The Daughter of the General's Gate: The Genius Little Meng Fei

Chapter 112 Tough Attitude
"Eunuch Li, I don't know why the Empress Dowager called me into the palace?" Gu Qianli casually stuffed a banknote into Eunuch Li's hand, his eyes lit up, and he put the banknote into his sleeve.

"Miss Feiyan has entered the palace today, and she probably ordered a few words behind the Empress Dowager. Miss Gu should be careful when answering, so as not to offend the Empress Dowager's bottom line." He didn't dare to offend Gu Qianli, This is the future queen, and besides, she is so generous that it is a hundred taels of silver.

"Oh, that's how it is." Gu Qianli smiled unconsciously. It seems that sending a killer to assassinate him will not be successful, and he wants to use the hands of the Empress Dowager to make trouble. Unfortunately, this time it is destined not to do what she wants, as long as she reveals the resources in her hands a little bit She didn't believe that the Empress Dowager, a person who could create wealth so large that it exceeded the revenue of the national treasury, would choose to offend her.

She swaggered into the palace to meet the Empress Dowager.

"My daughter Gu Qianli pays homage to the Empress Dowager, and the Empress Dowager is blessed." Gu Qianli still respects the Empress Dowager, and she can understand her wholeheartedness in planning for Li Yan's country. With Yan's background and ability, he has the confidence to speak.

Seeing her neither humble nor overbearing, the Empress Dowager still admired her a little bit, as expected, she still had the bearing of a general's prostitute.

"Stay flat." The Empress Dowager said indifferently, without saying anything else.

Gu Qianli got up and stood with his hands folded, waiting quietly.

"I heard that you are very busy now, and you often go out for several months without returning." The Empress Dowager paused: "As a woman who has not left the cabinet, and is also the future master of the Eastern Palace, don't you feel that your behavior is detrimental to public morals? Is it? And I heard that you uttered wild words and asked the emperor not to take concubines. Since ancient times, where have you learned the three obediences and four virtues of women? It seems that the Ai family needs to send some nuns to your house to teach you well. gone."

"Empress Dowager, may I ask my daughter-in-law?" Gu Qianli heard the empress dowager's accusation, but did not feel guilty at all.

"Say." The Empress Dowager didn't know what she could say to defend herself.

"Back then when the Supreme Emperor started an incident, the Great Empress Dowager, as a woman, never gave way to a man. She followed the Supreme Emperor all the way to fight north and south, and contributed money and effort. It can be said that with the full support of you and your family, the Supreme Empress was able to successfully build a country and have This is a great country today, and what the minister said is right." Gu Qianli's words could not help but arouse the Empress Dowager's memories of the past, thinking that she followed the emperor all the way through wind and rain.

She nodded in agreement.

Gu Qianli went on to say: "Although the country is strong now, the new emperor's enthroned regime is still unstable. In addition, the rise of troops in Beiping has caused unrest in the government and the public. I don't want to be just a boudoir girl who can only embroider, and I often think about what to do. Way to stand on the side of the emperor to solve his problems and fight side by side with him, so the courtiers and daughters are running around day and night, all worrying about the future of the Ming Dynasty, so that the emperor has no worries. The empress dowager feels that in the current situation, the emperor's side Is it better to have a woman with red sleeves or a woman who can help him hold up half the sky?"

The Empress Dowager couldn't help sneering: "You speak beautifully, but you are a weak woman, and you don't have the help of your mother. How can you hold up half the sky of the Ming Dynasty? There must be a limit to your exaggeration. If your father and brother say this sentence here Otherwise, the Ai family wouldn't find it so funny."

"What if I have the financial and material resources to buy this half of the sky? As long as I want, I can now buy a street in the most prosperous area of ​​the capital." Gu Qianli smiled slightly.

"Speak wild words!" Taihuang Taihuang couldn't help laughing.

"I can still open a restaurant that is making a lot of money in the most prosperous areas of the Ming Dynasty within half a year."

"The more you talk, the more outrageous it is." The Empress Dowager was dumbfounded. This girl must be a madman. She said what she said, even Li Yan, the king of a country, would not dare to boast such a big word.

"The courtier's daughter has no lies, if there is even a little bit of falsehood, let the empress dowager dispose of it."

Gu Qianli took out a copy of the information in his hand and handed it to the Empress Dowager, and made a heavy oath.

"Your servant can also swear that if the emperor will only marry me in this life, I will use all the strength in my hand to help him unify the Central Plains. If one day he changes his mind and loses to me, I will never stop him from the Sangong and Liuyuan. I just beg him to let me go, and it will be irrelevant from now on. But I have no concubine in the harem for a day in the palace."

Looking at the information in her hand, the Empress Dowager couldn't help being horrified, and after listening to what she said, she fell into deep thought.

As a woman, who is willing to share her husband with others, even if she was a queen back then, looking at Yingying and Yanyan beside the emperor, she would feel really comfortable in her heart, but she never thought of refusing, she always felt that a man has three wives and four wives A concubine is a matter of course, I never thought that a little girl would make such a request.

But with these things in her hands, she is really qualified to make such a request, either accept her or kill her, otherwise if she is with someone else, it will definitely be a disaster that can overthrow the dynasty.It is naturally impossible to kill her, so the only way to do it now is to agree to her request first.

In the end, Gu Qianli came out of the palace unscathed. Wang Feiyan hurried into the palace to ask the Empress Dowager without knowing what was going on, but she sent her back because she was unwell and didn't want to see guests.

In the following days, a restaurant suddenly appeared on the busiest street in the capital. This restaurant is divided into five floors. , spend a dozen taels of silver to be able to eat well.The second floor is an ordinary teahouse with private rooms, which are suitable for ordinary consumption levels.

The third floor is a luxury box for consumption with a silver card. You need to apply for a silver card at a restaurant first, deposit a certain amount of silver taels, and spend an average amount each time to enter.The fourth floor is for gold card users, who have certain requirements on the identity, status and even character of the guests.
