Chapter 607 The anger of the old man
"Xiaotian, do you know the meaning of rotten trees that will be destroyed by the wind in the forest?" The old man smiled and asked Wu Potian a question.
"Grandpa's words mean the best trees are always easily blown down by the wind." Before Wu Potian finished explaining the meaning of this sentence, he suddenly understood the purpose of the old man saying this. He asked the old man happily: "Grandpa, are you worried that our family tree will attract wind and will be boycotted by some families, so he deliberately supports some fake hostile families and let them constantly suppress our family in order to achieve the goal of paralyzing others."
When the old man heard Wu Potian's answer, he immediately showed a look of praise in his eyes and replied with a smile: "You can teach me, but Xiaotian, you can guess your grandfather's purpose just by using my grandfather's words. Grandpa is very pleased. Even your father and your two uncles are not as good as you."
Wu Potian didn't expect that he was really guessed. If this is the case, the Guo family is not their enemy, but their invisible ally. He heard the old man's praise and quickly replied modestly: "Grandpa, it's not my father, my second uncle and third uncle. After all, they have fought with the Guo family so many times over the years, and they have completely regarded the Guo family as their mortal enemy. Although I also regard the Guo family as an enemy, I have not returned to the family for a long time, so it is naturally easy to turn around."
The old man originally wanted to wait to tell the truth about this incident in the future, but Wu Potian's performance changed his mind. When he heard Wu Potian's answer, he introduced to Wu Potian affectionately: "Xiao Tian's matter starts with the fact that Xiao Jun was plotted against him. Because you were taken away by someone, the Wu family was only Xiao Jun. Although Xiao Jun was a wild person at that time, he still accepted the arrangements of the family and started working. As a result, some people did not want to see our Wu family keeping military power like now, so they arranged a conspiracy against Xiao Jun, which completely lost the opportunity to develop in the army."
"As the saying goes, wealth is not only for three generations, but whether a big family can continue forever must have an excellent helmman. Because of Xiaojun's affairs, our Wu family faces a situation of being incompetent. If one day your father and I are gone, our Wu family may become the fat on the chopping board and be slaughtered. In order to avoid such a thing, I began to secretly support some families, and the Guo family is one of the families I support."
When Wu Potian heard the old man’s introduction, he understood the old man’s good intentions. However, he had a question in his heart, which made him very puzzled. He asked curiously: “Grandpa, I heard from my dad that the old man of the Guo family is not very good, and you almost shot him back then. Is such a person worthy of our trust?
The grandson's wisdom made the old man very happy. At this time, he no longer concealed Wu Potian and introduced cordially: "Xiaotian, you are right. I almost shot Guo Jinkang back then, but outsiders only knew one thing, but they didn't know the other. In the eyes of outsiders, our Wu family and the Guo family were incompatible, but not many people knew that our two families were actually related, and I saved Guo Jinkang's life. The reason why I wanted to kill him was mainly because in that era, he had some unscrupulous means for progress."
The information released by the old man "relative relationship" made Wu Potian very shocked. He did not expect that the number one enemy in his mind was not only a hidden ally of the Wu family, but also a relative of the Wu family. He thought carefully in his mind for a long time and said to the old man: "Grandpa, I finally understand your layout, because our Wu family controls the seventh floor of military power, which is equivalent to becoming a force that restricts those leaders in disguise, and at the same time, they also become their number one target of defense. Because of this reason, my grandfather even became the prime minister and retreated. At the same time, some officials of our family who are vassalized will be suppressed."
"So grandpa, you deliberately find some families that are in a hostile relationship with us in the eyes of outsiders, so that these Yubu will not be suppressed. The reason why you let the Guo family take the lead and oppose me to enter the official career is because you know very well that because of my identity, I may never develop into the official career. However, you are worried that after I enter the army, I will suffer the same experience as Xiaojun, so that I planned this good show of building a plank road and secretly traveling to Chen Cang."
Wu Potian's analysis also made the old man who was always as stable as Mount Tai when encountering things, and he also showed a shocking expression. He did not expect that Wu Potian would analyze his plan so thoroughly. You must know that what he told the three children was much more than what he told his grandson. Not only did his three children not see through his plan, but instead felt that he was raising a tiger for trouble. Only the grandson could make such an accurate and thorough analysis based on these superficial situations, which undoubtedly made him very happy.
"Xiaotian, based on what I said, you can analyze my grandfather's plan roughly. Grandpa is very pleased. You guessed that the Guo family and some families that are targeting us on the surface are all families that Grandpa has been secretly supporting over the years. The purpose is to prevent our family's influence in the local area from being weakened and find a new path from the difficulties of many parties."
"When the old political commissar was there, because even if some people were ambitious, they dared not reveal it. In the end, with the help of the old political commissar, we successfully grasped 90% of the military power in China. However, after the old political commissar left, those who had ambitions could not sit still. Not only were they targeting our Wu family everywhere, but they also tried to plunder the military power held by our Wu family."
"Under such circumstances, in order to live up to the old political commissar's trust in me and to maintain the stability and unity of the country, I finally had to compromise with them and hand over some of the military power and military power. I originally thought that my regression could make these people stop at the right time. As a result, my idea was not successful, but instead made them think that our Wu family was weak and bullied, and became even more aggressive. In order to avoid our Wu family always holding military power, I secretly planned a conspiracy against the small army, trying to fundamentally cut off the future of our Wu family."
