The black-bellied highness, the evil concubine

Chapter 58 Free Arrangement in the Middle Game (1)
Jiangcheng, Qingxue Residence in the south of the city, is the temporary residence of His Highness the Crown Prince and his party.

"Your Highness, Lord Gu is here!"

Outside the study, Jian Qingtong preached.

Zhuge Jingyao put away the letter he had just received, "Let him in!"

Jian Qing immediately opened the door, held his hand and said to Gu An: "Master Gu, please!"

Gu An walked in with some difficulty, and when he saw His Highness the Crown Prince, he wanted to salute, but Zhuge Jingyao said first, "Lord Gu, excuse me!"

"Thank you, Your Highness!" Gu An still leaned slightly and said.

"Master Gu, your injury is not serious. If you have something to report, let the servants report it. Why do you have to work so hard?" Zhuge Jingyao looked at Gu An, who had obvious scars on his hands and face, and couldn't help it Talk too much.

Gu An, with a pale face, said with a smile: "It's okay to be humble, and it is the responsibility of the humble to report the affairs of the city to His Highness. Of course, the humble can't be lazy because of such a small injury!"

If someone else said these words, Zhuge Jingyao would only think that that person was pretending to please him, but when these words came from Gu An's mouth, Zhuge Jingyao didn't have the slightest sense of disgust.

"Then how is the situation in the city?" Now that Gu An had said so, Zhuge Jingyao naturally stopped being polite, and restored his serious face, and asked calmly.

Gu An replied: "This time, due to natural disasters, a total of 36 people were killed in Jiangcheng, dozens of houses collapsed, and the crops were also destroyed. The losses are quite serious!"

"And because of Xu Daoyuan, 12 more people died one after another!" Gu An said quite heartbroken.

Those 12 people, either because they were not treated in time, or because they resisted Xu Daoyuan forcefully, they ended up like that, they are really innocent!

Thinking of those lives, Gu An felt uneasy!

As the parent official of Jiangcheng, he was unable to save the lives of the people, and he was really ashamed.

Seeing his expression, Zhuge Jingyao said clearly: "Lord Gu, there are not many corrupt officials like Xu Daoyuan in Dayang. They all treat the common people like nothing, and feel that their lives are not worth mentioning. But I don’t know that the reason why they can become officials is because of the existence of common people!”

"The people of Jiangcheng should feel lucky to have such a caring parent as Mr. Gu. If it weren't for Mr. Gu, the situation in Jiangcheng would be even more dire!"

"I'm ashamed of my humble job. If it weren't for the uselessness of my humble job, this time, I wouldn't have caused the common people to suffer like this!" Gu An said with a guilty face.

Zhuge Jingyao looked at Gu An, and said with a smile: "Then how can I blame you, if I want to blame, I can only blame Xu Daoyuan for being too greedy!"

Immediately afterwards, he said: "Master Gu is upright and upright for the country and the people. His Majesty also values ​​such talents. The left servant of the Ministry of Punishment will be dismissed and returned to the field in a few days. I wonder if Mr. Gu has the confidence to be qualified for this position?" ?”

Hearing this, Gu An was stunned for a moment.

When he understood the meaning of the crown prince's words, he cupped his hands and knelt down and said: "The humble official must do his best to benefit the common people, and do his best to serve His Highness and Your Majesty!"

From the moment His Highness the Crown Prince rescued the people of Jiangcheng, Gu An had already decided that His Highness the Crown Prince was more suitable for the throne than His Royal Highness King Qin who only knew about luxury but did not know the sufferings of the people.

Even for the sake of the common people, he doesn't want the King of Qin to inherit the rule!

"It will be so hard for Mr. Lao Gu in the future!" Zhuge Jingyao was not surprised by Gu An's reaction.
