When they came out of Xianyang Prison, several people had their own thoughts, and no one spoke.

Just said hello to each other, and then they all turned and left.

Gu Siyuan rode back to Gu's mansion and saw his father Gu Zongmin standing in the courtyard taking care of his pigeons.

He immediately walked over, stood respectfully behind Gu Zongmin, and bowed, "I've seen my father." ”

"The child just came back from Xianyang Prison, and followed Master Zhang to see Ran Fang, as well as Fusu Gongzi."

Hearing this, Gu Zongmin put down the bird food in his hand and asked his subordinates to take away all the bird food.

He turned his head and looked at Gu Siyuan, the look in his eyes made people unable to see joy and anger.

"How?"

Speaking of Ran Fang, Gu Siyuan's attitude was a little resentful.

He said in a very contemptuous tone: "According to Erchen's opinion, that Ran Fang is just an ordinary person, and I don't know why His Majesty values him so much?" ”

"Arrogant in talking and doing things, and extremely brazen!"

Hearing this, Gu Zongmin looked at him with some surprise, but he heard that some people in the court said that this Ran Fang was a capable person and was highly valued by His Majesty.

Why did Gu Siyuan become a fame and reputation seeker in Gu Siyuan's mouth?

"What happened?"

Hearing his father's question, Gu Siyuan thought of what happened in Xianyang Prison again, and his heart seemed to be blocked.

Between the words, there was a little more disdain.

"Father didn't know, that person actually said that the Gu family's salt was not enough, and his words were all disdain for the Gu family, and I was really angry when I heard it."

"Hmph, I was ashamed to say that I could make finer salt."

"It's just a big tooth that makes people laugh off, who in this Daqin doesn't know the salt of my Gu family, it's the best!"

Looking at his son's proud expression, Gu Zongmin's face was a little displeased, but there was still some worry in his eyes.

"Don't talk too much, and the Gu family is not the only one in the world who can make salt."

"However, in the entire Kanto region today, there is no comparison to the Gu family."

Even if there is, the Gu family has a way to make him surnamed Gu.

Gu Zongmin didn't say this, but no one knew what it meant.

"What is the method of salt making that Ran Fang said?"

"This ......" Gu Siyuan paused, shook his head, and said a little decadently, "That person was very cautious and didn't say the method of making salt, saying that he would wait until three days later to see the truth in Xianyang Prison." ”

"So I will go with you that day."

Hearing this, Gu Siyuan's eyes flashed, but he didn't expect his father to really go.

At this time, he was a little flustered, and he didn't know whether to tell his father about the bet with Ran Fang.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Gu Zongmin knew that there was something to hide from him.

He snapped and asked, "What's going on?!" ”

Gu Siyuan hit a spirit, knelt directly on the ground, and didn't dare to raise his head: "Father, child, ......"

"The child made a bet with Na Ran Fang today, if he can't make finer salt, he will kowtow to me and admit his mistake and apologize to the Gu family."

"But...... But if he did, he would ...... Poop ......"

Seeing him like this, Gu Zongmin asked, "What's the matter?" ”

In fact, the current Gu Siyuan is a little weak-hearted, and he always feels that Ran Fang must be able to do it.

I don't know where this feeling comes from, but it's very strong.

In his father's fierce eyes, he had no choice but to tell the truth: "I will take eighty percent of the Gu family's industry...... All to him. ”

Gu Zongmin was stunned, and stood there for a long time without speaking.

Just when Gu Siyuan thought that his father was going to ask for family law, he heard a vicissitudes of his voice sound, "That's it, you get up first." ”

Gu Siyuan stood up inexplicably, not daring to look up at Gu Zongmin's eyes.

I heard Gu Zongmin say again: "This matter may be the will of heaven, and the Gu family has come to an end after all." ”

Hearing this, Gu Siyuan raised his head and looked at Gu Zongmin in surprise: "Father, what does this mean?" ”

Gu Zongmin raised his head and glanced at the distance before he said, "Do you know that someone in this court proposed to monopolize the sale of salt and iron in the imperial court, and His Majesty has already agreed. ”

"In a few days, this salt industry will not be the Gu family."

"If it is remembered in the old relationship, and the court is willing to continue to reuse the Gu family, then this matter is okay, if it is...... No, I'm afraid that these dignitaries of the Gu family are now gone. ”

"This ......" Gu Siyuan never thought that the Gu family's business would come to an end one day, and it was so fast, "The gamble between the son and that Ran Fang had no winner from the beginning. ”

"But father, Master Zhang and his father are also old friends, can't he be allowed to make peace from it?"

Gu Zongmin sighed, thinking of the news he received last night, he was still a little incredulous.

"The one who handled this matter was Master Zhang."

"However, if you can say that Your Majesty agrees to this matter, I don't know which master in the court is it."

"If this person can be found, then our family may still have room for turnaround, even if the property is handed over to the imperial court, it can still leave a piece of industry for our family."

"It's just...... There was no news from this person in the court, I am afraid that it would be...... It's hard. ”

This matter of salt and iron monopoly, not only the Gu family received the news, but also the whole court and the central government already knew about it.

And they all knew about the bet between Ran Fang and the little young master of the Gu family.

Everyone has a certain amount in their hearts, if Ran Fang really wins, then Ran Fang's power in the court in the future, I am afraid that no one can compare.

With His Majesty's support, then Ran Fang will become a hot figure in Xianyang, and I am afraid that he will be able to sit on an equal footing with Prime Minister Li Si.

This matter naturally reached Hu Hai's ears, and he felt a deep sense of crisis, and immediately sent someone to call Zhao Gao over.

When he came to Huhai Palace, Zhao Gao respectfully saluted Huhai and said, "See the second son." ”

"I don't know what happened when the second son came to find a slave?"

Seeing Zhao Gao, the nervous expression on Hu Hai's face suddenly stabilized a lot.

"Mr. has heard about Ran Fang?"

Zhao raised his head high, and a sneer rose at the corner of his mouth.

This matter was passed into Hu Hai's ears by himself, if he didn't have a sense of crisis, then how could he succeed?

When he raised his head, there was a look of concern on his face: "Second son, don't worry, that Ran Fang is just a Confucian student, even if he has all kinds of skills, he can only talk on paper in that Xianyang prison." ”

"It won't have any impact on the second son."

Hearing this, the worry in Hu Hai's heart decreased slightly.

But Zhao Gao's words still couldn't completely reassure him.

"But Fusu is also in prison, if that Fusu is friendly with Ran Fang, then Ran Fang's words are not Fusu's words?"

"My father already thinks that I can't compare to Fusu, so in my father's heart, isn't it even worse."

Seeing him like this, Zhao Gao's face also showed a look of worry.

"Second son, rest assured, Your Majesty is very good to you."

"Now that Fusu is in Xianyang Prison, even with Ran Fang's help, he must not be able to set off any storms."

"Just ......"

Hu Hai asked eagerly, "Just what, sir, but it doesn't matter." ”

Zhao Gao frowned slightly, and said in a slow tone: "Now that Ran Fang is quite famous in the court, if the salt is really made, then the Gu family's industry ...... I'm afraid it's really going to fall into his hands. ”

"When the time comes, Fusu Gongzi will naturally rise with the tide."

The slave is worried...... His Majesty will pay more attention to what the second son can do for the second son...... Not much. ”

Hearing Zhao Gao say this, Hu Hai knew that his worries were true.

And he also heard that his father wanted to appoint Fusu as the prince, so would he still be able to live in this palace at that time?

He said in a very anxious tone, "Sir, what should I do?" ”

even grabbed Zhao Gao's hand, "Please Mr. Ming"

Zhao Gao's eyes darkened, and he whispered a word in Hu Hai's ear, and Hu Hai's face suddenly became frightened.

With a trembling voice, he asked, "Sir, is this matter ...... Can it be done? ”

"As long as the second son is willing, even if the slave maid fights for his life, he will find a clear way for the second son!"
