He pondered and hesitated: "Isn't this good... eating the emperor's salary and being loyal to the emperor..."

"Hey!" Yeluju laughed.

If others had said this, Yeluju would still believe him.

But he didn't believe what Lu Sili said.

Because Yeluju knew the details of Lu Sili best.

Like him, Lu Sili was promoted by the King of Wei (Yelu Yixin).

After King Wei was defeated, he turned around and tried to squeeze in to the side of the emperor's grandson.

But he didn't squeeze in. In the end, he had no choice but to cling onto Prince Lanling's lap.

The standard grass on the wall falls on both sides when the wind blows.

There is no integrity or backbone at all!

But the level of greed and lust makes even him, Yeluju, willing to be defeated!

Lu Sili swallowed, looked at Yeluju, and asked his last doubt: "Can the Southern Dynasty allow selling people as slaves?"

The scholar-bureaucrats of the Southern Dynasties despised treating humans and animals the most.

It might not matter if one or two people trade quietly in private.

But if there are hundreds or thousands...

The scholar-bureaucrats of the Southern Dynasties may go berserk.

Yeluju laughed: "Why not?!"

"Just think of a way to give Nanchao a step down."

"For example, do it in the name of teeth!"

His outer concubine Li Shishi, who is now in Bianjing, signed a deed with someone from Sangjia Wazi through Yaren, and made the buyer his adoptive father.

Is it natural for an adoptive father to educate his daughter?

Even if she is beaten, scolded and abused, it is all for her own good!

And the daughter pities her adoptive father for being lonely and helpless, so she is willing to become a prostitute, sign a contract with Wazi, and earn money by selling jokes in Wazi. Isn't it reasonable?

Just add a layer of skin in the middle, what a big deal!

Lu Sili was stunned: "Is this okay?"

"It's a contingency!" Yeluju laughed.

Lu Sili nodded: "That's right... scholar-bureaucrats should make contingency plans."

This is indeed done!

Especially for him personally, it can be said to be a matter of public and private concern.

As a civil servant who initiated the use of troops against Goryeo, he could win the favor of the emperor, and he could also reap benefits in the Southern Dynasties.

Of course - the most important thing was Yeluju's words "The cunning rabbit has three caves" that moved him.

Although he was a civil servant and official, he still had the label of King of Wei on his forehead.

He was also afraid that the future emperor grandson would liquidate him.

The cunning rabbit has three caves. It would be really good to find a way to leave a retreat on the southern side!

Therefore, Lu Sili immediately said: "Then the official will write a memorial right now, and then order someone to send it back to Nanjing as quickly as possible!"

"good!"

…

Two hours later.

Yeluju met Xingshu in a secret room in Dutingyi.

After the two met, Yeluju handed a letter to Xing Shu and said, "I would like to ask Bachelor Xing to forward this letter to Yang Yuanwai from Wazi, Sangjia."

Xing Shu was stunned for a moment, but still took it.

Member Yang?

He knew that he was a servant of the Liu family.

The Liu family is Zhang Xianmingsu’s maternal family.

Now, a servant of the Liu family is connected with the Khitan envoy?

Are there any letters exchanged?

If it had happened in the past, this would have been a major event that would break the heavens. Once discovered, the clan would be punished.

But now...

Xing Shu calmly accepted it without asking why.

Because Xing Shu knows very well that the Liu family, Cao family and other relatives are now the emperor's loyal dogs.

Not only did he try his best to cooperate with the emperor's many actions.

They also spent money, people, and efforts to make big moves in the Ordnance Manufacturing Bureau.

Of course, they don’t suffer either!

As Xing Shu knows, the emperor not only gave these people extremely high rewards and many privileges.

In the Jiaozi trade of Song and Liao Dynasties, many orders were specifically assigned to workshops under the names of these relatives and families who had already received certificates of investment.

Therefore, the Liu family must be working for the officials.

Yeluju didn't think too much at all, he was a smart man.

Now that you have made the decision, you will not hesitate again.

What's more, when he returned to Bianjing this time, he also received good news - his concubine Li Shishi, who was raised in Bianjing, was pregnant.

This made him very happy.

I am going to have an heir in the Southern Dynasty!

His children will flourish and flourish in the Southern Dynasty in the future.

In this way, even if something happens to him in the Liao Kingdom in the future, he will not be extinct.

Therefore, when he came to Bianjing this time, his cooperation and enthusiasm were much improved.

Just like this time, he didn't even ask any questions.

As long as the benefits are there and as long as he can make connections, he is willing to take some risks.

"That's right!" After Yeluju handed the letter to Xing Shu, he suddenly asked: "Bachelor, I heard that both the government and the public in your country are now talking about the sage's path of 'studying things to achieve knowledge'!"

"I've also heard people say that in the future, your country's imperial examinations may focus on studying things to gain knowledge?"

"I wonder if this is the case?"

Xing Shu smiled and said: "Studying things to gain knowledge is indeed the way of a saint, and the government and the public in our country are indeed discussing this matter..."

"But as for the imperial examination in the future... I can only say that it will all be decided by the official will!"

"However, among the people who want to "investigate things and gain knowledge", the first person I recommend is Shen Kuo, a close official and confidant of the current official family."

"I heard that in the future, officials may hold a special class in Bianjing Academy to teach 'Studying Things to Learn'!"

"Yeah!" Yeluju nodded and said, "That's good."

"I wonder, is there any hope for Quanzi to become a disciple of Mr. Shen in the future?" He stared into Xing Shu's eyes.

Xing Shu naturally understands.

He immediately smiled and said, "Young Master Ling is extremely talented. I believe that Shen Tiju is very happy to accept such a beloved disciple."

"Good!" Yeluju nodded.

With Xing Shu's promise, he felt relieved.

His children will definitely be able to become masters in the Southern Dynasties in the future.

As for the so-called ‘investigating things to gain knowledge’?

To be honest, Yeluju didn't care at all.

In Yeluju's eyes, this was just the Southern Dynasties bragging about themselves.

Yesterday's Bianjing Newspaper article "Investigating Things to Know" can "explain the truth of all things in the world", which seems unreal.

You can coax children, but want to deceive adults? Dream on!

However, since the Southern Dynasties attached great importance to this matter, then the future imperial examinations may focus on this matter.

If this is the case, then of course he, Yeluju, has to pave the way for his descendants.
