Chapter 36 The mother-in-law arrives, the evil king and his people
"Hehe, son-in-law, I want you to do me a favor!"
Accompanied by a chuckle, a figure suddenly formed outside Gu Xiao's study. The light and shadow seemed to be absorbed by this graceful figure, revealing the other party's further magical cultivation.
Gu Xiao didn't move his eyebrows, because the study was forbidden, so he could use it to connect with the people in the Demon Sect.
Having said that, if it weren't for his order to release the water, even the queen Zhu Yuyan would not be able to come here quietly.
Even though time flies, Zhu Yuyan has not left many traces of time.
She did not step into the study, but her beautiful eyes looked at Gu Xiao: "Son-in-law, I am here this time to ask you to help me!"
"well……"
Gu Xiao sighed, "Did my mother-in-law come to ask me for help?"
Zhu Yuyan said: "My daughter has married you, but you are reluctant to help me for a long time. It really makes my family very anxious!"
"My mother-in-law's words really make the son-in-law unable to refute!"
Gu Xiao nodded and said, "When the son-in-law packs his bags, he will do something within three days!"
But he knew in his heart that Zhu Yuyan was truly tempted to kill Shi Zhixuan at this time!
Before, Shi Zhixuan broke Zhu Yuyan's magic skills and turned around and left with mercy. It can be said that it was for the great cause of unification of the Holy Sect, but this time he fell in love with Bi Xiuxin, he could no longer argue.
This is an unparalleled blow to a proud daughter like Zhu Yuyan.
Zhu Yuyan, who received Gu Xiao's affirmative answer, left satisfied.
Gu Xiao touched his chin and knew his plans for the Yingui School clearly.
Of course he was not going to let Shi Zhixuan be killed like this.
Because he had to ensure that it was Yang Guang, not his eldest son, Yang Yong, who was promoted to the Sui Dynasty.
Speaking of Yang Yong, this is also a character. Although he is luxurious and beautiful, he is generous, gentle and straightforward, good at poetry and is more studious, and he is a good monarch.
If he was really allowed to take office, and to govern inaction and rest with the people, he might be able to prolong the life of the Sui Dynasty.
But of course Gu Xiao couldn't let him do this!
What's more, Shi Zhixuan is also a talent who can help the world.
A few years ago, Pei Ju and Changsun Sheng used a plan to split the Turks, allowing the Turks to split into the Eastern Turks and the Western Turks, greatly reducing the threat to the Central Plains by the Turks.
Originally, the Turks were strong, and Princess Dayi, the wife of Dulan Khan, was a daughter of the Northern Zhou royal family, so she often invaded the border. In the 13th year of Kaihuang, Princess Dayi had an affair with her followers and was exposed by Changsun Sheng. Pei Ju took the opportunity to ask for an envoy to the Turks and lobby Dulan Khan to let him kill Princess Dayi. Later, Princess Dayi was indeed killed.
Pei Ju learned the way of being erratic. Whether it was splitting the Turks or later managing the Western Regions, his talents could be seen.
Twenty years later, Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling, two fools, were fooled by others, and then they decided that Pei Ju was a big devil and wanted to kill each other.
But I don’t understand that whether it is splitting the Turks or managing the Western Regions, it is a great benefit to the people of the Central Plains. Of course, the Han people should stand on the standpoint of the Han people, and they don’t even understand such a simple principle as the hero and my enemy. In politics, they can only be described as idiots.
Pei Ju is a double-edged sword.
If it is used well, it must be a famous figure of the generation; but if it is not used well, it will be a bomb!
Gu Xiao asked himself that he had no need to kill Shi Zhixuan because he still had the value of existence.
...
In the evening, Pei Ju's mansion.
In the 19th year of Kaihuang, Dulan Khan joined forces with Datou Khan and defeated Qimin Khan. Qimin Khan went south to surrender to the Sui Dynasty. Emperor Wen of Sui appointed Taiping Duke Shi Wansui as the chief of the army, Pei Ju was the chief of the army, sent troops to Dingxiang Road, and took the opportunity to attack the Turks. In December of the same year, Dulan Khan was killed by his subordinates, and Datou Khan became independent.
In the 20th year of Kaihuang, Shi Wansui defeated Datou Khan, but was unjustly killed by Emperor Wen of Sui after returning to the court. Pei Ju's achievements were not recorded, and later he was ordered to comfort Qimin Khan and promoted to the Left Chief of the Shangshu.
Nowadays, Pei Ju's status in the court is already very high, and he is still above Gu Xiaoguo Gu.
But compared to Gu Xiao, Pei Ju is much more low-key.
Overall, the houses in Daxing City are in a pattern of noble in the north and low in the south. The closer they are to the Taiji Palace in the imperial city, the more expensive the land price is. The land in several markets such as Yanshou, Guangde, Pingkang, Xuanyang, Taiping, Guanglu, Xingdao, and Wuben are all first-class and expensive, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a matter of gold and inch of land. And those who can live in these markets are all the most powerful officials and nobles in the court.
Pei Ju was one of the important officials who was trusted and trusted by Emperor Yang Jian. With his noble status, he was definitely qualified to occupy a place in this truly wealthy circle. Although Pei Ju was honest and never received bribes from others except for the salary of the court. However, the Pei family in Hedong was also a famous family in the world. Even if they wanted to buy a luxury mansion in Daxing City, it would be no problem. However, Pei Ju did not mingle with these nobles, but bought a small courtyard in the Datongfang area far away from the imperial city and the cheap land price.
The people living in Datongfang are all ordinary people. Don’t say that there are no dignitaries nearby, and even the rich businessmen who are a little rich don’t want to live here. However, for many years, Pei Ju has always been at ease with this and has no intention of moving to another place. Even if someone wants to curry favor with him and buy another mansion elsewhere to give him a gift, he politely declined. Emperor Yang Jian has always been simple, so he admires Pei Ju’s style very much and has praised him in public many times. But who can imagine that the biggest reason why Pei Ju did this is not to be honest and self-righteous, but to... her!
Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!
The door knocker was pulled, and a crisp knock sounded.
After a while, a crisp sound of footsteps sounded in the yard, and then a man from the old house opened the door.
"General Yuwen, you are..." Seeing Gu Xiao, the servant's eyes lit up and asked.
Gu Xiao said: "Report to Lord Pei, Yuwen Tuo is here to visit."
"Okay, wait a moment." The servant agreed, then turned around and ran in and spread it.
"Yuwentuo?" Inside the residence, Pei Ju was originally practicing calligraphy. He was full of ink brushes with one hand, and the ink was filled with ink. A large character made people sigh at the wonderful calligraphy after just a few glances. After hearing the news from the servant, Pei Ju couldn't help but frown.
He doesn't like Yuwen Tuo because in front of this kid, he always feels like his secrets are seen through.
He even doubted whether nothing in this world could hide from his Yin and Yang pupils!
But if you don’t like it, since you are here, there is no reason to stay away from it.
"Please come in." Pei Ju ordered.
"yes."
Soon, Gu Xiao met Pei Ju in Pei Ju's study!
Chapter completed!
