Gu Chengyu had no choice but to leave his jade token and said to Zhao Taohua, "If you want to lead the Zhao family's Hexi Village to do business, then do it well. I hope you can make your business known to the capital soon. If you encounter any difficulties, you can seek out the prince and he will protect you."

During these days at the Zhao family, he seemed to have gradually integrated into that kind of down-to-earth life. If it were too late, he would definitely not bother to ask the Zhao family for it, and would wait until the reward of mountains of gold and silver was given to him.

"Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty."

Zhao Taohua then revealed a satisfied and happy smile. She had long known that the main reason for being content was the uncertainty of the outside power. With Gu Chengyu's promise, it seemed as if there was another layer of protection for their future.

Zhao Jia Taohua finally smiled from the bottom of her heart.

This Peach Blossom of the Zhao Family is even harder to please than the noble ladies of the capital. This is what Gu Chengyu thinks in his heart, but why should he please the Peach Blossom of the Zhao Family?

He also found it strange. After being the Zhao family's live-in son-in-law for two months, could it be that he had gotten into the role?

Before he lost his memory, he was not into the role, and if he regained his memory, he would not be able to get into the role either.

After saying this, Gu Chengyu formally said goodbye. He didn't want to make a big fuss about this matter. Firstly, he was a low-key person, and he didn't want to cause trouble for the Zhao family because of this matter.

When they reached the door, the county magistrate and the eunuchs had been waiting for a long time.

"Your Highness..."

Deputy General Meng also came in person.

Gu Chengyu directly told them the story in a low voice. Finally, he looked at Zhao Zhu, who was still in a daze, and said, "Congratulations, Deputy General Zhao."

"ah?"

Deputy General Meng was speechless. He was my soldier yesterday, but today he is my colleague. It is a bit uncomfortable, but it is a blessing in disguise.

Gu Chengyu, the current Prince Yu, came quietly and left as quietly as well.

But later, someone secretly gave the Zhao family one hundred taels of gold, saying that it was the money Gu Chengyu lost to Zhao Taohua.

Zhao Taohua then remembered, wasn't it silver? He had taken it seriously, but for a man like Prince Yu, this hundred gold should be no problem, so she didn't act pretentiously and accepted it.

It's just the right thing to do to help her upgrade her career.

When the villagers asked why so many soldiers and officials had come, the county magistrate explained that Zhao Zhu had joined the army earlier and later made contributions on the battlefield, for which he was awarded an official title.

Or, the people in the surrounding villages are simple and honest. Since the county magistrate said it himself, it must be true. Otherwise, how could such a noble county magistrate tell lies?

The county magistrate said: Can you tell if I'm lying?

So a few days ago, Zhao Zhu, who was still at home harvesting in autumn, exhausted and covered in dust, and still had the bad reputation of being anxious about not being able to find a wife, received news that he was about to take up his post and move to the capital for a high position.

It spread overnight.

This made the Zhao family very miserable. People came to propose marriage to them even at night. Unfortunately, Zhao Zhu had never planned to get married before, and Ru Zhu had no intention of getting married either. He wanted to build his career first.

At the very least, we should find one in Beijing.

Vice General Meng said, "He has great ambition."

So after Zhao Yuzhu informed his family, he quickly went to the capital with Deputy General Meng, promising to take them in as guests once he bought a house and settled down in the capital.

"What's the point of being a guest? No place is as good as our doghouse," said Old Man Zhao, who had never thought of leaving Hexi Village.

"Now that Ayu is gone, there are two less people in the family. I feel... bad," Old Mrs. Zhao sighed.

So a curious woman at the entrance of the village asked, "Mrs. Zhao, why haven't you seen your live-in son-in-law for several days?"
