"Young master, your majesty has ordered to see his wife."

Lin Shuping came to Liu Zhao and said quietly.

Liu Zhao eyebrow light Cu, "know the reason?"

"It is said that his majesty is worried about the refugees outside the city, so he summoned his wife to inquire about the specific situation."

Liu Zhao shook his head slowly. "The situation of the refugees outside the city is the same as that of Hubu. I'm afraid it's not so easy for the emperor's grandfather to summon Xiao Jiu at this time. "

Lin Shuping said quietly, "young master, is your majesty watching the emperor and grandson?"

"No nonsense."

Lin Shuping quickly pleaded guilty, and then secretly looked at the door, no one eavesdropping.

He added: "if you don't think so, it doesn't mean that other people don't think so. Madame's ability is second to none among the numerous Royal and grandsons' wives. His majesty always attaches great importance to his wife. At this very moment, your majesty suddenly summoned his wife. Isn't it meaningful? "

Liu Zhao stares at Lin Shuping, "even if there is a deep meaning, you have to hide your guess without any trace."

Childe's eyes are so frightening.

Lin Shuping shivered for a moment, "old slave, remember what you taught me."

Liu Zhao also said: "go outside and watch. Don't let anyone in."

"Yes, old slave."

People come and go in the Yamen of the military department.

Liu Zhao sat in the ward as if he were an old monk. No one knew what he was thinking.

……

Gu Jiu came to Xingqing palace smoothly all the way. After being informed, he followed the internal servant to the palace to see the emperor.

He had known that the son of heaven had apoplexy and hemiplegia. When she saw it with her own eyes, she found that the situation of the emperor was more serious than she had imagined.

"Sun's daughter-in-law comes to see your majesty!"

"No gift. Get up and talk. "

"Thank you."

Gu Jiu stands up, head slightly low, to show respect.

The rest of his eyes are paying attention to the movement of the son of heaven.

If the emperor's right hand could not move, he would not be able to read the memorial, so he could only let someone write for him.

But listen to the voice, the emperor's speech is still clear. It's a lot better than the vagueness of the rumor.

It seems that the doctors in the hospital have taken out the real ability to regulate the body for the emperor.

"What's going on outside the south gate?"

The emperor asked gently.

Gu Jiu slightly bowed down, "Your Majesty, everything is going according to the plan. At present, half of the refugees have moved into new houses. The remaining half of the refugees will move into their new houses by March and April at the latest after this winter. "

"Oh! You surprised me. I didn't expect things to go so smoothly. You not only solved the problem of feeding the refugees, but also let them live in new houses. Great

"Thanks to your Majesty's good fortune, the refugees will have a chance to live in new houses."

The emperor wanted to laugh, but he couldn't.

He ha ha two, since stroke, rare happy once.

"You are very capable."

Gu Jiu a face of fear, "Sun daughter-in-law is just a little bit better than ordinary people."

The emperor waved, "you get closer, let me have a good look at you."

Gu Jiu has a strange feeling in his heart and subconsciously looks up at the emperor.

The emperor's eyes are kind.

She looked at Chen Dachang again.

Chen Dachang stands beside the bed like a piece of wood. When his majesty doesn't need him, he will consciously reduce his sense of existence.

Gu Jiu takes a deep breath and walks forward slowly.

"Get closer."

Gu Jiu continues to move forward until he is two steps away from the Dragon bed.

This is a relatively safe distance.

The emperor raised his head and looked at her face, as if to find something.

Then, Gu Jiu heard a proposition.

"Have you ever thought about the project outside the south gate when the new emperor takes over the throne?"

Gu Jiu was shocked.

Even Chen Dachang, who was calm and restrained, changed his face slightly.

Gu Jiu's mouth is dry and his tongue is dry. "Your Majesty's Hong Fu Qi Tian will surely live a long life."

Besides, any answer is to die.

I'm working hard for Nanzi, because you can support the project. When I am no longer here, the new Emperor may not give you an opportunity to continue operating outside the south gate. "

Gu Jiu is sweating hard. She can't figure out the meaning of the emperor's piercing the window paper.

Is it to test her, or to see her joke.

"Don't be afraid. I'm not going to scare you." The emperor suddenly appeases Gu Jiu.

Gu Jiu feels strange at the moment.

This is not the son of heaven in her mind.

In the impression of the emperor, who will care about other people's life and death.

"Thank you, your majesty." She showed her weakness appropriately.

The emperor took a breath and continued: "outside the South Gate of the city, you have managed it very well. Tens of thousands of refugees can be properly resettled. This is a great achievement. No one can deny your credit. But just in case, I have to make some preparations in advance. "Gu Jiu is nervous.

She glanced at Chen Dachang secretly.

Obviously, Chen Dachang didn't know in advance that the son of heaven would talk so deeply. He simply had no scruples.

"If you have any thoughts on the south gate, please do not hesitate to ask."

Gu Jiu took a deep breath, "outside the south gate, it's up to your majesty."

"Oh! Don't you worry that after a hundred years, the new emperor will embarrass you and forbid you to continue to operate the project outside nanchengmen? "

Gu Jiu said: "in order to manage the Nancheng gate, sun's daughter-in-law raised hundreds of thousands of Liang and borrowed 3 million liang from Shaofu bank. If someone in the palace doesn't let his daughter-in-law continue to operate, she won't be able to borrow millions of yuan. "

"It may not work if you threaten people with money." The emperor seemed very happy. Maybe it's because Gu Jiu didn't play tricks and always told the truth.

Gu Jiu bowed down and said, "in addition, it's the court's turn to worry about how to settle tens of thousands of refugees outside the city."

The emperor nodded, "refugees are the most boring thing for court officials. They hoped that even if the refugees died of starvation, they would die of starvation at home. They would not add chaos to the government and do not go out to make trouble.

However, no one is willing to wait for death. The common people can not live in their hometown, so they can only escape from the famine and become refugees. In the past, the refugees who had fled to the capital would have to rely on a meal of porridge every day.

When it was warm in spring, the government forced them to drive them away. Year after year, it's been like this. No one cares how many refugees died of disease and hunger during this period. It's you who changed that. "

Gu Jiucheng panicked, "Sun daughter-in-law needs a lot of labor to build a house. There are a lot of young laborers among those refugees, which is a pity to waste. "

The emperor nodded approvingly, "you're right. It's not only a waste to leave those young laborers unused, but also to see them go up the mountain as bandits. It's amazing that you can organize the young laborers among the refugees and keep them in their own positions. "

"Sun's daughter-in-law is not as good as your majesty said. Sun's daughter-in-law just happened to meet her and did what she should do. "

In front of the emperor, Gu Jiu should be modest.

The emperor laughed and said, "just in case, I plan to set up a county outside the gate of Nancheng in advance. If you have any ideas, please tell me."

Gu Jiu's heart beats faster and his palms sweat.

Coming, coming!

Finally, we will set up a county outside the south gate.

She took a deep breath and said calmly as much as possible: "Your Majesty really wants to set up a county outside the south city gate. Sun's daughter-in-law has only one request."

"Say it

"My daughter-in-law hopes that the person I recommend will be the first magistrate of this county. The South Gate project will continue, and sun's daughter-in-law doesn't want anyone to hold back. "

The emperor laughed, "you don't hide yourself at all."

Gu Jiu bowed his head and said: "in front of his majesty, sun's daughter-in-law dare not play coloratura."

The emperor asked, "who do you want to recommend as the first county magistrate?"

Gu Jiu took a deep breath, repressed his emotions and said calmly as far as possible: "sun's daughter-in-law recommended Gu Yu as the first county magistrate."

"Why recommend him?"

Gu Jiu said calmly: "he has a great reputation. He has been following my father's side for many years. He is very familiar with people's livelihood and economy. He is also experienced in dealing with disputes among the people. With his knowledge and ability, he could not be a senior official of the imperial court, but he was definitely the best candidate for the county magistrate. No one is more suitable for this position than he is

"Oh! Where is he now? "

"He is now working as an official in the Ministry of housing and a petty official of eight grades."

The emperor laughed, "eight grade petty officials, as a seven grade county magistrate, is not shocking. I will consider the person you recommend. "

Gu Jiu could not hide the excitement, "sun's daughter-in-law thanks your majesty for Gu Yu, the elder brother of the family."

"Don't be happy too soon. There is a county outside the south gate, many people are staring at the position of the county magistrate. Your brother is just a man of high reputation. He has no other advantages but rich experience. "

Gu Jiu said, "these granddaughter-in-law all know. So your majesty has to take care of it. "

The emperor looked at her, "are you sure I will help you?"

Gu Jiu blinked, "I believe your majesty does not want the resettlement of refugees outside the south gate to be abandoned halfway. Moreover, with the news of the capital spreading all over the world, more and more refugees will pour into the capital in the future.

Without sun's daughter-in-law, these refugees would be like in the past, hanging their lives on a meal of porridge every day, and they would be driven away at the beginning of spring. They would either die or become bandits and bring disaster to the place. "

"The son of heaven ha ha two," you pour is not modest at all. "

Gu Jiu was busy lowering his head, "sun's daughter-in-law is just telling the truth."

The emperor waved and told all the attendants to step down.

Chen Dachang looks suspicious.

"Step back!" The emperor is a little impatient.

Chen Dachang with people, quickly bowed down.

What does the emperor mean?

Only Madame Zhao was left to speak in the bedroom. What would the emperor say? Is it necessary to account for the future?

Or is it about the crown prince?Chen Dachang's various thoughts turn in his mind, and he has worries in his heart.

It is very rare that the emperor will drive him out and leave him alone to speak.

He was a little uneasy.

Gu Jiu is also upset.

What does the son of heaven mean?

What's the point of leaving her alone?

Is it still time for her to leave now?

Never give a proposition!

She has only a small life. She really doesn't want to die.

She was also looking forward to a long life.

"Your Majesty?"

"Don't panic. I just want to say something."

At the moment, the emperor is a sick old man. It's no use what the emperor is.

"Sit down, stand tired. I look up at you and feel tired. "

"Thank you, your majesty."

Gu Jiu sat down on the bench beside the bed, especially upright.

The emperor took a breath. He talked a little more today.

"Among so many princes, who do you think is suitable to inherit the great unification?"

Gu Jiu:

They all said not to send her a proposition. How dare she answer such a deadly question. She's not tired of living.

She looked terrified, "the establishment of the crown prince is related to the country, the country and the country's destiny for a hundred years. Sun's daughter-in-law is a woman who can't talk about it. Your majesty, you might as well call the courtiers together for discussion. "

"No harm! Now there is no third person. You can say what you want. I forgive you for your innocence. Even if you say that King Ning is the crown prince, I understand. "

The emperor looked expectantly at Gu Jiu.

Gu Jiu pressure mountain big, "Sun daughter-in-law does not understand national affairs, do not know who is suitable for inheriting Datong."

"Oh? I don't think you're telling the truth. "

"What sun's daughter-in-law said is true. She dare not deceive her majesty."

The emperor laughed, "I want to hear your true truth."

Gu Jiu lowered her head. She didn't dare to tell the truth.

"If you don't tell the truth, I can't let you go."

The emperor suddenly accentuated the tone, as if it were a threat.

Gu Jiu felt aggrieved.

"Your Majesty really wants to hear the truth from sun's daughter-in-law? But the truth is not pleasant. "

The emperor tried to make a smile and said, "I live to this day, do you think I will still care about the words?"? Now I just want to hear the truth, not flattery. "

Gu Jiu nodded, "I know."

"Will you tell me the truth?"

Gu Jiu thought about it for a while and said, "sun's daughter-in-law doesn't know about Wang's uncles. If she wants to say who is suitable for inheriting Datong, she has no answer in her heart. It's true. "

"What about King Ning?" Asked the emperor.

Gu Jiu shakes his head, "sun's daughter-in-law is not sure whether the Lord is suitable."

"No prince is suitable for you?"

Gu Jiu nodded, "in my eyes, no one is suitable for inheriting Datong. Because no one is born to be king. "

The emperor laughed, "you said this is equal to did not say, you this is obviously opportunistic."

Gu Jiu looks innocent. "This is the truth of sun's daughter-in-law. Sun's daughter-in-law doesn't think that someone is born to sit in that position. They are all trained by the day after tomorrow.

But even after receiving the training, when you really sit in that position, there will still be problems like this or that. In the final analysis, as an emperor, the test is the ability of leadership and balance. "

The emperor nodded, "there's some truth in that. It seems that I am a failed father and emperor, and I have failed to cultivate a qualified successor. "

Gu Jiu buried his head very low and felt that he was dying.

She even said so many treacherous words in front of the emperor. The emperor will not settle accounts after autumn.

The emperor stares at her, "who is the best among the short, many princes?"

Gu Jiu shakes his head, "Sun daughter-in-law doesn't know."

She really doesn't know.

She is a generation apart from all the princes, and she has seen one or two sides all year round. She can't talk about it, and there is no way to understand it.

If you don't know, you can judge by what.

She felt that the son of heaven must be in his head. It's not appropriate to ask her a layman for such a big matter.

If you want to ask, you should also ask the Minister of civil and military affairs.

Although the ministers of civil and military affairs had selfish intentions, they had frequent contact with the princes and understood their character and ability.

The emperor laughed, "don't you know? In fact, I don't know. "

In the past, the emperor thought he knew every son.

Now, in the face of the succession of the throne and the need to select an heir as soon as possible, the emperor suddenly found that he did not really know his sons.

Do not understand, how to make a choice?

Gu Jiu can't help but be silent.

The emperor is also silent.

In the bedroom, the atmosphere was a little oppressive, which made her breathless.I don't know how long after that, the emperor opened his eyes and looked at her, "well manage the project outside the South Gate of the city, do everything with all my heart, and don't let down my expectations for you."

"My daughter-in-law obeys the order!"

"Step back!"

"Your Majesty, take care of yourself, and sun's daughter-in-law will leave."

Gu Jiu bows down to leave the palace, and is completely relieved.

"Come back!"

Gu Jiu shivered and looked back at the emperor.

It was about to leave, and the son of heaven was crazy and asked her to come back.

The emperor stared at her, "I heard that Liu Zhao didn't have a concubine. Is it your reason or his reason?"

Gu Jiumeng for a while, blink of an eye to return to God, calm said: "maybe sun daughter-in-law more reasons."

The emperor frowned, "did you not let him take a concubine?"

Gu Jiu nods boldly, without denying.

The emperor wondered, "why? Liu Zhao is the emperor's grandson. He doesn't even have a concubine's room around him. It's not like words. "

Gu Jiu took a deep breath and ventured to say, "sun's daughter-in-law does not allow the young master to order concubines because she does not allow anyone to threaten the interests of my child. Not even a common woman. "

"You think so." "The emperor means to say without knowing," Liu Zhao's identity is the emperor's grandson, he can't do without concubine room. "

Gu Jiu said: "if the childe orders to take concubines, then I will do anything to ensure the interests of me and the children."

"How can you do anything by hook or by crook?"

Gu Jiu chuckled softly, "I have money, money can make the devil move the mill. I've spilled a lot of money. If I don't believe it, I can't solve just a few women. "

The emperor laughed, and the smile was natural, "you are confident. Step back

"Thank you, your majesty."
