The next day.

The golden sunlight enveloped the entire Chang'an City, and soon, the sun was high in the sky.

Maybe it was too tiring to be in Linjiang City these days, or maybe it was too comfortable to massage the green radish, so Gao Yang slept until almost noon.

It was also fortunate that the Duke Dingguo's Mansion did not pay attention to these rules.

After waking up, Gao Yang was full of energy.

There were no toothbrushes in ancient times, so people could only use simple toothbrushes made of willow branches and rinse their mouths with green salt water.

"Let's go to the brothel to listen to music!"

"Today, I must go to the Rouge Pavilion, and no one can stop me."

Gao Yang took the remaining silver and was about to go out.

Uncle Fu saw Gao Yang and hurried forward, "Young Master, where are you going?"

Gao Yang patted the small box containing silver, "Isn't it obvious that I have shown it? I am going to the brothel to listen to music."

The corner of Uncle Fu's mouth twitched, and he shook his head and said, "Young Master, you can't go now."

When Gao Yang heard this, he exploded instantly.

"Why?"

"Give me a reason."

To put it in a small way, going to Yanzhi Pavilion is to appreciate the customs and customs of Chang'an, Daqian. To put it in a big way, this is related to his club business and the happiness of all Daqian men!

You are not allowed to go?

Uncle Fu hurriedly said, "Today, there are distinguished guests in the mansion. The old Duke specifically asked the young master to wait aside to learn the art of war."

"Learn the art of war?" Gao Yang's face was strange.

He remembered that he was a poison scholar, and it seemed that he came from a family of generals!

It was indeed a bit unreasonable that he didn't know some art of war.

"If you want to listen to music in the brothel, you should wait until the distinguished guests leave before going. And..." Uncle Fu looked at the small box in Gao Yang's arms and continued, "You are not going to listen to music, you are going to spend the night."

Gao Yang blushed.

"Really? Then this young master does not understand."

In response, Uncle Fu just smiled and said nothing.

After Gao Yang put the silver back, he came out to get some food and chatted with Uncle Fu while eating.

"Uncle Fu, at your age, you really understand the way."

Gao Yang looked at Uncle Fu's hair, which was a little gray, and couldn't help teasing.

Uncle Fu said modestly, "Young Master, you are too kind, I just understand a little bit."

Just as the two were chatting.

The voice of the servant suddenly resounded throughout the Dingguo Mansion.

"General Qin Zhenguo of the Right Guard has arrived!"

"General Lu Zhen of the Left Guard has arrived!"

"Protector Zhao Po Nu has arrived!"

Soon, several generals of the Daqian military, led by Qin Zhenguo, entered the Dingguo Mansion together.

Gao Feng followed behind them. Gao Feng was polite and led the way. It was really because he was a generation younger than them that he could not talk to them at all.

Gao Tianlong sat in the middle of the hall, drinking a cup of hot tea in his hand, with a smile on his old face.

When the few people saw Gao Tianlong, they all bowed and saluted.

Gao Tianlong smiled, put down the teacup and said, "We have a good relationship, so there is no need to be polite. After a hundred years, the Dingguo Mansion will still trouble you to take care of it."

Because they were very close and they were all veterans who fought for Daqian together, Gao Tianlong spoke very naturally.

The few people did not refuse.

For them, it is not only about their own friendship, but also about the current military generals’ declining power. No matter who dies first, they should take care of each other’s descendants.

Qin Zhenguo’s hair is gray, and he said meaningfully, “Old Duke, it should be the Duke Ding’s Mansion that takes care of us in the future.”

Lu Zhen is very rough and has a loud voice. He said carelessly, “Yes, my dear, your kid’s performance these days makes even me panic!”

“The living hell of merchants, the living hell of locusts, and now the living hell of corrupt officials!”

They are all military generals in the army, so there is no need to beat around the bush when talking, and they speak directly and generously.

Gao Tianlong was stunned, and a trace of doubt appeared on his old face.

“I know a thing or two about the living hell of merchants and locusts, but how can I talk about the living hell of corrupt officials?”

Gao Tianlong asked.

Qin Zhenguo picked up a cup of tea, took a sip and said, "In the morning court, His Majesty announced that grain would be transported to Guanzhong for disaster relief, but some sand would be added to the grain!"

"One stone caused a thousand waves, and all the officials were furious. Prince Rong was also in the court. He was the first to stand up and accuse His Majesty of being harsh on the people and being a tyrant!"

"Then, thirteen imperial censors spoke out together in anger, and even stated on the spot that if His Majesty insisted on doing it his own way, they would crash into the Golden Palace and die!"

Gao Tianlong was surprised, and even looked a little solemn.

Gao

Yang was right. Prince Rong was indeed dishonest. This was a coup.

"Your Majesty should not be so confused!"

Gao Tianlong said, frowning.

Upon hearing this, the three of them burst into laughter.

"Confused?"

Qin Zhenguo laughed loudly, his voice like a bell: "Old Duke, not only do you think so, but we also think so, but everything that happened next shocked all of us."

"Your Majesty said that if there is sand mixed in the grain, it cannot be sold at a high price in the market, and corrupt officials will not eat rice mixed with sand. Corrupt officials along the way will not risk their heads to embezzle disaster relief grain if they have no profit!"

"In this way, the people affected by the disaster will have more hope of survival. When this was said, we were simply stunned!"

"The thirteen censors who pleaded for the people, as well as Prince Rong, Xu Xiang and others, all turned green. It was so exciting!"

Hiss!

Gao Tianlong was shocked.

He had experienced too many wars and too many sufferings of the people in his life. He could almost conclude that this method was feasible!

Who would take risks if there was no profit?

This plan was really a good plan for corrupt officials!

But he realized the key point of the problem, "But this is your majesty's method, how can it involve Yang'er?"

Zhao Po Nu, the Duke of the Protectorate, said, "Your majesty's character is known to the whole court and the country. Such a sinister but actually a plan to save the people must not have come from your majesty!"

"Although your majesty did not say it directly, everyone in the court and the country knew that yesterday afternoon, your majesty left your eldest grandson alone, and no one knew what the two said."

"In Daqian, who else could come up with such a sinister method except Gao Yang of the Duke of Dingguo's Mansion?"

Gao Tianlong smiled.

He also nodded.

He knew the empress's temperament, and this plan was not from her.

It seemed that it was from Gao Yang!

This stinky boy didn't even tell him about this vicious plan in advance, which made him lose his composure.

That one thousand taels of silver was wasted!

But Gao Tianlong's face was full of smiles.

It was like a group of parents chatting together, listening to other parents talking about their excellent offspring, this kind of satisfaction was simply beyond words.

One word to sum it up, cool!

Two words to sum it up, really cool!

Seven words to sum it up, your mother's servant, it's so cool!

Qin Zhenguo said in a loud voice, "Old Duke, call your dandy grandson here and let me see him."

"This is the first time I've seen Prince Rong so embarrassed. Today I must ask him how he went from being a famous dandy in Chang'an to a unicorn!"

Zhao Po Nu also said, "Yes, I'll ask him too, so I can go back and teach the unworthy descendants in the mansion a lesson."

Gao Tianlong looked at the servants and said, "Go call Yang'er."

Lü Zhen took a sip of tea and said with some dissatisfaction, "Old Duke, you are not kind. A unicorn appeared in the mansion, and you use this tea to treat us?"

"Why don't you quickly bring out the good tea in the mansion."

Gao Tianlong laughed and scolded, "You are picky, I really have something to say. I have a little good tea. I will give you some to try today."

Lü Zhen laughed loudly, showing his heroic spirit. "We have survived many battles on the battlefield. You and I have crawled out of the dead. We have fought all our lives. What's wrong with enjoying it now?"

Qin Zhenguo and Zhao Po Nu also nodded in unison. "Yes, this tea is bitter. We should change it to good tea!"

Gao Feng's heart moved. He stepped forward and said, "A few days ago, my son went to Linjiang City. Because he contributed to the reduction of grain prices, the local county magistrate Du Jiang specially sent a box of tea."

"Although my son is a playboy, he is filial. He brought it back to honor me and my father. Until today, it has not been opened. Today, I will taste it with all the old generals."

"Come here, take the tea box from the innermost layer of the cabinet in my room!"
