Chapter 84-Obstructing the Wind, Yuchi Jingde
The next day.
The sky lit up.
Gu Hao was still a little nervous.
She slept very lightly the entire night, and the crowing of the rooster could be heard clearly at night.
"Calm down. It's not like I haven't participated before.”
Gu Hao sat up and recalled the scene when he had just transmigrated. He couldn't help but be amused.
"A line of wild geese flying south, two roast ducks heading north…That's right, isn't that pretty good?”
After calming down, Gu Hao put on his official robe and gently opened the door.
After she came out, she gently closed the door.
The sky was not very bright, and the air was filled with a light fog.
Gu Hao casually glanced around and saw a figure busy in the kitchen. A wisp of green smoke rose above the kitchen, and it looked extremely thick against the light fog.
"Better than Gail. Bagado was shorter. She was Zhang Qian.”
Gu Hao thought to himself.
With the light fog obstructing him, he couldn't see clearly. He could only judge from his figure.
After looking for a while, he heard the sound of a door opening behind him.
Gu Hao moved and hid behind a pillar in the corridor.
He continued to observe silently.
Gail with a black veil on her head. Bagado walked out and glanced at Gu Hao's room.
"What a blessed master."
Bigail. Bagatuo whispered in Cheshi language.
Then, she looked at the kitchen and saw Zhang Qianshi busy, so she quickly walked over.
Then…
Gu Hao saw his maid and Zhang Shenzhi's mother working together to prepare breakfast for him.
"If you only look at this scene and don't think about the reason behind it, it's quite touching.”
Gu Hao sighed in a low voice.
He realized that at this moment, he was so calm that he was almost indifferent.
Gail Bagado served him with all her heart so that she could learn the advanced technology of the Great Tang from him.
Zhang Qian-shi woke up early in the morning to prepare breakfast for him, hoping that he could rescue Zhang Shenzhi.
After watching for a while, Gu Hao quietly returned to his room, took off his official robe, and lay on the bed again.
Thinking about life…
"Gail. Bagado did this for her country, Cheshi. For the Cheshi Kingdom, she should be able to give up everything.”
"Zhang Qian-shi did this for her son, Zhang Shenzhi. Similarly, for her son, she was willing to give up everything.”
Gu Hao suddenly understood.
Some things had nothing to do with benefits.
"In this world, who would give up everything for me? Who am I willing to give up everything for?”
Gu Hao thought for a moment, and a figure appeared in his mind.
Princess Li Lizhi of Changle.
Then, he shook his head.
He wasn't sure if Li Lizhi was willing to give up everything for him.
He was certain that he was not willing to give up everything for Li Lizhi.
For example, he was unwilling to give up on forcing Li Shiming.
After letting his imagination run wild for a while, a series of knocks came from outside the room.
"You're quite obedient."
Gu Hao smiled.
He had just said yesterday that he would let Gail…Bakado would knock on the door when she came in in the future, and she did so today.
However, Gu Hao pretended to be asleep and did not respond.
Gail, who was standing outside the door. Bagado blinked, gently pushed open the door, and walked in with the basin.
After placing the basin on the wooden shelf, Gail. Bagado slowly came to the bed as usual and sat beside it.
He first sized up Gu Hao's face, then subconsciously looked at the blanket on Gu Hao's body.
"Eh?" Looking at the flat bedding, Gail. Bagado was surprised.
Gu Hao, who was pretending to be asleep, narrowed his eyes and noticed Gail. Bagado was looking at the quilt covering her body, and her face twitched.
"Why didn't you knock again?" Gu Hao said in a low voice.
Gail Bakaduo was shocked and quickly stood up. She looked at Gu Hao innocently and said,""I knocked, but you didn't respond, Master.”
"Staying in the antique shop every day is a little boring, right?”
Gu Hao was busy with Gail. Bagado asked casually as she put on her robe, socks, and boots.
"Being able to serve Master every day, Bagatore is very fulfilling and not boring.”Gail Bagado said with a smile.
"Are you sure?" Gu Hao squinted.
Gail Bagado laughed dryly and said in a low voice,""It's a little boring."
" Hmph!" Gu Hao snorted and said," Do you still remember the question I gave you in Honglu Guest House?"”
Gail "One plus two, three, four, all the way to a hundred…" Bagado pondered for a moment and said.
"Not bad, this is the question." Gu Hao nodded and said," There's a simple algorithm for this question. You can try to find it when you're bored.”
"A simple algorithm?" Gail Bagado blinked.
"Find that algorithm and I'll teach you some special knowledge.”Gu Hao said.
" Special knowledge?"
Gail Bagado's heart was pounding.
………
After dinner, Gu Hao rode in Old Chen's luxurious carriage to the entrance of the imperial city.
Along the way, Gu Hao nodded at some unfamiliar officials.
He didn't know many people, but there were many who knew him.
He had spent some time in the Imperial City, so he roughly understood some of the rules of the morning meeting.
The lower officials came first, and the higher officials came later.
The last to appear was naturally the official boss, Li Er.
Arriving outside the Gate of Heaven Influence of Taiji Palace, Gu Hao was slightly worried.
Before entering the Gate of Heaven Influence, one had to first…verify their identity.
It was somewhat similar to passing the security check in the future.
When he came to Gu Hao, he suddenly had an idea. Could it be that he was not summoned at all?
As soon as this thought appeared in his mind, he saw the Golden Guard in charge of verifying his identity shoot him a glance and say,"Honorary Scholar of Hongwen Hall, Gu Hao, enter.”
"You know me?"
Gu Hao raised his eyebrows slightly and quickly stepped into Taiji Palace.
"Hey, why are you here?”
As they approached the Town Hall, a suspicious voice came from behind Gu Hao.
"Zhang Liang?" Gu Hao raised his eyebrows.
He turned around and looked at Zhang Liang with a hesitant expression. He cupped his hands and said,"I'm Gu Hao. May I know who you are?”
" You…" Zhang Liang was about to glare when he remembered what happened yesterday morning. He immediately snorted and said," You don't even know me. It seems that your reputation as the top scholar is not true."”
"Haha, Little Liang, don't you feel ashamed to say that the name of the top scholar doesn't match?”Cheng Yaojin's laughter came from behind.
"What's wrong with the farmers?" Zhang Liang retorted. It's better than a bandit like you, right?”
"I'm a hero in the forest!" Cheng Yaojin laughed.
"Greetings, General Cheng.”
Gu Hao cupped his hands.
"Could it be that these three axes betrayed me?”
Gu Hao cursed.
Cheng Yaojin looked at Gu Hao and nodded with a smile.""It seems that Your Majesty is very well-informed.”
Gu Hao's heart stirred.
He understood that Cheng Yaojin was saying that he was innocent, but he was also reminding Gu Hao that His Majesty might already know about the plan of the exhibition.
"Looks like it's not him."
Gu Hao thought to himself.
A High Duke wouldn't lie to a junior.
"What news?"
Zhang Liang asked anxiously.
Your Majesty, do you know that Zhang Shenzhi is my son?
As Cheng Yaojin arrived, some people gathered around Gu Hao.
Most of them were generals, but there were also some civil officials.
What they had in common was that each of them had a wooden board that was two feet six inches long and three inches wide.
Gu Hao didn't. His rank wasn't enough to have a board.
"What secret information did you get? Tell everyone about it." Someone started to jeer.
The rest of the people also smiled and urged Cheng Yaojin.
"Do you want to know?" Cheng Yaojin smiled and pointed at Gu Hao." Didn't you see the top scholar?" Do you think it's normal for the top scholar to appear here?”
Everyone looked at Gu Hao.
"His Majesty sent me here, but he didn't say why." Gu Hao's eyelids twitched.”
"Brat, you're not being particular. Everyone's looking at you. Who doesn't know about your relationship with Prince Changle?”Cheng Yaojin laughed.
Gu Hao's face turned red. He was cursing Cheng Yaojin's eighteen generations of ancestors in his heart.
Everyone was enlightened and immediately revealed a similar smile.
It was no longer a secret among the ministers that Princess Changle would go to Hongwen Hall every day.
"What are you all doing here? Hurry up and go in!"
At this time, Qin Qiong's voice sounded from behind everyone.
The crowd dispersed and walked into the Town Hall.
Gu Hao heaved a sigh of relief. He turned around and cupped his hands at Qin Qiong."Greetings, General Qin."
"Why are you here?" Qin Qiong was puzzled.
Before Gu Hao could answer, Cheng Yaojin chuckled and said,""Hehe, we'll know later."
Cheng Yaojin slipped into the Town Hall, leaving Gu Hao alone to face Qin Qiong.
"Let's go in first." Qin Qiong said.
"Alright."
Gu Hao heaved a sigh of relief.
He was afraid that Qin Qiong would pursue the matter.
After entering the Town Hall, Gu Hao stood in the last row.
As time went by, the Town Hall was gradually full.
At a certain moment, a high-pitched eunuch's voice rang out,"
"Your Majesty has arrived. All the officials welcome you."
Li Shiming walked into the Town Hall from the side door in the deepest part of the Town Hall, and all the officials bowed to welcome him.
After Li Shimin sat on the throne, he smiled and said,"All my beloved ministers, please forgive me."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." The officials shouted in unison.
After the simple greeting ceremony ended, the court meeting officially began.
Gu Hao stood at the back and looked ahead. He realized that all he could see were heads.
He could clearly hear the officials discussing political affairs in front of him. Gu Hao suspected that this hall might be secretly equipped with some kind of echo device.
After listening for a while, Gu Hao realized that the Great Tang was not peaceful.
There were droughts in Shandong, floods in Jiangnan, rebellions in Youzhou, and corrupt officials in Guanzhong…
In short, the things that could be discussed in court were basically true national affairs.
As Gu Hao listened, he suddenly felt that the Great Tang was not as prosperous as he had imagined.
After they finished discussing these important matters, Gu Hao heard the eunuch's high-pitched voice again."
"Do you have anything to report? Retreat without a reason."
The ministers began to whisper among themselves.
Not long after, a middle-aged official stepped forward and said in a clear voice," I want to check on Yuchi Gong. He was drunk and reckless last night. Not only did he offend the public, but he also broke the curfew and beat up the night patrol lieutenant…"
"Drunken Fruit?" Gu Hao was stunned.
Was it that explosive?
"You're talking nonsense. I wasn't drunk last night!”Yuchi Gong, who was standing in front of the generals, stomped his feet in anger.
"Hmph, ask those people who drank with you yesterday.”The middle-aged official glanced at Yuchi Gong and said disdainfully.
"Cough cough, Old Hei, you were indeed drunk last night, but I can prove that you were wearing clothes when you ran out of my residence.”Cheng Yaojin coughed and said.
Li Shiming, who was sitting on the dragon throne, was speechless.
When Yuchi Gong was drunk, he often liked to run naked. This was no secret in Chang 'an.
During the last bonfire banquet, he was a little worried that Yuchi Gong would go crazy from alcohol.
Fortunately, the wine brewed by Gu Hao was strong enough, and Yuchi Gong was knocked out.
"Enough. We can discuss this matter later." Li Shi Min said coldly.
He didn't want to know what happened after Yuchi Gong ran away.
The officials gradually quieted down. Another official stepped forward and said in a clear voice,"I have something to report.
I want to participate in the process of biting gold. Last night, I slaughtered cattle.”
"Nonsense, my cow was killed by accident. I didn't kill it!”Cheng Yaojin shouted.
He didn't take it seriously at all.
There were too many people who were against him.
Especially since he had sent a cow leg to the palace.
Li Shi Min's face darkened as he said with a fake smile,"This matter can be discussed later. Does any of you have anything else to participate in?”
“………”
Then, Gu Hao saw a harmonious scene.
The officials with the Imperial Censorate as the center started to participate in the discussion with the high officials. The minister who was being questioned gave an extremely perfunctory explanation.
Li Er's attitude was also very helpless. If he really couldn't stand it, then he would be fined his salary.
People like Yuchi Gong and Cheng Yaojin, who were involved in the investigation, had long lost their salaries.
"It's really lively."
Gu Hao thought to himself.
He could faintly feel Li Shiming's helplessness and the probing of these nobles and ministers.
"You're all smart people."
Gu Hao sighed.
If these founding heroes did not make any mistakes and accumulated more and more contributions, Li Er would probably not be too happy.
And now, the founding ministers were having a good time making mistakes, the censors were having a good time, and Li Er was relieved…
It was the most harmonious scene in the Great Tang.
Naturally, if there were any officials who went overboard, Li Er would not be stingy with the knife in his hand.
The imperial censors gradually quieted down. Li Er's gaze shifted from his son, Li Chengqian, to Gu Hao's head at the back of the hall.
The voices in the hall gradually died down. Just when the officials thought that the court session was about to end, Crown Prince Li Chengqian, who was standing at the front, stepped forward and said in a clear voice,
"Your son has something to report."
Hearing this, all the ministers were instantly in high spirits.
For a moment, the entire Town Hall was so quiet that even a pin drop could be heard.
"He's here."
Li Shimin, Gu Hao, Du Ruhui, and Cheng Yaojin all thought so.
