Clam Pearl

In the summer and March of this year, the three old guys, Yong Guogong, Huai Guogong, and Song Guogong went out to travel around the world. Feng Shang didn't follow them.

In Dingying's social class, Feng Shang was just a tiny figure, not even an ant.

Before leaving Beijing, Ding Ying completely entrusted Feng Shang to his son Ding Huachun. He said that Mr. Feng loves miscellaneous learning. Although he has no special skills in politics, he can be regarded as a knowledgeable and lovely person. In this way, I will help him arrange the arrangements and take a little care of him.

Ding Huachun responded without mentioning it, only father and son, whether he cares about it or not is unknown.

But it is said that that day in the ten-mile Changting Pavilion, I drank the farewell wine of my colleagues from the younger generation, listened to seven or eight farewell songs, and wrote various banners. The gold and jade belt has been blessed for decades, but people can't leave it alone, and leave from now on, the sky is high and the earth is wide and the scenery is smooth... I hope you take care, and I will go...

After finishing speaking, he called Hai and the others to get in the car, laughed and left, very unrestrained.

These farewell people didn't know that in the early morning of that day, Prince Zhao Yuanxiu personally sealed all the files of Wei Guogong Geng Cheng's case. Regarding Feng Shang, he was not unsuspected in the case, but suspicions also have priorities. The officials involved in handling the case analyzed Feng Shang in this way:

Feng Chang was born in a poor family. Looking at his history, he had no kindness to him in the previous dynasty, and he has no grievances in this dynasty. Although he has close contacts with the two governments, his background, his family background, his rights, and his money are not qualified to commit crimes...

In short, he, Feng Shang, is a young man from a poor family, and there must be conditions and incentives for committing crimes. From the perspective of Prince Zhao Yuanxiu and others, although the relationship between Feng Shang and Geng Cheng is Zhao Yuanxiu Introduced by Yuanxiang, but why did he commit crimes?What do you use to commit crimes?With his poor family background?With his social connections?With the rights he doesn't even have?

In this way, Feng Shang got rid of the suspicion, just like Yun Guang's own analysis, relying on who he suspects, Feng Shang who is put on the bright side, he is not worthy of those big figures to work hard, it is really a case with ten connections, Feng Shang He can't connect anywhere.

Speaking of which, the biggest reason for sealing up this case is that Zhao Yuanxiang, king of Jinbei, finally woke up, but he turned into a fool. Duke Geng Cheng didn't even know his language ability, his hunger and fullness.

I really can't go on chasing him, the last blood of the first emperor has become a fool, and if we continue to investigate, he will be a bully.

After the death of Ye Yunguang that night, a group of murderers fell in the Ningjun Palace. These people were all eunuchs under the 24th Yamen under Yunguang in the previous dynasty. The old dignitaries, these old dignitaries have nothing to do with Feng Shang.

What's more worth mentioning is that, except for the stiff-boned hanging himself, none of the dozens of surviving confessions involved Feng Shang.

In this way, Yun Guang ended the case perfectly with his own death.

However, Zhao Yuanxiu and the others also know that solving this case is a lengthy process, just like the remnants of the previous dynasty. It doesn't take as long as decades. You can't pull out those hidden threads one by one. .

This summer, when Dingying and the others left, Gu Zhao did not see him off at the Ten-mile Pavilion. He waited at the Twenty-mile Pavilion away from here, and Zhao Chunrun, who was in plain clothes, was waiting with him.

At the beginning of Sishi, birds were singing in the green trees near the Ershili Pavilion, and the mountain breeze was blowing. Gu Zhao and Zhao Chunrun were sitting in the pavilion. They seldom came out, and even less had such leisurely time.

In this way, the scenery behind him may not be top-notch, but he is also relaxed by the surrounding atmosphere.

When he came out this time, Gu Zhao still brought peaches. The last time Dingying’s family hosted a banquet, the child was still talking absurdly word by word, but who would have thought that it would not be long before this baby would start talking a lot. Express your opinion on the world.

While waiting for others, Gu Zhao was too idle, so he asked Tao Zi: "Baby, Daddy and Daddy fell into the river together, who do you save first?"

Zhao Chunrun was stunned by Gu Zhao's shamelessness.

With regard to addressing, Gu Zhao intentionally does not distinguish between big and small, so that Tao Zi calls the wrong name when she is young, and everyone will think it is a child talking nonsense, so they won't get into it, because they are all fathers anyway.

Tao Zi looked left and right, he was a little puzzled, why did he fall into the river?Do you want to save yourself?I know how to save him. Every time my father pretends to fall down or has a stomachache, he will ask himself to save him.

Every time he quickly ran over to save someone, he would be rewarded with various kisses and snacks.

Saving people is a very good thing, but he also knows that he is young, so who should the two fathers save first?

Taozi began to think seriously, Gu Zhao and Zhao Chunrun looked at it with a smile on their face, only one shamelessly went to grab some snacks, while the other took out plum candy from his purse and held it in his hand to eat or not.

How shameless!Sun Xi didn't even want to read it, so she had to turn her head aside...

Tao Zi is dressed up very beautifully today. He has shaved off all around his head, leaving only the hair in the middle braided upside down. He is wearing a light green cloud silk gown, shorts of the same color, and cloth sandals designed by Gu Zhao , and around his neck is a delicate silver lock with a bell on it, and it will jingle when he walks.

In this way, Taozi loves bouncing da da the most now, and sometimes she can enjoy it with sweat beads on her head.

Regarding the pair of cloth sandals, Ah Run complained a while ago that the good-looking children wore a pair of hole shoes. Later, when he saw that Gu Zhao was pulling on a pair of hole shoes comfortably, he couldn't bear it anymore and ordered someone to make them. After wearing a few pairs, they were really comfortable without smelly feet, so he wore them for a walk in the palace over there.

Later, I don’t know how these shoes got out. In short, the emperor loved to wear them, and naturally the ministers also liked to wear them. Gradually, everyone who can afford cloth shoes in Beijing this summer has a pair of these shoes under their feet.

Taozi looked at plum candy and then looked at dim sum, what should I do, what should I do if I want to eat it?The child was very embarrassed and looked around asking for help, the pavilion suddenly fell silent, everyone was smiling and waiting for Taozi's answer.

Blinking the extremely small pair of red phoenix eyes on the fat face, after Taozi desperately asked for help to no avail, the child finally struggled to find the answer, and said crisply: "Taozi... Taozi jumped into the fat (water), and became, Turned into...well...became a nong (dragon)...just...just brought Daddy and Daddy up (Nai)..."

Zhao Chunrun laughed out loud at the moment, hugged Taozi and played the piano, and stuffed the plum candy into the child's mouth, then he grabbed Gu Zhao's snack and threw it into his own mouth, saying triumphantly: " It really is my child, look at how old he is, he is already flexible, this alone is a hundred times better than his stupid brother!"

Gu Zhao suddenly became unhappy. Although he was very happy to hear this, it would be wrong to become a dragon. He didn't care how happy Ah Run was, how he hugged his youngest son and kissed him. He grabbed Tao Zi and began to correct him: "You can't become a dragon, you have to become a fish!"

Taozi is unwilling, how can a fish be as powerful as a dragon?

He shouted: "Become a Nong (dragon)!"

Gu Zhao's voice was not low: "Become a fish!"

"Nong Nong (Dragon)"

"fish!"

Zhao Chunrun picked up the child and saw that the little guy's eyes were so red, he gave Gu Zhao a blank look and said, "Look at you! I made you cry, what's wrong with my son becoming a dragon? Why can't he become a dragon? If it doesn’t work out next year, I’ll take him in as a foster son! I, Tao’er, can do whatever I want, and if it doesn’t work out, it’s okay to ask your brother to give you a king with a different surname tomorrow, we are dragons!”

Gu Zhaodu laughed angrily: "It seems like you can change, give me a try... Come on, come on, you can make a cloud and rain for the grandfather, it is really impossible to call a drought thunder for the grandfather, flying A half circle is enough? If you don’t want to be a good person, you must be a long worm..."

Zhao Chunrun stretched out his hand and gave Gu Zhao a slap in the face. Taozi immediately refused, and slapped Zhao Chunrun twice. Gu Zhao saw that he was beating someone and was about to reprimand him, but he didn't want Sun Xi to bow his head and say, "Master! There's a convoy over there." Well done, what are you beating someone for, so cute and smart, you get beaten for saying nice things?The county prince is becoming more and more fatherless.

They looked up, and sure enough, on the official road over there, the lead horse had already arrived ahead of time, a dozen carriages lined up behind the lead horse, and civilian guards lined up on both sides of the line.

After that team, there was a very long line of family children, and these children had to walk about fifty miles to see each other off.

Gu Zhao didn't feel anything when he saw the excitement over there, but Zhao Chunrun next to him suddenly said inexplicably: "If you say that the descendants are prosperous, no one can compare with these three families. There are hundreds of people busy with nothing, and they don't do business every day. They are everywhere.

Now, seeing these children are eating the family's money and food, playing silk and bamboo, playing horses and gambling every day, if they are going to be successful, they have to look at Zhuang Chengxiu's family, they are all born in a poor family, have endured hardships, suffered hardships, and know how to advance and retreat , know how to cherish..."

When Gu Zhao heard this, he put Tao Zi into Xin Zai's arms, and told him to go up the mountain to play with Tao Zi. Although he followed Zhao Chunrun out, he followed far behind the team and did not move forward.

But he didn't know that Ding Ying got off the bus and chattered to his son at the stop over there: "Look at how other people are messing around. They used to say that he was close to the prince, but now it seems... The Lord treats him differently, hey, people from the old Gu family are always different from others, you should learn from it..."

Ding Chunhua glanced over there from a distance, saying that it was impossible not to be envious, but who could quietly serve Prince Bai for so many years, how much money the seven counties can buy each year, how many businesses they govern, United Foundry, if people say no, then don’t, if they say no, then don’t touch it at all.

Can Ding Chunhua do it instead?Ding Chunhua thought about it for herself, but she could only chuckle and shake her head. An extraordinary person walked an extraordinary path, and now the guardian stars are re-ranked. Feet, gritted your teeth to compare, it is also incomparable.

Ding Ying and the others got out of the car, looking old, staggering from there, Huan Hai fell down twice on the road, and the three old oranges, who were crying and spitting and snot flying, half-crawled over .

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty..."

Zhao Chunrun didn't know what was going on, maybe he was showing his true feelings, maybe he was addicted to acting, he opened his hands and walked quickly to greet her: "Old Aiqing...Aiqing..."

Gu Zhao clicked his tongue twice, and really didn't want to watch it. They all have Oscar's foundation, and they are no better than them, so he should be more honest and stay behind.

In this way, after the meeting there, they started to hold hands, drink wine, and write poems...

Are you annoying... Is it interesting to do this every day?

Over there, there was a big drama among the monarchs and ministers. Dingying and the others called their beloved sons and grandsons... one by one to introduce them to the Holy One. Zhao Chunrun took the exam one by one over there, admiring the gadgets on his body Son, I didn't have enough on my body, so someone prepared gifts for them. When they arrived, they slowly brought in a cart of pens, inks, papers and inkstones and various elegant utensils. After admiring the things, Zhao Chunrun began to rack his brains to praise them.

In other words, the emperor should not do it either.

After these ink marks, Gu Zhao also went over to give it away, accompanied him with three glasses of wine, and said something like a safe journey, so he stepped aside.

Everyone knows that this is the last political show in the life of the three dukes. The next time the monarch and his ministers meet again, no, maybe next time, when they hear the news of the death of these three, His Majesty will cry again and give them a set date. Posthumous title, now Gu Zhao knows that what they have won is respect and virtue, and meritorious deeds.

In the blink of an eye, the inner and outer three floors surrounded him, and now he took the three old ministers up the mountain behind him.

Gu Zhao didn't like to go, so he sat in the pavilion to enjoy the shade.

Those three families had children who couldn't get around, so they looked for an opportunity to show their faces near Gu Zhao.

This is really quite an interesting phenomenon. If you think about it carefully, Gu Zhao has already grown up like this at this time, and has become a kind of ladder for the powerful to look up to and for ordinary people to progress.

He sat for a while, and someone over there was composing a poem, listened carefully, but there was a voice that was very familiar, Gu Zhao turned his face and looked, yo, he is really an acquaintance.

Gu Zhao was immediately happy. He leaned his body on the railing of the pavilion and shouted to the other side: "Flying Swallow! Come here..."

Hou Bo immediately knew that he had made the right bet, so he raised his face and smiled, beckoning to his children and bringing a group of people over.

After the person came over, his attitude was very unrestrained and casual. After singing a deep fat promise, he said very affectionately: "It's been a long time since I've seen Uncle Seven. You are always free, why don't you go to accompany Shengjia?"

Gu Zhao beckoned him into the pavilion, ordered someone to pour tea for him, and said, "What am I going to do? Are there too many people to go? I said you haven't changed. You were still hiding by Maochang's side and pretending to be serious a few days ago. .”

Hou Burton laughed immediately. He stretched out his hand and rubbed it under his nose a few times. He was also a little embarrassed. There was no other way. This little uncle felt embarrassed when he met him for the first time. No matter what, he couldn't treat him as an adult. , Thinking of the things this guy has done, how he doesn't yearn for, how doesn't admire, he should be like this, it's a pity, when he's a generation older... he can't be affectionate.

Hearing Gu Zhao teasing him, he chuckled indifferently and said: "The above are all surnamed, Xiahoude, our family...that's the third-class star, but it's not as bright as others. After the surname, then Of course it was later."

Gu Zhao smiled, and greeted all the children with the last name to come over, asked their names one by one, and rewarded them. After the rewards were over and sent them to stay there, he turned back and continued chatting with Houbai.

Gu Zhao saw that Xiao Lang was still handsome, so he liked it even more. He pointed to the group of disciples who had gone away and said, "If you don't go, don't go. Why restrain the disciples and waste their future? Call them Let’s go up the mountain too.” There’s still half a carload of things left, so A-Run will appreciate the well-done poems.

Hou Bai changed to a closer seat and sat down, picked up the hem of the cloth robe he was wearing, and began to fan the wind vigorously. God, Miaozi, a well-known celebrity in the world, and besides..." Hou Bai hesitated for a moment, sat up and asked in a low voice: "Uncle Seven...nephew wants to ask you something."

Gu Zhao was taken aback, then leaned back and looked at him strangely: "Please?"

Houbai nodded: "Ah! Well! Please tell me the truth."

Gu Zhao pointed to a place far away and said, "Sit over there and ask carefully."

Hou Bai laughed, stood up and sat there with his hands on his lap obediently.

Seeing that he sat down, Gu Zhao asked him, "What do you want me to ask?"

Hou Bai looked around and saw that it was very safe, so he asked Gu Zhao, "Uncle Qi, is there going to be a war... the northwest?"

Gu Zhao was startled, and looked around, then turned back to look at Houbai: "How do you know?"

Hou Bai smiled: "I figured it out myself. Seventh Uncle doesn't know. My nephew hasn't had much success these years, so I got a job as a doctor in the Ministry of Industry, and assisted in some miscellaneous things. Coincidentally, the military Miscellaneous work is in charge of my nephew, a few days ago, Mr. Fu Ji... Uh, no, Mr. Fu went and allocated [-] dan of high carbon, and the note came from my nephew, tell me, can I not know?"

Gu Zhao laughed when he heard the words: "You are so weird, one hundred thousand dan is not much, why did you think of this?"

Houbai replied: "Not many, but what about the plum blossom nails used for making chariots? That's [-] catties. How many catties of plum blossom nails have the Ministry of Industry kept in these years? No, these days we have made a note, and they are all over the world. The iron market is helping with deployment... Uncle Qi, don't hide it from me... Anyway, let me hurt my nephew, and give my poor juniors, who can't get in the crowd, a future! Anyway, we The two families are in-laws, and my sister is Maochang's daughter-in-law, you see, we are not far away, if something good happens, why don't you think of me first?"

Gu Zhao said nothing, just looked at Houbai with a hint of admiration.

Hou Bai put away his smiling face and straightened his back to let him see.

In other words, the aristocratic family in Beijing has all kinds of children. The older generation is like Ding Ying on the mountain, and they are already showing signs of fatigue, but what about the next generation?Judging from Hou Bai's words alone, this kid is really talented, he knows how to exploit, and he can see where there is an opportunity.

At this rare moment, he didn't want to go up the mountain to accompany Shengjia, but to seek a decent background for his descendants at the foot of the mountain, and wanted to rely on solid military exploits to advance to the next level.

For this point, it is worth Gu Zhaogao to look at him a few times.
