Cai Jing has a total of eight sons. Among them, the youngest son is his favorite, and the second son is the one he trains most carefully. Although the second son Cai Sui is not as intelligent and strategic as his eldest son Cai You, Cai Jing, who has a unique vision, has long recognized that Cai Sui is more powerful than his eldest son Cai You.

Cai You wants to have more filial piety. Therefore, Cai Jing has been training Cai Sui as his successor.

Cai Jing served as minister four times in his life. During the fourth time, Cai Jing was already old. During that period, Cai Jing basically handed over all the affairs of the court to Cai Sui. Cai Sui's status suddenly increased sharply, and he became the minister of the court.

Everyone respects him. He is very dissatisfied with Cai You. He thinks that his talents are higher than Cai Sui. Cai Jing does this out of partiality.

To say that Cai You is indeed capable, he has always been admired by Zhao Ji. There was even a period of time when Zhao Ji favored Cai You even more than Cai Jing. In the fourth year of Zhenghe, Cai You was canonized as a young master, and his status was the same as that of Cai Jing.

On a par with each other, Cai You left the Cai Mansion and established his own branch from then on.

After leaving the Cai Mansion, Cai You became even more dissatisfied with Cai Sui. He tried to trap Cai Sui many times and almost killed him several times. Fortunately, Cai Sui was supported by Cai Jing, who helped Cai Sui avoid danger several times. Since then,

Later, Cai You and Cai Jing also came to hate him, and the two had a confrontation in the court for a period of time. Cai Jing was almost asked by Cai You to ask the emperor for an official appointment on the grounds that he was "old, sick and overwhelmed".

However, in the end Jiang was still too old. In the fifth year of Zhenghe, Cai Jing sent Cai You to the position of Zhenhai Jiedushi. Since then, Cai You has been far away from the center of power of the imperial court, which is equivalent to being exiled.

Now when he heard Cai Jing ask him if he could call him "Dad", to be honest, Cai You felt like he wanted to laugh out loud.

Cai Jing looked at Cai You's silent look and sighed slightly. He shook his head and said: "I'm old. The Cai family is in urgent need of someone to come back and take charge of the overall situation. You have been wandering outside for so long, and now it's time to go home.

Bar?"

"Go home?" Cai You smiled faintly: "Is this my home? No one knows why I left this home in the first place, don't you still know? Now I have been an official outside for many years, and I don't know how happy I am.

, now that you have asked me to come back again, I would like to ask you, why should I come back?"

Cai Jing looked at Cai You quietly, and Cai You's eyes did not dodge at all. Whether at home or outside, Cai Jing was a person with a strong sense of majesty. Anyone who dared to look at him calmly like this, Cai Jing

After thinking for a long time, it seemed that he only remembered Liang Xin. Now seeing such a look on Cai You, Cai Jing felt that he had made the right decision.

Cai Jing thought for a while and then said: "In the past, you blamed me for ruining your future. Now I will give you a future to make up for it."

Cai Jing stood up from his seat. He hunched over and walked to a row of wooden shelves lined with antiques. He turned on a mechanism and the wooden shelves moved to both sides. A stone door was revealed. It turned out that there was another person in Cai Jing's study.

Secret room.

Cai Jing turned back and glanced at Cai You. Cai You followed Cai Jing into the secret room. Cai Jing knocked on the wall. First, there was a faint dark light blooming in the middle of the room. It turned out to be a huge night pearl. Cai You can guarantee that.

, he once saw a luminous pearl collected by Zhao Ji. The one in Cai Jing's secret room was a whole circle smaller.

Cai Jing took out a fire stick from his arms and lit it in a stone cave next to the stone door. Then the whole secret room burst into flames, and the secret room suddenly looked like daylight under the light of the fire. The lighting of this secret room was obviously designed by a special person.

The ingenuity is truly unique.

At this moment, Cai You could clearly see the situation in the secret room. The secret room was very big. The treasury he had seen was almost the same size. But unlike the treasury that had been empty all year round, this secret room was filled with gold, silver, antique calligraphy and paintings, and jewelry.

Jade. Cai You couldn't help but glance at Cai Jing. He knew Cai Jing was greedy, but he didn't expect Cai Jing to be so greedy.

Cai Jing was not moved by these mountains of gold, silver and jewels. He was already a man with most of his body buried in the loess, and these external objects no longer meant anything to him.

Cai Jing said: "My whole life's wealth is here. People say that I, Cai Jing, am a huge corrupt person. I don't deny this. But today I don't want to discuss with you whether I am clean or not. I just want to tell you. Da Song

Chaos has arisen, and all forces are ready to take action.

In the prosperous times, yellow and white things were the foundation of the world. Now that troubled times are approaching, only by holding military power and dominating a land can it be protected. Of the gold and silver treasures here, you take one out of ten and present them to the emperor, plus I will

One head should make you one of the first-class ministers.

Now Liang Xin will definitely be waiting for an opportunity to send troops to attack the Liao Kingdom. At that time, you must ask for an order to accompany him so that you can control the military power. When you succeed in conquering the Liao Dynasty and return in triumph, you will definitely be able to hold on to the military power in your hands. If chaos arises after this, with your help

You can choose a prince to follow you for the military power in your hands, and you can probably become a prince to protect the Cai family. If the ancestors protect you, maybe the Cai family can still flourish in your hands."

The Cai family's tone was very calm when they said this, but Cai You's heart was stirred up by huge waves. He didn't know how to react for a moment, so he opened his mouth and said only one thing: "You..."

Cai Jing turned around and took Cai You's hand and said: "You'er, whether it's you or Sui'er or Jun'er, you are all my father's biological flesh and blood, and my father loves you equally. But even though you are all the children of my father,

students, but each of you

Your temper is not good. Although you are wise and wise, you will inevitably be arrogant and arrogant when you succeed in your youth. My father deliberately suppressed you, in fact, to hone your character, but I didn't expect that I would misunderstand you so deeply later.

Now my father is in his dying years, and I don’t know when he will return to the West with his broken body. Rather than lingering on his last breath, it is better to use my father’s broken body to buy another thirty years of wealth for the Cai family. From today on, dad will hand over the Cai family to you.

You must take good care of the Cai family and let the Cai family continue to be glorious, do you understand?"

"Father...you..." As the saying goes, the human heart is made of flesh. No matter how unsympathetic and unkind a person is, when his loved ones are about to pass away, and when this person is still thinking about himself before he dies, what will happen to him?

It is inevitable for everyone to be moved. For example, Cai You is extremely moved in his heart.

Cai You took Cai Jing's hand with his backhand and said: "Dad, actually you don't have to do this at all. Liang Xin is not difficult to deal with. We can transfer the border guards to let the Liao invade. Then Liang Xin will naturally attack the Liao in advance, so

Once this happens, dad's matters will be put on hold temporarily. During this period of time, we only need to regain the emperor's trust, and the emperor will definitely protect us."

Cai Jing shook his head: "That's not the case."

"Although Liang Xin cares about the world, he cares more about his brothers, relatives and friends. My father indirectly killed his sworn brother, so he will not let his father go. In addition, my father's life and death can no longer be controlled by the emperor.

Okay, today during the court meeting, the emperor already came to me and

Liang Xin made a choice. The emperor's family is the most ruthless. Now that his father is too old and faint, he has no use value for the emperor. The emperor will not protect his father this time. You'er, just follow what your father just told you.

Only through words and deeds can we ensure the stability of the Cai family."

"Father, but you..." Cai You felt a little sour in his heart, and at this moment he actually felt like crying.

On the other side, Liang Xin went straight back to the West Factory after coming out of the palace. In the West Factory, Yin Jianglin, Cao Yuanzheng, Long Jue, and Liang Xin sat together. After the four waited for a while, Xia Yunfeng also came. Five people

Talking about what happened in the court today, Xia Yunfeng was a little unsure and asked Liang Xin: "Your Majesty, the second court meeting will be in five days. Will I continue to pursue Cai Jing?"

"Continue." Liang Xin nodded: "As long as Cai Jing doesn't resist, once he resists we will ignore him and directly attack his seven sons. His seven sons are not good people either. Relying on Cai Jing's power

It’s also about being domineering and bullying men and women. In short, this time either Cai Jing will die or Cai Jing’s whole family will die!”

"Seven sons? Don't Cai Jing's family have eight sons?" Cao Yuanzheng said: "It is said that Cai You is also a man who is proficient in power. There was a time when the emperor favored him even more than Cai Jing. Shouldn't we

Be careful about this person?"

Liang Xin thought for a while and then said: "Okay, go and bring up this person's file and show it to me."

Just as Liang Xin finished speaking, there was a sudden knock on the door, and then the person outside reported: "Your Majesty, someone from the palace invites you to come into the palace. It is said that the Liao Kingdom sent an envoy."

"The Liao Kingdom sent an envoy?" Liang Xin stood up from his seat, sneered twice and said: "Okay, those bastards of the Khitan people, when I mentioned them, they were full of evil fire.

To vent, he bumped into my hands today to bring bad luck to them, but I want to see who they sent today."

Liang Xin immediately drove his horse into the palace. After entering the palace, the young eunuch who came to convey the order took Liang Xin straight to the Zichen Palace. Zichen Palace has now become one of Zhao Ji's favorite places to stay. When Liang Xin walked into the Zichen Palace, he saw five

Liao people.

None of the five Liao people were known to Liang Xin, which made Liang Xin feel a little disappointed and a little lucky. He was disappointed that there were no people like Telela Yelu Dilie to teach him a lesson, but fortunately Yelu Lianrong didn't come.

, otherwise he really doesn’t know how to treat him.

Seeing Liang Xin entering the palace, Zhao Ji waved to Liang Xin and said: "Liang Xin, you are here. Dear envoys of the Liao Dynasty, I would like to introduce to you that this person is my king Liang Xin."

Liang Xin's name was not only very resounding in the Song Dynasty, but also in Jin and Liao. When they heard that it was Liang Xin, the five Liao envoys immediately saluted Liang Xin and said, "See King Bingjian."
