Rebirth of the Excellent Daughter of the Marquis Household

Du Xia couldn't sleep all night, tossing and turning repeatedly, all he could think about was Gu Yuqi, and finally the next day, he finally couldn't stand this torment. ran to the dark cabinet.

"Master, have you ever seen such a hidden weapon?" Du Xia handed the drawing he drew to Master Chang of the Dark Guard training camp, and then stood to the side respectfully.

Master Chang took the picture, looked at it, and frowned, "Have you met someone who uses this kind of hidden weapon?" he asked in a deep voice.

"Disciple doesn't have it." Du Xia shook his head, "But the disciple saw such a hidden weapon on the prince's desk. The disciple is curious..."

"Presumptuous!" Master Chang raised his eyebrows and scolded sharply, "Have you forgotten the basic principles of being a dark guard?"

Du Xia knew that if he turned to Master Chang for help, he would definitely be reprimanded. Master Chang had always been his trainer. He really had no choice but to ask his master. He knew that the prince would never let him touch these things, and he didn't hide anything from Master Chang.

"Disciple understands, but ask the master to make it clear. The disciple will go to the execution hall to receive the punishment." Du Xia bowed respectfully and said respectfully, "The disciple understands that you should not inquire about the master's affairs at will. But the master. This matter is very important to the disciple, the disciple begged the master, just tell the disciple this time. The disciple is willing to accept any punishment."

Master Chang took a deep look at the apprentice he taught himself. He has been a trainer of dark guards for many years, and many dark guards have been trained by him, but Du Xia is the best and the most diligent. one of. Master Chang treats Du Xia differently than others. He already regards Du Xia as his direct disciple in his heart, so no matter what he teaches, he pays special attention to it, and Du Xia does not learn anything. Let him be disappointed, but also have a toughness that others do not have.

Master Chang sighed deeply, "Forget it, I'll tell you this time. But you don't remember this as an example."

Du Xia's heart was overjoyed, and he hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed deeply to Master Chang, "This disciple understands that this disciple will definitely not break the rules and make the master embarrassed."

"This kind of hidden weapon is rare in Jianghu, not our Daqi. It came from a hidden organization in Liangguo called Reincarnation Pavilion. There are such rumors in Jianghu, once you enter reincarnation, you will be reborn, reincarnated. When the knife comes out, there is no soul. This hidden weapon is not thrown, but is blasted out by a ball called a reincarnation bullet. If you get close, there will be no life." Master Chang said. "Is there such a thing on the table of the prince? It is estimated that someone has encountered someone from the Reincarnation Pavilion. They collect money. If I tell you, don't ask any more questions, this time, I forgive you, but next time, I will definitely send you to the execution hall to receive your punishment."

"It's the master." Du Xia kowtowed again and resigned, his footsteps were no longer as light as they were when they came, as if they had been filled with a thousand-dollar lead.

His heart and eyes were also in a panic, Reincarnation Pavilion, since even Master Chang said that they were acting vicious, that means Gu Yuqi was someone who met Reincarnation Pavilion? What did Wang Yan mean by sending this hidden weapon back? Is she already in danger?

Du Xia's heart was so chaotic that it was a little difficult to breathe. A flash of light suddenly flashed in his heart. By the way, let's go and see if Wang Yan has sent back a secret letter today.

If Gu Yuqi really died under the reincarnation pavilion, Wang Yan would not send secret letters today. If she didn't die, a secret report would be sent back in a while.

Thinking of this, Du Xia trotted all the way to the secret letter office in the dark pavilion.

After calculating the time, Wang Yan's secret report was sent at this hour almost every day.

"Du Xia? What are you doing here?" When Du Xia arrived at the door, he saw Li Meng walking out with a secret letter sealed by Spicy Pills.

"Is there a letter from Wang Yan today?" Du Xia sank his breath, pretending to be relaxed.

"Yes. Just arrived." Li Meng shook the secret letter in his hand and said to Du Xia with a smile, "I'm going to send it to the prince."

"Then hurry up." Du Xia nodded, "I'm afraid Wang Ye will be in a hurry."

"Oh? No, it's not your duty today." Li Meng nodded first, took two steps forward, and then suddenly remembered, he turned his head suspiciously to look at Du Xia and asked, "How could the lord send Are you asking?"

Du Xia's heart suddenly tightened, "The lord is looking forward to Wang Yan's letter every day, I just asked casually for the lord. By the way, you should rest for a while, why don't you come to me. I got some wine and vegetables. , shall we have a drink?"

Du Xia's prevarication did not arouse Li Meng's suspicion anymore. He nodded with a smile, "Wait for a shift change. I'll go over there." After he finished speaking, he raised the letter in his hand and walked towards the study of the palace.

As soon as he left, Du Xia breathed a long sigh of relief, not only for himself, but also for Gu Yuqi. And there is a letter, which means that she is still alive! No matter what, just live. Du Xia relaxed, only to feel that the clothes on his back had been soaked in cold sweat.

But why did she provoke the Reincarnation Pavilion? If the Reincarnation Pavilion is as powerful as Master Chang said, I'm afraid that if it fails once, there will be a second assassination... Then she... The heart that she just put down suddenly picks up again.

He just hates that he is a dark guard now, and he can't go to the north to find her right away, and he can't protect her by her side... Come to the giant bird blood.

Why didn't the lord leave her affairs to himself? In this way, he can go to see her openly, instead of worrying about her every day in the capital.

Du Xia doesn't ask for anything else now, she just wants to see the secret letter sent by Wang Yan every day. As long as there is a letter, she is still alive.

As the days passed, Du Xia finally received a new task in the summer, that is to sneak into Jiangxia City secretly, and he was finally able to leave the capital.

The summer in Kuizhou is obviously much better than that in Beijing. Although it is very hot during the day, it is very cool in the morning and evening.

Gu Yuqi has already settled in Kuizhou. It has been about a month. In this month, this big mansion has been cleaned up very well. All the doors and windows have been newly painted, and the furniture inside has also been replaced with new ones. Yes, a special gardener was hired to remove the original weeds and planted trees and flowers, giving it a new look.

Gu Yuqi also specially invited people to watch the day, and held a ceremony to go to the house. It was officially moved in. She asked Dai Mei to make a lot of cakes to distribute to the surrounding neighbors. For a time, the whole of Kuizhou knew that a large family had moved here, and the big sign of Liangfu was hung on the door of the house, which was really impressive.

During this month, Gu Yuqi was not only cleaning up the house, but also sent someone to inquire about the preferences of all officials and their families in Kuizhou.

This matter is handed over to Runying and Daimei. Daimei lives a quiet and delicate life. When Runying smiles, there will be two deep dimples on her round face. When the two maids go out, it will give people an impression. is excellent.

Daimei knows how to cook, and the vegetable market is the best place to get news. There is a big vegetable market in Kuizhou. Every time Daimei goes to buy food, she is very generous and doesn't care too much. stand up. Many of these vegetable vendors want to deliver food to the officials and grandfathers in Kuizhou City, and they always hear some gossip in the inner house. Daimei is a beautiful person, and she speaks well. When they talk about something, those vegetable vendors don't carry her behind her back. Some of them even take the initiative to tell Daimei what they know in order to please her.

People said that she listened carefully. After a long time, she also felt the temperament and preferences of many official grandmothers in Kuizhou City. She reported to Gu Yuqi one by one when she went back.

Runying is a good businessman, and her mouth is not good. From time to time, she goes to the shop to buy some small jewelry and rouge gouache. The bosses are all familiar with it. They know that she is the maid of the new big family. In order to do more business, they are willing to talk to Runying more. After a long time, I also got a lot of preferences about the grandma of the official family in Kuizhou City.

Runying and Daimei gathered the information to Gu Yuqi's side. Although Gu Yuqi stayed home this month, she also had a general understanding of these officials in Kuizhou.

Although Liang Huaiyu didn't know what her daughter was asking about, she was the one who spoiled her daughter, so as long as it was done by Gu Yuqi, it seemed reasonable and right to her. After all, they will live here in the future, and they must have contact with these officials' homes, so it would be good to know more.

Liang Huaiyu didn't know that Gu Yuqi had a big plan in mind, that is, to transform Kuizhou City.

Kuizhou is located at the junction of the three countries. It should have been a town with extremely developed trade. However, due to the problem of poor management, the business here is very weak.

The basic conditions here are too poor, and the economic development is hindered everywhere.

If she wants to implement the plan in her heart, she has to get the strong support of the Kuizhou town guard. She is a woman, so it is not easy to come forward and go directly to the guard, and they will ignore you. So Gu Yuqi can only go the wife's route first.

Who doesn't want to live a better life, but in this backcountry, those who want to live a better life have to have that condition.

But it was a coincidence that Gu Yuqi found out that Mrs. Gu Yuqi came from Jiangnan and came from a water town. After marrying Mrs. Gu Yuqi, she came here with her husband and lived there for several years.

The newly appointed guard is very young, less than 30 years old. He was born in the first few years of Wu Zhuangyuan, and he is already young and promising.

Gu Yuqi also inquired about one thing, that is, Mrs. Guard Si has not been able to give birth to a son successfully. She had two babies before, but they both flowed out inexplicably. The Ganquan Temple prayed for blessings and peace.

Great opportunity!

After Gu Yuqi had inquired about it, she talked to her mother. Liang Huaiyu naturally raised her hands in favor of them going to "run into" the guarding Mrs. Si.

Gu Yuqi asked Dai Mei to make a few snacks from Jiangnan, and put them in the food box early in the morning. She took Liang Huaiyu and a few maids, and also set off from Liangfu to go to Ganquan Temple to burn incense and worship Buddha.

Ganquan Temple, as the name suggests, has a spring in the temple. In this northern land where there is generally little rain and little water, this spring is particularly precious, and is known as the first spring in the north. This spring water is indeed as its name suggests, with a slight sweetness, it is perfect for making tea, so Ganquan Temple is also the most popular place for some elegant people in Kuizhou.

It is summer now, the mountain temple is hidden in the dense forest, with red walls and green tiles, it is really beautiful.

The weather was fine, and many people went to Ganquan Temple along the way. Although they were not as gorgeous as the capital, they were all neatly dressed.

Gu Yuqi made a very beautiful carriage, all black body, all metal parts are gilded and silver, gorgeous and extraordinary, the horse that pulled the carriage was selected by Zhao Wu at the market, six black horses in one water, The harness is also made of black leather, and the bridle is the same as the one used on the carriage. The sun shines and the golden light shines. As soon as such a carriage hits the road, it conveys the message, "I am rich, I am great."

Zhao Wu led two guards to clear the way in front, followed by two such carriages. Everywhere he went, it was really eye-catching, which surprised and envied the people who came and went.

Gu Yuqi sat in the car and looked out through the translucent gauze curtain, very satisfied with the sensational effect. Such a carriage is attractive enough even in the capital, let alone in a place like Kuizhou.

This is what she did on purpose, to advertise for herself.

Since you want to get to know those official wives, it is absolutely necessary to have nothing you can do. This place is high in mountains and the emperor is far away. To put it in a bad way, Lord Guard Si is the local emperor here. If Gu Yuqi is determined to make friends with these ladies, she must have some weight.

It's a pity that her and Liang Huaiyu's official identities can no longer be used, otherwise, with the name of Dingyuanhou, how could they make these people bow their heads. Since the official identity cannot be used, then use the unofficial identity, rich man! Very proud of the kind! Even if they are officials, they are unhappy, but for the sake of money, it is right to be courteous to their mother and daughter.

I have to say that Gu Yuqi's advertising has been very successful. From time to time, people ask who owns such a magnificent carriage. Those who have good things will answer proudly that the new big family in Nancheng, the carriage in Liangfu, is in the carriage. It was Mrs. Liang and Miss Liang.

Liang Huaiyu and Gu Yuqi were all well-dressed today, and they even wore Husi shirts that were not usually worn in the capital, just to decorate the front.

Liang Huaiyu wore a light blue pair of straight skirts today, made of lake silk, light and elegant with a heavy drape. The lapel and cuffs are embroidered with elegant patterns with yellow and green silk threads. Two ruyi silk ribbons of the same color hang down from the waist, and each has an east pearl. The pearl is round and smooth, and there is a faint flow of precious light when walking. This body is gorgeous and very low-key, without the slightest feeling of a nouveau riche. Coupled with Liang Huaiyu's appearance and temperament, it makes people look straight after getting out of the car. Her cloud-like hair was combed in two buns at the back of her head, and a delicate pearl phoenix hairpin was pressed into her hair, which reflected each other with the pearl around her waist, like a fairy in a painting.

How could the people in Kuizhou ever see such a shrewd person? When Liang Huaiyu got off the car, the surrounding air seemed to be frozen. Almost all the people who set up stalls or pilgrims in front of the temple were all attracted by Liang Huaiyu. .

Seeing so many people looking at her, Liang Huaiyu couldn't help but feel a little warm on her face. She nodded lightly, her eyes wandered, and it was another intoxicating scene, which took a long time for the people around to come back to their senses.

Everyone couldn't help but look forward to the people who got on and off the second car.

A pretty-looking maid came over, opened the curtain of the car, and helped a young girl from the car.

Her hair is in double rings, her long hair reaches her waist, and she wears a plain white gauze that is as light as a cloud. The buttons on the neckline of the white gauze are all made of pearls. On one side of the belt is a white jade pendant. This jade pendant is exquisite and named Yu Linglong. The white jade is polished very thinly, and it is hollowed out with repeated patterns. When the wind blows through the jade pendant, it will make a crisp sound, hence the name. A hairpin made of white jade was inserted diagonally between her hair, making her whole person look like a fairy. Her eyebrows are unusually gorgeous, her lips are as red as roses in midsummer, and her star-like eyes are like the sea, which makes people indulge in them if they are not careful, and they will overwhelm the country and the city.

If the first beauty is the spring breeze, then this beauty in white is a pot of wine, which not only makes people have endless aftertastes, but also makes people want to be drunk to death.

The appearance of Gu Yuqi and Liang Huaiyu won everyone's admiration and admiration. Their gestures and gestures also carried a heroic spirit and refreshment that ordinary women did not have, which was really unforgettable.

It wasn't until they entered the temple together that the people in front of the temple woke up like a dream. If it wasn't for the two extraordinarily gorgeous carriages left behind, everyone seemed to have a dream.

The guard's surname is Fang, and his wife's maiden name is Fan. She has long been worshipping Buddha in the temple. Gu Yuqi's timing is just right. When they arrive, they just come out of the Buddhist hall.

The people on both sides faced each other, and even Mrs. Fang admired the bearing and beauty of Liang Huaiyu's mother and daughter, and stopped to watch for a while.

Liang Huaiyu and Gu Yuqi knew that this was Mrs. Si, who was guarding the guard. Seeing that she was only in her twenties, she was also born with delicate features and a petite body, with the unique charm of Jiangnan women. Liang Huaiyu immediately had a good impression of Mrs Fan, and nodded with a smile as he passed by.

After Liang Huaiyu's mother and daughter entered the Buddhist hall, Mrs. Fan asked the maid next to her to ask, whose wife and young lady are these. The little maid came back shortly after, saying that this is the new big family in the city, the wife and young lady of the Liang family.

Gu Yuqi's house was very lively that day. The light firecrackers set off half the city, and the red chips all over the place. In addition, she was very generous. Not only did she deliver things to the neighbors, but she was also the most prosperous in the city. Rice and grain were distributed on the streets, so as long as they were officials in Kuizhou City, no one didn't know the new family who moved in.

When Fan heard that it belonged to their family, and seeing the demeanor and temperament of the mother and daughter, she had the intention of making friends.

She is also a very assertive person, otherwise she would not give up the prosperity of Beijing, and many years ago, she followed the Guard Secretary to the border crossing. There are not many wealthy households that can be counted in the city of Kuizhou, and there is no such person as Liang Huaiyu's mother and daughter.

She asked the little maid to wait at the door, and as soon as the mother and daughter came out, she invited them to the pavilion at the back to drink tea.

But she told the little maid not to tell the mother and daughter her identity, she just wanted to try the mother and daughter.

She wanted to test people here, but she didn't know that Gu Yuqi had already figured out her details.

Gu Yuqi and Liang Huaiyu finished worshipping the Bodhisattva and added a lot of money for sesame oil before they came out. As soon as they came out, they were stopped by this little maid, saying that their wife had invited them. This is in line with Liang Huaiyu and Gu Yuqi's intentions, but the two still pretended to ask who their wives were.

Liang Huaiyu and Gu Yuqi followed the maid to the pavilion in the back mountain. It is summer now. The pavilion is surrounded by trees that cover the sky and the sun, and it is in the mountains. Once the breeze passes, it is indescribably cool and comfortable.

Fan waited for a while, and the tea was already cooked before Liang Huaiyu came with Gu Yuqi. After seeing the ceremony, the mother and daughter sat down opposite Fan.

Gu Yuqi was still thinking about what to say, when she heard Mrs Fan say, "I have heard the name of Xinliang Mansion for a long time. Now when I see the owner of this Liang Mansion, it is really enviable."

Liang Huaiyu immediately greeted and said a few words to Mrs Fan. Mrs Fan asked the maids to serve tea, and Gu Yuqi asked Daimei to bring the food box.

"How can there be no dessert if you have tea." Liang Huaiyu smiled, "But it's a coincidence, today I asked the maids in the house to make a little bit of hometown pastries, and invited my wife to try it. Don't dislike the rough hands of the maids in the house. Feet are good."

Fan Shi is pregnant now, so how dare she eat outside food, but Liang Huaiyu said so, she didn't refuse, and it was okay to see.

As soon as the food box was brought up, Fan's eyes tightened. This box is extremely beautiful, isn't it a lacquer box from Jiangnan? Where is there such a thing in the North, it is obviously brought from Jiangnan.

Fan Shi, who didn't expect the cakes inside, also felt a little nervous.

As soon as the lid of the box was opened, Dai Mei took out eight kinds of Jiangnan desserts, and when Mr. Fan saw it, he felt that his eyes were slightly red and hot.

It's been too long, since she got married and left home, she hasn't been back to Jiangnan, and now she's here, and at first glance, what she is familiar with, how can she not get excited.

"This..." she said in a trembling voice, "Could it be that Mrs. Liang is also from Jiangnan?"

"That's right." Liang Huaiyu nodded, pretending to be surprised, "How did you find out, Madam Fang?"

Gu Yuqi sat on the side with her head down, she wanted to praise her mother, her acting was so good, she was at the level of an actress.

"Dare to ask if Mrs. Liang is from the Liang family in Jiangnan?" Mrs. Fang asked slightly excitedly.

Is it or is it not? Liang Huaiyu arched Gu Yuqi secretly and asked her daughter for help. If it is true, if there is any festival between Mrs. Fang and Jiangnan Liang, it will be hell! If it's not...it seems a little bad.

Liang Huaiyu was embarrassed, Gu Yuqi didn't tell her this beforehand.
