As soon as the emperor spoke, those noisy civil and military ministers instantly fell silent, Gu Chen glanced at them lightly, and presented a report: "Your Majesty, this is the drawing of the recruitment order that the minister got from the military department yesterday, and the one in the minister's hand is the same person, but it is not from the minister's hand, and the date of recruitment is exactly the day when the minister leaves the city for three days, please read it carefully." ”

As Gu Chen's words fell, the civil and military officials in the hall suddenly boiled again.

The recruitment order is fake, that is, someone took advantage of his absence in the capital and deliberately added people to the palace in his name, so it is very reminiscent that someone who broke into the emperor at night and could escape with his whole body that night.

"Commander Gu, aren't you shirking your responsibilities when you say this?" A slightly old voice suddenly spoke.

Gu Chen looked over, this was the first person he heard when he came up just now and said that he was going to take away his errand, and this was still an old acquaintance who had dealt with him.

Gu Chen hooked his lips and smiled, and said in a faint voice: "Lord Jiang, some time ago, you were forbidden by His Majesty to go to the court because of your internal uncultivation, why did you just lift the ban today, and you couldn't help but want to fight for some benefits for the five princes?" ”

wanted to take away his errand, did he think that the five princes could do it?

Adou, who can't support the wall, they really dare.

"Commander Gu, I'm judging you now, the old man's family affairs, I won't bother you." Jiang Dequan looked at Gu Chen and said lightly.

Gu Chen pursed his lips: "Lord Jiang, what qualifications do you have to stand here and point fingers at this official if you have a personal gain and a loss, and you don't cultivate your internal skills?" ”

Jiang Dequan choked, so angry that his beard shook fiercely, but he couldn't refute it.

Regarding Jiang Dequan's back to raise the outer room and give birth to a child, there is no one in the Manchu Dynasty who does not know, so at this time, Gu Chen stabbed him out, and the eyes of all the people looking at Jiang Dequan were full of drama and good play.

Jiang Dequan only felt that those glances made him look like a man's back, which made him very embarrassed.

"Commander Gu, except for the things in Lord Jiang's private house, I think what Lord Jiang just said is right, firearms are the weapons of the country, how can you let a person with a foreign surname hold it in your hands? After all, this country is surnamed Song, and you should hand over this matter to the royal family to manage. The person who echoed Jiang Dequan just now stood up and said.

Gu Chen raised his eyes and glanced at the other party lightly: "Then He Zhongcheng thinks who should give this errand to?" Firearms are an extremely financially expensive thing, He Zhongcheng thinks, do you have the financial resources to take over this errand? ”

The man known as He Zhongcheng was speechless, if you want to talk about financial resources, what can compare to him Gu Chen in this capital?

Who doesn't know that today's saint has been in a period of poverty since he ascended to the present, and there has never been a time when the treasury is rich, Gu Chen uses money to talk about things, so what else can the emperor do?

He Zhongcheng was so angry that his face turned green, but for this, he really had no way to talk to Gu Chen.

However, although Gu Chen said that he was a military attaché, his mouth has always been not inferior to those officials, who followed Jiang Dequan just now to take away his errands, and he remembered them one by one, he would not cheapen them at this time.

"Or does Lord Zhu think that His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince or the King of Changle County has the strength to take over this errand? That's fine, it just so happens that I don't want to care about so many things, so I don't go home until midnight every day, and I don't have time to have a child with a woman, if Lord Zhu thinks that anyone else can take over my plate, I'm not unhappy to hand it over, it's just that I have to figure out my own way after taking this job, the silver thing. ”

The named Lord Zhu was the one who tried his best to persuade the emperor to let Song Xi of Changle County Yan take over just now, and he was caught by Gu Chen at this time, and his arrogance suddenly became a little shorter.

There's no way, who made Gu Chen rich!

From the improvement of firearms to mass production, people have spent their own money, and have not used a penny in the treasury at all, so it is no wonder that His Majesty is willing to entrust this errand to him.

Let's ask, there are few people in the Manchu Dynasty who can be richer than Gu Chen, and even if they do, who is willing to take out their own silver for national use?

It's the bloodline of the Heavenly Family like the Five Princes, who is still guarding the country of their Song family, and they can't use their own private treasury to build a large number of firearms, right?

Gu Chen's move undoubtedly took the emperor's pulse, and even if the emperor was unhappy, he could only leave the firearms matter to him for the time being.

"Xia Guan didn't say that, Xia Guan thought that firearms were very important, how could they not be handled by Lord Gu alone, in case this was the same as the assassin breaking into the palace the night before, how could Commander Gu ensure that everything could be done foolproof? Xia Guan thought it was better to be cautious, even if Commander Gu wanted to take care of it, then he had to send someone to take care of it for you. Master Zhu said confidently.

To put it nicely, it is a piece of pipe, to put it bluntly, he wants to send someone to Gu Chen's side to intervene, so that he can't make decisions on many things alone.

"Since Lord Zhu said so, then, in two days, the matter of sending people to send firearms to the border pass will be handed over to Lord Zhu to be responsible." Gu Chen said nonchalantly.

Lord Zhu choked, and then said hurriedly: "Xiaguan is a civil official, where can he receive such an errand, if something goes wrong, Xiaguan ...... "Love me."

He was so anxious that his face turned white, he had eaten in the capital for a long time in the capital in his life, even if he had to go out to experience at the beginning of that year, he had never been to such a difficult place as the border pass, not to mention that the road was far away, just talking about such a major thing as escorting firearms, if half of the road was robbed, then his little life was still there?

Lord Zhu is afraid of death!

"Since Lord Zhu refuses to go, then what is Lord Zhu talking about here? Do you want to push such a dangerous errand to the king of Changle to do? Or, let the five princes also go to the border to practice? When Gu Chen said this, he suddenly paused, and said, "This idea seems to be good, isn't His Royal Highness the Third Prince practicing at the border?" Now I've earned some military merit. ”

Lord Zhu was dumbfounded by him, and then looked back at the King of Changle County who was standing on the side without speaking, Lord Zhu only felt a chill in his back.

If the king of Changle County was really sent to the border to pass the firearm as Gu Chen said, it would be strange that the king of Changle County would not kill him when he turned around.

Those officials who originally wanted to stand in line with Master Zhu saw Gu Chen's kung fu, and immediately swallowed their words back, lest they really escort them to deliver firearms when they turned around, they didn't want to suffer that hardship.

Gu Chen was speechless when he sent the team to the station in a few words, and sneered in his heart, he dared to pluck the feathers on the tiger's head in a few moments, he really didn't know whether he was alive or dead.

At this time, the emperor had already finished reading the fold presented by Gu Chen, and he looked at Gu Chen with slightly gloomy eyes and said, "Gu Qing, what you said above is true?" ”

Gu Chen replied respectfully: "Back to Your Majesty, the minister is willing to confront Min Duwei, and, just before the sky, the minister has already ordered someone to catch the person who pressed the handprint, and at this time the person is already waiting outside the palace gate, and Your Majesty can pass the edict at any time." ”

The emperor glanced at Gu Chen deeply, the date written above was indeed the days when Gu Chen went out of the city, and he knew that all the defenses of the palace city were handed over to Min Duwei in those days.

"If Zhongqing has nothing to do, he will retreat, Gu Qing will follow me to the imperial study." After the emperor put down these words, he got up and walked towards the apse.

The civil and military officials looked at each other when they saw this, they didn't see the specific content written in Gu Chen's fold, but just looking at the emperor's attitude, they already knew that Gu Chen's crime of improper defense was about to escape.

For a while, everyone had mixed feelings, and there were even people who cast sympathetic or contemptuous glances at Jiang Dequan, those who wanted to take away Gu Chen's errand from the beginning, seemed to be famous at this time, it seemed that Gu Chen could not be defeated.

Then, they tried their best to bring him down just now, and if he didn't, then they would have to be retaliated.

For a while, the ministers who were still talking like knives just now were very uneasy in their hearts at this time.

Gu Chen didn't pay attention to them, in his opinion, these people just wanted to compete for the dragon's merit, seeing that the third prince was about to get up, they were just in a hurry to jump over the wall.

However, he didn't have time to pick them up right now.

He went out of the main hall and went to the imperial study.

……

Here, Qin Niang originally told Fang Yuanyuan that she would choose a good weather to hold a polo party, but she never thought that the porter's mother-in-law hurriedly came in to report: "Young lady, someone has come to the palace, saying that she wants to take you into the palace." ”

Qin Niang's eyebrows jumped, and she asked in surprise, "Who sent it?" ”

She didn't remember which nobleman in the palace she had a particularly good relationship with, and she needed to invite her into the palace, even if Song Ru occasionally liked to play with her, but Song Ru could leave the palace, and she didn't need to ask people to invite her into the palace.

"It's Concubine Jiang." The porter said.

Qin Niang was even more surprised at this moment, even Fang Yuanyuan was so shocked that she forgot that she still had fragrant snacks in her mouth, and directly opened her mouth wide, and was stunned for a while.

"Concubine Jiang sent someone to pick me up?" Qin Niang felt that the flower lady in this concierge was not old and misheard, she and Jiang Guifei didn't have a relationship, even if there was, it was also a festival, how could she suddenly send someone to invite her?

"Yes, that palace maid is indeed the one who claims to be Jiang Guifei, and she still has Jiang Guifei's token in her hand, so let the slave maid bring it in and show it to the young lady." Hua Pozi said and handed over a jade plate.

Qin Niang recognized it at a glance, this is true.

The things of the major nobles in the palace are generally free of counterfeiting.

"Sister Qin, why do I think that this Jiang Guifei suddenly sent someone to invite you with no good intentions, otherwise, you better not go, just let the next person go back and say that you are not in the mansion." Fang Yuanyuan said.

"Young lady, the big palace maid has been guarding outside, and if she doesn't want to come and receive someone, she won't leave."
