Fish swimming around the world

Ji Zongyi smacked his lips: "This is the second reason for demonstrations, which is usually to combat the opponent's arrogance. What is Taiyue so arrogant about? Of course it's too radical. You kid, you saw their movements, but to Qin If the country is not in a good position, of course we must suppress it, and the best way is to use troops, but when we can't really fight a war, using Qin Wang as an excuse is really wonderful."

Jiang Fan couldn't help but raise his thumb: "As expected of me."

Ji Zongyi laughed heartily. He was admired by his son. There was nothing sick about his face. He was clearly a vigorous and heroic man in his prime.

"Of course, at the same time, you are also intimidating the people who participated in this attack. Of course, you want benefits by beating them, and they want to give it, because they can cheat on you, and you can naturally cheat on them. And you, it seems, have never failed. They failed."

"I wonder what Third Uncle and Feng Xiaoniao are thinking at this moment." Jiang Fan raised the corner of his mouth.

"Feng Xiaoniao, you know it yourself, but your third uncle, your father, knows it. He can't sit still."

Jiang Fan thought deeply: "My father is saying that he will finally..."

Ji Zongyi nodded: "Your imperial grandfather gave me the power to supervise the country, but gave him the most powerful army in the imperial court. The effect is a bit like when you were in Jin Dynasty, you first let Sima Ji get the military power."

Jiang Fan's face darkened: "Grandfather, is it possible that you are also playing tricks on building plank roads to seduce Chen Cang secretly?"

Ji Zongyi was stunned. Jiang Fan hurriedly explained what he meant. Ji Zongyi nodded: "It's interesting. Your boy's military skills are indeed unparalleled. After all, it is similar to the Qianlong Plan. I think the one my father really wants to support is your third uncle."

"What does he have?" Jiang Fan felt a little confused.

Ji Zongyi sighed: "Do you know what the Imperial Court lacks most? Or what is the most fundamental problem of the Imperial Court today?"

Jiang Fan suddenly fell into deep thought and said after a long time: "Real power."

Ji Zongyi nodded with satisfaction: "Well said, it is real power, and my father heard that your boy said that the truth is only within the range of a bow and arrow, and I deeply agree. Why did Da Zhou lose his control? It was probably due to lack of control. Army. After years of chaos, in order to quell the war, the imperial court randomly enfeoffed people everywhere, resulting in no direct territory and subjects, and no way to support the army. To this day, there is only one fighting force of the Dragon Guard, but the number is scarce and the strength is seriously insufficient. , How to deter all parties, but in any case, this is the last actual combat power of the imperial court."

Jiang Fan said slowly: "Father, the only Dragon Guard is in the hands of the third uncle."

Ji Zongyi nodded: "I have three brothers. My second brother and I are from the same mother. Only the third brother was born to my father's favorite concubine. This concubine's biological father is Long Shuai."

Jiang Fan breathed a sigh of relief. He knew about this, so he guessed this aspect at once.

"Because of this, except for your half-senior brother Zhong Houde and your great-uncle who can no longer interfere in the government affairs, 80% of the other powerful officials in the imperial court support the King of England."

Jiang Fan sighed secretly, it seems that the cheap daddy is really unable to do anything alone.

"So, your foreign aid came at the right time."

"Killing two birds with one stone, what do you think, father?"

Ji Zongyi raised his eyes and looked at him: "Killing two birds with one stone? That would be looking down on my son. He is the King of Qin. There is also a bird."

"Oh? Where is this bird?"

"Pah!" Ji Zongyi slapped the table and glared: "Look at how your father and I look like an old bird!"

"Ah, haha ​​- Dad, calm down, calm down." Jiang Fan quickly smiled and poured wine.

Ji Zongyi hummed: "The boy's wings are strong, he can support daddy."

Jiang Fan knew that many things could not be hidden from him, but he did not expect that he could see them so clearly.

"Dad, they are radical and I suppress them, but you are radical and they cannot suppress you. People say that in the first thirty years, it is the father who respects the son, and in the next thirty years, it is the son who respects the father. Although the sons and ministers are still weak, I can't see my father being squeezed. ”

Ji Zongyi curled his lips: "So, you brought in two major forces to give your father and me a good reputation?"

"I mean." Jiang Fan chuckled.

"You bastard! But..." Ji Zongyi also chuckled: "I am very satisfied. I am very satisfied with the Yuzhou Army. I didn't take the old bastard in my eyes. Instead, I paid homage to my father. Didn't you see? He has such a stinky face, I guess he has never been so embarrassed in his life, haha.”

Jiang Fan was also very happy. Indeed, this was what he meant. Although he could not help Ji Zongyi explicitly, it would be good to take this opportunity and use his status as an imperial court official to make Ji Zongyi look good and let some people weigh it.

"And my wife there, that's interesting!" Ji Zongyi seemed even more satisfied when talking about this.

"However, I was still a little impulsive and actually dared to break through the gate of Taiyue Mountain."

Jiang Fan chuckled: "Then you have wronged her. Although she is domineering, she is never impulsive and does things carefully. Many times, I cannot see her thoughts."

Ji Zongyi nodded: "Boy, this daughter-in-law is not easy to handle. As a father, she has begun to take shape. Don't steal the chicken but lose the rice, and end up paying for yourself."

Jiang Fan scratched his head: "Don't worry, your son, I am the best at Tao Zhu. I will not do the business at a loss."

"That's good, that's good."

Ji Zongyi said he was happy and actually filled a cup for Jiang Fan himself.

"After that, if you implement your ideas and decrees, at least Qin, Yuzhou, and Jin will buy face. This is external influence."

Ji Zongyi said: "Yes, but you and I need to make them feel that we are using each other."

"I understand, so later, my father wants to come up with some decent rewards and show them to outsiders. You have to lend me my help."

Ji Zongyi snapped his fingers: "You don't need to tell me, I have already prepared it for you."

Jiang Fan rubbed his hands and said eagerly: "I know that when the Crown Prince comes to visit his ministers, he always brings some condolences. Are you willing to hear the details?"

Ji Zongyi glared at him: "Get out! Why are you so anxious? You will know after a while."

Jiang Fan had no choice but to laugh dryly: "Okay, don't worry. The third thing, what dad said is right, is to cooperate inside and outside, build momentum, and share the benefits."

Ji Zongyi was very satisfied: "When it comes to sharing benefits, in Jin State, you have played a good game."

"In ancient times, there were vertical and horizontal alliances, and today there are cross-border alliances. They are just seasonal measures."

Ji Zongyi nodded: "Sima Ji is just hungry, so make good use of this chess piece. However, this piece is sinister and calm by nature and is not easy to control. You must also be careful not to be manipulated by him. Don't think that if you support him, he will Reciprocate sincerely, and those in power are all thinking about their own interests.”

"I understand, I understand." Jiang Fan nodded repeatedly.

"But..." Ji Zongyi looked at him with confused eyes: "As a father, I don't understand. Is there a fourth child in your family?"

Jiang Fan suddenly narrowed his eyes and pinched his chin: "...Yes, or not..."

"Stop arguing with me and deal with the truth!"
