Several young people looked embarrassed and asked: "Can't he even compare with Zheng Guanyu? He is known as the shame of all aristocratic families."

Everyone sighed and said, "Zheng Guanyu has a mind as big as the sea, and he is the number one among the six young masters."

Several young men twitched their faces and couldn't help but said: "How do we compare to Wang Lingyun? This young man only knows how to write and write."

Everyone smiled bitterly and shook their heads, saying: "That's just an appearance. Anyone who believes it will suffer a loss. Wang Lingyun is ruthless and the most decisive among the six young masters."

"How is that better than Cui Zhai?" Several young people refused to admit defeat.

As a result, the elders of the family sighed even more and said bitterly: "Cui Zhai has the ability to take charge of the overall situation. Even our older generation can't compare with him."

Several young people stood there blankly, and after a long time, they murmured, "Together, we can't even compare to one of them. Those six people are indeed the former sons of the family."

The faces of the aristocratic family present looked melancholy. Cui Gong, the host of the tea party, suddenly spoke with a solemn tone: "Those six children can be regarded as the most handsome people in the world, but they broke away from the family directly after a trip to Hebei. There is only one reason. They

I was frightened by Gu Tianya. Now think about how powerful Gu Tianya is."

"One person can conquer six young masters?"

"It's not impressed, but scared. Although I don't know what happened during the period, I can infer something from the actions of the six children. When they were in Hebei, they must have been frightened by Gu Tianya in a special way.

Already."

"That's why they broke up and separated? They committed an unforgivable act of betrayal."

"Although it is a betrayal of the family, it is not necessarily a bad thing. Now that I think about it, this matter may be a big conspiracy."

The host of the tea party looked at several young people as he spoke, and continued with a hint of caution: "At the end of the Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms, aristocratic families divided their bets. For example, Zhuge Liang and his brother Zhuge Jin each chose a lord to assist them, regardless of whether

Whether we win or lose, we can guarantee the prosperity of our family. However, as the family becomes more and more powerful, our thoughts become more and more arrogant. We no longer think deeply about the possibility of failure. We have not done anything too much for hundreds of years.

It’s something to pay attention to.”

"Mr. Cui, do you think we will lose?"

"Haha, I just appreciate those six children taking precautions."

"This seems to mean losing."

"The world is like chess, winning or losing is unpredictable. Before the final moment, who can guarantee that he will be the winner?"

…

Several young people looked at each other and couldn't help but said: "Mr. Cui, we will not lose. Now the guards of the Prince's Mansion have gone to various places and built dozens of Zhechong Mansion in half a year. We have 200,000 elite troops, and we have already secured

We firmly control the Hedong Road and Guannai Road, and all the important places in Gyeonggi are in our hands."

Cui Gong glanced at a few people and said slowly: "But Tiance Mansion is also working hard to control the real power of Huainan Road and Jiangnan Road."

Several young people were startled and said subconsciously: "It seems that Fugongyou's rebels are occupying that place?"

At this time, Wang Si from the Wang family in Taiyuan came from outside the door, stared at the juniors and warned: "Half a day ago, the birds in the south were anxious to write, Fu Gongyou's rebellion had been put down, and Li Xiaogong's counter-rebellion army had swept across Huainan and Jiangnan.

road."

Several young people turned pale and said, "We have subsidized Fu Gongyou so much money and food, but he can't even sustain it for a year?"

The aristocratic family present suddenly shouted softly and reprimanded: "Who funded Fugongyou? Don't say such nonsense. That was when Fugongyou didn't rebel in the past. Our aristocratic family made good friends with him and sent him some money and food, but he rebelled After that, the aristocratic family has long regarded him as an enemy."

"We obviously sent him tens of thousands of dan of food three months ago."

"Shut up, that was the last time. From that day on, the family has nothing to do with Fu Gongyou."

"Why did you break off the relationship three months ago?"

"Because we speculate that he is destined to be put down..."

The faces of several young people became even paler, with deep worry and anxiety flashing in their eyes.

Now that they have been recruited and trained by the family, they have begun to accept countless insider secrets. They already know which sect Li Xiaogong is from.

Although Li Xiaogong was not a general of the Tiance Mansion, he openly supported Li Shimin. In other words, Jiangnan and Huainan fell into Li Shimin's hands.

And after half a year of hard work, their family only managed to master Guannei Road and Hedong Road through the name of Prince's Mansion.

After a slight comparison of the strengths of the two sides, it turned out that Tiance Mansion had won by a few margins because Li Shimin was already in charge of Henan Road and Shannan Road.

It is equivalent to mastering the four ways.

There were only ten roads in the Tang Dynasty, among which Hebei Road was still untouchable.

…

At this time, Wang Si slowly walked into the tea pavilion, walked directly to the main seat and sat down. His seat was at the same level as the host of the tea party, and he was one of the organizers of this tea party.

But when Wang Si picked up the tea cup, he was not in the mood to drink tea. He suddenly put down the tea cup, looked far away in the direction of the imperial city, and said: "The Li family's empire is gradually becoming more and more stable, and it is destined to last for a hundred or two hundred years."

Cui Gong sat back in his seat and said with sympathy: "Li Tang's general trend has been established, and it is not in the interests of the people to overthrow it, so the family should cling to it and make plans to live with the country."

Wang Si nodded and said solemnly: "Therefore, the Prince's Mansion must win. Only if Li Jiancheng takes over, the family will continue to grow. If Li Shimin wins, the people in Tiance Mansion are waiting to replace us. The interests of the world are only so If there are too many, we won’t have to eat if others eat it. The so-called replacement means that we will perish.”

Cui Gong looked up at the outside of the pavilion and said leisurely: "There are ten roads in the Tang Dynasty, and Tiance Mansion has mastered four roads. Although our family controls the capital, we only have Hedong Road and Guannai Road. Their strengths are not equal. Yes, there are six ways in total."

Then he looked back at everyone and said: "We can't touch Hebei Road. The only ones we can grab are Jiannan, Lingnan and Longyou. If we have these three roads in hand, we will have five roads to win the battle."

Everyone looked solemn, and there was a depressing atmosphere in the air.

Wang Si pondered for a long time and then slowly spoke: "Luanyou Road is desolate, Jiannan Road is the border of Tubo, and Lingnan Road is also remote..."

Cui Gong did not hesitate and said in a deep voice: "But we have to fight. The general trend cannot be separated from the land."

Wang Si nodded solemnly and said: "On the right side of the road, there are some branches of the Wang family."

Cui Gong spoke immediately and said: "The Feng family from Lingnan often does business with the Cui family."

This is what it means that two ways can be fought for.

Several young people suddenly spoke and asked cautiously: "The powerful family in Lingnan seems to be the Song family, right?"

As a result, Cui Gong and Wang Si shook their heads together and said calmly: "The Song family is a green forest ethnic group. They never care about who controls the country. So as long as they win over the Feng family, they can firmly hold Lingnan in their hands."

Several young people nodded repeatedly and suddenly asked: "There is another Jiannan Road..."

The chief of the Zheng family in Xingyang stood up and said with a smile: "The Zheng family has been operating in Jiannan for decades and has spread out five ethnic groups."

Everyone smiled happily and said, "That's enough."

All three paths have a great chance of success within their grasp.

At this time, Cui Gong suddenly spoke again and said: "If you just hold the hand, you may not be able to be a great help. I have recently been observing the situation in Hebei Province and discovered Gu Tianya's magic trick. I want to imitate it and use it as a good strategy.

"

Everyone was startled and couldn't help but asked curiously: "Gu Tianya was his postmaster in Hebei. In addition to allocating land and dividing fields, he also developed people's livelihood. We all know these things, but we can't imitate him."

But I saw Cui Gong chuckle, suddenly waved to a servant outside the pavilion, and said: "Hang up the treasure, I will explain it to everyone personally..."

The slave quickly agreed and then carefully unfolded a scroll. He hung the scroll directly on the tea pavilion so that everyone could watch it together.

Wang Si's expression changed first, and he said with shock: "It's actually a map of mountains and rivers, and I didn't expect it to fall into the hands of the Cui family."

Cui Gong smiled proudly, nodded and said: "Yes, it is the map of mountains and rivers."

Several young people looked at each other and couldn't help but curiously asked: "Does this picture have a great origin?"

Cui Gong looked at them indifferently and did not give a specific reply.

But Wang Si stood up and stepped forward, staring at the picture with envy, and said: "You younger generation don't know the past, I will tell you a story now..."

As he spoke, he pointed at the scroll and said with emotion: "In the Sui Dynasty, there was a strange man who served as the emperor's tutor. He had dozens of rare and rare treasures in his hands, including this scroll of mountains and rivers."

Cui Gong also sighed with emotion and said: "It's a pity that the imperial master is hostile to the family and insists on being a life-or-death enemy with us. By teaching Yang Guang countless knowledge, he wants to use Yang Guang's imperial power to change the rules of the world. Together with our family,

We were so ruthless that it took us twenty years to kill him. Although we won, we won miserably..."

Wang Si seemed to recall the past and murmured: "In that battle between aristocratic families and the royal family, we lost dozens of high-ranking aristocratic families, and even a super powerful family disappeared forever from the world."

Several young people looked in disbelief and subconsciously said: "He can fight against all the powerful people in the world by himself?"

Wang Si glanced at several young men and said solemnly: "To be precise, all the nobles in the world are fighting against him."

Several young people stood frozen on the spot.

Wang Si stretched out his hand and pointed at the scroll again and said: "This map of mountains and rivers is the treasure of the imperial master. As long as you read this map, you can see the entire Central Plains in your eyes, even as small as a village or even a mountain."

The small river is marked on this picture, and it can be called a peerless treasure."

He paused for a moment, and then continued: "It is said that the Imperial Master also has two treasure maps, called the Ocean Navigation Map and the World Map of All Nations. It is a pity that they have never been seen, and it is very likely that they will never be seen again in this life."

All the family heads present sighed and said with regret: "It is a blessing in our lives to be able to see this map of mountains and rivers and the country again. As for the other two treasure maps, it is said that only Yang Guang and his sister have seen them. The Great Sui Dynasty

The princess is married to the emperor's master, and she can play with any treasure..."

"Oh, that princess!" Wang Si suddenly smiled bitterly and murmured: "If that princess hadn't cared about the common people, maybe our family would have turned into withered bones in the grave."

Several young people looked at each other and said in astonishment: "What do you mean, we almost lost?"

"It's not that I lost, I was almost dragged to death by that imperial master. He is a banished immortal from heaven and comes to this world. He has the poison of the plague immortal in his body. Once he is released, everyone in the world will die together."

The patriarch of the Zheng family in Xingyang suddenly spoke and said: "This junior was young and could not participate in that scene, but I heard the elders in the family said that the imperial master really planned to drag everyone to die together. The fault was not with that person.

The princess tried to persuade her, but I am afraid that no one is alive in the entire Central Plains."

The family heads present all shuddered and subconsciously said: "That time, it was really scary."

At this time, Cui Gong suddenly walked up to the picture scroll, pointed at it and said: "I took out this picture today just to explain it through the picture. After I finish explaining it, you will understand what Gu Tianya is doing.

The matter is so secretive. If it weren’t for this picture, I would never have been able to detect his intentions..."

He paused for a moment, and then continued: "Slowly advancing, step by step, but everyone was kept in the dark. They only thought that he was living behind closed doors. This husband of Princess Pingyang is really five hundred years old."

What a genius."

Everyone hurriedly gathered in front of the picture scroll, looked at it with longing, and said one after another: "Please Mr. Cui tell us, so that we can understand our confusion. What did Gu Tianya do that makes you insist on trying to imitate him?"

Cui Gong nodded slowly and said solemnly: "I sum up his actions in six words: driving nails, building walls..."
