Four hundred and seventieth chapters soft and hard do not eat
Xiao Chengzi asked him once before, but the prince only gave him a perfunctory answer.
Although the master's decision was unquestionable, seeing the prince spending so much energy on Mr. Gu, Xiao Chengzi couldn't bear it anymore.
In his opinion, his master was just too hasty. If Master Gu is capable, he will still have time to make arrangements after he is promoted to fourth or fifth rank.
I have only been in officialdom for a little over a month now, and I don’t know why his prince is so eager.
"You! Otherwise you would just be a slave!" Prince Jing smiled and scolded Xiao Chengzi.
"Yes, yes! Master, you have great ambitions. We are just slaves, how can we imagine so much? I am waiting for you to solve my slave's doubts!"
Xiao Chengzi cursed in her heart, isn't this because you have a good father?
However, he didn't dare to say it.
"Stop picking up those nice words. I still don't know what you are thinking?"
Prince Jing sneered, and then added one or two more strokes to the landscape painting.
"Do you think I don't have to be so anxious?" Prince Jing didn't draw this stroke well and felt that it ruined the whole painting, so he simply threw the pen on the table.
Prince Jing turned around and sat on the chair, took a book, and started reading.
For a long time, Xiao Chengzi thought that the prince would not answer, but Prince Jing's voice happened to ring out again.
"As for the tea tax and salt quotation, I did not hide it from you, you are all aware of it. No matter what Gu Chengyu's rank is, there is no doubt about his ability."
When Xiao Chengzi heard this, he couldn't help but nodded. Master Gu is indeed capable.
"Then if our people get his plan and operate it properly in front of the father, they will definitely get a lot of benefits. Now, it is really a pity to be promoted to a higher level by Gu Chengyu. However, I don't think so.
It’s not just for these things. Gu Chengyu is so capable, if he can be used by this king, wouldn’t it be even more powerful?”
At this moment, Xiao Chengzi had to admire his prince's foresight, but Mr. Gu didn't look like someone who could be easily influenced.
"But my servant, Mr. Gu, is not interested in gold, silver or beauty. If the prince wants to take him under his sect, it will be very difficult."
After hearing this, Prince Jing also shook his head and sighed. If Gu Chengyu was so easy to take the bait, then he wouldn't need to spend so much energy.
"It's a pity that Hua Lian's parents are not here. Gu Changbai is afraid that he won't be able to handle the matter, so he hasn't seen Hua Lian yet."
Prince Jing originally wanted someone to take Hua Lian's mother over, but the woman had remarried and it was really inconvenient to take care of the family.
Gu Changbai didn't have much affection for Hua Lian. He originally wanted to keep Hua Lian until the end.
Unfortunately, someone was faster than him and actually captured Hua Lian.
"Have you found the person who took Hua Lian away?"
Prince Jing suspected that it was Gu Chengyu who took Hua Lian away. If he could guess this just by the appearance of Gu Changbai, Prince Jing would have to admire him.
"Not yet, Your Majesty! According to my opinion, we still have to secure the Gu Mansion. Even if we can't get any useful information, reporting the news in the Gu Mansion to us will allow us to make more guesses and responses."
Prince Jing stood up and walked around the room.
"Why don't I know that it's not easy to get into the Gu Mansion? When the Gu Mansion wants to buy someone next time, you can figure it out!"
"Yes! Then if you ask Gu Changbai to return to Jingyuan Mansion first, will Master Gu not let him come back?"
Prince Jing's lips curled up slightly, "Then it depends on whether he can influence Gu Changqing and the others. If Gu Changqing comes to the capital, it would not be unusual to bring Gu Changbai with him, and it would not be difficult to move into the Gu Mansion."
Don't be too impatient when dealing with Gu Chengyu. Gu Chengyu is too shrewd and won't take either soft or hard advice.
However, Prince Jing has always been patient. Just like Xiao Chengzi said, it's still early! He doesn't believe it, he can't take down Gu Chengyu.
"Well Hua Lian, you'd better send someone to look for it carefully. Just now, we reported that Gu Wanfang went to an appointment with a classmate, but you didn't send anyone to follow him. This Gu Wanfang should be watched carefully. Although he doesn't know much.
, but it’s not that I don’t know anything.”
"Yes!" Xiao Chengzi looked slightly condensed, knowing that the prince also paid great attention to details.
Although he felt that Gu Wanfang did not need to send anyone to follow him, he would not refute the prince's order.
"That child is well fed and well-fed. Master, have you invited me?"
"I've already invited you. Your Majesty is kind, and that child has simply fallen into a lucky nest."
Xiao Chengzi felt that his prince was kind-hearted. He had always felt guilty for catching someone else's child, and he often cared about the child's daily life.
Prince Jing nodded. Those who achieve great things do not stick to trivial matters.
Although he owed Gu Changbai's family, he didn't do anything harsh to the child.
Staying in the house every day, he already felt like he was rotting away.
But he didn't dare to recover from his illness. He was afraid that his father would think of him and send him to a fiefdom.
Being far away from the capital, news came too slowly.
Prince Jing didn't know what he thought of, and his pale face became a little distorted.
"Will the imperial physician come to take a pulse tomorrow?"
Xiao Chengzi was shocked and quickly replied: "Exactly!"
"Go and talk to the miracle doctor. He knows what to do."
Prince Jing's voice sounded leisurely, and Xiao Chengzi trembled and hurriedly responded.
Gu Chengyu sent Gu Changbai away and then walked towards the inner courtyard.
"Sir! We are inside, very peaceful!" Ming Yan was waiting at the entrance of the courtyard. When he saw Gu Chengyu coming, he hurriedly greeted him.
"Well!" Gu Chengyu entered the courtyard, followed closely by Ming Yan.
"Sir!" Li Zhuang saluted Gu Chengyu with several guards.
Gu Chengyu waved his hand, and a few people stood outside the door. They knew that Gu Chengyu was going to ask questions, so they should naturally avoid it.
They just do what the adults tell them, and as for other things, it is better for them to know less.
Gu Wanfang was feeling uneasy in the house. It had been almost four hours since he was kidnapped, but his uncle hadn't come yet.
In fact, he also knew the purpose of his uncle's search for him, so when he was taken to the Gu Mansion, he didn't resist at all.
The door was opened, and seeing Gu Chengyu walking in, Gu Wanfang quickly stood up and saluted Gu Chengyu.
"I've met my uncle!" He played a trick and didn't call him uncle.
Gu Chengyu walked up to the table and sat down. She raised her eyebrows and her thoughts were a little lively.
If you have a wink and your heart is not bad, it is not impossible to pull it out.
The Gu family cannot be supported by him alone, there must be someone who can help.
"Sit down!" Seeing Gu Wanfang standing a little reserved, Gu Chengyu pointed to the chair and asked him to sit down.
"I'm sure you know why I invited you here. What kind of difficulties does your family encounter? Just tell me, we are all a family, and I won't be stingy if I can help."
Gu Wanfang is a human being. If he said this, Gu Wanfang should be able to understand what he meant.
Gu Wanfang was a little hesitant. He didn't know whether he should say it or not.
The master repeatedly told him not to reveal it to others, otherwise Xiaoyao would not be able to come back.
