Kuai Chuan: The villain became my plug-in

Chapter 203
"Ma'am, Eunuch An is here."

Just as Gu Nian lay down, she heard Ming Pei whispering in her ear, and she didn't want Ming Pei to serve her anymore, so she quickly put on her coat and said, "Hurry up! Bring him in."

The night was dark, and it was another year of deep winter. An Shaoyu came in from the outside with a chill in his body. He looked up at Gu Nian before kneeling on the ground: "Mother, it's a good thing that the slave lives up to his fate."

Looking up at Ming Pei behind Gu Nian, he hesitated to speak.

Gu Nian understood and understood that An Shaoyu must have found out something, otherwise he wouldn't be so nervous.

He said softly to Ming Pei: "Go and help Ben Gong guard the door, don't allow anyone to rush in rashly."

"Yes."

The door is closed.

The expression on An Shaoyu's face was a little dignified, he took out the token from his arms, and put his hands in front of Gu Nian: "Mother, this token, the servant has found it."

"What did the Chen family leave to Concubine Chen?" Gu Nian took the token from An Shaoyu's hand. The copper and iron token was heavy in his hand, and there was still a bit of An Shaoyu's body temperature.

"It's...private soldiers. The Chen family is raising private soldiers, and there are quite a few of them."

Gu Nian nodded, there are only two things that tokens can do, people and money.

She also thought about Cai, but she still felt that people were more likely.

The stability of the border is also due to the ability of Chen's father and brother. In terms of money, there is real, but there is not much. Even if the wealth is restrained, it is afraid that it will be sent to the palace and given to Chen Yuying.

Otherwise, how to maintain her extravagant life with her monthly bill.

Chen Yuying's extravagance is not the same as Concubine Shu's. The former exudes wealth from the inside out, while Concubine Shu is like a beautiful carambola, maintaining a glamorous surface.

But people are different, there are so many soldiers at the border, and there are many dead and disabled, there are many things that can move.

A look of seriousness flashed in Gu Nian's eyes: "How many? I found out where they live in a small house."

An Shaoyu stretched out three fingers and waved them in front of Gu Nian's eyes: "These people are now at the foot of the imperial city outside the city, and some of them pretend to be ordinary villagers. They will sell some vegetables they grow when they enter the city in the morning. Another group of people are in Longhua Temple. A large area of ​​land in front of and behind Longhua Temple was given away by the royal favor. It depends on a few monks in the temple. The land cannot be found, so they are regarded as non-staff personnel of Longhua Temple. Although it is a non-staff, But the good thing is that there are so many people who flooded into the imperial city all of a sudden, they knew that there was a ghost under there, so they broke up, and who would investigate Longhua Temple, so the Chen clan collapsed, more than two years ago , This private soldier hiding in the imperial city was stunned. It was just this time, the slave happened to meet a private soldier who was selling vegetables.

An Shaoyu said that his mouth was dry, but Gu Nian was not polite to the cup he handed over, and drank two bowls instead.

"Then... are those people reliable?"

This is the point of Gu Nian's question.

People from the Chen family must have been available before the Chen family collapsed, but now that so much time has passed, there may be some surprises.

It's like singing a song on a hill.

If the cohesion of the organization is broken, the strength of the organization will be greatly reduced.

"It works."

An Shaoyu gave Gu Nian an affirmative answer, seeing Gu Nian looking over, he quickly said: "It can be used, but it cannot be reused."

When Gu Nian heard this, it became clear.

It can be used, which means that the appeal of this token is still there.It cannot be reused, because the owner of this token is no longer there. After two years of busy work on the root of the imperial city, many people have settled down in the local area, and there are not a few of them who have families and children.

Why do people still work hard for you, unless...

Unless they can afford a big price, let them pay willingly.

All of this, in the final analysis, lies in the word money.

If the country has no money, where does the money go?

One is in the hands of merchants, and the other is in the hands of corrupt officials.

But if you want to take it back from those people, not only is it not easy.The most important thing is that she has the power, the right to command and control the world.

Gu Nian waved her hand, and the excitement subsided. Where is the emperor, she will consider whether to use "strong medicine" first. After all, the battle against Japan cannot be delayed any longer.

Watching An Shaoyu leave, Gu Nian just asked the servants to lock the palace gate when he heard cats meowing outside the palace gate.

This is obviously not the sound of wild cats in the palace, it is just imitated by people, but why not just shout it?

She asked Lue to open the palace gate and light up the lights in the courtyard. Just as the candles were lit, Zhenyu, the maid of honor beside Chen Yuying, entered the courtyard by touching the wall and knelt at Gu Nian's feet.

Gu Nian was startled.

Ever since Chen Yuying came out of the cold palace, she looked more lively and wiser.I haven't boasted yet, so here I come again.

Do you want to be a thief?
"Concubine Chen doesn't know how to be safe in the middle of the night. Why did she ask you to come here secretly?"

Gu Nian's face was slumped, serious and impatient, under the flickering candlelight, Zhenyu, who was kneeling on the ground, trembled a little.

But no matter how frightened, slaves like them still do what the master ordered.

Zhenyu had a mournful face, with a trace of weirdness and panic hidden on her face, her forehead touched the bottom, making a crisp sound on the bluestone board.

"Your Majesty, you...help our master, the master...she seems to be pregnant..."

Only then did Gu Nian know where Zhenyu's weirdness came from.

He probably knew why the two children of Yu Zhaoyi and Zhao Jieyu died on the same day for no reason. Who would believe the reason given by Gu Nian?

The fact that the two children were killed by the emperor himself became a taboo among the people in the harem.

The concubines in the harem stopped making noise, and the queen mother lived in seclusion and didn't want to care about the emperor. After all, she was not the emperor's biological mother, and it was hard to say anything about being separated by a layer.

Then there is the concubine Liang, who guards the eldest princess as always. This is the only child of the emperor, and she is also the child she will risk her life to keep.

Concubine Shu fell silent, and her younger sister also fell silent.Concubine Liang?That is a smart person, no one can compare to her in judging the situation.

Yu Zhaoyi and Zhao Jieyu, ever since their children were gone, they hid in their palaces every day, eating fast and praying to Buddha. They were more depressed than the dying old man, the Queen Mother.

The rest of the nobles, promises, etc., have not yet become familiar in front of Gu Nian's eyes. Those who have thought about it, no one stopped them, but after entering the emperor's bedroom, they never came out alive.

Over time, they all stopped thinking.

No matter how good the wealth is, it also depends on whether there is that fate.

The emperor's head-flu syndrome has not recurred since Gu Nian changed him to a "medicine", but the distorted temperament that erupted will never go away.

Everyone in the harem is in danger, so what's the difference in the previous dynasty!

Why did Chen Yuying beg her to come here?I'm afraid!
She is afraid that the emperor who is like a lunatic now, she is afraid that she will not be able to keep the second child in her belly.
