Leaving Gu's house step by step, after walking far away, the envoy of Goguryeo sat on the ground weakly leaning on a tree, thinking about the back and forth, it seems that the price Gu Qing wants is not very big, but Gu Qing's eyes are too vicious He took a fancy to Liaodong City at a glance, besides himself, there are a few courtiers around the King of Goguryeo who are interested in him. If he is not by the side of King Goguryeo, who will assist his king.
Gu Qing had this purpose from the very beginning, just wanting to hold Goguryeo firmly in his own hands. It is not that he does not know the purpose of the bank in Chang'an. The bank is a place to store money, and it is the same for Datang. Datang's own people naturally have no problem.
But for Goguryeo, once the people of Goguryeo start to deposit money in the bank built in Liaodong City, the money of the whole Goguryeo will be in the hands of the bank, with one hand holding the gate of Liaodong City, Goguryeo, and the other hand holding Goguryeo As long as he is on Gu Qing's side, will the King of Goguryeo still trust him from now on?
Will Goguryeo become Datang's puppet from now on? Thinking of this, thinking of Gu Qing's voice, thinking of Gu Qing's smile, he can't help but feel chills all over his body, each of the three conditions is the key point.
"Why does Tang Dynasty have a figure like Gu Qing?" He asked himself from the heart.
Back at his residence in Chang'an, he said to his side: "Go to the academy and take Wang's younger brother back, and leave me alone."
"Won't the national teacher go back with us?" The Goguryeo envoy who also came to Tang Dynasty asked doubtfully.
"I'll write a letter to the king." He sat down with a brush and began to write, writing the conversation between himself and Gu Qing, and wrote down the two conversations without missing a word. Gu Qing is a person who is good at analyzing pros and cons, and is also a very A person who can read people's hearts, he knows that Goguryeo wants something from him, and he will not just give Goguryeo benefits, just like Wang himself said that he would rather offend the Tang emperor than Gu Qing.
This is the case now, and it will be the same in the future. What Goguryeo needs now is to cultivate itself, to raise its own national strength, and to send more and more children from Goguryeo to the Tang Academy to learn the knowledge here. Now the knowledge of the Tang Dynasty is Goguryeo. No, children must always learn from adults as they grow up, and the same is true for Goguryeo today. Goguryeo must always learn from Datang, learn from Datang's governance, and learn from Datang's knowledge.
Now Goguryeo is just a child to Datang. In the future, we will have more contacts with Datang’s maritime trade, so that Goguryeo can connect with Datang in more aspects as soon as possible. By learning from Datang, Goguryeo will become stronger. The foundation, everything agrees with Datang. Facing Datang, today’s Goguryeo is too weak and too weak. Datang wants to slaughter Goguryeo, but it is as simple as Datang wants to conquer a county. Now Datang is preparing for the Western Expedition , Even if it is the Western Expedition to Goguryeo, don't think that you can take advantage of it.
The Gu family will always live in Chang'an. As long as the Gu family is alive, they will never underestimate Datang. As long as the Gu family is alive, they must always be on guard against Goguryeo.
A letter was written late at night, and he handed the letter to the Goguryeo envoy beside him and said: "Go and pick up the king's younger brother overnight, please hand this letter to the king, all I can do is this Please tell the king, let him cherish it."
Gu Village
Li Er listened to Wang Qin's report, Goguryeo's envoys took away the Goguryeo king's younger brother overnight, and Gu Qing also left an envoy who came to Datang this time to lead the team.
"That is said to be the national teacher of Goguryeo. All the envoys of Goguryeo have left, but he is the only one who stayed. It seems that he has reached some kind of agreement with Gu Qing." Wang Qin whispered to Li Er .

Chapter 51
"In the future, you don't need to tell me about this kind of thing." Li Er made tea with freshly boiled hot water, handed Wang Qin a cup and said, "This is the new tea sent by Gu Qing this year, try it and see how it tastes ?”
Wang Qin took the teacup respectfully, took a sip and said, "It's a bit harsh, maybe the old slave doesn't know how to taste tea."
Li Er said with a smile: "At first, I felt the same way when I drank this kind of tea. At that time, I thought this kind of tea was not good to drink, but it was very good for removing oil, and it became a habit after drinking it. "
"I don't know how Master Gu came up with this kind of use for tea." Wang Qin said with a smile.
"A lot of ideas, many people have never seen before, but to Gu Qing, they seem to be commonplace, as if in his eyes, we are the special case." Li Er also took a sip, and there was another drizzle outside the window. Rain, listening to the sound of rain, my mind can't help but calm down.
"It is said that the Department of Maritime Trade is going to build an iron ship recently. This kind of thing is really unheard of. How can iron float on water?" Wang Qin said with a smile.
Li Er shook his head and said with a smile: "Perhaps it is natural for Gu Qing, how is the marriage arrangement of the young slave?"
Speaking of this, Wang Qin said to Li Er: "Because of the situation in the Western War, this matter has been put on hold for the time being. The court and the Central Committee must do their best to deal with this Western Expedition, and they must also repair the Hall of Martial Virtue."
"It's better to slow down." Li Er nodded slightly, "Repair the Wude Hall? Why do you suddenly think of repairing it?"
Wang Qin replied, "It is said that it was Yan Lide who spoke, and Gu Qing and Yan Lide also had a conversation in the village before."
After listening, Li Er quietly watched the drizzle outside the window.
Li Junxian came to report and said: "Your Majesty, Gu Qing asks to see you."
"Let him in." Li Er said.
Holding an oil-paper umbrella, Gu Qing walked in quickly, and said to Li Junxian, "General Li, we are so familiar, do we need to report it?"
Li Junxian didn't think so and said: "Rules are rules, favors are favors."
Hearing their voices, Li Er sat in the room and said, "Come in."
Patting the rainwater that fell on the clothes, Gu Qing walked into the house with a bag of medicinal materials, saw Li Er who was dressed lazily and said, "Old man, I'm here to see you."
"Sit down." Li Er said with a smile.
Putting a bag of medicinal herbs in front of Li Er, Gu Qing sat by the stove feeling the warmth and said, "This is the medicinal herb that Master has prepared recently. It is said that the weather is getting warmer, but the moisture accumulated in the body during the winter must be removed. There are also some medicinal materials for invigorating qi, don’t take it seriously when it’s warm and cold, people are most likely to get sick when the seasons change.”
Li Er nodded and let Wang Qin take the medicine.
Gu Qing also looked at Li Er, Li Er's temples were already grey, and some gray hair could no longer be hidden.
Noticing Gu Qing's gaze, Li Er said, "I'm old, aren't I?"
"Not old." Gu Qing smiled and picked up the tea and made himself a cup of hot tea.
"People will age, and you will be like me one day." Li Er said in a low voice: "At the beginning, I saw you as a kid, but now you have stubble and a face that looks like a lot. I have gained some perseverance, but the eyes are still exactly the same as before."
"What do I look like in my eyes?" After Gu Qing finished speaking, he took out a pot of wine and poured it for Li Er.
"There is always some pity in the eyes." Li Er seemed to be smiling wryly when he said this.
"Try this wine, I gave a jar to Cheng's family, but Li Xiaogong took one away." Gu Qing put the wine bottle filled with wine in front of Li Er.
After taking a breath, Li Er said aftertaste: "I'm getting older, but I feel that there are fewer and fewer people around me. Back then, Cheng Yaojin, Niu Jinda, Yu Chigong, and Fang Xuanlingzhen would call them up from time to time. Go hunting together, drink together, look at the present."
"Yeah, they are already a bunch of old guys." Gu Qing looked at the rain outside the window, "Old guys all have their own families and their own children, and the older they get, the more they want to be with their family members , Father-in-law, do you think so?"
"Yes." Li Er nodded slightly, "They have been with me for most of my life, and for the rest of my life, they should also be with their relatives."
"If Your Majesty finds it boring, you can come to my house for a stroll." Gu Qing smiled and said to Li Er: "My house is quite lively, besides, Princess Jinyang and His Royal Highness King Jin are at my house now."
"No, I'm already very satisfied if they can come to see me."
"Afraid of disturbing you." Gu Qing whispered to Li Er.
Glancing at Gu Qing and Li Er fell silent.
After pouring another glass of wine for Li Er, Gu Qing continued: "Wei Wang Li Tai has become more and more proficient in many things in the academy recently, and now the Mo family's children can also come to the academy to study. In the future, the academy will annex the Eight Great Masters."
"There is also King Li Zhi of Jin. That kid is also the busiest right now. He said that he is preparing to get married. Fortunately, there are many things in the court that cannot be separated from him. Otherwise, I am afraid that he will not even have the time to get married. Li Yi's mansion has been handed over to the King of Jin, and these two guys are capable of handling things, and the King of Jin doesn't have any burdens to use them, otherwise Shangguanyi is at least one of the core figures in the court, and it is not a solution to turn both ends."
"The Department of Maritime Trade is the most important thing. Next, we must seize the time to open up the South China Sea. Recently, the King of Jin will give a lot of orders to Yan Liben in the East China Sea." Gu Qing continued: "There is also Princess Jinyang. Very good talent, I heard from Fatty that Princess Jinyang plans to set up a new name in the academy recently, called the School of Medicine, and it will also recruit female students, which will also open a door for women to enter the academy in the future, which is also very important for the academy step."
"The fat man quite likes the idea of the little one." Gu Qing thought for a while and then said: "There is also His Highness Wu Wang, and now His Highness Wu Wang has also begun to specialize in Nanzhao rice seeds in addition to opening up the waterways in the Jiangdong area. The yield of planting is very good, and once it is successful, it will increase the grain in the Central Plains.”
Listening to Gu Qing's words, Wang Qin noticed that Li Er listened very attentively. As for Li Chengqian and Gu Qing, he didn't mention it from the beginning to the end. However, His Majesty still sees all the changes in the court today, so it's okay not to mention it.
Empress Changsun came step by step, saw Gu Qing and said, "Gu Qing, are you here?"
"I'll come and see you." Gu Qing said with a smile, noticing the person behind Empress Changsun. This person looks very different from someone who lived here before. After thinking for a while, he can roughly guess who it is. "Presumably this is..."
"I've seen Master Gu."
