At this time, a group of people were secretly watching in the main room.

With an embarrassment on his face, Cheng Chumo stood cautiously next to Zhao Ning and said with a slight sneer: "Master Wife, can you stop me? Just treat it as a pity for this poor disciple. I have been troubled a lot by my family these days.

"

The other disciples also nodded, looking at Zhao Ning eagerly and said: "Yes, yes, Master, please go out and show your face. Otherwise, if the Queen continues to talk, we will not dare to go out casually."

Zhao Ning smiled slightly and asked, "Why don't you dare to go out?"

Several disciples frowned and said angrily: "I'm afraid of being blocked by people in the family, and I'm also afraid of being blocked by relatives. Master, you may not know, but we've been very annoyed by being blocked these days."

Zhao Ning smiled again and said: "Who can blame this? You can only blame yourselves? Since you are upset about being blocked, why don't you fall out with them?"

Several disciples were slightly startled, and then they all laughed bitterly and said weakly: "The ones blocking us are all elders."

"What can the elders do?" Seeing Zhao Ning's face darken suddenly, he asked solemnly: "Are you going to follow your true heart, or should you retain false respect? Since those so-called elders have no shame, why should you save face for them.

"

Zhao Ning paused while speaking, and suddenly said with profound meaning: "Now that you have not taken power, those people have already begun to move up. If you take power in the future, think about what those people will do? Then there will be nothing

Why don't we go to great lengths and use various means to constantly attack you? If you can't resist it, will you just fall into the trap?"

Several disciples were stunned after hearing this, with thoughtful expressions on their faces.

Zhao Ning sighed, her tone became gentle, and said: "You guys will grow up one day. And in the process of growing up, there are certain thresholds that you must pass by yourself."

Zhao Ning stood up as he spoke, walked to the door of the room, looked out, and said softly: "Actually, the queen leaked the news on purpose. This move was a personal request from your master. As for why the queen was asked to leak the news,

With your wisdom, you should have some understanding of the tone of your mouth."

The disciples were slightly startled, and everyone fell into deep thought.

Soon, Lu Zhaoling was the first to speak, whispering: "Master, I understand. Master, he deliberately spread the news to further arouse the desires of those people."

The sixth disciple, Hu Yun, spoke immediately and said: "The higher the desire, the more greedy. The family members of disciples like us will definitely bother us even more after today."

The seventh disciple, Zhang Wei, said in a low voice: "This is the threshold of growth that the master's wife calls. We need to cross it ourselves."

No matter Lu Zhaolin, Hu Yun, or the little guy Zhang Wei, these three are extremely smart people, so they can figure out everything in the blink of an eye.

As for Cheng Chumo, Fang Yiai, and the second-ranked Li Chongyi, these three are a bit stupid and will definitely not be able to figure it out for a while.

Although they couldn't understand it, they had a vague idea. After all, they had been studying with Gu Tianya for a long time, and they could figure it out after thinking hard.

Only Xiao Wang Bo thought the most and suddenly said softly: "Master has good intentions and loves like a biological father. He asked the Queen to release the news for the sake of our growth. As Master just said, everyone

To pass the threshold in growth...some people have a high threshold, and some people have a low threshold. As disciples of the Gu family, we are destined to encounter an extremely difficult hurdle to overcome."

The disciples were stunned for a moment, and then everyone was thoughtful and murmured subconsciously: "Yes, Master really has good intentions. The news was released in advance, so people accepted it slowly. Since this news is not an official announcement, our

Relatives won’t get too excited, which means they won’t swarm us and use any means against us.”

After a pause, each murmured: "As long as we don't swarm you, it leaves us room to deal with it, and as we slowly accumulate experience, we will become more and more comfortable with this kind of thing...

…and the threshold of growth can be considered as passed.”

Xiao Wang Bo spoke softly again and said: "That's why I said that Master has worked hard and the threshold for our growth was originally as high as a mountain, but Master helped us turn it into gravel. Although these gravels will still block the road,

But we have the strength to kick these gravels away... And if the mountains don't turn into gravels, then few of us can walk over them. Even if we can barely walk over them, it will take many, many years."

Zhao Ning looked gentle, stretched out her hand to caress Wang Bo's forehead, and said happily: "Sure enough, you are the most considerate kid."

He praised Wang Bo, but did not favor one over the other. Zhao Ning looked at all the disciples and said warmly: "You are all very good too. Master Wife is very satisfied."

All the disciples quickly saluted.

Zhao Ning let out a breath, and suddenly felt something and said: "Your master comes from a humble background, and you have to fight for all the family fortunes yourself. Although you have created a family fortune now, the heirs in the family are not prosperous enough.

So far, the tiger cub has only one legitimate son."

He paused for a moment, then sighed and said: "Even in a common people's home, brothers and sisters also pay attention to helping each other. However, when the tiger baby grows up, I am afraid that there will not be enough brothers and sisters to help him. So, Master, I will help you.

We treat them all as parents and children.”

Cheng Chumo led the kneeling, and all the disciples knelt down and kowtowed, saying solemnly: "Master, please don't worry, we all regard the tiger cub as our biological brother."

Zhao Ning pulled the tiger baby to him and said solemnly: "Your tiger baby brother will also treat you as his own brother."

The tiger cub blinked, wondering why his mother and senior brothers were suddenly so serious.

This little guy is at the age where he loves to imitate most. When he ran to Cheng Chumo, he also knelt down and kowtowed, and said in a childish voice: "Mother, I knelt down too."

Zhao Ning was happy and helpless at the same time. She nodded happily and said warmly: "Everyone, get up. Let's go out and show our faces together."

Cheng Chumo led his disciples to stand up and asked cautiously: "Has Master Madam decided to make a big show of it? Are you asking us to cooperate with the Empress's move to leak the news?"

Zhaoning picked up the tiger cub and asked in a warm voice: "Do you have the guts?"

The disciples held their heads high and answered loudly together, saying: "Move forward with determination and not be afraid of the mountains. We cannot always let Master worry about this hurdle in our growth."

Zhaoning was even more pleased and took the lead out of the room.

…

As soon as he went out, he was immediately noticed by the ladies in the courtyard.

Zhao Ning's purpose was very clear, and he led his disciples straight to the big tree. After arriving at the foot of the tree, he said with a smile on his face: "Sister-in-law, I have brought all the little ones here."

Empress Changsun was so shrewd that she understood Zhao Ning's intention in just a moment. The empress also smiled and nodded slowly: "It's just a coincidence that I came here. I am talking about the little ones with the ladies. Originally, I was still a little nervous.

I am worried, afraid that I will say something wrong, but now that you are here as a master’s wife, it is up to you to decide whether you should say something or not.”

As the two of them said this, the ladies around them felt nervous. After all, Zhao Ning was a handsome and distinguished woman, and she was not as easy to get close to as the Queen.

I really don’t agree that I have the opportunity to talk about my relationship today, I’m afraid it’s over because of Zhao Ning’s appearance.

The ladies felt unwilling and disappointed.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Ning suddenly smiled and said warmly: "Since we can enter the Gu family compound to help, basically all the sisters are good friends in the family. There are also some who want to call sister-in-law and sister-in-law. The friendship between them is even more profound."

Three points…”

As soon as these words were spoken, all the ladies present were delighted. Everyone could faintly feel that Princess Pingyang's tone of voice was very relaxed.

Sure enough, Zhao Ning smiled again and said: "It's nothing more than some job arrangements for the children. It's not a secret that needs to be kept secret. Besides, this is just my own plan. Whether it succeeds or not depends on my husband's wishes."

, therefore, there is no need to hide it.”

The ladies were all overjoyed, having heard Zhao Ning's intention to tell the whole story.

Mrs. Cui was the first to stand up and said impatiently: "May I ask Princess Pingyang, what is Cheng Chumo's duty? Just now, the Queen was ready to say something, and everyone in the Nu family is eager to hear it."

Zhao Ning's style of doing things was completely different from Empress Changsun's deliberate vagueness. She said directly: "Cheng Chumo, the disciple of the Gu family, the senior brother, and this princess, as his mistress, admires this child's character very much. He

He is obedient and sensible, and the most important thing is filial piety, and he has never disobeyed his teacher... Because of this, he should be of great use, and I intend to give him a plan to make him the general manager in charge of Youzhou."

Wow!

The whole place was in an uproar.

Although everyone had guessed that Cheng Chumo would definitely have a heavy responsibility, no one expected that he would be the general manager in charge of Youzhou.

Where is Youzhou?

It is the heart of all Gu's territory.

For example, the world-famous Youzhou New City stands on the land of Youzhou. Nine out of ten offices under the Gu family are built in Youzhou New City.

After Gu Tianya founded the country, Youzhou New City became the capital of the vassal states. Since ancient times, the location of the capital has always been one level higher than other places.

And Cheng Chumo is the general manager in charge of this place.

The orthodox official position should be called: General Manager of the March in Youzhou. When you mount your horse, you can manage the army, and when you dismount, you can manage the people. If compared with the administrative duties in the Tang Dynasty, this is equivalent to the Grand Governor in charge of Guanlong.

You must know that there were only four Grand Governors in the entire Tang Dynasty, but the Grand Governor in charge of Guanlong was the highest person.

Who is it?

It was Li Xiaogong, the prince of Hejian County, who held the seal of military power.

If Cheng Chumo became the Grand Governor of Youzhou after the founding of the Gu family, his duties would be basically the same as those of Li Xiaogong's Grand Governor.
