"Your Majesty, is it really worth doing this?"
Zhang Tu hesitated for a moment, then asked.
"Master Taifu, do you know what King Wu Liu Bi has been doing in recent years?"
Liu Deng considered his words, looked into Zhang Tu¡¯s eyes and asked seriously.
"he¡¡"
Zhang Tu was stunned for a moment, but he didn¡¯t know how to answer.
"Let me tell you, he is cooking salt from the sea and mining copper to cast money. He uses these to make huge profits and continues to recruit troops. You say he is a vassal king. What does he want to do?"
Liu Deng said in a calm tone.
"The king means"
Zhang Tu is also a veteran, so of course he understands what Liu Deng wants to say.
There were only two of them in the hall, and he suddenly felt that the man in front of him was really not the student who had grown up with him.
"I don't have any interest, and I don't have that many ambitions. I just want to be a happy prince and pass on the throne!"
After all, Zhang Tu was a tutor sent by the imperial court, even though he had been in Dai for so many years, and he had been friends with Liu Deng¡¯s cheap father for many years.
"However, it is still necessary to show the loyalty that should be shown, and at the same time, it can dispel the doubts that should not be in the old man's heart.
"Your Majesty, have you heard anything?"
Zhang Tu¡¯s heart moved and he asked.
"Someone in the court has long advocated reducing the vassalage, and that person is the prince's teacher. Does the prince really not know?"
Chao Cuo, even though he is still an inconspicuous retainer of the prince, he is by the prince's side day and night.
His ideas and theories were preached in the prince's ears day and night. A few years later, when Emperor Wen died and Emperor Jing came to the throne, the policy of reducing vassal status was implemented with great fanfare.
"If I don't take the opportunity to get involved with Emperor Jing now, when my uncle really starts to show his power, he will really be disowning his relatives!"
"Your Majesty, I am confused about this matter. Let's do everything according to your Majesty's ideas. From now on, if your Majesty gives you any orders, I will obey them!"
Zhang Tu thought for a moment and suddenly saluted Liu Deng with a smile.
It seems that this is a sign of surrender and a recognition of Liu Deng's ability. Liu Deng finally breathed a sigh of relief. At least this old boy will not have to prick himself with golden needles.
"Your Majesty, Taifu, has been working hard these days. Why don't I send someone now to take Mr. Taifu back home to rest!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Liu Deng hurriedly ordered people to prepare carriages and horses, and sent Zhang Tu to recover and rest.
While they, the monarch and his ministers, were whispering, the two unlucky city defenders finally arrived at the gate of the Zhang family.
"Zhang Tu, you old man, the king has become like this, and you are still hiding at home and refusing to see anyone. Are you worthy of the late king? Are you worthy of the court? Get out of here!"
Sun Deyi risked his life today. In normal times, how could anyone dare to compete with Zhang Tu like this?
"After all, Zhang Tuke was also a Confucian, and he was definitely second to none in Dai Kingdom in terms of knowledge and official position.
¡°Moreover, Zhang Tuke also held the position of Prime Minister of Dai State. Although he preferred to be called Taifu, he still held the power of promotion among officials.
Even if Liu Deng wanted to promote one of them, he would have to get Zhang Tu¡¯s nod.
But today, Sun Deyi felt that he was standing on the moral high ground. He was yelling at him while his colleagues only dared to give him encouragement.
This gave him the illusion of being a leader. However, despite him cursing here for more than half an hour, there was no response from the Zhang family compound.
Except for the very beginning, when an old servant came over and said that the master was not at home, surprisingly, no one came out to ask.
"My lords, I have been ordered to convey the words of the Grand Tutor"
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone's eyes immediately focused on him.
Wang Er's calf muscles have begun to twist. He is just a small soldier. These big shots in front of him usually don't look at him.
"You said you came to convey the words of the Grand Tutor? Where did you meet the Grand Tutor?"
Although Tingwei Wang Shi couldn't stand Sun Deyi, he had to admit that this kid was really talented today. He originally had a spectator mentality, waiting to see Zhang Tu couldn't stand the abuse and come out to clean up the mess.
But I didn¡¯t expect that the old guy really didn¡¯t seem to be at home!
"Reporting to Lord Tingwei, we are the guards of the West City Gate, the Master Taifu we just met at the city gate!"
Wang Zhiqiu replied tremblingly.
"What did Master Taifu say? Give me the report verbatim!"
Sun Deyi immediately stepped forward, grabbed Wang Er by the collar, and asked fiercely.
"Tai, Tai, Taifu said"
Wang Er was already very nervous. He almost peed his pants when he was frightened like this. How could he have the courage to continue talking!
"What did you say? You actually said it!"
Sun Deyi pushed him to the ground and asked with some hatred.
"Tai, Tai, Taifu said, let me tell you, if you get away from him, he will have no time to talk to you"
After Wang Er finished speaking, he was already sweating profusely.
"W-what did you say?"
Sun Deyi was stunned for a moment. Did the old man know that he was scolding him?
I have been stuck in traffic for a long time, but it turns out that the person is not at home. This is really embarrassing!
"The Master Taifu said, if you want to die, get away. He has no time to talk to you"
Wang Er swallowed hard and said it again.
The officials next to him immediately started whispering, and they all looked at Sun Deyi as if they were looking at a fool.
"Okay, you can go back after the oral message is delivered!"
No matter what, these two guys severely damaged Sun Deyi's face today, which made Wang Shi feel very happy.
"Goodbye, little farewell, farewell little!"
Wang Eryi Gulu stood up, saluted to Wang Shi, and disappeared in a flash.
"Alright, gentlemen, since the Tutor has already sent word, he must have his own plans, so let's go back and make preparations first!"
Wang Shi said, and turned around and left first. The remaining officials looked at each other in confusion, and finally dispersed, leaving only Sun Deyi alone
¡°Prince, don¡¯t worry, we¡¯ll start taking action when we get back!¡±
"What Lao Zhao said is right, let's take action now, and within a few days, there will be no more salt sold in Daiguo!"
In Wang Shengzhi's mansion, several big businessmen who were full of food and wine, dressed in disheveled clothes, hugged the woman in their arms, expressing their loyalty to Liu Xian.
"If that's the case, I'd like to thank you all. If there is no news from me, please be careful about your own goods. If anyone makes a mistake, don't blame me for being rude!"
