Chapter 255 A lonely grave thousands of miles away
Yushi Dafu, an official position established during the Qin Dynasty, together with the prime minister and the Taiwei, are collectively known as the Three Dukes.
In the Qin Dynasty, it was the middle two thousand stones, in the early Tang Dynasty, it was the third grade, and then gradually became the third grade.
In the Song Dynasty, he was the second rank of Cong, but it has been reduced to a false title and has never been truly established. The closest person is Sima Guang.
The Yushi Dafu mainly has two functions. One is to handle political affairs as the prime minister's deputy, so he is called the deputy prime minister; the other is to serve as the head of the supervisory organization Yushitai, responsible for supervising all officials, especially the prime minister.
As powerful as Qin Hui, he only served as the lower-ranking Yushi Zhongcheng, and the current Yushi Zhongcheng was concurrently held by the Privy Council envoy Shi Miyuan.
When Guo Mo asked for the official position of imperial censor, it was no less than a bolt from the blue, which was beyond everyone's expectations.
However, for a while, no one could come out to refute him or stop him.
The main reason why the Song Dynasty did not set up this position was because the imperial censor was too high and powerful, and sometimes he could even compete with the official family.
Therefore, if this position is set up or not, the most fundamental interest lies with the official Zhao Kuo. Would he care?
"Xue Qing, in your opinion, what do you think of King Yan's proposal?"
Zhao Kuo kicked the ball to Xue Ji anyway, didn't you want to hide from Qingjing?
I just want you to express your opinion. After all, this is an appointment to an official position. As the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, you are also bound to have a duty.
"In the official family, censors and officials have existed since the Qin Dynasty. In our laws of the Song Dynasty, the duties, specifications, salaries, etc. of censors and officials are also clearly stipulated."
"It's just that there has never been a suitable candidate for the job, so it has been vacant for hundreds of years. Now whether it is established and who will be the censor, I think it is enough for the official to be the official."
Having said this means that it has not been said, and the official Zhao Kuo has to make the decision himself.
Xue Ji also couldn't understand why the officials trusted Guo Mo so much.
Isn’t this too bottom-line?
"Well, in that case, I will act arbitrarily once again. I will take back the power of King Yan as the general marshal of the world's soldiers and horses, and only retain the King of Yan's bodyguards. From now on, I will also serve as the imperial censor."
"Xiang Shi, you have worked hard for the Song Dynasty for many years. Now that you are getting older, in my opinion, why not remove the title of 'Yu Shi Zhongcheng'? This will also put more burdens on the young people."
"This... I obey the order——"
Shi Miyuan never expected that the impeachment he carefully planned against Guo Mo would result in him losing his most powerful mouthpiece - Yushitai.
Li Zhixiao and a group of censors were naturally in mourning.
Originally, I was holding back my energy and wanted to earn a lot of face for Yushitai, but I didn't expect that I got an ancestor to come over.
The high-profile impeachment of King Yan had such an ending, which seemed more like a farce.
The official Zhao Kuo has already retired from the court, and many civil and military ministers have not yet recovered.
"Congratulations to His Highness King Yan——"
Cheng Ju, Hu Ju, Meng Zongzheng, Yue Ke, Song Ci and other important ministers came over one after another to express their congratulations to King Yan.
In fact, these people, with the help of old Cheng Jue, had made a plan in private last night.
If something unexpected happened to King Yan this morning, these people would risk their lives to protect it.
Of course, those who know Guo Mo's true identity here are just showing off their acting skills, while those who don't know are actually working for Guo Mo's own interests.
I didn't expect that the final ending would be such a dramatic scene.
Is that the imperial censor?
Before this happened, who would have dared to think about this, probably not even the officials would have thought of it, right?
His Royal Highness the Prince and Shi Miyuan also walked out of the "Daqing Hall" one after another. However, old Xue Ji seemed to have become much older all of a sudden, coughing and walking out.
"Xue Shangshu, please stay -"
Suddenly, Guo Mo separated from everyone and stopped Xue Ji who was about to walk out of the "Daqing Hall".
Xue Ji was a little surprised to see that it was Guo Mo who called him, and everyone around Guo Mo didn't understand what he meant. Only old Cheng Jue seemed to have expected something.
"His Royal Highness, King Yan, has something to do, so I'll take my leave first——"
They are all discerning people. Seeing Guo Mo calling Xue Ji, everyone felt uncomfortable staying here any longer and left one after another.
Of course, except for old Cheng Ju, although he wore the official uniform of the Minister of Rites, he also held the position of Sima of Prince Yan's Palace.
"I don't know what the purpose of Your Majesty King Yan is when he calls me here?"
Xue Ji couldn't guess what Guo Mo meant, so he simply asked openly.
"It's nothing important. I just heard that Xue Shangshu was coughing continuously. It seems that there is something wrong with his heart. I want to make an appointment with Xue Shangshu and come to my house to help you with your diagnosis and treatment."
Guo Mo said leisurely.
"What?"
Xue Ji was a little surprised. He also considered many possibilities, but he didn't expect that the reason given by His Highness Prince Yan was that he wanted to "cure" himself?
"Perhaps Xue Shangshu still doesn't know that the bodies of today's officials were personally nursed by me a few years ago."
Is this happening?
Xue Ji tried hard to recall the changes in official Zhao Kuo in recent years. Although Zhao Kuo was five years younger than Xue Ji, his body a few years ago could not keep up with the old Xue Ji.
But now it seems that the official family does not look like someone who is already fifty-five years old?
Not only is his face glowing red, but he seems to have never stopped going to court in the past few years?
Unlike those years when I was always sick some days, now I occasionally go hunting outside Lin'an City with my bodyguards.
"Haha, I said, Lao Xue, have you seen me, Lao Cheng? I was also treated by King Yan's rejuvenation master. If it's inconvenient to come to your house, you might as well come to my place at night."
He knew the elegant meaning of the song after hearing it, and as soon as he heard that Guo Mo wanted to "treat" Xue Ji, old Cheng Jue understood what King Yan wanted to do.
I also took a sick leave and went to Luoyang City to "recuperate".
What happened later proved that His Highness King Yan’s dose of medicine was the right medicine for the disease. Didn’t he recover?
It cannot be said that Old Cheng Jue's thinking was wrong, it can only mean that he still does not fully understand Guo Mo.
It was true that Guo Mo wanted to capture Xue Ji, but it was also true that he wanted to treat him.
Including what I said before, it is not a lie to treat the official Zhao Kuo, but he did not do it himself.
Xue Ji glanced at Cheng Jue, and then looked at Guo Mo for more than ten breaths.
"Hey, that's fine. Since I'm begging His Highness to help me, how can I make His Highness condescend? Tomorrow Xue Ji will just pay a visit in person."
After Xue Ji finished speaking, he bowed to Guo Mo and walked out of the "Daqing Hall". He seemed to have let go a lot, and even the steps he walked out became lighter.
"Cheng Sima, it seems it's time for dinner now, why don't you come with me to the official's house to have dinner?"
Guo Mo said casually. Old Cheng Jue's eyes widened after hearing this. Is this really good?
Without waiting for his refusal or reply, Guo Mo walked towards the palace.
"Your Highness, please wait for me. Your salary as a Sima has not come yet. I am worried about having no place to eat..."
Cheng Jue's loud voice carried far away and was heard by the old eunuch who came from the harem.
When he raised his eyes, he saw Guo Mo walking in front, and Cheng Jue trotting behind with his robe lifted up.
"Our seventh master is really good. He even led the dignified Minister of Rites astray."
"Your Highness King Yan, the officials have summoned you at Funing Palace. Please come with me -"
The old eunuch came to Guo Mo and saluted.
"Very good. I have something to go to see the official. I would like to ask the imperial kitchen to prepare more meals for two people and send them to Funing Hall."
As soon as Guo Mo greeted Cheng Ju, the duo from Prince Yan's Mansion headed straight for Funing Hall, arguing along the way about whether they should have some wine to go with their meal.
"Who are these people?" The old eunuch shook his head.
Forget it, I don’t have the same knowledge as them. Fortunately, what Guo Mo said is similar to the official explanation, it’s just that there is one more person to eat.
"Your Majesty Guo Mo, Cheng Ju comes to visit the official family——"
When outsiders are around, Guo Mo still has to pay attention to etiquette.
"Oh, you came so quickly? Cheng Shangshu is also here. What can I do?"
Zhao Kuo had just asked the old eunuch to summon Guo Mo, but he didn't expect that he would arrive so soon, and he would also come with Cheng Jue.
"This... I would like to inform you that Cheng Ju, the Minister of Rites and Deputy Envoy of the Privy Council, is still thinking behind closed doors. Now standing in front of you is Cheng Ju, the Sima of Prince Yan's Palace."
"This is just one day after taking office, and His Highness King Yan has not yet paid his salary, so..."
Despite Cheng Ju's smooth talk in front of the old eunuch, he still didn't have the nerve to say the last few words when he actually faced the official.
Although we have known each other for decades, it is not that we have never come to the palace to have dinner, but it is the first time that we have come to the palace for dinner like today.
"Haha, daddy, my son is bringing my Sima to come to your place for a meal——"
Guo Mo said it confidently, while old Cheng Jue said "hehe" sillyly beside him.
"Xiao Qi, are you already?"
Zhao Kuo heard that Guo Mo actually called him "daddy" in front of Cheng Jue. Although Guo Mo was nominally his adopted son, it seemed a bit inappropriate to call him like this.
"Dad, my son has already told Cheng Shangshu the truth. Otherwise, can he kidnap a Minister of Rites and come to me to be the Sima of the palace?"
Seeing that everyone had said everything, Cheng Jue also went out of his way and bowed to the ground solemnly to the official Zhao Kuo.
"The official family, the old minister congratulates the official family and the country of the Song Dynasty. The old minister will definitely assist His Highness with all his heart, dedicate himself to his life, and die!"
After Cheng Ju said these words, when he raised his head again, his eyes were filled with tears.
Guo Mo didn't quite understand Cheng Ju's thoughts, but as a person of the same age and a monarch and minister who had been together for decades, Zhao Kuo could really feel Cheng Ju's mood.
Zhao Kuo also excitedly came out from behind the imperial desk and came to Cheng Jue. He grabbed old Cheng Jue's hand with one hand and pulled Guo Mo over with the other.
"Thank you so much, Cheng Qing! Yes, Mo'er is my biological son. He is my son, my Xiaoqi..."
At this time, how could Zhao Kuo still be an official?
He is clearly just an ordinary old man showing off his son to his long-time friends.
This feeling is very strange. Zhao Kuo and his son have known each other for several years, but because the matter is so important, it has never been fully disclosed.
Now, being able to express his true emotions without reservation in front of one of his important ministers is almost a rare "luxury" for Zhao Kuo.
With little effort, the old eunuch turned around again and directed several young eunuchs carrying food boxes to place plates of exquisite dishes.
The round dining table placed inside the Funing Hall finally came into use.
"Mo'er, there's not much of this 'Peach Blossom Brew' left. You can ask 'Peach Blossom Island' to send some more later."
In the past few years, Zhao Kuo's health has been getting worse every year, and he has also begun to drink moderately, but he has always only drank the medicinal wine "Peach Blossom Brew" specially brewed by "Peach Blossom Island".
It removes greasiness and eliminates food, relaxes muscles and activates blood circulation, replenishes qi and nourishes the body. Zhao Kuo gradually got used to this taste.
"Mo'er, the scene in today's morning meeting was a stroke of genius! This censor's station has been very active in the past six months, so you have to put some effort into taking care of it."
Indeed, due to the ancestral system, these censors really started to fight, and you couldn't kill them or punish them, which made Zhao Kuo depressed several times with renewed fighting spirit.
"Dad, we have obtained the imperial censor doctor, but my son really has a dark eye on the censorship platform. He has no talents in this field. It's difficult -"
Guo Mo is really not lying. In this day and age, it is really difficult to find a civil servant who can take charge of his own affairs.
You should know that when later generations of historians evaluated this period of history in the Song Dynasty, they divided it into two phases.
The conclusion drawn is that the Northern Song Dynasty lacked generals and the Southern Song Dynasty lacked prime ministers.
The civil servants who really took action in the Southern Song Dynasty cannot be completely regarded as civil servants. They are Zhang Shijie, Wen Tianxiang and Lu Xiufu, who are known as the "Three Heroes of the Late Song Dynasty" by later generations.
However, now that Zhang Shijie is his eldest disciple, he is only a teenager, so it is too late to encourage him.
The other two are even worse. According to the original historical time, Wen Tianxiang and Lu Xiufu were born in the same year, and they would not be born until another thirteen years.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Guo Mo's "complaint" made the three of them drink wine unhappily.
"Mo'er, what do you mean, you want to be like the army in Yushitai, find a suitable person to take care of it for you, and just control the general direction yourself?"
Zhao Kuo finally understood why Guo Mo so happily handed over the gold medal of "I am here in person" at the "Daqing Hall".
On the one hand, the relationship between his father and son is there, but on the other hand, even if Shi Miyuan wants to mobilize the four armies under Guo Mo, will it really work?
You may not necessarily directly disobey orders, but at the very least, you will still be disobeying orders.
At this point, Zhao Kuo was a little envious of his son, but unfortunately, he really did not have such conditions.
Cheng Jue, who was drinking, suddenly put down his glass.
"Officers, Your Highness, if you want to talk about someone who can take care of the Yushitai in an all-round way, I really have such a person in mind. Moreover, in my opinion, this person must come out at this moment."
"However, this person's qualifications are older than that of the veteran minister, and he has nothing to do with His Highness. He was also ostracized back then, so I'm afraid the officials will have to personally invite him."
This old Cheng Jue actually pretended to be a secret.
"Cheng Qing, what are you talking about?"
Zhao Kuo didn't really remember for a moment who had such great energy that Old Cheng Ju could admire him.
Yushitai was also an important government office in the imperial court, and after so many years of management by Shi Miyuan, ordinary people might not be able to handle it.
"Guan, have you forgotten Uncle Wei Jing and Wei Qing?"
Wei Jing was named Qingshu, also known as Houle Jushi, Xiyuan Jushi, a native of Huating, Jiaxing, and moved to Pingjiang and Kunshan. In the 11th year of Emperor Xiaozong's reign in Chunxi, he became the first scholar in the imperial examinations, the number one scholar, and was friendly with Zhu Xi.
At the beginning of Ningzong's reign, he moved to the imperial censor Zhongcheng.
In the third year, he participated in the plot to kill Han Wanzhou. In addition to signing letters to serve in the Privy Council, he also participated in political affairs. Later, he became the prime minister Shi Miyuanji and gave up his knowledge of Tanzhou.
"Uncle Wei Qing? I remember that he seems to be ten years older than me. Can he still go out to do things now?"
Wei Jing was also a big boss in the imperial court at that time. He once served as an agent in the Ministry of Personnel. He was the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel before Xue Ji and the Censor Zhongcheng before Shi Miyuan.
However, he was squeezed out of the court by Shi Miyuan's family. He has been serving as a local magistrate over the years, and seems to have changed several places. Zhao Kuo can't even remember his last place.
"What the officials don't know is that this old man Wei resigned from Zhezi last year. Now he lives in his eldest son's house next to the West Lake. He reads and writes poems every day. He recently published a "Collection of Houle"
'."
"I visited him half a year ago. Mr. Wei is in excellent health. He has been going to the Yushitai for three to five years and there is no problem at all."
Speaking of Wei Jing, Cheng Jue also respected him very much. He had helped him in the past, and he was someone whom Shi Miyuan could not deal with.
It's just that Wei Jing was too upright and not as sophisticated and smooth as Cheng Ju, so he was successfully excluded.
"Okay, then I will personally visit the Wei Mansion tomorrow and ask Uncle Wei Qing to come out and help Mo'er!"
Zhao Kuo also knew that Wei Jing must have resentment in his heart. After all, it was his "inaction" that allowed Shi Miyuan to cover up the situation when his family was being ostracized.
Now, in order to pave the way for his son, he would not hesitate to give up his old face.
Zhao Kuo also knew that now that Wei Jing and the others were determined to win, they could not simply issue a decree to pass.
He is already sixty-five years old, and he is a man of character. If he really resists the decree and is disrespectful, even though he is an official, there is nothing he can do against the old man.
The day after the transfer is a crucial day.
Father and son, Zhao Kuo and Guo Mo, took action to capture two talented people.
One is already serving as an official, the former Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, Wei Jing; the other, of course, was sent to his door by himself, the current Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, Xue Ji.
No one knows the details of how the father and son persuaded each other.
However, these two people unanimously used the simplest and crudest trick - to reveal Guo Mo's true identity.
Guo Mo was even more exaggerated, directly comparing Xue Ji to people like Jia Xu and Jia Wenhe during the Three Kingdoms period.
He talked about the five realms of counselors - seeking oneself, seeking people, seeking soldiers, seeking the country, and seeking the world, which made old Xue Ji feel like a confidant.
He also diagnosed and treated old Xue Ji's lung disease. It was difficult to eradicate old Xue Ji's disease, but it was easy for Guo Mo to suppress the attack and relieve the discomfort.
When he reveals his true identity to Xue Ji, he will naturally have no disadvantages.
A person like Xue Ji may not really be loyal to anyone, all he pursues is a stage to showcase his talents.
Zhao Kuo couldn't give it to him, so he turned to Shi Miyuan.
Now, Zhao Kuo wants to work hard to govern, and his own son is a man of great talent and strategy.
Comparing the two, how to choose? Isn’t the answer obvious?
"Your Highness, if such a day comes, I hope that Your Highness can let Prime Minister Shi die in peace."
After hesitating for a moment, Xue Ji finally said what was in his heart.
"Hahaha - Xue Shangshu's words are serious. Guo Mo is not a murderous person. In any case, Shi has been a great help to the officials for many years. He will be allowed to die well in both public and private matters."
"However, Prime Minister Shi has controlled the government for many years, and his party members are numerous and mixed, which has caused a lot of harm to the Song Dynasty and the people. I hope that Xue Shangshu can fully help me to make up for my mistakes over the years."
These words are a slap in the face of Xue Ji.
Two days later, official Zhao Kuo issued two appointments.
"Wei Jing was promoted to the position of Yushi Zhongcheng and was responsible for the daily affairs of Yushitai."
"Zhao Rushu, the former chief historian of the Prince of Yan's Palace, was changed to the left chief historian of the Prince of Yan's Palace, and Xue Ji, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, also served as the right chief historian of the Prince of Yan's Palace."
These were two more bombshells, causing the ruling and opposition parties in Lin'an to once again be shaken.
"Why? Why does my father treat me like this? Who is Guo Mo? I am the Crown Prince of Song Dynasty——"
Prince Zhao Hong smashed everything in the bedroom to pieces. He also kicked two slow eunuchs hard.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Why? Can any of you tell me why?"
"Haha, you said that I am old and want to make way for the younger people? But the new censor, Zhongcheng Wei Jing, is five years older than me -"
"Xue Ji? You Xue Ji, you climbed a high branch? The right chief of the Yan Palace, haha——"
It was not only the prince Zhao Hong who couldn't figure it out, but also the Privy Council envoy Shi Miyuan.
It's just that after all, he has been the prime minister for many years and has the temperament developed by being in charge of the overall situation for a long time, so he will not collapse into hysteria like Prince Zhao Hong.
Shi Miyuan knew what kind of abilities Xue Ji had, and he knew exactly what kind of ambitions Xue Ji had.
Because of this, he was a little puzzled by Xue Ji's behavior.
Unfortunately, no one could answer his questions, so they simply gave the officials a break and stayed in the mansion to "recuperate" while thinking about the next step.
Of course, Shi Miyuan didn't just have things that didn't go his way. There was something, or rather a person, in front of him that made him feel both happy and sad.
That is, my favorite adopted daughter is back.
After running away from home for almost three years, Li Mochou felt inexplicably uncomfortable when she returned to Shi's Mansion again.
The place is still the same as before, but there are not many familiar people left.
Of course Shi Miyuan was happy about Li Mochou's return. The reason why he said it was a mixed blessing was because Li Mochou was dressed like a woman.
What made him even more uncertain was a piece of news that came back from the north a few days ago.
Genghis Khan Temujin held the "Heroes of the World Conference" in Zhongdu City, which caused a stir all over the world, and it is impossible for the Song Dynasty not to know about it.
Especially the last exciting moment in the ring, the reputation of the "three beauties of martial arts" Qiao Huang Rong, Leng Mochou and Sa Murong spread throughout the world.
"So, what is the relationship between this girl Mochou and this Guo Mo now?"
More than two years ago, Shi Miyuan could tell that his adopted daughter Li Mochou had feelings for Guo Mo, who was only the commander of the "Dunwu Army" at that time.
Now, this girl has become sisters with Guo Mo's wife, Jin Lan. Is there any other relationship between them?
Guo Mo, who originally wanted to stay down-to-earth in Lin'an for the first half of the year, only lived in the luxurious Prince Yan's Mansion for more than a month and couldn't stay any longer.
Thinking about the old man Zhao Kuo, who stayed in the palace all year long, Guo Mo felt bad for him.
It barely passed the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, and seeing that the New Year was only half a month away, Guo Mo sent people to summon Cheng Jue, Xue Ji, Wei Jing and the fourth master "Nanshan Woodcutter" Nanxi Ren to Prince Yan's Mansion.
On the second floor of the "Star Reaching Building", a banquet was set up to entertain four people.
"Your Highness, you have no merit and no reward. You have nothing to do but invite the four of us here. Isn't it just for a meal?"
Everyone else was serious, even Guo Mo's fourth master treated his apprentice like a prince in front of outsiders, but this old Cheng Ju was special.
As soon as he finished speaking, Wei Jing rolled his eyes.
This old man Wei is indeed an old-fashioned person, and the older he gets, the more old-fashioned he becomes.
"Cheng Sima, please pay attention to your words. You are talking to His Highness King Yan of the Song Dynasty, and even more so in the future..."
Everyone didn't dare to be happy, and they all followed Mr. Wei's instructions honestly.
"It's like this. As the new year is approaching, my old lady wants to meet her two grandsons and granddaughters. After they were born, they haven't met my grandmother yet."
"I just want to take advantage of the Chinese New Year to go to 'Peach Blossom Island' together. I haven't been back for a year and a half."
"In addition, last time outside Lin'an City, there were some victims whose houses were damaged by heavy snow. I don't know how they were dealt with afterwards. Although I donated some money and goods, I was still worried and wanted to stop by and have a look."
Guo Mo did not hide his whereabouts or thoughts from these people.
Everyone understands that the co-writing process took more than a month. Things in Prince Yan's Mansion and Yushitai are on track, and our master wants to sneak out again.
"Your Highness's heart of benevolence and filial piety is highly admired by the ministers, and his love for the common people is an example for all the people in the world. Your Highness can act as he pleases. There are ministers waiting at the Imperial Palace in Prince Yan's Mansion, and His Highness will not be distracted.
"
You see, although Wei Jing is old-fashioned, what he says is high-sounding, and he is always trying to maintain the image of King Guo Moyan.
"Your Majesty, Wei Zhongcheng, I don't want to disturb the local area during this trip, so I won't take the guards of Prince Yan's palace with me. In addition, I hope that the news of my trip will not be leaked to anyone."
"Just treat it as if you are still in Prince Yan's Mansion. If it is convenient for the four of you, come to Prince Yan's Mansion to meet from time to time to exchange opinions or news, so that outsiders can feel that I am still in the Prince's Mansion."
"As for the official family, I will go to the official meeting and tell you. I will leave it to Xue Changshi and Cheng Sima for the affairs of Prince Yan's palace. In the Yushitai, Wei Zhongcheng has full authority to handle all matters, big and small."
At the end of the day, Guo Mo received five thousand taels of silver notes as a gift for the festival.
As the saying goes, the emperor is not short of hungry soldiers, not to mention that he is only the King of Yan.
Old Wei Jing was reluctant to take it at first, but later Guo Mo was forced to give up and just coined a new term "Integrity Money" to send Mr. Wei away.
Unexpectedly, this word won repeated praise from several people, "Your Highness's talent and learning are really God-given"?
On the sixteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, as soon as the east gate of Lin'an City opened, two ordinary carriages came out of the city.
Mother Li Ping, sister-in-law Hua Zheng, Zhang Ting and little Guoping rode in one, while Guo Mo and Huang Rong took little Haji in one.
Worried about being recognized, Guo Mo chose to travel by carriage.
Without bringing any bodyguards, the "Black Wind Shuangsha" couple directly transformed into two carriage drivers, and everyone went to Niujia Village first.
"Grandma, is Niujia Village where you originally lived?"
Guo Ping, who will be six years old after the Chinese New Year, is even stronger than Guo Jing back then.
Although his personality follows Guo Jing's, his eyes look more and more like Hua Zheng's. With his loyal personality and these big eyes, he looks much more energetic than Guo Jing.
This kid has already started learning martial arts. More than a month ago, he suddenly proposed to his mother, Hua Zheng, that he wanted to learn martial arts.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Hua Zheng told Guo Mo that his eldest brother Guo Jing was not around, so Guo Mo simply came to enlighten his nephew in person.
It was still too early to learn the internal skills and mental methods. Guo Mo just extracted a trace of the true energy and slowly put it into Guo Ping's body, allowing him to experience the feeling of the true energy running in the body.
A set of "Nanshan Palm Technique" was divided into three parts by Guo Mo, and he first taught little Guo Ping the first part. After a few days, the little guy was able to do it well.
This time when he went to "Peach Blossom Island", Guo Mo also wanted to put Guo Ping and Yang Guo together, plus his two children, as well as Lu Guanying's children, and asked the fifth junior brother to send their Ye Feng as well.
Bar.
Just ask the mother-in-laws Feng Heng and Huang Rong to open a kindergarten class in "Yu Ying Tang".
The feeling of being close to home is even more timid. Since leaving Lin'an City, Li Ping has asked Guo Mo several times, when can he go to Niujia Village?
When they finally came to Niujia Village, not to mention Li Ping, who had been away for more than 20 years, even Guo Mo and Huang Rong who had been here a few years ago did not dare to recognize her.
"Brother Mo, is this still 'Niujia Village'?"
Huang Rong couldn't help but ask questions, and Guo Mo couldn't guarantee it.
"I've seen Guo Tidian——"
At this moment, two young men dressed as farmers came from the opposite side, came to Guo Mo and clasped their fists slightly.
The person known as "Guo Tidian" is the "Imperial City Secretary". Guo Mo's position has changed a lot in recent years, but the position of "Tidian Imperial City Secretary" seems to have always been there.
After carefully identifying the two people in front of him, Guo Mo just had a vague impression.
"Is this 'Niujia Village'?" Guo Mo asked.
"Back to Guo Ti, this place can no longer be called 'Niujia Village'. It has been connected with two nearby villages. Now it is called 'Guoyang Town'."
"The restaurant next to the road is the 'Guo Yang Winery'. Going further east, the largest courtyard is the 'Guo Mansion' that was built just last year. I will take you there."
Sure enough, before walking too far, I saw a stone monument erected on the side of the road - Guoyang Town.
Walking further inside, I found that the original village was basically still preserved, but the area along the official road had been unified planned.
The second natural village is the original Niujia Village, but now "Guofu" already occupies half of the land of the original Niujia Village.
In order to compensate the people who gave up their land, they were directly concentrated on the other half of the land, built new houses for them, and distributed them to everyone for free.
Fortunately, there are only a dozen households, so the cost is not too much and it does not cause any unnecessary trouble.
"Mo'er, mother wants to visit your father's grave first."
Twenty-four years of age, a lonely tomb thousands of miles away, cold clothes during the Qingming Festival, who will worship it?
However, today there are actually people offering sacrifices.
