Niangniang only knew that Gu Zuo was the long history of a certain place, but she didn't know where it was, so she looked at Li Twelve, and Li Twelve immediately replied: "It is Gu Zuo, the governor of Southern Wu." ”

Seeing that the Son of Heaven frowned, he muttered: "It may be more appropriate to invite Wang Zhongcheng to listen." ”

Niangniang was puzzled: "San Lang, what's wrong with Gu Zuo?"

The Son of Heaven smiled and said, "Let's see what he wants......"

Gu Zuo was still waiting outside the palace gate at the moment, and was thinking about what to say when he saw Niangniang and His Majesty in order to better impress people's hearts, when he suddenly saw a court official coming out of the palace gate.

Gu Zuo's current spiritual realm is almost twenty zhang wide, as long as he has a heart, the wind and grass within the range can't hide him, so he heard someone in the carriage say: "Jiedu is back?"

The third-grade master boarded the car and sneered: "Gu Zuo Xiao'er, I thought I could set off a storm, but I was delusional......

The carriage went away, and Gu Zuo's heart suddenly felt cold.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for He Xiaofan to come out of the palace gate, and said to Gu Zuo through the car curtain: "Senior Sister Li said that today is not going well, please go back first, and wait for another day." ”

Gu Zuo asked, "What happened?"

He Xiaofan sighed: "I don't know why, Your Majesty heard that Senior Brother Gu wanted to see Your Majesty, so he didn't agree." ”

Gu Zuo returned to the Xihe Road Pavilion and decided to meet Gaolishi again, but Gaolishi is not something that can be seen when he says it, this has nothing to do with the friendship between the two, and it has something to do with Gaolishi's function.

After another two days, Gu Zuocai met Gao Lishi in the middle of the night, and Gao Lishi said: "Our family will not hide it from you, things may change." ”

Gu Zuo asked, "What's wrong?"

Gao Lishi said: "Because of Yang Xiang, Your Majesty summoned Xian Yu Xiang, Xian Yu Xiang confessed, and indeed intended to make you pay money, the total amount of which is almost one million." ”

Gu Zuo nodded: "This money, Xian Yuxiang said that it was for His Majesty?"

Gao Lishi said: "That's true, Xian Yu said that he wanted to serve His Majesty, and after the money was raised, he went straight to the inside, he didn't take a penny, and His Majesty's Sacred Heart was very happy." ”

"Your Majesty is so short of money?"

"Last time, in the case of the rebellion of the Wang Gong brothers, His Majesty was very angry. ”

"Could it be that you are angry with us for reporting Wang Jie?"

"Your Majesty thought that Wang Jiao raised the money for him, but after the incident, it went into the treasury of the household department...... Gu Changshi, if you want to move Your Majesty now, you have to have money. ”

Gu Zuo was silent for a long time: "Your Majesty wants so much money, what do you want to do?"

Gao Lishi said: "This is not a courtier's question. ”

Gu Zuo asked again, "What will happen next?"

Colliers replied: "It's very likely that it won't happen, you have to be prepared." ”

The meaning of the end is that Xian Yuxiang will not be held accountable, and the Lishui edict and the letter of Nanwu Prefecture will not be disposed of. Once Xian Yu escaped from innocence, when he returned to Jiannan, he would inevitably retaliate, so Gao Lishi asked Gu Zuo to prepare.

"Does the general think it can be redeemed?"

"Of course it can be redeemed, but how to redeem it, you should know it yourself. ”

Now Gu Zuo is really clear, if it weren't for the fact that this kind of thing can't be revealed to the world, I'm afraid that the Son of Heaven would have issued an edict directly and asked Gu Zuo to serve the palace. There is Wang Ji in the front, and there is Xian Yu Xiang in the back, and the method of winning the favor of the Son of Heaven is to give money to put it bluntly, if Gu Zuo can give more money to the Son of Heaven, the Son of Heaven will naturally favor Gu Zuo.

Although I had a premonition, I was deaf in my old age, but I didn't expect to be so deaf, it stands to reason that the world is your old man's family, why bother to loot it like this?

Gu Zuo carefully calculated, Gaolis's method is actually not a way, isn't it just to fight for money?

Xian Yu promised to promise one million guan, then this side will pay 1.5 million guan, two million guan, gather the power of Lishui, Yongchang, Montenegro, Tonghai, and Nanwuzhou, and don't believe in fighting but a Xian Yu Xiang!

But the question is, Xian Yu wantonly looted and sent money to the Son of Heaven, did he commit it himself? He relied on the Huaixian Pavilion, the Southern Wu Prefecture, the monks and the common people of the two and a half edicts and the land of the Eight Prefectures, and furthermore, he relied on the spiritual stone veins and the Chongxuan Administration, which had nothing to do with today's Zizhen.

After half the weather, Gu Zuo said: "After the beast tide, Nanzhao is in difficulty, and a large amount of money is really difficult to gather. The imperial court issued an edict to exempt taxes for three years, and the people rejoiced and cheered. ”

Colliers said: "This is difficult. ”

Gu Zuo asked: "If you can't repay the service, will the imperial court deal with it?"

Gao Lishi said: "The court also needs to be face-saving, and it will not be dealt with openly, and it will serve the palace, which is voluntary, not forced." Don't worry, if the political affairs hall really dares to draft an edict, our family will stop it even if they are desperate. ”

Gu Zuo clenched his fists: "Thank you, General." ”

Gao Lishi sighed: "Why thank me, this is not for you, for Your Majesty, for the sake of the society." The words were full of sorrow.

Gu Zuo was also in a mood, and he was not happy. The Son of Heaven and the Political Affairs Hall will not deal with anyone with this because of their face, but they will also not stop Xian Yuxiang from using his means, can it not make people sigh if the state affairs are like this?

Gu Zuo was still a little unwilling, so he went to Chen Xilie's mansion again, handed the post in, and waited outside the gatehouse. Although Chen Xilie is a kind mud, he is the left minister, and there is also a lot of traffic in front of the door, and there is a long queue of people to meet him, and there is an endless stream.

Gu Zuo didn't huddle with them, and stood alone with the stairs. A horse-drawn carriage drove past the waiting crowd to the door. A five-grade official got off the car, and everyone said in unison: "I've seen Dou Sheren." ”

This person is Dou Hua, a member of the Zhongshu House, although the rank is not high, the position is important. The disciple knew Dou Hua and hurriedly invited him in, Dou Hua took a few steps, suddenly turned around, looked at Gu Zuo, and asked, "But Nanwu Changshi is in person?"

Gu Zuo arched his hand: "Exactly." ”

Dou Hua smiled: "Is it to tell Xian Yu Jiedu?"

Gu Zuo's face sank, and he only heard Dou Hua say to the officials in front of the door: "Everyone, this is Gu Changshi, the owner of Huaixian Pavilion, who has recently shocked Chang'an. Chongxuan Department this spring sealed eighteen sects, Huaixian Hall is one of them, to build a foundation and get two edicts and eight states, Dou was convinced. I heard that Gu Changshi was still selling fish for a living ten years ago, and he obtained thousands of assets from Dinghumen, and then sold sperm preservation pills to get rich, and donated the history of the governor of Nanwu, so he was lucky and sat on the spiritual stone vein. If you want to get rich, you can have a good relationship with Gu Changshi, maybe you can give you an idea, and you can get millions of fortunes for nothing!"

The introduction of neither yin nor yang immediately caused the streets to laugh, and Dou Hua entered the Prime Minister's Mansion with his head held high in laughter.

Gu Zuo's face sank like water, glanced at the people who were laughing on the street, ignored them, and after a while, the housekeeper came out and said to Gu Zuo: "Gu Changshi, my family said that the matter of Nanzhao is really helpless, and I dare not accept it, Changshi, please go back." ”

Gu Zuo nodded, took the name post, and turned to leave in a laugh.
