"It's okay, there are many people in Chang'an who call me a murderer without blinking. It's okay to say a few more words." Gu Qing looked at the Goguryeo envoy and said, "You continue talking."

The envoy of Goguryeo bowed and whispered: "I dare not say anything."

"Then let's talk about your purpose." Gu Qing changed his seat and looked at the cloudy sky outside the window. "You Goguryeo hope to send your children to the academy to study. How many students do you want to arrange now?"

Speaking of this, the Goguryeo envoy immediately became energetic, "Looking back at Master Hou, there are only ten in total."

"Ten." Gu Qing thought in trouble, "Have you ever seen that person in the palace?"

The envoy of Goguryeo knew that Gu Qing was talking about the current Tang Dynasty emperor Li Chengqian. Now the relationship between Gu Hou and the Tang Dynasty emperor is very bad, which is almost well known in Chang'an. When he came to the Tang Dynasty to talk about the academy, Li Chengqian could not give a specific answer at all. He could only hand it over to the academy, but the academy had to be handed over to Gu Qing, and that academy was also built by Gu Qing.

After thinking for a long time, the Goguryeo envoy spoke, "I haven't been there yet, but His Majesty the Tang Dynasty had a first say, and it all depends on the academy. In this way, we found the academy. The academy did not want to interfere in the government affairs, so we had to ask us to see Mr. Gu."

"Aren't you afraid of offending him?" Gu Qing asked with interest.

The envoy of Goguryeo continued: "Our king has given instructions to offend His Majesty the Tang Dynasty than to offend Gu Hou of the Tang Dynasty."

"Is this Goguryeo King really following my leader?"

"Without Gu Houye's succession from thousands of miles to Goguryeo and fighting against Ancestral Gaisuwen, there would be no Goguryeo today." He bowed and said.

Fan Jian brought the tea to the Goguryeo envoy and said, "Drink a little tea."

"Thank you." The Goguryeo envoy drank it in one sip and said, "Good tea, thank you Gu Hou for giving the tea."

"You have been tired all the way to the Central Plains." Gu Qing said again: "This is the second time I have come to study for your Goguryeo children. I can promise that you Goguryeo children will go to the academy to study, but there are only twenty places a year, and each student will have 1,000 guan a year. As for the current group of students, there is no need to pay. I promise that they will go to the academy to take back 10,000 guan. I, Gu Qing, don't care about this mere 10,000 guan."

"Thank you!" the envoy said excitedly, almost kneeling to the ground.

"There are only twenty places every year, so there can be no more." Gu Qing said.

"The minister understands that it is the minister who is negligent. Using this ten thousand coins of silver is a villain's heart to save the gentleman's affair." The envoy continued: "I just ask Mr. Gu to accept the goods brought from Goguryeo."

"I've taken it." Gu Qing nodded slightly.

Seeing that things were going well, the envoy said again: "There is one more thing, please agree to the Marquis."

"I've said enough, so you can go back and rest first. We'll talk about anything else."

Gu Qing's words were like an order to expel guests. The Goguryeo envoy bowed with a serious expression and said, "Goodbye, the minister."

Until the Goguryeo envoy left, Fan Jian took the note and said, "Marty, this is the note sent by His Highness the King of Wei from the academy."

Gu Qing opened the note and looked at it and said, "I didn't expect that this envoy is the most important minister of King Goguryeo now."

"Do you need to be prepared?" Fan Jian asked, "You can let the monks stare at it."

"No need." Gu Qing stood up and said, "The fat man said that this Goguryeo envoy often traded with Goguryeo in the Central Plains. There were many chess pieces sent out by the court in Goguryeo. This guy was attracted by the King of Goguryeo, so he made him a minister, and now he is here."

The study room became quiet, and the Goguryeo envoy walked out of the Gu family and looked solemn.

"Has Mr. Gu agreed?" several followers asked in Gaoli's words.

"I promised that every year our Goguryeo students have twenty places to study in Chang'an Academy, and we will not be charged this time and let us take it back."

"That's great." Several followers said, "I didn't expect that Mr. Gu of Chang'an is such a good person."

As the follower said this, the Goguryeo envoy's face became more and more serious, and there were many different comments on Gu Qing. One of them is certain that Gu Qing is a man who wants money, and this is inseparable from Gu Qing's current wealth that is as rich as the country.

Gu Qing was not such a good person. The envoy of Goguryeo thought to himself that in addition to allowing Goguryeo children to study in Chang'an, Gu Qing did not talk about the matter of Goguryeo's brother, nor did he give himself the opportunity to mention it.

Gu Qing is a powerful figure. The Gu family's ability to make a fortune is enough to show that Gu Qing is a capable person, but I am worried that Gu Qing's promise this time was too refreshing, which was surprising. He did not agree to the matter of Goguryeo's brother.

Thinking of this, the Goguryeo envoy concluded in his heart that Gu Qing might not have to do this 10,000 yuan, and perhaps he wanted more so that he would let the Goguryeo king's younger brother go home.

A mere ten thousand coins, this ten thousand coins actually has a great weight in Goguryeo. Although it is inconspicuous to Gu Qing, the Goguryeo treasury has this ten thousand coins and can do more things. Gu Qing will definitely want more, or pay a greater price for Goguryeo.

Sometimes I thought that King Goguryeo gave up his younger brother, because his younger brother Goguryeo had sent envoys to the Tang Dynasty several times, but for King Goguryeo, it was his only younger brother and his only blood relative.

This time, Gu Qing confiscated the money and regarded it as a favor. Goguryeo had to accept this favor. If he didn't accept it, he would not buy Gu Qing's face. Now Goguryeo would rather offend the emperor of the Tang Dynasty than offend Gu Qing now. It was because of what he said, Gu Qing would throw this favor over.

Now I owe someone favors, and I have to let the brother of the Goguryeo King go home. If I ask this, what price should Goguryeo pay to Gu Qing? Thinking of this, the envoy of Goguryeo looked even more ugly. He had suffered such a big loss in just a few words. In the end, he was put on by Gu Qing. The followers around him still smiled and thought they had picked up a bargain, but in fact Gu Qing had already dug a pit that forced him to jump down.

It was Gu Qing who wanted to use this mere ten thousand guan for greater benefits. How much is this ten thousand guan worth to Gu Qing?

The envoy said to his followers: "Don't be too happy first, go to Chang'an City to inquire about what big moves are there in the Tang Dynasty now, especially those east of the East China Sea and north of Shanhaiguan."
