"I heard that Qiu Yifan, your Imperial College student, is quite capable and steady in his work. I think he is a suitable candidate. What do you think of Gu Aiqing?"
The emperor smiled faintly, showing that the dark circles under his eyes were dark.
Gu Chengyu cursed in his heart, the emperor may have been tossing and turning at night these past few days and had difficulty falling asleep, right?
I guess I had been planning in my mind for several days and thought over and over again on the candidate before I made up my mind.
In order to guard against the prince, the emperor put all his energy into it.
"Your Majesty is wise, this man is very good! I have worked with him before, and he is steady and agile. He is a rare talent."
Gu Chengyu grinned. He was worried that he would not have a chance to deal with Qiu Yifan! Isn't this? The opportunity has come.
As long as the two of them are still working together, as a superior, if he wants to do something, what is the difficulty?
Even when it comes to things like wearing small shoes, he can do it from time to time, so this choice is perfect.
The emperor looked at Gu Chengyu in surprise, "I didn't expect you to have such high regard for this person. It seems that this person has something extraordinary."
The emperor thought for a while and found that this person was an official from the boss's lineage. Gu Chengyu had not had much contact with the boss before, so it should be impossible for him to seek refuge with him.
The emperor concealed the suspicion in his heart. He did not doubt anyone who was suspicious of him, and he did not doubt his employing people.
If he is so suspicious of officials in the DPRK and China, wouldn't it mean that no one can help him?
"The Emperor is so wise. Since he is your favorite candidate, he must not be an ordinary person."
Gu Chengyu said this very well. Not only did he flatter the emperor, he also indirectly praised himself.
Even the emperor was amused by him, "Are you praising me? Or are you praising yourself?"
After laughing, he immediately said seriously: "However, I actually have another purpose in making you the Prime Minister of Zhan Shifu."
"Wei ministers are at your mercy!"
Gu Chengyu knew the point was coming. As long as the emperor made a request, he could put forward the terms of exchange.
In any case, the emperor has been able to patiently explain to him until now, and he will be of great use after all.
Otherwise, why didn't the emperor find someone else? Aren't you more at ease with him?
In this case, if he didn't seek benefit for himself, he would be sorry to wait until now with an empty stomach.
"The prince has a weak temperament and is indecisive in his work habits. I am deeply worried about this. It is a good time to establish Zhan Shifu this time to select capable ministers with both ability and political integrity to assist him and change his temper."
The emperor sighed, fully expressing his care and love for the prince.
"The Emperor's deep love for licking calves and his love for his son moved me deeply. His Highness will definitely be able to understand your painstaking efforts for His Highness."
Although Gu Chengyu didn't believe the emperor's lies, he still had to give the emperor some face, right?
After all, the emperor found such a high-sounding reason to spy on the prince, which shows that he still needs some interviews.
Although Gu Chengyu's words gave him goosebumps, the emperor was very satisfied. The wrinkles on the old face showed that he was in a very good mood at the moment.
"It's just that the prince has a soft ear and is easily deceived by others. I am afraid that the prince will be instigated by others and will not be able to distinguish right from wrong, which will lead to making mistakes. Since you are prudent in doing things, I can rest assured to let you assist the prince. However, after all, you are young and experienced.
There are few things to do. The affairs of the court and palaces are complicated, so some matters need to be discussed with me and let me serve as the prince's adviser." The emperor said with a pleasant expression.
Gu Chengyu heard the profound meaning in the emperor's words and quickly expressed his stance.
"Your Majesty! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is prudent in his work, and the ministers who are humble are not as good as him. What's more, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the crown prince of a country, and the ministers who are humble speak lightly, fearing that His Royal Highness will be dissatisfied by saying too much."
Gu Chengyu secretly scolded the emperor for wanting to be a female cousin and building an archway at the same time.
Although I have always shown myself to be knowledgeable and knowledgeable, this matter is no small matter.
This was a matter of snitching. If the prince found out, how could the prince let him go?
If the two of them become enemies over this, what will the emperor do if he kicks his ass in the future?
After the prince ascends the throne, he will definitely not be reused, so what if he is more capable?
However, he is not that stupid person. He has his own way to achieve a balance between the two phases, but the price paid is not small.
Even if he agrees to something that is not beneficial, he will be reluctant to do so. Naturally, we cannot expect him to do his best.
"So I asked you to tell me those things. As for the final advice, others will naturally do it, so you don't need to worry about it."
The emperor was a little dissatisfied. He knew that Gu Chengyu wanted to take Qiao again.
How could someone who always knew the elegant meaning of string music not understand the meaning behind his words? He knew very well why he was so pretentious.
Gu Chengyu almost laughed out loud. He cooperated with the bad guys and let him do it, but the good guys left it to others. How could such a good thing happen in this world?
Even if he agreed to the emperor, he couldn't let others take advantage of him.
Besides, how can the prince be such a fool? His ability to play with power is also at its peak, and you can compete with the emperor!
As long as he lets out a little hint, the prince will naturally understand the emperor's intention.
No! It's very possible that you don't even have to tell anyone, as long as you enter Zhan Shifu, people will be suspicious of you.
"Is your teacher in good health recently?"
The emperor didn't wait for Gu Chengyu's answer, but then he changed the topic and asked about Liang Zhirui.
Gu Chengyu was a little stunned, why did he suddenly mention the teacher again? Did the emperor plan to threaten him with the teacher's life?
It's not so despicable, right? Gu Chengyu raised his head and glanced at the emperor quickly, and saw that the emperor was looking at him with a smile.
He quickly lowered his head, feeling a little vigilant in his heart.
"Teacher, he was a little unwell some time ago, but he has gotten much better recently."
The teacher had just met the emperor a few days ago. Didn't he ask questions knowingly now? It seems that he has some plans for the teacher.
"People feel refreshed when happy events happen. The marriage of my granddaughter and my disciple has been settled, and your teacher's body and bones will naturally be healthy. After all, it is still a heart disease. Heart disease also needs heart medicine. When I met your teacher this time, I found that he
It seems a lot more decadent than before.”
The emperor picked up the tea bowl seemingly unintentionally, and glanced at Gu Chengyu's expression.
Gu Chengyu's heart tightened, it seemed that his premonition was going to come true.
The teacher's resignation was actually impulsive, but Liang Zhirui also knew that the time had come when he had to resign.
However, after resigning from office, the granddaughter's life was not as satisfactory. Liang Zhirui lost his official position, and the people in the Zhenguo Palace no longer took him seriously, and even looked down upon Yao Mengxian, his legitimate daughter.
After that, Liang Zhirui regretted more than once that he had resigned from office, causing his granddaughter to live her life looking at other people's eyes.
Could it be that the emperor wants the teacher to become an official again? Gu Chengyu felt excited in his heart.
