Traveling from Nanchu Capital to Daliang Capital, by water plus land, would take more than twenty days at the fastest. Ye Guixue has three months of vacation. If you calculate this, he can live in Nanchu Capital for more than a month.
Su Rong was thinking in her mind, wondering what the purpose of Ye Guixue coming to Beijing at this time? Is it really as simple as sending her little niece off?
A few days ago, when she left Jiangzhou, several groups of people from Nan Chu had already killed her along the way. The King of Nan Chu was in charge of the Nan Chu Dynasty. Even if the Nangong family and clan were in control, the news would not be concealed to death.
He couldn't get it either. If that were the case, he, the king, would have done it long ago, and he wouldn't have been driven down from the royal rank till now. And he hasn't sent anyone here yet. Could it be that this night Guixue was sent by him?
people?
But what happened to the marriage between Nangong's family and Ye Xiang's Mansion? It is not ruled out that the two mansions joined forces to deprive the King of Nan Chu of his royal power. That Ye Guixue's intention to come may also be dangerous to her.
Su Rong thought for a while, but couldn't think of a reason, so she looked at Fengling.
Fengling seemed to know what she was thinking, and shook her head, saying that she had only found out so much information now, and that there were more secret information that she could not find out in such a short time.
Duan Hua looked at Fei Ling and then at Su Rong. She always felt that the two of them were playing dumb, but she didn't know.
It was not a secret that Su Rong went to the Duke Protector's Palace to break off her engagement. She did not hide it on purpose, and the Duke Protector's Palace would not hide it on purpose either. Therefore, after she left the Duke Protector's Palace, many people from all over the capital came to inquire about the news.
Then I got the news.
The first person to get the news was the East Palace. The secret guard reported the news to Yan Huisheng. Yan Huisheng nodded and said he understood.
He thought that Su Rong would act straightforwardly and break off the engagement when she said so. This was in line with her temperament and she would not be sloppy in deciding matters. But because of this, people would also know that she was cold-blooded and did not take the love between her children too seriously.
Heavy.
He put down the memorial and thought silently, wondering whether it was Su Rong's nature or whether it was due to Xie Yuan's teachings. But no matter what, she was able to let go of Zhou Gu, which showed that she was not a person who was easily impressed.
And for Bizhou Gu, if he were to be with her, the future would be different.
He rubbed his brows and asked the secret guard, "Where is Zhou Gu? What are you doing now?"
The secret guard immediately said: "Young Master Zhou left the palace and went to Prince Ruian's Mansion. He called Mr. Xie and went to the Yingke Square to drink together."
Yan Huisheng did not expect that Zhou Gu and Xie Lin had disliked each other for a long time, but now they were on good terms. He nodded and waved for the secret guard to retreat.
The secret guard handed over his hand and said, "I still have something to report."
"Huh? Say."
The secret guard said: "The second young master Ye from the Prime Minister's Mansion of Nanchu came to the capital today with his little niece. Because Nangong Le, the daughter of the Nangong family, is about to marry the eldest son of the Prime Minister's Mansion, the wife of the Prime Minister's Mansion was worried and sent the little girl to Daliang.
I will take care of him for a while in the Chengguo Duke's mansion. The second young master Ye takes three months off so that he can stay in the capital with his niece for some time."
Yan replied, "Oh?", "Ye Guixue?"
"Exactly."
Yan Hui said thoughtfully, "Okay, I understand."
The secret guard retreated.
Nanchu is a vassal state of Daliang, with border trade, tea, salt, horses, and in-laws exchanged. During the reign of the late emperor, Nanchu had two intentions for several years. This was because the late king of Southern Chu at that time couldn't stand the growing weakness of Daliang. However, because of the
The Crown Prince of Nan Chu fell in love with Princess Zhenmin, but instead brought the relationship back to Daliang. After the death of the previous king of Southern Chu, the Crown Prince of Nan Chu came to the throne. Although Princess Zhenmin did not marry the Crown Prince of Nan Chu in the end, because she died in the Wei Dynasty,
Therefore, the prince of Southern Chu hated Wei so much that the vassal state of Southern Chu never left Daliang and remained a vassal state of Daliang.
Therefore, marriages between Nanchu and Daliang are not interfered with, but even so, it is limited to the people on the border, not so much to the mansions of the two countries. After all, they are too far apart, thousands of miles apart, so it is not an empty number, but a real number.
The mountains are so far away.
But at that time, the daughter of Daliang Chengguo's palace and the son of Nanchu Ye's family were in love. This marriage went through the clear path of the late emperor and the late king of Nanchu, and it was still done. It was also to ease the relationship between the two countries.
.
Because the journey was too long, Cheng Guo Gong's daughter who was married outside never came back to visit her. Unexpectedly, he now sent his granddaughter back, or Ye Guixue did it in person.
At this time, what a coincidence.
Yan Huisheng thought about it in his heart. After the ministers from the East Palace came to discuss it, he interrupted his thoughts and continued busy with the matter at hand.
And throughout the capital, within half a day, the news that Su Rong and Zhou Gu had broken off their engagement had spread.
The main reason is that the engagement between the two has attracted much attention. After hearing that Zhou Gu had a fiancée, everyone was very curious about Su Rong. After she came to the capital, she stayed at the princess mansion and was treated as a guest of honor, which made people even more curious.
She reached the top, but before anyone could see what she looked like, it was reported that she went to the Protector's Mansion alone to cancel Zhou Gu's marriage.
The capital suddenly exploded across the country.
For Beijing, this is the first major event after the scientific examination.
If Zhou Gu had broken off the engagement to Su Rong, it wouldn't have been so popular. People would have thought that sooner or later, this inappropriate marriage would be canceled by the Duke Protector's Office. However, it was Su Rong who came to break off the engagement to Zhou Gu.
But it was extremely shocking.
How many women are eager to join the family of the Duke Protector and marry into such a prestigious family. Especially for a little concubine, this marriage is even more expensive.
Who would have thought that Su Rong would take the initiative to break off the engagement?
Everyone was talking, and the limelight was suddenly directed at the Princess Mansion. According to ordinary people's guesses, the Princess Mansion must have been involved in this. Princess Duanhua and Princess Qingping may have figured out how to detain Su Rong in the mansion, clearly against their will.
She's so nice, but he secretly coerces her and messes with Huang, right?
There were many such sounds, and as soon as the prince-in-law came down from the office, they reached his ears. The prince-in-law was silent for a long time.
The prince-in-law knows best whether his own family is involved in Huang's case, but if he says no, others don't believe it. If he hadn't been in contact with Su Rong and knew what Qingping and Duanhua were doing recently, he wouldn't believe it either.
It's not the work of either of them.
He drove back to his house and saw Qingping who was very angry after hearing the news outside. He had no choice but to comfort her, "Just say what others say. You won't be slapped on the head for things you haven't done before."
Did you do it a lot? Why are you still angry this time?"
Qingping gave the consort an angry look, "Even if someone presses your head a hundred times for something you haven't done, you will still be very angry and can't get used to it."
The prince-in-law held her hand, smiled and comforted, "Don't be angry, it's nothing. What's the cause, what's the result. It's because Duan Hua has been pestering Zhou Gu too much in the past few years, that led to today's remarks."
Qingping snorted and blamed him, "It's all your fault for not teaching your daughter well."
The prince-in-law admitted, "Yes, it's all my fault. I didn't teach him well, so don't be angry."
Qing Ping was very easy to coax, especially her consort, who could coax her with just a few words. She immediately became happy and lost her anger. She said to her consort: "If you ask me, Zhou Gu is not good at all. Su Rong is the best choice to break off the engagement."
, I have to send someone to ask her if she wants to celebrate her successful breakup of the engagement?"
Prince Consort: "..."
He wanted to say, but what he said was too unconscionable. Isn't Zhou Gu good? Then what kind of thing is good?
Qingping added: "Anyway, I've already suffered a lot of notoriety. If I don't celebrate, I won't feel comfortable." After she finished speaking, she called someone over and ordered, "Go and ask Su Rong if she wants to celebrate tonight.
?”
The maid responded and immediately went to ask.
Not long after, the maid came back and smiled and replied, "Back to princess, Miss Su Qi said to celebrate, thank you and the consort, she and Fengling will follow the princess here later. I also asked you to prepare more wine, and I will accompany you tonight.
Drink freely.”
Qing Ping Da Le, "Good! It's settled like this. Go and order the kitchen to cook a table of dishes. Then go to the wine cellar and take out all the good wines I have collected. No, go to the guest shop and buy those drunken flowers.
, buy a few more jars and come back."
The maid must have gone immediately.
Zhou Gu and Xie Lin were still sitting in the private room in the guest room drinking.
Xie Lin had already taken three hangover pills, and he still had the last bottle of wine left. He couldn't drink any more, so he begged Zhou Gu for mercy, "Brother Zhou, brother, brother, please forgive me! I can't drink any more."
Already."
He has already vomited twice. If he drinks again, even if he can't die with hangover pills today, he will have to drink them to death. He may become nauseous when he drinks alcohol in the future.
Zhou Gu didn't take a sobering pill, nor did he vomit. After drinking five jars, his eyebrows were still clear. Seeing Xie Lin's unpromising look, he felt that it was about the same, so he let him go, "Okay, you don't need to drink anymore."
.”
Seeing him spitting, Xie Lin finally breathed a sigh of relief. No matter how good the wine was, he couldn't stand it when he drank it this way.
He had a terrible headache, as if it was going to explode, but he took too many hangover pills, which kept him awake and would not fall asleep after being drunk. He looked at Zhou Gu and gave him a thumbs up, "You have such a drinking capacity.
, how did you practice it? You can do it."
Zhou Gu picked up the last unopened jar of wine in front of him and the last unopened jar of wine in front of Xie Lin, stood up, and said, "Let's go."
Xie Lin stood up unsteadily and said, "There are still two jars left, aren't you going to drink?"
"Take it back and give it to my grandparents to drink." Zhou Gu was not polite at all. He didn't let Xie Linhua take the wine away just because it was the wine he bought with his money. He made arrangements for it directly.
Xie Lin nodded, "Okay, you should respect the old Duke and Princess Sheng'an."
Zhou Gu walked very steadily, left the private room, went downstairs, passed the counter, and ordered the shopkeeper, "Send him a car back."
The shopkeeper responded quickly and asked him again, "Then you..."
"I don't need to send it." Zhou Gu walked out of the door, threw the two jars of wine into the bag in front of the saddle, took off the reins, got on the horse, and left directly.
Continue to lie down, saving the manuscript and consuming it again, woo woo woo...
My dears, don’t keep your monthly passes and countdown to the end of the month!!! I love you!
