"What? Yu Gong passed away? ”

"My uncle is dead? So possible! You must lie to me, you must lie to me...... My uncle is going to die like this? ……”

In the study, hearing Jia Yidao's words, Hong Wenhao and Ye Mingshen couldn't help but exclaim at the same time.

However, from the words, it can be seen that Hong Wenhao and Ye Mingshen are obviously different from what they are surprised and concerned about.

seemed to feel Jia Yidao's eyes with a little coldness, and then looked at Hong Wenhao's surprised look beside him, Ye Mingshen was shocked, and the rest of the nonsense also stopped abruptly.

He knew that what he had just said was a bit out of order.

The reason why Ye Mingshen dared to follow Jia Nidao to Lin'an, in addition to Jia Nidao's request that he couldn't resist, he couldn't stay in Xiangyang City, which was also one of the very important reasons.

And all his reliance is because there is more than Tianxi in Lin'an City.

As long as Yu Tianxi is there, for the sake of his mother's face, it is impossible for Yu Tianxi to ignore him. Therefore, no matter how much dissatisfaction Jia Rudao has with him, and no matter how much dissatisfaction Meng Hui has with him, he will not really treat him well.

Not to mention, Yu Tianxi is now the prime minister of Zuo, and he is no longer the doorman master of the Shifu at the beginning.

Of course, it's not that Yu Tianxi couldn't take care of him at that time, but he felt that the water in Lin'an City was too deep, and he didn't know when he provoked someone who even Yu Tianxi couldn't provoke, so it was really better to stay away from Lin'an City and go to the place to be at ease.

After all, in the local area, Yu Tianxi's signboard is obviously much better than that of the capital.

Yu Tianxi is the prime minister of Zuo, and his identity as a nephew is naturally rising. If it weren't for the fact that the temperature didn't come too quickly, he would have rushed to Lin'an City with his mother's family.

Now he has not yet arrived in Lin'an City, but unexpectedly, the biggest reliance and the backer for future development is gone. How could this not make Ye Mingshen frightened and lost? Without Yu Tianxi's backer, will Jia Yidao still give him face?

What is Jia Rudao's identity now? He dared to directly question what Jia Nidao said, not to mention, in addition to Yu Tianxi's identity as his uncle, Yu Tianxi was also the prime minister of the Great Song Dynasty, Ye Mingshen's words just now, but there was really not much respect.

Seeing Ye Mingshen shut up, Jia Rudao withdrew his eyes and sighed slightly in his heart.

He could probably guess what Ye Mingshen was thinking, so he really didn't want to see him in general.

"The news is from a reliable source, and the news of Yu Gong's death should be true, and it will be spread all over the country in a few days." Speaking of this, Jia Rudao stepped forward and patted Hong Wenhao's shoulder and said: "The Mongols don't stop, now that my Great Song Dynasty has lost the minister of the Dingding, on this eventful time, today's banquet is according to the official's view, forget it, Lord Hong should have made preparations early." ”

"Do as you say." Hong Wenhao was also a little upset at the moment, and hurriedly bowed down to answer.

Hong Wenhao has passed the age of not being confused, and has been in office as the prefect of Ezhou for ten years. For ten years, his position as the prefect of Ezhou has always been as stable as Mount Tai.

He had no backers in the court, he was born poor, and he climbed step by step to the position of the prefect from the fourth rank by relying on his political achievements. At his age, he should have been ready to retire at any time, and it must be a little unwilling to see that the officials who were still under him before were not also sitting in the prefect and even becoming the head of the feudal officials, and even returned directly to Lin'an City to enter the power center of the Great Song Dynasty.

Hong Wenhao doesn't like to be welcomed, which is his advantage and also his disadvantage. has no backer, no business of his own backer, just relying on word-of-mouth and political achievements, if nothing else, his career will end here.

Of course, it's not that Hong Wenhao doesn't want to make friends with the powerful people in the court. It's just that he realized it a little late. Ten years ago, he disdained to do this, thinking that he could get out of the world on his own, and ten years later, when he sat in the position of the prefect of Ezhou for year after year, and finally understood it, his age had become an obstacle for him.

An old stubborn who will die old in a few years, and a young man who is still young and has a lot of room for growth, which one is worth investing in? The results speak for themselves. After all, the Great Song Dynasty said that it was not big, and it was not small, but the cake was so big, so many people divided it, and gave it to Hong Wenhao, and others didn't have it. Why not give it to young people who are more worthy of investment?

Originally, Hong Wenhao did lose his mind, but the arrival of Jia Yidao and Yu Tianxi's sudden rise to the position of the left prime minister of the Great Song Dynasty made Hong Wenhao see a little hope again.

Jia Rudao is a young man, and his high power is not light, and he also has a deep friendship with Yu Tianxi, Shi Songzhi and others. The most important thing is that Jia Yidao is too young and has risen too fast, and there must not be many available people under him. After all, young people don't have enough experience and can't do things well; The old guys, whose status is not low, and who think very highly of themselves, with the current identity of Jia Yidao, it is difficult for them to work.

On the contrary, what Hong Wenhao needs is such an opportunity. Therefore, when Jia Rudao passed through Ezhou, Hong Wenhao almost went bankrupt and prepared a generous gift for Jia Rudao, but Jia Rudao did not stay in Ezhou for two days, and hurriedly got on the boat and rushed to Xiangyang after receiving his things.

Hong Wenhao scolded in his heart, but he was helpless, he just thought that this time it was a complete meat bun beating the dog. In his opinion, it is difficult for Jia Rudao to go to Xiangyang City, so can he remember to find a future for him?

Things are always so wonderful, Jia Rudao not only came back from Xiangyang City alive, but also returned victorious. When Hong Wenhao heard the news, he had already quit drinking, but it was rare for him to drink alone in the middle of the night and get drunk!

Jia Nidao arrived in Xiangyang City, and in the past two days, Hong Wenhao and Jia Nidao have had a lot of contact, and finally began to understand this young high-ranking official, and the meaning revealed in Jia Rudao's words also made him look forward to the future a little more.

I thought it was a smooth thing, but unexpectedly, Yu Tianxi had just sat on Prime Minister Zuo for less than two months, and he hadn't even moved into Prime Minister Zuo's mansion, so he left to go west, and he was also killed?

This uncle is young, but after all, he still doesn't have much say in the court.

Jia Yidao looked at Hong Wenhao, who was suffering from gains and losses, and naturally felt like a mirror in his heart.

In the past two days, Hong Wenhao has been testing him, why is he not investigating Hong Wenhao? In general, Hong Wenhao is very satisfied with his governance skills, work ability, and temperament.

Such a depressed old man is the person he has been looking for but can't find. However, this old man's heart is not dead, and he still has the desire to improve, and he has come to the door, so Jia Rudao is so likely to make him chill?

"Hehe, Lord Hong, there are some things that can be seen and seen, but you don't have to worry too much about gains and losses." Speaking of this, Jia Rudao saw that Hong Wenhao was still confused, and had to say again: "This official is still waiting for Lord Hong to come to Lin'an, so that he can make up for today's banquet, do you say it is not Lord Hong?" ”

"Ah......" Hong Wenhao was stunned for a moment when he heard Jia Nidao's words, and then he finally came back to his senses, looking at Jia Nidao with inexplicable eyes, his heart was suddenly settled, and he said excitedly: "Yes, yes, yes!" Adults are right, right! The little old man made the adults laugh and laugh! ”
