Seduction

The rain that had been suffocated all day finally poured down at night. From the time he opened his eyes in the morning to now, Gu Qing always felt that his lungs were blocked and he couldn't breathe out. The rain and the leaves hugged each other, and he exhaled this breath.

The air finally moved, and the rain eased the sweltering heat in Gu's residence.

As soon as he fell down, Uncle Wang and Dong Zhi were busy working inside and outside the house. Dong Zhi was in much better shape than when he first came, and his wheat-colored muscles were firm and healthy. Gu Qing watched Dong Zhi pass by the door again and again. , thinking that if he could survive, he would bask in the sun more in the future.

Lu Wangyao was not at home, so Piaoyao and Gu Qing basically had nothing to say, except for an unpleasant conversation that day, and the rest of the conversation afterward was only "Master Gu took his medicine." and "Okay, thank you."

Gu Qing stood up from the bed, he blinked, the scenery in front of him was still clear, the leaves became darker after being hit by the rain, Gu Qing liked this color very much, when he was a child, every time it rained, he would sit at the door, holding Sip the hot tea and smell the soil seriously.

Not sure when was the last time I did this.Gu Qing suddenly remembered, so she went to boil a pot of tea for herself, and carried it to the door.

As soon as I sat down, I saw Uncle Wang hurriedly came with an umbrella.

"Uncle Wang?" Gu Qing got busy, and Uncle Wang bent over to help him, "Why is the master sitting here? What should I do if I catch a cold?"

"It's okay, just come and get some air." Gu Qing stood up following Uncle Wang's strength, and walked back into the room obediently.

"Master, let me ask something." Uncle Wang said.

Gu Qing got up and pulled a chair, "Sit down and talk."

Uncle Wang looked very anxious, and he didn't exchange any greetings with Gu Qingduo, so he took out an account book from his clothes.

"I want to show this to the master. We have delivered so much rice for General Chen this time, and the Gu family is in a tight situation. Tianguan will not be able to supply it."

"Oh?" Gu Qing was slightly startled, and smiled embarrassedly.He thought that his money would never be squandered.

"Look at it, how do you turn it around? Is it going to move the warehouse of the headquarters?"

Gu Qing originally wanted to say that Uncle Wang can make a decision on this kind of matter, but then he thought that Uncle Wang had come to him, and it might really not be a small amount. The rice in the northwest should be within the tolerance of the Gu family, so as not to leave a hole.

"I remember... there should be some other account..." Gu Qing's fingers slid across the account book one by one, he turned a page, and suddenly remembered, "Didn't I go to Dongpu a while ago. Wine and harp."

"There is such a thing." Uncle Wang said.

"What about that business record? Why didn't the tea transaction between me and Dongying come into the account?"

"This..." Uncle Wang thought for a while, "Yes. You will have a batch of money for spring tea soon after you come back."

"What about the future? The second batch of summer tea should be sent away around May, why is there no account from that place?"

"Xia tea?" Uncle Wang frowned. He also boasted a wooden box on his left shoulder, which contained the account books of several months. Uncle Wang carried the box up and dug out all the account books in May.

"There are bills..." Uncle Wang stopped, "The ones from the south of the Yangtze River and those from the central Sichuan province have all been shipped to Dongying."

It's almost July, and the bill has not been collected yet.

"Did you miss it?" Gu Qing asked softly, after all, Uncle Wang is older.

"Probably not, such a large sum of money, and I'm not foolish, how could I not remember it?" Uncle Wang said.

Gu Qing thought for a while, then lowered her head and began to write the letter.

"Dongying is long and narrow, and there is only one commercial road running through the north and the south. I'll send someone to inquire about the situation there. You should go back first. If the situation here is really tense, open the warehouse of the General Mansion."

Uncle Wang still looked worried, but he nodded and retreated.Before leaving, she repeatedly asked Gu Qing not to sit at the door and get wet in the rain.

Gu Qing sighed, clapped her hands, and several black-clothed ninjas suddenly knelt down in front of Gu Qing's door.

Gu Qing bent down and handed the letter to one of them, "Go back to your country and ask your Grand Duke what's going on." He said slowly.

Several ninjas responded in unison, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

The last time Gu Qing was in Japan to discuss business, the other side sent a few skilled ninjas to protect him.Gu Qing saw that the ninjas came and went without a trace, and rarely needed to communicate, and obeyed the orders. He thought it was very good, so he asked the Grand Duke for a few.Didn't expect this to come in handy.

Gu Qing blew on the air, walked back and forth a few times, and felt that his body didn't feel uncomfortable, and he seemed to have recovered almost as before. If he didn't suddenly realize that these were all illusions, he wouldn't have realized that he was laughing.Gu Qing shook her head, sighing that she was just happy again.

Continuous rain, from night to dawn, the sky is like a sad lady.

The thick dark clouds covered his face, sobbing non-stop, sobbing non-stop, sobbing aroused love, but also made people feel bored.

Zhan Xingruo opened his eyes, the dark sky made people breathless, two days had passed since he talked with Wuzheng last time, the emperor still did not go to court, and he had no way of inquiring about the war in the north, Zhang Jiyao locked everyone's mouths to death dead.

He sat up, opened the curtains and looked outside. A frog jumped over the water bubbles, and Zhan Xingruo fell down again. As soon as he closed his eyes, he heard the guard shouting hurriedly.

"Mr. Zhan! Go to court today!"

Zhan Xingruo was startled, opened his eyes and tidied up in a hurry, and when he opened the door to go out, he walked towards the hall in a leisurely manner with his clothes fluttering.

When he arrived, all the ministers had already arrived.

Wu Zheng arrived, as did Zhang Jiyao and Kong Fuyi.Everyone's eyes are on Zhan Xingruo, he can feel them all, everyone's eyes are hot like Wu Zheng, ironic like Zhang Jiyao, sharp and cold like the gentry, he can feel them all .

Things have to go back to last night. Since the conversation with Wuzheng, Zhan Xingruo has been retreating to sort out the paperwork, and Wuzheng has never looked for him again. Not only did he not look for him, he even stopped the usual gossip. At the same time, Zhan Xingruo also sneaked a few glances at Wuzheng.

Wu Zheng always frowned, not knowing what he was thinking about.

Zhan Xingruo understands that Wu Zheng is fighting with him, or fighting against himself.When he knew Wu Zheng since he was a child, Wu Zheng used "cultivating himself, governing the family, governing the country and the world" as his mantra, "If you want to do the next big things, you have to do the first small things well." speak.

"What's the little thing?" Zhan Xingruo asked. After entering the prince's mansion, Zhan Xingruo followed Wu Zheng and studied with the Taifu every day. Zhan Xingruo thought that being with his peers would be lighter than being with his father, but it was not the case.

"Cultivate yourself." Wu Zheng said, "Be strict with yourself, Ah Li likes to sleep in too much." Xiao Wu Zheng said.

Zhan Xingruo blushed, lowered his head and said nothing.

"I just don't want to sleep." He turned his head away and whispered, "Is there anything else?" He asked Wu Zheng.

"No, no more." Wuzheng was taken aback by the question, "I didn't mean to criticize you, I was..."

"It's nothing, I'll go back first." Wu Zheng said halfway, but was interrupted mercilessly by Zhan Xingruo, and watched helplessly as the friend who had just been abducted left him.

Zhan Xingruo played his temper that day and sneaked away. After Wu Zheng, he never mentioned this matter again. As long as he doesn't go to court, Zhan Xingruo can sleep late.Not only Zhan Xingruo, Wuzheng has always been tolerant to others, but he can't tolerate his own mistakes.

Etiquette and family rules, no disputes are engraved in the heart. From childhood to adulthood, the best thing is to classify seniority. As long as the elders are respectful, the younger generations are more caring.

Such a conscientious and non-competitive person, how could he be willing to be compared with those who stepped on his brother's life to ascend to the throne. Zhan Xingruo mentioned to him several times that he wanted him to seize power.

He hinted at him, but he pretended not to hear it.

To make it clear, Wu Zheng can only respond with anger and silence.

The anger was because it was his father, he would not do such unfaithful and unfilial things, and the person who knew best should be Zhan Xingruo, but it was Zhan Xingruo who kept mentioning such taboos in his ears.

The reason for the silence is that he also knows that now that Yuezhu is over and the mountains and rivers are in decline, if he really wants to turn the tide and rein in the precipice, that may be the last trump card.

Zhan Xingruo walked past the Gonggun group, and everyone stepped aside one after another, telling Zhan Xingruo to go straight to the hall and kneel down.Zhan Xingruo kept his eyes on the front without any wavering, and he didn't even take a second look at Wuzheng who was fidgeting on the sidelines.

Last night, he received intelligence from the front that Kong Fuyi had won the battle and had just entered Beijing at midnight.Zhan Xingruo had already fallen asleep at that time, but he had arranged for someone to notify him as soon as possible no matter what the time, so when someone came to report, Zhan Xingruo was still in a daze and couldn't remember clearly.

He only knew that once Kong Fu won the fight, he would be finished.

It's just that he didn't tell Wu Zheng.

These gentry entangled Zhang Jiyao. Zhang Jiyao is so smart, of course he would not be stupid to solve the problems for the gentry one by one. The fastest way to get rid of the gentry is to solve the person who raised the problem. If Zhan Xing died, the reform would be strangled in the cradle At that time, everything will be solved, and for a period of time, no one will be stupid enough to talk to the emperor about the reform.

After Zhan Xingruo received the news, he was not surprised or desperate. He just wanted to sleep a little longer. After all, the straw mattress in the prison is not as comfortable as the bed.He understood that when Kong Fu came back one by one, even if Zhang Jiyao's army was ready, fortunately the northwest side was on guard, otherwise he really didn't know what the situation would be now.

He sat back on the bed, raised his head and closed his eyes to meditate, thinking about what he had done and what else he had left to arrange. Chen Jiang returned to the capital, transported the grain and grass to the northwest, and challenged Wu Zheng to seize power. He believed in Wu Zheng I will think about it carefully, and there is nothing to worry about.

Zhan Xingruo breathed a sigh of relief, lying on the bed, glanced out of the window but didn't see the moon that always caused melancholy.Zhan Xingruo knew that it was cloudy, but his eyes still couldn't stop searching. For some reason, he associated the moon with the gazebo in Gu's mansion, and from the gazebo to a certain warm morning.

Gu Qing got up early in the morning just to make a simple porridge, lying on the table, happily waiting for a layer of porridge to form on the hot porridge.

Then when he opened his eyes, it was delivered to his mouth immediately.
