Chapter 368: Being a Man

In the small bar, only Xu Jia and Filia were here, obviously this was a secret conversation, and Filia did not want a third person to know the contents.

The candidates for the chief of the eight ministries have been basically decided, and now the top echelons of the Golo Star Empire are competing for the remaining positions among the eight ministries, and the deputy ministers of each ministry are naturally the top priority.

If you want to say who is most annoyed by Lu Haiyi's sudden appearance, it is of course the patriarch of the Bai clan, this is a direct competitor after all.

It was hard for people to drive away the other competitors, and they came up with an unknown number of quid pro quo, but now Lu Haiyi is going to pick peaches, who can stand this?

Not only the clan elder himself, but the entire Bai clan was quite dissatisfied with this, because the Bai clan also paid a lot of resources for this matter, which was no longer a matter of one person.

Filia had the intention of pushing Lu Haiyi to the throne, because although the Bai Clan had no grudges with the Shadow Clan, the clan elder had a very poor relationship with the Shadow Clan.

This is the typical wrong thing for people, but this is the case in politics, you have to solve people first, and then you can solve things.

Listening to Xu Jiaman's indifferent words, Filia couldn't help but say helplessly: "Of course you don't dare to kill someone, but find a way to splash dirty water on Lu Hai and make him embarrassed, I'm afraid that they will do it." ”

Among the high-level members of the Marfa Empire, they are in an important stage of political system reform, and they are far from forming the default unspoken rules, and it is entirely possible to use some indiscriminate means.

For example, sending someone to knock Lu Haiyi unconscious, and arresting him to the hotel to take a bed photo of him and a prostitute, this method has been played many times for a long time.

It's just that things haven't developed to this point before, and once this is done, it will be equivalent to a complete reversal of the two sides, so there are not many cases where this kind of trick will really be used.

But now it's different, firstly, the situation has indeed reached the point of saber rattling, and secondly, Lu Haiyi's backing is Xu Jia, which is a little different from the local high-level.

The six clans have both competition and cooperation with each other, which limits their means of competition, and it is impossible to overdo it.

But Xu Jia didn't have much cooperation with them, and the only condition that restrained them became Xu Jia's own strength and face.

But face is such a thing, to put it bluntly, it is given by others, and when there is no conflict, of course, everyone is good, and once it really comes to the hard time, face is the most worthless thing.

Xu Jia put the wine glass next to him casually, and said casually: "There are only two candidates now, so as long as Lu Haiyi has an accident, it must be the hand of the Bai clan, this idea is fine, right?"

Filia blinked, as if she understood what Xu Jia meant: "Do you want to take the opportunity to make trouble...... Heavy hands, right?"

Xu Jia just smiled and didn't speak, laughing so much that Filia felt a little furious.

With Xu Jia's current reputation in the empire, Filia wouldn't be surprised if he did anything. Because Xu Jia gives people the usual impression that he is crazy and unscrupulous.

Unable to get Xu Jia's answer, Her Royal Highness Filia had no choice but to hold her forehead and say, "I will warn the Bai Clan, as for whether they will listen or not...... I'll do my best. ”

Her Royal Highness the eldest princess doesn't want to see things out of control, and the Shadow Clan is also a party that has made a big profit in the process of the establishment of the Eight Divisions, and she doesn't want any more chaos to affect the overall situation.

Xu Jia just smiled at this, got up and patted Filia on the shoulder, and then walked slowly towards the outside of the bar.

......

When Filia returned to the ShadowClan residence, she made a beeline for a small room where Markham had been waiting for her.

Among the huge shadow clan, there are many people who are qualified to be the masters of the house, but the two who are really in charge are the two of them, the eldest princess, Her Royal Highness Filia, and the old man Makamud.

If Filia ascended to the throne by virtue of her royal status and the traditions of the Magna over the years, then Makamd completely relied on her own prestige to convince her fellow clansmen.

Of course, an old fox like Makamud knows very well how measured he should be.

Over the years, he has given most of the power to Filia, and he has played more of a backing role, relying on his own wisdom to protect Filia.

Anyone who mentions Makamud can't find out if he is not here, because at this age, he really has no desire to fight for power and profit, but is bent on developing and growing the tribe.

This time, Filia met with Xu Jia alone, and when she talked about Lu Haiyi, Makamd knew about it, so she waited here early.

"How does it feel?" asked Markamund, looking at Filia in front of him, smiling.

Filia's expression was a little hesitant, she still didn't quite approve Xu Jia's idea, but said: "Xu Jia may have the idea of taking action personally, I think I should warn the Bai clan and let them not go too far." ”

"I'm not asking about that. Makamud shook his head with a smile, "I mean, what do you think of Xu Jia?"

"Xu Jia?" Filia couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

These days, she is indeed the person who has the most contact with Xu Jia among the Shadow Clan. Because the two of them are of the same status, they can communicate with each other on an equal footing, and the other people in the Shadow Clan who have this qualification ...... It's not too convenient.

Zong Wu is not very good at communicating, and if he goes to contact Xu Jia, he may be pitted with blood. And the Makamud relatives will come forward, which will seem too formal.

Therefore, Ni Shaohan can occasionally let Zong Wu communicate, and Xu Jia has always been in contact with Filia here.

Makamud asked her about Xu Jia's personality at this time, and it seemed quite normal to think about it, but ...... Why does this tone sound so awkward?

Filia is not a little girl who is ignorant of the world, her eyelids jumped slightly, but she still said: "Xu Jia gives me the feeling that this person is not as violent as rumored...... Maybe it's because we're partners?"

Because of some of Xu Jia's past deeds, his evaluation among the top echelons of the empire was not good, and many people thought that he was a capricious and tyrannical nouveau riche who was difficult to cooperate with.

The Shadow Clan also had Ni Shaohan as a link to connect them, so they successfully talked to Xu Jia.

"Enemies and friends are biased in their evaluation of people, so you need to see for yourself. Makamund's smile remained unchanged, but he said.

Filia couldn't help scratching her head a little, she knew that when the old man got older, he always liked to say such vague words, and he wouldn't say anything more when you asked him, so you only let you experience it yourself.

For the old man's hobby, Filia also knew how to deal with it, so she simply changed the topic and said: "On the Bai side, I asked Han Wentong to warn them, and it may be counterproductive if I go in person." ”
