Chapter 1334 I rely on the imperial examination to get ahead and become a frontier official (41)
The young prince and a group of ministers, "...!"
Gu Mo, you black lotus!! Can you be any more pretentious?
Half a year later, Supreme's health became worse and worse, and he finally passed away peacefully in that season when the green gauze tent was hung.
The Supreme Emperor had many daughters, all of whom were ambitious and dissatisfied with the concubine. Therefore, the change of political power was bound to produce political bloodshed.
The common people knew nothing. By the time the palace's underground river was dyed red with blood, a bloody coup had ended.
The final winner is still the princess.
She dealt with several younger sisters who were ambitiously vying for the throne. When she came to the throne, the royal family only had a few fewer members.
Those in the cabinet who secretly supported the other princesses were also imprisoned.
Gu Mo seemed to have done everything, but also seemed to have done nothing.
As soon as the new Supreme Master came together, there was no one in the cabinet now, and Gu Mo became the most qualified. So an imperial edict came down, and Gu Mo took the top spot in the cabinet and became the chief minister.
This time he really stole the show, and all the eyes of the civil and military officials in the court were focused on Gu Mo.
But Gu Mo felt like he was being roasted on the fire by the empress who had just ascended the throne.
But she had guessed all this before.
This new supreme leader has always treated people with sincerity and convinced them with virtue, and he can easily win the favor of others.
However, her appearance of modesty is fake. It is just a way for her to win people's hearts.
Who knows that her ambitious sisters are not mediocre people. In comparison, she is not as good as her own sisters in terms of ability.
So we can only play tricks and recruit talents.
Now that the late emperor is dead, she has sat on the dragon throne and has no worries. The rebellious nature in her heart has been completely released, and she doesn't want to hide it at all.
Therefore, it seemed that she didn't want to use the person assigned to her by the late Emperor. She just wanted to put Gu Mo on the fire to see if he could be roasted to death.
However, just because she is rebellious does not mean that she will not be a good emperor. At least compared to her younger sisters, in this royal family, she is considered soft-hearted.
Gu Mo just pretended that he didn't know her intentions and did his job well so that she couldn't catch her mistakes.
Until a month later, the new emperor suddenly ordered Mr. Pu to be exiled.
Because in the battle to seize the throne, Mr. Pu supported another princess and stood on the opposite side of her.
Now that she has become the winner, Mr. Pu will not be able to survive in his later years, and he can no longer expect to live in peace and tranquility in his later years.
Gu Mo stood up and begged for mercy. For the sake of Mr. Pu's old age, he hoped that the new emperor would send Mr. Pu back to his hometown instead of being exiled.
New Emperor, "..."
Hum, the more you plead for mercy, the more I will be exiled, the farther away the better.
Gu Mo, "..."
If you exile me, I will kneel down.
Then he knelt outside the imperial study room for three days without eating or drinking.
It also rained in the past three days, so Gu Mo also got wet for three full days.
All the ministers who passed by could not bear it.
"I didn't expect Mr. Gu to be so stubborn."
"Mr. Pu was kind to her in the beginning. Mr. Gu is repaying his kindness."
On the fourth day, the officials also began to plead for Mr. Pu.
After all, they are veterans of two dynasties and have many disciples under their command. With Gu Mo taking the lead, it would be really ungrateful for them to shrink back now.
The new emperor had no intention of exiling people, but only intended to torture them.
When he saw that he had suffered enough, he let him go.
Gu Mo stopped kneeling and was carried home, seriously ill.
Uncle Qin felt a little distressed when he saw her sick look.
"Why are you doing this?"
Gu Mo coughed twice, "She was forced to learn from me in the past. I was a little stricter on her. She wanted to torment me. If I didn't let her toss her, she would go to torment the government."
Rebellious children don't like teachers who are too strict and serious.
Sacrificing the individual to fulfill the greater self, Gu Shoufu felt that Buddha's feat of cutting meat to feed eagles was nothing more than this.
Gu Mo's illness was not cured until envoys from the Yun Kingdom came to congratulate the new emperor of the Yue Kingdom on his coronation.
The envoy from the Yun Kingdom is King Yiyuan, who should now be regarded as the regent of the Yun Kingdom.
Because King Yiyuan's sister passed away a year ago, and the newly enthroned empress was still a little girl, King Yiyuan listened to the government behind the curtain as the regent and acted as an agent in the government, becoming the only one in the history of Yun State so far.
A man walking into court.
He is really smart and courageous.
However, such a person actually likes Qu Ruochu in the original plot???
Who knows what kind of chemical reaction this is.
As the chief minister of the cabinet, Gu Mo came out to greet King Yiyuan when he first arrived in Fengjing.
After sending King Yiyuan to the hotel, Gu Mo was about to leave, but King Yiyuan looked at Gu Mo with a half-smile.
"Master Gu, you and I are old acquaintances. Why don't you have a glass of wine and catch up on old times?"
Gu Mo, "I have just recovered from a serious illness, so I shouldn't drink alcohol."
King Yiyuan raised his eyes, looking quite charming.
He approached Gu Mo with a charming expression, "Mr. Gu, you are such a wonderful person. You are the most interesting person I have ever seen in my life. I find that I seem to like you a little bit. What do you think I should do?"
"
Seeing that Gu Mo didn't move, he came up from behind and breathed into Gu Mo's ear.
"Master Gu, such a romantic figure, is really..."
Before he finished speaking, the next moment, he backed away with a painful expression, then bent down and squatted down, pointing at Gu Mo with trembling fingers, with a look of disbelief on his face.
"You, you..."
Gu Mo smiled and asked, "Does King Yiyuan still like me?"
King Yiyuan gritted his teeth, "How can you kick someone casually?"
You actually hit a man as a woman? Is that a human being??
Gu Mo, "I didn't kick anyone casually, I kicked you very seriously."
It was a back kick, hitting the target accurately.
Gu Mo laughed and walked towards King Yiyuan.
King Yiyuan looked at her coming, his face turned pale, "What do you want to do?"
Gu Mo walked up to him and lifted his chin.
"King Yiyuan, do you still like me?"
King Yiyuan, "...I'm sorry, I'm being presumptuous. Actually, I want to say that Mr. Gu is really a good and upright official. If our country of Yun could have someone like you, you would be more than just the chief minister of the cabinet. You should be given the title of King with a different surname."
That’s it.”
Gu Mo, "If this is the case, I advise King Yiyuan not to say anything about it in the future. If you spread the word, I am afraid that my feet will be disobedient and hurt the delicate skin and tender flesh of King Yiyuan."
King Yiyuan still looked pained, feeling that Gu Mo was not a woman at all and was indifferent to such a stunning figure like him.
"Why does Gu Shoufu need to be so cautious?"
Gu Mo's expression was honest, "King Yiyuan is a carp. He practiced for five hundred years and became a dragon after jumping through the dragon gate. But I used to be just a loach. I practiced for a thousand years and became a carp. Then I practiced again."
It took five hundred years to jump over the dragon gate. Even if King Yiyuan failed once, he would still be a carp. But if I failed once, I would be a loach. How could I not be cautious?"
After saying that, she stood up, shook her sleeves and left.
