=========================

After receiving his brother's letter, Gu Jiu found out that during the period when he was busy with generals' performance appraisal, General Yang Zhan was actually busy embezzling military expenses.As a result, the soldiers on the front line of Yanmenguan did not have enough food and clothing, and it almost caused a mutiny in the army.

If it weren't for my elder brother's prestige in the army, it would be hard to say whether Yanmen Pass still belonged to Jin.

Gu Chen: Ajiu, the armaments in Yecheng's arsenal have been in disrepair for a long time and are unusable, lacking [-] crossbows.The more leather armor and arrows the better.

The military situation was urgent, Gu Jiu immediately asked someone to open Taicang, allocated a batch of money, food and military equipment, sent Shen Mi to lead [-] imperial troops to escort them, and rushed to Yecheng.

The elder brother said in the letter that Xianbei split into two tribes. The Tufa and other tribes still respect Xianbei Dashanyu, and the Tuoba and other tribes jointly elected Yuwen Wutugui as king, and followed him to surrender to Jin.Therefore, in the next step, my brother will sit in Yecheng and attack the Xiongnu with all his strength.Another [-] well-equipped crossbowmen were sent to assist Yuwen Wutugui in unifying Xianbei.

As it involves confidential deployment, this paragraph is all in encrypted text, thanks to Gu Jiu having learned how to decipher it from his brother, otherwise he would not be able to understand it at all.

After all the money, grain, and military equipment were loaded into vehicles and shipped out of Luoyang City, Gu Jiu entered the palace without haste and reported to Xiao Yun.

This is one of the ways in which powerful ministers die in fancy ways.The problem is, the military expenditure allocated by Xiao Yun to Gu Chen is enough to last until the beginning of spring, but it was embezzled by General Yang Zhan during the transportation.

Gu Jiu can't ask the emperor for instructions first, which means that he has to confront his uncle Yang Zhan and wrangle for a while.When this case is clearly resolved, the day lily on my brother's side will be cold.

Gu Jiu is not very good at observing words and expressions, but Xiao Yun's words are quite gentle, so he shouldn't be unhappy?

How did he know that Xiao Yun is now equivalent to an active volcano, and the magma inside is surging, almost erupting.

The cause was the triennial official performance appraisal, which was written by Xiao Heng. According to the style of taking care of Jiu, in line with the principle of fairness and justice, the military officer's performance appraisal book was sorted out. There were four generals who failed the appraisal and needed to have their official seals confiscated. Xiao Yun tried his best to install his cronies in the military.

As for Shen Mi, who failed in martial arts, dozens of military generals went to the school together to guarantee him: the infantry captain Shen Mi passed the martial arts, but happened to have a stomachache on the day of the performance appraisal.Your Majesty must trust us. If you still have doubts, you can ask Shen infantry to demonstrate their martial arts on the spot.

Xiao Yun's nose was almost crooked.

Even though the plan to bring down the powerful ministers was not perfect, Gu Jiu seemed to have a sense of vigilance. If he continued to delay, the cronies who had finally been planted might be uprooted by Gu Jiu.

Xiao Yun planned to do it in advance.

Gu Jiu seriously reported Yang Zhan's embezzlement of military expenses, resulting in a shortage of military rations and ordnance.In order to muddle through, Yang Zhan asked people to purchase old rice, and mixed gravel into the rice to make up the amount.The ordnance was also replaced with tatters that had been stored in the warehouse for decades. They were so rusted that they would break with a single blow, and they could not be used normally at all.

Xiao Yun felt that Gu Jiu was scaremongering, and he had also read Gu Chen's military newspaper.

It was a good news. If there is even a shortage of military rations, how could it be a good news?

It is said that Gu Chen led the army outside, asking for money, food, and armor, which made him, the emperor, very uneasy.Gu Chen won another battle and seemed to be the number one in the military, but he took the lead in making troubles and demanded that General Yang Zhan be severely punished.

The small report sent by the supervising army said that the governors of Jizhou and Bingzhou, the county prefects and other officials at all levels bowed their heads and ears to Han Gong Guchen and obeyed his orders.

Xiao Yun decided to be sloppy and pretend to be confused: "Ajiu, why do you think my little uncle is not pleasing to your eyes? What kind of handsome man is that actor named Mu Li, who makes you fight and hate each other? I also want to open it." Open your eyes and let him come and play a song."

Gu Jiu was stunned for a moment—there was a powerful enemy outside, and there were worms that mothed the country inside.If you leave it alone, there will be chaos.Such a serious topic, but His Majesty thought he was jealous, so he targeted Yang Zhan?

Is he the kind of person who doesn't know the big picture?Perhaps, His Majesty knew everything in his heart, and deliberately pretended to be confused, trying to get away with it.

For a moment, he was speechless.

After being silent for a long time, Gu Jiu said solemnly: "Your Majesty, Mu Li is no longer a male actor, but a member of the minister's family. Let him play a piece of music, which is not an exception." There is no shortage of musicians in the palace, and Mu Li likes playing the piano once. It is another matter to be asked to play the piano.Gu Jiu hoped that he would have the freedom to play as long as he wanted.

Xiao Yun narrowed his eyes slightly: "You took off his humble status for him? It's really a deep friendship."

Gu Jiu: "..."

He did discuss it with Mu Li, and re-registered with the government, changing his surname to Gu and Lin.They are counted as the children of the Gu family.

Judging from the blood relationship, Mu Li should be Gu Jiu's cousin.However, this heavy identity is easy to remind people of the prince of the previous dynasty. Gu Jiu didn't want to cause trouble, so he simply asked Mu Li's opinion and changed it to his long-lost clan brother.You need to prepare some more things, confirm that there will be no loopholes in your identity information, and then apply for household registration.

Xiao Yun was taken aback by the man slowly approaching with light clouds covering the sun, holding a guqin.He knew that Yang Zhan felt sorry for this male actor, that he was the overlord who forced himself to bow, and the influence was bad, which made people feel ashamed.However, Yang Zhan didn't tell him that this male euthanasia looks like Gu Jiu.

No wonder Gu Jiu was so angry that day.

Xiao Yun was suddenly a little annoyed, he was only supporting his little uncle at that time, Gu Jiu must have been very disappointed and wronged.Later, Gu Jiu never called his brother again, was it because of this incident?

"Qing is Mu Li?"

"Yes."

Mu Li collected himself and started to play the piano.Back then, the picture that the Taoist nun left for him turned out to be the Tai Chi Hall of the Imperial Palace, and all the buildings could be matched.Those dozens of cinnabar lines, could it be... How many secret passages are hidden under the Tai Chi Hall?

Xiao Yun has listened to many famous string songs, but no one has such a unique and beautiful voice as Mu Li.However, such a weak piano sound is really not worthy of his singing voice.

It seems that Gu Jiu may be "beautiful in the eye of the beholder" towards this male actor, and because he is moved, he likes to listen to him playing the piano.

Xiao Yun was inexplicably apprehensive: "Ajiu, listen to me, Mu Li's piano skills are very ordinary, not a famous one."

Mu Li lowered his eyebrows, didn't even lift his eyelids, and the sound of the piano was still very smooth.

Gu Jiu looked determined: "I feel that many people know the fancy piano skills. Mu Li's piano music, if it weren't for the heart of the benevolent and the wise, it would never be so clean and beautiful. His string songs, I have heard of the most beautiful."

Xiao Yun was heartbroken for a while.

Coming out of the palace, it was already the beginning of the lights.

Gu Jiu has something on his mind, he is not good at guessing other people's thoughts, but he is not stupid.Xiao Yun's fear of him seemed to be getting worse.

In the twilight, the streets are illuminated by colored lights, the traffic is busy, and the voices of people are boiling.Gu Jiu went straight into the restaurant on the street.The embarrassing thing is: he and Mu Li ordered a table of small dishes and drank two jugs of wine before realizing a serious problem: they didn't bring any money.

Mu Li took off the jade pendant, intending to keep it here.

Gu Jiu disagreed, the Gu family's family rules, everything can be given to others, only the jade that is close to the body is not allowed.

He took off the golden bell with the cicada pattern on the official hat, and threw it to the waiter: "Two more pots of Lihuabai."

The waiter caught the thing and was completely dumbfounded.

The officials of the Jin State have many strange things.There was an official living in Jiuqing, who smelled the aroma of wine from other people's houses, so he went into the wine cellar of other people's houses, drank wildly, and passed out drunk at the scene of the theft.So exchanging the golden cicada on the official hat for wine is not too outrageous.

If someone else did this, I'm afraid they won't get any positive comments.However, as the most beautiful man, Gu Jiu became popular again.

The exchange of golden cicadas for wine has actually become Qinghe Gong's unrestrained and uninhibited performance art, which is anecdotal among celebrities.

Gu Jiu: Please don't practice personality cult.

Before the wine was finished, there were already dandies gathered in the restaurant to watch the beauty.

As a result, many people saw a scene they would never forget in their lifetime - Gu Jiu, a high-ranking official who was drunk, was picked up by King Qin Xiao Heng. Gu Jiu suddenly opened his eyes, glanced sharply, saw clearly that it was Xiao Heng, and I fell asleep lazily.
