"What does this matter have to do with Lord Zhao?" Gu Xizhou took a deep breath, at this juncture, he had already asked his people to be careful, but what he never expected was that at this juncture, there were still people who could do such a stupid thing.

No, it won't be Zhao Yuan's doing, he has already made it clear, and now there are people in the court who are targeting him and asking everyone to clamp their tails and behave, so no one will do this.

Someone was still calculating, Gu Xizhou stood up, "Prime Minister, Prime Minister, Prime Minister, what do you mean?" Could it be that you are really on the side of the Five Princes? ”

"My subordinates don't think so." The cronies said: "Prime Minister, it seems that there is another purpose, before, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, who was friendly with the five princes, he also ordered someone to secretly make a trip, if it is really a family, how can he do this?" ”

"Now I can't think about it so much, you go back to Beijing and inquire about the news, I must save this person." Gu Xizhou Road.

The cronies nodded and stepped back.

Gu Xizhou originally wanted to stay here and keep an eye on Gu Jianglin's actions all the time, but now it seems that it is unlikely, if the matter over there in the capital is really serious, he will have to go back.

Fidgeting, when he woke up at night, news came to him, the situation was really serious, and the emperor seemed to be very angry about this matter.

Now there is nothing more important in the court than the matter of flooding, fighting snakes and hitting seven inches, these bureaus done by the prime minister can be said to have poked the emperor's sore spots everywhere, things are like this, how can the emperor not crack down hard?

He became more and more restless, knowing that he couldn't stay in Yanzhou for a few days, so he called He Zhenglin.

He Zhenglin is still very worried, although their family inherited the position of county magistrate, but his father, in his old age, had already withdrawn from the treacherous court.

Although he looks at the title as very high, in fact, it is only an empty position.

If he can take advantage of the situation and return to the court again and have higher power, I am afraid that his ancestors will feel at ease.

"What do the six princes command?" He asked with a smile.

"In the capital, I still have some things that have not been resolved, and I have to go back." Gu Xizhou groaned slightly.

He Zhenglin immediately reacted, "Does the Sixth Prince want me to keep an eye on the Fifth Prince?" ”

"He's a smart man." Gu Xizhou nodded with satisfaction, "When the time comes, whatever conditions you want to open, just open it." ”

He Zhenglin swallowed his saliva, a prince's promise can be compared to ten thousand gold, he nodded, and hurriedly saluted, "Do things for the five princes, don't dare to ask for compensation." ”

"Alright." Gu Xizhou interrupted his pretended words, stood up and said, "If the matter is done well, I will definitely praise your benefits in front of the emperor." ”

"Thank you, Your Highness." He Zhenglin said.

Early the next morning, Gu Xizhou returned to the capital, and originally wanted to meet Zhao Yuan to discuss how to solve the matter, but he never expected that a small pawn at the door would dare to stop him.

He frowned, "Don't you know my identity?" ”

When the jailer heard this, he nodded and said, "Naturally, I know that you are the Sixth Highness and the prince. ”

"If you know, why dare you stop me?" Gu Xizhou asked coldly.

"This is what the emperor meant, you can't let anyone see him, including the six princes, and the emperor said, if you come, let me say a word to you, if there is a loss of virtue, then you are not worthy of being the emperor, the most important thing is the dawn of the people of the world, not your own honor and disgrace, the villain does not understand these words, and you have to taste the six princes." The jailer said neither humbly nor arrogantly. Heyuan Book Bar

After hearing these words, Gu Xizhou did not feel offended, but felt a chill burst out from the bottom of his heart.

The emperor asked a little jailer to pass the word for him, which means that he is already cold, and if he can say this, the emperor should be sure that this thing is what he asked Zhao Yuan to do.

The prime minister is really scheming, taking advantage of the contradiction between him and the five princes, so that the emperor is convinced of this.

The old fox really lives up to its name.

Gu Xizhou sneered, "You can't go in, you can pass a word for this prince, it should always be okay, the emperor didn't say that you can't pass the word, right?" ”

The jailer was stunned for a moment and nodded slightly, "Naturally." ”

"Okay, I said you listen, tell Zhao Yuan, don't bury any grievances in your heart, just say it, the emperor will definitely redress his grievances." Gu Xizhou Road.

He just wanted to tell Zhao Yuan that he would not forget him.

The jailer nodded, indicating that he had heard it clearly, and promised to convey it to Zhao Yuan, and Gu Xizhou left.

In Yanzhou, Gu Jianglin has already gathered a lot of fiber farmers and pearl divers, let them clean up the sediment of the river, this work can be completed in more than a month, and when the time comes, the weather is also hot, and after the tide recedes, the dam can be built.

was personally supervising the work, but suddenly saw a sneaky person not far away, dressed not like a worker, although it was plain clothes, but the material of the clothes was not ordinary, not ordinary people can afford it.

He shouted, "Who's there?" ”

He Zhenglin walked out, squinted his eyes and smiled, and said, "In the lower Yanzhou County." ”

"I know you." Gu Jianglin didn't have a good impression of him, this person once again committed evil with the merits of his ancestors, although he didn't make big mistakes, but he made a lot of small mistakes, and sometimes he even dared to use public funds.

This is also what he found out, but there is no evidence, but thinking that this person does not participate in the imperial examination, but only inherits the position of the county magistrate, so he eats Haisai here, so he knows that he is a person with no ambitions, Gu Jianglin naturally does not like such a person, so he feels that the rumors are a little more credible.

"That's really an honor for the lower officials." He Zhenglin said with a smile.

"What are you doing here? I remember, Yanzhou's affairs are naturally responsible for the thorns, so you don't need to work hard, right? Gu Jianglin said with a smile.

"Hey, there is a disaster in Yanzhou, and as the county magistrate of Yanzhou, I naturally have an unshirkable responsibility, so I came here to see if there is anyone who can help." He Zhenglin racked his brains to come up with an excuse that was still above board.

Gu Jianglin smiled, "You have hundreds of households, and your ancestors have accumulated a lot of money and owned several farms, if you really have the heart, when a large number of disaster victims pour here, you should open a warehouse to release grain, but it seems that at that time, your house was closed and you couldn't pretend to be sick." ”

"I'm really sick." He Zhenglin immediately defended himself, "I have been weak since I was a child, not to mention, there was a lot of water, and the weather was damp, and I couldn't stand it, so I was sick, and now I really want to help." ”

Gu Jianglin could feel that none of his words were sincere, but his appearance made people feel a little strange, He Zhenglin put eating, drinking and having fun first, and he didn't hear anything outside the window, how could he take the initiative to ask for help?

Thinking of this, he felt that He Zhenglin was not simple, so he coldly refused: "No need." ”

He Zhenglin was swept away, and he was not so annoyed, but laughed and said: "That's okay, I'll leave first, if there is anything you need help, the fifth prince, even if you send someone to find me in the mansion, I will definitely do my best." ”

Gu Jianglin just smiled faintly, "Okay." ”

He Zhenglin smiled awkwardly, turned around and retreated, as soon as he left Gu Jianglin's sight, his humble and subservient appearance suddenly disappeared, and he spat hatefully and said: "My father is still a hero of the dynasty, you treat me like this, you really don't take me seriously!" ”
