Chapter 345 Ten Gifts
Immediately, a little eunuch began to step forward, holding a notebook and a brush to start counting the same records.

Gu Yan walked over to look around, picked up a green jade bracelet, handed it to Cui Jiayun and said:

"This bracelet has a good head,"

The second half of the sentence "Do you want to keep it?"

He gave Cui Jiayun a look, and Cui Jiayun understood what he meant, and shook his head to signal that he didn't want it.

Gu Yan put down his things, picked up another green pearl hairpin and said to Cui Jiayun:

"This emerald bead hairpin is also good, with fine workmanship and excellent water head."

Cui Jiayun is speechless

"My father-in-law has a good eye, but I don't like wearing green on my hair."

Gu Yan speechlessly threw the pearl hairpin back into the box.

"You think too much, isn't it a matter of time?"

Cui Jiayun frowned, understanding what he meant, the corners of his lips curled up and said:
"It doesn't exist here, my father-in-law doesn't believe it, just wait and see in the future."

Seeing her confident appearance, Gu Yan shook his head and sighed, the girl is still too young after all.

Forget it, let him watch more in the future!

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but think of the second child, and a dark light flashed in his eyes.

"Take the person back to the West Factory first, and send these things directly to the palace after counting them."

The emperor in the imperial study room heard that Gu Yan had sent someone over, so he couldn't help but wonder:

"Carry in!"

The little eunuch who came to deliver the message paused and said:

"Back to the emperor, there are a lot of things, I'm afraid I can't fit them in the imperial book."

The emperor frowned, curiously put down the memorial in his hand, got up and went out of the imperial study with his hands behind his back.

Walking and saying:

"Then I want to see, what did the factory workers give me, so much that I can't put it in the imperial study?"

When I came to the old store outside the Yushufang, there were more than a dozen boxes, large and small, outside the Yushufang.

Seeing the emperor coming out, Gu Yan waved to those people, and the guards opened the box.

The emperor was stunned by so many gold, silver and jade objects, and his brows were furrowed in displeasure, looking at Gu Yanwen who was at the side

"What are you doing?"

Gu Yan took two steps forward, knelt on the ground, put the ledger above his head with both hands and said:

"Back to the emperor, this servant went to the Zheng family to interrogate Mr. Zheng today.

While urging the girl to help the servant find evidence, she accidentally discovered the secret passage of the Zheng family.

There are so many gold, silver and jewels hidden in it, the slaves dare not specialize.

So they made a list of these gold, silver and jewels and sent them directly to the palace for the emperor to have a look at. "

"The Zheng family! What a Zheng family!"

As the emperor spoke, he took a look at the list he had handed over, and handed it to Eunuch Wang at the side.

He picked up the ledger and looked it over again, the last page said how many things were sent to the queen mother in the palace.

What did you ask the Queen Mother to help with?

What are the officials below.

The emperor looked ashen, threw the ledger and said:

"A good Zheng family is a good one,"

He swallowed those two words of queen mother.

In the end, he was still angry, and said to the eunuch next to him:

"Go ask the empress dowager to come over and see if there is anything you like among these jewels."

Eunuch Wang responded and went to invite the Empress Dowager.

Not long after, the Empress Dowager supported the head steward beside him, followed by several court ladies, who came sitting in the palace.

I saw so many gold, silver, jewelry and jade articles outside the emperor's study room.

He frowned slightly and glanced at his eyes, but he didn't notice anything wrong.

I asked after seeing the emperor salute her

"The emperor invited Ai's family to see these vulgar things?"

The emperor is smiling

"Does the Queen Mother also think these are vulgar things?

All these were found from the mansion of my good minister, Mr. Zheng.

Who would believe that a mere fourth-rank official's family was so wealthy? "

When the Queen Mother heard him talking about Master Zheng, her face turned cold.

The fourth-rank officer was still surnamed Zheng, and the Queen Mother's hand tightened instantly.

"Oh, is that so? The harem is not allowed to engage in politics, and the Ai family doesn't know whether it is appropriate to have so many things in the fourth-rank official residence.

The emperor can deal with these things as he sees them, so why ask Aijia to do it? "

"Of course I ask the empress dowager to choose some favorites and bring them back to play with."

The emperor's speaker picked up an account book and handed it to the empress dowager
"The Zheng family really went too far, even recording your innocence in the account book.

I don't know if they deliberately slandered the arrangement and slandered you, the Queen Mother. "

The queen mother looked at the account book handed by the emperor and did not accept it, but said to the emperor:

"Since the emperor Aijia became the empress dowager, he has always abided by his duties, eating fast and praying to Buddha in the palace, and has not surpassed in the slightest.

If the emperor thinks that the Ai family is obstructing your eyes, the Ai family will move to Wutai Mountain to worship the Buddha, and pray to God to bless me with good weather and prosperity in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Aijia is willing to hide from the world from now on, so as not to be caught in the eyes of the emperor.

Let others break our mother-child relationship.

I don't know if this can dispel your suspicion about Aijia, Your Majesty? "

"What are you talking about, Queen Mother, you are the Queen Mother of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

You are my aunt, where can I let you go to Mount Wutai to worship the Buddha?

I think Huangjue Temple is not bad, and I can rest assured that there is a Buddha protecting you, Queen Mother.

And Huangjue Temple is not far from the capital, but it can be reached in half a day.

If I miss the queen mother, I can go to see the queen mother at any time. "

The queen mother sneered in her heart, it's just a distribution, it's not the same everywhere, but she still wants to put herself under his nose.

That's it for the emperor!

"The place the emperor said is good, of course it is good. In this case, Ai's family will move to Huangjue Temple tomorrow, burn incense and fast, and pray for the Great Zhou."

The emperor smiled

"Then there will be the queen mother!"

After the mother and son made a happy decision, the emperor said to Mr. Gu:

"You go back! Master Zheng can be tried as you like. I believe the Queen Mother will not bend the law for personal gain and protect Master Zheng."

Gu Yan: "Yes!"

When the queen mother heard what the emperor said, she also made a statement

"Although the Zheng family is related to the Ai family, the Ai family has long since ignored court affairs.

Mr. Gu can be tried as he pleases, regardless of Aijia's face. "

Gu Yan: "Yes, the servant will definitely not follow the law for selfishness, nor will he wrong Mr. Zheng.

The servant will leave now! "

Seeing that Gu Yan was about to step back, the emperor said:
"You did a good job of urging the girl this time. You can pick a few things from here and bring them to her, and say that I reward her."

"Yes, the slave first thanked the emperor for urging the girl!"

Cui Jiayun was roasting sweet potatoes with Lengshuang in the mansion at this time, and when he heard people from outside saying that Mr. Gu had brought the emperor's reward, he hurried out to greet him.

When they came to the front yard, they saw ten eunuchs standing in a row behind Gu Yan, each holding a mahogany tray in their hands.

Such generosity, he even rewarded himself with so many treasures this time.

"Master Gu!"

With a three-point smile on Gu Yan's face, he waved his hands behind him, and ten people immediately opened the red cloth with all kinds of jade pendants on them.

Cui Jiayun glanced over and saw that none of them were green, so he knew that these must have been selected by Mr. Gu.
