Jiang Qingyun slowly placed his body in the back of the sofa, the leather sofa was very soft, Jiang Qingyun leaned down, and the whole person fell into the soft sofa. The couch wrapped him around. Leaning back on the sofa, there was almost no superfluous expression on Jiang Qingyun's handsome face. He looked at the small place in front of him with a flat gaze, and he couldn't take his eyes off it.

Only a few seconds passed, and Jiang Qingyun recurred the curvature of the corners of his mouth.

When he raised his eyelids again, Jiang Qingyun was still the youngest vice minister in the history of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the most promising rising star in the political circles.

He smiled slightly, "Fifth Master Quan, I am a person who never likes to look back on the past. The previous things are in the past. I don't like retrospectives, and I don't have time to do so. I think...... Did Minister Lu say something to you, so you said this? ”

Emperor Quan Yuhuang waved his hand lazily, and subconsciously reached out to touch the cigarette case in his pocket, but suddenly thought that he had promised An Ning to quit smoking, so he waved his hand, "Minister Jiang, you are too worried." Lu Yuechuan didn't say anything to me. Lu Yuechuan is not a person of many words, Minister Jiang, you know this very well. I think there must be some reason why you said that. ”

Jiang Qingyun smiled faintly, "Xinran, this girl, seems to be particularly concerned about my love life." She also seemed to blame Dr. Bai for her death. Let Dr. Bai help me carry this black cauldron, I really feel a little guilty. ”

Emperor Quan Yu let out an extremely cold 'oh', "Since I promised you at the beginning, then this black cauldron should be carried by Lao Bai or by the fifth master." Minister Chiang doesn't have to mind. But happily that girl, she is indeed an inquiring character. This matter, since the fifth master has accepted it, then Minister Jiang, you don't have to worry about it. Your sister wants to find out the truth from the fifth master, but it's impossible. But the fifth master can't guarantee that your clever sister won't know the truth from other places. ”

"Of course, this is not a matter of labor, Fifth Master, you don't have to worry about it. My own sister, I'll do it myself. ”

"That's good." Emperor Quan Yu didn't care about this matter at all, he said: "What I said just now doesn't mean anything. I'm just telling you that Hao Yihua is different from you. You can give up everything for your ambitions, for that pinnacle position. But Hao Yihua, he won't. The position at the top is of course important to Hao Yihua, he has great ambitions, but he will not leave his feelings behind for that position. This is the biggest difference between Hao Yihua and you. ”

"Oh?" Jiang Qingyun raised his eyebrows, very interested.

He had heard the name of Hao Yihua a long time ago, Hao Yihua, the leader of the Hao family's generation. Although externally, the Hao family is still in charge of Hao Yihua's father, but in fact, the Hao family has long been Hao Yihua's idea. This is not clear to others, but he is clear. Everyone is a veteran aristocrat in the capital, and the contacts between them are not very close, but they are also familiar with each other. Just like their Jiang family is still nominally his father as the patriarch, but in fact, the power of the Jiang family is already in his hands, and the Hao family is the same.

The person who is really in charge of the Hao family now is Hao Yihua.

Hao Yihua is a man, he is also more familiar with. Although he has not met Hao Yihua in any face, he has had any substantive contact. But Hao Yihua's name is like thunder.

Let Lu Yuechuan personally visit him and invite him to go out of the mountain and enter nine places, this one thing alone is enough to explain Hao Yihua's ability and ability. In addition, since Hao Yihua took over the Hao family, the development of the Hao family can be described as a rapid progress! The Hao family, who has been standing still for many years, and has even been left behind, has completely changed since Hao Yihua became the master. Hao Yihua's ability, Jiang Qingyun will never underestimate it.

Jiang Qingyun has been secretly paying attention to Hao Yihua's movements. But Hao Yihua lives in the depths of the house on weekdays, and the only opportunity to show up is to help Lu Yuechuan in the ninth place. Hao Yihua is also a very mysterious character, and Jiang Qingyun really doesn't know much about Hao Yihua's affairs.

But Hao Yihua's ability, Jiang Qingyun is clear.

Therefore, Emperor Quan Yu took the initiative to mention Hao Yihua, and Jiang Qingyun naturally showed great interest.

Jiang Qingyun had already judged Hao Yihua's ambitions, which were no less than him. But because Hao Yihua is too good at taoguang, he really doesn't know much about this potential opponent. I only know that Hao Yihua has the means, ability and ability, but Jiang Qingyun doesn't know anything about the specific situation.

Therefore, Jiang Qingyun also intended to ask Emperor Quan Yuhuang about Hao Yihua.

"Actually, I don't hide it from the fifth master, I said it, I will talk to Hao Yihua on the phone today."

This time it was Quan Yuhuang's turn to raise his eyebrows, and he asked, "Hao Yihua took the initiative to contact you?" ”

That's a strange thing.

"It's not that Hao Yihua took the initiative to contact me. Still happy that girl......" Jiang Qingyun said of his sister, his tone and demeanor softened a lot, and he said: "Hao Yihua seems to have real feelings for Xinran's girl." When Xinran was in the ninth place, Hao Yihua was also taking care of her many times. Xinran is a heartless girl, and she doesn't know how to call me when she hasn't been by my side for so long. It was Hao Yihua who reminded her, and she called me. Of course, I naturally knew that she happily told me that Hao Yihua was pursuing her, just to make some trouble for Hao Yihua. But I didn't expect Hao Yihua to tell me directly, he likes Xinran and wants to marry Xinran. I didn't expect that. ”

"That's right." Quan Yuhuang nodded, "It's Hao Yihua's character." If he really likes Xinran's girl, he won't hide it. He'll have a direct showdown with you. ”

"Don't say anything else, if Hao Yihua really likes Xinran, I have to investigate him."

"Well, you'll tell you privately. Whether you admit it or not, Hao Yihua, is your business. The fifth master is for the sake of the cooperation between the two of us, let me remind you. ”

"I'm listening."

"The biggest difference between Hao Yihua and you is that he will not give up his feelings. In his eyes, there is also that pinnacle position. But in addition to this pinnacle position, there are other things in Hao Yihua's eyes. Love and ambition, if you can't take care of it, Hao Yihua is willing to settle for the next best. ”

Hao Yihua is willing to settle for the next best thing?

Jiang Qingyun was silent for a long time before he spoke slowly, "Fifth Master Quan wants to tell me that as long as I marry my sister to Hao Yihua, he Hao Yihua will no longer compete with me for the pinnacle position." Are you asking me to sell my sister for my own ambitions? ”

"That's your own business. Your sister is your own, and your ambitions are your own. Whatever you want, whatever you want. The fifth master just reminds you that Hao Yihua is your strongest opponent, but he is not an opponent that you cannot bypass. For the rest, you weigh it yourself, and the fifth master has everything to say here. ”

Jiang Qingyun thought for a while, nodded and said, "I wrote down your reminder." Thank you, Fifth Master Quan. ”

"You're welcome." Emperor Quan Yuhuang waved his hand, "Jiang Qingyun, the two of us have been friends for some years, right?" ”

Jiang Qingyun nodded, "It's been some years. Although we have not cooperated as closely as we did this time, we still have a good time working together. So Fifth Master Quan, if you have something to say, you might as well say it directly. ”

"The fifth master is going to say it directly." Emperor Quan Yuhuang leaned over, propped his elbows on his knees, and stared at Jiang Qingyun's face with a pair of dark demon eyes, he said slowly and logically, "In my opinion, Hao Yihua is your opponent, the strongest opponent, but he is not your biggest opponent." Hao Yihua is the person who can be your partner. I'll tell you the truth, even if Hao Yihua marries Xinran's girl, he won't be your Jiang Qingyun's helper. He also has his ambitions, and he is not willing to be subservient. But he will be your strongest and most powerful partner. Jiang Qingyun, don't think of Hao Yihua as your enemy. Think of a way and he will be your ally. ”

Jiang Qingyun knew in his heart that Emperor Quan Yu could say this to him, it was really heart-wrenching. He nodded, taking Emperor Quan's words quite seriously.

"Of course I understand what you mean. But if my cooperation with Hao Yihua must be based on my selling of my sister, then I would rather lose a strong partner. For me, ambition and career are not as important as happy happiness. ”

Emperor Quan Yu smiled, "Jiang Qingyun, you are really interesting. ”

He laughed, mocking and sarcastic.

Jiang Qingyun saw it clearly, but he didn't mind, he just asked rhetorically, "Oh? What's interesting, how come I don't know I'm interesting. ”

"For the sake of your ambition and career, you can abandon your lover without hesitation-" After a pause, Quan Yuhuang automatically corrected, "That girl may not be your lover." But you used to love her, right? ”

In front of Jiang Qingyun's eyes, that bright and pure face appeared again, and he had to admit that even today, he still missed that face deeply. But nostalgia is nostalgia, and he has already let it go. Completely let go.

"Yes, I used to love her." Jiang Qingyun happily admitted, "I used to love her very, very much. But only that time did I love her. From the moment I returned to the capital, I didn't love her anymore. Or, for the sake of my ambition and career, I can't love her anymore. So, I don't love her anymore. ”

"For the sake of your ambition and career, you killed the woman you once loved. You are obviously such a ruthless and ruthless man, but you are gentle and considerate everywhere. The fifth master is really a little incomprehensible, are you ruthless or affectionate? ”

"Desperation is me, and affection is also me. But my affection will only be left to my sister Xinran. Except for glad, I'm heartless. ”

"In other words, your affection is only reserved for your family?"

"Let's just put it that way." Jiang Qingyun pursed his lips and smiled, he smiled very reservedly, "Xinran is the child I raised single-handedly." She's not so much my sister as my daughter. This may be a more appropriate description. There are only two things that I value most in my life, ambition and happiness. ”

Emperor Quan Yuhuang asked rhetorically, "First ambition, then gladly retired?" ”

"If the situation is exceptional, it can be joy in front and ambition in the back." Jiang Qingyun replied.

"Then I can tell you now that for Hao Yihua, Jiang Xinran will always be in front and his ambition in the back." Emperor Quan Yuhuang just talked about things and didn't mix any feelings, "Jiang Qingyun, you are a smart person." I've analyzed all kinds of awesomeness with you very thoroughly, so you naturally know what to do. Even if you don't want to marry your sister to Hao Yihua, you must have a way to avoid being an enemy of Hao Yihua. ”

Jiang Qingyun was puzzled, "Don't you want to see me and Hao Yihua as enemies?" ”
