Rebirth of the First General

When it's good.Gu Jiayi didn't think so. Instead, he wanted to kill a person, just kill him. It would be a one-and-done thing, simple and rude but effective!

Lin Yu squatted down, touched a piece of stone, and said thoughtfully: "Sure enough, a better stone was used to deal with me. The section of river embankment we passed was not made of this material."

Gu Jiayi didn't even look at him, but replied as usual: "It's necessary to cover up people's eyes and ears."

Lin Jue raised his head and saw that Gu Jiayi was busy looking around, seeing that the place under his feet was covered by the shade of bamboo, he sat down on the stone and waited for Gu Jiayi to come to see him.

If you keep moving, you have more to pay attention to. On the contrary, when you stop, you have to pay less attention.The place Lin Xuan chose was not bad either. There was only a clump of green bamboos that was not very dense, and it couldn't even hide people.Therefore, Gu Jiayi's eyes inevitably shifted to the young man sitting on the stone.

"Tired?" On this journey, he first rode a horse and then walked. It is normal for Lin Yu to be tired. Thinking of this, Gu Jiayi began to regret that he was angry and didn't take good care of others.

Lin Yu nodded, looking very honest, but there was a layer of smile in his eyes, which Gu Jiayi didn't see.

"Let's take a break, is this stone annoying?" Gu Jiayi's tone softened, seeing Lin Yan shaking his head and picking up a nearby stone to sit on.

The guards stayed away obediently, staying at an inaudible distance, but not too far away to block the sudden assassin or something.

After a while, Lin Yu suppressed his smile, and then slowly opened his mouth and said: "I can't stay out all the time. If I just stay in the courtyard, what difference does it make if I come to Jiangnan or not? These hundreds of thousands of miles of rivers Di, you can only see the truth when you go out. Besides, I will take you with me, nothing will happen."

Gu Jiayi put his arms on his knees, tilted his head and raised half of his sword eyebrows to look at him, his eyes darkened, "If you go any further, you will be assassinated sooner or later, why don't you be more open-minded and do more things, whether you will die or not is not sure." Right? What else is there to say? Staying in one place is also very dangerous, which is tantamount to waiting to die under the eyes of others?" He understands the truth inside, but he doesn't want this person to be in danger.

It's a set of things, right in the middle, Lin Yu suddenly feels a little guilty, but he is indeed in this situation in Jiangnan.It is also difficult to advance, and it is also difficult to retreat.Jin wants to thoroughly investigate this matter, or pull some officials off their horses, which is equivalent to pulling scales from local snakes, but he has no right to call in troops, which is equivalent to a soft persimmon with good face.To retreat is to temporarily expose the matter gently, and wait until the next day to investigate, but in the capital, can he be allowed to escape so easily?

Those officials and students who stubbornly believe that he can give Jiangnan a justice, can accept a prince who temporarily succumbs to the crisis of power?Can you understand his embarrassment and suffering?

None of them could, even if they could think clearly, they would not want to, nor would they understand the dangers he might face.Under the infinite glory, the hardships and hardships faced by those who bear it are unimaginable, but those who have never experienced it are addicted to the superficial pleasure.Those who think they are giving him their support, will only ask for more!

Lin Jue shifted his gaze to the cold-faced Gu Jiayi, seeing his thinner cheeks, feeling distressed and itchy.Softly said: "You have finished talking, what else can I use to coax you?"

"I've finished reading here. Take the materials I picked up and show them to the artisans. There's also lunch. Qulou in Quzhou is also famous. Why don't you go and have a look. Chiayi, let's go back!"

"Yeah." Gu Jiayi got up, stretched out his hand to give Lin Yu a hand, and pretended not to hear his coaxing.

But Lin Yu saw his earlobe secretly red, as if bleeding was about to bleed.I can't help but be thankful that even if the road ahead is difficult, there are still people who will accompany him and guard a pure land for him, and he can still have fun in the bitterness...

☆、Chapter 73

In the single room on the top floor of Qulou, Lin Bin sat on the top seat, in front of him was a round table with a dozen exquisite dishes on it.Looking at the bright and attractive colors, it doesn't make people have the interest to move their chopsticks.

All I could hear was a white-faced, beardless middle-aged man talking about the origin of each dish in official language at a rather fast pace.

Lin Bin claims to be a literati, but he is not that interested in knowing the allusions of every dish.Besides, the patriarch of the Qin Clan talked about how long it took for a quarter of an hour, but he didn't even touch his chopsticks, just let people look at them, so they can feel the taste of these dishes, okay?

He was bald and slandering, Qin Bulong was finally willing to stop, and asked Lin Bin and Qin Shui with a sense of accomplishment: "Which dish do you prefer, Your Highness and Xiao Qin, use more and use it to your heart's content!"

Qin Shui divided the serving chopsticks when he heard the sound, and Qin Buxiang realized that the dishes on the table hadn't moved at all. He lifted the small wine jar next to him, lifted the slightly wet bamboo lid, and poured Lin Bin a glass. Wine, said apologetically: "The old man was so excited when he saw His Highness that he forgot that His Highness was still hungry. It's really a sin. Hey, I'll punish myself with a drink!"

As he spoke, Qin Bucheng took up the wine glass in front of him and drank it down in one gulp, revealing the clean bottom of the bowl.

Lin Bin couldn't help but take a sip from his glass.

Qin Shui also rushed to speak, "Your Highness doesn't know that the patriarch is obsessed with wine, and the wine in this restaurant must taste good. It's just that I rushed to make amends earlier, and I guess I still want to drink more wine!"

Before Qin was not negative, Qin Shui was still closer to Lin Bin, and his words showed a bit.Lin Bin's side is naturally the same, even if Qin Shui's skills are better, the ones brought out by him can be regarded as his own, so he said face-savingly: "Where does Patriarch Qin lack this wine, if you want to drink, you can drink more! "

There is wine and food, and the three of them have the same heart, and the conversation is very harmonious.But because of Lin Bin's status, the topics all went towards what he wanted to hear.

Qin Bulong's face was slightly red, his body was a little unsteady, and he said: "Your Highness has done a good job this time, everything in the mountain area has been handled properly, and the leading general is a boy from Dingguo's family. All good."

He didn't pay attention to what he said, but Lin Bin immediately thought that Tang Anwen, the Duke of Dingguo's mansion, was Gu Jiayi's grandfather, and what about Gu Jiayi?He is from Lin Yu.

Political orientation is so strange, one person's affairs can often be related to a family, and outside the family, in-laws and the like are also included; but those family members and in-laws are not completely consistent and reliable, and in the end Everyone is wary of everything around them.

Lin Bin clearly divided Dingguo's mansion to Lin Yu's side. If he couldn't do it, he would be neutral, and it was absolutely impossible to stand on his side.He knew that he was not as good as Lin Yu, and even those under him were not as good as Lin Yu's people.The only thing he is better than Lin Yu is the stronger relatives and the love of Lin Yuanwu, and the full support of Qin Taishi. He and the Qin family are complementary!

Thinking of this, his patience with Qin Bushou has improved a lot, suppressing that point of discomfort, he followed his words and said: "My lord is brave, and it is normal for a family to have such children. In recent years, I have also heard My grandfather said that many sons of the Qin family have established civil and military affairs, and in time, it is possible for the family to have more than one family."

Qin Shui smiled and didn't want to get involved in this topic anymore. He is not the kind of person who has established himself, but he has the closest relationship with Grand Master Qin's branch.When he was a child, he was enlightened with Qin Wei.

Grand Master Qin is also worried?Hearing the news, Qin Bufei's surprise was covered up by surprise, and he smiled modestly and said: "They are all average in literature and martial arts, and have never passed the top three. If your highness is interested, you can also take one or two exams." , Let those boys learn a lot! The Qin family's ancestral house is said to be more than a hundred years old, and it will be flourishing now that His Highness is here!"

Lin Bin said: "This hall wants to go, but when I came out, my father was in a hurry. I planned to go to the mountain area tomorrow to see how the situation was handled. If it was all right, I would take back Yanshan and let the Frontier soldiers wiped out the mountain people, or attracted them to be good people, and honestly be my subjects of Great Chu."

"This matter..." Qin Bucheng poured another glass of wine, and a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Your Highness does not need to go out on this matter. From here to the mountain area, the express boat only takes one day, as long as His Highness Send a message, just remember to send the letter over there. To put it bluntly, do you still need your Highness to lead troops to the deep mountains to arrest people? The general who was said to be a traitor before was captured by the mountain people, and his reputation will not be restored when he comes back. gone."

Lin Bin thought of the civil and military disputes in the court for a while, and thought of the two familiar civil servants. A vague thought flashed through him, but he seemed to have never thought about it.

However, the idea of ​​staying in Quzhou deepened. Is it necessary for him to go to that dangerous place to torture himself?

When the people in this room were drinking, Gu Jiayi and Lin Yu in that room just rode horses into the inner city from outside the city, and then walked to Qulou.

A guard with silver on his body went to deal with the shopkeeper, and Gu Jiayi and Lin Yu went up to the private room on the second floor under the guidance of Xiaoer.

The waiter's waiter boasted that he had a sharp eye, but he didn't see the priority between Gu Jiayi and Lin Yu.These two guests are both dressed in rich and noble clothes, they don't look like ordinary people, and they have a close attitude, but they are brothers, right?It's a bit different.

Xiao Er was worried for a moment, and a strange expression appeared on his face, but then he smiled and asked: "The two guest officers came from a long way? Would you like to recommend local specialties?"

Lin Yu nodded, and said casually: "My little brother, tell me, what are the special dishes? I also heard that Qulou's special wine has a special taste."

Xiaoer smiled, thinking about it, he was also happy, and said in a brisk tone: "This guest officer said the same thing, there is a special wine making method in the building, and the taste of the wine is special. But the world is so big, our Qu Louqing dare not What are you appreciating. There are a few dishes that are often paired with Qu Louqing, and I ordered them for you, what do you think?"

Seeing the talkative guest, the younger brother couldn't help but smile brightly, so he was smart and responsible, and after a few words, he closed the door and went out.

After a while, several colorful dishes were served, and the waiter who led them in did not forget to say when he left: "After a while, a wine lady will come to deliver wine to you two."

Gu Jiayi had never heard of these small customs here, so he asked casually, "Is there any particularity about delivering wine?"

"Just look at it, and you will know whether you are particular about it or not?" Lin Yu said, picking up a tender green vegetable sprout with chopsticks, and eating it into his already empty stomach.Seeing Gu Jiayi's helpless look, Lin Yan smiled and picked up a hollowed-out dark green vegetable stem and fed it to Gu Jiayi's mouth.

Gu Jiayi opened his mouth to pick it up, and the base of his ears started to turn red again, but he still took advantage of no one to feed Lin Yu.But that piece of meat was too big, and Lin Jue's cheeks swelled up after eating it.

Lin Jue laughed softly, chewing on an unknown dish, and told Gu Jiayi, "Drinking alcohol on an empty stomach is not good, let's talk about it after eating!"

At this time, there was a light knocking sound outside the door, the force was relatively light so the sound was not loud, and it was easy to remind people of the wine lady mentioned earlier.

Gu Jiayi saw that Lin Yu was going to pick up vegetables again, so he said, "Come in."

The door was gently pushed open, and a woman in a green dress and a skirt with five-quarter sleeves came in gracefully. The chic sleeves revealed a pair of jade-white wrists, and her hands were holding the wine jar.The wine jar was small, and it was gently placed on the table, revealing the light blue paper pasted on the wine jar, on which the words "Qu Lou Qing" were written.

The woman looked about 25 or 30 years old, with a delicate face, but a slender figure and a graceful figure.The woman gave a full smile, and put her hand on the lid of the wine jar, "Today I'm presenting Qulouqing produced in Qulou, Quzhou. Some need to be drunk quickly. Other people’s wines will talk about the color, aroma, taste, and body of the wine in detail. You can taste and comment on this altar. If you have any comments, which are brilliant and reasonable, you can give them a free [-]-year Qulou Green.”

The wine jar was covered with a layer of white mud, the woman tapped the side with a small hammer, but the wine jar didn't move at all, but the mud cover was lifted by the wine lady.Under the mud cover is a layer of dark lotus leaves. The wine lady's vermilion lips parted lightly: "The mud cover is made of pear flower mud, the leaves are boiled lotus leaves, and the outer part is a bamboo cover. The guests can open it by themselves." open."

Picking up the mud cover and lotus leaf, Jiu Niang turned around and closed the door to exit the room.During this period, Gu Jiayi and Lin Yu didn't say a word. Two of them didn't want to say more, and it was also because of the wine lady. With just a few words, it made people feel that the untasteful wine on the table was the same as the wine lady. Generally full of a unique charm.

Lin Jue raised his eyebrows at Gu Jiayi, with a sly smile in his eyes, "Do you know why you are particular this time?" Lin Jue said, lifting the last bamboo cover left for the guests to open for Gu Jiayi and himself. Pour them all.

Gu Jiayi glanced at Lin Zhen, lowered his head and looked at the dishes, and tasted every dish before picking up the wine glass.

Although Gu Jiayi didn't remember to try the dishes until a shot later, Lin Yu felt that such a lover was too cute.If you say he is careful, it definitely doesn't count, but it couldn't be more meticulous when dealing with him.

After drinking the wine in the glass, Lin Yu said: "This restaurant is my private property, so don't be afraid of accidents. That boy Lin Bin is drinking on the top floor right now!"

Qin Mansion in Kyoto.

Grand Master Qin had read the news from the spies in the palace, and slapped the table at Qin Wei, who was very honest recently.

He gasped and said angrily: "You, you rebellious son, do you still think that your hands and feet can reach the sky?"

A sarcastic smile appeared on Qin Wei's expressionless face, he lowered his eyes and stared at the ground lightly.

Grand Master Qin swept the table with his sleeve, and the porcelain cup shattered to the ground.Following the panic, the old man with gray temples calmed down and asked in a deep voice, "Tell me, when did you start changing people in the palace? How long has it been going on?"

☆、Chapter 74

The silence in the not-so-bright room was almost eerie, but after the silence, Qin Wei suddenly sneered.Looking at Taishi Qin's eyes has never been calm, but let people know that there is a lot of hatred in his heart.

"After Wan'er died." Qin Wei took a step into Grand Master Qin. "Since I knew he was dead, daddy, you didn't care. Could it be that one day, I was poisoned to death silently, and daddy, you didn't do anything?"

"You are different, you are my only son." Grand Master Qin said in a hoarse voice, but for some reason he couldn't convince himself.He knew that if something happened to Qin Wei, maybe after a while of sadness, he would still live a quiet and peaceful life that was favored by the Holy One.But that's all hypothetical. After his grandson is gone, those people should know that the Qin family can't be touched anymore.

Grand Master Qin tried to appease Qin Wei, "The cause of Wan'er's death may not be what it appeared on the surface. If you can find out, Dad can also find out. What's more, if the prince's faction really wanted to poison Wan'er to death, how could they come outside the city gate?" ,Did you do it so blatantly? Even if you run counter to the crown prince, Dad can trust him as a man and won't act like that!"

Qin Wei laughed, and the laughter was empty, "Besides the prince's lineage, there are other people who have to go to great pains to harm my Wan'er. You don't believe the evidence, but my son does."

Qin Wei is the direct son of Grand Master Qin, while Qin Wan is Qin Wei's only heir.

Qin Wei's previous attitude only made people think that he didn't care much about Qin Wan.At this moment, he suddenly noticed that Qin Taishi remembered Qin Wei's doting on Qin Wan, almost to the point of giving everything.Even if the son who was once spoiled like that is a bit useless and reckless, he is still a treasure in his heart.

Just like Qin Wei and Grand Master Qin, this son really has no talent, and his scheming is too simple.It's just that this son, from a small baby who was enlightened to almost middle age, to the grandson who is now an adult, is still used to worrying.

Grand Master Qin sighed as if admitting defeat, and said weakly: "Tell me carefully, and try to cover up one or two things for your father. On the excuse that you are worried about your sister, go to resign and go home, and your sister begged for mercy. Presumably the Holy Majesty will not be too difficult."

At this time, I still want to give in. Some things just retreat again and again, and there is no way to retreat.Qin Wei was noncommittal to Grand Master Qin's proposal, instead he calmly sat back on his seat and picked up his teacup to drink.

After a while, he said coolly: "Why do you want me to resign? Then Lin Yuanwu is just an idiot, it's just a good birth!"

Grand Master Qin looked at him in disbelief. Could it be that this rebellious son is so bold that he wants to change the dynasty!

***

Jiangnan Quyuan.

Gu Jiayi and the others surrounded the mason in the middle with a little distance.Look at the big rough hands of the craftsman, holding the stone in one hand, and hitting it hard with a hammer in the other, the originally solid stone immediately shattered.

The pair of rough hands touched the broken stone, and then turned to the small stone on the other side, but the color of the stone on that side looked strange, and it was only pinched by the big hand, and it turned into powder and grass roots.

The stonemason raised his head and said in a rough voice: "The big stone in front is the hardness of a normal embankment, the one behind is not even as good as an earthen house, but it is mixed with some condensate powder and stone particles, so it is not bad for waterproofing, but it is unbearable. The flood hit. The person who thought of exchanging stones was clever, but unfortunately he didn’t use it on the right path.”

The result was as expected, and everyone immediately cursed and vented their anger.

Gu Jiayi picked up two small stones and calmly withdrew from the crowd.

When someone greeted him on the road, he also got a smile on his face, as if there was nothing in his heart.Only he himself knows, the heavy thoughts in his heart.

He still remembered how tragic the scene of the complete collapse of the river embankment three years later was, and almost half of Jiangnan was destroyed in that flood.

No, the flood was not actually the culprit. In the previous years, there were no such casualties or losses even with floods that were bigger than that.The biggest crimes are those officials who have been ineffective for many years, those rich businessmen who are skinny, and the crudely built river embankments.

Natural disasters are inevitable, but manpower can save them.

Clearing up this turbid officialdom is the best way to cure it.

It's just that Lin Yu's bold and resolute actions back then were supported by the entire court and the resentment of the people.But today's Lin Zhen, the only ones who can really rely on behind him are the little people like them who know the truth.

With thousands of military power in hand, Zhenjiang Mountain with one word.After feeling his own powerlessness, Gu Jiayi suddenly thought of this.

If he held the military power in his hand, why would Lin Zhen have to be constrained by these things if he wanted to do something.

He can almost see the wind and rain that his lover will face in the days to come, what else can he do besides facing it together?

Gu Jiayi took two quick steps, as if he had put aside those worries, and strode into Lin Yu's yard.

With a smile on his face, Baxi saw Gu Jiayi coming in, gave him the Nine Treasures he was carrying in his arms, and said "Master Gu, please help me watch" and ran away.

Jiu Bao squeaked twice, his furry body turned around, and bit Gu Jiayi's sleeve.

It was a small ball, but it didn't grow long in half a year. Gu Jiayi looked at the small thing in his hand, touched the smooth fur, and let it squeaky and squeaky.

Seeing Lin Yu, he asked, "Baxi gave me the Nine Treasures and ran away with a smile. What's there to be happy about?"

Lin Jue put down the pen in his hand, leaned back, and raised his face to look at Gu Jiayi.

The man not far away was dressed in black with a lean body and a long sword at his waist. If he read correctly, there was a soft sword blade wrapped in his curved belt.The momentum is condensed, and it is a bit scary at a glance.It's just that all the momentum at the moment has been destroyed by the presumptuous Nine Treasures in his hand.

As he looked around, Gu Jiayi approached, and stretched out the messy little thing in his hand.

Lin Yu took Jiubao with both hands, "What's wrong with hugging, this can be regarded as Baxi's younger brother, he took care of him so smooth, he was more attentive than serving me!"

Gu Jiayi didn't know that he liked this little thing as much as Baxi.The idea of ​​Ai Wu and Wu has been guessed thousands of times in my heart.

"You don't like it?" Gu Jiayi looked at Lin Yu with clear eyes, and frowned slightly, looking really innocent.

"No." Lin Yu blurted out with a smile. "I don't like it. You gave it to me. I'll take care of it!"

Unlike cushions and earth dragons, the tables and chairs in the south are all high-legged. Lin Zhen sat on a spacious carved pear wood chair and looked at Gu Jiayi with a smile, as if there was water in his eyes.

Gu Jiayi looked at the chair, seeing that there was no room for two people, he suddenly envied the little thing Jiubao: "I don't like it, it always takes advantage of your arms."

Lin Yu smiled and didn't speak, if Gu Jiayi made a small circle, it would be fine to let him sit in his arms, nothing else.

Gu Jiayi glanced at the pen and paper on the table, and remembered the question he asked at the beginning, "What are you busy with? You and Baxi are very secretive. The stones outside have been inspected, and the stones that were covered later are good materials. Such a river embankment must be once and for all within a hundred years."

Thinking of stone materials, Lin Yu's good mood is not so good, but Gu Jiayi's comfort is also satisfactory.He stood up, took the pile of letters collected together on the table, and took out one and handed it to Gu Jiayi.

"Read the letter!"

The envelope had been opened, and Gu Jiayi directly pulled out the letter paper inside.A thin sheet with light-colored flower traces and some jerky handwriting printed on it.

Scanning ten lines at a glance, and then looking back carefully.Joy also appeared between Gu Jiayi's brows and eyes, and he looked up at Lin Yu, thinking how could this person be so capable?So smart?

Lin Yu patted his forehead, "But I didn't dare to believe it, and I didn't believe it at first either. But Bei Yuanqi's letter was written sincerely. Looking at the whole text, it was just asking me to treat Beiman people well in the future, and I didn't want to This thing is of no benefit to him at all. It's just that the seal that was sent later has to be convincing."

Gu Jiayi nodded, and said happily: "In the ten years since the end of the war, if the northern barbarians gradually adapt to the Great Chu, it is feasible to finally integrate." As he spoke, his eyes turned to Lin Yu again, "Internal and external troubles , now the matter has been settled. On the Jiangnan side, put in more effort, after all, there are still people who care about you."

In fact, what Gu Jiayi wanted Lin Zhen to pay more attention to was not Jiangnan, but himself.But even if he spoke a little vaguely, it was very clear in Lin Yu's eyes.

Looking up, the two looked at each other and smiled, and the letter paper scattered on the table was Beiman sent by Bei Yuanqi.In time, Lin Yu is also confident that such a place will be completely integrated into the Great Chu, and that territory will also be included in the territory of the Great Chu.

When the two of them no longer had to worry about Beiman and rejoiced.Grand Master Qin had already reluctantly agreed to Qin Wei's decision, and arranged a lot of people to intercept the leak of the news, lest Lin Yuanwu find out before he acted, and an imperial decree ruined the lives of the whole family.

At the same time, under the interference of Grand Master Qin, some things that Qin Wei didn't notice were also exposed.

Grand Master Qin's original intention was to let Qin Wei resign and return to his hometown, but what made him change his mind was that Qin Wei was determined, and the second was that the matter had reached an irreconcilable point.Under the arrangement of a force, Qin Wei's men actually sneaked into Lin Yuanwu's palace. Even if it was only on the periphery, it touched the emperor's bottom line!

What Taishi Qin noticed was that strange force, if it wasn't for the cover of that force, Qin Wei would have been discovered long ago.So, where is the help?Or the titmouse in the back?

It's just that no matter whether he helps or not, Grand Master Qin can't stop Qin Wei who is getting more and more crazy.Qin Wei seems to have collected all the hatred and ambition together, coupled with madness, it has become a destructive force that cannot be ignored.

A person's ability, when used to save, is always insignificant, but when used to destroy, the effect achieved is worlds apart.

This autumn in Kyoto, after the lively September, no one would have imagined that October would be bloody and bloody.

☆、Chapter 75

The next day, after Gu Jiayi's morning exercise, he and Lin Yu had breakfast together.Fang said: "I'm going out today."

"Where are you going?" This was the first time Gu Jiayi wanted to go out by himself, and Lin Yu couldn't help being curious.

Gu Jiayi fumbled in his bosom, took out half of the purple bronze medal, and showed it to Lin Yu: "Go to Qingyuan Academy, this is the token my father gave me."

Lin Jue reached out and took the familiar half from Gu Jiayi's hand, stroked the writing on the back and the port, and said with certainty: "The other half is where I am."

As he said that, he looked up at Gu Jiayi who had stood up, and said with some emotion: "I thought the other side was lost, but I didn't expect that Gu family is from your line."

Lin Yu stood up, "You shouldn't know, there is a reason for this token. The Gu family and the Jiang family controlled the lifeline of Da Chu more than a hundred years ago. Many people think that those salt and iron are important items of the state. But officials are the key to maintaining the court. Your Gu family is responsible for the establishment of many academies, and even Qingyuan Academy, which has cultivated the most students, was founded by the Gu family. And the Jiang family hides deeper than the Gu family, like It is a back arrow in the hands of the emperor, no one knows where their people are and what they are doing, but without exception, all officials are under their supervision."

"Back then, the officialdom was upright, and the Jiang family's supervision was useless. The spies raised a lot, and the hornbills also appeared at that time. Unfortunately, the last pair also died."

"A hundred years have passed, and everyone who knew about it at that time is gone, but the royal family's things are well preserved. The Jiang family is so low-key that only my mother is left. I guess the real Gu family lineage is probably only your father. What a coincidence!"

Gu Jiayi also guessed about these things, but only the person involved can understand this clearly.What Lin Zhen read was the royal secret collection, while Gu Jiayi got to know it through the "Gu Shizhi" in the ancestral hall.

Gu Jiayi still vaguely remembers the aspiration to write his name on a book, the excitement mixed with entanglement.It's just that after a while, there is an illusion that it's like a dream, as if those things have passed for a long time.

However, only a short period of time has passed, and it was only in this short period of time that the rewards and harvests given by fate were so good that he felt that it was an illusion.

Sensing something wrong with Gu Jiayi's eyes, Lin Yu asked suspiciously, "What? I guessed wrong?"

"That's right." Gu Jiayi took Lin Yu's hand and put the purple bronze medal back into his arms. "I just think of my original ambition, but now half of it has been achieved. In order to complete the other half, I still have to work hard."

"Ambition? To be famous? To make contributions?" Lin Xuan asked.

Gu Jiayi kissed Lin Yu's face, and said nonsense, "Marry a wife. I'm leaving!"

Seeing the back of Gu Jiayi running away, Lin Yu was amused and annoyed, but then said to Jiang Qian, who was secretly laughing on the beam, "What are you laughing at, come down!"

Jiang Qian turned over like a pigeon, and landed handsomely from the beam, kneeling on the ground with one knee, with an extremely serious face, as if the person who just laughed secretly was not him.

The matter of love between children is the most private thing. Even if Lin Yu has long been used to his every move being watched by others, he is still a little embarrassed by the daughter-in-law that Gu Jiayi blurted out.

That person clearly knew it, so why didn't he know how to restrain himself.

Lin Jue was distracted, and Jiang Qian just kept his head down, not looking at things that shouldn't be looked at, and sticking to his duty.

After a while, Lin Yu, who came back to his senses, asked, "How is the evidence collected? Have you found the account book?"

Jiang Qian's voice was clear and clear, and he said quickly and clearly: "Over the years, the records of treasury transfers have been kept in one copy at the Ministry of Households, and one at the Jiangnan Governor's Mansion. From the Governor to the governor to the magistrate and other subordinate officials, there are separate records. There are records on both sides. , but some volumes were not found. However, according to the words of the master, there are good and bad materials in various parts of the river embankment, and those officials who are seriously corrupt, we have made a deal."

"Including Quzhou, if there is any real evidence, after returning to Beijing, let's use this place for surgery." At this time, Lin Yu had lost the tenderness and softness facing Gu Jiayi, leaving only the coldness and hardness of a ruler. .

The embankment on Quzhou's side may not be the worst, but it has long been known in the court, and it is only legitimate to start dealing with it from here.Jiang Qian's sullen voice should be, and the young face is extremely calm.Suddenly, this young man has changed a lot since he was on the grassland.

Those changes were not limited to the face, from a wanton spy to the leader, Jiang Qian's growth during this period is not insignificant.He may not be as light as Jiang Wan, able to plan affairs in the depths of the grassland, but given him a chance, he will also shine.

Similarly, changes have also happened to many people. Needless to say, Lin Yu is becoming more and more mature. Gu Jiayi is also like a long sword that has not yet been sharpened, and is changing into a sharp and cold weapon. Under the influence of Lin Zhen, Gu Jiayi's vision, vision and even heart are breaking through to a new level.

The distance from Quyuan to Qingyuan Academy is not far, and they belong to two states.However, a river canal crossed the winding official road, which changed the one-day journey to half a day. If the wind was favorable and the boatman was skilled, half a day would be enough.

Because it took a while to go out, when Gu Jiayi arrived at the academy, the students in the academy had finished their morning classes, and the academy was full of people.So, they saw the Shanzhang's bookboy leading a rough guy into the Shanzhang's courtyard at the back of the mountain.

The small courtyard is very simple, there is a common medicinal herb planted in an open space, which can be regarded as full of greenery.From this small land, it can be seen that the owner is a pragmatic person.

There is an old locust tree in the courtyard, and under the tree is an old man whose hair and beard are dyed with hoarfrost.The old man had a thin face and was wearing a simple book long shirt, which reminded Gu Jiayi of Jiang Jiu.So he bent down and said, "Good morning, the mountain."

The head of the mountain said lightly: "There is no need to be too polite, if it is not according to Xiaojiu's ranking, this old man would not be worthy of your courtesy."

This attitude is a little cold.Gu Jiayi's thought flashed through his mind, but he said with a smile on his face: "Of course we should follow the ranking of the masters, the younger ones are just the juniors."

Like Jiang Jiu, Shan Chang had a long and neat beard. He stroked it lightly, his face neither sad nor happy, and he didn't show any importance to Gu Jiayi who was holding the token.Ask politely and distantly: "But what's important? You can talk to the old man. If you can help, the old man will not shirk. If I can't, there are many students in the academy, so you can try your best. "

If Gu Jiayi came back this time, it was just to get closer and meet people. It would be even better if he could get some pointers.I didn't expect the head of the mountain to be so direct, and asked him why he came here.

Naturally, such a rare opportunity cannot be let go, and the most difficult and important thing must be asked.Even if the head of the mountain can't solve it, he has to raise a few ideas.Gu Jiayi thought for a while, then asked: "The head of the mountain thinks the situation in the south of the Yangtze River is the best way for the prince to act?"

☆、Chapter 76

The old man's white face frowned slightly for a moment, and then he returned to his indifferent appearance. For a short time, almost no one saw him.As the head of the mountain who teaches and educates people, he is a little dissatisfied that Gu Jiayi went to join the martial arts, not to mention that Gu Ye also came from Qingyuan Academy, he hopes that the kid in front of him can inherit Gu Ye's calm and intelligent, and he may not be able to be another right hand man in the future Prime Minister, do more practical things for Da Chu.It's just that this hope is too embarrassing. Individuals have their own way, and Gu Jiayi will not be the next Gu Ye.

However, Gu Jiayi's keeping Lin's affairs in mind made him puzzled.You know, Gu Ye is an imperial faction.

He asked: "This world is still in power today. Why do you defend the prince so much?"

Gu Jiayi asked him back: "The head of the mountain thinks that today's king is comparable to the prince? Besides, I am still young, and it is reasonable to follow the new king. The prince has a noble character, a magnanimous heart, and loves the people, not to mention that he is not absurd. What's wrong with him, I wholeheartedly protect him, think about my lord's affairs, and care about my lord's worries, what's so strange about it? I never followed the crown prince's plot to kill him, and did those unspeakable things."

In Gu Jiayi's heart, Lin Yu couldn't be better, but in fact, he has a very good reputation among the common people, among the students, and among the officials.The reason for this is a certain amount of human impetus, and it also has its own good character, which is good enough and is always not afraid of being questioned.

These piles on the bright side are all good, even the head of the mountain can't say anything.And what about the prince's shortcomings?
