His Majesty finally gave up thinking and instructed everyone not to disturb Gu Jingyuan's sleep, before getting up and walking to the front hall.Chapter 3 The marks on the eyebrows are the marks in his heart Gu Jingyuan slept until noon, and learned that Emperor Yuwen did not go back to the imperial study after the morning court, but went to other palaces to talk to the ministers, so he quickly got up and dressed.Do you want to take a break for a while?
The eunuch Hong Gonggong, the leader of Long Yanzhao's side, was personally waiting for him to wake up, and when he saw that Gu Jingyuan wanted to get dressed, he hurriedly ordered someone to send it: Your Majesty is afraid that you will be disturbed to rest.It's not going to stop.Gu Jingyuan changed into civilian clothes and was about to leave, but Gonggong Hong stopped him: Your Majesty ordered, wait until you wake up and eat before leaving.This Lord Gu, why don't you eat something before leaving?
Gu Jingyuan stopped at this time.He never embarrassed his subordinates.When Gonggong Hong saw it, he immediately happily asked someone to pass the meal, and when the food was served, Gu Jingyuan had already finished washing.One after another exquisite dishes were put on the table, and Gonggong Hong did not forget to say on the side: Today's meals are all specially ordered by His Majesty to be prepared for Lord Gu, and they are all loved by adults, so you can try them.Gu Jingyuan ate obediently.didn't say that the dishes on this table are mainly light, but he himself is not spicy or happy.After all, in His Majesty's memory, that person can't eat spicy.Therefore, if Gu Jing is willing to eat in the palace, he will not eat spicy Yu, and Emperor Wen is very good to him.It was so good that the whole government and the opposition were moved and envious.It's just that everyone knows that this good is not for Gu Jingyuan.A lot of people look at him as if they're waiting to see a joke.After finishing the meal, Gu Jingyuan finally left the palace.As soon as he stepped into the Regent's Mansion, he was reminded by the housekeeper: Second young master, the master is waiting for you in the study.Gu Jingyuan went directly to the study.Knocking on the door of the study, Gu Yuanjin was holding a brush and writing calligraphy in front of the table.The regent was silent, and Gu Jingyuan stood aside and waited quietly.I don't know how long I stood there, Gu Jingyuan's legs were numb for a long time, Gu Yuanjin put down the brush and said: Rebel, do you know the mistake?
Gu Jingyuan listened, and his knees hit the ground.He knelt down directly.Jing Yuan is not doing well, please punish your father-in-law.Gu Jingyuan knelt there with his head down, and his thin figure looked even weaker.But Gu Yuanjin was not unmoved, his voice became more severe: Look at the trip you went out, Hu Guowei, you didn't keep it, and you were asked to send money and food, you are really a good son of your father-in-law!
It's all such a good thing!
With Gu Yuanjin's rough temper, he was already quite restrained.Gu Jingyuan didn't defend or speak, just lowered his head.Gu Yuanjin reprimanded him a few more words, his attitude finally eased a little, his voice returned to normal, and asked him: This time the evidence of Lianghe, Ah Yuan has indeed been completely destroyed?
Gu Jingyuan, who was kneeling there, straightened his waist: all the evidence involving his father-in-law had been destroyed by his own hands, and General Huo's subordinates could testify.Gu Yuanjin nodded at this time, and sighed: That's it, the matter has come to this point, and you can't be blamed.After all, if you hadn't destroyed all the evidence in time this time, my father-in-law's side would have been affected.Gu Jingyuan fell to the ground and was silent again.Although Gu Yuanjin was old, his eyes were shining, and he stared at Gu Jingyuan below, observing his reaction.The old fox suddenly spoke again, and asked, "You entered the city last night?"
Gu Jingyuan replied: Yes.Didn't go home.Where did it go?
Your Majesty summoned me to the palace for an audience.Just back?
The son was so tired that he accidentally fell asleep in the palace.Gu Yuanjin stared at him without blinking: Resting in the imperial study?
There was a hint of disdain in his voice.Gu Jingyuan didn't hear it.He finally raised his head and began to play his role with all his heart, showing his frightened side: Father-in-law, I am Your Majesty, let me rest there.Seeing his reaction like this, Gu Yuanjin's eyes were even brighter.He changed his sternness just now, nodded and said: It seems that this time, Your Majesty has really begun to believe in you.It can be regarded as Ah Yuan doing a good job.Gu Jingyuan hurriedly said: My son is panicked.Seeing Gu Jingyuan's attitude, Gu Yuanjin's gaze finally eased a little, and he turned his head back to his loving father: Ah Yuan could have returned to Beijing a month ago, but I heard that the delay on the road this time was because you were injured?
Be.Who did it?
Is there a guess?
Gu Jingyuan shook his head: My son doesn't know.Gu Yuanjin said: The old man heard that the assassin is very likely to be a person sent by His Majesty.Gu Jingyuan still lay on the ground and didn't speak.It didn't seem to be shocked or surprised by Gu Yuanjin's speculation.Gu Yuanjin was finally satisfied: Your Majesty treats you well now, but you remember that for him, you are just a stand-in for the little prince of Beirong after all.The son understood.Gu Jingyuan's voice sounded a little calm and self-controlled, but there was extreme coldness inside.Gu Yuanjin felt relieved by his reaction.Although he lost the governor of Lianghe and some money and food this time, the evidence of his participation in the corruption of ink and silver was destroyed by Gu Jingyuan, and it did not affect him after all.You can make a comeback at any time.What he was most worried about was that Gu Jingyuan would defect to the little emperor.Getting along like that day and night, even the smart and calm Gu Jingyuan can't guarantee that he won't lose his heart and fall.What's more, the little emperor has always been very good at buying people's hearts.But now it seems that I have thought too much.Thinking about it this way, it's just a stand-in, as long as it's not too stupid, you can figure out which side you should stand on.What's more, Gu Jingyuan's heart, Gu Yuanjin's heart, was completely put back into his stomach.Give a sweet date with a slap, and after the warning, it's time to appease your son.Gu Yuanjin personally helped Gu Jingyuan up from the ground.Daddy also knows that it is not easy for you, this disaster relief is very good, just now Daddy is in a hurry and angry with you.Don't blame Daddy.Gu Jingyuan said: It is the son who is not doing well, and the righteous father has taught the right lesson.Gu Yuanjin nodded, you don't have to think so, at least you have gained the trust of the little emperor.Gu Jingyuan continued to look panicked: his father-in-law had won the award.As long as you can understand your son's mind, it is enough.Father and son said some nice things to each other, and the matter was over.Gu Jingyuan returned to his mansion, there were not many people in his house, but because there was no one else at home, he himself was not often at home, but he was also well organized by these people.When I got home, it happened that the reward from the palace had also arrived.Gu Jingyuan's handling of the two rivers is a miracle, he is well-known in the people's family, and he almost lost his life, so he should have been rewarded.But since Dengke and the first, he has been an official for two years, and he has been promoted twice in a row, and now Gu Jingyuan is already a member of the second grade.The promotion is too fast, presumably he will not be promoted again this time.If you don't get promoted, other rewards are indispensable.It's just that Gu Jingyuan doesn't have much interest in gold and silver treasures.There were a few large boxes on the floor, and he didn't look at them too much, but called the housekeeper to put them in the storeroom.Master Gu is really a son like jade, with a high wind and bright festival.This gold is a thousand taels, right?!
You don't even look at it!
Gu Jingyuan was about to return to the house when a young nobleman dressed in a brocade shirt stepped into his courtyard.In the capital, there are not many people who can come uninvited, come and run directly into the backyard of Gu Jingyuan's house without reporting.Gu Jingyuan heard this person's voice and hurriedly turned around to look.He had always been steady, and his movements were already eager, not to mention that there seemed to be a smile in Gu Jingyuan's eyes, which was completely different from what he had when he was in the Regent's Mansion before.Yang Gongzi, I just returned to Beijing, and you came to see me?
The person he called Yang Gongzi was the second son of the right prime minister, Yang Lin.Yang Lin is a typical disciple of Jingzhong, arrogant and lascivious, unlearned.But Yang Gongzi also has his advantages.He has a straightforward personality, and the two have studied in a private school, and they have some friendship.Although Gu Jingyuan doesn't have many friends, he miraculously has a good relationship with him.Yang Lin's gaze was still lingering on the gold bar.Didn't you hear that Master Gu is back, I thought, if you come back, I will have wine to drink.Gu Jingyuan laughed, his peach blossom eyes crooked: Don't stand up, come in and sit.Yang Lin had no problem with entering the house, but he still muttered as he walked: Sit down for a while, but Lord Xiao Gu, you have to invite me to dinner today, Yangshenglou walks?
Gu Jingyuan said: No problem.Well, worthy of my brother.Yang Lin said again: You said that if I was as rich as you, how happy I would be, then I still need to study?
Gu Jingyuan said helplessly: How much is this money?
Yang Gongzi, a child in Beijing, has a solid family background, and he still looks at these small amounts of money in his eyes?
Stop talking, I can't open the pot anymore.Second Young Master Yang was miserable: When the two of us were studying together, it was obvious that you were so poor that you were so poor, or I used private money to help you, but now this situation has become really fast, and I can't even afford a restaurant now!
Gu Jingyuan smiled and bent his eyes in his complaint, Prime Minister Yang loves you the most, and he will not deduct your monthly money for no reason, have you done something wrong again?
What could it be?
I still can't memorize the book.Yang Lin was aggrieved: Tell me, how many people in this world can be like Master Gu, who can be a high school champion in their teens?
My father always compares me to you, if I can have half of you, I want him to have a little money?
Gu Jingyuan: Yang Lin can't look at the literary style, but don't say it, there is really nothing wrong with this logic.Yang Ergongzi went back to the room with Gu Jingyuan, still scolding.It wasn't until the next person brought tea and melons and fruits that the door was closed, and his momentum stopped.Yang Lin asked Gu Jingyuan: Can anyone hear us talking now?
Gu Jingyuan listened attentively for a moment, and then shook his head, no.Yang Lin instantly lost his strength, and hurriedly took a sip of tea to moisten his throat, and he asked Gu Jingyuan: How is it?
Am I okay with this kind of acting?
Yes.Gu Jingyuan also took a sip of tea, his clear eyes looked at Yang Lin, and said: Where does Yang Ergongzi still need to act as a gentleman, you are.Yang Lin: Be content, you, Yang Ergongzi rolled his eyes and continued to express his grievances: If it weren't for the fact that my image has always been so unlearned, with the life-and-death strength between Gu Yuanjin and my father, where would your father-in-law allow you to make friends with me?
Then if we don't get along, how can I help you deliver news to my father?
Gu Jingyuan chuckled: That's right.Yang Ergongzi is really hard.It's all for the emperor.Yang Lin said, you and my father are both loyal and good ministers and good men.I can't behave too badly, no.That's not true.Gu Jingyuan shook his head and said: The Prime Minister has worked hard all his life and worked hard, how can I compare with him?
The world only knows that Gu Jingyuan is the righteous son of the regent.It is a pawn used by the regent to charm the monarch.But he only entered the Regent's palace three or four years ago.Before that, he and the Yang family actually knew each other even earlier.The exact relationship between Gu Jingyuan and the Prime Minister's Mansion, Gu Yuanjin thought he knew, but in fact, he didn't know anything.Just as he didn't know what Gu Jingyuan said and did in front of him, in fact, he was all acting.Gu Jingyuan lowered his eyebrows and smiled lightly, with a humble and respectful attitude: Everything I did was just to listen to the arrangement of the Prime Minister.Okay, don't be modest.Yang Lin twisted the peanut kernels on the table and stuffed them into his mouth, and said to himself: You are all selfless, you are all so fearless, I can't compare to you.I just hope that after I get rid of the old fox of the regent, Your Majesty can also remember my work from the dragon, and give me an errand when Gu Jingyuan listened, his expression became serious, and reminded him: Second son.Yang Lin knew that he was speechless, and hurriedly said: I know, I will only talk to you about this kind of thing.That's fine.Gu Jingyuan paused for a moment, and corrected it seriously: In addition, the skill of the dragon should not be used here.Yang Lin was deflated: Phew!
After the snow, it will be cold, and Gu Jingyuan's hands and feet will easily become cold in winter, and he will warm his hands while holding a teacup while smiling at Yang Ershao.At this time, his smile was not as soft as when he was in the palace, but a little more hearty and sparse.Faced with Gu Jingyuan's appearance comparable to the breeze and the moon, Yang Lin couldn't lose his temper in front of him, so he had to decide not to worry about him.He said indignantly: But I'm just holding my breath, it's not that I don't work hard, isn't this the need for me to be a gentleman now!
In this way, my father is so ruthless that he deducts my monthly money, how can I be a gentleman if I don't have money?
Isn't it difficult for a good woman to cook without rice!
Jing Yuan, you have to help me talk to him next time.Good, good, good.Gu Jingyuan chuckled again, but don't blame your father, Prime Minister Yang Cheng is looking forward to Jackie Chan, I hope you are well.Also.Yang Lin sighed, and his handsome eyebrows were suddenly full of melancholy: Everything was fine with my eldest brother in the past, but now my father only has me?
!
Gu Jingyuan's hand holding the teacup suddenly trembled.The hot tea splashed on the back of his overly pale hand, and the severe pain made Gu Jingyuan come back to his senses in an instant, Yang Lin had already taken the teacup from his hand, and hurriedly helped him wipe the tea on his hands.Why are you so careless?
How old is the man?
You used to live like this and couldn't take care of yourself!
It's really hopeless, look, it's all red!
Gu Jingyuan had a ringing in his ears, and he couldn't hear what he was saying.He didn't listen, just subconsciously said: It's okay, I'm fine.His eyes fell on Second Young Master Yang's face, which was a little immature, but had vaguely become handsome.The expression is like a daze.But when Yang Lin raised his head, Gu Jingyuan's face was clean, and all complicated emotions had disappeared.Gu Jingyuan still chuckled: I'm really fine.Chapter 4 The marks on the eyebrows are the marks in the heart, I see that your face is not good, are you okay?
Yang Lin frowned at him.It's okay.Gu Jingyuan shook his head again, and then he was afraid to hold the teacup coldly, and then said: Let's get down to business.I have already handed over the evidence brought back from Lianghe to Your Majesty, and I will trouble the second prince to go back and tell Yang Xiang.There are two pieces of evidence for the Governor of the Two Rivers, one is Hu Guowei's own, and the other is evidence that the regent was behind the scenes.
