When Gu Cheng walked out of the inner hall, everyone in the courtyard looked at him.At this time, Gu Cheng had already completely restrained his emotions, and outsiders could not see the slightest expression on his face.Gu Cheng nodded lightly to the Nine Emperors and said, "Your Highness, my grandmother is gone, but I have no foundation in the capital now, and I have to trouble His Highness to send someone to help deal with the funeral." ”At this time, Gu Yuanzhong couldn't help but say: "Of course, my mother's funeral must be handled by my Gu family, how can I bother outsiders?"
”Gu Cheng glanced at the other party coldly, and said coldly: "When grandma was seriously ill, you were still here to feast guests, are you worthy?"
Gu Yuanzhong, I said it, I don't want to kill people today, but that doesn't mean I can't kill people!
”With the death of Gu Lao Taijun, Gu Cheng can be said to have completely severed the only connection with the Gu family, and he did not regard Gu Yuanzhong's family as his own family, even if it was nominal and blood.Seeing Gu Cheng's cold eyes, Gu Yuanzhong didn't dare to continue to provoke Gu Cheng at this time, so he could only admit it and ask Li Xiaozhun to send someone to take Gu Laotaijun's body away for burial.In fact, Gu Yuanzhong does not have much affection for Gu Lao Taijun's mother, not only because of his Gu Yuanzhong's own cold nature, but also because of jealousy, he is jealous of his eldest brother.At the beginning, after their father Gu Lao Hou Ye died, Gu Lao Taijun raised them, but at that time, someone from the Zhongyong Hou Mansion had to stand up and take the lead and support the Hou Mansion.Therefore, Gu Lao Taijun had to choose to put most of his efforts on Gu Cheng's father, which made Gu Yuanzhong feel that he was left out all the time, as if he was not his own.At the moment, Gu Lao Taijun is seriously ill and even died, he has no sad emotions, only anger, anger towards Gu Cheng.At this time, the princes who were originally going to congratulate Gu Yuanzhong also glanced at each other and left quietly.Before, they thought that this Gu Yuanzhong was attached to the three princes, so this time it must have developed.But now it seems that it is not necessarily, even his Gu family himself is a bunch of troublesome things, maybe what the result will be.From being high-spirited to now losing face, even his mother's funeral was robbed by Gu Cheng, he can be said to be disgraced and thrown home, and the ups and downs of life are so fast.Zhang Shi was unwilling to say: "How could that little beast become so strong?
What should the Marquis of Zhongyong do when he sees the title?
”Gu Yuanzhong snorted coldly: "Title, you know the title!"
Let's go to the third prince with the certificate first, and explain to the third prince that we have completely broken with that Gu Cheng and have nothing to do with it.Otherwise, if the third prince knows that someone in my Gu family has actually taken refuge in the fourth prince's lineage, it will be called bad!
”Saying that, Gu Yuanzhong directly put on a smiling face and went to explain to Situ Xiao.Gu Yuanzhong's family was still worried about the title, but in fact, Gu Cheng had never paid attention to that thing, Gu Yuanzhong's family was not qualified to take this position, and Gu Cheng was not ready to inherit any title.In Gu Cheng's view, Daqian's title system is actually just a kind of honorary title, which belongs to the most unaffordable kind.As long as you have made a contribution, the royal family does not mind giving you a title, and then making you a marquis and a general, which is very generous to the Li family.But in fact, this title does not help your own status, you have the strength, even if you are a small soldier, you can become a general, if you are not angry, even if you are the descendant of the founding emperor's brothers, you will not get any real power.All the titles of the entire Daqian only have titles, no fiefs, and hereditary recklessness can still get some money, although there are a lot, but it can only ensure that you can live a decent life, and you can't even say that you are rich and noble.So only those who don't have any ability, but still pull the relationship to climb up, will care about this kind of title, and those who are really capable want to fight for a marquis by themselves.Although this kind of system is not very friendly to the descendants of those meritorious heroes, it is very good to stand on the system of the entire great cadres, and it can prevent those martial princes from becoming corrupt and degenerate from generation to generation and not thinking of making progress.It can be said that the martial princes who can be handed down now are all people who have real power in the Daqian military or civil officials and even in the Jingye Division, and those who do not want to make progress have already been naturally eliminated.Gu Cheng spent seven days dealing with Old Taijun's funeral, and after letting her old man go, Gu Cheng also sorted out his emotions.As Gu Lao Taijun left, the obsession of 'Gu Cheng' in this life in the depths of his memory has completely dissipated.Of course, this is actually a good thing for Gu Cheng, making his soul and body more closely connected.After these things were done, Gu Cheng took the paperwork and prepared to go to Jingye Division to take office.The headquarters of the Jingye Division in the capital is very conspicuous, next to the imperial city, partly to highlight the importance of the Jingye Division over both the civil and military sides, and another meaning is to guard the imperial city, and no yin ghosts and evil spirits can get close.The wall of the Jingye Division is very high, ten zhang high, outsiders can hardly see what it looks like inside, a row of black city walls enclose the entire headquarters of the Jingye Division, the area is a hundred miles, it is simply a city within a city, not much smaller than the Great Qianhuang City.In fact, there are not so many people in the headquarters of the Jingye Division in the capital, and the people in the headquarters are the elite of the entire Jingye Division, one is worth ten ordinary Xuanjia guards outside.The reason why the Jingye Division was built so big at the beginning was because the headquarters of the Jingye Division was self-contained, and there were many departments in it.For example, the Torture Department that Gu Cheng had to take over before, as well as those who were responsible for refining pills, refining all kinds of strange secret treasures, and even those who were responsible for hidden assassinations and investigating intelligence, there were many, many of these departments, and the leaders of some departments were even already grandmaster-level existences, and they were directly under the jurisdiction of the Grand Governor of the Jingye Division or the commanders of the Quartet.These dense departments were put together, and this formed the current headquarters of the Yasuya Division.Stepping into the headquarters of the Yasuya Division and handing over his official post, he always felt that the two statues erected at the door were staring at him, and even he felt that this thing was alive.A Xuanjia guard guarding the door went in to report the news, and the others laughed and said, "You just came to the capital, right?"
Don't look at it, in the past, Luofu Zhenren personally refined the Diting Beast, and sealed the souls of the two big demons in it, you can examine the heaven and the earth, and any existence within more than ten miles around the headquarters of the Jingye Division can't hide the eyes of the Diting Beast, and even my Jingye Division has a special patrol division, and I watch the surrounding movements in front of the formation on the other side day and night. ”Gu Cheng nodded clearly, isn't this a three-hundred-and-sixty-degree all-round monitoring.After a while, the Xuanjia guard walked out and led Gu Cheng to turn left and right into a large hall.What Gu Cheng wants to see this time is the 'Hidden Dragon Don't Use' Fang Hate Shui among the four major commanders of the Jingye Division, this is also the backer behind Yu Yuanhai, I heard that Yu Yuanhai has helped him a lot, and Yu Yuanhai is also brought into the Jingye Division by him, but this is not the person who fights for the heavens.In fact, the commanders of the four regions of the capital do not have direct superiors, they are responsible for the affairs of the entire capital, and when the other departments of the Jingye Division need to cooperate, they must cooperate, and the same four commanders can also command them.Today, Gu Cheng came to Fang Hatshui to report, just because now Fang Hatshui has time and is sitting in the capital, and he is also his own person."
Subordinate Gu Cheng, see your lord."
Fang Hatshui, one of the four major commanders, is not very old in appearance, his real age is unknown, but his appearance is only in his early forties, and his appearance is also ordinary.But the aura on his body is very strange, Fang Hatshui does not have a strong momentum revealed, his whole body is like a black hole, whether it is the breath or the tentative gaze you reveal, it seems to be inhaled by it, so that you can't see the slightest depth.But according to Gu Cheng's knowledge, three of the four commanders of the Jingye Division are martial artists and one qi refiner, among which the weakest cultivation of these three is the Martial Dao Fourth Rank Wanghai, and the strongest is the Martial Dao Third Rank Divine Gate realm, all of them are the kind of strong people who can destroy a big sect with one person, and the Xuanwu True Sect, a big faction that dominates a county, will be wiped out with a wave of their hands.Fang Hatshui waved his hand, and said in a slow tone: "Okay, get up, don't be polite, you are the person recommended by Yu Yuanhai, so naturally you can be regarded as your own person."
I don't have anything to explain to you here, I have seen all your exploits in Nanzhi County, except for the realm of strength, with your ability, you are fully qualified to be the commander of this Eastern Regions.However, Yu Yuanhai arranged for you to be the commander of the torture department before, but I didn't expect you to get the position of the commander of the Eastern Regions through the hands of the four princes, which is really unexpected.Being in the capital, especially the position of the commander of the Four Regions is very sensitive, so I just want to ask you one thing today, are you the one of the four princes, and have you participated in the battle for succession?
”Fang Hatshui stared at Gu Cheng, his gaze was so deep that Gu Cheng couldn't tell what the other party meant, and even he seemed to be seen through anything in his heart by this glance.Someone else may be flustered at this glance and confide everything that should be said and shouldn't be said.Of course, Gu Cheng's psychological quality is still very strong, he is not flustered, on the premise of not knowing whether the other party knows about the Fighting Heaven Alliance, Gu Cheng answered everything he could truthfully."
I'm not a member of the Four Princes, this position of the Eastern Regions Commander is just a transaction I made with the Four Princes, I helped him bring down Xie Anzhi, and he helped me get this position.As for the battle for succession, little people like me are naturally not qualified to participate, and they don't want to participate.But people can't help themselves in the rivers and lakes, and people are the same in the court.In the past few days since I came to the capital, I have offended the people of the three princes, and I have also borrowed the favor of the four princes.Even if I didn't want to get involved, I was actually involved in some of it. ”
