    The motorcade stopped. Li Dongyang opened the curtain and saw many guards scattered around the abandoned pavilion beside the official road. Qin Kan was sitting alone in the pavilion. The dilapidated stone table was filled with exquisite side dishes, baked in red mud.  A pot of wine is simmering on the stove.

    Qin Kan, dressed in green clothes and plain face, with a jade crown and gold belt, sat quietly in the pavilion, gazing at Li Dongyang with a smile, never sullen, elegant and graceful, his eyes seemed to have the magic power of turning snow into spring.

    Li Dongyang¡¯s eyes heated up, he laughed twice, got off the carriage and walked towards the pavilion.

    Qin Kan stood up with a smile and cupped his hands towards Li Dongyang: "Mr.

    Li Dongyang laughed: "How can I not drink Ning Guogong's wine?"

    After saying that, he raised his hand and took the wine cup on the table and drank it in one gulp.

    "Good wine!" Li Dongyang praised loudly, and the praise was not enough. He drank three large glasses in a row. Hundreds of officials outside the city were seeing him off today. Li Dongyang drank a lot. Now after three glasses of wine, his figure suddenly became a little shaky.

    Qin Kan smiled elegantly, but showed no mercy: "Mr.  It is such a rough wine that we have no choice but to serve it to guests. It is hard for Mr. Xiya to praise it as a 'good wine'"

    Li Dongyang almost vomited when he heard the words, and immediately stared: "He is indeed a bastard, and he tricked me before leaving!"

    Qin Kan sighed: "I am not talented, but I still think that I can be regarded as my husband's confidant. Nowadays, there is wind and snow, and I have a confidant. Even vinegar should be the most beautiful vinegar in the world. Drink it like a sweet spring. Mr. has a lot of it."  At your age, why are you still obsessed with love?"

    Li Dongyang laughed loudly: "Yes, I have lived a lifetime, but I am not as good at seeing as you, a weakling like you, in old age. It is true that I am obsessed with my appearance. Come on, come on!"

    Qin Kan smiled and filled Li Dongyang's cup. Li Dongyang raised his head and drank it all in one gulp. With Qin Kan's explanation, he tasted it carefully this time. Li Dongyang smacked his mouth and looked a little weird.

    "Does it taste good?" Qin Kan blinked.

    "You didn't tell me just now, but when it comes to vinegar, why do I think this wine has a sour taste? There is wind, snow, and a confidant. This wine shouldn't taste like this"

    ¡°Because I really added vinegar to it.¡±

    Li Dongyang stopped talking and was silent for a long time while stroking his long beard. Then he said expressionlessly: "You went out of the city today to seek revenge, right?"

    "Mr. Xi Ya is too considerate. This junior is really here to see you off. In addition to seeing you off, I also have an unkind invitation"

    Li Dongyang is indeed an old fox known for his scheming. Hearing this, he narrowed his eyes and said, "I know why you are here."

    Qin Kan said hurriedly and sincerely: "Of course I am here to see the boss back home."

    Li Dongyang snorted coldly: "If I continue to be ignorant, I'm afraid there will be more than just vinegar in the wine. Is it time to poison it?"

    "You are serious, haha, sir, you are serious."

    Li Dongyang took out a piece of paper from his sleeve and threw it to Qin Kan angrily: "I have been waiting outside the city for a long time and you didn't come. I got angry and was planning to burn it."

    Qin Kan took the piece of paper as if he had found a treasure, and after scanning it in a hurry, he couldn't help but be overjoyed.

    I left the city early in the morning today. In addition to saying goodbye to Li Dongyang, the main thing I wanted to do was to see this piece of paper. There was only a list of names written on the paper. They were all ministers of the court, including Bai Yue, the right minister of the Ministry of Rites, Gu Zuo, the new minister of household affairs, and Gong Zuo.  Hong Zhong, the left minister of the Ministry, and so on. The first name on the list was surprisingly the newly appointed Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, Yang Yiqing, Li Dongyang's junior brother.

    It can be seen from this string of names how precious this piece of paper is.

    Qin Kan solemnly put the paper away close to his body, stood up and bowed to Li Dongyang: "Junior, thank you very much, sir. I'm afraid it will be difficult to repay this kindness in this life."

    Li Dongyang said slowly: "These people are all my close colleagues or juniors. Yesterday, I asked them one by one, and they agreed. They will try their best to make it convenient for you in the future. However, whether you can subdue them depends on your own ability."  , Qin Kan, although you now have the same authority as the government, you are not a civil servant after all, and you are very different from a civil servant. I have tried my best to only do this for you, and I can no longer give you any help, but  I¡¯m just asking you to reduce your resistance a little bit.¡±

    Qin Kan nodded silently. Li Dongyang was right. The names on this list were not the younger brothers left by Li Dongyang to him. At most, they were some civil servants who could be fought for. Li Dongyang had been in power for four dynasties and had been in power for fifty years. He had accumulated a lot of contacts.  It was extremely rich, but Li Dongyang¡¯s connections were not necessarily Qin Kan¡¯s connections, except for the favors Yang Yiqing owed him.?, the rest of the people have no contact with each other. If Qin Kan wants to establish his own power in the court, the road ahead is still difficult.

    This is the last gift that Li Dongyang left to Qin Kan. Although these people can only win in theory, it is enough for Qin Kan to be extremely happy.

    Qin Kan, whose face was full of joy, was extremely confused when he saw Li Dongyang frowning and putting the wine with vinegar to his mouth, looking like he was about to commit suicide.

    Qin Kan hurriedly put on a heroic look: "I am a very old man, how can this bad wine be worthy of you? Put it down quickly, I have better ones here"

    As he spoke, he clapped his hands, and a guard walked into the pavilion holding a wine jar. The mouth of the jar was completely sealed with mud, and the freshness of the earth was revealed. Li Dongyang's eyes lit up. There was an extraordinary product with mud on the outside of the wine jar. It was obviously buried in the ground.  It's been many years.

    "The 30-year-old Chen'er's Red sent by Tongzhou Jinyiwei Qianhu has a soft taste and a long aftertaste. It is the most correct choice for high-end and professional people. You deserve it!"

    After saying that, Qin Kan took the wine and patted the mud seal off the jar. A strong and almost full-bodied aroma of wine wafted out and spread throughout the small pavilion.

    Li Dongyang was shocked, not because of his thirty-year-old daughter, but because of Qin Kan's face of being arrogant at first and respectful at the end.

    "Youif I don't come up with this list, will your daughter Hong, who has been in the industry for thirty years, not show up?"

    Qin Kan hesitated for a moment and said: "Mr. Xi Ya knows that I am an honest person, and I won't hide it from you. I got up early in the morning and rushed to a place thirty miles away from the city to say goodbye to my husband. As the saying goes, you can't afford to be early if there is no profit. If  Sir, if you don¡¯t take the list, if I don¡¯t poison the wine, it¡¯s already considered a good act and a great virtue. I really don¡¯t know how to bring out this top-quality daughter¡¯s red"

    Li Dongyang was stunned for a long time, and finally burst into laughter. His whole body trembled with laughter, and his long white beard kept trembling. He pointed at Qin Kan and laughed for a long time before stopping.

    "Villain, a typical villain! When I first met you, you burned down my house. Today you bid farewell to me and you tricked me again. We are finally done. You are only in your twenties this year. I must try your best to do it again.  Live for twenty or thirty years, open your eyes and take a good look at the misery you will cause to the civil servants in the court. Come, fill up the wine for me!"

    The amber daughter's red wine is poured into the wine cup, and it is as thick as a bowl of thick porridge that has been boiled for a long time. The wine that has been buried in the ground for thirty years cannot be drunk directly. Seven parts of old wine must be mixed with three parts of new wine to make the wine taste better.  Take it to the extreme.

    The guard carefully mixed the wine for the two of them, and then respectfully left.

    Li Dongyang raised his glass and drank it all in one gulp, then pursed his lips and opened his eyes wide, motionless as if he was being restrained. After a long time, he swallowed the wine reluctantly, and sighed longly: "I am holding the country ten  For the rest of my life, it has been extremely difficult to drink such a fine wine in the world, and today I have fulfilled my wish."

    Putting down the wine cup, Li Dongyang looked at Qin Kan with a little emotion in his eyes.

    "Back then, a small inner-city household in Jinyiwei was fighting against the East Factory, fighting against eunuchs, fighting against civil servants, fighting against Tatars, fighting against power and traitors fighting against the sky and the earth. In times of desperate situations, everyone in the court said  You have no physique at all, but you just grit your teeth and fight your way out. I have been an official in the court for fifty years, and I have seen countless young and handsome people, and I have also seen countless influential figures rise and fall. You are the only one who is an anomaly.  , Qin Kan, if I say goodbye today, you will be even more lonely in the court in the future"

    Qin Kan's heart trembled, and his eyes suddenly turned red.

    How many people are there in the world who know that he is lonely?

    Who knows what kind of ambitions are hidden in the hearts of the powerful and sycophants in the eyes of the world?  This is an era in which black and white are confused, and loyalty and treachery are not distinguished. Justice in the eyes of the world can only be seen in generous speeches in the court, and in memorials and righteousness. A team of people are sent to raid the homes of loyal and upright ministers, each one more filthy than the last.  , however, as long as they are not defeated, they will always be the pioneers of morality. They represent Confucius and Mencius, and justice. All the glorious and great positive words are represented by them. Those who are not tolerated by them are heretics.  It is evil, and it is the traitor who is the culprit pointed out by thousands of people.

    Li Dongyang is right, Qin Kan is really lonely. This loneliness is not only weak in power in the court, but also spiritual torture. He needs more than just political allies.

    After silently drinking a glass of wine, Qin Kanqiang smiled and said: "When Liu Jin was in power and brought chaos to the court, wasn't he just as lonely?"

    Li Dongyang's eyes suddenly turned red. It was really a dark period of internal and external troubles. The traitors in the DPRK were running rampant and all loyal ministers were killed. The traitors were hostile to him and his colleagues were contemptuous of him. In such days, he, Li Dongyang, couldn't bear to bite him.  Has the tooth survived?

    There was silence in the pavilion for a long time. The two raised their glasses as if they were in sync, and then looked at each other and smiled.

    "With this glass of wine, I would like to offer a poem, 'We will see you when times are poor'."

    Qin Kan hesitated for a moment and sighed: "I hope the world will be peaceful from now on and there will no longer be poverty."

    The two finished drinking and let out a long sigh of relief.

    Li Dongyang pondered for a moment and said: "I know that you have been very busy recently. Captain Jinyi frequently travels between the capital and Tianjin. Tianjin Donggang shipbuilding is in full swing. This is known to everyone in the court. The original expansion of Tianjin was just for the purpose of opening up the city.  The sea ban has paved the way, is the time ripe today?"
