The reunion was only short-lived, and eventually they had to separate. The old Marquis and Gu Jingzhi's grandparents had a serious discussion and decided that Gu Ye would lead thirty servants to stay with Ping'an to escort the Gu family, while Gu Chuancheng would protect the old Marquis and others. People went to the Northland first.
Kang Ping was born in the Arms Department and was good at making various weapons, especially firearms. In his previous life, he was framed by Cai Chengan and died in prison. Before his death, he gave the design drawings of the red cannon to the jailer who took good care of him. , and later the jailer dedicated the blueprint to the Sixth Prince. The Sixth Prince's army's combat effectiveness was so high that he could stand out in the battle for the right to inherit the throne and defeat the Ninth Prince in one fell swoop.
The reason why Gu Jingzhi saved him was because he was a wizard, so he ordered Kang Ping to follow the old marquis to the North to try to research and manufacture the red cannon as soon as possible.
However, Zhang Linggu refused to leave Caiwei no matter how much he was persuaded. Everyone looked at him with more scrutiny. Even the exiled criminals forgot their identity as criminals and became like a bunch of people. , chewing the roots of his tongue while walking. Rumors have spread throughout the streets and lanes of the capital that Dr. Zhang Linggu of Jishi Hall fell in love at first sight with the concubine of the Crown Prince of Zhongyong Hou Mansion. It seems that the rumors are true!
Li Ruijiu, a contemporary great scholar, former Imperial College Secretary and now an exiled prisoner, shook his head and sighed: "Under the bright sky, demons and demons are allowed to clamor. The Zhongyong Marquis Gu Jia is a superb marquis, and the Zhang family has been passed down for more than 200 years. From a medical family, the unscrupulous members of the family are so jealous of a young girl of the same age, it is simply immoral."
His eldest son Li Houyi was afraid that his father's remarks would be heard by the Gu family, so he stopped in front of him and whispered: "Father, don't look at or say anything that is inappropriate. My Li family is already behind bars. Please be careful what you say!" "
Gu Jingzhi has strong martial arts skills and excellent hearing. He has been paying close attention to all Li Houyi's actions. He smiled slightly after hearing the words of Li Houyi and his son, and said loudly: "Brother Houyi, Jingzhi thinks that uncle's words are very reasonable. My family is picking weeds." He is only nine years old, and for a grown man to covet him is simply worse than a beast."
After finishing his explanation, Zhang Linggu walked to the Li family's team and said, "I'm afraid my uncle has misunderstood Jing Zhi. I'll wait for my nephew to explain it to you."
We are not familiar with each other at all. Is it really okay to be so affectionate? The Li family father and son stared at each other for a while, thinking that Prince Gu might have been frightened out of his mind by being exiled.
The Li and Gu families belonged to two camps, and there was little contact between civil servants and generals.
Although the old marquis is a high-ranking marquis, he has resigned from military power for many years and is equivalent to the commander-in-chief of the Southern Military Region who has retreated to the second line. Li Ruijiu is the director of the Imperial College, a leader in the literary world, equivalent to the vice president of Peking University. The two of them have almost no relationship. The intersection can only be described as acquaintance and acquaintance.
His son Li Houyi had only heard of Gu Jingzhi's name as the number one scholar in martial arts before. He knew that he had the talent to govern the country through his literary and military skills, but he had never seen him at all.
Gu Jingzhi ignored the surprised expressions of the Li family and his son, and told Li Ruijiu in detail how his grandmother ordered the Yuanyang Book by mistake.
Li Ruijiu heard him say that in order to avoid the embarrassment of his grandmother and fulfill her love for her grandchildren, she would rather bear the notoriety herself. He was deeply impressed and praised: "Nephew Gu Xian is very affectionate and filial, and his heart is commendable. I have misunderstood you. Here I apologize to you!" After saying that, he bowed to Gu Jingshen.
Gu Jingzhi held up his hand and said, "Uncle, no, Li Siye is famous all over the world. I am very honored to see you in person today and receive your teachings!" He smiled with satisfaction. If he wanted to recruit Li Houyi, he must first Get rid of his father, the strategy of the previous life is still useful in this life!
He was feeling complacent when he reached a dense grove in front of him. Ji Kuo shouted: "Stop the team. The prisoners will rest on the spot. Brothers, please be alert!"
The prisoners were so tired that they sat down in large groups after hearing the order. Gu Jingzhi took Li Ruijiu's hand and said, "Uncle, come with me. The sun is shining brightly at this time. My nephew will take you to a shady place to rest."
The two of them found a cool place to sit down, and of course the Gu and Li families also gathered around.
Ji Kuo kept his word. The guards carried large water bags and broken pottery bowls and divided them into groups to give water to the prisoners. "Drink water! One bowl per person, no fighting over it, be careful of the official's whip!"
When we were at the gate of the city, many relatives and friends came to see them off, sending money, clothes, food, and even a few water bladders thoughtfully. The prisoners had been in high positions for a long time, but they also knew that the journey was difficult and they were reluctant to waste their time. Water, I looked at the water bowl with disgust. The previous person had just drank it, and it might still be stained with that person's saliva, so I took it and wiped the edge of the bowl and drank it.
The clear spring water in Miss Caiwei's space was inexhaustible. She looked down on the broken pottery bowl, let alone the water in the bowl, and shouted to Ping An: "Brother Ping An, do you have a water bag in your car?" "
Ping An's men, horses and motorcade were following the exile team. Ji Kuo asked the team to stop, and he ran over with two servants pushing a small wooden cart.
Hearing Caiwei's call, Ping An smiled and said: "It has been prepared for a long time." He ordered the servant, "Jiuyang, Xiao Shitou, come with me!"
The wooden cart was filled with things, and when it moved, it made a "creeping" sound. Everyone was stunned. How could this be done?
Ji Kuo did not dare to offend the brother of the future prince, so he could only turn a blind eye and comfort himself: "The Gu family will bring their own food and water. We have some left, so why not do it!"
Miss Caiwei came up to them and stopped them, "Brother Ping'an, don't go too far and make Master Ji's face look bad." Ji Kuo looked grateful after hearing her words.
Unexpectedly, she then said: "You guys wait here, I'll get the things." She took the water bag and then the food, and distributed it to everyone one by one.
There were differences when dividing things. Song Wanru and Fourth Young Master Gu Jingxing had food with added ingredients, while Ping An brought water.
The aunts and Gu Jingsi's were delivered safely.
The others, including Shen Wei's mother and daughter, were all close to each other, and of course they deserved better. She used the method of exchanging objects through space and replaced them all with things in the space.
Li Ruijiu was very knowledgeable, but he was pedantic and didn't know how to adapt. He knew how to secretly hide some banknotes and other things when others ransacked his home. He only focused on crying out for injustice. He had no bruises on his body. In the past few days in the prison, he had been eating black food. Wotou, drinking Wu Tu Shui, watched Gu Jingzhi holding a meat bun and eating it with gusto, which made him swallow his saliva.
He glanced away and warned himself in his heart: A man with lofty ideals will not drink water from a stolen spring, and an honest person will not be fed by others. But my saliva is about to flow out, what should I do?
"Uncle, the servant brought too many buns. My nephew, please help me share some of the buns, okay?" Gu Jingzhi deliberately made it difficult for him by holding four buns.
It's not an insulting charity, it's asking him to help eat the food that the servants brought too much! Li Ruijiu turned his head and glanced at the bun. He felt the meaty smell coming out of the folds and went directly into his nose. He couldn't stop drooling. He quickly looked at Gu Jingzhi's sincere face and quickly reached out to take it. A steamed bun, "That old man would be disrespectful!"
He put the bun into his mouth and chewed it a few times. He had never eaten such a delicious bun in his life. It was so delicious that he was confused!
