Chapter 27 The way to attack the heart is to judge the situation
In the early morning of the third day, the boat stopped at Luoyang Ferry, and Zong Xin and his party disembarked to bid farewell to Wang Jingchong.Wang Baoyu was reluctant to part with her, and secretly cried several times...

"Zong Xin, are you just here to take advantage of this opportunity? You have been sending people to monitor Wang Jingchong's family. I thought you had other purposes."

Zong Xin smiled lightly and said, "Wang Jingchong is the envoy of Fengxiang Jiedu, and he is about to meet Emperor Yin Liu Chengyou in Kaifeng, so I hope to establish a good relationship with him, it may be useful when we arrive in Kaifeng in the future."

"You really have done all your tricks..."

"Just when you're praising me."

Zhao Kuangyin sighed helplessly, is this still a monk?To do such a crazy thing for a woman...Assassinate Li Shouzhen, how many people in the world envy his martial arts and high status?

It's normal if it's just like this, after all Mrs. Huarui has an alluring appearance, but who wouldn't be tempted by any man?This can only show that Zong Xin is passionate.

But Zong Xin could use all the means to kill Li Shouzhen, but if he didn't do this, even if he used Zong Xin's martial arts to assassinate Li Shouzhen, it would be a dead end.I just feel that this monk is too scary to make people guess.

Zhao Kuangyin was the most touched, Zong Xin seemed to know everything in his mind, and even said that Chai Rong was the emperor, as if he could predict the future.But Zhao Kuangyin could tell that Zong Xin didn't have this kind of ability...otherwise he wouldn't take many risks.This is also something that Zhao Kuangyin has been unable to figure out. Why does Zong Xin say that Chai Rong can be the emperor?

Today, at least [-]% of people believe that Li Shouzhen will rebel and proclaim himself emperor, and Liu Chengyou cannot stop him.The next emperor will be Li Shouzhen.

It's useless to think too much. Zhao Kuangyin looked back at Luoyang Wharf. This is the place where he was born and raised, but he didn't have much affection for Luoyang.

Zhao Kuangyin suffered from a serious illness when he was a child, and after recovering from the illness, his body was weak, and his martial arts were far inferior to his brother's when he was a child, so he was not welcomed at home.Although hard work can make up for weakness, it took Zhao Kuangyin several years to gradually improve his health, but his martial arts did not improve during the years of recuperation, so the people of the Zhao Clan did not have high expectations for him.

In fact, the people of the Zhao Clan don't hate Zhao Kuangyin, they just don't care, because the future of the Zhao Clan rests on Zhao Kuangji, and Zhao Kuangyin becomes dispensable.

"I really don't want to go back to this place. If I can, I'll fight outside, and then I'll go back to the Zhao Clan to raise my eyebrows and tell these old people that I, Zhao Kuangyin, can dominate without the Zhao Clan."

Zong Xin chuckled and said: "Brother Yuen Lang, don't be angry. In fact, what is the small Zhao clan? Isn't the Zhao clan just entrenched in Luoyang and owning several gold mines? The one who can really hold up the facade is your grandfather Zhao Jinghe He has Nine Heavens Qi. If he didn’t have Nine Heavens Qi, Zhao Clan would have been captured by others, wouldn’t it?”

"It makes sense~ it really makes sense."

Zong Xin said with a smile: "Actually, what the poor monk hates the most is the second generation ancestor, relying on the power and power of the family, domineering and domineering. He thought he was capable, but he was actually a moth. Grace lives on."

"You can't say that...my brother practiced hard. It is his hard work that he has today's skill. I feel inferior."

"Bullshit, it's all bullshit." Zong Dao said, "It's just that he was lucky, and he was born in the Zhao clan. If he wasn't born in the Zhao clan, how would he have the opportunity to learn martial arts, let alone the martial arts like Jiutian Zhenqi. No What kind of thing is he with this body of martial arts? Hard work? Pooh."

Thinking of this, Zhao Kuangyin felt much more comfortable. It is true that his brother worked very hard, and everything he has today seems to have been won by himself.But in fact, he was lucky enough to be born in the Zhao Clan, and he was the first born child, otherwise, who would teach him Jiutian Qi?No matter how hard you try, you don't have the chance.

Zong Xin is different, he is just a young monk, and everything he has created so far has been created with his hands.Although there is a master in the temple, the master only taught some basic lightness exercises, and even the Jiuyin Yimai method was stolen by Zong Xin himself to learn.So it is normal for Zong Xin to be dissatisfied.

"According to what you say, I am also a second-generation ancestor?"

"You are different, even if you don't have Jiutian Zhenqi, you still have Chaotic Times Jue and Overlord Spear, and even Sun Moon Promise and Jiuyin Yimai Art. But your brother has nothing but Jiutian Zhenqi, you are much better than him. "Zong Xin's explanation made Zhao Kuangyin very comfortable. He felt that although his skills were slightly inferior, he was much better than his brother Zhao Kuangji.

The Secret of Troubled Times was taught to Zhao Kuangyin by Tianya. In exchange, Zhao Kuangyin taught Tianya the most basic first three levels of Nine Heavens Qi, allowing Tianya to improve his skills.Tianya's Troubled Times Technique was personally taught by Guo Wei, but Tianya's skills were too low to be used, and he only had the first level of mental skills.

After two days of practice, Zhao Kuangyin achieved a little bit of success. Guo Wei's martial arts is really not simple, and it is even more handy to use it with Bawang marksmanship.After all, Guo Wei is also good at using spears, so his mental martial arts are very applicable.

Zong Xin didn't practice Chaotic Times Jue, because it was a set of desperate martial arts, although it was powerful, it hurt the body.Moreover, this mentality seems to be specially prepared for long spears, and Zong Xin doesn't need to use the saber at all.

Zhao Kuangyin led the way, and the group went directly to the gate of Zhao's mansion.Far away in the outskirts of the city, next to it is the military camp of the Zhao Clan, which has hundreds of thousands of soldiers and is rich enough to rival a country.

There were soldiers standing guard outside the gate of the Zhao Mansion, and when they saw someone coming, they immediately stepped forward to inquire.

"who?"

Zhao Kuangyin said depressedly: "Am I not even allowed to enter my own home?"

"Third Young Master? Third Young Master is back, go and report."

Immediately a soldier ran into the house, and after a while a tattooed young man in a white robe came out with a paper fan in his hand.

"Third brother, I miss my brother to death." Zhao Kuangji was so excited that he almost burst into tears, and immediately stretched out his hand and said, "Quickly, hurry up and prepare food and wine for third brother."

Zhao Kuangyin got off his horse and immediately clasped his fists together: "Brother."

"You're welcome." Zhao Kuangji turned his head and took a look, then asked, "This is..."

"The poor monk's name is Zongxin."

"Master Zongxin? A contemporary eminent monk who has attained enlightenment. I never expected that he is so young." Zhao Kuangji cupped his hands and said, "Master, please come quickly."

Zhao Kuangji immediately invited Zong Xin to the mansion, and then ordered people to put on a big drink. After he got the letter, all the people surnamed Zhao were present except Zhao Jing.

Zong Xin is a contemporary holy monk, and his deeds are known to everyone in the world. The Zhao family is more informed, and they have analyzed Zong Xin's value.No matter from which angle you look at it, Zong Xin is a great person worth getting to know.

Zhao Kuangyin immediately introduced: "This is my father, Zhao Hongyin, and my second uncle, Zhao Hongde, you have met before. This is the elder brother Zhao Kuangji, the younger brother Zhao Kuangyi, and the younger sister Zhao Ziyan."

Zong Xin looked around, Zhao Hongyin was over fifty years old, Sanliuhu half-armored, full of heroism, a little anxious, as if he had just returned from outside.Zhao Hongde was dressed as a literati, he looked about the same age as Zhao Hongde, but in fact they were several years apart, because Zhao Hongyin's inner strength was outstanding, so he looked younger.

Zhao Kuangji is only 23 or 4 years old. Although he is dressed as a literati and is polite to others, his appearance is three points similar to Zhao Kuangyin.

Zhao Kuangyi is the same age as Tianya, only 8 or 9 years old.He looks cute, but his temperament is very similar to that of Zhao Kuangji, he is smart and capable.And there was a trace of hatred in his eyes, although no one noticed, Zong Xin could clearly feel it.

Zong Xin was not interested in men, so his eyes were mainly focused on Zhao Ziyan. As Zhao Kuangyin said, she was indeed a beautiful woman, wearing a blue silk dress, with fair and tender skin, a tinge of red from light rouge, and thin eyebrows. The corners of the eyes are slightly raised, the lips are red and the teeth are white, and there are two small dimples when smiling.

It's a pity that he is a little younger, at most 14 years old.When she grows up, she may not be inferior to Mrs. Huarui.Because of the corners of the eyes, this kind of peach blossom eyes is the most attractive to men.

"Master Zong Xin, I have something to ask." Zhao Kuangji was the most impatient, and he spoke immediately before putting down his wine glass.

Zong said: "My son, please tell me."

"A few days ago, I spent 200 taels of silver to drag someone out of the palace of Shu Kingdom to smuggle out a pair of couplets, 'If you can attack your heart, you will disappear on your own side. Since ancient times, you have known that soldiers are not warlike. If you don't judge the situation, you will be lenient and strict. Later, you will rule Shu You need to think deeply." Zhao Kuangji said: "I would like to ask the master why he attacks the heart."

"200 taels of silver?" Zong Xin said in surprise, "The Zhao Clan's family rules allow you to spend 200 taels of silver to buy this pair of couplets?"

"The family rules of the Zhao family are strict, but the 200 taels of silver are worth the money. Even Grandpa Zhao Jing said that I bought a treasure. This couplet is worth a thousand gold, how can a mere 200 taels be said to be expensive? But now everyone knows this couplet, but I still think it It's worth the price."

Zong Xin pointed to Zhao Kuangyin: "Look at other people... Usually I would be reluctant to ask you to spend a tael of silver to treat me to dinner."

All people surnamed Zhao are very embarrassed, because this is the family rule of the Zhao Clan. Never spend the money that can be spent, and try not to spend the money that can be spent... But this kind of family rule is also divided into three or six grades. When you meet Zong Xin For an expert like the master, no matter how much money is spent on him, it is worth it.Zhao Kuangyin's handling of this matter is really embarrassing, but it also proves that the relationship between the two is not shallow, and Zong Xin is not angry but joking.

"Master... the next question?"

"Isn't the answer in this couplet? The way to attack the heart is to judge the situation. You really haven't understood this couplet yet."

"Okay, well said. I would like to offer a toast to the master." Zhao Kuangji did the first thing to respect, and it can be said that he suddenly realized.Sure enough, I still underestimated the value of this couplet. I thought that the upper alliance was about the art of war, and the lower alliance was about governing the country, but it is not that simple.The way to attack the heart is to judge the situation, which is really good advice.

If you want to subdue others' soldiers without fighting, you must give them both kindness and power. This is attacking the heart.There is a degree to be grasped between Enwei and Wei, and this degree is to judge the situation.For each enemy, the ratio between Enwei and Wei is completely different, so it is necessary to grow a pair of discerning eyes, which is the highest level of attacking the heart.

It turns out that the answer I'm looking for these days is in this couplet. There is a treasure in the sky that I don't know how to open. If Master Zong Xin didn't give me some pointers, I'm afraid it would be difficult for me to figure out the relationship between attacking the heart and judging the situation...
