"What?" Gu Chengyu was shocked when he heard this, isn't the emperor joking?

"Your Majesty! Wechen is just a student of the Hanlin Academy! ”

The emperor looked at Gu Chengyu's expression of disbelief, he didn't feel funny in his heart, and his mood was much better than just now.

"Of course I know that you are an attendant of the Hanlin Academy, do you think that I am too old to even remember this?"

The emperor kept a straight face, picked up the unfinished book on the imperial case, and continued to look at it.

That's not right! Why didn't the emperor follow the routine? What is he going to do with the excitement of an official of the Hanlin Academy?

Isn't this a matter of Dali Temple? No matter how bad it is, you can order an official to go to the Inspectorate at random!

When will it be their turn to do such a thing? Could it be that other yamen are all furnished?

"Your Majesty! You also know that Wechen is just a civil official, and it will definitely not be possible to let Wechen fight and kill them, and this Wechen can't do it! ”

Gu Chengyu doesn't care if the emperor knows about his martial arts, he was an official in the imperial examination in order to enter the cabinet and become the first assistant of the cabinet above 10,000 people under one person.

He didn't want to charge, wasn't that what a military general should do? It has nothing to do with him.

"Who wants you to fight and kill?" The emperor glanced at Gu Chengyu, looked at Gu Chengyu's bitter gourd face, and inexplicably felt more refreshed.

"Wouldn't it be more difficult to do without fighting, killing, and killing?" Gu Chengyu shook his head vigorously, resolutely unable to agree.

"You've got brains!" The emperor laughed and picked up the next one.

"Your Majesty, this can't be done with brains! Look at Weichen's small body, it's not enough to stuff their teeth when they go to Hejian Mansion! ”

Just kidding, he didn't want to wade into this troubled water. This kind of thing is thankless, if the princes knew that he was meddling in this matter, they would not have to eat him alive?

This is the extraction of teeth, and he will definitely not agree to it if it is not beneficial. Ahh There are benefits and can not be agreed!

"Humph! I used to think you were so bold, but now why have you become timid? The emperor threw the fold on the table, and then snorted coldly.

"Your Majesty! People are self-aware, and Weichen is also powerless in this matter! Weichen is just a six-grade official, even if he goes to Hejian Mansion, who will sell Weichen's face? ”

Gu Chengyu smiled helplessly and sighed deeply.

"Weichen's official position is low, and there is no one available under his hands, so it will be in vain to go."

Gu Chengyu smashed his mouth, feeling that what he said was sincere.

"But you have a brain!" The emperor picked up the tea bowl on the imperial table, put it to his mouth and took a sip.

The corners of Gu Chengyu's mouth twitched, can you still have a good chat?

He took a deep breath, "Your Majesty, you also said just now, the princes have already participated in it, not to mention those families." Didn't you already send Master Ma from Dali Temple? Wouldn't it be right for you to leave this matter to him? ”

He didn't bother to bother with this, since the treasure map was already known to the emperor, it was too late.

He got the treasure map and had to hand it over to the emperor, and he offended those families and princes. It's just only a disadvantage, no benefit, why should he do it?

"If Ma Zhihong can do this, what else do I tell you to do?"

Let Ma Zhihong go to Hejian Mansion, the emperor was originally a trick.

This Ma Zhihong estimated that he would even have to hide the treasure map, let alone bring it back.

Gu Chengyu's eyebrows jumped, it seemed that the emperor was already very dissatisfied with Ma Zhihong.

It depends on how Ma Zhihong chooses, if Ma Zhihong chooses to conceal it, then what awaits him will only be a demotion to the official.

"Ma Da has only arrived in Hejian Mansion, and the emperor has received the news, so you are afraid that you have already sent a Qin messenger to Hejian Mansion, right? It's better to let the Qincha bring back the treasure map and release the news that you know the treasure map, and those people will definitely give the treasure map obediently. ”

The emperor sneered, "The wealth is moving, if these people are willing to hand it over obediently, why do you need to send a messenger to the past?" ”

Gu Chengyu smiled faintly, "If you let them hand it over like this, they will naturally be unhappy." But if you give them enough benefits, they will be overjoyed, and even if they are not in their own hands, they will find a way to get their hands and give it to you. ”

In fact, what Gu Chengyu said was just decent words, these families are easy to deal with, but what about those princes?

Can they be willing? What are the benefits that will make them tempted? Unless it's the crown prince, or even the throne.

But whether it is the crown prince or the throne, there is only one, and if one is given, the others are not satisfied.

If it is said that whoever grabs the treasure map and presents it will be made the crown prince, isn't that too child's play?

"I named you a messenger and gave you a gold medal, so you don't have to worry about the future, right?"

The emperor was a little impatient, and he also knew that it was unreasonable to let Gu Chengyu go, after all, Gu Chengyu was an official of the Hanlin Academy.

But he had his own considerations, in order to test Gu Chengyu.

Although he planned to support Gu Chengyu, it was also based on the fact that Gu Chengyu was a pure minister.

If Gu Chengyu had Longwang Shu and took this opportunity to stir up trouble and collude with the princes, then he would have to find someone else.

Besides, who knows if Gu Chengyu had colluded with any prince before? This is a good time to be tempted.

"Your Majesty! Weichen really can't do it! ”

Gu Chengyu is not afraid of the emperor's anger, what is the point of sealing the Qincha? What if the royal gold medal is given?

After this incident, the gold medal had to be withdrawn, and the identity of Qin Cha was even more useless, and he didn't get any benefits.

The emperor can see that this is a master who doesn't see rabbits and doesn't scatter eagles.

"Then if you bring back the treasure map, then I will let you be promoted to the next level, what do you think?"

The emperor felt that this condition was not ungenerous, and he also knew that if he wanted the horse to run, he had to feed the horse.

Besides, he originally had the intention of supporting Gu Chengyu, and it was nothing to be promoted to the next level.

Gu Chengyu's heart suddenly moved, it was impossible for him not to be tempted by this condition.

He remembered the scene of meeting the eldest princess in Bao'en Temple yesterday, and the desire in his heart was like open fangs, and it was out of control.

But he still shook his head after all, "Your Majesty! You Xu Weichen is promoted to a higher level, and Weichen is naturally willing. It's a pity, as you just said, wealth moves people's hearts, and there are always people who only love money and not power. Wei Chen couldn't be sure that he could do this, so he could only try to keep this treasure map from falling into the hands of any faction. ”

"What does that mean?" The emperor's face was even darker than before, and there was already a trace of anger in his heart.

Gu Chengyu also knew that the emperor was unhappy, but he was not a god, and he could not guarantee that the treasure map would be brought back intact, so he could only fight for the final benefits for himself.
