Yu Jia went out of the palace in a micro-clothes, followed by Gu Shubai and others.
In the car, Gu Yi heard that even Gu Wenqing and Gu Xiang had been named fourth-rank generals, and he was both amazed and unconvinced.
"That's all for fourth brother, how come you are even an official?"
Gu Yi scolded Gu Xiang, and looked at Yufu pitifully, "Xiao Yufu, you won't forget your poor sixth brother, right?"
Yu Fu pretended to be serious and nodded, "Don't worry, Sixth Brother, I won't forget you. Even if I forget you, I can't forget Third Brother!"
Gu Yi patted his chest, "Amitabha, fortunately there is third brother, otherwise I must have been ignored!"
Yu Fu looked at Gu Hanmo, "The third brother had the same job as the second brother when he was in Dongling, and he is still the same as the second brother now. As for the sixth brother, he is the same as the fifth brother, how about that?"
Just as Gu Yi was about to agree, Gu Hanmo said, "No."
Gu Yi immediately looked dejected, Su Yunyan pulled his arm, and motioned him to stop talking, "Listen to the third brother, don't interrupt."
Everyone looked at Gu Hanmo, and Gu Hanmo said: "Yufu, I understand your kindness. But whether it is Dongling or Beili, there is no case where all the brothers and sisters of the family are serving in the court. Besides, you are not willing to neglect We are all high-ranking officials, so it is inevitable that people will discuss it."
Gu Yi thought about it too, and then he calmed down.
Gu Shubai looked at Yu Fu and said, "Third brother is right. You have conferred official positions on the four of us when you first ascended the throne. It is inevitable that the courtiers will be grievances if you are appointed again. If things are not fair, you will cry. It is not worthwhile to make the courtiers feel cold. You say Yes or no?"
Yu Fu sighed, "But you were all trained by the great general, all of you are extraordinary generals, worthy of being generals. If you can't be sealed off just because you are biological brothers, wouldn't you be wronged? "
Su Yunyan hurriedly said: "What's so difficult about this? Didn't you say that there will be a martial arts examination? Let the third brother and Gu Yi go to take part in the imperial examination together. Then their martial arts talents will be seen by everyone, and they will win the laurels and be appointed officials with their abilities." Wouldn't it be justifiable to change your name to Jinjue?"
Yu Fu's eyes suddenly brightened, "That's right, this method is good!"
Gu Hanmo nodded, expressing satisfaction with this, Gu Xiang put his hands on Gu Yi's shoulders, and teased: "The third brother is definitely fine, it's just the sixth brother..."
Gu Yi opened his hand and yelled: "Stop looking down on people, I'll bring back a martial arts champion to show you!"
The carriage was not far away, turned left under Miyagi Root, and stopped soon.
Everyone thought something happened, but they heard the guards outside say: "Your Majesty, all generals, you have arrived."
"It's here so soon?"
Everyone couldn't help being surprised, Yu Fu said: "This place is very close to the imperial palace, you can often enter the palace, and I can often go out of the palace to see you. This is a badge that prohibits entry and exit from the palace—"
She handed the things into Gu Shubai's hands, "With this waist card, you don't need to report the ban on entering and leaving the palace. It will be convenient for you to enter the palace in the future."
Gu Shubai tucked the badges into his sleeves, everyone got out of the car, and saw a tall and majestic mansion.
The vermilion gateposts are as big as two people hugging each other, and one hundred and twenty-eight golden round nails are inlaid on the vermilion gates of the same color, showing the prominent status of the owner of the mansion.
On the tall plaque with a black background and a golden edge directly above it is the word "Gu Mansion", which is roaming around.
The brushwork of the Gu character is very familiar, it looks like a pen made of jade, with a woman's beauty in the elegant and flexible.
Gu Wenqing frowned and looked carefully, the more she looked, the more she felt...
"This Gu character is written like the characters on the flag of our Gu family army, and it is also written in such a free and easy way! Yu Fu, did you write this yourself?"
Yu Fu smiled embarrassedly, "The imitation is not good, I just want you to look at it more kindly."
Gu Shubai came up from behind her, "I imitated it very well. The Gu character on the Gu family army flag was written by my father himself. It is calm and elegant, and now your handwriting has the flavor of my father."
This is a very special compliment for Yufu.
She readily accepted, and looked at everyone, "This mansion may not be as good as Gu Hou's mansion, but it is better than the palace city. I have arranged your respective residences, you go in and have a look!"
Yu Fu personally led Gu Shubai, "Big brother, I'll take you to see your yard."
Everyone dispersed and went to their own yards. They were unmarried sons in Guhou Mansion before, and they didn't care about where they lived.
Now as they get older, some of them are already married, so Yufu considerately arranges the courtyards where everyone lives in a patchwork order. Even Gu Xiang and Gu Yi, who were used to living together, arranged two courtyards that were adjacent but not together.
Gu Xiang looked at Gu Yi holding Su Yunyan's hand, the young couple were chatting and laughing, and they were a little jealous, "From now on, you two will live together, I want to live alone, alas."
Gu Yi had a smirk on his face, "Whenever you marry me a sister-in-law, you won't say such things!"
It's better to marry a wife. Although Su Yunyan is unruly and self-willed, he helps him pack his clothes and luggage every day. With such a dress, he feels much more handsome than before.
What's more, eating in front of a beautiful girl is more appetizing than eating in front of Gu Xiang's face that is exactly like his own!
Gu Yi swaggered and dragged Su Yunyan away, so Gu Xiang had no choice but to follow the servants to his own yard alone.
After entering the courtyard gate, he saw that the space inside was spacious and beautifully furnished, even the plants and trees were arranged in the layout he liked, and he immediately forgot all about his jealousy just now.
Gu Jiuge and Yin Jixie joined hands to watch in their courtyard. Dozens of peach blossom trees were planted in the courtyard, and Beili's good wine was buried under the peach blossoms.
"Tao Zhiyao is shining brightly, and his son is Yu Guiyi's IKEA. Yufu has a heart, this yard can be said to be a fusion of what you like and what I like."
Yin Jiyu was also very satisfied, "This is what I imagined my future life would look like. Look at this kitchen is so big, I can cook soup for you here in the future without worrying about being smoked."
Gu Jiuge put his arms around her shoulders, and took a close look at her slender fingers with one hand, "With such delicate hands, the ten fingers should not touch the spring water. How can I be willing to let you cook by myself?"
Yin Jixie shyly nodded, "From now on, the long skirt will be a smile, and I will wash my hands and make soup for you."
…
Yufu led Gu Shubai towards the east side of the mansion, "I left the upper room in the main courtyard to the general, I hope that one day he will be willing to come to Beili."
Gu Shubai nodded, "It should. No matter where father is, as long as he hasn't left us, he will always be the head of the Gu family."
Although the upper room in the main courtyard is temporarily vacant and unoccupied, as long as they think that one day Gu Huaijiang will come to Beili to live there, the brothers will have support in their hearts.
He suddenly thought of something, "Do you keep your own yard?"
When he was in Guhou Mansion, the west chamber where Yu Fu lived was the best courtyard in the mansion. Although she is now living in the palace as a queen, the family should still keep her residence.
Yu Fu smiled mysteriously, "I didn't stay."
Just as Gu Shubai wanted to ask why he didn't stay, he heard a familiar voice shouting towards them.
"Major General, here!"
Yan Zheng waited outside the courtyard, impatient to wait, and waved quickly when he saw them coming.
Gu Shubai shook his head and chuckled, "He still can't change his old address, like a fool, he forgot that Gu Jiajun is no longer ours."
"Who said no?"
Yu Fu wrinkled his nose, "It will always be. Every soldier in the Gu family army will remember you, I think in their hearts, you will always be their major general."
"Your Majesty, Major General, what are you talking about?"
Yan Zheng, who is impatient, didn't know who he learned from. Seeing them stop talking in the middle of the road, he hurriedly stepped forward and beckoned them in.
His name for Yu Fu has been changed to be good.
Gu Shubai smiled and said: "What is so happy, why are you rushing us in?"
Yan Zheng said: "You will know when you go in, go in quickly!"
He pushed Gu Shubai towards the courtyard, and he saw a very familiar swing, with a plantain and a crabapple standing beside it.
this is not…
Yu Fu subconsciously walked to the swing and sat down comfortably, "It's been a long time since I sat on the swing, this swing is very well made, exactly the same as the one in the west wing."
This swing is indeed like the one in the west wing, but why is it placed in his courtyard
Before Gu Shubai had time to ask why, Yu Fu patted beside him, "Big brother, come over and try."
Yan Zheng pursed his lips and snickered, and quietly exited the yard, not disturbing the two of them talking.
Gu Shubai sat beside Yufu, the swing creaked and swayed, Yufu subconsciously raised her toes, her straight legs dangling back and forth.
Gu Shubai looked at the courtyard, besides the swings, crabapples and plantains, there were also wooden chairs and tables in the courtyard, all of which were arranged according to his courtyard in Guhou Mansion.
In addition, some practice pillars are exactly the same as before.
He suddenly understood Yu Fu's good intentions, she skillfully blended everything that belonged to her daughter's family in this courtyard with all the masculine and military things, so it didn't appear a bit abrupt.
It's not just his yard—
When they get married in the future, there will be half of Yufu here.
No wonder Yufu said that she didn't keep her own yard, but now that she thinks about it, there is really no need for that.
He couldn't help laughing, the slightly curved corners of his mouth made people think of the sweetness of a kiss, Yu Fu looked at him and smiled foolishly.
The two sat on the swing and dangled leisurely, the years swayed in the light and shadow, and only the sound of the wind remained in their ears.
She leaned on his shoulder and whispered: "Big brother, do you like cranes? Do you like mandarin ducks? There is also a lake in front of this yard, which is about the same size as the former Guhou Mansion. If you like it, order someone to send some to put in the lake." inside."
Gu Shubai immediately guessed her thoughts, knowing that Yufu had lived in Immortal Valley for a long time, and he liked these birds and beasts, such as cranes, mandarin ducks, dogs, foxes and even rabbits...
In the past, all these animals were available in the west chamber, and people who didn't know it would think they were in a fairyland outside the world.
When Yu Fu left Dong Ling, he only took Fat Wu and Fat Jiu with him, and now they both receive excellent treatment in the palace, surrounded by four or five court ladies and eunuchs every day.
It seems strange to raise cranes in the palace, so Yufu brought his idea to Gu's residence.
Gu Shubai was serious, "Yes, I like it. Let's keep it. Besides cranes and mandarin ducks, how about some rabbits?"
As soon as Yu Fu heard that he didn't like him, he was overjoyed immediately, "Okay, so next time I bring Fat Five and Fat Nine out, they can chase rabbits again!"
When he was talking about being happy, he suddenly saw Yao Lan coming in from the courtyard with a serious expression on his face.
"Your Majesty, there is an urgent secret report from Dong Ling."
Yu Fu's complexion changed, he took the document in her hand and opened it, looking in surprise, "Why so fast?"
Gu Shubai received the secret report, and frowned after reading it, "We have only left for more than a month, and Dongling has become like this. How many people are there in the southern peasant uprising? Didn't Emperor Ning send troops to suppress it?"
Yaolan asked three questions, "The spies said that the peasant uprising was well-received, and the number of people was unpredictable. Emperor Ning's various actions had already made him lose the hearts of the people. Although he has dispatched troops to suppress it, it has had little effect. I am afraid that the rebel army will soon be defeated." Take advantage of the imperial army."
"This is impossible."
Gu Shubai asked: "Where's the Gu family army? With the Gu family army around, how could the rebellion be allowed to arise?"
Yao Lan looked at Yu Fu hesitantly, and then said: "My lord, there is no Gu family army anymore. Ever since everyone in Gu Hou's mansion left Dong Ling, even General Yan Huo and the others have left Dong Ling, so what else is there?" Gu Jiajun? The original designation has been withdrawn, the organization of Gu Jiajun has been disrupted and reorganized, and the military strength is not as good as before."
Gu Shubai's face was gloomy, although he had expected it long ago, he still couldn't help feeling sad when he heard that Gu Jiajun's account number had been withdrawn.
Yufu held his hand tightly, trying to comfort him.
She suddenly noticed a person in the secret report, and asked Yaolan: "Who is the leader of the peasant rebel army, why didn't he even find out his name?"
Yao Lan said: "This is a preliminary secret report. In order not to delay the matter, the spies did not dare to spend more time inquiring, so they sent the news back as soon as possible. However, they paid attention to the name of this leader, and they really couldn't find out. I heard that He was an extremely mysterious young man who rescued a group of peasants who were about to be beheaded because they owed taxes, and has risen since then."
Yu Fu frowned, "It's unreasonable! How many taxes are in arrears and need to be settled by murder? Which bastard made this law?!"
Yao Lan said helplessly: "Who else can there be? Naturally, it is Emperor Ning. Since His Majesty left Dongling, I heard that Emperor Ning has recruited troops and increased taxes in the court. It seems that he intends to compete with Bei Li in terms of military strength. The area in the west of Fujian was not rich before. After the tax was increased, it was even impossible to cultivate the land. Emperor Ning ordered the delinquents to beheaded as a warning to others, and the people fled around in misery."
Yu Fu said: "Immediately order people to continue to investigate the peasant uprising. You must find out who the leader is. And the current situation in Dongling Chaozhong, you must investigate thoroughly."
She turned her head to look at Gu Shubai, Gu Shubai immediately understood, "I will accompany you back to the palace."
Yu Fu nodded, "Immediately call Tian Yunpo, Bao Taifu, Chen Jingxing and others into the palace to discuss this matter together. General Ouyang has already asked for leave to recuperate, so don't call him."
"yes."
Yaolan hurried away to send people to notify the various government offices, Gu Shubai ordered Yan Zheng to stay and explain the situation to Gu Jiuge and others, and then accompanied Yufu back to the palace.
In the imperial study room, Yu Fu was at the head, and let everyone pass on the secret edict sent by Dong Ling.
Chen Jingxing was the first to think: "Your Majesty, if the Dongling Dynasty is experiencing such turmoil, should we temporarily stop the good horses and mutual markets we promised earlier?"
Tian Yunpo smiled sarcastically, "Even if we prepare good horses, I'm afraid that the one who will receive him will no longer be Emperor Ning, but the leader of the peasant uprising army."
Everyone also thinks the same way. The war in Dongling will definitely affect the diplomatic relations between the two countries. It seems that it is beneficial to Bei Li but not harmful.
Bao Taifu cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, since the people of Dongling are miserable and fleeing everywhere, should we open the border cities to accommodate the homeless people? Your Majesty has prestige in Dongling Guang, and the old minister thought, the people of Dongling are watching For His Majesty's sake, I would be more willing to come to Beili."
Gu Shubai also said: "Teacher Bao's words are reasonable. Xikun is vast in land and sparsely populated, and is short of troops. Once they know that the people of Dongling are fleeing everywhere, they will definitely take the opportunity to accommodate them and strengthen their troops. Instead of taking advantage of Xikun, Why don't we take those refugees into Beili."
Yu Fu nodded slightly, "This plan is feasible, but we still need to formulate corresponding policies to attract people to Beili. How about this, the refugees who come to Beili will be given acres of land per head, and they will be free to cultivate for three years. pay taxes."
Taifu Bao stroked his beard and praised again and again: "Okay, this is a good idea! My Beili is vast, and I don't have to worry about having no land for these refugees to cultivate. The people have a sense of belonging when they have a field, and they will gradually regard Beili as their own. Home."
Gu Shubai added: "If these people can be allowed to participate in the imperial examinations like ordinary Beili people, no matter whether it is civil or martial arts, it may attract more talents."
As soon as he said this, the people in the seat looked at him with admiration, even Tian Yunpo couldn't help but glance at him.
