I'm the villain in the book

Page 190

Liang Zhen frowned and asked, "How can one state have as many troops as five states?"

Wei Changtian smiled and asked back: "Haha, Uncle Liang, what do you think is a war?"

"Of course it's the strategy of the general and the strength of the soldiers!" Liang Zhen replied without hesitation.

"That's true, but in my opinion..."

Wei Changtian smiled: "Money is what you fight in wars."

"money?"

Everyone was taken aback, except Chu Xianping who was sitting in the corner nodded slightly.

"Yes, it's money."

Wei Changtian continued on this side: "Since it is a war, at least one side must have tens of thousands of people."

"With so many people, how much food and grass do you need to eat a day? How much military pay? How many weapons are consumed?"

"The court is rich right now, but what about the state capitals?"

"Can they still be richer than the Xu family?"

"Besides, over the years, the Xu family must have accumulated countless rare treasures besides silver."

"With these treasures, it's not difficult to hire a few experts from the green forest, right?"

"Not to mention too much, as long as the Xu family can have three or four more second-rank masters, will the situation be different?"

"This......"

Now that Liang Zhen understood Wei Changtian's meaning, he couldn't help asking: "Changtian, then according to your intention... can the Xu family still succeed?"

"It is impossible to succeed with a high probability."

Wei Changtian shook his head in "self-denial": "After all, the strength of a family cannot compete with a country. If the Xu family has no backup, failure will only happen sooner or later."

Liang Zhen was puzzled: "Then why didn't we break up with them earlier?"

"Uncle Liang, whoever wins or loses between the Xu family and the imperial court has nothing to do with us? Our opponent is only the Liu family."

Wei Changtian took a sip of tea and said with a smile, "As long as it's beneficial to this matter, there's nothing we can't do."

"As for settling accounts after the autumn...hehe, if that day comes, the emperor can find any reason."

"..."

As soon as these words came out, both Chu Xianping and Chen Bo instantly understood what Wei Changtian, or what the Wei family wanted to do.

Only Liang Zhen still looked puzzled, obviously not wanting to understand the meaning of these words.

Good guy, my uncle is really a standard warrior head, only suitable for fighting...

Wei Changtian shook his head and turned his gaze to Chu Xianping.

The latter immediately leaned over to explain the mystery to Liang Zhen in a low voice, while Wei Changtian stretched himself, opened the door and walked out of the study.

For safety reasons, his office is no longer at home, but directly moved to the state office.

Although it is indeed much easier to deal with things, the downside is that you can't just look up and see Yingying Yanyan laughing and busy in the small courtyard.

Pooh!

Now I am a person who has to do big things, how can I still be addicted to women all day long like before!

But then again, it's been a long time since I had a good workout with Yang Liushi and Yuan'er.

or......

"Zhang San!"

"Sir, I am here."

"Prepare the car! Go home!"

"Yes."

Just do what you say, Wei Changtian can indeed be called vigorous and resolute in terms of "movement".

He walked towards the gate of the state government office, and at the same time looked up at the sky that was almost dusk.

Thousands of miles of depression, yellow clouds at sunset.

Although he and Wei Xianzhi kept writing letters now, the situation in the capital was changing rapidly, and he was always worried from time to time, fearing that the next letter he received would be the last letter of his cheap father.

But with Wei Zhaohai around, there shouldn't be any major problems.

By the way, since Zimuyu has the function of real-time communication, should I invent a set of "Chinese code" or the like, so that I can save the time of sending letters back and forth in the future, and truly achieve instant messaging...

After thinking wildly in my heart for a long time, I slowly looked away from the sky.

But at this moment, an old eunuch standing in front made Wei Changtian stop instantly.

Ok?

Li Huaizhong?

Chapter 217 Do you have any questions?

In the state government office, in a living room.

When meeting Li Huaizhong for the third time, Wei Changtian's attitude was completely different from the previous two times.

The first time we met was when Ning Qingyu had just been exterminated. At that time, the old eunuch could kill himself at will, so he was extremely cautious in his words and deeds, for fear that if he made a wrong step, he would step into the abyss of eternal doom.

The second meeting was before the Spring Dragon Poetry Club. At that time, I had a huge amount of system points in my pocket, and I could kill Li Huaizhong at will, so the nervousness of the first time had long since disappeared.

And this time...

Now that it is known that everything before is Ning Yongnian's conspiracy, Wei Changtian now has the mentality of "I will do my best to cooperate with you in the performance", and decides to play with Li Huaizhong to see if he can get some useful ideas from him. information out.

"Eunuch Li, I haven't seen you for a long time, what kind of wind brought you here?"

Leaning on the back of the chair, Wei Changtian had a smile on his face: "Isn't the emperor going to conquer Jizhou by himself? Don't you need your father-in-law to follow?"

"Mr. Wei is well-informed, but his memory is too bad." Li Huaizhong squinted his eyes.

"Huh? Poor memory?"

"Oh! I remember!"

Wei Changtian slapped his thigh as if suddenly enlightened: "My father-in-law is talking about making up for the lack of yin and yang skills!"

"Humph!"

Li Huaizhong snorted and raised his eyes to look over: "Young Master Wei, it would be boring to ask questions so knowingly. Our family is here today for this matter, and I ask you to fulfill your promise."

"Um......"

Wei Changtian looked back with a half-smile, playful: "Eunuch Li, what if I say no?"

"Mr. Wei! Why don't you really think our family dare not take you?!"

Li Huaizhong's face instantly became gloomy.

But before he got angry, Wei Changtian suddenly laughed and said in the next second: "Hahaha, father-in-law, I'm just kidding you."

"I'm the person who keeps my promises the most, and I definitely can't do such a thing as turning my face and denying my account."

"..."

Li Huaizhong seemed to think the joke was not funny, but continued to stare at Wei Changtian without saying a word.

But the latter didn't feel embarrassed, coughed dryly and continued talking.

"Hey, father-in-law, you have to listen carefully, I'll start talking now."

"Yin-yang kung fu is an extremely mysterious kung fu method. Men practice yang kung fu and women do yin kung fu. Only eunuchs can practice yin and yang together..."

Instead of using euphemistic words such as "eunuch" and "eunuch", he directly called Li Huaizhong an "eunuch"... Although this is true, the irony in it is very obvious.

A murderous intent flashed across Li Huaizhong's muddy pupils, but he soon suppressed it again, and interrupted coldly:

"Young master Wei, you don't need to talk about these things, you just need to tell me how to solve the disadvantages of this yin and yang kung fu."

"Elder-in-law, don't worry, don't I want to take it step by step?"

Wei Changtian curled his lips, took another sip of tea from the teacup, and then opened his mouth slowly and unhurriedly.

"Eunuch, Yin Yang Gong itself has no disadvantages, and normal people will not encounter any hidden diseases when practicing."

"It's you that's the real problem."

"I?"

Li Huaizhong was taken aback, and quickly asked: "What's my question?!"

"Elder-in-law, do you still need me to ask you any questions?"

Wei Changtian glanced at an indescribable part of the latter's body, regardless of Li Huaizhong's suddenly tense palm, and continued talking on his own.

"In terms of qi transformation, yin and yang form their own images, and they are opposites. Hardness and softness, cold temperature, life and death, must be opposed and enmity."

"Yin and Yang can both generate and restrain each other."

"Elder-in-law, although it is beneficial for you to practice both yin and yang skills at the same time, the yin and yang qi are mixed in your body, and hidden diseases come from this."

"Of course there is a way to remedy it. The simplest way is to abolish half of your internal strength and leave only one of Yin and Yang. The hidden disease will naturally be cured."

"And if you don't want to give up this half of your internal strength, then you can only..."

"What can I do?!"

Li Huaizhong's breathing suddenly became rapid, and his body even leaned forward sharply due to excitement.

What he said just now proves that Wei Changtian is indeed very familiar with Yin-Yang Kungfu, so there is a high probability that this method of cracking it will be true.

Just like a patient suffering from uremia who finally found a suitable kidney source, Li Huaizhong, who was suffering from hidden diseases, wished he could pry Wei Changtian's mouth wider so that the latter could immediately finish the second half of the sentence.

But Wei Changtian let out a "huh" at this moment, and shook his head as if remembering something.

"Eunuch, I can't tell you right now."

"what?!"

Li Huaizhong stood up abruptly, his ferocious face could no longer hide any expression.

"Young Master Wei! What do you mean?!"

"what for?"

Wei Changtian was "confused": "Eunuch, didn't we agree before?"

"As long as I can verify that the Liu family's conspiracy is true, I can tell you the way to make up for the shortcomings of Yin Yang Gong."

"What happened to the group of wandering monks from Folian Temple who suddenly appeared at the Kechunlong Poetry Meeting?"

"Eunuch, you didn't tell me this in advance."

"And since my father-in-law only told me half of it, then I only tell him half of it now...is it reasonable?"

"Reasonable?!"

Li Huaizhong laughed back angrily: "The people from Folian Temple were not found by the Liu family, so how can it be counted as part of the Liu family's conspiracy?!"

"Ok?"

Hearing this, Wei Changtian suddenly squinted his eyes, and his tone became extremely cold in an instant.

"Eunuch... how do you know that the people from Folian Temple were not found by the Liu family?"

"I!"

In less than half a breath, Li Huaizhong already understood that he had slipped up.

But he reacted very quickly, and immediately shook his sleeves and sneered:

"If Folian Temple really belonged to the Liu family, why didn't they attack you?!"

"How can you sit back and watch the members of the Liu family be killed by you and remain indifferent?!"

"Young Master Wei, no one can see such an obvious thing!"

"You use this as a reason for not wanting to fulfill your previous promise. Are you making fun of our family?!"

Li Huaizhong's anger was half-truth and half-fake at this time, his eyes were fixed on Wei Changtian like a poisonous snake, as if he was going to kill someone at any moment.
