Gu Yuan nodded, looked down at the person who was still awake, entered the room and put her on the bed.
Seeing his cautious appearance, his mother also calmed down.
After twisting the quilt and going out, Gu Yuan only gave hurried instructions and went to the study.
At the same time, the Duke of Jingguo and Jiang Mingxuan also received the news.
The latter is not mentioned for now, but the former is a little more thoughtful.
After dinner, the family sat in the living room and had tea. Listening to the report from the boy from another courtyard, they began to chatter.
"Did Sanlang bring someone back again? I heard they went back south together. Could it be that he asked someone to be responsible?"
The person who spoke was the Second Madam, who loved to watch the excitement. As soon as she finished speaking, her son Gu Qing clapped her hands, "No, I heard that I hold her in my arms when I get in and out of the car, and I don't let anyone watch me."
"Tsk tsk..."
Everyone's teeth were sore.
Duke Jingguo and his wife, Mrs. Li, were calm.
My son himself knows what virtue is. To put it nicely, it is considerate, but in fact it is protecting food.
Don't let others touch your own things, whether they are people or things.
I don’t know how I developed this virtue.
"But if third brother wants to marry Miss Jiang, I'm afraid it will be difficult for the Jiang family!" Gu Ming said.
It's not that the Jiang family doesn't agree. I'm afraid that as long as the Duke's office reveals this intention, the Jiang family will be able to send people there in packages.
However, the Jiang family is the imperial concubine's natal family, so they are afraid that it will be difficult to break off this relationship in the future, so they can use this to manipulate Jiang Shanshan.
What's more, he still has a younger brother in his hands.
"As far as I know, Miss Jiang's brother and sister intend to leave the Jiang family. They are just relatives. If her brother can support the family, there should be no problem."
Gu Qing shook his feet and said.
He was lying crooked in the chair and had no straight appearance, so he was given a lecture by the second lady.
"Let's leave the Jiang family aside for the moment. What's important is how their siblings separated from the Jiang family. No matter what, the Jiang family has indeed raised them for more than ten years. This cannot be justified."
Gu Shu looked at the problem more deeply, and he vaguely felt that they should have their own plan.
It might not be appropriate for them to act rashly.
Everyone in the hall started talking.
Duke Jingguo also frowned. He really looked down on the Jiang family. It was so ugly back then, and it was all thanks to a woman for so many years.
It is said that Jiang Yu, the eldest son of the Jiang family, was a man of extraordinary magnificence, and how he treated the virtuous and corporal.
In fact, he is just a man who flatters the emperor in front of the emperor.
I don’t know how many people came up with just a skirt belt.
It’s really shameless!
"The Jiang family has nothing to worry about." Li said suddenly.
"Oh?" Duke Jingguo looked at her, leaned closer and said, "How do you say that?"
The two of them didn't speak loudly, and others were talking and didn't listen to what they said.
"Why do you ask so much? Just take care of your son. I will take care of these things myself."
"Then isn't this also my son's business..."
Li Shi glanced at him sideways and successfully blocked his mouth.
She frowned slightly, but she was thinking about another thing.
The night is darker.
Early the next morning, a simple carriage drove out of the Duke of Jingguo's mansion. After walking around two streets in a low-key manner, it stopped in front of a study.
A man wearing a curtain came down and walked into the study.
"You can see what you want." The shopkeeper said with a yawn, without even raising his head.
The person wearing the curtain stretched out her hand, and a piece of black jade appeared in her hand.
The shopkeeper paused and looked up.
I could only see a vague outline through the curtain.
"Is the Master here?"
"this……"
The shopkeeper didn't know how to answer for a moment, but he heard a voice coming from behind the curtain.
"come in!"
The man wearing the curtain retracted his hand and walked behind him.
Inside, the old master was making tea.
When the curtain was removed, the man was seen kneeling on the ground respectfully and making a big salute.
"Master!" she called.
He raised his head and saw that it was Mr. Li.
The old master paused, his eyes hurting, "Just call me Master."
"Once a teacher, always a father, I believe they think so too."
"I'm not worthy of being a master, let alone being on par with my father."
He couldn't even find their bones.
"Master, you are serious. This is not your fault, but..."
Li pursed her lips and lowered her eyes when she touched the injury on the old man's face.
Tighten your palms.
She recalled what she looked like when she was young. The world-famous great scholar and master of military art, Yu Gong, had seven disciples.
They are all outstanding talents who left their families and joined Mr. Yu's family, learning and growing together for ten years.
After returning home from the mountain, most of them also made a name for themselves.
The most prosperous among them was Xue Yan of the Xue family. When the Liao Kingdom defeated Yanmen Pass, he planned to trap and kill the opponent's 200,000 troops.
Just a tragic description.
This battle not only saved Yanmen Pass, but also severely damaged the vitality of the Liao Kingdom. It took more than ten years to recover. During this period, there were constant frictions. It was not until a few years ago that it was tricked by Gu Yuan again and it returned to peace.
However, the seven people under Yu Gong's sect died and were injured after that, and now only one of her is left.
The source is the "Art of Thousands of War" that was used to defeat the Liao Kingdom.
This is a military book written by Xue Yan and his fiancée Lin Zhilan. It not only records military formations but also weapons diagrams.
Such treasures are not only coveted by enemy countries, but also by people in our own country.
It was also because of this that the tragedy of the Xue family occurred.
The seven members of Yu Gong's family did not escape. Li's survival was only because she had never shown her face, and she was a child raised by the family in the mountains. She left the mountain gate earlier and changed her identity to hide.
It's just that identity can be hidden, but it couldn't be done before.
Those years and memories have become unforgettable scars for the master and disciple.
I remember it vividly and hate it every day!
"Master is very lucky to have found a son and a daughter from my younger sister." Mrs. Li wiped away her tears and put away the memories of the past.
The old master shook his head, with a smile in his eyes.
"It's not that I found them, it's that they found me."
"oh?"
Li was a little surprised.
After talking to the old master, he smiled and said, "That child looks really smart, and he looks exactly like the junior sister from back then."
The old master also showed nostalgia. He sighed and looked at his former apprentice, now the Duke of Jingguo.
"You didn't come here just to get to know me, right?"
"Yes, I came here today to ask the master if he has any arrangements for the two siblings?"
"If you don't just be your royal wife, why are you getting involved?"
"I don't dare to hide it from the master. A Yuan has a special relationship with that boy Shanshan. I just want to sit back and ignore it, but I'm afraid he won't agree."
"Gu Yuan?" The old master seemed not to have expected it.
He looked at his apprentice intently, "Chang Hui, I don't care which family you marry now, or how powerful you are, but no matter what, they are the children of your junior sister."
Mrs. Li's eyes widened and she said angrily: "Master, I am married and am in power, but I am not the kind of person who even takes advantage of my own children."
