Chapter 198: Rebels and Thieves

At a young age, he climbed to the status of the prime minister, a talent, and his ability and means are quite neat, he was originally trained by the old man to assist him, but now Gusu Haoyue is in power, and the position is very embarrassing, if he is the old man's person, but it is also the old man's deliberate cultivation to assist him, if it is said that it is the person of Gusu Haoyue, he has a wide friendship with the old man. But it is one of the few old ministers who Gusu Haoyue rarely left, this person is very frank, and his age is only about the same as that of Gusu Haoyue, and he is also dignified, and he always gives people a clear feeling of right and wrong, if it weren't for the fact that he was a person trained by the old man himself, Gusu Haoyue would be quite willing to call him a brother. However, in the face of Gu Su Haoyue's deliberate snubbing, Gu Xiang did not necessarily retreat, but had a feeling that everything had to be taken into account.

Gu Su Haoyue's eyes full of evil charm swept over, and several adults hurriedly lowered their heads, but Gu Xiang was the only one who still held his head high, and Gu Su Haoyue still looked at him when he looked over, and he didn't have any fear of the Son of Heaven. Probably feeling bored, Gu Su Haoyue lazily withdrew her eyes and fell on her slender fingers, and unconsciously, this action added a little laziness.

"Master is the appearance of this ruffian, Master Gu, didn't the old man tell you about it? How idle is the master's life in Bianjing, which fireworks and willow lane in Bianjing has not been visited, in other words, it is to be windy and rainy, and it is much more comfortable to stay in this broken palace. Why should Master Gu care about this bad habit of the little master? Gu Su Haoyue's tone was three points frivolous and seven points evil, and he didn't mean to be angry at all, but it made the listener break out in a cold sweat on his back, but he really smiled with a harmless face.

As soon as these words came out, Gu Xiang immediately stepped forward and saluted, and replied in a dignified tone: "The emperor is serious, and the lower officials do not look down on the emperor." It's just that if the ruler doesn't show a little bit of what the ruler should be, the people below will naturally be loosely integrated, and the minister is just giving an opinion, and he doesn't want the emperor to work hard to make a mess in the end. ”

The topic rose to this point, Gu Su Haoyue obviously had no intention of continuing, waved her hand at Gu Xiang, and said casually: "Heh, Gu Xiang rest assured, the master will not be cheap for those chaotic ministers and thieves." ”

This is subtle when he says this, Gusu Haoyue does not name names, and everyone knows who he is talking about as soon as they hear it.

The atmosphere became subtle for a moment, Gu Xiang didn't say anything to refute, and he didn't get angry when he let several other officials throw some strange looks at him one by one, he was frank and brisk.

"Your Majesty, how do you think about the tribute?" Master Shen, who was mistakenly called "Lord Chang", took the lead in breaking the deadlock, drooping his head and not daring to raise his head, his eyes seemed to be nailed to the ground, and he had no intention of raising them.

Gu Su Haoyue picked up the cup on the table, and was about to take a sip of tea in a good mood, but suddenly found that the water did not know how many days it had been placed, fortunately he didn't have time to drink it, put down the cup, and greeted outside, and the next moment a palace maid came in, and she trembled and changed a new cup of tea to Gu Su Haoyue, which delayed some time, and several adults who were cold on the side were waiting for Gu Su Haoyue's reply, but it was just a thing that didn't work, and if it dragged on for a long time, it would make people feel that they were deliberately delaying. However, even if they wanted to ask again, they could not find a suitable time.

Gu Su Haoyue took the newly replaced tea, thanked the palace maid very kindly, and then drank it by herself.

Finally, when they thought that Gusu Haoyue didn't want to talk about this topic, Gusu Haoyue spoke leisurely, "A few adults, how do you say that you are also the patriarch of our Tianchu, and you have been an official in the imperial court for several years, don't you know that national affairs can't be mixed with personal affairs?" You see, if I use my friendship with Prince Jin for so many years in exchange for the little benefits of the Tianchu Kingdom in front of me, if Prince Jin wants our entire Tianchu Kingdom in the future, will I also give him the entire Tianchu Kingdom? ”

"Your Majesty, you can't say that... While this is a flawed approach, it is the best way to do it right now. If the emperor has a better way..."Lord Shen tried to reason with Gu Su Haoyue, but before he finished speaking, he saw the cup in Gu Su Haoyue's hand slip, and it fell to the ground with a squirt, and it shattered into countless pieces at once. The little palace maid outside quickly ran in, bent down and was about to pick up the broken glass, but saw Gu Su Haoyue waving her hand and letting them each push aside.

"Hey, my hand slipped a little, didn't scare the adults, did I?" Gu Su Haoyue looked at the few adults who were clubbing on the side with a smile, as if she didn't see their frightened faces, and joked to herself.

"I have a way on my side, but I don't know if you are willing to serve the country." Gusu Haoyue suddenly smiled and charmed all beings, a pair of peach blossom eyes full of calculations, falling on several adults, unconsciously making people have a gloomy feeling of being swept up in the body by a snake.

"If the emperor has a way, we are naturally willing to serve without success." Several adults replied one after another.

Gu Su Haoyue nodded with satisfaction, and then said: "The method you said is indeed deliberately considered, but even if Su Mujin can reduce the burden on Tianchu in my face, in the final analysis, it is still necessary to pay tribute to Dongyue, and it will naturally be very difficult with our current financial resources." I heard that Lord Shen's family has a group of wives and concubines, and there are even more fertile fields and real estate everywhere. ”

That Lord Shen was stunned all of a sudden, and he didn't expect that Gusu Haoyue would cut him down. God knows how aggrieved he is in his heart, didn't Fang Caigu Su Haoyue still call his surname wrong? Where did you hear that his house is full of fertile fields and houses?

"And this one... If the master is not mistaken, it should be Lord Zhu, right? I see you've been quite busy lately, and your new restaurant is doing pretty well, right? Gu Su Haoyue's eyes fell on the other Lord Zhu who had only said a word from beginning to end, and the Lord Zhu who looked at it was cold and cold, and wondered in her heart, how did Gu Su Haoyue know so much.

Speaking of this, Gusu Haoyue seemed to know what Master Zhu was thinking, so she simply explained it and said, "Oh, it's a crispy chicken that Moon Shadow found for me in the capital a few days ago, I have tasted it, it tastes really good, and I will let people visit it next time." ”

Gu Su Haoyue read the family background of several adults as if she were reciting, and while talking, she also praised the real wealth of adults, and several adults had to smile hard. He said it so obviously, everyone could hear what Gusu Haoyue meant.

One after another, and the last one was Gu Xiang's turn, Gu Su Haoyue moved the corners of her mouth, and before she could speak, Gu Xiang took it and said: "The emperor's method is really good, although the treasury is in deficit now, many ministers in the court have a very good family background." Since there is extra money, now that the country is in trouble, it is natural that it should take the initiative to donate to the country. ”

Gu Su Haoyue hurriedly interrupted the practice of obviously getting cheap and selling well, and explained: "Master Gu, you said anything about donations, but the master didn't say it was a donation." As soon as these words were finished, several adults were even more heartbroken.

"The ministers are eating the country's money, so naturally there is no reason to take it back."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

...

Gusu Haoyue nodded with satisfaction, in a good mood, and immediately asked people to bring the four treasures of the study, and finally drafted a holy decree, and finally covered it with a jade seal, handed it to Gu Xiang, and instructed: "Master Gu, this matter will be handed over to you, and you must cover it to do it." ”

Gu Xiang took the holy decree, glanced at it hurriedly, and then his face sank, and when he looked up at Gu Su Haoyue, he happened to meet him with a grinning face, and waited for him to speak.

It is too direct to directly collect half of the property of officials, and it is also a donation to the state. Whoever takes this kind of work will be unlucky, not to mention being beaten, and spitting and saliva can drown a person. And the donor country's practice is also Gu Xiang's own words, and now this matter is called to him to do it, no one can't help but wonder if Gu Su Haoyue is deliberately targeting Gu Xiang, but Gu Su Haoyue smiled harmlessly, Gu Xiang who was targeted did not mean to hide it except for his ugly face, and he also threatened to do things well.

After a few masters left dejectedly, Moon Shadow came in from outside the house, only to see a few adults go out with a sad face, and after asking, I realized that the file that Gusu Haoyue asked him to prepare a few days ago was like this.

"Master, do you really want to do this? Aren't you afraid of angering them? Moon Shadow said worriedly, although he is in town, no one dares to have a little dissatisfaction with Gusu Haoyue, but Gusu Haoyue is really a little too much this time, what is half of the concept, will it be too ruthless?

Gusu Haoyue shrugged her shoulders, looking fearless, and then said something that could anger people and not pay for her life, "Whatever, it's not the master who is going to do this anyway." ”

Moon Shadow hesitated for a long time, but after thinking about it, she chose to speak, "Master, when are you going to leave?" ”

Gu Su Haoyue thought for a while, and gradually replied: "I'll leave it all to you to arrange, I can do it anytime." ”

"That girl has been in good health lately, but she often stares at the courtyard away from Manzhu Sahua in a daze. Do you want to pay a visit before you leave? Moon Shadow asked cautiously.

Gu Su Haoyue sighed lightly and said, "After all, I lost her, so I should go and see it." ”
