Zhang Han was left speechless by Gu Xun's words. He could only smile bitterly a few times, pretending not to know, "This... I don't know the final general."
"However, the general feels that having the National Master in charge of the Shadow Guard is the best choice."
Gu Xun did not continue to force Zhang Han to reveal the key point, and started talking to himself:
"Zhang Han, do you think... is it appropriate for a prince to take sides?"
Zhang Han's eyelids couldn't help but twitch. Although Gu Xun didn't ask him directly, it was not too different.
But it’s not enough for him to keep pretending to be dead and not answer any questions. If he’s not lucky, Gu Xun might just have a whim and kill him for real.
"I don't dare to say anything about the crown prince's affairs, but I feel that as a minister, I should only be loyal to the king." Zhang Han expressed his position simply and straightforwardly, hoping that Ji Guxun would give up.
But it was obviously impossible. Gu Xun continued to make insinuations and said, "Theoretically speaking, your statement is correct."
"However, reality is much more complicated than theory!"
"The superior naturally does not like his subordinates to take sides, so doing nothing and only being loyal to the present is the most appropriate choice in the short term. It will not offend the emperor or anyone who may be in that position.
Candidate for the crown prince."
"But in this case, we have to bear the risk of being liquidated after the new king takes the throne."
"If you don't take sides, you won't be actively liquidated, but you can't avoid being passive."
"There are a number of seats in this imperial court. Those who stand in line and make the right bet will naturally be rewarded. Those who do nothing or stand in the wrong line must make way for them."
"At that time, if you are unlucky enough to block someone else's promotion path, it is inevitable that you will be pushed aside."
The so-called emperor and ministers of one dynasty are nothing more than this.
There are risks in taking sides, and there are risks in standing on the fence. The transfer of power at the top of a country will inevitably affect everyone in the political system, and the higher the position, the more serious the impact will be.
This is the truth, and Zhang Han knows it very well.
Anyone with a bit of ambition will have to step aside when the time comes to take sides.
It’s impossible not to end up, your peers are forcing you to get involved!
But the problem is that Ying Zheng is only in his twenties now. Even if people in this era generally have short life spans, it is still too early.
The king doesn’t even have a legitimate son, so where does he stand?
I know that you are the teacher of the eldest son Fusu, but... But this is too anxious, is it necessary?
Zhang Han felt it *hurt* but he had to give a response, so he had to pretend to be stupid for the time being:
"The general doesn't quite understand, what does the Imperial Master mean by saying this?"
Zhang Han breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time he was also surprised that after Gu Xun reached this point, he stopped forcing him any further and said calmly:
"Haha, it doesn't matter if you don't understand now, but when it's time to understand, I hope you won't continue...'not understanding'."
Zhang Han didn't know why, so he thought it was Gu Xun who was paving the way for the eldest son Fusu in advance. He nodded and responded vaguely, "The general has written it down, and... many thanks to the Imperial Master for the advice."
When Gu Xun saw Zhang Han's behavior, he also knew what he was thinking.
He didn't mean to correct or refute anything. As far as the current situation is concerned, it doesn't matter if Zhang Han maintains this idea.
In fact, Guxun is not for the Fusula people.
Just like Zhang Han's thoughts, it is too early to prepare for the inheritance, and there is no need to focus on Zhang Han, who is still a minor figure.
Moreover, winning over people mainly depends on inducement, not coercion, let alone pure verbal coercion like Gu Xun.
Going back to the source, the reason why Gu Xun did this lies in the question he originally raised, which was Ying Zheng’s idea.
Gu Xun wouldn't think that just because Ying Zheng wore the aura of the First Emperor, he was as smart as a demon, like someone who seemed to be able to count a hundred steps by taking one step.
But such a person would not make some decisions casually in a flash of his mind, such as making him the Crown Prince and Tutor while also serving as Fusu's teacher, or letting him temporarily lead the special force of the Shadow Guards. p>
Especially when Gu Xun confirmed that Ying Zheng actually had deep fatherly love and expectations for Fusu.
Among these decisions, Gu Xun is not the key, his official position is not the key, and Zhang Han and the Shadow Secret Guard who are involved are not the key, only Fusu...
Fusu is the most important.
Zhang Han is an out-and-out smart man, but even smart people will inevitably make wrong judgments when they don’t have enough information.
The things he masters are completely different from Ying Zheng, and they can't even be compared with Gu Xun, who has opened up the future.
Therefore, Gu Xun needs to remind him early.
In fact, he felt that he had already warned him last time, but Zhang Han was more cautious than he thought, and it did not have the desired effect, so he took advantage of this opportunity to reveal the old things again in a more explicit way.
Mentioned it once.
Although it may scare Zhang Han, Gu Xun believes that the effect should be good enough.
In this way, sufficient effects can be exerted at the right time.
………………
On the same night, under the dark clouds covering the moon, the sun looked a little dull.
Of course, the cover of the sun at night cannot change the lighting of the lights. The lively places are still lively, brightly lit, and colorful, such as the recently added Pan-Sale Gold Cave Complex - the banks of the Weishui River.
This is the night before BC... Unfortunately it only exists in an imaginary world, please do not associate it with real history.
However, this is only a small part of the area, and more places still maintain the coldness and desolation of the night, silent and unpopular.
At this time, it was less than ten hours since Gu Xun left Xianyang, and Yan Dan's plan started tonight.
Theoretically, if he is fast enough, he can run out of the most dangerous area in one night and reach the area where the Mo family can help him.
If he could launch the plan one day in advance, he might be able to persuade Gu Xun to help him personally (Yan Dan thinks so), but unfortunately... the time for the start of the plan is not something he can decide on at the drop of a hat. p>
The members of the Royal Guards who patrolled the night, the masters he selected to accompany him to protect him, the appropriate timing of action given by Feiyan, and the time point in time when the Mo family could cooperate with the response...etc., etc., all need to be arranged and selected.
An optimal public area.
He could only settle for today, and he could only give up the opportunity to directly get help from Gu Xun (still what he thought).
Fortunately, the conditions Gu Xun agreed to have not been compromised in his opinion at present. Luo Wang and the Yin Yang family have both had some troubles, and the helpers who were supposed to come have all come as promised.
The three people were uniformly dressed in night clothes, with their heads and faces covered. Their faces could not be seen, and there was no way of knowing who they were. They could only be roughly judged to be three tall and thin men. Two of them had empty hands, and the third one was behind them.
