Chapter 1814: A Strange Valley
Gu Changqing was able to buy his daughter out and place it in Zhuangzi because she was a woman and couldn't get in the way.
But Master Yi is different, there may not be anything between him and the second prince, who can say it clearly when the time comes?
Gu Changqing couldn't make any more moves at that time.
What's more, if Gu Zikai dismissed Master Yi as soon as something happened, it would seem that Gu Zikai was cold, but this was Master Yi's initiative to resign, so it had nothing to do with Gu Zikai's side.
As long as Gu Zikai does a little more beautiful in the end, gives Master Zuyi road money, and then sends all kinds of gifts or something, firstly, he can gain a good reputation, and secondly, he can also solve the crisis around Gu Zikai, why not?
Gu Zikai also thought of this, so he readily agreed.
Master Yi couldn't think of so much at the moment, but when he figured it out, it was too late to regret it.
The Gu family is benevolent and righteous, and everything that should be done has been done, and there is no fault with it.
Mrs. Zhang then understood, thought about it, leaned into Wang Yongzhu's ear, and whispered: "You tell your mother honestly, is this calculated by your uncle?" Did your uncle entrust you with this trip? ”
This link is interlocking, since his daughter can receive the news, with the means of the eldest brother, can Gu Zikai, his own son, receive it?
Wang Yongzhu smiled and acquiesced.
Mrs. Zhang knew that with his eldest brother's calculations, he was afraid that Master Yi's calculations would reach his ears that day, and he would have a plan, but now he was just pushing the boat.
Sure enough, the officials of this court have dirty hearts!
Gu Zikai sent Master Yi out, turned back, and as soon as he entered the house, he first made a big salute to Wang Yongzhu: "Thank you cousin for your help!" ”
Wang Yongzhu avoided this salute and said with a smile: "They are all really relatives, why should my cousin be so polite?" Cousin, don't blame me for being troublesome! ”
Gu Zikai hurriedly said: "Don't hide it, after the last incident, I already had the intention of dismissing him, only because of my father's feelings, and Master Yi is also quite knowledgeable, after that time, he is very responsible, I also think, as long as he does his duty, no longer delusional about other things, it is not that he cannot be tolerated." ”
"Who knew that this rebellion, he was already wrapped in it, and it was not easy for us to save him, but he still didn't appreciate it, and he still wanted to rescue his daughter, which was really unbearable! If my cousin hadn't arrived in time today, I'm afraid I would have thought of a way to get him to resign automatically, but I'm afraid that the reputation would be hindered by the time it spreads. ”
"Fortunately, my cousin came to inform him of the news today and asked him to take the initiative to resign, but it also saved each other's face!"
Gu Zikai is not stupid, what Mrs. Zhang can see, he just turns a few more times in his head, and naturally understands, of course, he is grateful.
After being polite, I saw that Mrs. Zhang looked tired, so I hurriedly settled her first.
The two cousins were talking outside.
Gu Zikai asked about the situation in the capital, Wang Yongzhu said everything one by one, and finally said: "This time the reward after the fact, the Gu family must be indispensable." Now this situation, it is estimated that it will not be sealed on the head of the eldest uncle, but several cousins may have to mention it this year or next year, I don't know what Cousin Zikai thinks? If so, it would have been possible to operate in advance. ”
Gu Zikai pondered for a while before he said: "Big brother has been out for many years, and now he can take advantage of this opportunity to return to the capital." The other brothers can also go up the position, as for me, the time to Yunzhong County is still short, but I can hone it for a few more years. ”
Wang Yongzhu immediately understood what Gu Zikai meant, so he didn't persuade much, but said: "Speaking of which, when people were asked to explore the gold mine, do you have a clue now?" ”
Speaking of this, Gu Zikai came to the spirit: "Coincidentally, the people who explored the gold mine yesterday all came back, saying that there was good news, but because Master Yi was close, I thought about sending people away, and then let them come back carefully." Now that you're here, let's hear it together. ”
Wang Yongzhu naturally has no opinion.
Gu Zikai had already arranged people to rest behind the county office, and at this moment let people go to pass it, and it didn't take long for people to come.
These people were Song Chongjin and Wang Yongzhu's original subordinates, and they came up to salute first, and without waiting for Wang Yongzhu to ask carefully, they made their findings clear and understandable.
For more than a year, they rarely returned to the county, and spent most of their time in the wilderness, in the valley and river, and at first they went up along the river, because there were many tributaries in the river, and it was not easy for them to explore the past one by one.
Thanks to Song Chongjin and Wang Yongzhu's generosity, the reward is sufficient, and the supplies are abundant, these men are also people who are not afraid of hardship, and they have persevered until now.
In the past year, they have surveyed almost all the upstream tributaries of the Yunzhong River.
Not long ago, I finally found some clues and strange places in several river valleys near the grassland.
As he spoke, he presented them with a simple hand-drawn map.
Wang Yongzhu and Gu Zikai went up to take a look, although the map was drawn simply, it was also clear and clear, indicating where Yunzhong County was, along the Yunzhong River, what tributaries there were, and how far away they were.
One of the river valleys they found was within Yunzhong County, about the same distance from the county seat and grassland.
This is a small tributary, and deep in the mountains, it is rarely inhabited.
It is not easy to get in, the tributary is a dark river, through a cave, which is more than ten meters away, and it is necessary to dive.
After passing through the dark river, the exit is also a cave, and it winds along the cave for about two quarters of an hour before exiting the cave.
There was a valley on the other side of the cave, and they searched along the valley, but they found a lot of strange places.
It seems that someone once left traces of activity, and there are some strange patterns on the stone walls.
Wang Yongzhu raised his eyebrows, but he was interested.
The group of people who searched were bold and careful, and they rubbed the patterns on paper, wrapped them in oiled paper, and brought them out.
At this moment, it is also presented on the bookcase.
Wang Yongzhu took the stack of papers, flipped through a few sheets, and suddenly his eyes froze, this seems to be some kind of text?
Does it seem like there's a pattern?
Wang Yongzhu's heart was shocked, but his face was still steady, and he only turned his head and asked the person who was searching: "Is there anything else to discover?" ”
The seekers found nothing but this in this valley.
On the contrary, in another valley, they found traces of gold mines, and they had already collected samples, and in this valley they had picked up a few pieces of dog's head gold, and brought them all back.
As he spoke, someone brought up the dog's head gold that he had picked up.
It can be seen that this dog's head is in good condition, if what he said is true, then Gu Zikai's credit will be in hand.
Gu Zikai also thought of this, he was overjoyed, looking at the dog's head gold, he really couldn't put it down.
It took a long time to come back to his senses, and he looked at Wang Yongzhu's eyes full of gratitude.
You must know that this is the credit given to him by Song Chongjin and Wang Yongzhubai.
