Lin Haoran's words were very calm, but they were obviously soft and hard, and even more indignant.

Not to mention that he is not a cat or a dog on his side, even if ordinary people are deceived like this, then they have to give the other party an explanation. It's just that things have come to this point, and Guo Pu is still so tough, which is obviously a kind of disrespect to them.

Guo Pu is in control of the promotion of hundreds of officials, even Xu Jie, he has to respect him for three points, facing a junior like Lin Haoran, he immediately responded with a straight face: "Joke! Why do I have to explain it to you? ”

"You're not explaining it to me! You owe my father-in-law an explanation and an explanation to my fellow students! Lin Haoran met Guo Pu's angry gaze, looking for tat.

Guo Pu felt that the word "treachery" was extremely harsh, which made him inexplicably angry, and immediately snorted coldly: "All this is because you are too naïve, and you are to blame!" ”

When things got to this point, he didn't want to continue pretending, but this kid was so forced to do so, so he simply singled out the other party directly.

"So, you're going to break with us?" Lin Haoran's face was slightly gloomy, and he was asking for verification again.

Guo Pu met Lin Haoran's gaze, but said confidently: "What about the break?" There are infinite variables in this officialdom, and although you do have some potential, it may not be better than it is now in ten years! ”

After more than 20 years of ups and downs in officialdom, he clearly realized that if he wanted to climb to the position of first assistant, it was not enough to rely on qualifications and ability, but also to have extraordinary political wisdom.

Like Zhang Xuan in the past, he entered the cabinet from a second-class jinshi in just six years, and then became the first assistant of the Ming Dynasty. On the other hand, Li Mo, the former secretary of the Ministry of Officials with qualifications and ability, not only failed to become the new first assistant, but died in prison.

Now Lin Haoran has an age advantage, but if he wants to climb to the real core position, this is not enough.

What's more, he is now a secretary of the ministry, and he has received the grace of the saint.

As long as Wu Shan is successfully eliminated, Yuan Wei and Yan Ne are not threats at all, and after Xu Jie retreats, he will be the new Ming Shoufu, and there will be countless hands to abolish this kid.

It is precisely like this, Lin Haoran deliberately threatened him in front of his son, which was actually just a joke. This kid who seems to have a bright future, let alone entering the cabinet after ten years, whether he can continue to be in the officialdom is unknown.

"If we break up, then we will no longer be political allies, but political enemies!" Lin Haoran faced Guo Pu, who was high above, and said seriously.

At this moment, he finally knew Guo Pu's true intentions, and he could see the situation in the court more clearly.

Before coming to Guo's mansion, he also went to find Wu Shan and revealed the information that Guo Pu gave Zhou Youqing to Wu Shan. But even so, Wu Shan still prefers to trust Guo Pu.

In order to make his father-in-law die, and in order to give his fellow students an accurate message, he decided to come to Guo's mansion and directly followed Guo Pu for this showdown.

It's just that the truth is so cruel, Guo Pu has really been deceiving him. Even if the matter has been revealed, Guo Pu not only did not apologize to them, but was so justifiable.

Although he has long known that the feelings of officialdom are as thin as paper, he still has the urge to beat the other party in the face of Guo Pu.

Although the housekeeper saw the hostility in Lin Haoran's eyes, he also secretly swallowed and spit, looking at the only one left in this side hall, he and Guo Pu couldn't help but use his eyes to find a worthy self-defense weapon.

Guo Pu is a strong-willed person, although he knows that breaking with the other party will lead to grudges, but he still responds without hesitation: "If you think so, then that's the case!" ”

Lin Haoran saw a trace of contempt on Guo Pu's face, and his heart moved, and he immediately speculated: "Your real purpose can't just be to get rid of a bunch of irrelevant juniors, right?" At the beginning, what you really want to get rid of is my father-in-law! ”

After all these years of officialdom, he is no longer the officialdom novice of the past.

The reason why they also believed that Guo Pu would help them was because Guo Pu and Xu Jie had a potential conflict of interest. The most important thing is that Guo Putangtang, a secretary of the ministry, has no reason to get rid of Ning Jiang and others.

At this point, if Guo Pu's target is his father-in-law, then everything makes sense.

Although Yuan Wei is the second assistant, he is a Jinshi in Jiajing's seventeenth year, not only has no foundation of his own, but also has too frivolous temperament, and he does not pose much threat to Guo Pu at all.

But his father-in-law has a very high reputation in the officialdom, and he has the support of a large group of protégés who have gradually grown up, as well as his profound qualifications and abilities, which is the biggest threat to Guo Pu's position as the first assistant in the future.

After all, the officials in this officialdom are chasing power, Yan Song got rid of Xia Yan, Li Mo and others for power, Xu Jie overthrew Yan Song for power, and Guo Pu naturally had a reason to get rid of his father-in-law for power.

Although I don't know what kind of means the other party will use, this is undoubtedly Guo Pu's true intention.

Guo Pu glanced at Lin Haoran quite unexpectedly, but thinking that stabbing the matter at this time would not affect the result, so he nodded and looked at Lin Haoran again and reproached: "All this is because of you!" If it weren't for how you took Brother Yue Jing to mess around, I wouldn't have ignored my old feelings, and Motosuke wouldn't have chosen to attack your father-in-law! ”

Xu Jie?

Lin Haoran immediately knew that this matter was jointly joined by Guo Pu and Xu Jie, and while secretly feeling that the situation was serious, he also shook his head with a wry smile in the face of Guo Pu's accusation.

This may seem to be a political dispute, but it is not an important factor. It's the excuse that these people want to get rid of their father-in-law, and find a high-sounding reason for their party to fight against each other.

Lin Haoran did not follow Guo Pu to argue about this matter, but looked at Guo Pu and said lightly: "There is one thing that you are actually wrong!" ”

"What's the matter!" Guo Pu asked with a slight curiosity.

Lin Haoran looked at Guo Pu's eyes and said seriously: "I never thought that ten years later, I would liquidate your Guo Mansion!" ”

Guo Pu stared at Lin Haoran, with a puzzled look on his face.

Lin Haoran got up from his seat, bowed his hand to Guo Pu, who was sitting in the master's seat, and turned around and left directly.

Officialdom has always been ruthless, and this is true.

Yan Song was supported by Xia Yan, but he sold Xia Yan after changing hands.

Xu Jie was supported by Yan Song, and once the two families got married, they moved their hukou to Jiangxi and formed a friendship with Yan Song, but they also quietly brought down Yan Song.

Guo Pu may not be able to do anything to Xiao Jinian, but if he can force his father-in-law to leave the court, this is not a gratifying thing. After all, this officialdom has always been so dark.
