Chapter 330: Appointment
A good generation of loyal ministers was unexpectedly accused of trumped-up crimes, and it was too late to die.
Then Song Shujing is also wronged! Exiled for thousands of miles, maybe you will die on the way. Even if you don't die, watching your family fall apart and still suffering, it must be better to live than to die.
and that Guo Shi, he will always harm others and himself. If he hadn't been greedy, he wouldn't have caused such trouble. Pity his family, he was implicated, and in the end, he couldn't die well.
However, fortunately, the Guo family left three bloodlines earlier, and Gu Chengyu can be regarded as leaving a foundation for his Guo family.
Gu Chengyu felt chills all over his body, this political game involved innocent people, and was regarded as pawns by those who played with power.
Only then did he deeply feel that this was the real supremacy of imperial power, and this was the Zhao family's country.
In this way, the eldest prince will be punished privately at most, and it is impossible to deal with it in the open.
made such a big mistake, and it was resolved so lightly, the emperor didn't want to investigate it thoroughly in the first place, right? Regarding the favor of the eldest prince, Gu Chengyu has a new understanding.
"Childe! I received a post from the concierge just now, and it was sent by Hu Fu. "When the steward of the outer courtyard sent the daily posts, he separated the posts of the Hu Mansion. After all, it is an official of the imperial court, and the others are invitations to some literary meetings.
"Oh? Show me! Gu Chengyu didn't have to guess to know that it was Hu Maoshen who couldn't hold back, Hu Maoshen might want to discuss countermeasures with him, or want him to come up with more powerful evidence.
Sure enough, Gu Chengyu opened the post, and it was written that Gu Chengyu was about to meet, and the place turned out to be in his restaurant, and the time was at the end of the day. Gu Chengyu pondered, the matter has come to this, even Gu Chengyu can't do anything, unless the emperor changes his attitude, this ending will be irreversible.
Not to mention that he has no evidence at all, even if Hu Maoshen is unwilling, he can't dig his own grave, right?
Although he didn't want to go, he was helped by people before, no matter what Hu Maoshen's starting point was, it also helped him indirectly.
Besides, we will work together in officialdom in the future, and I can't say it if I don't see it.
Gu Chengyu suddenly thought of the three children sent by Guo Fu, he was so busy these days that he forgot about it. However, now that the case is gone, the three children are temporarily placed in the market, which is relatively safer, and they are hidden in the city!
It's just that the concubine is twelve years old, but she is not an ignorant baby, and she must know what happened at home. Guo Mansion has been copied now, if the girl makes any unexpected moves, she can't say that she will implicate Gu Chengyu.
"The three children from Guo Mansion, you tell the guards to be stricter, don't let them run out." Gu Chengyu planned to wait for the rumor to pass, and then send the three of them away and send them far away. The old lady of the Guo Mansion also prepared a lot of silver taels and expensive jewelry for the three children before.
However, in order not to arouse suspicion, only the dowry of the female dependents of the family was given, and the others did not dare to move.
Otherwise, when it is confiscated, and no money is found, it will increase in vain.
"By the way, that girl said that she wanted to see her son, and she wanted to thank you in person! Say yes and have something important for you. ”
Mingmo almost forgot about it, it was the guards who took care of the three of them to report to him, and he was so busy today that he almost forgot about it, Mingmo patted his head.
Gu Chengyu was a little strange, what did the girl want to see him do? Do you still think he has the ability to save them? As for the important things, there was no use for him anymore. However, on second thought, it would be okay for him to go and see.
"You tell her that I'll be later, maybe not until the end of the day." It's almost curfew, and it's so late that it won't attract attention. He has light skills, and it is easy to avoid the patrolling soldiers.
It should be enough to talk to Hu Maoshen for an hour, but in fact, it won't take so long at all, because there is no room for turning around in this matter.
As soon as Youshi arrived, Gu Chengyu arrived at Juxiang Building, and Gu Wanqian had already gotten the news and came out of the restaurant.
"Uncle! That old man Hu has already come. Gu Wanqian has been helping out in the restaurant recently, Gu Chengyu feels that he can find something to do for him, the restaurant has a cattle shopkeeper, and there is no need for another shopkeeper.
"Hmmm! You come to my house tomorrow, I want to do some other business recently, I need to find a workshop, you buy me some people, this business is all in charge of you. ”
Gu Chengyu entered the restaurant, ignored the noisy lobby, and went directly to the private room on the second floor.
When Gu Wanqian heard this, her face suddenly became a little more happy. He has been helping out in the restaurant for the past two years, sometimes taking care of Yipinzhai's account books. It's almost the same thing that he has learned, but his uncle has so much to do for a living, and he gradually feels that he has nothing to do.
His grandmother dragged someone to write a letter, saying that he was not young and that it was time to marry a daughter-in-law. However, he refused, he felt that he was only sixteen years old, which was not too old, and he had saved almost three hundred taels of silver for his uncle in the past few years. After waiting for another year, he will be able to buy a small house in Nancheng, and he will have his own nest.
Now that my uncle has given him another errand, as long as he does a good job, he will have more silver and monthly money, after all, he is also in charge. When he bought a house, he brought his milk to the capital and lived with him.
Gu Chengyu is not very old now, and he hasn't thought about life events. Even if it was a letter from home, it didn't mention it, so Gu Chengyu naturally couldn't have thought of it. He never thought that the people around him were old enough to marry and have children.
Therefore, he didn't expect Gu Wanqian's life events at all. After all, in his heart, sixteen years old is still young!
Seeing that the elegant room was about to arrive, Gu Wanqian, who was leading the way in front, hurriedly restrained his emotions, "Uncle! Then Master Hu is inside! ”
Gu Chengyu nodded, opened the door of the private room and walked straight in.
"Gu Gongzi!"
As soon as Gu Chengyu saw someone, Hu Maoshen called him. So he saluted Hu Maoshen, "Lord Hu! ”
"I made an appointment to meet Gu Gongzi today, Gu Gongzi must have also known the official's intention." Hu Maoshen waited for Gu Chengyu to sit down, and then cut straight to the point.
Of course, Gu Chengyu knew that Hu Mao saw his intentions, but he smiled and did not speak. Mingmo stepped forward to pour tea for Gu Chengyu with a smile, and added a bowl to Hu Maoshen.
Hu Maoshen frowned, the last time Gu Chengyu was in a hurry, he didn't have such an attitude today. Now that the anxious person has become him, the taste is not so wonderful.
"Lord Hu, the last time is over, I don't know what Lord Hu is looking for?" Gu Chengyu pretended to be confused, he was not ready to meddle in this matter anymore. The most important thing for him now is to prepare for the palace examination, and other court matters, as long as they do not endanger his interests, he only needs to know.
