Chapter 1687: Gao Sheng
Chapter 1687: Gao Sheng
There can be no more chaos in Da Chu, otherwise even the real Dragon Emperor will not be able to control it.
"Your Majesty is considerate of the people, which is a blessing to Chu." Several cabinet elders said some compliments, but they looked down on Gu, who made the insect attractant.
Hehe, Clay Legs is Clay Legs. He had such a good thing in his hand and didn't want to make good use of it. He actually dedicated it to Emperor Jingyuan in the name of a soldier fighting against the enemy.
Think those soldiers would be grateful to her and sacrifice their lives for her man? Don't be stupid, everyone is looking after their own business on the battlefield, no one will help you!
Emperor Jingyuan was stingy and looked down on women. He would not give a reward to Gu just because of his face. This pretentious Gu would probably not get any benefits.
But they overlooked one point: although Emperor Jingyuan was stingy in giving a reward to a woman, he would not let go of an opportunity to take advantage of people.
Does Gus natal family have a shop? Emperor Jingyuan asked.
Ouyang Zhang said: "Your Majesty, the Gu family does have a shop. They use the beans grown at home to make tofu and seasonings. They sell them at low prices to the villagers in neighboring villages and let them pick and sell them to support their families."
They also talked about the Gu family taking the villagers to grow medicinal materials and sell them.
In the end, he also made it clear that he knew all this because Ouyang Hu told him. Ouyang Hu knew Gu Jinan and knew about the Gu family.
Emperor Jingyuan nodded after hearing this: "Yes, now that my family is rich, I can still think of the villagers. Gu's insect attractant has solved the danger of Xing'an Prefecture. These families who have made contributions to the people and the country deserve to be rewarded... pass on my will , the Gu family has merit, and the franchised Gu family stores do not need to pay taxes."
He then looked at the adults in the palace and said, "I will never forget those who have contributed to the imperial court!"
The elders want to scold you again. Well, I thought you had become more generous. It turns out that you are just using Gu to tell everyone that those who have meritorious service in the court will be rewarded.
On the contrary, Im afraid he will die miserably!
Not long after, Zhongshu Sheren wrote the imperial edict and read it out to Emperor Jingyuan.
After Emperor Jingyuan heard it correctly, he nodded and said, "Send it along with the previous imperial edict."
Several cabinet elders and ministers were filled with envy and jealousy after hearing the content of the imperial edict. If Emperor Jingyuan also gave them a decree exempting shops from paying taxes, they would not have to be so painful that they could not sleep!
Dai Shangshu said: "Your Majesty, we have found out clearly that the Qin and Gu families were victims of famine in the northwest. They originally wanted to flee back to their ancestral homeland, but encountered the chaos in Yongtai Mansion on the way and diverted to the south of the river. Anfu Anjia. That Qin Sanlang is..."
As early as half a month ago, Vice General Fang had arrived at the Ministry of War in the capital and reported to the Ministry of War that Ding Ge and the bandits from Jiuzhaigou in Bailang Mountain had swallowed up troops.
Since Qin Sanlang had made great contributions in this matter, the people from the Ministry of War naturally wanted to check his details, and also checked the details of Qin Gu Luotian and his family.
"The family of a military household in Xiaoqingou Village, Longshan Prefecture, my grandfather's name is Qin Longzi..." Emperor Jingyuan looked at the booklet presented by Dai Shangshu. It clearly listed the six generations of Qin Sanlang's family and his mother's clan. There was no trace of anything. A suspicious place.
As for the surname Qin, although it reminded him of his old friend, there were too many people named Qin in the entire Chu State. The chief **** who served him had the surname Qin, and some of the concubines in the harem also had the surname Qin.
Moreover, it had been so many years and the entire family had died. Emperor Jingyuan didn't think much about it for a while and just said: "He is indeed a very smart general. His family background is innocent. The Yue family also fled from famine. There is no big family in the family." Backeravailable.
Without a big backer, there are not too many interests involved, so he can use it with confidence.
After hearing this, Shangshu Dai asked tentatively: "Your Majesty, do you want to promote Qin Sanlang?"
Not only did he kill the Rong royal general, he also suppressed bandits on the road, his wife made a good medicine to save the country, and he was "available" to the emperor. I am afraid that the man named Qin will have to advance several levels in a row and become a vanguard general in one fell swoop. ah!
He should send a letter to his stupid nephew, reminding him to be nice to Qin Sanlang and give him gold, beauties and so on, so as to win him over.
But Dai Shangshu thinks too much.
Emperor Jingyuan said: "The military merits he has achieved should indeed be promoted. After the war is over, he will be granted the title of Thousand Households."
"Ah, Thousand Households?" Dai Shangshu was confused. He was deaf, so why did he only seal a Thousand Households?
Dai Shangshu risked his life and said: "Your Majesty, he is already a member of a hundred households, and he killed a general and was only promoted to a thousand households. Is it too small?"
Your Majesty, can you please stop being so instigating?
There are not many people who can win wars nowadays. It's hard to find a general, but you deliberately suppressed him and refused to promote him. How can he let people work hard to fight for the court?
"Young?" Emperor Jingyuan's eyes were cold and he sneered: "He is too young. If you give him a high position, will he be able to sit still?"
Young people are the most frivolous and easily deceived by others. He has to look again. If this mud-legged person becomes arrogant as soon as he has achieved great achievements, or is framed by jealousy and dies on the battlefield, then he is too stupid to be useful.
