Chapter 826 Erbao: Brother Dabao, we have all been cheated by our grandfather!
"Grandfather, I am absolutely certain!"
Erbao's attitude was extremely firm.
How could such a smart person as her become emperor?
Although the emperor of this Yun Dynasty has a bonus of luck, whether it is cultivation or doing anything else, it is very beneficial. But the problem is that while getting the benefits, you still have to work hard.
So, the problem arises.
Working is not scary, what is scary is that you have to stay in Chang'an City and cannot run around.
This world is vast and boundless, with many wonders.
Erbao really wants to go around and see the world.
But if he inherited his grandfather's seat, he would be trapped here.
"Erbao, you said Dabao should sit in this seat, but what if he doesn't want to sit here?"
After seeing Erbao's attitude, Mr. Xu's gloomy face instantly became amiable. He smiled and said, "Erbao, what if Dabao doesn't want to do it either?"
"That won't work!"
Erbao immediately jumped up and said, "Grandfather, you can't indulge Dabao."
"He is the eldest grandson of our Xu family. It is reasonable that this position should belong to Brother Dabao."
"Okay then, I'll go talk to him. If he's not happy about it, then you'll have to do it!"
When Mr. Xu said this, Erbao's face instantly drooped.
"Grandfather, this is not fair!"
"How is it unfair?"
"Even if my uncle and Dabao don't want to, don't we still have my father and my third uncle?"
"Erbao, you're usually quite smart, why are you so dumb right now?" Old Master Xu raised his hand and tapped Erbao on the head. "With your father's brain and personality, do you think he'll stay here obediently?"
"What about Third Uncle?"
Erbao felt that his grandfather's claim of wanting to love him was just a trap for him, but he had no evidence.
Old Master Xu chuckled and said, "Your Third Uncle, they say there's an order of seniority, but why is it never his turn to sit in this seat?"
“…”
Erbao really wanted to say that since the elders are all here, it is not the turn of the younger generations like them.
Unfortunately, Mr. Xu didn't give him a chance to speak.
"Erbao, either you convince your brother Dabao to take my place, or you come!"
"Grandfather, you are being unreasonable!"
Erbao glared.
Mr. Xu nodded seriously and said, "Yes, I am unreasonable. So what?"
"Whatever you say is what it is!"
Erbao understood it instantly.
What happened today was that his grandfather wanted to find someone to take his place. As for the candidate, his eldest uncle, third uncle, and his father were obviously excluded.
So, the candidate is either himself or his elder brother Dabao.
As the old saying goes, brothers should settle accounts clearly.
According to general rules, such a huge family business should be inherited by his brother Dabao. What's more, his brother Dabao suffered a lot for the Tang Dynasty.
It is reasonable and logical that the position of the master of the world should belong to Brother Dabao.
"Grandfather, please go and talk to Brother Dabao first. Be firm in your attitude and tell him that he is the only one who can do it."
Erbao looked at Mr. Xu seriously and began to give him advice.
Old Master Xu listened to Erbao's words and nodded from time to time.
I have to say, Erbao really has his own way of speaking.
Of course, it would be difficult to convince Dabao to take over just by saying these words. The key lies in the subsequent series of operations.
However, all these subsequent operations are on Erbao's side.
"You little bastard, you have a way!"
After listening to Erbao's plan, Mr. Xu nodded with satisfaction and said, "Then do as you say."
"But, let me be frank with you. If you can't take Dabao, then this position will be yours!"
"Don't worry, Grandfather, nothing will go wrong!"
Erbao raised his hand and patted his chest, "If Dabao doesn't take this position, I'll take it!"
"good!"
This is exactly what Mr. Xu wanted to hear.
Anyway, no matter if it was Dabao or Erbao, there would always be someone to take his place. And after he abdicated the throne, he would naturally be free.
Old Master Xu really wants to see this magical world.
After Erbao left the palace, Mr. Xu arranged for someone to call Dabao over and clearly stated the purpose of calling him over.
"Dabao, they say a son pays his father's debts!"
"In this matter, it's your father who is dishonest, but no matter what, you have to take the lead!"
"Grandfather, I can't do it!"
After listening to what Mr. Xu said, Dabao quickly waved his hands and said, "You know, I'm a little stupid and can't do these things."
"Grandfather, if you insist on me taking your place, I'll probably lose this kingdom in no time!"
"Don't worry, it won't happen!"
Old Master Xu smiled slightly. "Your father, your second uncle, your third uncle, and they're all here. Besides, you can definitely let Erbao take care of all the following matters!"
"Think about it, you're the emperor, Erbao is your brother, you have to ask him to do your job, right?"
"Grandfather, why don't you let Erbao take your place?"
Dabao asked directly in return.
Old Master Xu chuckled and said, "Dabao, about this, Grandfather went to Erbao, but he wasn't happy about it, saying there's always a hierarchy of seniority. Besides, you made such a great sacrifice for the Tang Dynasty back then. If Grandfather had passed the throne to Erbao, what would the world say about him?"
"Can you bear to watch Erbao being targeted by the whole world?"
According to Erbao's plan, these words must be said by Erbao himself.
However, Mr. Xu made a slight adjustment to Erbao's arrangement. The result of the adjustment was naturally to throw the two brothers, Dabao and Erbao, into the pit together.
"Dabao, managing a country is really not difficult. If you don't understand something, just ask the people below you, preferably Erbao."
"You can even let Erbao become a prime minister or something."
"In a word, it means being willing to delegate power."
"It was pure luck that our Xu family was able to obtain this kingdom. If the people become dissatisfied with us in the future, then we will lose this kingdom."
"You don't need to feel any pressure at all."
"Grandfather taught, and grandson understood!"
Dabao is a simple and honest man after all, and he doesn't have as many tricks as Mr. Xu.
So, half a month later, Old Master Xu abdicated the throne to Dabao.
The first thing Dabao did after ascending the throne was to appoint Erbao as prime minister to be in charge of all matters in the court.
"What?!"
Erbao was stunned when he received the decree.
Then, he understood.
"Brother Dabao, what did your grandfather tell you?"
Erbao found Dabao and asked his questions directly.
When he heard what Dabao said, he rolled his eyes and said, "Brother Dabao, we've all been tricked by our grandfather!"
"What do you mean?"
