The third princess regretted it, she regretted it very much!
She didn't know which cramp she had, but because Li Cheng refused to be her son-in-law, she felt resentful and very dissatisfied, so she turned her anger on his wife.
This person has always been used to being arrogant, thinking that Gu Qingci is like her unfavored sisters, who can only let herself decide, even if she is bullied and wronged, she can only swallow her anger.
The third princess was not fully awake until she was forcibly sent into the palace by the guards.
She got into big trouble!
Originally, he planned to plant Gu Qingci on the charge of beating a maidservant to death, but when the time comes, the people of Daye will have something to say and say, so that Li Chengze may marry him.
It's just that the third princess didn't expect that things were completely messed up, completely different from what she imagined.
So now she regrets and is afraid!
If Lord Da Si knew what the third princess was thinking, he might be so angry that he would slap her again.
I'm afraid I'm not treating everyone else as fools? What kind of rhetoric are you saying, that if someone kills someone, she will kill him? The Emperor and I are not as good as you!
How did the servant girl die? A powerful imperial doctor will know when the time comes, the fifth prince and the others will think that Da Siguo has ill intentions and wants to frame Daye, and the relationship between the two countries will be in jeopardy!
However, it is too late to say anything now, there is no regret medicine in the world, and bad things done will always be backlashed by bad consequences.
The Emperor Da Si was furious when he knew about this, and immediately declared an order to abolish the title of the third princess, and imprisoned her first. Afterwards, the prince was called into the palace to discuss how to solve this matter, and the only option was to make an apology.
The emperor left this matter to the prince, and the prince came to the door the next day.
Carloads of rich gifts were sent to Li Chengze's yard, saying that they would scare Gu Qingci.
Li Cheng guessed the other party's mentality and thought, and refused twice in a lukewarm sarcasm. It wasn't until the third time that he guessed that the fifth prince would come forward, so he gave in and stopped holding on to this issue.
The prince also breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that Li Chengze is too difficult to deal with, he is cold and indifferent, but you still can't say anything bad about him, it is really hard to say.
Fortunately, it was finally resolved.
The prince originally proposed to let the third princess come directly to plead against Gu Qingci, but Li Cheng flatly refused, saying that his wife did not want to see the third princess again.
Once this matter is over, the fifth prince also intends to leave, and has no intention of staying in Da Siguo.
Therefore, after setting the date, send someone to tell Emperor Da Si.
Then, the group set off for the return journey.
Emperor Da Si asked the prince to see them off, and accompanied them with several carts of rare treasures, which were to be presented to Emperor Daye as a return gift.
There was also a group of people when they went back, but it was much smaller than when they came. There were fifty soldiers following Bao.
It was about the same size as the business travel teams met along the way.
But looking at it from a distance, there are tall horses, and the people sitting on them are more serious and fierce than the other, and they are equipped with swords, so no one dares to make trouble.
The journey was usually safe and smooth, and it took a month and a half.
Finally, he returned to the capital of Daye.
Li Chengze and the others first went to the palace with the fifth prince.
It wasn't until evening that they were led out respectfully by the servants in the palace and let them go back to their respective homes.
This night, the Li family was very lively.
Could it be that Li Chengze and Gu Qingci are back.
It was still hot when they went there, but now it's September, and it's already autumn, and the dew in the morning and evening usually requires an extra jacket.
In the main room, Mrs. Sun took Li Chengze's hands and screamed, let him sit beside her, and looked at him carefully from head to toe.
While saying: "I lost weight, my good grandson, this journey must have been very hard!"
Li Chengze just smiled and said that it was not hard work, "It is the grandson's unfilial piety to make grandma think about it."
"It's good that my dear grandson comes back safely!" The old lady wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief.
The atmosphere was really good and happy, Li Zhi and Li Chan were also very happy, usually they don't talk so much, but today they talked a lot around their elder brother.
As soon as the fifth prince's carriage entered the city, the Li family received the news not long after.
So the old lady ordered the kitchen to buy chicken, duck and fish as soon as she came back, as if she was bound to clean up a table of good noodles.
The mother-in-law's cooking skills are very good, and a table of delicious food has been prepared at the moment.
When the old lady saw that the old woman called for dinner, she quickly pulled Li Chengze to stand up, and said: "Ze'er is hungry, let's go to the side guest for dinner.
The whole family went to the other end, sat down and had a neat meal together, and Li Cheng occasionally told them what he had seen and heard along the way.
Even if Mrs. Bai doesn't like Gu Qingci, she doesn't care about it right now, and smiles at her son, forgetting her usual attitude of looking down on Gu Qingci and pricking others, and concentrates on talking to Li Chengze.
After eating and talking, it was getting dark, the old lady should have rested at this time, Li Chengze and Gu Qingci returned to the west courtyard with lanterns.
When Li Chengze entered the palace, Gu Qingci stopped by and went back to the Gu residence.
Naturally, in her heart, her natal family must be closer than her in-laws' family, and if her husband doesn't follow her, Gu Qingci is not willing to go back alone first, so she told Li Cheng, and Li Cheng naturally followed her wishes, so Gu Qingci followed the convoy all the way to Gu's mansion .
Talked for half a day in Gu's mansion, had a good kiss with the second wife, and finally returned to Li's house together after Li Cheng was out of the palace.
Right now, he was extremely tired, but fortunately, the jade beads and jade bracelets in the house had boiled hot water early in the morning, and the master would take care of washing as soon as he came back.
Nanny Zhang was even more particular, and added pomelo leaves to the water to remove evil spirits, saying that she was walking outside, fearing that the master would get hurt by something bad.
After washing her body refreshed and entering her own room, Gu Qingci came out of breath.
The body is also relaxed, and the heart is also settled down.
The maidservants in the room had not seen their master for so long, and now they all had smiles on their faces.
Fortunately, there are only two jade girls serving in the back room, and Madam Zhang also misses her grandma very much, so she ran to the temple no less than three or four times during this period of time, asking for nothing but a grandma outside safe journey.
Now that the master has returned safely, all his heart has returned to his stomach.
Gossiping a lot, Mammy Zhang was worried that grandma would be tired after walking all this way, so she withdrew and let the two servant girls serve the master to rest.
Li Cheng was even busier, and had to deal with the things he got along the way. He went to the study first, and didn't know what he was sorting out. After finishing it, he was finally free and turned to take a shower.
In the room, Yuzhu was brushing Gu Qingci's hair, and while she was doing it, she was telling her about the family affairs these days, and other trivial matters in a sentence or two, except for the fact that Li's family had come to a distant relative.
Gu Qingci was taken aback for a moment, and then asked: "Distant relatives? Relatives from the old lady's side? I haven't heard of it, why didn't I see anyone today?"
Yuzhu smiled lightly, and replied: "Grandma found it when she left for more than a month, so of course she is gone now. Surnamed Luo, there are only two grandparents and grandchildren. At first glance, it looks like a poor relative who came to fight the autumn wind. No. The first one did come here to seek refuge. After all, he is not familiar with the place in this capital, and there is no one he knows, so he is afraid of being fooled. The old lady Luo is a sensible person, so she only had to stay for a few days before leaving. Besides, that Luo The young master is not very young, he is about the same age as the uncle, and has not yet married a wife. I heard that it is because he has no father and no mother. Already having achieved fame, the reason why the grandparents and grandchildren came to Beijing was also for the next imperial examination.
Those two are polite people, they didn’t say they’ve been living in our house, they entrusted the master to look after the house early in the morning, they probably sold their ancestral property and came to Beijing, they have some money, and they’ve already bought a fresh one The house is smaller, but it is enough for the grandparents and grandchildren to live in. It is not far from our house. I guess I will come over in two days. Grandma must meet. "
Gu Qingci got a little bit of fun listening to it, and now his son felt less sleepy, and tsk-tsk, "The life experience is miserable, and there are only two people left in the family, one old and one young, and now they are far away from home."
Yu Chuan was making the bed at the other end, and she smiled when she heard it, and said, "Actually, it can't be regarded as leaving home. I heard that Mrs. Luo grew up in the capital. When she was a girl, she was best friends with our old lady. She got married and went to another place. It’s just that after decades, how much the capital has changed, Mrs. Luo has no idea, and the first one who came to look for her must be her sister from back then.”
Gu Qingci was even more curious about the young master of the Luo family, so he asked: "You have all met the young master of the Luo family, what kind of person is he?"
Before Yuzhu and Yuchuan had time to say anything, Li Chengze opened the door and walked in, saying loudly, "Who is what kind of person?"
Gu Qingci blinked her eyes, most of her hair was already dry, so she asked the two servant girls to step back.
After the maid went out, she picked out a dry handkerchief for Li Chengze and let him wipe his hair.
He repeated what he had just heard, "I'm curious about our family's marriage, so I'll ask a few more questions, so as not to look confused when I meet people later."
Li Cheng smiled in a low voice and said nothing more.
They were really tired too, and after a while, the two of them went to bed to rest and sleep.
A good night's sleep.
The next day they got up neither early nor late, the two had breakfast together, while Li Cheng went out, saying that it was passed on by the third prince.
Gu Qingci was not at home for nearly three months, and a lot of things had accumulated in the house.
After the meal, Nanny Zhang served Gu Qingci another cup of tea.
While drinking, he listened to their reports of what happened outside.
Yuzhu asked about the two maids that Gu Qingci brought back, and what to do.
Gu Qingci smiled: "I forgot about the two of them. This is because the magistrate in Yulian Mansion saw that there was no maid to serve me, so he specially found someone to give it to me. They were the two of them who served me all the way. I also asked them to wait in the house, and Fu'er let her take care of the tea and snacks I usually eat. Qing'er is good at handicrafts and knows how to comb my hair, so let me comb my hair in the future. In short, you and Yu Chuan look If you can’t get out of trouble, let’s do it first.”
"Yes, grandma." Yuzhu nodded in response, and went out with Fu'er Qing'er to identify everyone in the yard, and explained the rules and taboos in grandma's house in detail.
Nanny Zhang brought all the ledgers outside to Gu Qingci.
Since Li Cheng helped her take care of all the property and shops in her hands, no one below had the courage to lie to others, and the accounts were all clear.
Later, Li Cheng took some time to teach Gu Qingci how to do the accounting, and Gu Qingci gradually learned it, and he didn't feel a headache when looking at the accounts.
No, it took half a day to clean it up.
