Chapter 589 Want to send someone to get rid of her?
Wen Hansi seems to be in a good mood, serving pen and ink in front of the Holy One and assisting the Holy One in handling government affairs.
But except for Gu Yu, no one else has power.
If Prime Minister Wang takes advantage of her absence to attack Wen Hansi, it will be difficult for them to resist.
Therefore, Gu Yu asked them to be cautious in their words and deeds, and learn to be shy when necessary.
Although the Holy One wants to support the poor family against the aristocratic family, he will not give up on Wen Hansi.
But even Shao Wuji, the Holy One, was able to push him out to face Prime Minister Wang. If Bachelor Wenhan was a little careless and someone took advantage of him, the Holy One would not bother to deal with this group of people like her.
Gu Yu's mouth went dry as he spoke. After giving all the necessary instructions, he let them all go down.
Ding Xiaoji lingered and refused to leave.
Ding Xiaoji, who was ranked Sanyuan, was the most outstanding bachelor in Wenhansi. He did a lot for Gu Yu and did not give in even when the fingers of his right hand were broken in prison.
Gu Yu thought highly of him, and when he saw that he would not leave, he gave some more instructions.
"Xiaoji, you are always thoughtful in your work. After I leave, Wen Hansi will be left to you."
Ding Xiaoji said: "I will definitely live up to my trust."
After speaking, Gu Yu took a sip of tea and felt a little strange why he was still standing here.
Ding Xiaoji hesitated and said: "I have one more thing I want to ask Mr. Gu, but I don't know how to ask."
Gu Yu thought of Sun Caiwei each other, but after the Lantern Festival, the two had little interaction, and Gu Yu didn't care, so she asked, "But it doesn't matter."
Ding Xiaoji said: "Previously, Mr. Gu Xiaogong gave me a book of poems and asked me to help write the preface. Later, I accidentally learned that the poem was written by Mr. Gu's adopted sister."
Step sister?
Gu Yu almost choked, but when he thought of Princess Songyang's quirky girl standing by, he guessed that Songyang was making up nonsense.
Gu Yu could only say: "She wrote it, what's wrong?"
Ding Xiaoji probed: "Has she written any more poems recently? I still want to write a preface for her."
After the Lantern Festival, Ding Xiaoji inquired about his adopted daughter who was being raised in the Zhenguo Palace, but found nothing.
Ding Xiaoji only felt that wealthy families valued a woman's reputation too much, so she kept it tightly and did not think about it in other directions.
But seeing that Gu Yu was about to leave Beijing for the northwest, and would not be able to come back for half a year, Ding Xiaoji finally plucked up the courage to ask.
But this question really troubled Gu Yu. If Sun Caiwei was really her adopted sister and got along with Ding Xiaoji, she would be a beautiful woman.
But Sun Caiwei was not her adopted sister, but the concubine whom the Holy Father had given her in marriage.
Gu Yu thought that if Junze ascended the throne one day, she might be able to use Junze's hand to release these wives and concubines, but now she did not have that ability.
Ding Xiaoji's purpose of carefully mentioning Sun Caiwei in front of her was obvious, but Gu Yu could not give him a clear answer.
When Ding Xiaoji saw Gu Yu's silence, he couldn't help but feel annoyed and said: "It's because the lower official was so arrogant. He shouldn't ask for the pen and ink of the girl in the boudoir."
Gu Yudao: "It's not a matter of being abrupt or not."
When Ding Xiaoji heard that there was something going on, he looked at Gu Yu hopefully.
Gu Yu thought for a while and said vaguely: "My sworn sister has a heart disease and needs to be raised with good medicinal materials for a long time. The aunt in the family is afraid of marrying to someone else and being wronged, so she doesn't want her to leave the palace too early. She just waits.
When you feel better, you can stop thinking about these things."
Gu Yu started to make nonsense: "Ginseng, Ganoderma lucidum, Cordyceps sinensis, musk borneol, snow lotus, saffron, etc... There are also some medicinal materials that are priceless in the market."
Every time Gu Yu gave the name of a medicine, Ding Xiaoji's face became uglier.
There was no other reason. Ding Xiaoji, who was born in a poor family, would have been short of money for any of these medicinal materials for a period of time, let alone the best quality and long-term use.
Ding Xiaoji once again saw clearly the gap between nobles and poor families.
Not to mention that he had only met Master Mingxin once, but he still didn’t know whether Master Mingxin had feelings for him.
Even if he could really marry layman Mingxin, he would still be letting her suffer along with him.
Gu Yudao: "Xiaoji, I don't mean to look down on you. It's just that Bachelor Wenhan sounds like a close minister of the Holy Emperor, but in fact he is like walking on a tightrope. He looks high, but if he is not careful, he will climb high and fall down."
Ding Xiaoji said: "Young Master, do you want your subordinates to fight for power?"
Gu Yudao: "Currently, Bachelor Wenhan has the favor of the Holy Father, but no real power. Without me, he is still vulnerable. Ding Xiaoji, I can see that you are ambitious and well-organized. You will have great potential in the future. Don't give up on your family status."
Limit your future path. I am going to the northwest, and Wenhansi has no support anymore. It may be a crisis for Wenhansi, but it is not an opportunity."
This is also what Gu Yu said from the bottom of his heart.
The young eagle will always take off, and Wen Hansi cannot rely on her alone to support it.
After she left, the Holy Council soon discovered that Wen Hansi would be severely suppressed by Prime Minister Wang, and was bound to want to break the situation.
And Ding Xiaoji, who is vaguely the leader of Wenhan's bachelors, may be the key to breaking the situation.
Gu Yu is very optimistic about him.
Ding Xiaoji became serious and said: "I will live up to my young master's appreciation!"
Gu Yu patted his shoulder and said, "My adopted sister is destined to stay at home for a few more years. You should work hard."
Ding Xiaoji nodded seriously, his heart full of fighting spirit.

After Zhao Shangshu went to court, he met Prime Minister Wang secretly and said nervously: "Prime Minister, if the Holy One wanted to suppress the bandits, it would be enough to send King Xiaoyao alone. Why did he send Mr. Gu to the northwest? Could it be for military pay?
"
Prime Minister Wang said: "All the Yuan captains have gone to Beijing, and the children of the Gu family will naturally go to pay for the northwest army."
Zhao Shangshu immediately scolded: "Those people in the northwest don't know what to do for food, and they actually let Colonel Yuan enter the capital."
Prime Minister Wang said: "Even if he doesn't come to Beijing, do you really think that what you did in the northwest can be hidden for a lifetime?"
Zhao Shangshu immediately lowered his head and said: "Young Master Gu is very capable. If he really finds out the truth, what should we do?"
Unlike the anxious Zhao Shangshu, Prime Minister Wang remained calm and seemed not to take Gu Yu seriously.
Zhao Shangshu couldn't figure out what Prime Minister Wang was thinking, so he tried to say: "I want to send someone from the lower official..."
Zhao Shangshu made a mark in front of his neck with his palm: "Get rid of her."
But Prime Minister Wang shook his hand and said, "No, let her investigate."
Zhao Shangshu's expression changed drastically. If Gu Yu were to find out the truth, the implications would be too extensive.
Don't talk about him, even the prime minister can't escape death.
Prime Minister Wang smiled slightly and said again: "Not only let her investigate, but also let her investigate clearly."
