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

Chapter 3837 106. The best doctor heals the country (The old prime minister is not a good leader, he uses tea to describe people and resolve his own dilemma)

"Haha~ Imperial Physician Yu, what you said is too much~ As an imperial physician, as long as you can treat patients and see a doctor, you will have a meal. You know... governing a country and governing people are two different things. It's easy to talk without any pain. You are not in my position, so you naturally have no right to criticize me! Is it important whether I am happy or not? What's important is the Quan family..."

At this time, the old prime minister had fallen into Yuhua's language trap. He began to care about the overall situation that Yuhua talked about. In order not to make himself appear so down and out and lowly, he began to raise his own value in words, pretending to be always considering the country, in order to somewhat restore some of his dignity.

However, when he was halfway through saying this, even he himself couldn't continue to explain it.

Perhaps, when the old prime minister first entered the officialdom, he also had a sincere heart and believed in the official motto of "worrying about the world before worrying about yourself, and being happy after the world is happy about yourself."

However, after every torture and experience since he entered the officialdom, he found that his heart had changed. He gradually changed from paying attention to the world to paying attention to himself, from working for the benefit of the world to lining his own pockets and only caring about his own enjoyment...

So, when he was halfway through his high-pitched speech, his words became choked and stuck in his throat and he could no longer spit them out.

"What happened to the Quan family?"

Yuhua saw the other party's embarrassment and hesitation. After all, his conscience began to awaken slowly. The past that had once lost his conscience made him cautious and his words vague.

"The Quan Clan... for the sake of the people of the Quan Clan..."

At this moment, the old prime minister sighed softly. He knew that he had no confidence to say this, but for the sake of face, he still said it.

"Prime Minister, those who really care about the people don't always say what they want to say, but keep it in mind and put it into practice. Although officials have two mouths, one to the superior and the other to the subordinate, the heart of an official should be to be accountable to both the superior and the subordinate. Only by winning the hearts of the people and building a family for the world, instead of tearing down the big family to enrich the small family, if everyone is like this, each with their own ulterior motives and selfishness, then this family... is bound to fall apart and fall apart."

Yuhua spoke with a melancholy look on his face. He seldom discussed the ways of governing a country with others. After all, those corrupt officials in the past had already died before he could even talk about topics at this level.

And he didn't know what happened recently. Maybe it was because he met a worthy opponent, a master with stable emotions. After playing chess again and again, he found that the other party's emotions were not so easy to control, and he talked about this topic with the other party unconsciously.

"Haha~ Yes, it's easy to say, but it may not be so easy to implement it. I've done everything I can to sit in this position. If I'm judged, even if I go to hell, I'll have a good fight with the King of Hell. Why should I bear the sins of an era and the faults of a race alone? Who doesn't want to be a clean person, do things in a down-to-earth manner, be humble and polite to teachers and elders, be honest and loyal to the king, and be open and honest to the people, but... will the Quan family give me such an opportunity? Many times, I have been indecisive and have a guilty conscience, but do I have to choose? In my position, there are too many things that I can't help, too many things that are beyond my control... Haha~ Just like this tea, boiling hot, cold tea has no taste, only the tea tastes best with warm water, and it is the temperature that makes me the most tired..." At this point, the old prime minister laughed again and again. He sighed and roared, and actually raised his hand to ask Yuhua to pour a cup of tea. While raising his hand, he sighed-

"Which official in the court doesn't have to endure the pain of a long stew? Even though we are crying our hearts out and being coaxed by the environment around us, we still have to find ways to release our energy to nourish others. Others say that we officials are pretentious and hypocritical. Haha~ Don't we know how we are viewed by the common people?"

When he heard this, Yuhua pricked up his ears unconsciously and listened attentively.

"Ordinary people don't understand tea, and they say tea is far inferior to water. It tastes sweet and bitter, and they drink it obediently, just like they are people. They like to communicate directly and transparently. They say one is one and two is two. However, many things in the officialdom are ambiguous, and there is no black and white boundary. What do you want me to say? The only way to suppress public opinion is to pretend."

As he spoke, the old prime minister raised his hand and motioned for Yuhua to taste the tea. Yuhua was actually led by the other party and without thinking, he just raised his cup to taste the tea.

Seeing the other party finish a cup of tea with an unsatisfied expression on his face, the old prime minister knew that the other party was not interested in tea, but in his remarks.

"I heard that Doctor Yu is also an expert at tasting tea, right?"

"I am a fan of Heytea, but due to my busy work schedule, I don't have the time to enjoy this Gongfu tea. The good tea leaves are just soaked in the teapot and I drink them casually. It's really a waste. It's not as sweet as this."

Yuhua is also an honest person, and he shared his experience of tea tasting.

"Physical fatigue is far less than mental fatigue. Even though we have time to relax and drink tea, in fact... only we ourselves know how tired our brains are every day. We must learn to hide things from our subordinates and flatter our superiors. The master knows our methods, but what can he do? He said that we are old foxes, playing tricks on him, deceiving the superiors and hiding the truth from the subordinates... Hehe~ If we can't deceive the superiors and hide the truth from the subordinates, then what are we officials for? Isn't our function to buffer the contradictions between the master and the people? Those officials who deceived the superiors and concealed the truth just did too much and were too unskillful, which disgusted both the superiors and the subordinates and failed to play the role of lubricating the relationship between the monarch and the ministers. , so he was brought to public trial, while the truly smart ones would rise step by step and deal with more difficult interpersonal relationships... His Majesty often said that I was this century-old old tea, which was clogging my throat when I drank it, and was not as comfortable as the new tea, but it just happened that the knots in his body could only be solved by this old tea... I guess that we old ministers are like this in the eyes of the lord, who can't get rid of us but can't leave us. He wants to replace us with new people, but he feels that the time is not right yet. He is afraid that if he is really promoted, it will only cause trouble for himself. However, all the old ministers have become cunning and are not as easy to control as before. They are uncomfortable to use, and if we don't use them, there will be no more suitable weapons..."

As he said this, the old prime minister laughed bitterly again, raised his head, and drank the tea in one gulp.

"Do you think I'm really afraid of death? We're not afraid! But even if we die... I'm afraid there won't be a good ending! After all, the ghost clan is also in the hands of the Quan clan... Let's not talk about others, just take His Majesty the Dragon Emperor as an example, he is a great hero of the Quan clan! What will be his ending? Even if he is buried, as long as the power is used, won't he be dug out and used again?"

Speaking of this, Yuhua's eyes trembled. At this moment, he was speechless...
