”Auntie!”

On the way back to Yongshou Palace, Zhuang Yuexi couldn't help calling Concubine Zhuang.

Concubine Zhuang glanced at her sideways: ”What's the matter?”

Zhuang Yuexi is a lady of the banker, dignified and quiet, and the aunt just now was a bit gaffe.

Zhuang Yuexi knew that she was wrong, and handed the flower basket in her hand to the court lady on the side, carrying her skirt to catch up with the concubine Zhuang, whispering: ”Yue'er has gone wrong, auntie please punish me.”

Zhuang noble concubine said without anger: ”You have been wrong since you just met County Master Hui. After all, what hatred or grievances do you have with others?”

”There is no hatred.” Zhuang Yuexi whispered.

Concubine Zhuang still doesn’t know her niece? Since childhood, she has been the most distinguished daughter in the capital, she is brilliant, talented and handsome, and has never met an opponent.

Gu Jinyu was not as well-known as Zhuang Yuexi in his early years. However, he was first canonized as the county head, and then shined in the female school, gradually becoming equal to Zhuang Yuexi.

Gu Jinyu is not surpassing Zhuang Yuexi at the moment, but with Zhuang Yuexi’s dignity, it is already a failure to share the beauty with others.

Concubine Zhuang continued to move forward, and while walking, she said: “It’s because of these things that you don’t like the county lord Hui? Auntie told you that you are the daughter of the dealer. You have to have a high vision and a high profile.”

Zhuang Yuexi is not because of this.

Zhuang Yuexi looked down and said, ”Aunty taught me a lot.” After a pause, he said again, ”But why does my aunt suddenly care about County Master Hui's marriage? Does my aunt want to be a matchmaker for her?”

Zhuang Guifei smiled faintly: ”My palace wants to, but she has to nod her head to agree.”

Zhuang Yuexi was originally just trying to test her aunt, but she would get this answer: ”Aunt...who do you want to marry her? Big cousin? Or—”

Zhuang Guifei, but she was silent.

Zhuang Yuexi's heart twitched: ”Auntie, you don't want to marry her to your brother and let her be my sister-in-law?”

The dealer has several sons, but the only one unmarried is Jun Wang.

Zhuang Guifei did not admit or deny.

Zhuang Yuexi's eyes suddenly panicked: ”Auntie, she is not worthy of her brother! She is not a real daughter of the Hou Mansion, but a peasant girl in the countryside. Even if her majesty canonize her as the county head, it is just a good reputation. There isn't even a food town, what kind of county owner!”

Concubine Zhuang stopped, and the court ladies also stopped. Concubine Zhuang stroked a four-season osmanthus in the basket: ”The county owner is indeed not worthy, but what if...she becomes the county owner?”

Zhuang Yue was stunned.

On the other side, Gu Houye was once again called by Zhao Shangshu to the main hall where he handled official duties.

Gu Houye has been scolded miserably recently, and his heart can’t hide from the scolding again.

However, to Gu Houye's surprise, Zhao Shangshu's expression was extremely soft, and it didn't look like he was going to scold him at all!

Gu Houye: Huh?

When Zhao Shangshu saw Gu Houye, he showed his first brilliant smile in months: ”Gu Shilang, how are you doing today?”

Gu Houye was confused by the look and tone of the boss's ”do you eat well, do you dress warmly, travel inconveniently, and whether your child has difficulty studying”.

He has no idea what this is like.

Zhao Shangshu personally pulled Gu Houye's wrist, and invited the person to sit down in a chair.

Gu Houye looked at the hand that was holding him, and wanted to tell him that a male or a male can't accept it!

Zhao Shangshu said with a smile: ”You are also true, you have given birth to such a promising daughter, why didn't you say it earlier?”

Gu Houye was completely out of the picture.

Zhao Shangshu smiled and sighed, ”It’s hard for me to hide it! What can I hide from such an important matter?”

”I, what did I hide from you?” Gu Houye was confused.

Zhao Shangshu said: ”The people from the Ministry of Defense have been here, and they asked me if the bellows was invented by your daughter?”

Gu Houye pointed to himself: ”My daughter?”

Zhao Shangshu frowned: ”Don't you know yet?”

Gu Houye shook his head like a rattle.

Zhao Shangshu said: ”Then I ask you, do you have a daughter?”

Gu Houye nodded: ”Yeah.”

Zhao Shangshu continued: ”Last summer, were you and your daughter in Qingquan Town, Youzhou?”

Gu Houye nodded again: ”Yeah.”

Zhao Shangshu said again: ”Is your daughter Bingxue smart?”

Master Gu Hou nodded his head: ”Hmm!”

His Jinyu must be smart! Play a little clever! If it weren't for women who were not allowed to end the imperial examination, his Jinyu could at least be a high school scholar!

Zhao Shangshu patted the back of his right hand to the palm of his left hand: ”Isn't this going to end? Last year, who appeared in that town, besides your daughter, is there any other daughter in the Hou Palace whose surname is Gu?”

Gu Houye understood what was going on when he heard this, and dare to believe that the court found a clue to the little girl.

But... I haven’t heard Jinyu say it before!

Gu Houye was not so eager for quick success to take credit for himself, he decided to go back to the mansion to find Gu Jinyu to ask about the situation.

This matter fermented much faster than Gu Jinyu had imagined. She read only the sages and sages, and did not hear anything outside the window. She didn’t even know what the invention of blasting technology meant to Zhaoguo.

His Majesty seemed calm, but in fact he almost became a fool.

Liangguo’s deflated gadgets, they only used a little inferior water drainage technology to replace their Zhaoguo mines. Although the two countries have not fought, this tone is even more unswallowable than defeated.

Now it’s good, let’s exhale!

Six parts are all swept by this technology. It can not only be used to make iron, but it can also improve the quality of metallurgy. How much is Zhaoguo? Gold mine!

Furthermore, Zhaoguo has the lowest level of productivity among the six countries, so even if there are many mines, it is still a poor country.

Looking at the people’s life seemed to be going well, it was because the two emperors were still conscientious, did not squeeze the people violently, and they also gave a lot of tax relief. The national treasury is actually too poor. Otherwise, can you sell the degree from the Imperial College to Lin Chengye?

Half of the building donated by the Lin family to the Imperial College was put into the treasury by His Majesty.

However, even though Gu Jinyu didn't know the movement of the court and Liubu, she also experienced the changes in her surroundings.

When she came back from the palace, the personal little maid told her that the female school officer had come, and asked her how well her body was recuperated, and when did she go back to class?

Gu Jinyu has been recuperating at home for so long, and the female officer does not come to the door early and late. It happens that when he comes to the door at this time, who can say that she was not instructed by the princess?

Is it because the princess also heard about the bellows?

It’s not surprising to think about it. Concubine Shu and Concubine Zhuang have heard of it. Can the crown concubine not hear it?
