The road of the farmer's fortune and the imperial examination

Chapter 1339
"Master Gu!"

Gu Chengyu heard someone calling him, he turned around quickly, saw that it was He Jisheng, he smiled slightly, and greeted him.

"Senior brother is still separated from junior student? Let's call him senior brother!" Gu Chengyu took a look at He Jisheng, and saw that he was full of joy, with a gentle and warm smile. He couldn't help but swear in his heart, this person is used to watching others order dishes.

Before, Gu Chengyu didn't want to hand over the heavy responsibility of welcoming the envoys to He Jisheng, but he was the Minister of Honglu Temple, and this was his duty.Furthermore, the other party is his senior brother no matter what, if Gu Chengyu does it too obviously, there will inevitably be gossip in the court.

"Hey~ Senior Brother is now of a higher rank than Senior Brother. Seeing Senior Brother, Senior Brother feels apprehensive. The etiquette cannot be discarded! But since Senior Brother still thinks highly of Senior Brother, it is disrespectful to be Senior Brother. Let's address him as Senior Brother!" "

He Jisheng's eyes were shining brightly, although he warned himself that he must work hard to curry favor with the other party, after all, Gu Chengyu is not what he used to be, but he still couldn't help being envious.

Hearing the sourness in He Jisheng's words, Gu Chengyu didn't care.After all, you are not a stranger, so why bother with ordinary knowledge?Just save face in the future!It's all for Teacher I's face.

"Brother, you are being polite, why should we see each other? I don't know if the envoy from Daxing has made arrangements?" Gu Chengyu changed the topic, he didn't want to make a fuss with He Jishengxu, this senior brother talked too much and talked too much.

"It's been arranged. I wonder if the emperor will summon the envoys tomorrow?" He Jisheng looked at Gu Chengyu with inquiring eyes. They hadn't gone to court for several days. Now that the government is under the control of Gu Chengyu, there have been many discussions in the court, saying that the emperor may Already involuntary.

As for why you can't help yourself, isn't that clear?It's just that now that Gu Chengyu is holding a chicken feather as an arrow, once the court begins to question it, there will be imperial edicts and emperor's orders to resist it from time to time, making the courtiers gnash their teeth with hatred, but there is nothing they can do about it.

However, these courtiers were not vegetarians, they were just waiting for the opportunity of Daxing envoys to come to court to see if the emperor would appear.If the emperor still can't avoid people, don't blame them for trespassing.

"The emperor's dragon body has gradually recovered in the past two days, and he will naturally attend tomorrow. Daxing sent envoys over this time, led by their seventh prince. We have to show sincerity, don't we? Third senior brother, they This time, it is specially for the diplomatic relations between the two countries. Honglu Temple must not slack off. If there is any mishandling that affects the friendship between the two countries, we will be guilty. After all, the people live in peace and happiness, far more than war chaos, and we are the servants of the people. A lifelong wish."

Since He Jisheng wants to know, it doesn't matter if he tells the other party.The emperor also knew that he was in a difficult situation, in order to break the rumors in the court, tomorrow the emperor will hold his sick body and go to the court to receive the envoys.

"Oh! Your Majesty's dragon body is about to heal? That's really thankful. If that's the case, then I don't have anything to worry about. However, I heard that the Seventh Prince of Daxing is the nephew of my brother's former clan. What a coincidence."

He Jisheng and Gu Chengyu walked out of the palace side by side, when Gu Chengyu heard the words, a sneer curled up on the corner of his mouth, which disappeared in an instant.

"So senior brother also knows? Junior brother didn't think of it before. It can only be said that the world is impermanent and good fortune tricks people. Who would have thought that he had such a status in the past? It's just that his status is different now, and junior brother and I are not good. Then go to build relationships, so as not to embarrass others. Third senior brother, you only need to treat him as the prince of Daxing, respect and keep the etiquette, and don't talk too much about it, after all, I heard that he is in a difficult situation in the Daxing dynasty."

Gu Chengyu smiled, looking at He Jisheng with warning in his eyes.I hope this senior brother can be more sensible, and don't engage in such bastards behind his back, otherwise he won't take care of the teacher's face anymore.

"Really? Maybe he still misses the old love, why should the younger brother reject others thousands of miles away? The seventh prince even asked about you when he saw him as a brother!" He Jisheng had a little disapproval on his face. , He said these words as if Gu Chengyu was too fussy, which was in stark contrast to the other party's open and frank attitude.

"Brother! Since he is already the prince of Daxing, he has naturally drawn a line from the past. Although the two countries have the intention of diplomatic relations, after all, they have not yet reached an agreement. Before the agreement is reached, it is not a good thing to have a close relationship with him I also ask my brother to be cautious in words and deeds, and don’t cause trouble for yourself or the court. This is what my brother said, and please take it to heart.”

Gu Chengyu was very disgusted with He Jisheng's entanglement in this matter, and he was naturally on the list when he was welcoming the envoys just now.However, he and Gu Wanqian did not talk at that time, they just saluted each other as if they were strangers.

He believes that Gu Wanqian is not willing to recall the past now, after all, as the current prince, it is not honorable to take care of the family business of the Gu family.Why did Gu Chengyu rush to curry favor?With his current position in the court, it is impossible to do anything wrong.

He Jisheng's face froze, this junior really didn't give him face.He looked around and saw that there was no one around, so he was relieved.

No matter how dissatisfied he was with Gu Chengyu in his heart, he still calmed down a little, and then put on a worried look on his face.

"What did you say? I just feel that your uncles and nephews got along well before, but now they are separated suddenly, and I am a little emotional. Besides, I don't know if you have heard, but now the court has some gossip about you, and I am very angry when I hear it. There are even people who criticize you for this matter, even if they try to argue for brother and say a few fair words for you, they still maliciously speculate on you, which is really embarrassing."

"Young brother has also heard about this matter, so you don't have to take it to heart. Who doesn't tell people behind their backs, and who doesn't get told behind their backs? It's the norm in the officialdom, so why bother to have the same knowledge as them? Junior brother, I can act upright and sit upright , not afraid of words!"

When He Jisheng talked to him, he was either probing or provoking, and he had exhausted his patience.

"Senior Brother! This matter of entertaining the envoys is up to Senior Brother. Junior Brother, I will take a step ahead and report to the Emperor about the affairs of the court in recent days. Excuse me!"

"Junior brother is just busy! It's better to leave!" He Jisheng saluted, and looked at Gu Chengyu's back that was drifting away, and couldn't help but snorted coldly.

"Jinyu! After summoning the envoys tomorrow, we will discuss the matter of diplomatic relations between the two countries. The opening of the border crossing market needs to be implemented as soon as possible. The treasury is empty, so it won't last long." The emperor leaned weakly on the pillow, his pale lips were a little peeled, The blackness on his face faded a lot, but he looked very pale and bloodless.

"Yes!" Gu Chengyu nodded, poured a bowl of tea himself and handed it to the emperor, in which he dripped some spiritual spring water.

He guessed right, long-term consumption of Lingquan water can strengthen the body, but for the emperor, it can only be delayed for a while!
