Chapter 208 The Arrogant Concubine 26
"Don't worry, my dear."
Emperor Jingzhang smiled and said, "After all, they are all meritorious officials. They have made great contributions to Beixuan and the royal family. I will not use harsh measures against them."
He just wanted to take back power, not to kill the nobles.
Otherwise~
If he were to get rid of the donkey after it has done its job, would he still want to keep his reputation?
Therefore, Emperor Jingzhang hoped that Guo Rongan could convey these words to those veteran nobles - as long as they behaved themselves, he would let them go.
But there is no way Guo Rongan could understand such words.
But this did not prevent Guo Rongan from agreeing quickly. After all -
Who wants to chat with an old man? His sweetheart is waiting for him in the side hall!
When Emperor Jingzhang saw him looking towards the side hall frequently, he couldn't help laughing and waved his hand to let him go.
Only then did the prince slowly come over.
Came to get information.
There was nothing to hide. Emperor Jingzhang told him, "In recent years, the noble families in the capital have become more and more greedy and they want to turn the emperor into a puppet."
Hearing this, the prince frowned, "The aristocratic family has deep roots. If we want to remove it... can Guo Rongan do it?"
"removal?"
Emperor Jingzhang laughed, "The noble families are like spring grass. If you remove one batch, another batch will grow. Can you remove them all?"
He doesn't want it to be removed.
It's suppression.
This group of aristocratic families were allowed to suck blood from Beixuan, but they were not allowed to go too far, especially not to challenge the emperor's status.
If this batch is not obedient, just replace them with another one.
Look~
Isn’t Guo Rongan a perfect tool?
We can all see him. As long as we listen to him as the emperor and work hard for him, we will all have a bright future. Otherwise...
The prince obviously understood what Emperor Jingzhang meant, and couldn't help but sigh softly -
He was still too impatient.
He still has a lot to learn about the position of emperor.
But it doesn’t matter, he’s still young!
"Guo Rongan is good. He is smart and knows how to handle current affairs."
"Ok?"
"You can use it, too."
Prince:?
"I use?"
Emperor Jingzhang glanced at him and said, "You can use it later."
Compared to his stupid second son, his fourth and fifth sons who have some brains and courage but not much, and his cowardly third son who has always been the prince's follower, he is more inclined to give the throne to the prince.
Although the prince wanted to kill him and he also wanted to depose the prince, it didn't matter, these were all minor issues.
The relationship between this father and son is quite twisted.
They want to kill each other and step on each other whenever they get the chance, but they also appreciate and help each other...
On the other side, Guo Rongan led Shu Jiao out of the palace.
The two of them strolled on the road for a while. Guo Rongan bought Shu Jiao a lot of jewelry on the grounds that "Shu Jiao was frightened". They did not go home until dark.
Afterwards, Guo Rongan told this matter to Marquis Zhongwu.
Marquis Zhongwu: ???
"Tell me again, what did the emperor say? How did he react at that time?"
Marquis Zhongwu asked.
Guo Rongan had no choice but to repeat it to him, thinking: Dad is really old, his hearing doesn't work well anymore.
Marquis Zhongwu is not as stubborn as Guo Rongan.
He had already sensed something fishy from Emperor Jingzhang's attitude of reliance.
Just say it.
Old guys can't be too arrogant.
It turned out that he was an eyesore to the emperor and had to be dealt with.
However, his stupid son accidentally took his own family away. His luck is really amazing.
wrong!
It’s Shu Jiao.
If Shu Jiao hadn't run into trouble on the street, how could she have made a scene in the palace? If she hadn't made a scene in front of the emperor, how could she have been trusted and employed, and had the chance to escape death?
Marquis Zhongwu touched his chin.
I always feel that Shu Jiao is a lucky person. Since she came into the family, everything has been good!
"In the future, you should get in touch with Aunt Shu more often."
"You still need to tell me."
Guo Rongan walked away and went back to Yixinyuan to find Shu Jiao, where he spent a wonderful night.
Marquis Zhongwu went into the study, picked up his pen and started writing. More than a dozen letters were quickly sent to various major mansions.
After Guo Rongan investigated the Weining Marquis' Mansion, the Jingyang Marquis' Mansion... the atmosphere in the entire noble circle became wrong.
In the past, the dandy young men who were allowed out to have fun in the various mansions were all kept at home by their parents, who resolutely prevented them from going out to cause trouble.
Especially after Guo Rongan handed over the evidence of his crimes and the nobles such as the Weining Marquis' Mansion completely declined, the nobles wanted to keep their tails between their legs, fearing that they would be targeted by Emperor Jingzhang and become the next chicken to be slaughtered.
They couldn't say that Emperor Jingzhang was not doing the right thing, so they could only spread some rumors to disgust Guo Rongan.
Soon, Guo Rongan was furious for his beloved.
The news that several uncles' families were ruined for a concubine spread quickly throughout the capital and slowly outside.
Shu Jiao also became famous.
Everyone said that she had learned the magic to bewitch people, which was why she made Guo Rongan so confused that he lost his mind and had a brain stem loss, and they put her on the same level as those beautiful women who brought disaster to the world in the past.
They described her as someone who is rarely seen in five hundred years and is the most beautiful woman in the world, the most beautiful in the world.
She also said that it was a good thing that she followed Guo Rongan, because if she had entered the palace, Bei Xuan would have been dead.
Shu Jiao: ...
well.
Just blow it like that.
I am the most beautiful woman in the world!
Now when Shu Jiao goes out, she has to bring two more maids with her.
Everyone watched the scene from afar and backed away. They didn't dare to curse her, for fear that the madman Guo Rongan would hear them.
After all, there was the beaten censor in front and the decline of several great uncles' mansions later. The bloody cases are right in front of us!
The sales of Shu Jiao's rouge and powder shop and cloth store soared.
Many girls and ladies like to buy it.
Nothing else.
I just hope to be like her, relying on Shu Jiao's rouge and powder to control my husband's heart.
Countless unmarried girls go to the temple to burn incense, praying to find a husband like Guo Rongan who loves them and is devoted to them.
Although the reputation is indeed not good.
But happy!
If I could get a husband like this, I would lose ten pounds, get two shades whiter, and never lose my hair...
Shu Jiao, who was burning incense together and heard the woman next to her mumbling: ???
Is this what you wish for?
You are such a little genius.
After burning incense, she took the maid out. Guo Rongan, who was waiting outside, took two steps forward and took her by the hand. "Why do you suddenly want to burn incense?"
"I pray for you to have good luck and prosperity in everything."
Shu Jiao smiled and said, "The Qiqiao Festival will be held next month. I want to see the big fireworks. Can you show them to me?"
"can!"
Guo Rongan nodded, "It's almost finished. After the Qiqiao Festival, we will go outside the city to set it off."
The main thing is that... it seems that there is something wrong with the way it is placed...
It exploded too violently.
He had to weaken the power a little.
By the way, although Guo Rongan killed several barons, Emperor Jingzhang did not promote him, but only gave him some good things.
but……
Because of this, everyone knew that he had truly caught the eye of Emperor Jingzhang.
He didn't get promoted, but all the credit is given to him.
When the time is right, it will be no problem for Guo Rongan to soar to success.
Therefore, for a while, the Mansion of Marquis Zhongwu became very popular in the capital, forcing Marquis Zhongwu to keep a low profile and even pretend to be sick three times.
