333.Chapter 349: Three Years of Change
After returning from Yizhou, Guo Ye no longer jumped out, no longer flying, and lived a boring life of filial piety.
Time, one year old and autumn;
manners, in-depth and concise.
As time passed, Guo Ye, the focal point, slowly faded out of the public eye of Longxi County.
Just after a year, Cheng Erniu took his wife Guo Xiaoman to say goodbye to his wife and Mrs. Guo, and under Guo Ye's order, he returned to Xichuan with 800 white-robed cavalry.
Two years
Three years,
Time flies, like a white horse passing through a gap, no one can catch the traces of time, and everything related to Guo Ye has long been a matter of fact.
Under the auspices of Guo Ye's brother-in-law Kang Bao, the Xichuan Xiaodu Hufu frequently heard good news. The 3,000 Xichuan Army that Guo Ye was concerned about, the big bazaar of the two countries, and Guo's Horse Farm were thriving, and they were getting more and more on the track.
Under the helm of Sun Mingyan, the Cao Gang developed rapidly, not only completely controlling the 800-mile Minjiang River Valley, but also spreading all the henchmen and forces throughout the rivers in Shuzhong.
The name of the Cao Gang is far and wide.
The old man Kang Yueshan took the initiative to resign from the post of lieutenant of Yizhou Zhichong because he reached the age of Zhishi, and told the old man to bring his wife and family to Longxi to live in his old age.
As for the post of Lieutenant of Yizhou, it was taken over by Kang Yueshan's old subordinate, Qiu Heng, the Lieutenant of Guoyi.
Obviously, although Kang Yueshan, the head snake, sent a resignation to his hometown and returned to his hometown, he still indirectly controlled the military power of Yizhou Mansion, but it turned from the bright side to the dark.
The unspoken rules in the officialdom and the army, don't talk about it.
As for Guo Ye's sworn enemy Yizhou assassin Shi Lu Chengqing, he stayed in Yizhou for three years, and collected a lot of money from the checkpoint tax money sent by the Cao Gang.
At that time, he was driven to Chang'an from the position of the left waiter of the military department, and three years later he was transferred back to Chang'an to serve as the left waiter of the ministry.
For Lu Chengqing's creation, Guo Ye was unexpected.
However, what he didn't expect was Lu Chengqing's doglegs, his old rival Cheng Wu Kui, who had been ravaged many times by Guo Ye.
This old thing was ravaged by Guo Ye at the gate of the Assassin's Mansion that time, and then because Lu Chengqing was concentrating on accumulating money and no longer valued him, he was depressed and depressed.
Half a year ago, Wu Kui's old dog had a whim and wanted to go to Bashu County, which is under the jurisdiction of Yizhou Prefecture, to get some oil and water to fight the autumn breeze, so he led people to Bashu County by boat.
Who knew that the luck was not good, when the boat returned, he encountered a hurricane on the Minjiang River, and the river wind and waves swept down, and Wu Kuilian and the people took the boat to overturn and sink to the bottom of the river.
He was killed along with dozens of accompanying officials.
The water of the Minjiang River, the beach is dangerous and rapid, there are river boats hitting the reef for many years, there are hurricanes capsizing boats, it is not uncommon. So far, Wu Kui's bones have not been found in the Yizhou Thorn History Mansion.
Lu Chengqing had already given up on Wu Kui, not to mention that Wu Kui was dead, so it was useless. So, he dismissed the idea of sending manpower and material resources to search for the bones, and the matter was over.
just wrote an excerpt at random, mentioning that Wu Kui, the Cheng of Yizhou County, went out on business, was martyred, and submitted it to the ministry, and did it hastily.
What happened on the Minjiang River, how could it be concealed from the Cao Gang, and it could escape Guo Ye's eyes, Wu Kui's death, whether it was a natural disaster, or **.
Perhaps, only Sun Mingyan and Guo Ye, the helmsmen of the Cao Gang, know in their hearts.
As for Leng Tianlin, the commander of Longxi County, because of Guo Ye's help and the assistance of the Cao Gang, he is like a fish in water in Longxi County, with good political achievements and a good official reputation, and is known as "Leng Qingtian" among the people of Longxi.
The Ministry of Officials has an official performance assessment every year, and Leng Tianlin has won the excellent evaluation of the Ministry of Officials for three consecutive years.
Guo Ye secretly speculated that as long as Leng Tianlin got another excellent evaluation from the ministry, eighty percent of them would be recalled to Chang'an next year and reused by the ministry.
Maybe stay in Chang'an, maybe it might be delegated to the state capital
Today's Fushun Lane is the first prosperous place in Longxi County.
In addition to the mansion of Guo Ye Guo Xiaoge, the famous man in Longxi, the mansion of Wu Maocai, the richest man in Longxi, and the mansion of Kang Yueshan, the former governor of Yizhou.
These three families are taken out individually, and they are all big families with major surnames in Longxi County that are difficult to recall.
What's more, these three families are all linked to their in-laws, and they all act as a group. In Longxi County, and even in the whole of Yizhou, it is a great force.
Because of these three, Fushun Lane has become the first feng shui treasure in Longxi County, and many Longxi wang families have moved to Fushun Lane, or migrated to the surroundings of Fushun Lane.
For a time, in this area centered on Fushun Lane, the land price and housing prices have risen, and over time, the slogan of "Luoyang paper is expensive, but it is difficult to be more expensive than Fushun Alley in Longxi" in the city
On this day, there are still three days left before the three-year period of Ding Wei's filial piety.
Guo Ye is strolling in the small courtyard where his study is located, and now he is nearly twenty years old, and he has reached the age of a weak crown.
Although the heroic spirit still exists, the immature cheeks at the beginning have long been gone, replaced by maturity and stability, and in recent years, some old talents have often been invited to teach themselves at home, which is a little more bookish.
He walked to a stone pier, sat down slowly, and muttered thoughtfully: "There are three days left, and it will be three years old. ”
After that, there was a hint of sadness on the cheeks that were still calm.
Because as long as the three-year period expires, he will leave Longxi and go to Chang'an to report to Guozijian.
This sorrowful taste is the homesick taste of leaving home.
After sighing, he sat alone on the stone pier, looking at the old ashamed trees that were withered everywhere and the bark of the stems was cracked, and a few withered yellow leaves fell from time to time, and he was stunned.
After a while, the squad leader who had stayed in Longxi for three years walked in with Zhao Jiuchou holding a letter and shouted at him: "My lord, a letter from Chang'an!" ”
"Oh?"
Guo Ye frowned, and couldn't help asking: "Is it a letter from Dongchang Fanzi in the dark night, or Guan Jiudoe?" ”
After Zhao Jiuchou looked at the envelope, he handed the letter to Guo Ye's hand and replied, "It's Guan Jiu." ”
Guo Ye sighed, tore open the fire sign on the envelope, took out the letter and read it carefully.
Soon, after reading the letter, Guo Ye crumpled the letter into a ball with an annoyed face and slammed it to the ground.
The round paper ball jumped a few times and rolled to Zhao Jiuchou's feet, Zhao Jiuchou looked at Guo Ye's expression, and asked carefully: "My lord, what did Guan Jiu Jiu say in his letter?" Could it be that there is any obstacle in Chang'an? ”
Guo Ye shook his head helplessly, and snorted: "There is no obstacle, this old boy is indeed shrewd, and he has made that restaurant of eight major cuisines, and in just three years, he has gained a firm foothold in Chang'an, and continues to operate, which is quite the trend of the largest restaurant in Chang'an." Hehe, the eight major cuisines of Haitian Feast Restaurant are also well-known in Chang'an City! ”
Haitian feast is the name of the restaurant opened by Guan Jiu in Chang'an.
This name was naturally taken by Guo Ye, and the deep intention shows Guo Ye's ambition.
sea, vast; Heaven, the highest; Sheng, grand; Feast, the only place to eat, a place to eat and drink.
In the name of this ambition, Guo Ye is bound to build Haitian Feast into the first restaurant in Chang'an, and even more so into the first restaurant group in Datang.
After Guo Ye Xiaoxiao praised Guan Jiujiu, he suddenly changed his words and reprimanded: "Guan Jiujiu is indeed shrewd and quite talented in management. But this guy is too disappointing to Lao Tzu, three years ago I said that I would open a club for fun, but so far, I haven't seen his movement. In this letter, he squeaked and persuaded Lao Tzu if he could dispel this idea. Grandma's, this old pedant didn't fight for three days, and he went to the house to uncover the tiles, and his skin was itchy! ”
Zhao Jiuchou asked: "Guan Jiu knows that it is imperative for adults to open this club. Why is he like this? ”
Guo Ye scolded with a smile: "Why else? This old pedant thinks he is a scholar, and he can't erase his face to engage in the affairs of the warbler and the swallow. ”
Zhao Jiuchou suddenly realized, oh, yes, this is in line with Guan Jiu's hypocrisy.
Then he persuaded: "Your Excellency, you don't need to be angry, you will leave for Chang'an in a few days." When you arrive in Chang'an, are you still afraid that Guan Dove, the old cub, will not obey? ”
Guo Ye laughed, nodded and said: "Yes, I haven't seen him for three years, this time I went to Chang'an, it's time to knock him." ”
"Haha......"
Zhao Jiuchou naturally knew what the beating in Guo Ye's mouth meant, and this time, Guan Jiujiu's will was about to be destroyed by Guo Xiaoge again.
Hearing Zhao Jiuchou's laughter, Guo Ye looked at the past three years, Zhao Jiuchou did not want money and official positions, and had been keeping his word to stay by his side to listen to the dispatch, and his heart was also quite moved.
Then he said sincerely: "Jiu Chou, you have worked hard for the past three years!" ”
Zhao Jiuchou shook his head, restrained his smile, and said, "Good man, keep your promise." Moreover, following the adults to do things, Zhao Jiuchou is not aggrieved. ”
Guo Ye listened, no longer spoke, just nodded silently, and hugged gratitude.
窸窸窣窣~~
The sound of lotus steps, which had been compact, suddenly came, and soon entered the small courtyard and came to Guo Ye and Zhao Jiuchou.
It is the more charming and touching housekeeper Zhenniang.
After three years, Zhenniang became more and more like a ripe red apple, no need to bite lightly, just stand by the side and smell it, it is sweet and delicious.
However, at this time, Zhenniang's face was a little anxious, and she didn't wait for Guo Ye to greet her, and she didn't have time to say a good fortune to Guo Ye, so she blurted out in a hurry:
"Big official, go to the old lady and take a look, it's on fire again~~"
The fire in Zhenniang's mouth is not really on fire, but a common name for people in Guo's house.
To put it bluntly, the young lady Wu Xiuxiu and the second aunt Kang Zhiru are on the same page.
In the past three years, although this wife and concubine did not give birth to a boy and a half girl to Guo Ye, it was a small quarrel for three days, and a big trouble in March, and the people in Guo Fuzhong have long been accustomed to it.
Guo Ye listened to Zhenniang's words, looked at her face, and counted the days with his fingers, it was almost the cycle of a big trouble in March.
Grandma's, these two are so worry-free!
Then he hummed and greeted Zhao Jiuchou: "Go, Jiuchou, take a look!" ”
Who knew that Zhao Jiuchou shook his hand again and again, and excused himself: "This is an adult's family matter, and Zhao will not mix it." The subordinates have other things, so they will leave first. ”
Boom~~~
Pull your legs and run, and flirt faster than a rabbit.
Guo Ye looked at the figure that would disappear soon, and scolded bitterly: "Damn, it's not kind! ”
immediately waved at Zhenniang and said, "Zhenniang, go, go and see, tell me on the way, what did they pinch up again today?" ”
Zhen Niang replied in a low voice, followed behind Guo Ye, and talked about the reason as she walked. , the home of reading! Unique URL:
