My Wife is the World’s Greatest Divine Martial General – Chapter 1062

Chapter 25 Hey hey

Empress Bai Qian did not keep people behind to talk extensively. Instead, she felt very distressed about the hardships of the generals who had traveled far and wide. After giving appropriate rewards, she let the civil and military officials go back to rest.

Just as Gu Yu had predicted, Empress Bai Qian’s private treasury was emptied by him.

Therefore, the rewards given to him were also superficial titles and fame. Gu Yu smiled and refused them, choosing the Imperial bestowed gold bars that could kill people.

Even though he already had quite a lot in his spatial dimension, real gold and silver were much better than entering the government as an official.

Empress Bai Qian was too greedy. She wanted to kill two birds with one stone. Without giving rewards, she also wanted to tie him down as an official… Hmph, was he, Gu Yu, someone who would easily yield!

Even if all the silver in Linfeng Kingdom was presented to him, he would… consider it for a moment, and see if he should refuse.

However, even if Gu Yu was tempted, Bai Qian would not really do that.

After all, compared to the national wealth, Gu Yu did not seem that important.

Money makes the world go round. One can have whatever talent one wants. Although it would not be as astonishing as Gu Yu, a remarkable man, they would be capable and practical.

Of course, it was also because Gu Mengyao had been successfully lured to their side that Empress Bai Qian was not worried about Gu Yu betraying them.

She had long since figured out Gu Yu’s weakness. As long as Gu Mengyao was kept by her side, he would not be able to run far. Instead, he would help her at critical moments.

Just like the quick end to this war, it was the explosives made by Gu Yu that played a big role.

After Bai Qian’s persistent probing, she found that Gu Yu was like a stubborn stone, and could not be drawn into the court as an official. From then on, she truly gave up hope.

As for the lost gold bars, they were all from the national treasury, so Bai Qian did not feel any heartache.

The national treasury had a lot stored, and if she didn’t give out the previous ones, how could she make new Imperial bestowed gold bars~

Although Gu Yu really wanted to ask for details about the death of the Witch Priest, he had just refused the invitation to enter the government. Thinking that Bai Qian would not honestly tell him, he did not stay in the Imperial Palace anymore. Instead, he returned home with Gu Mengyao.

“Brother-in-law, did the explosives really scare the enemies into fleeing? I was worried about you encountering danger on the battlefield before, but it turned out to be a relaxed victory!”

As soon as they entered the Gu Residence main gate, Gu Qingheng, who had been waiting at the main entrance long ago, rushed forward and chattered excitedly at Gu Yu.

Even though Gu Qingheng had become the youngest official in the court, he still maintained his original personality in front of his relatives.

However, Gu Yu had seen his younger brother-in-law act sophisticated in front of many scholars before. His melancholic eyebrows and eyes, he had to admit, looked quite convincing.

“You’ve seen the power of explosives before, haven’t you? Remember how you were so scared your legs trembled? Not to mention others seeing the effect of explosives for the first time. It’s already good that they weren’t scared enough to wet their pants.”

Upon meeting Gu Qingheng, Gu Yu and Gu Mengyao did not stop. Instead, the three of them walked together towards the backyard to meet up with others.

The maids and servants they met along the way all had happy smiles, as if happiness was written on their faces.

The army returned to the capital, meaning the young lady and the son-in-law of the mansion were going home. The master gave an extra six months’ wages and a few days’ holiday…

Thus, under the influence of silver, Gu Qing directly rose to the first position in the hearts of many maids and servants. Even the most respected Empress of Linfeng Kingdom had to rank second.

The happiness of common people is so simple!

When Gu Yu and the two arrived at Gu Qing’s study, after dismissing the attendant servant, Gu Yu directly brought the two children out of the spatial dimension, letting their uncle Gu Qingheng meet his nephew and niece. He and Gu Mengyao chatted with their father-in-law.

Although they had not been away for long, Gu Qing was very curious about what had happened on the battlefield.

At the time, for the sake of the confidentiality of the explosives, Gu Yu had not even told his father-in-law. Therefore, Gu Qing knew nothing about the explosives.

Some well-informed people in the capital, after learning that the explosives were made by Gu Yu, also came to the Gu Residence pretending to inquire for information, wanting to probe Gu Qing’s intentions and understand the details.

Even though they knew they wouldn’t get the formula for the explosives, curiosity and gossip were human nature, making them want to know the story behind it.

However, the result was predictable.

Gu Qing, who was equally bewildered, also became curious about the explosives, and eagerly awaited his daughter and son-in-law to return to explain them to him.

However, he did not expect his son Gu Qingheng to return in advance and briefly explain one or two things to Gu Qing. As for the details, they had to be learned from Gu Yu.

“Father-in-law, regarding the explosives…”

Gu Qing’s curiosity was within Gu Yu’s expectations. Now that the explosives had appeared, there was no need to keep it a secret.

Although Gu Yu had also considered letting other members of the Gu family know at the time, after careful consideration, if the matter of the explosives was leaked in advance, the effect would be greatly reduced. Therefore, it was better to keep it secret for now.

Gu Mengyao also knew Gu Yu’s decision and had no objections. Instead, she was very supportive.

After all, regarding the war, Gu Mengyao did not want any unexpected trouble.

Some things, the fewer people who knew, the better.

“That’s enough, you don’t need to say more. I know the pros and cons! Although you are the Gu family’s son-in-law, this matter is of great importance, and you must be extra careful… You don’t need to tell me more now. If someone were to get me drunk in the future, who knows when I might be tricked into revealing something. However, I am curious about some things, and I need you to answer one or two.”

Gu Qing was not a grumpy old man. Having served in the court for many years, he knew the importance of secrecy. Therefore, he did not blame Gu Yu and Gu Mengyao. Instead, he directly interrupted Gu Yu.

However, even so, some harmless little news could not be missed… It would be nice to brag to old friends later.

Heh heh, which son-in-law is so awesome that he can directly control the outcome of the war!

And his daughter was also good. Her official position was now higher than his, and her future achievements were limitless.

Wait.

Well, under the circumstances, the position of Great General was already very high. Anything higher would be to directly grant the title of King of a different surname… Thinking about it this way, it was better to continue serving as Great General, to avoid causing Empress Bai Qian’s suspicion.

He did not seek high official positions for his children, only for their lifelong peace and smoothness.

Now that his daughter’s family was fine, the marriage of his eldest son Gu Qingheng needed to be put on the agenda. He needed to finalize the marriage between him and Tang Lian quickly.

Being able to marry the daughter-in-law into the family as soon as possible would also calm Gu Qingheng’s heart.

If he could pay less attention to other gossip, that would be even better… However, Gu Qing felt that this possibility was not high.

Alas, this son of his…
