Malicious Medical Princess of the Marquis House

Er Zhuang's words opened up new ideas for Gu Jiu.

How could she be so stupid?

In the past, I only thought of cultivating talents by myself, but I never thought of poaching.

However, this first round of hoes digging towards Liu Zhao seems not very good.

But besides Gu Jiu, there is another person who can try to dig in the corner of the wall. That is Mr. Gu.

In his private life, Mr. Gu is a proper scumbag. Master Gu is also in the same line in this regard.

But when Mr. Gu was young and strong, he also made great achievements in his career, and he was surrounded by a group of loyal and old subordinates.

After he retired, most of his old subordinates also retired with him and lived as errands in the Gu family.

Today, many of the guards in the Gu Mansion are the old subordinates of the year, or the children of the old subordinates.

The few useful people around Mr. Gu were also selected from his old subordinates.

Gu Jiu asked Er Zhuang to work first, and then began to think about the feasibility of this matter.

The sky gradually darkened.

Liu Zhao came back early today, it was still dark, and people had already arrived home.

He goes to wash first.

The weather was hot, and the yamen was a little far away from the palace, and he was sweating all the way back.

After washing, put on light home clothes and go to the small study.

Seeing Gu Jiu frowning and thinking deeply, he stretched out his hand and waved in front of her, Wake up!

Gu Jiu came back to his senses, You're back. When did you come back?

You don't know what you're thinking about so seriously, even if I come back for a while.

I'm thinking about how to dig your corner. Gu Jiu said with a smile.

Liu Zhao became interested, Do you want to dig my corner? Tell me, who do you like?

Gu Jiu stood up and walked around twice, moving his legs and feet.

She said to Liu Zhao: I'm short of available talents. The little servants in the Huangmen's house next to you are all very capable. Why don't you give me a few people? How about I hire them with a lot of money.

Liu Zhao laughed.

After laughing, he said loudly, No!

Gu Jiu was going to turn his face.

Liu Zhao hugged her and said, The people around me all have errands and can't lend them to you. But since you are short of people, I can help you find a way.

What way? Gu Jiu was curious.

Liu Zhao said, You don't care about the palace, you only care about the kitchen. You probably don't know how many people there are in the palace.

Gu Jiu nodded, she only knew that there were nearly a thousand people in the palace.

But she didn't know how many people were under the palace's name, where they were, and how to support them if they didn't have errands.

I know. Liu Zhao said softly: There are more than 5,500 people registered in the palace register. Get rid of the people who work in the palace, farms, and shops, and get rid of the guards of the palace, and there are two more. Three thousand idlers.

There are old people who can't work, and there are children who are too young to be errands. The remaining half are young adults between the ages of 16 and 50, both men and women.

Gu Jiu suddenly said, Do you mean to ask me to select talents from these young and middle-aged people who have no errands?

Liu Zhao nodded, If you're worried about their loyalty, I can ask Lord Jialing to transfer their deed of sale to your personal name. From now on, they will be your servants alone.

Gu Jiu frowned slightly, Is there anyone here who can be used?

Not only are there, but there are quite a few.

Gu Jiu became interested, Come and listen.

Liu Zhao pondered for a while, Of the thousands of idle workers, some of them are really unpleasant because they are dull and ugly, and it doesn't matter if they are incapable of getting jobs. Others are capable, knowledgeable, able to write and count only because If you offend people, you will be dismissed from the errand and driven out of the palace.

Gu Jiu asked curiously, Those people were kicked out of the palace, but the palace is still holding their deeds?

Liu Zhao said as a matter of course: Of course. Over the years, only a handful of people have been released by the palace. Those who have worked in the palace must not be let go easily. I don't know when it will harm the palace.

Gu Jiu understood.

Tell me what kind of people these offended people were kicked out of the palace, but they still held their deeds in the hands of the palace?

Liu Zhao picked up a few impressive people and introduced them to Gu Jiu one by one.

After listening, Gu Jiu asked, What do these people live on now?

It's usually a day job or a small business.

Will the palace not interfere?

Liu Zhao nodded, These people have no income without errands, but people always have to eat and wear clothes. The palace doesn't care about them, but it can't completely cut off their livelihood.

Taking part-time jobs and doing petty business has always been acquiesced in the palace.

You ask the maids around you, their headbands and bead flowers are basically bought from these people. They can almost support their family by doing a small business for the servants of the palace.

Gu Jiu looked at Qingmei.

Qingmei waved her hand, Slaves never go to the back door to buy things. Xiaocui knows this.

Gu Jiu understood, Call Xiao Cui and I'll ask her.

Soon, Xiaocui came to the small study.

Gu Jiu stared at her, Xiao Cui, who did you buy the headband on your head?

Xiao Cui was a little nervous, how did the lady ask about this. Is there something wrong with the headband on her head?

Qingmei reminded her, Madam is just curious, nothing else. Just tell Madam the truth.

Xiaocui breathed a sigh of relief, Mrs. Qi, the slave's headband was bought from Xu Sanwa. Xu Youfu used to sell it, but recently it was replaced by his son Xu Sanwa.

Who is Xu Youfu? Gu Jiu looked at Liu Zhao curiously.

Xiao Cui was a little confused and didn't understand why Madam was interested in Xu Youfu.

Qingmei waved her hand and told Xiaocui to go out first.

Xiaocui knowingly exited the small study.

Liu Zhao considered it for a while, and said, Xu Youfu was originally a pen and ink servant beside his father, but because of his misbehavior, he secretly slept with a maid of Wang Bixi Pavilion and was kicked out. I didn't expect that he had already given birth. Having three children, the children are still so old.

Gu Jiu: ... The servants beside the lord, all make mistakes like the master, and as expected, if there is a master, there will be a servant.

She asked curiously, Has he married that maid?

Liu Zhao nodded, I've already slept, so naturally I have to take responsibility. Both of them were kicked out of the palace, and as far as I know, they soon became relatives.

Gu Jiu asked again, Is Xu Youfu still making mistakes that men can make all these years?

Liu Zhao was stunned for a moment before realizing the true meaning of Gu Jiu's words.

It turns out that this is a mistake that all men make. Another day, I will make a mistake that all men make.

you dare!

Gu Jiu looked fierce.

Liu Zhao laughed and scratched her nose, Little vinegar jar.

Gu Jiu snorted, Take care of your lower body, otherwise don't blame me for being rude.

With you here, how dare I say nothing.

It's good if you know. Qingmei, you can call Qian Fu, and you can go to see Mrs. Jialing together and ask him for a list of unemployed people. It is best to be those who have worked in the palace and can write and be able to do things. People. If you have good seedlings, you can also recommend them to me.

Qingmei hesitated, Will the family order be given?

Tell him that my son wants the list, and he will give it. Liu Zhao said in front of Gu Jiu.

Gu Jiu laughed, Yes, you are using the name of the son, and the family commander dare not refuse to give it.

In the absence of King Ning, the eldest son, Liu Zhao, is in charge of the palace.

When Liu Zhao spoke, the master of the family did not dare to obey.

Qingmei was relieved, and went out to call Qian Fu, and went to see Mrs. Jialing together.

Speaking of King Ning, this matter became more and more troublesome.

Gu Jiu asked, Your Majesty still won't let go?

Liu Zhao nodded, I worked together with Zhao Wangfu and Yan Wangfu, but we still couldn't make the grandfather change his mind.

Do you think Your Majesty is too fearful or too confident? Gu Jiu lowered his voice and asked secretly.

Liu Zhao's complexion changed slightly, his eyes swept across her eyes, and he also lowered his voice and said, In my opinion, there is both fear and confidence.

The emperor was afraid of death, feared to be replaced by an adult prince, but at the same time he was very confident that he could live another ten or twenty years.

Where does the Son of Heaven's confidence come from?

From the age of 60 or 70, it is still possible for Concubine Li De and Jiang Shuyi to become pregnant successively. And Concubine Li also gave birth to a healthy little prince.

Because of fear, the emperor drove the adult princes out of the capital.

Because of his self-confidence, the emperor insisted that he would not let go, and would not allow the adult princes to return to Beijing.

Gu Jiu frowned slightly, This is troublesome. If King Father wants to return to Beijing, he must find an opportunity.

Liu Zhao looked at her and said nothing.

Gu Jiu raised her eyebrows and touched her cheek, What are you looking at me for?

Perhaps the opportunity lies with you.

Don't be kidding.

Gu Jiu sat farther away from Liu Zhao. so as not to be sold by him.

Liu Zhao took her hand and refused to let go.

He said: We have already tried all kinds of methods. Now that I think about it, the methods used in the court may not impress the grandfather.

Gu Jiu hummed twice and didn't answer.

The court method is not good, then we can only find another way.

Gu Jiu stared at him, What do you want me to do?

Liu Zhao only said three words, South Gate.

Gu Jiu frowned, Let me think about it.

It's not forced. If it's really not possible, let the father continue to suffer outside.

Gu Jiu gave him a look of disgust, Stop doing this. You wish that your father would be able to return to the capital tomorrow. The father and the others are out of town, and every extra day they stay in the capital will change a little bit more. Your Majesty's age is getting older. Old, maybe one day... what kind of chaos the capital will be like, no one can tell.

Liu Zhao lowered his head and wiped the back of her hand.

The only one who knows my worries is the lady.

Gu Jiu wanted to say something to him: stinky shameless.

In order to ask her to help, even the beauty trick was used.

However, she is eating this set.

Liu Zhao's face, coupled with Susu's love words, ah, it is the ultimate enjoyment.

It's like drinking a large glass of iced watermelon juice in dog days. So cool!

Gu Jiu was not confused by the beauty, but she was not as determined at the beginning, I have to think about it again. I may not be able to find an opportunity here.

I know. So don't force yourself. If you have the chance, tell me and I'll take care of it.

You do not understand.

Gu Jiu expressed his dislike for him very frankly.

Liu Zhao was very upset.

Gu Jiu said confidently, You don't understand economics and people's livelihood. When you went to school, did your master teach you?

The Master taught that you should be light-hearted and low-paying!

Just teaching the conclusion, but not teaching the specific operation methods, is all a hooligan. It seems that the teacher who teaches you is also a half-bucket of water, and he has no real ability.

Liu Zhao sneered, Master is a famous scholar in the world.

Confucianism has never been able to solve the problem of economic and people's livelihood. If you don't have money, you only know how to increase taxes or use some fake slogans to fool people. The rule of the saints is the biggest fool.

Liu Zhao smiled and said nothing.

After Gu Jiu finished speaking, she suddenly felt a little guilty, Am I deviant and wrong?

Liu Zhao shook his head, No, I think what you said makes sense. It's true that the Master is a great scholar, but he can't solve any problems. But studying with the Master is good for self-cultivation.

Gu Jiu smiled with a guilty conscience, Your master is a great Confucian scholar, he must have real talents and practical learning.

Liu Zhao nodded, Master's articles are so beautifully written that no one else can compare them. You know, when I imitated Master's writing style, I wrote a lot of political comments. Only the grandfather said bad.

I still remember very clearly that the imperial grandfather commented on my article in four words: flashy. Since then, have I ever imitated the Master again, I can write and do whatever I want.

Then I found out that, in fact, I couldn't make a flowery article. What I really like is that the white knives go in and the red knives come out neatly.

So you can't beat those civil servants.

Gu Jiu silently complained about Liu Zhao in his heart.

Liu Zhao was not good at smack dabbling, and Gu Jiu gradually realized this after marrying him.

But Liu Zhao's ability is very strong, and his learning ability is also first-class.

Are you grateful to your master?

Of course I'm grateful. But I don't want to listen to his teachings anymore.

Hearing this, Gu Jiu laughed.

If your master finds out, he'll be pissed.

I can't die. He already knew that I was at odds with him. He once said that I was the first student who made him feel frustrated. Because I didn't agree with him, I would even speak out against him.

Then you were blocked by all the civil servants.

Liu Zhao's brows twitched, It's about the same. The civil servants prefer the King of Chu, and the King of Chu's articles are well-crafted and well-liked by the Master.

It turns out that you and the King of Chu are not only cousins, but also classmates.

Liu Zhao was very upset, Gu Jiu didn't open the pot and lift it.

We don't talk about King Chu.

Gu Jiu smiled in understanding.

The conflict between Liu Zhao and the King of Chu probably came to an end when he was enlightened. It's no wonder that the two of them don't like each other.

Qingmei successfully brought the roster.

Gu Jiu was very straightforward, and threw the roster to Liu Zhao, You select for me, and I will review it.

Liu Zhao shook his head, smiled, and circled people with a pen.

He surrounded Gu Jiu with 80 people in one go, These people can all be written and calculated, and they can be used with a little training. As for their personalities, how did they come here over the years? You can let Qian Fu do it. an investigation.

Gu Jiu nodded and said, Qian Fu, you have heard it. The next eighty people will be handed over to you. I hope you can strictly check for me.

Qian Fu was heartbroken.

He was already too busy to touch the ground, and as a result, the son took the initiative to give him additional work.

Hey!

He listens to the son, the son listens to his wife, and in the final analysis, he still listens to his wife.

Madam has already sent a message, what can he do.

Had to take this errand.

Because there are a lot of people, it takes time to investigate. Please give the old slave some more time, ma'am.

Gu Jiu thought about the plans behind it, I'll give you half a month, is that enough?

Thank you madam for your understanding.

Qian Fu's side needs half a month, but Gu's side doesn't need it.

As soon as Old Man Gu heard that Gu Jiu wanted people, he made a list without saying a word, and selected twenty people to send to Gu Jiu.

Gu Jiu didn't know that these twenty people were useless.

She directly handed people over to Er Zhuang and asked Er Zhuang to inspect them.

As long as it can be used and there is no major problem, you can leave it.

If the problem is more serious, I'm sorry, I can only send it to the review house and return the person to Old Master Gu.

Time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it was the first day of the first year, and the first phase of the project outside the South City Gate opened.

Today, all construction sites are closed.

It was just dawn, and the sun had not yet come out. In the low shack, there was a sound of getting up.

Wang Jiangen rubbed his face and became more awake.

He picked out two buckets of water first.

Then wake up the whole family.

Simply wash your face and warm up the wowotou that I brought back last night. The family eats two wowotou, which is their breakfast.

There are still two wowotou left, which is Chinese food for the whole family.

Today, the construction site is not working, which means there is no income.

Wang Jiangen was very distressed.

Distressed food, distressed money.

When he thought about going to buy a house today, he became excited again.

After eating the last bite of wowotou, he adjusted his clothes and hung his identity plate around his neck.

Then he said with special pride: We went to see the house together as a family.
