Chapter 875 Who will be appointed by the imperial edict?
During the Chinese New Year, the emphasis is on welcoming people and sending them off in a lively and lively way.
During the festival, Yuzhu people sit at home, and old subordinates and new subordinates come one after another.
When Yuzhu was visiting guests, Hongxi was very sensible and never came to disturb him.
However, when Yuzhu invited the guests for a banquet and saw them off, Hongxi would always pretend to have met him by chance and stand by the roadside at the right moment.
To be honest, the people who are qualified to let Yuzhu stay at the banquet cannot be ordinary people.
These people are either Yuzhu's confidants or high-ranking officials in important positions.
Hongxi's posture was very low, she bowed down to salute everyone she saw, and she kept saying flattering words to compliment her.
As time went by, people around Yuzhu were full of praise for Hongxi.
This person, as long as you are willing to say nice things to others, you won't have to worry about being unpopular.
After all, Hongxi was the old emperor's favorite grandson. His courteous and virtuous corporal, even if it was just pretending, made people feel very comfortable.
In the old TV series "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Cao Ah Man was washing his feet in the military tent. When he heard that Xu You was coming to surrender, he deliberately went barefoot and ran out to greet him.
It's too late to meet him, which is not enough to describe Ah Ma's ecstasy.
Xu You gained great psychological satisfaction and sold all Yuan Shao's military secrets to Cao Ah Man without any psychological burden.
However, Xu You never dreamed that one day, Cao Ah Man couldn't bear it anymore and simply chopped off his head and used it as a night pot.
Sun Chengyun came to visit with his son Sun Wufu. After Hongxi learned the news, he rushed over without hesitation.
"Excuse me, uncle." As soon as Hong Xi entered the door, he Zha Qian paid his respects to Sun Chengyun.
Although Sun Chengyun claims to be Heshuo's consort, in fact, he is still a royal minister, not a serious member of the royal family.
"I can't do it, I can't do it!" Sun Chengyun was so panicked that he waved his hands repeatedly and turned sideways to avoid Hong Xi's Qianli.
Regarding the back-and-forth between Hongxi and Sun Chengyun, Yuzhu remained a cold observer, laughing and saying nothing.
Yuzhu knew what he was doing, and Hongxi was a truly sensible person.
In the capital city, as long as there are people who know a little bit about the overall situation, who doesn't know that Sun Chengyun is the shadow of Yuzhu?
Respecting Sun Chengyun means respecting Yuzhu. This logic is generally correct in the current environment.
Besides, although Sun Chengyun is a foreign minister, he is after all the consort of the ninth daughter of the emperor and Princess Shuo Jingjing.
Princess Heshuo Jingjing is indeed Hongxi's uncle, there is no doubt about this.
In private situations, Hongxi calls Sun Chengyun uncle, which is in line with the tradition of filial piety in ethics.
However, before Yin Reng was deposed, Princess Heshuo Jing was just one of many aunts in Hong Xi's eyes, no different from a passerby.
Attachment and indifference are just one word difference.
How they treat you depends entirely on whether they want something from you.
After Sun Chengyun sat down, what was surprising was that Hong Xi took the initiative to stand behind him.
With such a small gesture, Sun Chengyun could fully understand its profound meaning.
Uncle, nephew, you and I are actually one family!
Yuzhu picked up the tea cup and took a sip. He pretended not to have seen the interaction between Hongxi and Sun Chengyun.
To be honest, the closer Hongxi's performance is to perfection, the less likely Yuzhu is to support his ascension to the throne.
There was no other way. There was a fourth child in front of Hongxi who was better at performing and gave a classic demonstration first?
The rabbit is dead and the dog is cooked, the bird is gone and the bow is hidden!
It is better to believe in no one than yourself!
With Hongxi present, Yuzhu and Sun Chengyun naturally could not talk about important court affairs, but could only talk about romance.
When it was time for lunch, Hongxi was even more attentive and took the pot to pour the wine himself.
Afraid of comparison, Sun Chengyun turned to look at his son Sun Wufu who was sitting around doing nothing, and couldn't help but give him a sharp look.
After the banquet, Hongxi very wisely invited Sun Wufu to his courtyard.
After Hongxi and Sun Wufu's figures disappeared, Sun Chengyun immediately stopped his smile and said coldly: "If you want to support him, don't blame me for speaking harshly. Sooner or later, you and I will die without a burial place.
"
Yuzhu touched his chin, smiled slightly, and said, "Then tell me, who should we support?"
"Hmph, I don't care what you think. Anyway, I think Lao Twenty is pretty good." Sun Chengyun always tells Yu Zhu everything he knows, and he is not afraid of Yu Zhu.
Zhu didn't like to hear it.
"Why can't fourth child do it?" Yuzhu looked at Sun Chengyun and asked him deliberately.
"He is mean and ungrateful, and is extremely vengeful. Moreover, as a prince, he must have ulterior motives when treating others with courtesy. Even though he is extremely affectionate to his godfather now, in the future, he may fall out of favor faster than turning the pages of a book.
"Sun Chengyun made a conclusion for Lao Si without hesitation.
As we all know, Yuzhu and Sun Chengyun are grasshoppers on the same line.
Sun Chengyun is unlucky. As long as Yuzhu does not fall, there is a way to save him from the pit of fire.
If Yuzhu falls and Sun Chengyun loses his big backer, there will definitely be no good fruits to be gained.
Yuzhu took a deep look at Sun Chengyun, well, despite the old Sun's mediocre appearance of loving money and lust, in fact, he saw the general trend of the world clearly and killed that fool Longkodo in an instant.
To be honest, supporting Lao Twenty is indeed the best choice.
Why?
Yuzhu's eldest son, Xiaoxuanyu, has been Lao Twenty's companion for a long time.
When Lao Twenty entered Lao Tong's house, it was like visiting a vegetable garden. He could come and go freely as he pleased.
Non-vegetation, ruthless Practice makes perfect?
"Old Sun, I thought you were partial to Lao Shiba." Yuzhu deliberately wanted to test Sun Chengyun's knowledge.
"Good brother, to tell you the truth, Lao Shiba is too shrewd, especially good at hiding his clumsiness. This kind of person will not care about you being his brother-in-law in the future." Sun Chengyun also slapped Lao Shiba without hesitation.
A conclusion.
It is no exaggeration to say that Sun Chengyun's vision is indeed unique, and he can grasp the key point after looking at the problem.
Lao Shiba's shrewdness and hidden clumsiness contain a kind of extremely terrifying magic power.
What Yuzhu wants to do cannot be told to heaven and earth, and it cannot be appealed to his parents, wife and children, and it is impossible to reveal it to Sun Chengyun in advance.
As the old saying goes, if the minister is not secretive, he will be corrupt.
Looking through history, as long as people cannot control their mouths and cannot keep secrets, not only will they not achieve great things, but they may even die.
Seeing that Yuzhu didn't say anything for a long time, Sun Chengyun obviously acquiesced based on his understanding of Yuzhu.
"I said, it is unlikely that the higher-ups will establish a twenty-year-old man, right?" Sun Chengyun deliberately raised his right hand and pointed upward.
Yuzhu avoided this sensitive topic, changed the topic, and asked Sun Chengyun: "What if the superiors insist on establishing Hongxi?"
Sun Chengyun couldn't help but be stunned. He had thought about this problem before, but he never dared to discuss it with Yuzhu.
Yes, if the old emperor left a legacy and blatantly appointed Hongxi, Sun Chengyun and Yuzhu, what should they do?
