Chapter 112: Winter is Coming (Part II)

"Lord Wang!"

Gu Xuan and the others greeted each other at the door and greeted each other, but they saw Jinglong, who was wearing a strong suit and even wearing a knife, suddenly walked out of it, then raised his head and shouted outside, after seeing Ye Zhihuai, his face changed slightly, and he immediately took two steps, stepped forward and saluted: "Jinglong has seen Lord Ye!"

Ye Zhihuai turned his head and looked at Jinglong, his expression was like a spring breeze, and he also learned the unique habits of people in their army, and saluted with his fists: "Brother Jinglong, this is more than half a year, and the demeanor is better than before!"

Jinglong lowered his head and respectfully retreated behind Gu Xuan, and then said, "Lord Ye is polite." ”

Seeing this, Gu Xuan raised his eyebrows, obviously a little puzzled, but then quickly returned to his original enthusiastic appearance, stretched out his hand inside, and invited: "Lord Ye, let's go into the house and talk, it is really against the etiquette to let you, Lord Shangshu, stand at the door all the time, but it seems that Xuan is a little ignorant." ”

Ye Zhihuai hurriedly bowed back, and said with some flattery: "Too, the prince is too polite, please first!"

Including the Ma family brothers and Morobeti, the three subordinates, everyone went inside together, and Jinglong, who rushed to explore the road and then came back, brought everyone to the main hall of this mansion, Gu Xuan glanced to the side, Jinglong hurriedly bowed down and hugged his fists and said: "Lord Wang, your subordinates retire." ”

Gu Xuan waved his hand and didn't say much, at this time, he already had the demeanor of a superior, he wanted to talk about business with Ye Zhihuai at this time, so he naturally needed someone to stay outside the house to prevent outsiders from eavesdropping, so the three of them also followed Jinglong out.

Seeing that the three of them had already left, Ye Zhihuai looked to the side again, and asked in a somewhat hesitant tone, "This, Brother Lu?"

This means that Lu Yi is obviously going to avoid it.

Gu Xuan hurriedly said, "Mr. Lu can hear it." ”

When Ye Zhihuai heard this, his brows frowned slightly, obviously a little displeased, and then said: "Lord Wang, it's not that the lower officials don't trust this Mr. Lu, but there are some words, after the prince hears it, whether to tell others or not, the prince can naturally make another decision, but before that。。。。。。 ”

The words are not finished to avoid embarrassment, but the meaning is already expressed.

Gu Xuan was displeased with Ye Zhihuai's attitude, and was about to let Lu Yi rest assured to stay first, but Lu Yi took the initiative to say: "Lord Ye is right, Lord Ye, you are the master, there are some things, naturally you should know alone, as for whether you need the staff of the people below, it is up to you to decide." ”

After saying that, he bowed deeply, and then said: "The official retires." ”

Seeing Lu Yi turn around and leave, Gu Xuan wanted to speak and stopped, he wanted to open his mouth to keep him, but in the end, he gave up, and Lu Yi went out first, not that he really didn't trust him, but his current identity and status were different, many things, he couldn't help himself, he had to establish authority in front of outsiders, this is also what Lu Yi conveyed to him, if you only listen to one person, even if that person is really worth doing, it is easy to make others feel uncomfortable.

The two entered the house one after another, and when Ye Zhihuai closed the door, he turned around and praised with a smile: "This Brother Lu is really born rich and handsome, like an immortal, and I don't know where you got a strange person, Lord Wang." ”

This is obviously inquiring about Lu Yi's origin, but how could Gu Xuan reveal the truth to him, not to mention the entire human race, from the atrium to the south, there are not many people who know the existence of the Illuminati, so naturally you can't tell people at will, not to mention that he doesn't have full trust in Ye Zhihuai, so it's even more impossible to tell him.

"The world is so big, the hidden dragon and the crouching tiger, strange people and strange things, there are naturally a lot, there is nothing strange about this, Xuan has been away from home for a while, and he has eaten this

The first thing I learned after all this hardship is to never underestimate anyone, such as Lord Night, who seems to have a lot of secrets, right?"

Ye Zhihuai What level of old fox is that, where can he be frightened by him, he smiled without missing a flaw, looking at it made people feel trusting, opened his mouth, and was about to answer, but Gu Xuan said again: "As for the second thing that Xuan learned, that is, never casually listen to some secrets that others didn't intend to say." ”

Ye Zhihuai was a little surprised this time, but he still showed no leakage, spread his hands, and said in a very natural tone: "Ye Mou has no secrets, if you really want to say that there is, it is nothing more than a little careful thinking, the prince is like a big sun hanging in the sky, he is discerning, and his heart must be like a mirror, Ye Mou doesn't talk much, but today, the prince can really be said to have fought a big victory!"

Gu Xuan saw that he changed the topic, turned his back, slowly walked to the main seat and sat down, did not continue to ask, and Ye Zhihuai continued: "After this time, those wall grasses that are still swaying may have to be considered again, but tonight's celebration party still only invited a few Ye Mou After carefully examining his heart, he thought that he was definitely loyal to the prince. Guests are like clouds'. ”

Gu Xuan exclaimed: "You have bothered Lord Night, in fact, the performance of Lord Night tonight is really breathtaking, who would have thought that Lord Night, who is so silent on weekdays, would be easily defeated by you in a few words even if a waiter of the Ministry of Rites personally ended up?"

These are not deliberately squeezing his counterwords, but Gu Xuan sighed from the bottom of his heart, Ye Zhihuai, the official of the ministry, is indeed competent, although in terms of today's court affairs, he can be regarded as a sentence of "public and private use", but I have to say that people can memorize the resumes of so many people clearly, and find flaws and loopholes from them, this is a kind of ability.

Ability has nothing to do with good or evil, if this kind of ability is used well, it is naturally a blessing to the court, at least it proves that he is not the kind of person who can get by, and he is a day at a time.

Ye Zhihuai waved his hand, and said very naturally: " What Ye did, it's really not worth mentioning, today it's just someone to support him, Ye Mou's courage is just a little enough, some words, you might as well say it to the prince, Ye Mou helped the prince, this is His Majesty's instructions, and then look at what His Majesty said today, I am very optimistic and trust in the prince, even the head of the official that day, Lord Zhang, is saying good things for the prince, so far, it is no exaggeration to say that the overall situation has been decided, those who secretly want to move their minds are just chickens and dogs, which can be broken with a snap of their fingers, just in the hearts of the people, the prince still has to work hard。 ”

Ye Zhihuai is very confident, even if he doesn't rely on the help of the forces behind him this time, this cool officialdom can come and go freely with him, even if he has never managed a relationship before, and there is no perennial friendship, relying on each other as horns, watching and helping each other's officialdom friends, but this official, in fact, is the same as a businessman, where is there any honest person who easily follows the line because of each other's personal friendship, and does not move his nest until death, and the officials do their level, they are all beasts that smell the wind and move, once they smell the fishy smell, they will pounce on them, their words and deeds, every move, everything is just forThe word "profit" is just that.

There are no permanent enemies, only eternal interests, today they can be Jiangzhou party members, tomorrow they can be the backbone of the princelings, everything only depends on what they need, and what the other party needs, the only thing to pay attention to is to grasp the scale of the swing, don't fall into the notorious name of a wallgrass.

This crown prince who was hand-picked by His Majesty, and even took the initiative to build momentum for him and shape the foundation, is a gold-lettered signboard that cannot be broken, and Zhang Boren, who has the most influence in the court, does not even need to take the initiative to stand in line, as long as he remains neutral and relies on his own means, others must not be submissive.

Take today as an example, it is really not difficult for him to defeat a political opponent.

Gu Xuan was also emotional, he never thought that in the past, he looked at the officials who were so powerful and majestic, but now when he came to his face, he had to bow his head obediently, thinking of this, he suddenly asked: "Then Zuo Weidu, it seems that it is also your handwriting?"

Ye Zhihuai stepped forward at this time, secretly holding a human-shaped thing in his sleeve robe, and said with a smile: "It is said that people go to high places, water flows to low places, being an official is like sailing against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat, Lord Zuo is also a person who understands current affairs, he naturally knows what is the best choice for him at the moment, the more he rushes, as long as he survives, the more benefits he will get, isn't it, by the way, Lord Wang, the set of inner armor that Xia Guan gave you before, can you take it with you?"

The conversation suddenly turned to an irrelevant place inexplicably, Gu Xuan was slightly stunned, but he didn't understand what he meant, and thought that Ye Zhihuai was taking the initiative to invite credit, so he also replied sincerely: "Such a good thing to save life, of course Xuan has been wearing it on his body, Lord Ye, don't worry, your good, Xuan has it in mind, and there will naturally be a day of retribution in the future." ”

As soon as he spoke, but he didn't hear from Ye Zhihuai for a long time, Gu Xuan couldn't help but raise his head, and then Huo Ran stood up, this time it was not a lie, but he asked with real concern: "Lord Ye, what's wrong with you?"

But seeing that Ye Zhihuai, who was fine just now, it was just a blink of an eye at the moment, and his face suddenly became as white as paper, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and even the expression on his face was a little distorted, and he knew that he was in a very bad state when he looked at it.

"I, Xiaguan, Xiaguan, Xiaguan Xu ate a bad stomach in the morning, and if I want to accuse you of the prince, Xiaguan has to leave first. ”

He covered his stomach with one hand, his expression was very painful, and Gu Xuan was also surprised, but after thinking about it, it was right, because the court meeting was held very early, most of these officials who needed to go to the court had to get up when the rooster crowed, and when they arrived at the palace, it was not yet dawn, and it was not time to make a fire in the house, often because they didn't want to alarm their families, so they either used the dishes of the previous night to eat directly, or they just ate some small vendors' things outside the palace to fill their stomachs.

This is also a great spectacle in the capital, in the morning, what snacks at the entrance of the palace, including hot noodle soup stalls, in fact, it is specially prepared for these Zhu Zi ministers, even the palace guards will not drive away, maybe they are hungry, and when they wait for the next shift, they will also come a little, the things of the small vendors, maybe not clean, occasionally eat bad stomach, but it is normal.

"If you are in an emergency, there is also a place to go to the toilet in the house, do you want to 。。。。。。 ”

Ye Zhihuai maintained a slow retreat movement, and at the same time waved his hand again and again, and said a little eagerly: "Prince, oh, the prince is guilty, Ye Mou has just arrived, and he can't find a place, not to mention that this is not the first time, Ye Mou's house is always equipped with medicine, and it is not far to go back here, subordinates, the lower officials retire, retire。。。。。。 ”

Anyway, without waiting for Gu Xuan to answer, he actually opened the door and went out directly, Gu Xuan saw it, but he didn't care, this person has three urgency, once something happens, let alone other people, even he can't stand it, so he has to go to the night Zhihuai, and the city government with the night knows Huai, it is obviously not like pretending.

I have to brag about myself, not to mention the meticulous carving, but every self-proclaimed, the description of the action has its meaning, and you can analyze the details.
