When I walked out of the house, there was no one in the courtyard, not even a woman keeping watch.
Qingguan took a deep look at Jiang Hongwen, who was keenly aware of it and said: "It is a helpless act to kidnap Miss Sixth. If Miss Sixth's identity is leaked again, wouldn't it be Hongwen's fault?"
Qingguan smiled as an answer. The two of them walked out of the courtyard and saw a small sedan parked at the entrance of the courtyard.
Jiang Hongwen opened the sedan curtain himself, and Qingguan took the opportunity to get on the sedan.
After the sedan made a few turns, it stopped at the back door of Jiang Mansion. Qingguan got out of the sedan and got on the carriage. To her surprise, Jiang Hongwen did not leave, but drove her off in person.
Qingguan quietly lifted the sedan curtain and took a look, suspicion flashed in his eyes.
The second tyrant in the capital, sleeping in flowers and lodging, gathering for gambling and fighting, doing anything... seemed incompatible with the cold and polite man in front of him.
If she was not mistaken, this person, like the longevity king, pretends to be a pig and eats the tiger.
So what is the purpose of a man from a family of poets, etiquette and hairpins, a man of scholarly family, wearing such an ugly skin? Does the Chiang family know
Qingguan's face was cold, but his eyes revealed too many complex emotions.
Jiang Hongwen noticed that Miss Six was staring at his back and sighed in his heart.
In today's desperate situation, too many clues were leaked. With her intelligence, she would have noticed something. It seemed that she had no chance, so she had to discuss it with Tinglin.
He thought for a while and said: "There are many beautiful ladies in the world, Miss Six, but there is less of a golden doctor who can help the world. Is Miss Six willing to do that?"
This question is very profound.
Qingguan coughed lightly and said, "What do you think should be done?"
Seeing that she didn't answer the question, Jiang Hongwen felt alarmed.
Tinglin and I can fight her to a draw. One-on-one, I am definitely not her opponent. Don't try to test her, but let her find out my true colors. It's better to keep quiet. The old ancestor's illness depends on her.
He chuckled twice and said, "How could I know? I'm just feeling sorry for the patients all over the world."
After a short question and answer, Qingguan knew that he was very cautious, and suddenly asked: "Was the water thief that day really a water thief?"
Jiang Hongwen thought for a while and said, "If the sixth mistress says yes, then it is; if the sixth lady says no, then it is no."
How could Qingwan, such a smart person, fail to hear the profound meaning of these words. It seems that these people are not real water thieves.
She covered her mouth and smiled: "Your majesty, you visited a brothel and were poisoned, entered a village and were hunted down, and even went on a boat, your life was in danger. You are obviously in good health, but you have to... Mr. Jiang, do you think this world is right?" Messy?"
Jiang Hongwen couldn't answer even half of the sentence. He smiled bitterly and sighed: "It's hard to explain in one sentence!"
Cover it up hastily.
Qingguan threw down the curtain and closed her eyes to rest. Since she can't ask, there's no need to get to the bottom of it. The initiative is in her hands, and she will gradually be able to figure out the opponent's trump card.
Jiang Hongwen secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
No more, I can't hold on any longer. This woman is too smart. I originally wanted to delay it for a few days, but now it seems that I can't delay it. This trip to Prince Shou's Mansion must be a walk.
I hope Tinglin won't blame me for disturbing his good things.
When Qingguan walked into Jin Mansion, it was already the third watch. A table of sumptuous dishes was already freezing cold, and everyone was standing under the eaves waiting.
Yueniang rushed over, hugged Qingguan in her arms, looked left and right, tears welling up in her eyes.
Qingwan raised her face in Yueniang's arms and looked at each one. Qian Fu, Chen Ping, Yin Deng, Chun Ni…
Qingguan smiled at everyone and said: "Heat the food and serve it again. This is our first time in Beijing to celebrate the New Year, so it will be lively."
Yin Deng and Chun Ni responded in unison, each hurriedly opening their doors.
In a moment, there were charcoal trays supported in the four corners of the flower hall, and various dishes were placed on the large round huanghuali table. The heat was rising, and everyone sat together, pushing cups and changing cups.
Qingguan drank two sips of rice wine, feeling warm in her body, and said: "The ancestor of the Jiang family was ill, quite seriously. Jiang Hongwen was so anxious that he kidnapped me."
"The Jiang family, the Jiang family of the Imperial Academy?" Qian Fu said in shock.
Qingguan smiled and said: "It is the Jiang family that can make even the Imperial College change their surname to Jiang."
Qian Fu said with a clear look: "No wonder the young ladies are willing to treat her. They are also old friends of the Qian family."
"Come, today is the reunion day. Let's not say anything. Let's eat and drink as usual."
Qingwan raised his glass and took the lead in drinking it all.
After drinking, she took out the red envelopes she had prepared in advance and asked Yueniang to distribute them to everyone. For a while, the hall was filled with laughter and everyone was happy.
At the fifth watch, the banquet is over.
Qian Fu was about to speak but stopped, as if he had something to say to Qing Guan.
Qingguan patted him on the shoulder and whispered: "Uncle Fu, let's live this new year well first."
Qian Fu understood in his heart that it was extremely convenient for the two governments to be so close to each other. After the New Year was over, everything would be settled and we would discuss major matters then.
"Miss, I would like to wish you a happy birthday. I wish you good luck in the coming year and may all your wishes come true."
Qingguan smiled meaningfully and took the opportunity to lie on Chen Ping's back.
Under the ups and downs, people have entered the inner courtyard of the Jiang Mansion. Qingguan felt dizzy. He must have been fed a few more glasses of water and wine.
She was helped by Chunni to the bed. She seemed drunk but not drunk, listened to the firecrackers outside, held the corner of her mouth, and fell asleep.
Qingguan fell into a deep sleep, but someone was tossing and turning.
Zhao Jingyan, wearing only her middle coat, looked at the uninvited guest in front of her and pushed the woman in her arms.
The woman gave him a charming look and left with a smile.
Jiang Hongwen looked at the room and frowned: "On New Year's Eve, do you have to ruin yourself like this?"
"What if not?"
Zhao Jingyan poured herself a drink and said with a smile: "I have already attended the family banquet in the palace, and I have also drank with the eighteen concubines at the New Year's Eve banquet in the palace. It is time for me to relax." It's so easy. Why are you here? Be careful that someone tells the Jiang family that they have no way of educating their children."
Jiang Hongwen laughed angrily, sat down and took away his wine, "My ancestor is ill, not serious."
When Zhao Jingyan saw that the cup was stained with his saliva, she looked disgusted. She simply put it in front of him and took another cup to pour wine.
"I got the news. Are those imperial doctors useless?"
"A bunch of quacks."
"I just said, money, once Cao and the two left, there will be no one available in this hospital."
"I sent Gu Qingwan to see a doctor."
Zhao Jingyan's hand holding the jug shook and she poured all the wine outside. She said with a look of disbelief: "You... actually... got rid of this little ancestor? No wonder you want to avoid Wanhua Tower. Tell me, she is Not to take revenge on you?"
Jiang Hongwen curled his lips and gave an overview of the matter.
Zhao Jingyan stopped smiling and said, "I never thought that my ancestor's illness would be so severe. I will go see her tomorrow morning."
"Let's not talk about our ancestors. Let me ask you, what are you going to do with Miss Sixth?"
"I haven't thought about it yet."
"What's the meaning?"
"It's not interesting. In my life, I have never had several problems with a woman. Such a woman deserves more attention. Don't bother me, I will treat you right now. Drinking to look at the moon, drinking to drown my sorrows is just thinking about what to do.”
Jiang Hongwen glared at him coldly, snorted, and simply drank a glass of wine.
On the way back from Hengshui Mansion, he started to think about it. After thinking about it for these days, he still couldn't figure out the reason or what to do.
"I don't care. After seven days, the ancestor will change the prescription and use the pulse needle. You can find a way to get her out of that house."
Zhao Jingyan seemed oblivious, picked up the fan at hand, shook it twice, and smiled gracefully: "I think I have to find a chance to sit down and have a cup of tea with Miss Six."
As soon as New Year's Eve passes, the days become as busy as running water.
When several aristocratic families heard that Mr. Gu had come to Beijing, they all came to visit. People came and went in the house, which was so lively that it kept the grandmother busy.
Princess Huayang was picked up by the carriage of Prince Lao Qi on the second day of the second lunar month, saying that she was going back to her parents' home to stay for a few days. Second Master Gu personally sent the person there and hurried back after noon.
As soon as he returned home, Mr. Gu didn't go anywhere. He went straight into Aunt Zhang's room and refused to come out.
That night, he hugged Zhang's smooth jade body and sighed in his heart, happiness was not easy to come by.
Most men in this world have three wives and four concubines. His backyard is full of fat and thin women, which can be considered lively. But I just married a Hedong Lion Roar.
In the past five years, Mr. Gu could only eat one dish. Even if it was dragon meat and fairy meat, he would always get tired of it.
Although he would occasionally take the opportunity to sneak a bite or two, in the end, it was just a scratch on the water. Before he could taste it, he was already being scolded like a dog. It was sad, tragic, and miserable.
Second Master Gu hoped from the bottom of his heart that the princess could stay at her parents' house for a few more days, preferably for a long time without coming back. In this way, the three aunts would take turns sleeping for a few days, which would satisfy their craving.
In this room, the second master Gu is romantic and happy; in the other room, the princess has been spying on her for a long time, and she hears everything going on here clearly, and she is sure to file a good complaint with the princess after she returns home. One condition.
Mr. Gu rested for a day at Aunt Zhang's place, thinking that the emperor was very particular about getting the rain and dew equally, so he couldn't favor one over the other. If the tigress came back and took out her resentment on the Zhang family alone, wouldn't it be worth the loss.
What's more, although Liu and Xu are not as young as Zhang, they are better at knowing and knowing, which will definitely be a different experience. So the next day, he rested at Liu's place.
Mrs. Liu was about to put a few drops of Miss Six's eye drops in the man's ear, and then she used all her skills to make the man who was being served by Mr. Gu feel comfortable. Just when Mr. Gu was so satisfied that he was dizzy and about to fall asleep, Mrs. Liu started crying with runny nose and tears.
