Chapter 357 Who do you support? (page 12)

After listening to Su Zhe's words, Xu Huaiyi sighed casually, "It seems that the emperor's punishment has dealt a heavy blow to the princes."

Su Zhe choked and said quietly, "Then there's no need to say it?"

In an ordinary family, if I teach my son a lesson, the son will be depressed for a long time, let alone the royal family. King and father, king and father, there is not only the relationship between father and son, but also the difference between king and minister. Who can not be afraid?

Xu Huaiyi laughed twice and added, "Only with deep love can we have deep responsibility. Haha, just think about it..."

Su Zhe sighed helplessly, "It's difficult..."

Xu Huaiyi's eyes flashed, "Now you have a chance to share your worries. Do you dare to try it?"

"What opportunity?" Su Zhe looked at him, his eyes suddenly brightening.

Xu Huaiyi winked and said, "I told you about the Chamber of Commerce before. If this thing is done, it will definitely be a great achievement. It will also be beneficial to the second prince. It can be regarded as a political achievement, right? Our Dayong , Do not discriminate against merchants, if business develops well, people will live better, and the imperial treasury will be filled. "

Su Zhe was stunned, "You mean, tell him about the establishment of the Chamber of Commerce. It's best to get his support, get him involved, and let him..."

Let the second prince also take a share of the pie.

Xu Huaiyi nodded, "If we can persuade the Second Prince to support us, it will be easier for the Chamber of Commerce to handle matters and its influence will be greater."

Of course, there will be corresponding disadvantages, but in Xu Huaiyi's opinion, those disadvantages can still be overcome, especially the advantages far outweigh the disadvantages.

Su Zhe nodded subconsciously, and then asked uncertainly, "But what if the second prince doesn't like it?"

Although there is no discrimination in doing business these days, those in higher positions still do not want to be tainted by the smell of copper.

Xu Huaiyi said meaningfully, "Then tell him all the benefits of establishing the Chamber of Commerce. There will always be something that can impress him."

Su Zhe frowned and began to think.

Xu Huaiyi didn't bother him. After drinking a cup of milk tea leisurely, the hesitation in Su Zhe's eyes became firm, "You're right, this is my chance."

If this thing is done well, it will be more respected than making money for the second prince. The Su family can also give him money, but what is the Chamber of Commerce? It is a private force. If this force is well managed, it can also contribute to the great cause.

Su Zhe stood up, bowed and thanked him, and left in a hurry.

After the door closed, Li Yunting, who had been silent for the whole time, couldn't help but asked curiously, "Are you planning to help Su Zhe support the second prince?"

Xu Huaiyi took off his shoes, leaned half on the bed, flipped through his storybook, and said without raising his head, "No, I won't get involved in those things."

Li Yunting was puzzled, "Then what you did just now seemed to be that you wanted to attribute the credit for establishing the Chamber of Commerce to the second prince. Although I don't quite understand the significance of this Chamber of Commerce and its weight, Su Zhe attaches so much importance to it. , I think it has a lot of benefits. If it can be done, it will undoubtedly increase the bargaining chips for the second prince to compete for the throne..."

Xu Huaiyi said carelessly, "I'm just giving Su Zhe an idea. Of course, more importantly, I want to get the Chamber of Commerce thing done. It's too hard and too hard for Su Zhe to go back and forth all by himself." It's troublesome. Moreover, there is no peace in his family, and the fighting is too fierce. I'm worried that if his elder brother finds out about this, he will stop him, and the idea of ​​establishing a chamber of commerce will probably be scrapped. But if there is a second prince behind it, With support, the situation will be very different. No matter how unwilling his eldest brother is, he will not dare to cause sabotage, and his biological father will no longer be in trouble. As for whether he will become a bargaining chip for the second prince... that is a matter for the future, and it belongs to the Chamber of Commerce. The purpose is to serve businessmen and is not very political.”

Li Yunting understood, "You are not helping him, you are using him."

It's really brave, but he likes it.

Xu Huaiyi hissed, "If you see through it but don't tell it, we are still good brothers."

Li Yunting raised the corner of his mouth, "However, you still have to pay attention to your sense of propriety. After all, in the eyes of others, you are helping the second prince, and it is easy to be classified as the camp that supports the second prince. Who told you to go with Su Zhe? It’s getting closer and closer, so it’s normal to be misunderstood.”

Xu Huaiyi chuckled, "Then if I am closer to you, shouldn't it be more appropriate for me to be rowed to the Third Prince's ship?"

Li Yunting subconsciously said, "How is that the same? Even I don't admit that I am the third prince..."

Xu Huaiyi said, "It doesn't matter whether you admit it or not. What matters is that you are the son of Dingyuan Houfu and the nominal brother-in-law of the third prince. This is enough. Especially I heard that the third prince's concubine is still pregnant. Once After you give birth to an imperial grandson, your relationship with the third prince will only become closer. It is simply impossible for you to live alone. "

Li Yunting was speechless for a moment.

Xu Huaiyi continued, "If we are on good terms, many people will think that I am on the same page as you. This is human nature. For example, if you ask me for help, can I ignore it? Even if it indirectly benefits the third prince, Then I don’t care, brotherhood is more important, don’t you think?”

Li Yunting said "hmm". He was heartbroken just now, but now he became enlightened because of his words.

Then Xu Huaiyi smiled evilly and said, "Actually, I have some relationship with the Fourth Prince. Once anyone finds out, I will probably be labeled as a member of the Four Princes' party."

Li Yunting asked in surprise, "What's the relationship?"

Xu Huaiyi said, "My sister, in order to survive, became a concubine for Qiao Huaijin's cousin during her escape. Although the concubine's natal family is not a serious relative, the blood relationship cannot be broken. For the sake of profit, it is not that she cannot move around. You think so. Bar?"

He spoke calmly, even with a hint of ridicule and teasing, but without any shame or anger.

Li Yunting asked, "Aren't you angry?"

For those who cling to the powerful, sending girls from their families to be concubines is nothing. But for a sweet-tempered man like Xu Huaiyi, who would not even use beautiful maids for fear of someone crawling into his bed, he must despise such a thing.

Xu Huaiyi smiled bitterly, "I was angry a long time ago. I found out later that it was too late to stop me. In fact, even if I knew it in advance, I couldn't stop it. My sister is very ambitious. She doesn't want to marry a country man, so she is willing to go." If a wealthy family enjoys a good life, I can just take it as a concubine. If the three views are different, even if I talk nonsense, she won't listen. "

Li Yunting nodded, "Everyone has his own ambitions and cannot be forced to do so. But if your sister does this, your position is really passive. The Qiao family is the fourth prince's maternal family. No matter what, they cannot be torn apart. One will be prosperous and one will suffer. My concubine is also a member of the Qiao family."

According to the world's classification standards, Xu Huaiyi is a proper member of the Fourth Prince Party.

Xu Huaiyi spread his hands, "So, look, is there any difference if I help the second prince or the third prince?"

Li Yunting suddenly joked, "Tell me, after these things get out, will others think that you are running around and betting on everything?"

Xu Huaiyi sighed exaggeratedly, "Be more confident, others will definitely think so, oh, I'm afraid my reputation will be ruined, God knows, I don't want to touch anyone!"

He just wants to help his own advantage.

After school in the afternoon, Wei Liang drove a mule cart to pick him up. Along the way, Xu Huaiyi asked about the temple opening ceremony in the village.

Wei Liang responded one by one.

"I heard from my classmate that many powerful families in the city send their servants to watch the fun. Can you recognize them?"
