Chapter 53:

Gu Zezhi raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, and asked Qin Zeyu: "How would the second girl Qin know?"
Qin Zeyu shook his head.
At that time, when he invited his grandmother out, he saw Qin Xin in the small garden. He originally planned to go to Qin Xindao alone, and then asked her if she thought of him as a younger brother.
But in the end, he still didn't talk to Qin Xin, he just heard such an ear while hesitating.
Qin Zeyu said: "I always think that the second sister is quite amazing... Zhiwei sees it." This idiom should say so?
"How do you say?" Gu Zezhi asked.
With a smile on his lips, his expression was gentle, and the way he faced Qin Zeyu did not make Qin Zeyu feel how childish what he said.
Qin Zeyu's interest came and he kept saying: "The second year ago, the second sister helped the second aunt’s housekeeper and persuaded the second aunt to buy more rice, but the second aunt didn’t listen. Later, the Huaizhou flood, the price of the rice that year It has more than doubled, and the market is priceless. My second aunt regrets her death."
"There is also the year before the first year ago. The second sister said that Li Renyu, the right servant of the staff, was afraid that he was going to collapse. As a result, Li Renyu and his family were sentenced to exile in Lingnan!"
"There's more..."
Qin Jiao: "..."
This rebirth girl really didn't waste her rebirth advantage!
They walked all the way back, Qin Zeyu said all the way, just as gossiping with the good people in his mind, Gu Zezhi's lips were smiling, but the narrow eyes became more and more serious.
Qin Zeyu is only a half-year-old child, but what he said sounded no joke.
The second girl from the Qin family was a bit weird.
If she is really "unexplored prophet" in everything, then, in a few days, will there really be Blizzard?
This is kind of interesting.
Qin Zeyu kept twittering like a little sparrow all the way, and the more he talked, the more he felt that the future brother-in-law was really good tempered, but it was a pity that his eyes were not so good.
However, he couldn't laugh anymore soon, and halfway through, they met Qin Zening.
After Qin Zening got the news, he went into the hunting ground to look for someone. When he saw that his brother was safe, he was relieved at first, followed the anger, and went up to give Qin Zeyu a good training.
Qin Zeyu could only be trained obediently. When they walked out of the hunting ground, Qin Zening finally stopped. He didn't know if he had been addicted to cursing or wanted to save him some face in front of his friends.
The bear children who were waiting near the hunting platform immediately swarmed over.
"Qin Zeyu, are you okay?!"
"You haven't been bitten by a big bug?"
"I don't think he has any wounds on his body, he shouldn't be bitten by a tiger... Qin Wu, did your sister beat you?"
"..."
These bear children were unscrupulous, and even if Qin Jiao was nearby, they asked directly.
Qin Jiu: "..." Her younger brother really owed a fight!
Gu Zezhi put his right fist on his lips. He didn't smile. For some reason, Qin Jiao felt that he heard a soft laugh.
"You guys, all of you are struggling here, none of you are allowed to go back." Gu Zezhi said lightly.
All the bear kids, including Qin Zeyu, were stunned. They straightened their backs and stood up quickly, and after that they all squatted down to take their horses.
Qin Zening also knew a little bit about these bear children who had been close to Qin Zeyu. Seeing that they were all obedient to Shang Gu Zezhi, he raised an eyebrow in surprise.
Qin Jiao raised his head and looked at the sky. Now it is near Shenshi, it's already this hour, and it will be impossible to go to Linpu Town.
Her disappointment was naturally revealed between her eyebrows and her eyes. Gu Zezhi looked at it and said warmly, "Let's go to see Baixi again tomorrow."
Qin Jiu nodded hurriedly, pursing his lips and smiling.
Gu Zezhi smiled at her again, and his handsome face became softer with this smile, gentle and elegant like a spring breeze, especially beautiful, even Qin Jiao felt that he was accidentally dazzled.
Qin Zening squinted at the two men back and forth with a complex expression.
He thinks that Gu Zezhi's hand-linked arrow is very beautiful, but this does not mean that Gu Zezhi is qualified to marry his sister! No, my sister just recognized it. Two years...no, within five years, I won’t marry!
Gu Zezhi adjusted Qin Jiu's cloak, and said with a smile: "I'm leaving now."
Qin Zeyu, who was struggling behind, and a few friends, their eyes lit up.
These young people are not very old, and they are not the eldest sons at home. They are mostly spoiled to grow up. How can they experience this pain during the week? After this horse stepping for a while, the legs and feet are sore, and the foreheads have also leaked. Sweat bead.
Qin Jiao smiled and said, "I'll help you watch them!" As she said, she cheerfully took out her riding whip and threw it on purpose.
Qin Zeyu's face almost didn't collapse, and he felt that his sister was indeed his nemesis!
The other teenagers hurriedly gave Qin Zeyu glances, meaning that he should quickly intercede with his sister.
The corner of Qin Zeyu's eyes twitched, and that would have to be useful. He silently adjusted his squatting posture, feeling that the that had just been pumped by his sister was still hurting.
He silently looked at the back of Gu Zezhi's departure, hoping that Gu Zezhi could turn around and intercede with him.
Unfortunately, until Gu Zezhi's back disappeared at the entrance of the hunting palace, he did not look back.
Gu Zezhi led the white horse to the stable and made a gesture, so an ordinary-looking man in Tsing Yi walked out from behind the stable.
Gu Zezhi: "Go and stare at Gu Jing." If Gu Jing really believes that there will be Blizzard, it should start moving these two days.
The man in Tsing Yi led the way and withdrew.
The next day, Gu Zezhi brought Qin Jiu back from watching the operas in Linpu Town and got a response.
So he went to Yong'an Palace leisurely and asked to see the emperor.
The great Zhou Xin personally greeted him, and said with a smile: "Gu San Gongzi, His Highness the Second Prince is facing the saint."
Gu Zezhi just laughed and didn't comment. When he walked outside the curtain, he heard Gu Jing's voice from inside: "Father, the weather has been getting colder these days. My son thought it was better to get up and drive back to Beijing as soon as possible..."
A small servant draped a curtain for Gu Zezhi, and Gu Zezhi walked in.
Gu Jing also saw Gu Zezhi and pressed her lips slightly. He hesitated, not knowing whether to continue talking or wait until Gu Zezhi left.
But the emperor motioned him to continue with his eyes.
Gu Jing could only continue to say: "Father, my son, the weather is not quite right recently, the temperature has changed drastically, and the wind is raging at night, so I deliberately asked the people in the nearby Linpu Town and read the county annals. Now, there will be blizzards in this area almost every ten years. Before the blizzard, the weather is often very cold, continuous cloudy, raging winds, ants and insects relocate. The weather changes in the past few days have just verified the concerns of the children."
"Erchen asked Qin Tianjian to watch the sky last night, and Qin Tianjian also said that there may be heavy snow in the last few days, but the date is uncertain."
As Gu Jing said, he carefully observed the emperor's expression.
He also knows that his close relationship with Yeluluan will make his father unhappy. This is the key to turning his image in front of his father. He must make his father feel that he is doing things right and not doing things right. Yeluluan is not stupid, nor is it for personal selfishness, but for the overall situation of Qi.
The emperor slowly turned the white jade carving auspicious dragon jade fingers in his hand, showing a cautious look.
Before a cup of tea, Gu Jing came to see herself. The first sentence was that there was a fear of Blizzard in this area. The emperor's first reaction was not to believe it.
However, Gu Jing was justified and well-founded, and obviously not on the spur of the moment. He asked Qin Tianjian, the local people, and checked the county annals, which was quite deliberate.
The emperor still knew a little bit about this son, he was ambitious, but he was still able to do things, and he was a little clever.
One year, Li Renyu, the servant of the staff, moved to a new home in Beijing. Many officials gave gifts of housewarming. Gu Jing could see from this that the servant of the staff of the staff was accepting bribes. At that time, the emperor asked Gu Jing how he knew it. Speaking of the housing prices in various parts of Beijing, and also of Li Renyu’s salary and Mrs. Li’s dowry, with the Li family’s wealth, if you don’t follow the crooked ways, I am afraid that you will not be able to afford the new home in Beijing for several lifetimes. .
After a thorough investigation by Dali Temple, Li Renyu was indeed embezzling and accepting bribes.
Gu Jing could see the emperor’s intentions moved, and he was happy, and then said: "Father, my son thinks you and your mother should return to Beijing as soon as possible, lest you encounter a blizzard and hinder the holy driving."
The emperor still did not speak, as if thinking about it.
Gu Jing was even more happy, he could still tell that the father was still satisfied with him. Perhaps the father may not fully believe that there will be Blizzard in these few days, but at least knowing that he is doing real things will change him somewhat.
It doesn't matter whether the saint drives or does not leave. After a few days when Blizzard arrives as Qin Xin said, the father will recognize him more and more, think he is cautious, and think he is thoughtful.
Gu Jing believes Qin Xin's words, Qin Xin's predictive dreams have never gone wrong, as before, and this time will be no exception.
With Qin Xin's help, he will surely be even more powerful, making his father completely change his view of himself and let his father understand his abilities.
Compared with the six emperors who are still breastfeeding, he is more suitable to be your king!
The emperor suddenly looked at Gu Zezhi who was aside, and asked, "Zezhi, what do you think?"
Gu Jing's eyes flashed, she curled her lips mockingly, and pressed her down calmly.
Gu Zezhi was a narrow-minded person and would definitely refute his proposal. Unfortunately, this time Gu Zezhi was afraid that he would be self-defeating.
Gu Jing suddenly felt a little looking forward to it. Perhaps because of this incident, his father would be unhappy with Gu Zezhi's birth...
As he was thinking about it, he heard Gu Zezhi’s gentle voice in his ear: "The emperor, since the second prince has checked so much, it must be possible for Blizzard. As the saying goes, don’t be afraid of ten thousand, but ten thousand. First, to be cautious, it is better to leave for Beijing as soon as possible."
Gu Jing: "???"
Gu Jing couldn't help but looked at Gu Zezhi, his expression could not hide his surprise.
Gu Zezhi didn't take care of Gu Jing at all, and proposed to the emperor: "The emperor, it is better to call Xiao Wei."
The emperor raised his eyebrows in surprise, thought for a while, and let the servant go to Xuan Gu Ju.
Gu Jing was even more surprised. He looked at Gu Zezhi unclearly, not knowing what medicine he was selling in the gourd, and what he could do if a five-year-old child came over.
Gu Jing felt that Gu Zezhi was really a bit difficult to deal with, and his eyes were dark and he planned to watch the changes first.
The emperor gave a seat to the two of them, and an in-house attendant served tea to Gu Zezhi and Gu Jing.
The emperor smiled and went gossiping with Gu Zezhi, and asked what he had gained in the past few days, Gu Zezhi said in a few words about the bear children sneaking into the hunting ground.
Hearing that some bear children were punished for sprinting, the emperor laughed, and Long Yan joyously said, "These children, deserve the punishment!"
While talking, a little servant led the Sixth Prince Gu Yu.
Gu Wei was young and afraid of the cold. He wore a thick coat. The white mink fur on the neckline made his face round and cute.
He met the emperor, Gu Zezhi and Gu Jing solemnly.
After Gu Ju sat down, Gu Zezhi smiled and asked, "Xiao Ju, there will be Blizzard in the hunting palace for more than a dozen miles. What do you think?"
Gu Jing opened her eyes slightly in surprise, and when she guessed something, her eyes suddenly turned dark.
The emperor was also a little surprised, but didn't interrupt.
Gu Jing glanced at the emperor quickly, her face was as steady as a mountain, and she was silent.
Gu Yu was young and his voice was milky and milky, and asked: "Uncle Ze, are there any villages and towns nearby?"
He went to play with his cousin Jiu early this morning. Du Ruo said that cousin Jiu went to the nearby town to watch a hundred operas.
"If there was Blizzard, would the people nearby be frozen?" He frowned deeply, his little face worried.
The emperor was stunned again, looking back and forth thoughtfully at Gu Yu and Gu Jing.
He originally thought that Gu Jing was serious and rigorous, but now he compares Gu Jing with him.
His Yu'er has a pure heart!
The emperor's eyes flickered slightly, watching Gu Yu's expression softer, nodded and said: "Yes. Even the blizzard has damaged houses, Yuer, what do you think should be done?"
"Break the house?" Gu Ju tilted his head and thought again, "Father, the people nearby should be dismissed as soon as possible and moved to a warmer place."
"Father, people are afraid of the cold, crops and cattle and sheep are also afraid, then should the court help arrange those crops, cattle and sheep?"
Although Gu Yu spoke with a bit of whimsical whimsical words, he could hear that he had carefully pondered it, and he was personally thinking about the people.
The smile on the emperor's face deepened, and he didn't point out where Gu Ju was wrong. He smiled and nodded again and again, with a little bit of relief. The queen taught their Zi'er very well, with Li Min in her heart, so Fang is Mingjun.
Gu Jing couldn't stretch anymore, her face changed, and her fists could not help being clenched together.
This was supposed to be his own credit, but Gu Zezhi arrogantly helped Gu Ju grab the credit in front of him!
Gu Jing couldn't help but think of Qin Jiu again. Gu Zezhi obviously fell in love with Qin Jiu, and Qin Jiu is the queen's niece, so is Gu Zezhi planning to help Gu Ji now? !
Gu Jing took a few deep breaths, and soon calmed down again, looking at nothing.
At this time, Gu Yu also finished speaking.
The emperor smiled with joy and praised: "Yuan'er has grown up and can share the worries for his father!"
Gu Yi smiled more innocently, took the warm tea from the waiter, and took two sips contentedly.
Gu Jing continued the emperor’s words and couldn’t wait to say:
Father, this disaster relief matter can be handed over to the local officials. It’s freezing cold. It’s better for you to return to Beijing as soon as possible to avoid being trapped by Blizzard in the hunting palace or On the way."
"Brother Second Emperor, the hunting palace is so big, even if we are trapped for a while, we are fine. But the people are different. Father often said that the people depend on heaven for food." Gu Ju retorted very seriously, "If it is true. If there is a snow disaster, they may not survive."
His words are a bit naive, but they come from the heart, simple and sincere.
The emperor looked at Gu Ju with a smile, with a deeper smile on his face, and praised: "Yuan'er is still thoughtful."
This winter hunting trip is well prepared. There is nothing to eat and use in this hunting palace. Even if you are trapped here for a month or two, there will be no problems, and there is limited travel. But the people are different.
If there is a blizzard, the blizzard may damage houses and freeze crops, cattle, sheep and poultry. Since ancient times, there have been many poor people who have survived the cold winter.
Gu Jing saw the emperor's bias, and he became even more anxious, and said hurriedly: "Father, if the holy driver is trapped here, what will happen to the central government?"
"Father, you are the backbone of this world, please think twice!"
Gu Jing hated Gu Zezhi even more. He could have used this to please his father, but now he is disturbed by Gu Zezhi.
"The emperor," Gu Zezhi calmly said again, "Shengjia goes back to Beijing first, and it is all about keeping people here to deal with the snow disaster."
When the emperor heard this, he couldn't help laughing. Also, he was distracted by the words of Gu Jing and Gu Wei, and he almost wanted to go wrong.
Gu Jing's eyes lit up, who was somewhat frustrated, and immediately saw the opportunity from Gu Zezhi's words.
He rushed to ask and said: "Also ask the emperor to let the children stay and preside over the overall situation!"
This is something he can do, but how five-year-old Gu Yu can't do it!
Moreover, if he can manage this matter well, whether it is in the DPRK or among the people, it will be of great prestige, especially in the court, and those courtiers will know that he can already participate in politics.
Not only that, but Blizzard’s incident was a clue he had seen beforehand, and his father would also see his ability.
This is a great opportunity, one must not be missed.
In order to persuade the emperor, Gu Jing continued to add a bargaining chip to herself: "Father, the sons and ministers have deliberately visited Linpu Town a few days ago to check the county records for nearly 30 years, and also visited the town together with the county magistrate. People’s sentiments can be considered quite a bit understood, and this matter will be handled properly."
The emperor didn't speak for a long time, then turned the jade finger on his thumb.
When Gu Jing finished speaking, the emperor looked at Gu Zezhi again with a smile, and asked, "Zezhi, what do you think?"
The emperor became more and more satisfied with Gu Zezhi, especially compared to his elder brother Gu Chenzhi...
Gu Zezhi thought for a while and suggested: "The minister remembers that Liu Shijing, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, is good at practical work. He has been in Jiangnan twice to treat floods and has been very effective. He is from Liaozhou. There is a lot of snow in Liaozhou. There should be a bit of experience in such things."
"Okay, just Liu Shijing!" The emperor also felt that Gu Zezhi's words were reasonable, and said with a smile, "Zezhi, you stay too."
Gu Zezhi stood up, took his order, and then proposed: "The emperor, how about letting Xiao Wei stay?"
"..." Gu Jing couldn't intervene at all. He didn't expect things to develop completely in a direction other than what he expected.
The emperor was startled by Gu Zezhi's proposal again, and subconsciously moved towards Gu Ju who was eating a snack on the side, and couldn't help wondering if Gu Zezhi had forgotten that Gu Ju was only five years old.
emperor:"……"
Gu Zezhi could naturally see what the emperor was thinking, and said with a smile: "The emperor, let him see it."
Gu Ju looked at the emperor expectantly, his black and white eyes were shining, filled with longing, and he just said let him stay.
The emperor just looked at Gu Ju in this way, and he felt soft-hearted, and then thought about it again: Yes, instead of letting Gu Ju keep reading, it's better to read more. Although he is young, he will remember some of the things he has seen and heard with his own eyes.
"Zezhi, you have to look a little bit more."
The implied meaning of the emperor's words is true.
Gu Yu blinked, and couldn't help but prove: "Father, can I stay here?"
The emperor was amused by his surprise look, and nodded: "Do you want to stay?"
"Yes!" Gu Ju nodded vigorously.
Seeing the emperor's filial piety with his father, Gu Jing, Gu Jing's heart sank little by little, and his heart felt a little chilly.
This Gu Ze's matter was right with him. If this really allowed him to be the crown prince, doesn't it mean that Gu Ze has another powerful help? !
Gu Jing settled down and recommended herself again: "Father and sons and ministers can stay, and they can help take care of the Six Emperor Brothers."
As long as he can stay, he still has the opportunity to make merit. As long as the Manchu civil and military officials see his merits, the emperor cannot obliterate his merits.
however--
"No need." The emperor vetoed it without hesitation, and said in an unquestionable tone, "You follow me back to Beijing."
"Father!" Gu Jing's face was pale, as if he was slapped on the spot.
He was completely rejected from this matter. Then he spent so much thought, wouldn't it be equivalent to making wedding clothes for others? !
The emperor raised his hand and made a gesture, indicating that he didn't need to say any more.
Gu Jing could only close her mouth, her thin lips pressed into a straight line.
The emperor didn't look at him anymore, and directly ordered: "Zhou Xin, give me an oral order, and drive back to Beijing three days later."
So, on the same day, the hunting palace heard the news.
According to the usual practice in previous years, the holy driver should stay in the hunting palace at least until the 21st of this month. Now so many days in advance, everyone will inevitably have some private discussions in private, but no one dares to ask the emperor. Started packing up.
The emperor’s oral statement did not mention Blizzard, but it was only a few hours before the hunting palace was known to everyone in the hunting palace. It was the second prince who checked the county records. It is speculated that there will be a Blizzard recently. Only then did the emperor decide to drive back to the palace and order Liu Shijing and Gu Zezhi and the Sixth Prince stayed to preside over the overall situation.
Therefore, someone immediately suggested that the sixth prince was young, but it was not appropriate to stay in the hunting palace to preside over the overall situation in the year when the six princes were young.
But immediately afterwards, many clan families and honoraries also raised the issue.
For a while, the original peace in the hunting palace no longer existed, and it suddenly broke.
Several clan princesses rushed to find Queen Wei, trying to get Queen Wei to persuade the emperor, but Queen Wei listened gently and gently, but didn't say a word, just as she didn't hear it.
Queen Wei's heart was not as calm as she was showing. Gu Ju was only five years old. This was the first time he had left him.
In contrast, Gu Yu was not worried at all and was eager to try.
Queen Wei is not someone who does not know what is good or what is wrong. She knows that Gu Zezhi proposed to keep Gu Ju in the hunting palace for Gu Ju's good.
Gu Jing is a prince who is about to reach adulthood, and Gu Bi is only a child. Although he is a son, but the dynasty is more concerned about the ability to have the upper hand, and the country does not establish a young lord, it is not easy for Gu Wei to come from behind.
