Chapter 555 Can Save 20 Years of Struggle
"Can you say that again!"

"I said, I don't agree."

"Do you know what you're talking about?" Li Linfu tightly grasped the edge of the bed with his skinny five fingers.Because of excitement, his eyes almost popped out of their sockets.

After two years of illness, he was already frighteningly thin.Now if you make this gesture again, it will be like a skeleton crawling out of hell, which is even more frightening.

Mr. Da Lang subconsciously stood in front of Mu Jiaojiao.

Mu Jiaojiao pulled the child aside again, and continued: "I said it, but I don't agree."

"Ahem, cough, you don't agree...don't agree...cough cough cough..." Li Linfu suddenly laughed.Laughing and coughing at the same time, it looked extremely painful, and the laughter became very strange because of the thick phlegm. It didn't sound like a laugh, but it sounded like some kind of beast in the deep mountains at midnight. Jie Jie's laughter was creepy.

Mr. Da Lang hastily held Mu Jiaojiao's hand.

Mu Jiaojiao let his son hold it this time, and continued to quietly look at the old man in front of him who was about to roll over because of excitement: "Yes, I don't agree."

"Do you know what your decision means? Do you know how Cui Liu will feel in his heart when he knows that you have refused? And your son... This is your Da Langjun, right? Now he may still I don't understand, but after ten years, when he realizes what he has missed because of your relationship, aren't you afraid that he will hate you for the rest of his life?" Li Linfu said with a grin, "Men have a heart to climb to the top Cui Liu must be no exception. However, he has been in the officialdom for 20 years, and he has only been an official of the third rank so far. He is not the son of the Cui family, and he has an elder brother who works in Chang'an, Cui It is impossible for the family to devote all their resources to help him fight for greater rights and interests. He must have been troubled by not being promoted twice in a row, right? But he has no choice, so he can only fight well with the Jiedushi in various places Make friends and ask them to recommend on their behalf. But what is the use of those Jiedu envoys? They are just warriors, how many of them can get the mind of a saint? But I can... ahem, I can!"

"Now you have offended the Yang family. When I die, Younger Yang Zhao will definitely succeed me as Prime Minister. And when he takes over, Cui Liu will never be able to climb up again. Do you think he will be willing? And as long as he After taking over the power in my hands, he will be able to rise to the top immediately! Let alone a mere Jiedu envoy, it doesn't matter if he takes all the Jiedu envoys in Monan Mobei! And you want to refuse such an opportunity?"

"Yes, I refuse." Mu Jiaojiao nodded.

"You..." Li Linfu's skinny five fingers almost scratched the edge of the huanghuali bed, inserting his fingers into it.

"Didn't I make it clear enough? As long as you nod your head, everything before me will be yours. You can bring down Yang Zhao, destroy Anlu Mountain, and then the family will dominate, and no one can stop you Footsteps! The sage is already confused now. With the ingenuity and wisdom of your husband and wife, it is easy to fool him. At that time, not to mention Chang'an City, even the entire New Tang Dynasty will be under your control. And to get all of this The price is to save my family's life!"

The corners of Mu Jiaojiao's lips tugged lightly, and a sneer appeared on his face.

She patted Mr. Da Lang on the shoulder: "Da Lang, come and talk to him."

"Okay!" Mr. Da Lang nodded quickly, then raised his head and said, "You keep saying that you want to hand over all your power to my father, so let me ask you, how many years have those people under your command been with you?"

"At least four or five years, at most two to thirty years!" Li Linfu said proudly.

"Then there must be many first-rank, second-rank and third-rank officials among them!" Mr. Dalang asked again.

"That is inevitable." Li Linfu nodded.

"My father is only an official of the third rank now. Do you think that these people who have more qualifications than my father, are older than my father, and even have a higher official position than him, they may listen to my father. ?"

Li Linfu's eyes flashed. "I let them listen, they must listen! Otherwise, I will send someone to assist your father."

"That person must be your son." Dalang Jundao, "Besides, one is definitely not enough. Those people have been with you for these years, and they trust you, which is Li Linfu's signature. So, when you are alive, they will still feel that you are the son of Li Linfu. I respect you. After you die, my father must rely on your sons to make them surrender. And your sons... Maybe they will do a few practical things for my father in order to hide their strengths and bide their time. But what next? ? When they gain a firm foothold and are full-fledged, they will definitely instigate the people under them to rebel against my father. They are your old department, so naturally they will listen to the old master's words. At that time, my father will still be alone... No, maybe more than It's miserable being alone, he was abandoned by his own people! But your son returned to the top position after a period of dormancy, and regained the former glory of your Li family. It’s just a bridge built. When you cross the river, it will definitely be demolished!”

Li Linfu laughed out loud. "I didn't expect you to think so much at such a young age. You are right, there is such a possibility. But..." He turned to Mu Jiaojiao, "Madame Jin, you and Cui Liu are also You have climbed to this position from a small age, and you have dealt with eighty if not a hundred people in these years. Now, don’t you even have this confidence?”

"It's not that we don't have this self-confidence, we just can't trust you." Mu Jiaojiao said.

Li Linfu stared, and Mu Jiaojiao said, "It is said that things of a kind gather together and people are divided into groups. People who have been with you for so many years must not be good things. Of course my husband wants to continue to climb up, but he also He wholeheartedly wants to uphold justice and rectify the court. However, I believe that he has the ability to take his time. Sooner or later, he will be able to achieve this goal with his own ability. As for the group of monsters and monsters under your command... it is better for us to keep in touch less. "

"With this group of people, he can save at least 20 years of struggle!" Li Linfu yelled, "20 years! How many 20 years can a life have? If you are really capable, you can get rid of all these ghosts and snakes after the matter is done. Yes, I believe that with the abilities of your husband and wife, you can definitely do it. And as long as you save this 20 years, how many detours he can avoid, and how many more years your children can enjoy! Haven’t you calculated this account?”

"I'll forget it, it's not worth it." Mu Jiaojiao said.

Li Linfu was stunned. "20 years, isn't it worthwhile?"

"Yes, 20 years in exchange for a lifetime of self-condemnation, and a lifetime of being scolded for being a thief and father, is really not worth it." Mu Jiaojiao shook his head, then turned around, "Go find someone else, we won't do that. Dalang, we Walk."

Mr. Da Lang quickly followed.

Watching the two of them leave without hesitation, Li Linfu was so anxious that he fell off the couch in one fell swoop.

"Stop, stop!" He yelled desperately, crawling towards them with hands and feet.That appearance, like a huge spider, is very terrifying.
