She couldn't help but feel a little strange in her heart. The adoptive mother's family had always been greedy for money. The second uncle should have made arrangements before. They had no reason to talk back. Now it would be of no benefit to them to make such a fuss. Who was secretly helping Gu? Where are the bright-eyed mother and daughter
"By the way, do you have any idea about the person I asked you to find?" Gu Mingyue suddenly asked.
"The miracle doctor Ning left Beijing a few days ago, but he met a few people before leaving. Those people also had the surname Ning and lived on Hedao Street. But those people rarely came out, and I couldn't find the people I was looking for. Come out with more stuff.”
Gu Mingyue pondered for a moment before saying: "If you let people continue to keep an eye on that family, Doctor Ning will definitely come back."
"My slave understands."
"It's a pity that this is a good chess move. I'm afraid it won't be so easy to deal with Mr. sky.
But watching Gu Mingmou and her daughter being so proud, how could she be happy? The death of her aunt was always a thorn in her heart. Why were many things different in her new life than in her previous life
No matter how much Gu Mingyue gritted her teeth with hatred in her heart, she couldn't stop Gu Mingmou's good mood. She even used half an extra bowl of rice at noon.
This good mood lasted for several days, until Qi Lang invited her to go horse racing in the suburbs. Because Qi Lang had helped her before, Gu Mingmou couldn't turn his back on him. But as soon as she agreed, a piece of news came from Prince Heng that shocked her: Xiuye was pregnant.
To be honest, she was really surprised, and at the same time she felt that Xiuye was very courageous. Qi Lang is a cold-hearted person. In his previous life, he could let Xiuye be beaten to death. In this life, he will let Xiuye give birth to a concubine's eldest son, or will he raise her outside as a concubine
Will not.
How could a man who was perfect in every aspect allow such a situation to exist in his life? Xiuye is not the kind of naive and ignorant little girl. How could she try to tie up Qi Lang with her child before she married into the Hou family
So... this matter was strange from beginning to end, and the news came from Prince Heng, which made her have to think a little more.
But it felt impossible. Xiuye had been away from the Gu family for some time. At that time, Prince Heng didn't even know who she was, so how could he notice Xiuye. Besides, this method is really dirty.
Prince Heng doesn't seem like someone who can do such a thing.
After thinking for a long time, she couldn't come up with any clues, so she could only give up. It's a pity that her good mood was completely ruined by this news.
Not sad at all, but full of disgust. She felt that she could somewhat understand her mother's mood that day. At the same time, she was also a little moved. If she grasped it well, this would be a good excuse to separate from Qi Lang, and the fault would still be the other party's.
But the premise of all this is that Xiuye can keep the child, and she can control Xiuye.
She definitely couldn't do this by herself, and I'm afraid she would need Prince Heng to take action. This was the reason why Gu Mingmou was hesitant.
She wished she could immediately terminate her engagement with Qi Lang, but once the engagement was terminated, Prince Heng would become even more unscrupulous. Compared to Qi Lang, Shen Guiye, who had a high position and deep thoughts, was undoubtedly more dangerous.
People who seek skin from tigers never end well, not to mention that she still wants to take advantage of Shen Guiye. Now he is particularly concerned about her because he has taboos in his heart. Once the person blocking the way is gone, will everything be the same as before
No one can give her this answer, she can only make her own decision.
The horse farm in the western suburbs is owned by the royal family. It is backed by Mianyang Mountain and has beautiful scenery. Many noble children also like to come here to have fun when they have nothing to do. Especially recently, several small kingdoms in the southwest presented several BMWs. The emperor was so pleased with the concubine that he rewarded them all. Yongning Hou got a fire-walking unicorn colt. Qi Lang brought Gu Mingmou here specifically to see the horses.
It's just a coincidence that besides them, there were also many distinguished disciples who came to walk the horses today. As soon as Gu Mingmou got off the carriage at the Yongning Marquis Mansion, he met these people face to face.
"Hey, isn't this the crown prince of Yongning? He was invited by the third prince to come to the horse race today?" The speaker was a young prince holding a folding fan and wearing a light blue brocade robe. Although he had a smile on his face , but his eyes were a bit sinister, especially when he looked at Gu Mingmou, his cold gaze made people very uncomfortable.
Gu Ming's eyes swept over him, and she was confused. She had never seen this person before, and he seemed to be somewhat hostile to her.
Qi Lang shook his head slightly and said: "Today is just a coincidence, I didn't expect to see the young prince here."
"What a coincidence. Since we're here, let's come together. There are so many people and it's so lively." The young master raised his folding fan and nodded Qi Lang. His natural attitude made people frown.
"I'm afraid it won't be appropriate to have women around today."
"Oh, what do I think it's about? It just so happens that my little sister is here today. Just let her go with her. What's the point of a grown man like you always following a little girl?"
The other party invited him again and again, but Qi Lang couldn't refuse, so he could only look at Gu Mingmou apologetically, and Gu Mingmou smiled back at him, without any reluctance on his face.
After listening to Qi Lang's introduction, Gu Mingmou realized that the person in front of him turned out to be the legitimate son of King Jin, the brother of Anyang Princess Shen Ying.
Gu Mingmou had a deep impression of Shen Ying. On the boat that day, this person was polite to her on the surface, but secretly set a trap on her again and again. If she was a stupid person, she would have fallen into it long ago.
Turning his head to look at Qi Lang, Gu Mingmou chuckled in his heart. This family matched Qi Lang.
When a group of people arrived at the racecourse, they saw several pretty women in riding clothes from a distance. Looking at the woman slowly walking towards them, the young men from aristocratic families refused to blink.
Even though she was a woman, Gu Mingmou had to admit that Shen Ying looked really heroic in this riding attire, with a temperament that a woman raised in a boudoir didn't have. Even Qi Lang was stunned when he first saw her. There is also a sense of appreciation in it.
Shen Ying glanced at Qi Lang, smiled Yingying at her eldest brother Shen An, and said playfully: "Brother, you are late."
Shen An, the eldest son of Prince Jin, winked at his sister and said with a smile: "I happened to meet Brother Qi, so I invited him to come with me. Don't you think it's boring to have a small group of people? Miss Gu is here today, so you have to take good care of them. ”
Shen Ying looked at Qi Lang after hearing this. When she saw the other party smiling at her, she couldn't help but raise the corners of her lips, and then moved her eyes to Gu Mingmou, "Miss Gu, we said goodbye that day. I didn't expect to see each other again so soon."
"I've met the princess." Gu Ming glanced at her slightly, his attitude was lukewarm.
"Miss Gu, you have brought your riding clothes. If I don't have a few more sets here, why don't you come and change into them with me?" Shen Ying didn't seem to mind her indifferent attitude and was still very enthusiastic. Gu Mingmou did not reject her proposal. He only turned to look at Qi Lang and followed Shen Ying with the maid.
When she arrived at the camp where the female family members were placed, she realized after listening to Shen Ying's words that the female family members who had been with her before were all the concubines of the third prince. Although they were all ladies, their status was not on the public stage. No wonder she treated her like this. enthusiasm.
Of course, this enthusiasm may be mixed with something else.
