Chapter 608: The Last Princess Arrives (Twelve)
"My brother is gone? He doesn't even plan to spend the New Year in the capital?"
Just a few days after returning to the D Country Mansion, Gu Qingcheng received new news - the last emperor left the capital with his concubines.
"The emperor went to Jincheng, where there are quite a few remnants of Daqing!"
"In addition, General Zhang, who is loyal to Daqing, presented a house to the emperor."
"The emperor hung a plaque for the Qing Palace Office in Zhang Garden, received court officials in Zhang Garden, and prepared to hold a New Year's reception."
"Princess, Zhang Garden has become a small imperial court. Many old men and young men, as well as warlords and prominent families in Tianjin City have come to see you!"
The person who reported back was a young man in his twenties. He was wearing a brand new military uniform and stood respectfully in front of Gu Qingcheng.
These are the elites selected by Gu Qingcheng from among the three hundred guards, who are specifically responsible for gathering information and spying on intelligence.
They usually hang out in pubs, teahouses, and even places like the Eight Great Hutongs where all kinds of people mix.
A variety of information was collected, summarized, refined, and then reported to Gu Qingcheng.
Among the many pieces of news, there was the movement of the Last Emperor.
Gu Qingcheng didn't expect that the Last Emperor would act so quickly.
He had just attended the Ugly Country's banquet, and the next day he quickly contacted Tianjin.
After getting an accurate answer, in less than three days, the last emperor took his concubines, luggage, etc. and headed straight to Tianjin.
Was he stimulated? Gu Qingcheng stroked his chin. Was it because he was too venomous that day that he made the last emperor so angry that he didn't want to stay in the capital?
Or was it that she was too aggressive, making the last emperor feel that he had no hope at all if he stayed in the capital with her?
You can’t blame Gu Qingcheng for being narcissistic, it’s just that the Last Emperor ran too fast!
Of course, there is another possibility, that is, the last emperor was always wary of the warlords in the capital.
He was driven out of the palace by the warlords in the capital, and he couldn't guarantee that those people would not kill him! In the eyes of the last emperor, the capital was a circle of right and wrong, and it was a good idea to get out of it as soon as possible!
"That's fine! It's fine if my brother goes to Tianjin!"
Gu Qingcheng had never thought of hanging out with the Last Emperor.
She also didn't care what happened to the last emperor.
Compared to the last emperor's choice, Gu Qingcheng was more concerned: "Zhang Garden? Governor Zhang's residence?"
"yes!"
"Offering? Is there any change in the title deed?"
Gu Qingcheng's focus is always so "strange"! The guards were stunned for a moment, and after a moment, they shook their heads, "No!"
That was presented to the emperor, why did it involve changing the title deed? Gu Qingcheng smiled, well, it's just like the housekeeper not giving the key.
The right name is the kingly way.
To lend a house is called "donation" if you put it nicely, or "alms" if you put it bluntly.
As I said before, free is the most expensive.
Based on the wealth that the last emperor took out, he could have spent his own money to buy a house.
However, after being the emperor for more than ten years, even though he had no real power, deep down he still regarded himself as the "Lord of the World".
All under heaven belongs to the king!
Well, that's true, but it's a pity that your world is gone.
You are just a lost dog who can't even protect the palace.
If you can't subvert the rules, you can only follow them.
Forgetting his identity as an emperor, he purchased a house and built his own "imperial palace" in accordance with the laws of the Republic of China.
This is the safest way.
Just like Gu Qingcheng, if she wanted to build her own princess mansion, she had to pay the money in an orderly manner.
Payment and goods are settled!
Reasonable and legal!
Only when everything is justified can you feel justified.
Because what is borrowed always belongs to someone else.
Although there are flowers in full bloom now, they will be expelled again if there is any disturbance in the future.
Being driven out of the palace would be one thing, but if even the house "presented" by the ministers could be driven out, well, Gu Qingcheng simply couldn't imagine it.
How can such a last emperor still have the majesty of an emperor?
I don’t know how it is described in this fictional novel, but in history, the last emperor left Zhang Garden in shame and anger because the son of the Zhang family demanded payment of rent.
Alas, the emperor's noble aura was worn away little by little! The reason why Gu Qingcheng flaunted her wealth in public was to tell everyone: Even if I lost my dignity as a princess, I still have wealth that rivals that of a country.
As long as I want, I can still be a superior person.
Even if you have to be coerced by others, it cannot be because of the word "money".
Furthermore, Princess Qingcheng’s 300-member guard team is about to be trained, and the cooperation with Country D and Country Chou, as well as the contact with Country Y and Country Su, are also going smoothly.
In just one month, Gu Qingcheng has quietly woven a big network.
Maybe it is not obvious now, but one day, "Princess Qingcheng" will become one of the most noble women in the world!
"Forget it! Just let him be!"
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Gu Qingcheng sighed and no longer paid attention to the Last Emperor next door.
She is preparing to go to the Ugly Country.
In addition to medicines, she also wants to cooperate with the Durand family to manufacture fighter jets and other military equipment.
Although this is a fictional novel, the general trend of history should not change.
Six more years!
Gu Qingcheng must speed up!
In addition, it is also time to start planning for ancestral graves and the like.
She must get all the treasures away before anyone else does!
Gu Qingcheng listed them one by one, and then proceeded quickly and steadily according to her plan.
Of course, in addition to business, Gu Qingcheng did not forget to "entertain herself".
The weekend soon arrived and the masquerade ball at the Marshal's Mansion was held as scheduled.
This time, Gu Qingcheng did not wear the new Chinese style horse-faced skirt, but changed into a military uniform that she designed for the princess guard.
The gray-blue uniform is paired with a long coat of the same color and high leather boots.
Her long black hair was braided into two pigtails and then tied behind her head.
At first glance, Gu Qingcheng's military uniform has some D-series flavor.
Straight and elegant, men and women alike will find the unique charm of uniforms when wearing them.
Abstinence and aloofness.
The women remain strong and the men are even more heroic.
Coupled with Gu Qingcheng's stunning beauty, it's a double visual blow! So cool and sassy!
Any random shot can become a recruitment advertisement or a beauty pageant poster!
Gu Qingcheng was sitting in the new car that Dulang helped her buy, which was the latest model of sedan customized by the military vehicle manufacturer under the Dulang family.
The corresponding one is probably the famous Studebaker.
The black sedan slowly stopped. The guard on the passenger seat got out first, ran to the back, and respectfully opened the door.
Gu Qingcheng got out of the car, followed closely by two bodyguards.
Behind the car was a truck with about twenty or thirty fully armed soldiers sitting in it.
Gu Qingcheng's aura is even stronger than it was a week ago.
Because she knew that today's masquerade was destined to be a Hongmen Banquet.
She can be humiliated, but she will not be humiliated for no reason.
Necessary preparations still need to be made.
Sure enough, as soon as I entered the courtyard of the Marshal's Mansion, I saw a woman wearing a complicated Manchu dress, kneeling on the road that was full of people coming and going...
