I have a backstage in Datang

"When the news of his heroic death spread, I once had fantasies in my heart, but I knew that it was impossible. No one in the world knew him better than me. How could he be a hero with such a selfish character."

"It's his nature to wag his tail and beg for mercy for his life!"

At night, the mist was lingering like a veil, and the little beggar muttered to himself, standing quietly in front of the broken courtyard, weeping.

After a long time, his tears seemed to have dried up.

Only then did he reach out and wipe his face, wiping away all the tears, and then, he tried his best to put on a happy smile.

He lifted his foot, pushed open the door, and shouted sweetly with joy in his voice, "Mother, I'm back. I'm lucky today, I actually made money."

"Mom, you must be very hungry, right? I bought two buns, all filled with meat. It only cost two yuan, and the Han people who sold the buns didn't oppress me."

"Mother, mother, why are you crying? Are you crying secretly?"

The light in the broken courtyard was very dim, and a woman was vaguely seen sitting there, sobbing and wiping tears from her eyes.

The little beggar rushed over immediately, with panic and worry on his face, and asked anxiously, "Mother, what's the matter? Why is your face hurt and your hair is torn like this."

The woman looked at him with red and swollen eyes, and suddenly stretched out her hand to gently rub his forehead, crying: "Xian'er, Xian'er, the life of our mother is so miserable, the common people already know that your father is a traitor."

"At the beginning, I said that a person like him could not be a hero. I told you to be careful and not to be too happy, especially not to let everyone know that you are the daughter of the Lord Xinmaru."

"But my silly fairy, you finally couldn't hold back."

"Almost everyone who lives in our residential area knows the identities of our mother and daughter."

"If he is really a hero, then his identity will also be leaked. The common people respect him and miss him. They will definitely treat our mothers well and help us hide our identities..."

"But he's not a hero after all."

"Everything is false, and what is false can never become true."

"Xian'er, Xian'er, run away quickly, don't be caught by the Han people."

……

The little beggar had a ferocious look in his eyes, and he tried hard to keep his lips from yelling.

'He' tried his best to keep his voice down, for fear of scaring his mother, he asked softly: "Mother, who hit you with the wound on your face?"

"There is still hair, and it was also messed up. Who is it? Is it the neighbors you mentioned?"

The little beggar asked softly, but quietly clenched his hands into fists.

The woman obviously became flustered and panicked: "Xian'er, Xian'er, you must not mess around. You can't blame them for this matter, they just couldn't help being angry for a while."

"Xian'er, Xian'er, they didn't beat Mother, Mother fell down by herself."

"They didn't mess up the hair, it was me who accidentally broke the bun."

The woman continued to argue, her voice full of anxiety.

The little beggar took a deep breath, nodded lightly and said, "Okay, mother, remember my child, it wasn't those people who beat you."

As he spoke, he tried to put on a smile again, carefully held the two buns in front of the woman's eyes, and said softly, "Mom, let's eat first."

The woman's face was still anxious, she looked at 'him' with tears in her eyes, and kept saying, "Promise me first, you won't be jealous of those people."

The little beggar smiled obediently, and said, "You know, I have a gentle personality since I was a child. I don't know how to hold grudges, and I don't want to hold grudges."

As if letting go of a big stone in her heart, the woman let out a deep breath.

Chapter 417 [I want to enter your harem]

A few days later, in the city of Youzhou.

While reviewing the documents, Gu Tianya asked people in a gentle tone...

"Yuan Gai Su Wen specially sent someone to report to me that there is a talented young man in Xinmaru City. In this official recruiting competition, this young man has won three games in a row without any barriers!"

"And, they all defeated their opponents with great advantages!"

"I have already promulgated the decree on the recruitment of officials. Anyone who can pass the exam in Goguryeo can be selected for the official office and will be rewarded as an official."

"After the award is given to you as an official to sue, it means that you are a member of the Youyun Gu family. From then on, you can enjoy the salary and support your family."

"A few days ago, I received a report from the Anton Governor's Office, saying that all the candidates who won the test have accepted the paperwork. Now they have started to take up their duties as officials."

"However, what surprises me is that you, No.1, actually refused to accept the paperwork. Not only did you refuse to accept the paperwork, you also asked to see me..."

When Gu Tianya said this, the pen in his hand for reviewing the documents stopped slightly. He raised his head and looked at the little beggar in front of him, and asked with a smile: "Tell me, what do you want? Or, do you have any demands?" special purpose."

Not far from him, the little beggar stood respectfully with his hands drooping. Hearing this, he slightly raised his head, his eyes were clear.

Before she spoke, she took a deep breath, as if to muster up her courage, and then she answered respectfully, her voice soft and pleasant.

Said: "Everyone in the world knows that you are a wise man, not only knowledgeable, but also insight into people's hearts. Therefore, I dare not play tricks in front of you..."

Gu Tianya chuckled, and said flatly: "If you have something to say, there is no need to compliment. A smart child like you should understand that I don't care about compliments anymore at my current level."

The little beggar pursed his lips, nodded lightly and said, "Yes, you are right."

She really didn't dare to use complimenting language anymore, but began to answer solemnly, and said softly again: "In this official recruitment test, I used all my abilities to compete for the first place, three consecutive rounds, I win every game, and after every victory, there will be a large number of officials surrounding me, their tone is very eager, and they keep asking for my opinion..."

Gu Tianya seemed to have known about this situation a long time ago, so he continued to listen without interrupting.

The little beggar continued: "They surrounded me and asked me if I would accept the paperwork. As long as I am willing to accept it, I can become a member of them at any time."

The little beggar stopped talking, and then said: "From this point, we can see that Han officials value talents. The reason why they treat me eagerly and fight for me at the expense of friendship among colleagues is nothing more than because of my name. Number one, they want to recruit a talented subordinate."

"However, I chose to decline after three consecutive exams."

"And the reason why I choose to refuse is because I want more..."

The little beggar stopped talking again, his voice became a little strange, and he said softly: "Before I applied for the recruitment, I carefully studied the recruitment decree. It is precisely because I studied the recruitment decree thoroughly that I realized that this decree cannot give me what I want. s things!"

Gu Tianya smiled and encouraged: "Keep talking, I'm very interested in listening."

The little beggar took a deep breath again, and said: "According to this recruitment law, applicants are divided into three classes. For example, after the first exam, those who pass the exam can get official documents... The so-called official is a small class. Officials, that is to say, those who pass the first test can only be minor officials."

Gu Tianya finally interjected, and said with a smile: "Obviously, the position of a petty official can't satisfy you, right?"

The little beggar did not hide it, nodded in recognition, and replied respectfully: "You are right, the position of a petty official cannot satisfy me."

She followed up and said: "After the second exam, those who pass the test can get a confession document. The so-called confession document is a letter of appointment for an official. That is to say, only those who pass the second exam are considered officials." Ranks. Officials, not officials."

Gu Tianya missed another sentence, and said with a smile: "Obviously, the official position awarded in this second exam still can't satisfy your appetite?"

The little beggar's eyes sparkled, and he said softly, "Yes, because the official position is too low."

She pursed her lips as she spoke, secretly observed Gu Tianya's performance, and found that Gu Tianya didn't seem to be angry, so she said softly again: "The official position given in the second exam is only a small official in the yamen. For me, it's not enough."

"Then what about the third round?" Gu Tianya continued to smile, and asked meaningfully: "According to the decree I issued, those who pass the third round of the exam can be awarded the seventh-rank official status, and the seventh-rank official position is What is the concept? It is already equivalent to the county magistrate of Datang!"

Gu Tianya paused while talking, and said again: "The treatment of those who pass three consecutive games can directly change from white body to seventh-rank, and your treatment will be even higher, because you are No. 1."

The little beggar didn't hesitate, and blurted out: "Even so, I can only give it to an official of the seventh rank. The seventh rank is only equivalent to the county magistrate of the Tang Dynasty."

Gu Tianya shook his head with a laugh, and said, "Isn't that very low? I was only a postmaster back then."

The little beggar pursed his lips again, and said softly: "I can't compare with you, I don't have the ability to rise from the mud and take off. So, I think I was very high at the beginning, very high..."

Gu Tianya nodded, and thoughtfully said: "Now I understand why you keep refusing to apply. It turned out that the official position you were given was not enough, so you asked to see me."

As he spoke, he looked at the little beggar and asked with great interest, "So, what is your request?"

……

The little beggar raised her hand suddenly, and took off the veil on her head, and then she pulled out the hairpin, and three thousand black hairs fell down.

Her eyes were as clear as water, and she mustered up her courage to look at Gu Tianya, and said, "You should understand by now, I am a girl disguised as a man. So I have two intentions, and I will choose according to your wishes."

Gu Tianya was noncommittal, and said flatly: "Continue."

The little beggar took a deep breath, pointed at his hair full of black hair and said, "I show you my daughter body just to achieve the first intention. With your shrewdness and wisdom, you must have penetrated my mind."

Gu Tianya nodded, and said calmly again: "If my guess is correct, do you mean to marry me?"

The little beggar gave an 'hmm', his eyes sparkling, and asked back: "Then do you want me?"

Gu Tianya shook his head directly, and said bluntly: "First of all, I am not lustful. Second, I have a family. Third, government affairs are bothersome. Finally, I have no shortage of women for the time being."

He paused, and then continued: "Now I have one wife and four concubines, hey, no, I also have a well-known concubine, which was made by my wife who knocked me out with a stick and threw me on the bed. Outside the room, this matter has been spread all over the world, and you must have heard of it."

Gu Tianya laughed, looked at the little beggar and said: "One wife and four concubines, one room outside, for a man, this is already very satisfying. So, do you understand what I mean?"

Unexpectedly, the little beggar suddenly opened his mouth and argued: "But you are about to start a country, and you will be at the level of a monarch from now on. Since ancient times, how can there be only a few women in the queen palace of a monarch? One more of me is not too many, right?"

Gu Tianya laughed out loud, waved his hands and said, "I really want to found a country, but it's a vassal country."

The little beggar couldn't give in, and started reciting an ancient ritual of the Han family, and said loudly: "The lord of the princes, there should be three palaces. The first palace is called the official wife, the second palace is called the royal wife, and the third palace is called the imperial daughter...Wife, there is only one person. Wife, but two, imperial daughter, there are eight people... one wife, two wives and eight imperial daughters, and there are not enough concubines..."

Apparently the girl had made enough preparations, recited the ancient rites in a clear manner, and argued loudly: "Even if you are a prince, you can still enjoy more than a dozen women. If you count concubines, dozens or hundreds Not too much."

Gu Tianya's face was strange, and it took a long time to find out the rebuttal, saying: "What you recited was ancient rituals, and now it's not the Spring and Autumn Period of the Warring States Period."

It was a polite but firm refusal.

The little beggar was obviously disappointed, she lowered her head and sighed softly, but she suddenly raised her head again, staring straight at Gu Tianya, and summoned up her courage to ask, "Am I not pretty enough?"

Gu Tianya hesitated for a moment, but he was unwilling to lie after all, and replied: "You are very beautiful and have a good appearance. There has been an old saying since ancient times that women in Liaodong are like water... Han scholars even made up a few lines of poems specifically to describe you in Liaodong. Women's. For example, the gentle Silla maidservant, the delicate and soft Goryeo girl, with a slender waist and no bones, holding it in one hand."

As he spoke, he suddenly felt that something was wrong, so he quickly changed his words, and said with a little embarrassment: "These are all words made by Han scholars, and it's not that I'm lusting after women."

The little beggar immediately interjected, saying, "It's only natural for a man to be lustful."

Gu Tianya shook his head solemnly, and said, "It cannot be said to be justified."

The little beggar was smart and smart, so he didn't argue with him, but directly changed the subject, and suddenly asked, "Aren't I tender? I'm only 16 years old this year!"

Gu Tianya finally frowned, his face darkened, and said: "About this matter, I don't think we need to discuss it any further. If your request to see me is just this one request, then I can clearly tell you that you should go home gone."

The little beggar lowered his head with a face full of disappointment.

After a long while, she lifted it up again, and said softly: "Actually, I have already expected in my heart that a person like you can't be moved by women."

Gu Tianya gave her a deep look and asked, "Then, you should have second-hand preparations."

"Yes!" The little beggar did not hide anything, and smiled calmly at Gu Tianya.

At this time, she no longer mentioned the topic just now, but said with a solemn face: "I told you just now that I have two intentions for asking you to see you. As for whether it can be achieved, it will be determined according to your wish .”

After a pause, Youyou said again: "The first intention is the goal I am most eager to achieve. If I can become your concubine, it will be the best success."

"Unfortunately, you explicitly rejected me."

"Then, I'm left with only the second intention to achieve."

While she was talking, she used her hands to gather up the blue hair, then inserted the hairpin, and then put on the cap. At this time, she turned back into the young scholar who disguised herself as a man.

Just hearing her tone suddenly change, she became very solemn and solemn, clasped her fists in salute, begged respectfully, and said in a crisp voice: "There is an old saying in the Central Plains, which is called forgetting ancestors after counting classics. I would like to use this as an important minister under your command."

Gu Tianya took a deep look at her.

There is a full half a cup of tea time without reply.

What is amazing is that the little beggar can withstand this kind of silence. She just stood there quietly and waited, as if she had full confidence that she could get an answer.

Finally, Gu Tianya said slowly: "Although the Goguryeo people are extremely stubborn and have a strong xenophobia in their bones. But since you are standing in front of me today, I can tell you a secret... There are actually many Goguryeo people who are utilitarian.”

"They also made promises to me, even humbly begging, as long as I can give them power, they are willing to help me do anything."

"This also means that I don't actually lack Goguryeo people who are loyal to me."

"Then now comes the question, why do you let me choose you instead of them?"

"You said just now that you want to become an important minister under my command. Do you know that the word "important minister" is not just casually...the so-called important means reuse, and the so-called minister means a minister. When I found a country and become a prince, the people under my command The important ministers will be very important figures, and when I become emperor one day, what level will the important ministers under my command be?"

"Little girl, tell me, such a seat that everyone envies, why should I give you a Goguryeo man?"

"Just because you ranked first in three consecutive exams?"

"I can tell you that this alone is not enough!"

……

The tone of Gu Tianya's remarks was extremely serious and solemn. The reason why he was so solemn was obviously that he had expectations for the little beggar.

And the little beggar really lived up to his expectations.

This young girl seemed to have anticipated Gu Tianya's remarks.

Therefore, she has already prepared an answer that reflects her own value.

"The rule of Liao by the people of Liao is your method, and I can cooperate with your method."
