Chapter 60 Ambition Gradually Rise (Part 2)

"I'm just a little person, what can I change?"

Li Xun spread his hands and smiled bitterly.

"As long as you work hard, a small person can become a big person. It depends on whether you dare to try."

Jiang Daxiong walked in at this time, and Fan Zhongyun immediately fell silent.

"Boss, the master said that he has to go to the manor to do something. I want to ask you if you want to go."

"No, I don't have time."

Li Xun waved his hand: "Da Xiong, you are guarding the door. No one is allowed to come in without my instructions."

"I know, boss."

Jiang Daxiong nodded, walked to the door, hugged his shoulders, and remained motionless.

Li Xun pulled Fan Zhongyun to sit down, put his head close to him, and whispered: "Old Fan, what do you want to say, just say it bluntly."

Fan Zhongyun was silent for a moment, and then suddenly said: "Li Xun, I once told you that if it weren't for Xiaoman's illness, I would have resigned and retired. Do you know why I did this?"

"Why?"

Li Xun really couldn't understand it. In his opinion, Fan Zhongyun was born in a poor family, studied poetry and books for more than ten years, passed the imperial examination several times, and finally passed the examination and became an official. There must be a reason for this.

But Fan Zhongyun didn't say anything before, and Li Xun didn't ask any more questions.

Fan Zhongyun sighed and said: "A gentleman is known as righteousness, and a villain is known as profit. I, Fan Zhongyun, am neither a gentleman nor a villain. I am just a mediocre person who only wants to live a stable life. But today's Jin Dynasty is full of crises, and the world is about to be in chaos."

At the end of the day, I’m just a little person, and since I can’t change, I can only live on my own.”

Li Xun was surprised and said: "Are your words too alarmist? In today's Jin Dynasty, the emperor is not stupid, and he is assisted by Yang Daosi and other wise ministers. He has a great victory in the south of the Yangtze River and stable taxation. All the princes in the world are shocked. In my opinion,

Come, within thirty years, there will be no chaos in the Jin Dynasty."

"You only see the surface, but you don't understand the essence."

Fan Zhongyun sneered and said: "The current Holy Emperor has average abilities. Although he is not a heroic Holy Emperor, he can still be considered a good Emperor. Among the civil officials, there are two sage ministers, Yang Daosi and Liu Jie. In the military, there are Wang An, Li Zhong and Zhao Bo'an, and some.

They are pressing down on it, and the civil and military officials really don't dare to have any ideas."

Speaking of this, Fan Zhongyun took a sip of water, and then continued: "Yang Daosi is an experienced and steady leader of the country, and Liu Jie knows people well and knows how to use them, and he understands military affairs. Both of them are political masters, and they are both from famous families, and they are extremely prestigious.

Gao, divided the entire court's civil and military officials into two major factions. The two fought and compromised each other. After so many years, they have cooperated happily, and they didn't even think about beating anyone to death. But now the emperor is old.

, the battle for the crown prince is becoming more and more obvious and fierce. On this issue, Liu Jie and Yang Daosi may be able to restrain themselves and not become too fierce and the situation will get out of control. However, the factions behind them,

If there is no consensus on ambitions and no compromise at all, the differences between the two factions will become wider and wider, and the final result will only be a complete breakup and even a life-and-death struggle."

"Now, with the prestige of the Holy Emperor, we can barely suppress the overall situation, but what will happen after a hundred years as the Emperor? Both Yang Daosi and Liu Jie are over seventy, how many years can they live? After they die, who can?

Do you have enough prestige and ability to mediate and control the overall situation of the court and the battles between factions?"

Li Xun listened with great concentration. Fan Zhongyun glanced at him and continued: "This is just an internal situation. The external situation is even more crisis-ridden. Ever since the late Emperor Pingzong married his eldest daughter to Monan, the Monan Hu people have been at odds with the great majority.

Jin maintained good relations with Jin, but now the Monan Hu tribe has begun to decline and can no longer contain Mobei Wada. King Li Zhong of An led an army of 150,000 to garrison Anbei and had been at odds with Mobei Wada for many years. No one could do anything to anyone. As long as the Central Plains did not

Chaos, this situation will continue. Tufan in the west has recovered its vitality after many years of cultivation. The new Zanpu has great ambitions and is eyeing our Jin Dynasty. Ailao in the southwest has taken advantage of the civil strife in Funan in recent years to engage in wanton

With the expansion of its territory and the rise of its power, it is no longer respectful to the Jin Dynasty, and its attitude is becoming more and more arrogant. Once civil strife breaks out in the Jin Dynasty, Ailao will take the opportunity to send troops to invade. Finally, there is Annan. Annan has been experiencing constant civil strife in recent years, and the regime has experienced several changes.

Replacement is nothing to worry about for the time being."

"You said so much, why didn't you mention the military governors from various places?"

After listening to Fan Zhongyun's explanation, Li Xun suddenly became enlightened and had a certain understanding of the situation in the world. However, Fan Zhongyun said so much but did not mention those Jiedu envoys who supported their troops and respected themselves, which made Li Xun feel strange.

Fan Zhongyun said quietly: "Although the military governors in various places have heavy troops, they all regard the Jin Dynasty as the orthodoxy. As long as the court is not in chaos and has great righteousness, and they are not given an excuse to send troops, even though there are many military governors in the world, they cannot be shaken for the time being.

The foundation of the Jin Dynasty."

Li Xun nodded, pondered for a moment, and finally said: "Old Fan, what do you really want to express after you have said so much? Even if foreigners invade and the Jin Dynasty is destroyed, at worst I will fly away with my money, what will happen?"

Fan Zhongyun smiled bitterly and said: "I have said so much, why do you still not understand? Now the battle for the crown prince is getting more and more intense. Liu Jie supports Zhao Xun, and behind Zhao Shuo is Yang Daosi and the entire Yang family. Liu Jie has

The emperor's support can barely compete with Yang Daosi's division. Without the emperor's support, the balance between the two parties will be broken. Even if the emperor passes the throne to Qi Wang Zhao Xun, Zhao Xun will not be able to keep the throne.

The ministers are divided, there are powerful enemies outside, and the governors from various places have the excuse to send troops, they will definitely deal a fatal blow to the Jin Dynasty, and the world will be in chaos!"

Speaking of this, Fan Zhongyun asked: "Zhao Xun and Zhao Shuo had a dispute over the throne. Once Zhao Shuo ascends the throne, how can he let King Qi go? If something happens to King Qi, Concubine Li Guifei will not be spared. As her

What will happen to my nephew?"

Li Xun was silent, and finally had some other thoughts in his mind. After a long time, Li Xun said silently: "Then what can I do?"

Fan Zhongyun was shocked. After he had said so much, Li Xun finally responded: "Concubine Li is deeply loved by the emperor. You are her nephew. With this relationship, the emperor will also love Wujiwu and have a preference for you."

Love, how could you not take advantage of such a good opportunity?"

Li Xun smiled bitterly and said: "If I go directly to the emperor's uncle to ask for an official position, even if I can get it, I'm afraid he will not be happy."

Fan Zhongyun said with a smile: "Such a thing can only be tactfully stated, how can we say it clearly? The security in the south of the city has always been poor, the powerful are unscrupulous and tyrannical, and the people dare to be angry but dare not speak out. You can advise the emperor and set up an inspection camp to manage the security in the south of the city.
