"I'm thinking, what do you think these corrupt officials think?"

"Even my grandfather said, three years of prefect, 100,000 silver, this prefect is such an official position that can make oil and water, is it not good to be honest, why do you have to be corrupt."

Gu Wanchao looked at the sky and said what she was thinking.

"Greed is not enough to swallow elephants, the so-called Zhumen wine and meat stink, and there are frozen bones on the road, that's it, if these corrupt officials and corrupt officials can not be greedy, they are not called corrupt officials."

Li Yin came out this time, and he also learned a lot from Gu Traitor, the intrigue in this officialdom is not something that can be explained clearly in a few words.

"Perhaps, it seems that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has also grown a lot during this trip to Jiangling."

Gu Wanchao turned his head to look at the person sitting beside him, and said something coldly that made Li Yin cry and laugh.

Li Yin chuckled, "Yes, I've grown a lot." ”

The two were talking and laughing on the roof, and Xiao Yu'an, who came out to relax, happened to encounter this scene, he watched the scene of the two talking and laughing under the starry sky, and turned around and returned to the bedroom without saying a word.

Everything in Jiangling City had been taken care of, and the four of them finally set foot on their way back to Beijing, with the smugglers of salt in the prisoner cart behind them.

After arriving in the capital, Gu traitors directly handed over those smuggling salt dealers to Dali Temple for processing, and the group went to the palace to face the saints.

"Your Majesty, all the gold, silver and illicit salt seized in this search and arrest have been confiscated into the state treasury, and the smuggler salt dealers have all been handed over to Dali Temple for disposal."

In the imperial study, Gu Traitor informed the emperor of the harvest of this trip to Jiangling one by one.

"Very well done, this trip to Jiangling, you and others have also made great contributions to the imperial court, and they are all rewarded."

The emperor looked at the amount of gold and silver confiscated presented by Gu Traitor's ministers, and he was overjoyed, and immediately rewarded the four of them heavily.

When the emperor learned that it was Gu Wanchao who asked for the testimony from the salt seller this time, he praised Gu Wanchao emphatically, and immediately asked Gu Wanchao what reward he wanted alone.

Gu Wanchao thought for a long time, and exchanged the reward for the emperor to help her fulfill a wish, but she couldn't think of the specific wish now, and she would tell the emperor when she thought of it.

This emperor originally liked Gu Wanchao, and Gu Wanchao made meritorious contributions, so he agreed.

Afterwards, the four of them returned to their lodgings with the reward given by the emperor.

Gu Wanchao has been away for a month, and the Liu family misses her very much, especially after hearing the news of Gu Wanchao's injury, the Liu family specially boiled supplements for her and waited for her to come back.

"Mother."

Gu Wanchao stepped into the bedroom door and saw the Liu family waiting for him inside, and rushed to the Liu family.

Liu reached out to catch her and touched her head dotingly.

"You followed your grandfather without saying a word, and you don't know how to tell your mother, do you know that your mother is worried about you?"

Liu hugged Gu Wanchao tightly, telling his worries and thoughts about her.

Gu Wanchao wanted to go to Jiangling together at that time, and she was traveling secretly, so she hid it from the Liu family from beginning to end, and when she suddenly heard the Liu family say that she was worried about herself, she realized how inappropriate she was doing.

"I'm sorry, mother, I won't do this next time." She came out of Liu's arms, looked up at Liu, and sincerely promised Liu.

"Mother, I heard that you were still injured in Gangneung this time? Let my mother see it. Liu Shi took Gu Wanchao's hand and made a gesture to check her wound.

Gu Wanchao raised his hand obediently and lifted the sleeves of his shirt, revealing the knife wound on his arm.

"This knife is so long, it must have hurt at the time." The Liu family was distressed and blew it for Gu Wanchao.

"It doesn't hurt, mother, really."

No matter how painful it is, she has already suffered it, this is just a little skin trauma, and for her, it really doesn't hurt.

"Come, my mother has boiled soup for you, tonify your body, drink it while it's hot."

Listening to the words coming out of the mouth of his daughter, who was still a child, Liu Shi felt even more distressed in his heart, and held back his tears and handed the soup to Gu Wanchao on the side, telling her to drink it while it was hot.

Gu Wanchao took the bowl of soup and drank it in front of Liu's face.

The Liu family misses and worries about Gu Wanchao these days, this Gu Wanchao finally came back, Liu said that he would accompany her, and Gu Wanchao was also happy to have her by his side.

The mother and daughter were lying on the bed, and Gu Wanchao told the interesting things they encountered along the way to Jiangling, which made the Liu family happy.

Early the next morning, the Liu family left Gu Wanchao's bedroom early.

Gu Wanchao was really tired on the way, and when she woke up, it was already three poles in the sun.

"Miss, get up and have breakfast when you wake up."

Xia He happened to come in with food, and when she saw Gu Wanchao sitting on the edge of the bed, she put the food in her hand on the table, and then walked to Gu Wanchao and waited for her to wash.

"Miss, you have been to Jiangling for more than a month this time, look at it, without the slave and the maid and Chunchun Tao to accompany you, you have lost weight."

Xia He looked at Gu Wanchao in the mirror and said distressedly.

"What's the matter, you just haven't seen Miss me for a month, forget what Miss I was like a month ago." Gu Wan looked at her face left and right, and teased Xia He.

"Not really." After Xia He helped Gu Wanchao comb his hair, he walked to the table to arrange food.

Gu Wanchao went to Huanyan Pavilion after breakfast, she didn't come to the shop this month, and when she saw the account book, she was surprised.

"So much?"

Gu Wanchao looked at Wei Yuan excitedly, and couldn't believe the profit figures above.

"Isn't that much, what, the owner thinks it's too much? Why don't you give me a little bit? ”

Wei Yuan looked at Gu Wanchao, who couldn't believe it after making money, and couldn't help but quip.

"Don't worry, you work hard, and your benefits will be indispensable in the future." After getting Wei Yuan's accurate answer, this Gu Wanchao didn't mention how happy he was, handed the account book to Wei Yuan with a smile, and walked out of the shop satisfied.

Wei Yuan looked at Gu Wanchao's excited appearance and shook his head with a smile.

This person is in good spirits on happy occasions, Gu Wanchao has just been rewarded in the palace, and now Huanyan Pavilion has made a lot of money, and the money in her hands adds up, she is already a small rich businessman.

"Let's go, let's go to Zhang's Mansion and see how Zhang Ziyang carved Miss and my porcelain vase."

Gu Wanchao got into the carriage with his feet up, thinking about Zhang Ziyang's cash cow, so he directly ordered the coachman to go to Zhang's mansion.

The little servants in Zhang's Mansion also recognized Gu Wanchao, and when they saw her coming, they directly let her in.

Gu Wanchao went straight to Zhang Ziyang, and when he arrived at Zhang Ziyang's residence, he was sitting in the courtyard carving a porcelain vase.

"Look. Look at our Zhang Gongzi's skillful hands, the pattern on this porcelain vase is carved vividly. Gu Wanchao picked up a porcelain vase and looked at it, joking with Zhang Ziyang in his mouth.
