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

Chapter 241: Chatting about Ningzhou's future, the prince's thoughts...

Gu Jingzhi’s second sister-in-law Qin Biyi...was also the daughter of a scholar in her early years. Later, she went to the mountains because of a disaster. She had a pretty face but a simple character.

Her husband was about to be exiled to the frontier. Although she was extremely worried, she did not show it on her face. Instead, she took Gu Yunzhi's hand and said, "Sister, my husband is going out to fight. Although he is serving a sentence, he is also going to revitalize the family!"

"Although this journey is dangerous, we should support him! Besides, Third Uncle has already arranged everything, and he will return one day!"

Upon hearing this, Gu Yunzhi was about to cry and said, "I know why my second brother left. It's just that our Gu family has declined to this point because of our uselessness. Now all the sins fall on my second brother. As the eldest sister, I..."

"Big sister! Our Gu family has had a very difficult time since the passing of our parents, grandfather, and uncles! But now hope is right before our eyes, so don't be so pessimistic!"

The second sister-in-law still forced a smile and said, "It's fine for us to be parents! But the children can't bear the status of criminal slaves. One day, the sons of the Gu family will still step onto the battlefield, or pass the imperial examination!"

"My husband has ambitions, and we should support him. Crying like this will only make him uneasy!"

When Gu Yunzhi heard this, she couldn't bear it anymore. She covered her mouth and left her seat!

When Gu Jingzhi and his wife saw this, they also stood up. They took the children out of the house, leaving the space for Gu Huanzhi and his wife.

Seeing that his eldest sister and three brothers had left, Gu Huanzhi looked at his wife and felt something stuck in his throat.

"Yier..."

Gu Huanzhi called out softly.

Qin Biyi took her husband's hand and said with a smile, "Don't worry, my dear. I will take good care of the two children at home. I will wait for you to ride back one day. There will always be a home for you!"

"I'm sorry for you, but the battlefield is dangerous, I..."

"No need to say more, my husband!"

Qin Biyi smiled and said, "If my husband returns one day, I will welcome him in red attire! If he dies... I will lead the way in plain clothes..."

"do not talk……"

Gu Huanzhi hugged his wife tightly and said firmly, "Don't worry, I will definitely come back alive from this trip. I will never let my wife, children, and the elders of the Gu family down!"

……

As a master of the realm of transformation, Gu Jingzhi listened to the conversation in the room in his heart and couldn't help but sigh softly.

At this moment, he accepted his second brother from the bottom of his heart.

Chen Yu stood aside, holding Gu Jingzhi's hand tightly, and said: "Husband, second brother and second sister-in-law... how enviable!"

Gu Jingzhi nodded silently, but tightened his grip on Chen Yu's hand!

The yard was quiet. Gu Yunzhi took the children back to the house, but the prince came to Gu Jingzhi's yard.

Looking at the prince carrying wine and meat, Gu Jingzhi also found it a little funny. After two months of working in the fields, the nobility in him became much more restrained and down-to-earth.

He was accompanied by the old man of the Qiao family and the Qiao brothers.

Seeing Gu Jingzhi and his wife, the prince immediately laughed and said, "Master Gu, why are you chatting with your wife in the courtyard instead of staying at home to reunite with your family?"

"Uh……"

Gu Jingzhi smiled bitterly, then asked, "Why are you all here today?"

"Hi!"

The old man of the Qiao family smiled and said, "The busy farming season is over now. I thought you, Master Gu, have taught us a lot these days, so I bought some wine and food to reward you!"

"Yes! I heard that the second brother of the Gu family is going to the northwest, so I came here specially to see him off. Tonight will be his farewell party!"

To be honest, Gu Huanzhi's attitude in going to the fields for the past two months has already impressed the prince and the Qiao family. Although Gu Huanzhi is a criminal, his actions are understandable from a human perspective.

Gu Jingzhi did not reveal the relationship between Jin Lehuang and Lianyunzhai, otherwise he would be labeled as Jin Lehuang's accomplice!

Therefore, even though Gu Huanzhi was a bandit leader before, the prince and his companions did not look down on him.

After all, Gu Yunzhi and Gu Huanzhi had no choice but to become bandits. They were righteous bandits, and what they did was in line with human nature and justice, but...

This emotion and law cannot be generalized.

Gu Jingzhi's actions also made them sincerely admire him. You know, there are only two brothers left in the Ningzhou Gu family now, and the younger one is not yet grown up, but Gu Jingzhi can remain impartial. They think they can't do such a thing!

Gu Jingzhi glanced at Chen Yu, who nodded slightly, then bowed to the prince and his companions, then turned and went back to the inner room.

Several men put the food on the table and sat down directly in the yard.

After two months of working in the fields, the prince's hands had become much rougher. After the wine and meat were laid out, the prince smiled and asked, "Where's the second brother of the Gu family? Why hasn't he come out yet?"

Gu Jingzhi smiled faintly, then pointed into the house. Seeing this, the others immediately smiled knowingly.

"Then let's eat and drink first, haha..."

Old Master Qiao laughed heartily and drank a bowl of wine, then sighed softly: "I am over fifty years old and have fought in wars for decades, but when you count the days, I have only lived a comfortable life in the past two months. Although I have been working in the fields all day long, I don't feel tired at all!"

At the end of his speech, he sighed.

The kingdom was conquered, but life became increasingly restrictive. As the prince's father-in-law, he was the most prominent and powerful person in the court. Unfortunately...

There were too many people eyeing the prince before, and now he has been stripped of his title, but he lives a peaceful life now.

After hearing this, the prince was also a little sad, as if he was thinking of those days in the capital.

Gu Jingzhi simply smiled faintly as he poured them some wine, saying, "This is a rare opportunity, so let's just enjoy life in the fields. Without the infighting of the court, we can still do something practical for the people, which will make our official lives worthwhile!"

"That's true, but Jingzhi...if the country falls into the hands of my second and third brothers, it will be difficult for you to do anything good for the world in the future!"

The prince's words immediately attracted everyone's attention. They thought about it and nodded silently.

Gu Jingzhi knew that he wanted to ask about Jin Lehuang, so he said, "Your Highness, this matter cannot be rushed. The situation in the capital is currently in turmoil, and His Majesty is determined to reform the new policy, which will affect the interests of the aristocratic families. His Majesty may have placed you in Ningzhou to protect you!"

"Your Majesty knows better than anyone what happened after Your Highness came to Ningzhou! Whether we are ministers or kings, we hold the power of the world in our hands. If we don't make decisions for the people of the world, even if Your Highness's stigma is cleared, Your Majesty will surely be disappointed!"

"Let the second and third brothers fight for now. When His Highness returns, everything will be clear!"

Upon hearing this, Old Master Qiao nodded and said, "As an emperor, you should be the emperor of the whole world, not just the emperor of a clan or a family. Your Highness needs to be patient and do the things you are doing well. His Majesty will surely be pleased to see this!"

"Indeed!"

Gu Jingzhi smiled and picked up the bowl, saying, "Alright, let's not talk about the affairs of the capital for now, let's drink..."
