Fairy, Please Let Me Explain

"That's it now, let's get over it first."

Xu Yuan did not continue to flog Li Junwu's stupid choice, but instead said softly: "Although your choice is very risky, it is undeniable that it does help us eliminate some internal risks."

Li Junwu was still unhappy, but he adjusted quickly and said:

"You mean the generals who watched me commit suicide?"

Xu Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly, sat on the edge of the table, looked directly at the words hanging on the side wall, and said quietly:

"Killing you is one of their ultimate goals. The craftsmen in your Zhenxi Mansion must be expecting your death."

Li Junwu pursed his lips slightly when he heard this:

"You mean to say that those generals who choose to stand by and watch are traitors?"

Xu Yuan shook his head and said:

"Not entirely. Not saving you does not mean that they are traitors. Some of them may not have reacted, and some of them should be loyal to Zhenxi Mansion, but they have complaints against you, so they chose at that moment hesitate."

As he said that, Xu Yuan glanced at her at the main seat with a gentle expression:

"Although Zhan Xian'an is a traitor on our side, to his generals, he is a brother who has lived and died together for many years. It is human nature that they cannot agree with this change of status in a short period of time."

Li Junwu frowned and said dissatisfiedly:

"Can you tell me the result directly?"

"Look, just because you're here again and I'm helping you analyze it doesn't mean you can't use your brain."

"My old man also has many military advisors around him. He just judges what is right and wrong most of the time."

"."

Xu Yuan was speechless for a while, sighed softly, and said with a smile:

"Reverse the characteristics I just mentioned. If the relationship with Zhan Xian'an is not very good on the surface, and has enough strength to prevent you from committing suicide, the person with the two characteristics combined will most likely be the person you suppress. The traitor in the West Mansion.”

Li Junwu narrowed his eyes:

"You say Lu Baizou is also a traitor? He is an old man who went through the Tartar-Chao Rebellion with my father, and half of his body is about to be buried. What does he want to betray Zhenxi Mansion?"

Xu Yuan nodded and said softly:

"There can be many reasons for choosing to betray. It may be family, it may be your own greed, or it may be because your father gained power and the spoils were unevenly distributed, causing him to be dissatisfied with his current position."

As he spoke, Xu Yuan casually took out a file from the desk, spread it out, and whispered:

"I just took a look at his resume. Based on Lu Baozou's achievements over the past few decades, he is indeed worthy of the position of commander-in-chief of a town."

Li Junwu was a little depressed after hearing this:

"So this is my father's failure to reward merit?"

"boom!"

Xu Yuan raised his hand and knocked Li Junwu directly on the head, and said angrily:

"Instead of blaming others for your own problems, you will feel much more comfortable."

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

"What I mean is that you have to think more from your own point of view. There are not many fair things in this world, and your father has no choice in many things."

Li Junwu rubbed his head and stretched out his hand to fight back, but felt it was too childish, so he held back:

"What's the meaning?"

"The rise of our Prime Minister's Mansion is largely due to the annexation of the Long family and my mother's family. You don't think that your Zhenxi Mansion can reach its current size because of your father's step-by-step management, right?"

After entering the government office and looking up the secrets of Li Junwu's family, Xu Yuancai discovered that the root cause of the Zhenxihou Mansion had been buried since the Tarchao Revolution. It was not just the Mu Chamber of Commerce and his family, but also those who had been destroyed. The remnants of the sect.

Xu Yuan spoke slowly, with a hint of sigh in his tone: "The Xizezhou sect was destroyed, your father absorbed the remaining forces, and those people supported your father and provided money, food and people for your Zhenxi Mansion. , and of course you have to ask for something in return.”

The forces absorbed by the Prime Minister's Office were all controlled and obeyed. The Prime Minister's Office was Xu Yinhe's exclusive power.

But Zhenxi Hou Mansion, which started in the same way, seemed to be forced to go another way.

When the Marquis of Zhenxi was alive, he could still rely on his own prestige and the direct generals he brought to suppress the people below. When the Marquis of Zhenxi and those old people passed away, what was left to Li Junwu would be a ruling power. The Zhenxihou Mansion is riddled with holes.

This is probably one of the reasons why Zhenxihou has been unwilling to let Li Junwu take over.

Li Junwu heard the meaning of Xu Yuan's words, but he was not too frustrated. Instead, he laughed softly:

"It looks like my family's situation is more troublesome than I expected."

Xu Yuan looked at him for a moment and whispered:

"But it's not like there's no solution."

Li Junwu raised his eyebrows, bent his eyes and said:

"What solution?"

"If you want it to be simpler, just let me, the Prime Minister's Mansion, help you and directly carry out the purge."

"Then my Zhenxi Mansion will become a vassal of your family, right?"

"Have you actually been discovered?"

"." Li Junwu.

Xu Yuan smiled slightly and said seriously: "It's just a joke. I really don't recommend that you rely on the power of the Prime Minister's Mansion to rectify the interior of your Zhenxi Mansion. If this is true, your family will most likely end up like the Long family. , so the best choice is to slowly engage in Machiavellian tactics, win over and suppress, and join forces. "

"No need to go to such trouble?"

"Um?"

"Isn't the Six Saints' attack on the city the best opportunity now?"

"Are you so smart?"

"." Li Junwu.

Rolling his eyes, not wanting to argue with this guy, Li Junwu hummed and said:

"But the premise of all this is that we can defend the city first. What do you think we should do with Lu Bozou?"

Getting back to the topic, Xu Yuan said in a low voice without thinking:

"We have no reason to touch him now. If we kill him by force, it may cause more trouble, and at worst, there may even be a mutiny in the army."

Li Junwu whispered:

"Of course I know this, so what should we do?"

Xu Yuan frowned and thought for a while, and said:

"Lu Bozou's biggest problem is actually his Xuanting Army. According to the military system of your Zhenxi Army, unless you can forcefully use your power to seize control of the military formation, if he has some tricks, he may cooperate with the saints outside at any time."

At this point, Xu Yuan's eyes suddenly flashed, and he smiled and said:

"Promote him in public but demote him in private. The army cannot be without a commander for a day. Use your status as a county lord to appoint him as the temporary commander of the second town, tie this guy to your side, and it will be convenient to deal with him directly when a fight breaks out."

Li Junwu asked hesitantly :

"Will he agree? With the previous experience of Zhan Xian'an, Lu Bozou will definitely stay in the Xuanting military camp. How could he agree to stay in the government office?"

Hearing this question, Xu Yuan grinned:

"Of course he won't agree, so you have to create an opportunity for him to agree."

After hearing this, Li Junwu thought for a moment, and then smiled:

"Then I will summon all the generals in the city and appoint Lu Bozou in public? Even if he disagrees, his subordinates will push him up. After all, he has the highest prestige in the city now."

Xu Yuan nodded, his eyes flashed with a hint of coldness:

"In addition, we have to find a way to give the general surnamed Jin real power. It would be best if he could be transferred to the Xuanting Army and let him take charge of this most powerful army."

Li Junwu reminded:

"Lu Bozou will definitely hand over this position to his deputy."

Xu Yuan smiled indifferently:

"Then let the general surnamed Jin be the deputy of Lu Bozou's deputy first, and then let Lu Bozou's deputy take sick leave, right? We have Linlang, the top Saint-level combat power in our hands, so it is not difficult to make a person disappear."
