Don’t be too poisonous to the concubine of the Wu family who was born in Wu

Chapter 3831 100. The best doctor heals the country (The old prime minister who wakes up has a heart-to-heart talk with Yuhua)

The old prime minister was supported by his servants as he walked out of the room. A breeze happened to blow, ruffling the old prime minister's beard. The black and white beard fluttered in the air, coupled with his staggering steps and weak body...

At this moment, Yuhua couldn't help but sigh in his heart -

To be honest, he didn't like the old prime minister. He was cunning, scheming, and had too many conspiracies. But what did he get after scheming for his whole life?

His son died in the political arena in the fight for power, while his daughter was sent to various powerful and famous people to be used as a pawn to restrain power. Even if he is successful and has a high status now, what does it matter?
His descendants had already died. He had dedicated his entire life to the Quan family. In the end, his own children would become pawns of the Quan family. He just hoped that he would have a male heir to inherit his family business, but the result was...

Even such a small wish is impossible to realize.

Yuhua had heard in his early years that the Imperial Pharmacy had developed a drug that could change a child's gender long ago, and had successfully experimented with many cases.

In other words, the fact that his father still hasn't had a son was actually something that the Quan family had planned long ago.

But he was so foolish that he didn't know it. He thought that fate was unfair and still insisted on having a son.

Being in this position, Yuhua has long seen through the inherent indifference and darkness in the hearts of those high-ranking officials.

The Quan family was able to give the old prime minister his current status, and in the future they could also slowly divide his family power and swallow up all his current property.

Whether his family's power and status can be retained depends on the mood of the Dragon King and the meaning of their family's existence.

The old prime minister understood this very well, and he was extremely distressed by it.

People's obsession of wanting to get something is seen as a weak spot that can be conquered by the Quan clan. The more he wants to get it, the more the Quan clan refuses to give it to him. No matter how hard he struggles and works, and how he helps the Quan clan to maintain its power time and time again, he is only given a thought, a thought that will never let him get it easily.

To put it bluntly, this old prime minister is just a pitiful man. He has done so much for the Quan family, and all he wants is to protect his family, or even... continue the offspring of his family.

However, the higher the position and the more powerful one is, the more helpless one is.

Looking at the standing figure, the old prime minister no longer had the vigor and vitality he once had. There were signs of haggardness and fatigue on his body. His body was hunched under the sunlight, and his energy seemed to be drained away, making him look old and frail.

"Doctor Yu... I know you are a famous doctor in the Quan family. I also know that you are the only one in the Quan family who can read a woman's belly from a distance. I... I am old, and my health is getting worse every year. To be honest, I really care about whether the baby in Madam Hongmei's belly is a boy or a girl, so..."

Just as Yuhua was watching the old prime minister absorbed in his thoughts, the old prime minister couldn't help but sigh, still thinking about Hongmei's stomach. However, this time when he woke up, the way he spoke was much more tactful and respectful than before.

If he was as aggressive and unreasonable as before, Yuhua might think that this person was so bad that he was hopeless and would not bother to pay any attention to him.

But now, the other party's attitude suddenly became so good, and his words revealed a weak and pitiful atmosphere. I guess no one would have the heart to do anything bad to him again.

"Well... Old Prime Minister... I think that a child is your blessing. No matter whether it is a boy or a girl, as long as they can be by your side and call you father, don't you feel happy?"

"Happy... hehe... of course I'm happy... but... the happier I am... the better he is at raising me, and the more I see his future and prospects, but I can't do anything about it... do you know how this feels?"

"I... I'm not a parent... I really can't empathize with your situation, old prime minister. However... as a doctor, I would like to advise you to be more open-minded about everything. Since some things cannot be forced, just let them take their course. After all, there are too many things in this world that go against your wishes, and not everything will go as you wish... so..."

"Hahaha~ Doctor~ You really are a doctor... Although your words of advice do make sense, but... hehe~ You are not qualified to let things take their own course in many things... People will only understand the truth when they reach a certain age, and those who can say "let things take their own course" are the ones who truly live wisely and have the confidence... And many people are not qualified to say "let things take their own course."

Hearing this, Yuhua was stunned. He knew the same feeling.

Since Zida came to the Quan clan, he has understood this principle very thoroughly. How could he have the right to choose?

It seems that, whether it is myself or the old prime minister, although we have different statuses and situations, our troubles are extremely similar.

“Why can’t we just let nature take its course?”

Yuhua couldn't help but blurt out this question, and perhaps he himself didn't even realize how he said this question.

Rather than asking this question to others, Yuhua is asking it more from his own heart.

"Human! To truly be able to let nature take its course is to have no obsessions in your heart and no worries in your chest. As long as you still have a trace of obsession, being unable to let go is the norm in life, isn't it? In this ups and downs of depression, time flies by, and you don't know whether your choices are right or wrong. In the purgatory of the Quan clan, you don't have time to think at all, because you are surrounded by enemies, hiding in the dark and showing them in the open. Every time you make a move, you must consider the overall situation and the future. You cannot regret it. No matter what the result is, you have to pay the corresponding price. In the world of power struggles, there is never a right or wrong, only winning or losing is the kingly way..."

At this moment, the old prime minister did not seem to regard Yuhua as a doctor, but as a confidant. Perhaps it was his physical weakness that caused his temporary inner fragility, or perhaps it was the repeated setbacks in his pursuit of having a child that made him extremely painful. Finally, at this moment, he took off his strong disguise and spoke his true feelings.

"But... who can always be the winner in the game? We are all just pawns of power. Black or white, there is no good or bad. Who can win beautifully after a game does not depend on how strong one side is, but on the mood of the dealer... So, at this age, I have already seen the situation clearly. When you are a pawn, you cannot do whatever you want. Only the dealer has this right..."
