Su Wanying glared at her charmingly, and Gu Chen immediately stopped joking with her.
He was told to pick up the golden legs given by Li Chenggui and leave. He should go early and come back early after the meeting. He didn't like to sit on the stool of Fengtian Palace.
Bang hard!
I didn’t even add a soft cushion to make it look nice. It’s so uncomfortable to sit on.
Gu Shuning sent his father out, and Gu Chen casually asked his daughter.
"How did your mother learn to curl her lips?"
Don't tell me, she's quite pretty, if only she didn't have a big belly...
"Learned from Her Highness the Crown Princess." Seeing his father's curiosity, Gu Shuning hurriedly explained: "The Crown Princess was afraid that her mother would be bored at home during the New Year's Palace banquet."
"Besides, the Crown Princess is pregnant again, so it is not convenient for her to meet with the Queen and the Queen, but she feels bored."
"So a soft sedan was sent to pick up my daughter and mother. Zheng Guogong and his wife and their second master were also there. I don't know what happened."
"At the banquet, Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess spoke back to Duke Zheng five or six times."
Her mother thought the Crown Princess's appearance was a bit amusing, so she imitated her.
I see!
Gu Chen didn't say anything else, touched his daughter's head and got into the carriage.
Next year, Chang Mao and Feng Sheng should go on an expedition. It must be because of this?
But this was all someone else's business. Gu Chen opened the car curtain and looked at the gold in Gu An and the others' hands. In fact, his wife was right.
The ministers collected other money in private, but in the end they still had to deal with Lao Zhu.
He couldn't bear to avoid being accused of collaborating with the enemy and treason.
In fact, before Gu Chen and Li Jinglong arrived in Beijing, Lao Zhu already knew what they were doing and that they had received a sum of money from Li Chenggui.
It's just that it's not Daming's money, just take it, it doesn't matter.
The two people were called here just to find out the details more clearly.
Soon, Lao Zhu caught the key point, he looked at Li Jinglong and said.
"How do you know that Li Chenggui has half the military power of Goryeo?"
How did this kid know something that he didn't even know?
Li Jinglong was stunned for a moment, then pointed at Gu Chen and said, "Master Gu told me. When we were discussing the night before meeting Li Chenggui, Master Gu asked me to say this."
They said they were discussing countermeasures, but in fact they were just comparing lines.
And he was indeed very courageous. He followed Gu Chen's instructions without even thinking about it.
"Hmm~" Lao Zhu was very surprised and looked at Gu Chen: "Then how do you know that Li Chenggui holds half of the military power?"
He didn't know, and neither did the Lord. How could Gu Chen, a civil servant, know?
Gu Chen: "..."
Of course, this is what teachers estimate when studying history in modern times.
"I guessed it." But he couldn't say it directly. He could only give a passable reason: "I guessed it based on Li Chenggui's several battles and his official position."
With so many official positions and so many battles, they must be close to each other.
"Well, you are smart." Lao Zhu calculated with his hands behind his back for a long time, and finally nodded and said: "I'm afraid Li Chenggui will have to clean up people when he gets back."
He would definitely think that the cronies in his house had informants from the Ming Dynasty.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but laugh: "This Li Chenggui is still somewhat smart, but he looks down upon you too much."
He was originally worried that these two children would mess up the matter.
Unexpectedly, not only did it not happen, but the result was better than expected. Lao Zhu waved his hand and asked Li Jinglong to see him first, but only detained Gu Chen.
When Li Jinglong saw that His Majesty left Gu Chen behind, he couldn't help but feel a little sad.
But thinking that his father was still waiting for him at home, he had no choice but to leave first, but before leaving, he still curled his lips at Gu Chen.
Gu Chen: "..."
Why do you all like to curl your lips?
Lao Zhu saw his nephew's little actions and laughed secretly in his heart at how the child could not grow up, but he also began to plan for the child's future.
"This kid is pretty reliable. Xiao Gu, what kind of official do you think he is suitable for? How about helping his father in charge of the Imperial Army?"
This was his plan from the beginning. He was most optimistic about Jiujiang in this position.
Gu Chen said: "Your Majesty, I think that the young prince is more suitable for the position of Minister of Honglu Temple. In diplomacy, the young prince is extremely talented."
Get angry when you should be angry, laugh when you should laugh, and change your face faster than Sichuan opera.
Lao Zhu thought of his nephew's performance and mentally agreed with this statement.
But other than Jinglong, he couldn't think of anyone who would be able to rest assured that he would be in charge of the Forbidden Army.
Shaking his head, Lao Zhu gave up the topic for the time being, turned to look at Huang Jin behind him and said, "Since Li Chenggui gave it to you and Jiujiang, you can use it."
"Nowadays, the affairs of the DPRK and Central Government are very busy. You should take a rest for two days before returning to the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Ministry of Civil Affairs. Everyone is too busy to touch the ground."
That's it, there are a lot of things piled up.
Seeing that the court is busy now and needs the remaining ministers to work hard, I will give these two hundred taels of gold to Gu Chen to spend on himself.
Gu Chen: "...Yes, Your Majesty."
Who do you think is to blame? Isn't it still your fault for cutting off too many heads?
He originally wanted to visit Biao'er, but Biao'er asked Li Jin to send a message in advance, asking him to go back and spend time with his family first, without seeing him outside.
Tsk~
Biao'er is Biao'er, always considerate, kind and gentle.
However, Gu Chen was not in a hurry to go back. Instead, he went to the Wei Guogong Mansion to pick up his son.
His mother is about to give birth, and her children and husband naturally have to be with her.
The Duke's Mansion of the State of Wei.
"This kid is good at martial arts. Mr. Gu gave birth to a good son."
In just six months, Xu Da went from being reluctant at the beginning to being full of joy now, and his attitude toward Gu Chen was also kinder than before.
Gu Chen was very happy to be praised by General Xu Da.
"He's just a brat. Please don't praise me, lest he raise his tail."
Xu Daxiao was a literary person who spoke modestly. Because it was already afternoon, he personally led the way to the place where the children were studying.
Gu Xiu was sitting in the Xu family's private school, studying with Xu Miaojin, Xu Yingxu and Xu Miao'an, the fourth girl of the Xu family.
The child's eyebrows are serious, completely different from the way he fumbled around at home. Now he looks like a good student.
Xu Da smiled and said: "Master Gu, do you know why he is so good?"
Gu Chen looked at his well-behaved son through the window. He was completely convinced by Xu Da. He smiled and said to Xu Da.
"May I ask, sir, why is this?"
Xu Da can not only train the thorns in the army, but also take care of children who don't like to study?
"Because I told him that if he can write well and satisfy his husband, I will take him to visit the military camp."
Children must be taught in accordance with their aptitude, and beating, scolding and preaching alone will definitely not work.
You also have to know what he wants and what kind of person he wants to be.
Once you know it, just follow this direction and be patiently guided.
"What this child wants, I'm afraid only the father-in-law can give it to me."
Gu Chen was a little helpless. He was a civil servant, but he didn't have the ability to take his son to the military camp. He couldn't give the child what he wanted. No wonder he couldn't control it.
"The child has already made up his mind, Mr. Gu, please don't force it."
Xu Da was afraid that if he took the child back and would not send it back, the relationship between father and son would become tense, so he thought of giving his benefactor a few words of advice.
"Being a general is not necessarily dangerous. When this child grows up, our Ming Dynasty will be in peace and prosperity."
"Master Gu, do you think so?"
Why do people of this generation work so hard? Isn't it just so that future generations will no longer bleed and live in a prosperous age of peace and joy?
