Chen Ping hesitated to speak and retreated quietly. In the dark night, he lifted his feet and exerted strength with his hands, and easily climbed over the high wall.
The moment he landed, he thought to himself, what good thing does the second young lady of the Gu family have that deserves her consideration? What she should think about now is how to cooperate with King Shou.
Who knows that in the past five years, the only person who can give Qingwan warmth in this huge Gu Mansion is the second young lady Gu Qingzhi. Qingwan always repays her kindness regardless of her past or present life, so Gu Qingzhi's marriage has always been on her mind.
Yueniang knew the lady's thoughts best. She added some silver frost charcoal into the charcoal basin, then stuffed the stove into Qingguan's hand, and whispered: "Miss, this won't happen overnight, I'm afraid there's still work to be done. God. It’s getting late, miss, why don’t you have a good sleep first, you can always think of something.”
Qingguan smiled faintly and said, "Yue Niang is right. Now that the Gu family doesn't know the truth, they have rejected the marriage. When King Rui and Prince Qi clarify the matter, there will be another big fuss. I have to recharge my batteries.”
Yueniang smiled and said: "I will light a column of soothing incense for the young lady."
"Yue Niang still knows my heart best."
In the Wanhua Building.
Mother Lu Die personally fed the wine cup to King Shou's mouth.
King Shou drank it all in one gulp, touched the green butterfly's willow waist, and said with a smile: "What kind of incense did mom put on her today? It smells so good. The rouge on her mouth also looks good. Why don't you give me a bite?"
"If you die, I will make fun of the green butterfly."
"I never joke. Can't Ludie see my sincerity?"
A Li was standing by the side. Hearing this, he was so shocked that he couldn't swallow a mouthful of saliva and immediately started coughing. Is this still his wise and powerful master? Why does he speak like a second-rate man who has never seen a woman
King Shou gouged him out, feeling very happy.
The things that A Li asked A Li to inquire about a few days ago finally came in handy. That woman actually had the guts to ask him to do something tomorrow, which was really gratifying. It seemed that she regarded him as one of her own.
The door was suddenly pushed open, and Jiang Hongwen walked in expressionlessly, sat down on the chair, and glanced at Ludie.
Green Die winked, and said with a sweet smile: "You two chat slowly, I will go outside to greet the guests."
After they left, Zhao Jingyan smiled and said, "Why, you lost everything again?"
Jiang Hongwen said with a green face: "Giving money to others for flowers like this is not an option. Qiye, a dandy like me, can I find another way, even playing with women? Anyway, Wanhua Building belongs to my own family and I can't spend it." Just a few dollars and you can just show off.”
Zhao Jingyan sneered: "I'm done playing. There are still people watching when I come in and out, let alone you?"
Jiang Hongwen's heart trembled, and he immediately understood that King Rui, the secret guard kept privately by King Xian, had set up hidden stakes that were by no means simple. Every move he and Ting Lin made was under the eyes of others.
"These days are really difficult."
"What are you afraid of? Once the bank opens, those who have won money will have to pay it back obediently."
Jiang Hongwen said seriously: "Speaking of banks, Tinglin, have you figured out where to get our capital from?"
Zhao Jingyan stroked her forehead and said with a headache: "Hongwen, on such a wonderful day, can you please put aside these troublesome things. I finally stopped worrying about money, and you are here to cause trouble again."
"Do you want to be a free hand?"
Jiang Hongwen added with a cold face, "Miss Sixth only owns one share, so the money has been put into the real world."
Jiang Hongwen was grateful to Gu Qingwan for saving his ancestor. Seeing how crisply and neatly he does things and keeping his word, I couldn't help but give him a few words of help.
"So I plan to shamelessly ask my father for money on the 15th."
"What if the emperor doesn't give it?"
"I'm just going to steal my mother's things and pawn them outside."
Jiang Hongwen pointed at Zhao Jingyan twice, then put down his hand slumpedly and said, "This is a good idea."
Of course it's a good idea. Zhao Jingyan felt proud.
If any pawn shop dares to collect royal belongings, then report it to the official. When the Yin of Shuntian Prefecture sees that it is the handiwork of his Shou Wang, he will definitely bring this matter to his father.
When the father saw his favorite son in such a state, he felt pity in his heart, and with a wave of his hand, the money came.
As a result, his reputation as a playboy prince was further enhanced, and there were fewer pairs of eyes staring at him around him. Anyway, it’s Adou who can’t be helped, so staring is in vain.
Jiang Hongwen added maliciously: "Then I will also take the opportunity to make a fortune."
The two hegemons in the capital are called the Mound, and the Mound cannot be separated from the Mound. If they want to be poor, we will be poor together, and if we want to be rich, we will be rich together. It makes no sense that Ting Lin took the money, and he can't make any profit at all.
Zhao Jingyan thought carefully for a few times and said: "You can cry a little when the time comes. Your aunt who has died a long time ago should cry harder. My father will miss the old relationship."
A Li rolled his eyes hard at the two masters. How is this different from a white wolf with empty gloves
After the matter of the silver was discussed, Zhao Jingyan felt a big stone fall in her heart and said with a smile: "Guess who came just now?"
"who?"
"Gu Qingwan's bodyguard Chen Ping."
"What are you doing here?"
"Asking about something."
"What's the matter?"
"It's about Gao Xiaofeng."
"Gao Xiaofeng?"
Jiang Hongwen was shocked, "Is that Gao Xiaofeng who spends more money visiting brothels than others?"
"Exactly. The old King Qi wants to act as a matchmaker for this widower, and he is talking about the second young lady of the Gu family. What do you think?"
Jiang Hongwen's face hardened, suspicion flashed in his eyes, and after rubbing his hands together for a few times, he said, "Is it about Zhao Tinghai?"
Zhao Jingyan was not in a hurry to answer, poured two glasses of wine, and brought one glass to him. The two clinked glasses and then said: "And the person behind Zhao Tinghai, my good second brother."
Jiang Hongwen took a sip of wine, savored the taste, and said: "She came to inquire, which means that the affairs of the second young lady of the Jiang family are on her mind, and she will definitely find a way to sabotage this marriage."
"What should we do?" Zhao Jingyan smiled and sipped her wine.
Jiang Hongwen glanced at him secretly, showed a wry smile, and said after a while: "Are you plotting against her again?"
"She is allowed to plot against me, but I am not allowed to plot against her?"
Zhao Jingyan smiled like a flower, and her sculptured face was too handsome to look like a mortal.
Considering the Gu family's character, this second young lady must be sacrificed. In this way, not only did the two masters of Gu Mansion have official positions, but they also became closer to Prince Qing's Mansion and Prince Rui's Mansion.
Furthermore, if the second young lady marries into the Shangshu Mansion, there will be no problems at least within three to five years. This will give the Gu family another path to wealth in the capital.
Gu Qingwan only wanted to bring misfortune to the Gu family, and she was protecting the second young lady, so how could she be willing to do so.
With Gu Qingguan's intelligence and wit, he would never take one step or look at it. She must have calculated three steps before making a decision.
So, with her ability, will this "plan before taking action" involve the old Prince Qing's Mansion and Prince Rui's Mansion, or will it only bring misfortune to the Gu Mansion
Zhao Jingyan sighed softly. He was so tricked by her that he was no longer a scumbag. The answer was obvious, it would definitely be the former.
Wow haha, he was looking forward to what kind of means Gu Qingwan would use to refuse this marriage and bring bad luck to the Gu family and the Prince Lao Qing's family.
Jiang Hongwen didn't know why, but suddenly felt that this handsome face was a bit off-putting. He said coldly: "Don't forget what you promised her, and she and us are now a grasshopper on the same rope, and you have to rely on her to earn your money."
"Hey, I don't think Sixth Miss has been to your house. Hongwen, have you started to show sympathy for her?" Zhao Jingyan's tone was a little sour.
Jiang Hongwen put on an expression that said he was too lazy to tell you, drank the wine in one gulp, and then raised his chin towards A Li.
A Li felt very ashamed of his father for scheming against Miss Six. As soon as he heard Master Seven speak for Miss Six, he quickly poured wine for Jiang Hongwen.
When Zhao Jingyan saw the two men venting their anger through one nostril, she rolled her eyes in anger and started to slap the case.
"When did I tell her to fight alone?"
Ah Li was overjoyed and said, "Do you plan to help Miss Sixth from behind?"
Zhao Jingyan didn't answer and just pushed the empty cup forward.
A Li filled the bowl for him and looked expectantly at the handsome eyes in front of him.
Zhao Jingyan put the wine under her nose and smelled it, smiling like a fed fox.
"I am happy to see anything that brings misfortune to others. I and Miss Six are like grasshoppers on a rope, so of course they have to support us from behind."
What's more, he almost lost his life twice in Jiangnan. Whether it was the second brother or the third brother who did it, how could he get the one who was honest and right to come out without pulling these two people down.
A quick cold light flashed in Zhao Jingyan's eyes, and it disappeared in an instant.
Jiang Hongwen and A Li saw it clearly, and their hearts skipped a beat at the same time.
Oh my god, if Miss Six's intelligence is clearly displayed on the outside, then this man's calculations are quietly hidden inside.
Between these two people, it’s really hard to say who plotted against whom and who took advantage of whom!
"A Li, if you have nothing to do from now on, you can often go to Jin Mansion to see if you need any help. You can always go and take a look at Miss Six's courtyard when no one is around in the middle of the night. After all..."
Zhao Jingyan drank the wine in one gulp and said refreshingly: "After all, she will be my princess in the future. Her business is my king's business. The people she wants to kill are also my king's business..."
A Li shivered from head to toe. Based on his understanding of me, I didn't say a word.
What she wants to investigate is also what I want to investigate.
Qingguan woke up feeling refreshed.
Chunni, Yueniang was waiting on the side, dressed properly, Qingguan sat in front of the mirror and looked at herself in the mirror.
With an oval face, willow-leaf eyebrows, plump red lips, and snowy skin, when her eyelids are half-draped, she has the softness of a Jiangnan woman. When he raised his eyes, the charming look in the corners of his eyes was natural.
Six years have passed, and what Qian Ziqi looked like in his previous life has gradually become blurry.
Seeing the lady in a daze, Chunni sighed: "Miss, she seems to have grown up a lot these days, and is getting more and more beautiful." Qingguan came back to his senses, stood up with a smile, and said: "The left and right are just skins, they are more beautiful than ever." What’s the use? Let’s go, Grandma Tan told us yesterday, let’s not be late.”
