The next day, near noon, Gu Hengcai walked into the courtyard nervously, and as soon as he entered the courtyard gate, he heard laughter from inside, and his mood suddenly relaxed.

When he left last night, he wasn't sure if Liu Han would accept it, but now when he heard the laughter in the room, his mood suddenly improved.

Strictly speaking, this is considered bribery, but after thinking about it, Gu Heng still had to do this, he knew full well that his life and even the entire Gu Mansion were in the hands of Liu Han.

Sending silver, he is not sure how much to give, I am afraid that it will backfire if it is less, and judging from the exchanges during this time, Liu Han is not like a person who is short of silver, if he wants to send silver, it must be a huge amount of money, which is beyond his current ability.

After all, the only way to do it is to send women, but what kind of woman does Liu Han like? Gu Heng is not sure, Liu Han's expression when Zhu Niang and Mei Niang played together yesterday gave him an idea.

"Luckily, I haven't touched these two. Gu Heng was secretly glad in his heart, there was another burst of laughter in the room, and Gu Heng was hesitating whether to go in or not.

"Since you're here, come in, I'm looking for you. ”

Hearing Liu Han's words, he saw Mei Niang and Zhu Niang open the door curtain and come out, and when they saw Gu Heng, the two girls saluted him slightly, and Gu Heng smiled faintly at the two girls.

The two women lowered their heads shyly and stood silently on the side, waiting for Gu Heng to go in before leaving.

But at this moment, Gu Heng had already felt the change between the two women, it was the dazzling brilliance of the dried flowers after being moistened.

"It's a pity. Gu Heng muttered in his heart, but laughed loudly: "Brother Wu!"

But as soon as he saw Liu Han's gloomy face, he couldn't help but chuckle in his heart, Liu Han sat on the left, his expression was gloomy, and his eyes were cold.

"Great, my lord, last night was good. Gu Heng said cautiously.

Liu Leng smiled coldly: "Very good, very comfortable, the two beauties are very beautiful and understanding." ”

Gu Heng couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, his expression was slower, and Liu Han sneered again: "However, I'm suspicious, so I can't help but think, why did you send me a woman, to be honest, sending a woman, this is not unusual, but sending my father's concubine, this makes me wonder a little, so, I want to hear your explanation." ”

A layer of cold sweat broke out on Gu Heng's vest, and he couldn't help but tremble under Liu's cold gaze.

"Big, adult," Gu Heng shouted a little flusteredly, Liu Han didn't say anything but stared at him, Gu Heng knelt down: "Adult, small, small, no other intention, it's just, I think of it, I, hundreds of people in my family are all in the thought of adults, fear, fear, neglect, that's why I made this decision." ”

Liu Han said slowly: "Do you think that two women can buy me? buy the safety of your Gu family? If you think like this, then it can only prove one thing, you are a fool, if I really want to cure your Gu family's crimes, I would have dealt with it a long time ago, to tell you the truth, the palace has already given me power, Yangzhou internal security rectification, I have full authority to dispose of it, I will kill you all over the house, this woman of Gu Mansion is not at my disposal." ”

Gu Heng hurriedly said gratefully: "Yes, yes, the little one is stupid, but the little one really doesn't have a bad heart, I always feel it, I don't want to hit the smiling person, the small one is in business all the year round, internally, no, I am not familiar with the things in it, according to common sense, I want to give gifts." ”

Liu Han couldn't help but be happy, he shook his head slightly with a wry smile, Gu Heng suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and Liu Han ordered: "Get up, it's cold on the ground." ”

Gu Heng hurriedly got up, but he didn't dare to sit down, standing on the side carefully, Liu Han thought about it a little and said: "Last night, I thought about it again, Sheng Huai has been in Yangzhou for ten years, and people up and down Yangzhou are estimated to have been opened, but what about the counties below? I don't think so, otherwise the first emperor would not have put up with him until now, so, Wu County, Jiankang, there should be traces, I want you to go to Jiankang to see if you can find a breakthrough in Jiankang." ”

Gu Heng was slightly stunned, and then understood that this was Liu Han's punishment for him, but then he thought about it, this might be a good thing, so he agreed without hesitation.

"Yes, my lord, I'll leave at once. ”

"Don't be in such a hurry," Liu Han shook his head: "There must be a definite reason, three days, three days, find a proper reason, and be healthy in the bright future." ”

Gu Heng nodded, then hesitated: "What if Jiankang doesn't find it?"

"Then you have to work hard, go to Wu County, and see the Jiangnan Society and Wu County Guān Chǎng. Liu Han said.

"Jiangnan Society?" Gu Heng thought seriously and asked, "Do I want to bring a few people?"

Liu Han stared at him, and Gu Heng smiled awkwardly: "I, my lord, I don't know what to do yet?"

Liu Han nodded, accepting his justification, and thought about it slightly: "As an internal guard, a hidden word, you must be careful everywhere in your work, the usual job of the internal guard is to collect intelligence, all kinds of information, major information is reported to the palace, some information that does not seem to be very important, just keep it in your mind, and it may be useful in the future." ”

Gu Heng nodded while listening, Liu Han glanced at him, and said in his heart that he would teach you first, as for what you can do, it's up to you.

"The second point, you have to have an intelligence source, so, usually you have to be good at dancing, make more friends, so that everyone is not guarded against you, so, you have to have an identity cover-up, in addition, you must also develop intelligence officers, of course, you must have authorization, without authorization, you can't develop intelligence officers, do you understand?"

"Understood. Gu Heng nodded hurriedly, and Liu Han continued: "The internal guards have a monthly salary every month, but not much, sometimes you need silver to get information, don't be stingy with silver, you have to remember that as long as the palace is satisfied, you will get much more benefits than you pay." ”

"Yes, my subordinates understand. Gu Heng hurriedly nodded, full of gratitude to Liu Han, and then asked, "Can that subordinate develop intelligence officers?" ”

"Yes, I'll give it to you. Liu Han nodded without hesitation: "If you want to regain the position of Yangzhou internal security chief, you must gain the trust of the palace, your father is very poor in the deployment of intelligence officers, I hope you will learn a lesson." ”

"Yes, my subordinates understand. Gu Heng hurriedly responded.

Liu Han smiled: "What do you understand, how your father arranged the intelligence officer, do you know?"

Gu Heng smiled slightly embarrassedly, Liu Han's expression froze, and he said with a straight face: "If you want to get back the position of head manager, the most disadvantageous thing for you is precisely the problem left by your father, your father's identity has been exposed, so I don't know if your identity has been exposed, it is up to you to confirm it." ”

"It may not be your father's problem, it may also be Gu Jian's Gu Wei's problem, who are our internal guards, the eyes and ears of the emperor, staring at a guy like Sheng Huai for the emperor, so when deploying intelligence officers, we must look for people who are inconspicuous but in key positions, such as Sheng Huai's family, his son's wet nurse, his wife's girl, simply put, people in his family who can access secrets. ”

Gu Heng nodded thoughtfully, and Liu Han didn't care whether he understood it or not, and continued: "On the other hand, you can know that when you use people, you should pay attention to those aspects, and anyone who can access your secrets must be very cautious. ”

"The subordinate understood. Gu Heng's words were convincing, before, he almost didn't understand the internal security at all, after Liu Han's words, he understood a little, but it was precisely understood, he was a little frustrated, with his current qualifications and ability, it was too difficult to get back the head of the internal security in Yangzhou.

Liu Han saw his thoughts, and smiled in his heart, this guy finally understood how many catties and taels he had.

"Some things take time to accumulate, and you will know it slowly," Liu Han said: "Yangzhou's internal guards have been weakened very much, many people who should be clothed do not have cloth, and there is an extreme shortage of intelligence officers and operators, this is an opportunity for you." ”

Liu Han kept staring at Gu Heng, and when he heard the opportunity, a trace of excitement flashed in Gu Heng's eyes, and this excitement passed quickly, but he was still seen by Liu Han.

"In the internal guard, the biggest taboo is impatience, the manpower you can mobilize now, only the people in the Gu Mansion are left, but, don't forget, Gu Jian and Gu Wei are all from your Gu Mansion, although you have cleaned up the mansion, can you guarantee that it will be cleaned up?"

Gu Heng's heart froze, and his face was suddenly sad: "My lord, this, that." ”

"So, don't take it lightly, don't think that it will be clean when it is cleaned up, there are many intrigues and tricks in it. ”

Gu Heng could only bow down with sincerity and convincing, and bowed down: "Thank you for teaching." ”

"Thank you for not needing," Liu Han said with a smile: "After finishing business, let's talk about something else." ”

Gu Heng breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "My lord"

"Take it easy, as before. Liu Han said with a smile, paused, and asked: "This Mei Niang and Zhu Niang are your father's concubines, if you let them serve me, aren't you afraid that it won't sound good?"

"Then, that subordinate is presumptuous, my lord," Gu Heng accepted it after hesitation, first apologized, and then smiled: "This matter is too much for adults, in fact, this kind of thing is a common thing in those big families, but everyone doesn't say it, besides, many people give them away to sell in the market, what's this." ”

Liu Han frowned slightly, he was worried about what would happen to this matter when it came to the palace in the future, of course, he didn't care that others thought he was a womanizer, it was good for him.

"Adults don't know, these three years ago, our most famous Qinglou girl in Yangzhou is the Yuyan girl of Yayin Pavilion, this Yuyan girl is actually from the Yu family, is the concubine of the fourth master of Yu, after the fourth master Yu died, the Yu family sold her to the Yayin Pavilion and became the top red girl of the Yayin Pavilion. Gu Heng said with a smile.

Liu Han was very surprised and puzzled: "Isn't the Yu family afraid of being embarrassed?"

Gu Heng looked at him very strangely, in the family of the scholar clan, the main wife is considered to be a member of the family, and the concubine is just a subordinate with a slightly higher status than the singer and dancer.

This is beyond Liu Han's understanding, although this Aunt Zhao has no seat in front of Jia's mother, she is still half the master of Jiafu, and the status of the concubine in this era is inevitably too low.

Looking at Gu Heng's smiling face, Liu Han frowned slightly, his mind turned around, and he smiled: "To be honest, have you beaten them?"

Gu Heng shook his head slightly: "It's still up to me, they will come up by themselves, staying in the house, brocade clothes and jade food, having someone to serve at home, going out with a car and a sedan chair, out of the house, they can still get by, big, oh, Brother Wu, you haven't had a hard life, they are going to leave the house, ordinary people can't afford it, and rich people can't look down on it." ”

Liu Han couldn't help but shake his head, and Gu Heng continued: "I won't tell you, my father has more than a dozen concubines, and six or seven have already come to seduce me, and the remaining ones are too old." ”

Liu Han couldn't help but smile bitterly: "By the way, what about your half-sisters?"

Gu Heng said: "There are three to marry, and there are three to be written, one is already engaged, and the dowry is down, the in-laws are Jiankang's Zhao family, and the remaining two are still young, and they can only be said to be in-laws in two years." ”

"Where do you want to go?" Liu Han shook his head, Gu Heng said in such detail, I am afraid that he is still worried about the idea of beating him.

"I'm just curious, worried that if this gets out, I'll blame it. ”

"So that's the case, Brother Wu doesn't need to worry about it, this matter"

Liu Han shook his head: "Don't say that it won't be passed on, you have to remember that anything can be passed out, and there is no complete secret." ”

Gu Heng was slightly stunned, and suddenly understood, Liu Han was worried, he hurriedly said: "Even if this matter spreads, it will be fine, don't say anything else, just say Sheng Huai, he has received a woman from others, and now the county magistrate of Yancheng spent a lot of money to buy two Qinglou girls to give to him, Brother Wu, send a woman, what is it, it is nothing at all." ”

After a little hesitation, Gu Heng asked in a low voice, "Brother Wu is still satisfied with Mei Niang and Zhu Niang?"

Liu Han didn't speak, to be honest, during this time, he was also holding back, and he vented last night, which made him brisk, and it was not bad to have such two women.

Seeing Liu Han's expression, Gu Heng nodded clearly: "Brother Wu, in the future, I will let them live in this courtyard, if that day, the adults have a house in Yangzhou, or leave Yangzhou, let them go with the adults." ”

Liu Han didn't speak, stood up and thought about it: "It's better to focus more on business, in two days, you will go to Jiankang, and I'll also take a look in Yangzhou, this Sheng Huai is cunning and cunning, I don't believe it, he has no flaws at all." ”

Saying that, Liu Han staggered away, Gu Heng did not come out, but turned around to the backyard and entered Zhu Niang's yard, and it happened that Mei Niang was also there.

Gu Heng told the two daughters that they would move to Liu Han's yard later, and then without waiting for the two girls to reply, they turned around and left, Mei Niang and Zhu Niang looked at each other, unable to hide the joy in their hearts.

Although the two daughters are Gu Shuo's concubines, Gu Shuo hasn't touched them for a long time before he died, there are many Gu families, concubines, singers, dancers, and girls, there are all kinds of things, there are dozens of people around Gu Shuo, and there are constantly young and delicate bodies joining, if it weren't for the ability to play the kite, I'm afraid the two daughters would have been sold or given away.

As soon as Gu Shuo died, his women became dazed, they didn't know what their fate would be in the future, although the sisters didn't say anything, they were secretly making up their minds, and now, the two women didn't know, but they really couldn't pull down that face to seduce Gu Heng.

This Liu Han suddenly appeared out of thin air, and Gu Heng was very flattering to him, although it was only a short night last night, the two girls already felt that this Liu Han was much more affectionate, and it was already their blessing to be able to keep up with him.
