Chapter 208: The face of the family is dark
Zhou Nianzhen's words were extremely calm. Even Liao Nishang was shocked by his calm shamelessness. In the end, she had to roll her eyes speechlessly to express her feelings. She wanted to say that he was talented in business, but she still held it back.
"I still have to bother my aunt in the overall situation this time."
"……Um."
She also understood that the new emperor was the one with a sweet sword in his mouth, and his usual words were "I". However, only when he asked for his own wishes, the corners of his mouth seemed to be sweet and greasy as if he was smearing honey.
Therefore, even if he does not want to compete for his strengths and weaknesses in this matter, he is not ready to let go of a thug like himself easily.
On the day when the emperor and the fifth queen were welcomed, Jizhou City was extremely lively, especially in the casino, and many people talked about who was the first to enter the palace, as if he was the one who controlled the overall situation.
The gambling shop was making noises and when they were placing bets, all the families also opened their eyes and stared at the news. When they heard that the bride's sedan chair stopped at the palace gate, Shen Mingze's face looked quite ugly. He had asked Liao Nishang a few days ago because of this.
Although she didn't say it clearly, she didn't refuse. What is she trying to do now?
"Father……"
Shen Qingfei looked at Shen Mingze's gradually changing face and realized that something was wrong. When she wanted to ride a horse, she suddenly saw a servant running over hurriedly: "Report to Master, Li Xingru from the Li family is the first to enter the palace."
When he heard the familiar and unfamiliar word Li Xingru, the faces of the Shen family changed, and the teacup in Li Mingze's hand was broken by him, and the blue and white fragments were stained with his blood.
At the same time, the Pei family also received similar news, and even many high-ranking officials and nobles had already learned about this news. However, compared to Shen Mingze's anger, Duke Pei's face did not see much surprise, as if the result of this incident was as expected.
When Gu Jinshu heard the news, a few chuckled in her eyes. Thinking of the fact that she asked Wen Ge to place a bet, the expression on her face became softer, as if gold ingots fell from the sky. And just as she snickered, a teasing voice came over: "Sister, what happy thing has she remembered?"
Gu Jinhe's voice sounded a little lazy. When Gu Jinshu looked up, she saw that others were already lying on the short couch not far away. She was young and had a little bit of dusk energy, as if she had less vitality that young people should have.
"What's wrong with you?"
Gu Jinshu did not answer his question, but instead approached him a few steps, staring at him with his eyes, as if he wanted to see something tricky from him. However, Gu Jin and the urinating person would not act too much, but just shook their heads to show that they didn't have much trouble.
If she didn't know that he was facing gambling outside, she wouldn't have forced people too much. However, when she went to look for people that day, she did not find anyone. Now she finally fell into the trap and would definitely not miss this opportunity to ask questions.
"Did you lose money?"
Although the maids did not find out too much, they heard that he went to and from several gambling houses and thought that the loss was not a small amount. Could it be that he gave all the money he had paid for over the years to the gold-swalking beast!
Gu Jinhe raised his eyes and looked at Wen Ge standing not far away. His eyes were already showing a few threats visible to the naked eye. He naturally knew that these maids around his elder sister were He Bingxing. He couldn't hold anything in his mouth.
"Is this considered anger?"
After the siblings were together for a long time, she could not know his temper. If the eyebrows and eyes were filled with anger, she might think about how to trick Wen Ge! After all, he has never been a well-behaved and obedient person, and he can be said to be very nervous.
"No, it's just the corners of your eyes."
Gu Jinhe smiled and calmed down for a moment, but Gu Jinshu did not press on step by step, but just said lightly: "If you have something, don't keep it in your heart. You can talk to me. Although your elder sister has no other ability, she can protect you."
"……Really?"
Seeing the corners of his eyes suspiciously, Gu Jinshu pulled the corners of his lips a few times, and finally expressed his feelings after his repeated inquiries, which made people leave with a smile with great satisfaction.
On that day, Gu Jinshu had just arrived at the Ye family and was called to the study by Ye Yuqin: "Is Jinhe okay recently?"
"There is no big difference from usual except for going out."
She found that since the issue of identity was opened, there had been more things about him going outside. She didn't know if he was really obsessed with gambling and couldn't extricate himself. She wanted to ask someone to investigate in detail, but was worried that this matter would fall into the ears of those who were interested and that bad rumors would be heard.
"I have been busy in the court recently. If there is anything wrong, you must inform me as soon as possible." Even if it is not a child born by Gu Ming, he still has the blood of his Ye family, so he naturally cannot let the child take a detour. Thinking of this, he suddenly said, "Have your father's attitude of bringing him changed?"
“Not.”
Listening to his niece's answer, Ye Yuqin's expression paused slightly. If Gu Mingsheng was not good to the child, he would naturally take the person away. After all, few people had such a mind and could tolerate such stains, but they didn't expect that this person could actually be treated as nothing had happened.
"I wanted to take this opportunity to bring you and Jinhe back to the Ye family, but I didn't expect him to be calm." Gu Mingsheng has achieved this. If he takes the person away again, would it seem too damning? So this plan can only be temporarily shelved.
“He is really surprising.”
Gu Jinshu didn't know why he kept pretending to be confused, which made her begin to doubt what her parents had experienced and could not care about it like this.
"Don't show it around your grandmother."
"good."
The uncle and nephew talked a few more words, and Ye Yuqin asked someone to send Gu Jinshu to the old lady's residence. As soon as she entered, she heard the old lady's complaining voice: "He called you to the study early in the morning, and he didn't worry about you being hungry."
"I used breakfast to start from home, how could I be hungry?" Gu Jinshu held his arm and couldn't help but smile and whisper, her soft voice mixed with a bit of cuteness. The old lady touched her hand, "Jinhe didn't come today? Could this child have grown up and won't kiss me anymore?"
"He has been studying hard recently! How could his grandmother say so seriously?" Seeing her keep muttering her brother who was a little unlucky in her ear, Gu Jinshu hurriedly explained a few words. She didn't expect that what she got was the old lady's sigh, "I see, he is just disconnected from me. His past stickiness made your uncle envious!"
