Rise From the Humble

"Ahem, Zihou, let's not talk about the impact of this. Is this okay?"

It took Yin Shidan a long time to recover from Zhu Ping'an's shocking suggestion. He drank a sip of tea to calm down his shock. During the drinking period, he accidentally caught a glimpse of King Yu's face, which was as red as if it was burned by fire. He couldn't help but choked. , after calming down, he looked up at Zhu Pingan and asked uncertainly.

In fact, when Yin Shidan asked Zhu Pingan, the balance in his heart was slowly leaning towards Zhu Pingan's suggestion.

However, he needs Zhu Pingan to add weight to him.

After Yin Shidan asked, Chen Yiqin and Gao Gong both looked at Zhu Pingan, and King Yu on the side also looked at Zhu Pingan with complicated eyes.

"I think I should be 90% sure..." Zhu Pingan said slowly, "First of all, Yan Shifan is a greedy person, and he is also a person with good professional ethics in accepting bribes. Selling officials and accepting bribes are all at a clear price. "Young men are not deceived." As long as he accepts the money, he will definitely be able to help you get things done. The flood of posts and gifts in front of Yan's house proves that Yan Shifan has good bribe-taking ethics. Otherwise, even if Yan Shifan relies on Yan Song's support, Even if it’s a big tree, not many people will come to give you gifts or bribes.”

Of course, when talking about Yan Shifan's good professional ethics in accepting bribes, Zhu Pingan's tone was sarcastic.

Gao Gong, Chen Yiqin and others all laughed speechlessly when they heard Zhu Ping'an mocking Yan Shifan's good professional ethics in taking bribes.

However, they agreed in their hearts that Zhu Pingan said that Yan Shifan seemed to be really like this. Although he was extremely greedy and had various methods of accepting bribes, he did do things after receiving money.

"His ethics are bullshit..." Yin Shidan flattened his mouth, and then asked, "Even if he has some bullshit professional ethics for taking bribes, will he accept or dare to accept bribes from us? Where is he standing? Team..."

Yin Shidan hinted that Yan Shifan was on King Jing's team. Could he accept a bribe from King Yu so that King Yu could receive the annual gift? !

"Everyone knows that Yan Shifan is greedy and arrogant. I think he will not let go of this opportunity. Firstly, what we have given him is real money, so he has no reason not to accept it. Secondly, , Just think about it, if His Highness Prince Yu can only do things after giving him a gift, then who will dare not to give him a gift in the future?! With our effects and examples, Yan Shifan will be able to receive the gift next time Be soft-hearted. I don’t think he, who is greedy and cunning, will miss this opportunity to publicize and expand his influence.”

Zhu Pingan glanced at everyone and explained slowly.

"Well, it makes sense... With Yan Shifan's courage and personality, he is capable of doing this kind of thing." Gao Gong nodded slightly. He knew Yan Shifan relatively well, and what Zhu Ping'an said agreed with him. consistent.

Chen Yiqin paused while stroking his beard when he heard this. He lowered his head and thought carefully about Zhu Ping'an's suggestion. Although he had not dealt with Yan Shifan many times, Yan Shifan's reputation had long been well known.

"Besides..."

Zhu Ping'an paused, bowed to Prince Yu and apologized, "What you say next will offend His Highness. Ping'an apologizes first."

"Zihou, why are you guilty? If you say you are guilty, you are a serious thief." King Yu shook his head. He was now very angry and disgusted with Yan Shifan and his son.

In the past, when the emperor's brother passed away, when Emperor Jiajing asked about the prince, he should appoint Gu as the prince. However, Yan Song, an old thief, pretended to be confused and secretly supported brother Zhen. He did not express his position, causing Gu to miss the opportunity!

And Yan Shifan, the little thief! Withholding the annual gift from the orphan for three years, the orphan had to scrimp on food and clothing, and his life was so miserable. Many things he wanted to do were stopped because there was no money, and the officials had to worry about rewards, so that the orphan was punished everywhere. My brother is ahead!

When mentioning Yan Song and his son, King Yu had ten thousand words in his heart that he didn't know whether to say or not!

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Zhu Pingan thanked him with his hands, and then continued after standing up, "In addition, Yan Shifan is an extremely confident, conceited, arrogant, narcissistic, and arrogant person! I once heard someone say that Yan Shifan, in front of Yan Song and everyone during a banquet, The guests boasted in front of them, 'Looking at the world today, there are only three people who can be called the world's geniuses!'"

After Zhu Ping'an finished speaking, Yin Shidan, Chen Yiqin and others nodded. They had also heard this rumor about Yan Shifan.

"Oh, which three people are he talking about?" King Yu asked curiously after hearing this.

"The first one is Yang Bo, the right deputy censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate..." Zhu Pingan stretched out a finger and replied.

"Well, Mr. Yang is both civil and military, and he deserves his title. The incident when Suzhou bandits rescued Academician Zhai from the siege was legendary. Although he is still mourning at home, he was recently appointed by his father as the right minister of the Ministry of War..." Yu Wang nodded, and then continued to ask curiously, "Who is the second person?"

"The second person is Lu Bing, the commander of the Jinyi Guards and the commander-in-chief," Zhu Ping'an replied.

"Yeah." King Yu nodded. He had a good sense of Lu Bing. After hearing the second person, King Yu was suddenly startled and raised his eyebrows. "Well, could the third person he mentioned be? Is he Yan Shifan himself?!"

"Your Highness is wise. When everyone asked Yan Shifan who the third person who could be called a world-famous genius was, Yan Shifan pointed at his own head, smiled at everyone and said, 'The third person is me.'" Zhu Ping'an said in a timely manner. He patted Prince Yu on his ass.

Who doesn't like to hear good words these days? After Zhu Ping'an said this, King Yu couldn't help but reveal a smile on his face.

"He deserves it! He hasn't even passed the imperial examination..." Yin Shidan couldn't help but spit in a low voice when he heard this.

People who have gone through the imperial examination have a natural sense of superiority towards people like Yan Shifan who became officials without going through the imperial examination.

"Haha, so this shows how narcissistic, arrogant and boastful Yan Shifan is."

Zhu Pingan smiled slightly and said softly.

King Yu nodded in agreement. How could such a person who dared to call himself a genius in public not be narcissistic and arrogant and show off.

"So..." Zhu Ping'an glanced at Prince Yu, bowed and said slowly: "As the son of the emperor - an orthodox royal bloodline - His Royal Highness Prince Yu is beyond words, give him a gift and ask him to do something. If so, a narcissistic, arrogant, and boastful person like him would definitely enjoy the thrill of conquering imperial power, and he would never give up this vanity. This alone was enough for Yan Shifan to brag about when he was drinking. A lifetime..."

Well

Prince Yu was stunned for a moment, his face turned red and white, like a color-changing lamp, constantly changing.

Chen Yiqin and others understood now. No wonder Zhu Pingan said he was offended just now. It turned out to be here.

Conquer imperial power? !

Zhu Pingan really dared to say that.

However, if King Yu gave him Yan Shifan gifts and bribes, don't tell me, it can really be interpreted like this!

Gao Gong, Chen Yiqin and others had many thoughts. Based on their understanding of Yan Shifan, if King Yu adopts Zhu Ping'an's suggestion, then Yan Shifan, who is narcissistic, arrogant and arrogant, would really refuse such vanity, such overwhelming glory. No!
