Chapter 39
In the evening, after Yuan Wenshao came back, Hua Lan told Yuan Wenshao the situation,
"Master Hou, the four-and-five-bedroom lady of the Gu family has begged to come over, so it's not good for us to just do nothing!"

Yuan Wenshao was really scratching his head. He never thought that the Gu family could ask him for this matter. It seems that Gu Tingye is still putting on airs at the moment.
"I'll go to Gu Tingye later to see what's going on, let's talk about it. Gu Tingye is not in a hurry, nor is he in a hurry for the master of the Gu family. The four and five are in such a hurry!"

After a while, Yuan Wenshao came back from Gu Tingye,

"It's not good for us to intervene in this matter. Gu Er told me just now that he is now fighting for the position of his late mother with the Gu family. If we intervene, it will ruin his business. Wait for the four-bedroom and five-bedroom ones to come again." Ask, just say that I went to find someone, but Qi Heng turned out to be stern and selfless, because his family is the residence of the Duke of the State, he would not sell the face of our Marquis of Weiyuan, so I will go there to put on a show later!"

Hua Lan nodded to show that she understands that Ming Lan's relationship is closer than that of the Gu family.

The next day, Yuan Wenshao went to Qi Heng's house for a day, but Mr. Qi did not agree with "stern and selfless".

On this day, Minglan came to visit Hualan,
"Big sister, do you know that the elders of the Gu family are really not good people!"

Hua Lan was very curious, women are more gossipy when fighting,

"How to say, what happened!"

"Today, Gu Tingyu, Gu Tingye's eldest brother, suddenly summoned the whole family to the front hall, and took out the suicide note of my father-in-law, the former Marquis of Ningyuan. In the end, they dared to hide the old master's suicide note privately, so rebellious!"

Hua Lan was astonished that there was such a person who even hid the last words of the old Hou Ye before his death.
"How dare they act like this? Aren't they afraid of the spirit of the old marquis?"

Minglan also nodded,

"It's only now that I know that there are such brazen people in this world who abuse my family's officials like this. Such people are ashamed to be elders, and they pretend to be in front of my family's officials every day, asking my family's officials to save their sons. Daydreaming!"

Hua Lan feels a little bit lucky now, this Gu family is really a den of tigers and wolves, just like Ru Lan, she doesn't know if she can stand up for marriage, but she is a little grateful to Ming Lan,

"I have to publicize this matter about your family, and let outsiders see what kind of faces her little Qin's wife and the four-bedroom and five-bedroom people are like!"

Minglan thought about it, and said:
"Forget it, big sister, it's not good for you to publicize this matter. Maybe outsiders still don't believe it. Besides, with so many servants today, it will definitely slowly ferment. There is no need for us to talk about it!"

Hua Lan also nodded when she heard the words, that's true, if she went to say it, maybe it was made up for her and for her sister.

I don't know if I let go of the burden in my heart. After explaining the matter, Gu Tingyu died that night, and the Ningyuan Hou's mansion hung a white sail the next day!
Yuan Wenshao took Hua Lan to condolences as usual, but Yuan Wenshao and this Gu Tingyu really didn't have much communication. In fact, most of them were not very familiar with this generation of Ningyuanhou. He was weak and sick and rarely came out to socialize. The Gu family was involved in some major treason cases, so not many people came!

It was far from the previous Ningyuan Hou Gu banquet. Of course, it would be a hundred if someone died, but it was inevitable that people would feel that the Ningyuan Hou's mansion was a bit like the setting sun. Fortunately, Gu Tingye came out of the Gu family.

The offenders of the Gu family were also sentenced. Because of Gu Tingye's plea, according to the seriousness, Gu Tingwei was basically acquitted without any incident. Sentenced to exile, it is said that there was a lot of trouble for a while!
A few days after Gu Tingyu's funeral, the government personally decreed the canonization of Xijue, Gu Tingye inherited the title of Marquis of Ningyuan, and Minglan also followed Zhanguang to confer the title!

Yuan Wenshao and Hua Lan also came to congratulate them personally,

"Zhong Huai, you have inherited the title of Marquis of Ningyuan. It seems that you should move again in a short time. You can't live in the Marquis of Ningyuan!"

Gu Tingye waved his hand, he didn't want to go to that tiger and wolf den anymore,
"No, anyway, my General's Mansion and Marquis' Mansion are also next to each other, so just open a small door to signify the merger of the mansions!"

(Ningyuanhou's Mansion is in the middle, General Gu Tingye's Mansion and Yuan Wenshao's Weiyuanhou's Mansion are on both sides)

Yuan Wenshao smiled and said:
"That's fine, but there should be rumors that you are not filial. Instead of going to the Hou's mansion to support your aunt, you only care about the freedom of the two of you!"

Gu Tingye didn't think so, and laughed,

"What am I afraid of? Now that I have too many lice, I don't worry about being bitten, and I don't worry about getting too many debts!"

Yuan Wenshao nodded,
"You really are, this is a piece of cake for you!"

In the evening, Yuan Wenshao and Hua Lan had a meal at the General's Mansion. Ming Lan cooked the cook himself. Yuan Wenshao tasted really good, and couldn't help but admire it.

"It's still Zhonghuai that you are blessed with good food. Six girls are capable, not only able to take care of the house, but look at the cooking of this little dish. It's really good. Let's come back to Hualan a few more times!"

Gu Tingye laughed out loud when he heard this, apparently very satisfied, while Ming Lan smiled slightly and said:

"Brother-in-law won the prize!"

Hua Lan rolled her eyes. She cooks so-so, basically has no skills, and basically rarely cooks.
"Don't you just dislike me for not knowing how to cook? No way, you divorce me and find someone who can cook!"

After speaking, he was still a little embarrassed, so he picked up the embroidered fist and hit Yuan Wenshao in front of several people!
Several people were overjoyed, and they all laughed!
The Gu family was full of troubles, and within a few days, Gu Tingye's weak and unable to take care of herself, Zhu Manniang came to the door again, and it was very noisy, and they all went to the court. A few times, it was said that he did not cultivate internal morality and corrupted the authority of the government. If the officials hadn't protected Gu Tingye, he might have been punished, and even the commander of the imperial army might not be able to continue!
After hearing this, Hua Lan was very angry.
"What's the matter with Qi Heng? It's all told by relatives. It's a crime. I stare at Gu Eryi every day. Now Ming girl is getting bored to death. This Qi Heng is really a piece of brown candy. One point, it's still entangled now, she never thought about Minglan's life!"

Yuan Wenshao felt that Gu Tingye was a bit indecisive, a Ningyuanhou couldn't deal with a slut, even if she is a good citizen now (Gu Tingye once took off her lowly status), there are ways for her to disappear,
"This Gu Tingye is usually very decisive. How come he is indecisive in front of this little concubine? Even a bitch like this can't be dealt with!"

Upon hearing this, Hua Lan retorted,

"That woman has shared the bed with Gu Tingye for so many years, and has two children, besides, I heard Ming Lan said that the woman didn't know where she hid Brother Chang, and she wanted to find it through her! "

Yuan Wenshao thought about it, too.

"However, Qi Heng is pushing his nose and face again, but he just leaned on the Queen Mother. Now he is so unscrupulous. If he doesn't rein in the precipice sooner, sooner or later, the Duke of Qi will be in trouble!"
