Chapter 583: Visiting the Great Prince
Thinking of this, Yu Muchuan's mood completely relaxed, changed to a more comfortable posture on the chair, Shi Shiran crossed Erlang's legs, and drank tea leisurely. [No pop-up novel network]
"Micro ...... Grass people Situ Wuji see His Royal Highness the Great Prince!" Situ Wuji walked into the house under the leadership of his subordinates and saluted Yu Muchuan. He almost forgot that he was no longer a courtier, and blurted out the word "Weichen", but fortunately stopped the car in time and secretly wiped himself with sweat.
"Hehe, Lord Situ, it's really a rare guest!" Yu Muchuan nodded unhurriedly, and said in a long tone, secretly feeling funny in his heart.
"I should have come to visit His Royal Highness the Great Prince a long time ago, the dog at home is not in good health, in order to take care of him, I haven't been able to spare time, I took the liberty to come to the door today, and I ask Your Highness not to be surprised. Situ Wuji said with a smile.
Yu Muchuan snorted lightly, and said with a smile: "This palace is really quite unexpected, I didn't expect Lord Situ to have this Yaxing, and it is a great honor to come to my one-third of an acre of land as a guest." Come on, why don't you serve tea to Master Situ!"
"Thank you, Your Highness, for the reward!" Situ Wuji took the fragrant tea from his subordinates with trepidation, took a sip and put it on the table, and then shouted outside the house: "What are you doing standing outside in a daze? Why don't you hurry up and bring things in!
Yu Muchuan was stunned for a moment, looked up, and saw Situ Wuji give an order, and several subordinates from Situ Mansion outside the house walked in with the box, and sent it to Yu Muchuan respectfully.
"Oh, Lord Situ, what are you doing here?" Yu Muchuan put down the teacup, first glanced at the boxes in front of him, and saw that all the boxes were wrapped in gold velvet, and the texture of Nan wood looked very delicate and luxurious, and it was very valuable.
"It's just a small courtesy, not a respect, and please see if it suits your heart. Situ Wuji said with a smile on the side.
Yu Muchuan picked the corner of his mouth, casually picked a box and opened it, and found that it contained a red jade ginseng that was in full condition and had a long life. When I opened another box, there were plump and round Dongzhu inside. He casually opened a few boxes, which were full of some precious treasures, among which there were many heavenly and earthly treasures.
At this time, Yu Muchuan had already understood Situ Wuji's intentions, although he was proud in his heart, but he still did not show a trace on the surface, but said reproachfully: "Lord Situ, I have to say two words to you, you can come! Why do you have to spend so much money? My father once repeatedly ordered and forbade ministers to give gifts to each other and form parties for personal gain, have you forgotten?"
When Situ Wuji heard this, he secretly scolded Yu Muchuan for being serious, but he said respectfully: "Your Highness's words are wrong! The old man is now an unofficial and a light body, how can he say that he has formed a party for personal gain? Moreover, you have recently been appreciated and promoted by His Majesty, and you have been promoted to the head of the civil ministers, and you can finally show your ambitions, and the old man is happy for His Royal Highness, so he came to congratulate him with a little bow, and there is no other meaning!"
"Hmm...... Since you say so, then the main palace is disrespectful. This sycophant made Yu Muchuan very useful, so he no longer shirked, and directly ordered the people in the house to take the box.
After the boxes were all taken away, Yu Muchuan looked at Situ Wuji with deep meaning and said, "Lord Situ came to the mansion today, I'm afraid it's not just as simple as giving gifts and congratulations, right?"
Yu Muchuan was also too lazy to talk nonsense and play Tai Chi, so he simply opened the skylight and said bright words.
"Your Highness is wise, the old man came this time, and he really has something to discuss. Situ Wuji sighed slightly, and said helplessly: "Presumably His Royal Highness also knows that during this period of time, the Situ family was framed by villains, first the industry was hit, and then the official position was deprived, and my eldest grandson Situ Xiaofeng even lost his life, too much, it was all tears......
Situ Wuji pretended to choke twice, Yu Muchuan touched his nose, and said cooperatively: "Lord Situ mourns." ”
"The old man thanked His Royal Highness, the old man has the heart to serve the empire, but he can only look at each other at home every day, sigh for a long time, and choke his ......head for having no way to serve the country," Situ Wuji said impassionedly, and secretly glanced at Yu Muchuan by the way.
I saw that Yu Muchuan's face was full of impatience, and he yawned a long time, spread out on the chair like a puddle of mud, and almost fell asleep, obviously not interested in this topic.
Situ Wuji was helpless, so he had to directly pick out the meaning: "Now that the Situ family is in the middle of the road, I have this old bone left." Although his ability is limited, he should be able to solve your problems a little for Your Highness. I also hope that His Royal Highness the Great Prince can ignore the past suspicions and let the old man contribute his meager strength to your grand cause. ”
Yu Muchuan finally showed a little interest at this time, and asked: "I don't understand this, since Lord Situ is dedicated to the country, why don't you go to my father and emperor to make a generous statement, but instead come to the palace to put your heart in mind?"
"Your Highness, I won't tell you, there is a good saying, I would have lit the moon with my heart, but the bright moon shone on the ditch. Situ Wuji sighed abruptly: "There are some things that don't need to be said too clearly, Your Highness only needs to know that I really want to contribute to His Highness's hegemony, and there is no falsehood." ”
After listening to this, Yu Muchuan pondered for a long time, and kept not speaking, constantly calculating in his heart: although Situ Wuji has been demoted to a concubine by his father, and he has no use value, but he has stayed in the position of the head of Wenchen for so long, and he should still hold a lot of favor cards in his hand, if he can bring these people under his command, then his strength must also be greatly improved.
Yu Muchuan didn't believe Situ Wuji's so-called "heartfelt words", but he didn't mind taking advantage of this old thing's connections. Now that he has come to the door, it is better to agree for the time being, and when he squeezes out the last bit of Situ Wuji's remaining value, it will not be too late to kick him off again!
Situ Wuji was very respectful on the surface waiting for Yu Muchuan to think, and in his heart he was also pondering his thoughts repeatedly.
He knew that the value in his hands was the favors that had been accumulated for a long time, and these favors were enough for the Situ family to maintain the status quo and not be destroyed. But what he wants is not this, he wants to bring the Situ family back to the top and regain its glory!--No, it is a thousand times stronger than before, the glory of self-respect!
I thought about it all night last night, and now the fastest way to return my family to the "battlefield" is to cling to the eldest prince!
