After the powerful minister was reborn, he married the delicate girl back home
Chapter 24 Past events
What the Gu family ate this morning was corn buns, pickles and yesterday's leftovers, which was already a rich meal for them. However, Mrs. Gu Xu was still worried that she would neglect Lu Qianzhu, so she steamed them separately for him and Li Jiaorong. A bowl of egg custard.
The noodles that have been left overnight have become sticky. Although the appearance is not very good, the taste is still good. It has lost the chewy texture when it was fresh, but has a different mellow flavor in the softness.
Some people disliked it, while others loved it. It happened that Li Jiarong liked this kind of noodles very much, and she ate them with a face of satisfaction.
Seeing that she was eating well, Lu Qianzhu smacked his lips and suddenly became a little greedy. He took a small bowl and was about to serve it. Gu Xu stood up and wanted to help him, but he pushed her back to the chair.
"Aunt Gu, have a good rest, I'll do it myself."
After saying that, Lu Qianzhu walked towards the kitchen with the bowl in hand.
Watching her leave, Mrs. Gu Xu bit the garlic clove in her hand and whispered, "I think this young master is quite well-behaved and not squeamish. So why is Dean Lu dissatisfied?"
After saying that, he took another big bite of the garlic clove and drank it with the noodles in the bowl. After a while, the bowl reached the bottom.
The big iron spoon that Gu Xu used to cook was a bit heavy. Lu Qianzhu struggled to fill half a bowl for himself. He returned to the house and learned how to eat like Gu Xu, noodles with garlic, and then his belly was full. A great day.
After breakfast, the second elder of the Gu family went to work in the fields. Li Jiaorong helped Wang Cuiliu clean up the dishes. Lu Qianzhu was afraid that Brother Gu would let him read again, so he quickly picked up a small bamboo basket and followed the second elder of the Gu family step by step. He hasn't been to the ground yet, and everything he sees along the way is strange.
Suddenly, he saw two trees not far away and found that there were many small black fruits on them. This made him very curious. He quickly tugged on Gu Dashan's sleeve and asked: "Uncle Gu, What is that? It’s still black.”
"That's the fruit of the mulberry tree. It's called mulberry. It's sour and sweet. Do you want to eat it?"
It seemed that he had eaten mulberries before, but it seemed that he had never eaten them before. Lu Qianzhu scratched his little head, and for a moment he began to fantasize about the taste of mulberries, and replied: "I want to eat them."
"Okay, Uncle Gu will pick it for you, wait."
Gu Dashan put down the farm tools in his hands, then knocked on the door of the house next to him. After getting the owner's permission, he climbed up the mulberry tree with his bare hands, used the corner of his clothes as a pocket, and picked a lot of small fruits for Lu Qianzhu.
Lu Qianzhu took it with both hands and stuffed a large handful into his mouth. The sweet and sour taste immediately spread in his mouth. The purple-black juice flowed too much and slowly flowed out from the corners of his mouth, even through his teeth. It was also stained with a lot of black, and he wiped it with his sleeve. Lu Qianzhu was very happy to eat.
The second eldest son of the Gu family walked in front, and he followed in small steps, eating as he walked, looking very naive and cute.
The villagers passing by were very happy to see him, and asked with a smile: "Hey, where did this little baby come from? He is so handsome, and he is white and fat. He looks lucky at first sight."
The second elder of the Gu family was very happy that the child was praised. After a few people exchanged greetings, the three of them finally arrived in the field.
Gu Dashan was busy hoeing, and Gu Xu started to help water the crops. As for Lu Qianzhu, he just finished eating the mulberries in his hand and turned his attention to the small red fruit on the side. It looked delicious, but he just didn't know If it was poisonous, he asked Gu Xu carefully. After learning that it was edible, he was completely relieved and went up to pick the small wild fruit.
It stands to reason that a seven-year-old baby is in its prime and is difficult to take care of. However, Lu Qianzhu is very well-behaved and doesn't like to act petty. He sits in the fields and plays, and from time to time he comes to help the two elders of the Gu family with farm work, which makes the two of them feel sad. All are sweet.
Afraid that the sun would scorch him, Mrs. Gu Xu wanted to take him home, but Lu Qianzhu was unwilling and pouted in dissatisfaction, and the two of them said nothing more.
Finally, Gu Dashan borrowed a small straw hat from someone else and put it on him. Lu Qianzhu thought it was novel and would touch it from time to time. Seeing that he liked it, Gu Dashan said that he could knit it too and would knit one for him when he went back in the evening. The arrival of the new one made Lu Qianzhu even happier.
Eating sweet and sour wild fruits, leaning down to see the ants on the ground, waiting for the sudden leap of the grasshopper... This countryside gave Lu Qianzhu too many surprises.
But without him by their side, Lu Yuanzhou and Qin Wan felt uncomfortable, each of them seemed to be weak.
For Lu Qianzhu, this day passed too quickly, but for Lu Yuanzhou and his wife, it was like a year. They only hoped that tomorrow would come quickly.
After a day of fun, Lu Qianzhu was exhausted and went to bed early to rest, still holding the bamboo dragonfly that Gu Dashan had made for him.
Gu Xingmo carefully took the bamboo dragonfly from his hand, placed it gently on the table, stared at his dishonest sleeping posture, and then turned around, thinking about something that had nothing to do with Lu Qianzhu.
The results of the government examination should be out in the next two days. Since I am not here, the person in charge of the case should be Xiao Zijue.
Looking back on the last life, Zhang Xu ruined half his career because of his open mouth and died of regret, while Xiao Zijue committed suicide because he was on the wrong team.
I remember that at that time, the Holy Emperor was no longer very good at physical fitness. Several princes secretly kept an eye on that position and even quietly cultivated their own power. However, Xiao Zijue finally chose to follow the second prince with a good reputation. The second prince was ambitious and He is courageous and indeed a good successor.
But Cui Yutao had a sister who was named a noble concubine after entering the palace and raised the fifth prince under her knees.
The biological mother of the fifth prince was just a palace servant with no big background and was easy to control. Cui Yutao wanted to support her to rise to power and take the opportunity to strengthen the power of the Cui family.
But it is not easy to do this. The fifth prince has mediocre qualifications and a cowardly character, and is not liked by the emperor. Cui Yutao wants him to rise to the top. It is as difficult as climbing to the sky. But if the other princes are dead or disabled... the final winner will not be Is it him?
The third prince who loved playing polo became lame, the fourth prince who loved beauty was infected with syphilis, and the sixth prince died from taking Wudu powder... Going around and around, accidents happened to the princes in the palace one after another, except for the second prince. Apart from this powerful rival, the fifth prince had no rivals due to the power of the Cui family.
So Cui Yutao asked someone to report the news that the second prince was secretly recruiting soldiers, and then sent people to secretly hide the dragon robe and the national seal in his mansion. Finally, the second prince was sentenced to be cut in half, and all the bureaucrats and retainers who followed him were to be chopped off. head.
Gu Xingmo secretly bribed the executioner, rescued Xiao Zijue, and hid him in a farmer's house in the suburbs.
Perhaps feeling despair and wanting to follow his old master, or perhaps not wanting to implicate his former friends, Xiao Zijue found a hatchet and wiped his neck.
Then in this world, he has no friends anymore...
Cui Yutao deserves to die, Cui Chuanchuo deserves to die, and the Cui family members all deserve to die. Even if they are cut into pieces, it will not be able to relieve the hatred in his heart.
Seeing that it was a foregone conclusion that the fifth prince would ascend to the throne, Gu Xingmo was unwilling to do anything. Just when he was at his wits' end, he accidentally met the young prince who was born in a cold palace.
In order to prevent him from being persecuted by Cui Yutao, Gu Xingmo immediately sent his confidants to send the prince to Qinshan Temple and put him under the care of Princess Roujia, the biological sister of the emperor's first mother. Xu Shi understood the situation of the Northern Dynasties. Already unstable, Princess Roujia sent her last letter to the border, asking the general of the Hussars to return to the court and help the capital.
Although Cui Yutao had the power, he was only a civil servant, so he wanted to win over the hussar general and increase his military strength to provide double guarantee for the fifth prince to ascend the throne.
Gu Xingmo understood what he was thinking, but he also knew that this was the best opportunity to overthrow the Cui family.
So, he personally went to the Qinshan Temple to visit Princess Roujia, and asked her to check out the Cui family scandals that he could temporarily touch, and begged her to recommend him to General Hussar. The home was completely destroyed by this borer.
General Hussar and Princess Roujia were childhood sweethearts. Although I don’t know why one of them is ‘accompanying the ancient Buddha with a green lantern’ and the other is ‘guarding the border all the year round’, there is still affection between them. Otherwise, how can it be called Hussar if it is just a letter? What about the general returning to the capital after decades of absence?
I thought it would take a long time to persuade her, but Princess Roujia agreed quickly, which made Gu Xingmo feel relieved.
Before leaving, the eldest princess Roujia suddenly asked herself if she was from a place called Gujiacun. Gu Xingmo was a little confused about how the eldest princess who was far away in the capital knew this place.
She looked at herself, obviously wanting to say something, but in the end she just waved her hand and let herself leave.
Although he was confused, Gu Xingmo didn't care about Princess Roujia's abnormality. What he was thinking about now was to bring down the Cui family. This was his only wish.
Finally, a few years later, the Cui family fell.
He was already in his forties at that time. From being the number one scholar to now, it took him half his life to overthrow the Cui family.
The little prince who he had hidden in the Qinshan Temple in the past became the only bloodline of the Holy Emperor. Since he ascended the throne, Gu Xingmo has been helping him with all his heart, and this is how the later 'Emperor's Wake', 'Hundreds of officials carry the coffin', 'The whole country mourns'...
Life has been very long, but it seems to have happened in the blink of an eye in his mind. After thinking about his last life, Gu Xingmo began to think about his future future. Should he follow the second prince?
No, no, no, he will follow whoever is the emperor...
