After all, commerce here is a monopoly, and if there is no minister in the court, when you are in the background, I am afraid that these monopoly veteran aristocrats will not be willing to give you profits.

Because behind Li Ming stood Gao Pingzhi, those nobles more or less gave this old nobleman a little face.

After all, everyone is an official in the same court, and they don't see anyone who looks up and looks down, and Gao Pingzhi is the head of Zhongqing, which offends him to death, and I am afraid that it will not be easy to be a person or do things in the court in the future.

Gao Pingzhi begs you today, will you dare to guarantee that you will not be useful to Gao Pingzhi in the future?

What's more, if a Gao Pingzhi wants to share some interests, in the eyes of these nobles, how much can they share? It's not a big deal to cut some meat in pain.

Therefore, Li Ming needs Gao Pingzhi as a backstage to do business here, and if Gao Pingzhi wants to get some monetary gains, he needs the help of Li Ming's huge funds.

Before, Gao Pingzhi couldn't find such a good partner, although he was a nobleman, he couldn't enter for a long time and take a piece of meat from these nobles.

But after Li Ming came, it was different, although the old nobles were unwilling to cut the meat, but in front of Li Ming's huge funds, the interests of Gao Pingzhi were not great, and it didn't matter if they endured the pain.

Gao Pingzhi watched Li Ming take a bite of food, and then took a deep breath: "Brother I came to you today, in fact, I am complaining, I don't know if you, brother, are willing to listen to your brother's complaints!" ”

After Li Ming heard this, his eyes lit up, this favorite thing to be a spy is the whining of people when they are drunk, and people spit out the truth more when they are drunk, and they can often leak some important things.

Li Ming stretched out his hand, held the wine glass, looked at Gao Pingzhi and said, "Brother, if you say so, you are treating me as an outsider!" ”

"Since you say I'm your brother, why can't you be a brother and listen to the complaints?" Li Ming looked at Gao Pingzhi and said.

Gao Pingzhi also picked up the wine glass and collided with Li Ming's wine glass: "Since my brother is willing to listen, then I, the elder brother, am not hypocritical!" ”

"I am a veteran nobleman in Korea, and my ancestors were the domestic slaves of the founding monarch of South Korea, and I did a great job for the founding of South Korea!"

"The Korean monarch did not treat my ancestors badly, he gave my ancestors the official title of Shangqing, although he is not the prime minister, but the status does not have to be too different from the country, my Gao family, that is, from that time, became the nobles of Korea!"

When South Korea was founded, there were a total of five secretaries, which were all people who made outstanding contributions to South Korea, and received rewards, these five people were hereditary pillars of South Korea, although they were five secretaries of state, but in fact, there were two of South Korea's ministers, at that time, after the reform of Shen Buxiao, in order to make the power organ more accurate when dividing the merits, it was not allowed to exceed its authority, and only one was allowed to be allowed in the country, and the official title of the secretary was gradually only allowed to have one.

"Brother, what you said is there, you are the head of the Zhongqing of the Korean Land, the real number three person in the Korean Land, how can you say that this status is not as good as the day by day? In my opinion, brother, your status is far beyond that of your ancestors! Li Ming touted on the side.

Gao Pingzhi sighed: "Brother doesn't know, my ancestors and several other clans were hereditary pillars back then, and now among the five of us, only my family is left alive!" Gao Pingzhi said with a sigh.

Li Ming has some understanding of what Gao Pingzhi said, although the hereditary national pillar, the status of this national pillar is hereditary, although the status of the national pillar is high, but he can't surpass the monarch, when you make a mistake, the monarch says to take you, it's just a matter of one sentence.

Some of the people who inherited the national pillars with Gao Pingzhi died in the reform of Shen Buxian, and the reform would violate the interests of others, and there would be bloodshed, and Shen Buxian's reform executed three national pillars.

And one of them, died in the standing line, that national pillar, is one of Han Hu's teachers, is considered Han Hu's close minister, when Han Hu ascended the throne, he also briefly ruled the government and the opposition in South Korea, but the good times did not last long, after Han Hu was captured, he also lost power, and after Han Ran ascended the throne, he would inevitably liquidate some people.

And the unfortunate goal of that national pillar is the liquidation target, so far only the Gao family is left in the five major pillars.

"Brother, since you are the only one left, this status should be more extraordinary, why should my brother be worried?" Li Ming looked at Gao Pingzhi in front of him and said.

When the Five Great Pillars were still there, the five glories were divided, and now only his family remained, in Li Ming's eyes, this was the glory of his family and the five families.

In Li Ming's opinion, this is a rise in status, if this kind of thing happens to his Li family, he Li Ming will definitely be happy.

However, Gao Pingzhi shook his head: "You are not a person in the court, and you don't follow the monarch's side, you don't know some things!" ”

"One family has five honors, this will indeed make your status rise very high, but will the monarch watch your status rise and threaten his status?"

"The reason why I said that the status of my Gao family is declining is because the monarch will never allow my Gao family to enjoy the glory of the five families alone, in the good case, it is only to deprive my family of the hereditary pillar, and the bad thing is to take my Gao family!" Gao Pingzhi took a deep breath, looked at Li Ming and said.

Gao Pingzhi has been an official for many years, and he knows that accompanying the monarch is like accompanying the tiger, and none of the monarchs are good at stubble, basically they are mean and unkind, ruthless and unrighteous, and pay attention to their own power.

If someone threatens their power, they will not hesitate to get rid of them.

Li Ming was silent, listening to Gao Pingzhi's words, what Gao Pingzhi said was indeed very reasonable, this family enjoys the glory of the five families, which seems to be infinite scenery, but in fact, it hides a deep murderous intention.

He now enjoys the glory of the five families, seems to be beautiful, powerful and powerful, although he is not Shangqing, but his status is no worse than Shangqing, and Guozhu is a group of people with privileges.

There used to be five national pillars divided into five privileges of Korea, and now these five privileges are all in the hands of Gao Pingzhi, although he is the secretary of state, but in fact, because of the title of national pillar, Gao Pingzhi has become a second monarch.

But this two monarchs can't fight the big monarch, although the power is compelling, but in fact it is an empty shell, the officials are afraid of him, but Han Ran is not afraid of him, at least not afraid of him now.

However, after a long time, if Gao Pingzhi is not disposed of, it will really threaten Han Ran's power, but from the current point of view, Gao Pingzhi cannot threaten Han Ran's power.

Because his family enjoyed the power of the five families alone, it didn't take long, although Han Ran had succeeded to the throne for some years, but it was only a while ago that he successfully liquidated that national pillar.
