Yun Zixiang stopped and said to Lin Jinyue: "Jinyue! I still have some personal things to do. Why don't you go back first? I'll be back when I'm done."
"Do you need me to accompany you?" she asked. Although she didn't know what Yun Zixiang was going to do, she still supported her from the bottom of her heart.
"Need not."
"Okay then, go early and come back early"
After Yun Zixiang watched Lin Jinyue leave, he turned into another street and disappeared.
She received a letter from Gu Yu last night, and Duke Jing invited her to talk to her tomorrow to answer her unfinished promise...
Yun Zixiang came to a teahouse and the agreed place was Biyuan Tower.
Yun Zixiang explained the purpose of his visit, and a waiter led Yun Zixiang into a private box.
Gu Yu and Duke Jing are both in the box.
After Yun Zixiang entered, the waiter closed the door tightly. Yun Zixiang bowed politely and said, "A civilian girl has met Lord Jingguo and Lord Gu!"
"Miss Yun! No need to be polite, come and sit down." Gu Yu was pouring tea for Duke Jing at this time and looked at where Yun Zixiang was standing.
Yun Zixiang sat over, and Gu Yu also poured a cup of tea in front of her. The tea was rich in color, and the fragrance filled her nose. It smelled very good.
"Thank you!" Yun Zixiang took the tea and said to Gu Yu.
"Miss Yun, today is the day to fulfill your promise." Duke Jingguo only said these words at this time, and continued to sip his tea without saying anything else.
"Yes, in fact, the idea of the peasant women was to dig a canal. The peasant women went all the way to Beijing and found that Huaizhou has a lot of rainy season. They wanted to dig a road from Huaizhou to Xizhou, which not only solved the drought problem in the northwest, but also solved the flood disaster in Huaizhou. , and this canal is conducive to the transportation and economic development of the two places, so why not do something that benefits the people and the country?"
After hearing this, Cheng Su, Duke of Jingguo, quickly put down the tea cup in his hand and asked, "Have you told the second person about this?"
"Only the three of us know about this matter," Yun Zixiang said firmly.
After listening, Cheng Su nodded.
"But... Such a waste of people and money cannot be completed overnight. Miss Yun seems to have made it too easy." Gu Yu raised this question calmly.
Cheng Su was also concerned about this issue and looked at Yun Zixiang
"Although the project is huge, if it is completed, there will be many more beneficial things behind it, and the person who goes to build these two places must be you, Lord Jingguo."
"Why do you say this?" Cheng Su asked.
"The Holy One is very suspicious of you now. If Duke Jing is willing to lead his troops to build the building, I think the Holy One's suspicion will be eliminated, and the people in both places will also respect you."
Everyone knows that Cheng Su, Duke of Jingguo, defeated the Huns in succession and had outstanding military exploits. He was the number one family in the capital. Moreover, he had soldiers who were personally approved by the Holy Emperor. He was extremely famous and envied by everyone...
"It's a pity that Miss Yun is a woman. With such talent, it's a pity not to become an official." Cheng Su praised, his eyebrows relaxed a lot because of Yun Zixiang's words.
"Yes! There are such talented people. Duke Jing needs to appreciate them well in order to retain such talented people." Gu Yu said the icing on the cake beside him.
After hearing what Gu Yu said, he smiled and said boldly: "Okay! Miss Yun has helped me so much, so she should be well rewarded. I am investigating this matter of the Yun family, and I will definitely return the favor to the Yun family. A clean slate.”
"Then the daughter of the people would like to thank Duke Jingguo. However, there is one more thing that the people's daughter wants to ask for, which is to go to the palace with the Lord to meet the emperor." Yun Zixiang added, and after saying that, he also observed Cheng Su's eyes.
Cheng Su was silent for a while, and then nodded and said "Okay". He thought that this woman just wanted to take credit, and he would not argue with a woman, so he agreed after thinking about it.
Then he went out and asked Gu Yu to send Yun Zixiang back. When Yun Zixiang was about to leave, Gu Yu stopped him and said, "There is still one person who has not arrived yet."
As soon as Gu Yu finished speaking, someone pushed the door open. You could see the young man's delicate face, high bridge of nose, tight thin lips, and a bit of insouciance in his amber eyes. The person who came was none other than—— Chu Qian
Only then did Yun Zixiang know that Chu Qi'an had just arrived when Duke Jing Guo left. She probably avoided it deliberately, but it happened that she also had something to see Chu Qi'an. When he came, it saved her an extra trip.
"Sir!" Gu Yu nodded.
Yun Zixiang also said hello
After the three of them were seated, Yun Zixiang took the lead to break the deadlock and asked: "Sir! Can I go to the prison to see my father?"
"No!" Gu Yu said quickly before Chu Qian could speak.
He also explained the reason to Chu Qian: "Sir! The Yun family is in the midst of a storm right now. If you let the Yun family in, you might attract criticism and implicate your lord! This is inappropriate."
She was afraid that Yun Zixiang would think too much, so she said to her: "Miss Yun, this matter is embarrassing for you."
Yun Zixiang originally wanted to say something more, but after hearing that Gu Yu's point was indeed reasonable, he stopped pressing.
He was waiting for Chu Qian'an to speak. His eyes narrowed slightly. After thinking for a while, he said, "Let her see her!"
The customer's heart murmured: "What's wrong today, sir? In the past, this matter was all done with words."
He wanted to persuade him again, but when he saw the visitor's eyes turned towards him and his eyes became serious, he had to shut up quickly and finally uttered the word "Okay"
Yun Zixiang thanked Chu Qian repeatedly
