Vol 2 Chapter 821: Hands stretched too long (16th more)

Jingcheng Street is crowded.
The carriage moved slowly.
Lord Li was not in a hurry. Taking advantage of this time, he had to sort out his thoughts and try to persuade Emperor Wen De to adopt his political views.
咚咚咚...
The wall of the carriage was knocked.
Master Li was stunned, opened the car window and looked out.
The two carriages are staggered side by side.
Gu Jiu looked at Master Li with a pair of eyes through the car window.
"Mrs. Zhao?"
Gu Jiu smiled and nodded, "Long time no see."
"Why is Madam Zhao here?"
"Especially to see the lord."
Lord Li frowned, "I'm afraid it will be inconvenient at this time."
Cang Dang!
As soon as the voice fell, the carriage stopped suddenly.
Master Li was taken aback.
Gu Jiu pursed his lips and smiled, "It seems that there is a traffic jam in front of me and I can't go temporarily. Lord Li, you might be interested to talk about it."
"Where to talk."
"Just talk about it here."
The two were separated by a carriage.
Master Li stretched out his head and looked left and right, only to find that the surrounding people seemed to be coming and going, but they were actually surrounded by guards, forming a private space.
Of course, traffic jams are also real traffic jams.
It's just that why this car is blocked is worth thinking about.
He settled, "What does Madam want to talk about?"
Gu Jiu asked softly: "My lord is going to see your majesty, how do you plan to convince your majesty to use you?"
"It doesn't work, my wife is worried, the old man has his own way."
Gu Jiu said with a smile: "My lord might as well listen to my opinion, how about?"
"Madam, please speak."
"The National Teacher of Xiliang Country is from the Great Zhou Dynasty."
"What?" Master Li jumped up and banged his head against the roof of the carport.
Regardless of the headache, he asked eagerly: "Is this true?"
Gu Jiu nodded, "It's true."
After speaking, he stretched out his hand and handed out a document, "This is a model, brought back from Xiliang by the caravan. I want to come here to be useful to Master Li."
Master Li couldn't wait to open the document, the upper part was Xiliang text, and the lower part was the translation.
This is a copy of the edict content of the Xiliang King's canonization.
"Xiliang National Teacher turned out to be from the Great Zhou Dynasty?"
Lord Li was shocked.
He couldn't help but look at Gu Jiu, a bold guess in his heart.
Could it be that Xiliang Guoshi would be the person arranged by Madam Zhao.
Could it be that she and Liu Zhao had been planning all this several years ago?
Shook his head.
how can that be.
No matter how long Madam Zhao's hand is, it is impossible to reach Xiliang Country.
but……
This is not necessarily true.
What if it is true?
After all, Madam Zhao has created a lot of miracles, and has done what many others say is impossible.
just……
Still unbelievable.
After Gu Jiu waited for Master Li to digest the news, he said: "In recent years, the Northwest Army has made a lot of money by doing trade with Xiliang. Master Li should have heard of this. What Master Li didn't know was, The number Luhou reported to the court was obviously underreported."
Master Li grasped the key point, "How much is missing?"
Gu Jiu smiled mysteriously, "Master Li can make bold guesses."
Guess?
How bold is a bold guess?
Many questions arose in Lord Li's mind.
"Shhh!"
Gu Jiu stretched out his finger and gently placed it to his mouth, "Master Li does not need to doubt this lady's intentions, you only need to remember that this lady will stand by your side and will do all you can to help you get to the top. In the future, Master Li will go. In the northwest, this lady still has a big gift to give."
Lord Li calmed down, "The old man has only one problem."
"My lord, please."
"Madam's purpose."
Gu Jiu raised his head to look at the sky, then looked down at the ground, and smiled softly, "Why do you ask me knowingly."
The traffic jam ended and the carriage restarted.
Two carriages passed by.
Master Li was greatly shaken, and was stunned on the carriage, unable to move for a long time.
She actually admitted.
She didn't even have a word of excuse, but admitted it openly.
Lord Li couldn't tell exactly what kind of mood he was at the moment.
Mrs. Zhao's shock to him was obviously far greater than that of the eldest prince Liu Zhao.
As a prince, Liu Zhao's words and deeds can be easily guessed. No matter how arrogant and ambitious, Master Li will not be surprised.
Madam Zhao, with a smile on her face, said in a gentle and gentle way, "Why do adults ask knowingly", which shocked him more than ten Liu Zhao.
She is obviously a weak woman, why is there such a powerful force?
Until the gate of the palace, Li Da was awake from the shock that Gu Jiu gave him.
He took a deep breath and looked at the towering palace, full of pride in his heart.
Since Madam Zhao gave him the opportunity, how could he not grasp it firmly.
As for her purpose, Lord Li didn't care.
In this world, someone must inherit.
To whom is not to.
It is better to inherit to Liu Zhao than other princes.
Compared to other people's rhetoric, there is no guarantee of content. Lord Li came with real materials and had already won.
Xiliang Guoshi was from the Great Zhou Dynasty. When the news came out, Emperor Wende and Master Lu were shocked.
Lu Hou concealed trade quotas and saved money, which is worthy of vigilance.
Master Li, who possesses ‘real materials’, coupled with some conversation skills, naturally gained the respect of Emperor Wen De.
Master Li entered the palace this time and successfully completed the task.
A few days later, Emperor Wen De decreed to use Lord Li. He was formally appointed as the governor of the northwest, and he set off on the same day to form the governor of the northwest. Northwest personnel scheduling can be cut first and then played.
The power is staggering.
The courtiers were very sad.
They had tried so hard to recommend talents, but his Majesty didn't even look at it. Instead, he used Li Bingming, who had already retired to his official position.
Older gingers are more spicy.
Even if they were not convinced, courtiers had to admit that Li Bingming was the right governor of the Northwest.
The old fox and Xinhei Luhou fight each other, and I don't know who will win.
I really hope that both lose out.
The thoughts of courtiers are so gloomy.
...
Lord Li finally became an adult again.
After being officially appointed, he is still very humble in front of others.
For those who come to congratulate, they must say something about being loyal to the emperor and serving the country.
Only in front of Sanyuangong Yang Yuanqing, Lord Li made a fierce show.
"What did the old man say? The old man said that the governor of the Northwest is none other than me. Brother Yang, are you convinced?"
Sanyuangong Yang Yuanqing was very disgusted, and said unwillingly, "Congratulations to Brother Li for his smooth recovery. The old man hopes that Brother Li can successfully reach the northwest and return to the capital safely."
Master Li snorted coldly, "Others are afraid of Luhou, and the old man is not afraid of him. The old man is irritated, and the old man directly gives him a salary."
Sanyuangong Yang Yuanqing laughed: You blow, you can blow. The old man will never interrupt you.
Lord Li didn't care about San Yuan Gong's attitude.
He has seen a worse attitude than him.
He slapped San Yuan Gong on the shoulder and almost broke San Yuan Gong.
"Brother Yang, do you need the old man to arrange a position for you in the Metropolitan Government?"
"Thank you Brother Li for your kindness, I am not an official. Teaching is more suitable for me."
"That said. You are only suitable for teaching."
Sanyuangong rolled his eyes secretly, and repeatedly warned himself: not angry, not angry. Disagreement with Li Bingming.
Lord Li successfully angered San Yuan Gong, very proud.
He laughed and left.
Angrily, San Yuan Gong kicked over a stool.
Go to his restraint.
You should not be polite when dealing with people like Li Bingming.
...
Among the many gifts given to Master Li, there was an unremarkable one.
A letter.
Lord Li couldn't put it down.
"Who wrote this manuscript?"
The butler shook his head, there was nothing on the gift list.
Master Li asked again: "Who will send this gift?"
The butler turned over the gift list, "This gift was sent by Madam Zhao."
Master Li was stunned, picked up the gift list and looked at it repeatedly, and it was indeed sent by Mrs. Zhao.
He took a deep breath, "Sneak to Xiaozhu and give Madam Zhao a greeting. The old man wants to see her."
"If Madam Zhao refuses to see the master, what should I do?"
Master Li kicked it over, "If you ask you to send the greeting card, please send it as soon as possible. There is so much nonsense."
The housekeeper is the older he is, the less clever he is, and he talks more and more.
The old servants of decades have become accustomed to using them, and they are reluctant to replace them.
Gu Jiu accepted Li's greeting card.
Change the meeting place to Shanhe Academy.
Lord Li has no objection, "Shanhe Academy is the Shanhe Academy, at least it is safe and will not attract people's attention."
...
Shanhe College Houshan Bieyuan.
Here are the few buildings that are not open to the outside world in the academy. Far away from the teaching area.
On weekdays, some students are curious and try to get in over the wall.
Often before they climbed up the wall, they were scared away by the big dog in the yard.
Knowing that there are big dogs in Houshan, they are extremely fierce, and there are fewer and fewer students who come to the Houshan courtyard.
Today, the big dog is very well-behaved.
No matter how Brother Heng rubbed its head, he obediently lay on the ground without moving, playing with Brother Heng.
Occasionally glance at Brother Heng, it seems that he dislikes how Brother Heng likes Maomao so much.
Brother Yu was sitting on the carpet with a book, accompanied by the big dog.
The scene is very warm.
The flower hall on the first floor, the fragrance of tea is far away.
Lord Li was invited into the Flower Hall and sat on the ground.
The tea maker is not a charming maid, but a young boy.
Also accompanied by the sound of piano.
Gu Jiu came out of the house, "My lord is here, I'm really on time today."
Master Li coughed slightly and glanced at the young man cooking tea a few more times, "This is?"
Gu Jiu said softly: "Students from the academy, admire the adults, I will allow him to listen."
Master Li couldn't help but frown.
Chen Zhuangshi has a low eyebrow, "Mr. doesn't know the students, but the students admired him for a long time."
Oh!
Lord Li was noncommittal.
Gu Jiu asked with a smile, "Mr. is satisfied with my gift."
Master Li converged his mind and asked eagerly: "Who wrote that copy of the letter."
Gu Jiu didn't sell Guanzi, "It's far in the sky, right in front of you."
Master Li was stunned, his eyes turned to Chen Zhuangshi, "Did you write?"
"Exactly!"
Master Li sat up straight, "Have you been to the Northwest?"
"Return to Sir, I have been there."
"Have you been to Xiliang?"
Chen Zhuangshi nodded, "Students have not only been to Xiliang, they have also seen Xiliang Guoshi."
"what!"
Master Li exclaimed.
Could his previous guess be true?
Xiliang Guoshi, is it really related to Gu Jiu?
Gu Jiu's hand stretched too long.
