Chapter 361: Yan Invite Layman

After Guo Dan left, Empress Dowager Li went to the back garden, only to see Wanli was enjoying the flowers alone in it, but he was absent-minded, seeing that Empress Dowager Li was coming, he hurriedly stepped forward and saluted, "Erchen has seen the queen mother." ”

Empress Dowager Li smiled: "Let the emperor wait for a long time." ”

"Erchen has only just arrived for a while." Wanli stepped forward, raised his hand slightly, gently supported Empress Dowager Li, and asked, "How did the Queen Mother talk with Guo Dan?" ”

Empress Dowager Li smiled bitterly and said, "That kid is a good lesson for the old body." ”

Wanli was furious when he heard this, and felt incredible, how could Guo Dan, who has always been clever, dare to teach the Queen Mother a lesson, and said in a trembling voice: "He... How dare he teach... This is really unreasonable, please rest assured, the son immediately sent someone to arrest him. ”

Empress Dowager Li shook her head and said: "The emperor doesn't need to be excited, it's not his fault, it's the old body who deliberately forced him to that position, and the old body saw him this time to want to know what he thought, not to listen to his rhetoric." ”

Squatting down, she continued: "But what he said is very reasonable, and the old body can also see that he is indeed thinking about the emperor. ”

Wanli was very relieved when he heard this, and asked, "I wonder what the queen mother thinks about this?" ”

Empress Dowager Li smiled slightly: "Emperor, what should be done in this matter, naturally it is up to the emperor to decide, I will never ask, I just feel very curious, Guo Dan, a businessman, why would he suddenly be interested in the affairs of the vassal king, so I plan to ask him." ”

Wanli said: "The son understands, but the minister can't make up his mind about this matter, I hope the queen mother can give me some guidance." ”

Empress Dowager Li shook her head and said: "I can't help you with any ideas, you have to decide this matter yourself, the old body is just Guo Dan, I want to remind the emperor." ”

Wanli hurriedly said: "Queen Mother, please speak." ”

Empress Dowager Li squinted her eyes and said: "The old man has seen Guo Dan twice, this son is very clever, and he is indeed a talent, the emperor, you are not wrong, for now, he is also trustworthy." ”

Speaking of this, she changed her words: "But this person's way of acting is very peculiar, he is another way to solve the problem, and this method may be traced back to the Qi State in the Spring and Autumn Period, and his method of governing Weihui Mansion is similar to Guan Zhong's use of the Chu State's plan to buy deer."

However, since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty respected Confucianism, this method has always been regarded as a side-by-side way, and the old body does not say that this method is not good, but the old body does not understand this method, and the emperor may not understand it very well.

For example, in the case of the Weihui Mansion, even though he had told us in advance what he would do, no one would have thought that there would be today's situation, but all this was under his control, so at this point, the emperor, you must think carefully, even if the result is good, you must also think clearly, what is his ultimate goal. ”

Wanli thought for a while, then nodded and said, "The queen mother has to teach, and the sons and daughters must remember it." ”

Empress Dowager Li smiled and nodded.

Wanli secretly glanced at his mother again, and said, "Queen Mother, ...... about the vassal king?" ”

Empress Dowager Li said: "Regarding this matter, the old body has just made it very clear, the emperor has to make up your own mind, you have grown up now, and you should do something." ”

This can also be said to be, as a monarch, you have to make a difference, if you want to make a name for yourself, you have to come up with some great achievements, you don't have anything to do at the moment, the underlying meaning, she obviously supports Wanli to make some changes.

In fact, in the Wanli Dynasty, Empress Dowager Li was a very key figure, although the reform was Zhang Juzheng, but the comprehensive verification is true, the Empress Dowager Li is actually a great achievement, without the support of the Empress Dowager Li behind, Zhang Juzheng could not succeed at all, so the policy continues to this day, the Empress Dowager Li is very clear about the situation of the country.

She knows that there are many problems that still need to be solved, but due to the struggle between the DPRK and China, Wanli is not able to exert her strength, and a negative attitude has begun to appear in recent years.

It's just that she abides by the etiquette law, and since she has returned to Wanli, she will never interfere in the government again, but only slightly affect it from the side, and will never reprimand Wanli at every turn like before.

......

After Guo Dan returned to Yaxing, he locked himself in his office.

Although Empress Dowager Li did not show any intention of rectifying him, nor did she refute his suggestion, he also couldn't figure out what the Empress Dowager Li and Wanli were planning, which reminded him once again that this aspect has always been his weakness.

Some things may seem to him to be beneficial but harmless, but in the eyes of the ruler, they may be harmless and not beneficial.

He didn't want to get involved, he still stuck to his plan, concentrated on running his own business, and doing what he did best, and it was because of this that he needed someone to help him solve this problem.

This is also a typical capital thinking, as a boss, it doesn't matter if I don't understand, someone can understand, I can spend money to ask someone who understands to help me.

It's just that nowadays, money is not everything, and many people of insight don't look down on his money.

Since money is not good, it only depends on appearance, but appearance is only effective for women, after all, it is not a big beauty here, and appearance can be killed by both men and women.

Thinking of this, a shadow flashed through his mind.

"Husband, what are you thinking?"

Someone asked.

"Xu ......."

As soon as Guo Dan spoke, he suddenly woke up, looked up, and saw Kou Zhuansha looking at him curiously, and said, "Madam? ”

Kou Zhuansha tilted her head slightly and asked, "Husband, what are you thinking, thinking so intrigued?" ”

Guo Dan hesitated for a moment and said, "I'm thinking about Aunt Xu." ”

"Big sister?"

Kou Shui Sami's eyes widened.

Guo Dan hurriedly said: "Don't be jealous, it's not what you think." ”

Kou Liansha's expression froze, and she said, "I'm not jealous, and you don't follow your own virtues." ”

Take care of yourself? Guo Dan frowned, and instead of answering, he asked, "Madam, was Aunt Xu who took the initiative to come to you?" ”

Kou Zhuisa was stunned for a moment, then nodded.

Guo Dan said again: "What did she say to you?" ”

Kou Zhuansha said: "It's just reminiscing, I didn't say anything, oh, and I also said that you owe her money." After saying that, a hint of cunning flashed in her eyes.

She had been coming to Madame for so long, and when she came at this time, she mentioned that I owed her money, and oh, I should have thought of that a long time ago. Guo Dan groaned for a while, and suddenly said to Kou Zhuansha: "Madam, I plan to ask someone to come to the tooth shop to help." ”

"Who?"

As soon as the words came out, Kou Zhuansha suddenly exclaimed, "Could it be ......?" ”

Guo smiled and nodded.

On the second day, Guo Dan came to Yunxia Temple again.

He had just come to the foot of the mountain, looked up, and saw a tall Taoist aunt standing on the peak, he was immediately excited, and hurriedly beckoned, before coming, he was really afraid that he would have to wait for a long time.

When she came to the peak, Aunt Xu nodded slightly.

Guo Dan immediately beckoned and said, "Big sister, I haven't seen you for many days, how are you doing lately?" ”

Aunt Xu's expression was stunned, she hadn't seen her for many days, it seemed that the relationship between the two had been sublimated, and she called me so kindly, and said, "You still call me a layman." ”

Guo Dan shook his head and said: "No, there is a way, women sing with their husbands, I never thought that the eldest sister was actually my wife's mentor, this is really fate!" ”

Aunt Xu said: "Don't worry, I will let Liansha call me a layman when the time comes." ”

Guo Dan hurriedly said: "No... There's no need, I'll call you a layman. Good layman. "He was honest and saluted.

Aunt Xu nodded and asked again, "I don't know why you came here today?" ”

"Of course, it's here to pay it back."

Guo Dan waved his hand in an airy manner, and a guard immediately stepped forward, opened a wooden box in front of Aunt Xu, and saw that there were five hundred taels inside. I heard him say again: "Originally, I should have asked someone to send money over a long time ago, but it's a pity that this mundane thing is entangled and I forgot about it for a while, but I'm not the one who doesn't believe in my words, especially when it comes to money." ”

"It doesn't matter."

Aunt Xu nodded, then instructed a Daoist aunt to accept the five hundred taels, and said to Guo Dan: "I also know that you are very busy, so I won't keep you." ”

"Not busy, not busy, not busy now."

Guo smiled lightly, thinking, he really pulled up his pants and didn't recognize anyone. Rubbing his hands, he said, "Actually, I came here today and have another matter. ”

Aunt Xu asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"It's ......!" Guo Dan looked left and right, and said, "After walking for so long, I am a little thirsty, and the layman should not be stingy with a cup of tea." ”

Aunt Xu hesitated for a while before taking the pavilion behind Guo Dan's Taoist Temple, and personally brewed a cup of tea for Guo Dan, and asked, "I don't know what else you have to do?" ”

"Wait a minute."

Guo Dan said and took out a bronze mirror from his arms, put it on the table, and said, "That's for this." ”

Aunt Xu glanced at the bronze mirror and looked at him suspiciously.

"The layman is really a mirror to wake up the dreamer!"

Guo Dan said excitedly: "Don't hide it from the layman, I have always felt that the appearance of things is just a face, a hundred years later, dust to dust, dust to earth, only a skeleton remains, no one will be an exception, so I never judge people by their appearance, and I don't even have a bronze mirror in my room."

It wasn't until the layman gave me this bronze mirror that I took a closer look at myself and found that I was still so handsome. ”

As he spoke, he stood up, turned around gorgeously, and danced in a stinky manner.

Today he is indeed dressed up, wearing that slim black bamboo robe, wearing a black scarf, coupled with his fair face, it is exaggerated to say, just like the handsome guy who walked out of the painting.

Aunt Xu glanced at him slightly, with endless depression between her eyebrows, and asked helplessly, "What are you talking about?" ”

Guo Dan hurriedly sat down and said, "I came today to invite the layman down the mountain in the name of appearance." In ancient times, Liu Guan and Zhang looked at the donkey, and now I Guo Tongsheng invited the layman, and it will definitely become a good story in the future. ”

Aunt Xu listened to it and silently took back the bronze mirror.

Guo Dan was pleasantly surprised: "Did the layman agree?" ”

Aunt Xu said depressedly: "How can you see it? ”

Guo Dan said: "This bronze mirror is a token between us, and now the layman has taken back the bronze mirror, this is not a promise or anything, but it is really excellent." ”

Aunt Xu silently put the bronze mirror on the table again.

Guo Dan was stunned and said, "What do you mean by a layman?" ”

Aunt Xu couldn't help but laugh and said, "I think you misunderstood." ”

"How is this possible?"

Guo Dan was surprised: "Isn't this mirror just for people to see?" ”

"That's right." Aunt Xu nodded, and changed her words: "It's a pity that you understand the opposite. ”

"Just the opposite?"

Guo Dan doubted: "The layman is saying that I am ugly?" It can't be. He couldn't help but touch his face.

Aunt Xu sighed lightly, only feeling that Guo Dan was so cheeky, and she didn't need to give him face, and said truthfully: "I gave you a bronze mirror, I just hope you can see clearly how many catties and taels ......you have." ”

"One hundred and twenty pounds, standard build."

PS: Don't get the title wrong, that's dangerous.

In addition, about the socket is out of power, it should not be a tripping problem, I went to check it, and at noon today, the socket was magically powered again, but an hour later, it was magically out of power, and my 500-word manuscript was wiped out, and I think it was playing with me.
