"yes, chance. Remember what I said to you? I said that the backer is very important, and if you choose the wrong backer and stand on the wrong team, you will die without a place to be buried. But what if you choose the right backer and stand in the right position? Then it will go all the way and soar. That's the difference between the two. Wu Chunlai said slowly.

"But, didn't Lord Wu already say that I can't get out anymore? I've done so many things for King Liang, can't I get rid of it anymore? Lin Jue frowned.

"Hehe, here's the problem, you are considered to be King Liang's person, and King Liang is unlucky, you naturally can't escape it. But what if you're just someone who is the king of Liang on the surface, but actually has another backer? Then when the truth is revealed, even if Liang Wangfu falls, you will not be implicated, because your relationship with Liang Wangfu is fake. As long as your real backer proves it for you, and the power of that backer is strong enough, you won't suffer any disadvantage. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ How can I be so confused when I hear this? I don't understand what this means? Lin Jue asked with a puzzled face.

At this point, Lin Jue's heart was actually a little open. Today, Wu Chunlai's purpose for calling himself to talk has been faintly understood, and he is likely to plot against himself today. If this is the case, Lin Jue not only has to admire Yan Zhengsu's foresight. Not long ago, Yan Zhengsu's words of warning himself were still in his ears, he warned himself to prevent others from using himself as a breakthrough, and warned himself not to follow Wu Chun's example of betraying humanity and making despicable deeds. And now, it seems to be coming true.

"It's very simple, find another backer to protect you, even if the affairs of the palace involve you in the future, as long as you have a backer to protect you, you can sit back and relax." Wu Chunlai said quietly.

Lin Jue frowned and said, "It turns out that this is what the adults meant, but ...... Who can I find to be a backer? This person must be powerful and talented, otherwise who would dare to excuse me? After all, once the East Window incident happened, it would be a serious case involving Liang Wangfu, and if you want to protect me in this kind of serious case, I'm afraid that only the saint will speak. And I am just a grass people, how can the saint care about me, a grass people? ”

"Hehe, junior brother, what am I talking about? I said that you are still very tender, and you don't know the inside at all. I'm afraid you think that Lord Liang is the most powerful person besides today's saints. No wonder you desperately stammered with Lord Liang and wanted to hug the thighs of the palace. Your knowledge is too shallow. The second uncle in your family is also the deputy envoy of the third department, didn't he tell you about the pattern of the court? Hey, that's ridiculous. Wu Chunlai shook his head and sighed.

Lin Jue frowned and shook his head in confusion and said, "My second uncle didn't tell me anything about the court, do I think it's wrong?" Could it be that apart from the saints, is there anyone more noble than King Liang? ”

Wu Chunlai said with a smile: "If you talk about the noble status, there is naturally no one in the court who can compare with the prince of Liang, after all, the prince of Liang is the younger brother of the saint today, and he is the respect of the prince." But being noble doesn't mean you're the most powerful. In today's court, there are more people who speak more than Lord Liang. The heads of the two governments are much more powerful than Liang Wangye. Today, Lu Xiang, Yang Shumi, and even the heads of key departments in the DPRK and China are more talkative than Liang Wangye. You're confused. ”

Lin Jue seemed to have a sudden realization, and smacked his lips and said: "I understand, what adults mean is that a truly powerful person must have real power in his hands, and although Prince Liang is a prince, he doesn't have much real power in his hands." ”

Wu Chunlai smiled: "Don't you know very well in your heart? Exactly. Of course, King Liang's words were not useless. The people who came out of the Liang Wangfu also served in the court, and these people still listened to what the Liang prince said, and he could exert influence through these people. Even if it was Lu Xiang and Yang Shumi, they couldn't completely ignore King Liang's words, and they had to give some face. But if you really want to compare the truth, the power of Lu Xiang and Yang Shumi is much greater than that of Liang Wangfu. ”

Lin Jue said: "What does Lord Wu mean is that as long as I find Lu Xiang and Yang Shu to protect me, I can sit back and relax?" ”

Wu Chunlai said with a smile: "Exactly, it's a pity that Yang Shumi can't protect you." He doesn't sell anyone's face in the court, and it is extremely difficult to climb his relationship. ”

Lin Jue smiled bitterly: "That's natural, I seem to have heard the second uncle say that Yang Shumi doesn't even care much about Prime Minister Lu, what ability do I have to do with him?" Isn't this wishful thinking? ”

Wu Chunlai smiled and said, "Little junior brother, I naturally can't introduce you to Yang Shumi, but where can I help Lu Xiang." You also know the relationship between me and Lu Xiang, to put it mildly, I still have some status in Lu Xiang's heart. If I introduce me to Lu Xiang, a little junior brother, Lu Xiang may sell me face. ”

Lin Jue pretended to be surprised: "Really? Is Lord Wu really willing to introduce Lu Xiang to me? That's great. If Lu Xiangruo is willing to excuse me, what am I afraid of? ”

Wu Chunlai stroked his beard and smiled, looked at Lin Jue with a surprised face, and said: "That's natural, if Lu Xiangru is willing to protect you, you will commit the heinous crime, and you can also save the day." However, things are not as easy as you think, although Lu Xiang will give me some thin noodles, I can't recommend everyone. ”

Lin Jue was stunned and said, "Adults don't plan to introduce me for me?" So what else to say? Lu Xiang doesn't know me, Lin Jue is the oldest. But I don't blame adults, adults really don't need to bother with me, after all, I don't have much friendship with adults. On the contrary, I have offended adults with my words. ”

Wu Chunlai smiled and said: "Little junior brother, you can't help but think of me as too stingy, how can I hold a grudge for a few words from you." Besides, I've always looked at you as a junior brother, and even if you were rude to me because of my husband, I didn't intend to blame you. What I mean is that under Lu Xiang, there are absolutely no useless people, and the mediocre people are personally recommended by the saint, and Lu Xiang's temper is absolutely useless. So if I recommend you to Lu Xiang, I need to have a reason for the introduction. I can't say that you are my junior brother, so I will introduce you for personal gain, which will also make Lu have an opinion on me. ”

Lin Jue wrinkled and said with relief: "I see, I am wrong to blame the adult." However, this matter still can't be done, I think I, Lin Jue, a grass person, can have any ability. What can Lu Xiang value? It's useless. ”

Wu Chunlai smiled and said: "You look down on yourself, how can you be so arrogant?" Little junior brother, of course you are not useless, you still have your talents and abilities, and I can see it with my own eyes. These things you did for the Liang Palace, the birthday ceremony, the suppression of bandits, and even the recent Oiran Contest, how could this be done by ordinary people? These things are enough to prove your ability. But these are not enough, after all, the things you did before were not used by Lu Xiang. If you want Lu Xiang to value you, you need to have something to repay Lu Xiang. That's the point. ”

Lin Jue spread his hands and smiled bitterly: "What can I repay Lu Xiang for my current identity?" I have nothing, does Lu Xiang want silver? I could have given some silver gifts or something. ”

Wu Chunlai smiled dumbly and reprimanded: "Childish, do you think Lu Xiang will be interested in money? How many people lined up to give gold and silver, Lu Xiang didn't give them the opportunity to send money at all. You businessmen always think that money is everything. Money is a good thing, but at some point, money is the most useless thing. If Lu Xiangruo nodded, his home was a mountain of gold and silver in an instant. Money is nothing like dung in Lu Xiang's eyes! ”

Lin Jue scratched his head and said, "Then I can't think of anything else to repay." ”

Wu Chunlai said quietly: "Of course you have, you can repay Lu Xiang with loyalty." ”

Lin Jue smiled and said: "Lu Xiangken is willing to help, I am naturally loyal to Lu Xiang, do you need to ask?" ”

Wu Chunlai said with a smile: "It's not possible to say it verbally, Lu Xiang looks at people's actual actions, not verbal promises, and those are unreliable." ”

Lin Jue smacked his lips and said: "I'm nothing now, just a grass people, what actions can I use to prove myself?" Unless I win the imperial examination in the future, I can naturally show my loyalty with practical actions. ”

Wu Chunlai smiled and said, "Who knows what will happen in the future?" If you can express your faithfulness now, why wait until the future? If you really want me to introduce Lu Xiang for you and let Lu Xiang promote you, you have to show your value now. ”

Lin Jue frowned, looked at Wu Chunlai's sparkling eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Lord Wu, please make it clear, I really don't know where I can serve Lu Xiang." ”

Wu Chunlai smiled: "Okay, I'll make it clear." Your current identity is very special, you are not only a guest of the Liang Palace, but also a solemn and solemn person. You should have heard the news that Yan Zhengsu will be transferred to the capital to enter the political affairs hall as the deputy prime minister, this person ...... is a little out of tune with Lu Xiang, and after he is transferred to the political affairs hall, he may do something unpredictable. If you can find out some of Yan Zhengsu's thoughts or some measures in advance, and can tell Lu Xiang in time, maybe this can make Lu Xiang have some psychological preparation and avoid unnecessary conflicts in the future. This is a good thing for the stability of the government and for Lu Xiang and Yan Zhengsu. ”

Lin Jue's face was calm, but it was difficult to calm down in his heart. It's one thing to guess, it's another when it comes to reality. Sure enough, after sparing the circle for a long time, he finally found out and learned Wu Chunlai's true intentions.

"Hmm...... In addition, the relationship between King Liang and King LΓΌ Xiang has always been not harmonious, if you can take advantage of the convenience of going in and out of King Liang's side to find out some things about King Liang and report to LΓΌ Xiang, it may be a good thing to avoid conflicts between LΓΌ Xiang and King Liang. In a word...... If they have any behaviors and measures, you have to find out and report them in advance, so that Lu Xiang can deal with them in advance, reduce some misunderstandings with Yan Zheng Su Liang Wang and others, and avoid conflicts. This should be something that makes Lu Xiang very happy, and Lu Xiang will definitely take a look at you. ”

Wu Chun finished speaking, quietly watching Lin Jue's reaction. He has been thinking about this matter for the past few days, and he really wants to plant a nail in Yan Zhengsu and Liang Wangfu, because Yan Zhengsu is about to be transferred to the capital as deputy minister, which is anxious news for Lu Zhongtian. What's even more uncomfortable is that this is an appointment by the Holy Lord himself, which shows that Yan Zhengsu's appointment definitely has some connotations. How can there be two people who want to be the master in the political hall, so if you can put an eye and ear next to Yan Zhengsu, it will be an extremely valuable thing.

Yan Zhengsu is very cautious in employing people, and the people around him are not easy to rebel. This person must be able to find inside information and not be easily detected. After thinking about it, Wu Chunlai thought that Lin Jue was the best candidate. Not only because Lin felt solemn and solemn, but also because Lin Jue was Fang Dunru's disciple. Fang Dunru will also be transferred to the capital, it is obvious that he will be Yan Zhengsu's sworn friend, through Fang Dunru can obtain Yan Zhengsu's secret, and Lin Jue is the only best person who can learn the secret from Fang Dunru's mouth. This echoes the characteristics of being both far and near, and not easily noticed, but the news can be detected. It can be said that Lin Jue's identity is tailor-made for this candidate.

What's even more valuable is that Lin Jue is actually the guest of King Liang. Being able to get the inside information of King Liang's Mansion is obviously what Lu Zhongtian wants to do the most. If he could obtain more control from King Liang, Lu Zhongtian would have more opportunities to completely eliminate this political enemy who had been hostile to him for decades. Therefore, Lin Jue is almost a living treasure in Wu Chunlai's eyes. That's why he stayed in Hangzhou and didn't want to leave, just to find out some things, so as to find something that could persuade or coerce Lin Jue to comply. He did have a lot of gains, he knew a lot about what Lin Jue did in Hangzhou, and the details of his interactions with Yan Zhengsu and others in Liang Wangfu, among which Zhang Yi, the general judge of Hangzhou, contributed the most.

Lin Jue was silent, and the matter was already in front of him. Although he was aware of it in advance, this short time was not enough for Lin Jue to respond. He needs to think carefully about what to do.

Seeing that Lin Jue was silent, Wu Chunlai further persuaded bitterly: "Little junior brother, this is a great opportunity, I dare to guarantee that if you can do these things for Lu Xiang, Lu Xiang will definitely give you a big boost." In this way, you have the promotion of the prince of Yan Zheng Su Liang in the open, and the help of Lu Xiang in secret, and it is a sure thing to soar. There is no one who can get the help of so many powerful people. Come to think of it, even I'm jealous. Don't miss this opportunity. There is one thing I can tell you, do you know who the most favored prince of the Holy Heaven is today? It's the second prince, King Huai, Guo Xu. Guo Xu was born to Concubine Mei, and Concubine Mei is the daughter of Lu Xiang, do you understand this relationship? The saint likes King Huai the most, and King Huai will inherit the throne in the future. So, do you understand this truth? In today's imperial court, only Lu Xiang will stand tall, no matter who he is, don't look at him for a while. There will always be a downfall in the future. I don't need to say much about this. You are so young, if you can make great achievements, it is only a matter of time before you will be in power in the future. Do you think I'm right? ”

Wu Chunlai looked at Lin Jue with blazing eyes, and his gaze was stabbing like a sword, making Lin Jue feel a huge sense of oppression and discomfort. He was waiting for Lin Jue's answer. At this point, Wu Chunlai couldn't allow Lin Jue to refuse, because he told Lin Jue a lot of secrets, and this was all to persuade Lin Jue. These secrets must not be divulged, otherwise they will be left behind to eat themselves.

Lin Jue's mind was very clear, and he had already sorted out the key points of the matter. Almost immediately, he could know the fundamental starting point and the basic context of all of this. Why did Wu Chunlai rebel against himself and report to them, naturally for the sake of politics. The need for struggle. Yan Zhengsu is about to enter Beijing, and the Liang Wangfu has always been Lu Zhongtian's political enemy, and the privy envoy Yang Jun is not something that he Lu Zhongtian can control, so in fact, in the near future, the forces in the Great Zhou court will become extremely chaotic. And this confusion will have unpredictable results in the major event of the crown prince. In order to compete for the final crown prince, Lu Zhongtian must find out the details of each side one by one, and for his enemies, he must be severely purged or coerced, so that placing important eyeliner around the other party is the most important and necessary thing.

Unfortunately, he was targeted by them, and Wu Chunlai came to find himself to play this role.

Lin Jue knew that the current situation was actually very tricky. Today, since Wu Chunlai brought himself here to meet in this way, it shows that he is actually ready. Obviously, he is the person of King Liang and Yan Zhengsu, but Wu Chunlai actually revealed a lot of things that should not be told to himself today, and these secrets seem to be not told to him at all, which shows Wu Chunlai's determination to rebel against him.

However, the more this is the case, the more you can't easily refuse. Just imagine, since he had told himself so many secrets, how could Wu Chunlai allow himself to easily refuse his proposal. In a way, today's situation is actually very dangerous. Lin Jue could imagine that once he rejected Wu Chunlai's proposal and chose an uncooperative attitude, it was very likely that he would die today. It is impossible for Wu Chunlai to allow himself to report today's events to Yan Zhengsu or Liang Wangfu.

However, if he agrees to Wu Chunlai's request, becomes the eyeliner that Lu Zhongtian and Wu Chunlai put next to King Liang and Yan Zhengsu, and reports to them to spy on secrets, Lin Jue will never accept it. Wu Chunlai himself did a despicable act back then, and now he actually wants to force himself to follow the path he did back then and make the same betrayal behavior as him, but he miscalculated.

Because of this, at this moment, the matter is actually in an embarrassing situation that is difficult to solve. Wu Chunlai was waiting for his answer, once he refused, the next moment Wu Chunlai would summon someone to come in and kill his mouth. Although he is not afraid of death, he has done so many things with his head and has not died, but he died here in an unknown way, isn't it too wrong. And I don't want to die, although this life is still bumpy, but I am living a good life, how can I not give up my good life, give up my life.

"Little junior brother, what are you hesitating about? This is a good thing for you, and it can even be said to be a great opportunity in your life. I've made the truth clear, what are you hesitating about? Wu Chunlai's voice was cold with a hint of coldness.

Lin Jue sighed lightly and said, "My lord, I'm afraid I can't agree to my lord." ”

"What?" Wu Chunlai couldn't hide the disappointment in his eyes, and the smile on his face slowly became a little hideous. "I've been talking about this for a long time, and I've been analyzing the situation with you for a long time, but you still don't understand your situation? Don't you want to soar? Would you rather be a funeral for King Liang when you settle accounts in the autumn in the future? You've let me down so much. ”

Lin Jue arched his hand and said: "Lord Wu, it's not that I don't know how to lift, I have listened to what you say, but I can't rashly agree to you." I'm not doing this for myself, but for the sake of you, Lord Wu. ”

"What? For my sake? Wu Chunlai pointed to his nose and almost laughed.

"Yes, I'm really thinking about Lord Wu. Adults love me so much, Lin Jue is grateful. The adults showed me a clear path, which can not only have a bright future, but also avoid future risks, which is unforgettable. But the more this is the case, the more I can't fool you. Lin Jue's words were sincere.

"What do you mean? How can I be confused by the more you talk. If you are grateful for my love for you, you should agree to it, what did you say to deceive me? Wu Chunlai frowned and asked.

"Lord Wu, you are willing to introduce Lu Xiang to you, how can you not be grateful? I am also willing to do things for Lu Xiang, and I will not hesitate to do anything. But the problem is that I can't do what the adults have asked me to do. I can't do what the adults said I want right now. You think, Governor Yan is going to the capital soon, and Mr. is also going to the capital as an official. And I can't go with it. I'm just an ordinary person now, and although I have the ambition to take the imperial examination, I'm afraid only God knows whether I can win the imperial examination. If my name is Sun Shan, I can only do business in Hangzhou, and it is impossible to go to the capital to be by the side of Mr. Yan Zhifu, how can I fulfill the trust of Lord Wu? Isn't this a break in front of Lu Xiang? Isn't it that Lu is dissatisfied with Lord Wu? Isn't this a pit, what is Lord Wu? Lin Jue said that he was full of words.

"This ......" Wu Chunlai was speechless for a while, but he was speechless.

"Therefore, I can't just agree to this matter as I am happy, and if I can't fulfill what the adults have entrusted me, am I not a cheater? So in the next thought, it is better to wait for the imperial examination to see if I can have the fate to pass the imperial examination, and then make a decision. After all, if I'm just a businessman doing business in Hangzhou, then I can't let Lord Wu introduce me, a businessman who is useless, right? If the smoke on the ancestral grave of the Lin family makes me win the imperial examination, then I don't need you to say it, I will go and ask the adults to introduce me for me. At that time, the Lord asked Lu Xiang to carry out activities for me, and keep me as an official in the capital, so that I can serve Lu Xiang and my lord. Am you right? Adults won't be scolded by Lu Xiang, right? ”

Wu Chunlai was stunned, but he was not moved by what Lin Jue said about his own sake. Because there is nothing to worry about at all, and Lu Xiang will not blame himself or anything at all, it is just his own set of statements to Lin Jue.

But what Lin Jue said was something he didn't take into account. Yes, if Lin Jue couldn't pass the imperial examination at all, how could he become a pawn by Yan Zhengsu's side? Only when Lin Juezhong moves into the office, this matter is possible. Unless Lin Jue served Fang Dunru in the name of a disciple, but he did his own understanding, Lin Jue worshipped Fang Dunru as a teacher so far, and he did not serve in the Fang family at all. This is a bit deliberate, but it may lead to suspicion. From this point of view, it seems that he is too anxious, and he should think about it before he clarifies this matter to Lin Jue.

But the current situation is that I have already had a showdown, can I say that I have given up halfway? What should Lin Jue do when he goes out and talks nonsense? And Lin Jue is really the best candidate, if he really can't pass the imperial examination, he is just a businessman's life in this life, so what?

"My lord, it's better to be like this, I will work hard to prepare for the exam next time, and strive for the title of the gold list, and then the adult will introduce Lu Xiang to me, and I will have the qualifications and identity. Then things can be done as you have just said. In this way, the adults will not be scolded in front of Lu Xiang. What do you think? Lin Jue said softly.
