After Yuzhu sat down, Sailer took the initiative to explain his purpose.
"I have always been thinking about Zhongtang, and I specially asked my subordinate to come to greet you, Zhongtang, and ask you to take good care of your body and bones." Sailer said while holding the gift list with both hands.
Wu Jiang was waiting on the side, and he quickly stepped forward, took the gift list with both hands, and then gently placed it in Yuzhu's hand.
The bitch in Sailer's mouth naturally refers to Yuzhu's cousin Tong Jia.
Yuzhu smiled slightly and said: "Thank you cousin for your concern. I am still young and my body is strong."
After some polite exchanges between the two parties, Seiler slowly got to the point.
Sailer pretended to be very concerned and asked Yuzhu: "Zhongtang, there have been a lot of rumors outside recently. I specially let my humble position be given to Zhongtang. Our family will always support Zhongtang." At the end, he deliberately lowered his tone.
.
Yuzhu pursed his lips and smiled. After all, Sailer was a shallow person, and he showed his flaws so quickly.
The so-called exchange of words is the current state.
Objectively speaking, there are at least thirty, if not fifty, cousins across the room from Yuzhu.
In the past, when Yuzhu was still the concubine whom Tong Guowei spurned, Sailer's wife, Tong Jia, had no contact with him.
It wasn't until Yuzhu gained the favor of the old emperor and became Sailer's immediate boss that the two families became very close.
This person, even among brothers, you must be of greater use value, so that your brothers will relax and come to curry favor with you.
Not to mention outsiders!
Everyone is an adult.
Except for your parents, only if someone has an interest in you will they be able to put a lot of thought into you.
Otherwise, it falls into the category of ineffective social networking, which is a waste of time, money and connections.
"Thank you very much for your concern, cousin. Please send Brother Sai to convey my sincere gratitude to my cousin on my behalf." Yuzhu said very frankly, "When I was in office, I offended too many people. Now, everyone is pushing against me.
Just leave it to fate."
Seeing Seiler looking at him with some confusion, Yuzhu added: "I am in control of the house and have no power. At best, they can only take away my title."
As soon as he said this, Sailer immediately understood that Yuzhu was completely lying down and taking a beating.
Come on, whoever wants to bite, just pounce on him and bite him.
Anyway, I don’t care about the so-called title, just take it.
Sailer is also a member of the officialdom. He naturally understands that as long as the old emperor still uses Longkodo, Yuzhu will not have any big problems.
You can't, after treating Yuzhu's serious crime, let Longkodo control the military power in the capital, right?
Logically, it doesn't make sense.
"Zhongtang, please don't be discouraged. We old subordinates have received a lot of favors from you, Zhongtang. We are all willing to say a few words of justice on your behalf." Sailer's statement almost made Yuzhu laugh.
Translated into vernacular, that is, Zhongtang, you old man, must not lie down and let the hammer hit you!
"Thank you dear friends for your care. I am the grandson of the family, and it is a matter of law and order for Ma. There is no need to say more." Yuzhu responded calmly and picked up the tea cup.
Wu Jiang then shouted loudly: "Send off guests!"
After the eviction order was issued, no matter how thick-skinned Seiler was, he could not stay any longer and had to leave in despair.
After Sailer left, Zhou Quan walked up to Yuzhu from behind and said softly: "Dong Weng is devoted to guarding the law for Ma, and he doesn't hear what is happening outside the window. This is a great strategy."
Yuzhu nodded and said: "Anyone who wants to fight with me, starting from Ao Bai and ending with the deposed prince, will not end well."
"Of course." Zhou Quan opened his folding fan and said with a smile, "Not fighting is the biggest fight."
The master and servant looked at each other and smiled, saying nothing.
For more than ten years, Yuzhu has long understood the old emperor's thoughts. If the distance is too close and the power is too heavy, the old emperor will find excuses to suppress him.
After stepping down, if you actively plan to continue to take power, it may only be counterproductive and shoot yourself in the foot.
Yuzhu remained closed-door and stayed at home, watching Sun Chengyun lose his position as supervisor of Chongwenmen and coldly handling the unfavorable situation of being impeached by everyone.
In the final analysis, it’s because of eight words: think from someone else’s perspective and try to figure out what’s best for you.
Soon after Sailer left, news came out from Changchun Garden that Yuzhu was handed over to the ministers of the king for deliberation.
After Longkodo learned the news, he anxiously went to Yuzhu to discuss countermeasures.
Yuzhu smiled slightly and said: "Amma, the duke of the clan is just a false name at best. If you lose this title, it will make you less conspicuous."
Longkodo frowned and said, "Having said that, you have offended so many old Manchu nobles. I'm worried that some evil moth will appear along the way."
"Ama, don't worry. Is it possible that you took me to the clan house and put me in jail?" Yuzhu saw that Longkodo was really worried about him, so he let out a little whisper and said in a low voice, "Uh
The silver in Nie's hand is really too much, but you have to find a good place to hide it."
Longkodo grinned and said softly: "You still need me today, why do you do this?"
This sentence alone shows that Longkodo did not serve as the Admiral of the Nine Sects for so many years in vain.
Objectively speaking, as the old emperor is getting older, he no longer has so much energy to cultivate an absolutely trustworthy confidant who can grant military power.
Now, the old emperor is more troubled. In fact, the important ministers of the imperial court are still very respectful on the surface.
In their bones, everyone gradually violated the old emperor's will in accordance with their own needs to maximize their own interests.
This is like the situation in the animal world, where the old lion king is aging at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the new lion king has not yet taken over.
The battle for the lion king in the animal world always ends with the old lion king being expelled or killed.
To this day, what the old emperor is most worried about is that Yuzhu is too young. If he is not suppressed to a certain extent, there is a chance that another Obai will take the lead.
The reason is actually very simple. Longkodo is already in his sixties, and at most he is just a veteran of two dynasties.
Yuzhu's physical condition has always been very good. As long as he lives long enough, he will be a veteran of the Four Dynasties at least.
What does it mean to be a patriarch of the Four Dynasties? How could an old emperor who has read history books not know?
With Longkodo's knowledge, he could naturally understand the old emperor's intentions. However, he really didn't understand Yuzhu's thoughts.
Yuzhu is not a guy who likes to suffer big losses, so why don't he hum or make a fuss?
Seeing Longkoduo staring at his face and examining something repeatedly, Yuzhu also knew that Lao Long was really losing his temper.
"Amma, if you want to help me get out of trouble, you only need to do one thing secretly."
"What are you doing? Why don't you tell me quickly? Do you want to kill me?"
