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

Chapter 640 Imperial Order
When Ming Mo came back to reply, Gu Chengyu had already finished writing the matters that needed to be replenished for the tea tax.

"My lord! The man has been sent back."

"Hmm! Has his classmate dealt with it?" Gu Cheng Yuhai felt a little worried, so he asked again.

"Return to your lord! I have already used money to let him claim his illness and rest for a few days."

Gu Chengyu put down the brush, touched his neck, and planned to write tomorrow.

"I can rest assured that you are doing business. Have the people who went to Yingnan Mansion withdrawn? Call the other few to teach Haosheng."

After Ming Mo left, Gu Chengyu thought about it, who would be behind those people?Is it the princes, or Xia Qing?

With so many officials in the imperial court, could he be one of them?

When he was in Tianxiang Pavilion that day, someone paid him money. Could it be the master behind the scenes of Tianxiang Pavilion?Or that Lu Chen?
When Gu Chengyu thought about it this way, he felt that everyone was possible, but he didn't look like anyone.It suddenly occurred to him that Lu Chen had a very close relationship with Prince Jing, and that Prince Jing was not as reclusive as he appeared on the surface.

In addition, when he went to Prince Jing's mansion, Prince Jing used a beauty trick, and he felt that the possibility of that person was Prince Jing was quite high.

Gu Chengyu shook his head. Guessing is guessing after all, and it is not yet possible to draw a conclusion.Anyway, for a while, that person couldn't threaten him.

The next day, Gu Chengyu took the carriage to pick up Ye Zhiqiu early.Although Zhang Hai knew that he was going back to his hometown in two days, he didn't give him any work.

However, it is better to complete the excerpt earlier.Before leaving, he always went to each house to say something.I also want to make an appointment with Zhu Pang and Zheng Lun to have a gathering together.

Since he entered Hanlin, he is busy every day.Zhu Pang was going to the Imperial College to study, and he only came to the mansion once during the period.

As for Zheng Lun, he also took the examination of Shujishi.Because of the background of the Duke's Mansion, he had a good time in the Imperial Academy.

It's just that Gu Chengyu and Zheng Lun don't work in the same place, so they often don't meet each other.

"Jinyu! Why don't you bring my people here when you go back to your hometown this time! I have already sent a letter to the family, asking them to pick a clever one, so that they can run errands for me. I can still trust your vision , the tribe has to trouble you to take a look at the person they choose."

In fact, Ye Zhiqiu meant to ask Gu Chengyu to guard him, and don't fortify anyone who doesn't understand.

If the patriarch had some selfish intentions and stuffed his own children or those from other families with money, but his character was not good enough, and he refused to obey, then Ye Zhiqiu invited a grandpa back?
Although Ye Zhiqiu is an official, the clansmen generally dare not offend, but there is no guarantee that there will be those idiots who will not obey their orders.

Gu Chengyu nodded, "If you want me to say that you are short of more than one, why don't you just pick two older ones and stay with you to run errands and do errands, and leave a younger one with you for training. This solves the difficulties in the clan , you have benefited yourself."

Gu Chengyu said this because Ye Zhiqiu has already become an official, and only one entourage is definitely not enough.

If there are more people to be added in the future, wouldn't it be better to solve it all at once?
Ye Zhiqiu gave a wry smile, "It's not like you don't know, my house is small and there are not many houses. If there are too many people, how can I live there?"

Gu Chengyu frowned after hearing this, "Then rent a bigger yard first, isn't it for the catering business? If your eldest sister and brother-in-law come, where do you let them live? Do you want to rent another yard?"

When Ye Zhiqiu heard it, it really made sense, but there was still some hesitation on his face.

When Gu Chengyu saw it, he knew that he was worried about money.

"If you don't have the money, don't be polite to me. In the future, if you make money from cooking and eating, then you can pay me back."

Knowing that Ye Zhiqiu was embarrassed to say it, Gu Chengyu spoke first.

The reason for helping Ye Zhiqiu is also because of Ye Zhiqiu's good nature.The two have known each other for many years, if they are living a life of luxury, but they are capable but do not help their friends, it is not justified.

Besides, if you don't have silver in your hands, you will inevitably have shallow eyelids in the future.If he did anything to accept bribes and was caught by those officials or opponents, he would also be implicated.

Therefore, in terms of emotion and reason, he has to help.

"Then I won't be polite to you, and I will pay you back when I have money." Ye Zhiqiu was more relaxed than before when he planned to make a living by eating.

Perhaps it was because there was no profitable business before, Ye Zhiqiu was afraid that he owed too much to Gu Chengyu and would not be able to pay it back in the future, so he was always reluctant to accept Gu Chengyu's kindness before.

Now it doesn't matter whether the food earns money or not, but at least there is hope.

"Have you sent a letter to your elder sister? If you have already sent a letter, I will bring your elder sister and the others, so as to save you from having to wait for your family leave before going back."

Gu Chengyu thought that when he went back this time, there were still many people returning to the capital, so it was just a matter of taking two more people with him.

Ye Zhiqiu couldn't help showing joy when he heard this.

In fact, he originally wanted to trouble Gu Chengyu, but Gu Chengyu brought more people and things back to Beijing this time, so he was a little embarrassed to speak up.After all, there are already more clansmen, and if two more people are brought along, there will be a lot of trouble on the road.

The two talked about Gu Chengyu's plan after returning, and the carriage had already arrived at the gate of the palace.

As soon as Gu Chengyu stepped into the room, Liu Zonghan came up to Gu Chengyu with a smile on his face and said, "Master Gu, Mr. Zhang sent someone to invite you over early in the morning. Needless to say, it must be a happy event."

Gu Chengyu was a little surprised when he heard that, did the appointment documents come down?

"Thank you Master Liu for letting me know, I'll go to Master Zhang right now!" Gu Chengyu glanced at the other two desks in the room, and saw that Ren Ge, who always came first every time, didn't show up today, and was always the last to arrive on weekdays Liu Zonghan arrived so early today.

After Gu Chengyu thanked Liu Zonghan, he went to Zhang Hai's place.

"My subordinate Gu Chengyu has met Mr. Zhang!"

Zhang Hai took a look at Gu Chengyu, "Don't be too polite!"

He didn't expect Gu Chengyu to be promoted so soon. He heard about the tea tax and Yanyin yesterday.He was a little thankful that he hadn't completely turned against Gu Chengyu before.

Gu Chengyu's ability is not small, the emperor thinks highly of him, and it will take a few years before his rank will be higher than him.

"I have already drafted the document for your promotion to be a servant of the Imperial Academy. After the Ministry of Officials confirms it, you can be promoted to the position of servant."

After Zhang Hai finished speaking, he took another look at Gu Chengyu.Seeing that Gu Chengyu was still calm, he couldn't help feeling a little bit emotional.

He was promoted in just over a month, yet he was still so calm.Sometimes he felt that Gu Chengyu was too young and mature, and lacked the vigor that young people should have.

"Thank you, my lord!" The drafting of imperial edicts is generally a matter for the Imperial Academy. After the Ministry of Officials confirms and stamps the seal, Gu Chengyu can take office immediately after receiving the imperial edict.

cough!In fact, it’s just a change of office!
