Chapter 229 Obtain
"Alas," the lady sighed sadly, "In the palace, only new people smile, but old ones cry. This cycle repeats itself over and over again for years. How can a man have more than three wives and four concubines? How can you be happy in the palace? This is the real point of no return."
"but……"
Gu Feixue hesitated for a long time, and after a while, she mustered up the courage to retort, "But as long as he truly loves me, my life will definitely be good."
"Emperors have always been heartless, my Xue'er."
Mother is getting a little anxious.
The two ended their conversation.
According to the original plan, the family was going to the capital.
Yuchi Shuo naturally knew that they were being plotted against by the treacherous minister Wei Zhongxian. Everyone shared the same hatred for the enemy, but knowing is easier said than done. Wei Zhongxian's power extended in all directions and could not be easily shaken.
Zheng Yannian was also preparing to leave.
Amo Gong also left at the same time.
From that day on, Gu Feixue became a disciple and learned skills, and listened to Zheng Yannian's advice on water conservancy matters.
A group of people left Jiangzhou in a mighty manner.
Yuchi She, who was hiding in the dark, was furious. He had been traveling around for the past few days, calling friends today and visiting prostitutes tomorrow. His life was so exciting.
During this period, he also arranged for the ear-reporting god.
Someone reported that they had completely controlled the flood, "Do you have any real evidence?"
"Your Highness, everything has been settled over there. I went to see it yesterday. The dam is towering into the sky. The people of Jiangzhou saw them off and brought back a basketful of local specialties."
"Let's go and take a look."
This is an impossible "possibility".
How could he not be anxious? Yuchi She had also planned to control the flood before, but when he arrived at the riverside, he saw that the flood was raging and had reached an uncontrollable level, so he disappeared in shame.
During that time, he even gave up on sniping Gu Lang and Yuchi Shuo.
But unexpectedly, instead of taking advantage of others' misfortune, it actually brought them success.
Now everything is fine.
"How is this possible?"
The people are singing and dancing. Before, there were crises everywhere, but now the country is peaceful and everyone lives and works in peace.
At this moment, Yuchi She looked down at this magnificent project and asked, "How could this be completed in just seven or eight days?"
The hand holding the whip secretly exerted force, and because of the incredible sound, the pitch became much higher.
Several staff members nearby could only nod. One staff member said with a stern tone, "At that time, they found a lot of people to help, and the court also sent a lot of officers and soldiers. The emperor also said that Jiangzhou was a place of great importance. As long as the flood was dealt with, any surrounding troops could be dispatched at will. About 500 to 600 people were mobilized at that time, and that doesn't even include the migrant workers and local people who volunteered to participate for free."
Hearing this, Yuchi She signaled him to stop talking.
In that silence, he walked around.
"These projects were built by a disabled person, and all of this was designed by that disabled person."
"Name!" he demanded.
The man didn't dare to hide it. "My name is Amo Gong. I'm said to be a native of the Imperial Capital."
"Besides that," seeing that Yuchi She seemed to want to ask more, he began to spill the beans, "even the nearby bandit Yang Dinggan participated. Isn't that strange?"
"It's really influential, it's hard to say, haha." Yuchi She laughed coldly, "We lost, a complete defeat."
The aide continued, "They've already left. They left yesterday afternoon."
"What do you mean?" Yuchi She asked, "Sniper kill on the road?"
"I'll make the arrangements right away."
But Yuchi Shuo said, "Don't go to such lengths to make such arrangements. You don't know who Zheng Yannian is. In the past, he single-handedly provoked the Turks, and even a 5,000-man Turkish army couldn't do anything to him. Wouldn't it be courting death if we attacked this time? Besides, there are also uninvited guests like Gu Tingchuan and Yang Dinggan."
"Then we have to go back?"
"No!"
"Let us go at once to the Arsenal and the Legion."
On the other side, the carriage was filled with laughter and joy. Everyone looked at the disabled Amo Gong differently. Gu Feixue sighed with emotion, "This time, I am so grateful to have found you, Master."
This was a heartfelt statement, but Ah Mogong smiled faintly upon hearing it. "What ability do I have? If I were in the Imperial Capital, I would have been nothing but a nobody. Now that I'm here, I'm truly shining. I know everything you've done to get here legitimately."
"Master."
"Okay, we're getting excited again while chatting." Gu Lang smiled.
Everyone soon arrived in the capital.
Yuchi Shuo returned to the palace as soon as possible.
He brought Gu Tingchuan, Gu Feixue and A Mogong with him.
The palace was decorated with lights and lanterns. Seeing everyone coming back, the old eunuch even laid a layer of soft scarlet felt. This was Gu Feixue's second time in the palace. She had only a quick glimpse before and didn't see much. But now, in broad daylight, Gu Feixue saw many buildings. These buildings were magnificent and splendid, and they were lined up like stars, surrounding the Qiankun Hall.
The emperor is ready to summon you all.
Led by Yuchi Shuo, everyone entered the Qiankun Hall.
The emperor laughed heartily.
"Someone has sent me this blueprint. I am ecstatic. It is a truly delightful design. Ah Mogong..."
"The common people are here."
Someone supported A Mogong and prepared to make him kneel down. Gu Feixue was about to stand up. A Mogong was old and frail, and was also a real cripple. How could such a person kneel down?
At this moment, the emperor stood up.
"Just sit down. I didn't show respect to the talented back then, which is why I missed out on this gem. Now that you've returned, you're bowing to me. What's going on? I want you to be the Minister of Works. From now on, all the construction work in the imperial capital will be handed over to you. What do you think?"
Hearing this, Amo Gong clasped his fists in emotion.
Several eunuchs nearby quickly released him.
Gu Feixue finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"I," the emperor approached Amo Gong and half-knelt in front of him, "I have also investigated. When your father was building the mausoleum... I was wrong in that matter, but the dead are gone, and I deeply regret this."
"Yes, yes." A Mogong waited for the emperor's apology, which was unexpected.
The two looked at each other.
"From now on, I will serve the court through fire and water, and will not turn back even if I die."
"You still need to pass on the torch. After all, you are old and shouldn't work too hard. Now it's time to sit back and enjoy the fruits of your labor. If you are willing, you should take a few disciples with you. The people around me are all very confused. I'm afraid they are not capable of dealing with the flood. But you are different."
This was the first time that Gu Feixue observed the emperor up close, and he discovered that the emperor was completely different from the foolish and incompetent person in the legend.
He is polite, honest and good at dealing with people.
Then the emperor looked at Yuchi Shuo.
"These people should have assisted in flood control. I don't even know them. Please introduce them."
