Daming: Grandpa Emperor, please get up and sit on my throne!

After a long and eloquent speech.

Fan Songde changed the image of a "good emperor who loves his country and his people" and distorted it into the image of a "big idiot who refuses to make money."

As the saying goes.

Each monkey has a different way of tying it.

Under normal circumstances, one's first reaction to every incident he listed would be: "This emperor is truly a good emperor. Our Ming Dynasty is blessed, and so are the people."

But one man's meat may be another man's poison.

For the Huaixi nobles, this was a very bad thing! Fan Songde's evaluation of Zhu Yunhuan was just right for them! ——Zhang Yi, Cao Xing, and Zhu Shou naturally agreed with this.

Before, these things happened one by one.

Occasionally, they would feel dissatisfied or unhappy, but Zhu Yunhuan would quickly divert their attention and suppress it.

But when many things are strung together.

How could Zhang Yi, Cao Xing and Zhu Shou not feel unhappy if they followed Fan Songde's line of thought?

As Fan Songde's voice fell.

The entire room suddenly became extremely solemn and silent. There was no more clinking of glasses, no more laughter, and Zhang Yi and the other two looked like they were lost in thought, with gloomy faces.

Fan Songde and Zhou Lixuan exchanged glances, carefully observing the expressions of Zhang Yi and the other two. Their minds came to a conclusion: "It seems that the master's thinking and speculation in Peking is indeed correct!"

There was silence for a few breaths.

Zhou Lixuan collected his thoughts and deliberately took a breath, breaking the silence: "Hiss...what's wrong with you brothers? You were drinking and having a great time just now."

Zhang Yi, Cao Xing and Zhu Shou, who had been silent, were startled.

Only then did he realize that he had been immersed in anger for quite some time. He quickly suppressed the solemnity in his heart and forced a stiff smile on his face.

Huaiyuan Marquis Cao Xing raised his eyebrows.

His eyes flickered with meaning as he spoke, "Brother Fan, Brother Zhou, I usually thought you were just good at drinking, but I never thought... you also have quite a good understanding of the court officials. You can actually see so clearly."

While talking.

His eyes also wandered over Zhou Lixuan and Fan Songde's faces, revealing a hint of strong interest.

Just now, Fan Songde and Zhou Lixuan were just trying to remind them constantly.

From the perspective of Cao Xing and the other three, they felt as if they had been awakened from a dream. They felt as if they had been trapped in a comfortable and peaceful state of half-sleep and half-wakefulness. If they had not "accidentally" run into these two drinking buddies with whom they had competed with several times today, and if they had not "inadvertently" mentioned it to them, it would be hard to say when they would wake up!

It’s because I thought so in my heart.

That's why I became interested in Fan Songde and Zhou Lixuan. I think they are pretty good. Even if they are unintentional, maybe... they can be used for my own benefit!

Cao Xing developed a so-called "love for talent" towards Zhou Lixuan and Fan Songde, but he didn't know... a good hunter often appears as a prey.

One of the purposes of Zhou Lixuan and Fan Songde was to instigate and remind.

One of their goals is to gain the trust of Zhang Yi, Cao Xing and Zhu Shou, and even to infiltrate their small group!

Just as a drinking buddy, I pretended to be casual and put some pressure on them.

This effect... is not as good as blending in and stirring up trouble between the Huaixi nobles and the little emperor as one of their own.

This was also instructed by Peking.

Seeing Cao Xing's eyes.

Zhou Lixuan and Fan Songde both thought to themselves, "It's safe!"

Every word they said before was to please the emperor. On the surface, they were analyzing the actions and intentions of the young emperor, but in fact they had already begun to look at the problem from the perspective of the Huaixi nobles as a "counselor".
