Chapter 127 No Contrast No Harm

However, soon, Lu Wanyin knew the reason.

On the day Gu Xingzhi came back, the restaurants in Yanjing City were full, and the common people surrounded the streets, like a great general welcoming his triumphant return. Even the corridors were crowded with people, crowds of people everywhere.

What he did in Datong has long been extolled by storytellers.The remarks of gods descending to earth and reincarnated soul children are exaggerated as if they don't want money.Not to mention that this time, even the emperor will come to greet him in person - which prince can have such a big meeting?

Therefore, among the people crowded everywhere to watch the excitement, many of them have never seen the third prince, and they are really curious about what this person who descended from the gods looks like!
"My God, Princess, there are so many people!"

He Xiang stayed in the carriage with Xie Lingyun, although they were dressed in men's clothes, but when they returned to Yanjing, it was difficult to guarantee that Xie Lingyun would not be recognized.So He Xiang only dared to lift the curtain quietly, but with just one glance, she was startled by the battle outside.

Xie Lingyun did not expect that there would be so many people welcoming Gu Xingzhi's return.It seems that what he did in Datong has spread to Yanjing.Judging from the enthusiastic reaction of the people, it seems that they have a good impression of him.

The cheers outside were like welcoming the great general back from victory.If it was a few months ago, even Gu Xingzhi himself would not have imagined that he would become the object of longing in the hearts of the people in Yanjing.

The third prince in the past had an unpredictable temperament, and there were many violent rumors about him. The people made up countless rumors, and even used them to stop children from crying at night. It is really scary!
But this time the third prince went to Datong, not only to open warehouses for disaster relief, but also to save the people in dire straits.Moreover, he also strongly supported the imperial physician, so that the plague could not spread in Datong.

To the people of Yanjing, the disaster relief was not so shocking.After all, in the past, it was not the princes and grandchildren who did not go to rescue disasters. In the past dynasties, such things were very common.But being able to stop the plague, in the hearts of the common people, is comparable to a god in this world!
"It was too late to say it, but the third prince stood up when everyone was against Dr. Zhang. I will bear all the consequences! That's the sentence that made Dr. Zhang dare to do it and save Datong. Saved the banquet!"

The storyteller was speaking dryly in a restaurant surrounded by people.And people like him talking about the great achievements of the third prince can be found everywhere in Yanjing.Although it was a bit exaggerated, it was a real thing to stop the plague.

Everyone was stunned for a while, and couldn't help shouting at the wonderful place. During this period of time in Yanjing, if you can't tell the second and third deeds of the third prince, then you can't even find someone to chat with!

Gu Sheng led a group of ministers and waited outside the palace gate.Gu Xingzhi is regarded as the proud son of heaven by the people of Datong, and he is also honored as a father.Especially recently, Gu Xian also had an heir, and it seemed that those rumors that were once unfavorable to the royal family were being broken one by one.

So during the recent period, Gu Sheng was in a good mood.A few days ago, two new concubines were admitted into the palace, and there was a sense of strength returning to the youth.

When he saw Gu Xingzhi riding on the horse and slowly approaching him, he seemed to see his young self - so energetic, so unstoppable!

"My son sees my father!"

Gu Xingzhi got off the horse early before reaching Gu Sheng.Since going to Datong, he has become a lot calmer. Although his face has experienced some wind and frost and looked darker, his whole person feels more determined.

"Okay, just come back!"

Gu Sheng helped him up himself. The picture of father's kindness and son's filial piety made the ministers behind him nod repeatedly.Gu Xian also stood behind, feeling very uncomfortable at this moment.In the front, it was the deep love between father and son, but he was like a bystander, completely an outsider.

"Third brother, I haven't seen you for a few months, you are tired and thin."

Before coming, Gu Xian's counselor gave him many tricks, and analyzed the pros and cons of them, telling him to hold back his inner emotions at this time.So even though Gu Xian was dissatisfied, he was still able to say something on the scene.

"Thank you, second brother, for your concern. Solving father's worries and problems is what I should do."

Gu Xingzhi's attitude was neither high nor low, neither arrogant nor humble, his attitude made Gu Sheng feel more satisfied, he patted his shoulder and said: "Good boy, you have worked hard this time. You two Brother is right, they are indeed tired and thin.”

Gu Sheng beckoned, and the eunuch who was behind holding the imperial decree immediately ran over.

Gu Xian and Gu Xingzhi looked over at the same time, but Gu Xingzhi was an accident, but Gu Xian was extremely shocked.Could it be that the royal father can't wait to return to the palace, is he about to reward him now?
Gu Xingzhi has made great contributions to disaster relief, and he will definitely be rewarded for his merits when he returns.Gu Xian knew this in his heart, so he was prepared.It's just that when he saw Gu Sheng smiling so happily, he suddenly felt a little uneasy.

The counselor said that at most it would be to give some gold, silver and jewelry. After all, Gu Xingzhi has no official position, and if the reward is too generous, it will break the existing balance. According to the emperor's usual style, he should not be rewarded.

They all said that now that the father is showing such importance to Gu Xingzhi, it is nothing more than wanting to alert himself so that he will not get too complacent.The imperial power needs to be balanced, whether it is himself or Gu Xingzhi, the imperial father does not want to see one family dominate.

So now they have to be careful not to be as high-profile as they used to be.

Gu Xian understood the truth, but when he heard the content of the reward, he almost couldn't control himself - Gu Xingzhi was actually named king!
"Specially confer the title of the third prince as the King of Jin, and enshrine it as a treasure, suitable for succession..."

He was conferred the title of King Ning some time ago, and he thought it was already a great honor, but now Gu Xingzhi has been conferred the title of King Jin, on an equal footing with himself. It took him so many years of hard work to get the position of King Ning, Gu Xingzhi Why should he? !

Before Gu Xian had time to be sad, what made him even more angry came again.Not only him, but also the ministers present were surprised after hearing this.

Because, Gu Xingzhi, the king of Jin, actually has a fief!

"You just came back, and there are still many things to learn. I don't need to go to the fief for the time being. I will talk about it later when I want to go." Gu Sheng gave Taiyuan to Gu Xingzhi as a fief, and he didn't know if it was because he was in Datong this time. Thanks to him, he got such a place.

The scale there is not small, and Gu Xingzhi, the prince, has real power in his hands at once.

Although Gu Sheng didn't seem to have any plans to let him go to the fief, but after the fief, the annual income alone is very considerable, let alone other things.Compared to Gu Xian, a vain prince, Gu Sheng has a lot more partiality towards Gu Xingzhi!
