Farm Gate Business Tycoon

Chapter 430 The Grand Finale (23)
In addition, this person was born as an orphan and has no parents-in-law, so Gu Qingmei's old aunt is very satisfied with this.

King Jiajun has already resigned from his post in the Ministry of War on the pretext of being old. Murong Yu is in charge of the Ministry of War now, and he is extremely busy every day.

Originally, those old guys in the Ministry of War were not convinced that Murong Yu, a young man in his twenties, was allowed to sit in this position, and even made trouble with the emperor.

But the emperor blocked these people back with only one sentence. The emperor only said: "Whoever has the ability to solve the problem of military pay, I will give this seat to him."

Where are these officials willing to take the money out of their pockets, not to mention that they can't afford it even if they want to.

The frontier kept sending good news. This battle lasted for three years, and finally drove the Tartars back to their lair, and the army approached the city, completely besieging the capital of the Tartar Kingdom.

The king of the Tartar Kingdom didn't like it, so he obediently handed in the letter of surrender, expressing his willingness to surrender.

Originally, according to Murong Yu's intention, he wanted to write a letter, suggesting that the emperor should simply occupy the entire Tartar kingdom, but Gu Qingmei's words dispelled his idea.

Gu Qingmei said: "It is easy to conquer a country, but it is difficult to conquer a nation. Unless all the Tartars in the world are killed, otherwise, there will never be a way to conquer them, because the two countries have different beliefs, and they will definitely be different in the future. There are endless internal struggles. But if the killing karma is too heavy, there will be retribution sooner or later, because defending the country and aggression are two completely different concepts."

After hearing her words, Murong Yu was silent for a long time, and then he uttered these words in the court hall the next day, which also moved the emperor.

In this battle, the prestige of the Suye Dynasty was played out, and the surrounding countries that were not as powerful as the Tartars finally subsided, and did not dare to make trouble in a short time.

The emperor rewarded him for his meritorious deeds, and all the three heroes of the Gu family got official posts. Gu Qingtang and Gu Qinglei were both first-rank generals, but Gu Qingyang went directly to the Imperial Academy and was responsible for teaching the emperor's grandchildren.

Gu Qinglei led an army of 20 to guard the northern border, echoing the youngest of Murong's family in the northwest, and obtained the emperor's permission to bring his family.

Gu Qingtang was even more highly valued, and the emperor named him a captain of the nine sects, in charge of the safety of the capital.

The Gu family finally reached the sky by relying on the military exploits of these three brothers.

Even Su Xiaofeng got the position of Marquis of Ten Thousand Households by virtue of his military exploits, and he was in charge of ten thousand soldiers and horses.

When returning to the capital to receive the seal, Gu Qingmei urged Mrs. Su to arrange his marriage with Sister Qiao.

Gu Qingmei managed her business seriously, she finally opened a jewelry shop as she wished, and asked Huo Jinhua to find the right staff to take over the stall of the glasses workshop, and then be in charge of the jewelry business.

However, it is a high-end route, specializing in limited edition jewelry, the price is ridiculously expensive, but the business is very good.

As for the businesses at the border gates, they have also made progress one after another, and the construction of the city wall to protect the country has been proceeding in an orderly manner.

In the beginning, Murong Yu needed to fill in money, but gradually, he started to make money.

The land they bought gradually attracted many tenants, who settled down there, and all the grain they grew was supplied to the local corvees.

There is also the academy presided over by the Fourth Prince's Concubine, which has finally opened. Gu Qingmei's status is different now, she is one of the ten shareholders.

In the first wave of the academy, a hundred female students were admitted, and each student's Shu Xiu was 880 taels, and he immediately earned 28 taels.

The fourth concubine and other shareholders were all overjoyed.

Under Gu Qingmei's seemingly inadvertent guidance, the imperial court gradually reduced the food and payment to the border gate, forcing several leading generals at the border gate to find their own way to solve the food and drink problem.

Almost every city has been assigned military fields, which are cultivated by soldiers in turn.

Originally, those generals and soldiers didn't do it, and even almost rebelled because of the reform of military pay. It was Gu Qingmei who wrote an appeal in plain language and asked Murong Yu to take it to find relatives. Read it to the officers and soldiers, move it with emotion, understand it with reason, and these officers and soldiers stopped.

As a result, the national treasury gradually became more abundant.

In winter, King Jiajun got typhoid fever, and died within a month.

Murong Hui succeeded in taking over the title of Prince of the County very smoothly, because Murong Yu already had a title, so the position of the crown prince naturally fell to Murong Bo.

In the second lady's room, the housekeeper's mother who was close to the second lady had a sad expression on her face, "Second lady, what should we do now? The uncle has inherited the title, so our second master has no hope?"

The second lady had a tight and mean face, her face sank like water, desperately thinking about how to take the throne, but in the end all she could do was sigh in despair.

She couldn't think of any way at all.

Poison?They are strictly guarded over there, and they never took the chance when they lived in the mansion, and now they have moved out, let alone the chance.

Buying?The bright and dark guards around her are all martial arts masters. She also heard that there is a particularly famous assassin group in the Jianghu, called the Baizhan League, and Murong Yu put it in the pot. The few guards here are only three-legged cat kung fu, but they are better than the errand servants.

Faintly, she had an instinctive intuition that her man would not be able to sit on that throne in his life.

Jiajun Palace...

"Grandmother...Grandmother..." Murong Ao ran into Princess Jiajun's residence like a ball.

He looks very much like Murong Yu, at a young age, with pink make-up and jade carvings, like a jade doll.

The former Princess Jiajun, and now the Jiajun Princess, looked at her grandson kindly, "Brother Ao, are you so obedient to pay your respects to grandma today?"

"Grandmother eats candy!" Murong Ao quickly climbed onto Princess Jiajun's lap, spread out his small palm, and showed Princess Jiajun a pine nut candy in his palm.

"Brother Ao is so good, you know how to honor your grandmother at such a young age." Princess Jiajun didn't think the little guy's hands were dirty, she lowered her head and put the pine nut candy into her mouth.

Only then did Gu Qingmei come in from the outside, and said angrily: "This little guy, when he heard that he was going to pay his respects to grandma, he ran faster than a rabbit."

As she said that, she gave a gentle gift to her mother-in-law. From the perspective of a mother-in-law, Jiang Wanruo was the most easy-going mother-in-law she had ever met. Don't let her set the rules.

Now, she is in her 20s, and she is no longer that young girl with a green appearance. There is a calm aura between her brows.
