As soon as Han Jian looked at the old man's eager gaze, he knew that he had been forced by the empress recently.

Gu Weipan's troubles were first to prepare the plans and detailed rules for building the tower, and now to raise donations from the people who built the tower. Although Han Jian's mention yì is streamlined, the essence makes Gu Weipan feel that he has seen the light of day.

"Want to hear more?" Han Jian's face suddenly sank, and he was silent for a while.

Just when Gu Weipan thought that Han Jian would propose some harsh quid pro quo, Han Jian suddenly smiled and said, "Then Chief Gu, let's go aside and talk about it in detail?" ”

"You guys?" Cui Mingli on the side pointed at Han Jian and Gu Weipan, as if to say, you are actually a wolf!

"Old man Cui, we are discussing the great plan for the benefit of the country and the people, for the country, for the court, and for His Majesty. Do you have an opinion? ”

Cui Ming's face was hideous as if he was about to kill, and he stared at Han Jian for a long time, and finally reluctantly brushed his sleeves away. When he walked out of the door of the meditation hall, Han Jian could still hear him say "not like words" from a distance.

Han Jian smiled, although Cui Mingli didn't have a good temper with him, he was the arrogance of a literati. After all, Cui Mingli is a relative of his third aunt, Han Cui's family, in Cui Mingli's opinion, since he is a family, how can he help the enemy?

When Cui Mingli left, Gu Weipan pulled down his old face and invited Han Jian to sit aside, this treatment surprised the people in the entire meditation hall, the donkey-tempered Chief Gu would be so approachable to ask for other people's opinions, that person is still a young junior?

"Chief Gu, if you want to talk about it in detail, there is nothing to go into detail." Han Jian sat down, picked up a cup of tea, and said eloquently, "What was summarized just now is almost the same, as long as it is implemented in detail." For example, this matter cannot be donated in the name of Fujana, the intention is too obvious, and those who are businessmen will inevitably doubt the sincerity of the imperial court.

In addition, the minimum amount of donations should also be stipulated, and it cannot be said that you can engrave your name on the tower tablet by donating one tael of silver, or one thousand or two thousand taels. Regarding the top position of this signature, but the key is to hold an auction, who has more money, and who gives this first position to whom. Not only can it be signed, but it can also be signed with the deeds of his life for future generations to admire......"

Han Jian doesn't need to make drafts when he speaks, anyway, this is not his job. As for the identity of the adviser minister of the Shangting Office, Han Jian should not have a part-time job, and so far he doesn't even know how much he earns every month, let alone work hard.

Speaking of the back, Gu Weipan found that the official in charge of recording next to him couldn't keep up with Han Jian's eloquent conversation, and he sometimes had to interrupt Han Jian's words to inquire in detail.

After Han Jian finished speaking, he found that Gu Weipan and the clerk were staring at him with wide eyes. Han Jian smiled and said, "If there is anything you don't understand, just ask." ”

"No need." Gu Weipan found that he had lost face this time, and he felt that his old face had nowhere to rest, and if he asked again, he would almost have no face to be the chief minister of this listening office, "Okay, you go out." The old man wants to write a recital, so he won't accompany him. ”

Han Jian sighed helplessly, this is a typical monk after fasting. However, Gu Weipan has this temper, he is also used to it, and today Gu Weipan is also kind and angry with him.

Han Jian got up and returned to the Kusi hall. There was still only Lao Liu, the porter, in the treasury department, Han Jian sat there and had nothing to do, and found a few books of the treasury department's entry and exit records in previous years to look through, all of which were very trivial things, Han Jian looked at it for a while and felt bored, seeing that it was almost noon, he also packed up his mood and prepared to go to Gu Mansion to make an appointment.

Just as he was about to leave, Ma Jining, the leader of the Treasury Department, hurriedly came over, and hurriedly greeted Han Jian when he saw him.

"Your Highness, ...... are you" Ma Jining stared at the record book in Han Jian's hand as soon as he came in.

"Oh, it's okay to find something to look at, let's be familiar with the job." After Han Jian finished speaking casually, he closed the record book, got up and was about to leave.

"Your Highness, wait a minute......" Han Jian took a few steps, and Ma Jining said suddenly.

"Something?" Han Jian turned to look at Ma Jining.

Ma Jining said with some apprehension in his heart: "Your Highness wants to look through the transcript, you might as well go to the Liku Yamen, where the transcription is more detailed." ”

"Huh?" Han Jian frowned and said, "Oh, let's have time." Ma Bu Ling is okay, right? I'll go first, it's almost noon, and I'm a little hungry when I talk about it. ”

"Your Highness go slowly, Your Highness go slowly." Ma Jining sent Han Jian out, and hurriedly went back to roughly flip through the record book that Han Jian had just flipped.

Ma Jining wondered in his heart, these record books are all records on the surface, which can be found anywhere, and this also needs to be checked? If the East King came to the Treasury for the case of previous years, then why hasn't he asked the slightest question until now?

Since Han Jian took office, Ma Jining has been guarding against Han Jian, and it can even be said that Han Jian, the "second-in-command" power of the Treasury Division, has been hollowed out. He thought that Han Jian would soon be unable to sit still and make a move, but so far, Han Jian has not shown any gesture of picketing the treasury for corruption.

At this time, Han Jian didn't take what happened just now, he went out and was exposed to the sun, he yawned, and was about to cross the rockery in the courtyard to walk to the door, when he saw Gu Weipan sitting in the pavilion, holding a copy of the book and discussing with the two officials.

When Han Jian came out, Gu Weipan's side also happened to finish the discussion, and as soon as Gu Weipan looked up, he saw Han Jian and lowered his face slightly. Han Jian smiled slightly, and said hello.

"Where are you going?" Gu Weipan asked.

"Don't hide it, I'm going to visit the house." Han Jian said, "Don't get me wrong, I was invited by Ling Yuan to go to the house as a guest." It's not about ruining your old man's life. ”

"You're going to the old man's house?" Gu Weipan said coldly.

"What's the matter, Chief Gu won't allow it?" Han Jian had a strange look on his face, as if to say, you won't let me go if you don't go back?

"It's okay for you to go." Gu Weipan suddenly became a little irritable and said, "Originally, I was going to tell you about this, and asked you to accompany the old man back to the house, since you went today, then I will go along." ”

"Peers?" Han Jian looked at Gu Weipan in surprise.

If Gu Weipan looked back at the mansion when he said goodbye, Han Jian would definitely think that this was a good thing, and if the relationship between their family eased, then Gu Xin'er would be grateful to him, and then he would take the opportunity to get closer to Gu Xin'er more. But today he went to Gu Mansion to make an appointment, what is the matter when Gu Weipan goes back, as soon as this big light bulb returns to the house, who in the Gu family still has the heart to entertain him.

"Chief Gu, do you want to ...... Do you change the time? Han Jian asked tentatively.

Gu Weipan also frowned, originally the empress personally asked him about his family affairs, he felt that this was a stain on his many years as an official, and after so many years, the hatred he should have had has long been diluted. He also has a heart to ease up with his family. But he values face and can't let go of his face, and now that he has Han Jian's fulcrum, he wants to take advantage of it.

"The old man entered the palace, and played the matter of donating the silver money for the construction of the tower, and returned to the house when he came back. You go first. Gu Weipan seemed to say that the order was not allowed to be refused by Han Jian, and before parting, Gu Weipan instructed again, "I remember that after returning home, when others asked, they said that you and the old man had something to do and went back to the house to discuss......

Han Jian looked at the back of Gu Weipan who left first, and said in his heart that this stubborn old man wanted to save face and suffer the crime, and now he wanted to pull down his face, so he had to find the bottom of the stairs by himself. Han Jian thought about it again, in fact, this is also very good, persuade peace or not to persuade him to leave, and he doesn't want the Gu family to be separated because of this. Gu Weipan's easing of relations with his family can not only make Gu Xin'er's mother get what she wants to have her husband with her, but also make Gu Xin'er grateful to him, which is also a good thing for Old Man Gu, at least the women and sons outside Old Man Gu can also have a reputation, and they don't have to be looked down upon by others.

In the Wei Dynasty, to marry a concubine, you had to pass the level of the main wife.

Han Jian walked out of the general office of the Shangting Office and walked to the Gu Mansion with the guards. In front of the Gu Mansion, the door was closed, and Han Jian was thinking about the unpleasant thing that happened when he knocked on the door last time, but he saw the door of the Gu Mansion "creak" open, and Gu Xin'er walked out with a young girl.

Gu Xin'er was wearing a pale yellow long dress, very demure and feminine, while the girl looked a little lively and active in a white dress. As soon as the two of them came out, they saw Han Jian, and Gu Xin'er greeted them with a smile.

"Your Highness has arrived so soon." Gu Xin'er said with a smile, "The little woman thought that His Highness had forgotten today's invitation, and was about to go to the Yamen of the Shangting Office to invite His Highness again." Your Highness, please come in. ”

Han Jianxin said that Gu Xin'er was really enthusiastic, and he was afraid that he would not come, so he specially went over to invite him again. At that moment, he greeted the guards first, asked the guards to go back first, and he walked with Gu Xin'er to the door of the mansion.

"It is a privilege to be invited here." Han Jian smiled, "There is one more thing, a moment...... Ling Zun, maybe come over together. ”

"Really?" Gu Xin'er looked at Han Jian with some surprise in her words.

"It's hard to say what he said himself. Oh, and he told me that he was back home because he had something to talk to me about. Han Jian directly revealed the secrets that Gu Weipan confessed to him.

"Thank you so much, Your Highness." Gu Xin'er invited Han Jian into the house. Han Jian also entered the Gu Mansion for the first time, and the main courtyard was very open, but there was not even a tree in the empty space, like a small square half the size of a small square.

Han Jian was about to walk to the main hall with Gu Xin'er, but saw that the girl next to him had been peeking at him. This girl is not very old, about fifteen or sixteen years old, and she looks very delicate with bright teeth and bright eyes. Han Jianxin said that he should have seen this girl for the first time, but for some reason he always felt familiar.

"Classmate, have we met?" Han Jian asked with a harmless smile on his face.

"Yes...... It's him. The girl suddenly pulled Gu Xin'er's arm and shouted, "Senior sister, it's him, at the piano meeting that day, it was he who smashed Pan Fuzi's piano, and the girl who sang "Outside the Long Pavilion" was his maid...... The one who plays the stringless piano is also him. ”
