Xiao Yu paused for a moment, then smiled and said: "I also have the same intention, please ask the auxiliary machine to wait a moment."
The two of them passed by each other, and Changsun Wuji entered a side hall. Gao Zhixing heard that he wanted to talk to Xiao Yu, so he did not notify other officials in the house to come to the ceremony, but left two maids to burn the wine.
He made tea, prepared snacks, and said: "I have to greet other guests, so I can't stay here for a long time. Please forgive me, Duke Zhao. Later, when the banquet is ready, I will come again to invite Duke Zhao to the table."
Changsun Wuji had a kind face, smiled and said: "You and I are dear relatives, why should we be so polite? You can go about your business and don't need to worry about me."
Gao Zhixing resigned and left.
Not long after, Xiao Yu pushed the door open and entered...
The sun had set, and the light in the side hall was dim. The maid of the Gao family lit the candle, then knelt down on the side of the coffee table, heated up hot water, and brewed tea.
The fragrance of tea is dense.
Changsun Wuji waved his hand and said warmly: "I have a chat with Song Guogong, please step aside."
The maid of the Gao family was rude and said: "Here!"
The two maids stood up together and left together.
There were only two people left sitting opposite each other in the hall.
Changsun Wuji personally held the pot and filled the tea cups in front of Xiao Yu and himself. Then he put down the kettle, picked up a piece of pastry and put it in his mouth. He chewed it for a while and swallowed it before taking a sip of tea.
Xiao Yu didn't drink the water, just turned the teacup in his hand and looked up at Changsun Wuji.
Changsun Wuji drank tea and ate cakes, but didn't say a word for a long time...
Xiao Yu narrowed his eyes, calmed down, took a sip of tea and remained silent.
There was a strange silence in the side hall...
After a long while, Changsun Wuji patted the pastry crumbs on his hand, and said with a little embarrassment: "I'm old, I can't bear to be hungry. I feel dizzy when I'm a little hungry. My appetite is also gone. I could swallow half a cake back then.
Roast lamb, now just a few pieces of pastry will make you feel bloated. As people get older, they are no longer useful. Some things cannot be eaten even if they are placed in the mouth, and they can only look at them with greed."
What he said... Xiao Yu didn't understand.
But he knew that with Changsun Wuji's character, since he was invited to talk here, he would definitely not say nonsense in the first half of the sentence. Since he didn't understand, he would say nothing to avoid falling into the other party's trap.
The name "Yin Man" is not for nothing. This seemingly harmless and cheerful old guy in front of me is actually sinister...
Changsun Wuji didn't seem to care about Xiao Yu's silence. After drinking another cup of tea, he stretched his waist and asked casually: "Now that autumn is coming, the climate will also cool down. Over there in Mobei
It is estimated that the cool wind is already blowing, and frost and snow will fall soon. Dalang, your mansion, is in the bitter cold of Mobei, so you still have to pay more attention to your health. We are all ministers. Even if we try our best to repay your kindness, we still have to pay attention to our health.
Don't be too miserable on yourself. Besides, although Xue Yantuo was destroyed by Fang Jun, he was still a centipede insect. It is inevitable that some remnants will survive, harboring resentments and waiting for opportunities to act. If Xiao Dalang is not careful, he will be killed by those
It would be a pity if the remnants take advantage of this opportunity."
Xiao Yu's hand that turned the teacup suddenly paused, and he looked up at Changsun Wuji. His face was solemn at first, and then he smiled and said calmly: "The so-called wealth is obtained in danger. The more you go through the dangers, the more you can possess it."
A bright future. As fathers, if we try our best to plan a future for our children and grandchildren, take care of them in the palm of our hands, and cannot withstand even the slightest bit of rain, snow, wind and frost, what else can we do? As you just said, Auxiliary Machine
, when people are old and can’t even eat something, how long can we protect them? Once we can’t protect them, they will be suddenly exposed to severe frost like flowers and plants in a greenhouse, with no way to protect themselves.
Ability, they can only end miserably. Instead of watching them suddenly encounter a thunderstorm and be shattered into pieces in the midst of smooth sailing, it is better to let them go through some hardships as early as possible, so that they can establish a family in the future and stand alone. Auxiliary machine, very special
I am relying on my old age and selling my old age. You are a great person in the world, but you cannot ask your descendants to be as outstanding as you. You should let go appropriately and let your descendants suffer some hardships. You should let them experience the hardships they will surely endure in advance and temper their temperament.
How could something so depressing and sad happen?"
His expression was frank, but the words he spoke were like knives that pierced into Changsun Wuji's heart.
Regardless of whether you are threatening me, or implying that it was with your support that the Xiao family obtained the position of Grand Protector of the Hanhai Protectorate, you must know that no matter how bad my family Dalang is, even if he is shattered to pieces, he can still succeed.
Serving the country with loyalty and loyalty to the death, but what about you? Sun Chong, the eldest son who was so proud of himself, actually committed such a serious crime as conspiracy to usurp the country, which brought shame to the entire family...
The smile on Changsun Wuji's face did not fade, but it seemed to be frozen, and his cheeks couldn't help but twitch a few times.
The most painful scar in his heart was violently opened in front of him. The maddening anger made him almost lose his composure. He wanted to slam the tea cup in his hand on Xiao Yu's face...
Taking a deep breath, Changsun Wuji slowly nodded and sighed: "What the Duke of Song Dynasty said is true. It's a pity that I didn't understand this truth before, which led to a lifelong mess!"
Lifting the teapot and pouring tea for Xiao Yu, he continued: "But you know, although the falcon is a king, it is still young. If you let it go through the wind and rain too early, it will inevitably destroy the seedlings and encourage it, and act too hastily. My family is always ahead of the curve, and I have learned from it."
It’s not far away, Duke Guo of Song should think more about it.”
Xiao Yu's face looked slightly bright, and his eyes shone brightly.
He could confirm that Changsun Wuji was threatening him in front of him...but this kind of threat could indeed make Xiao Yu think carefully when he was angry.
The place where the Guanlong nobles started is in the north of Yinshan Mountain. Today, all the Hu tribes in Mobei are inextricably linked to the Guanlong nobles. If the Guanlong nobles promise to benefit, the Hu tribes who are now in panic will be
The tribe is driven by them, but it is not difficult.
Coupled with the fact that the Guanlong nobles are all descendants of the Northern Army...it is hard to say that they can really make Xiao Rui hate Mobei.
The Xiao family and the Changsun family are very similar. They both seem to be prosperous and prosperous, but there are very few outstanding figures in the next generation. Now it is difficult to pass on this illustrious authority. The Changsun family has a Changsun Chong who is regarded as the next generation.
The leader of a generation of Guanlong aristocrats turned out to be a treacherous and treasonous person. Although he was still alive, his future was ruined. And the Xiao family had finally cultivated a Xiao Rui. If he was buried in the snowy land again...
Without a qualified heir, no matter how prosperous the Xiao family is now, it is doomed to be gloomy and lost in the future.
As for whether Changsun Wuji dared to harm Xiao Rui's life... there is no need to doubt it. After serving as officials in the same court for several years, who can't know the temperament of the other?
This old fox is nicknamed "The Sinister" because he never hesitates to stab someone in the back. He is extremely ruthless and there is nothing he dares not do.
For example, Fang Jun was almost killed when he was assassinated not long ago. Although the three law departments jointly investigated and still have no clue to this day, Xiao Yu knew that even if Changsun Wuji did not personally plan this matter, he definitely could not escape his involvement.
He dared to assassinate Fang Jun in Chang'an City. How could he be afraid of Xiao Rui and dare not take action?
…
Xiao Yu took a deep breath, put the teacup on the coffee table, sat upright, stared at Changsun Wuji with burning eyes, and said in a deep voice: "I and the auxiliary machine have been officials in the same court for several years. Although we cannot be said to be sincere, we are
There is also the friendship of Pao Ze. I don’t know what the meaning of Auxiliary Machine’s words is, and I don’t want to speculate. There are only two of you here, but it doesn’t hurt to speak frankly.”
He is scared...
Changsun Wuji laughed and said calmly: "What does Song Guogong mean by these words? I have no other intention, just to talk about how to raise heirs... But I do have something in my heart, and I won't be happy if I don't say it."
He looked at Xiao Yu, who had a solemn look on his face and was struggling to hold back his anger, and said slowly: "What we call aristocratic families seem to be flourishing, but in fact they are mostly useless side branches. It seems that you and I are in high positions and have great power.
, what they have planned all their lives is just to cultivate an outstanding heir. As long as there is one promising heir, the entire family can continue to prosper. On the contrary, even if there are countless heirs, what is the use? As long as Song Guogong nods, all Guan Long's
All our strength can be mobilized to help Xiao Dalang guard Mobei with all his strength and make great achievements."
Xiao Yu nodded slowly, he understood.
The Guanlong nobles have obviously realized that their situation is not good and their future is even uncertain, so they want to contact the Jiangnan nobles and form allies to jointly resist the coming stormy waves.
He even resorted to such despicable means of threats and intimidation...
