Riding the Pheonix Chapter 142: First appointment

Mingwei knew that he had to find a helper.

She is a woman, and her current identity is far away from the center. It is simply impossible to intervene in the political situation.

According to her plan, she had to do one thing first after entering Beijing to change this situation.

But it's not enough.

If you don’t want to go down that **** road, you can’t let the three emperors after Emperor Wen ascend the throne.

The former deposed emperor, the spiritual emperor, and the latter deposed emperor.

To control the overall situation of the world, she must have strong allies who can intervene in government affairs and stand at the center of the storm.

In fact, Yang Shu did not quite meet her requirements.

His apparent identity is already noble enough, but he is still forced to hide his true identity.

What this true identity is is simply unimaginable.

She had doubts about whether a person with such a big secret could truly enter the center of power.

And he is so arrogant that even the prince wants to avoid his edge. History tells us that such people are often successful for a while, but when the new master comes to the throne, they will be settled by the queen, and the end will definitely be miserable.

She has never read any records about him in later generations, so it is possible that this is how she ended up...

In comparison, Jiang Wenfeng is more in line with her requirements.

A famous minister spread throughout history, history has proven his character.

Being born in two rankings and being a young Jinshi, as long as you have enough qualifications, you are qualified to enter the political hall.

And through contact, it has been proven that he has a good character, is not pedantic, and is decisive and willing to take responsibility.

Unfortunately, he seems to have no ambition in this regard and only focuses on investigating unjust cases.

So, she could only settle for the next best thing.

Before you win over Jiang Wenfeng, take Yang Shu first.

There is nothing wrong with Yang Shu. He is young and has a high starting point. He has a close relationship with the emperor and controls the secret agency of the Imperial City Division.

As a person... my personality is a bit complicated and difficult to control, but I have a good side in my heart and I can barely get by...

Fortunately, Yang Shu had no way of knowing what was going on in her mind. Otherwise, knowing that he would settle for the next best thing, he would most likely fall out with her...

He fell silent, sat on the futon, and processed what she said.

"In which year was the Qi Dynasty destroyed?"

"Sixty years from now."

"Only sixty years..."

Ming Wei said: "In fact, after thirty years, Chao Gang has been ruined beyond recognition. The remaining thirty years are just lingering. It is much easier to lose money than imagined."

"In just one year, Da Qi destroyed the country, and Southern Chu followed suit. So, there is a third party? Is it Beihu?"

Mingwei said softly: "They are Hu people, but to be more precise, they are the Western Wei Dynasty established by Hu people."

"Western Wei?" Yang Shu frowned, "You mean, the Hu people established a unified court? How is this possible? They are divided into various large and small tribes, and they are constantly attacking each other. Who has the ability to unify?"

Mingwei sighed: "You have to admit that there will always be some unparalleled heroes in this world. They can do things that others cannot, so they are praised by Qingshi. The Western Wei Dynasty will appear soon, and now it is Yongjia In eighteen years, and in two years, it will appear in the northwest of Northern Qi, putting Northern Qi into a situation where it is attacked from two sides, and will no longer be able to conquer the south and unify the Central Plains."

At this point, she paused: "For those of us in later generations, the Northern Qi Dynasty has never been a unified dynasty. It has never been able to destroy the Southern Chu, and finally died at the hands of the Hu people. In In the torrent of history, it can only be regarded as a small court divided into one party."

The veins on Yang Shu's forehead throbbed, and he didn't know if he was angry because of her words.

Daqi in his eyes is so powerful. There is prosperity and wealth, and there are strong soldiers and horses, but now is the time. When the time comes, he will send his troops south and unify the Central Plains.

But Mingwei told him that such power could only last for sixty years.

No, it should be said to be thirty years.

What have you experienced in these thirty years?

"So, where is the turning point?" He tried his best to suppress his emotions and look for the crux of the problem.

"Seven years later." Mingwei said simply and neatly, "Emperor Wen passed away and was succeeded by a prodigal son."

"Emperor Wen..." he said softly, "Is this his posthumous title?"

"Yes."

Yang Shu smiled with unknown meaning: "His merits in martial arts are worthy of him."

After saying that, he stood up and said, "Okay, I understand, thank you." Then he walked out.

"Hey!" Mingwei was stunned, "Are you trying to burn bridges by crossing the river?"

After she finished talking about the important things, he didn’t say anything and left like this?

Yang Shu stopped and looked at her playfully: "You said it yourself, I didn't force you."

"..."

He opened the folding fan and fanned it leisurely: "The strength of the two sides is not equal at all. Why do you think that I should follow the principle of fairness? To me, you seem to be a bit weak as a helper!"

Mingwei smiled instead of getting angry: "Okay, once you get out of this door, don't regret it in the future."

In her anger, she smiled particularly sweetly. Yang Shu rolled his eyes a little, paused, and turned back with a smile: "Why are you so serious? I'm just kidding you!"

He sat back on the futon and expressed his sincerity: "Since you are so sincere, I will tell you the truth. I swore an oath in front of my grandmother that as long as my surname is Yang, this matter will never be divulged. ."

Mingwei looked at him sideways: "No need to discuss?"

"No negotiation."

Mingwei nodded: "Okay~IndoMTL.com~I won't force you."

Seeing that he was relieved, he immediately said: "But if I had to guess it myself..."

Yang Shu smiled: "If you really guess it, tell me whatever you want to know."

"Have you agreed?"

"A gentleman's words."

Mingwei did not answer the following words, but instead questioned: "Are you a gentleman?"

"Hey!"

"I was joking too."

Mingwei stretched out her hand and gave him a high five.

"Have we reached a preliminary alliance?"

Yang Shu lazily said: "It's too early to talk about alliance. Although you were joking before, you can't deny that you are not strong enough, right? Putting aside your identity for the moment, in terms of mysticism alone, you can't be called a first-class mystic now. Scholar."

This body with little magic power is her flaw.

Mingwei said, "I'm going to correct you, I'm a fortune teller, not a magician."

Yang Shu was curious: "What about the fortune teller?"

"Forefathers, you don't rely on magic power. I thought you already knew this very well after what happened at Baoling Temple."

Yang Shu still wanted to argue: "If it had been another Xuanshi at that time, it would have been fine!"

Mingwei pulled off the golden hairpin on his head and shook it: "Do you think anyone can see the twelve exquisite locks?"

"..."

"It's fine if you don't believe in my strength." She inserted the gold hairpin back and straightened her sleeves, "I heard that the Xuanshi at Xuandu Temple in the capital are very powerful. Why don't you go and look for me?" Same."

Yang Shu touched his chin and thought for a while: "Okay. If you can't find it, I will admit that you are qualified. If you can't find it..."

"I will listen to you."

Yang Shu nodded with satisfaction: "Keep your word."
