After Gu Qiancheng returns to the capital, it is indeed a troublesome matter where to live, but it is not something that needs to be considered now. They are still a month away from the capital, so they have plenty of time to think about it.
After getting the longevity fruit, Qin Jiyan and Gu Qiancheng stopped running around. Although they didn't have to rush, they didn't delay on the way. They originally planned to wait outside for three to five months, so they gave up on attracting this year's imperial examination students.
, but now that there is an opportunity, Qin Jiyan is not going to let it go.
He doesn't have to interfere in the imperial examination, but the fifth prince's people can't interfere either. Even if it is determined that the chief examiner is the fifth prince's husband, as long as the examination has not started, there is room for change.
Qin Jiyan believed that his two uncles would be happy to help him.
The two hurriedly hurriedly arrived in the capital one month before the scientific examination.
Before entering the city, Qin Jiyan sent someone to deliver news to both the palace and Prince Qin's Mansion. He originally wanted someone to deliver a message to the old man of the Gu family, but Gu Qiancheng refused.
"I don't plan to live with the old man." She doesn't mind living outside the city, but she doesn't want to face the old man yet.
There is still a gap in her heart, but she doesn't want to wrong herself now, and there is no need to wrong herself.
"Let's go live in another courtyard for a while, and then we can make plans." Qin Jiyan didn't want to force Gu Qiancheng. He couldn't marry Gu Qiancheng now, but he could take care of Gu Qiancheng.
There are advantages to not making their affairs public.
In order to refresh themselves, the two of them did not rush into the city. Instead, they stayed at a post station outside the city for one night and entered the city early the next morning.
Qin Jiyan had gone out in the name of dealing with the dispute between Northern Qi and Da Qin. Now that he had returned successfully, the old emperor naturally wanted to show off.
It was impossible for the old emperor to welcome him personally, but it was necessary to send capable ministers to greet him. Qin Jiyan thought that the old emperor would send Mr. Jiao or the Minister of Rites to pick him up, but he didn't expect that the person who came was...
"Fifth prince?" Qin Jiyan raised his eyebrows, a sneer flashing in his eyes.
The emperor has changed his strategy. Do you want him to fight with the fifth prince?
It's a pity that the emperor is afraid that he will be disappointed. He always knows who his opponent is and will not take irrelevant people and things to his heart.
The news that Qin Jiyan and Gu Qiancheng are returning to Beijing is not a secret. Anyone who is interested can find out by asking.
Feng Sijin and Jing Yan had received the news early. Although they did not go to pick up anyone, they sent people to wait at the city gate to see if there was anyone in Qiancheng who needed help, and at the same time, they also expressed their attitude.
Even the old man of the Gu family, who was far outside the city, knew that Qin Jiyan and Gu Qiancheng were coming back. He sent someone to wait at the city gate early. No matter where Gu Qiancheng lived, he at least wanted to let Gu Qiancheng know what was in his heart.
There is her.
Yan Qing is the general who guards the city. When His Highness Qin returns to the capital, he will naturally guard at the city gate. He can see Gu Qiancheng immediately, and there is no need to send anyone over.
Several people who were good friends with Gu Qiancheng remembered to pay attention to Gu Qiancheng's whereabouts, but...
Gu Qiancheng's biological father didn't know anything about it, or in other words, he didn't even see Gu Qiancheng in his eyes, so how could he pay attention to her movements.
Qin Jiyan and Gu Qiancheng did not enter the city together. Qin Jiyan was welcomed by the prince himself, and Gu Qiancheng had no intention of coming forward to join in the fun.
Gu Qiancheng purposely stayed behind. He waited until Qin Jiyan and his party entered the city and the commotion at the city gate subsided before lining up with the people who entered the city together to enter the city.
Yan Qing had been staring at Gu Qiancheng's carriage from the beginning. When Gu Qiancheng arrived at the inspection area, he said before the soldiers came forward: "Prince Qin's carriage, let it go!" Yan Qing didn't want the soldiers to collide with him.
Gu Qiancheng.
"Thank you, General Yan." Gu Qiancheng accepted Yan Qing's kindness and said thank you across the carriage.
Yan Qing coughed lightly and said with a serious face, "It's okay." But the ears wrapped in the helmet were slightly red.
The carriage moved forward slowly, but Gu Qiancheng, who was sitting in the carriage, did not see a man standing at the gate of the city, watching her leave.
The carriage entered the city, and the servants of the Feng family and Jing Yan's servants all came forward to ask. Jing Yan only expressed concern, but the Feng family left a message to Gu Qiancheng, saying that a banquet would be prepared at the Feng family tomorrow.
, to receive the wind and wash away the dust for her.
Gu Qiancheng accepted the Feng family's message and said that he would go to the appointment on time tomorrow. The servant sent by the old master heard with his own ears that Gu Qiancheng accepted the Feng family's invitation. He was secretly annoyed that he was a step too late, but he didn't
If you dare to show it, you can only say: "Miss, the old lady and the eldest young master have been looking forward to your return. When will you be free to visit the old lady and the eldest young master?"
The eldest young master is Gu Chenghuan. As for the child Chenghuan, it is impossible for Gu Qiancheng not to go, "Tomorrow I will go to the Feng family, and the day after tomorrow I will visit my grandfather." This time is enough to show that Gu Qiancheng attaches great importance to the old man.
, after all, the old man’s people were the last to speak.
"Young man, go and reply now. The old man will definitely be happy when he finds out." The servant happily left, and Gu Qiancheng could finally go back in peace.
Gu Qiancheng had a headache when he encountered these things as soon as he came back. Fortunately, the people arranged by Qin Jiyan were very discerning. The small courtyard was cleaned up early. Gu Qiancheng took a bath in comfortable hot water as soon as he returned.
bath.
After taking a bath, Gu Qiancheng felt completely lazy. Although the journey was not hard, he was really tired from riding in a carriage all day long. Gu Qiancheng wanted to take a rest, but...
The Gu family can be rude, but she can't. No matter how much she hates the Gu family, she still has to show off.
She had already been accused of being rude and disrespectful to her elders because of the lawsuit. Although she won the lawsuit, she lost people's hearts. At this time, she must not be found guilty.
Gu Qiancheng's servants prepared a cart of gifts, which were not very expensive, but were specialties from various places along the way. He picked four gold beads and packed them in the box, then boarded the carriage again and headed to Gu's house.
As for the baby ferret?
Gu Qiancheng didn't bring it with her. She didn't plan to live in the Gu family. She was just going through the motions. Why bring the little ferret to suffer. God knows what those people in the Gu family would do.
Although Gu Guogong's Mansion was changed to Wuchenghou Mansion, the size of the house did not change, but the depth and threshold of the door were changed to comply with the rules of the Marquis Mansion.
Gu Qiancheng had not walked through the gate yet, and he never paid attention to the size of the lintel. It was the same this time. He asked people to drive the carriage to Yimen, and then let the servants call the door.
The people who drove Gu Qiancheng were all arranged by Qin Jiyan. They knocked on Gu's door and first reported the name of King Qin, and then Gu Qiancheng's name.
After the concierge heard this, he hurriedly went in to report.
Gu Qiancheng played with the box in his hand nonchalantly, waiting for the Gu family to open the door, but he didn't expect that the Gu family was facing a storm at the moment...
