Chapter 1205: The Most Beautiful Man in the World's Road to Power (36)
"I won't go, I'm afraid."
"What are you afraid of, Taifu? Grand Sima thinks so highly of you, how can he arrest you too?"
Gu Mo glanced sideways at the speaker.
"If I remember correctly, you are the closest person to Da Sima, right? Da Sima will discuss anything with you. It can be seen that Da Sima values you more, so why don't you dare to go?"
The staff member touched his nose awkwardly.
Gu Mo also snorted, "You're afraid that you'll lose your head, so you're asking me to die? That's not kind."
After all, people who can serve as Huan Lin's staff are somewhat capable of deceiving others.
Next, he treated Gu Mo with emotion and reasoning. An ordinary person would have been reduced to tears by this theory, and then rushed to die.
Gu Mo, however, was stunned and motionless. Even when he was said to be passionate and generous, he even got up and went to the palace several times.
In the end, the staff had nothing to say, and Gu Mocai said: "Da Sima is wise and powerful, and he is not a stupid person. I think there is an ulterior motive for his actions now. I can go to Da Sima and ask about the inside story..."
Not to mention that Huan Lin is old and confused, but that Huan Lin has other plans and is giving Huan Lin face.
"But I'm just afraid that I'm not careful enough and may cause trouble for Da Sima and lose his head, leaving my whole family to suffer in this world. I really can't bear it..."
The staff heard the mystery in Gu Mo's words, "Then what does Taifu mean?"
Gu Mo stretched out two fingers and rubbed them.
The staff didn't understand.
Gu Mo, "I'm tight on money lately, you know."
Staff, "..."
He knew that Gu Mo would do anything to make money on weekdays, but he didn't expect that at this juncture, he would even care about his wallet??
"How much does it cost, Master?"
Gu Mo gestured with five fingers, and the staff almost cursed when he guessed based on the average amount of money Gu Mo usually blackmailed people.
"Master, how can I have so much money?"
He is just a poor staffer! Do you want to be so crazy?
"Then there's no way."
Gu Mo sighed and served tea to see the guests off.
The staff was unwilling to give in. Now in the entire Jiankang City, only Gu Mo, a reckless and crazy critic, could possibly stop Huan Lin from going crazy.
"Master, please wait for me for a while and I will raise money."
No matter how the staff managed it, the money was finally obtained.
He brought the money to Gu Mo, and Gu Mo's face shone with a smile.
"Oh Brother Zhang, I just hope you can give me a few pieces of silver for my hard work and let me arrange for the whole family to review the family fort. How can you be like this, like this..."
Gu Mo gave the staff a big hug.
"Brother Zhang is so loyal to each other, how dare Ziji live up to his intentions? Don't worry, I will risk my life to get this done for you!"
Staff, "..."
In order to show his grandeur, Gu Mo tidied himself up from top to bottom, and even imitated fashion and tied a peony flower on his head.
Staff member, "...Da Sima likes simplicity. Isn't it not good for Taifu to meet Da Sima like this?"
Gu Mo, "Da Sima likes to be plain, that's because you are all ugly."
Look good and dress carefully, and you won't be annoying no matter what you do.
Sure enough, Huan Lin usually saw too much of Gu Mo's simple appearance, but suddenly saw her in all her beauty, and her mood suddenly improved.
In the end, Gu Mo left the Huan Mansion intact. The next day, Huan Lin ordered the release of the arrested scholars. He did not even kill the Cui family, but sentenced them to exile.
No one knows how Gu Mo did it. They only know that Gu Mo is the only person in the world who can calm Huan Lin's anger.
Anyway, as long as Huan Lin is here, Gu Mo is someone who can't be offended.
When the Cui family was exiled, Gu Mo went to see her off in person. Cui Lantian looked at her riding a horse and remembered that when he first met this young man more than ten years ago, this young man was still an ant that he could easily crush to death.
But now, Jingchao's existence is like a cloud and rain.
Things are impermanent, and even a century-old family like the Cui family cannot survive forever.
He suddenly raised his hands towards Gu Mo and said sincerely, "This time, I would like to thank Taifu for interceding, so that my family, Cui, can be preserved."
Gu Mo only gave him a weak hand, but finally said to Mrs. Cui:
"When my mother was still alive, she often mentioned Mrs. Cui to me, saying that Mrs. Cui was a hero of the world. When Guangling fell, she was trampled by the iron hoofs of the Hu people. If Mrs. Cui had not led the troops to arrive in time, no one in the Gu family would have been spared.
Well, I, Mrs. Gu, will always remember it in my heart."
Then he gave a big salute to Mrs. Cui.
Only then did Mrs. Cui know that Gu Ziji was willing to plead for Mrs. Cui in front of Huan Lin, all to repay Mrs. Cui's favor.
Gu Mo then gave Mrs. Cui another letter.
"I will continue to grow stronger and stronger, and will not fall into the sky. I hope that my wife can regain her former heroic appearance."
Mrs. Cui was stunned for a moment, only took the letter and said nothing.
Seeing that Gu Ziji didn't say a word to him from beginning to end, Cui Rong spoke.
"Gu Ziji, it was you who caused the downfall of our Cui family, right? You were using me from the beginning to the end?!"
"The Cui family's downfall was not caused by your stupidity?"
Even Cui Lantian has already acquiesced that Cui Rong was responsible for the downfall of the Cui family.
Cui Rong felt guilty, but to be honest, she still didn't understand why Huan Lin fell out with her right away.
Is it really just because of Wushi San?
"Gu Ziji, do you dare to say that you didn't take advantage of me?"
Gu Mo smiled lightly.
"I will not take advantage of anyone easily, but in order to achieve my goal, I will not let go of any chess piece in the world that comes to my door."
Gu Mo admitted it, but Cui Rong had nothing to say. After a while, she said with tears in her eyes:
"Why is God so unfair? I tried my best just to get you to look at me one more time, but you still dismiss me, but what about Yun Niang? What did she do? She got it without doing anything.
Are you treating me wholeheartedly? Where do I lose?"
Gu Mo actually hated this sentence very much.
Some people always like to ask: Where did I lose?
People who ask this question usually feel that the person who defeated her is actually inferior to her and did not win based on strength at all.
In short, it’s just that you don’t admit your own failures and you don’t admit that you are inferior to others.
Gu Mo was too lazy to respond and rode away.
Cui Rong shouted at her back.
"Gu Ziji! I, Cui Rong, will come back one day!"
The officers and soldiers escorted the Cui family on the road.
On the way, Cui Rong asked Mrs. Cui with a face full of resentment, "Where is the letter Gu Ziji gave you? Give it to me!"
Mrs. Cui ignored her and went directly to get the letter. Mrs. Cui threw Cui Rong away and slapped her.
"You really shouldn't have this attitude towards your mother."
Later, Mrs. Cui read the letter from Gu Mo alone and then burned the letter. No one knew what was written on it.
After Zhinao used data to analyze the reasons for the demise of the Cui family, he suddenly understood the role Gu Mo played in this.
