Chapter 421: Restaurant Conflict
Successor......
Those three words sound a bit harsh.
The faces of many students in Yongxing College, who were originally relaxed, instantly became solemn.
It's an open secret, and everyone knows it in their hearts.
The gentleman has resigned, and he is leaving the capital after teaching his classmates.
Before leaving the capital, one of them must become the successor of Mr., not only inheriting the power of Yu Lao in the capital for decades, but also becoming the representative of the JAC Group.
And JAC Group will concentrate all its strength to support this person to ascend to the top, and will support this young successor to the front line of the court in the shortest possible time.
This is a great temptation for everyone, which is far more practical than the emperor canonizing a big official.
This is a person who really holds real power, although to a certain extent, the emperor does not like such a person to appear, and it can even be said that he is on the opposite side of the emperor.
But so what?
The JAC Group is not a glorious force, the group is headed by Yu Lao, most of them are wall grass characters, whoever is the emperor will assist whom, there is no loyalty at all.
But because there are too many people who have the right to speak in the world and go with the flow, and the literati are the best at making many excuses for their disloyalty and despicability, they have the blessing of various reasons, so that they have the right to speak in the literary world to a large extent.
Especially in the Jianghuai region, east of the two rivers and the area south of the Yangtze River, the imperial power is not able to intervene, but it is very prosperous, and the Jianghuai Group is to help the imperial power maintain stability.
Therefore, even the emperor did not dare to touch this representative of the JAC Group.
No one wants to control this power, so much so that the current Yongxing Academy has been stared at by all kinds of eyes.
After Bai Song entered the palace, the matter gradually spread, and the classmates all knew that Bai Song was originally the successor chosen by Yu Lao.
It's a pity that after Bai Song entered the palace, he angered the emperor for some reason, causing Bai Song to become the first person in history to be appointed as never an official.
Although it is not explicitly stated, it is clear that the position of JAC's successor is vacant.
Lately, college life has been very bizarre, and no one understands the point of running every day and learning carpentry crafts and things like that.
What is surprising is that under this boring and torturous life, everyone persevered.
Because everyone knows very well that this is not a simple study trip, and if you can perform well enough in this process, you may become a representative of JAC Group.
This kind of temptation has turned all the gentlemen into obedient and well-behaved rabbits, and no one quits halfway.
Everyone is thinking in their hearts who will become the luckiest person in the world.
And today, someone actually picked this matter on the bright side, and the atmosphere in the venue was instantly wrong.
Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, thinking that Lu Yao often shows disgusting arrogance, everyone is quite disdainful.
One of the classmates named Qin Fang sneered: "Hmph...... Lu Yao? There is no one behind him, and there is no fame, so he is worthless, but he has to learn a little. If you want to talk about talent and learning, can you compare it to Bai Song? It's just that there is more than enough to be enough, and what a proud person is the gentleman, how can he value him? I advise you not to listen to people's nonsense, Mr. said, everyone here is his protΓ©gΓ©, and there is no successor at all. β
"No successor?" Lu Yao's friend seemed to be smiling, and looked at Lu Yao, "Brother Lu, what people say is not quite the same as what you say." β
"Hmph, that's why some people are blind! How can such a big event be put on the bright side? As for whether these laymen believe each other or not, what's the point? Then it will be up to them to see how they look. β
Lu Yao didn't explain like that, he was complacent, as if he didn't care about other people's opinions.
Lu Yao's posture is suspicious, but there is really such a thing.
His friend looked left and right, and patted Lu Yao's shoulder with a smile: "That's it, it's rare to see you Lu Yao so proud, I'll believe you once, you have to move around more in the future, we old brothers still count on this future Lord Lu!" β
"Hahaha...... It's easy to say......"
The two of them spoke, shaking their fans and slowly returning to their tables.
The two of them were halfway through when they heard a glass smashing behind them.
"Hugh listens to this man's fart!" The eldest grandson was furious, "I am appointed by the emperor, and the successor of Old Yu must be my eldest grandson!" What kind of bullshit Lu Yao are you, and you deserve it?! β
The eldest grandson held a fan, pointed at Lu Yao, and approached step by step, and everyone stood up nervously.
The table across from him also stood up nervously.
"What are you going to do?" Lu Yao's friend said vigilantly.
"It's about you!" The eldest grandson also ignored it, and pointed to Lu Yao, "Lu Yao, you make it clear to Lao Tzu!" Don't look at yourself like a bird? A poor sour, where is the person who can eat and drink in Fushouan? You fools too, I don't know that this kid is just using this to deceive you into eating and drinking, and he still calls him a brother, it's ridiculous! β
As soon as these words came out, Lu Yao's friends at the same table felt that there was some truth.
Eldest Sun Jian is right, Lu Yao is not a person who can come to Fushouan for dinner, and the friends around him are not iron buddies, they are all people who wanted to stammer but couldn't stammer.
Several of them are also the children of the families of important ministers in the court, and their status is not inferior to that of the eldest grandson.
In the past, these people didn't bother to take care of this Lu Yao at all, but today I heard that he has become the successor of Yu Lao, and this time they enthusiastically invited him to have a meal in Fushou'an.
Listening to what Changsun Jian said, everyone suddenly became suspicious, and said in their hearts, how could it be Lu Yao?
In addition to being a little talented, this person does not have any potential to be the successor of Yu Lao, could it be that as the eldest grandson said, he is pretending to be a name to cheat and cheat?
The expressions of the friends around him changed, and they grabbed Lu Yao's wrist: "Brother Lu, we are sincere to you, don't let people down." β
At this time, Lu Yao didn't panic at all, but looked at his friends with a sneer: "You really think that Lu Yao is the kind of brazen person?" So let's show you today! β
As he spoke, Lu Yao took out a piece of square jade from his waist.
The texture of this jade is extraordinary, and at first glance it is a priceless treasure, but at first glance it feels like a decorative thing, and I don't know what is strange.
When everyone watched, only Yu Ji sighed softly: "This is ...... Bosch Seal. How...... How can it be in your hands? β
Lu Yao flipped up with Fang Yu in his hand and hung the bottom in front of everyone.
It turned out that this jade was a seal.
The so-called Bo Shi Bao seal is engraved with the private seal of Yu time-honored brand.
This is Yu Lao's personal thing, which is used for his own calligraphy and painting, nomination and signature.
This is a symbolic object of the literati and will never be handed over to others!
Since the rise of the Han Dynasty, there is an old man who gives a seal, one to indicate that the pen is sealed from this, and it means that there is a mantle of inheritance.
Lu Yao held Yu Lao's private seal, unless it was stolen, otherwise it meant to let Lu Yao inherit the mantle.
If it was stolen, Lu Yao would not be so bold to look in front of everyone.
Therefore, when this piece of Boshi treasure seal came out, the audience was in an uproar!
In the past, everyone could question it no matter how they wanted, but now that Elder Yu gave Lu Yao a private seal, it is the best proof that Lu Yao wants to inherit the mantle.
For a while, everyone was speechless, and there was a look of horror in their eyes.
The friends around him also gave it away, and he gave it over again and again, accompanied by a smiling face, this Lu Yao is a wealthy gentleman in Beijing one day, and it is not too much to say a disrespectful word compared to controlling half of the country!
Who would dare to provoke such a potential minister?
"Brother Lu, don't blame, we just talk casually, and we won't doubt what Brother Lu said, I'll go back and punish myself with three cups, and punish myself with three cups!"
"Humph!" Lu Yao snorted coldly, he didn't care, turned around and glanced at Changsun Lian, "Changsun Lian, can you understand it now?" β
The eldest grandson was dumbfounded and couldn't believe it: "This is impossible! It's absolutely impossible! How could the gentleman choose you? I...... I am the emperor's appointee! I have the emperor's royal gift in my hand to 'come to the palace', isn't it right to choose me? β
"Hahaha......" Lu Yao couldn't stop laughing, scanning everyone, "The eldest grandson family controls the Guanlong Group, and its power is even greater than that of the JAC Group, may the emperor let the second son of the eldest grandson family become the representative of the JAC Group?" In the future, the eldest grandson family will control the two major groups of Guanlong and Jianghuai, and the emperor's throne will be unstable at that time! Mr. has been in officialdom for many years, how can he pass on such a role to you? Are you still dreaming? Want to become a JAC representative? What a joke! Hahaha......"
