Chapter 163 Striving for a Bond Between Ruler and Subject, Brotherhood
Pei Yu was the eldest grandson of Pei Chongyue, the Minister of Personnel.
In the Peach Blossom Spring, he was like a little shadow, following the emperor all the way!
There stood Young Master Pei, standing beside the dust-covered carriage.
With graceful movements, she calmly and slowly patted the dust off her cuffs.
Then she raised her hand and touched the priceless jade crown on her hair.
After confirming that he was upright and had a graceful demeanor, he slightly raised his chin and walked into the construction site.
Its posture was exactly like that of a proud green peacock spreading its tail feathers.
Gu Mingyue concealed the mockery in her eyes and stepped forward to meet her.
"This must be Steward Pei."
Pei Yu stopped in his tracks, cupped his hands respectfully, and performed an impeccable salute.
His gaze lingered for a moment on Gu Mingyue's bright, yet still somewhat immature face.
When we were tracking him in Peach Blossom Spring, we were too far away to see what Master Gu looked like.
Now that I've gotten closer, I'm surprised to find that she's such a young girl.
The Pei family and the Gu family are not exactly enemies, but they don't have much of a relationship either.
Ultimately, the two sides are on different sides.
The Pei family is an old aristocratic family, and they look down on the Gu family, who started from humble beginnings.
Therefore, Pei Yu always carried an inescapable air of nobility and arrogance in every gesture.
"I have been ordered to come here to inspect the progress of the project and to discuss the subsequent tax accounts."
He raised his chin and glanced sideways at Gu Mingyue.
"You little girl...you're Master Gu?"
Gu Mingyue raised an eyebrow slightly.
"Exactly."
The Pei family, a centuries-old noble family with high aspirations, actually sent their eldest grandson to manage taxation in this logistics park full of the smell of mud.
What are they plotting?
The Pei family naturally went to great lengths to get Pei Yu to the Pujitang construction site.
Pei Yu had people specifically inquire about it everywhere.
Upon learning that "His Majesty" had been frequently visiting the logistics park recently, and that the Ministry of Revenue needed to send a senior official to coordinate the work, they learned that His Majesty was frequently visiting the logistics park.
Isn't this a golden opportunity?!
That's why he insisted on working at the construction site, as his grandfather had suggested.
Hehe, as long as I "accidentally" get close to the emperor, how far am I from rising to prominence?
Pei Yu straightened his chest, full of confidence.
He can defeat the fox spirit if given a chance.
Becoming the emperor's good brother is just around the corner!
Gu Mingyue looked at Pei Yu's dreamy eyes, which seemed to have the words "become a marquis and prime minister" engraved on his forehead.
She couldn't help but purse her red lips, suppressing the mischievous smile in her eyes.
"Now that you're here, let's take a look at the construction site first."
She turned to the side and made a "please" gesture in perfect cooperation.
The tone was meaningful.
"Lord Pei, you must be tired from this inspection. This way, please."
The group walked over the construction debris scattered all over the ground toward the central construction site.
Pei Yu proudly puffed out her chest.
He strives to maintain the elegant and untainted gait of a scion of a prominent family on the filthy construction site.
He glanced at the massive construction site out of the corner of his eye.
Those gray-white walls were exceptionally hard.
Pei Yu felt that he had considerable knowledge.
But in all his years, he had never seen such a strange architectural style!
The houses built by the Gu family are truly impressive!
No wonder she caught His Majesty's eye!
However, it wasn't the cement wall that shocked him.
Pei Yu suddenly stopped in her tracks.
His gaze was fixed on a figure in the distance.
His pupils suddenly dilated, and the corners of his mouth gradually curled up.
Right in the middle of the construction site.
A young man dressed in a moon-white brocade robe was standing up from the pile of dirt without any regard for his image.
The man stretched lazily and casually patted the thick layer of dust off his knees.
The once valuable brocade robe was now stained with several conspicuous mud streaks.
The wide sleeves were rolled up haphazardly above the elbows, revealing a section of fair but muscular forearms.
Pei Yu's eyes lit up with surprise!
My heart started pounding wildly!
That person...
Isn't this the "Your Majesty" who shared hardships with him in the dilapidated temple outside Peach Blossom Spring?
Pei Yu's breathing was erratic, and she was so excited that even her fingertips were trembling slightly.
Heavens above! Earth below!
It was Pei Yufei's turn to rise to prominence and have the opportunity to appear before the emperor...
finally reached!
It's truly a blessing from heaven for the Pei family!
An emperor traveling incognito.
I ran into him again on this construction site full of muddy workers!
Did they naturally develop a bond of brotherhood as ruler and subject?
Pei Yu quickly took a deep breath.
She hurriedly and casually straightened her clothes and hair ornament.
She carefully smoothed a stray strand of hair behind her ear.
Make sure you exude the exceptional qualities of a "pillar of society" from head to toe.
Gu Mingyue kept her arms crossed in front of her chest.
She glanced at Pei Yu sideways.
The man's eyes were fixed on her brother.
The expressions on their faces were ever-changing.
She had heard her brother vividly describe Pei Yu's heroic deeds in the dilapidated temple outside Peach Blossom Spring.
It is said that the handsome young master Pei Yu in front of her is someone who protects her brother.
He forcefully slammed a one-hundred-tael silver note hard into the chest of the current emperor.
A true hero dares to face a bleak life and confront the dripping blood.
Pei Yu is this particular person.
Gu Mingyue always loved watching the drama unfold.
Her eyes flashed.
"Lord Pei, let's go over there and take a look at the ingredients."
She deliberately led Pei Yu in the direction of her brother.
Pei Yu was somewhat excited.
They couldn't wait.
He felt a dryness in his throat and nervously swallowed twice.
I took two deep breaths.
He strode quickly toward the figure in the distance.
Gu Mingli was squatting on the edge of the foundation of the third row of warehouses.
Holding a wooden stick in his hand, he focused intently on poking at the freshly poured wall, carefully checking for air bubbles inside.
Yi Shi squatted down next to him, picked up a stick, and started poking around aimlessly, just like him.
"Young master, is it really true that this wall won't collapse?"
Yi Shi still finds it unbelievable.
"It won't collapse."
Gu Mingli didn't even look up, his tone radiating absolute confidence.
"It's no exaggeration to say that this stuff, once completely dried, is even sturdier than the walls of the capital."
Yi Shi's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Such an amazing construction method is unprecedented. Could it be that Young Master intends to surprise His Majesty?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Mingli couldn't help but chuckle and pat the dust off his hands.
"If they can build city walls in the future, that would be a pleasant surprise."
Yi Shi nodded.
While Gu Mingli got up to check something else, he immediately took out a small piece of paper from his pocket.
[The young master has secretly prepared a little surprise for His Majesty!]
An inconspicuous carrier pigeon flapped its wings and soared into the sky.
"Young Master~~~~~~~~"
Gu Mingli heard a strange scream.
Curious, I turned around.
A flamboyant young official jogged toward him.
"Oh my, young master! What a coincidence!"
"You...you're here too, observing the people's conditions?"
Who is this person?
Gu Mingli was somewhat bewildered.
The old craftsmen next to them were still discussing the project.
"Lord Gu, do you think this fabric is diluted with too much water...?"
Gu Mingli turned back again.
We continued to discuss the material ratios with the veteran craftsman.
Pei Yu, who had just run up to him, was left bewildered.
The dignified and affectionate smile that had been on her face froze instantly.
and many more!
What do you care about, Sir? !
