Chapter 144: On the Plans and Policies of Ordinary Family Members to Seize the Position of Head of the Family
Whether it was Yue Liang or Yue Bing, or Yue Piao's eyeliner, Tang Xiao did not have the slightest wave in his heart about their death.
In fact, from another point of view, these guys are all their own enemies.
Even Yue Piao, who was now cooperating with him, was an enemy with a different position, so he never really trusted Yue Piao, and he came to Kyoto only to try to gain his own benefits by helping Yue Piao ascend to power.
Now, he has helped Yue Piao steadily win the cabinet quota, and the first step is completed.
In the period that followed, he attended a number of banquets.
The young nobles in the Song capital already knew him, and even coveted his silicone, so they naturally invited him to various banquets.
At banquets, his status as a missionary was widely accepted.
And he was also very professional in taking advantage of the opportunity to blindly spread some teachings, attracting the applause of the young nobles.
Of course, most of the praise of these nobles for him was superficial, mainly to please him, and then applaud him for love.
Even, Qiu Jiner is also in the ranks of this applause.
Qiu Jin'er invited Tang Xiao to Qiu's house to talk to her many times, Tang Xiao always wanted to take revenge on Qiu Jin'er, but he never dared to make a move, on the contrary, every time he went to Qiu's house, he would be molested by Qiu Jin'er, if it weren't for his current persona as a polite nun, I'm afraid he would have broken his vows.
As for the others, because of the different genders, Tang Xiao was invited to discuss hot air balloons.
Tang Xiao wanted to enter the circle of nobles, so naturally he couldn't shirk it, but he just chatted with the other party, but he didn't explain the principle and manufacturing method of the hot air balloon.
And in these days, the news of Yue Piao's official entry into the cabinet also came out.
Subsequently, Yue Piao also invited Tang Xiao back to Yue's Mansion as a guest.
At this time, Tang Xiao had already become a fragrant bait in the circle of young nobles, and the people of the four major families of Gui, Qiu, Ding, and Yue had invited Tang Xiao to their mansion as a guest, so when Yue Piao invited Tang Xiao again, it would not arouse anyone's suspicion.
And when he invited Tang Xiao home as a guest, he told everyone that he, like other nobles, had become friends with Tang Xiao, and it was natural for Tang Xiao to help him when the time came.
In Yue's Mansion, the two came to a water pavilion, retreated left and right, and left the two to talk secretly.
"Now that the first step has been done, do you have any plans for the future?" asked Tang Xiao.
Yue Piao said: "Sir should have a high opinion, right? ”
Tang Xiao smiled slightly and said, "Indeed, I have designed everything from the time you entered the cabinet to how you ascended to the position of the head of the family." ”
Yue Piao was pleasantly surprised.
Tang Xiao said again: "To ascend to the position of the head of a big family like the Yue family, you need to have important performances both externally and internally.
"Externally, you need to have the unanimous approval of the entire officialdom, which means that you need to have outstanding political achievements and have party henchmen to speak for you in the court.
"Internally, you need to get the approval of the current head of the Yue family. How can we get his approval?"
Yue Piao hurriedly replied: "Knock all the guys who can compete with me to the ground?"
"This is just one of the points, but doing this step is not enough to make the Yue family identify with your master, in addition, you also need to make the Yue family master feel that you can protect the entire Yue family, and even let the entire Yue family flourish and go to the next level. ”
Yue Piao was embarrassed and said, "But I don't have much decent family property, how can I make the old family master think that I can make the entire Yue family flourish?"
"No, you're going in the wrong direction. Tang Xiao grabbed a fruit placed on the table, threw it into his mouth, and said while chewing, "This vigorous development is to make the Yue family master feel that you can do it, and you don't need to really make achievements, otherwise there will be not enough time at all." Let me ask you, who is the main enemy of your Yue family?"
"The other three families. I told you this back when I was in the West. ”
"That's right. Tang Xiao nodded, "Then what the head of the Yue family is most worried about after he dies?"
Yue Piao was a little in a trance: "I am worried that the Yue family's power will be swallowed up by the other three major families!"
"That's right, so if you want the head of the Yue family to feel that you can protect the entire Yue family and take the Yue family further, you have to show that you can fight against the other three families. However, this is not the time to discuss this point, and what we need to discuss now should be the external issue. ”
"Make an outstanding political achievement? and recruit party henchmen?"
Tang Xiao nodded again: "Hmm." As long as you do this, even if you don't get the position of the head of the family in the end, you will not be easily killed by the new head of the family, and you will even have the opportunity to fight back. ”
Yue Piao was already moved, and hurriedly asked, "Then what should I do?"
"Don't worry! How to operate the specific details, you also need to look at the situation of the Yue family master first, to see how long he can support it, if the time is long, you can act cautiously, if the time is urgent, not only external problems, but even some internal steps, you have to take risks. ”
"This ...... Now the situation of the old master is really uncertain, no one can say for sure when he will die, at least a few days, at most a few months, and maybe even tomorrow there will be bad news. ”
"Is it convenient to take me to visit the head of the Yue family? I want to confirm his physical condition in person. ”
Yue Piaoyi was excited: "Will you see a doctor?"
"It's going to be a loss. It's better to look at it than not to see it. ”
"Okay! I'll take you to visit the old master right now!"
So the two of them got up and walked towards the quiet room where the head of the Yue family was staying.
Yue Piao entered first to meet the head of the Yue family and introduce Tang Xiao to the head of the Yue family.
Although the head of the Yue family has been lying on the sickbed for a long time, he still knows everything that happens in the Song Kingdom every day.
He had naturally heard of Tang Xiao, a figure who had recently set off a boom in the Song Capital, and now any monk was eager to see this strange woman who could send people to heaven, even if the head of the Yue family was dying, if he could go to heaven once before he died, it would be a wish of his.
Therefore, he was naturally willing to meet Tang Xiao.
Tang Xiao went in to visit the head of the Yue family and took the opportunity to observe the situation of the head of the Yue family.
He said that he knew a little bit about medicine, so he asked about the condition of the head of the Yue family.
The head of the Yue family did not hide it, and he answered all questions.
Of course, some questions are answered in a way that is evasive, after all, his physical condition is also a kind of confidentiality, and he will definitely not let an outsider know too deeply.
But just relying on these one-sided information, Tang Xiao has already found out through the Zhihai computer that the head of the Yue family is poisoned by heavy metals!
It was the first time he had encountered heavy metal poisoning in this Xiuzhen world.
He never imagined that a powerful Jindan monk would be poisoned by heavy metals.
However, monks are also human beings, and it is reasonable that people can be poisoned by heavy metals.
