Zhuan Yuwang's footsteps were paused, he turned his head to look at Xu Jie, and a smile appeared on his face and said:

"Master Xu, why are you here?"

"I'll come and see Your Highness." Xu Jie walked towards King Yu with a kind smile on his face.

"Is there something wrong with Master Xu?" But he didn't expect King Yu to ask.

Xu Jie's face froze, and then he squeezed out a smile and said, "It's nothing, it's just ......"

"Since it's okay, I'll talk to Master Xu in detail next time, I'm still going to have something to do."

After the words fell, King Yu got into the sedan chair, and the guards protected King Yu as he walked past the stiff Xu Jie, and soon disappeared from Xu Jie's eyes.

Xu Jie took a deep breath, looked at the guard at the door and said, "Your Highness, where are you going?" ”

One of the guards replied respectfully, "It's going to Luofu." ”

"Luo Xin?"

"Hmm!"

Xu Jie's face became very ugly, flicked the sleeves of his robe, entered the sedan chair, and shouted:

"Go home!"

In Xu Jie's study, Xu Luqing looked at Xu Jie's embarrassed face and asked softly:

"Father, what's wrong? Yuwang is not there? ”

"Yes, just for his father to meet him at the door, he didn't invite his father in, but went directly to Luo Xin."

"Huh?" Xu Luqing screamed in surprise, and then his face gradually became gloomy. Half ringing, with a worried look on his face, said:

"Father, King Yu ......"

"Alas......" Xu Jie sighed and said, "Lu Qing, Luo Xin has the talent of the cabinet. On the one hand, he's too young these days. On the other hand, it is because His Majesty is jealous of him. So His Majesty has been suppressing Luo Xin. However, once King Yu ascends the throne, judging from the current situation, Luo Xin will definitely enter the cabinet. As a father, he was still negligent in King Yu before! I always thought that I was the teacher of King Yu, and I was the first assistant of the cabinet. Even if King Yu ascended the throne, he would not dare to move my position. Now it seems that it is for the sake of the father to take it for granted. ”

After being silent for a while, Xu Luqing said in a low voice: "Father means that once King Yu ascends the throne, Luo Xin will enter the cabinet to replace his father's position?" ”

Xu Jie waved his hand and said: "That's not true, the place of the father will be the high arch, and Luo Xin will take the place of the high arch." ”

Xu Luqing suddenly became nervous and said, "Are you saying that Luo Xin and Gao Gong will join forces to squeeze you out of the cabinet?" ”

Gao Gong has always wanted to sit in the position of the first assistant of the cabinet, but now it seems that the most important person in Yuwang's heart is not Gao Gong, but Luo Xin. If King Yu insists on promoting Luo Xin to the position of the first assistant of the cabinet at once, it will inevitably attract strong resistance between me and Gao Gong. It won't work out.

However, if King Yu agreed to give Gao Gong the position of the first assistant of the cabinet, the condition was that Luo Xin would be allowed to enter the cabinet as the second assistant. Gao Gong will definitely agree. Then the two men will join forces to cast out the Father. ”

"This ...... How is it good? Xu Luqing was anxious.

He knew all too well what that meant. Now the Xu family is no longer what it used to be. The Xu family was repented of by their two younger brothers, and many Shilin turned to Gaogong. If Xu Jie is dismissed again, the Xu family will quickly decline.

"Father, is it really irreparable on King Yu's side?"

Xu Jie lowered his eyes and pondered, the study became silent, and the air seemed to have weight, crowded from all directions, suffocating. For a full two quarters of an hour, Xu Jie raised his eyes, shook his head lightly and said:

"Now Yuwang has six teachers, as his father, Gao Gong, Zhang Juzheng, Luo Xin, Yin Shidan, and Chen Yiqin. Yin Shidan and Chen Yinqin can be put aside, they are still in the prison of the Criminal Department. In this way, only four people remained: Father, Gao Gong, Zhang Juzheng and Luo Xin.

To be honest, being a father and Gao Gong should be the same status in King Yu's heart. Think about it carefully, the position of Father and Gao Gong in front of King Yu is different from the position of Luo Xin in front of King Yu.

Gao Gong and I put ourselves in the position of Teacher Yuwang, a real teacher, and ignored the identity of a courtier. Therefore, there is more majesty, but there is not enough family affection.

Before Luo Xin came, King Yu was very afraid of me and Gao Gong. There are several reasons for this, on the one hand, King Yu is not the crown prince, and on the other hand, Gao Gong and I are both in the cabinet. With the position of the two of us, don't say that King Yu is not the crown prince, even if he is the prince, he must be careful with the two of us. Because the two of us are on the side, there is a great possibility that it will dominate whether he can become the prince or not. That's where he fears us. Third, even if King Yu finally becomes the emperor, he still needs to rely on me and Gao Gong to govern the world for him, so whether he is just a royal highness now or an emperor in the future, he has to value the two of us and fear the two of us in his heart.

Not to mention......

Yuwang was originally a cowardly person!

Gao Gong and I are like two big trees, and he King Yu is just a vine attached to the two of us. The reason why Gao Gong and I are willing to support Yuwang is not all because the two of us are Yuwang's teachers, and we also value Yuwang's cowardly character. Only by supporting King Yu to ascend the throne can we realize the highest ideal of our scholars.

King Jing has a violent personality, which is not something we can easily control. This is the reason why both of us chose to support King Yu, and it is also the reason why the two of us are strict with King Yu, so that when King Yu is still His Royal Highness, he will be afraid of us, so that after he ascends the throne, he will be able to realize the emperor's reign, but the real power is in the hands of our scholars, and realize the ideals of our scholars.

We've been doing a good job, and Yuwang is very dependent on us and very intimidating. If this continues, the father is sure that after King Yu ascends the throne, the father will be able to realize his lifelong ideal, govern the Ming Dynasty smoothly, and compete with the Tang Dynasty. Although, at that time, there were also Yin Shidan and Chen Yiqin, but the two of them were just clowns. As for Gao Gong, he was not a cabinet at that time, and even if he entered the cabinet later, his qualifications and abilities were not as good as his father. After King Yu ascended the throne, his father must be the first person in the Ming Dynasty.

And his father sent Zhang Juzheng to King Yu early, and after his father retired, he supported Zhang Juzheng to the position of the first assistant of the cabinet, and he could ensure that our Xu family was rich for decades.

This is the Father's plan, both for the public and for the private.

It is not because he is wrong to be a father, and the teachers of the Li Dynasty in the past have done this like his father.

It's just that since Luo Xin came, everything has changed. At first, Luo Xin became Yuwang's teacher, and his father didn't care. It's just one more teacher, although my father won't go to teach Yuwang because of being in the cabinet, but with Taiyue there, my father is very relieved. Besides, Luo Xin's status in the court cannot be compared with that of his father. Yuwang should understand who is more important. ”
