"Hui Ye, A Li feels the same way."
Zhao Jingyan stroked her chin and suddenly said loudly: "Come, turn the horse's head and return to the palace quickly."
"Master, what is your plan?"
"No matter what kind of medicine is sold in Miss Sixth's gourd, since I promised to help her, what's the point of guarding against it earlier or later?"
In the rainy night, the carriage galloped, splashing water.
However, in a short time, the car had arrived at the door of the house. A Li jumped down and held an umbrella. Zhao Jingyan opened the fan and leaned against A Li. She squinted her eyes and said loudly: "Third brother, third brother, eighth brother, come here." you drink."
"My lord, something bad happened. Prince Shou broke in."
"Good come, I was just about to ask him." Zhao Jingwei covered her neck with her hands, looking annoyed.
Zhao Jingyan slanted her body and walked into the yard drunkenly. She turned her eyes slightly and took in everything in front of her eyes.
The sixth lady fell to the ground with her hair disheveled, soundlessly, her whole body had been soaked by the rain, and she looked very embarrassed.
Zhao Jingyan's heart skipped a beat, and her eyes quickly sank.
Is she dead
Zhao Jingyan pretended not to see it and said with a smile: "Third brother, let's go and have a couple more drinks with eighth brother."
Zhao Jingwei sneered: "You came just in time, let me ask you..."
"Wait, third brother!"
Zhao Jingyan suddenly walked to Qingguan's side, and quickly probed Qingguan's breath with her hand. After secretly letting out a sigh of relief, she must have been knocked unconscious.
He jumped away suddenly and said with disgust on his face: "Hey, isn't this the sixth lunatic of the Gu family? Third brother, how did you get her here?"
"Is she really crazy?" Zhao Jingwei looked surprised.
That day he clearly saw her with her face downcast, like a lady, indescribably gentle and touching.
Zhao Jingyan rolled her eyes: "Third brother, this sixth lady has been a lunatic since she was born. Don't you...don't you know?"
Anger welled up in Zhao Jingwei's heart. Well, you Gu Mansion, you actually used a madman to fool this king.
"Third brother...you...this...what's wrong with your neck?"
Zhao Jingwei gritted her teeth and remained silent, with a sinister expression on her face.
Zhao Jingyan turned a blind eye to his face as black as the bottom of a pot, shook her head and said, "It couldn't have been bitten by that madman, right?"
Except for the sound of rain, no one answered his question in the courtyard.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk!"
Zhao Jingyan shook her head repeatedly: "Third brother, it's not that I'm too talkative, but the Gu family is too courageous. Those who know it say that the Gu family fawns over the third brother; those who don't know think that the third brother bullies others and won't even let go of a lunatic. Alas. , this matter will be spread to the father’s ears... "
Zhao Jingwei's face darkened, his whole body was fierce, and his eyes were as cold as a blade.
Zhao Jingyan sighed softly and added another sentence carelessly.
"But then again, everyone in the world knows that the Gu family belongs to the second brother. Now they come to curry favor with the third brother. What happened again. Could it be that they want to ruin your reputation, third brother? Fortunately, my father Are you asking for a favor?"
Zhao Jingwei's face had turned from green to black at this time, and her teeth were clenching.
You second-in-command, I asked you why my father sent me to Jiangnan, but you still looked so happy. You must have set a trap for me here.
If these words really reach the ears of my father, my achievements in this trip to Jiangnan will be ruined, and I will be impeached by the censor when I return.
Cruel, so damn cruel.
Zhao Jingwei figured this out and quickly said with a smile: "Eighth brother, this matter..."
Zhao Jingyan laughed and raised her eyebrows high.
"Second brother, the Gu family has ulterior motives. In my opinion, it is better to send the person back first and then make a long-term plan to avoid being caught out."
When Zhao Jingwei heard this, she felt that it made sense and hurriedly said: "Come here, send this lunatic back to me."
Zhao Jingyan glanced at Miss Six who was being carried away, and felt a little strange in her heart. A few waves flashed in her eyes, and then disappeared quickly.
"Eighth brother, this matter..."
Zhao Jingyan quickly came back to her senses, stepped forward and hugged the King Xian, gave a thick burp of wine, and said with a smile: "How about we brothers talk while drinking?"
When Zhao Jingwei heard this, her brows slowly opened, and she sneered in her heart, "I have settled this relationship with the Gu family."
The demure woman on the bed moved her eyelashes.
"Miss, miss."
Qingguan heard someone calling and forcefully opened her eyes. When she saw the familiar tent above her head, she breathed a sigh of relief with a smile on her lips.
It seemed that everything was just as she expected.
"Miss, you are finally back, but Yueniang's heart is not good..." Yueniang wiped her tears and could not continue.
"Miss, if something happens to you, this slave will not be able to survive." Chunni cried inconsolably.
Qingguan looked at them deeply and placed three fingers of his right hand on the pulse of his left hand.
"Yue Niang, don't cry, I'm very well. What time is it now, how is the house?"
Yueniang wiped her tears and glanced at Chunni.
Chunni hurriedly walked outside, looked around a few times, then closed the door and came in.
"The young lady was sent back an hour ago. The master was so frightened that he fainted on the spot. The second master and the princess have already entered the palace and said they would accomplice the good king."
Chunni added: "The master woke up and shouted that he wanted to expel you from the Gu Mansion, saying that the miss was a mourning star and would kill his family. Fortunately, my wife gave me some advice."
After hearing this, Qingguan smiled even more and motioned for the two to help her up. There was some pain in the back of her head. She must have been hit by the guard with the back of her hand.
"Is there anyone in the house who can deliver a message to the uncle in Beijing?"
Chunni said hurriedly: "I just sent it away an hour ago. It was a letter written by the second master himself."
Qingguan tilted his head and said with a smile: "Did Chen Ping spread the news?"
"Don't worry, young lady, as soon as it gets bright tomorrow, the custodian will know all about the news that the Gu family sold their daughter for glory, even the porters passing by the Suzhou family."
Qingguan licked the broken hair around her ears and said with a smile: "I'm relieved then. Pour me a cup of tea quickly. I'm dying of thirst."
Chunni hurriedly picked up the teapot, poured a full cup of warm tea, and fed it into the young lady's mouth: "Miss, please take a bath. If you get wet in the rain, be careful of catching a cold."
Qingwan soaked herself in the wooden barrel, with her hair loose and her head resting on the edge of the barrel.
Yueniang washed her hair with strands of water and said softly: "Miss, I don't understand. Will the Gu Mansion really fall after today's announcement?"
Qingguan's smiling face gradually turned cold, and a sneer flashed in his eyes.
"Yue Niang, after today's incident, even if the Gu Mansion does not collapse, it will plummet in the future."
"Miss, are you serious about this?" Yueniang didn't believe it.
Qingguan looked calm: "It's more real than real gold!"
This drama had been planned in her mind as early as when the wise king came to the south of the Yangtze River according to the order and the princess wanted to give her away as a chess piece.
Yueniang is still confused: "Why don't you understand?"
Qingguan raised her eyebrows slightly: "Five years ago, the Gu family, who was originally under the prince's sect, betrayed his mentor, forced his aunt to death, and married the princess before he could get along with Prince Rui. In the past five years, who belongs to the Gu family?"
"People from King Rui, even fools understand."
"The people of King Rui secretly gave the second wife's legitimate daughter to King Xian. What will the world think of this matter?"
Yueniang thought for a while and said: "The world will only say one thing, the people in the Gu family really know how to use the wind."
"Well said. Whichever way the wind blows, the Gu Mansion will fall. But what if King Rui doesn't fall?"
"King Rui will not fall?"
Yueniang thought hard, and suddenly her heart skipped a beat, and she suddenly realized: "Miss, I understand. If King Rui doesn't fall, and the scandals happened in the past, the Gu family will also lose the favor of King Rui."
"Yue Niang is smart. Since Gu Fu is a dog that can bite people, how could King Rui not be on guard and either kill the dog with a knife or abandon it. This is one."
"Could there be two more?" Yueniang asked in surprise.
"Of course there are two. The wise king went to Jiangnan to investigate the case. Before the case was investigated, it almost fell into the hands of the madman of the Gu family. Who will he blame for this?"
"Gu Mansion!"
Qingguan smiled brightly: "Gu Man wanted to ride on two boats, but his feet were too short and he fell into the river. He offended the old master and was resented by the new master. Do you think the future of the Gu Mansion will be better? Are you feeling better?"
Yueniang said angrily: "Is it best to give him a hard time?"
Qingguan silently turned her gaze to the window and said quietly: "What if I cut off the Gu family's financial path now?"
Yueniang's heart skipped a beat and she exclaimed: "Miss..."
Qingguan turned his face, looked at Yueniang for a moment, nodded slightly and said: "If I am not mistaken, the wound on King Xian's neck should be extremely itchy and painful at this time. With Zhao Jingyan beside him, the golden miracle doctor This name will soon reach the ears of the wise king."
"Then what does the young lady plan to ask the wise king to do?"
"The Suhang Weaving Inspector is the most wealthy official in the south of the Yangtze River. The Gu family has been supported by his father's secret work for the past five years."
"Miss, do you want to touch the second master's official position?"
The corners of Qingguan's mouth rose slightly, "It's been five years, and it's time for my father's official position to be moved. Even though he was snatched away, I can only ignore Aunt Zhang for a few months, and coax the princess first. Princess The only person who can ask for help is the old Prince Qi, and she only wants to return to the capital. If you think about it... we are not far away from returning to the capital. "
Yueniang fell to the ground, looking straight at the young lady in front of her, with a look of shock on her face.
My mother, with this step-by-step plan, Miss...she...how is she so smart
Qingguan didn't look at her, she knew what Yueniang was thinking at this time.
The so-called intelligence is just that you put more thought into it than others. It looks like you are calm and strategizing, but in fact you are walking on the tip of the knife and the tip of the ice. Every step you take is like walking on thin ice.
Tired
Really tired. But comfort is reserved for the dead.
Only someone like her, who has died once, understands that being tired is actually a blessing. Aunt and cousin, you won't have to wait too long.
Gu Yanqi leaned on the bed with a gray face and his eyes were dull.
An hour ago, the Xian King actually sent someone to send Liu Yatou back. His personal attendant had a sinister look on his face and said something that made him lose his mind.
"The Gu family sent a madman to the prince. The prince said that he would remember this love for the rest of his life."
