The first poisonous scholar in Daxia, starting from the abdication of the prime minister

Ninghou Mansion.

"Mother! Mother, I want that beast to die, I want him to die..."

Gu Xiu was lying on a soft couch. The doctor was carefully applying medicine to him, but the doctor felt embarrassed when he heard his wailing and angry words.

Gu Heng looked at his good-for-nothing son and couldn't help but yell, "Shut up, what's the point of shouting about fighting and killing?"

"Mother, mother! I want to kill that beast Gu Jingzhi!"

doctor:"……"

He looked at Gu Xiu helplessly and said, "Young Master, you'd better hold off on your scolding for a while! You have no teeth left. If you keep getting so excited, the blood will just ooze out and you won't be able to stop it!"

It is said that the mansion of a noble is as deep as the sea, and the doctor finally saw it today.

Although I didn't see much filth in it, but shouting out such a thing of fighting and killing is too outrageous, isn't it?

I am old and can’t stand this kind of shock!

After hearing what the doctor said, Song Yu also scolded with an annoyed look on his face: "Shut up! Don't disturb the doctor while he's applying the medicine!"

Gu Xiu saw that his previous strategy seemed to be useless. Worried that the doctor could not cure the disfigurement, he immediately shut up.

The doctor was unhappy about this. He said with a fierce face, "Sir, your wound is inside. How can I apply medicine to you if you keep your mouth shut?"

Gu Xiu: "..."

After the bleeding finally stopped, the doctor hurriedly wrote out a prescription, gave a few instructions, picked up his medicine box and ran away.

For him, treating the illnesses of these children of the powerful and wealthy was truly a torment.

As soon as the doctor left, Gu Xiu couldn't help himself anymore. He looked at Song Yu and mumbled, "Food..."

Song Yu frowned, looked at Gu Heng and shouted, "My Lord..."

"That little bastard Gu Jingzhi is too presumptuous. Xiu'er is your son, and he..."

"Okay!"

Gu Heng waved his sleeves impatiently and scolded Song Yu, "You keep calling the child a little bastard and a little bastard all day long. You've corrupted the child!"

"..."

Song Yu suddenly reacted.

No matter how good Gu Jingzhi was, he seemed to be the son of a marquis. Based on his status, he had to call Song Yu "mother", although Gu Jingzhi never did.

But if Gu Jingzhi is a little beast, then they...

Song Yu quickly changed his tone and said, "My Lord, now that Gu Jingzhi has left the Marquisate, and he treated Xiu'er like this today, you must at least say something, right?"

"Give me something? What do you want me to say?"

Gu Heng glared at him, "This man has already left the palace, and His Majesty has even ordered the inner guards to revise his identity. What do you think I should say?"

"I told you all long ago that this person has left, and Xiu'er is now an official. Why are you still holding on to this?"

"I'm not saying anything bad about you, but you've been relying on your father's power to meddle in officialdom. You even dared to interfere in the appointment of the Ministry of Personnel. You even let Xiu'er show off in front of Gu Jingzhi. Who is Gu Jingzhi? He's a close minister to the emperor. If His Majesty knew about this, would you think our Gu family didn't die quickly enough?"

It’s not that Gu Heng is merciful, but what has this woman in his house done?

This woman is so fucking unscrupulous.

He was from a family of military generals, and the women in his mansion actually interfered in the affairs of the court. To put it mildly, this was abuse of power for personal gain, and to put it seriously, it was treason.

After all, the Ministry of Personnel exercises power on behalf of the emperor. Song Yu, a woman with no official position or title, actually dared to interfere in the court. Isn't this seeking death?

After being scolded like this, Song Yu was so scared that he dared not speak anymore.

To be honest, it was not her who did this, but Gu Xiu used Song Pu's name to hint to the officials of the Ministry of Personnel.

But she is Song Pu's daughter, so if it doesn't belong to her, it has to be her.

If the emperor knew she had done this, he would surely be furious.

Now I just hope that Emperor Xia won’t pay attention to such trivial matters!

But, could Emperor Xia not know about this? Obviously, it was impossible!

As a close minister of the emperor, Emperor Xia also intended to cultivate Gu Jingzhi. After all, in order to depose the prime minister and eradicate the aristocratic families... Emperor Xia had to use Gu Jingzhi as a knife!

With the care of Emperor Xia, the Internal Guard naturally paid more attention to him.

Just as Gu Jingzhi beat up Gu Xiu, the relevant information was placed on Emperor Xia's desk. When Emperor Xia saw these messed up things, his face suddenly turned frighteningly dark.

"Doesn't Gu Jingzhi know that he is now an official appointed by the imperial court, a sixth-rank official?"

Emperor Xia's tone was very bad. If the court officials fought in the street, it would be a disgrace to the court if it were made public.

If the common people knew about this, they would only think that the court was not strict in governing its subordinates, which led to court officials fighting in the streets. What's the difference between them and those low-class people?

"This……"

Tianshu hesitated for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, according to the internal guards, it seems that the third son of the Ning Marquis's Mansion said something that prompted Master Gu to take action!"

"Humph!"

Emperor Xia still looked unhappy: "No matter what you say, fighting in the street and disregarding the reputation of the imperial court is wrong!"

"you……"

Emperor Xia pointed at the eunuch and said, "Go! Call Gu Jingzhi here. He can't take this leave..."

……

Gu Jingzhi came to the imperial study again, feeling somewhat helpless.

It was a good day of rest, but first my best friend left, then I had a disagreement with Gu Xiu, and now the emperor is questioning me directly.

As soon as he entered the room, Emperor Xia, who was half lying on the couch, snorted coldly.

"Gu Jingzhi, do you admit your guilt?"

"..."

Gu Jingzhi's mouth twitched, but his body remained honest as he bowed directly, "Your Majesty, I have been involved in a street fight, which has damaged the reputation of the court and Your Majesty. I acknowledge my guilt!"

"Convicted?"

Emperor Xia slammed the memorial in his hand on the table and said in a slightly stern tone: "You knew it was a crime, but you still took action in the street. I see that you clearly don't know!"

"This……"

Gu Jingzhi hesitated for a moment, then complained, "Your Majesty, it's not that I'm disrespecting the court, but that Gu Xiu was too presumptuous. Although I took action, I was also upholding the court's laws, but..."

He raised his eyelids, as if wanting to see whether Emperor Xia was happy or angry, but Emperor Xia snorted coldly: "Just what just? You're hesitant all day long, you don't act like a subject!"

"..."

Ok!

You are the boss, so everything you said is correct. Gu Jingzhi also said, "Your Majesty, I met a good friend before the imperial examination. This time, Your Majesty appreciated me and granted me the status of a Jinshi. I was originally waiting for an appointment from the Ministry of Personnel in Beijing, but who would have thought that I would be assigned to Fufeng County in Ningzhou as the county magistrate!"

"Fufeng?"

Emperor Xia was slightly stunned. That was almost the worst county in the entire Daxia, without a doubt.

Logically speaking, it is impossible for a Jinshi to be assigned so badly!

But the Xia Emperor still said with a fierce face: "Although Fufeng County is desolate, it is still the territory of my Great Xia. Do you have any objections?"

"..."

How dare I?

The corners of Gu Jingzhi's mouth twitched.
