He was still thinking about the match in his heart.
The eldest and second grandson were about the sa age as Gu Hui and Jinghe. As for their personalities, well, these two daughters were both headstrong. If they were to combine their strengths, they might be able to achieve the sa effect as the eldest son and the eldest daughter-in-law!
Gu Nian was about the sa age as his third and fourth grandsons, but the Xue family’s second grandson had obviously taken a fancy to him. So what if he had taken a fancy to him? they had not been engaged yet, so he could ask his grandsons to work harder.
He liked Gu Xin the most. This girl was quick-witted and knew how to win against other people’s warhorses with the Emperor and his father’s help. She was so mischievous and likable!
Sisi was still young. She was the most gentle and cute little girl. She was silly and obedient, just like her father, who was not scheming.
Aiyo, all the daughters of the Gu family are so good!
He looked much stronger than their little brat!
Even if old general Peng had such thoughts, he wouldn’t have discussed with Grandpa and Grandma Gu about forming an in-law for his children.
The Peng family’s motto was to find your own partner. As long as you were not engaged, it would be up to you if you could get the girl to co back.
Don’t even think about shalessly asking for your hand in marriage like an elder. Do your own thing.

After passing by several state capitals and walking for a month, it was already the end of November. The group finally arrived at the border between the CI state and the kun state.
The border between the two states was a vast forest.
There were few people here. It was noon, but there was no smoke.
Old general Peng was used to this. He asked everyone to bring out their pots and pans, then asked his personal attendant to bring the Gu family’s servants to the water source to collect water.
“We’ll reach the kun state after we cross this forest,” old general Peng explained to everyone. There was only one county in the kun state, which was at the border. There were also so small villages around the county. I’ve heard from my grandfather that kunzhou wasn’t like this in the past. During the change of dynasties, many clans went to the Zhou Dynasty and built their own small kingdoms. At that ti, Taizu had conquered the world and had many things to do. He didn’t have the energy to take back those small kingdoms. Kunzhou was a small country that had been taken back forty years ago. At that ti, a portion of the people in kun state had fled to the lange Kingdom, while another portion had gone to other states of the great Zhou. Very few of them stayed. In the past ten years, because kun city opened a trading area with the surrounding countries, the number of talents in kun state has slowly increased, but very few people have settled down.”
Gu shouxin laughed. no wonder the Emperor said that I have unlimited power here. Isn’t it? it’s a county town!
“Although it’s a County, it’s very troubleso to manage.” There was a trading post in the city where people from the lange Kingdom, the Jinnan Kingdom, the southern border, the divine Sand Kingdom, and the Yun nation lived. It’s all up to you. They would not follow the rules of great Zhou, so the best way was to suppress them with force. Moreover, they are all rchants, so you have to think of a way to control the spies to mix in. The emperor’s aning is that when you can return to the capital, it will be the ti for kun city to expand and for us to take down the Lang GE Kingdom! All the citizens of the lange Kingdom are soldiers, and each of them has extraordinary skills. Lord Gu, tell , how confident are you?”
Gu shouxin laughed and looked at his silly brother who only knew how to farm, his wife who knew how to do business, his elder daughter and nephew who were involved in construction, and his younger daughter who was holding a Jade bead. Well, he was very confident in expanding kun city.
“Elder Peng, how confident are you in taking down the lange Kingdom? within a few years?” he asked.
Old general Peng was stunned for a mont before he laughed.”Hahahaha!”
