Chapter 160: One Peach Kills Three Officials
Eunuch Feng's carriage did not rush out of Baihu City and return to Yujing Mountain, but instead slowly strolled around Baihu City.

Suddenly, an ordinary kingfisher landed on the window of the carriage and was caught by Feng Zikuan.

Feng Zikuan looked puzzled and muttered to himself, "Did he really go to the Right General's Mansion?"

Then he shook his head again. This young man was really hard to figure out. He said lies and did what he said, making it hard to tell the loyalty from the treachery.

But that's a good thing.

Only people like this can live long.

After so many years in the palace, although Feng Zikuan didn't know how to govern the world, he knew which people could live long.

And making an ally with people who live longer is much more important than collecting a few taels of silver.

"Go back to the palace."

Feng Zikuan withdrew his hand and let the kingfisher fly away.

As the sky gradually darkened, Baihu City was actually a little quieter than the other three cities. Because of the rules set by the military ancestors, brothels and gambling houses were not allowed to be established here. Therefore, at this time, the descendants of military heroes who wanted to have fun all went out of the city with their confidants, and they would probably not return before dawn.

The Right General's Mansion was still crowded with people, with carriages coming and going. Mei Juncang had a special appearance, and when he drove the carriage, people immediately recognized him and guessed who was sitting in the carriage.

After all, the storm on the night of thunder and lightning a few days ago was too big, and the descendants of the powerful and wealthy in Tianjin were severely warned not to block the carriage pulled by Mei Juncang, and not to die outside, and not to bring disaster to the family!

The annihilation of the entire family of a minister and the exile of three clans were enough to intimidate all the evil spirits in Tianjing.

"law."

Mei Juncang stopped the carriage and Zhou Tieyi got off. This time, even though there was no visiting card, the doorman from the general's mansion came over long ago and said, "It's General Zhou, but do you need me to notify the young master?"

The eldest son of the Right General's Mansion is naturally Yuchi Jing.

Zhou Tieyi smiled and said, "I came here this time to visit the Right General."

The doorman looked embarrassed and said, "The last time you came, half of the flowers and plants in our house died, and they haven't been replanted yet!"
However, he did not dare to delay Zhou Tieyi's matter, so he could only say, "I will report it right away."

Half a cup of tea later, the doorman came trotting over, "Mr. Zhou, please come in, sir."

Zhou Tieyi asked Mei Juncang to hand the carriage over to the doorman for care, and then leisurely cut in line to enter the Right General's Mansion. This time, he didn't have to stand outside for two hours.

After entering the mansion, they walked all the way to the Right General's study. The flowers, plants and trees were all new, and many were still seedlings. Zhou Tieyi even said provocatively, "The flowers and trees in the Right General's mansion are fresh and suitable for the occasion."

The person who had replaced the gatekeeper and was leading the way for Zhou Tieyi was Yuan Chaolong, the steward of the Right General's Mansion. He was a military man, and his temples throbbed when he heard Zhou Tieyi's words, but he didn't dare to get angry in front of Zhou Tieyi. He just led the way a little faster, unlike Yuchi Jing who took him around in circles.

Arriving at Yuchi Pojun's study, Zhou Tieyi and Mei Juncang walked in.

Yuchi Pojun would not give him a good look. Even though he did not let Zhou Tieyi stand outside and asked Changsun to send him the tranquilizing pill last time, he was still reading a book on military strategy this time and did not want to pay any attention to Zhou Tieyi.

There will definitely be no good when this kid comes!
But since Zhou Tieyi dared to come to the mansion, there must be something big going on. Yuchi Pojun thought of the memorial that he had half figured out at the court this morning, so he could only invite Zhou Tieyi in to see what he had to say.
Zhou Tieyi watched Yuchi Pojun reading a military book, ignoring him and not sitting down. He smiled and asked, "Which military book are you reading, old general? I haven't learned the knowledge in the military book very well, so why don't you teach me?" Yuchi Pojun snorted coldly, "I'll give you three sentences. If you can't explain why you're here today, I'll throw you out myself!"

When dealing with this kid from the Zhou family, you must not let him talk any more nonsense!
This kid's mouth is more powerful than that of famous people!
Zhou Tieyi smiled and said only one sentence, "Old General, among the three officials, you are the only one who is not able to write my memorial today, right?"

The words were spoken lightly, but Mei Juncang, who was following Zhou Tieyi, clearly felt a chill coming towards him.

Yuan Chaolong, the steward who was standing outside the study waiting, suddenly saw that the plants he had just planted in front of him looked sickly, and immediately thought to himself, not good!

He thought about it, and then gritted his teeth and called someone over to inform Yuchi Jing to make preparations early.

Yuchi Pojun put down the military book and looked straight at Zhou Tieyi.

Zhou Tieyi didn't care at all. He seemed to be able to see the state of the three officials when they were writing in Cheng'en Hall today.

The Si Lu and Si Min could both write articles, but it would be inappropriate for him to write articles for the Right General no matter how he wrote.

Yuchi Pojun did not glare at him this time. He smoothed his black beard with his hand and said with a smile, "You kid, you came to my study room, you didn't come here to ask for a beating, did you?"

As he said this, he took out the prepared teaching stick from under the desk.

The black stick was round and heavy, and it fell on the desk with a sound like thunder.

"I figured it out last time. It's really hard for me to kill you, but I'm going to teach you a lesson and keep you out of bed for three days. Do you think your father and mother will come to thank me, or will they scold me?"

Zhou Tieyi was not afraid when he saw Yuchi Pojun took out the teaching stick. He smiled and said, "I am here to offer advice to the Right General. How can the Right General bear to hit me?"

If you want to hit me, it's only because you don't want the benefits I give you anymore!
Yuchi Pojun weighed the teaching stick in his broad palm and seemed to be really hesitating. Otherwise, even if he didn't want any benefits today, he would beat this brat up!
Zhou Tieyi’s smile froze.

This ruffian in the army is capable of doing such a thing, but the problem is that now that he has done it, it seems difficult for me to turn against him because of this matter.

Then he said, "This Tianjing Newspaper should have a page left for us military strategists to write about."

Having said that, there are exactly three sentences.

When Yuchi Pojun heard that we, the military strategist, had a plan, he finally stopped weighing the teaching stick in his hand.

In fact, after he came back, he was furious about what was written in the Tianjing News today. In the government, even if he had the strength to move mountains, he had nowhere to use his strength. He had a hard time defending the military strategists' territory, which was increasingly being encroached upon by Confucianism and Legalism.

The "Tianjing News" brought back some bad memories for him. Military strategists are good at wielding knives, but not good at wielding pens!
That's why he let his sons and grandsons study Confucianism. He didn't hope that they would become great Confucian scholars, but hoped that they would switch to studying military science in the future, so that they would know what to do when facing Confucianism!
"Go on."

Yuchi Pojun remained calm. He wanted to hear the real role of the "Tianjing News" in Zhou Tieyi's words, whether it was just what he thought.

Zhou Tieyi said something else, "There are eight pages in total. I won't give any to Confucianists or Legalists, but the right general needs to write a policy paper on it every three days. Write it in vernacular Chinese. Within three years, the number of people who practice my military philosophy should increase by 10%!"

This was a plan to kill three officials with one peach, and Yuchi Pojun had no choice but to be fooled.
