At this point, Cui Ge didn't want to hide it anymore, and directly admitted: "Exactly." Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoHis Royal Highness King Chun has never lobbied me, but Cui has identified him at the moment. ”

"Oh? Why His Royal Highness King Chun? You must know that he angered His Majesty because of the matter of the palace before, and he may not be the best candidate. ”

"His Royal Highness King Chun doesn't say anything about Taowu, the important thing is that he is diligent in his administration, loves the people and regards the people as sons, isn't such a person the emperor's choice?"

"But compared with the eldest prince, his power and magic methods are not half a star, Lord Cui, you have been in the officialdom for many years, so you naturally know that you can not ascend to the throne with benevolence."

"Maybe Chen Lao is right, but other things can always be learned slowly, but benevolence and benevolence are not something that everyone can learn. Ye Houye, you should understand best when you follow the eldest prince. ”

These words were full of guns and sticks, which made Ye Boxian feel awkward, so he had to shake his head and smile: "Lord Cui, you misunderstood, Ben Hou is not the person of the eldest prince. Of course, it doesn't matter if you believe it or not, at least we are here today for the same purpose, all of which are to hope that Chen Lao will take the post of secretary of the household department. ”

Cui Ge was about to speak, when the family outside the door came to report again, saying that the young master Xiao Liran of the Xiao Mansion asked to see him.

Chen Zifeng was puzzled and muttered, "What's the matter today?" I'm busy enough to be idle. ”

Ye Boxian smiled meaningfully: "How else to say that your Feng Xianju is a treasure of feng shui!" Well, since this Xiao Gongzi is here, it's not appropriate for Master Cui and I to stay here, so it's better to ......"

"Master Hou wants to go, you don't have to pull Cui."

Cui Ge interrupted Ye Boxian's words mercilessly.

"Why should Lord Cui be in a hurry, Ben Hou means that since we don't show up, it's better to go inside and rest for a while."

"Listening to Master Hou, do you want to eavesdrop? It's really someone next to the eldest prince......"

Seeing that Cui Ge was blocked again, Ye Boxian couldn't cry or laugh: "Hurry up, my Master Cui, we are here, where can Xiao Gongzi speak?" ”

After saying that, regardless of whether Cui Ge wanted it or not, he pulled his sleeve and went into the inner room.

After a while, Xiao Liran walked in with a spring breeze on his face.

"Uncle Chen, I haven't seen you for a while, but your body is still healthy?"

"Okay! How do you have time to come and see me, old man? ”

"Uncle Chen, but it's strange that the little nephew hasn't come to see you for a while? It was the little nephew's negligence, and Uncle Chen should be blamed. ”

"You have a heart, it's stronger than that girl at the beginning."

"Huan'er? Ha ha..... Uncle Chen wants to blame her, she went to the mountain to pray for blessings, and came down the mountain to see you. ”

"Tell me, what are you looking for me today?"

"Uncle Chen, the little nephew is just asking you for a long time, I just want to come and see you, where will there be anything?"

Chen Zifeng smiled: "I thought you were also here for the matter of the Hubu Shangshu!" ”

Xiao Liran looked at Chen Zifeng with some surprise, and said: "Today, I heard that Your Majesty intends to give Uncle Chen the post of household secretary, I thought it was a rumor in the market that it was not true, but it turned out that there was really such a thing?" ”

Chen Zifeng shook his beard and said, "Yes, there is indeed such a thing. ”

"Then Uncle Chen plans to take over this position?"

Chen Zifeng didn't answer, but asked, "Nephew Xian thinks I shouldn't take it?" ”

"With all due respect, according to the laws of my Annan Kingdom, anyone who holds an important position in Beijing is not allowed to have private property, Uncle Chen, your rice shops are all over the world, how can you give it up easily?"

Seeing that Chen Zifeng didn't speak, Xiao Liran said again: "Uncle Chen, you have no children under your knees, if you take over the position of the head of the household department, how should you deal with the property under your name?" Besides, Uncle Chen is used to being comfortable, so why bother to keep those red tapes in the court? ”

Chen Zifeng couldn't help but nod when he heard this: "You kid really said to my heart!" Thinking about it, this old man must not do it. ”

"Uncle Chen really has great wisdom, and the little nephew is respectful."

The two chatted for a while, Xiao Liran's goal had been achieved, and seeing that Chen Zifeng was a little absent-minded, he got up and said goodbye.

After Xiao Liran left, Ye Boxian and Cui Ge walked out of the inner room.

Cui Ge's expression was puzzled, but Ye Boxian's face was clear.

"Master Hou, what do you think?" Chen Zifeng said.

Ye Boxian glanced at Cui Ge before he said to Chen Zifeng: "Obviously, he is blocking you and not wanting you to sit in that position, so Zhao Shouzheng, the inspector of the household department, will naturally take over the position of the secretary of the household department." ”

"It seems that the girl guessed correctly, Zhao Moqun is really his person."

Cui Ge was confused at this time, and subconsciously blurted out the doubts in his heart: "Zhao Moqun is his person?" What do you mean by that? He is just the son of a businessman, what does Zhao Moqun help him do? ”

Chen Zifeng seemed to find that he had missed his mouth, and looked at Ye Boxian on the side with some uneasiness.

Ye Boxian smiled and said, "Since Lord Cui has his heart set on His Royal Highness King Chun, it doesn't hurt if Elder Chen says it. ”

Chen Zifeng replied to Cui Ge's question at this time: "This Xiao Gongzi is not an ordinary businessman, his father is ...... Holy today. ”

"What?!"

Cui Ge exclaimed, his body was a little unstable: "Old Chen, do you mean Xiao Liran is..... Is it the prince of our Nan'an Kingdom? ”

"Exactly, his biological mother is Liu Yueniang."

Speaking of Liu Yueniang, Cui Ge had an impression: "Liu Yueniang is a Qinglou woman on the Huaiyang Flower Boat, although she is in love with His Majesty, but she can't enter the palace gate due to her identity, but, isn't she not the mother and son died more than ten years ago due to dystocia?" How could it be ......"

"Lord Cui has a good memory, it is that Liu Yueniang, but it is a fact that she died in childbirth, but the child in her womb was born, Your Majesty can't bear to see this child grow up in the palace and be criticized, so he was handed over to Xiao Wenbang, who is kind to the royal family."

Cui Ge didn't seem to have recovered from the shock, and after a long time, he looked at Chen Zifeng: "Then this Xiao Liran persuaded Chen Lao not to take over the household department this time, because Zhao Moqun had already supported him in the struggle for the throne, so he wanted to make sure that Zhao Moqun's cousin Zhao Shouzheng sat in that position?" “

"Lord Cui looked at Ye Zhiqiu, and the old man only said one or two sentences, and Lord Cui already understood the stakes, and the old man admired it."

"However, if Xiao Liran wants to compete for the crown, he must have the nod of the saint to succeed, otherwise even if Zhao Moqun helps him, it will be difficult for him to compete with the eldest prince."

Ye Boxian said: "Master Cui's analysis is good, since Xiao Liran has already made such a big move, presumably the emperor acquiesced." Our emperor is the best at the golden mean, and Lord Cui understands it in his heart. ”

Cui Ge nodded subconsciously, and suddenly found that it was Ye Boxian who was talking to him, and couldn't help but snort coldly: "Ye Hou Ye is starting to worry about the eldest prince?" ”
