Gu Qiancheng believed in Mama Sun, but this trust also had preconditions. When it came to his own future, Gu Qiancheng had to be cautious.
Gu Qiancheng did not let Mama Sun see what was in the box. Instead, he sent her to pack her things, prepare more clothes, and bring all the valuable things with her.
Although Gu Qiancheng was sure that he would come back, he still prepared for the worst. If the old man of the Gu family was as confused as the old lady, she would be in misery.
A woman who is alone outside without food or clothing is bound to die.
After Sun's mother went out, Gu Qiancheng opened the box. Inside the box was a book and a few gold leaves. Gu Qiancheng did not look at the gold leaves, but carefully took out the book.
The books are yellowish and the paper is a little dry. You can tell it is an old book at first glance, but it is still well preserved and does not affect reading.
Gu Qiancheng took off the cover of the book, and the three words "Yi Guozhi" were printed on the cover. Seeing these three words, Gu Qiancheng smiled.
She discovered this book when she first came here. At that time, she wanted to secretly find a piece of wood to fix her foot injury, so she put the idea on the bed board. Unexpectedly, the bed board was not used, but she found a treasure.
"Yi Guo Zhi" is an ancient book that is said to have been written by a royal prince of the previous dynasty. It records the treasures of various countries in the previous dynasty; the gold mines, silver mines, copper mines, mountains and rivers geography, and even detailed records of the emperors of each generation.
, the duke’s grave.
To put it simply, this is a treasure hunting guide, and it is also a wonderful book on the art of war. Because "Yi Guo Zhi" not only records treasures, but also records the terrain of various places. When leading an army in battle, being familiar with the terrain can take advantage of the location.
Such a book, not to mention the old prince, even Gu Qiancheng was very moved. Even if he didn't go looking for the treasure, dedicating this book to the emperor would still be a great achievement.
Of course, Gu Qiancheng thought of keeping such a great contribution to himself, but as a woman, she could not leave the palace or enter the palace. Of course, this is not the point. The point is that Gu Qiancheng only has half a copy of "Yi Guozhi".
Yes, when Gu Qiancheng discovered such a book, she only saw half of it, and the damn thing was that the half of the book in her hand only recorded the geography of mountains and rivers, and there was no trace of treasures at all.
However, for Gu Qiancheng, half of the book was enough to stay in the Gu family. With this half of the book, she was 70% sure that the old man would take her back.
If it really didn't work, she could still borrow the 800,000 taels of silver to make a fuss. Gu Guogong's palace would definitely not pay a dowry of 800,000 taels for Qianxue. After this incident, the Zhao palace would not agree to Qin Yunchu marrying Gu Qianxue as his concubine.
When the marriage between the two families falls out, Gu Guogong's Mansion will definitely go to Prince Zhao's Mansion to ask for her dowry. Based on the relationship between Princess Zhao and her mother, Princess Zhao will definitely ask for the dowry to be handed over to her. After all, she is the one who
The owner of that dowry.
Of course, the dowry matter can only be used as a supplement. If the two governments reach an agreement privately, she will have nothing to do. Gu Qiancheng still puts his hope in the hands of this half of "Yi Guo Zhi".
This half of the book could not be given to the old man like this, so Gu Qiancheng tore out the last few pages of half of the "Yi Guo Zhi" and wiped the binding rope clean, making it look like it had just been divided into two halves.
After doing all this, Gu Qiancheng put the book back into the wooden box, took out the gold from the wooden box, and put it on his body.
"Mother Sun." Gu Qiancheng fastened the wooden box and called Mother Sun in: "Send this box to the old man and say that I won't see you again for who knows how long after I leave. This is before I leave."
, something to honor his old man.”
"Don't worry, miss, I know what to do." Mother Sun took the wooden box over with a cautious look and held it tightly in her arms.
The lady said, this is a life-saving thing.
"Mama Sun, you must hand it over to the old man with your own hands. It doesn't matter if the old man doesn't open it, but it must be handed over to the old man and cannot fall into the hands of others." Gu Qiancheng was afraid of accidents and confessed again and again.
Mother Sun kept saying yes, almost swearing.
"Mother Sun, please go quickly. I will take care of the rest." Gu Qiancheng knew that it was not easy for Mother Sun to see Mr. Gu, so it was wise to go ahead and wait.
"How can I let the young lady do these things? I'll call someone to take care of it." Sun's mother finished speaking, turned around and walked out, but was pulled back by Gu Qiancheng: "Mom, don't go."
Gu Qiancheng shook his head: "Why did mom bother to come to the door and make a fool of those servants? The servants of the Duke's Mansion are used to scorning those who are high and low. Those servants don't even take me as a young lady in their eyes, so what?"
The young lady’s wet nurse will see it in her eyes.”
"Miss..." Sun's mother had tears in her eyes and looked distressed.
The daughter of the Duke's palace is really a loser living such a miserable life.
Gu Qiancheng shook his head indifferently: "I'm fine, mom, just do this well. Once this is done, and the old man will take care of it, our life at home will be easier."
No matter where you are, it is important to hug the lap of the person in power, and Gu Qiancheng plans to hug the lap of Old Mrs. Gu.
There was nothing she could do, other people's thighs were either too thin or they couldn't be hugged at all. Old Mrs. Gu was her only hope.
"Don't worry, Miss, I will definitely handle this matter." Sun's mother wiped the tears on her face, nodded heavily, and walked out quickly.
Gu Qiancheng stayed in the house to pack her things and put some clothes into the box prepared by Sun's mother. Gu Qiancheng didn't have many things. Even though she was hopping around on one foot, she packed them in just an hour.
"It's finally done." Gu Qiancheng breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the sweat from his face, and was about to get up and pour a glass of water when there was a rush of footsteps outside the door. It sounded like there were a lot of people.
"Coming right now?"
Are you in such a hurry?
Gu Qiancheng raised his eyebrows in surprise and stopped drinking water. He turned around and looked outside the door, only to see...
