Chapter 614 Return to Cezhou



After saying this, it seemed a bit inhumane for the emperor to not allow it, so he waved his hand and agreed to the matter.

Although the Yan family had their titles taken back, the emperor immediately promoted Minister Yan to the position of Minister of Personnel, ranking first among the six ministries.

Everyone present then understood that Lord Yan's strategy of retreating in order to advance was a good one. He exchanged a title with little real power for Minister Yan, who had a great chance of becoming the next prime minister. Such an idea was something that only an old fox like him could think of.

From now on, Empress Yan and the Earl's Mansion, who depended on Prince Rong, would become a thing of the past, and the new emperor's confidant, Minister Yan, would rise. As long as he could continue to move forward smoothly in the court, the Yan family would never fall! After the court session, the ministers who had been close to Lord Yan gathered around.

"What are your plans for the future, my Lord?"

"I am no longer a marquis. I am just an ordinary person and I am not worthy of your kindness. After my daughter is taken out of the palace, we will leave Sui'an City. As for the plan, we will take it one step at a time. When I get old, I will not participate in these matters. Let the younger generations handle it themselves."

After saying this, he left decisively, leaving everyone in deep thought again.

"Do you think the Yan family knew something? That's why they were able to break up so cleanly?"

"It's hard to say. Didn't the daughter of the Li family marry into the Duke's Mansion? The Duke's Mansion and the General's Mansion are inextricably linked. Who knows if Minister Yan heard some rumors from the Yue family that led him to act in this way!"

"Our new emperor is very low-key, and it's hard to predict what his next move will be."

After a few casual chats, everyone dispersed.

However, Lord Yan's "good words" were still heard by many people, so many old ministers knew that this was no longer their world, so they either asked to abdicate or gradually left the core power in the name of recuperation.

Some left, some dispersed, some were replaced, some were promoted. Those who were willing to stay were those the emperor wanted them to stay, and those who left were soon promoted. So there was no turmoil in the government, and it returned to peace, and it was even more prosperous than before.

By April of the first year in Changle, the court was already clear and bright.

New dynasty, new look. After Shangshu Yan was promoted, Shilang Xing was also promoted to the position of Shangshu. One of them was in charge of the Ministry of Personnel and the other was in charge of the Ministry of War. Although they were old ministers, they became the right-hand men of the new emperor, which made many people feel deeply moved.

Everyone once thought that the Xing family and the Yan family would fight to the death over the battle for the throne, but no one expected that the final outcome of the two families would be so peaceful.

When the crabapple blossoms were in full bloom, Gu Shaoyu and his wife finally brought their family, young and old, to Cezhou and settled in the general's mansion there.

Most of the items in the general's mansion were from the time of Marshal Gu, so when Ni Yang came here to clean up, he didn't move much. He just added some more according to the habits of each person in the family, so it looked a little out of place.

Du Jingyi took Butler He and Nanny Dou to look around, then shook his head helplessly, and then looked at Ni Yang with a wry smile.

"It's hard for Vice General Ni."

"You are too polite, madam. I can still handle this little thing."

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Shaoyu suddenly gave him a look of disdain, and then ruthlessly exposed him.

"Madam, what you mean is, it's hard for you to clean up this place so ugly, can't you hear it?"

"Ah? Is it ugly?"

Ni Yang looked around and thought it was okay, why did it look so ugly? Aunt Dou stood up and said with a smile.

"Lieutenant General Ni is a talented person who fights enemies in the front. He can naturally handle this little matter in the backyard. However, our wife and the old lady and young ladies who came with her still need to tidy up a little before they can stay."

Ni Yang sighed, then spread his hands helplessly and said.

"I don't have a wife at home, otherwise it would be better if she came to look after this matter. It would be a pity for my wife to see me laughing at her. If there is anything inappropriate, just tell me and I will have someone take it away."

"Thank you for your hard work, Lieutenant General Ni. We brought quite a few servants with us this time, more than enough to clean up the yard. If you have nothing to do, you can help build a martial arts training ground in the backyard. The boys in the family need to practice boxing and kicking every day, and we are just outsiders."

Du Jingyi's words were pleasant to the ears, and Ni Yang thought the task was good, so he immediately accepted it and started to arrange manpower.

After he left, Gu Shaoyu looked at Du Jingyi apologetically and spoke.

"I should have sent Madam Dou and Butler He over here to take a look. Ni Yang is usually very capable in organizing the military camp, but I didn't expect that his house would become like this. It's really a joke for Madam to see."

"General, you are not using Lieutenant General Ni in the right place. Just wait and see. The training ground must be better and more suitable than the one we have in Sui'an City!"

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Gu Shaoyu smiled, and his whole body exuded a kind of ostentatious feeling that life was peaceful and quiet.

This was a side of him that he had never shown in Sui'an City or Jinling City. Du Jingyi could feel it, and he also knew that it was because Gu Shaoyu basically grew up in Cezhou throughout his youth.

Although he was heartbroken by the fact that his entire family died for their country, he also had memories of his youth that made him full of vigor and vitality. Therefore, Du Jingyi was happy. At the same time, he also hoped that the presence of himself and his family could allow Gu Shaoyu to have more warm memories of Cezhou.

Then, he looked around and spoke.

"General, please take a rest. I will take Butler He and Nanny Dou to settle my aunt and the others first, and then we will go to check on the places in the yard that need to be cleaned up. And we must not neglect the Master's residence either. He followed us all the way to Cezhou, and we must not let him feel wronged."

Du Jingyi hadn't even sat down to drink a sip of water yet, but she was already busy again. Seeing this, Gu Shaoyu didn't delay her, but stood up and spoke.

"Then I will take a few boys to the military camp. Those deputy generals have been waiting to deal with these boys for a long time. It would be good to meet them first!"

The couple had discussed the matter of joining the military camp long ago.

But I only went there once or twice because of all the troubles that happened one after another, so I couldn't find the time to do it at all. Now it's okay.

The Tiger Guards returned to Cezhou to continue guarding the border, and their family followed them. So, if they didn't take advantage of this opportunity, they would be in vain. So Gu Shaoyu took the children out. (End of this chapter)
