Chapter 137

"Zhao Gao?"

Gao Tianlong frowned. Zhao Gao is a type of fabric from the Zhao Kingdom, and it is expensive; he naturally knows it.

But that this thing could develop economic means, and even cause the Zhao Kingdom to suffer a great loss of vitality, aroused his curiosity.

"I will wait to see your means!"

"This Da Qian is considered to have become lively because of you." Gao Tianlong said with deep meaning.

Prince Rong has not been solved yet, and Gao Yang already has the means to deal with the Zhao Kingdom; this speed is not fast.

Gao Yang asked curiously, "Grandfather called me here, is it because you are worried that Prince Rong will use this to make trouble in the court tomorrow?"

Gao Tianlong looked at Gao Yang and said indifferently, "Your father is not worried, let alone me!"

"Since you dared to drug him in public and kicked Wu Cheng, even if he makes trouble tomorrow, I think it won't be a big problem. I am not worried about this point."

"I called you here not for Wu Cheng's matter, but for some admonitions. You must listen well."

Gao Tianlong looked serious, and the majesty around him swept toward Gao Yang like a tide. Even though Gao Yang had a big heart and was used to big scenes, he still felt an indescribable pressure.

He also restrained his expression and looked straight at Gao Tianlong.

"Please admonish me, Grandfather."

"You took the silver from County Magistrate Du; this indeed cannot be counted as a big matter. Even if it were known by the Censor and impeached, you would be safe. Today's conflict in the Rouge Pavilion, many people in Changan are waiting to see the joke."

"But once the Order of Pushing Favors is out, and the weakening of the vassal states is out, even if Prince Rong bites you and doesn't let go, and you cannot respond, the Empress will eventually protect you!"

"Because the Empress needs your talent!"

"When your status gets higher and higher in the future, even if you are greedy again, the Empress will turn a blind eye, but this is because the Empress needs you to balance the six kingdoms."

"But once the Empress doesn't need you, and Da Qian is truly strong, this habit of corruption will become your way to death. The silver you have been greedy for all your life will also return to the national treasury. Do you understand?"

Gao Tianlong spoke slowly, his majestic eyes staring at Gao Yang.

This is what he wanted to tell Gao Yang when Gao Feng took out the tea box and he saw the silver today.

Accompanying the monarch is like accompanying a tiger; it does not allow for any carelessness.

Any emperor is far more terrifying and cold-blooded than what is seen on the surface.

"But has Grandfather ever thought, if I am not greedy, not lustful, a person without weaknesses and who frequently comes up with poisonous plans, how would the Empress feel at ease? How would she release power?"

Gao Yang looked calm and added, "A minister without weaknesses usually dies very miserably."

Gao Tianlong was shocked, "Could it be that your corruption and lust are all deliberately faked? The tea box matter, you also deliberately let the Empress know, feeling that you are good for her to use?"

Gao Tianlong looked surprised. If this were really the case, Gao Yang's scheming would be unfathomable.

Gao Yang shook his head, "That's not it. Corruption and lust are indeed my nature, but doing it for the Empress to see is indeed deliberate."

"Even entering the Ministry of Revenue, one is because Father is the Vice Minister of Revenue, and having someone in the family makes things easier; the second is that the Ministry of Revenue is oily."

Gao Tianlong: "..."

What an impeccable reason!

Gao Tianlong felt it was difficult to handle. With Gao Yang's talent, plus the Empress's decisiveness, Da Qian will definitely change.

But not being greedy, being an upright person, the Empress would not be at ease.

Being greedy, that is leaving a way to death.

Seeing Gao Tianlong's worry, Gao Yang couldn't help but say, "Grandfather doesn't need to worry. I was born cautious and have thought of several countermeasures."

Gao Tianlong's heart moved slightly, and he looked at Gao Yang curiously.

"First, after Da Qian is strong, without full certainty, I will be half right and half wrong, following the middle path, appropriately releasing water. As long as the seven kingdoms are still fighting and are in a balance, I will be fine."

Gao Tianlong frowned.

Compared to this kind of releasing water and the middle path, what he wishes for is Da Qian being strong, but not to the point where the cunning rabbit dies and the running dog is cooked!

"Is there a way to have the best of both worlds?"

"This naturally exists. My second method can have the best of both worlds, but it is a bit bold and I am afraid it will scare Grandfather."

Hearing this, Gao Tianlong looked unhappy.

"You brat, what kind of battle haven't I seen? Even if you threw plague corpses to the enemy, I would remain indifferent. You just speak boldly, what method can have the best of both worlds?"

Gao Yang coughed twice, "The second is to take down the Empress, conquer the Empress!"

"As long as the Empress is won over, and she is whipped every day, then there is no need to worry about the rabbit dying and the dog being cooked, and even the eldest son of the Gao family..."

Gao Yang gave Gao Tianlong a look that you understand.

Gao Tianlong's heart jumped, and in his mind, the image of Wu Zhao sitting on the dragon throne, looking down on all living beings, suddenly appeared.

He looked at Gao Yang with a complex expression.

This idea is more than just a little bold.

It is simply daring to defy heaven!

Seeing this, Gao Yang struck while the iron was hot, "Compared to the first two methods, my third method is not only a little bold, but also very criminal."

"Not to hide from Grandfather, I, a strategist, actually have some insights in terms of bewitching the hearts of the people..."

Gao Tianlong's eyebrows jumped. This expression of Gao Yang, even he was frightened.

"Be careful of walls having ears!"

He directly interrupted Gao Yang's words, and then, as if chasing away flies, ordered Gao Yang to leave.

"If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will break your legs!"

Even though Gao Tianlong had seen too many big scenes in his life, he didn't dare to listen to the second half of the sentence.

This thing, cannot be listened to.

Seeing this, Gao Yang had to leave with some regret.
