Chapter 231: Cleaning (Three Watches)
"Young master, it's not early, you can rest early."
As soon as Yuan Ning entered the study, he saw Gu Lingjin looking at Mo Xiao's portrait, to be honest, if it weren't for knowing that Mo Xiao didn't have anything, Yuan Ning himself would have believed that Gu Lingjin was missing Mo Xiao. But looking at Gu Lingjin's appearance now, he was a little uncomfortable.
"You know what? I've never regretted the decisions I've made. However, at that moment, I suddenly regretted it. If I didn't have to carry so many things, maybe Mo'er wouldn't be in danger. Or, if I had pushed her away, would she not have been like this, maybe she would have had a good time. ”
"Young Master!"
Yuan Ning didn't understand why Gu Lingjin had such a thought.
What Gu Lingjin's plan is next, Yuan Ling is not very clear. But Yuan Ning knew that Gu Lingjin needed to live well, then go to see Mo Xiao, and then live a good life.
"Young master, don't think about these things, Madam will definitely hope that you are safe."
Because he was worried that the partition wall had ears, Yuan Ling didn't dare to say too much.
"Today, the emperor invited me to dinner and said that he would marry me. You say, if Mo'er wants to know, will she be angry? Gu Lingjin's hand stroked Mo Xiao's hair in the painting and said. If the painting had a spirit, maybe it would come out of the painting and beat me up. ”
"Young Master, you better rest early." Yuan Ning listened to Gu Lingjin say this, and knew that Gu Lingjin really came back with a tail. "I specially called the kitchen to prepare a soothing soup for you."
"Got it."
Gu Lingjin drank the soup and lay down.
The people who came back with Gu Lingjin saw that there was nothing left, so they casually found a tree and lay down. This lay down, and when he woke up, it was already early the next morning, and he was trying to find out where Gu Lingjin was, when he found that the other party was looking at him under the tree.
"Gao Gongzi has been following me for so long, come down and eat something."
The person who came officially once climbed over the wall of Gaocang Ridge.
"I thought I was hiding it well, but I didn't think you would find out."
Gao Cangling thought that he had been discovered. Neither do they hide and tuck, nor do they leave by the way. followed Gu Lingjin generously and prepared to have breakfast together.
"Why do you think I won't find you?" Gu Lingjin poured a cup of tea for Gao Cangling. "Perhaps, what I should ask first is, why did Gao Gongzi follow me? Is there something going on? ”
Gao Cangling looked at Gu Lingjin, this person really asked knowingly.
"General Gu, what do you think I am looking for you? Or is it almost what it is? ”
It was the first time Gu Lingjin had seen such a thick-skinned person, or the second, the first one was Mo Xiao.
"I don't know, so I'll ask you what's going on."
Gu Lingjin didn't answer at all, anyway, there are only a few things that Gao Cangling wants to do for himself, if this person says it directly, he may still give a little face, if he doesn't say anything, just wait for himself to give it, then it is really a fool's dream.
"General Gu doesn't say secret words, I naturally came to you because of recent events."
The Gao family is also among the families, although the emperor did not take the Gao family this time, but it is certain that there will be such good luck next time.
Yes, it was the emperor who took the family under the knife. The father and son of the Gao family are very rational at this point, they can be sure that this matter is only made by the emperor, even if Gu Lingjin is powerful, it is impossible to cover the sky with one hand, so the person who gives Gu Lingjin such great power is the emperor, in other words, this matter was instructed by the emperor, in order to ensure the peace of the family, he can only come to Gu Lingjin.
"What's recent? If you have anything to do recently, please let me know. Because I don't have time to inquire at all. ”
Everyone in the capital knew that Gu Lingjin's wife had passed away, and his whole person had first erupted and then fallen silent. Therefore, whether Gu Lingjin really didn't know what was going on, Gao Cangling was skeptical.
"Our Gao family is naturally loyal to the court and the emperor, so I hope that General Gu will say a few good words in front of the emperor, and as for our Gao family, we will definitely manage our own behavior."
After Gu Lingjin listened to Gao Cangling's words, he was quite surprised. This is the first person who can guess the emperor's thoughts, not Han Mingzhuo, that person already knows what Lie Jinghao's plan is.
"I don't really understand what you mean, Gongzi Gao. If you have anything to say, it's better to talk to the emperor, but there is a sentence that makes a lot of sense, and it is a very important thing to restrain the behavior of your family. ”
Gu Lingjin said everything else, but he pointed out the center.
"Thank you."
Gao Cangling didn't have to ask Gu Lingjin to help with anything, he just felt that it would be good to get some tips on some things, and Gu Lingjin really said something.
"I didn't say anything, and you don't need to thank me. How did you get here, please leave after you have eaten. I don't want any other rumors to come up, so it's a nuisance for me. ”
Gu Lingjin was still cold.
"Don't worry, I'll definitely leave."
"Young Master."
Yuan Ling brought a bowl of white porridge to Gu Lingjin.
"You didn't eat well yesterday, so drink some white porridge this morning."
Gu Lingjin looked at the standard configuration of this breakfast, it was really the same as when Mo Xiao was there, and when he drank a sip of white porridge, the taste was still the same, but he was no longer by his side.
"I really don't want to slap the horse, your white porridge is so delicious?"
Gao Cangling originally thought that Gu Lingjin's breakfast was really simple, but after eating it in his mouth, he didn't think like this, the taste was really good, this texture or something, it didn't look like a bowl of white porridge at all.
"If it's delicious, eat more."
After Gu Lingjin finished speaking, he drank porridge quietly.
When I finished eating, I went to do my own thing.
After Gao Cangling drank the porridge, he found that the original lemon was still in place, and it seemed that he had no other actions because of himself.
"Little follower, how is this porridge made, and why does it taste so good?"
Gao Cangling thought about it for a while, and decided to inquire about how this porridge was made.
"Actually, the recipe for this white porridge is very simple, as long as you change the concept." As for how white porridge is cooked, Yuan Lemon also knows a little. "Whatever soup you like, just use it to cook porridge."
"This porridge can be played like this, who has such a good idea."
This is the first time I've heard of cooking porridge like this, and the person who thinks of such a method is really smart.
"It's my wife."
After Yuan Ning answered, the expression on Gao Cangling's face was slightly embarrassed. But it's only a matter of a while, and Gao Cangling will not be embarrassed immediately, but will be a little lucky, fortunately he didn't ask in front of Gu Lingjin before, otherwise he might be thrown out by Gu Lingjin.
"Okay, the meal has been eaten, and Young Master Ben is gone."
"You walk slowly."
Yuan Ning watched the people leave, so he went to Gu Lingjin to recover his life.
"People are gone?"
Gu Lingjin watched Yuan Ling come in, and it was estimated that Gao Cangling had left. This person is also annoyed, but fortunately, he is still informed and knows that he is leaving.
"Young Master, does this person need attention?"
"No need. This person is just here to inquire about the news, there is no need to pay attention to anything, anyway, he will not be our enemy, and I am too lazy to deal with the people of the Gao family. "Gu Lingjin hasn't paid much attention to anything since he experienced Mo Xiao's affairs, as long as he can complete the things that Lie Jinghao explained." By the way, the capital has been quiet for a while recently, you take a good look, if anyone is not afraid of death at this time, they will beat me hard. ”
“… Be. ”
Yuan Ning didn't understand what Gu Lingjin meant at all, but soon Yuan Ning knew what was going on.
The children of this family have become extinct in the capital, because Lie Jinghao's previous cleaning was really comprehensive, and those gentlemen have really all disappeared, according to reason, the inside of this capital should be 'clean', but at this time, someone actually invited Gu Lingjin to drink flower wine.
Yuan Ling really wanted to know what was going on in the heads of these people. Do you think that Mo Xiao has passed away, so Gu Lingjin is 'free'? There are also many people who invite Gu Lingjin to eat at home, and the intention is really obvious, and it can't be more obvious.
Originally, Gu Lingjin had Mo Xiao by his side, although Mo Xiao was not from a good background. But after all, Gu Lingjin used his own credit to exchange Mo Xiao for the title, and he rose little by little, until he reached the title of princess. Therefore, no one will think about marrying their daughter.
After all, people love their wives in the first place, even if they are forced to marry the side room, they will only have a grudge at that time.
It's different now, Gu Lingjin no longer has a wife, even if he is a step-room at that time, he can be regarded as a lady in the main house. Everyone's minds began to liven up, one by one they invited Gu Lingjin to eat at home, or invited Gu Lingjin to eat out, anyway, they wanted to make friends with Gu Lingjin.
Gu Lingjin didn't take this very seriously, none of those who invited Gu Lingjin to go, and the only one who often came to him with a cheeky face was Gao Cangling.
"It's not a good habit for Lord Xiao Gao to climb over the wall all the time." Gu Lingjin really didn't understand how this person had targeted himself and kept coming over to entangle. "Besides, it's not that your family can't afford to eat, it's a bit rude to come to my house to eat all the time."
"General Gu, I don't think it's really lonely for you to eat alone, that's why I came to accompany you to eat."
Since Gao Cangling got a reminder from Gu Lingjin last time, he has begun to restrain the people in his family, and now it is quite effective. The emperor also has more and more trust in the Gao family. Gao Cangling knew that it was all because of Gu Lingjin's help, so he kept coming to visit.
"I think it's good that I eat by myself, and I don't need to eat with you at all."
Gu Lingjin said so, but he still asked his subordinates to prepare the dishes and chopsticks of Gao Cangling, and it happened that he also needed to know some news from Gao Cangling.
"It seems that Lord Xiao Gao has been very idle recently, I think I need to suggest to the emperor, it is always good to give you more tasks and more experience, you say yes."
Gao Cangling listened to Gu Lingjin's words, and really felt from the bottom of his heart that Gu Lingjin was really a sinister person. If his father heard this, he would probably thank Gu Lingjin, after all, Gu Lingjin's words Lie Jinghao still took it to heart, and when the time came, he would not have such a leisurely time as he has now.
"Doesn't the general like Cangling coming to eat with you? After all, I can tell you anything you want to know. ”
It's just mutual benefit, Gao Cangling believes that Gu Lingjin will definitely have some news that he wants to know.
"You're right, but it's a pity, I also have some doubts about the channels and credibility of these messages, so Lord Xiaogao, you should give up your plan to exchange messages with me."
Gu Lingjin wanted to know something, and he had his own tricks to report. I mainly want to see Gao Cangling's attitude, look at Gao Cangling's appearance, in the recent period, there should be no major events, it seems that Lie Jinghao may have to start rectifying various state cities.
Thinking of this, Gu Lingjin suddenly felt that Gao Cangling might be a good choice.
"Gu Lingjin, what is your expression, what have you thought of?"
Gao Cangling looked at Gu Lingjin's expression, and he didn't care about any etiquette, he just felt that Gu Lingjin might be calculating something.
"Lord Xiao Gao, it's really rude for you to do this."
Gu Lingjin smiled, he didn't feel that there was anything wrong with what he thought before, Gao Cangling was also time to go out and practice, so that Lie Jinghao could continue to develop his power and replace some old people. In this way, you can feel at ease when you leave.
"General Gu, what are you calculating in your heart?"
Gao Cangling looked at this look with an unusually familiar look, Gu Lingjin had shown such an expression before, and then he was appointed by the emperor to an official position, fortunately, he used his ingenuity to be busy. Now, Gu Lingjin showed such an expression again, which made Gao Cangling very scared.
"You'll know."
Gu Lingjin entered the palace that night.
In the morning, when the Gao family father and son were eating, they heard the news, and Gao Cangling's rice bowl slipped out of his hands.
"What do you look like?"
Gao Heng watched Gao Cangling's face change suddenly, thinking that something might have happened.
"Did you do something I don't know?"
"It's nothing, it's just that I think it might be Gu Lingjin who is going to do something."
Gao Cangling recalled carefully, he really didn't have anything to forget, what did Gu Lingjin want to do?
"What does Gu Lingjin want to do, what are you nervous about?" Gao Heng knew at a glance that it must have been his son who had done something. "You'd better tell me the truth, what the hell you've done."
Gao Cangling was actually very puzzled by this, because he really didn't do anything, and he didn't know why Gu Lingjin's face changed at that time, and he showed a strange smile.
Gao Heng looked at Gao Cangling and was puzzled about what he had done, he really wanted to exchange his son with Gu Zhang. Obviously a child of the same age, the education he has received since childhood is basically the same, why has other people's sons risen to the same level as themselves, or even better than themselves, while their own sons are still dangling on the side.
"You, you. You're really asking me what to say. If this Gu Lingjin really wants to do something to you, I don't know how you died. ”
After listening to Gao Heng's words, Gao Cangling nodded in agreement.
If this Gu Lingjin really wanted to do something to himself, he might not know how he really died, and he didn't know how this person's brain grew, and he had so many hearts and eyes, even if he added a few people, he wouldn't be able to play with one Gu Lingjin.
Soon, after the early dynasty, Gao Cangling was ordered to supervise the imperial history, inspect the various state cities of Yanyang, and solve the shortcomings of all the state cities.
"Gu Lingjin, you are really amazing."
Gao Cangling now finally understood what Gu Lingjin wanted to do by himself, but he still had to come to the door to thank Gu Lingjin for giving him this opportunity.
"Lord Xiao Gao is going to do a good job."
After Gu Lingjin sent Gao Cangling away, he thought of the previous conversation with Lie Jinghao. This time, the two of them have arranged their future plans, and it depends on whether this Gaocangling can successfully complete the task assigned by Lie Jinghao.
Last night, the Imperial Study.
"I found that you believe in this Gao Cangling very much."
Lie Jinghao is a little curious, Gu Lingjin has been recommending this Gaocang Ridge to himself recently, there should be some reason.
"I don't really believe in this Gao Cangling, it's just that this person has been harassing me recently and affecting my eating. So I think we should find something for him to do. ”
Gu Lingjin was still very direct when he spoke.
It's also because Gu Lingjin didn't say it, and Lie Jinghao also knew it. There are also Lie Jinghao's spies in his own house, so since this is the case, it is better to tell the truth.
"Moreover, this Gao Cangling was able to steal from the tasks you assigned before, which shows that this person is capable, so let such a person go out to exercise, and when you come back, you can give a position that you feel can help you share your worries."
Lie Jinghao sighed, this Gu Lingjin has really been unloading the burden on his body, I believe that when the real war between the two countries starts, Gu Lingjin may be able to retreat with his whole body. This is obviously what I wanted, why is my heart so unhappy? This Gu Lingjin can't wait to leave?
"Before, Yuan Shaoqi has been by your side, I thought you would promote him. Aren't you worried that he'll pull you back when the time comes? ”
Lie Jinghao is not talking nonsense, the relationship between Yuan Shaoqi and Gu Lingjin was very good before, but recently Gu Lingjin and Gao Cangling have been very close, which is really puzzling to Lie Jinghao.
"Your Majesty, Yuan Shaoqi and Gao Cangling are two different people, don't look at Gao Cangling as the beloved son of Lord Gao, and Lord Gao is the Minister of Military Aircraft. But in terms of marching and fighting, he is not as good as Yuan Shaoqi. If the two countries go to war, there will be a chance for Yuan Shaoqi to make meritorious contributions. Gao Cangling is suitable for the court, because this person is still relatively sleek. ”
Gu Lingjin explained slightly.
"In this way, you trust Yuan Shaoqi very much?"
Lie Jinghao just wanted to know if Gu Lingjin wanted to take those people for his own use or for something else.
"These two people are loyal to the emperor and can be of great use." Gu Lingjin was not afraid of Lie Jinghao's temptation at all. "Soon you will have your own right-hand man, and you don't have to worry even if Ling Jin is not there."
Lie Jinghao was silent.
Gu Lingjin really planned to do so.
"Moreover, when it is really time to start a war, Yuan Shaoqi can be the commander, and Ling Jin is willing to assist."
This is completely to pave the way for the other party, and I don't want those credits at all. Lie Jinghao sighed, this Gu Lingjin's intention to leave was really becoming more and more obvious, and the poor people in the court still felt that Gu Lingjin had another purpose. Only Lie Jinghao knew that Gu Lingjin was sincere and wanted to leave.
Maybe, if Mo Xiao hadn't left at that time, Gu Lingjin might have fought for Mo Xiao, but now the goal of struggle is gone, and there is no such motivation.
"I have my own plans for these things, and I don't need your advice."
Lie Jinghao said unhappily.
"Yes."
Gu Lingjin knew that Lie Jinghao was unhappy, but he also had to say that he was unhappy.
"Gu Qing, a lot of people have come to ask me for marriage recently, do you really have no idea at all?"
Recently, Gu Lingjin has been so 'popular' Lie Jinghao also knows, and all of this is also instructed by Lie Jinghao. If it weren't for Lie Jinghao's performance, Gu Lingjin would not be so popular. So everyone wants to get in touch with Gu Lingjin. It's a pity that Gu Lingjin doesn't give anyone a chance.
As for Gao Cangling, the Gao family has no suitable daughter, or because they understand Gu Lingjin, they don't use women to pull the relationship, but when Gao Cangling is free, he goes over the wall.
Sure enough, the Gao family is also a step ahead, but Gu Lingjin didn't reject Gao Cangling so much.
If it weren't for knowing that Gu Lingjin only had Mo Xiao in his heart, maybe Lie Jinghao had already begun to suspect that Gu Lingjin liked Gao Cangling, so he would promote Gao Cangling like this. If Gao Cangling knew Lie Jinghao's heart, he probably wouldn't have gone to Gu Lingjin.
"If someone asks the emperor for marriage next time, then let the other party's daughter be married to the adult's opponent." Gu Lingjin 'sincerely' suggested to Lie Jinghao. "I believe that if you come a few more times, no one should bother the emperor with this matter again."
"What should I do, I really don't need you to teach me." Lie Jinghao emphasized again, and he really admired Gu Lingjin, such a bad idea can be come up, it seems that it is really annoying to those people. "Forget it, you can rest and recuperate at home, and when the time comes, you will go out to fight the world for me."
"Minister, obey the order."
