"Okay! Since you said so, let's discuss the matter of the Beiyuan Mansion's mine lode."

The second old man didn't intend to go around in circles, so he said it bluntly.

"Second uncle speaks quickly, and the younger generation also wants to hear second uncle's opinion."

Su Yizhao nodded, Ming people don't speak secretly, and there is no need to hide it.

"I wanted to write to your grandfather to tell you about this, but your grandfather was so well-informed that even the old man in Beiyuan Mansion didn't realize it!"

The second old man originally wanted Su Yizhao not to intervene in this matter, but after thinking about it, he decided to find out about Su Yizhao first.

My own news is definitely not as well-informed as my elder brother's, so I might as well inquire about some news, it will only benefit me.

"Since your grandfather has sent you to deal with this matter, he must have told you his thoughts. What does your grandfather think about this matter, and what should you do in the future?"

Su Yizhao only thought it was funny, but she didn't expect that the second old man would turn her back on her.

"The younger generation listens to their grandfather and does not advocate taking this muddy water." Su Yizhao said casually.

The second old man's expression darkened immediately, and he knew that his elder brother was going to be timid again and refused to get involved.

"If that's the case, let's let this matter go!" The third old master snorted coldly, saying this on purpose, so as to paralyze the elder.

"But my grandfather also mentioned in the letter that the two uncles have been planning for the clan, and perhaps they will not willingly let go of such a good opportunity."

The turning point in Su Yizhao's words displeased the two old ladies very much. Doesn't this mean that they did not listen to the instructions of the head room and made their own decisions?

"However, grandfather also said that the Su family is now a pure minister in the court, and it is not appropriate to get too close to the princes. Standing in line too early is not good for the Su family."

Su Yizhao took a look at the second old man who looked worried, and then said: "The younger generation knows that you have got the news. This time, the fifth prince has a secret order and has come to Beiyuan Mansion to deal with this matter. However, the elders can know that the fifth prince has been in frequent contact with the You family recently. , have no intention of cooperating with our Su family."

Speaking of this, the second old man couldn't help but interjected: "Even if the fifth prince is interested in the You family, the You family alone can't afford it. This time the mine is iron ore. How many people want to take advantage of it? Our Su family You can show the utmost sincerity and satisfy all the requirements of the Fifth Prince."

"Yeah! It's just a cooperation, everyone benefits. Who can tell what will happen in the future?"

The third old master felt that the eldest brother was too cautious. The families in Beiyuan Mansion, no matter how big or small, had a family, and they all wanted to get in, but the eldest brother didn't want to.

Su Yizhao shook his head when he heard the words, the third old master was too naive.

This is the difference in thinking between being an official in the court and outside the court, the information is not equal, and the danger of court disputes is unknown.

"As long as you get on that boat, how can you let me get off? If you are angry with them, and when the time comes, they will hold the handle in their hands. Wouldn't you have to obey their words in the future? You simply can't help yourself."

For a rare time, the second old man did not refute Su Yizhao's words.

His eldest son is also an official of the imperial court, and he even communicates with letters on weekdays. How could he not know whether what Su Yizhao said was right or wrong?

But the eldest son had already sent a letter, and it was mentioned in the letter that despite the fact that the fifth prince was young and showed great love for money, the fifth prince's scheming was deep and terrifying.

He figured out the meaning from the eldest son's letter. The eldest son seemed to be very optimistic about the fifth prince, and had already stood in line behind his back.

If so, what reason does he have for not cooperating with the Fifth Prince?If he climbed directly to the fifth prince, wouldn't that help the eldest son?
Therefore, he originally planned to kill first and play later, and it would be too late when the elder brother found out, and they would have already been tied to the fifth prince by then.

However, the elder brother got the news from nowhere, and deployed it one step earlier than him, which caught him off guard.

The third old man felt ashamed when Su Yizhao refuted him, his face darkened, and he wanted to scold him.

But Su Yizhao said again: "This time the fourth prince came to Beiyuan Mansion, do you think he really came to greet the relatives? How do you know that he didn't come to pick peaches?"

Everyone was very surprised when they heard the words, even Su Yijue gave Su Yizhao a sideways glance. Su Yizhao didn't mention the real purpose of the fourth prince's coming to Beiyuan Mansion before.

"Is your news true?" The second old man asked eagerly.

Su Yizhao nodded, "It's basically sure!"

"However, the mantis catches the cicada, and the oriole follows." Su Yizhao continued.

"What do you mean?" The third old master was a little confused.

It wasn't just him, except for Su Yizhao and his party, everyone else didn't know why.

However, Su Yizhao smiled and didn't say much.

"The fifth prince is in such a hurry to contact You's family frequently, in order to consolidate his foundation before he leaves. As for our Su family, he will not cause trouble."

Su Yizhao gradually analyzed: "What's more, there is still the fourth prince here. He has to deploy quickly, and he will not do useless work at all. As far as our Su family is concerned, he has no blessing at all."

"Why did he live in our house before that? When the old man proposed to cooperate with him, he did not refuse."

The second old man's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, and then he suddenly thought of something, he slammed the table and snorted angrily.

"This is using our Su family as a gunman! The purpose is to confuse the public and cover up his real intention. His goal is the You family, but using our Su family as a shield is really a good plan."

It was only then that the second old man remembered that there had been an endless stream of visitors to the house during the recent period, and most of them came to inquire about this matter.He also said that their Su family can't just eat meat for themselves, but also let them drink some soup.

Thanks to the fact that he thought he was related to the eldest son, the fifth prince would take special care of them. It turned out that everything was just a cover.

Thinking of how he had been jumping up and down a few days ago, it was really a joke for the Luo family to take over this matter.

No wonder Master Luo has been talking about him all the time, maybe Master Luo already knew the inside story, right?

"So that's how it is! So that's how it is!" The second old man fell down in front of the table, unable to calm down.

He also remembered that the Fifth Prince had revealed the mine in front of him a few days ago, boasting and boasting to the Su family. His words were all hints, but he didn't make a clear statement.

He didn't expect that there would be times when he would be stupid. The Fifth Prince was just a boy, and he would be played around by the other party.

Looking at Su Yizhao who was sitting at the bottom, he was also a young man, and this matter turned out to be a duel between him and the Fifth Prince.

Are you really old?It's not as good as a young man who can calculate like this.

"Impossible? Then the fifth prince hinted at us so many times before, is it just to plot against us?"

The third old man still couldn't believe it when he saw his second brother acting like this.

"No! Why does the fifth prince value the You family so much? When it comes to those rich merchants in Fucheng, aren't the Ma family and the Sun family richer than the You family? The Ma family is still the top of the wealthy merchants in Fucheng!"

The second old man finally came to his senses, could there be other things that he didn't know about?So he immediately looked at Su Yizhao.
