Don't look at Guo Dan in the past two years, running from place to place, fighting in the south and in the north, but he is different from the famous Lord Wei, Lord Wei has real power in his hands, but he has no power in his hands from beginning to end.

Under normal circumstances, he will not be involved in government affairs, there is really no way, Wanli will also send officials to go with him, even if it is all up to him, but the executive power is not in his hands, the reform of the nine towns of the border army, he just makes suggestions, but the specific matters are arranged at the right time.

As for Japan, of course, he suggested a war with Japan.

As for the matter of fiscal reform, it was Wanli who took the initiative to ask him for his suggestion.

But whether it is voluntary or passive, Guo Dan does not involve any power, he is only responsible for analyzing the pros and cons, and Wanli arranges people to do it.

It is precisely because of this special relationship that he has a very harmonious relationship with Wanli, and there is no need to hide too much from each other, because there is no direct conflict of interest between the two parties, which is why he has absolute authority in buying and selling, and he does not need to ask Wanli about everything, he can be in charge.

If Guo Dan is a household secretary, or even a minister.

That Wanli will definitely be wary of Guo Dan everywhere.

After all, the core interests of the emperor are still imperial power.

Guo Dan also has to look ahead and backward in trading.

It can be seen that there are pros and cons to everything.

Out of the palace, a carriage made Guo Dan's heart happy, he hurriedly walked over, without saying a word, jumped into the carriage, lifted the curtain, and saw a noble and elegant beauty sitting inside.

It's not who Aunt Xu is.

"This master is the master in the end, that stupid girl from the Kou family, who has been married to me for so many years, but she has never thought of going out to pick me up, and expressing her longing with actions."

Guo Dan got into the carriage and directly grabbed Aunt Xu's slender and weak waist? I didn't forget to sigh in my mouth.

Aunt Xu rolled her eyes slightly and said, "I came here to pick you up, is that just because the dental store is currently in the year-end settlement?" Is it a lot of people? Some things are inconvenient to say. ”

Guo Dan nodded and said, "Of course I know this?" But self-deception can make me feel happy, so of course I am willing to deceive myself? This is the humility of a son-in-law. ”

Aunt Xu smiled? But I don't know what to say.

It seems to be a hurtful topic to talk about.

Guo Dan saw her smiling, and couldn't help but be moved, and the god made the ghost bow his head? Kissed the dimple at the corner of her mouth.

The air seemed to stand still at this moment.

Aunt Xu, who is strong in martial arts, really didn't expect Guo Dan to suddenly attack her? So that he could easily succeed? She couldn't even believe it? Turning your head slowly? Looking at Guo Dan incredulously? "You...!"

But hell is it! Guo Dan hurriedly said: "I'm really sorry, I seem to be a little crazy to deceive myself, if I say that I am purely unintentional, I can't help it, do you believe me?" ”

Can this be believed? Aunt Xu's eyes suddenly widened? Hands up.

"Wait!"

Guo Dan shouted: "Madam? Am I a son-in-law? Even if you want to fight? That can also be in the name of family law, and all acts of force that leave the family law belong to domestic violence and hooliganism? It's illegal. ”

Having said that, he is also muttering in his heart, is domestic violence illegal now? Whether it counts or not, Xu Mengxi doesn't dare to enforce family law against me.

Aunt Xu glared at Guo Dan angrily, her cheeks were red, and her round mountains were big and large, as if she was about to break out of her clothes, but she didn't know whether she was angry or ashamed.

After half a loud time, she finally put down her hand, turned her face to the side, gritted her teeth and said, "It's in vain that I believe in you like this." ”

Guo Dan lowered his head and sighed: "But you seriously underestimated your charm. ”

Aunt Xu turned around and asked, "Is it my fault?" ”

"I didn't say that, it's just...!"

Guo Dan sighed and said, "Whenever I brag outside about your wife, you are ice clear and jade, and you respect me like a guest, outsiders are suspicious... All doubts...! ”

Aunt Xu asked, "What do you suspect?" ”

Guo Dan covered his face and said: "I suspect that I was castrated by His Majesty before I joined the Xu family, alas... This is also because His Majesty did have the intention of castrating me at the beginning. ”

Aunt Xu pursed her lips, and when she saw Guo Dan's gaze, she immediately glared at her, and then heard Guo Dan sigh: "It can be seen that Mrs. is charming, that is recognized, I, an ordinary man, can resist." ”

At this point, he suddenly shook his head and said, "No, I can't say that, I think I can resist for so long, and I am already at the level of a saint, then Megumi Yanagishita is a fart." ”

Aunt Xu, who calmed down, knew that she had no reason to blame Guo Dan, interrupted his praise and asked, "Have you talked to Mr. Xu?" ”

Guo Dan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, quickly corrected his attitude, and nodded: "Madame's suggestion is really useful, I am worth the trip." ”

Immediately, he informed Aunt Xu of Xu Wei's conjecture.

As they became husband and wife, Guo Dan didn't want to hide anything from her anymore, but he needed Aunt Xu to give him advice.

"Killing two birds with one stone, Your Majesty's methods are really powerful."

Aunt Xu frowned slightly, her face was sad, and she asked Guo Dan again, "Then how are you going to deal with it?" ”

Guo smiled lightly: "If Your Majesty intends to do so, it can be seen that Your Majesty does not want to deal with me, and I am willing to maintain this relationship." ”

Aunt Xu said: "Maybe things are more complicated than we thought, because now Your Majesty has begun to play your game of chess." ”

Guo Dan frowned and said, "What do you mean?" ”

Aunt Xu said: "Do you know how the cabinet plans to restore the examination law?" ”

Guo Dan shook his head.

Aunt Xu said: "I told you before that the examination law can strengthen the cabinet's control over the six ministries, but how to restore the examination law has not yet been determined, and now there is news in the DPRK that Shen Shixing and they may want to go further and strengthen the power of the six ministries. ”

Guo Dan was curious: "Isn't this what you deserve?" ”

Aunt Xu shook her head and said: "Originally, this should be, but this is extremely rare in my dynasty, let's just say that my father is in charge of the Taifu Temple, the Taifu Temple is responsible for providing horses for the army and is subordinate to the Ministry of War, but the Taifu Temple controls part of the finances.

But according to Shen Shixing's intentions, the Taifu Temple will be divided into the household department in order to achieve financial unity, but in this way, it is equivalent to weakening the financial power of the Taifu Temple, because my father's forces were originally in the military department, and my Xu family is also a family of Jiangmen, once it is divided into the household department, my father will naturally be subject to them. ”

Guo Dan was stunned when he heard this, and hurriedly asked, "Then I don't know how Lord Yuezhang plans to deal with it?" ”

Aunt Xu sighed faintly: "Actually, my father doesn't miss this position, he wanted to resign from the post of Taifu Temple Secretary before, but he was rejected by His Majesty, but this is different from dividing the Taifu Temple into the household department."

Even if my father resigns from the post of Taifu Temple, our Xu family's power can still continue, but if it is said that the Taifu Temple will be included in the military department, my Xu family's forces in the military department will inevitably oppose it, in case Your Majesty agrees, this will make my father in a dilemma. ”

The basic plate of the Xu family is in the military department, and he can resign from the post of Taifu Temple, but to say that the Taifu Temple will be assigned to the household department, this is unacceptable to Xu Mengxi, and the entire basic plate of the Xu family is impossible to accept.

No wonder she was in a hurry to come here to find me, it turned out that their Xu family was in trouble. Guo Dan frowned and said, "I think Your Majesty is very likely to agree." ”

Aunt Xu hurriedly asked, "How did you find out?" ”

Guo Dan informed Aunt Xu about the budget system again.

After hearing this, Aunt Xu couldn't help but nodded, and said: "Actually, I also guess that Your Majesty is very likely to agree, because in this way, the power of the cabinet will not be underestimated, and in the future, they will also be able to use administrative power to control your development, maybe this is what Your Majesty wants to see, so that the cabinet and you can check and balance each other." ”

Wanli must still pursue balance, but the current situation is that if the DPRK and China do not have a strong body, it will not be able to balance Guo Dan's Yinuo group.

And this is the way of the emperor.

I believe in your premise that I have a way to deal with you.

If I can't deal with you, then there can be no trust.

Because no one can be equal to the emperor.

Guo Dan groaned a little and said, "If Lord Yue's left and right are rare, let some of them come to the grain line." ”

"Huh?"

Aunt Xu looked at him suspiciously.

Guo Dan said: "The existence of Yinuo Grain Bank is responsible for helping the imperial court purchase armaments and materials, and Taifu Temple basically did this before, which can be regarded as a professional counterpart, and dividing the power of your Xu family into two can still ensure the influence of your Xu family in the court." ”

Aunt Xu pondered a little, thinking to herself, if this is the case, maybe our Xu family's power in the court will increase instead of decreasing. I couldn't help but laugh: "Thank you." ”

When Guo Dan heard this, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "I'll kiss you, I have to apologize desperately, and you want to ask me for help, but you have to beat around the bush, we are a superficial couple, but there is really no one!" ”

Aunt Xu's cheeks suddenly dizzled, and she laughed self-deprecatingly: "The country is easy to change, but the nature is difficult to change." ”

Because she has been very strong since she was a child, she rarely asks for help from others, she is used to going in a roundabout way to achieve her goal, and she will not speak directly, even she herself can't deny that sometimes this kind of detour is a kind of cleverness, but it is difficult for her to change the habit she has developed since childhood.

Guo Dan hurriedly said: "Madame, don't change it, if Madame even changes this only shortcoming, then I can't climb high, I can't help it, I can't help it." ”

Aunt Xu snorted softly: "Consultant Guo should not be presumptuous, now the Kou family's proposal has never been broken." ”

Guo Dan raised his hand and gently hugged Aunt Xu, and said with a smile: "In this way, we are also a match made in heaven." ”

"Who's a couple with you."

Aunt Xu glanced at Guo Dan, but her face showed a rare coquettishness, Guo Dan couldn't help but look stunned, so she lowered her head and kissed Aunt Xu's full and delicate red lips.
