor?"
Jiang Pengji smiled. "Of course there is."
"There is?"
Han Yu's heart skipped a beat. He didn't want to listen anymore. He was afraid that Jiang Pengji's words would release the most terrible beast in his heart.
"Of course there is. It is to fool the people with religious beliefs. Once their minds are controlled, they will be a group of pigs with no sense of resistance, not people with rebellious bones. " Jiang Pengji shrugged inelegantly and looked disdainful. "Tens of millions of rebellious commoners are not easy to control, but tens of millions of brainless pigs are easy to raise. However, if you really do that, you will be a sinner for all eternity. "
Han Yu shuddered and looked at Jiang Pengji in horror.
He secretly wiped the cold sweat off his forehead. Fortunately, the person in front of him had a clear mind, or it would be too scary.
"The gentry want to monopolize the benefits, but they don't know how risky it is. I will not be as stupid as them." Jiang Pengji snorted coldly. "It is true that there are many benefits if the nobles can get the support of the gentry, but there is no such thing as a free lunch. If you take benefits from them, you should spit out more benefits to satisfy them. I don't want to be told what to do and be controlled by others. "
Han Yu said, "I thought that my lord was rebelling by starting your own family, but now I know that there is great wisdom behind it."
Jiang Pengji said shamelessly, "It is just a little trick. It is not worth mentioning."
Han Yu was speechless.
You are so arrogant after a few words of praise.
They talked for a while and the topic returned to Cheng Xun.
"On the other hand, I feel sorry for Gong Liao and Mister Wen Fu. Cheng Xun left with his old master, and although he managed to preserve his good name, I don't know how long it will take for his family members to recover from the grief of his passing." Jiang Pengji didn't have a bad impression of him. After all, she had never met him. She didn't like him or hate him. "It is said that Cheng Xun has a wife and children. What a sin."
Han Yu looked at Jiang Pengji strangely, as if Jiang Pengji was the strange one.
"Why are you looking at me?"
Han Yu said, "My lord is kind."
Jiang Pengji said, "I don't believe you. I feel like there's more to it than meets the eye."
Han Yu said helplessly, "My lord, you have read a lot of books. Do you know that there is a saying that goes, 'Brothers are like hands and feet, and wives are like clothes? If the clothes are torn, they can still be sewn; if the hands and feet are broken, they can still be continued'? Gong Luo trusted you and was willing to sacrifice himself to fulfill his loyalty. How could he live for his wife and daughter? "
Jiang Pengji was upset.
I didn't expect you, Han Wenbin, to be such a scum.
"You think I'm right?"
"I beg to differ," Han Yu said. "His wife and daughter are also his blood relatives, not to mention that Gong Luo's parents are still alive."
Jiang Pengji said, "Wenbin has a strong desire to live."
Han Yu didn't understand.
He was right to be confused.
Jiang Pengji had a way with words. How could he, who was in ancient times, keep up with her?
This pair of newly minted ministers' had a pleasant conversation ', and in the eyes of outsiders, they seemed to be on good terms.
Only the two of them knew how it felt.
Wei Ci was relieved when he saw Han Yu appear behind Jiang Pengji. At the same time, he felt that he had expected it.
No matter in the previous life or this life, Han Yu was destined to be under the lord's command.
He sincerely hoped that the two of them could have a good ending in this life. Han Yu didn't have to end his life by swallowing gold and write a ten-thousand-word letter of apology before he died. Wei Ci didn't see the contents of the letter, but Han Yu also wrote a letter to his old friend before he committed suicide. Wei Ci understood most of the twists and turns in the letter. At that time, the Emperor was seriously ill. However, the political situation was not stable. She had to deal with the government affairs even though she was ill. She didn't dare to relax for even a moment. Although Han Yu's suicide was for the Emperor's good, it was also a huge blow to the Emperor.
Han Yu's wife was born in a noble family. She was intimate with her mother's family behind Han Yu's back and conspired against the Emperor. …
Han Yu stayed in the government office all year round to revise and compile laws. Sometimes, he would go on business trips to collect case files from various places.
As a middle-aged man who didn't stay at home all year round, Han Yu didn't pay attention to what was going on in the backyard.
After the rebellion failed, Fu Wang led the troops to raid the residences of the offending officials. Han Yu was also involved because of his wife.
Han Yu didn't participate in it, but his wife used his name and some of her connections. She couldn't wash herself clean even if she jumped into the river of motherhood.
The Emperor wanted to protect Han Yu, but Han Yu wrote a letter of apology at home. He admitted his crime and committed suicide by swallowing gold.
Why did he do that?
Because the Emperor protected Han Yu. She couldn't deal with the other offending officials with confidence. She was really afraid of hurting the innocent.
Han Yu admitted his crime and swallowed gold in order to let the Emperor do whatever he wanted. If he was going to die, he would drag a lot of people with him.
Alas …
Wei Ci sighed. Han Yu's voice drifted into his ears.
"Zixiao, I haven't seen you for years. You've grown up."
Wei Ci said readily, "Not as good as Wenbin."
Han Yu snorted. His sarcasm was regarded as a compliment by Wei Ci.
"Aren't you afraid that I will really get angry?" Han Yu said, "I rarely discuss with others. You are one of them."
It wasn't the first time that Wei Ci betrayed his good friend. But it was the first time that someone came to his door. He was a little embarrassed.
"My lord is very good. Wenbin will approve of her no matter what I say."
Wei Ci was gentle and he quickly smoothed things over.
In his previous life, the Emperor took down Han Yu without Wei Ci's help. He even made Han Yu loyal to the Emperor.
Otherwise, why would Han Yu commit suicide by swallowing gold?
Because a gentleman would die for his bosom friend!
Han Yu was speechless.
He had finally seen the power of a brainless fan.
But …
Han Yu nodded. "She is indeed very good."
Wei Ci agreed.
The two talked in a low voice. As they chatted, Wei Ci changed the topic to his family.
Wei Ci mocked himself for being alone at the age of 30. At the same time, he complimented Han Yu for having a beautiful wife and a son and a daughter.
Han Yu didn't think there was anything wrong with the topic. Wei Ci soon got the information he wanted.
His heart sank. Han Yu caught the emotion that flashed in his eyes.
Han Yu asked, "Is there something wrong?"
After all, they were from the same sect. Han Yu naturally knew that Wei Ci was a fraud.
The key was that this fraud was not a liar who talked nonsense. He was a real talent.
Wei Ci said, "There is something wrong with my sister-in-law. It's not a big problem. It's just …"
Han Yu asked, "What's wrong?"
Wei Ci said, "Be careful of your wife's family.
He had learned physiognomy and showed it to Han Yu in his previous life.
But at that time, he was confused. He vaguely noticed that Han Yu would do something bad, but he didn't know why.
In this life, he saw it clearly. Of course, he had to remind Han Yu.
Han Yu frowned. He turned to Jiang Pengji, but he didn't think about his wife's family.
But …
"Is it a big problem?"
Wei Ci said, "It concerns your family's life. One mistake and you will die. It's never a bad thing to be careful. "
