Chapter 874 877. It's a disease

Gu Benluo was envious for a moment, but he understood his own choice more clearly.

Now seeing that his mother blamed herself for this matter, he said, “Besides, Cancan has put all his heart and soul into this, and this is what he deserves.

Mother, let me put it another way. According to the old rules, I will inherit most of the family assets in the future. Isn't this unfair to my second brother?"

Jin Qianqian looked at her hands in a daze. This is really a historical problem. She just wants to ask, is there any mother in the world who can truly treat everyone equally?

Instead of being comforted, she fell into self-blame.

At this moment, Gu Benluo especially hoped that his father would be by his side, as he really couldn't do the job of comforting others.

"Mother, let's not think about these things. My second brother is being conferred a title. Although we shouldn't hold a big celebration right now, I think some people will come to congratulate him. Do you want to arrange it first?"

Jin Qianqian had been the head of the household for many years, so she naturally knew what was going on. She didn't expect that this time she would need her son to remind her. "I'll ask the housekeeper to take care of the preparations! You will go to the ancestral worship ceremony on behalf of your second brother. He definitely won't be able to come back during this period of time."

Go to Beijing

Now, no matter who sees Gu Wenheng, they will be jealous. A young boy wants to be on equal footing with them, and some even ask for courtesy. How can they accept this?

"Master Gu, congratulations!" Liao Weidong followed Gu Wenheng and said, "Mr. Cheng'an has such good fortune, and Master Gu seems to have made an indelible contribution.

I didn't expect that Master Gu would be so willing to give such a great achievement to me."

Gu Wenheng stopped and glanced at him. This man's mouth was as foul as ever. He accused him of deceiving the emperor right away.

"Master Liao, is it difficult to admit that you are not as good as a child?"

After Gu Wenheng finished speaking, he didn't care about his expression and just turned his sleeves and left. Someone burst out laughing, and when Liao Weidong turned around, everyone was looking at the floor.

"Hmm, Madam Gu, since she has already handed over the maritime trade to the royal family, she shouldn't have stretched her hands so far and taken over Lucheng.

The newly discovered rare species was not reported to the imperial court, but was instead handed over to a young child to deal with. This is simply nonsense.

Only His Majesty and the Emperor were deceived by them, and it is a pity that he dared to be so arrogant. "

Some people couldn't bear to listen and left together.

Some people also stayed and made sarcastic comments, "Who knows if this is a planting method they copied from overseas.

I didn’t expect that a young kid would benefit from it.”

"I say, stop talking nonsense here. Why didn't you say anything in the court just now?

If you really feel it is unfair, just file a complaint directly, why bother gossiping behind their backs. "Yu Ligao walked past them and snorted coldly.

The faces of Liao Weidong and others darkened. This was the order of the Supreme Emperor and the Emperor. No matter how big their objections were, they had to keep them to themselves.

"Lucheng is right there. If you think Lord Gu and his men are taking advantage, you can send people to keep an eye on them. Maybe you can get a chance to get a promotion." Mao Bingyan also laughed at this time.

"Alas, it's a pity that I'm short of money. I'm afraid I can't even rent a shop." Xu Yangguang sighed and smiled at the adults.

Li Laifu hated his pretentiousness the most, "Are you envious of Madam Gu's golden hands again?

If your eyes become red, you should see a doctor to avoid infecting others."

Don't even think about it. Now that the throne has been decided, the original fifth prince was only the Prince of Li County. Why is he still putting on airs of royal power?

Besides, it is not the Xu family's turn to be the real relative of the emperor. Lord Zhou, the real relative of the emperor, has already traveled to nowhere. They really should learn from him.

Xu Yangguang's face flushed. "Minister Li, I was just expressing my feelings. Why are you making insinuations here?"

"Did I name her?" Li Laifu said unhappily, "Let alone others' envy, I am somewhat envious of Madam Gu's Midas Touch.

Although I am not a very likable person, I am consistent inside and out and I don’t switch between positive and negative sides.”

Without waiting for the other party to find words to refute, he said to the front, "Master Yu, wait for me. I just happened to have something to do at the Ministry of Personnel..."

Leaving behind a group of people who are two-faced, "..."

Hua Shunming sat in the palace, listening to the information with a smile.

"This new courtier has a new dispute. I have seen this for my whole life. I am a little uncomfortable if I don't hear this news for a day."

In front of Hua Zhang, Hua Shunming did not hide his knowledge of the court.

Hua Zhang didn't take it seriously, because his father would always call him to come along, and he would be scolded every time before returning to the imperial study, so he had become accustomed to it.

"Father, the ministers feel that our reward is too high."

Hua Shunming sneered, "That's because the reward didn't fall on them, otherwise they would have thought it was too light.

I think Li Laifu is interesting. He was somewhat opposed to Gu Wenheng before, but now he is speaking for him. "

Hua Zhang reminded in a low voice, "Li Laifu has three legitimate daughters in his mansion, and they are of the right age."

Hua Shunming nodded. "Speaking of which, our royal family is still not destined to have a princess. If I had a princess, I would also think of marrying her to the Gu family. What a pity..."

Hua Zhang, "...Aren't there several princesses kept in the side palaces of the harem..."

Hua Shunming shook his head and said, "After all, she is a princess who was born halfway through her life. She is involved with many major families. If you want to arrange a marriage for her in the future, you must think twice.

Now the imperial court is stable, and when the corn harvest is good, there will be no need to promote princesses to other positions in the harem."

Having food and grass means having military strength, and then a small country will have nothing to fear.

Besides, Gu Wenheng’s two sons are now the Xiang Ma in the eyes of everyone, so he doesn’t want to be a pusher and offend Gu Wenheng, and give others an advantage.

Hua Zhang also had this idea. When he was still a prince, he felt uncomfortable when these strangers called his mother "Mother".

"Father, I have something else to ask."

Hua Shunming glanced at him and said, "You are here for maritime trade."

Hua Zhang nodded, "Someone has already given advice to me..."

Hua Shunming liked his honesty very much, "I also told you that the emperor likes to hold you in his hands, but there are very few people around you who can be used, and I am afraid that no one can take on the important task."

Hua Shunming knew exactly how many capable people were around the emperor.

She also felt a little resentful in her heart. The queen had been so cautious over the years, always afraid of violating her own taboos, and had not recruited many capable people around the two princes.

This also leads to the fact that the current emperor has very few trusted confidants around him when he ascends the throne.

Hua Zhang also knew that he had been looking for candidates these days, and would train them for a period of time before sending them out.

But he couldn't bear it. Someone wanted to sow discord. In order to prevent the other party from making another stupid move, he simply chose to make it clear with the Emperor today to avoid suspicion between father and son in the future.
