"The reason why I came to attend the rally again is because I was entrusted by the Duwei Mansion."
Shangguan Xiu said seriously.
"Oh" Tang Yu was startled when he heard this.
He couldn't tell that Shangguan Xiu was still from the Duwei Mansion.
Shangguan Xiu said: "Your Highness" "I said, we get along as friends now, you don't have to call me Your Highness.
How old are you?"
"eighteen."
"We are the same age, I was born in April."
"I'm August."
"Then I'm older than you.
I'll call you Axiu, and you can call me Brother Tang."
Shangguanxiu's concept of hierarchy was not strong to begin with.
Since Tang Yu said so, he readily accepted it.
He said: "I am not from Duwei Mansion, I just have my name in Duwei Mansion."
He told the story of how Huadie's identity was exposed yesterday and Duwei Mansion came to him and asked him to do things for Duwei Mansion.
Tell Tang Yu again.
"So that's it."
Tang Yu chuckled, shook his head and said, "No one can enter the Duwei Mansion just by making a meritorious service.
Everyone recruited by the Duwei Mansion needs the personal approval of the father.
Cheng Qi's promise that you can join the Duwei Mansion in the future is just an excuse for him to ask you to do things.
He does not have that much right to summon you to the Duwei Mansion. " What a cunning Cheng Qi.
All the promises he made in front of him turned out to be lies.
Tang Yu continued: "However, although you can't borrow money from the government, it's not bad to have your name in the Duwei Mansion."
He changed the topic and asked: "Axiu, I want to hear your true views on the student assembly. ” Shangguan Xiu said sternly: "I thought the student gathering was just to vent dissatisfaction, and it was unlikely to be a big success.
If we really want to abolish the aristocratic system, the student gathering should be more secretive, carefully select like-minded people, and make long-term plans.
After ten years, Even after decades of hard work, it will gradually form a huge force of its own in the DPRK.
Only in this way can it be possible to successfully subvert the DPRK and implement reforms. " Tang Yu listened carefully, and when Shangguan Xiu finished speaking, he looked shocked.
After a moment, he laughed and said: "Fortunately, you are not the organizer of the rally, otherwise, you will become the number one enemy of the imperial court in the future. " "I" "Your idea is to implement reforms from top to bottom.
My idea is the same as yours."
Seeing Shangguanxiu looking at him without blinking, Tang Yu said with a bitter look on his face: "The nobles are greedy, and the officials protect each other and exploit each other."
The people are living in dire straits.
Now the rebellion is spreading.
Not only have rebellions broken out in every county, but they have also reached the capital.
Although foreign enemies are secretly sponsoring and fanning the flames, in the final analysis, the problem lies with me, the nobles, who are the source of the chaos.
I want to reform, but I can't. , alone and alone.”
At this point, he sighed softly, feeling that the topic was too heavy.
Tang Yu changed the topic, smiled at Shangguan Xiu, and asked: "Shangguan's surname is not common, Axiu, what is your ancestor?"
Shangguan Xiu replied: "The ancestor is Shangguan Yuanwu."
"Marquis Wuwei, one of the founding heroes of the country" "Exactly" "Then how come you are from Zhenjun?"
"The ancestor Shangguan Pingnan was punished by the emperor for practicing forbidden martial arts, and the Shangguan family was also sent to Zhenjun."
"Just because of this little thing" "Yes."
"For the Shangguan family's contribution to the Feng Kingdom, the punishment given by the late emperor was too severe."
Tang Yu shook his head and said.
His words touched Shangguan Xiu's heart, and he felt sad for it.
Tang Yu leaned over and patted him on the shoulder and said, "Axiu, since you are a descendant of the Shangguan family, you are not an outsider to our Tang family.

I hope you can help me."
Shangguanxiu met Tang Yu's gaze and asked, "What does Your Highness want me to do?"
Tang Yu's eyes flashed, and he said: "I need someone to help me collect evidence of the crimes of the ministers.
If I implement reforms in the future, abolish the privileges of the nobility, and ban the noble families, this will inevitably affect the interests of the ministers.
They will They will definitely join forces to oppose it, but as long as I have evidence of their crimes, they will have to compromise and support my reform. " Shangguan Xiu said: "However, he is just a small person, so I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to shoulder such an important responsibility."
Tang Yu said disapprovingly: "The more inconspicuous a person is, the easier it is to collect criminal evidence and the less likely he is to be suspected.
The most important thing is that I can trust you."
He looked straight at this.
Shangguanxiu asked: "Axiu, are you willing to help me?"
It can be seen that Tang Yu is not joking with him.
He really wants to help him collect evidence of the crimes of the officials, but how can a person be so capable?
He doesn't think he can do this, but he can't Reject Tang Yu.
What is his purpose in staying in Shangjing?
Does he still want to recover Pan Mengjun?
Of course not, he has only one purpose, to get ahead.
Now that Tang Yu has invited him, isn't this an excellent opportunity for him to get ahead?
Isn't it better to just take orders from King Yu than to take orders from the Duwei Mansion?
Guan Jian is, he is not in name.
Thinking of this, Shangguan Xiu no longer hesitated.
He stood up, stepped in and saluted, and said: "I will definitely do what His Highness asked me to do, and I will do my best to help His Highness do it well."
"Very good, I really found the wrong person."
Tang Yu pointed to the jade token in Shangguan Xiu's hand and said, "Take this jade token with you.
If you encounter danger in the future, this jade token will be enough to protect you." " Although Tang Yu is gentle and kind-hearted, he is not a person without great ambitions.
He also wanted to inherit the throne and realize his ambition, but he was too short of people of his own.
In the civil and military circles of the entire dynasty, there were really very few people who were inclined towards him.
Most of them were just grassroots.
It was impossible to count on whichever side the wind was strong and which side would fall.
And he was not a person who liked to take care of his followers.
This had nothing to do with him.
It was related to his character.
He placed too much emphasis on etiquette and avoidance of suspicion.
He felt that as a prince, if he kept a large number of retainers in the palace, he would be suspected of being disobedient and treason.
The prince should lead by example and set an example for the civil and military officials of the court.
As a prince, he was very cautious and walked on thin ice.
It was precisely because of this that the current emperor Tang Peng loved his second prince Tang Yu very much and had the plan to abolish the eldest son and establish a younger one.
Tang Yu avoided suspicion, and at the same time won his father's love and trust, but he had to do things, and he had to use people to do things, and he just lacked people he could trust.
Especially recently, this feeling of powerlessness has been particularly aggravated.
Since he attended the student rally, he clearly understands where the shortcomings of the current situation are, but he can't do anything.
At this time, Shangguan Xiu appears, which makes Tang Yu had the idea of taking him for his own use.
Tang Yu was thirsty for talents, and Shangguan Xiu was also looking for an opportunity to get ahead.
When they met, they hit it off.
Of course, Tang Yu's intention to collect criminal evidence of hundreds of officials was not entirely for the purpose of promoting reforms in the future.
He also had his own selfish motives, but it was just difficult to express them.
Shangguanxiu was overjoyed when he heard that Tang Yu gave him the jade token.
The jade token from Prince Yu's Palace was more effective than the token from Lieutenant's Palace.

Having this jade token meant that he would be from Prince Yu's Palace in the future.
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness.
Shangguan Xiu will remember it in my heart."
Tang Yu smiled and said: "Although I am a prince, I have no friends.
Axiu, you can be regarded as my first real friend."
Until Shangguan Xiu said goodbye to Tang Yu and returned to his home, Tang Yu's words were still echoing in his mind.
It was hard to imagine that the dignified prince actually regarded him as a friend.
For this reason alone, Shangguan Xiu was willing to go through life and death for Tang Yu.
He is from Zhenjun County, and his character with a clear sense of grudges and grudges is implanted in his bones.
He will remember the bad things others do to him and will definitely repay them double.
He will also remember the good things others do to him.
Heart, the rewards will be doubled in the future.
Shangguan Xiu still didn't realize that his encounter, acquaintance, and rapport with Tang Yu meant that he had stepped into the vortex of the struggle for the throne.
In this whirlpool, there will only be one winner, one person will achieve enlightenment, and the chickens and dogs will ascend to heaven, while there will be many losers, and the fate that will follow is to fall into the abyss and never recover.
Shangguanxiu's choice to side with Tang Yu was tantamount to tying his wealth and life to Tang Yu alone.
And this is a fight that can only be won but not lost
