What about longevity and eternity... The old emperor always said it was impossible and asked people not to talk nonsense, but he was happy in his heart.
When the confidant eunuch said this, the old emperor felt much better, but he still said: "Who can really live a hundred years, I just live a little longer than ordinary people."
This is absolutely true. The old emperor can be regarded as the emperor with the longest reign, and of course he is also the oldest. The confidant eunuch flattered him a few more words at the right time. The old emperor smiled and waved his hand. The confidant eunuch immediately silenced and turned to ask
Said: "Your Majesty, how should we handle this matter with the Gu family?"
"Gu family? Let's take a look first. The fault of this matter is Lao Wu. Even without her, this matter would have happened. I am not a pedantic person. If the sister of the Gu family is really talented, I will keep her for a while.
Let’s talk about it after the emperor ascends the throne.”
In Beijing, everyone with eyes knows that Gu Qiancheng is Qin Jiyan's man. If Gu Qiancheng is dealt with, Qin Jiyan will be involved. The old emperor is still reluctant to let anything happen to Qin Jiyan.
Besides, from the scraps of paper on the table and the suggestion to Qin Jiyan to set up a household bank, the old emperor could see that Gu Qiancheng was quite good at amassing money.
Although the current treasury of Great Qin cannot be called empty, it is indeed not rich. If Gu Qiancheng has such ability, the old emperor is willing to let her live for a few more years and squeeze out all the value from her body.
The conversation between the old emperor and his confidant eunuch was naturally unknown to others.
After Qin Jiyan learned the old emperor's position on this matter from the leader of the Jinyi Guard, he understood that the old emperor would not take Gu Qiancheng's life for the time being.
Qin Jiyan guessed some of the reasons, but being useful is better than losing one's life. If Gu Qiancheng had no value at all, the emperor would never allow her to cause such a big trouble.
"I didn't even know that my Qiancheng was so talented." Thinking of the words of the leader of the Jin Yiwei, Qin Jiyan couldn't help but laugh.
It turns out that he still underestimated Qiancheng...
That night, Gu Qiancheng, dressed in black, walked out of Gu's house slowly with a guard. As soon as he went out, someone appeared with a black horse, "Girl, please!"
There was only one horse, which made it clear that she was the only one who could go. Gu Qiancheng raised his eyebrows and said to the person behind him: "You go back first." "Yes." The guard didn't refute a word, turned around and went back.
This person was given to Gu Qiancheng by Mrs. Gu. He said he was only loyal to Gu Qiancheng, but the specific details depended on his future performance.
The moon is full tonight, and the full moon like a silver disk hangs high in the sky. Countless stars are dotted on the black cloth in the sky, adding a touch of light to the dark night. With this light, Gu Qiancheng successfully arrived at the agreed date.
Place - a ruined temple on the outskirts of the city.
In the ruined temple, Jing Yan has been waiting for a long time. He is dressed in silver brocade clothes that are luxurious and flamboyant, and are incompatible with this ruined temple.
There is no need to get closer, just from a distance you can see Jing Yan's figure bathing in the moonlight.
The two people's eyes met. Gu Qiancheng did not change his steps, nodded slightly, and continued walking forward. When he stepped into the ruined temple, he heard Jing Yan say: "I thought you wouldn't come."
"I owe you a favor, how dare you not come." Gu Qiancheng stopped five steps away from Jing Yan.
This man is really too dangerous, it's better for her to stay away from him.
"I am willing to help you, and I have never thought about asking you to owe me anything." Jing Yan pointed to the room in the ruined temple, "Go in and sit down." After saying that, without waiting for Gu Qiancheng's answer, he walked in first, and Gu Qiancheng
Just have to keep up.
The inner room was also in tatters, and the only intact table and chair were covered with a layer of dust. Jing Yan didn't seem to notice and sat down directly. Gu Qiancheng certainly wouldn't be pretentious and sat across from Jing Yan without being too dirty.
.
The smile on Jing Yan's face deepened a little deeper, but Gu Qiancheng ignored it and just said: "Tell me, why did you come to me?"
"Can't I come to you if I have nothing to do? I thought we were friends with a common secret?" Sometimes Jing Yan couldn't figure out what outrageous things he had done, and why Gu Qiancheng didn't want to see him so much.
You know, he risked being exposed not long ago and did her a big favor. How could he be so cold-blooded?
"I thought that was a handle." Gu Qiancheng said with a mocking look.
Jing Yan didn't take it seriously and said with a smile: "I thought that was also my handle."
"It's a pity that this leverage can't threaten you." Gu Qiancheng rolled his eyes at Jing Yan angrily, and secretly cursed Jing Yan as a fox.
However, it was her fault that she was not careful, and she could not blame Jing Yan entirely.
In order to prepare the test questions, I had to deal with people from Jiangnan, so... Jing Yan, a local snake in Jiangnan, discovered the clues.
Jing Yan did not threaten her with this matter. Not only that, he also directly helped her polish a dozen articles so that she could sell them at a high price.
In other words, most of the top twenty articles in this year's imperial examination were written by Jing Yan, and she only provided the core content.
At that time, she did not refuse Jing Yan's help. In addition to fancying Jing Yan's talent, she also wanted to attract Jing Yan. In this way, even if the two of them were tied together, Gu Qiancheng would not have to worry about Jing Yan betraying him later.
she.
Jing Yan would get involved in this matter at that time, presumably to reassure her. And after such a cooperation, they were inseparable, and they would only have more places to deal with in the future.
Thinking of having to deal with Jing Yan, a fox, in the future, Gu Qiancheng felt depressed and couldn't help but give Jing Yan a few more rolls of his eyes.
Jing Yan smiled indifferently. He had always been tolerant of Gu Qiancheng. Even if Gu Qiancheng pointed at him and yelled at him, he would not take it to heart. What does a few rolls of eyes mean?
Gu Qiancheng was not an unreasonable person. Seeing that Jing Yan was not angry at all, it was hard for him to continue talking. In any case, she had taken advantage of this matter.
Gu Qiancheng calmed down and asked again: "You called me out in the middle of the night. What's the matter?"
Jing Yan knew that Gu Qiancheng had never been patient with him, and he didn't dare to go around in circles. He said obediently: "I just received a message about you."
"What news?" Gu Qiancheng was not curious. At this time, he didn't know what the news about her was about.
"The people under the emperor found out that you were involved in the scientific examination fraud case. They think you did this to retaliate against the fifth prince. The emperor is very unhappy." Although the news Jing Yan received was not complete, Qin Jiyan did not.
Not too different.
"Really?" Gu Qiancheng said nonchalantly.
Jing Yan's eyes showed confusion and he raised his eyebrows and asked, "Aren't you afraid?"
"Why should you be afraid?" No one came to take her away, which meant that the emperor would not take her life, or that the emperor did not know enough about the inside story.
"Are you so sure that he can protect you?" Apart from Qin Jiyan, he has no other person.
"I don't need his protection, the emperor will not take my life now." Gu Qiancheng also took a gamble, and now it seems that she was right.
"Are you so sure that the emperor is reluctant to kill you?"
"I am still useful. What's more, I am also a victim this time. The emperor has no definite evidence to prove that I was the one who did it." Unless the old emperor wanted to kill her secretly, otherwise...
It would be difficult to put her on trial publicly!
