Chapter 500

Your majesty.

Gu Jiu can only put down everything on hand and rush to the palace.

Come to Xingqing palace again.

Xingqing palace is still that Xingqing palace, but the people inside have changed.

I don't know where the familiar faces have gone.

Now, Gu Jiu is more familiar with the people who serve the emperor Wende in the palace, headed by Chang en.

There are even two servants who used to serve in the imperial palace. They choose to clean themselves and become internal servants.

Gu Jiu shakes her head. She doesn't understand. A good boy, with her previous affection with Wende, has a good future. Why choose the most difficult road.

Is it really better to be a eunuch than to be a normal person outside the palace?

She stood under the eaves, the hall door closed.

Suddenly there was a roar from Vander, "get out of here!"

Eh?

Who's in there?

Gu Jiuchao leads her to a certain servant in the palace.

The inner minister looked at the nose and the heart, said nothing, and even lacked a look.

She found that these eunuchs were talking all the time outside. Once back in Xingqing palace, they all become gourds with sawing mouths, so they can't talk easily.

The main hall door opened from inside, and she saw Liu Zhao come out.

She blinked her eyes. Was it Liu Zhao who just said "get out of here"?

What did Liu Zhao do? Emperor Wende scolded him so bitterly.

When Liu Zhao came out of the hall, she stepped forward and asked in a low voice, "what's going on?"

While speaking, her eyes subconsciously swept toward the hall.

Several big men are in it, and so is Liu Yi.

Liu is kneeling in the center of the hall, the big men are silent.

Liu Zhao looked calm, "it's OK. My father is busy today. You may have to wait for a while

Gu Jiu simply took Liu Zhao and came to the side hall.

The usher, who led the way, was puffing at the corners of his eyes.

Madam Zhao, are you too casual.

This is Xingqing palace, not Ning palace.

Gu Jiuquan didn't see the deathbed expression of the Chamberlain.

Liu Zhao bowed his head and laughed. Inexplicably, he was in a bad mood and suddenly became happy.

"Tell me, is it because of the business tax and impeachment of the imperial censor that my father and Emperor will scold you?"

Gu Jiu has some remorse and some guilt.

A tourist tax is a good thing. Because of her status, she has attracted so many impeachments.

It is said that the memorial to impeachment should be carried in a basket every day.

All the imperial historians in the world, both inside and outside the capital, were concentrating their firepower on impeachment of the couple.

Son of a bitch!

Gu Jiu is very angry.

People say that drinking water is the source of thinking.

While enjoying the benefits of the tourist tax, the imperial censors turned their pens into knives, killing her as a well digger.

They are all white eyed wolves.

Gu Jiu is about to vomit blood.

Liu Zhao laughed, carrying people behind his back, secretly kissed her face, "I'm ok."

"How can it be ok. Your majesty scolded you and told you to get out in front of those courtiers. You are a great prince. How disgraceful. "

Liu Zhao said: "a mere face is nothing."

Gu Jiu frowned, "are you going to learn from your majesty and become a shameless person completely?"

Liu Zhao chuckled and felt more and more happy.

He said: "my father called in the palace not only for the sake of tourist tax. Those who have eyes can see that travel tax is a good thing. Those imperial censors are just picking bones from eggs and staring at our prince's impeachment.

My father's heart was clear. Since he saw the benefits of the tourist tax, he could not give up. If you can't give up, you can't be punished. At most, he ordered a reprimand or two, which could be regarded as an explanation to the courtiers.

As you know, my father has been on the throne for only a few months, and his position is not stable. Those imperial censors impeached us, but they were trying to give our father the power. My father will not be cheated by them and be led by their nose. "

Gu Jiu suddenly realized that she said that the business tax was such a good thing, how could Wende emperor allow those imperial historians to make trouble. It turned out to be just acting.

"You just said that the emperor asked you to enter the palace, not only for the sake of tourist tax? Is there a new job for you? "

Liu Zhao deliberated, "in recent years, natural disasters have continued everywhere, and there are people fleeing from the famine. Many of them became bandits and plundered everywhere.

Although these bandits and bandits are not of a large scale, they are just making small noises, but they have caused great damage to the local area.

Over the past few years, the following has suffered a lot. The tax revenue is less and less year by year. The business routes are also affected, and the prices are extremely high. The father and Emperor are determined to rectify the situation and plan to send troops to sweep the past and thoroughly solve the frequent banditry in various places. "

"Did you take the job?" Gu Jiu is a little nervous.Liu Zhao did not hide, "I volunteered to take the job."

Gu Jiu frowned, "this kind of banditry is not of scale. It's obviously overqualified to lead the army in person to eliminate chaos. In addition, banditry is a small group of small stocks, extremely dispersed, and flexible. Although it is not large-scale, it is extremely time-consuming to completely exterminate them.

If you go there, there will be no achievements in two or three years. In your capacity, how can you leave Beijing for two or three years. Tell me the truth, have you kept something from me

Liu Zhao hugged her and did not let her see the expression on her face.

He is proud.

Xiao Jiu can always detect the truth from the details.

He is also worried.

Xiao Jiu is too clever to be a blessing.

He whispered in her ear: "I will take the opportunity to go to the south of the Yangtze River, and I will return to Beijing before the end of the year at the latest. I'll take Qian Fu away, but I'll leave you a few others. "

Gu Jiu tried to push him away, but he didn't.

Liu Zhao still held her tightly, "don't move."

Gu Jiu was angry and asked quietly, "what are you doing in Jiangnan? Is there any banditry in Jiangnan? "

"But there are water masters in the south of the Yangtze River. Don't you say you want to build a water army? I secretly asked my father for his will. My father allowed me to reorganize the Navy and build a water army in Dazhou

Gu Jiu's expression moved. She wanted to ask Liu Zhao, is it because of Zhou Jin? Are you ready to turn Zhou Jin.

However, the words out turned out to be, "you, can you swim? What sea are you going to, a dry duck. I'm afraid that if I get on the boat, I'll throw up all over the place and I can't get up. "

Liu Zhao chuckled, "can't you say something nice?"

Gu Jiu snorted and asked, "when will you leave?"

"Next month."

There are still more than 20 days to calculate the time.

Gu Jiu sighed, "well, you are the prince. Naturally, you can't stay in the mansion every day. If you want to go, I'll watch for you on this side of the capital. "

"Thank you, lady."

"Don't talk nonsense. Don't act impulsively until you're sure. I know you want to kill him, but the sea is still his territory. In a word, you can't walk under the dangerous wall. Otherwise, my wife will remarry with her children. "

Liu Zhao bit her earlobe, "you will die and remarry. In this life, you are my man, and death is my ghost."

"Go away!"

Gu Jiu is very depressed.

The Chamberlain comes to remind Gu Jiu that it's her turn and hurry to the main hall.

Liu Zhao was willing to let her go.

She laughed. "I'm in."

"Go ahead."

Gu Jiu turns to leave.

Liu Zhao's eyes gradually cooled down.

He has got the exact news that Zhou Jin has returned to the sea a few months ago and continues to be a pirate.

How Zhou Jin escaped capture and left the capital is unknown to Liu Zhao.

However, this does not affect his determination to kill Zhou Jin.

Since Zhou Jin likes beauties so much, he sends a beauty to him. He wanted to see if Zhou Jin could take it.

……

When Gu Jiu enters the hall, he first asks for an salute.

"No gift!"

Emperor Wende was full of air.

Gu Jiu stealthily glances around his eyes. Liu Yi is already gone, and some of the court lords are not there.

She stood quietly in the center of the hall. Wende did not ask questions, and she never took the initiative to speak.

In any case, it is not wrong to adhere to the principle of saying less and making fewer mistakes.

See Gu Jiu like a saw mouth gourd, words are not a word, Wende emperor hummed, "eldest daughter-in-law, do you know why I call you into the palace?"

"My daughter-in-law, I wonder if my father can give me a hint." Gu Jiu is very honest.

Emperor Wende can see Gu Jiu pretending to be stupid.

He asked directly, "how do you say that you have stretched your hand too long for impeachment and dare to interfere in the affairs of the Ministry of household affairs?"

Gu Jiu looks innocent, "it's really unjust. The daughter-in-law's hand has never reached into the Ministry of housing. Impeachment by the imperial censor is purely out of thin air. If we change people, change people who are not so sensitive, and give advice to the Ministry of accounts and get it adopted, will those imperial historians impeach them? "

Emperor Wende laughed, "you are a prince's wife, not an ordinary person. The imperial historian naturally requires you to follow the most strict standards. Don't be convinced. You enjoy the worship of the imperial court. You should be supervised by the court. "

Gu jiuzuixiao said, "the annual salary of the daughter-in-law is only 1800 Liang, plus 500 Shilu meters. This kind of sacrifice can not bear the fierce supervision of the imperial historians. "

"Are you complaining?" said Vander

Gu Jiu shakes his head, "daughter-in-law dare not complain, daughter-in-law just states the facts."

"So you don't think you're wrong?"

"The daughter-in-law is wrong." Gu Jiu confessed his mistake simply. "The daughter-in-law's fault is that he should not give advice to the Minister of the Ministry of housing. He should watch the Ministry of housing continue to be poor and those idle officials continue to be in arrears with their salaries.""Presumptuous!"

Emperor Wende yelled and Gu Jiu trembled.

Only a few months ago, Emperor Wende seems to be a little more dignified than when he was a prince last year.

Indeed, it is the migration of Qi to nourish the body.

As an emperor, Wende's temperament changed from inside to outside.

Gu Jiu wronged very much, simply did not speak.

After Wende was angry, he looked at Gu Jiu's aggrieved appearance and laughed again.

"What's wrong with you? Liu Zhao didn't dare to be wronged. Why do you feel wronged? "

Gu Jiu's eyes are red, "the daughter-in-law doesn't know how to solve the difficulties for the Ministry of housing, but it's also wrong. Next time, the daughter-in-law must pay attention to propriety and keep a distance from all the people in the household department. "

Wende Di snorted coldly, "don't say angry words. You solved the difficulties for the Ministry of public security, and I remember your contribution. I heard that you want to build roads, and use that cement to build roads? "

Gu Jiu said, nodding, "I had this idea before. But now my daughter-in-law has changed her mind and she doesn't want to build roads. "

"Why not build roads?"

"The daughter-in-law is afraid of impeachment and implicates Liu Zhao. If your majesty wants to build a road, his daughter-in-law will sell the cement to the imperial court at cost. It doesn't matter even to give your Majesty the formula of the cement. "

Emperor Wende looked at Gu Jiu strangely in his eyes, "the recipe that was not easy to get out is really willing to give it to me for nothing?"

"Nature is willing."

If we don't build roads, we'll continue to build houses. Building a house with cement is strong and fast.

Wende Di secretly rolled his eyes and said solemnly, "you are a serious slacker."

Gu Jiu is silent. She is wronged by the heaven. She doesn't want to do anything. She just wants to go home and teach her husband and children.

Wendedi pointed to her and was very dissatisfied.

"This first road is still for you to repair."

"My daughter-in-law can't fix it."

"Fart!" Wende is a kind-hearted man, "don't lose your temper in front of me. If you make such a big trouble, I will be grateful if I don't punish you. The first road is from the capital to Luozhou. Try it out first. "

Luozhou, located in the middle of the Empire, is an important hub city linking the capital city and the south of the Yangtze River. It is the second most populous city in Dazhou.

Luozhou is rich in water and soil resources, fertile land, flat. It is a unique place, rich since ancient times.

The only drawback is that in the face of war, there is no place to escape.

Such a rich place naturally attracts a lot of people.

Many families and big men in the capital have established property in Luozhou.

Luozhou academy is well-known in the world. There is even a slight pressure over the capital of the Imperial College.

The decision of emperor Wende to build a cement road from the capital to Luozhou was obviously deliberate.

If we want to build it, we should build the cement road with the greatest economic value.

From the capital to Luozhou, it is 800 li of mountains and rivers. With the present productivity, this is a huge project, which costs millions of money and food.

Gu Jiu asked, "it's a big project from Beijing to Luozhou. Does your majesty really want her daughter-in-law to pay for the road construction? The government should pay for the project of benefiting the people. "

The villain Wende said, "the court has no money. You don't know that the warehouse of Hubu can run rats. If you have a way to draw money from other places, I will support it. I can also take a few hundred thousand taels from my private Treasury and give it to you to build this road. "

Gu Jiu secretly bared his teeth and then asked, "does your majesty agree with the establishment of toll stations?"

"There's a toll gate in fifty miles. I can promise. But toll booth guys, we have to give priority to veterans. It's not negotiable. "

When Wende Di saw Gu Jiu's road construction plan, a toll station of 50 Li was set above, and he immediately thought of the post station delivery.

This toll station can be used for the communication of imperial court letters. During the war, it can play a more defensive role.

That's why vanderty asked for the priority of veterans as toll station employees.

"The daughter-in-law has no objection and can give priority to veterans. What's the fifty year period? "

Gu Jiu doubted the emperor's credit, but still set the charging period in the plan according to the rules.

Fifty years.

Fifty years later, the road was handed over to the imperial court.

It's up to the court to continue charging or free passage.

There are many hidden rules in the court, but Gu Jiu is more willing to spread these hidden rules in the sun, so we can make a contract.

Even if one day someone breaks the contract, it doesn't matter. It's like spending money on lessons.

These days, to do something, we have to pay tuition fees. Especially when dealing with the imperial court.

It's not a strange thing to change from day to day.

Wende said, "fifty years is no good. I can only give you 30 years."

"Forty five years." Gu Jiu bargained.Emperor Wende frowned, "thirty five years."

Gu Jiu said, "forty years, no less. Your majesty, you can't tell a horse to run without feeding it. It costs millions to build a road. After a chariot and horse, they only charge three Wen. I have to receive the year and month before I can recover the capital.

Your majesty, please don't let your daughter-in-law do business at a loss, or in the future, who will be willing to do this injustice and pay the court to repair roads. "

Wende emperor see Gu Jiu said pitifully, "really do not make money?"

"What kind of money do you make? If you don't lose money, you make money."

"Then why do you build roads?"

Gu Jiu said honestly: "just want to sell cement, let people know the wonderful use of cement. Maybe some aristocratic families are willing to pay their own money to build a road in front of their homes. Although mosquito meat is small, it is also meat. "

Wende Di nodded and believed Gu Jiu's words.

It was not until the next year, when the cement road was repaired and he learned of the monthly income of the toll station, that Wende Di knew that he had been fooled by Gu Jiu. Then, a mouthful of old blood almost came out.

What does not make money, what does not lose money is to earn, all are false, false.

Toll stations are very profitable, OK.

From the capital to Luozhou, the golden road of Dazhou fell into the hands of Gu Jiu for 40 years.

Every time Wende thought of it, he regretted it.

He was buried in a pit dug by Gu Jiu. How unreasonable.

Since then, Emperor Wende has set up his own cement plant, built roads and set up toll stations. Not even Soup for Gu Jiu.

Fortunately, Gu Jiu holds the road to gold production and doesn't care about the soup and water.

This is the later part of the story.
