"Grandpa... this... that... what's going on with the baby kiss?" Zuo Wuji carefully pulled Zuo Xiang aside and asked Zuo Xiang in a low voice.
The left prime minister said with a smile on his face: "How do I know what's going on? It's just that these old bastards want you to be their grandson-in-law. They're just making it up...everyone is telling lies with their eyes open.
But you still accuse others of telling lies, you are just a bunch of ungrateful people."
"Gah!" Zuo Wuji was stunned when he heard this.
How could something like this be fabricated casually?
"Prime Minister Zuo, you are old and have forgotten it for a moment. I don't blame you for this. When your daughter-in-law was pregnant, my daughter-in-law happened to be pregnant too. That's what we said at that time..." An old man said plausibly:
"...Although you have forgotten, I still remember it. Now I have to keep my word..."
This was so true that even Zuo Wuji felt that this old man was too shameless.
This is clear: if you say there is, there is. If you say there is no, there is!
That's how dependent it is.
"No, it was clearly me and Lao Zuo who told me so at the beginning." Another old man jumped to his feet: "Or... Lao Zuo, you are not interesting enough. You actually promised a grandson to several families. You really don't do things like this...
"
Prime Minister Zuo stared and silently pulled off a strand of his beard.
What did he say?
Why do you think I am not interesting enough when you talk about it? I am clearly an outsider, okay?!
How dare you forcefully drag me into the game?
Okay, okay, do you really think that I am a good man who can be bullied?
"Do you old guys still have any conscience? At that time, none of you knew about Wuji's health. You all covered your granddaughters tightly, for fear that I would see them and come to propose marriage. It was hard to
I refuse because I am afraid that your granddaughters will be left as widows... Now you actually have the nerve to confuse right and wrong in front of me, trying to hide the truth from the truth, I bah..."
The left prime minister finally broke out, and even used a very rare swear word. I wonder if he has a tacit understanding with a certain grandson.
Zuo Wuji's face was full of black lines: "Grandpa, let's think about business first... His Majesty is still waiting over there. If we continue to delay like this, His Majesty will definitely be dissatisfied and even think that we are doing something behind our backs.
It's a shameful thing to use His Majesty's hands to suppress officials and then use them for his own purposes... Marriage is a lifelong event, so how can we rush it? It won't be too late for us to discuss it slowly... Anyway, my grandson
You are still young and have plenty of time..."
Upon hearing this, Prime Minister Zuo's expression changed slightly, and he nodded repeatedly: "That makes sense, that makes sense. I'm old and can't think of anything like this."
The other four old men also knew that what Zuo Wuji said was reasonable, so they had no choice but to stop arguing about this matter. They just muttered: "You are still young, but girls are different from you. My granddaughter will be here in a few years."
But you are not young anymore. If it weren’t for the baby marriage you arranged with your grandfather back then, based on the character and appearance of my husband and granddaughter, countless people who propose marriage would have trampled the threshold. You kid is so blessed that you don’t know how to be blessed..."
The other old man spat fiercely, and said in a tone that was extremely contemptuous: "You old bastard really dare to say that...your granddaughter is only seven years old this year...she won't be young in a few years? But I
I really don’t understand whether what you call that year was seven years ago, or ten or twenty years ago..."
The old men always understood the priorities and finally stopped saying weird things, but all of them had their eyes fixed on Zuo Wuji.
Obviously, I want to hear what this young man has to say.
"Wuji, this matter was initiated by you, and these people were all impeached by you; we want to hear first what you really think."
Zuo Wuji pondered for a moment: "This matter can be big or small, and the methods of handling it are also different. However, the reason why I raised this matter at this time is not out of momentary indignation or out of anger.
He is reckless and impulsive, but has his own considerations and plans."
"What are you considering? What are your plans?"
"There is no other reason, it's just because of the current general trend of the world, there has been an opportunity to unify the world!" Zuo Wuji said: "Commander Ye Nantian, the battle in Northern Xinjiang has been completely completed.
The end of the prairie wolf eradication, which has been the most serious threat to the grassland for many years, no longer exists. This is one of them."
"Secondly, after the battle at Tiefengguan, Ye Xiao won a complete victory and even recovered all the lost territory. He shocked the world. Prince Lan Feng heard the sword chant and vomited blood and fell into coma. It was said that he was dying... at least for a short period of time.
Since the Blue Wind Empire was unable to recruit more troops to fight, the only general that the Blue Wind Empire could consider was Yang Wanli. More importantly, after this battle, the Blue Wind Empire had lost more than 1.5 million troops.
With such a loss, the national treasury will definitely be empty. They don’t have super wealthy people like Lingbao Pavilion to provide military expenses for free. This is undoubtedly a good opportunity for our Chen Emperor Empire to make progress."
"To the east, although the Tianyu Empire did not lose much troops in this battle, it is still an imperial war and will last for a long time. After Zhan Qianshan retreats this time, he is destined to be unable to fight again for at least a few years."
"Only our Chen Emperor Kingdom has suffered a lot of losses, but our biggest advantage is that our treasury is more than sufficient! For now, we are the most powerful among all the countries!"
"So, the opportunity to unify the world depends on how we operate in the past few years."
"At a time like this, those ministers in the court who are jealous of the wise and capable, and only know how to plan their own interests every day, are no longer adaptable, and even more unfit to stay in their current positions."
"So, we must create a big purge, clean the entire court, and drive out all these guys who are just eating corpses! Only then can we proceed with our steps to unify the world. I said before that Marshal Ye Xiao did not dare to hand over his own back.
To those people, so do we.”
"Once this opportunity is missed, it doesn't even take too long, even if it is just missed for a year, then our steps to unify the world will be seriously delayed, and we may have to work harder for ten, decades or even a hundred years, several generations.
Your efforts will be of no avail, and it may even be impossible to dominate the world again!"
Zuo Wuji said: "This is the real purpose of my petition for impeachment this time. Although the opportunity is right in front of us, once it is missed, it will be difficult to recover."
"Perhaps in times of peace, these people could turn a blind eye and let them govern the country. After all, although these people are greedy and shameless, they still have some ability to manage internal affairs."
"But now is the time when we need to forge ahead with determination, and these people are by no means such talents. They have a way of holding back. Therefore, the general trend is that we can only replace them."
"When these positions are vacated, those who are capable will be promoted and those who are mediocre will be demoted. Those who cannot survive will be killed. Everything is based on the premise of leveling the world. Anyone who stands in the way will be killed without mercy!"
