085 Good intentions, after all, it is a sister game
Gu Qiancheng reacted quickly and took advantage of the opportunity to ask Qin Jiyan to help her deal with the bride. However, no matter how quick her reaction was, it could not be as fast as Mrs. Gu's action...
Qin Jiyan has his own business to be busy with. There are clues about the secret room murder case. He must find the murderer before the murderer erases his traces. He must also take the opportunity to provoke a conflict between King Zhou and King Zhao. Gu Qiancheng's
He can only put the matter in the back of his mind for the time being and deal with it later when he is free...
Unexpectedly, Qin Jiyan gave Mrs. Gu a chance by letting her go.
Although Mrs. Gu had no foresight, she had some skills in fighting in the back house. Seeing that the old lady had suffered a loss at the hands of Gu Qiancheng, she knew in her heart that as long as the old lady was in the house, she could not touch Gu Qiancheng's dowry.
Mrs. Gu had a plan in mind, so she secretly wrote a letter to her father, asking him to help invite the old man out and find an opportunity for her to take action. There would definitely be benefits then.
Although Mrs. Gu comes from an official family, she has little background, her family is also poor, and her father's position does not have much oil and wealth. If he can do a small favor for his daughter and get her daughter's respect, Mrs. Gu's father will naturally not refuse.
On this day, the wind was beautiful and the sun was just right, so a few old men who had also retired met to go fishing in the suburbs of Zhuangzi and stay for a few days.
Old Mrs. Gu was one of them, and Gu Chenghuan was also taken out by him. It was called helping him run errands, but in reality he was taking him to meet people.
Mr. Gu finally convinced Mr. Gu and obtained Gu Chenghuan's own consent to go to the army for training.
Among the people who went fishing in Zhuangzi today, there was an old man from a military general's family. Old Mrs. Gu took Chenghuan there because he wanted to set up a line for Gu Chenghuan so that he could have someone to take care of him when he joined the army.
When our children go to the army to gain experience, they will naturally not be like the men from poor families who charge forward whenever there is a war and suffer heavy casualties...
Gu Chenghuan went to join the army. Although there would be dangers, it would be a thousand times better than ordinary children.
Mrs. Gu had been coveting Qiancheng's dowry for a long time and was not willing to wait for even a moment. When the old lady left, she led people to Gu Qiancheng's yard.
"Qiancheng, the old man said that your yard is too old and too remote. My mother ordered me to clean up Zi'an Garden on the east side. The environment there is good, the place is big, and it is close to the old man's yard. I reported it to the old man two days ago, and the old man agreed.
Yes, mother will bring someone to move the yard for you today."
After Mrs. Gu finished speaking, regardless of whether Gu Qiancheng heard it or not, she waved her hand to make people move.
"Who dares to move?" Gu Qiancheng flipped through the book in his hand without even raising his eyelids.
Does the old lady agree? Will the old lady tell her if he agrees? Does Mrs. Gu really think she doesn’t understand anything?
"Qiancheng, what do you mean? Are you dissatisfied with Zi'an Garden? That is the best courtyard of the Gu family besides the courtyard where the old lady lives. The old lady wants to live there, but the old lady doesn't agree." Mrs. Gu alluded to Gu Qiancheng's ignorance.
.
Of course, by arranging this courtyard for Gu Qiancheng, she also caused hatred for Gu Qiancheng and made the old lady hate Gu Qiancheng even more.
Gu Qiancheng sneered. After reading the last page, Gu Qiancheng handed the book to the maid aside and then stood up: "Whether I want to move or not, Madam doesn't need to worry about it. If Madam has such leisure, she'd better read more."
Qianxue, I heard that...Chu Shizi is not doing well recently?"
The news that Qin Yunchu was suffering from Hualiu Disease was kept secret by the Zhao Palace. I am afraid that even King Zhou, the master behind the brothel, did not know about it.
"What nonsense are you talking about? How could Prince Chu be so bad?" Mrs. Gu's eyelids twitched, feeling uneasy.
Could something really happen?
She had been locked up in the small Buddhist hall, and after she came out, she was busy trying to please Duke Gu. It had been a long time since she had asked Qianxue about her affairs.
"So Madam doesn't know yet?" Gu Qiancheng looked at Madam Gu sympathetically: "If I were Madam, I wouldn't care about this trivial matter at this time, but would quickly go to Prince Zhao's Mansion to find out the news."
Mrs. Gu didn't believe what Gu Qiancheng said at all, but Gu Qiancheng's next words made Mrs. Gu uneasy...
Gu Qiancheng said: "Madam, if you go early, you might be able to save Qianxue's life. As a sister, I, as a sister, can't bear to see anything happen to Qianxue. Today I would kindly remind Madam that if Madam is free, hurry up."
Send someone to bring Qianxue back."
Speaking of which, the old man was also cruel. He knew clearly what kind of illness Qin Yunchu had, but for the sake of profit, he did not let anyone remind Qian Xue.
Gu Qiancheng's expression didn't look exaggerated at all. Mrs. Gu was unsure for a moment, but the old woman behind her was more stable: "Madam, sending someone to Prince Zhao's Mansion and helping the eldest lady move the yard are two different things, and they don't conflict.
"
"You, you go to Prince Zhao's Mansion in person, you have to see Qianxue no matter what." Mrs. Gu calmed down.
The old lady immediately agreed, took two people with her, and retreated.
"Now let's see if you have anything else to say." Mrs. Gu looked at Gu Qiancheng provocatively, but Gu Qiancheng didn't care at all: "Madam, you think too much. Qiancheng is just a kind reminder to repay Madam for helping me move.
.Since Madam wants to help me pack my things, then please..."
Gu Qiancheng was so generous that he left two girls behind to help with the registration, and then left...
"What does this girl want to do?" Mrs. Gu felt uneasy. She always felt that Gu Qiancheng was secretly doing something, but she didn't want to understand for the moment, so she had to ask someone to move things first.
Gu Qiancheng didn't have many things, and Mrs. Gu brought a lot of people with her. They moved it all in two trips. But when Mrs. Gu moved Gu Qiancheng's dowry, she found that the door was locked, and there was an old man's servant standing there.
Stand guard in front of the door.
"Open the door. We have to move the eldest lady. We have hindered the eldest lady's affairs and made it difficult for you to walk around." In the name of Gu Qiancheng, Mrs. Gu had a very bad attitude.
The servant's expression remained unchanged, and he said in a neither humble nor arrogant tone: "Madam, according to the order of the eldest lady, I am guarding this house. No one is allowed to come in or out. Moreover, I don't have a key to the door. The key is with the eldest lady."
"You are so brave. The eldest lady wants to move the yard, and you still want to stop her?" Mrs. Gu was furious.
Working with her, people have been busy all morning, but it was all in vain?
"You don't dare, it's just that the small door can't be opened. If Madam wants to open the door, please ask Madam to find the eldest lady and ask for the key." The servant kept saying nice things, but remained motionless.
Mrs. Gu couldn't save her face, but the other party belonged to the old man, and she didn't dare to break in like Gu Qiancheng. She could only find the steps for herself angrily: "Where is the eldest lady? Go and find the eldest lady for me."
Immediately behind her, a girl handed her a ladder: "The eldest lady and the others are probably in Zi'an Courtyard. Madam will go to the flower hall to rest first. I will go and invite the eldest lady now."
The master and the servant sang in harmony, and Mrs. Gu finally made things right, and led a group of servants to find Mr. Gu.
She can't do anything to this servant. If the master comes forward, he can always make this blind servant obediently give way. As for the key?
The old man wouldn't come back for the next two days, so she didn't believe that Gu Qiancheng could keep hiding in the old man's yard.
Mrs. Gu was full of confidence, but she didn't expect it. Before she could find Duke Gu, the servants sent to Prince Zhao's Mansion came back, and they brought extremely bad news...
