The news quickly spread from Chuhan City to nearby towns, then to Liuye Town, a famous town, and finally to Shangjia Village!
In Shangjia Village, Zhao Maimai has not entered the town these days, and is leading people to pour green water back. At this moment, the earth has just woken up, and the soil that has been frozen for the whole winter is beginning to melt. The water in the upper river is rippling, and everything is full of life. Read the full text of Zero Level Master.
Zhao Maimai drove his carriage back from the fields and was humming a tune leisurely when he saw Gu Quan and Cui Dazheng standing at the head of the village, followed by a carriage. When he saw Zhao Maimai coming, he quickly said hello from a distance.
"Hey, this isn't Young Master Gu. What brought you here?" Zhao Maimai quickly got out of the carriage, stopped the horse, stepped forward and clasped his fists, "But we haven't seen you for a long time!"
Gu Quan is now retired and has left all the work to Cui Da. Now Cui Da has become a well-known house builder in Chu Han. Gu Quan’s apprentice came to contact him about the charcoal matter, so Zhao Xiaomai met him When I saw the two of them, I was immediately in a daze.[
Gu Quan quickly said: "Executive member Zhao, there is something big going on here today. Judging from this situation, you don't seem to know yet?"
Zhao Maimai was stunned and quickly asked: "But something happened to Charcoal?"
Gu Quan waved his hand and said: "Zhao Yuanwai has been making charcoal for so many years. The charcoal is very useful. Besides, even if something happens to the charcoal, there is no need for me to come to the door in person. Come on, this is not the place to talk. We can Can't we go to the house and talk about it?"
Zhao Maimai said quickly: "Look at me, let's go!"
Gu Quan got on the carriage, Cui Da drove the carriage, and the three of them entered the village.
It is now noon, the smell of meat is wafting from the village, and from time to time, laughter and laughter can be heard coming from the yards on both sides of the road.
Gu Quan sat in the carriage, lifted the curtain and looked at the bluestone road in the village, sighing: "In just six years, I didn't expect that this small mountain village has changed so much!"
Zhao Xiaomai quickly said: "This bluestone road was just paved last year. The money contributed by my sister and the efforts of the villagers are shared by the whole village. Now we don't have to worry about rain or snow, even the rain boots You don’t even have to wear them!” Zhao Maimai pointed at the long bluestone road and said with a smile, “This road leads all the way to the school, the children are especially happy!”
Gu Quan nodded and said: "Miss Chu has indeed done a lot of good things for the people. Such people should be rewarded well!"
Zhao Xiaomai smiled and walked to the front of the house while talking about the changes in the past two years.
The house has not changed much from previous years, but now the toon trees are planted all around the house. New buds are just sprouting from the toon trees, full of life.
Zhao Xiaomai got off the carriage, and someone in the yard heard the noise and came to open the door. Someone inside shouted: "Madam, the master is back!"
After a while, Jin Yu led Pan'er out and was stunned when she saw Gu Quan and Cui Da.
"Mai Xiangniang, Mr. Gu is here, please quickly ask Mr. Gu to sit inside!" Zhao Xiaomai asked someone to take the reins of the horse from Cui Da's hand, while letting Gu Quan go into the yard.
"Mr. Gu, you are a rare guest, hurry up and sit in the room!" Jin Yu finally realized and quickly handed Pan'er to Xia Zhi, and introduced Gu Quan in with a smile.
Gu Quan nodded and entered the main room with Cui Da.
In the main room, Jin Yu served Li Zi with fruits, pears, dates and tea.
"Mrs. Zhao, don't be busy. I have something important to tell you two today!" Gu Quan said quickly.
Jin Yu stopped working and asked all the servants to go down. He quickly sat down and asked, "Mr. Gu, what is this important matter? Why do you need Mr. Gu to go there in person?" [
Gu Quan hesitated slightly and then said: "There is news from Chu Han City that the new emperor will ascend the throne on the 16th, but the queen is not a Chu girl. Not only that, there are even rumors that the imperial court is now crossing the river to demolish the bridge and destroy Chu.
The girl's life story has been revealed, and I heard that some ministers asked the emperor to divorce Miss Chu!"
When Jin Yu heard this, his fiery temper immediately came up. He rolled up his sleeves and shouted loudly: "Is there such a thing? The bunch of drunkards and rice sacks in the imperial court are all cowering when encountering things. The emperor's babbling
Chu Han begged our girl, now that things are over, why not burn bridges? What the hell is this? The latest chapter of Conquer the World!"
Zhao Maimai also said angrily: "The officials in the imperial court are all those who have studied in private schools. They don't even understand this. It's really sad!"
Gu Quan quickly said: "It is indeed inappropriate for the court to do this, so after I heard about it, I quickly informed you to see if we can do anything to help Miss Chu!"
Jin Yu asked again: "Then the prince agrees to this?"
Gu Quan shook his head and said: "It is said that there is no news yet. Most people in the court are opposed to Miss Chu being the queen, but some people are seconding the idea of Miss Chu being the queen. I heard that people in Pingliang and Lucheng have written petitions. I want to
In order to let the emperor know the voices of our people, some people in Chu Hancheng, Liuye Town, etc. even said that they would go to the capital in person and sit outside the palace to petition and ask the new emperor to appoint Miss Chu as the queen!"
Jin Yu was startled and asked, "Is there still such a thing?"
Gu Quan nodded and said: "I'm afraid that everyone in the famous town will know about it by now, so I'll let you know first to see what your attitude is!"
Before Gu Quan finished speaking, he saw Jin Yu wiping away tears.
"Mrs. Zhao, what are you..." Gu Quan was startled and asked quickly.
"Mr. Gu, we have been together for so many years, and I won't hide it from you. My family has just returned from the capital. You don't know where my sister is living and how she is living. Although she is protected by the prince, but
I can’t believe that there is a villain secretly setting me up. When I went there, A Bao disappeared after saying no, and the baby my sister just gave birth to. It is said that someone almost poisoned her during the bath. Tell me, this
What kind of life do you live in fear all day? Tell me, my sister has food and drink here. Why do you have to suffer that? Isn’t it because you like the prince, love the prince, and marry the prince? They dislike my sister.
Identity, what happened to my sister’s identity? Yes, my sister is from the royal family of the previous dynasty, but they also benefited from my sister. If it weren’t for my sister, then someone else would want to be the emperor and rebel against him.
Li Chao, let’s see what they do! My sister helped the court with drought relief and even gave up her family’s money. How many carts of grain were hauled a year ago? How many people from Chu Han have seen this person? You think these people’s consciences are gone.
What if the dog is eaten? If there is a real fight, how can they still pretend to discuss matters in the Jinluan Palace?" Jin Yu said bitterly, wiping away tears.
Gu Quan said with admiration: "Mrs. Zhao is indeed very knowledgeable. Those who claim to be well versed in poetry should be allowed to listen to Mrs. Zhao's opinions!"
"I won't tell them. If I tell them, I'm going to Niu Qin!" Jin Yu was filled with hatred. "They only see my sister's background, and they are only afraid that my sister will rebel against him. If they really continue to push like this,
If you go against it, you go against it!”
Gu Quan quickly said: "Mrs. Zhao must not act out of emotion. Mrs. Zhao, you are the closest relatives of Miss Chu. How many people in Chu Han are looking at Mrs. Zhao. Your words, Mrs. Zhao, are related to Miss Chu's safety in the capital."
!”
Zhao Xiaomai quickly pulled Jin Yu and said: "Look at you, you lose your sense of control when it comes to girls. Fortunately, you are guarding Mr. Gu today, not an outsider. If it were someone else, just what you said just now, you have to give
How much trouble this girl is causing!"
Jin Yu also raised his head and spoke more fiercely at this moment, and said quickly: "I'm so sorry, you see I'm talking nonsense again, that Mr. Gu, you think I'm talking nonsense!"
Gu Quan smiled and said: "Don't worry, Mrs. Zhao. We have been here for so many years and we still don't know who is who. I know Miss Chu's temperament, so I made a special trip to ask how we can help Chu."
girl!"
Jin Yu and Zhao Xiaomai looked at each other, then calmed down and thought about it. Finally, they were a little undecided, so they raised their eyes and asked: "Mr. Gu, do you think the people will anger the court if they just go like this?"
If the court thinks that these people are instigated by my sister, what should they do if they think that my sister is really rebelling?"
Gu Quan nodded and said: "I also have such concerns, but this time it is indeed the people who are going to the capital to petition for Miss Chu!"
Jin Yu sighed and said: "My sister has done so much, and now it seems that she has not done it in vain. There are still many people who repay kindness in this world! Mr. Gu, you have a lot of experience outside, please tell me what you think.
?”
Gu Quan slowly stroked his beard and said in a deep voice: "The pros and cons of this matter are equally divided. The concubine of the Lin family in Red Mansions!"
Jin Yu immediately asked in confusion: "Why?" [
"The people are petitioning. If the new emperor is a good emperor who cares about the people, he should listen to the people's voices. If the new emperor is afraid of Miss Chu's return to the country, he may bring death to Miss Chu. After all,
The new emperor is the real emperor!" Gu Quan whispered.
"So, it all depends on the attitude of the new emperor?" Jin Yu suddenly became happy, "My brother-in-law has nothing to say about my sister. He must have long wanted to make my sister the queen, just because of my sister's identity.
Now that the people are petitioning, wouldn’t it be a matter of course?”
Gu Quan shook his head and said: "Mrs. Zhao, I have heard and seen the new emperor's infatuation with Miss Chu, but people can change, especially after ascending to that position and controlling the world, before fame and fortune
, people will change! What’s more, the person who can sit in that seat may not be as simple as Mrs. Zhao thinks! "
Jin Yu was startled and felt a little unhappy, but she still said: "Mr. Gu, it's hard for others to tell. My brother-in-law can't. My brother-in-law even gave up the throne for my sister!"
Gu Quan pondered for a moment and then said: "If Mrs. Zhao is so sure, then in my opinion, we might give it a try. If the new emperor has already intended to make Miss Chu his queen, then we can go to the capital to petition.
I really helped the emperor and Miss Chu!"
When Jin Yu heard this, he immediately said happily: "In that case, let's quickly organize people to go to the capital. If it doesn't work, our family will pay for the food!"
Gu Quan quickly said: "Mrs. Zhao, I know you are generous, but you really can't be generous at this time. The people went to the capital voluntarily. They were grateful for Miss Chu's kindness and stood up for Miss Chu. If Mrs. Zhao intervened, the nature of it would be serious.
changed!"
Jin Yu was startled and thought about it for a while. Just when she didn't know what to do, Gu Quan smiled and said, "Miss Chu has been kind to so many people. It's time for them to repay their kindness. I came here today because I want to
Let’s explore Madam’s attitude, and remind Madam by the way, it’s enough that Madam knows about this matter, and the rest will naturally be arranged by someone!”
Zhao Xiaomai stepped forward and clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, Mr. Gu. We will definitely convey Mr. Gu's care for our sister!"
Gu Quan waved his hand and said: "No need to be polite, Member Zhao. Since we have finished speaking, we will go back first. Please remember that Member Zhao and Mrs. Zhao must not talk too much and do not do too much. Everything will be arranged by Shanren."
!”
Zhao Maimai and Jin Yu hurriedly responded. Seeing that it was getting late, they insisted on staying with Gu Quan for dinner, but Gu Quan declined repeatedly. In the end, Jin Yu asked Li Zi to pack some meat, vegetables and dry food for Gu Quan and his apprentice to take with them.
Eat on the road.
The two sent the master and apprentice to the entrance of the village. When the carriage was out of sight, the two walked back thoughtfully.
"Dad Maixiang, you said that mother is not at home. If mother is at home, we can still discuss it!" Jin Yu sighed, "I don't know what the situation is like on the girl's side. Although the girl mentioned confinement, her body
It’s still weak, and you still can’t get angry in a hurry!”
"Let's just listen to Mr. Gu. Mr. Gu is well-informed and has good connections outside. He is better than us country folk!" Zhao Maimai said.
Jin Yu could only nod his head and said: "Boss Shangguan is not in the town now, so we can only listen to Mr. Gu!"
When the two of them arrived home, they felt heavy in their hearts. They hadn't even eaten a few bites of food. They were planning to find someone to discuss the matter with, but who knew that Ma Yunfei actually came to the door.
"What is he here for?" Jin Yu put down his chopsticks and frowned.
Zhao Maimai quickly stood up and said: "Master Ma is the county magistrate after all. Besides, do you think it's possible that he is also here because of our girl's affairs?"
When Jin Yu heard this, he didn't dare to neglect, and quickly asked someone to invite Ma Yunfei in.
Ma Yunfei was dressed in green brocade clothes, with black hair tied up with a crown, and a handsome face. He was sitting in the main room. He thanked Li Zi for the hot tea in an amiable manner, then raised his eyes and smiled at Zhao Xiaomai and Jin Yu: "I'm sorry to bother you today, uncle, aunt."
Yes, there is just something that I have to tell my uncle and aunt about: Sin City!"
Before Zhao Maimai could speak, Jin Yu asked quickly: "Is it about my sister?"
Ma Yunfei raised his eyes and said in surprise: "So my aunt already knows about this? I wonder how my aunt knew about it?"
Jin Yu was about to say something when he was stopped by Zhao Xiaomai and said: "Someone in the village came back from the town, and there was a lot of rumors. I asked people to inquire about it, but it was not true. I am worried, Master Ma.
Here we are, Mr. Ma, you are from the imperial court and you must know everything in detail. I just want to ask, is my sister really going to be sent back to Chu Han?"
Ma Yunfei was surprised: "Who said that? Where can such a thing happen?"
Jin Yu was about to say something when he was stopped by Zhao Xiaomai again.
"It's been spread outside. Your aunt and I are very anxious, but we don't know what to do to help our sister. Hey, what do you think we should do?" Zhao Xiaomai scratched his head and said.
"So, uncle and aunt don't know about the people going to the capital to petition?" Ma Yunfei asked tentatively.
"Petition? Who is going to petition? What are you asking for?" Zhao Xiaomai asked quickly.
Jin Yu also immediately pretended to know nothing.
"Since uncle and aunt don't know about this, forget it. Uncle, aunt, the town is very chaotic these days. Uncle and aunt should stay in Shangjia Village and don't go out!" After Ma Yunfei finished speaking, he couldn't help but glance into the back room.
At first glance, he seemed to be looking for someone, but he quickly withdrew his gaze and said, "Uncle and aunt, don't worry, the fact that Miss Chu is going to be divorced and returned to Chu Han is purely a rumor, and uncle and aunt must not believe it! In this case, Yun Fei
Let’s go back first and won’t disturb my uncle and aunt!”
Zhao Maimai immediately stood up and said, "Why don't you stay and have some food? We'll just eat the entire meal!"
Ma Yunfei quickly waved his hand and said goodbye with a smile.
After sending Ma Yunfei away, Jin Yu complained: "Why didn't you let me speak just now?"
"I don't know you yet. You are very outspoken. What if you spill the beans? What if something happens in the future? Will it bring trouble to Mr. Gu? Although Mr. Ma has some connections with our family, don't forget it.
Yes, because of the marriage, we are already somewhat estranged from his family. I think Ma Yunfei might have known something, otherwise he broke off the engagement with Mai Xiang without saying anything!" Zhao Xiaomai said in a low voice.
"When you said this, I remembered that when the old man of the Ma family came to break off the engagement, Mr. Ma heard about it and came hurriedly and apologized to us, but then there was no news after that. I felt so sad
It's strange, it turns out that Mr. Ma knows what Mai Xiang is thinking? What do you think I can say about Mai Xiang?" Jin Yu angrily slapped her thigh.
"It's been so long, what are you talking about? Think about it, Mai Xiang has someone else in mind, and now he has gone to the capital. What if the Ma family thought we were deliberately playing tricks on them that day? This matter
It’s really hard to say!” Zhao Maimai sighed, “So it’s better to have less to worry about than to have more to worry about. It’s also good for Mr. Ma that we do this. He knows less, so if anything happens, there’s no need to implicate him!”
Jin Yu nodded and said: "You did the right thing, I was rash!"
Zhao Xiaomai glanced at Jin Yu and said: "Mr. Gu is right, because sister, not to mention Quan Chuhan, the whole world is looking at our family now. Whatever our family does, it is what our sister does, so
You must be cautious! From today on, we will order the long-term workers in the village not to go to the town for the time being. We will just wait and wait and see what happens!"
Jin Yu quickly responded.
