The Overseer's Palace.

Lin Ju looked at the full hall of guests, and asked Father Lin, who was sitting on the side, "What did the Overseer mean just now, how did he count Ming City in front of so many people?" Was this self-effacement, or did he mean to belong to someone else? ”

"Hehe, the Overseer did it on purpose, can't you tell? Old fox. Father Lin sneered.

"Why?"

"You're drinking too much ink. Cast into the place of death and then survive, fall into the place of death and then live. The Overseer told the city in front of everyone, hooked up the curiosity of people like you, and then Mingcheng showed his loyalty in public, and immediately established the image of a patriotic soldier. In this way, everyone knows that the young marshal has learned advanced scientific knowledge from abroad and returned with a sincere heart to serve the motherland, who will have any objection to him being an overseer in the future? The Overseer was looking for a good opportunity to show his son's loyalty. ”

"So why bother? Isn't it enough to directly explain the benefits of the city? ”

"That's Huang Po selling melons!" Father Lin glared at Lin Ju, hey, why didn't this son open his mind, "If the Overseer directly praises his son, all he gets is insincere sycophancy and applause with other intentions. What's the use? Now he first belittled Mingcheng on the surface, attracted everyone's attention, and Mingcheng said a few words of patriotism, so that the opposite is done, and the effect is not the same. ”

The corners of Lin Ju's mouth twitched: "Is every word of a politician so crooked?" ”

Father Lin was dissatisfied: "Where is the twist and turn, this is the strategy." The Overseers also have political enemies, don't you see that those people just wanted to put all the colored hats on Mingcheng? ”

Lin Ju was not stupid, and soon understood: "Well, so the overseer is very clever, let Brother Mingcheng make a patriotic declaration in public, and instantly change the direction of public opinion." In this way, whether it is the overseer or not, they can only support Brother Mingcheng, and Brother Mingcheng's throne as the young marshal can be regarded as sitting firmly. ”

Father Lin was relieved that his son finally understood, and then pointed to the reporter who had just spoken, and told him in a low voice: "Seeing that reporter, he must have received the benefits of the Overseer." ”

Lin Ju remembered the reporter's sentence just now, "What is patriotism, Mu Shaoshuai is a model", and shook his head silently, his father was right, the overseer was really an old fox.

After Gu Shenghua and the others left, Gu Huizhu, who was reading quietly in the other courtyard, received a call from her grandmother. It turned out that the grandfather suddenly fainted to the ground, and the grandmother was at a loss. But now that Gu Shenghua is not at home, Gu Huizhu does not dare to call the shots, after all, human life is at stake, and if something happens, she can't be responsible, so she has to decide to go to the Overseer's Mansion to deliver the letter.

Although Gu Huizhu was anxious, she also knew that she had to dress neatly to attend other people's banquets. When she answered her grandmother's call, she was wearing a regular uniform, how did she get into the Overseer's Mansion in a high-ranking family. She weighed that no matter how rushed she was, she would have to change her clothes before she could leave, otherwise she would be stopped at the gate of the Overseer's Palace, and how could she go in to find someone.

Gu Huizhu roughly went through all her clothes in her mind, and found that there were really no clothes to participate in the banquet, so she didn't care about thirty-seven twenty-one, ran to the eldest sister Gu Zhenzhu's room, and took a set of dresses that fit her eyes at a glance without asking.

After hurriedly changing her clothes, Gu Huizhu hurriedly set off.
