Chapter 1453: Boiled frogs in warm water
The meaning of what Empress Xia said was already clear enough. Liu Jin was truly the confidant of Empress Xia! The most important thing is that Empress Xia did not say praise casually, but gave him real benefits.
Liu Jin naturally agreed happily and said quickly: "Don't worry, I will definitely choose a few smart people to serve the prince well."
As he said that, he looked at Zhu Zaiyao carefully. To some extent, Liu Jin has been in this Forbidden City with complex human hearts for a long time. He has never seen any form of people. It can be said that he knows the people's hearts the most. Although Empress Xia has made the decision, His Royal Highness of the Crown Prince has grown older and has begun to have his own ideas. He sent people to serve him for no reason, and may even replace the old man from the past. If His Royal Highness of the Crown Prince is not satisfied, it will not be a good thing.
But Zhu Zaiyao looked smiling, as if he didn't care about it and had no objection.
Liu Jin smiled and knew that this was done, so he naturally thanked him again!
All the things he said were said. Ye Chunqiu saw that it was getting late. As a foreign minister, staying in the harem for a long time was not a good thing, so he stood up and said goodbye.
"Uncle Emperor." Ye Chunqiu turned around and was about to leave, but Zhu Zaiyao suddenly called him behind him.
Ye Chunqiu turned around, but changed his usual grim appearance and looked at Zhu Zaiyao with gentle eyes.
Zhu Zaiyao smiled happily and said, "Uncle, be careful."
"Yes." Ye Chunqiu nodded to him and said, "Yes, Your Highness the Crown Prince must also study hard."
Zhu Zaiyao seemed to have thought about something and said, "What I learned today is the Book of Filial Piety. I received it from my parents and dare not hurt it. It is the beginning of filial piety. I have established myself and practiced my own way, made famous in future generations, so as to show my parents, and the end of filial piety. This is what I learned today."
Ye Chunqiu couldn't help but smile: "Your Highness the Crown Prince is so smart."
Zhu Zaiyao said: "I will be the same person as the emperor in the future."
Ye Chunqiu smiled and said, "Your Highness is the prince. In the future, you will be the emperor. What you need to learn is the art of emperors, not the little tricks of the ministers."
Zhu Zaiyao nodded vigorously and said, "I understand."
Watching Ye Chunqiu leave, Zhu Zaiyao fell into silence. Queen Xia called him twice, but still couldn't hear him. After finally coming back to his senses, Zhu Zaiyao said: "Mother, the emperor's uncle, all the masters he saw are great."
"Yes." The matter was finally done, and Empress Xia's heart was naturally much lighter at this time, and she smiled and said, "It's really hard to meet such a person in this world."
Zhu Zaiyao nodded, with indescribable firmness in his eyes!

As soon as Ye Chunqiu arrived at the Meridian Gate, someone chased him and said, "Duke Zhenguo, Duke Li asks you to go to the cabinet to speak for a while."
Ye Chunqiu was not surprised. He knew that after these two incidents, Li Dongyang would definitely not miss the opportunity to get close to him.
So he turned to the cabinet and arrived at the cabinet. He happened to pass by Wang Hua's public room. Wang Hua saw his figure along the curtain and called out, "What's wrong with Chunqiu?"
Ye Chunqiu walked in slowly, bowed to Wang Hua, and explained his purpose.
Wang Hua smiled and looked at Ye Chunqiu deeply and said, "Mr. Li asked you to go, so go quickly. Speaking of which, you should have a good life, thank you Mr. Li."
Thank you, of course, is Qiqige's business. Li Dongyang did give Ye Chunqiu a great success this time, but Wang Hua said it completely differently. This at least proves that this Lord Taishan has accepted Qiqige's existence.
Ye Chunqiu nodded and responded.
Wang Hua picked up the teacup, took a sip of the tea, and then smiled and continued, "Don't be so restrained, haha, in fact, although I have been a magnanimous master over the years, I have not made much achievements. The only thing I am proud of is that I have you as my son. Spring and Autumn, I have always treated you as my son. Just understand this."
Since becoming a disciple, how could Ye Chunqiu not understand Wang Hua’s true feelings for him? He hurriedly said, “In a few days, let Qiqige kowtow to his mentor.”
Mount Tai has become a mentor, and the wonderful use lies in one's heart.
Wang Huaheshou said, "Go, go, don't let Mr. Li wait for a long time."
Ye Chunqiu said goodbye to Wang Hua humbly and just arrived at Li Dongyang's public housing.
Li Dongyang was also drinking tea, and Ye Chunqiu's tea had already been prepared. He warmly greeted Ye Chunqiu and sat down, and said, "Chunqiu, I have something to ask you."
The status of the two is not very different, but one is older and the other is young. As a late-born junior, Ye Chunqiu cannot afford to ask for advice.
Ye Chunqiu hurriedly said: "Mr. Li has been defeated by Chunqiu."
Li Dongyang shook his head and said, "My words are from the bottom of my heart, so I won't hide them from you. You and I are both smart people, so don't be too vague. Open the skylight and say something bright. Now King Xing Juefeng has made a good start, but... Have you ever thought about what I should do next?"
Ye Chunqiu smiled and said, "Does Mr. Li want to do big things?"
Li Dongyang stared at Ye Chunqiu, but was also shocked by Ye Chunqiu's words!
Doing big things? The metaphor is appropriate, but for him, the auxiliary Grand Secretary, this description is not very appropriate. But if you think about it carefully, isn’t what you want to do the big things?
Li Dongyang did not hide it. As he said just now, Ye Chunqiu is a smart person, and he is also a smart person. If he fought too many puzzles, the mutual integrity between the two will be greatly reduced!
So Li Dongyang said: "Yes, I plan to recommend it, but I am afraid of the rebound of the royal family. I am thinking of a good solution. Today I have seen the methods of Zhenguo Duke, and I have just asked you for advice. With Zhenguo Duke's talent, I have some insights."
If Ye Chunqiu had known that he would be like this, the old god said: "Actually, if the royal family suffers such a loss, they will definitely rebound. However, in my opinion, Mr. Li acts with far-sightedness and will definitely not cut the mess quickly. He will definitely try it slowly and boil the frogs in warm water."
In fact, Ye Chunqiu knew very well that Li Dongyang was asking for advice, but in fact he was taking the exam.
He even believed that Li Dongyang had a plan in his mind, but he just wanted to try Ye Chunqiu's talent in this area.
When Ye Chunqiu talked about boiling frogs in warm water, Li Dongyang nodded slightly. Obviously, this was Li Dongyang's plan.
Ye Chunqiu said again: "So, everything can only be done step by step, neither fast nor slow. This step is naturally to create some momentum. Of course, this huge momentum cannot be done by Mr. Li in person, because the big tree attracts wind. Once the royal family finds the target of rebound and concentrates on dealing with Mr. Li, it will be very bad. The public opinion and the clear discussions of the Shilin first have to be brought up first, creating a trend of rats crossing the street. "
