Sun Chuanting couldn't wait, and after bidding farewell to Hong Chengchou, he began to inquire about Mao Wenlong's whereabouts in the palace. I tried my best to finally find the Heart Cultivation Hall under the guidance of Cheng Zuo.

As the name suggests, the Heart Cultivation Hall is a place for cultivating the mind, but when Sun Chuanting arrived, the situation he saw was not the same at all.

I saw that a huge round table was placed in the center of the main hall, and the middle was hollowed out, and a huge hot pot was placed on it. The soup boiled inside was bubbling, and as soon as Sun Chuanting entered the hall, he smelled a burst of fragrance, which made people's mouths water.

In addition to Mao Wenlong, there are also old generals such as Chen Qiyu and Chen Jisheng in the main hall. Obviously, a gathering of kings and ministers was taking place here at this moment.

Mao Wenlong himself couldn't get out of Weihaiwei immediately to do what he wanted to do, so in order not to delay his future arrangements, he had to summon these most trusted old generals to come to the gathering, and by the way, explain some things that they needed to do.

At this time, Mao Wenlong had obviously explained everything, and he kept beckoning these old subordinates to eat and drink. And Sun Chuanting's arrival was directly put aside, and Mao Wenlong didn't greet him at all.

Sun Chuanting stood aside in a daze, he really didn't know what Mao Wenlong was thinking, he wanted to speak but didn't know what to say. wanted to turn around and leave, but felt that it was inappropriate, and it was not easy to see Mao Wenlong, he didn't want to miss such an opportunity.

As Hong Chengchou said, he Sun Chuanting only had this last chance to find Mao Wenlong. If you miss this opportunity, it is very likely that it will be difficult to find Mao Wenlong, the emperor, in the future.

When Sun Chuanting hesitated, Mao Wenlong suddenly got up and walked in front of him, hugged his fists and said with a smile: "Lord Shoufu is here, and he is lazy." ”

There is no sincerity in these words, anyone can hear it, Mao Wenlong is perfunctory.

Sun Chuanting didn't dare to slack off, after all, no matter what he said, Mao Wenlong was also the emperor, and his first assistant was not enough to bear Mao Wenlong's gift. Hurriedly bowed in return, Sun Chuanting smiled bitterly: "Chief soldier, don't bother the officer." ”

Mao Wenlong raised his eyebrows and laughed: "Lord Shoufu said that he laughed, now the court has to rely on you to work hard." And those of us who can't be idle will also leave Jingshi in the near future. In the future, the emperor and the government will still need to rely on Lord Sun. ”

Sun Chuanting responded with a dry smile: "When it comes to the affairs of the court, the lower officials came to ask the general soldiers for help in this matter. I also hope that the general soldier can give guidance to the lower officers. ”

Mao Wenlong seemed to have long expected why Sun Chuanting came, and he deliberately avoided this topic. didn't respond to Sun Chuanting at all, pulled him directly, found a place for Sun Chuanting to sit down, and then began to beckon him to eat first.

Sun Chuanting was anxious to solve the problem, what to eat there. postponed Mao Wenlong's hospitality, and Sun Chuanting put the problem on the bright side again: "Please also ask the general soldiers to give guidance to the lower officials first, and the ministers in the court have begun to wrestle." Everyone thinks that their idea is really beneficial to the Ming Dynasty, and they don't give in to each other, and the court has already become a mess now, and if you don't want to solve it, I'm afraid that this first assistant will not be able to do it. ”

As soon as these words came out, the originally lively hall immediately quieted down. Mao Wenlong's old subordinates here looked at Mao Wenlong with bated breath one by one, looking forward to how he would solve such a problem?

They are all old foxes in the court, and none of them are fuel-efficient lamps, but they can't think of a way to solve the problems in the court. After all, they are all their own people, and it is not good to deny anyone, and it is really wise for Hong Chengchou to be the first assistant to be inappropriate. Something like this offended people was left to Sun Chuanting, and it is no wonder that people want to slander in their hearts.

Mao Wenlong quieted down, and paused for a moment before asking, "Master Sun just came from Mr., right?" ”

There is no need to hide such a thing at all, and it is only a matter of one sentence for Mao Wenlong to find out. Sun Chuanting nodded generously and admitted: "It was under the guidance of Brother Hong that the lower officials came to look for the chief soldier. ”

"The old fox is the old fox, such a tricky thing, and he actually ignores it."

Mao Wenlong slandered in his heart, and then said with a straight face: "Master Sun is talented, this matter in the court, this general soldier doesn't believe that you will have no way to solve it." Lord Sun is so distressed, just because he is afraid that he will offend others, don't you say? ”

Sun Chuanting's face changed slightly, he didn't expect Mao Wenlong to tell the truth so bluntly. And at this moment, he said in front of so many founding heroes, and he didn't know where to put Sun Chuanting's face.

When everyone was stunned, they heard Mao Wenlong laugh and said: "As an official, you shouldn't be afraid of offending people, whether it's a former friend or the emperor." There is only truth and no friendship in the court, how to deal with it, mixed with feelings, Lord Sun's first assistant is naturally difficult. ”

Some things are to put it bluntly, but in fact, it is just the same thing. In front of so many people, Mao Wenlong pointed out the truth of the matter, which made everyone fall into deep thought.

Especially Sun Chuanting, the embarrassed look on his face was gone. Instead, there was a sudden look, and after thinking about it, Sun Chuanting also found that he had not yet entered the role of Shoufu. He has always been using his previous identity to measure the problems he is encountering now.

There will be such a predicament in front of him, and it is all expected, the authorities are confused by bystanders, and perhaps only he is confused. And bystanders such as Hong Chengchou and Mao Wenlong have already seen through the essence of the matter, so they are not in a hurry at all.

After some deep thought, Sun Chuanting slowly stood up, and then hugged his fists and bowed deeply to Mao Wenlong: "Listening to your words is better than reading a book for ten years, it is a foolish official." Thank you for your advice! ”

Sun Chuanting did not stay for long, and after thanking Mao Wenlong, he directly said goodbye and left.

Looking at the departing Sun Chuanting, Mao Wenlong did not open his mouth to stay, and he slandered Hong Chengchou in his heart. Obviously, Hong Chengchou actually knew the root of the problem for a long time, but this old fox was cunning, and he didn't want to offend people, so he pushed Sun Chuanting to his side.

Although it is much better than him Hong Chengchou to wake up Sun Chuanting by himself, but being calculated like this, Mao Wenlong is still indignant in his heart. It just so happened that he had a headache about Mao Jingwen's marriage recently, and Mao Wenlong felt that he should not let Hong Chengchou be so leisurely, and leave him in the palace just in case of emergency.

Now it is time for Hong Chengchou to have a headache for Mao Jingwen's marriage, and Mao Wenlong decided that he should be a hands-off shopkeeper.
