Chapter 118: After the Dead

The silverfish bag is a kind of ornament given by the Son of Heaven, which is hung on the belt and has little practical use. You can't subdue demons and eliminate demons, and you can't help people through the calamity, but it's a great honor, and the silverfish bag is hung on your waist, and others will know that you have a holy family, and Jane is in the emperor's heart.

However, there are also rules for the Son of Heaven to reward silverfish bags, usually courtiers above the fifth grade are eligible to wear silverfish bags, Gu Qing is just an eighth-grade record to join the army, and he was actually rewarded with silverfish bags, which is already an exception.

It is conceivable that after this news spreads, Gu Qing, a young man who has just come to Chang'an, will receive some kind of attention from powerful and courtiers from all sides.

An old eunuch beside Li Longji stepped forward, with a smile on his face, holding a tray in his hand, and a silverfish bag lying on the tray, walked up to Gu Qing, the old eunuch smiled more and more kindly, and said: "Gu joins the army, how about the silverfish bag given by the Son of Heaven, how about the old man tie it to you?" ”

Gu Qing's eyes froze, and he quickly glanced at the old eunuch, just now I heard Li Longji call "General Gao", this is probably the famous Gao Lishi, it is rare to have a good eunuch among the eunuchs throughout the ages.

Seeing that Gao Lishi stepped forward to tie a whitebait bag for him, Gu Qing hurriedly thanked: "Thank you Gao Aweng." ”

Gao Lishi smiled: "It's all Your Majesty's grace." ”

Tie up the silver fish bag, Gu Qing thanked him again, Li Longji turned his head to look at Yang Guifei, and said with a smile: "Although this son is young, he is humble, and he does not have the arrogance of a young man, which is quite rare, look at the children of the Xungui family in Chang'an City, they are all crazy, compared to Gu Qing is much better than them." ”

Yang Guifei said with a smile: "If San Lang likes him, you might as well summon him often, and it is good to mention some cultivation, Gu Qing is a person from Zuo Wei's family's mansion, and Zuo Wei is in charge of the palace guards, and it is very convenient to enter the palace." ”

Li Longji bowed his head and said: "If the lady has homesickness in the future, she can also summon Gu Qing to talk and relieve her homesickness a little, this little fellow of yours has not disgraced your hometown." ”

Yang Guifei glanced at Gu Qing, her eyes flashed with disgust, and she covered her mouth and giggled: "Your Majesty, don't look at his honest appearance at the moment, his mouth will please people." Boasting about people is simply unstoppable, comparing the concubine with the ancient Xi Shi, Wang Zhaojun, and Diao Chan, saying that the concubine is one of the four beauties, and also calling the concubine a 'shy flower'......"

Li Longji laughed: "I heard about it, it's really appropriate, isn't my lady just a beauty, 'sinking fish and geese, closing the moon and embarrassing flowers', so talented!" ”

Gu Qing said embarrassedly: "Chen Menglang, Shuzhou was shocked when he saw Niangniang for the first time, and he couldn't help but be secretly jealous in his heart, which man can be blessed to become Niangniang's husband, but it is really a blessing from the cultivation of three lives, so the minister lost his temper and blurted out what was in his heart......"

This inconspicuous sycophant made Li Longji happy again, men's psychology is like this, it is nothing that he is jealous of other men, but he is jealous of other men because of his wife's beauty, that is the biggest compliment, and his vanity is greatly satisfied in an instant.

Gu Qing also laughed, and there were 10,000 divine beasts rushing in his heart.

He found that the essence of entering the palace today is to pat the sycophants, and the sycophants are cool, the more benefits he gets. Today, just a few casual shots, I got a house in Chang'an and a silverfish bag, in this sense, a rich reserve of sycophant knowledge is equal to wealth.

If this equation holds, within half a year, Datang's treasury is likely to be surnamed Gu.

The monarchs and ministers enjoyed themselves, and Gu Qing respectfully said goodbye to the palace.

Yang Guifei also told Li Longji to retreat to the harem, and in the empty hall, Li Longji's smile gradually cooled.

"General Gao."

"The old slave is here."

Li Longji frowned, and said lightly: "This Gu Qing, what do you think?" ”

Gao Lishi thought for a while and said: "Calm, intelligent, and talented, but ruthless in his heart, ruthlessness is inevitably disloyal." ”

Li Longji nodded slowly: "The princes of the court, how many people are sentient, and how many are loyal to the monarch?" But it's all fame and fortune, and those who are used by me and controlled by me are talents. ”

Gao Lishi was stunned, hanging his head and not daring to speak.

Li Longji closed his eyes as if he was asleep, Gao Lishi stood quietly on the side, and after a long time, Li Longji said lightly: "Go and check this Gu Qing, the lady likes this son very much, but I and the lady can't tolerate people with unclear backgrounds." ”

Colliers bowed: "Obey." ”

…………

Walking out of Xingqing Palace, Gu Qing breathed a long sigh of relief.

I am more nervous than entering the company for an interview in my previous life, after all, if I said the wrong thing during the interview, the company will reject me at most, and if I say the wrong thing when I meet you, the person can leave, but the head may have to stay.

Walking on the way back to the inn, Gu Qing's mind kept thinking of Li Longji's face.

It can be seen that Li Longji's attitude towards his courtiers is very friendly and friendly, and he deliberately creates a hearty and enlightened personal image, which makes people can't help but get close to him, and after getting along for a long time, they may unconsciously work hard for him, which is where the personal charm of the emperor lies.

However, Gu Qing is a person who is particularly sensitive to people's hearts, whether a person is really smiling or smiling in front of him, whether he is really happy or fake happy, Gu Qing has a very keen and accurate intuition.

During the brief intersection with Li Longji in the palace just now, Gu Qing could only give him an evaluation: his acting skills are very good, and he is distracted.

However, no matter how heartfelt the acting skills are, they are still acted out after all.

A few sycophants laughed, and they gave the house and the silver fish bag, as if they were really valued by the emperor, but how could the emperor be so easy to fool, especially an emperor who once created a prosperous era of Kaiyuan, even though the emperor is getting older and more mediocre now, he has not lost his ability to play with power.

Gu Qing knows very well that Li Longji's reward for himself today is mostly a show of grace, and it is also to please Yang Guifei and help her gain face, as for how much Li Longji attaches importance to Gu Qing and him, it is a bit funny, the Tang Dynasty has many talents, a young man made a sand table, and said a few words when quelling the rebellion, what is this?

In the future, if you want to make a name for yourself in Chang'an, you must first maintain absolute sobriety, and in the land of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, you will be accidentally gnawed by those old foxes to the point that there are no bones left.

Gu Qing walked on the streets of Chang'an City and secretly alerted himself.

Back at the inn, Hao Donglai and Shi Daxing greeted them, looking at Gu Qing expectantly. They knew last night that Gu Qing was going to face you, and the two shopkeepers were more excited than Gu Qing, and they didn't sleep well all night.

After all, Gu Qing's status is directly related to their interests, and everyone is in a prosperous relationship.

Facing the expectant eyes of the two, Gu Qing smiled, tore off the silverfish bag on his waist and threw it at the two of them, and said, "Don't ask anything, Your Majesty rewarded me just now." ”

Hao Donglai held it with both hands, his eyes were straight, and the fat on his face trembled with excitement: "This, this is a silverfish bag, only courtiers above the fifth grade are qualified to wear it!" ”

Shi Daxing's face showed ecstasy: "I never thought that Your Majesty would treat Shao Langjun so well, with such a holy family by his side, Shao Langjun's road in Chang'an in the future can be regarded as smooth!" ”

Gu Qing smiled and added leisurely: "Also, in a few days, we won't need to stay in the guest house, and Your Majesty also gave me an official mansion." ”

The two shopkeepers were stunned for a moment, and then became more and more overjoyed, Hao Donglai said again and again: "Good sign! Good sign! Let's come to Chang'an with Shaolangjun Sure enough, Your Majesty attaches so much importance to Shaolangjun, I am afraid that it will not be long before he will be promoted, and he may be able to pay homage to the prime minister in the future. ”

Shi Daxing also smiled: "Yes, yes, Shaolangjun's official road is smooth, we can also get light, and the merchants of Chang'an City will have a place for us in the future." ”

Gu Qing looked at them curiously and said, "Are you reconciled?" Didn't you beat your brains so hard before yesterday that they were about to burst out? ”

Hao Donglai's face turned pale, and he said: "Shaolangjun can't defile us, Shi Daxing and I have always been good brothers in adversity, we are like brothers and sisters, we are in the same boat in this life, how can we fight?" ”

Shi Daxing also said solemnly: "Shaolangjun said that he laughed, Hao Fatzi and I are like relatives, we help each other all our lives, we are brothers, friends and brothers, this emotion moves the world, there can be no disputes." ”

Gu Qing sighed, these two goods, their acting skills are more than one level worse than Li Longji.

If you have the opportunity, you want to take them to observe how the actor-level characters act.

The three of them discussed the purchase of shops in the inn, as for the sale, they started with certainty, and the porcelain produced in Shiqiao Village was selected to be shipped to Chang'an with a slightly lower grade than tribute porcelain, and then sought development.

While they were deliberating, a polite voice suddenly came from outside the house.

"Gu Qing Gu Langjun can be in this house? Honglu Temple Qing is visiting! ”

The three people in the room were stunned, and Gu Qing was stunned and said, "Honglu Temple...... Isn't it about diplomacy? How does he know me? Do you treat me like a foreigner? ”

When he opened the door full of questions, there was an old man in his fifties standing outside the door, with a dignified appearance, wearing regular clothes, and looking at Gu Qing with a smile on his beard.

Gu Qing was stunned for a moment, and then arched his hand and said, "I am Gu Qing, I don't know ...... this elder."

The elder smiled: "It's really a talent, the old man Honglu Temple Qing Zhang Jiuzhang, Gu Qing, it's hard enough to find you." ”

Seeing that Gu Qing was still stunned, Zhang Jiuzhang smiled and said, "The old man is Zhang Jiuling's younger brother and Zhang Huaiyu's uncle. ”

Gu Qing was stunned, hurriedly re-saluted, and respectfully invited Zhang Jiuzhang into the house.

Honglu Siqing is considered a ministerial-level high-ranking official, Hao Donglai and Shi Daxing have never seen such a big official in their lives, so they immediately hurriedly saluted Zhang Jiuzhang, and then went to get dim sum and wine in person.

Zhang Jiuzhang entered the door and did not sit down, but stood up straight, and suddenly bowed to Gu Qingchang.

Gu Qing was startled, he didn't know what the battle was, and subconsciously returned the salute, Zhang Jiuzhang held his arm with both hands, and said in a deep voice: "You stand up and let me salute." This ceremony is a great gift of thanking Ling Zun Lingtang for protecting my Zhang family's life-saving grace back then. ”

So Gu Qing had no choice but to stand awkwardly, and Rong Zhang Jiuzhang bowed respectfully.

Zhang Jiuzhang looked at Gu Qing after saluting, his eyes were red, and he sighed with a smile: "I have always known that Brother Gu's sister-in-law Gu has a son who is still alive, and I have heard them reveal a trace before, and it should be in Jiannan Dao." After the accident, the Zhang family has been looking for you for many years, and every year they have sent people to Jiannan Road, and every large and small city has been searched, until a few days ago I received a letter from Zhang Huaiyu, I didn't know that you came to Chang'an, Gu Qing, but we can teach us to find it so hard. ”
