Chapter 2652 Want to do something big in the Northland
"Jian'er, mother heard that things in the North are quite complicated. You should be more careful after you go there."
She reminded her son that in Kyoto, it was impossible not to understand some things, and you could still hear some rumors.
When Gong Jian heard her mother's words, she stopped packing her bags and turned to look at Mrs. Gong.
"Mother, did you hear something?"
"this……"
Madam Gong pursed her lips, not knowing what to say.
"It's nothing. I just heard from Mrs. Zhao that her master sent people to collect grain in the north, saying it was on whose orders it was."
"The Zhao family? The Zhao family from the Ministry of Rites?" Gong Jian frowned.
It seems that the Emperor's net is very wide. Not only the Northern Territory, but even Kyoto is his people.
Are these people really not afraid of being found out if they want to do something big in the North, since they are collecting grain so openly? Or they think that even if they are found out, they will have the support of the Supreme Emperor, and the Emperor will not dare to take them.
How is it?
"Mother, just forget about this and don't tell anyone about it. Also, don't tell anyone about my trip to the North."
He explained.
"Who are you as a mother?"
The palace lady rolled her eyes at her eldest son. The son was sent out by the emperor on errands to gain the emperor's trust. It was too late for her, a mother, to support him, so how could it hold him back?
Not to mention the outside world, even the concubines and concubines at home would never get any information from her, okay?
"Don't worry, go ahead. Mother is also asking you carefully here in Kyoto, just... I see, there is a severe drought in the north, so this errand is bound to be hard. You have to take care of yourself."
She was worried about her son. Going on errands was like taking care of his life. She had to lose a lot of weight every time she came back. She had already lost weight this time, and now that she was going to the North on errands, she had to endure even more hardships.
"I will take care of myself."
Gong Jian responded casually and continued to organize things.
"By the way, mother, Mrs. Zhao, you should have less contact with her in the future." He explained.
"Mother knows."
Madam Gong already knew what she was doing, so naturally she wouldn't let herself get caught up in it.
"Then you are busy, mother will prepare some dry food for you." After saying that, she left. There is a severe drought in the north now, and there is very little food and drink. She should prepare more and let her son take it there.
.
By the way, let your son's attendants take you with him, so that when your son arrives in the north and sees those poor people, he will eat all the food he has and leave nothing for himself.
"The Zhao family?"
After Mrs. Gong left, Gong Jian whispered softly.
The Zhao family really can't tell. They had nothing to do with the Supreme Emperor in the past. I'm afraid even the Emperor wouldn't think of it. The Zhao family would actually get orders from the Supreme Emperor and go to other places to secretly collect grain, right?
"Here comes someone."
"Sir, what are your orders?" The servant outside the door came in and asked.
"Let Gong Qi come to see me." Gong Jian ordered.
There were ten guards around him, and Gong Qi was one of them. Originally, he was determined to take Gong Qi away with him. It seemed that he had to leave one person in Kyoto to keep an eye on the Zhao family.
Maybe we can dig out more people.
Since the Emperor has entrusted him with the matter of the severe drought in the Northern Territory and the Emperor's evil intentions, he will keep an eye on the person regardless of whether he is in the Northern Territory or not.
