Chapter 440: A Serious Nonsense

"Definitely! Could it be that Gu Aiqing will still be able to heal? The emperor teased casually.

Gu Chengyu shook his head, your eyes are blank, your eyes are bruised, and your eye circles are black, at a glance, it is a sign of excessive indulgence and staying up late.

However, this is not to be said.

"Wechen is not good at medical skills, but I heard that if you often feel tired, it is not only due to physical reasons, but also because of too much psychological pressure. Your Majesty, you might as well mediate your emotions, and then combine work and rest, and your body will definitely be healthier than before. ”

Gu Chengyu stated with a serious expression, and rolled his eyelids when De'an on the side spoke. At the same time, in my heart, this Master Gu's ability to be serious nonsense is not small.

"Oh? Do you mean that I need to relax and rest more so that my body can be healthy? ”

The imperial doctor actually instructed him like this, but the emperor always listened to this set of remarks, and his ears were calloused, so he was naturally impatient to listen. As the king of a country, the emperor just wants to relax, and those courtiers will not allow it.

But Gu Chengyu changed his words, and the emperor felt fresh, so he naturally listened to it. It's a pity that just because you can listen to it doesn't mean you will do it.

Gu Chengyu said this in order to change the topic with the emperor, otherwise if the emperor held on to the matter of age, he was afraid that he would not be able to help but say something that should not be said.

Besides, isn't the most fundamental reason still because the years are unforgiving? If you want him to say, "How can a man not grow old?" Earlier, the crown prince was appointed and the heirs of the country were selected, which could also save them a lot of troubles for these courtiers.

Now I'm afraid that those princes can't wait, and they continue to act in private, and they will make too many rights and wrongs. He's a little shrimp, he can't stand the destruction!

"It's a pity that I can't take it easy even if I want to! I have too many things to worry about, Gu Aiqing, what do you say I should do? ”

Gu Chengyu almost rolled his eyes when he asked this, what to do in a circle, wouldn't it be better to say something directly? Does he have to voluntarily jump into the pit, so as to appear that the emperor is extremely smart and strategic?

"Your Majesty! You can find your courtiers! Shouldn't all the officials in the court solve your problems? As courtiers, this is our duty. Like Lord Shoufu, those Lord Shangshu, etc., they are all looking forward to doing their best for you! ”

Gu Chengyu saw that the emperor didn't say anything about the purpose of summoning him today, so he had to jump down the emperor's pit. In fact, he is very busy, and there are still two volumes of actual records that have not been proofread!

"Humph! These people, if they want to talk about benefits, they must run faster than anyone else. When it came time to do practical things or make up ideas, they all shrank back. ”

The emperor has long been dissatisfied with these people, they are all second-rank and above in high positions, and they often fought for red faces in the early dynasties, but they couldn't get a result.

Gu Chengyu was a little embarrassed when he heard this, the emperor counted those big people in front of him, of course he couldn't respond.

Fortunately, the emperor didn't ask Gu Chengyu to answer at all, but just counted them down again.

"Gu Aiqing! You said that as one of the courtiers, do you also have to share my worries? ”

When Gu Chengyu heard this, he knew that he could finally get to the point, and he was relieved, the emperor was really idle! It seems that there are still too few twists and turns.

In fact, the emperor went around in such a big circle because of what happened next, which made him a little embarrassed.

"If you can share the emperor's worries, it is naturally the honor of Weichen. However, Weichen is afraid that his own ability is insufficient, and he is unable to do it! ”

Gu Chengyu felt that the emperor had gone around in such a big circle today, and what he wanted to say was either embarrassing for him, or embarrassing for the emperor himself, which had to make him deal with it carefully.

As soon as the emperor heard this, he knew that this son was not slippery, and he was a thief.

"Gu Aiqing! I've heard that your family made a fortune because of your soap recipe, but is there such a thing? The emperor paced to the imperial case and sat down, and looked at Gu Chengyu who was standing in front of him.

Gu Chengyu was a little surprised, how could the emperor suddenly care about his family history? For a moment, he thought of Xia Qing, who had been knocked out.

I was shocked, the emperor shouldn't have taken a fancy to his little money, right? Xia Qing's clansmen were greedy for a lot of silver, but he didn't have that much. Although restaurants and pastry shops have brought him a lot of profits in the past two years, and fat powder has also begun to make profits, his money is really not worth it to the state treasury.

Gu Chengyu calculated this in his heart, not to mention, he has really made a lot of money in the past few years, and it adds up to more than 200,000 taels.

"Ahem!"

The emperor's cough instantly pulled Gu Chengyu's mind back from wandering in the world.

"Back to the emperor! Soap is just a small profit! Weichen's family only relied on the small soap workshop to make some money, and the expensive soaps were all made by those merchants. ”

His family can't do business on the surface, so it's not bad, but the emperor doesn't know about his commission from Master Wang.

The emperor suddenly laughed, and scolded Gu Chengyu angrily: "What? Do you still think I can take a fancy to your little profit? ”

The emperor doesn't look down on that bit of silver, the soap recipe is a good thing, if you can sell more soap, then the profit is naturally considerable. But Gu Chengyu is only a six-grade person, and those businessmen just want to rely on Gu Chengyu to sell more soap, and they don't dare to do it.

However, his purpose today is not here, and when he really can't do anything in the future, he can't really make up his mind.

"Hey, hey! The emperor naturally doesn't look down on it, but it's just a recipe for Weichen's family to make a living. "Gu Chengyu didn't believe that the emperor hadn't had the idea of this soap recipe.

In fact, if the emperor can ask for Fang Zi, he will eat meat and drink soup by himself, which is not impossible. It's just that there are essential oils in the soap recipe, and this recipe has always been held in his hand, and it is also widely used in fat powder, so it is impossible for him to hand it over.

"Now that the DPRK and the Central Government are up and down, who does not know about the emptiness of the treasury? I'm also incompetent! ”

After saying that, the emperor sighed, frowned, and became depressed.

Gu Chengyu hurriedly replied: "Your Majesty, I can't blame you for this matter!" It was also the previous war that drained the treasury. Since the establishment of this dynasty, the people have been recuperating and recuperating, and the taxes are not heavy. Under your rule, the people live and work in peace and contentment, which can be said to be the peace and security of the country and the people, and it is not far from the prosperous era. ”

De'an finally saw Lord Gu's mouth today, and he was afraid that even if he was dead, he could say that he was alive.

When the emperor heard this, his face was really gentle, and his heart was extremely satisfied.

In fact, what Gu Chengyu said was not all flattery, it was a fact that the taxes of the Dayan Dynasty were not high.

The continuous conquests of the previous dynasty have made the treasury empty, and it has not yet eased up. The country has undergone another change of dynasty, and now the people are just living a life without food.

As for prosperity and staying at night, according to the current point of view, it is far from the same.

Gu Chengyu's words are certainly exaggerated, but the treasury is empty, and it is really not to blame Emperor Huiming.
