Gu Mingxiu didn't expect that Nan Jiang could really invite him.
He couldn't see his surroundings clearly and wanted to get out of bed to see the ceremony, but was stopped: "No need."
Unable to tell who was who, Gu Mingxiu wanted to ask.
Then he heard: "My master, the regent you want to see has not come. I am his personal attendant and the commander-in-chief of the army. My name is Huo Ying. Are you... Gu Mingxiu, from the Gu family in Jiangnan?"
Gu Mingxiu nodded, Huo Ying was a little unbelievable.
During the day today, he told his master that Gu Mingxiu had brought Jiang Zhaixing to the capital.
Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, Gu Mingxiu... the person who gave King Qi his eyes was actually Gu Mingxiu.
Gu Mingxiu was not a fool, and he probably knew what this silence meant.
But he also knew that meeting Huo Ying was actually the same as meeting the regent.
However, he did not explain it first. He just seized this opportunity and said: "The floods in the south of the Yangtze River are serious, and there are countless casualties. Officials fish for money when they have nothing to do. Now that something has happened, they are the fastest ones. I know, these things are compared with those It's not a big deal, but I can't sit back and ignore the suffering in my hometown. I can't bear to see those children being washed away, their parents heartbroken, and their families destroyed, because I am also one of them."
"In the case of floods, it is not that we have not mobilized grain and grass from various counties and opened warehouses to release grain and distribute it steadily. It will be in vain for the people below to line their own pockets. The most important thing is to control the water. Purging the officials will benefit the future. My master, this matter I have already said that I will not hide it from Young Master Gu. My master will set off today. He will conceal his identity and go to the south of the Yangtze River in person with food, grass and money. Whenever he encounters corrupt officials on the way, he will clean them out and replace them with new ones. "
If people's hearts are not enough and their greed is endless, corrupt officials cannot be killed and driven away.
What the Zhou Dynasty's annual cleaning can guarantee is that the officials who are close to the imperial power will be clean, while those who are far away will be difficult to control.
This time, Master Jiu was able to replace all the officials with problems on this road with their own people.
When he went to Xizhou, he had already started cultivating people.
It takes ten years to educate trees and a hundred years to educate people. Talents do not grow overnight.
These five years of training are enough to put those people in a position far away from the center of imperial power and see the results.
If it was Tian Gu Nian, he would have returned alive from Western Xinjiang this time.
The officials up and down the Great Zhou Dynasty will be able to take root in the most stable roots. The troubled times will be fully unleashed. The people of the Great Zhou Dynasty will be safe and sound.
The people are the foundation of everything, and officials are the people's support.
If the people are safe, the country will be safe, and the people will be safe, which is the most powerful start for the Zhou Dynasty to attack the other five countries.
How could he, Huo Shenzhi, not want this throne?
At that time, Emperor Wu Zong's days came to an end.
Huo Ying told Gu Mingxiu everything except the matter of the throne.
Only then did Gu Mingxiu understand, and he was surprised: "How can you tell me such an important secret?"
"What a pity." Huo Ying sighed: "If Mr. Gu had not taken this step, the Jiangnan side would have been handed over to Mr. Gu. You have a kind heart. In fact, my master has already taken a liking to you."
He is the only one left in the Gu family now.
When Master Jiu gives him real power, it will not be difficult for the Gu family to make a comeback.
But... just a moment's notice, fate plays a trick on people.
Huo Ying also felt it was particularly pity.
Such talents can no longer be used.
Gu Mingxiu couldn't help but smile: "Everyone has his own destiny, and this is my destiny. Thank you very much, Commander Huo, for coming here and answering my questions. In this way, I feel at ease."
"But I have one thing. I want to work with Commander Huo."
When Huo Ying was about to leave, Gu Mingxiu stopped Huo Ying.
It's almost dawn.
There is no news yet from King Qi.
Yun Si was still healing without a moment's rest.
Huo Ying felt relieved to stay longer.
"The matter of my giving my eyes is known to heaven and earth. I don't want anyone else to know about it, let alone Miss Jiang's ears."
Huo Ying: "Miss Jiang?"
Gu Mingxiu was very calm. No one knew how he looked so broken and heartbroken underneath this calmness: "Yes, I have already written a letter to let my wife go. The last thing is that I want Commander Huo to take me somewhere else." , it is best that no one can find it. I will donate part of the property money in my name to the imperial court to thank Master Jiu and Commander Huo for their kindness."
When he arrived, Gu Mingxiu had arranged everything, including the rest of his life.
Before daybreak, the journey to the Prince Regent's Palace will begin.
Huo Ying sent someone to resettle Gu Mingxiu.
But his eyes needed treatment, so he asked Yun Lingzheng to convey the message first.
After Yun Si had endured thirteen hours and relaxed, after coming out of the medical room, she felt that she was too tired to lift her spirits.
Yun Lingzheng saw Yun Si looking so tired from a distance.
The others were fine, but she leaned on the door, sat down slowly, and was about to fall asleep.
"Xiao Liu?" Yun Lingzheng quickly came to Yun Si's side and reached out to hold Yun Si's head, which was almost tilted.
I called her several times, but she didn't respond.
Lu He just came out: "Master Yun, Master, she is tired."
It is common for people like them to stay up without sleeping.
Especially the surgeon, the whole process is very tight and he doesn't dare to slack off.
Not to mention, it is such a delicate treatment as eye transplantation.
Now that it's over, Yun Si is completely exhausted physically and mentally, and she can still wake up.
Lu He's eyes were severely bloodshot, but he was so consumed that he now felt light-headed and extremely hungry.
Yun Lingzheng looked at Yun Si sleeping deeply and said, "It's better to fall asleep."
Lu He didn't understand the deep meaning of Yun Lingzheng's words until Yun Lingzheng turned around and ordered his followers: "Go and talk to Master Jiu."
After that, he stepped aside.
It turns out that I came here on November 1.
But the shadow of the tall man behind him pressed down, and Yun Lingzheng immediately realized who was coming.
He turned around——
"Master Jiu."
Huo Shenzhi did not pick up Yun Si, but stood in front of her, frowning and looking at her for a long time before bowing down for her.
Yun Si was very light, as if she had no weight in his hand.
This night, she spent a lot of energy, and you could vaguely see the cyan color that was slowly developing in her eyes.
Huo Shenzhi's hands tightened and he hugged her very carefully, for fear that she would wake up.
Everyone who saw them said nothing and just watched them leave.
There was a soft knock on the door, Yun Si breathed evenly, and there was no sign of waking up.
Huo Ying whispered from outside: "Master, it's time to set off."
The original plan was to set off before dawn this morning.
But Yun Si's operation was not finished yet, Huo Shenzhi kept waiting until now.
"Go and prepare some hot water and clothes. Be quiet and don't disturb her."
Huo Shenzhi was a military general, and he knew that Yun Si's breathing was very steady and she could not wake up easily.
He peeled off the clothes on his body, dipped the handkerchief in hot water, and wiped every inch of her body.
The deep eyes were dark, but there was no trace of desire.
Suddenly, the wiping hand stopped.
Hot love.
On Yun Si's wrist, a black love thread like his was changing from light to dark, slowly appearing...
