Chapter Five Hundred and Eighteenth Everyone Go to Pull Relationships!
Wang Guobao smacked his lips with disdain.
"Uncle, why are you so anxious?"
"Since I have found you today, I want to tell you the inside story so that you can be prepared before Wang Mi and the others come back."
"Would I not tell the truth?"
Yes!
You read that right!
Although Wang Guobao is a bad-tempered person and is lazy and cunning, today's gathering was indeed convened by him.
Ever since they heard the news that Xie Xuan was about to lead the Beifu army back to the court, several members of the emerging groups in the Jin Dynasty were eager to get together and discuss important matters.
However, what major matters can be discussed when sitting together? There must be some valuable news, and it is necessary for several backbone ministers of the court to meet.
It wasn't until Wang Guobao heard the rumors about the court from his cousin that he began to summon a few cobblers to meet urgently at Chen's House.
"Your Majesty's move is precisely to sow discord between the Xie family and the Wang family, so that the two aristocratic families will fight against each other and consume their strength."
"Your Majesty, he leaves all matters to Xie An to decide. As for himself, he just takes matters into his own hands and doesn't express his opinions, letting them fight over each other."
"When the time comes, Your Majesty will watch the situation change and mediate. However, that time will not come until at least the two families are fighting to the death."
"I knew it!"
"Your Majesty will never allow the Xie family to grow bigger!"
"Very good!"
"Yuezhi, our chance has come!" Fan Ning pulled Yuan Yuezhi excitedly and spat, but Yuan Yuezhi behaved calmly.
Among the few people, he currently has the highest position in the court, and he is also the closest to Sima Yao on weekdays. It can be said that he has the opportunity and the ability to observe some of Sima Yao's behaviors at close range.
He had no doubt that Sima Yao had such intention to regain the imperial power by provoking conflicts between the aristocratic families.
"Now that His Majesty's intention has been made clear, Yue Zhi, what do you think we should do?" Fan Ning still wanted to do something seriously, so during the banquet, he was the one asking questions, unlike Wang Guobao.
, as if he doesn’t care much about anything.
Just focus on eating and drinking.
"I think we can divide our forces and advance."
"What's the explanation for this?"
"We might as well keep an eye on one person, such as Brother National Treasure. Needless to say, we must keep an eye on the internal affairs of the Xie family."
"Although Brother Guobao has always been at odds with his wife, after all, she is the legitimate daughter of the Xie family, so it is easier to find out information."
"I think Brother Guobao might as well put aside the past grudges and make more use of this relationship. It would be a waste to waste it." Yuan Yuezhi persuaded him kindly, and was even willing to act as the peacemaker between Wang Guobao and his wife, because he saw that it was difficult to fight within the Xie family.
enter.
It is rare for Wang Guobao to have such convenient conditions.
However, how could Guo Bao listen to his persuasion? Before he finished speaking, Guo Bao shook his head and refused, with a look uglier than an iron pot.
"Yue Zhi, don't even think about the shrew!"
"Not to mention her, it's my father-in-law, Xie An, the one you most want to get close to. He has already made it very clear that I, Wang Guobao, will not be allowed to enter his house."
"As for that fierce woman, ever since she entered my house, even though she is in the Cao camp and her heart is in the Han Dynasty, she doesn't know what I, the Wang family of Taiyuan, have to do with her. She has never looked down on me and been full of complaints."
"It's simply impossible to expect her to inquire about the Xie family."
Yuan Yuezhi was stunned. He really didn't expect that the relationship between Wang Guobao and Xie An would be so bad.
It is true that Xie An has many children and even more son-in-laws, but on the surface, Wang Guobao can be regarded as the most popular among the many sons-in-law.
But he didn't expect that he would be so disgusted by Xie An.
I have to say, Lao Xie...
Still very discerning.
If it weren't for the fact that they, the middle-class families, could not compete with Wang Xie and other big families, Yuan Yuezhi would really not want to deal with Wang Guobao.
This person is really unbearable.
Seeing his face, you would never imagine that his temperament is so despicable.
Now, among the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, the one who has the biggest headache for Wang Guobao is probably Xie An!
If marriages between aristocratic families had not been decided several years or even ten years ago, Xie An would never have found such a son-in-law for his daughter.
At first, the courtiers thought that Lao Xie was a lucky man. His son-in-law came from a wealthy family, had good looks, and had everything he wanted.
Later, Wang Guobao also began to join the government and participate in politics, and many people began to sympathize with Xie An.
This national treasure brother!
He lost his good looks and turned out to be a real evil person!
"Even if you can't get any information from Madam, you will always hate the Xie family the most among the people here."
"Absolutely!"
"Of course it can only be me!"
"If I had a pair of wolf teeth, I would definitely bite that old man Xie An to pieces!" Although Wang Guobao had bad teeth, he still grinded his teeth vigorously, showing his good appetite.
"now it's right."
"Keep an eye on Xie An, Xie Xuan, you can always do this!" Yuan Yuezhi put forward the minimum request to Wang Guobao, but Guobao had no choice but to agree.
Although he has always felt that uprooting a family like the Xie family is the best option, and there is no need to save face for them.
"As for me, I will always pay attention to His Majesty's actions." Yuan Yuezhi also arranged a task for himself, but the national treasure did not agree with it: "Instead of this arrangement, why don't we make a change? Princess Langya is my cousin, so you guys too
all know."
"Wouldn't it be better for me to keep an eye on every move of His Majesty and King Langya?"
"I think the affairs of the Xie family should be left to Brother Yue to keep an eye on. Brother Yue has the highest official position among us. Old man Xie An, I have to give you some face."
"Look at me, let alone coming to the door, I will be beaten away by Xie An before I reach the door of Xie's house. It is impossible to get close to him." Wang Guobao spread his hands and made a gesture like breaking a can.
Hahaha, I am so bad.
Do you have any ideas?
Of course not!
"Alright!" Yuan Yuezhi gritted his teeth and agreed. The feeling was really painful. Wang Guobao laughed and said nothing more.
hehe……
Do you think I, Wang Guobao, are stupid?
No one wants to mess with Xie An’s stubbornness, so he just wants to leave it to me. What a beautiful idea!
In terms of selfishness and self-interest, Fan Ning, Yuan Yue and others are not worthy of carrying shoes for national treasures.
"So is there anyone left?" Fan Ning felt that everyone else had made arrangements and it was impossible for him to be alone.
Yuan Yuezhi sighed and said helplessly: "Ayu, you should be in charge of Wang Zhiyuan's side!"
What?
Wang Zhiyuan?
This... relationship is a bit far apart!
For Fan Ning, guarding Wang Mi is not a particularly difficult and difficult task, but he and Wang Mi have not had any friendship in the past.
How to establish contact and then find out information is really difficult.
