Chapter 1 and Chapter 2 will be later, everyone should watch it tomorrow
Chapter 242 From Darkness to Brightness
Gu Mu had a lot of things he wanted to ask his brother, but he swallowed the words as soon as they reached his lips. What he saw in his brother's eyes was full of trust in him, so why bother with those unnecessary things, as long as he did The best wood in my brother's mind will do.
So in the end Gu Mu just had dinner with Gu Zhao in the humble small restaurant at home, and packed a few satisfying dishes after eating. In retrospect, Mu didn't abduct Gu Zhao back to his Viscount's mansion, but It was sent to the gate of Gu's mansion, and after watching Gu Zhao enter the gate of Gu's mansion, he turned the carriage and went back to his Viscount's mansion.
Staying by his brother's side, his heart has calmed down, and then he has to think carefully about how to go in the future.
He still has the life of that woman Gu Zhen, and there are still some details he needs to know from the woman, but he already knows through the afternoon's torture that this woman doesn't know many details, let alone the important events in the court. Behind those fights.
But there are a few major events that require his attention, and they need to be arranged in advance.
It is because of my elder brother that this life has changed a lot compared to the one that Gu Zhen said. The thing that makes Gu Mu gloat the most is Yan Xiangmian's major reversal of fate. This person is the future emperor in Gu Zhen's mouth. , but now he is down and out, and he has fallen out with Yu Wenshao, and he is no longer the most loving couple in Gu Zhen's mouth.
The quarrel between the two is clear to Gu Mu, because people have been arranged to watch them, maybe because the emperor kicked Yan Xiangmian out of the list of candidates, so Yu Wenshao's attitude towards Yan Xiangmian is no longer the same It was hot at first, but after Gu Zhao went to high school, Yu Wenshao got drunk every day. One day, Yan Xiangmian bumped into Yu Wenshao and got out with other men. The two had a big quarrel and then broke down. One more person who got drunk.
Gu Mu is very proud, very proud, just because Gu Zhao gave a slight push behind, let a future emperor perish on the way, and even became a drunkard, a loving couple also turned into a resentful couple, It can be seen that the love in Gu Zhen's mouth is full of water, at least Yu Wenshao deliberately approached Yan Xiangmian with a purpose.
The turmoil in the court also spread to the Imperial Academy and had a great impact. Within two days, Gu Zhao heard a dispute in the Imperial Academy. Gu Zhao was also involved in it, and it was Yang Weizhan who pulled him in at second place. Hearing this person's voice, Gu Zhao knew that this dispute was controlled by Yang Weizhan, and he was also deliberately pulled into it by Yang Weizhan. , not only him, but also Song Ze.
Gu Zhao sighed inwardly. To some extent, there is a certain reason for the ignorance of literati. Is Yang Weizhan's move also showing his favor to Yan Xiangjin?
Yang Weizhan led the topic with a bit of malice in his eyes: "We might as well listen to the opinions of Zhuangyuan and Tanhualang. Song Zhuangyuan and Gu Tanhua must have a good opinion on this matter, right?"
"Yes, I don't know what Song Liuyuan thinks about this matter, but Gu Tanhua seems to be closer to the princess, Gu Tanhua..."
"Because of being close, Gu Tanhua is the best candidate to persuade the princess." Yang Weizhan quickly positioned Gu Zhao.
Song Ze and Gu Zhao glanced at each other, but they couldn't see Yang Weizhan's deliberate intentions and the hostility towards them. I really don't know where he came from so much hostility.
Song Ze said indifferently: "The princess is the only heir of His Majesty. It's normal for Your Majesty to have a preference for the princess. Besides, the princess went on tour for the sky before and made great contributions. How can the princess be obliterated just because she is a woman? I Older men should be more broad-minded."
As soon as Song Ze's words came out, several people echoed them. At the Qionglin Banquet that day, the princess's demeanor convinced many new scholars, so today they were very dissatisfied when they heard the people headed by Yang Weizhan criticize the princess's behavior of listening to politics. Argue.
Gu Zhao brushed off his cuffs, and said calmly: "Your Majesty's selection of talents and abilities is something that His Majesty and the cabinet ministers have to worry about. We should do our part well. Gu is not that capable of influencing the princess's thoughts." If Lord Yang feels that the princess has done something wrong, Lord Yang can persuade her by himself."
After Gu Zhao finished speaking, he ignored Yang Weizhan, shook his sleeves and left. He has the same official position as Yang Weizhan, and no one is higher than the other. If he wants to leave and stay, how can Yang Weizhan stop him?Now that Yang Weizhan has made it clear that he wants to stand against him, why should he save face for Yang Weizhan.
Gu Zhao left, and Song Ze bowed his hands to Yang Weizhan, and left. Yang Weizhan looked at the backs of the two, his face was livid with anger, and then he insisted on making the dispute even bigger, involving more people, The commotion was vigorous and vigorous, which meant that the court could hear their voices.
Even through the door, one could hear the excitement outside, and Song Ze came running to talk to Gu Zhao.
"Yang Weizhan, what does this mean?"
"He has surrendered to someone long ago. He is doing something for that person, and he deliberately took the two of us under the knife. His appetite is really big."
"The current situation, we can't let them continue to make trouble like this."
Gu Zhao tilted his head and said, "Maybe it's not necessarily a bad thing. At least the trouble has caused the princess's intention to participate in politics to be made clear. It turned out that many people pretended to be deaf and dumb. Now that they make it clear, the princess may be able to get out of the dark." Everywhere went to the light, and participated in politics openly and aboveboard."
Song Ze was stunned: "Could this be the reason why His Majesty allowed the people below to argue?"
Gu Zhao shrugged: "Anyway, I don't think His Majesty can't control the court."
Song Ze nodded sympathetically. His majesty is very powerful. Yang Weizhan's jumping so high is not necessarily a good thing.
The two communicated in a very low voice, so as not to have ears on the partition wall. After a while, someone knocked on the door and poked his head in. It was Yan Tao: "I guessed that Song Liuyuan was here, and I came in to hide."
Gu Zhao couldn't figure out what Yan Tao thought about this matter. This person was usually a little bit dishonest, making it hard to guess what was going on in his heart. He seemed to be a very open-minded person, but after all, he hadn't known him for long. .
Gu Zhao smiled and said, "You were also caught by Mr. Yang to express your opinion?"
Yan Tao winked: "Yeah, I was arrested and fooled by me. We just entered the officialdom, so how can we get involved in such a big event? Besides, I finally got into high school, so I want to do my duty here. If you stay in court, you don't want to get involved in such a big event."
Gu Zhaowei raised his eyebrows. Some people may really think like Yan Tao, who just want to be wise and protect themselves. This kind of important event, a bad position, is likely to lose their heads. If the emperor insists on supporting the princess, the group The emperor annoyed the emperor by fighting against the emperor. The emperor has nothing to do with the high-ranking officials, but can't he use the lower officials to vent his anger?
It is indeed inappropriate for a new scholar who has just entered the officialdom to jump desperately to show his presence. The higher the jump, the easier it is to become cannon fodder. It doesn't matter that Yang Weizhan has Taifu Yang behind him, but it is dangerous for other people with no background to get involved.
Gu Zhao echoed, "Yeah, it's not easy to pass the imperial examinations. I also want to stay with my duties, but I don't want to go back to my hometown to farm."
The corners of Yan Tao's mouth and eyelids twitched when he heard Gu Zhao's words. Others could still say such things. Gu Zhao couldn't believe a word when he said it. As for the Viscount Pin, he has made such a great contribution to him, and it is his turn to go back to his hometown to farm the land.
Suddenly realizing this, Yan Tao immediately became envious of Gu Zhao. That credit is the amulet on Gu Zhao's body. This guy is much younger than him, but he is more stable than him in this court. Too much, Yang Weizhan chose to take Gu Zhao as the knife, he really chose the wrong person, did he forget how Gu Zhao got his title?
Song Ze was almost amused by Gu Zhao's serious attitude.
Even when Gu Zhao went home at night, he couldn't avoid this matter. After dinner, Gu Yao came to the study to look for him, as if he wanted to talk to his third uncle.
"Yaoer, what's the matter with you? Are you busy opening a branch?" Gu Yao has recently been busy with the third store after rectifying the two stores. The reputation of the Pinxiang store has increased a lot recently. Occasionally, Gu Zhao could smell the scent of dim sum from Pinxiang Shop in the Hanlin Courtyard, and he didn't know who was hiding and eating it secretly.
"Third Uncle, I heard people talking about the princess outside today, Third Uncle, Elder Sister Xi wants to..." Rao Gu Yao is much more courageous now, so she didn't dare to say the following words.
Gu Zhao spoke out for her: "The princess aims at the throne. If the princess succeeds, she will become the first female emperor in the history of this land and write a glorious chapter in the history books."
Gu Yao just felt her blood boil when she heard it, but she was still worried that she had the upper hand: "I didn't expect Sister Xi to have such a big ambition, but there are too many opposition voices outside, I am worried that if Sister Xi fails to succeed, What will happen to Sister Naxi?"
"If you don't succeed, you will become benevolent. Yao'er, your third uncle and the Gu family have already stood on the princess's boat, and the princess and His Majesty will not allow us to disembark halfway, so you have to believe that the princess will succeed, and so will Your Majesty." If the princess succeeds, I believe that if the princess takes the position, she will be a better ruler than the other three, and the princess has a benevolent heart to love the people than them."
At first, Gu Zhao was only out of his own selfishness and didn't want Yan Xiangmian to take over the throne. However, during the princess's tour, he saw that the princess was more valuable than other Xiangzi generations. So from then on, he sincerely hoped that the princess would be on the throne.
Gu Yao took a deep breath, never thought that she would be able to touch such a big event, but the prospect described by the third uncle also made her heart surge. If the princess can really become the first female emperor in history, what an exciting moment it will be, To be able to witness such a scene with my own eyes is not in vain for the world to go through this experience.
