The Rebirth of an Ill-Fated Consort

No, the elder Wang Ge and Prime Minister Qiu had always secretly supported Ye Pei, but now the emperor treats the two princes in the cold, and Ye Li's team is getting stronger and stronger, but Ye Pei hasn't moved at all. The ministers who defected never offered any temptations for benefits, and those people gradually disappeared after coming and going. Elder Wang Ge and Prime Minister Qiu are also big forces, and it looks like they have already taken refuge in Ye Li. More and more people on their side are leaving, and Ye Li is not in a hurry.

"Your Highness," Chaoyang said anxiously, "Elder Wang Ge and Prime Minister Qiu are obviously your people, but they still left like this. This is really too much to tear down the bridge."

Ye Pei smiled, but was unmoved. Although Mingyue was very puzzled in her heart, she knew that this young man was definitely not a dull person. His scheming and forbearance were beyond ordinary people's imagination. There must be a purpose for doing this, so she said: "Your Highness doesn't seem to be worried at all."

Ye Pei finally finished writing the last stroke, and then he let out a long sigh of relief, put down the pen, looked at Mingyue and said, "What doubts do you have?"

Ye Li's attitude towards her is stricter than towards Chaoyang, because she belongs to Xiao Shao, but he treats her more seriously than towards Chaoyang, because there are still many things she needs to do, and she is agile and capable of doing things better. it is good. Hearing this, Mingyue knelt down, and said: "I don't understand why His Highness doesn't take the initiative to recruit talented people, and he doesn't know how to lure people who come to join him, let alone understand that at this juncture, the Eighth Prince moves frequently, but His Highness only Stay in the house and don't shoot."

"You have too many questions." Ye Pei looked at her and said slowly, he played with the finger wrench in his hand, and suddenly smiled: "However, I am in a good mood today, so I can answer you. It's just that Xiao Shao's people can't even answer you." I don’t know anything about this, it’s really an eye-opener for me.” Ye Pei always uses different methods to hurt Xiao Shao when he catches an opportunity, Mingyue has heard it a lot, just think it’s a child’s vindictiveness, then she won’t Really take it to heart.

Seeing that Mingyue's expression remained unchanged, Ye Pei was not angry, and seemed to feel a little bored, so he coughed and said, "Sages are not recruited on their own initiative, do you think that if I want to compete with Ye Li, the one behind me who needs support most Who is it, a sage?"

Mingyue didn't speak. At any time, no matter whether it is to seize the throne or not, a Mingjun will always try to recruit talents. A talented person is naturally the monarchs are vying for it. Ye Pei smiled lightly: "Wrong, virtuous talent, the reason why a virtuous talent is a virtuous talent is to be appreciated by a wise king. This is not a peaceful and prosperous age, nor is it a rule of the world. This is a struggle for life and death. If you are not careful, you will be satisfied." It’s a gamble that loses everything, I think talent is important, but it’s far less than ambition.”

"Ambition?" Mingyue asked in a voice.

"Ambition." Ye Pei sat on the chair. He was thin and underdeveloped. It was not suitable for him to sit on a large chair. However, the long sleeves and gown flowed down from the chair and covered the ground. The innumerable laziness made Mingyue feel a little dazed for a moment, and felt that the person sitting in front of her was not a young man who had not yet reached the crown, but an adult wise man.

"A thin hungry wolf and a well-trained hunting dog," Ye Pei said lightly, "In the happy days when there is no need to fight for anything, a smart hunting dog is certainly good, but when it comes to snatching, murdering and gaining , I'm afraid it would be much better to bring a thin hungry wolf. Your so-called talented people are hunting dogs, and ambitious people are hungry wolves. What I have to face is a life-and-death battle, blood and blood. The fiercer it is, the more beneficial it is to me. You can use meat to attract hunting dogs, but you can never use meat to attract the hungry wolf, because what it wants is to kill the other party."

Mingyue was silent for a while, then asked: "Hungry wolves are ferocious, but in the future they will inevitably develop animal nature and devour their masters."

"There won't be that chance." Ye Pei said.

Mingyue was stunned, only to hear Ye Pei's voice from above her head: "After the prey dies, there is no need for hungry wolves to exist. Naturally, they want to find an opportunity to kill them."

Hearing this, Mingyue couldn't help trembling, she didn't expect this young man to be so decisive and so easy to say what he said so cunningly. Although these words are despicable and cruel, they are indeed the best beginning of an emperor's road. She was surprised that Ye Pei had such courage, but he was still so decisive. Ye Pei glanced at the absent-minded Mingyue and said: "Ambition is only used to deal with the enemy. If he also has ambitions for my things and secretly covets them, his ambition will be wiped out forever."

Chaoyang stood far away, and Ye Pei's words fell into her ears verbatim. She couldn't help feeling nervous, and suppressed the fear in her heart. She always knew that the thirteenth prince was not simple, but Knowing that his mind and skills have far reached the point of a future prince, his age is not a defect at all, and it will even become an excellent cover.

"Then why does His Highness not offer a price?" Mingyue said, "If there is a price, wouldn't it be easier for careerists to be recruited?"

"How do you think my power compares with Ye Li's?" Ye Pei asked.

Mingyue was startled, and soon came back to her senses. She knew that Ye Pei was a person with a clear mind, and it was meaningless to tell lies, so she said honestly: "The power of the eighth prince is even better."

"That's right, his power is even better. I set a price. Once he knows the price, he just needs to mention it, and it will be fine. With his power, he can do this. Those are my prices. Those who are tempted will definitely follow up when they see a higher price. On the contrary, wouldn’t it be better to sell a priceless treasure?” Ye Pei smiled slightly: “Let them never know their own value, and they will always be interested in the future. If you have an expectation, you will work harder. These people who are bought for priceless treasures are something that Ye Li will never be able to buy with tangible price tags."

Mingyue half-understood, only to hear Ye Pei say again: "You think Ye Li has more and more followers now, do you know that this is not a good thing for him?"

Mingyue nodded, then shook her head again.

"The same bargaining chip, divided between two people, is much more beneficial than four people. There are many people behind Ye Li, but the more people there are, when Ye Li gets what he wants, the more credit everyone will share. Small. On the contrary, there are not many people behind me. If I succeed in the future, those people will get more benefits. In other words, the people standing behind me are all driven by the big interests. People who are driven by interests will never be moved by Ye Li's small interests. Because there is no price tag, they will have a gamble because of their own efforts. Have you ever seen a gamble halfway through? People? Generally not, the people behind me, everyone has the intention of gambling, so they are the most stable part."

Mingyue was enlightened when she heard it, but she was a little surprised and confused. She looked at Ye Pei and said, "But Mr. Wangge and Prime Minister Qiu..."
