Gu Zheng had empathy on his face, and recounted the tragedy that his old lady once told him, word by word: "Who would have thought that this brother had just gone out, and he encountered bandits on the road, and he lost his life inexplicably. ”

And the younger brother's family, after hearing the news, took advantage of the second day when the brother's bones were still cold, and collected the family's property into their hands. ”

The remaining orphans and widows of the elder brother were driven out of the ancestral house by him as soon as the funeral was over. ”

"After just a few years of hard work, several of my brother's children have inexplicably become sick or have accidents...... They all died. ”

"The widow and sister-in-law can only remarry when they turn around. It's a human tragedy. ”

Hearing this, Zhao Kuangyin was holding the document in his hand, and he was unconsciously wrinkled by himself. He was especially unwilling to ask more: "What about that little brother's family?"

Gu Zheng followed this question but sighed lightly, and returned: "This is the worst, because this little brother does not have the ability of the eldest brother, he received a huge property, but after three or five years of hard work, it has been completely ruined, and it is not as good as an ordinary family like us." ”

"It's not that the kid said, when I first entered the palace, the poverty in the family was the same as the younger brother of the Erbaozi family in the mother's mouth. ”

Seeing that Gu Zheng was speechless in heartache, Zhao Kuangyin was a little stunned when he thought about it, he muttered a few words to himself, but said as if he had figured out something: "Yes, the worst thing is that the person who does not measure himself, even if he takes over the family business, in the end, it is not as good as his previous life." ”

Zhao Kuangyin, who said this, seemed to have made up his mind, threw the unsightly paperwork that he had already held in his hand towards the table, turned his head to Gu Zheng and smiled lightly: "Boy, I didn't expect you to be like a stuffy gourd, and when you speak, it's quite funny." ”

"I just don't know if the things you write and draw on weekdays will be as interesting as your stories?"

Seeing the emperor Lao'er on the side holding back for so many days, he remembered to ask him what he was doing, Gu Zheng was still a little helpless about his sense of existence being so weak.

Simply today, his preliminary work has reached the point of completion, and Gu Zheng, who is no longer covering up, generously spread out a paper that is two feet large, holding the corner of one side with one hand, and bent down and handed it over to the low table in front of Zhao Kuangyin.

"Your Majesty, please see, this is the strategic topography map of the Jinghu area that I have supplemented on the basis of information for many days. ”

"Dedicated to the saints. To show your Majesty's gratitude for promoting me to the rank of a first-class yellow gate. ”

And Zhao Kuangyin, who heard this, casually opened the map that had not been framed, and the expression on his face changed from a little funny and contemptuous at the beginning to a real solemn shock.

This work in Gu Zheng's hand is that the ink has not dried yet, and the multi-layer painting is actually three points more detailed than the map of Jinghu Lake in Zhao Kuangyin's hand now.

Some of these unknown or unmarked trails are also reflected in the map.

Looking at its contents, this is actually an independent enlarged drawing of the Jinghu area.

Its structure is rigorous and well-organized, how can it not surprise a person like Zhao Kuangyin who knows the goods.

He took this map and looked at it carefully several times, without concealing the exaggerated expression on his face, then raised his head and asked Gu Zheng: "You actually did it alone?

Can Gu Zheng say that it will be added in later generations?

It must not be!

What did his radar system do?

Who believes.

At this time, Gu Zheng could only give the most reasonable answer, he pointed to the bookcase behind him that was full of more and more cuts and said: "Checking doubts and filling in the gaps is mostly due to the above." ”

"Your Majesty, you must know that the southern city where I am located is a gathering place for the poor craftsmen, and my ability to draw pictures must be first-class and superb. ”

"If you talk about mapping, making a palace is three points better than this topographic map, and the kid is even better. ”

Looking at Gu Zheng's pride on his face, Zhao Kuangyin was stunned, okay, he dared to recruit a little yellow door casually, this is still a talent.

Taking care of Zheng said so, his entry into the palace is simply a big loss for the engineering department?

Zhao Kuangyin remembered his idea of renovating the palace, and after glancing at Gu Zheng meaningfully, he was once again attracted by the map in his hand, waved his hand at Gu Zheng, no longer cared about him, and began to study the subtleties on his own.

This immersion is like this, that is, after two moments, Gu Zheng on the side is confident.

The current situation in the New Song Kingdom, according to his analysis, in the next battle, Jinghu must be taken first.

Only in this way can the connection between the Later Tang and Later Shu be quickly severed, the border between the two countries can be severed, and their union will be divided into two.

In the following days, they were able to break through one by one, and finally won the victory of the unification of the south.

As long as Zhao Kuangyin is a soldier who can use soldiers, he will naturally know the importance of this map.

And with this ability, his Gu Zheng's status in the palace can be regarded as an additional guarantee.

He is a person who can leave a name in the emperor's heart, and when others want to move him, they must also weigh the consequences.

Gu Zheng, who had already pulled out the books on the second map in his heart from the shelves in turn, was busy with his head down.

Zhang Dekai, who never came in to disturb Zhao Kuangyin when he entered the middle hall to read the papers, knocked on the door outside for the first time.

Zhao Kuangyin, who was interrupted by this sudden knock on the door, was not in a very good mood, and asked directly, "What's the matter?"

And Zhang Dekai outside's answer was also simple: "The Empress Dowager of Yanshou Palace sent someone to invite His Majesty the Emperor to come over, saying that there is something important to discuss." ”

Hearing such a reply, Zhao Kuangyin frowned, and even Gu Zheng, who was far away, saw the impatience on the emperor's face at this time.

However, he still held back his anger, folded the drawing in his hand carefully, and instructed Gu Zheng next to the bookshelf: "Boy, put this map away carefully and put it on the cabinet in front of my couch." ”

"No one is allowed to move except me. ”

"Whoa!"

Seeing Gu Zheng surrender his life, Zhao Kuangyin reluctantly got off the table, turned around and left the small military study, carrying Zhang Dekai, who was beside him to explain the situation to him, and went straight to the Yanshou Palace not far away.

Gu Zheng, who had the heart to look twice, saw that Wang Jien was also among them when the group of people left.

Although he is at the end of the line, it also shows that this kid can finally climb to this point.

In the direction of the emperor's inseparable servant, another key step has been taken, that is, to carry with him, at any time, anywhere, and now Wang Jien has touched the edge.

As if feeling Gu Zheng's gaze, Wang Jien, who was at the bottom of the line, subconsciously turned his head when the team was about to leave the courtyard.

saw that under the reflection of the candlelight inside the door, Gu Zheng turned his back to the door and made a thumbs-up gesture towards him.

Cattle!

This is the most admiration that the little brother has done to him since he entered the palace.

Wang Jien, who received this praise, turned his head again, but his heart was full.

A spirit that was almost smoothed out by intrigue once again surged into Wang Jien's heart.

He said that he wanted to be Gu Zheng's backer in this palace, but now it is far from enough.

They're like ants that are a little thicker, but ants are still ants after all, and they want to get into the eyes of people, and your body size is ...... At the very least, it becomes the size of a dog.

At the very least, this dog won't be ignored like an ant when you kick it.

At this moment, everyone's heart is full of thoughts.

And the emperor who entered the Yanshou Palace lit the lamp in the palace of the Queen Mother to the point of sleepless all night.

In the Hanlin Courtyard, Gu Zheng, who was on duty when the lights were turned off, was not well informed without Wang Jien's ventilation message.

But after he returned to the dormitory, he got the answer he wanted.

"Gu Zheng, don't you know?"

"What?"

"It's not good for the Queen Mother to think about it!"

"You mean?"

Seeing Gu Zheng's inquiry, the three roommates opposite nodded in unison, they covered the windows and doors in their own rooms, and began to share the news they had just gossiped about.

"Xiao Yizi was packing up the flowers and branches outside the Funing Palace just now, and he happened to see the figure of the internal servant of the Yanshou Palace who came to inform him talking with Zhang Daguan. ”

"It was said that the Queen Mother's problem suddenly became serious, even the people in the hospital were not optimistic, and at the wish of the Queen Mother, several children in the family were notified to come to the palace to meet, and then asked His Majesty the Emperor to come over, saying that it was specially instructed. ”

"You said that this old lady, why can't you be lighter, call people in this palace in the middle of the night, and don't notify His Majesty the Emperor in advance, this matter is troublesome. ”

The rest of the words are not easy to say because the friendship of several people has not yet arrived.

Gu Zheng, who was lying on the bed, knew that this matter had nothing to do with him, and he could be regarded as sleeping soundly.

But if he knew what was happening in the inner hall of the Yanshou Palace at this time, it was estimated that he would have ten guts, and he would have to think about it a little more.

The current sage Zhao Kuangyin, under the guidance of Zhang Dekai, has passed through the layers of crowds that surrounded Yingzhao in Yanshou Palace, and walked to the bedroom of his own wife, Empress Dowager Du.

The layers of people outside this door are all kinds of relatives in the family, and the old lady sent someone to recruit them after feeling that she was not very well.

This mother did not inform her son in advance, and now even when she was gasping in the hall, she was reluctant to hold the hands of her other two younger sons, and her eyes were full of reluctance.
