After I was reborn, I became Mrs. Chief Assistant

Chapter 394 Laughing

But the Li family...?
What does this have to do with the Li family?
The more he chatted with Yun Zhuo, the more Chu Huang realized that he couldn't keep up with Yun Zhuo's thoughts.

Xie Jie quickly took over Yun Zhuo's words: "It's getting worse. I heard that in June of the year, the youngest daughter of the Li family was given to the King of Nanyang County as a concubine by the stepmother."

"That's such a pity." Yun Zhuo sighed, then turned his head and explained to Chu Huang, "You don't know yet, the youngest daughter of the Li family and that Princess Duan are sisters born of the same mother, and they are also a beautiful embryo , was very close to my sister, and later lived in Prince Duan's Mansion for a while."

Chu Huang blinked, he didn't know the youngest daughter of the Li family, but he knew who the Nanyang County King was.He was born with fat head and big ears, bald head and small eyes. Not long ago, he fell in love with his third sister in Linque and wanted to snatch her away. Fortunately, the third sister was accompanied by family guards, so he didn't let him succeed.

Unexpectedly, Duan Wangfei's sister suffered such a catastrophe.

However, since the girl from the Li family has a deep relationship with Princess Duan, how could Prince Duan let them...?
Is Duan Wang really as serious about love and righteousness as the rumors say?
Yun Zhuo lowered her head and took a sip of her tea, her crow-feather-like eyelashes drooped slightly, covering up all her thoughts.Seeing that Chu Huang was out of his mind, she took another dose of strong medicine: "It's a coincidence that King Duan negotiated a business with people from Nanyang County. They had negotiated for a long time before, but they didn't talk about it because of the distribution of benefits. However, not long after the little girl from the Li family got married, the business was inexplicably concluded. I don't know if the little girl was thinking about her brother-in-law's deep affection for her sister, so she specially blew on the Nanyang County King's pillow. If so, it would really embarrass the little girl."

She put down the teacup, seemed to catch a glimpse of Chu Huang's expression, and smiled softly: "Of course, this is not a secret. If Mr. Chu is interested, you can turn around and ask someone to inquire about it."

Chu Huang's hand holding the teacup suddenly tightened.

He knew that since Yun Zhuo could say such a thing, then she must not have made up this matter randomly, and there might be something strange about it.

If things are true as Yun Zhuo said, then King Duan can be called ruthless and ungrateful, and even his wife's own sister can be pushed into the fire pit, which shows that this man's heart has no flesh.

But anyone with a three-point conscience can't do such a thing, right?
With such a person, how could the Chu family expect him to fulfill his promise after success and help the Chu family soar and become the number one family in Daye?I'm afraid that when the hegemony is accomplished, it's time to hide it.

His eyes flickered slightly: "There's no need to inquire, I believe that there is really no need for Mrs. Xie to lie about such a matter."

After all, even though such a matter is difficult to investigate, with the methods of the Chu family, at most it will take more effort.Yun Zhuo will not be ignorant of this truth.

Well, now we know that King Duan has a bad temper and is unscrupulous in dealing with people. He is not a good candidate for cooperation. This is one of them; If you reach out to touch it, I am afraid there is only one dead end, this is the second.

These two incidents almost completely blocked the possibility of cooperation between the Chu family and Pei Yan.

Chu Huang raised her eyes and asked her straight to the point: "If we agree to cooperate with Mrs. Xie, what benefits can Mrs. Xie promise to the Chu family?"

This must be asked first.It is best to write it down in black and white, so as not to get involved in the end.

Yun Zhuo thought for a while, but didn't speak.

Things have come to this point, Yun Zhuo's goal has actually been basically achieved - she never thought of persuading the Chu family to cooperate with her, but just wanted to destroy the cooperation between the Chu family and Pei Yan.

Even if they dare to claim the military power of Lishanguan, the Chu family's appetite is too big.She lowered her eyes and thought quietly.

But Xie Jie said at this time: "Cabinet minister, how are you?"

Chu Huang's hand holding the teacup suddenly trembled, and when he didn't pay attention, the teacup was knocked over, and the tea splashed out, wet his cheeks and clothes.

Several people sat opposite each other for a long time, and the window was supported by poles. Occasionally, the river breeze would blow in, and the tea was already completely cold.But because it was winter, Chu Huang was also wearing thick clothes, so there was nothing serious about it.It was just water stains on one face, and the cold touch made him feel as if he had just woken up from a dream.

He stared straight at Xie Jie: "Does Young Master Xie know what I'm talking about?"

The Chu family has gone through the two dynasties of the Ye Dynasty, and even though they were honored and favored, it was all a fluke.But if the Chu family can have a cabinet minister, it will be different.

Although it will not be able to fly to the sky from then on, it will still allow the Chu family to stabilize their foothold in the Ye Dynasty from then on, and it is not impossible to accumulate a lot of money in the future.

What's more, the Ye Dynasty now values ​​civility over military affairs. To be honest, a cabinet minister is worth more than military power.After all, if you have military power, you have to be checked and balanced by the Quartet, but if the official worships the cabinet, then you can only check and balance others.

However, there have been three generations of the old Chu family, and there has not been a seedling with such good luck in the three generations.

Chu Huang really woke up now, he waved his hand: "Is this too much?"

Yun Zhuo glanced at Xie Jie, but didn't make a sound to stop him.She thought that Xie Jie's ability to say such a thing must have his own considerations.But Yun Zhuo couldn't understand Chu Huang's reaction.

If you dare to take the military power of Lishanguan, you dare not take the position of cabinet minister?

It's not that Chu Huang didn't dare to ask for it, it's just that he knew how much his family had.Even if the position of cabinet minister was handed over to them, no one in their old Chu family could hold it.

Even the uncle couldn't keep it.

He heard from the boy who delivered the letter that the uncle is in the capital now, and he is so worried that he can't eat and sleep all day long. On the one hand, he is afraid that the emperor will burp his fart, and on the other hand, he is afraid that the emperor will drag on for a long time and refuse to give up his seat. No farts.

Even the Shangshu is like this. It is conceivable that if he is promoted to a cabinet minister, his already thinning hair will be even more difficult to keep.

"What's too much?" Yun Zhuo asked him, "Otherwise, you write a letter and discuss it with your family members. What exactly do you want? Of course, if you find it really embarrassing, we don't have to cooperate, right?"

Chu Huang took a closer look and felt that it made sense.But I don't know why, but I vaguely feel that if I don't cooperate, I will suffer a bit.

"I'll go back and think about it. When I have a clue later, I'll come to Mrs. Xie to discuss it. I wonder if it's possible?"

Yun Zhuo smiled and nodded, watching him leave, but turned around and found that Xie Jie's face was not very good-looking, he looked a little unhappy, she squeezed his hand: "What's wrong?"

Xie Jie's voice was flat, with forbearance and restraint: "You have been laughing at him for a long time."
