Chapter 23 Not the most poisonous, only more poisonous
When they arrived at the Hubu government office, the groom directly threw Leng Tou Qing down, as if he was throwing a corpse. Gu Yu's head was covered with black lines. As expected, every master has his own slave.
King Xiaoyao carried a sword at his waist and walked into the gate in a grand manner. When the officials of the Ministry of Finance, who were still bossing around in the Ministry of Personnel, saw him, they all bowed obediently and said hello.
Gu Yu lowered his head and followed him, enjoying the feeling of being like a fox pretending to be a tiger. It was not bad to be his follower.
"Who took the lead in going to the official department today?" Junze asked as he walked in front.
"Yes, it's Minister Gao and the others." An official said tremblingly, wiping the cold sweat from his head.
Xiaoyao Wang said: "Call him over."
He walked straight to the main hall, not treating himself as an outsider at all, and sat in the upper seat, with a servant serving tea beside him.
Gu Yu used his peripheral vision to look around. It was indeed the richest yamen. The decoration and furnishings were not a bit better than the official department.
Gao Shilang hurried over and said, "I have seen King Xiaoyao. I don't know why King Xiaoyao is here."
Junze smiled coldly: "I am here to give you money on behalf of the staff."
As he spoke, he slapped a 10,000-tael silver note on the table and said, "Come and get it."
Everyone looked at each other, but Gao Shilang resisted the pressure and bowed forward and said: "Why bother the prince to come to the door in person for such a trivial matter? Just send someone over."
Under the gaze of everyone, Minister Gao stretched out his hands towards the ten thousand taels of silver notes.
Gu Yu sighed inwardly, Gao Shilang was still too young and had experienced too little.
Sure enough, when Gao Shilang's fingertips were still a few centimeters away from the banknote, there was a "snap" sound, and Xiaoyao Wang slapped the sword and scabbard at his waist onto the banknote.
Even though he was prepared, Gu Yu was still startled by the sudden burst of evil energy all over his body.
Junze sneered and said: "I spent all my New Year's money for the symposium, and later I went all out to attract investment. I and the officials worked hard to raise the money, and you just stretched out your hands and wanted to pick it up.
.If you dare, take away the money and leave two hands behind."
Gu Yu watched Gao Shilang's face change from white to red and then green, and silently lit a lamp for him in her heart.
Who would dare to do anything wrong with such a fierce look? Everyone in the hall knelt down to apologize.
Gu Yu stood behind him and felt a little happy when he saw the dark heads one by one, as if he was proud of all the officials in the Ministry of Personnel.
From the corner of his eye, Junze saw a smile on the corner of Gu Yu's mouth, like a fox who had succeeded in his evil scheme, so he started to tease her, and in the atmosphere where the Ministry of Household officials dared to be angry but dare not speak out, he suddenly said to her:
"Prince Gu, have you seen that you shouldn't be too polite when communicating with some people? If you have a slightly nicer attitude, they will get angry with you."
The smile on Gu Yu's lips froze, and countless horses and horses were running wildly in his heart.
Brother, you can just offend others. Why did you drag me along? I have offended the entire household department before I even entered the court.
She said sarcastically: "Your Majesty, you are joking."
I wanted to grab him by the collar and beat him up.
Junze said: "Okay, I have given you the opportunity, and you will not take it even if I come to give it to you personally. After the symposium, don't be like those shallow-sighted people who come to ask for it."
Gu Yu secretly complained in his heart, if you slap a knife, who would dare to take it? Besides, you are relying on your status as the nephew of the Holy Emperor. If you are just an ordinary official, let alone a knife, even if you slap a cannon, no one will take advantage of you.
.
Junze glanced at Gu Yu and felt that he should pay a price for using him as a spearman for so long. He stood up and made a gesture to Gu Yu, saying: "Let's go, Prince Gu. I will vent your anger on the officials for you."
Already."
Gu Yu followed him and almost got angry and vomited blood. Are you finished?
When I was going out, I bumped into the Minister of the Ministry of Finance. The Master saw King Xiaoyao's face ashen, blowing his beard and saluting: "I have seen King Xiaoyao."
If looks could kill, Gu Yu felt that the Secretary of the Ministry of Finance had already delayed King Xiaoyao.
She suddenly remembered an old incident. King Xiaoyao once scolded and cried the daughter of the Minister of Household Affairs, which made her want to hang herself.
At first she thought this rumor was too exaggerated. After all, Dayu was a country of etiquette, especially those from aristocratic families who abide by etiquette. Now that she has had more contact with King Xiaoyao, she realizes that his venomous tongue is not watered down at all.
Junze walked straight past, got on the carriage, and said loudly: "Master Shangshu, please take care of the people under your command. Don't let them go around begging for food like beggars."
Gu Yu's legs and feet suddenly went weak as he followed him onto the carriage, and he almost fell to his knees.
Sure enough, King Xiaoyao's tongue is not the most poisonous, only more poisonous.
"Have you really never been beaten in your life?"
As soon as Junze sat down, he heard Gu Yu whisper something in a low voice. He approached her and asked, "What did you say, please speak louder?"
Gu Yu was caught off guard, leaned back, and spoke with a bald mouth.
"I humbly say that you are heroic and admirable."
Junze snorted coldly: "But why did I vaguely hear something about being beaten?"
Gu Yu gave him a fake smile: "You really heard wrong."
Junze took the knife, gently lifted Gu Yu's chin, squinted his peach blossom eyes, and said: "Whether I have ever been beaten is another matter, but I don't know how many times Gu Shizi's thin body can be beaten by me.
beat."
Hearing what he said, Gu Yu naturally thought of being teased by him in the Imperial College, and she felt unhappy. She looked down and saw that the knife was not out of its sheath. There was nothing to fear, so she gently pushed it away with her hand:
"Your Majesty was joking. I didn't say anything about being beaten or not, so I've never heard of it."
"He who knows the current affairs is a wise man, and Prince Gu is indeed a smart man."
Junze took back the knife and put it on the small table.
Although Gu Yu is a woman, she still practices some self-defense. There are many high-quality swords in Zhen Guogong's arsenal. She has seen many good things, but her eyes are still attracted by the sword in his hand.
The scabbard has no patterns and can be called plain and unpretentious. There is a slight gap at the connection between the handle and the scabbard, revealing the sharp blade inside.
Seeing her looking over, Junze pulled out the knife a few inches as if to show off, and a cold light suddenly appeared.
She couldn't help but praise: "What a knife."
Junze smiled slightly, as if he was missing something: "This sword is called Duanfang."
Gu Yu's original thoughts of admiration were instantly broken, and he smiled dryly: "This is a good name."
It's just that the word "duanfang" has nothing to do with you, which really insults this good knife.
Junze rubbed the back of the knife and said, "This is the relic of my father."
Hearing this, Gu Yu was in awe. The eldest princess's consort was once a hero on the battlefield. He was born in the Hejian Jun family. Later, when he was retaking the southern barbarians, he was bitten by poisonous insects there and died of the infection.
When King Xiaoyao was sixteen years old, he joined the army to fight against the Southern Barbarians. He single-handedly crossed the poisonous miasma that even the veteran generals did not dare to break through. Later, he ignored dissuasion and killed an entire tribe that had surrendered. This incident was widely criticized by the people, and it seems that it has survived.
The desire to avenge his father.
Gu Yu sighed in her heart. Her father died on the battlefield in this life, and this man's father also died on the battlefield.
Going south and north actually made her feel sad that she was the same person who lost her parents in the world.
She saw the rare tranquility on Junze's face and was about to say, "I'm sorry for bringing up your sadness."
I don't know what happened outside. The groom suddenly reined in his horse. Gu Yu was caught off guard and dived outward.
Just as she was about to repeat the mistake of being thrown out of the carriage, an arm wrapped around her waist and she was pulled into a hug.
"Prince Gu, why are you still addicted to porcelain? People outside may not be as easy to talk to as I am."
Damn it! She shouldn't have the slightest pity for this broom star.
