Chapter 104: The City Wall Sees the Driver
As twilight approached, there was a knock on the door of the Gu Mansion, and Uncle Tang respectfully invited the person into the main hall. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Yin Jiheng looked a little hurried, and after seeing Gu Qingxuan, he directly grabbed his wrist and said, "Let's go, Brother Gu Xian, quickly follow the old man to see someone." ”
Gu Qingxuan asked, "Who are you seeing?"
Yin Jiheng replied without looking back: "Your Majesty." ”
"Your Majesty is on the north city wall at this time, and Weifu is inspecting the refugee camp, and I have specially summoned you and me to meet the driver. ”
They didn't dare to delay for a moment, and rushed to the north city gate, and the two of them climbed the city wall angrily, and sure enough, they saw Chen Jingxing wandering around and inspecting it.
After the salute was over, Chen Jingxing called for someone to bring tea to them with beads of sweat on their foreheads, and said with a smile: "It's really uncomfortable when it's hot this day." ”
The two thanked him, and then walked slowly along the walls with him.
Chen Jingxing was wearing a silver-white regular suit, holding a white fan, moving forward, his posture was calm and casual, but he showed natural elegance and luxury.
How could the thousands of Li people under this city wall think that their emperor was so close to them at this time.
Gu Qingxuan could see that Chen Jingxing's concern for refugees and disasters in various places was sincere.
Chen Jingxing stopped at the most concentrated place in the refugee camp, sighed, and turned back to them: "The court and the government are in turmoil, but the people's livelihood is not cured, these days, I am really restless, thinking about the people suffering, but the court is unable to help, it is really worrying......"
The two naturally kowtowed in unison and replied: "The minister is incompetent, but the minister has had." ”
Chen Jingxing smiled, shook off the folding fan, and fanned the wind gently: "No matter how incompetent the two of you are, then I will be really incompetent in the court." Okay, this is not the time to blame anyone, I summoned the two Aiqing here today, just to discuss with the Aiqing...... How should we clean up the mess left by the emperor?"
His straightforward words made Yin Jiheng's face slightly sick, and he was speechless for a while, and then replied: "Your Majesty, don't worry, the old minister will definitely raise funds with Lord Gu to solve the urgent needs of the refugees, and when the drought and flood pass, the tax will come up, and it will naturally improve." ”
Chen Jingxing had an inexplicable smile on his face, got closer to the wall, looked at the refugee camp below, and said calmly: "You see, the following is just a microcosm of the suffering of the common people...... From south to north, they gathered under the city of Chang'an, because they believed that this was the richest place in the world, there was the Son of Heaven, there were ministers who influenced the decrees, and for the people of Limin, Chang'an City was not only the capital of Daqi, but also their last hope, they believed in me, believed in the court of Daqi, they waited for the magnates in Chang'an City to save them, but what if we failed them?
He turned, leaned slightly, and leaned closer to them, and continued, "What a terrible thing that is, isn't it?"
The two bowed their heads: "Your Majesty is wise, God bless you." ”
Chen Jingxing straightened his back, put away the fan, and tapped it on his palm, the crisp sound shook their eardrums, he laughed, and said in a long voice: "God can't bless Daqi, you have to rely on people." Fund-raising can only solve a temporary crisis, and what about after that? After years of war and ruin, the treasury is empty, and the imperial court is in such an embarrassing situation, it shows that it has to work hard to think of other measures. Gu Qing, Yin Qing, now you are the minister I count on the most in the court, let me say this, you either give me people - people who help the world, or give me wealth - a steady stream of wealth to help the world, or ...... I'll find it myself. ”
He paused for a long time, his voice deep, and a few words struck at their heartstrings.
The two kowtowed in unison and said, "Yes, Your Majesty." ”
Chen Jingxing walked back, his eyes still lingering among the beings under the city, and only when he finally asked them to retreat, he turned his eyes to look at Gu Qingxuan, and added: "If I see Gu Qing next time, you still don't say a word, then I will ...... Let you go to be the head of the household. ”
Gu Qingxuan immediately waved his hand and shook his head, no longer as stiff as before, "No, no, no, Weichen doesn't dare......"
Chen Jingxing laughed, "Look at what you're afraid of, Gu Qing, I'm not joking with you, who dares to sit in the position of the head of the household department now? The entire household department is a plate of loose sand, and this official position is a hot potato, no one dares to take it, I think about it, or Gu Qing, you are the most suitable." Gu Qing, if you've had enough of playing in the Imperial History Terrace, you'll have to come back and be your scholar......"
Gu Qingxuan still shook his head, and said again: "No, no, Your Majesty will spare Weichen, Weichen is really good in Yushitai." As for the Tobe Shoshu...... Your Majesty, can you allow Weichen to recommend one?"
"Who do you recommend?"
He said, "Uh...... The current Dali Temple Qing Du gradually declined. ”
After Chen Jingxing thought about it, he joked: "Du Qing, but what kind of grudge do you have with Gu Qing?"
Gu Qingxuan lowered his voice and said with a smile: "There is no hatred, it's just that Master Du is much richer than Weichen......
Chen Jingxing nodded: "Okay, that's it." Du gradually promoted to the head of the household, Dali Temple, from the current Dali Temple Shaoqing, Yin Doctor your son Yin Chengyuan was promoted. ”
This sudden good thing made Yin Jiheng stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly thanked him, thinking that his eldest son Yin Chengyuan had been in Dali Temple for so long, and no matter how many ways he thought about it, he couldn't make him go further, and today Gu Qingxuan said a few words easily......
He was happy in his heart, but what made him feel uncomfortable was that when did the tacit understanding between Gu Qingxuan and Chen Jingxing become like this?
After the two of them retreated, they walked down the city wall together, and the people of the Imperial Palace were still waiting behind the city gate, they did not take the car, they walked back together, and walked into the inner city, where thousands of lights on Chang'an Street were shining.
Yin Jiheng had a knot in his heart, and his face still showed a kind look, and he thanked Gu Qingxuan.
Gu Qingxuan had something else to do, and said that he should win over Du Wanwei, because the household department is really very important, but none of them can directly intervene, and pushing Du Wanwei to this position is just enough to let him stand in front, killing two birds with one stone.
He thought hard and had his own opinions, and Yin Jiheng couldn't see through what he wanted to do for a while.
After that, the two dispersed, Yin Jiheng returned to the house, and Gu Qingxuan went to Jiangyue Tower.
……
In the official office of the Ministry of Industry, when it was just dark, Gu Qingning was still left alone to do things in the department, and the injuries on her body were not healed, and there was not much she could do, but she was willing to hold on like this here, and she couldn't figure out what she thought.
This was the first day she returned to the agency, she didn't return home at this time, Gu Qingfeng couldn't sit still, so she came to the Ministry of Industry to find her.
In the huge Lang Middle Courtyard, she was the only one, sitting alone behind the public case in the public room, holding an old book and flipping through it, holding a pen in her right hand and writing something slowly.
Gu Qingfeng's light skills made him walk silently, even if he stood silently outside the public house for a long time, he would not be discovered, he knew that Gu Qingning had something on his mind, and he himself was also worried, but none of them would say anything.
He looked at the Ministry of Industry and the official office in the twilight, looked at the brocade official uniform on his sister's body, and thought about everything she had now and everything she had lost......
Gu Qingfeng put away his bitter gaze, called out a bright and innocent smile, and jumped into Gu Qingning's public room, calling in a clear voice: "Sister!"
He scurried up to her lightly, and took the book and pen from her hand while she was stunned: "It's time to go home!"
"Why are you here?" Gu Qingning asked in surprise, never thinking that Gu Qingfeng would sneak into the official office.
He blinked, "Eh, my father hasn't come home yet, my brother isn't here, you haven't come home yet, I'm scared at home alone, I'm here to play with you." ”
She laughed and tapped him on the head with the ruler she had in hand, "Okay, I'll just go home." ”
He grinned and helped her up, looking big and grinning, but in fact, every little action was thoughtful.
Looking at such a breeze, her heart was much more stable.
The two were walking on the corridor, and Gu Qingfeng asked her, "Sister, are you going to be like this in the future?"
Gu Qingning said: "This is good, isn't it?"
"Yes, of course. He said, shaking his head, "It's just...... Or do you want someone to be with you......"
"Do you want your sister to marry?" she knew that Qingfeng felt sorry for herself, and her heart was moved.
Gu Qingfeng was noncommittal, and said with a pout: "Sister, you have such two excellent younger brothers, who is under great pressure to be our brother-in-law, I am really worried, what kind of person can marry my sister?"
"What if there has never been such a person? Qingfeng, maybe, really no, maybe I will have nothing else in my life except this official title, and my husband will not have ...... Child ......" she smiled wryly, her voice choked.
Gu Qingfeng smiled sourly and shook his head resolutely: "No, sister, you still have us, me, brother, father, we will always take care of you and protect you." ”
"Qingfeng ......" Hearing him so affirmative, Gu Qingning felt even more uncomfortable in his heart, and was silent for a while.
He seemed to grasp the meaning of her silence, but still firm, and added: "I can, sister, even if the world changes thousands of times, I will always be your brother, and this will not change." So, you'll never have to be afraid of no one around. ”
He did it, and among thousands of people in the world, only her breeze has never failed her.
The two walked out of the official office and saw Gu Qinghuan wandering outside, he had been waiting for a long time.
"Sister ......" was dressed in the same color of Lang Zhong clothes, at this time he was not like a mature man, and stood with his head bowed in front of Gu Qingning.
Gu Qingning glanced at him and walked forward with the breeze: "Go home." ”
