Kang Yi didn't hide this question, but said: "It's for the silver." ”

What is the most important thing to recruit talent?

Naturally, it is silver.

Life in the world is nothing more than a few things.

Money, fame, power.

Once these three things are in place, something will come.

Du Zhong wanted to secretly recruit manpower and prepare his own military force, so he naturally needed a large sum of silver.

However, Du Zhong's own things were monitored by the first emperor, so he could only use the methods on the side, not only silver, but also grain.

"You mean to say that he was in the Wei Palace to solicit money for Du Zhong." Wen Ling understood, or rather, it wasn't for him to recruit Du Zhong, as a eunuch, it would be impossible to sit on the throne, but if he had silver, then Du Zhong would definitely need him, so he couldn't say whether it was Du Zhong or not, in the end, who didn't like silver.

Wen Ling remembered that Gu Xun once told her that after breaking through the Wei Palace in the past, because she was in a hurry to integrate the Wei land, she just handed over the affairs of the Wei Palace to her ministers. But after the end of the war, clean up the remnants of the Wei Palace, but said that because Emperor Wei Xian was too extravagant, the palace has already been consumed, the Wei Palace looks big, but in fact there are few things in it, think about it carefully, Emperor Wei Xian is mediocre, will not govern, but extremely extravagant, as a trusted eunuch, but if there is some cleverness, how much oil and water can be fished from Emperor Wei Xian?

Kang Yi didn't answer, but closed his eyes and said.

"The sin slaves who should be vomited have been spit out, the emperor wants to kill or widow, but he can give the sin slaves a good time."

Because the leg was punished, there was blood under the crack, and it looked hideous, but what really hurt was the hand hanging on both sides and looking fine. Previously, the criminal officer had slowly hit Kang Yi's arm bone with a small hammer, and now it looked intact, but after a while, it would be bruised and swollen, and it was difficult for Kang Yi to hold on for so long at his age.

But it's estimated that it's almost the same, and if you ask again, it may be really urgent.

What Kang Yi said was only related to Du Zhong, and he didn't say much about his own affairs, but this is also normal, just because he knew that Du Zhong conspired with Zhang Ji but didn't tell him was already a capital crime.

Gu Xun turned around, "I want you to make the truth public tomorrow in the main hall." ”

Tomorrow, he will take off his mask in public, and the identity of the emperor's brother will also be completely dead, and he will let everyone know the truth.

At this point, Kang Yi was escorted back to prison from the Criminal Department.

Gu Xun didn't put on the mask anymore, the palace maid and eunuch saw Gu Xun and hurriedly lowered her head and didn't dare to look more, Wen Ling ordered that most of the eunuchs in the harem were arrested, and for a while, no one dared to say anything even if something happened. In the evening, Gu Xun went back to Yongning Palace to accompany Wen Ling, Xianqin and Yi Yu were waiting to freshen up, Yi Yu looked at Wen Ling and said, "Princess, it's good now, the emperor will come to Yongning Palace again in the future, so there is no need to hide it." ”

Wen Ling nodded, "This is indeed a good thing in time, although it is more interesting to hide with Du Zhong, but it is also a little strange to always be like this." ”

"Tomorrow, the emperor will announce the identity of the world, and the princess should consider the issue of heirs next." Xianqin straightened Wen Ling's hair, "If it were in the Qi Kingdom, at such an age, the princess would already be a child's mother, and the princess would have no relatives when she came to this Jin Kingdom." If she can have a child, the princess can be regarded as having a relative. ”

Wen Ling's little face suddenly wrinkled into a ball, and he held his cheeks and said, "It is said that a woman giving birth to a child is a ghost gate, and it hurts to give birth to a child, I always feel that it can be slowed down." ”

That's good, she's still a child herself, what kind of child!

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard footsteps behind him, and he just stepped into the threshold.

Several people turned their heads, and Yi Yu and the strings hurriedly knelt down, "Your Majesty." ”

With a bang, I saw Wen Ling kick down the small bench behind him and look at Gu Xun nervously.

She didn't say no......

However, Bai Yue's pregnancy is hard and sinful, and now that the month is older, it is estimated that she will give birth after the year, and it looks very tired.

Gu Xun looked at Wen Ling standing there with his hands behind his back, his little face was a little cramped, and he couldn't help but purse his lips and smile.

is the mother of a country, and she looks dignified and stable on the outside, but once she is gone, she still can't suppress her temperament.

Yi Yu and the strings hurriedly retreated and closed the door.

Wen Ling walked to Gu Xun's side with a small face, "That...... I didn't say I wouldn't give birth......"

Gu Xun was stunned, looked down at Wen Ling, and said in a low voice, "Chang'an, if you are afraid, we can also ignore this matter for the time being." ”

Wen Ling blinked, "Hmm......"

"Tomorrow I will announce the truth in public, and at that time I will also inform everyone that Bai Yue has not been set up as a concubine because, Bai Yue's belly is the flesh and blood of the royal brother, if Bai Yue gives birth to a prince, I will make her the crown prince, and whether Bai Yue stays in the palace, if she is willing, she can, if she doesn't want to, I don't force it, if you want to stay in the palace, I will give the royal brother the title of king, and make her the princess of the imperial brother." Gu Xun paused, "This is what we said early in the morning. ”

Wen Ling paused, "So you want to wait for Bai Yue to give birth to a child to see if it is a prince." ”

They had already talked about it.

"It's mainly ......" Gu Xun frowned and looked at Wen Ling very seriously, "Chang'an, have you ever taken a child?" ”

Asking this question, Wen Ling's eyes widened, "Self-no!" ”

She is the youngest in the palace, and she is also the youngest in the country, and almost all the people she has met and known since she was a child are her youngest.

Moreover, in the past, other wives also brought them and still came to worship the queen mother, and there were also children with them.

To be honest, the child looks small and fragile, as if he pinches it lightly or accidentally falls to the ground, and it is over.

Gu Xun hesitated for a moment and said, "I don't have either." ”

Wen Ling thought he was worried about something, and thought for a while, "It's okay, I have a companion eunuch in my marriage, and Aunt Xianqin also watched me grow up, she must have ......"

"It's not...... I mean...... I'm not ready to be a father......" Gu Xun said softly.

His father, the emperor, has never looked at him since his mother's death.

No matter what he does, in the eyes of his father, the imperial brother is the best.

In the past six months, he has slept with Wen Ling for various reasons, but he has not shared the same room, in addition to the problem of the situation, he also feels that he is not ready, and maybe there have been times when he is shaken, but calm down and reason, if Wen Ling gives birth to a child, how will he teach the child. Not to mention that the royal brother's child will be born soon, if it is the prince, he will definitely fulfill his promise to pass the throne to the royal brother's child, if Wen Ling also gives birth to a child, the age difference between the two is too close, and if he grows up in the future, if he has the heart to fight, so what?

Unconsciously, although some problems have not yet occurred, they have to be worried.

Just hearing Wen Ling say that, Gu Xun couldn't help laughing, it turned out that Chang'an, who was not afraid of heaven and earth, also had times when he was afraid. But maybe they can be honest with each other, and they won't let Wen Ling misunderstand.

After Gu Xun explained it clearly to Wen Ling, Wen Ling also understood.

"It doesn't matter, anyway, when my mother gave birth to my imperial brother, she was born very late." Wen Ling snapped his fingers and calculated, "My mother is my imperial brother who was born at twenty-four, so we still have six years!" ”

When Wen Ling said this, he crooked the corners of his eyes and smiled very freely.

To be honest, the rules of this Jin Palace are not as many as the rules of the Qi Kingdom.

So she is alone in this Jin Palace, and she is still at ease.

After speaking, the two looked at each other, Wen Ling could clearly see the scratched red marks on Gu Xun's face, and paused, "You let Kang Yi tell the truth in public in the main hall tomorrow, aren't you afraid of accidents?" Eucommia is cunning, everything is prepared for emergencies. ”

The most important consideration now is not the issue of children, but the fact that Gu Xun's identity will be announced tomorrow to correct Gu Xun's name.

"Chang'an, what do you think will happen?" Gu Xun frowned.

Wen Ling shook his head, "I don't know, but Du Zhong has escaped and there has been no movement until now, I always feel that he will still have a backstroke." ”

This is probably the aftermath.

"Now Eucommia is in the dark and we are in the light, no matter what happens, we have to face it, don't we?" Gu Xun understood Wen Ling, Wen Ling was more thoughtful than him, "General Huo has already led people to clean up those Gu people in secret, what you encountered outside the city today, I will also send someone out to investigate, if there is a result, I will tell you." ”

Wen Ling could only nod.

On the second day, Gu Xun went to court with a broken human skin mask, except for a few confidants and ministers who knew about it, and the civil and military officials were very shocked when they watched Gu Xun take off the human skin mask in public, revealing his original face.

When Gu Xun told everything about it, the expressions of the hundred officials were more and more shocked.

"The imperial brother sacrificed his life to save me, and I pretended to be the imperial brother to return to the palace, just to find out who was behind it." Gu Xun looked at the people below, "A lot of things have happened in the court these days, and you must be able to see why I am like this." Also yesterday, I finally learned the truth from Kang Yi's mouth, and someone came to bring Kang Yi up. ”

Speaking of this, everyone watched Kang Yi being carried up, and they didn't dare to come out.

Kang Yi has always been a trusted person around the emperor, and so has Du Zhong.

To be honest, if it weren't for Du Zhong's absconding this time, Gu Xun took out the mountain order hidden in Du Zhong's mansion, and everyone couldn't believe that Du Zhong would have such an identity.

Everything went extremely smoothly, Kang Yi looked at everyone, and Gu Xun also waited quietly.

"Say."

Kang Yi gasped twice, and when he looked up at Gu Xun, he was looking at one side, gritted his teeth and said, "His Royal Highness is so ruthless, in order to seize the throne, he killed His Royal Highness, and now he wants the old slave to make this false testimony, and he is even more tortured." The old slave was loyal to the first emperor, and had never done anything sorry for the first emperor, and the second highness knew that it was unjustifiable for him to pretend to be his highness to ascend the throne, and now he wanted to use such a reason to clear himself and punish the guilty ministers! Heaven is going to die, I am a great jin! ”

After speaking, Kang Yi actually took a breath and bit off the root of his tongue.

The civil and military officials were suddenly panicked, and Gu Xun looked at Kang Yi coldly.

Kang Yi vomited blood and fell to the ground, his chest shaking in pain, but his eyes looked at Gu Xun with mockery.
