Chapter 1081 The Madam is Very Fun
Playing with human nature and playing with power.
Within 24 hours of arriving at Guo's residence, Lei Zhen had figured out everything clearly.
Whether it was Guo Tianyang, the most powerful man in the Guo family, or several wives who wanted to compete for the heir for their sons, they were all played in his hands.
"Mr. Lei."
Guo Tianyang walked in and bowed to Lei Zhen.
"Tianyang, you came at the right time."
"Mr. Lei, please give me your instructions!"
"Don't be so reserved. Sit down."
"yes!"
After sitting down, Lei Zhen took out a cigarette and lit it, then naturally crossed his legs, acting like a host.
The way Guo Tianyang is addressed also reveals his social class.
The other person was in his fifties, but he called him Tianyang, as if he was calling a junior.
But Guo Tianyang has no objection to this point, because age means nothing compared to class.
When it’s time to call someone “big brother”, call them “big brother”; when it’s time to call someone “dad”, call them “dad”.
"Lü Qing's son is tentatively designated as the heir. After all, he is the eldest son and grandson. Otherwise, there will be criticism. But under the current circumstances, you need to take over temporarily and complete the transition."
"Of course, it's up to you to decide when the transition is complete, but you must support her son as the heir."
Hearing this, Guo Tianyang's eyes were filled with joy.
What he wants is this transition. There are many things that can be done during the transition period, such as the heir making a very serious mistake that endangers the survival of the family.
"Han Yuechun's son, Guo Ziyang, withdrew from the race for the succession. He left last night and won't be back for several years."
"Her family has no objections and has given up the fight for the heir. They will take her back after the funeral."
Guo Tianyang was overjoyed. The eldest son was the heir. If the second son left, what about the third son?
He suppressed his emotions and continued to listen carefully.
"Xi Chufeng's brother has been transferred to my place as a personal bodyguard, and his daughter will also stay with me. She and her son will continue to stay at the Guo family. After all, sometimes it's not convenient for you to talk to Lu Qing."
"Yes, sir!"
"As for Liu Yujing...she will leave with her son. You don't have to worry about her. Do you have any objections?"
"Sir has made very detailed arrangements, Tianyang has no objections!"
Of course he had no objection. Lei Zhen had already completely cleared the way for him to become a vassal king, and there would be no obstacles.
Lu Qing's son is the nominal heir. The most difficult Han Yuechun gave up the fight and his son has left.
The fourth child, Xi Chufeng, does not have much influence himself, but staying in the Guo family with his son can restrain Lu Qing at critical moments.
There is no need to talk about Lao Wu, he is already Mr. Lei's man.
Besides, her son is too young and poses no threat to her. Even if he grows up, the overall situation here will be determined.
All problems have been solved. Maybe not perfectly, but being able to get it done in a very short time is also an art.
"Is there anything else you need to add?" Lei Zhen asked again.
"No, everything is subject to your decision." Guo Tianyang was convinced.
He was still thinking about these issues yesterday, because his eldest brother's four sons were indeed very troublesome. Even if one was crippled, the other three would still be justified.
If he wanted to control the Guo family, killing would be an option, otherwise he would not be able to maintain his position.
Unexpectedly, the new emperor solved all the problems in just one night.
As for what happened last night, it doesn’t matter which sister-in-law slept with the other. Their husbands are dead anyway, so it doesn’t matter who they end up with.
It is better to follow their husbands, it is their blessing.
"By the way, sir, there is my sister-in-law in the Buddhist temple in the backyard."
"Although the eldest sister-in-law's presence is weak, she has a high prestige in our Guo family."
"When my eldest brother was around, he was very decisive and wanted to kill people several times, but he was always persuaded by my eldest sister-in-law. So many people are very grateful to my eldest sister-in-law."
The other four rooms have been settled, but there is still Guo Tianlin’s wife.
He is not aggressive and has a kind heart. He has saved people from the butcher's knife many times. He can definitely be regarded as a living Bodhisattva of the Guo family.
He is almost invisible on weekdays, but is definitely the most difficult one to deal with.
"This is a good man and a good wife." Lei Zhen nodded and said, "My wife is the same. She has a very high prestige because she can save people."
He was talking about Shu Jin, who was in charge of the imperial capital and was like a living Buddha in the eyes of everyone.
When Lei Zhen was seeking revenge, he was really murderous and would wipe out entire families at will, leaving no one alive from top to bottom.
If it weren't for this lady, the number of people who died from south to north and from east to west would have been at least several times the original number, so much so that the heads of each family worshipped her as a bodhisattva.
Shu Jin can keep those whom Lei Zhen wants to kill; Lei Zhen cannot keep those whom Shu Jin wants to kill.
"Mr. Lei, what do you think we should do?" Guo Tianyang asked in a low voice.
"Men want to kill, but they must first establish a bad reputation; this is the facade; women want to be kind, saving people from the knife; this is the essence." Lei Zhen took a puff of his cigarette and said, "Only in this way can we maintain balance. We must always leave some hope for those below us, otherwise things will backfire."
He didn't directly tell us what to do, but instead gave us this reasoning.
If you do great things, you will have to bear a bad reputation. There is no need to gild yourself to become a good person and then let others do all the bad things.
Anyone who is unwilling to bear a bad reputation will eventually suffer backlash. This is the lowest level of means and will not win people's hearts at all.
The more advanced ones are to place a living Buddha at home, and act as evil as they want. At critical moments, the living Buddha at home will play a crucial role.
Save people and win their hearts.
No matter where the heart is, it cannot escape the hands of husband and wife.
Therefore, Lei Zhen never conceals his evil deeds, just to scare people; but he also infinitely publicizes Shu Jin's goodness, forming a stronger control over those below him.
This thing is the most powerful imperial technique!
Zhu Yuanzhang was in charge of killing, while Empress Ma was in charge of saving. All the civil and military officials in the court understood one thing: Empress Ma was Zhu Yuanzhang's scabbard.
So when Queen Ma died, everyone cried, and almost all of their tears were sincere, because the scabbard was gone and there was no one to protect them anymore.
This is indeed the case. After losing Empress Ma, Zhu Yuanzhang really went crazy and killed people. No one could persuade him, and no one dared to persuade him.
"I'll go see the Madam." Lei Zhen stood up and said, "She is a mistress worthy of respect. We must treat her with courtesy no matter what."
"Yes, sir, please follow me."
“…”
Lei Zhen didn't intend to go too far in dealing with the eldest lady. He planned to persuade her as much as possible.
It’s not that he is kind-hearted, but once the eldest lady is touched, the Guo family will inevitably be in chaos.
Although killing can stop chaos, he does not want to consume the strength of the Guo family at this time, and he does not want to become the target of assassination by some people in the Guo family.
This principle is like if someone kills Shu Jin, those whose lives she saved will definitely take revenge at all costs.
As long as one is a human being, there is a scale in his heart.
If someone saves your life when you are in despair, you must eventually repay the favor.
Human nature is evil, and human nature is simple!
The eldest lady is very good at having fun, and fortunately she got a lot of information.
