Chapter Ninety-Four: Mastering the Present Situation
Hotaru Yue was analyzing the head, but fortunately, everyone else was taken away, and only the two of them were there, so Hotaru Yue dared to speak so boldly.
You know, in ancient times, it was the most taboo to talk about kings.
Xu Shuo nodded lightly and agreed, giving Yingyue more confidence to continue: "On the one hand, the prince has a familiar person, and he can control the government a little. On the other hand, Xie Jingyuan has good ability, he has accompanied the prince since he was a child, and his loyalty is absolutely indescribable, and the feelings of growing up together for more than ten years are there. And in order to make it easy for Xie Jingyuan to get experience, he will become the youngest cabinet chief. ”
"Although there are only five cabinet scholars, and the first assistant is no exception, as the emperor's think tank, it is equivalent to the highest level of advisers, and the emperor will refer to the opinions of the cabinet in many important decisions, which is much higher than those who are too many of the Taibao Taifu and Taishi. Although the crown prince Shaobao also has two grades, in terms of real power, it is not as heavy as the power of the first assistant of the cabinet. ”
"Although nominally speaking, Xie Jingyuan's obligation as the crown prince is to protect the prince, but those modern traffic and celebrities who are a little famous are eager to take seventeen or eighteen followers out on the street, and the future prince of a country, can there be no bodyguards and thugs?"
Obviously, this prince Shaobao is more about a companionship and enhancing feelings.
It stands to reason that the emperor can be regarded as trusting Xie Jingyuan, and it is clear that he wants Xie Jingyuan to assist the prince all the way until he becomes the emperor all the way. And as soon as the crown prince succeeds to the throne, Xie Jingyuan will inevitably ascend to heaven with the chicken dog.
Thinking like this, Hotaru only felt that everything was clear, and couldn't help but be complacent about her cleverness.
After saying her analysis, Hotaru looked at Xu Shuo triumphantly and said, "I'm learning things quickly, right?" The emperor's arrangement is to pave the way for the crown prince in the future. ”
Xu Shuo couldn't help but applaud her, although he couldn't understand some strange terms in Yingyue's mouth, it didn't hinder his understanding of this passage, and he gave a thumbs up and praised: "Mrs. Yue is really Bingxue smart, and her analysis is very thorough, and she is simply clear." ”
Hotaru Yue thought to herself, it wasn't that the emperor's intention was too obvious, and the arrangement was clear.
But herein lies the problem!
Touching her chin, Hotaru continued to analyze and said in a low voice: "The relationship between the prince and Xie Jingyuan can already be described as two little guesses, why do you quarrel over that little thing?" ”
You must know that the prince is benevolent and never easily criticizes his subordinates, let alone Xie Jingyuan, who is a sibling to the prince.
And Xie Jingyuan, although he has a violent temper, he was called to work overtime by the third watch of the prince in the middle of the night, and he didn't see him have a temper.
What Xu Shuo doesn't understand, in fact, is this.
Seeing Hotaru Yue looking at him suspiciously, he quickly shook his head, indicating that he hadn't figured it out.
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed, and Yingyue hurriedly asked: "That ninth master, is the ninth son of the current emperor and the ninth brother of the crown prince, Zheng Jiangqiu?" ”
"Exactly." Xu Shuo nodded.
Hotaru Yue has heard a little about this ninth master.
"It's because of him."
With a chuckle, Hotaru Moon was already almost touching, confidently putting her hands behind her back and walking towards the main seat.
Seeing this, Xu Shuo, who looked puzzled, hurriedly followed.
After thinking about things that he hadn't figured out for a few days and nights, now that Hotaru had figured it out, his heart was more itchy like being scratched by a cat, and he looked at her expectantly.
He hurriedly said: "Madam, don't play dumb riddles, tell your subordinates quickly." ”
Taking a sip of tea, Yingyue was in a very comfortable mood, and her movements and speech became relaxed and slow, and when she heard Xu Shuo ask her, she didn't rush to answer.
The voice was soft, and Yingyue said slowly as if she was telling a story: "If you want to say that in the capital, there are several young and promising characters with amazing talents, except for Jiang Jiayu, the prince of the Guogong Mansion, who is merciful and merciful everywhere, and Jiang Jiayu, a great master of poetry and painting in the Academy of Calligraphy and Painting, and Xie Jingyuan, who is young and wears many positions and is an important position, and then there is only this ninth master." ”
Before, she didn't listen to Qingyan and Chunlan blowing water in their spare time, mainly because she wasn't very familiar with everything in the capital, anyway, she understood, so why couldn't she start chatting with gossip.
Therefore, Hotaru may not know the same thing as Xu Shuo, but she can also collect a lot of useful information.
And the two maids talk about the most is the famous Ninth Master, the two of them are like a few anecdotes about the Ninth Master, and they are not lost to the illegitimate meals of modern idols.
She has never seen the ninth master, and what she knows about him is at the level of knowing that "he is very good-looking".
After thinking about it, she looked at Xu Shuo curiously and said, "I heard that he is better than Pan An and as beautiful as Song Yu." ”
Observing Xu Shuo's expression carefully, she didn't believe the eyes of the two maids, and she also felt that the gossip would definitely change its taste, but if even Xu Shuo had a sense of crisis, wouldn't it just mean that his appearance was amazingly good-looking!
Please, there are handsome guys who don't like to watch it!
Xu Shuo remembered the appearance of the ladies in the capital who were particularly fond of people's faces when they mentioned the ninth master, and was a little worried in an instant, afraid that Yingyue would follow with him, so he asked timidly: "Mrs. Yue, should you be, right...... The Ninth Master...... Interested, right? ”
After all, everyone has a love for beauty.
Looking at Xu Shuo's reaction, Yingyue finally believed the rumor, it seems that this ninth master is very handsome!
Shaking her head, Hotaru Moon was full of curiosity: "It seems that he is really handsome, and I don't know if there will be a chance to meet him in the future?" ”
"Madam, how can you be like those nymphomaniac ladies in the capital." Xu Shuo said hurriedly.
If Hou Ye knew that it was he who told Hotaru Yue about the Ninth Master, and let Hotaru Yue have such a great interest in the Ninth Master, then he would be dead!
Thinking like this, Xu Shuo wanted to cry without tears.
Seeing his anxious appearance, Hotaru couldn't help but quip, "What are you afraid of?" It's just the two of us here, and it's not okay to talk about it. ”
"Madam, where are you talking about this, it's obvious that you are full of interest in him!" Xu Shuo said.
blushing shyly, Hotaru only felt panicked, and couldn't help but touch her cheeks to cover it.
She couldn't help but ask, "Is this obvious?" ”
"Madam, you are from the Hou Mansion."
Xu Shuo had to say that he was reminding her with a serious face, and Hotaru Yue pursed her mouth and waved her hand: "Okay, okay, let's not mention it." ”
Sure enough, the ideas between men and women are very different, if it is Qingyan or Chunlan, where can they be so serious?
Thinking like this, Hotaru Yue made up her mind to secretly think in her heart, but Xu Shuo couldn't notice it anyway.
Xu Shuo looked at her, feeling uneasy, but the words were all over the place, and it was hard to say anything.
Hotaru cleared her throat and asked, "Let's get back to business, I heard that this ninth master is said to have a very bad relationship with the current emperor?" ”
