Chapter 167 Knife(1/3)
"I mean, do you have any objection to this?"
Xu Yinhe quietly looked at the slightly excited expression of the eldest son in front of him, his voice was very light.
As he finished speaking, the carriage suddenly fell silent.
Xu Yinhe’s question is a bit cold-blooded.
But in this position, you often have to maintain this cold-bloodedness.
No one doesn’t like power. If you insist that you don’t like power, you must have never tasted the taste of power.
"If there is, you can say it."
Under his gaze, Xu Changge's slightly excited eyes gradually calmed down and sighed:
"Father, are you worried about something like the Li family happening between Changtian and me?"
Xu Yinhe didn't speak, which was regarded as acquiescence.
Li family, surname Tian.
The current emperor has been bedridden for so many years. Although he has established a prince, those princes with outstanding abilities have almost lost their minds in trying to grab the golden throne.
Two people have already been sent to Tiandao, which is specially designed to imprison the royal family.
Xu Changge took out some tea-drinking utensils from the Sumeru Ring, and while playing with them, he spoke casually.
The voice is very soft and serious.
"Father, when my mother died in front of me, I made a decision to protect the three brothers and sisters of Chang'an.
"But when he died in Chang'an, I was powerless. There are many things in this world that cannot be solved by cultivation, so you asked me to take over the Prime Minister's Mansion and I agreed, just to prevent these things from happening again."
Having said that,
Xu Changge poured a cup of fragrant tea, gently pushed it in front of Xu Yinhe with his hand, and raised his eyes to stare at the other person's falcon-like gaze:
"It's just my father. Changtian's prodigal son has indeed changed a lot since he turned back, but can he do better than me? If not, then sitting in this position will only harm him."
Xu Yinhe did not directly answer this question:
"Still observing, but his methods are very good."
"Very good"
Listening to his father's comment, Xu Changge murmured and nodded:
"Then Changtian is indeed stronger than me in this regard. Father, your subordinates are not very convinced."
Xu Yinhe picked up the teacup and took a sip, commenting:
"It's normal to be dissatisfied. Changge, you are doing things too fiercely."
Each of those old friends has a better character than the last, and even though the orders to be implemented are still arranged, the process is very bumpy.
It’s really rough.
Moreover, I don’t know how much of it was done for the sake of the Prime Minister.
If he is gone, who can guarantee that it can be carried out?
And if not.
A sigh flashed across Xu Yinhe's eyes.
Xu Changge was very aware of the flaws in his temperament and sipped his tea:
"I know, so I have no objection to my father asking Chang Tian to take over, as long as he can do a better job than me."
"."
Xu Yinhe said no more, took out a Tianxun crystal from the Sumeru ring, and poured the majestic source energy like the ocean tide into it.
Xu Changge hesitated slightly when he saw this scene:
"Father, this is you."
"Someone contacted me just now when I was at Wuchenghou Mansion. This time should be Changtian. Yesterday, there was news from the Wanxiang Sect that the assembly has been completed."
Xu Changge smiled softly:
"Is this your test for him?"
"That's right, but the news from the Black Scale Guard has been very good these days." Xu Yinhe replied truthfully.
Seeing this, Xu Changge stopped mentioning the matter and asked instead:
"Xin Yao is here too?"
"Yeah." Xu Yinhe.
Xu Changge's eyes softened for a moment:
"Although it's a little late, it's still a New Year reunion."
"Long sky?"
When the communication crystal was connected, Xu Yuan was discussing some formation-related matters with Xu Xinyao in the secret room, but after hearing this voice, both of them fell silent.
After a moment of pause,
Xu Yuan considered his words and nodded:
"Father, it's me."
"What happened?"
"I want to confirm something with you, father."
"."
Xu Yinhe was not surprised at all by this, after all, he had only been told to negotiate before:
"Because of those 40,000 black scale troops?"
"No." Xu Yuan gave a direct negative answer.
Xu Yinhe raised his eyebrows for a moment:
"If it's not because of this, then why are you looking for a father?"
Quiet for a few breaths,
Xu Yuan took a deep breath and got straight to the point:
"Does Xu Changge know what you want to do?"
"."
Inside the carriage, Xu Yinhe felt a little surprised.
He didn't reveal much information about the third son, but it seemed that the third son had figured out what he wanted to do.
Glancing at the eldest son sitting opposite with a smile, Xu Yinhe asked in a low voice:
"What do you need your brother to know?"
"."
This question stunned Xu Yuan in the secret interrogation room.
He didn't think that his father's city couldn't understand the meaning of his words.
Is he asking this question now because his previous judgment was wrong, or because the other party deliberately wants him to admit it personally.
But how do you bring this kind of thing to the table?
Should I ask directly: Dad, do you plan to let me inherit the throne?
After thinking for a moment, Xu Yuan said in a gentle voice:
"Aren't you doing this to test my capacity?"
"Yes." Xu Yinhe's answer was brief.
Hearing this, Xu Yuan's eyes flashed for a moment:
"In this case, I think this matter must be approved by Xu Changge?"
The sound of steady breathing came, and after a while, Xu Yinhe asked with a serious tone:
"Changtian, I can understand your words to mean that you think I am going to hand over the Prime Minister's Mansion to you instead of your eldest brother?"
"."
Huh?
The tone of the father's question made Xu Yuan feel unsure.
Those things before were all speculation.
Maybe, this dad just wants him to be the second in command to assist Xu Changge?
As soon as the thought of hesitation arose, Xu Yuan rejected it.
