Promotion and fortune in Song Dynasty

When Di Qing's mind was floating, Teng Zongliang had already blushed and had a thick neck with Zhang Kang, and he almost rolled up his sleeves.

"It's clear that you are eager for quick success, yet you dare to involve Jiedu in it!" Teng Zongliang said angrily, "Who doesn't know that the imperial court is about to send envoys to Tubo to discuss with Wen Buqi how to control the party? If this matter of yours is revealed, Wen Buqi will definitely be provoked." Qi was furious, and if it was not allowed, he would go back to help the party members, and the envoy’s life would not be guaranteed! Such a terrible event, but you have made your own decisions, and you have to kill the festival first, and then play it, you really have evil intentions, and you are extremely selfish!"

Zhang Kang has always been hindered by Teng Zongliang's status, although he was tit for tat when answering, his attitude was still respectful.Hearing these heartbreaking words, he couldn't help it anymore, stood up and retorted generously: "Teng Tong judged such slander, I can't be an official! It's human nature to be eager to make contributions, but I don't hesitate to make this plan. Taking great risks to go to the dangerous place in person is not only for his own future and selfishness, but also for the long-term stability of the Song Dynasty! Wen Buqi is powerful, has a large number of soldiers, and has always relied on praise and righteousness to make the group heroes , I didn’t ask the Song Dynasty, but the Song Dynasty needed him to watch from the sidelines. If we continue to let it go, the unification of Tubo is just around the corner. At that time, the cavalry of millions of heroes, can I, the Song Dynasty, be able to stop it?! It’s better to march with soldiers Dangerously, showing kindness to the beleaguered Zanpu and establishing an alliance is far more stable than the weak relationship between the envoy and Wen Buqi! Of course, there is a price to be paid for this, but compared to the need to Teng Tongpan's worries about the countless gifts of money and silk given to Wen Buqi really seem insignificant!"

Teng Zongliang was amused: "The temple hasn't even dispatched an envoy, but you have even counted the gold, silver, and silk that you need to send. Listening to your tone, you are filled with righteous indignation as if you have seen it with your own eyes. It is really absurd! The most urgent thing right now is to unite Tubo, the scourge of party control, must seek stability and speed, and no extra problems are allowed. As for Tubo, the eagle sees the wolf, you need to think long-term, and you have your own official ruling, and it is not your turn to do it for you, and rely on chaos to worry about it in advance! Your so-called stability is just a Zanpu who has been imprisoned for many years, has never met, and has no known appearance!"

Seeing that the two were getting more and more excited, the smell of gunpowder was getting stronger, and both sides even rolled up their sleeves, looking like they were about to fight, Lu Ci coughed lightly, and made a smooth settlement in time: "Brother Teng is worried, Gu Du It's reasonable. But please rest assured, Brother Teng. Before I dared to let Gongshou lead this matter, I quickly passed it on to the official family and got the official charter to make it. Moreover, Tubo and Dangxiang have been enemies for many years, and they have been eyeing each other. , but will take advantage of the fire to rob."

Of course he had to stop it in time: As far as the physical gap between the two was concerned, Teng Zongliang would not be a match for the tall and powerful Zhang Kang.

What Lu Ci didn't say, which made him feel so at ease, was naturally his other secret works buried in Tubo.

With Guo Li's bright spot, even if it is accidentally exposed, it will create more breakthroughs for his other troops.

I was used to more intense quarrels in Beijing, so I didn't take this battle seriously, so Zhu said, who also kept silent, and nodded quickly when he heard the words: "What Lu Jiedu said is very true."

He thinks that both sides are reasonable, but if he really had to choose, he would still choose Zhang Kang's approach, which is not too risky but extremely rewarding.

But if he agrees in person like this, it will be too disrespectful to Brother Teng, and it will easily make him ashamed and annoyed, and hurt everyone's harmony.

It would be more appropriate to wait for Brother Lu to speak.

And just as Zhu said, before the situation got out of control, Brother Lu made a decisive move and ended the verbal war with ease.

Lu Ci turned his head to the side first, blinked at Teng Zongliang who was still furious, then gave Zhang Kang a comforting look, and said gently: "Go on, Gongshou."

"Yes."

Zhang Kang glanced at Teng Zongliang, and swallowed the thorny sentence "Teng Tong has served in Qinzhou for many years, why is he still not clear about the old grievances between Tubo and Dangxiang?" He only pursed his lips, and was about to continue said.

After Teng Zongliang listened to Lu Ci's words, although his face softened a bit, he was almost pissed off by the stubborn and stubborn Zhang Kang.

According to what he said in the past, his way of doing things on a whim from time to time can be called deviant.

But ever since he defected to Lu Ci and came to Qinzhou, he felt that his head had been hurting for a day - Ci's younger brother was much bolder than him in doing things, which made him feel scared every day. After several years of working together, he finally did it. Gradually calm down.

This calmness, in the final analysis, is based on Cidi's good 'record': it seems thrilling, but because of his courage and boldness, with the support of a little emperor behind him, he has become as stable as Mount Tai.

Zhang Kang didn't have this ability, and he didn't have a disciple of the emperor who was willing to rely heavily on him to stand up to him, so why did he use his two mouths to force his younger brother to do such a dangerous thing?

The more Teng Zongliang thought about it, the more angry he became.

Counting the days, it must be the day when he took Di Zhu to follow Di Di: At that time, he saw that the two had a happy conversation in the teahouse, and he was only concerned with taking a sour breath, but neglected the main point, so he didn't ask the two of them. What was agreed upon!

What's more, Zhang Kang made Cidi even hide it from them, it's like being drugged with drug soup!

Glancing at Zhang Kang, who was still plausible at this moment, and didn't realize that he was wrong in persuading Lu Ci to take the risk with him, Teng Zongliang secretly gritted his teeth.

He didn't notice it himself, and the gaze he cast on the other party became more and more unfriendly, as if he was looking at a witch who was a disaster for the country.

It's a pity that because this demon girl who caused disaster to the country was born too big and three rough, he stared at the other party's rough eyebrows for a long time, and couldn't get into the play at all.

To be honest, the "charmed" Jiedu is more suitable for this role.

Teng Zongliang reluctantly gave up the calculation.

Di Qing, who had always felt dizzy and distracted, quietly regained his senses at this time.

——When did the quarrel end?

After subconsciously asking this question in his mind, Di Qingdun felt a burst of guilt.

The grandfather deliberately promoted him, let him be influenced by his ears and eyes, and learn more practical experience, so he deliberately let him sit in this kind of place over and over again.

But he couldn't put all his mind on the business, he just peeked at Gongzu uncontrollably, he was really sorry for his kindness.

The following is not an example.

But while Di Qing swears, he also believes from the bottom of his heart that this seat is really...too unsuitable and can't stand the temptation. He always feels silent, joyful and heart-beating every time his eyes meet unexpectedly. up.

When Zhang Kang finally finished speaking, although Lu Ci had already heard a more complete one, he still applauded the ground, smiled and stroked his hands, boasting: "Gongshou dared to go deep into the enemy's rear alone this time, he is really brave and wise, which is admirable. "

Teng Zongliang curled his lips, but did not speak.

Although Zhang Kang was proud in his heart, he still bowed his head in embarrassment: "The festival is too famous."

Zhu said also sincerely: "Gongshou is not only courageous and resourceful, but also full of courage."

What he was referring to was Zhang Kang's unequivocal transition from literature to martial arts.

I can do it too, Di Qing secretly thought.

Lu Ci said casually with a smile: "I originally thought that if I had to go to Gongshou and could not win the trust of Mrs. Guo, I would spend a month working hard to go to Tubo with you to facilitate this matter. Now it's done once and for all. , save the effort.”

Everyone turned pale with shock, Zhang Kang was the first to object: "This is absolutely impossible."

Lu Ci was unconvinced now: "Why can't I do it? I was also scolding Fang Qiu when I was physically strong." At this moment, everyone glanced at him, "Over the years, I have also had many people who have traveled far and wide. In terms of experience, even compared to you, I can speak Tibetan dialect fluently, just based on this alone, it is more like a businessman who has traveled back and forth between Tibet and the Central Plains for a long time."

Teng Zongliang's face was twitching wildly, and he couldn't help tearing down the stage: "Before you say this, you can look in the mirror first. Is there still such a thin-skinned and tender merchant in the world?"

Lu Ci said bluntly: "There are many wonders in the world. I just have a fairer complexion. Haven't you seen a businessman who can't get tanned? I can see it much more."

Everyone thought to themselves, I have seen it before, but it is really unique to be able to be made of jade like you, without even the slightest flaw.

Zhu Shuo, who had always faithfully admired Lu Ci and agreed with almost all his views, chose to remain friendly and silent at this moment.

Di Qing's expression was subtle, and he wisely stopped talking.

Zhang Kang was quiet for a moment, and said tactfully: "The road is difficult and dangerous, and there are countless villains. Even Su Ma Guotou, who has been in that business road for many years and has led hundreds of horses, dare not say that he will return safely every time he goes out, and every day he will go to the house. I have to carry countless heavy loads... I am born with such a stature, doing those rough and hard jobs, and occasionally feel strenuous, it is really not suitable for me to take risks."

In all fairness, Lu Jiedu can be said to have slender limbs and well-proportioned flesh and bones, which is very pleasing to the eye, but in Zhang Kang's eyes, he is just the standard thin arms and thin legs, which can be broken if he exerts his strength, and he can't do heavy work at all.

Although it's just a hypothesis, now that it's discussed.Lu Ci was also very truthful.

After hearing Zhang Kang's words, he said disapprovingly, "Even if I don't go with the horse caravan, I can go with other caravans. I am indeed no stronger than you, and I can't do the rough work of moving goods, but I can pretend to be the accountant. To tell you the truth Said, because my mother also runs some small businesses, I did all the accounting at the beginning, so I know how to settle accounts."

It's just that the method of calculating accounts needs to learn the four arithmetic operations and Arabic numerals, which is too complicated for other accountants who stick to the rules, but is disgusted by Lu's mother... Lu Ci chooses to forget this point.

Zhang Kang was at a loss for words, and continued for a while, "Jiedu once defeated [-] Tubo soldiers, and I know that Qinzhou has lasted for nearly three years. I know Jiedu, and the Tubo people who fear or hate Jiedu are afraid. There are not a few."

Even if you don't recognize him, this appearance is too good-looking, it is easy to impress people, and arouse suspicion.

And is that the point?

The point is of course not just this!

Zhang Kang swallowed hard. Under such a situation where there was really no other way, he was afraid that Lu Jiedu would do something similar in the future, and he would be blamed on his forehead, so he bit the bullet and told the truth: "Besides Jiedu looks so handsome, it is not safe to walk on the street. What if the caravan encounters a domineering Tubo noblewoman, who will take advantage of the crowd and take Jiedu away in the street, then I will stop it No, but you really have to hit your head to death."

Lu Ci: "..." This picture is so hateful!

The people who had been afraid to make a sound all this time watched silently in amazement. Their friend, who was as cunning as a fox and almost never suffered a loss, was swollen by Zhang Kang's helpless truth for the first time.
