Chapter 936 Entrusted by the Queen

A little surprised, Gu Qing still replied, "I've seen the queen."

"Xiang'er has disturbed Mr. Gu during this period." She continued to salute and said.

Gu Qing still returned a greeting, "No, he is quite sensible."

The queen gave another gift.

"Can you stop polite? You're so tired." Gu Qing said unconsciously.

"Okay, okay." Empress Changsun interrupted the awkward atmosphere, "Gu Qing, why do you have the leisure to come to see us today?"

"I'm just too idle, so idle that I'm just thinking about coming over for a walk." Gu Qing nodded and said.

Empress Changsun sat aside and said, "Your Majesty and I know about the children. It's just that the Goguryeo envoy took the person away. Your Majesty is still wondering? What kind of person are you Gu Qing? Can they take the person away so easily?"

Waiting for the time being, Li Er spoke, but unexpectedly, Empress Changsun spoke first. Gu Qing thought about it and said nothing to hide it: "Does Your Majesty want to know?"

"I'm old." Li Er sighed, "I don't need to know some things. What does your young people have to do with me, the old man, but you can also say that I think it's all about listening to the fun."

If you want to listen, Li Er looked reluctant to do so. Gu Qing felt disgusted and had to speak: "This is the thing. The envoy sent by Goguryeo this time is not a good person. He is quite versatile. This time they took the people away, but they also have to agree to me three conditions."

"What are the three conditions, tell me." Li Er looked at Gu Qing.

"The first condition is that the money house enters Goguryeo, the second condition is to give up Liaodong City, and the third condition is that the minister whom the Goguryeo king relies most will stay in the Tang Dynasty for my use." Gu Qing nodded and added: "It's not a very important condition. People agreed without thinking."

After listening to Gu Qing's words, Li Er pondered for a while and said, "Get the money house in Goguryeo, and you can build it when Gu Qing wants to control Goguryeo's money. If you get Liaodong City again, then Goguryeo will always have a knife on your neck. Gu Qing, this is not an unimportant condition. I also know the location of Liaodong City. I am not unclear about the importance of Liaodong City. People really agreed without thinking about it."

Li Er exposed it all, Gu Qing laughed bitterly and said, "The father-in-law really understood it at first. In fact, he didn't agree to me at first, but I tried it a little, but I didn't know what they were thinking. I just need to know how much they could afford."

"So you're getting benefits step by step?" For some reason, Li Er began to feel that Gu Qing was disliked again. Will Li Zhi and Li Xiang both follow Gu Qing to learn bad things? What should I do?

"Just shout high prices and wait for others to bargain." Gu Qing said casually to Li Er, "For example, a piece of cloth in my hand was originally worth only thirty cents, and I shouted for 500 cents. Then the envoy of Goguryeo is my customer, and I waited for them to come to bargain. During this period, they knew that only I had the piece of cloth they needed, and after temptation, I found that they needed urgently."

"So that brother of King Goguryeo is that piece of cloth?" asked Empress Changsun.

"That's what it means, but it's just a metaphor." Gu Qing said again: "I understand these points above. Only I need the cloth they urgently need. No one can sell it except me. From this point, I have the advantage, so I shouted high prices and waited for them to bargain. Who knew that these guys could not bargain with me, so they nodded and agreed, which was quite boring."

"Haha." Li Er sneered, "So you Gu Qing is such a person who is good at getting cheap."

"Where is it?" Gu Qing said again: "I'm still waiting for them to bargain."

"Then I will ask you again, why did you let your national savage stay in the Tang Dynasty?" Li Er continued.

"For Goguryeo, the Tang people are foreigners. If the money house wants to enter Goguryeo in the true sense, they need to get along with the Goguryeo people. At this time, someone needs to help us build momentum. Then this national teacher is a minister under the King of Goguryeo and has some reputation in Goguryeo. It would be a pity not to use it. I can't force the Goguryeo people to come to my money house to save money. So what is the difference between me and the bandits?"

"Killing someone to kill your heart, cutting your flesh with a soft knife is the most painful." Li Er nodded involuntarily, "Gu Qing, your methods are still as fierce as ever."

"Your Majesty is too much." Gu Qing smiled and poured another glass of wine for Li Er.

It was still drizzling outside. Gu Qing sat at Li Er's house for a while before he was about to leave. Before leaving, the queen of Li Xiang's mother, Li Chengqian, followed him.

"Mr. Gu, please stay."

Gu Qing turned around and looked at her, "What is the queen's order?"

"I am very grateful to Mr. Gu Hou as a teacher of Xiang'er, but Mr. Gu Hou should not take care of anything else, just think that Mr. Xiang'er is an ordinary child."

Standing and looking at the queen who bowed to him, Gu Qing whispered: "What kind of person is the queen who hopes he will become in the future."

"I don't understand what Mr. Gu means." The queen whispered.

"Then I'll make it clear." Gu Qing lowered his voice and said in a tone that only two people could hear: "Do you want your son to become the future emperor?"

She couldn't answer this question for a long time.

"Then I'll change the word." Gu Qing said to her again: "How many people in the palace hope that your son will not be able to enter the palace from now on. Li Chengqian has many concubines, and Li Chengqian has more than one child. You know what I mean."

"Are you bargaining with me now?" Queen Su stood in the rain and clenched her fists.

Gu Qing turned around and smiled and said, "You are the queen, how dare I? Who will your son become in the future? Can you make the decision?"

"I..." She couldn't say this for a moment.

Gu Qing handed her the umbrella, "You can hold it."

She took the umbrella and looked at Gu Qing in confusion.

"I will not decide what kind of person your son will be in the future. What he wants to make is himself. If he wants to be an emperor, I will not help him, but he will also work hard on his own. If he does not become an emperor, I do not guarantee if anyone in the palace will persecute him in the future. But as my disciple, don't worry! I will keep him safe for the rest of his life."

After Gu Qing said that, she left, holding the umbrella in her hand, with mixed feelings in her heart. The palace was dark and silly, Xiang'er was the prince, the opponent of all Li Chengqian's sons. I will keep him safe for the rest of his life. If Gu Qing was to protect him for the rest of his life, what could Xiang'er grow up?
