The six ministries and nine ministers are all the real bosses in the court.

Even if the Ministry of Industry had no real power, it would still be the Sixth Ministry; no matter how Zhou Zhenghuai did not fight for power and gain, he would still be the Minister.

At Lao Zhou's age, it doesn't matter what official position he holds, you can criticize him, but you can't criticize him.

There are some things that don’t need to be said much, or even said explicitly. This is how smart people deal with each other.

Han You came and asked for a loan.

Borrowing people is related to the Ma family.

Dare to mess with the Ma family, very cool, Lao Zhou pretended not to want to get on the pirate ship, for fear of being accidentally injured by the Ma family.

Han You said that you have thought too much and did not want to find you as a backer. The Ma family does not even pay attention to the prime minister, how can they still be taboo about you, the minister.

The Ma family is not afraid of Zaifu, but Han You dares to mess with the Ma family. The implication is that Zaifu is not the only one who messes with the Ma family.

Han You said that he was looking for someone to "increase his momentum". What is this? This is forming a clique, and the emperor is most taboo about this kind of thing.

So if Han You dared to do this, it goes without saying that it was the emperor who supported him in taking over the Ma family.

The next thing is simple. Do you, Zhou Zhenghuai, take sides? If you take sides as emperor, you will receive the money. No need for you to do anything. If someone criticizes my father in the court, you can just jump out and confront him.

Zhou Zhenghuai took sides, but he couldn't say it so clearly, so he had to charge more money.

Han You turned around and left. Help or not, my backer is not you Zhou Zhenghuai, but the emperor. Let me tell you clearly, it is the emperor who got rid of the Ma family, and your name is on the credit book.

That's it. Nothing was said, but an agreement was reached.

In fact, Young Master Han doesn't like this method of "communication" at all, but he can't help it, everyone is like this.

It seems that the higher the official position, the more willing to be mysterious and let the other party "understand on their own." If things are done, it is because you understood it correctly. If things are not done, or something goes wrong, it means you understood it wrong, or you went too far. Interpretation, it has nothing to do with me.

Logically speaking, Han You should consult more with "old-timers" like Zhou Zhenghuai or Huang Youwei for advice on how to gain a foothold in Beijing and how to gain more experience in struggle.

But Han You didn't do this, because many old-timers are actually old foxes. It doesn't matter that much. Even if they ask for advice, what they say is nonsense.

What are you talking about, you want to mess with the Ma family, oh, that's it, actually, this job looks dangerous, but in fact it's not safe at all. In short, it's all such nonsense. If you are not your biological father and mother, who will really wish you well, no It would be nice to trick you.

After leaving Zhou Mansion, it was getting late, so Han You did not go to Huang Youwei, but returned to his home.

It happened that my father, Han Bairen, had just left work, and the father and son met at the door.

The father and son entered the house arm in arm.

Now that he has money, the food in the Han family has finally improved. There is meat for every meal, and there are more than a dozen jars of wine in the dining room.

Han Bairen was holding a big chicken drumstick in his left hand and holding a wine glass in his right hand. He was very comfortable, shaking his head and listening to the sound of the pipa.

Ah Fu played the pipa. It was such a clear and sweet instrument, and Ah Fu played it in a reggae style.

Wang Hai, who was squatting next to him and eating roasted chicken, had his eyes shining brightly. He held it in for a long time and blurted out: "I am still holding my pipa and half covering my face. I am talking about Ah Fu."

Han You sighed deeply.

When people play the pipa, they are holding the pipa and half covering their faces. When Afu plays the pipa, he looks like a sea of ​​magic gifts.

In fact, the two sisters Afu and Aman are also talented. As long as they make a living on the flower boat, they can grow up, but they have to survive.

The old madam is not responsible for welcoming guests every day. When she has nothing to do, she also trains the girls, not only in training techniques, but also in art.

Afu Aman couldn't learn skills, so he could only see if he could do some art. Madam Yanliu wanted to guide the two girls to more hard-core talents, such as the pot initiation on the chest.

Zhongsun Wushuang felt sorry for them. He taught piano, chess, calligraphy and painting when he had nothing to do. Ahfu and Aman were the kind of people who knew a little bit about everything but were not good at anything.

The Han family didn't have so many rules. The servants all squatted at the door of the dining room to eat. Wang Shan, Wang Hai, Uncle Qin, and Zhongsun Wushuang all ate in the back garden with the Han family and his son.

Not only did everyone like Zhongsun Wushuang, they were also very fond of Afu Aman. The two fat girls looked like Fuwa dolls, and they looked happy.

Han Bairen took a sip of roasted chicken and a sip of wine, and was very satisfied with his current life in Han Mansion.

Dad is not a greedy person, and he also wants to eat meat every day. He just feels guilty that everyone followed him to Beijing to live a miserable life every day.

It's fine now. Han You didn't dare to say he was rich after he started making money, but at least he didn't have to worry about spending money.

"Dad, let me tell you something."

Han You poured a glass of wine for Han Bairen and said seriously: "The Prime Minister and His Majesty asked me to deal with the Ma family. I am going to test it in the next few days. If nothing happens, the two Ma family brothers will counterattack. I will try my best to control the fight. On the surface, but in this case, they are likely to find some scoundrels to criticize you in the court."

Han Bairen crunched the chicken bones: "Who would criticize a father?"

"I don't know, the Ma family is very powerful in the North, and there are many officials from the Northland family in the court. They are very afraid of Ma Rufeng and Ma Rulong. For them, the emperor will at most take away their official positions, but the Ma family has control over It is the fate of their entire family."

"Are you an official from the North?" Han Bairen nodded slightly: "My father knows about it, so don't worry. If someone criticizes my father, just accept it. I won't go to court anyway."

Han You laughed dumbly. His father thought of things too simply.

Yes, Han Bairen thought of things very simply, and he didn't quite understand why the elder was going through so much trouble.

"Since it is the emperor's order and the prime minister's support, why doesn't Youer cut the knot with a quick knife? Wouldn't it be easier to chop up all the Ma family members?"

Han You didn't know how to explain it. The matter was too complicated. In one sentence, it would affect his whole body. The emperor did not dare to take risks.

It's not that he doesn't want to explain, because he knows that even if he explains, his father will still say the same thing and chop it all off.

I can’t say, how can I say it, if Ma Rufeng and Ma Rulong died, the Northland family would cause trouble, and then my father would definitely say that they should be chopped down together, and then he said that other people would be ready to take action, and finally, dad said that they should all be chopped down. .

Dad obviously didn't take it seriously, maybe he didn't take the Ma brothers seriously from beginning to end, and continued to drink and eat.

Han You didn't want his father to worry about such things, so he went to the study after coaxing him for a few words.

There is a roster in the study, which Lu Baichuan gave to him. Officials in Beijing who are related to the Ma family. Officials in Beijing who may be related to the Ma family. There are more than 30 officials in Beijing. Most of them are from the Beidi family. There are all temples.

Han You looked at the names on the list, and the plan in his mind became more and more detailed, and the details became more and more perfect.

Putting down the list, Han You began to continue drawing.

Time passed minute by minute, and as Han You yawned and prepared to go back to the bedroom to sleep, Lu Baichuan came.

Okawa-kun now regards Han Mansion as his own home. Like the principal, he sleeps wherever he wants.

Pushing open the door of the study, Lu Baichuan handed a map to Han You and went to the dining room to find something to eat without even letting go.

Han You laughed loudly: "Ma Rufeng, raise horses, right? I'll let you raise them, just wait!"
