Chapter 025: The second gift
Yingzhou has a waterway that leads to Yanjing.
The previous dynasty dug this waterway for the sake of transportation.
The south and other places are rich, and a large amount of food and salary is sent to Yanjing by water every year.
Therefore, Yingzhou is an important place for Dayan.
During the reign of the first emperor, even if the court was turbulent, because Yingzhou had not been lost, the qi of the Dayan royal family did not come to an end.
This is also the reason why His Majesty wants to recruit the Kong family and favor the Kong family.
The Kong family is well versed in the sea conditions, and they don't have any city government, so they won't bring him too much trouble, and they can guard Yingzhou for him well.
"The map of the three islands around Yingzhou?" Kong Zhao was stunned, "Is there such a thing?" ”
"Do you know which three islands are near Yingzhou?"
Gu Yaolian nodded, "The three islands around Yingzhou are Xuanwu Island, Gushan Island, and Hanshan Island. Now Gushan Island is in the hands of Dayan, while Xuanwu Island and Hanshan Island are in the hands of Dongfan. ”
"I'm afraid that the map in the hands of the Kong family is only from Gushan Island, right?"
Kong Zhao was surprised by Gu Yaolian's familiarity with Yingzhou, and he didn't hide it from her, "Although the Kong family doesn't have a map of Xuanwu Island, we are very familiar with Xuanwu Island. If Dongfan dares to attack Yingzhou again, he will definitely put his army on Xuanwu Island. What we have is a way to keep them from approaching Gushan Island. ”
Kong Zhao didn't care about the pain in his stomach, and began to talk to Gu Yaolian about Yingzhou's situation.
Gu Yao's obsession with listening to it was not half perfunctory, which made Kong Zhao very happy.
Even though the people of Dayan are open, the men still think that women should reproduce in the inner house, and the affairs of the court are something that they can't talk about as ignorant women.
A woman's lack of talent is virtue.
"If there is a map of Xuanwu Island and Hanshan Island." Kong Zhao swore an oath, "My Kong family will never let Dongfan step into Gushan Island for half a step." ”
She said it confidently, and Gu Yaolian also believed it.
When he arrived at Kong's house, Gu Yaolian carefully talked about today's events with Kong Yu, and Kong Yao was also shocked by Gu Yaolian's words.
"The Liu family has no opinion on this?" Kong Yu was stunned, "That's a precious map." ”
"If the Liu family is really willing to give us the map, let alone let Xiao Zhaozhao'er eat nutmeg, that is, let her eat epsom leaves, dried peach blossoms, and laxatives...... You can eat it for a few years. ”
Gu Yaolian: "......"
Is Kong Zhao really biological?
Yang Du, who is Kong Zhao's biological mother, glared at him after hearing her husband's words.
Kong Yu stopped talking, Yang Du stepped forward and said to Gu Yaolian, "Zhao Zhao told me that she saw a fairy-like girl, I thought she had little knowledge, and after entering Beijing, everyone she saw was like a fairy." ”
"But I don't want what she said to be true." Yang Duxiao was kind, "Miss Gu Er is not only beautiful, but also kind-hearted. ”
Yang Du pulled Gu Yaolian to sit down, looking serious, "Why did you leak this news to us?" ”
"Since ancient times, swords and heroes have been matched, and this map has fallen into the hands of others, and it is just a water route for smuggling spices." Gu Yao said sincerely, "But if it is given to Master Kong, the people of Yingzhou will no longer have to worry about the invasion of the east, and the glasses will be truly stable when they go to the waterways of Yingzhou." ”
If Yingzhou is stable, even if my uncle becomes a hot transfer envoy in the future, he will not be exploited.
Yang Duyan sat down steadily.
Since the Confucian family entered Beijing, except for the right minister and the current majesty, everyone is full of malice towards the Confucian family.
They look down on the Kong family, but they want to win over the relationship.
There are even people who want to marry their abandoned concubine to her second son.
Although Yang Du didn't care what outsiders said about him, he couldn't watch them abuse his husband and children.
Therefore, at the flower banquet, if Yang Duruo meets someone who belittles his children, he will not be merciful.
It's easy to put the icing on the cake, but it's hard to send charcoal in the snow.
If the Kong family can really protect Yingzhou, then the position of the Kong family in the capital will be completely stable.
Yang Du looked at Gu Yaopian and still wanted to refuse.
This child leaked the affairs of the foreign family, if the foreign family knows, how should Gu Yaolian deal with himself?
Yang Du didn't want to put Gu Yaolian in a difficult situation because of Gu Yaolian's kindness - these maps were too precious.
But Gu Yaolian insisted on this, and even claimed that Kong Zhao had a life-saving grace for him, etc., and Yang Du could not refuse Gu Yaolian's kindness again.
She has been in Yingzhou for many years, how can she not know the suffering caused by the war to the people?
"I'll leave this matter to you?" Yang Du frowned, "Actually, I don't need you to come forward, I also have a way to get the Liu family to hand over the map." ”
For the sake of the overall situation, Gu Yaolian told all the treasures of the Liu family, and Yang Du naturally didn't want to let this child come forward again.
Not only will he not let Gu Yaolian come forward, but he will also hide from everyone that Gu Yaolian leaked this matter.
Gu Yao smiled and said, "Mrs. Yang, you and I don't have to come forward, it's better to leave this matter to my cousin!" ”
"My cousin is very intelligent and warm-hearted, and he is now working in Dali Temple at a young age." Gu Yaolian praised Song Linyuan constantly, "He will definitely be able to do this well, and he will not let people find the slightest mistake." ”
Song Linyuan, who had just entered the living room: "......"
Warm-hearted? She said he was warm-hearted?
He looked at the girl sitting in front of Yang, with a confident smile in his eyes, and the pink hibiscus jade earrings swayed gently with her movements.
The bright eyes are bright and the moon is bright, and the peach blossoms are scorching.
The Yang family found out about Song Linyuan's arrival before Gu Yaolian, because of Gu Yaolian's praise for him, the Yang family also had a good impression of Song Linyuan.
Gu Yaolian raised his eyes to meet his gaze, and there seemed to be autumn water in his eyes.
In the Kong family, although the Yang family is the smartest, compared to Song Linyuan, there is also a disparity between heaven and earth.
Yang Du only said a few words, and Song Linyuan understood why Gu Yaolian asked her to go to Liu's house to ask for things.
The Kong family will agree to the right minister's recruitment, but in fact, it is not for fame and profit, they want the world to be peaceful and the people live and work in peace and contentment.
If he gets the map for the Kong family, the Kong family, who has always protected his shortcomings, will naturally be grateful to him.
Gu Yaolian is paving the way for him again......
first asked him to stay in the capital and find an errand with Pei Yu's relationship. Now let him make friends with the Kong family, and after gaining the trust of the Kong family, he will be able to gain a firm foothold in the capital.
As long as Yingzhou is here, the position of the Kong family will be stable, so even if he is in trouble, someone will help him.
Song Linyuan narrowed his eyes slightly, and looked at Gu Yaolian's eyes with a little more doubt.
Why should she help him?
He obviously didn't have anything.
"Okay." Song Linyuan accepted Gu Yaolian's kindness, he looked at Gu Yaolian and breathed a sigh of relief, but he couldn't help but hook his lips and smile lightly.
Is she worried about her refusal?
Why did he refuse?
He knew that Kong Zhao was coming to Dali Temple, and he deliberately appeared in front of Kong Zhao in order to gain the trust of the Kong family.
"It's getting late, I'll send my cousin home first." Song Linyuan got up and said goodbye to the Kong family, "I will definitely bring good news to Master Kong in a few days." ”
As soon as they left, Kong Zhao spoke, "Mother, I didn't lie to you, Yao Lian really looks like a fairy." ”
"I told my second brother, and my second brother also said that I was blinded by eye droppings. If there really is such a celestial immortal, he will definitely come to the door to propose marriage. ”
"Propose?" Yang looked at Kong Zhao with a slightly sarcastic look in his eyes, "Even your second brother is worthy of Miss Gu Er?" ”
"He's stupid and stupid, he doesn't know a few big characters, and he still thinks about people? Less daydreaming. ”
"You too, in the future, in front of Miss Gu Er, you are not allowed to mention this matter."
Kong Zhao: "......"
Kong Bei, who was standing on the side, smiled helplessly, if he didn't know his mother's temperament, he would have doubted whether he was biological.
At that time, Song Linyuan sent Gu Yaolian back to Bofu for the second time.
The difference was that this time he was sitting in the carriage.
