Zhu Huayun also felt the meaning of Shang Han and Tang's words.
The man named Chu was obviously no higher than them, but he dominated them because of his good relationship with Shen Qianjun.
It's okay in private, but in public, they still have to be suppressed, and they can't just let go.
"Governor Shang, when Governor Shen takes another step forward, you will have the final say in Jiangbei. Let's just bear with it. Without Governor Shen, I wonder if he can still make waves in Jiangbei!" Zhu Huayun was a little angry. Said unfairly.
There is also a hint of helplessness in this resentment.
Shang Hantang said: "Don't be patient, once or twice is fine. That's for Governor Shen's sake. Don't care about him. If we bow our heads in front of him three or five times, I think even Governor Shen will treat us badly." If I have an opinion, I’m too embarrassed to say anything else.”
Zhu Huayun raised his eyebrows and asked: "Governor Shang, do you mean that we don't need to give face to that person named Chu in the future?"
Shang Hantang's hand gently rubbed the lid of the tea cup, nodded and said: "Yes, Governor Shen is such a big shot, how could he not know how to cherish his own feathers? That person named Chu, relied on Governor Shen to pretend to be a tiger." It’s okay once, but if it happens too many times, Governor Shen will also feel disgusted.”
Zhu Huayun asked again: "Didn't you say that the man named Chu and Governor Shen are close friends of life and death?"
Shang Hantang smiled and said: "As far as I know, the man named Chu has some medical skills and saved Governor Shen's life. If this is a life-and-death friendship, that's fine, but to put it bluntly, this is not the same as in the hospital. What is the difference between doctors? It is their duty for doctors to save lives and heal the wounded, just like we work for Jiangbei. Don’t talk about dedication. This is our duty. Our job is to develop and build Jiangbei well so that the people can live and work in peace and contentment."
Only now did Zhu Huayun understand that the so-called "friendship of life and death" mentioned by Shang Han and Tang Dynasty was actually this.
"Governor Shang, I thought we were friends between life and death. It turns out that Chu's medical skills saved Governor Shen's life. It can be said that Chu is kind to Governor Shen, but we can't say we are friends between life and death."
In Zhu Huayun's view, this is not a life-and-death friendship. He believes that a life-and-death friendship is one who has saved lives on the battlefield or experienced life and death together. This is called a life-and-death friendship.
"So you understand now, once or twice, I will consider Governor Shen's face and not argue with him, but if it happens more times, I will no longer worry about Governor Shen's face. After all, he is not a member of the Shen family. , Governor Shen will not truly treat him as one of his family members." Shang Hantang said.
Zhu Huayun already felt confident after listening to Shang Hantang's words.
"Governor Shang, I understand." Zhu Huayun nodded, feeling relieved.
"By the way Hua Yun, one day later will be the day when Lin Yuan's new Zijin General will be awarded the title. You should also make some preparations and buy a flower basket to send over. After all, Lin Yuan is the most powerful institution in Jiangbei. We still have to Think about it." Shang Hantang warned.
Zhu Huayun said: "Okay Governor Shang, I listen to you. On the day of the award, I will personally deliver the flower basket."
Shang Hantang smiled faintly and said: "Hua Yun, everything is subject to my arrangements. On the day of the awarding of honors, we will toast the new General Zijin. Although we and Mu Yunlong, Shi Yuntian and Pei Yunhai The relationship is not very close, but if we can establish a good relationship with this new General Zijin, it will be very beneficial for us to carry out work in Jiangbei in the future."
Zhu Huayun also agreed very much and said: "Governor Shang, you are absolutely right. We really need to have a good relationship with Jianglin Yuan. As the two major power centers in the Jiangbei region, a harmonious relationship between the two parties will be more conducive to future work. .”
On the other side, the Jianglin Academy has almost completed preparations for Chu Yang's investiture ceremony.
Mu Yunlong, Pei Yunhai, and Shi Yuntian, the three elders of the General Lin Academy, were fully responsible for the preparation work. The three old guys worked very hard to retain Chu Yang.
They intended to train Chu Yang to be their successor, but they were worried that a genius like Chu Yang would leave.
Far away in the south of the Yangtze River, a middle-aged man with dagger-like eyes walked out of a villa built halfway up a mountain.
