Cui Yuandao was so angry that he laughed.
This little girl is really cunning and crafty. She indeed did not target Mr. Cui Liu, but given her cleverness, how is her deliberately exposing this matter any different from targeting Mr. Cui Liu
He was mature and steady. His anger came quickly but he calmed down even faster. He calmed down almost immediately after Su Yao finished speaking. After the servants outside brought up the tea and then left, Cui Yuandao coughed and said to Su Yao calmly, "County Lady Su, let's be frank. What do you want me to do to get over this?"
The intelligence of the little girl in front of him was beyond Cui Yuandao's expectations. You know, Su Yao had really planned everything layer by layer.
First, she used Mr. Cui Liu's incident to force him to withdraw from the cabinet competition due to Gao Ping and Yang Bo, and then she alienated his relationship with Princess Fenyang.
This made him conclude that Su Yao had tipped him off one step ahead of time. After all, it was not really to help him, but a strategy to kill two birds with one stone - she wanted to use this matter as two things.
It really saves a lot of effort to talk to a smart person. Su Yao smiled and did not keep Cui Yuandao in suspense. He also spoke calmly: "It's nothing. I just have a small matter and I want to trouble Cui Daru."
really.
I'm afraid the previous tip-off was for this moment.
Cui Yuandao smiled bitterly. No wonder Princess Fenyang and the others fell into the hands of this girl. This girl was not an ordinary girl. Any ordinary girl would not have such courage and intelligence.
He did not comment: "Miss Su, please tell me what you want me to do first."
You can't ask him to pick the moon in the sky, right
Su Yao saw through Cui Yuandao's worries at a glance and said bluntly: "Don't worry, Mr. Cui, I won't make a fuss and ask you to pick the moon for me. I just want to trouble you a little bit and ask you to go to Yunnan with His Highness."
Going to Yunnan
Your Highness
Cui Yuandao frowned, and after a moment he realized that Su Yao was talking about Xiao Heng.
Unexpectedly, she was going to help Xiao Heng to quell the rebellion in Yunnan. Cui Yuandao pondered for a moment before smiling in shock: "The county lady has really given me a big problem. You know clearly that I have already had a very bad relationship with the Cui family because of my refusal to serve as an official. If I follow the princess to Yunnan at this time, wouldn't it be a betrayal of the family and a complete fallout with the Cui family? From now on, there will be no difference between us and the blood feud."
It turns out that this little girl's most ruthless move is here.
Su Yao did not deny her intention. She nodded and admitted without hesitation that what Cui Daru said was right. Then she asked in return: "The Cui family has already regarded you as a traitor to the family, right? Even if you don't form an alliance with us, I'm afraid your fate will be similar to being regarded as an enemy by the family from now on, right? In this case, are you willing to be suppressed by the Cui family from now on, and your children will also be marginalized by the Cui family?"
People who are used to being superior to others will not like the life of ordinary people. Even though they usually say that they never want to be born in an imperial family, when these chosen ones really fall into the mortal world, they will start to dislike the worldly life.
Su Yao didn't believe that Cui Daru would be an exception, otherwise, Cui Daru would not have agreed to the Cui family's proposal to come to Beijing in the first place.
Cui Daru did not feel embarrassed when his thoughts were exposed.
At his age, with such experience, he could already face himself calmly. He smiled and said, "But even if I surrender to His Highness, who would want to use a traitor? It's good when things are good, but there are also times when the birds are gone and the good bows are hidden..."
"That's why Mr. Cui should follow His Highness to Yunnan." Su Yao raised his eyebrows as a matter of course: "As long as you help His Highness pacify Yunnan and let His Highness stabilize the foundation from now on, then no matter whether it is His Highness or the people around His Highness, they will remember your kindness in the future. Even if you can't enter the cabinet now, you can always enter it in the future, right?"
This little girl really said everything.
Cui Daru didn't think anything of Su Yao. He just thought about the possibility seriously in his mind for a while, and then said to Su Yao steadily: "I need to think about it."
It is impossible to make up your mind immediately about such a big thing.
Su Yao had no objection. She smiled and said, "I'm waiting for your good news."
After saying this, he personally saw Cui Yuandao out.
Su Rong came out after Cui Yuandao left. He looked at Su Yao for a long time with complicated eyes, scratched his head and said with some jealousy: "Yaoyao, you have been trying to help His Highness win over Cui Daru, so you set up such a trap?"
In that case, actually, taking revenge on Tian Cong was just a side job and it was not the result of a deliberate plan at all.
After all, Su Yao was setting up a team for Xiao Heng.
He couldn't tell what he was feeling, but he knew that from the overall perspective, Su Yao's move was extremely brilliant. It not only undermined the Cui family's conspiracy and made Princess Fenyang helpless, but also divided the relationship between Cui Daru and the Cui family. You know, Cui Daru was also a highly respected figure in the Cui family. No matter what, he would have some influence. If he stood on Xiao Heng's side, then people who believed in Cui Yuandao would follow him.
As a result, the Cui family would be divided into two factions, arguing endlessly over which side to take.
Secondly, Cui Yuandao is indeed a great helper. Not to mention his influence among the scholars of the world, his brain alone is worthy of being won over.
Su Yao was so attentive to Xiao Heng, which made Su Rong even more worried. At the same time, he couldn't help but scold Xiao Heng for being cunning.
He treated Xiao Heng as a friend, but Xiao Heng was actually plotting to become his brother-in-law!
Su Yao didn't detect Su Rong's sour tone. She hummed, wrote a field character on the table with her finger and crossed it out, and said seriously: "We are already together with His Highness, so naturally we can only help His Highness with planning. If he had never been named the Crown Prince and was just the eldest grandson of the emperor, then if he lost the battle for the throne, he might still have a glimmer of hope. But since he has been pushed to the position of the Crown Prince, there is absolutely no possibility of retreat. Either he will rule the world from now on and ascend to the throne, or his body will be wiped out. The lessons of the past are still clear in our minds, so we must be cautious and plan carefully."
She not only helped Xiao Heng, but also the He family and the Su family.
I'm so tied to Xiao Heng that I can only hope that he gets better.
Su Rong knew that what Su Yao said made sense, and he sighed with some melancholy. (To be continued)
