I dare not

The author has something to say: Big brother does ideological mobilization work for younger siblings

Prince Yu's Mansion is located in the quietest part of Suzaku Street. The mansion's specifications are very high, the size of five Ouyang Mansions.

There is a very unique small lake in the mansion, Gu Qiao was led by the maid to the small building by the lake.

The servant girl stopped at the entrance of the small building and blessed her body, "My lord is waiting for you upstairs."

Yuwang's small building does not allow people to come in and out at will, and the maid did not dare to go upstairs, so she turned around and left after sending Gu Qiao to the door.

The door was ajar, Gu Qiao knocked on the door but before saying anything, a lazy male voice came from upstairs: "Come on!"

Climbing up the steps, passing through the exquisite moon gate, I saw a man with white gauze over his eyes sitting in a wheelchair by the window.

Although King Yu is disabled, his dignity and elegance are not damaged in the slightest.

Gu Qiao bowed respectfully, "My humble minister, Gu Qiao, see His Royal Highness King Yu."

King Yu held a gold-encrusted agate cup in his hand, nodded slightly and said, "There is no need to be formal about picking up relics, just sit down."

As he spoke, he tilted his chin to signal him to sit on the short bench.

Gu Qiao thanked her and walked over to sit down.

King Yu nestled in the thick animal skin on the wheelchair, and said straight to the point: "The third brother told me that you want to check the documents and files of the Shaofu Prison."

"Yes, about the Lianzhou Gold Mine."

"Tell me."

King Yu's mouth and chin looked like Xiang Zenan's, and when he spoke, his tone and expression were very much like the emperor's. Gu Qiao lost his mind for a while, and then told the story of the Chen Jinshan gold mine from beginning to end.

"I suspect that there is no back mountain of Daci'en Temple on the official survey map," Gu Qiao said, "If you can get the drawing of the Shaofu Prison, it will be confirmed."

Yu Wang leaned on the wheelchair as if he had no strength, "The annual output of Lianzhou Gold Mine is equivalent to the sum of the output of other gold mines in the entire Hao Kingdom. If it is true as you said, then the actual output should be more than double. Do you have solid evidence?"

"The Third Highness has arranged for Wu Heng to go home to pick up the book. If it is really the survey manuscript from that year, the evidence will be conclusive."

King Yu nodded, "I have news from the Shaofu Supervisor and I will send someone to pick you up."

"My minister thanked His Royal Highness King Yu."

Even after the matter was finished, Gu Qiao thought it was time to leave, but King Yu put the glass cup on the table and signaled him to pour the wine.

Gu Qiao poured it for him, and he asked Gu Qiao to pour it for himself.

King Yu casually raised the cup in his hand, "Gu Shiyi, what do you think of the third child?"

Gu Qiao wasn't sure what King Yu meant, so he replied in a well-regulated manner: "Your Highness, you have the ability to manage the world."

"When you were in Lianzhou, you knew that he was capable of running the world?"

Does this mean that he suspected that he was deliberately close to the third prince in Lianzhou?

Gu Qiao said, "When I was in Lianzhou, I didn't know the third prince. Only after I returned to Beijing did I know that it belonged to the third prince."

King Yu turned his face to Gu Qiao, and the white gauze covered his eyes, but it made people feel that he was staring at you, "You once said that you didn't want to stand in line with the third prince."

Gu Qiao's scalp became numb from being "stared" by him. He said this in front of the teacher, and King Yu would know it?

It seems that Ouyang Mansion has King Yu's eyeliner.

Gu Qiao thought for a while, and said calmly: "I did say that I don't want to participate in the factional struggle between the DPRK and China."

King Yu sneered, "literati like you are the most hypocritical. While getting close to the prince, you boast of being noble at the same time. Since you don't really support the third child, why did you come to me?"

Gu Qiao himself had a clear conscience and didn't care about King Yu's accusations, "It's inconvenient for courtiers to discuss royal affairs, but since His Royal Highness King Yu talked about who to support, I have the courage to discuss it. As a pick-up, I It is my responsibility to remonstrate with the king. The current king is the current majesty. If you want to support your majesty, the humble officials will naturally support your majesty. Instability, insecurity, and loss of life are the sufferings of the common people. Now, Your Highness Yu Wang, you have no intention of taking the throne, and the position of the crown prince is only between the Second Highness and the Third Highness. My minister thinks that the Third Highness is more suitable."

"Oh?" King Yu said in a playful tone, "Gu Shiyi's bet is a little unpopular. Everyone in the court knows that the current emperor loves the second prince even more. With the powerful help of He Xiang, isn't the second prince's chance of winning even greater? On this point, you may not be as clear as your teacher Ouyang Chigong."

"His Royal Highness Yu Wang's words are wrong," Gu Qiao said sternly, "I think that the crown prince of a country is only related to its virtues and talents, not who has a greater chance of winning. The second prince is loved by His Majesty, but the third high Lianzhou has been victimized so far and the truth has not been found out, and the government does not even allow discussion of this matter, so people can't help but think about it. I personally think that using such methods to treat brothers and feet must be a moral disadvantage."

Gu Qiao was beaten by Ouyang Chigong not to talk about Lianzhou with anyone, and no more than ten people in the court knew the truth about the third prince's poisoning.However, the third prince did not return for a long time, and rumors spread everywhere in the harem, and it was inevitable that the rumors would spread to the former court.Everyone knows that the second prince wants to harm the third prince.

King Yu said: "What does Gu Shiyi mean, my third brother was killed by my second brother?"

This question is too sharp, even if he knew it well, no one in the court dared to answer it, but Gu Qiao said: "I think it is very possible."

King Yu raised his eyebrows in surprise, "So you support the third child because you think the second child has a problem with his character, hehe, interesting. Then what do you think of the third child's character?"

"When I was in Lianzhou, the Third Highness was as mental as a child, and I couldn't judge. However, listening to the political opinions of the Third Highness in the court these two days, I can always start from the subtleties to improve people's livelihood. If I didn't put myself in Lianzhou to understand the people's situation , I can’t bring it up. Compared with the second prince’s high-spirited talk, it’s a matter of opinion.”

"So you think so," Yu Wang looked at the lake outside the window, and said thoughtfully: "The second prince will fail once, and there will be a second time. Once he succeeds, the virtue and character you value are useless gone."

Gu Qiao was a little heartbroken by what he said.That's right, the third child was killed so badly in Lianzhou, if he hadn't just met him, wouldn't the world have to be handed over to the second prince who has no virtue?At this time, if you are a good official who does not stand in line and does not participate in factional struggles, what is the difference from a coward who is famous and protects his life and ignores the country and society?

What's more... Just thinking about the possibility that the third child might be murdered makes one's heart ache... How about sending him to that position with his own hands, and standing on the cusp of the storm for him alone?

King Yu drank all the wine in his glass, and before he could speak, he issued an order to drive away the guests: "You go by yourself, I won't see you off."

Gu Qiao went downstairs, and when she reached the lake, she turned her head and saw King Yu still sitting by the window.I can't help but feel a little disappointed. If this person is in good health, what will happen to the current situation?Will the third child be able to escape completely?Or will the same mother and compatriots also fight to the death?

The previous officialdom attacks were all verbal criticism on the bright side, and it was only after meeting King Yu that he realized for the first time that this was a struggle for the reserve position, a life-and-death competition.

Gu Qiao was raised as a sage and sage since she was a child, and she pretended to be the people's livelihood in her heart. She set the goal of being upright and honest. She never thought of participating in such a power struggle, but now she has to think about it.
