"Ye Wudao nodded, "Let's talk. "
Ji Kong said, "Actually, you might as well hang out with me. I can give you what Ji Youlan can give you, and I can even give you twice the amount. Besides, I hold the Ministry of Punishment. As long as you don't do something big in Shenxia, no one can hurt you."
Ye Wudao smiled meaningfully, "I'm afraid I don't need the eldest prince to protect me. Naturally, other people will protect me, and I have already done a few things. Maybe in your eyes, the eldest prince, it is a great event, right?"
Ji Kong's face changed, his gloomy expression flashed past, and then he smiled, "Not bad, not bad, although you and I are enemies, but I also admire you very much."
"Ye Wudao, do you know what your greatest skill is?"
Ye Wudao shook his head, "I don't know."
"It's just that you speak more directly and act more decisively, just like my father did back then."
"I dare not compare the power of the Holy One."
Ye Wudao quickly separated the relationship.
Ji Kong laughed loudly, "Is there anything I can't say? Back then, my royal father also went all the way to the throne. If he was indecisive, what would he use to get to the throne?"
"Eldest Prince, you should talk about something serious. Why did you ask me to come here?"
"Why don't you know?"
"I don't know."
Ji Kong smiled and said, "Isn't this obvious? I'm trying to win you over. After all, what's so good about Ji Youlan that you are willing to be loyal to her?"
Ye Wudao shrugged his shoulders, and said lightly, "If I was messing with you at the beginning, the situation might be different, but it's a pity that when I first entered Tiancheng, no one looked down on me."
At the beginning, Ye Wudao achieved the position of minister of the Ministry of Industry, and Ji Kong did not come to win him over. Now he still wants to win over Ye Wudao. It can only be said that it is too late, and Ye Wudao has to choose someone to cooperate with.
What he wanted was cooperation, not loyalty to anyone, and Ji Youlan gave him space to cooperate, and did not treat Ye Wudao as a courtier, and even gave Ye Wudao many resources of the Six Emperors' Palace for free.
Trust and cooperation are what Ye Wudao needs.
If he took refuge in Ji Kong, then with Ji Kong's personality, he might only be treated as a counselor, and would not give him much practical benefit at all.
In layman's terms, people like Ji Kong want the sheep to run away without grazing the sheep, while Ji Youlan has completely thought about it. On her side, as long as you do more things, the rewards will be richer, and you can't refuse to receive the rewards.
Sometimes Ye Wudao would not be able to evade the immortal yuan that Ji Youlan gave him, which is enough to show that Ji Youlan is still very generous. Only such a person can talk about cooperation, otherwise it would be a complete subordinate relationship.
In fact, Ye Wudao also thought about fighting for the throne for the Fifth Prince, but the Fifth Prince was similar to Ji Kong, and in the end Ye Wudao still chose Ji Youlan.
Ji Kong frowned, and said, "Ji Youlan has nothing good to do. Her family doesn't have many resources, so she can rely on them. Maybe only your town capital and that investment bank, and by the way, her Great Xia Chamber of Commerce."
"What's the use of her chamber of commerce, and what's the use of her people? Wherever the wind blows Liu Shangshu, he will go there. If the momentum is not right, think about it for yourself, Ye Shangshu, what are you left with?"
Ye Wudao smiled and said, "In the same way, I also want to say the same to Your Highness. Although His Highness is powerful, it is precisely because of his great power that he cannot control everyone under him. People who seem to be loyal to you, but..."
"If you are really loyal, then how can you be struggling every step of the way? The military department is far away at the border, but in the court, you are always tied with the second princess. The rise of the sixth highness is just an opportunity. With your deep background, you can also defeat her. Why..."
