Chapter 919
919 I’ve seen her at Imperial grandmother’s
The Emperor was stunned by Gu Hui’s words. He suddenly felt that he had seen Gu Hui’s tone and expression before.
Yes, I’ve seen her at Imperial grandmother’s place.
Back then, when eldest Madam Peng was still an unmarried lady, someone in the court had impeached her family. At that time, he was still the Crown Prince and his father was in power. His father was a good man who neither wanted to punish eldest Madam Peng nor scold the person who impeached her.
At this time, the Empress Dowager came out to say this.
Why not women?
Women also had the heart to protect the country. As long as she had the ability, what right did you have to impeach her?
You said it so fiercely, why don’t you go?
Every day, you only know how to impeach this and that. The great Zhou Empire is in trouble because of you officials.
The Imperial study fell silent. Gu Hui looked at the Emperor nervously.
The Emperor suddenly laughed, ” your parents and grandparents haven’t gone to the capital yet, right? we’ll talk about this after they go to the capital. As long as you can obtain the approval of your three elders, we will agree!”
Gu Hui did not expect the Emperor to agree. She was about to thank him when the Emperor said, ” “However, in addition to the approval of your family’s elders, you also need the approval of old general Peng. He will leave for kun city at the end of October and will be in the capital for a while. You have to work hard on your own!”
“Thank you, Your Majesty!” Gu Hui replied.
The Emperor then looked at Gu Xin. little Xinxin, give me the warhorse you won. I’ll give you whatever you want. Don’t even talk about going to the battlefield, you’re too young.”
Gu Xin shook her head,”Your Majesty, I don’t want anything.” This official’s daughter would like to ask the Emperor to give the three hundred warhorses to brother Yuan Yuan.”
The Emperor was stunned.
“When I was playing the zither just now, I was thinking about brother Yuan Yuan fighting on the battlefield!” Gu Xin said, embarrassed. Brother Yuanyuan said that he was the regimental commander of three hundred people, so she gave him exactly three hundred horses. Can you, Your Majesty?”
The Emperor looked at Gu shouxin helplessly. second brother Gu, the daughter you raised was bitten by a Wolf. Aren’t you angry? ”
“I know how to train wolves,” Gu shouxin said.
hahahahahaha! the Emperor laughed. alright, alright, alright, you Gu family members are amazing! Alright, since my daughters don’t want a reward, then I’ll reward your entire family.”
As a result, the Gu family was rewarded with a big house with five entrances and a thousand taels of gold.
After the Gu family returned home, the Empress’s reward also came. Empress Xue’s reward was some cloth, silk, hair, and other women’s things.
Soon after, the rewards from Empress Jiang and the Empress Dowager also arrived. In any case, they were saying that the Gu sisters had made a contribution to the court and brought face to the great Zhou.
The news spread quickly in the capital. That night, many families knew about it. Even the Grand Emperor and the Empress Dowager had rewarded them. The Gu family had really hit the jackpot!
Some of the Masters had instructed their madams to remember to invite the top scholar’s wife and two children to any banquets held at home in the future. They also tried to let the girls in the family have a good relationship with the other party.
Of course, there were also some who felt that the Gu family’s status was not high enough. They were only a top scholar who had only helped the Emperor win the war horse.
The Gu family didn’t know about this because they had received a letter saying that Grandpa and Grandma Gu had arrived in Tongzhou and would be able to enter the capital city tomorrow.
Tomorrow would be the first day of the tenth month. Gu shouxin couldn’t leave the Yamen, so he asked Cai Xiaolian and the two children to go out of the city to pick her up. With Bai Yi following Gu Xin at all times, Gu shouxin had nothing to worry about.
Bai Yi had only arrived before Lu Zheng left. Bai Yi had already completed Lu Zheng’s plan and caused the Lin family to lose many people.
The seed that Grandpa Zhou was dragging along with him had left for kun city halfway and did not even come to Beijing. The Lin family had suffered a double loss and had long hated the Gu family.
