Value peace

Chapter 104 Parents are short-sighted ([-])

"Even so," Gu Xiyan was still a little skeptical, "Didn't Madam Ye give birth to Qi Hongluan later?"

Liu Meier looked around, leaned close to Gu Xiyan's ear and said in a low voice, "You don't know that when Mrs. Ye was pregnant with the third girl, she lay in bed all day to protect her pregnancy, and even had sores on her back... "

Gu Xiyan took a breath of cold air: "Are there sores on your back?"

Liu Meier nodded seriously: "It's true, I didn't lie to you. At the beginning, my mother secretly invited Aunt Gao from Chunli to see her... Even now, my mother has to go to treat her in person every Spring Festival. Ms. Gao's New Year's greetings. My aunt often gives her many rewards from my mother."

Gu Xiyan has all kinds of tastes in her heart.

Ye Zisu, a gentle and gentle woman like a delicate flower shining in the weak water and a willow in the wind... At the age of twelve or three years old, she married alone from the prosperous Shengjing to the cold and snowy Yongzhou. Jin, there are a lot of servants and women, but a pregnant woman has sores on her back... Ye Zisu, what kind of life did you live in the Duke of Yan's mansion?
Qi Maosheng, where were you at that time, and what did you do?

Gu Xiyan was very puzzled.

What happened?
"Sister Gu, sister Gu!" Liu Mei'er called to Gu Xiyan who was stunned, "Are you scared by me?"

Hearing Liu Meier's concerned words, Gu Xiyan quickly restrained her thoughts and said with a smile, "A little bit."

Liu Meier comforted her with a smile: "Anyway, we won't marry that person, and nothing will fall on you and me."

Gu Xiyan smiled wryly, and changed the subject: "Dexin Courtyard, is this the house where Mrs. Ye lives?"

"En." Liu Mei'er said, "The first wife of Duke Yan's mansion lives in Dexin Courtyard, and the side wives live in Gongshun Courtyard. My aunt has always lived in Gongshun Courtyard."

"What about the third master's biological mother?"

"Oh, you mean Mrs. Zhou!" Liu Meier said, "It turned out that I also lived in the Courtyard of Gongshun. It's just that my aunt lived in the Huai Garden on the east side of the Courtyard, and Mrs. Zhou lived in the Banyan Garden on the north side of the Courtyard. After the master inherited the title, the two brothers separated. The third master Qi opened a mansion in Suanmiao Hutong not far from Yan Guogong's mansion. Mrs. Zhou naturally followed her son, and Mrs. Xu moved into Xianjiyuan, but Grandpa Guo has never had a concubine room, and my aunt has always lived in the Huai Garden of Gongshun Yuan."

"No concubine?" Gu Xiyan murmured.

"Yes!" Liu Mei'er was also very depressed, otherwise, how could she be sent to Hongtai like a lady in a restaurant, "He is a weird person."

Gu Xiyan showed a low smile.

This is what I know Qi Maosheng will do!

"Yan Guogong's mansion is very deserted." Liu Mei'er said listlessly, "the front yard is okay, especially the back house. The other yards are closed and empty. At night, there are only a few hazy lamps. The lamp, like a will-o'-the-wisp..."

Gu Xiyan was in a good mood, and said with a smile, "Have you seen it?"

"Of course." Liu Meier said, "Every time I go to Duke Yan's mansion, I live in Huaiyuan with my aunt. No one dares to tell you anything about anything...Fortunately, I will go back to Chengzhou soon." Speaking of this, she thought of Gu Xiyan, who was going to the Duke of Yan's mansion soon, and couldn't help feeling worried. Looking at Gu Xiyan: "How about, after you go to see my aunt, I will tell my aunt that you follow me back to Chengzhou. Anyway, we already have a Wei Shiying in our family, and we don't care if you have one more."

Gu Xiyan was a little bit dumbfounded at her innocence, and asked curiously: "Wei Shiying? Who is it?"

Liu Mei'er curled her lips: "He's also from Dongxi Wei's family, but we're distant aunts and uncles."

It seems that Liu Mei'er doesn't like this cousin very much.

Gu Xiyan smiled: "Then your family has another idler."

Liu Meier was a little embarrassed: "Sister Gu said it. Sister Shiying didn't like to play with me very much. You went and just happened to be my company."

Gu Xiyan smiled and said, "It's hard for me to say anything about this!"

"That's right." Liu Mei'er understood with a face full of understanding, "Without my aunt's consent, it's always bad."

If Mrs. Wei really sent herself to the Liu Mansion in Chengzhou, would Qi Maosheng...would he go crazy?

Thinking of this, Gu Xiyan couldn't help but smiled affectionately.

After Qiugui had polished the ink, Liu Meier told another article about the technique of embroidering tree branches. Gu Xiyan wrote down one by one in detail. Halfway through the writing, Liu Meier couldn't bear it anymore and took it. The pen in her hand: "Let me write it, as you do, no amount of paper is enough."

Also, the fonts are of different thicknesses, large and small, which is really inappropriate.

Liu Meier wrote a beautiful hairpin lowercase script, very beautiful.

Maybe it's because those who can do more work, the final situation has become Liu Mei'er talking and writing.

Gu Xiyan sat absent-mindedly on the kang and studied the handkerchief with a pattern of real red peony flowers: "I wonder when will I learn to embroider a purse?"

"Sister Gu!" Liu Meier raised her voice, "Can you concentrate on it. I'm writing something for you!"

Maybe it's because of getting acquainted with Gu Xiyan, her voice has a little pampering, but it's not annoying, it just feels cute.

Gu Xiyan smiled indifferently: "I have a good memory. When did you write it down, and when did I start memorizing it, I will memorize it in a while."

"You!" Liu Mei'er put down the pen helplessly and shook her hands, her tone was helpless, and she said coquettishly, "My hands are sore from writing."

"How could it be?" Gu Xiyan was unmoved, "Your handwriting is so beautiful, you must have worked hard on weekdays. These few words are little sense to you."

Liu Meier stared at Gu Xiyan speechlessly.

It's a pity that the person is too beautiful, and the eyes are too soft, not lethal at all.

Qiu Gui covered her mouth and smiled.

That's good too, Miss Gu's trouble, at least she doesn't have a gloomy face anymore.

The atmosphere in the house became cheerful and warm.

* * * * * *
Different from Gu Xiyan's cheerfulness, Qi Maosheng's atmosphere here is very serious.

The person talking to him was a middle-aged scholar in his thirties, with a fair face, elegant features, and elegant and calm gestures.

His name is Dingzhi Han, Qi Maosheng's most valued adviser.It can also be said that he is Qi Maosheng's true confidant.

Qi Maosheng's face was a bit serious: "Have you found out what Yuzhi did in Shengjing?"

Ding Zhihan's face was not relaxed: "He is checking the whereabouts of the Lord."

Qi Maosheng's eyes narrowed, shooting out a sharp gaze like an eagle.

"The whereabouts of Lord Xizhao in June, 290." Ding Zhihan added, "At that time, Lord was staying in Qixia Temple."

"Isn't it the current whereabouts?"

Ding Zhihan answered with certainty: "No."

In June of the ninth year of Xizhao 290.After five years of preparation, that was the day when he decided to send troops to Gaochang.At the same time, he heard the news of Ye Zisu's death.At that time, Fang Shaoqing was a guest in Yandi, and he disappeared... So he personally chased after him to find out how much Fang Shaoqing knew.Who knows but saw Ye Zisu.In a rage, he smashed the yard called Xiangyu Pavilion.In order to ensure that the news of sending troops to Gaochang did not leak out, he asked Fang Shaoqing to voluntarily detain Fang Shaoqing for four months at a place he designated on the condition that they would not be held accountable for their elopement...

Now that everything is a foregone conclusion, what exactly does Qi Yuzhi want to track down?
Qi Maosheng looked cold.

Some words and phrases he had heard before surfaced in his mind.

He gave Ding Zhihan a cold look.

Ding Zhihan lowered his head and was stroking the jade ring between his middle fingers, as if he didn't pay attention to his movements.

Qi Hao is like a giant, but he is the shadow behind him.The espionage organization in Yandi, the plan for the war in the past five years, the plan for Gaochang Kingdom... I have said too much and know too much.If you're smart, you shouldn't meddle in the affairs of his backyard anymore.

Ding Hanzhi made up his mind and lowered his head.

Qi Maosheng saw that Han Zhi had been silent for a long time, so naturally he could faintly know his scruples.

He couldn't help but secretly sighed.

Family affairs are national affairs and world affairs, but his family affairs have not been smooth.Now that he is going to marry a girl who is only 14 years old, I am afraid that he will have to worry about everything in the future.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help asking: "Gu Baozhang, what do you think?"

Of course Ding Hanzhi didn't know why he asked about this person, but he didn't have to worry about what his attitude should be if Qi Hao asked about the inner house, he was still very willing to talk about this topic.He deliberated, trying to find a more appropriate word to describe this person.

Qi Maosheng couldn't wait any longer: "Why, it's hard to make a conclusion?"

"Yes." Ding Hanzhi smiled wryly, "You say he is mediocre, and he is the only champion in Xizhao's 'three yuan and first'; you say he is rich in learning, and he has no achievements in academics; you You can say that he is a gentleman, but he is still working hard in the imperial court, flattering you; you can say that he has ambitions in the temple, but he doesn’t know how deep he is, and anyone would dare to join him... Let’s take this imperial court to set up Gaochang in Gaochang. As far as the Dudu Mansion is concerned, the Empress Dowager Cui Qing was originally the governor of the Gaochang Dudu Mansion. He knew that Cui Qing was a famous "reverse party", but he still posted it. To be honest, I really feel sorry for the imperial concubine Sigh."

"Oh!" Qi Maosheng looked very interested.

Ding Hanzhi smiled and said: "I have carefully studied the court's military tactics against Wujun City in the past 15 years. In the first few years, the court lost troops every time and lost generals. After shi represented Kunning Palace to participate in the allocation of military rations, horses and grass in the household department, the battle situation of Liangdi Dudufu against Wujun City has changed a lot, especially in the few years when Zuo Xiaoyu was the deputy commander, all battles were won. And it was an overwhelming victory, making the people of Wujun City "hear Zuo mourning soul", that is, the heavy snowfall in Xizhao 290, no one in Wujun City dared to send troops to Horseshoe Bay... I really don't understand, Chaoting How could Zuo Xiaoyu be transferred back to Shengjing this time. And Zuo Xiaoyu's behavior is even more strange, he even married the Gu family. In the past few years in Liangdi, he has been prudent and cautious in using troops, and he is low-key, which can be seen Chu is not a pushy person at all, if he makes such a move, it really makes people suspicious. I always feel that there is something we don't understand."

I didn't save the manuscript yesterday because of the leakage incident, and I have been busy with the unit gathering today, so the update is a little late.Tomorrow's update may be a bit late, everyone, don't wait, wake up in the morning and read the article!
