Chapter 72
Su Zhi drank tea, his eyes were peaceful, full of majesty, and he didn't make a sound to stop him.

The eldest princess valued him very much. For such an important matter as promotion, it was useless for him to run around for many years. He just asked her once and he agreed.

He was promoted back to Beijing and submitted a recommendation list.

However, Zhao Tongzhi has assisted him in managing the government affairs of Youzhou for many years, and he is most familiar with the government affairs of Youzhou. The eldest princess always likes people who do things safely, and Zhao Tongzhi is the best candidate for the established government.

The news brought by Su Minyue is really great news.

For a while, the whole Zhao family was full of joy and laughter.

The next day, Zhao Tongzhi went to the Yamen to work as an errand, and even regarded himself as Futai. Who didn't know that he was about to marry the Su family, and it was not surprising that the Futai position was in his pocket.

On the same day, Su Shirong rode back to Fucheng with several guards.

He didn't go back to Su's house, but went in the opposite direction, a dark street, and stopped in front of the dilapidated mansion.

There are two large characters Zhoufu on the plaque of the mansion house.

Unlike the joyful Zhao family and the prestige of Zhao Tongzhi, the Zhou family is lifeless. Zhou Gu has been removed from his official position by the government and has been at home for many days.

Hearing that Young Master Su came to the door, Zhou Gu was in the study without raising his head: "No see!"

The concierge who made the announcement ran out, but came back quickly, and brought a sentence: "Master Su said that the position of the palace is still undecided!"

"Crack!" Zhou Gu dropped the brush in his hand and stared at the void in disbelief.

Immediately he sneered: "Su's house is very scheming, Mr. Su is a fledgling, can he bite off this piece of meat from his own father?"

Zhou Gu obviously didn't believe it.

However, it made him interested in seeing him.

Su Futai and Mr. Su's father and son turned against each other, and everyone knew about the quarrel, but they didn't know whether Mr. Su would be forced by the pressure of the Su family in the future, and the father and son would reconcile and regret today's act of dismantling the stage?
Su Shiqin knew that Zhou Gu was very young, he was the youngest official in Youzhou, although he was dismissed now and was at home with free time.

But I didn't expect to be so young.

The man was wearing a blue robe, with a tall figure and a handsome face. He was about twenty-seven, and his eyes were clear and sharp like a knife.

Zhou Gu has long admired the name of the eldest son of Su for a long time, and the reputation of the first son of Youzhou is indeed well-deserved.

He didn't have any luxurious decorations on his body, but his aura was as luxurious as jade, elegant and luxurious, and his eyes were open and open.

The two nodded to each other and sat down at the desk.

Zhou Gu accepted the initial contempt, and cut straight to the point: "Young Master Su came to the door today to tell me that Zhao Tongzhi has been planning for many years... Have you had a good time?"

Su Shirong had investigated the official situation in Youzhou a few days ago, and knew that Zhou Gu and the Zhao family had feuds. Because of this, the Zhao family placed Zhou Gu in front of Su Zhi, and Su Zhi removed Zhou Gu from his official position. He has been at home for many days.

Seeing that the tree fell and the monkeys scattered, there were no extra servants in the house, only one porter was left to guard the gate, which shows that the current situation is embarrassing.

Su Shirong nodded: "Yes."

Seeing his determination, Zhou Gu couldn't help laughing: "That's really good news."

After Zhou Gu finished speaking, he clapped his palms again, looked up to the sky and laughed out loud.

Born from a poor family, he studied hard for ten years under the stars and the moon, and was promoted in one move. He went to Youzhou for nine years of hard work. nothing.

God knows how much he hates it!
He once swore that if one day he came to power, he would make Su and Zhao regret their mistakes. Of course, this was a dream.

Zhou Gu got up suddenly and went out, took out a jar of wine and two wine bowls.

Whatever you say, you have to have a drink with Su Shirong.

Su Shirong: "..."

What Zhou Gu took was a jar of strong wine, and after drinking a glass, both of them became refreshed.

Su Shirong continued: "Master Zhou, do you have any plans for the future?"

Zhou Gu sneered: "I'm not an adult anymore. What plans can I have, this house will be bought soon, and I plan to take my sister back to my hometown."

Zhou Gu was born in a poor family, and his hometown is a remote mountain village.

Su Shirong took out 1000 taels of silver bills from his pocket and put them on the table: "Master Zhou is short of money, so take the flowers first."

Looking at the 1000 taels of silver, Zhou Gu finally had a strange look in his eyes: "Eldest Young Master, what does this mean?"

Su Shirong looked frankly: "Master Zhou, is there anything missing?"

Zhou Gu knew that Su Shirong was rich. As for how rich he was, he heard that there was a severe drought in Youzhou one year. His mother alone made the people of Youzhou survive the three-year drought with no crops. What was that like? A fortune, one can imagine.

Su Zhi's popularity in Youzhou is also due to the disaster relief.

However, Zhou Gu is not a money-greedy person, he said coyly: "I want to be a commoner parent official, and I don't care about these things."

Su Shirong nodded: "I can help you too."

Zhou Gu stared at him, thinking that although Mr. Su and the Futai were causing trouble, but where is his identity, if he has some connections, maybe someone can do it if he is an official?
Zhou Gu hesitated and said, "Then... Where does the Eldest Young Master think I am going to work?"

Since it is a position given by others, it must be decided by others where to work.

What's more, it's impossible to be in Youzhou. This is the base of Su Zhi and the Zhao family. He can't stay here, and he will end up miserable if he stays here.

Su Shirong also stared at him and asked, "Are you ready?"

What else do I need to prepare?Do you still want him to kneel down and make an oath to follow his lead from now on?
The purpose of this grace is too strong...

Zhou Gu is a proud person, he really can't kneel down...

Zhou Gu: "My lord...what do you want me to do?"

Su Shirong said seriously: "Get ready, I will take you to meet the eldest princess."

Zhou Gu: "..."

boom!Zhou Gu knelt on the ground unsteadily.

Su Shirong was startled for a moment: "Master Zhou doesn't need to perform such a great gift."

Zhou Gu: I just can't sit still.

Su Shirong supported Zhou Gu to sit back on the chair, and Zhou Gu held his arm tightly: "My lord, you just said... so, where should I go to work?"

Su Shirong let go of him, and smiled slowly: "The government office, the seat of the government office!"

boom!Zhou Gu knelt down again.

Su Shirong: "..."

Su Shirong waited for Zhou Gu to change in the living room, and then followed him to Qingyu Temple.

It was getting late at this time, and Su Shirong vaguely smelled a scent coming to his nostrils. Hearing the sound of footsteps, he turned his head and saw a woman coming in with a tray with two bowls of rice and three side dishes on it.

Seeing him, the woman was not shy, she saluted him, put down her food and left.

Su Shirong looked at the two sets of chopsticks on the table and knew that they were prepared for him and Zhou Gu.

Looking at the smoldering look of the young lady just now, the meal probably came from her hands.

Zhou Gu said that all the servants in the mansion had been dismissed, and there was only one concierge, and that woman should be his own sister. I heard that she was eighteen years old, but she had not married yet.
