A ray of sunshine shines into the Huaiyuan Marquis' Mansion in the early morning.

Gu Mingzhu waited for another day, and Liu Su finally got the news in, and the bag of candied fruits was handed into the yard.

Gu Mingzhu picked up one and tasted it first. The taste was still the same as before, but when she bites it, she found walnut kernels inside. After eating the right food, she felt better.

In comparison, the candied fruit made by chef Pinxianglou a few days ago was inaccurate. Gu Mingzhu thought that Lord Wei was cooking quickly and his cheeks were a little hot. She couldn't remember how much mutton she ate and how many bowls of chicken soup she drank. Her original intention was to welcome Lord Wei. In the end, she seemed to eat more, for fear that Lord Wei would be too surprised. She explained: "I don't eat that much on weekdays."

If her appetite was bigger, the pot of chicken would not be left at all. In fact, she still left half of the chicken for Nie Chen and the others.

But the next day she felt that the food at home was not so delicious. Seeing this, her mother hired a doctor, so she had to refuse that she had eaten too much and accumulated food.

She didn't eat too much, but she just felt that the food made by Lord Wei was better than that of the chef at home. If Lord Wei didn't become an official, he would also learn from Master Wei's second to open a few restaurants, the business would be very good.

Unfortunately... Lord Wei's identity... is a bit inexplicable as a chef. If Nie Chen and the others knew that Lord Wei was the current legitimate son, they would be afraid to eat the chicken in the pot.

Gu Mingzhu sat on the warm-up and opened the letter sent by Liu Su. Before, Nie Chen asked someone to ask about the situation of the Shen family. Now Mr. Shen gave another list, narrowing the scope for them and making it easier for the people in the market to find clues.

When Yan Shen obtained this list, Shen had not yet married the Zhang family. Since the Zhang family played an important role in this case, the suspicion of those who had contact with the Zhang family would be even greater. She asked Nie Chen to lead people to find people in the list who meet such conditions first.

When Zhang got married, he took several houses from the Shen family to his parents' house, one of whom was a foreigner who had studied in clan school in the Shen family.

This person is Qiu Hai. He entered the Shen family school at the age of thirteen and was thirty years old. Gu Mingzhu was stunned when she saw this. When Qiu Hai went to the Shen family seventeen years ago, if Qiu Hai intentionally inserted into the Shen family at that time, then the man deliberately arranged it for seventeen years.

If Qiu Hai's identity is confirmed, the third prince and the fifth prince are even less likely to be behind the scenes.

Gu Mingzhu retracted her thoughts and continued to read.

Qiu Hai was from Yingtian Mansion, and his ancestors were craftsmen of the helm. Qiu Hai once knew how to read with the village man. Later, his parents died, so he went to the Shen family to work as a choreographer. Seeing that he was smart, the manager of the Shen family asked him to study in the clan school. Later, Qiu Hai worked as a manager and helped the Shen family handle some business. Eight years ago, Qiu Hai was in Yingtian Mansion. After Zhang got married, he went to the Zhang family in Guangzhou with Zhang.

Judging from Qiu Hai's origin and his whereabouts, he looks very much like the ship manager mentioned by the Xiu family.

There is a shipyard of the imperial court in Yingtian Prefecture. Qiu Hai's ancestor was a rudder car craftsman. It seems reasonable to come from Yingtian Prefecture, but can the children of a rudder car craftsman be sent to the Shen family by such a worry?

Is there any other secret about this Qiu Hai?

Like Tan Dingfang, Qiu Hai seems to have no problems on the surface, but there must be a big secret behind them, which closely connects them.

Lord Wei asked someone to ask about Tan Dingfang's origin, but he had not found any clues at the moment. Tan Dingfang had been in the officialdom for a long time and had long been able to cover up his past.

Tan Dingfang's grandfather and father were both scholars. His grandfather stopped as a scholar in his life. His father passed the imperial examination, but his family was poor. Tan Dingfang's father failed to get in touch with the imperial examination and could only be a teacher in the countryside. Fortunately, he was well educated, and Tan Dingfang passed the imperial examination. After Tan Dingfang entered the imperial examination, he went to Rongcheng to work. Later, he made contributions to quelling the turmoil and was taken into the army by General Zhao.

This seems very simple life experience and past. The Emperor's hand of Long Jinwei had probably checked it over and over again many times. Otherwise, with the Emperor's suspicion, he would not trust Tan Dingfang so much.

Gu Mingzhu thought of throwing the letter in her hand into the warm cage, and the burning flames reflected into her clear eyes.

Tan Dingfang was able to hold the power and stood in such a conspicuous position. He had long thought that the court would investigate him, so Tan Dingfang's background was not easy to be seen as strange.

But not everyone is like Tan Dingfang. Just like her, in order to avoid being known to others, she should not be too arrogant in front of others to avoid attracting attention, so she would pretend to be an inconspicuous doctor and junior sister Jiang.

Is Qiu Hai like this? You should know that the "ship manager" in the Xiu family used the Xiu family to annex all the pirates along the coast of Shandong and could still control more than twenty meters of warships. Those with such ability would be just the son of a rudder craftsman, and would the Shen family be a small manager?

What she likes most is to reveal these secrets. When she thought of these, she just got up from the bed and was still wandering around her body and was swept away.

Gu Mingzhu stood up from the Nuan Demolition: "It's already midnight, and there will be a banquet in the mansion today. We need to prepare earlier."

After Gu Mingzhu put on her clothes, she walked towards the flower hall with Baotong, and helped her mother to take care of her housekeeper, many things were more convenient. Just like today, she invited Mrs. Zhang to bring her family to the banquet.

The Zhang family members have not been to Beijing for a long time, so they have calculated the etiquette when sending them a post, but they don’t know if Qiu Hai will come with Shen.

This is a good opportunity to come to the Gu family to find out the news.

...

Mrs. Zhang and Shen took a carriage to the Marquis of Huaiyuan.

Shen applied thick powder on his face, which barely covered his haggard face, but there was still a bit of fatigue in his eyes.

Mrs. Zhang whispered to Shen: "Sister-in-law, don't be too sad. Brother is still thinking about a solution, and there may not be a turning point."

Mrs. Zhang's eyes flashed when she said this, and a little nervous expression appeared on her face: "My marquis doesn't like me asking about the court on weekdays, but... this time it's different. When my child is stabilized, I will go to the marquis and ask the marquis to help clear the marquis."

When Mrs. Shen heard this, she thought about the suffering Mrs. Zhang suffered on her offspring and couldn't help but say, "It's hard for you. I just got pregnant and I have to worry about these things."

"Where is my sister-in-law?" said Mrs. Zhang, "Don't say we were going to be fine in the past. Now that you have become my sister-in-law and are my relatives. Now when I need me, I will do my best."

Shen looked at Mrs. Zhang's belly: "I hope your child will be smooth and it is best to win a man in one fell swoop. In this way, you will never have to be criticized by the lady."
