Chapter 548
A graceful figure was taken in by a maid.
Nan Yan sat at the table, a little solemn, and looked at the famous Henan scholar with a little curiosity. Speaking of which, he was his uncle.
In fact, they have never met each other before.
This was the first time she had seen Gu Tingqiu. Like his sister, he had a very good appearance. Although he was over middle age, he had an elegant temperament and handsome appearance, giving people a very shrewd feeling.
Especially, his simple long clothes looked unlucky, but he exuded a faint elegance.
This is the style of a famous scholar.
He walked in and bowed respectfully to Nan Yan: "Master of the Si."
Nan Yan also hurriedly got up, but when he was calling him, he hesitated for a moment.
But she thought about it and said softly: "Uncle is so polite."
Hearing her call this, Gu Tingqiu showed a smile on his face.
Nan Yan raised his hand to the stool on the other side: "Please sit down."
Gu Tingqiu walked over and sat down.
As soon as the two met, they still didn't know what to say, because although they were relatives, they didn't know at all. This was the first time Gu Tingqiu saw this, who was bullied since childhood, and now in the palace, he is already the niece of a big celebrity in front of the emperor.
He looked soft and weak, not very wise, but his eyes were full of abilities that ordinary women did not have.
Compared to that niece, Si Nanyan is really much stronger.
He said, "I'm taking a bit of a presumptuous visit."
Nan Yan personally brewed a cup of tea for him and delivered it to the table, saying, "I wonder if my uncle is coming to see me, is there anything wrong?"
"It's nothing. I heard that my niece followed the emperor to guard Peiping this time and went through many hardships. I don't know, but it's still safe."
"Thank you, my uncle, for being worried, I'm fine."
"Are you going all the way?"
"It's okay, it's harder to cross the Yellow River."
“It’s been frozen early this year…”
...
The two of them said something that was okay.
Nan Yan didn't even have to come from Gu Tingqiu's words, just from his coming to see him, that even if there was no purpose, he had a certain reason for meeting this time.
So, she was not in a hurry and just chatted with Gu Tingqiu slowly.
After chatting for a while, Gu Tingqiu seemed to feel that Si Nanyan was chatting according to his words, not asking why he was here.
It seems that this niece is smart and patient.
He looked up at the gorgeous house and said with a smile: "This villa is a resting place specially built by Duke Cheng for the emperor."
Nanyan nodded: "Yes."
"We have also heard that Duke Cheng used a lot of manpower and material resources to build this villa, and also collected these rare treasures everywhere."
"Yeah?"
"It's a pity that it may not be able to please the emperor."
Nan Yan raised his eyebrows slightly: "Oh? How can my uncle see it?"
Gu Tingqiu smiled and said, "The emperor traveled deep into the army and his military life has always been very difficult. I heard that the cost in the palace is also very simple. It can be seen that the emperor does not like a luxurious life."
“…”
"I'm afraid the emperor doesn't like this villa or this house."
“…”
Nan Yan looked at Gu Tingqiu for a while, and smiled faintly, "Uncle's keen eyes."
"What a wise eye, it's just that I heard a lot of news."
"Then, have my uncle heard any interesting news?"
Gu Tingqiu looked at her with a smile and said, "I heard that the female official is very favored by the emperor."
Nan Yan smiled faintly and said, "It's just a false news."
Gu Tingqiu glanced at her and smiled and said, "No matter whether it is a false news or not, it is said that a single tree cannot make a forest. The female official should also need some help and install some good things."
“…”
Nanyan looked at him.
Gu Tingqiu took out a small purse from his sleeve and placed it on the table, and pushed it in front of her.
Nan Yan didn't go to pick her up, but just took a look: "What's the point of uncle?"
Gu Tingqiu smiled and said, "Please don't misunderstand that female official. This is just some subsidies given to you by your family. You have to deal with people and work in the palace. The female official must not be penniless."
Nanyandao: "No reward is received without merit."
Gu Tingqiu said: "This is what outsiders say."
“…”
"The merits of one's own family are only based on the strength of one's own family."
“…”
Nan Yan didn't say anything anymore, but just looked at him quietly for a while.
Then he said, "When I left Jinling, I received a silver note of 100 taels from my home. Now it seems that it should be given by my uncle."
Gu Tingqiu smiled and said, "I know that it can't be hidden from the female official."
“…”
"But, there is no need to tell who it is."
“…”
"The female official only treats it as a subsidy for her family."
“…”
Nan Yan looked at him and smiled slightly.
Gu Tingqiu had already made it clear. He was indeed helping his family reconcile with her.
As the saying goes, it is difficult to make a forest alone. She is alone in the palace. Even if she is a concubine, it is actually difficult to walk on the road.
That's why Zhu Feng said that after he went back, he would put her family in the court as an official.
In fact, this is the same.
Nan Yan picked up the purse and felt that there were a lot of things inside. She said with a smile: "Come for profit, is it your family?"
Gu Tingqiu looked at her for a while and said seriously: "Family, mutual benefit."
“…”
This sentence made Nan Yan silent for a moment.
Indeed, with this idea, it is too difficult for a person to survive in isolation. Many large families and clans live together. In addition to the blood-related relationship, the big reason is that they can benefit each other.
After all, if she is a concubine, if there are trustworthy people in the court, it will be beneficial for her to survive in the harem.
However, the premise is
Trusted people.
Nan Yan thought quietly for a long time, then smiled faintly and said, "I can accept this."
“…”
"But whether mutual benefit depends on whether there is mutually beneficial capital."
“…”
"After all, the emperor must use it."
Gu Tingqiu felt relieved when he heard her words.
He smiled and said, "This is natural."
After a few more gossips, they naturally couldn't speak too much. After all, this time, it was just a preliminary alliance. Soon, Gu Tingqiu said goodbye.
When he left, Nan Yan picked up the purse, opened it and saw it, and was startled.
Five silver notes, one thousand taels each.
A total of five thousand taels of silver!
All of a sudden, from penniless to having a huge sum of money, she became a little fluttering.
He looked up at the decorations in the room.
How much can you smash!
This uncle is such a big deal!
