Lord Shoufu, your wife has escaped!

"Heh, heh heh..." Xiao Yu wiped his sweat and struggled to his deathbed, "How could it be, it was my sister-in-law who wanted to open up a new peak in her career, so I recommended him to Fengcheng. "

"Look, isn't it good now? My sister-in-law is capable, she can shine wherever she is, and make Yang Hai half dead in one fell swoop. We don't have to worry too much about Yang Hai when we start a war with the Xiongnu. Isn't it time and fate?"

Xiao Yu looked sincere: "It is said that the times create heroes, and my sister-in-law must have such an environment to better display her abilities. He doesn't want to stay in the capital all day long."

"Oh, that's it." Gu Mingzhou smiled, lowered his head to drink tea, his expression was calm, and it was impossible to tell whether he believed it or not.

Xiao Yu's heart was pounding, he was not sure what Gu Mingzhou wanted to do.

But to be honest, he himself was convinced by what he just said.Couldn't it be, if it wasn't for going to Yanghai, coupled with the catastrophe this year, would Bai Yuxin have this opportunity to show his talent and get the title of Imperial Merchant bestowed by the emperor?

In the end, I have to thank him, Xiao Yu, if he hadn't suggested at that time, Bai Yuxin is still in the capital, living a small life guarding the one-acre land.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that what he said was right, Xiao Yu became more confident, and couldn't help laughing: "Mingzhou, back then, the frontier needed you, and my sister-in-law needed space to flex their muscles. It will be a matter of time before we part ways, so why bother to take this as an excuse?" How about blaming me? Besides, I’m not living as I wished, and I’m still entangled in what to do with those little things in the past.”

Gu Mingzhou grunted, and raised his eyelashes: "So, when you sent someone to send that letter to Bai Yuxin, it was for us?"

Xiao Yu had completely forgotten about this, and almost couldn't maintain his expression, he immediately laughed loudly: "What letter, brother Gu Xian, what are you talking about, why can't I understand it?"

"It seems that we need to find some witnesses to ask, so that Lord Xiao can admit it." Gu Mingzhou rubbed his chin, looking thoughtful, "I told Dongbai to throw away the letter at the beginning, Dongbai, Xia The pine tree was given to me by Lord Xiao, but it doesn’t matter at all, and it’s not impossible.”

"Then I have to find out the servant who delivered the letter back then. It just so happens that I have a photographic memory and I still remember what that servant looked like. If I walk around Mr. Xiao's house, I will most likely be able to find that servant."

"If Master Xiao still wants to deny it..." Gu Mingzhou smiled and became more amiable, "I have to ask Yu Xin to come out and confront you face to face, let's see what you said back then."

Xiao Yu: "..."

He almost couldn't hold back his face, so when he was completely at a disadvantage, he suddenly slapped the table and got up, and said angrily: "It's nothing to do with me if you two split up. If I break up you, I can get more salary, or more. A long piece of meat?"

"Since Mr. Gu doesn't trust me so much, then I have nothing to say. Think what you like!"

He actually raised his foot and made a gesture of going away. This move is very good at making a head start. If Gu Mingzhou hadn't been in the officialdom for so many years, I'm afraid everyone would have believed his words.

It's just a pity that Gu Mingzhou is not so easy to deceive, if he wants to deceive, he is the one who deceives people.

The corner of Gu Mingzhou's mouth slightly raised: "What Master Xiao said is that I really shouldn't doubt you."

On the contrary, Xiao Yu was surprised, he didn't expect him to believe in himself so easily, and the steps he was about to step out of were stunned there, a little bit embarrassed.

"If you think about it, a broad-minded person like Mr. Xiao, how could he remember my reluctance to support you as the first assistant? Even if Mr. Xiao failed to take the position of first assistant and lost in the battle, it is impossible to blame him. Come on my head."

Gu Mingzhou spoke reasonably, but Xiao Yu's expression became more and more ugly in his left sentence "Shoufu" and right sentence "Defeated".

At the beginning, he had put in so much effort to win the position of Chief Assistant, but later on he managed to get Gu Mingzhou's support, but he couldn't compare to that old Yu Taiqing at all.

In the final analysis, it is still a word, the emperor just trusts Yu Taiqing, if he refuses to trust him, no matter how hard he tries, it will be useless.

This incident has always been a scar in his heart for the past two years, but Gu Mingzhou exposed it in a few sentences. He still couldn't refute it, so he had to smile to cover up the pain in his heart that was about to bleed.

Gu Mingzhou's smile widened, and he said sincerely: "In my opinion, Yu Shoufu is not very good now, he is just a pedantic old man, how can Mr. Xiao come close to the hearts of the people?"

Xiao Yu was dubious: "You really think so?"

"It doesn't matter what I think, what matters is what the people think, what the emperor thinks." Gu Mingzhou gave him an inscrutable look, "Does Master Xiao want to change his image in the eyes of the emperor?"

"What are you talking about? What's wrong with my image? Is it bad?" Xiao Yu blew his beard and stared, cursed a few times, and approached him very honestly, "Tell me, how can I change?"

"According to my humble opinion, if Lord Xiao asks for orders immediately and rushes to the frontier to serve the country, the emperor will definitely have a place in his heart in the future."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yu became angry on the spot, thinking that Gu Mingzhou was fooling him.

Didn't he just hate him for fooling the two of them to the frontier, so he wanted to get revenge?He will believe it to be a ghost!

Move your feet and walk again.

But Gu Mingzhou could only hear Gu Mingzhou speaking unhurriedly: "Did Master Xiao not see clearly what the emperor wants?"

"The emperor wants to make great achievements and leave a name in history, who doesn't know?" Xiao Yu became impatient.

Gu Mingzhou was surprised: "Since my lord knows how to cater to Shangyi, do you still have to be an official to offer advice? If you want to leave a name in history, then the most important thing in the emperor's heart is the matter of the frontier fortress? My lord shares the worries of the emperor and does things well." If you are beautiful, do you still worry that the emperor will forget the merits of your lord?"

"My lord, don't forget how I was promoted and how Bai Yuxin became so successful. Isn't it because I subdued the foreign enemies in the frontier properly that I can get this kind of treatment?"

Gu Mingzhou looked good for him, and finally smiled: "However, it is the adult's choice, the next official is just a matter of saying. I want to remind the adult, after all, it is Zhang Li's old department. If you don't work harder, I'm afraid it will be difficult for the rest of your life." Gain the favor of the emperor."

When Xiao Yu heard what he said, he was so angry that he couldn't listen anymore, so he left.

That old ghost has been dead for a few years, and he still talks about Zhang Li and Zhang Li, so there are fewer fools to do things for Zhang Li back then?Just stare at him and pester him endlessly!

However, when he got home and calmed down, he couldn't help but recall what Gu Mingzhou said over and over again, hesitated, and picked up the pen and ink to draft the memorial.
