Gu Hanmo told the whole story of what happened in Yushufang today, and Gu Jiuge also fell silent.
After a while he said: "Tian Yunpo has a strange temperament towards this person, and he seems to have no good feelings towards us brothers. Today he did not hesitate to offend Li Ming in order to get ahead, do you think he is trying to curry favor with Yu Fu?"
"Second brother always has many women around him, and now he is married to his second sister-in-law. I don't understand, but second brother should understand what Tian Yunpo means?"
Gu Hanmo has never had much contact with any one of them, and the one who has the most is Yufu, and then Su Yunyan, Yin Jiyi and so on.
It is said to be in frequent contact, but it is just that we often see each other in the mansion and talk a few words a day.
Because of this, even Gu Hanmo noticed Tian Yunpo's uniqueness to Yufu, which made people have to think deeply.
When Gu Jiuge was reminded by his words, he couldn't help thinking that when Tian Yunpo came to find Yufu in the morning, when would it be his turn, a grand master, to do this kind of thing that an eunuch in the inner palace or the Imperial Forest Army Commander should do
There was a turmoil in his heart, but he finally calmed down, "Could it be that you are overthinking? Tian Yunpo is a minister, and Yufu is a king. Maybe he is just out of the mentality of a minister to share the worries and problems of the monarch. Although he doesn't like us I still chose you as the champion of martial arts."
Gu Hanmo said: "Yufu naturally prefers me in her heart. I understand that if she chooses Liming, it is to appease the Li clan and the refugees from Dongling. Tian Yunpo has always been rude, and the second brother thinks that if he is so considerate Fu's face, would Yufu still make things difficult for him before he ascended the throne?"
Gu Hanmo suddenly thought of something, and said again: "What's more, when we entered the palace together in the morning, I was waiting outside the door for Yu to help them. I waited for a long time and didn't see them coming out, so I wanted to go in to greet them, not wanting to just see Tian Yunpo What to say next to Yu Fu's ear. Is this the etiquette that monarchs and ministers should have?"
"Is there anything else like this?"
Gu Jiuge couldn't help being surprised, he didn't enter the palace with Yu Fu and the others in the morning, and he didn't see this.
Gu Hanmo sighed, thinking that Gu Shubai was still preparing for a battle at the border and didn't know when he would be back, he felt uncomfortable for a while.
He was worried that when Gu Shubai was not around, someone wanted to take advantage of it.
Gu Jiuge said: "Even if Tian Yunpo has any thoughts about Yufu, we can all see Yufu's affection for elder brother. At a young age, she braved the wind and snow to accompany me to Changzhou to save elder brother , Eldest brother was taken to Xikun by Kun Wu, and she also went to bring elder brother back in person, I don't believe that Yufu will empathize with others."
This is also reasonable.
They couldn't trust Tian Yunpo, so they had to trust Yufu's wholehearted intentions anyway.
Gu Hanmo said: "Then... do you want to tell Big Brother about this?"
"What can I do if I tell my elder brother? Do you want him to accompany Yufu all the time when he comes back from the border, lest Tian Yunpo sneak in? If this is the way Tian Yunpo wants it! Eldest brother is a general, not just for talking and laughing." Man, his value can only be reflected on the battlefield."
Gu Jiuge denied his idea, "Don't write to Big Brother privately to tell him about this, if there is chaos in Dong Ling, Big Brother wants to lead the army to fight, you will only disturb his mind."
Gu Hanmo hurriedly said: "I understand that the safety of the elder brother is the most important thing, I just keep this matter in my stomach."
Gu Jiuge nodded, "Brother is not here, let's just pay more attention to observe. Don't let that Tian Yunpo take the opportunity to get close to Yufu, he is young but very cunning, we must not let him drive Yufu and brother apart! "
Gu Hanmo was only thinking about Tian Yunpo, but he didn't know that his own problem was right in front of him.
Early the next morning, the mansion became noisy.
Gu Hanmo didn't sleep well because he was thinking about things late last night, so he just wanted to catch up on a little sleep today while he had nothing to do, and didn't want to be woken up early in the morning.
"What's the noise outside?"
The servant came in with a washbasin, and said with a smile, "Third Young Master is overjoyed! It's the relatives and officials from the capital who came to congratulate Third Young Master High School Martial Arts Champion. Young Master wash up and go out to meet guests!"
Gu Hanmo couldn't help shivering.
When he was in Guhou's mansion, he didn't like to deal with guests the least. Fortunately, Guhou's mansion seldom hosts banquets. Even during the Dragon Boat Festival, birthday banquets and other days, there are always Gu Shubai and Gu Jiuge in front. Hospitality.
He probably just showed his face, and then went back to practice swords by himself.
Today these people are here for him, this time others can't receive him for him, he feels dizzy when he thinks of this.
"Why don't you just say that I'm not feeling well, and let the second brother find a way to help me back!"
"uncomfortable?"
The boy looked at Gu Hanmo in surprise, wondering: "Third Young Master, you have to be believed if you say you are uncomfortable! Two days ago, you were fighting all the heroes in the martial arts arena, and now you say you are uncomfortable? What's more, if you say It’s uncomfortable, I’m afraid those ladies and ladies will come to your house to visit you in person.”
"What madam?"
Gu Hanmo asked suspiciously: "Didn't you say that relatives and officials in Beijing came to congratulate me?"
The boy smiled ambiguously, "Yes, but most of them are from the female family members of these families. I heard that the third son is 20 years old this year and he is not yet married. Those wives and ladies are trying their best to catch up!"
Only then did Gu Hanmo understand what it meant, and a suspicious blush appeared on his usually indifferent face.
It took him a long time to hold back a sentence, "This Beili's folk style is too open. How could there be a lady who came to see her in person..."
The young servant knew that his third son couldn't bear to be teased, so he stuck out his tongue, thinking that if you don't get up again, there will be more open ones in a while!
Gu Hanmo was wearing a brand-new royal blue straight gown, looked down at himself, and couldn't help frowning secretly.
He would only dress so brightly during festivals and festivities. He usually wears simple clothes that are convenient for sword practice, but today he is not used to dressing up like this suddenly.
"Why don't you dress like this for the rest of the year? Change it up and change it up."
"Third Young Master, you can't change it!"
The servant hurriedly stopped him, "Although it's not a festival, today is a good day for the third son. It's such a big prize to win the champion of martial arts. What's wrong with dressing brightly? If you don't go out dressed better, those ladies and gentlemen Didn't you underestimate our Gu family? By the way, even His Majesty also underestimated him, thinking that His Majesty was so mean to his brother with a different surname that he didn't even give him good clothes!"
The last sentence convinced Gu Hanmo, he had no choice but to put down his hands to unbutton, and walked honestly towards the front hall.
The front hall was already full of people, and there were still guests visiting one after another.
Yin Jiqian and Su Yunyan were entertaining at the front, seeing that they couldn't sit down, they ordered people to set up tables, chairs and screens in the courtyard, so that everyone could have a place to sit.
Before Gu Hanmo stepped into the courtyard, he smelled a mixed aroma of makeup and powder.
This smell was unfamiliar to him, even a little frightening, making him at a loss what to do.
He hesitated, Su Yunyan spotted him sharply, "Third brother, come in quickly!"
Like a stone shaking up a thousand waves, Su Yunyan said a word, and everyone stood up at the same time, looking towards the direction outside the courtyard.
"The third son is here?"
"Let me see!"
I saw a young man in a sapphire blue cloud-patterned straight gown walking in. His figure was tall and well-proportioned, his steps were steady and brisk, and his thin lips slightly pursed showed a trace of fortitude.
He seemed very unaccustomed to such occasions. He nodded slightly at the crowd, and the smile on the corner of his mouth seemed a little stiff.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please be polite."
After that one sentence, he didn't know what else to say.
Originally thought that these wives and ladies would be very disappointed seeing his inarticulate appearance, and they seemed to be more satisfied not wanting the female relatives in the seat to see him.
It is rumored that this new top martial arts scholar is the third son of Master Gu Hou of Dongling, and he was appointed General Huwei when he was in Dongling.
His brothers are now military generals in the Beili Dynasty, and he was not granted the title of Jin because of his late arrival. His Majesty wanted to give him a third-rank military position, but he refused, preferring to take part in the martial arts by himself.
Sure enough, his martial arts are obvious to all during the competition, and he is a well-deserved champion of martial arts!
This caused people to put many mysterious adjectives on him. He has outstanding talents if he does not admire glory and wealth, and does not attach himself to his family...
For such a person, it is inevitable that people will guess that he is proud of his talent, or has a violent and bloodthirsty temperament, or is ugly, or likes to linger around flowers and so on.
When I saw him today, I knew that the handsomeness of the third son was comparable to that of his elder brother and younger brother, and seeing the slightly restrained yet modest and polite appearance of the female family members, it can be seen that he is not arrogant or romantic.
At a glance, Yin Jiyu saw the satisfied smiles of the ladies in the seat, and the slightly blushing cheeks of the ladies looking at Gu Hanmo's appearance.
She quietly pulled Gu Hanmo aside and said, "Third brother, these are all relatives and prominent families in the Beili Dynasty, and they are here to congratulate you today. I think you can see that not only congratulations, but also some people who look at you Meaning. You don’t have to be nervous and take your time, tell the second sister-in-law whoever you like.”
Gu Hanmo was a little restrained, "Second sister-in-law, my father once said that we should choose the woman we like before we get married. Seeing each other like this... I'm afraid it's not good?"
Yin Ji hurriedly said: "I know what my father said! The second sister-in-law didn't force you to choose a young lady to marry you, and she didn't force you to choose one of these young ladies. She just wanted to take this opportunity to let you know more about the young ladies in Beijing. Ladies and gentlemen. You are usually not practicing martial arts or being with men, how can you have the opportunity to meet the woman you like? Today is just acquaintance, and there is absolutely no meaning of forcing you, don't worry."
Gu Hanmo heaved a sigh of relief. He was afraid that Yin Jixie would use the words of his elder sister-in-law to force him to marry him. Since they just know each other... then let's get to know each other.
Su Yunyan was watching from the side, seeing that his complexion had slowed down, and hurriedly asked: "What kind of woman does third brother like? Is it beautiful or dignified, lively or quiet, good at poetry or martial arts?"
After she asked a series of questions, Gu Hanmo was at a loss. He didn't even know a few girls, so how could he know what kind of girl he liked
It took me a long time to hold back a sentence, "He is kind-hearted and decent."
Su Yunyan: "..."
This condition is not like looking for a wife, but rather like looking for a brother.
Yin Jixie covered her mouth with a chuckle, turned her head and said to those relatives and nobles: "Although our mansion is newly built, every plant and every tree is a gift from His Majesty, which is quite interesting. Why don't I lead the ladies Go to the garden and let the third brother entertain the ladies?"
She clearly wanted Gu Hanmo to spend some time alone with those ladies.
The folk customs of Beili are open, and it is common for unmarried men and women to get along together. Those wives are not only not worried, but are also very happy.
"Okay, I have long heard that Gu's mansion was bestowed by His Majesty, and even the plaque at the door was inscribed by His Majesty's own pen. We have only seen the scenery in this mansion for a dozen or so times and then we linger on it. Mrs. Lao will take us for a stroll. visit."
All the wives got up, and Yin Jixie smiled and led the way, "This way, please."
Su Yunyan didn't follow them, but stayed in the front courtyard, just in case Gu Hanmo was awkward with his words, she just helped out.
At the same time, as the second place in the new science and military rankings, there are quite a few people in the Li Mansion congratulating him.
Liming's family is very rich, not to mention his courage to move from Dongling to Beili with more than a hundred members of his clan, but also to say that the court regards his Li clan so highly, this Liming has also become a very popular figure.
After all, he was a merchant, and he was able to deal with the female relatives who came here with the intention of seeing each other. He sent them away after saying that he had already made a baby marriage in Dongling.
"I don't know, when did my brother make a baby kiss?"
He was resting on the recliner with a sore face from a smile when he heard a girl's laughter from outside the window, and a baby-faced girl in pink clothes about fifteen or sixteen years old came in from the door.
It was Liming's younger sister, Li Tu.
Li Ming patted his chest in fright, "I smelled the fragrance of makeup on your body, and thought there was another lady who had not been dismissed, so I was shocked."
Li Tu laughed loudly, "Why did brother lie to them?"
Li Ming said solemnly: "A good man has ambitions all over the world. I just got the second place in the exam. It is the time to make achievements. How can I be distracted from marrying a wife at this time? Since I brought the old and the young from Dongling, I have to let They live a better life and earn a better future for our Li clan!"
Li Tu stuck out his tongue, thinking that his elder brother seemed to be serious, so he said casually: "After my elder brother has made great achievements, I want to marry a wife, but I find that I can't marry a wife because of my lies today. No more sister-in-law?"
"Silly girl, I should ask you to make more plans and meet customers, so that you will understand what is called worldly sophistication. Don't worry, there will only be more people coming to propose marriage on that day than today, not less than today."
Li Ming shook his head slightly, thinking that he was too capable to protect this younger sister since he was a child, but instead made her ignorant and didn't know anything, and he didn't know whether it was a blessing or a curse.
He can only work harder to earn a better future, so that his sister will marry a good man in the future without being bullied, and live a life of ignorance and ignorance for the rest of his life.
Now he already has an excellent candidate, but he doesn't know the other party...
"broken!"
Li Ming jumped up from the recliner all of a sudden, "It's bad, it's bad, I have so many acquaintances in my second place family, wouldn't there be more in the number one family?"
"Tutu, hurry up and change your clothes, brother will take you somewhere!"
He dragged Li Tu out, Li Tu was full of displeasure, "What is brother doing, where are you going? I don't want to go out. Mother Xue made tremella lily soup for me and is waiting for me..."
When Liming brought the newly dressed Li Tu to Gu's mansion, he saw a BMW car parked outside the gate of Gu's mansion, and felt regretful in his heart.
He should have thought of it a long time ago, if those female relatives hadn't disturbed his mind when they came to the mansion, he should have thought of it long ago!
Well now, if Gu Hanmo took a fancy to another girl, wouldn't he be delaying his precious sister's life
"Brother, what did you bring me here for?"
Li Tu raised her eyes to look at the majestic mansion, the word Gu Fu on the vermilion lacquered gate was majestic, but she didn't know what it meant.
Li Ming helped her get off the carriage while coaxing her, "Didn't you say you like men with high martial arts skills the most? My brother met a man with very strong martial arts skills. You will definitely like him when you see him!"
Li Tu's eyes suddenly brightened, "Really? Then he is a hero of the world, right?"
"That's right, that's right, that's the hero of the world. He's a great hero. You'll know it after a while. Let's go in quickly. If you don't go in, the hero will be snatched away!"
Li Tu regained his energy immediately, "No, no, no, he is my peerless hero, and no one else can snatch it!"
After finishing speaking, he ran in with the dawn while holding the hem of his skirt, the guards outside the gate of Gu's mansion thought they were bringing their young lady to see him again, so they didn't stop him.
Seeing the two brothers and sisters of the Li family running so anxiously, the servant at the porter couldn't help laughing and said, "It's useless to run as fast as you can. Miss Bie's has been here for half an hour, how could she come so late?"
If nothing goes wrong, the good news for the third son of my family is probably coming soon, right
