The Power of the First Daughter, Doctor and Concubine Dominates the World

Xiao Lingsu's face was as red as the ripe Tao'er, and she was so annoyed that she gently pushed Chen Lingding, "Now you know you're kidding me?"

Xie Zhiwei was meeting guests in the main hall, and the Gu family father and son had already arrived. Originally, she asked Xiao Wei to help her receive them. Hearing that the Gu family was related to the Qiao family, Xie Zhiwei decided to meet him himself.

As soon as the Gu family father and son came in, they saluted Xie Zhiwei, and then met Xiao Wei, Xie Zhi smiled and said, "Sit down and talk!"

Gu Yan saw that although Xie Zhiwei was young, his words and deeds were very dignified, and there was a faint majesty about him, which made people dare not underestimate it, but it would not make people feel uncomfortable. He thought to himself that she was indeed the eldest daughter of the famous Xie family.

"Mr. Gu, Old Master Gu and my grandfather were officials in the same dynasty in the past, and the Gu and Xie families still have a good relationship."

These words made the Gu family father and son feel much closer and more at ease. Gu Yan smiled and said, "The princess's words reminded me of more than ten years ago, when I had a drink with Commander Xie, and later I heard that after Commander Xie went back, he was beaten up by Mr. Xie Ge."

Xie Zhiwei couldn't help laughing. Her father had never forgotten his photograph since he was a child, and he was very intelligent. He must have been extraordinarily high-spirited when he was young. "My father never told me about this. This time, Cousin Cui is really thanks to Mr. Gu and Mr. Gu."

As he said that, Xie Zhiwei couldn't help but glanced at Gu Ji. The young man raised his eyebrows and couldn't help laughing at what she and his father said. Seeing Xie Zhiwei sizing him up, he hurriedly lowered his eyes, a little shy, and blushed.

Xie Zhiwei hastily looked back, after all, she is not very old, staring at a boy, don't let people misunderstand.

"The princess is outrageous when he says this. Chen Min has the heart of disobedience. As a citizen of Dayong, if he just sits idly by and ignores him, he will be helping the evildoers."

Xie Zhi smiled and said, "This is because Mr. Gu and Mr. Gu have a sincere heart. I heard that Mr. Gu has a marriage contract with a girl from the Qiao family. This time I went north to discuss marriage. If there is a place where the palace can help , sir and young master must say it."

Gu Yan said with a smile, "Gouzi is not engaged. I don't know who spread the rumor that Gouzi has a marriage contract with Qiao's family. It was also to cover up people's eyes and ears, and Chen Min, so he simply resorted to tricks and found this reason."

Xie Zhi smiled, "It turns out that's the case. At present, Mr. Gu and the young master can't go back to Chuzhou, why don't you stay in Yanjing for a while, the girls in the north are well-educated, maybe they can really make things happen. A marriage."

Gu Yan got up and cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, princess, I also have the same idea. This time, I will take a look in Yanjing. Youyun Sixteen Prefectures used to be my territory in the Central Plains. How many years have they been separated? If it weren't for King Chen , I don’t know how many years I have to wait before returning!”

Gu Yan spoke very excitedly, Xiao Wei kept nodding from the sidelines, "My eldest brother is very powerful, it took only a few days of hard work, Xiliang was destroyed, Beiqi lost half of the country, Lou State no longer exists , Dayong's territory has nearly doubled."

Xie Zhi smiled and said, "The imperial court is extremely short of people. I wonder if Mr. Gu will play in next year's Enke?"

Gu Ji hurriedly asked, "Princess, will there be Enke next year?"

His tone was a little hasty, and when he realized it, he was very annoyed, and he was too impatient.

Xie Zhiwei didn't care, "There should be Enke next year. If there is no next year, there will be one in the year after next. Both Ningxia and Nuergandusi are short of people. The next few years in the imperial court can be said to be in great need of people. It is easy to conquer the country, but difficult to rule the country. The territory and peace gained by Dayong's tens of thousands of soldiers, if we can't keep it, wouldn't it be in vain?"

Gu Yan had mixed feelings in his heart, of course he understood what Xie Zhiwei meant when he said this to him. At that time, his father was the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, and after Emperor Zhaoyang committed suicide, he returned home. , is no longer the high-spirited scholar of the past, and of course understands the difficulties of the court today.

I'm afraid Princess Duanxian had such an idea from the very beginning, he cupped his hands and said, "Princess, the imperial court dispatched the Gu family to go through fire and water."

Xie Zhiwei winked at Xiao Wei, Xiao Wei hurriedly stood up, helped Gu Yan up himself, and said with a smile, "That's great, Mr. Gu, my elder brother really can't get away now, over there in Chuzhou, the second emperor My brother is still under siege, and I can't get out of many things, if I have the help of the Gu family, it can't be better."

Xiao Wei sent Gu's father and son off in person. Gu's father and son lived in a small courtyard of Cui's house, which was very close to Xiao's residence. Just take a look at the situation in Yanjing City.

"Look, it's only been a few days, and the city of Yanjing has already become so prosperous." Gu Yan walked all the way, but he was on the main street, and he saw peddlers coming and going, carrying baskets and driving cattle. The ordinary people who bought things by car had smiles on their faces, and couldn't help feeling extremely moved.

"Father, my son has been outside for the past two years. Compared with the past few years, the lives of ordinary people are much better." Gu Ji said, "In the past few years, my son was in Gusu. Although he was rich, except for those who were really rich In order to build a palace, the emperor went south several times and spent a lot of money on sending troops to the north, but it didn’t work. Taxes and corvees were extremely heavy, so it’s not as easy as it is now.”

Although the imperial city is still being built here, there is no increase in taxes. On the contrary, the wages paid are very good. Many craftsmen from the south also rushed to work. I heard that there is a monthly surplus every month. Many people say , if you do it for a few more years, you will be able to buy a few acres of land when you go back.

Here in the northern border, there is a policy that the people open up wasteland, and the wasteland is their own. There is no tax for the first three years, and many people don't plan to go back.

Dayong didn't know when, but he gradually got better. Although the current King Chen has not ascended the throne, he is already the Son of Heaven in the hearts of the common people, and his prestige in the western and northern borders has reached its peak.

"It seems that this time, I really want to come out to do something." Gu Yan stood in front of Dong'an Gate with his hands behind his back. The imperial city had already begun to take shape. The towering palace walls blocked his sight. He watched the busy scene inside. , In half a year, this imperial city will be inhabitable.

"Father, this is a good thing!" Gu Ji said, "I don't know if my son can catch up with Qiu Wei this year."

"If we can't catch up, there will be next year. Enke will be opened next year, and there should be Enke in the next year." Gu Yan thought that when the new emperor ascended the throne, he would open Enke next year.

Xiao Wei came back after seeing off the guests, Xie Zhiwei had already returned to Ninghui Hall, he hurried over and asked the servant girl to report, after a while, the servant girl came to welcome him, "Fourth Master, the princess invites you in."

Xie Zhiwei is looking at Linghua's dowry list, which is the same as Yuan Jia's first princess, there is no increase or decrease, and Xiao Lingsu's dowry list, Xie Zhiwei plans to deduct 10% from Linghua's.
