【422】Benefit to the world

Wen Baiyu quickly left to convey the court's wishes to the Jiulong Palace, but Li Muru was kept by Jiang Shuihan.

Li Muru bowed to the end and said respectfully: "I don't know what the hell is left by the Prime Minister alone?"

Jiang Shuihan gently put down the teacup and said calmly: "Master Li, do you think that if you shift all the responsibility to Li Daotian, you can get rid of the crime?"

"The people are afraid." Li Muru looked humble and could not have the slightest demeanor of being a great man.

Jiang Shuihan's eyes flashed. Facing this sinister villain, he thought of Li Daozong, who had not recovered from serious injury, and his murderous intent was uncontrollable, but for the sake of his plan, he had to make choices.

Jiang Shuihan smiled slightly and said in a deep voice: "You are a smart person. This time, Li Daotianyi fell, and the only person outside the Jiulong Palace can rely on is you. Li's position as deputy leader is naturally unwilling to take over, but I am afraid that the power of the Youlong Gang will be taken over by you, right?"

"I dare not, I dare not. But as long as I can serve the court, the people will work hard and die after death." Li Muru's clever change of topics, clearly showing weakness and showing his attitude towards cooperation, is undoubtedly a clever approach.

For the current court, Li Muru's move to frame Li Daotian is tantamount to making great contributions to the court and eliminating hidden dangers within the court in one fell swoop.

As long as Li Muru is controlled, there will naturally be a chess piece from the court within the Wulin Alliance. The previous period of control of the twelve Yuan Laohui and Fengyi Pavilion will never return. The status of the Wulin will be significantly lower than that of the imperial court and will be enfeoffed and supervised by the imperial court.

Li Muru did have a plan for a long time. He saw that the court would not give up his chess piece, and he would use this condition to let go of power in the Wulin Alliance.

In his opinion, Jiang Shuihan is smart, but she is still too young. She thinks she can control everything, but she doesn't know how to respect and do not understand the principle of raising a tiger as a disaster.

So he was betting that this time he took the risk to enter the prime minister's mansion, betting that the resources he had were more important than his life.

Obviously, he bet right.

Jiang Shuihan really had no intention of killing him.

Jiang Shuihan showed an indifferent expression, his eyes lowered, and said lightly: "Good statement. The court is at the time of employment, and Zheng Zhantang and others can be ranked as the "Martial Prime Minister", let alone the leader of the martial arts world..."

Li Muru was stunned. "The Prime Minister means..."

Jiang Shuihan yawned, fell sideways on the slum, signaling his maid to bring a cup of new tea, and said in a solemn voice: "I have had a long talk with Your Majesty recently, and I feel that the court must not control the world, and the position of the leader of the martial arts world must also be established in the future to control the world. The position of the leader of the martial arts world can be replaced by the position of "Martial Prime Minister" and coordinate the affairs of the world. Master Li, the road is long and arduous..."

Jiang Shuihan ended the conversation with a meaningful sentence.

Li Muru was like thunder, his expression was dazed, and his already vigorous ambition suddenly rose like flames. He replied with a wooden greeting, but Jiang Shuihan shouted as soon as he was about to leave the backyard: "Master Li, the matter of Li Mozhi must be handled properly."

Li Muru's body trembled, and he was sweating coldly for a moment.

Seeing Li Muru go away, Jiang Shuihan suddenly sat upright and threw the teacup in his hand on the table. His face was heavy. He waved his hand and removed all the guards and maids around him, and walked alone to the courtyard.

Ding, dang, dang.

An old gardener was carving a stone railing in the flower bed, as if no one was around. Even if Jiang Shuihan walked beside him, he did not stop the stone chisel in his hand.

Jiang Shuihan stood beside the old man, took a deep breath, bowed deeply, and said in a deep voice: "Teacher, as you told me, I have successfully contacted Li Muru, but my disciple made the decision without authorization and warned Li Muru."

The old man was nothing but Ji Guanglan, known as the old fox.

Ji Guanglan was dressed in a gray cloth and a sun hat, and carved a stubborn stone without raising his head. He heard this and said, "Don't tell me such a small matter in the future, you can do your own thing."

Jiang Shuihan bowed and wanted to speak several times, but he still endured it when he spoke.

Even though Ji Guanglan did not look back, Fang Buddha saw his expression. He put down the stone chisel in his hand, smiled and said, "Do you want to ask why the ungrateful wolf like Li Muru who cannot feed him? Right?"

"The teacher is wise." Jiang Shuihan did not deny it.

"Then can you tell me why I want to kill him?" Ji Guanglan asked.

Jiang Shuihan frowned and said, "For the sake of the world, for justice, and for friends... From that point of view, there seems to be a reason to kill him."

Ji Guanglan glanced at him and said lightly: "You have friends, justice, and martial arts... This is very good. But what about the court? What about the people? What about the world?"

Jiang Shuihan was even more confused. "Is it harmful to the world to kill him?"

"No, no, no." Ji Guanglan shook his head, "It is more beneficial to the world to keep him!"

Jiang Shuihan was silent.

Ji Guanglan sighed and patted Jiang Shuihan's shoulder and said, "When you reach your position, you should consider the direction of the problem. You cannot just start from the perspective of the rivers and lakes and friendship, but also consider the world, the court, and the people. Now, the major events in the world are to unify the whole country on the one hand, and the stability of the rivers and lakes on the other hand. From the second aspect, the control of the Wulin League should be put on the agenda as soon as possible, and Li Muru's position in the Wulin League is irreplaceable. We already have Ning Huiru. If we can control Li Muru to weaken the strength of the Wulin League, it will be a good thing to stabilize the world. Of course, controlling the strength of the Wulin League will have to wait until the Demon Sect is eliminated before it can be implemented. Li Muru is a good pawn."

"What if this piece is disobedient?" Jiang Shuihan asked.

Ji Guanglan bent down, sniffed the blooming flowers beside him, and said calmly: "Why can I only have one piece of chess when I play chess?"

Jiang Shuihan felt a chill in his heart, bowed deeply again, and was about to resign, he might as well hear Ji Guanglan's earnest consolation: "Shuihan, the reason why I chose you as my successor back then was that I value you know how to make a choice. If one day, the world needs you to make a correct choice between the court and the world, the people and good friends, I believe you know how to make a choice."

As soon as this sentence came out, Jiang Shuihan was stunned for a moment.

Trade-offs?

Friends, people, court, rivers and lakes...

Do you have to make a choice and make sacrifices?

Jiang Shuihan's limbs were numb and he didn't know how he left the yard and returned to the study.

Since ancient times, Confucianism has used literature to disrupt the law, while chivalrous people have violated the ban with martial arts.

Do you really want to be enemies of the entire martial arts world for the sake of the people of the world?

Jiang Shuihan was confused for a moment, and even his position became shaky...

Suddenly, Jiang Shuihan's mind lit up and a figure flashed.

If it was him...
