Chapter 55: The same is the end of the world
A rich man with a little ambition is fine when he is full, and he is left with only the flowers and wine. When flowers and wine are not attractive to him, his ambitions will automatically break out like the seedlings of spring.
Lu Huiqing has seen too many such people. The most scheming and aspiring people in the Imperial College are not the poor children, but the noble children. They just buried all their desire for fame and fortune in their hearts, not just exposed themselves like those poor children.
They like to control a world, from controlling a dormitory to controlling a class, to controlling the entire Imperial College class, but their methods are immature. Those who have money use money, and those who have power at home use power. If they have power and talent, such people will often become the leaders of Imperial College.
This is not uncommon in the Imperial College. As a teacher, Lu Huiqing has long known that people like Wang Yiyong are the representatives of such people. The biggest reason why he can reign as the princess of Wu is that he is good-looking and has a good background. He was also a sensational figure in the Imperial College. Then he was attracted by the late emperor and became the prince consort helplessly.
Such people are not short of money. In the overall environment of the Song Dynasty, which yearns for wealth, there will naturally be no shortage of women. Especially for a person who once had lofty ambitions and pretentiousness, being able to completely control something that truly belongs to him is almost fatal.
His home is actually the princess, his money is actually the princess, and his son is actually the princess, which is why they are called the princess.
As for his former family, my father became his brother, and returning to such a family is also a tragedy. Once he became a son-in-law in the Song Dynasty, there was almost no possibility of becoming a hero among the people.
After returning to the princess's mansion, Lu Huiqing waited for Wang Yiyong's arrival in his room. Old Butler Wang was a very suitable microphone for sending the phone. In a short while, the prince-consort appeared unconsciously in this small courtyard.
Seeing Wang Yiyong looking up at the gray sky, Lu Huiqing shook his head gently and sighed: "Why do you have to come? I want others to help but don't know how to treat others. It's true..."
"The geese are about to fly north. Today, I saw that the weeping willows by the river are already goose yellow. In another three or five days, spring will come and the earth will recover. At this time of year, the emperor of the Liao Kingdom will lead a large group of people to the Yazi River to hold a spring bowl, worship ancestors, worship heaven and earth, and worship the bravery of the Liao people.
Sometimes I can’t figure it out. These geese have worked hard to fly tens of thousands of miles to send themselves over and be shot down by the Liao people with arrows. It’s really not worth it.”
Wang Yiyong looked at the sky with his hands behind his back and said, "The geese fly south to avoid the cold. The geese fly north to avoid the heat. Can't they find a place where they are warm in winter and cool in summer?"
Lu Huiqing smiled and said, "Some people say that my hometown is my peace of mind. I think the reason why the wild geese are wandering around north and south is just for peace of mind. The wild geese know what they know, but they don't know where the son-in-law's hometown is?"
Wang Yiyong smiled and said, "Just be harmonious with the princess, you will be Yongxiang!"
Lu Huiqing rolled his eyes and said, "Since that's the case, I have some skills passed down from the monks. As long as the prince consort learns one or two skills, it will definitely be as you wish."
Wang Yiyong then looked at Lu Huiqing and said, "What do you want to get from it? Wang Cai said your ruthless words. Now is your last chance. Make it clear, otherwise I will send you to the government or ask the princess to deal with it."
Lu Huiqing walked up to Wang Yiyong and patted his bloated belly and smiled bitterly: "I'm almost dying, but my talent is unwilling to give up and turns into dirt with my **, and I always want to do something.
But I had no money, no one, and no good foundation. When I was in good health, I always felt that I had plenty of time to squander, so I focused on enjoyment. After I got sick, I realized that I had little time left. I could no longer lay the foundation from the ground and made a splash in the end."
"So you want to use the power of the Princess' Mansion to fulfill your wish?"
Lu Huiqing smiled and said, "That's right. I won't say this in advance. Please help the prince consort to solve my doubts first. The prince consort was also a rare young talent back then. It's a pity that your Wang family needs to marry the emperor, and your talent has become useless. I actually always want to ask the prince consort, you are the rising star of the Wang family, why did the Wang family launch you to Princess Shang? Could it be that the young people of the Wang family back then have more promising than you?"
Wang Yiyong couldn't help but clench his fists and said, "My mother passed away early!"
Lu Huiqing nodded and said, "Since that's the case, our goal coincides with each other. It's really a pity for a talented person to do a job that can be done by a candid.
In view of this, didn’t the prince-consort think about controlling something with his own hands?”
"The royal family is not allowed, the prince-consort can't do anything!"
Lu Huiqing returned to the room and took out a copy of "Song Xingtong" and put it in Wang Yiyong's hand and said, "What did you prides in heaven learn in the Imperial College? Why didn't you study such an important course in "Song Xingtong" well?"
Wang Yiyong looked at the book in his hand and said proudly: "The doctor cannot be punished!"
Lu Huiqing shook his head and said, "In my eyes, this book is not about how to punish people, but about telling everyone what they can do and what they cannot do. If you think you are a scholar-official, you don't have to pay attention to this book, that's a big mistake.
This is a sample used to regulate people's behavior. In other words, if there are explicitly stipulated things, you must follow the rules mentioned in the book. If there are no explicitly stipulated, it is possible to do it. The so-called "not excluding the law and not prosecuting the punishment" is the truth.
This book clearly stipulates that the prince consort must abide by many rules, but I have carefully studied it three times and found that there are provisions that the prince consort is not allowed to do business. Therefore, the prince consort can do business!"
Wang Yiyong frowned and said, "I am not short of money!"
Lu Huiqing laughed and said, "If you and I are just discussing money, they will not only insult you, but also insult me. You are not short of money, but what you lack is a lot of money, which can control a batch of money in the Song Dynasty.
Fan Li and Lu Buwei, the deeds of these sages are still in my mind, why don’t you hear them? Nowadays, merchants are generous to the Gancheng of the country for the Song Dynasty. The tax paid by merchants every year supported this empire. It is precisely because of their existence that the Song Dynasty can now show a prosperous pattern.
Yun Zheng used the power of the Shuzhong Chamber of Commerce to fight south and north and fight invincible. Wang Anshi built a Song Dynasty money house with the help of some Yici Leye people, and in a short time he completely proved his theory - the people did not increase their taxes and the country used their best. Just today, I heard merchants in Banshantang that Di Qing was preparing to open the ancient tea-horse road and was preparing to sell goods to the Tianzhu Kingdom, and raised millions of stagnants of money in a short time.
All three of them have successfully used the merchants, or have been demoted to do things that merchants can do. They can do, why can't you do it?
Wang Yiyong smiled and said, "Mr. Chu, what do you want? Although I, Wang Yiyong, are not very smart, I know a truth. There will never be any benefits in this world for no reason. All benefits can be obtained by exchange. I am not afraid of you to joke. My current life and status are obtained by selling myself, so I don't believe that you don't want anything."
When Lu Huiqing heard Wang Yiyong say the word "selling oneself", he couldn't help but smile and said, "My ** is almost rotten into a pile of stinky meat. When I see the beauty, I can only drink meat porridge pitifully when I see delicious food. I have to drink some highly toxic substances every day to balance the big troubles in my body. This kind of life is so bitter. The only thing that makes me happy is that this head and heart are still useful. Every morning when I wake up, I have to ask myself why I wake up and why I still see the brilliant sky.
Until one day I figured out a problem, that is, as long as a person has value in use, it means that this person is still alive. If a person loses value in use, this person will be considered dead. Therefore, since I will not die for a while, I must live well. Prince Consort, please give me a chance to prove that I, Chu Zhongtian, is still alive."
Wang Yiyong laughed and said, "The same feeling. Every day when I get up, I get bored when I see the women around me. When I see the table full of food, I want to vomit. I drink too much wine and feel dizzy. Even the most beautiful singing voice sounds like the screams of a pig when slaughtering a pig. This world is really boring!"
Lu Huiqing laughed and said, "It's good to find some interesting things to do together. Let's start with the silk from Gusu. When you master the silk weaving of the entire Gusu, you will indirectly master half of Gusu City. At that time, you will suddenly find that this world is not too bad, and there is still a world that belongs to you..."
Wang Yiyong smiled and said, "What are you going to do? Send someone to steal other people's property?"
Lu Huiqing smiled and said, "The weaving workshop of the Princess Mansion itself is the largest in Gusu City. We don't need to rob it, we just need to defeat them. If we use rough methods to incite civil war, the Princess Mansion will probably be unable to escape the disaster."
Wang Yiyong smiled and said, "I have a lot of ideas, just do it. From today on, you will be the shopkeeper of the weaving workshop of the Princess' Mansion. Wang Cai will help you. No matter what, you must let me see your extraordinary things!"
After Lu Huiqing bowed and walked into his room and closed the door. At the moment he turned around and closed the door, he saw the strong expectation on Wang Yiyong's face. Then he smiled secretly and said, "I won't disappoint you..." (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, the novel is better and faster!
