"Brother, don't get me wrong," she explained quickly when she saw something strange in my eyes. "I'm not threatening you. You saved my life. You need to see holy things. No problem! I promise you! It's different from asking you to stay. Don't be too careful...
I was silent for a long time, clearing my throat, "Linglong, I have my life, and I can't interfere too much in the affairs of the Chu family. I hope you can understand...
" you don't have to interfere directly ", she said quickly," brother, you can be my military adviser. I will prepare a big house for you in Xijing. As long as you let me see you often and discuss something with you, that's OK. "
"You just feel like you need me now," I looked at her, "but in fact, when you're on top, I'm almost done with what I can do for you. You are the legitimate daughter of the Chu family. After becoming the master of the family, the Chu family is your dependence. It's enough for you to have your aunt and three uncles to assist you. I don't need an outsider to instruct you...
"but they all have their own ideas. I'm afraid I can't control them..."
"It's because they have their own mind that they can use it easily," I looked at her. "As the owner of the family, what you need to do is to balance all aspects of the power of the Chu family. As long as this balance is well maintained, your position is stable. You can only rely on yourself, understand? "
"Can I... can I do it?" She has no idea.
"You can do it!" I held her shoulders and looked at her seriously. "You don't know how to do it. I can tell you. You just need to remember what I said. You don't need me to be around you every day. Do you understand
She gazed at me for a long time and said softly, "what should I do?"
"After you are on the top, give the power to Chu Tao and your three uncles," I said, "let them deal with everything. If they handle it well, they have merit and you are wise. If you don't deal with it well, you will be wise to punish them. Your aunt and your three uncles have made contributions to you. Each of them has its own power, but they don't like each other, and none of them can accept anyone. You use both sides, but always be neutral and impartial, and let them check each other, so that your seat will be stable and no one can shake it. You are only 16 years old now. In ten years, you should hide your talents and cultivate your own people secretly. After ten years, you can take back all the power of the Chu family. "
"Cultivate your own people..." she looked at me, "Chu Xi?"
"Yes," I nodded, "if you can succeed in the top position, Chu Xi and Chu Rong are actually the biggest contributors. You should reward Chu Rong and put Chu XI by your side, but don't put her too seriously. Because you put too much emphasis on her, chutao and your three uncles will try their best to win her over. You quietly, a little bit of promotion of her, a few years later, she will be your most effective cadre. At that time, you will be full of wings, and Chu Tao and your three uncles will be loyal to you and dare not have any other thoughts. "
"Keep a low profile..." she nodded. "Brother, I understand."
I will smile, let go of her, "you are very clever, a little on the through, you will become a great master."
She blushed. "Really?"
"Really!" I'm sure.
She laughed sheepishly and nodded, "well, thank you, brother."
She took my hand and said, "if I can defeat Chu Huan today, we will go to the forbidden area early tomorrow morning. I will take you to see the sacred things."
"Linglong, that's the holy thing that your family has guarded for generations. Are you really not worried?" I asked.
"What are you worried about?" She didn't understand.
"Not afraid I will take it away?" I asked.
With a smile, she said, "the so-called holy thing is actually a big piece of sapphire...
" sapphire? " My heart moved.
"Well," she nodded, "it's a piece of sapphire, very big."
I immediately thought of the white tiger scroll in the white mountain temple. It was a piece of white jade, which contained mysterious power. The sacred object of the Chu family is a piece of sapphire, which contains the power of the dragon spirit. Can't help but think of Ye Qian's saying, "only when she is on the throne can you get the power of their family's protection from generation to generation..."
I seem to understand.
Seeing that I didn't speak, Chu Linglong sighed softly, "our Chu family has been guarding that jade for thousands of years, and we haven't found anything special about it. If you want to rob me, you don't have to save me at all. You can go to the forbidden area and move the jade away? Why bother? So, how can I be worried about you? "
I came to myself and laughed at her.
"It's settled," she took my hand and looked at me seriously. "Brother, I don't want you to stay. But if I need you in the future, will you continue to help me
"Good!" "I nodded," anyway, you have God foot skill, you have to go to Beijing to look for me. "She laughed and nodded hard, "Well!"
I gave her a smile and said, "aren't you afraid now?"
