297 rewards
Although the Gu family was some distance away from the princess's mansion, it was nothing to Gu Yue, he walked like the wind, and soon followed the familiar streets and alleys to the gate of his house.
As soon as I looked up, I saw a group of boys, lined up, standing in the snow, grinning at him.
The men of the Gu family all have good looks and are very tall, now not only Gu San and Gu Yue are as tall as they are, but Gu Si has also reached the age when people don't like dogs, Gu Wu is a little older than Wang Jinyan, but he is also a small group, Gu Liu is still holding in the arms of the nurse, and he also stares at him with a pair of big eyes and smiles.
Plus two nephews, isn't it a big bunch of boys?
Gu Yue instructed the subordinates who followed, "What about the gift I brought back?" Did you get it? ”
The attendant laughed, pointed to the front and said, "Gu Ren and Gu Yi went to fetch it, that's not, they have already carried it over." ”
Gu Yue went to Nanzhao this time, and he only brought four people.
After all, his official position is not high, and together with the second prince, the second prince only brought eight people, and when he came to him, he naturally had to reduce it again.
I just didn't expect this trip to be so smooth.
He has always been generous, and he is not short of money in his hands, and the four people he brought with him, in addition to hanging out every day, is to buy local products every day, and then let the caravan help bring them back to the capital. Of course, these children's toys are indispensable, otherwise they don't know how comfortable they are in the house around a brazier.
When a group of children heard that there was a gift, they first stood up and thanked Gu Yue, and then followed the next person to open the gift happily.
Gu San and Gu Si were older after all, so they didn't bother to fight with them anymore, but hugged Gu Yue left and right.
"Daddy and Auntie, grandmother and uncles are waiting!"
When Gu Yue heard this, he nodded, "I've worked hard for them." ”
Although the Gu family is prosperous, the people at the head of each house usually get along well, since they arrived in the capital, relying on Gu Yan, the business is getting better and better, and there are a lot of farm shops.
The newly purchased barren mountain unexpectedly mined gold mines, and after the people of the Ministry of Industry went to the field to investigate, they found that the number of gold mines there was not a small number, although the imperial court had not said anything, but it was only a matter of time.
Of course, the brothers of the older generation of the Gu family also knew very well that if Gu Yue hadn't happened to be able to see the emperor and directly reported the matter, even if the credit was not forcibly taken by others, some of the credit would have been taken away.
There are people in the court who are good officials.
So the brothers are united.
Especially now, Gu Yue is so competitive at a young age, and he took the princess's daughter, and he usually pays three points of respect, but now he immediately adds three points.
is the old lady of the Gu family, who used to be very unreliable, and now she has begun to believe in Buddhism.
Of course, this is the result of the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law's fighting, but I also have to admit that Mrs. Gu is actually a very shrewd and capable person.
Otherwise, he would not have insisted on letting his son marry Mrs. Xiang when he was down.
Facts have proved that Mrs. Gu's vision is very correct, Mrs. Xiang came to the Gu family, not only gave birth to a group of sons, but also had a prosperous fortune, so that Mrs. Gu was promoted to the history of assassination in just a few years, and became a close minister of the Son of Heaven.
If it weren't for Emperor Changsheng discovering Gu Yue's innate divine power and handsome appearance, Cui Shangshu felt that he had potential, where would he specifically recommend Gu Yan to join the ministry, but Gu Yue had natural divine power, and he was recommended by Princess Qingyang's mansion, while Mrs. Xiang was Princess Qingyang's handkerchief, and she was the cousin of King Shenyi.
On the surface, Gu Yan is a pure minister, but anyone with a discerning eye knows that Gu Yan's eldest son's relatives are the matchmaker of Princess Qingyang, otherwise he would not have established himself so quickly.
Mrs. Gu was also a beautiful lady in her early years, her son was angry, and her life was thriving, so naturally she would not trouble finding her daughter-in-law every day.
Not only that, but she also told her sons, "The family is prosperous, and your daughter-in-law can do it, and if you don't live together, you can take charge of your own small family." ”
Even if it is property, it has already found a witness and divided it clearly.
Brothers, settle accounts.
Even if the shares are separated, they are still operated in the hands of the third and fourth children.
Now Gu Yue has made a great contribution again, and on the way to the princess's mansion, he has already explained that the people who followed him came back to report the news.
The family already knew the good news.
At this moment, the whole family was sitting in Mrs. Xiang's main room, talking and laughing, waiting for him to come back.
Gu Yue entered the house, first saluted the elders, and then sat down in the last position.
As soon as he sat down, Fu Dong arrived and brought another holy decree.
This holy decree, in addition to commending Gu Yue for his contributions, also praised the Gu family's dedication of gold mines, and named Gu Yue as a loyal and righteous uncle.
Now, the faces of other people are not so good-looking.
Although the Gu family donated the gold mine, this gold mine has nothing to do with Gu Yue.
It's Gu Yan, I haven't asked about these things before, the barren mountain was bought by Gu Yue's uncles, and it wasn't Gu Yan who found the mine, but the title fell on Gu Yue's head.
At this moment, even the old lady frowned.
What does the emperor want to do?
Where is this rewarding the Gu family, it is almost the same as putting Gu Yue on the fire to roast.
Fu Dong also smiled: "Your Majesty said, the county lord of Langya is his favorite niece, the general's position is too low, and the county lord is not a good match, so he has a knighthood, even if he gives you a congratulatory gift for marrying the county lord." ”
Gu Yue's contributions to Nanzhao and Bian Guanli are all real, and the Gu family's dedication to gold mines is also a great achievement, how can Fu Dong say this, it seems that the princess's mansion dislikes the Gu family's family is too low, and asks Gu Yue for an official.
The real credit has become relying on the Yue family to enter the office.
The Gu family, who was originally happy, looked a little bad at this time.
When there is no conflict of interest, everyone naturally respects Gu Yan's branch, but once the credit that originally belonged to them is "occupied" by Gu Yue, everyone will have a bad face.
Fortunately, Gu Yan's official prestige is flourishing, Gu Yue is a good person, and the Gu family also sees it, so they just endure it and don't get angry.
Gu Yue didn't accept the holy decree, only knelt down and said: "The discovery of the gold mine is the credit of the entire Gu family, if you ask for a reward for merit, it should also be rewarded to the uncles of the last general, they are the real heroes, as for the last general, the emperor has already rewarded the holy decree of marriage, and the last general has nothing else to ask for." The county lord is willing to marry the last general, not because of the power of the last general, but because the last general has a heart that wants to grow old with her, and she sees the sincerity of the last general, not anything else. The last general thanked the emperor for his will, but this loyal and righteous uncle, the last general could not accept it no matter what. ”
Generally speaking, once the decree of the reward is announced at home, it is the emperor's affirmation of you, and there is no need to shirk it.
But Gu Yue didn't accept it, Fu Dong only brought the holy decree back, and learned Gu Yue's words to Emperor Changsheng.
"This kid is a calm one." The emperor rarely praised Gu Yue, but he didn't get angry.
If this kid doesn't insist on marrying Wang Linzhi, it would be great.
