Seventy percent! This is simply opening the lion's mouth!
Qin Zhunqiang resisted the urge to scold others, settled down, and said to Gu Zezhi in a good voice, "What is wrong with Gu San Gongzi? Only 70% of the house can be divided into a house. That is the ancestral system of the Qin family. The patriarch and several uncles also know about it."
He deliberately placed an accent on the two words "ancestral system", emphasizing that the Qin family's ancestors and ancestors have been divided in this way from generation to generation, and Gu Zezhi has no choice but to make any comments.
"Master Hou, is this the only property of the Qin family?" Gu Zezhi smiled, with a slight smile on the corners of his lips, a gentle gentleman, gentle and moist.
"Of course." Qin Zhun answered without hesitation.
"It seems more than that?"
Gu Zezhi glanced lightly at the account book placed on the mahogany case. The smile on his face was deeper, only to say that it was a fake account.
Qin Zhun’s complexion was slightly stiff, and his heart was very angry. Qin Zening, Qin Jiu, and Gu Zezhi, did these one treat him as a sick cat? !
The patriarchs and elders of the Qin family also heard Gu Zezhi's illocutionary meaning, and looked at each other. One of the patriarchs asked politely: "Does Gu San Gongzi have evidence to say that?"
Gu Zezhi said unhurriedly: "Fourteen years ago, the file when the Hou Mansion ransacked the house should still be there. Why don't I go to Dali Temple and borrow this file for comparison? What do you think?"
"Back then, after the Qin family was rehabilitated, they returned to Beijing and took back the Hou Mansion's property. Over the past ten years, even if the Hou Mansion has spent a lot of money, it will not be so different."
Gu Zezhi talked freely and seemed to know the Houfu's industry well.
"If you have to divide the family according to this account book, it is fair to ask Lord Hou to divide 70% to the long room." During the words, Gu Zezhi's face was a little more gentle, but the content of the words was Very sharp.
Qin Jiu almost applauded Gu Zezhi, she also forgot to continue crying, holding the veil with interest, and staring at Gu Zezhi with scorching eyes.
Qin Zhun's eyes grew darker, and he took a deep breath, and said helplessly: "Gu San Gongzi didn't know something. After the house was ransacked back then, although everything came back later, it was a little wasted after all..."
"Waste?" Gu Zezhi interrupted Qin Zhun with a smile, "Master Hou means that someone is corrupt and greedy of the Qin family's property? Then you have to know the emperor and investigate it carefully."
"This Hou did not mean this." Qin Zhun quickly denied it with sweat, "It's just that it's been ten years, so many people in the Hou Mansion are also useful, how can they be counted as before!"
"Since it is useful, these farm shops should also be profitable." Gu Zezhi looked at Qin Zening with a slight jaw, and graciously persuaded him: "Zening, according to my intentions, the gains over the years Don't worry about Lord Hou.
Qin Zening also heard the signs, and sang with one of Gu Ze and said: "Just as the third son of Gu said. We don’t want the surplus in these years, just treat it as the long house. How about the food and clothing of the Hou Mansion?"
Qin Zhun was about to laugh with anger. Gu Zezhi was about to take up 70% of the Houfu's industry. He also said that he was taking advantage of them. This face is really thick! !
Qin Zhun took a deep breath, pointed at the box account book and said with a smirk: "The account books are all here. If Young Master Gu has any doubts, he can tell his own account."
Gu Zezhi stood up, picked up the general ledger on the mahogany case, flipped through a few pages at will, and seemed to mutter to himself: "It turns out that the Hou Mansion's industry also involves sea trade. I heard that sea trade depends on luck. , If you are caught in a storm at sea and capsize the ship, you will lose your money!"
Qin Zhun's face turned pale, and in an instant, a thought came to his mind: Why did Gu Zezhi mention Haimao?
Gu Zezhi is deceiving himself, or...
Qin Zhun's heart was raised little by little.
At this time, Gu Zezhi glanced at Qin Zhun, his clear eyes seemed to have insight into everything, and he sighed sighfully: "It's okay to split the family earlier, let Hou Ye take care of this, sooner or later, the Hou Mansion’s family business... …Hey!"
He deliberately hid a sentence without saying, but anyone could tell that he was saying that sooner or later Qin's family business was defeated by Qin Zhun.
Qin Zhun stared at Gu Zezhi deeply and wanted to ask how much he knew, but in the end he resisted the impulse.
If he really knew, this account would not be able to withstand investigation...
At this time, Gu Zezhi closed the ledger, looked at the two boxes of account books, and asked, "Master Hou, which of these two boxes of account books are Haimao's account books?"
Qin Zhun's heart jumped again, gritted his teeth and said, "Sir Gu, I have thought about it carefully, and you are right. This title should have belonged to the eldest brother, but now I am a title, and the long room has no father or mother. It's really difficult to stand on its own, and it's okay to divide more property..."
After a pause, he said with a heartache: "70% should be given to the long room."
"Master Hou, no!"
Su Clan was going crazy, Huo Di stood up. How can you divide it like this? ! Did Master Hou have something wrong with Gu Ze? !
The patriarch and the elders immediately glanced at the Su clan in unison, frowning slightly.
Family separation is a man's matter. Qin Zhun is born here. He is the head of the family. There is no reason for the Su family to oppose the clamor!
Although they also felt that it was inappropriate to divide the family in this way, just imagine, if the division was so done this time, wouldn't the ancestral rules of the Qin family be like nothing? ! Every room is thinking about dividing it a little bit more, it's a mess in the clan! Rules are rules, no rules can't be round!
Qin Zhun glared at Su Clan warningly, gritted his teeth and said: "Enough, there is no place for you to speak!"
As he spoke, Qin Zhun hated even more in his heart. If it weren't for giving the Su Family a chance, how could he get him to this moment of dilemma!
Su Clan held the veil tightly, and could only sit back angrily.
The patriarch showed a pensive expression, and slowly stroked his beard without speaking.
Qin Zening's eyes flashed, and promptly suggested to the patriarch: "Uncle grandfather, although my brother and sister and I were separated from the Hou Mansion, we still have to rely on the clan to take care of them in the future. Therefore, I represent the younger brother and sister. The two hundred acres of land was used as a sacrificial field for the tribe, and the income was used to care for the widows, the elderly without children, and the poor children who were interested in learning."
The patriarch has not yet responded, and the other clans have been moved by the words.
You must know that two hundred acres is not a small amount. The Qin family's sacrifice fields now total only over a thousand acres.
The Qin family is a big family. Among them, Zhongyihou has the best life. There is a knighthood and a bit of a holy favorite, but not every branch has such glory. Among the other branches, there are helpless old people. There are a lot of children, and life is hard. If there are two hundred acres of sacrifice fields, it will be of great benefit to the family.
One of the clan elders thought about it, the more he felt that this idea was a good idea, and he couldn't wait to agree with the patriarch: "Brother Hou, since Lord Hou thinks this is a proper division, then of course it's up to him."
Qin Zhun: "!!!"
He almost jumped up, thinking everyone was crazy today.
Anyone with eyes can see that he was not willing, and Gu Zezhi was forced to do it, OK?
However, his throat seemed to be pinched, and he couldn't say a word, and his heart seemed to be run over by something, and it was painful.
Mrs. Qin Tai didn't pay attention to Qin Zhun's abnormal situation at all, and nodded sighfully, "Ning Brothers three should be more points."
She felt that the long room was pitiful, and there was no father or mother. The title of the long room was given to the second child. Now the three children have to be kicked out of the house.
After all, it was the master who gave the title to the second child...
Thinking about it, Mrs. Qin sighed, twisted the beads in her hand, and said: "Today, I ask the patriarch and several elders to testify to me. My dowry will also be distributed to the long room. Used as Xiao Jiu’s dowry and a dowry for two brothers."
Mrs. Qin looked at Qin Jiao, and she felt guilty, regretful, and compassionate in her heart. Xiao Jiao had suffered outside for more than ten years. After she came back, she didn’t pay much attention to her. So Su Shi has been neglecting her all the time, and he should make up for the child one or two. The girl’s dowry is richer, and it’s not easy to be contemptuous after marrying to the in-law’s!
"..." Qin Zhun felt that a piece of flesh and blood had been removed from his heart, and he had almost exhausted all his strength to be considered as he was not lost.
According to Daqi's rules, the mother's dowry is reserved for her children.
Now Mrs. Qin is going to give 70% of the dowry to the long house, and he only gets 30%. Did the mother forget that he should be the son who inherited the family business and gave her the end of life? !
Gu Zezhi looked around the people with a smile, and nodded with noddedness: "Hou Ye's mismanagement over the years has caused great damage to the Hou Mansion's property. Now, more points are given to the long house. That would be considered as compensation for the long house, which is reasonable."
"Since everyone agrees, please ask Lord Hou to separate."
"..." Qin Zhun twitched his mouth and roared in his heart: Talking to himself! Who agrees! !
However, no matter what he thought in his heart, he still didn't dare to say anything, and nodded hard.
As a result, the patriarchs and elders got together again and began to settle accounts, and re-divided the family property. The longhouses were distributed to the long house including the thousand acres of farmland in the south of the Yangtze River, three large and small houses in Beijing, and ten Zhuangzi in the suburbs of Beijing, Jizhou and Yuzhou , There are more than a dozen shops and so on.
Listening to the patriarch's chanting, Qin Zhun felt his heart cut like a knife, and the pain was so hard that he could even breathe.
Seventy percent of all the "existing" industries in the Hou Mansion were immediately divided up. For Qin Zhun and Su Clan, it was almost like killing them half their lives.
Su's complexion changed from blue to white, with almost no color. He quickly calculated in his heart: This time the division of the family was divided by the long house and so many industries and cash were taken away, and the remaining 30% were mostly fields, Zhuangzi, etc. These cannot be realized immediately, and the livelihood of the Hou Mansion will become a problem. If it doesn't work out, the seller's property must be changed to maintain daily expenses.
Originally, Mrs. Qin had a generous dowry, and they could ask her to adjust one or two, but now she gave most of the dowry to the long room as soon as she opened her mouth, how could she talk to her? !
In a short while, the deed of the separation of the family was written according to this, and passed to the patriarch and Mrs. Qin Tai for review.
Qin Zening signed and pressed the fingerprint on behalf of the long room, and Qin Zhun naturally represented the second room.
Seeing the various things that the long room on the deed book was about to separate, Qin Zhun's eyes were red, and his right hand was trembling slightly with naked eyes.
Finally, he gritted his teeth, pressed his handprint on it, and stamped it again.
The dust settled.
Upon seeing this, the patriarch and the elders were relieved.
Because the Zhongyi Marquis Mansion is the Marquis Mansion, the deed of the division of the family has to be sent to Jingzhao Mansion to be stamped and kept on file, and the patriarch personally sends people there.
Now that the division was over, Gu Zezhi didn't stay long, got up and drew his hand, and said goodbye: "Mrs. Qin, Master Hou, I want to go into the palace and return to the emperor, so I will leave first.
Qin Zhun didn’t bother to pay attention to Gu Zezhi at all, and Mrs. Qin Tai looked at her future grandson-in-law, smiling like a flower, and asked Gu Zezhi to play again another day, and said to Qin Gui: "Sister Ji, you Send it to Zezhi."
Even if Mrs. Qin didn't say anything, Qin Jiu wanted to send Gu Zezhi to him, and immediately got up and responded.
Qin Zening looked at Gu Zezhi and Qin Jiao back and forth, with a slightly subtle expression, and suddenly said, "Ayu, I have inconvenience in my legs and feet. You will accompany your third sister to see the third son of Gu."
Qin Zening couldn't walk on his own feet, so he could only drive her younger brother to stare at Gu Zezhi.
Qin Zeyu: "???"
Qin Zeyu didn't dare to play sideways in front of his elder and sister now. Whatever the eldest brother said, he obediently responded and accompanied Qin Jiu to send Gu Zezhi out.
Qin Jiu and Gu Zezhi walked in front side by side, the sun softly fell, and the gentle breeze sent bursts of plum fragrance.
As one of Gu Ze walked forward, he asked casually, "When are you going to move?"
Qin Jiu said frankly: "The house has been bought, and it can be moved tomorrow."
She almost said that she had already planned to move out of the Hou Mansion.
Gu Zezhi: "Then I will help you tomorrow."
"Yeah." Qin Jiao responded with a smile, his eyebrows curled like a crescent moon, and a smile like a flower.
Qin Zeyu at the back was almost forgotten. He followed four or five steps away from the two of them. He looked back and forth at Gu Zezhi and Qin Jiao. His eyes fell on the corner of her curled lips, and he thought: Yes. I haven't seen his sister smile at him like a flower, pretend it!
Qin Zeyu sighed inwardly, secretly cheering for his sister, hoping that she will pretend and try hard, don't accidentally drop the mask, if she scares the future brother-in-law away, her sister may not be able to marry in the future...
In case his sister can't get married, that means staying at home for a lifetime...
Just thinking about it, Qin Zeyu shuddered, and the whole person was not well. No, he will have to say more to his sister in front of his future brother-in-law.
In their thoughts, the three of them arrived at the gate of Yimen. Gu Zezhi turned on his horse, and his white horse leisurely paced its horse's hooves twice.
Qin Zeyu was about to say goodbye to Gu Zezhi, so he listened to Gu Zezhi as he looked at him and asked with a smile: "Ayu is learning martial arts recently, right?"
Speaking of learning martial arts, Qin Zeyu straightened his chest and nodded happily, "Grandfather invited me a master martial artist."
The youth was still full of youthful faces.
"Ayu, you practice hard," Gu Zezhi's lips smiled deeper, "I recently got a new sword, not bad, I'll send it to you later."
Gu Zezhi is the son of the king. He said that a "good" sword is of course really good. Qin Zeyu's eyes lit up like a lighted lantern, and he nodded and said: "Okay, brother-in-law, you really are Great!"
Such a good brother-in-law, I have to help my sister coax and watch him!
Seeing that his brother was bought by Gu Zezhi so easily, Qin Jiu glanced at him sympathetically, hoping that he would not be sold and count the money for Gu Zezhi in the future!
Thinking about it, Qin Jiu didn't intend to remind his brother at all. He thought it would be better to let him go outside to take a bit of a disadvantage. Anyway, boys, they have to be rough!
Qin Zeyu always felt that his sister's eyes looked a little strange at him, so she pressed her elbow against Qin Jiao to remind her that she hadn't left yet, and then pretended!
"Brother-in-law, go slowly!" Qin Zeyu smiled and waved to Gu Zezhi.
Gu Zezhi rode his horse and left the Zhongyi Hou Mansion and entered the palace again. At this time, it was only halfway through, and the sun lighted the glazed tiles on the roof transparently and magnificently.
When Gu Zezhi left, there was no one else in the Yushufang, but now it is very lively. In addition to the emperor, there are also the second prince Gu Jing and five or six civil and military ministers.
Gu Zezhi was led in by a small waiter, and he heard Gu Jing's energetic voice from inside outside the curtain:
"Father, the second prince Yelu proposed to marry the third princess, and wish the two countries will be good forever."
"Moreover, he is willing to promise Da Qi that if he succeeds to the throne as King Yan in the future, he will make the son of the third princess the prince of the Kingdom of Yan, and let the blood of Da Qi flow in the royal family of Yan, and the two countries will become brothers and friends!
When speaking of the last word "Friendship", the corners of Gu Jing's lips curled up uncontrollably, with a trace of pride. He had a very beautiful talk with Beiyan this time.
As soon as the voice fell, the curtain was knocked up, Gu Zezhi walked in, and Gu Jing subconsciously looked in the direction of Gu Zezhi, startled, and immediately withdrew his gaze calmly.
The emperor also saw Gu Zezhi and motioned him to sit down.
None of the ministers in the imperial library paid any attention to Gu Zezhi. Their attention was all attracted by Gu Jing's words, either thinking or exchanging eyes in twos and threes, and nodded frequently.
They were also moved. If the princess and the protagonist can exchange centuries of peace between the two countries, then it will be a benefit to the country and the people!
Several civil servants present expressed their opinions to the emperor in one word and one word:
"The emperor, it is a great blessing for the two countries to stop the war and forever get together!"
"The emperor, the minister thinks that it is good for the two countries to get married, and it can make a story that will last forever!"
"The minister agrees!"
Someone agrees, while others oppose it.
"The emperor," a 35-six-year-old tall man suddenly said, holding a fist and saluting the emperor after the imperial case, "the general thought that the marriage still needs to be considered."
"The people of Beiyan have always been cunning and unbelievable. In the past hundred years, they have had peace talks with Daqi three times, and they have not always torn up the peace book every time, committing crimes against my Daqi territory again and again! "
The man thought in his heart: In fact, he and some of his colleagues in the army are not optimistic about this peace talks. However, although Da Qi won in this battle, he won tragically. Bei Yan injured his muscles and bones, and Da Qi was also injured. Disastrous, especially the Yu family almost all died in the battle, and only Yu Fuyun was left.
The Northern Army also needs time to recuperate, so Daqi will agree to the peace talks.
When he said this, another middle-aged man with the appearance of a military commander also jumped out and agreed with him: "The emperor, what Wei Yuanbo said is very true, please think twice!"
Civil servants and military generals insisted on their own words, confronting each other, clearly distinguished.
Gu Jing's expression suddenly became ugly. He insisted on not turning his face. He still maintained a calm and composed look. He retorted plausibly: "Father, Bei Yan once tore up the peace treaty, but Daqi and Bei Yan also Never married, if the next King Yan has the blood of Daqi's royal family, he will naturally not offend me Daqi again."
Uncle Wei Yuan disagreed, and raised another objection: "The emperor, the second prince Yelu is just a prince himself, whether he can succeed to the throne is another question! Is it possible that Daqi will have me fight for the throne for him?!"
When Wei Yuanbo said so, even the civil servants present were shaken.
They also don’t want the two countries to go to war again, but as Wei Yuanbo said, if Yeluluan is the prince of Beiyan, then the third princess and him are worthy of marriage, but if Daqi helps Yeluluan to seize the throne, what is that? What's going on!
"..." Gu Jing concluded for a while.
His calm and relaxed face is almost unstretched, and he feels that these military commanders are extremely hateful. Before I heard that there were Turkic horses, they were all faces, all holding themselves, and now they are this ugly face!
And this Wei Yuan Bo...
Gu Jing glanced at Wei Yuanbo quickly, and a ray of gloomy bird flashed across his eyes.
This Uncle Wei Yuan is too lacking in foresight. Their Yun family's daughter is the second prince and concubine in the future. Shouldn't he help himself? ! Why does he oppose himself everywhere instead? !
"Father..." Gu Jing wanted to say something, but was interrupted by the emperor's gesture of raising his hand.
The emperor stared at Wei Yuanbo quietly, and the index finger of his right hand moved slightly on the armrest of the chair twice.
Wei Yuanbo, who had bowed his head slightly, looked up at the emperor, and saw that the emperor had no trouble on his face. Thinking of what his daughter said to him, he gritted his teeth and finally made up his mind.
When break, break.
"The emperor," Wei Yuanbo seized the opportunity to express his stance, "beiyan people are ambitious, afraid that their heart will not die, and they are willing to go to northern Xinjiang and guard the border for my Daqi. Please also the emperor's permission!"
The emperor raised his eyebrows, and immediately understood what Wei Yuanbo meant.
Once Wei Yuanbo guards northern Xinjiang and holds a heavy army in his hand, he must avoid suspicion and cannot marry the prince. Uncle Wei Yuan is asking himself to go to Beijiang, obviously he is refusing to marry for their Yun family.
The emperor was a little surprised in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face, and looked at Wei Yuanbo with a careful look.
Silence spread, and there was no sound in the royal study room.
To be honest, Bo Wei Yuan had no bottom in his heart, his heart was hanging in the air, and a layer of cold sweat appeared behind him, stiffly maintaining the posture of bowing his head and holding his fists.
After a while, the emperor's calm and unwavering voice came from ahead: "I have agreed."
When the last word fell, Uncle Wei Yuan's heart settled and he let out a long sigh of relief: Their Yun family is a military commander's family, but they don't want to be involved in the reserve battle, and would rather be a pure minister.
Moreover, judging from the emperor's current attitude, it is obvious that he does not want the second prince to intervene in the affairs of the army.
Wei Yuanbo was grateful, but fortunately he made a right decision promptly.
Thinking of her daughter saying that the third girl from the Qin family raised her, Wei Yuanbo felt a little complicated. Is it because the third girl Qin accidentally heard something from Queen Wei, or the little girl could learn from some details Have you figured out the king's will?
"Xie Huang," Wei Yuanbo solemnly thanked him.
Gu Jing also reacted at this moment, her eyebrows furrowed, and her face turned ugly for a moment.
He also understood that Uncle Wei Yuan actually meant to refuse marriage, and the Yun family refused to marry his daughter to him, how dare the Yun family! ! !
Gu Jing's heart was full of raging anger, and the waves were higher than the waves. If he hadn't been afraid that this was the Imperial Study Room, he might have exploded.
The emperor glanced at Gu Jing indifferently, and then spoke again: "I need to consider my marriage. You are all separated."
Gu Jing, Wei Yuanbo and others all bowed their heads and shouted in unison: "The minister retire."
Gu Jing and others retired, and only the emperor and Gu Zezhi remained in the royal study room.
Zhou Xin personally gave Gu Ze tea.
The emperor stood up, with a strange look in his eyes, walked towards Gu Zezhi, and sighed: "Zezhi, I really made you right!"
Gu Zezhi lightly sipped a sip of hot tea and said with a smile: "Please also ask the emperor to help hold it for a few more days. After a few days, I will be able to transfer Beiyan’s Beimeng City, Tuli City and Lanta City These three cities are in the bag."
The emperor laughed, "Then I will wait."
The emperor's heart was excited, but at the same time, he couldn't believe it: can Zezhi really do it? !
Hey, Zezhi's mouth is really prison, and he doesn't even reveal anything to him, the emperor.
The emperor also drank a sip of tea, his expression calmed down, thinking of the Qin family's affairs, and asked, "Zezhi, how is the Qin family's separation?"
Gu Zezhi entered Miyamoto this time for this purpose, and he explained the process of the separation of the family.
The emperor listened and drank tea. The ups and downs of tea leaves in the tea soup were reflected in his eyes, and his pupils changed brightly and darkly.
The emperor rubbed the tea cup twice and asked, "Zezhi, how do you know the property is wrong?"
Gu Zezhi said quietly: "I just lied to him casually. Qin Zhun was also guilty of conscience and thought I knew everything."
At the beginning, he said that Qicheng was deliberately offering a high price to give Qin Zhun some room for bargaining. Unexpectedly, Qin Zhun showed his timidity in his words and made Gu Zezhi realize that it was wrong, so he took the sea that is the easiest to make false accounts. The trade defrauded Qin Zhun, and as a result, Qin Zhun was so unfrauded, he was afraid first.
Gu Zezhi hooked his lips, and then said: "For those 600 Turkic horses, Gu Jing gave Yelv Luan 5,000 gold in private. Gu Jing hasn't opened the mansion yet, so the prince's example is enough to reward others. , The number of people who can use it is also limited, so where does so much gold come from?"
"The Cheng'en government has been extravagant in recent years, and there are signs of making ends meet. It shouldn't be able to give out five thousand gold to Gu Jing for a while."
"So, I guess it's Qin Zhun."
"Qin Zhun didn't dare to speak up about this matter, he could only pinch his nose to recognize it..." Recognizing that he had mismanaged his family's wealth and caused damage to the property, he would naturally be more divided in order to "compensate" Family property to the long house.
emperor:"……"
After being stunned, the emperor couldn't help laughing, with a hearty laugh, touching his palm and sighing, "Qin Zhun has lost a lot this time."
At first glance, the 70% that Gu Zezhi proposed was a lion's mouth, but the fine product will find that this condition is probably just stepping on Qin Zhun's bottom line, and Qin Zhun has to recognize it.
What's even better is that Gu Zezhi not only allowed the long house to divide a few percent of the property, but also lied from Qin Zhun the five thousand dollars he had provided to Gu Jing.
"Baihu Tongyi" has a saying: wise man knows well. See the first and hear alone, don't get confused, and see the author who knows the little things.
This sentence probably refers to a person like Gu Zezhi, he is simply taking one step and thinking ten steps, and his meticulous thoughts made the emperor amazed!
But...
The emperor sighed inwardly, then asked suddenly: "Zezhi, do you really want to hold the title of king?"
Gu Zezhi: "I don't want to."
Gu Zezhi stood up and solemnly said to the emperor: "The emperor, please be pleased with the concubine and the father."
emperor:"……"
Speaking of this, even the emperor was speechless, his forehead twitched.
In order to make a peace with the King Duan, Zong Ling has been arguing with him recently. The current Zongling is the Prince of Li and the emperor's uncle. This year is already in his sixtieth year. He has a high level of seniority, and he feels somewhat reliant on the old in his words and actions.
Two days ago, Prince Li ran back to him again, and kept saying:
"The emperor, in the hundred years since the founding of the Daqi Dynasty, the clan has never seen such a scandal!"
"There is no peace in the clan, let alone Yi Jue!"
"Princess Duan is the prince and concubine who got on the jade card. Unless she is killed suddenly, she will belong to the Gu family!"
According to Prince Li's words, if Princess Duan must be reconciled, it would be violent.
Of course, the emperor couldn't agree to such a thing, and he dismissed the Prince Li after a few words. But he knew that the words of Prince Li must also represent the meaning of other princes and county princes in the clan.
As Prince Li said, since the founding of the Daqi dynasty, there has been no concubine from the clan.
The clan has the rules of the clan, and the emperor is also a member of the Gu clan, even he can't ignore the clan's opinions and act recklessly.
The emperor sighed and said, "After Beiyan's affairs are over, I originally planned to give you a title..."
If Gu Zezhi could really get the three cities of Beiyan, then the credit would be tantamount to opening up the territory and giving a title to a title.
"The emperor, please allow the mother and concubine to reconcile with the father." Gu Zezhi repeated it again.
Gu Zezhi looked at the emperor firmly, meaning that the credit would be exchanged for a decree to allow parents to reconcile.
Gu Zezhi didn't hesitate to say that he would give up his title, but the emperor couldn't help feeling a pity for him and couldn't help asking: "Are you sure?"
Gu Zezhi smiled, and stared at the emperor without evasiveness, expressing his ambition calmly, "The emperor, the title will do anytime."
The emperor understood what he meant. Gu Zezhi was saying that he can do meritorious work in Beiyan this time, and he will be able to do more in other matters in the future.
He wants the title, but for him, this is not the only opportunity.
Looking at Gu Zezhi's gentle and gentle face, the corners of the emperor's lips curled up.
His cousin's disposition is really very different from his face, who is he like?
Duan Wang and Duan Wang concubine are not at all such temperamental people.
The smile in the emperor's eyes deepened. He was rare in Gu Zezhi's confidence, and gestured to him, "Sit down."
Although the emperor was noncommittal, from his smiling brows, his mind was clear.
Gu Zezhi didn't ask further, but smiled slightly.
He was about to sit down. At this moment, a small servant in Tsing Yi walked in lightly, and said nervously to the emperor: "Your Majesty, the third princess is ill, and he fainted suddenly..."
When the emperor heard the words, his brows were frowned, and the ground was anxious subconsciously. He was about to ask if there was an emperor Xuan. But when the words came to his lips, Gu Zezhi smiled from the corner of his eyes, as if he had heard something interesting. .
The emperor was startled, and immediately understood, his thin lips pressed slightly.
