Chapter 111: The Imperial Decree Comes North

Gu Qing squatted under the locust tree at the entrance of the village, holding his cheeks and watching the newly moved nest of ants under the tree busily trying to transport tiny food into the nest, but he couldn't lift the mood of harming them at all.

Li Bai left, Song Gensheng went to the county government as a small official, the villagers were so busy for the porcelain kiln that they flew up, and the only one Zhang Huaiyu had with him every day was "Can you eat this?" "How do you eat this?" "Is this delicious?"

Originally, people who were lonely didn't find anything bad about being lonely, and some people preferred to be lonely and were tired of interacting with people. However, if people who are accustomed to loneliness have been in a lively environment for a long time, once they return to loneliness, it will be more uncomfortable, and the atmosphere that suddenly quiets down after the hustle and bustle is not only psychologically difficult to adapt, but also rings in the ears.

Everyone is a passerby in each other's lives, they are just destined for the same journey, and life needs to go through the whole journey alone.

At the next intersection, there will be a certain person who is waiting for him.

Yesterday, I received a letter from Xian Yu Zhongtong from Yizhou, in which he told Gu Qing that the Nanzhao Rebellion had been put down, and he was the first person in the credit book.

Gu Qing already had a hunch that his fate with the villagers of Shiqiao Village was coming to an end.

Knowing that you are leaving, of course you have to put some finishing touches on before leaving.

First of all, Hao Donglai and Shi Daxing were invited to Shiqiao Village, Gu Qing took them into the porcelain kiln very generously this time, pointed to a deep hole inside, and told the two shopkeepers that this is the secret of why porcelain can become tribute porcelain, because porcelain is burned with coal, and the burning temperature will be much higher than ordinary firewood and charcoal, so the inner tube of the porcelain fired is white and dense.

The two shopkeepers were stunned for a long time, and then quickly exchanged glances.

The secret was already known, and Gu Qing asked them if they wanted to consider setting up their own portal.

Hao Donglai and Shi Daxing were speechless and hehe.

Now the situation of the porcelain kiln is very good, it has just been set as tribute porcelain, and the porcelain kiln has also been named and inscribed by Xian Yu Zhongtong in Jiannan Province, not to mention that Gu Qing was also summoned by Yang Guifei to see, I heard that the impression of the concubine Niangniang on him was surprisingly good, and the two shopkeepers also heard some news from the old friends of Shuzhou, the rebellion of the Nanzhao Kingdom was quelled, it is said that Gao Xianzhi and Xian Yu Zhongtong listed Gu Qing as the first in the merit book.

Unconsciously, Gu Qing, an ordinary peasant boy, had become a fat and thick thigh, although he was not powerful, but it was not something that these two businessmen could afford to offend.

At this time, asking them if they want to set up their own doors is like asking them kindly if they want to choose death......

The two treasurers do not choose death.

So Hao Donglai and Shi Daxing swore to strictly abide by the secret recipe of the porcelain kiln, and never confided in the secret recipe of the porcelain kiln in this life, and then regardless of whether their ancestors agreed or not, the two forcibly invited their respective ancestors and ancestors to swear together, the oath is very poisonous, all kinds of good death, and the way of death is new, quite creative, and the Tang Dynasty version of "Death is Coming".

Anyway, Gu Qing felt that if he was their ancestor, no matter whether they leaked the secret recipe or not, he wanted them to experience those ways of death for themselves.

In fact, the two shopkeepers didn't know, it was in vain for them to forcibly invite their ancestors out to swear, Gu Qing didn't believe in verbal oaths at all, and sometimes the contract in black and white was difficult to believe, he only believed in benefits.

Whether human nature is good or bad, interests can keep the two shopkeepers shut.

With the current ability of the two shopkeepers, they can't turn the sky over for the time being, and a government decree of Qingcheng County almost made them anxious, daring to put aside Gu Qing's self-reliance, first ask the concubine Niangniang if she agrees, and the batch of unique plum bottles printed with rainbow sycophants were given away in vain?

The two shopkeepers were first surprised why Gu Qing told them the biggest secret of the porcelain kiln today, after all, the two of them have become fine characters, and after thinking about it, they suddenly realized.

"Is Shaolang-kun leaving Shiqiao Village?" Hao Donglai's face was full of envy.

Shi Daxing's eyes lit up, and his face looked more and more hideous, like a robber seeing a super fat sheep.

Gu Qing glanced at them with a smile and said, "Maybe I'll leave." ”

Shi Daxing swallowed his saliva, and said excitedly and carefully: "I heard that Wang Shi quelled the rebellion of Nanzhao Kingdom, and Shaolangjun contributed to it, and also made great contributions?" ”

"Not bad." Gu Qing paused, deciding that he still wanted to shock them, so he added: "Xian Yu Jieshuai sent me a letter, the battle of Pingnan Zhao, my name is ranked first in the merit book. ”

The two shopkeepers really shook their bodies, and then they shook again, and Hao Donglai's fat body shook and rolled in waves, wave after wave.

"Hexi Shaolangjun, it seems that Shaolangjun is about to become an official!" The two shopkeepers were overjoyed.

"Shaolangjun is really not a thing in the pool, and he is about to soar into the sky!"

Shi Daxingyi patted his chest in a cloudy manner: "After the Chang'an edict, Shi is willing to send Shaolangjun to Chang'an. ”

Hao Donglai was not to be outdone: "I'll pack!" I pack! Let's use the most expensive carriage, the strongest horse, the most experienced coachman, prepare the most delicious dry food and wine on the road, and if Shaolang-kun can stand it, the carriage will be stuffed with the most beautiful kabuki for you......"

After a pause, the two of them said in unison very tacitly: "I am willing to personally send Shaolangjun to Chang'an City!" ”

Gu Qing smiled.

The posture of hugging the thighs is quite eager, and the words are beautiful, but the last sentence is probably their ultimate goal.

I'm tired of brushing the map of Qingcheng County, and I'm going to change the map to brush the boss of Chang'an?

The nature of businessmen is to seek profit, and it is obvious that the interests of Chang'an are much greater than those of Qingcheng County, which is understandable, and they also laugh at their carriages and horses and escorts, and Kabuki can be dispensed with, taking up too much space.

…………

After the porcelain kiln was designated as tribute porcelain, the porcelain kiln has been shrouded in a layer of political color, and no such long-sighted people dare to come to the porcelain kiln again.

Gu Qing still has one more thing to solve.

After sending off the two shopkeepers, Gu Qing found Song Gensheng and his father, and the two sat on the threshold of the Song family, and chatted about Song Gensheng's marriage together in a deep tone of fatherly love.

Song Gen is a simple man who doesn't have much opinion, and Song Gensheng's current wooden and honest appearance is probably caused by the family environment.

Hearing Gu Qing take the initiative to mention Song Gensheng's marriage, Song Gen patted his thigh and told Gu Qing directly that his child had long fallen in love with Xiu'er, the daughter of Widow Yang in the village, and Song Gen wanted to propose marriage, but was stopped by Song Gensheng.

Gu Qing's cheeks twitched.

Undeclared war......

This nerd has a thorough view of life, to the level of a philosopher. One sentence reveals the essence of human marriage.

In the past, Gu Qing was idle, and nerds liked to play the shy answer routine of wanting to talk and stop welcoming and refusing, and Gu Qing also followed him, but now Gu Qing has little time to stay in Shiqiao Village, and he can't allow nerds to be hypocritical anymore.

asked Song Gen what he meant, and Song Gen said that he was happy to hear about this family affair, and the two old fathers quickly exchanged fatherly eyes.

Gu Qing got up happily and went home to get two silver cakes, about twenty taels, which was a huge amount of money, but for Song Gensheng, the money was well spent.

Carrying two pieces of silver cakes, Gu Qing carried some gifts such as game and shortbread, and went to Uncle Yang's door.

When he entered the door, he went straight to the point, helped Song Gensheng propose, and then called Xiu'er, and asked Xiu'er in a very straight way if she was willing to marry Song Gensheng, and nodded if she was willing, considering that her daughter's family was thin-skinned, she could also run away shyly on the spot. If you don't want to, shake your head wildly, or jump into a well on the spot to express your disapproval.

Xiu'er didn't jump into the well, Xiu'er shyly turned around and ran away.

Uncle Yang covered her mouth and giggled like an old hen that had just laid eggs, Gu Qing put two pieces of silver cakes on the table, which was considered a dowry, and the family matter was decided. But Gu Qing emphasized another point, Xiu'er is only fifteen years old this year, although there are many girls at this age who are married, but in order to have more children and grandchildren in the Song family, it is best to marry first, and round the house after a year or two.

Uncle Yang was naturally happy to agree, as for etiquette such as three media and six etiquettes, Gu Qing asked Song Gensheng and his own father to buy it, but Gu Qing was too lazy to care.

Everything was decided, Gu Qing patted his ass and left, and the proposal was successfully completed, less than half an hour before and after.

The way a straight man proposes is so simple and crude, but it works.

Song Gensheng, who was far away as the chief bookkeeper in Qingcheng County, couldn't have imagined that he had an inexplicable mother-in-law, or the mother-in-law who had been secretly in love for many years.

Facts have once again proved that the hypocrisy is excessive, and you can't even eat hot. If you like it, you can take it immediately, which is the right way to open love.

…………

On the fourth day of the fifth month, an errand officer from the Yizhou Jiedu Embassy came to Shiqiao Village and handed Gu Qing an edict written by the Son of Heaven in front of the villagers.

Gu Qingping of Shiqiao Village made meritorious contributions to the rebellion of the Southern Zhaoguo, and was enshrined in the Chang'an Zuowei Prince's Mansion to join the army, and set off for his post on the same day.

The edict was accompanied by a cyan military attache suit, with a placket silk soft armor and a standard instrument sword, as well as an official certificate and a wooden plaque for the status of a military general.

The informal will does not need to put incense on the case, Gu Qing Gongli listened to the edict, and after receiving the wooden card and the military attachΓ©'s clothing, he sent dozens of hard work fees to the messenger, and after the messenger left, the villagers were furious and fried.

The villagers congratulated Gu Qing, Shiqiao Village had the first military attache in history to be sealed by today's son, what a great joy.

Gu Qing was also happy to go with the flow, so he waved his hand and let Feng Aweng handle it, and held a three-day flowing water banquet, which can be regarded as thanking the villagers for their care for many years, and asking the villagers to work harder for the porcelain kiln in the future.

Tonight, Shiqiao Village is full of people, and it is still brightly lit until late at night.

Dodging the villagers who took turns to toast, Gu Qing flashed into his yard, and saw the lonely figure of Zhang Huaiyu hugging his knees in a daze under the moonlight, Gu Qing smiled and stepped forward lightly.

"I'm going to Chang'an tomorrow to take up my post, ...... Come with me? ”

Zhang Huaiyu raised his head, looked at his face that glowed with the moonlight, and suddenly smiled: "I'm not going, I'll stay in Shiqiao Village." ”
