Chapter 1299 The true meaning of officialdom
Lin Weiran said it calmly, but it was obviously soft and hard, and it was even more indignant.
Not to mention that he is not a cat or a dog, even if he is deceived like this, he has to give an explanation to the other party. But at this point, Guo Pu is still so tough, which is clearly a disrespect for them.
Guo Pu was in charge of the promotion of all officials, and even Xu Jie had to respect him three points. Facing a junior like Lin Qingran, he immediately responded with a stern face and toughness: "Just! Why should my dignified Minister of Personnel explain to you?"
"You are not explaining to me! You are treacherous now, but you owe my father-in-law an explanation and my fellow students an explanation!" Lin Xianran looked at Guo Pu's angry gaze and said tit-for-tat.
Guo Pu felt that the word "bendlessness" was particularly harsh, and even caused him an inexplicable fire. He immediately snorted coldly and said, "You are all too naive and you are responsible for your own fault!"
When things came to this point, he didn't want to continue disguising himself. This kid was so forced to tell the other party that he simply made it clear.
"In this way, are you going to break up with us?" Lin Weiran's face slightly darkened, and he asked for verification again.
Guo Pu faced Lin Shiran's gaze, but said with confidence: "So what about breaking? This officialdom has endless variables. Although you do have some potential, it may not be better than it is in ten years!"
After more than 20 years of ups and downs in the officialdom, he clearly realized that if he wanted to climb to the position of prime minister, his qualifications and ability alone were far from enough, and he also had extraordinary political wisdom.
Like Zhang Cong, the former Minister of Personnel, entered the cabinet from a second-level Jinshi in just six years, and then became the chief minister of the Ming Dynasty. In contrast, Li Mo, the former Minister of Personnel, who had qualifications and ability, not only failed to become the new chief minister, but instead died of slimness in prison.
Lin Xuran now has the advantage of age, but it is not enough to climb to the real core position.
What's more, he is now the Minister of Personnel and has received the favor of the emperor.
As long as Wu Shan is successfully eliminated, Yuan Wei and Yan Ne are not a threat at all. After Xu Jie retreats, he will be the new Ming Dynasty chief minister. At that time, countless hands will be cut off and destroyed.
That's true, Lin Qingran deliberately threatened him in front of his son, which was actually just a joke. Whether this kid, who seemed to have a bright future, can continue to be in the officialdom in ten years, not to mention joining the cabinet and becoming a prime minister.
"If it breaks, then we will no longer be a political alliance, but a political enemy!" Lin Shiran said seriously in front of the lofty Guo Pu.
At this moment, he finally knew exactly what Guo Pu was thinking, and could see the situation in the court more clearly.
Before coming to Guo’s mansion, he went to Wushan and revealed the information that Guo Pu gave Zhou Youqing’s assessment to Wushan. But even so, Wushan still tended to trust Guo Pu.
In order to make his father-in-law give up and to give his fellow students a clear message, he decided to come to Guo’s house to go through this showdown directly with Guo Pu.
But the facts are so cruel. Guo Pu Guo has been deceiving him. Even though the matter has been exposed, Guo Pu not only did not apologize to them, but was still so righteous.
虽然他早就知道官场的情份是薄如纸,但面对着郭朴仍然有狂揍对方一顿的冲动.
Although the butler saw hostility in Lin Weiran's eyes, he swallowed and spitted secretly. Seeing that he and Guo Pu were the only ones left in the side hall, he couldn't help but use his eyes to find a well-known self-defense weapon.
Guo Pu is a strong-willed person. Although he knew that breaking up with the other party would lead to hatred, he still responded without hesitation: "If you think so, that's the case!"
Lin Weiran saw a hint of contempt on Guo Pu's face, and then moved his heart, and immediately speculated: "Your real purpose cannot be just to get rid of a bunch of irrelevant juniors, right? At the beginning, what you really want to get rid of is my father-in-law!"
After years of officialdom, he is no longer the novice of the officialdom he used to be.
The reason why I believed that Guo Pu would help them was because Guo Pu and Xu Jie had a potential conflict of interest. The most important thing is that Guo Pu was a minister of the Ministry of Personnel, and there was no reason to get rid of Ning Jiang and others.
When things have come to this point, if Guo Pu is targeting his father-in-law, everything will be explained again.
Although Yuan Wei was the second assistant, he was a Jinshi in the 17th year of Jiajing. Not only did he have no foundation, he was also too frivolous and did not pose much threat to Guo Pu.
But his father-in-law has a very high reputation in the officialdom, a large group of gradually growing disciples, and has deep qualifications and abilities. This is the biggest threat to Guo Pu's position as the chief assistant in the future.
After all, officials in this officialdom were chasing power. Yan Song eliminated Xia Yan, Li Mo and others for the sake of power, Xu Jie overthrew Yan Song for the sake of power, and Guo Pu naturally had reason to eliminate his father-in-law for power.
Although I don’t know what methods the other party will use, this is undoubtedly Guo Pu’s true intention.
Guo Pu looked at Lin Qingran in surprise, but thinking that it would not affect the result if it was broken down at this time, he nodded suddenly, looked at Lin Qingran and blamed him: "All this is because of you! If you hadn't been making trouble with Brother Yu Jing, I wouldn't have ignored my past affection, and Yuan Fu wouldn't have chosen to attack your father-in-law!"
Xu Jie?
Lin Qingran immediately knew that this was a joint effort by Guo Pu and Xu Jie. While secretly feeling the situation was serious, facing Guo Pu's accusations, he also shook his head with a wry smile.
This matter seems to be mixed with political disputes, but it is not an important factor. It is because these people want to get rid of their father-in-law's excuse and find a high-sounding reason for their party to fight against each other.
Lin Qingran did not argue with Guo Pu on this matter, but looked at Guo Pu and said lightly: "There is one thing you are actually wrong!"
"What's the matter!" Guo Pu asked curiously.
Lin Qingran looked into Guo Pu's eyes and said seriously: "I have never thought of liquidating your Guo Mansion ten years later!"
Guo Pu stared at Lin Weiran with a puzzled look on his face.
Lin Weiran stood up from his seat, bowed to Guo Puyi, who was sitting upright on the master's seat, and turned around and left directly.
Officialdom has always been ruthless, and this is not false.
Yan Song was supported by Xia Yan in the past, but he sold Xia Yan again.
Xu Jie was also supported by Yan Song, and the two families also got married. He even moved his household registration to Jiangxi to form a fellow villager with Yan Song, but he still quietly brought Yan Song down.
Guo Pu may not have attacked Xiao Jinian and other juniors, but it might be a welcome thing to force his father-in-law to leave the court. After all, there has never been any affection in this officialdom, only the pursuit of power.
