Chapter 5185 Losing Your Life

"Okay." Suddenly, the fifth prince interrupted and sighed: "Now is not the time to care about merits and demerits, Ye Wudao, didn't you say, do you have a way or a plan? Please bring it up and listen."

Ye Wudao cupped his fists and bowed, saying: "Your Highness, my method is very simple."

"oh?"

"You want to cooperate with the Sixth Princess."

The fifth prince was stunned and said hesitantly: "She and I are not dealing with each other, so why should we cooperate?"

"I see that many forces in the court are not acting rashly now. They are as quiet as sinking into the water." Ye Wudao said, "Only you and the Sixth Princess are the focus now."

"It's not nice to talk about the royal family's dispute to the outside world. If you can unite, the reputation of the royal family will be much better. Outsiders will say that, and the people will say that although the royal family has disputes, it is more united and harmonious."

Wu Shangshu said coldly: "Bad idea." M.

However, the fifth prince said cautiously: "That's not true. If I do this, my father will definitely be very happy if he knows about it. But this matter of uniting each other needs to have a name, and it is my father who takes the lead."

Ye Wudao smiled slightly and said: "Yes, what I was about to say is that the Holy One took the lead. The harmonious relationship between your brothers and sisters is all the result of the Holy One, but the Holy One does not have to do anything. He only needs to wait for us to create something for him." Just reputation.”

"In addition, Your Highness, please think about it, why is it that my experience is so shallow, yet Your Majesty is so generous and directly promotes me to a third-grade official?"

The fifth prince thought for a moment and gave the answer: "I know, it's because he needs you as an example, and he needs others to follow suit and offer him immortality."

"But he didn't want to make it too embarrassing, lest others say that he deliberately enriched himself and abdicated, so even though you were promoted to a third-grade official, he didn't summon you."

The fifth prince is indeed a smart man. He can guess many things by himself without Ye Wudao saying them.

There are many words that you don’t need to say yourself, but you need to leave room for people’s imagination. Only in this way can you make a deep impression.

Ye Wudao continued to preach in a persuasive manner: "Then there is a problem with the Holy One now, that is, no one follows my example. It seems that everyone feels that the Holy One is about to abdicate, and the future of Shenxia's world will be decided by others."

"They don't want to plan for the moment, but want to plan for the eternity. But if you can't plan for the moment, how can you plan for the eternity?"

The fifth prince looked thoughtful, but Wu Shangshu frowned and put forward the opposite opinion.

"Everyone knows that you, Ye Wudao, are indeed set as a role model, but if everyone rushes to offer immortal yuan, even if the people don't tell you now, won't it be left in the history books of Shenxia in the future? "

"Will future generations speculate that the Holy One is just trying to make money, that everything is his own handiwork, and that he is not a wise king? You need to be measured in doing things. If you take the lead and rush forward, you will be displeased by the Holy One."

Ye Wudao smiled: "If you ask me, the Holy Master cares about both the posthumous name and the posthumous name."

"What do you mean by this?" The fifth prince looked confused.

Ye Wudao said: "Everything has advantages and disadvantages. Everyone understands the truth. As long as we do this to make the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, wouldn't it be a success? If we want both, what can we accomplish?"

"Nothing in the world is perfect. We have to face the possible displeasure of the Holy One. Although there are risks, it is not unbearable."

"We must find a way to fill His Majesty's gold department. If His Majesty donates enough, His Majesty will definitely give him the throne. Only in this way can we have the opportunity to inherit the throne."

"Just set an example and force everyone to donate money to the Ministry of Finance."

Wu Shangshu's face changed greatly, and he gritted his teeth and said, "You mean, just like forcing the princes and princesses, let everyone use their wealth to contribute to the Ministry of Finance? What's the reason? What's the excuse?"

Such a move would undoubtedly offend everyone, and it was no wonder why Wu Shangshu was so angry. His family wealth was a small matter, but offending so many officials in the court might cost him his life.
