In the crowd of people, some people were sad, some people laughed, Gu Qingning was the one who laughed, and he looked at her from an unobtrusive position, and there was a rare appreciation and worship in his eyes-

The eldest princess of Jinyi, the youngest sister of the emperor, a legend of the Great Qi Dynasty, the myth she yearns for in her heart, stands at the highest place in front of her at this moment, or she is always there, and her words and smiles can deter this man full of fame and fortune.

At the age of sixteen, she assisted the emperor as the princess of the town, who reigned for more than 30 years, and she ruled for nearly 20 years.

At the beginning of Lu Yuanzhi's political career, she was in charge of the dynasty as a national assistant, and it can be said that for nearly 20 years, Lu Yuanzhi could only live in her shadow, and finally became an important minister of the court from a small official.

If it weren't for the fact that she was unwilling to get involved in the fierce party struggle for the heir more than ten years ago, and asked to resign from the dynasty and leave Chang'an to go to the fiefdom of Anyi, I am afraid that Lu Yuanzhi would have been difficult to have today's power.

After all, if she is here, she will not tolerate the minister, because she is the greatest minister.

They stopped in front of the main gate of the altar, and everyone lined up according to the ceremony, and Dong Yehong, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, raised his voice and announced, "The dragon enters the altar, salutes, greets, and worships the gods!"

After everyone finished saluting, Yin Shaochu turned her head to meet Gu Qingning's eyes, and she only felt a roar in her heart.

It's finally time to do this.

Dong Yehong was a little worried, hesitated slightly, and said to Chen Jingxing: "Your Majesty, the Tianyi Altar has just been completed, and it is the first miracle in the world. ”

"Quasi-play. ”

Gu Qingning calmed his breathing, stepped forward with Yin Shaochu, stood next to Dong Yehong, and bowed his head.

"Gu Qingning, the construction deacon of the Construction Department of the Ministry of Industry, see Your Majesty. ”

According to the etiquette, she was methodical, and in the face of the scenes she had expected countless times, she neither deliberately showed her specialness, nor deliberately concealed her specialness.

His gaze finally stopped on her lowered face, looked closely, and smiled: "Are you a woman?"

She took a step forward, "Back to Your Majesty, Weichen is indeed a daughter." ”

There was a murmur of heads and ears among the hundreds of officials behind him, Gu Qinghuan kept staring at the front and was extremely nervous, Lu Yuanzhi noticed that this was Gu Qingning, and suddenly felt bad, and felt resentful in his heart.

Chen Jingxing took a step closer to her, and the smile on his face deepened, "This is the first time that a woman has called herself a Weichen in front of me, Gu Qingning...... Gu Qingning ......"

"It is a little woman's luck to be a minister of Your Majesty. ”

She kowtowed again, sensitively speculating whether there was anger in his tone, but listening to him read his name, his tone tossed and turned, and suddenly there was a subtlety in her heart.

As if faced with a huge puzzle, she felt that she could never ignore the sound in her ears, but she could not figure out when it sounded and when it fell.

Before she could panic, a hand reached over and covered her hand, pulling her naturally together.

This was the most nervous moment of the day, and only in that moment, she seemed to be unable to breathe, and her heart trembled violently.

As soon as she raised her eyes, she met her gaze, which was a pair of beautiful eyes that had been washed away by the wind and waves, but still gentle and affectionate. Her hand bones were distinct, and her palm was warm, wrapping Gu Qingning's trembling left hand, and gently patting it down a few times to appease.

"It turned out to be a woman, no wonder it looks so kind, what a wonderful person. ”

Gu Qingning looked at her in the distance, and could clearly smell the incense on her clothes, which also had a soothing effect, she calmed down and lowered her eyes: "Eldest Princess Xie appreciates, and Weichen is ashamed." ”

Gu Qingning politely avoided her body back, but she didn't let go.

Chen Jingxing glanced at her, then turned to Yin Shaochu and smiled: "Yin Shilang, why have I never heard that your Ministry of Industry has hidden such a strange woman?"

Yin Shaochu was faintly uneasy, calmly stepped forward, and kowtowed: "Back to Your Majesty, Deacon Gu is very talented and very sensitive to fortifications, and he is actually a construction genius, originally sponsored by the ministry to temporarily serve as a counselor of the fortifications, which coincided with the beginning of the reconstruction of the Tianyi Altar. To this day, the altar has been successfully completed, and Deacon Gu has made great contributions. The construction deacon is the seventh grade, can not enter the pilgrimage to see, so His Majesty has never seen or heard, today is also because of the Ministry of Works' Langzhong due to illness leave to let Deacon Gu face the saint, to His Majesty to show the Tianyi altar, after all, she is the person who knows this fortification best. Your Majesty, please be clear. ”

Yin Jiheng in the back had a very bad face, and he was a little resentful that Yin Shaochu was afraid of disaster if he spoke for Gu Qingning with such a clear position.

"I see. Chen Jingxing only said this, ignoring emotions.

Although the other officials felt that there were many absurd objections in their hearts, it was difficult to raise them, because the eldest princess of Jinyi was here, and it was difficult to talk about women.

But Lu Yuanzhi was willing to give up, even if he knew that it was wrong, he still said loudly: "Your Majesty, women are officials...... Something seems wrong, right?"

"Does Lord Lu have any opinion on women entering politics?"

Sure enough, he was glanced at by the eldest princess.

He had no choice but to hold back for the time being, and said stubbornly: "It's not that the minister is biased, please think twice about Your Majesty." ”

Chen Jingxing did not speak.

The eldest princess looked at Gu Qingning's face and said to him with a smile: "Your Majesty, isn't it a great thing that a genius like Deacon Gu can be used by the imperial court and make great contributions? Seeing this, my aunt was very happy. ”

Indeed, when the imperial court is employing people, it should be eclectic to accept talents, officials, and learn from the Ministry of Industry. Chen Jingxing bowed his head and came over to hug her, and she let go of Gu Qingning's hand.

Gu Qingning's heart can be regarded as landing, and in the crowd, Gu Qinghuan wiped the sweat on his forehead.

Then according to the general regulations, Gu Qingning carefully explained the mysteries of the Tianyi Altar to the emperor, and behaved calmly and brilliantly.

She could feel the prickly gaze of the officials, accustomed to the submissiveness of women, who were rejecting her as an "usurper", stubbornly opposed to a woman doing what they could do...... But she was not afraid, she was not afraid, and from the moment she embarked on this path, she knew what she was bound to endure......

It's just that there is a gaze that will make her panic in the bottom of her heart, that gaze is not sharp, but very gentle, as if it can perceive all her subtle emotions, understand her, understand her, see through her, and release the same kind of signal to her......

……

Later, Yin Shaochu mentioned to Chen Jingxing that Liang Zhengqing was going to resign, and suggested that Gu Qingning be promoted to Langzhong of the Ministry of Works, and Chen Jingxing was allowed to play.

It's finally over, her home court, and it's finally over.

With the closure of the door of the main hall of the Tianyi Altar, watching the royal car go away and the hundred officials dispersed, she stood on the high steps of the mound in a daze, her ears quieted, and her eyes became empty, she was like the master's house who saw off the guests at her own door, standing there.

"Sister......

Gu Qinghuan naturally stayed with her until the end and stepped forward to call her.

She was a little unsteady on her feet, shook for a moment, was supported by Gu Qinghuan, the sister and brother looked at each other, she held Gu Qinghuan's arm tightly, and said distractedly: "Qinghuan, Qinghuan, is it true? Is this true?"

Gu Qinghuan was happier than her: "Of course it's true! Sister, you have finally come out! In the future, you will be Lord Langzhong, and you will become a waiter and a scholar...... You are the first female official in the history of Daqi who can go to the court to ask about politics!"

……

When the two of them returned home, they couldn't wait to tell Gu Qingxuan about today's situation, and Gu Qingxuan had been waiting for them for a long time.

As soon as they entered the mansion, they saw Gu Qingxuan coming out of the main hall, holding a flat wooden box with brocade silk tied on it, and he said to them: "You are finally back, go, go out with your father." ”

The two wondered, "Where to go?"

Gu Qingxuan walked straight to the door of the mansion: "Go to the Princess Zhenguo Mansion, people have helped our Gu family so much, can you not send some thank-you gifts?"
