Chapter 298 Acting
The next day.
There are eleven days left until the eldest princess’ coming-of-age ceremony.
Li Gongqin was very unpopular with the government.
He, the Minister of Rites, had his betrothal letter for marrying the eldest princess of the He family blocked. Not only was it blocked, but it was also blocked in different ways. The amount of the betrothal gift was wrong, and the color was not festive... Eventually, all the honorable excuses ran out, and even "there was a typo" and "
I have come up with reasons such as "the font is not neat". If this is popular in the Hou Mansion, then something is wrong.
Li Gongqin was helpless. Even if He Yuanhao was difficult to deal with, as long as the Queen Mother gave the order, he would have to bite the bullet and deal with it. Queen Mother Li Xuanzi was his aunt. Whether it was the status in the court or the status in the family, they were all over him. It can be said that
It's three hundred and sixty degrees, all-round restraint.
Li Gongqin knew that he would be in trouble wherever he went, and that he would not be beaten by He Yuanhao again, so he specially called Li Jin to go with him in an attempt to get rid of He Yunxiao's relationship and let He Yunxiao, the future prince-in-law, help to accommodate him.
After all, Li Gongqin never expected that He Yunxiao would not be at home.
The Li family father and son sat in the living room of He Mansion for an hour. Not to mention Wu Qinghou, not even the maid was seen, and the tea they drank was cold.
Li Jin was always upright in front of his father. At this moment, he took out his book and pretended to be shaking his head.
""Drumbeating". Beat the drums and drill them, and use the troops enthusiastically. It is difficult for me to walk alone in the city and canal of the earth."
Li Gongqin took a sip of the bitter herbal tea and said, "It's 'I am traveling south alone'."
Li Jin continued.
""There Are Foxes". There are foxes in Qiliang."
Li Gongqin said helplessly: "That character is pronounced 'sui'."
"Miss Ginger!"
Li Gongqin said speechlessly: "There is no such thing..."
"My daughter, Jiang Wuyou, pays homage to Lord Shangshu, Mr. Li." Jiang Wuyou led someone to bring hot tea and saluted.
After all, Li Gongqin is the Minister of Etiquette, a second-rank official, so it’s hard to ignore him. Mr. Marquis and his wife are unable to show up, so they can only let Jiang Wuyou lead others to serve him.
When Li Gongqin raised his eyes, he saw a woman as beautiful as a fairy standing in front of him. This woman had an extraordinary appearance, and she seemed vaguely familiar. Li Gongqin's expression was stagnant, and he asked doubtfully: "Are you..."
Li Jin rushed to answer: "Dad, this is Jiang Wuyou, He Yunxiao's new wife."
Li Gongqin suddenly realized. He remembered who Jiang Wuyou was. Last year, this woman even entered the palace to perform a dance. But then, his face turned dark again.
If His Highness Xiaoyue wants to marry He Yunxiao, doesn't it mean she has to live with Jiang Wuyou...
The eldest princess and the prostitute...
How could this be true throughout the ages!
However, he quickly thought of his aunt's original words.
"In order to prevent Qing Qian from regretting it, this matter must be done as quickly as possible! Li Gongqin, you can think of the method and use it as you please. I will have my grandson today next year! Otherwise, you will wait for the family law to serve you!
"
Wiping away the cold sweat, Li Gongqin didn't care much anymore in order to let the Queen Mother hold his grandson on time.
"Miss Jiang, may I ask if the Marquis is here?"
Jiang Wuyou smiled and said, "My parents are still taking a nap. When they wake up, Wuyou will immediately tell them that the adults are here."
Li Gongqin looked embarrassed. How could he believe such words? So he forced a smile and said: "Li has something important to discuss with the Marquis. Please ask the girl to disturb them."
Jiang Wuyou continued to smile and said, "Sir, please wait a moment. According to past habits, my parents will be up soon."
The father and son waited in the Hou Mansion, but no one came, so Li Gongqin had to let Li Jin go out to look for He Yunxiao.
As a party involved, He Yunxiao was allowed to know about the "Xiaoyue Marriage Incident".
However, on this matter, the cousin and the aunt had different opinions. The cousin said: There is no need to deliberately let him know. The aunt said: Be sure to tell He Yunxiao and convey it clearly. Also, let Xiao'er go in without incident.
Come and see me.
Being sandwiched between the two of them, it was difficult for Li Gongqin.
…
Li Jin was charged with the important task of finding He Yunxiao, so he naturally did not dare to be careless.
Based on his understanding of He Yunxiao, there are only three places where He Yunxiao often goes. One is the Imperial Palace, one is Chunfeng Tower, and one is Antler Academy.
Li Jin first went to Chunfeng Tower to look around, but couldn't find anyone, and then went to Lujiao Academy to look for Fan Ziruo.
With Li Jin's status, it was easy for him to meet Fan Ziruo. He entered the door of Fan's house, knocked on the door, and was led to find someone.
The only variable is that the person who opened the door for Li Jin is named Hongshe.
Hongshe led Li Jin into the unattended living room of Fan Mansion, and then said: "Master, please stay here later. I will inform my lady immediately."
Li Jin thanked him and waited with peace of mind.
There is no need to say much about Hong She's business ability. After she sneaked into Fan's house, she quickly became involved with the maids. Even Fan Ziruo had a good impression of this rather smart maid.
After stabilizing Li Jin, Hongshe immediately reported the news to He Yunxiao.
It is absolutely unacceptable for a man to try to touch his son's woman.
Since Hongshe could not contact He Yunxiao immediately, she had to have the letter delivered to the Hou Mansion.
The result of the letter reaching the Hou Mansion was that it fell into Jiang Wuyou's hands.
Jiang Wuyou opened the letter and read: There is a thief in Fan's house, Young Master, come quickly.
Jiang Wuyou vaguely knew about Fan Ziruo. When she saw this letter, she felt bad. He Yunxiao's woman was her sister. No matter what, nothing could happen to her.
Therefore, under Jiang Wuyou's instruction, the Yan State spies with force in Yin Jing City and around Fan Mansion were all moving towards Fan Mansion, and she herself also arrived at the gate of Fan Mansion in the Marquis Mansion's carriage.
…
At this time, He Yunxiao was in a hiding place of the Dagger Gang, helping Pang Jian, the leader of the Dagger Gang, to heal his injuries.
After being treated with medicinal baths and healed by He Yunxiao, Pang Jian has woken up.
Pang Jian is still very weak now, but his gratitude to He Yunxiao cannot be expressed in words.
"Brother He, your great kindness and kindness will never be forgotten by me, Pang Jian. From now on, not to mention the short sword gang, even my life, Pang Jian's, will belong to you, brother."
"Master Pang's words are serious." He Yunxiao concentrated on doing exercises. Performing exercises for others to heal their injuries was also an excellent opportunity to practice the control of internal strength. He Yunxiao had been stimulated recently, so naturally he would not miss this opportunity to train himself.
"Brother, don't talk too much. I, Pang Jian, have made up my mind. Cough! Cough!"
"Leader Pang, stop talking."
"Brother, you will be the gang leader from now on. Cough!"
He Yunxiao secretly sighed. No one will listen to you if you talk nicely, so don't blame him for putting on airs and showing off.
He Yunxiao's face turned cold, and his ninth-grade strength suddenly came out, and he said sternly: "Pang Jian, since you recognize me as the gang leader, how dare you talk back to the gang leader?"
When Pang Jian heard He Yunxiao's words, he was not angry but happy.
Who is He Yunxiao? A twenty-year-old ninth-level genius warrior! Such a person will definitely have a bright future. In addition, he has a profound background, many connections, and no shortage of money. If he is willing to be the leader of the Short Sword Gang, the rise of the Short Sword Gang will be limited to today and tomorrow.
Only years!
"The gang leader said it well, but Pang Jian talked back and punished himself with a slap in the face!"
After saying that, Pang Jian actually hit himself with a palm, which made the corner of his mouth bleed.
Everyone in He Yunxiao was dumbfounded. What happened to this man? He was injured and abused himself. You think it was too easy to help him heal, right?
As a gang leader, you still need to have some airs.
"It won't happen again."
Suddenly, there was a rapid knock on the door.
"Come in." He Yunxiao said.
Pang Ce jumped in and quickly reported to He Yunxiao: "The acting gang leader, the brothers responsible for guarding Fan's house, came to report that there are a large number of unknown people surrounding Fan's house."
Pang Jian said in a deep voice: "Cer, Brother He will be the only leader of our Dagger Gang from now on! You must not call him by the wrong name again."
Pang Ce was stunned for a moment, then said slightly dissatisfied: "Yes."
He Yunxiao was very anxious when he heard that something was going on in Fan Mansion.
But now as a gang leader, he still needs to show off.
"Brothers are like brothers and sisters, and women are like clothes. Although there is something going on in Fan's house, it has to wait until I finish healing Brother Pang Jian's injuries before dealing with it."
Everyone in the Dagger Gang who were a little dissatisfied with He Yunxiao just now are completely convinced now.
Pang Ce even said: "Brothers, if we can't even protect the gang leader's woman, what reason do we have to continue to stay in the Dagger Gang? Follow me!"
Pang Ce led the three or five dagger gang brothers who stayed here and rushed out immediately.
He Yunxiao forced himself to stay calm and perform the whole scene, otherwise all his previous efforts would be wasted.
After working for Pang Jian for another week, he stood up and left.
As soon as he went out, he did not hesitate to perform the fastest Qinggong. He used his inner strength desperately, and his whole body turned into a gust of wind and swept towards Fan Mansion.
Chapter completed!
