The Prince of Anjun received a message from the Ding'an Houfu that night.
Since the end of Chen Guo's proton career, Anjun Wang has been very low-key since returning to the capital, and he hardly interacts with people except studying for the imperial examinations.
Everyone in the capital knew the temperament of this Anjun King, and would not take the initiative to make friends with him on weekdays, so looking at the post in his hand, Anjun King was a little surprised.
In order not to be abrupt, Lord Gu's post was sent to King An Jun and Zhuang Mengdie.
Prince An was quite surprised, but seeing Zhuang Mengdie's name didn't seem so surprising: "Master Gu has really raised a restless daughter."
You don't have to think about it and guess that it was the wrong Gu Jinyu who did it.
However, Prince An did not expect that Gu Jinyu had misunderstood her words, which caused Gu Jinyu to have undeserved thoughts about him. He only thought that she was trying to win over Zhuang Mengdie, and by the way, he was invited to the house by Zhuang Mengdie's hand. Dipped in his light.
He sneered and threw the post on the table.
Wu Yang asked, "Your Majesty, what did the Ding'an Houfu think? Why did you send a message to you and Miss Mengdie?"
The relationship between the two parties is actually a bit complicated. The last time he was in the villa was an accident. There was no inn nearby when it was late, and he couldn't see at night.
However, behind the Marquis of Ding'an's mansion is Concubine Shu, and Concubine Shu is behind His Majesty. Are they not afraid of causing His Majesty's speculation if they are too close to the Zhuang family
King Anjun sneered: "If anyone really asks, it's just a relationship between the two young daughters' families, not party forces."
Wu Yang pouted in disgust: "Don't go to this kind of mansion banquet! When the old man was in power, he was not worthy to have a relationship with our Zhuang family, let alone now?"
The Prince of Anjun said lightly: "Don't look down on the Ding'an Houfu, the old marquis was so successful in the past, and suddenly his majesty took over the military power and handed over the dead soldiers he secretly cultivated. He left the capital in a cold heart. Traveled around the world. Do you think it is true?"
"Isn't it?" Wu Yang asked.
Prince An squinted his eyes: "I have always suspected that the old marquis broke with His Majesty on the surface, but he actually took the opportunity to leave the capital to secretly cultivate troops for His Majesty. If the Xuanping Marquis's Mansion is a clear spear in His Majesty's hands, then Ding An The Hou Mansion is the dark arrow behind His Majesty."
Wu Yang expressed his doubts: "But why do I look at Gu Houye as if he can become a great master. How long can he last with the strength of the old Houye alone? Has your majesty's bet gone wrong?"
Prince An's eyes were deep and dark: "Master Gu can't, Gu Changqing can."
Wu Yang: "This..."
Prince An did not continue the topic, but said, "Girl Gu's birthday is also on the same day, right?"
Wu Yang naturally understood that the girl Gu mentioned by his master was not Gu Jinyu, and he said, "It should be, and there is also Young Master Gu."
Prince An nodded: "Did they find out where they live in the capital?"
Wu Yang said: "I heard that Miss Gu's husband went to Guozijian to report to the aisle and left his address, but..."
"Just what?" King An asked.
Wu Yang said: "That house was a house that the prince once took a fancy to and let his subordinates buy it, but it was a pity that it was bought at ten times the price."
Prince An had a little impression: "You mean the mansion that is very close to the Imperial College and has two oversized yards?"
"That's right!" Wu Yang nodded!
The King of Anjun asked in confusion: "How did they live in that house?"
Wu Yang said: "I heard that Miss Gu's husband rented it for thirty taels per month."
Prince An became more and more puzzled: "Only thirty taels?"
Thirty taels is actually a lot, but if you know that the house was bought for ten times the price, you will feel that the rent is not worth mentioning.
All the houses in that alley are very close to the Guozijian, but only that house has the largest courtyard, which is very suitable for people with children at home. She happens to have a three-year-old little brother.
But how did they rent it
"Maybe it's luck." What Wu Yang really wanted to say was that the person who bought the house was a fool, right? He spent so much money to buy the school district house in Guozijian, but the result was to rent it out
Anjun Wang shook his head: "Forget it, there is no need to go into this. It's not bad for them to live there. There are students from the Guozijian nearby, and no one will recognize the Queen Mother."
"One more thing." Wu Yang said.
"What's the matter?" Prince An asked.
Wu Yang said with a strange expression: "Does the county king remember the recommended places in the county seat? The subordinates have inquired about it, and Miss Gu's husband took the test for two cases in the children's test, and the total score ranked first in the county seat."
Anjun Wang said: "I know about this, it is because his grades are good enough that I persuade my grandfather to find a way to reopen the Guozijian, so that he can enter the school with his whole family, and the queen mother can enter the capital without attracting attention. Any questions?"
Wu Yang said with a puzzled face: "The place recommended by the county seat was not him, he was admitted by himself!"
King An Jun hummed suspiciously, wondering whether he was more surprised that the other party had won the first place in the township examination, or that he was more surprised about the number of places.
"Who's the place for?" he asked.
Wu Yangdao: "Give it to one of his friends, named Feng Lin. The subordinates checked it, and this Feng Lin has no background. In the township examination, he was ranked 17th in the provincial capital. The children's examination was taken in Songxian County. I haven't been rated yet, and somehow I got a recommendation from the Imperial College."
Prince An sneered: "It's enough to buy the county magistrate."
Wu Yang frowned: "However, the quota for the Imperial College is handed in first, and then the results of the rural examination. Could it be that Xiao Liulang was confident that he could be the first in the examination even before he got his grades, so he bought the county magistrate in advance and put it away. The place that should belong to you has been given to your friend? This is too outrageous, isn't it?"
It's really outrageous, after all, even the King of An County does not dare to take this risky move easily.
But if it is said that there is another secret, Prince An does not believe it.
After all, Wu Yang also checked Xiao Liulang's background. He was an orphan from another place. He lost his father when he was young. His mother raised him and his elder brother, but he and his elder brother passed away one after another. In the end, he was the only one left.
He fainted and was rescued by Gu Jiao at the entrance of the village. After he became a relative, he also got registered in the village.
He was very appreciated by Dean Li, and Dean Li also unilaterally announced that he was his direct disciple.
He himself has never responded, but it is true that after he became Dean Li's disciple, his grades improved by leaps and bounds.
He was only at the bottom of the class at first, who would have expected that in less than a year, he would be admitted to the provincial capital Jieyuan in one year
Anjun Wang smiled lightly: "Dean Li and my fourth uncle were ranked among the top four talents in the capital at the beginning. My fourth uncle has always been unconvinced. Why is the ranking of President Li higher than his, now we have the answer."
Is it really due to Dean Li? Why does Wu Yang think that Xiao Jieyuan is really not easy
However, Wu Yang didn't say these words. He still knew the temperament of his own county king. He was resourceful and foresight, but at the same time, he also regarded himself as lofty and did not think that anyone in the world could be smarter than him.
In a twinkling of an eye, it is October 18, the autumn is high and the air is cool, the clouds are light and the wind is light.
Houfu was busy before dawn.
Today is both Gu Jinyu's birthday and her wedding ceremony.
Lord Gu originally meant that Gu Jiao and Gu Yan would go back to the manor for their birthday together, but they were ruthlessly rejected by the siblings.
Gu Jiao didn't go back because she didn't consider herself a member of the Hou Mansion, and Gu Yan didn't go back because the whole mansion couldn't find a few people who really welcomed him.
His grandmother only had three older brothers in her heart. He was a sick child and was unlucky, and he was not liked by his grandmother when he was a child.
As for the three older brothers, when he was a child, he naively thought that they were really his own brothers. After being beaten a few times, he understood that he and they could never be family.
Gu Jinyu's life experience is only known to the master of the mansion and some of his confidants. Others do not know that Gu Jinyu is the wrong daughter, and they do not know that Gu Yan has returned to the capital.
Just as in previous years, only Gu Jinyu is the daughter of a daughter who celebrates her birthday.
Yao Shi gave Gu Jinyu the gift last night. Early in the morning, she went to the Guozijian to accompany the dragon and the phoenix to celebrate the birthday.
Gu Jinyu couldn't care less about being disappointed, because she had too many surprises today.
Concubine Shu was unable to come to the Hou Mansion because something went wrong in the palace temporarily, so she had no time to do so, so she asked the fifth prince to come instead of her.
The fifth prince also brought the emperor's imperial decree, officially canonizing her as the county head, and titled Hui.
This is the first county owner from Hou's residence. Everyone is honored, and Mrs. Gu also feels that she has a good face, so she knelt down and thanked the emperor for her kindness.
"Grandma." Gu Jinyu helped Madam Gu up.
Mrs. Gu patted her hand with relief, her eyes full of pampering: "I know you are a good candidate. Your Majesty canonized you as the head of Hui County. This word of wisdom shows how much Your Majesty appreciates you!"
This is to praise Gu Jinyu for his extraordinary intelligence!
Gu Jinyu bowed and said, "My grandmother taught me well. Since I was a child, I have been under her grandmother's knees and have been immersed in my ears and eyes. It is my grandmother's credit for my current knowledge. My grandmother did not favor one over another just because I was a daughter, and invited me so much. Excellent Mr. Xixi, without a grandmother, there would be no name of Jinyu's county head!"
Hearing this, Mrs. Gu was elated.
Mrs. Gu really loves Gu Jinyu, but it is still incomparable to the three grandsons. Mr. Xi Xi was invited by Lord Gu, and Mrs. Gu just didn't object.
However, Gu Jinyu was willing to put the credit on her, which shows her filial piety.
Unlike the wild girl who grew up in the country, she didn't know how to kowtow to her after coming to the capital for so long.
It's a pity that it's not biological, in the end there is a layer of belly.
"Congratulations to the old lady, congratulations to the county owner!" Concubine Ling sent her carefully prepared congratulations.
Gu Jinyu didn't like Aunt Ling in her heart, but she knew that the old lady liked Aunt Ling, and she would not take the old lady's face.
She personally took the congratulations from Aunt Ling: "Thank you, Auntie."
Aunt Ling took out another gift: "This is what your elder brother prepared for you. If you can't leave the barracks, he asked me to bring you the gift first."
Gu Jinyu knew that this was actually prepared by Concubine Ling, and she was not disappointed. She couldn't eat a big fat man in one breath. Big brother should take her time to change. She has already seen the signs. I believe that in time, big brother will accept her from the bottom of his heart!
Gu Jinyu's wedding ceremony was very powerful, and many dignitaries in Beijing came, even Lord Siye of Guozijian came!
Siye is the official position second only to the wine sacrifice in the Imperial College. There are two chief and deputy chiefs, and the one who came is Mr. Zheng!
The young Jijiu passed away, the old Jijiu resigned and left the capital, and everyone in the capital is saying that this Master Zheng will be the next Guozijian Jijiu!
Gu Jinyu felt a great honor, and all the grievances he suffered in the villa for half a year were dissipated.
She really belongs to the capital, and the capital is her place. Here, she can shine!
If it is said that Zheng Siye's arrival has brought Gu Jinyu an honor, then the next character can be said to make the entire Houfu shine.
The person who came was actually a close friend of the Crown Princess, and the Crown Princess brought Gu Jinyu a gift!
Gu Jinyu didn't know what to say.
The Crown Princess was the future queen, and her status was second only to the Empress and the Crown Prince. Even Concubine Shu dared not hold Joe in front of her. How could such a powerful person send someone to attend her wedding ceremony
Gu Jinyu was flattered!
The maid smiled and said, "Congratulations to the county lord Hui, the crown prince said, if the county lord Hui is free, you can go to the East Palace and play chess with her to relieve her boredom."
"Yes!" Gu Jinyu respectfully responded.
The servant raised the whisk in his hand and said with a smile, "It's getting late, the Crown Princess is still waiting for the miscellaneous family to return to her life."
"I'll send the father-in-law!"
"Hui County Lord stay."
After the chamberlain left, both Mrs. Gu and Marquis Gu felt that this was not true. Overnight, they even had a relationship with the Crown Princess
It may be an exaggeration to talk about dealings. Nine times out of ten, the Crown Princess only accepted a congratulatory gift after seeing His Majesty's face.
But no matter what, this value is enough for them to be prominent in the capital for a while.
"Jinyu didn't disappoint grandmother." Madam Gu's last grudge that Gu Jinyu was not her biological granddaughter was gone. Does it matter if she is biological
Those who go out from their Houfu will represent the face of Houfu in the future.
