206 You're going to be a father
On the first day of the new official's appointment, Gu Teng looked down at his little wife meekly putting on an official robe for him, with a calm appearance with low eyebrows and eyes, and some inexplicable peace in his heart. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
It seems that changing his identity is not completely without benefits, at least he doesn't have to spend most of a month in the barracks, after all, those trainings are meaningless to him.
The advantage of the forbidden army is the rotation system, he can go home every day, even if he is on duty at night, he can step into the house in the morning with the first ray of sunshine...... However, the anxiety in his heart was not delayed for half a minute, because he knew that the apparent tranquility could not delay the decline of the general's mansion, and the glory of the family could only be continued by stepping on the blood of countless enemies.
Approximately...... He's not a pure courtier for a long time!
However, everything could not go according to his ideas, and from the day his father's fate was changed, he knew that he could no longer predict every step of the future based on his 'past life'. Just like when his father sent him to the Xishan camp before leaving, he never thought that he would leave the barracks because of an extremely extreme assassination incident.
Since he couldn't resist the arrangement of fate, Gu Teng didn't panic, his rebirth was unbelievable enough, and after suppressing the uneasiness of derailment in his heart, he honestly became the little leader of his forbidden army - he valued him very much now, and did not let him start as an ordinary forbidden army guard, but led a small leader of a team.
Now that Luo Zi and Xiao Guo are under him, the two of them don't show anything unusual about his slightly higher status than them - Gu Teng was originally much more powerful than them, and this time he was at the forefront when he was escorting, and the two of them actually didn't make any effort.
Even though the big guys knew that there were too many flaws in this assassination, everyone was very interested in turning a blind eye to it, except for the queen's injury in order to save the driver's 'accident', the emperor's other arrangements seemed to be known in advance, and no one would say it stupidly.
All in all, the Nine Princes are completely finished! After being imprisoned, the two rows of sergeants surrounding the palace made him desperate, no matter how unwilling he was, he could only turn into ashes, the emperor had eradicated his henchmen little by little, and now even the last bit of wings on his body had been pulled out, that is, he was immortal, he was just a waste man - even so, the emperor did not take him lightly, he was a very cautious emperor, and would never give him any chance of resurrection!
The officials of the Manchu Dynasty are not all good, and all those who had some passes with the Nine Princes before were trembling, for fear that a person who accidentally fell to the ground, even the colleagues who had turned on the theater mode around him, did not dare to have the slightest arrogance to choose Mingzhe to protect himself, and the officials of the emperor's faction were naturally much more relaxed in their hearts, but there were also arrogant people who couldn't figure it out - for example, the Wu family who got the news from their daughter earlier and knew that their daughter had 'made a contribution'!
Lord Wu has been sullen since he was promoted, and no matter how good the hat of the third grade looks, it is not as good as the position of the waiter! Although he is still **** to the court, he does not have any real power in his hands, so that many things he wants to do have added a lot of trouble! The boiling head was poured on a basin of cold water, and he slowly came back to his senses, knowing that he must have committed the emperor's taboo - he shouldn't have listened to his daughter in the first place and did those behind-the-scenes schemes!
Not to mention whether the emperor still trusts him or not, the mere fact that he knows too much about the 'private means' before boarding the plane today is enough to make people's hearts skip a beat! Thinking about it from his own position, he probably won't let the person holding his handle be hegemonic...... If it weren't for the fact that her daughter was still in the palace, if it weren't for the Wu family and a few powerful in-laws, maybe the son would ......
Fortunately, he is sincere and has not changed at all, and the emperor has observed for a long time and confirmed that his supernumerary father-in-law is still very honest, and slowly has some side thoughts.
The fall of imperial power is the last thing he wants to see, but the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty are not decorations, Jiangshan Sheji has never been a person's word, even if he is the founding emperor, he can't handle everything, otherwise why bother recruiting wise men?
And the only thing he wants to seize most is military power!
Raising soldiers is the most expensive, but the annual tax money of the state treasury cannot afford the consumption of all the sergeants, and the silver alone is a huge expenditure, not to mention how much silver is spent on armaments! Even the annual wear and tear of iron is not a small amount! Even if the treasury is sufficient, what if disaster strikes? Not to mention, it was the great drought in the northwest a year ago, and the silver was spent like flowing water, and I almost couldn't even get out the cost of buying the army that year!
Of course, in the end, the matter was resolved satisfactorily, but this person's heart made the emperor cry.
Why are the border troops of the Luo Wangfu loyal to the Zhao family, and is it not because the Zhao family is generous? Luo Wangfu never detains soldiers, they eat well and dress well, and they are naturally grateful in their hearts. And all those silvers were from the emperor!
That's why the emperor gritted his teeth extraordinarily, he couldn't bear it!
How can you be willing to take my money, but be faithful to others? But the Zhao family is not at all wrong, they pay military salaries according to the rules, and they are good at raising border soldiers, can they still be punished because of this?
If he really did that, he didn't expect to leave a good reputation! Don't say that it is an emperor through the ages, and the faint monarchs are all light!
In the previous dynasty, there were no such examples, the beheaded generals who were recognized as treason have been known for the ages, and the confused emperor was scolded as a dog - the reason was that the emperor wanted to take back military power but found that he couldn't, so he put a big hat on the general as a collaborator!
In fact, this is the handiwork of politicians, everyone is so foolish, but the emperor's actions are really not clever, and the general's reputation is too good, and in the end it arouses the anger of the people - there is no one more powerful than this, and it is no wonder that he will end up dying unexpectedly!
Therefore, it is not difficult to be a pure loyal minister, but to be a loyal minister who lives a long life is simply a dream!
If you want to be a good official, you can, but before you can be a good official, you have to learn to 'discredit' yourself.
This is the first lesson that Luo Ziqian taught Xia Yan the way to be an official after his son was raised.
As for why a noble concubine from a loyal martyr's background has such a strange theory...... Then you have to ask the childless queen who has stood in the deep palace for decades.
I'm afraid that Xia Chu couldn't imagine that the nonsense that he once said to Luo Ziqian in his idle and boring days would really be put into action by her one day, and the effect was remarkable, right?
Otherwise, how could she let her son's backyard become chaotic like that without control?
Is it really for nothing that the queen mother is a concubine!
Of course, at this time, Gu Teng didn't need anyone to teach him, and he already understood these truths.
In his previous life, he was taught by the Wen family to be too upright, and he failed in his career. No matter how upright he is, he can't stand the dirty water that someone has a heart to pour dirty water on him -- since this dirty water must be splashed, why not come by himself?
Originally, he thought that if he married that wife according to the weirdness of his previous life, he wouldn't want to learn from his parents' loving white head, he really didn't have much affection for that person, and he really couldn't accept her character of flying separately when disaster came. And now that he has embarked on this fork in the road, he has a different kind of love for Xia Chu, so it is better to be a strict wife - commonly known as 'afraid of wife'.
Although Xia Chu didn't treat him strictly at all.
The emperor was really satisfied with the new little commander beside him, behaved properly, and had no second thoughts, and was very loyal to his master, but there was only one bad thing, that is, he was too afraid of the inside, and he always had to ask for leave after three days of hard work - either to accompany his wife back to her parents' home, or her wife was not feeling well, or to celebrate her birthday, it was really enough!
Fortunately, it's nothing, and there is no obstacle if you don't delay serious things, and it's not easy for him to take care of other people's housework as the emperor of a country, don't look at him so casually, but look at his appearance, he is still enjoying it!
Gradually, there were some unpleasant rumors in Beijing, saying that the princess of the General's Mansion was a white tiger star, very tight, not to mention that she couldn't conceive a child for a few years, and she firmly tied the prince to herself, and the house was so clean that there was not even a room!
Old Madam Gu was a little affected, mainly because she never hugged her great-grandson, she was a little unhappy, because she treated her a lot lightly, and her relationship with the old lady of the Xia family was not so close.
Wen knew the inside story, Gu Teng had reported it to her a long time ago, but he was worried that his grandmother would not be able to hide it, and it would not be good if it leaked out, so he didn't tell her. She felt sorry for her daughter-in-law who had been wronged, and treated her better and better, intentionally or unintentionally blocking the old lady's several attempts to send the maid to her son's house.
In the blink of an eye, it's another two years.
Sinong Temple is now more and more valued by the emperor, the high-yield grain brings not only the abundance of the treasury and the overflow of the granary, but also the new upland rice seeds even solve the drought problem that may still occur in the future, which makes the emperor very happy, and the young courtier who is dedicated to studying the land but does not know much about etiquette, and has made mistakes in the court several times is also much more tolerant.
Her brother has become a celebrity in front of the emperor, and Xiao Wu walks with the wind, but he was suppressed by Wu after a few days, because her good second brother actually asked to split up!
What a capital bewilderment*!
There is always such an imperfect part of every family, the little Wu family's mother's family was originally humble, that is, the second young master of the Xia family is also looking at the face of the Wu family, after the wind and water in the past few years, gradually the family is not so one-hearted, and the mind of the side door and the left way was born, so that the second master of Wu, an upright young man, was very unhappy, and he actually asked directly to Dali Temple!
There is a way that Qing officials can decide family affairs, not to mention that Dali Siqing is not a Qingtian master, where can he judge this kind of family matter? With a bitter face, he sent the excerpt to the emperor, but the emperor approved it and read it, what does this mean?
Thinking about his intentions, Dali Siqing finally divided the second master of the Wu family, fled back to the yamen with the rotten cabbage leaves flying in the sky, and began to wonder whether to move - he originally thought that this Dali Siqing was quite clean, and he didn't have any big ambitions, and it didn't matter if he did it for a few more years, where did he know that something was going on!
Not to mention how Dali Siqing wants to change his official hat to wear, then Wu Erye is also like iron with an unfilial hat, ignoring the white eyes of his family and entering Dali Temple as soon as the door of the house is closed, and he is about to contribute a simple cement recipe to Xia Bangqiu, who was stunned, silently put away the recipe and sent it to his father.
…… With this kind of second* scientist who doesn't know his brain, she thinks they are really not all the way.
The second master of the Wu family, who doesn't even bother to deal with his own father, how can he care about a girl who has been married for many years and is equivalent to a passerby!
Under An's mocking gaze, Xiao Wu silently retracted his head back into the quilt, biting the little handkerchief and bursting into tears!
Xia Xue gave birth to another son smoothly, but unfortunately the sister-in-law who had never been able to conceive was under too much pressure, which led to a surge in various house fighting skills, and gradually began to be uncontrollable. Liu Jinyan, who had already entered the court as an official, failed to persuade the second brother who had a feverish brain, and Mrs. Liu tearfully divided the bastard boy who took care of the big boy by herself, thinking that she could live the life of a rich man, but her brother-in-law Gu Teng was jealous of his too leisurely life and dragged him into the army.
And at the beginning of summer, finally on a sunny and cloudless dog day, after being punished for standing in the sun for two hours because of the refusal of the two maids that Mrs. Gu forcibly stuffed over, he fainted for the first time!
With her physical fitness...... I don't bother with a day of sunbathing!
Wen nervously sent someone directly to the palace to find the imperial doctor and pass the word by the way, the old lady Gu, who was originally full of toughness, was also uneasy, and went around in her own room, how to see how the two maids she picked were not pleasing to the eye - she really didn't hate Xia Chu, she just wanted to hold a great-grandson, especially after finding that her body was getting worse and worse!
Gu Teng, who got the news, almost broke into the south study, the emperor's reputation for his 'beloved wife' had already been like thunder, but he didn't care about him, after listening to him explain the situation, he generously gave him a three-day vacation!
…… As soon as I got home, I heard my grandmother's kind laughter that I hadn't seen for a long time!
When I entered the house, I first greeted my grandmother and mother, and then I couldn't wait to look at the little woman sitting on the bed with the quilt in her arms. Her eyebrows and eyes finally opened, and the twenty-year-old woman was no longer the immature appearance she had a few years ago, with two shallow smiles on her goose egg face, which was very cute.
"It's not that ...... Fainted? Gu Teng leaned over stupidly and looked at the three women in the room.
"What a stupid child," Wen laughed, and a trace of envy flashed in his eyes, but when he thought of his husband, he was actually single-minded about himself, but that person was not as good at coaxing people as his son: "You want to be a father!" ”
"Huh?"
"Silly son, your daughter-in-law has it!" (To be continued.) )
