This time, the soldiers who went in to report came out quickly.
Coming out with him was a man dressed as a scribe.
Well, the standard style of Wei and Jin celebrities: moon-white long-sleeved robe, holding a feather fan in hand, and wearing wooden clogs on his feet.
When he walked out of the Yamen gate, it was as if he had just seen the carriage with the "Gu family" emblem on it.
Holding fists with both hands, he came closer in three steps and two steps.
"Yang Wei, the chief minister of a certain Liang Dynasty, met the third lady of the Gu family!"
"Your Majesty is busy with military affairs and has treated your distinguished guest so slowly. I hope Sanniang will forgive me!"
Yang Wei bowed deeply and made a full gesture.
"Well, Guangcheng is suffering from internal and external troubles, and the prince really needs to work hard!"
Gu Qingcheng said "it doesn't matter" without any politeness.
Haha, saying "I'm sorry" can be replaced by "It's okay", why?
Gu Qingcheng can "endure humiliation" for her big plan, but she will not always be "humble".
She is seeking cooperation, not trying to curry favor.
She didn't leave in a hurry because she really wanted something.
However, this does not mean that she will endure it forever. When it is time to show her claws, she will still be sharp!
Internal and external troubles?
Isn't this word an exaggeration?
Yang Wei's eyes flickered.
His name is Wangfu Changshi, but he is actually Chen Duan's counselor.
And for these literati who rely on their brains (words) to make a living, "alarmism" is also one of the necessary skills.
For example, if you want to join the service of a noble person, you must make an exaggerated statement as soon as you meet him: My lord, do you know that you are in great danger?
Well, first use words to scare the other person, and then take the initiative to offer suggestions, show your own value, and then get the other person's reuse.
Routine!
It’s all a routine!
But Yang Wei didn't expect that this little girl of the Gu family, who was only fourteen years old, was actually well versed in this.
"Gu Sanniang is joking!"
"Sanniang, please! Your Majesty has already hosted a banquet in the front hall!"
Yang Wei laughed and continued to invite Gu Qingcheng politely.
Gu Qingcheng didn't take the opportunity to take advantage of Qiao, she responded softly.
Before Yang Wei could say anything, the driver quickly brought the footstool.
Aman and three or four women soldiers quickly stood in front of the carriage door.
They are respectful but not disrespectful. They are obviously serving humbly, but they have a unique charm.
The whole set of movements is as smooth as flowing clouds.
Yang Wei narrowed his eyes, hmm, is this the servant raised by the aristocratic family?
Just as Yang Wei was observing secretly, the car door was opened and a delicate hand stretched out.
Regardless of the face, just looking at the hands makes people feel beautiful, fairy, and noble.
Then there was a woman wearing a Mihang on her head.
Slender figure and graceful figure.
Wearing a goose-yellow chest-length skirt and a Xiangfei-colored shawl, the dress gives off a pink and tender look.
Well, the fourteen-year-old girl is indeed pink.
Huh?
The third lady of the Gu family is a bit interesting.
She didn't deliberately wear clothes that "highlighted her imposingness", but stayed true to herself.
Is this really naive, or is your heart already strong enough that you don’t need external things to support you at all?
Yang Wei is worthy of being a naughty strategist. Not only does his mind work quickly, but his observations are also meticulous.
He remained calm and thought silently.
Ah Man, Ali and others helped Gu Qingcheng get out of the car.
Gu Qingcheng does not have a deliberately concave shape, and her etiquette standards are integrated into the depths of her soul.
She neither raises her head arrogantly nor hunches back with her breasts introverted. She just stands so casually, giving people a noble and inviolable feeling.
"As expected of the Gu family of Wu County!"
Six hundred years of heritage is really beyond the reach of ordinary people.
Yang Wei is not a son of aristocratic family, and his attitude towards the aristocratic family is rather subtle——
On the one hand, he has the same "admiration" as the rest of the world;
On the other hand, he also has a disdain for the decadent family members who regard horses as tigers.
Angry youth?
Hating iron but not steel?
Maybe a little bit of both.
However, at this moment, seeing Gu Qingcheng who was casual yet noble, Yang Wei suddenly realized: This is the real noble daughter of a noble family.
Her dignity comes not only from her surname, but also from the pride and nobility of her soul!
"Sanniang Gu, please!"
Yang Wei himself didn't notice that his attitude towards Gu Qingcheng had become very warm, even slightly "pleasant".
This is probably a subconscious reaction.
It was clear that the other party was just a little girl without hair extensions, yet he felt inexplicably humble and respectful.
Huoshui: ...It's normal. What you see in front of you is not just a cardamom girl, but the once all-powerful Queen of Heaven!
Gu Qingcheng followed Yang Wei into the Yamen, and then came to the so-called front hall.
Well, it's a courtyard at the back door of the lobby.
The yard is wide and the buildings are dilapidated.
There is no way, since ancient times it has been "officials do not build yamen".
King Liang was not an official, but he was a general, more rough and heroic than the civilian officials.
He does not seem to be a person who pursues enjoyment. He is still used to living in a dilapidated house.
Think about it, for these people who lead troops in war.
During the real war, I slept in mud pits, and having a roof to protect me from the wind and rain was already very good.
"Gu Qing pays homage to His Royal Highness Prince Liang!"
Gu Qingcheng came to the front of the hall, gathered her quilt and saluted.
She had already taken off her clothes, and she looked like a well-behaved little girl.
Chen Duan was so condescending that he could see the top of Gu Qingcheng's head when he raised his eyes.
Well, the little girl's hair is dark and thick, styled in a playful bun, and she doesn't wear any too luxurious or complicated jewelry.
When moving, the earrings do not move and the hairpin ring does not move.
So well groomed!
Just looking at this saluting gesture made Chen Duan feel inexplicably noble.
"No gift!"
Chen Duan nodded slightly, "Please sit down!"
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
Gu Qingcheng thanked him, then turned around and knelt down on the left side of Chen Duan's head.
She raised her head slightly, neither appearing rude nor arrogant.
Gu Qingcheng can always keep the balance just right.
But her angle was just right for Chen Duan to see her clearly.
"What a beautiful little beauty!"
Chen Duan's eyes flashed with surprise.
Everyone has a love for beauty.
Men also instinctively pursue beauties.
It's just a knee-jerk reaction.
But soon, Chen Duan calmed down.
As the Prince of Liang, Chen Duan has seen all kinds of beauties.
He will not be easily fascinated by sex.
Moreover, the little girl in front of me is too small. Although she is beautiful, she has not yet grown.
The most important thing is that this is Gu Qing and Gu Sanniang!
She is a woman who accompanied her grandfather to create a career in the wild land of Lingnan!
Even if Chen Duan doesn't regard Gu Qingcheng as his rival, he doesn't really regard her as a half-grown child!
Not to mention anything else, just her gaze under the city wall and her calmness outside the palace gate made Chen Duan realize: Gu Qing, this is not simple!
Before Yang Wei sat down at the table, he came close to Chen Duan and whispered a few words.
Chen Duan's eyes flickered.
"Domestic and foreign troubles? Haha, exaggerating and making things mysterious!"
Chen Duan was the king of Liang and had seen many "show off" literati counselors.
I also have a certain understanding of the routines of these people.
The little girl in front of me, even at such a young age, has actually learned this.
"Gu Sanniang, you have been here in Guangcheng for half a day. What do you think of Guangcheng?"
Chen Duan was a military general. Although he read the classics of saints, he looked like a Confucian general.
But deep down he is still used to being straightforward.
Besides, he brought Gu Qingcheng here just to cooperate with her.
There are some polite words that need not be said.
After the first two rounds of testing, Chen Duan was sure that Gu Qingcheng was no ordinary woman.
Since the other party is unusual, don't follow the old tricks and make detours.
"It looks like a cluster of flowers, but in fact there is an undercurrent!"
When Gu Qingcheng saw Chen Duan asking questions, he told the truth.
Chen Duan: ...You are so young, you really dare to say that!
"Oh? There's an undercurrent surging? Gu Sanniang, did you see it wrong?"
Chen Duan leaned forward, with a hint of teasing in his deep eyes.
He seemed like an adult teasing a child.
Gu Qingcheng didn't take it seriously and followed his own pace without answering the question, "My lord, you are governing Guangcheng according to the law of running an army."
Without waiting for Chen Duan to answer, Gu Qingcheng said first, "Well, just like at the city gate, the soldiers seem to be guarding the military camp."
"I follow orders and prohibitions! I am not afraid of power! I am so strict."
Chen Duan raised his eyebrows, oh, is the little girl starting to file a roundabout complaint?
“Isn’t it good to impose orders and prohibitions?”
Chen Duanxu was in a good mood, so he did not continue to sit in the posture, but changed his position and leaned his body on the table.
The whole person looked a little lazy.
"Okay! In the military camp, there are naturally strict rules and regulations and strict discipline!"
Gu Qingcheng nodded approvingly.
Chen Duan was waiting for a "but" from Gu Qingcheng.
Sure enough, Gu Qingcheng said, "But Guangcheng is not a military camp!"
Military control and civilian control are different.
When running an army, one must follow orders and prohibitions, and clear rewards and punishments;
When governing a place, we must pay attention to the principle that "the law is nothing more than human feelings"!
Governing a big country is like cooking small dishes!
It is impossible to truly "kill and decide".
Chen Duan was stunned for a moment: Guangcheng is not a military camp.
So, it’s not suitable to use the method of running the army?
That’s what I mean, little girl from the Gu family.
"Your Highness, I heard that you have read a lot of poetry and books, and you are a rare Confucian general."
Gu Qingcheng seemed to have changed the topic, and before moving on to the next topic, she gave Chen Duan a small pat on the back.
Chen Duan: ...Although I know that the other party is flattering me, I am still willing to listen to good things.
In particular, the person who praised herself as a "Confucian general" was the daughter of the Gu family.
Let’s not talk about the glorious history of the Gu family, but just the present. Gu Qing’s grandfather was the former Zhongshu Ling, and Gu Qing’s father was the former prince-in-law and a famous figure in the country!
The Gu family is a well-established scholarly family with numerous famous scholars and scholars.
Being able to receive praise from the Gu family, even if it is just polite official praise, makes people feel happy.
"Sanniang is so ridiculous! I don't dare to take it seriously!"
Chen Duan's facial lines have become much softer.
Gu Qingcheng changed the topic and asked, "Your Majesty is very knowledgeable. He must have read Chinese books."
"Qin II died, why?"
Chen Duan: ...This topic seems too big.
Moreover, he was a general who was feared by the emperor, but the little girl of the Gu family was discussing the collapse of a dynasty with him. There seemed to be some imperial skills in this.
