National teacher, your empress is too sassy

Chapter 51 This bait is not enough
As the most respected old prince of the Gu family, he understands what Cheng Engong is afraid of better than anyone else.

He also knew that Cheng Engong's worries were necessary.

But for Dalin, he had to persuade Cheng Engong to make concessions.

Hearing Prince Rui's words, Cheng Engong's expression became more serious.

Indeed, the current Kyoto and the Empress cannot do without him and Prince Rui.

Moreover, the banditry in Hanzhou has reached the point where it has to be eliminated.

Now they must find a reliable and trustworthy person to go to Hanzhou to deal with Gu Cuishan and other bandits.

After hesitating for a long time, Cheng Engong finally made a concession.

"Okay! As His Majesty wishes, I will order An'er to secretly enter the palace to face the saint later."

Hearing this, both Gu Shu and Prince Rui let out a long sigh of relief.

Fortunately, Cheng Engong took care of the overall situation.

Otherwise, they really don't have the time to deal with the bandits in Hanzhou.

"Thank you, uncle!" Gu Shu thanked her sincerely.

"Your Majesty is serious. This is what Weichen and An'er should do as human ministers." Cheng Engong said solemnly.

As a minister, you should share your worries for the king, and do things for the king and the people.

"When my cousin solves the banditry in Hanzhou, I will personally hold a reception banquet for him!" Gu Shu solemnly promised.

When her cousin is triumphant, she will give him all the glory she can.

Hearing this, Cheng Engong smiled helplessly.

"Your Majesty is too polite."

"Okay, you two, uncle and nephew, stop talking politely." Prince Rui interrupted Gu Shu and Cheng Engong with a smile.

"Your Majesty, you have dealt with Mingtai Zhaoyi like that yesterday, I'm afraid it will make the Song family dissatisfied." Prince Rui smiled and said solemnly.

The Song family is different from the Wang and Zhao families. They have no military power, but they have the ability to respond to all civil servants.

If they play tricks on His Majesty, His Majesty may have a headache.

Gu Shu frowned slightly, and then said: "Soldiers come to block, water comes to cover, how can I be afraid of their Song family?"

"Speaking of Dalin, in addition to the Song family, there are also Qiao's, Bai's, and Su's famous restaurants!"

As far as she knew, the Qiao, Song, Bai, and Su families had always suppressed each other.

She didn't believe that the other families would watch the Song family run rampant in the court!
Not to mention the Bai and Su families, even the Qiao family, which is the female emperor's mother family, is enough for the Song family to weigh it.

Prince Rui was startled, then smiled and said: "Your Majesty is smarter!"

After finishing speaking, he changed the subject again and said, "However... Wei Chen wants you to start with Xu Shi and He Shi!"

The Song, Bai, Qiao, and Su families have always been hailed as the four most noble families in Dalin, while the Xu family and the He family are powerful, but they can only be ranked as second-rate families with the Wang and Zhao families.

He thought, as long as His Majesty throws enough bait, then Xu and He's family may not go all out to help His Majesty deal with the Song Clan.

"Oh?" Gu Shu raised her eyebrows, and soon her eyes lit up.

"Just as you said! As long as I promise to be the Duke of the country, the two of them will definitely be tempted!"

Although the entire Dalin Dynasty is going downhill, these big families are still fighting openly and secretly, trying to pull each other down from the altar.

Prince Rui's calculation made reasonable use of the ambitions of these great families.

"Your Majesty, this bait may not be enough." Prince Rui thought carefully for a while, then shook his head.

"Huh?" Gu Shu was dumbfounded.

Isn't the temptation of the position of Duke not enough?
