Chapter Seventy-Five: The Secret Step Born Lotus King is gone
When Gu Wanyan returned to Dongcheng, she said that it was unfortunate that it was also raining in Dongcheng. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
As soon as she stepped out of the carriage, she felt a little wetness on her face, and she looked up at the overcast sky.
Gu Wanyan slowly raised her hand to catch the rain, her eyes moved up with her palm, and she muttered in her mouth, "It's raining again." β
Then immediately a maid came out to pick up Gu Wanyan.
Yu Jin walked in the forefront, she saw Gu Wanyan in the rain, hurriedly trotted over and propped the umbrella on top of Gu Wanyan's head, and blamed herself in her mouth: "The slave should die, the slave is late." β
Gu Wanyan shook her head: "Let's go in." β
As soon as she entered the hall, she was greeted by another person in the appearance of a maid.
"The second wife is good, the slave maid greets the second wife. This maid bent her knees in front of Gu Wanyan, very polite.
Gu Wanyan stopped and looked at it for a long time, and finally confirmed in her heart that she didn't know this maid - but this maid was clearly coming for herself.
Although this is a maid, she has a different temperament in every gesture, which makes Gu Wanyan feel that she has two points of luxury.
At this time, Yu Jin came over and explained in Gu Wanyan's ear: "Second wife, this girl is from the palace. As soon as you left Dongcheng a few days ago, this girl came back to you, saying that His Royal Highness had sent someone to serve you, and that a father-in-law had brought her here, so we didn't dare to slack off and let her wait for you to come back in the house. β
Obviously, Yu Jin didn't understand this matter at all, and there was a tone of confusion between the lines.
After Gu Wanyan listened, her eyes fixed on the palace maid's body, and she saw that the palace maid smiled humbly at Gu Wanyan calmly.
Gu Wanyan's heart was secretly tightβshe didn't even have to think about it, she knew what was going on.
Your Royal Highness, why are you in such a hurry?
Gu Wanyan sneered in her heart, and then asked the palace maid lightly: "What's your name." β
The palace maid bowed slightly: "Back to the second wife, the slave maid is called Lanyue." β
"How old?"
"The slave is seventeen years old. β
Gu Wanyan nodded lightly, paused and said, "Lanyue, from today onwards, you will follow me." β
Lan Yue said, "Yes." β
Yu Jin on the side was dumbfounded, she looked at Lan Yue, and looked at Gu Wanyan: "Second wife, this is ...... What's going on?"
Gu Wanyan looked at Yu Jin sideways, and suddenly thought that Yu Jin was Gu Mo's person for a while, and she unconsciously had a little more gap in her heart.
She said to Yu Jin in a changed tone, "Yu Jin, I can't explain to you what this is going on right now. But now there are more important things that I need you to do. β
When Yu Jin heard this, she immediately put away the suspicion on her face and replied solemnly: "Yes." β
"First," Gu Wanyan lowered her eyes, "first go to Yunjitang to help me find Doctor Xu Dong, if he is not there, find a way to inquire about his whereabouts." β
"Yes. β
"Second, within three days, my aromatherapy shop needs a suitable store manager. β
Yu Jin was stunned, but still replied: "Yes." β
"Third, quietly inquire about the current situation of the Junfu from the side. β
"Yes. β
Gu Wanyan thought about it, didn't say anything more, and only waved her hand at Yu Jin: "You go down." β
Yu Jin bowed her head and was about to leave the front hall and enter the corridor, when Gu Wanyan called her again: "Wait, Yu Jin." β
Yu Jin said, "What else does the second wife command?"
Gu Wanyan glanced at Lanyue and said lightly: "Lanyue doesn't need to register for the increase of Gu Mansion, just register for visits." β
Yu Jin frowned slightly, looking puzzled, but she still nodded obediently, and then retreated.
Then, Lan Yue consciously followed behind Gu Wanyan at a suitable distance, and slowly walked forward with Gu Wanyan, who was silent.
Gu Wanyan came to her previous room, retired all her subordinates, and left herself and Lanyue alone in the same room.
Gu Wanyan walked to the innermost room and sat down.
This room is far from the door, so you don't have to worry about the partition wall having ears.
She swept her eyes and said to Lanyue, "Sit." Lanyue lowered her head: "The slave doesn't dare." Gu Wanyan raised her eyebrows: "Why don't you dare to say it?"
Lanyue said cowardly: "Second Mrs. Hui, this is the rule of the head religion in the palace, and the slaves and maids dare not disobey it." If the slave and maid sit alone today, His Royal Highness will know about it, but he will lose his head. β
Gu Wanyan no longer forced Lan Yue, but changed the tone and asked, "His Royal Highness the Venerable King treats you very harshly on weekdays?" Lan Yue still lowered her head, but her words were clear and coherent: "Back to the second wife, His Royal Highness the Venerable King has only always been disciplined and clear." β
Gu Wanyan was helpless, so she had to drink tea in a sullen voice.
After being silent for a long time, she asked, "Tell me how His Royal Highness arranged it." β
The words are not explained, but the meaning is clear.
Lanyue was very smart, and immediately understood the meaning of Gu Wanyan's words. She smiled and said, "Second Mrs. Hui, His Royal Highness said that as long as your side is arranged, you can return to the palace at any time." β
Gu Wanyan quietly turned the teacup and did not speak. She suddenly felt a little melancholy in her heart, a little trance. I was worried about why I was so ill-fated, and I was still in a daze, feeling that all this was just a dream.
"Then if I leave, the Gu Mansion will ...... here"
Lan Yue hurriedly said: "His Royal Highness, he has his own arrangements. β
Gu Wanyan was stunned.
Lanyue saw that Gu Wanyan was stunned, and without thinking about it, she immediately knelt down, and said in her mouth: "The slave should die, the slave and the maid should not intervene, the slave and the maid must pay attention in the future." β
Gu Wanyan hadn't come to her senses yet, and she was surprised in her heart, why did she kneel down by herself?
She didn't care that Lan Yuezui was about to snatch the words, she just tried to sketch out the future at that moment.
Gu Wanyan was a little helpless, she frowned and shook her head, and said to Lan Yue, "It's okay, you can get up." Then, the room was silent, and the two were relatively speechless.
After a while, Gu Wanyan looked at the window with scattered eyes, and said quietly: "Let's go in a few days, we'll leave in a few days." β
Lan Yue listened, her eyes showed a sense of relief, and then nodded lightly. =======================
The next day, Yu Jin told Gu Wanyan that the people of Yunjitang said that Xu Dong had not returned, and as for the return date, it was also unknown.
Yu Jin said guiltily that she had used many methods to inquire about Xu Dong's whereabouts, but no one in Yunjitang could reveal a thing or two-everyone said that they really didn't know, even Doctor Zhu didn't know. Gu Wanyan sighed, and suddenly her heart was empty.
Is the return date an unknown?
Xu Dong, Xu Dong, it's really time for you to leave.
Another day later, Yu Jin told Gu Wanyan that the Junfu family had moved elsewhere some time ago, and it seemed to be in the northeast. The Junfu in Dongcheng has long been sold, and it is said that it will be converted into a song and dance workshop. Gu Wanyan's brows immediately wrinkled into the word "Chuan", and she fell into deep thought.
Isn't the old Fen country in the northeast?
Could it be that she guessed correctly, the so-called behind the scenes of the old Fen Kingdom is the Junfu family with hatred in their hearts?
But...... Do the people of the royal mansion really have that ability?
Gu Wanyan had a headache for a while, she rubbed her temples and let Yu Jin retreat first.
Then the last thing left is the matter of Gu Wanyan's aromatherapy shop.
Sure enough, as Gu Wanyan expected, it is indeed not so easy to find talents for a while.
Yu Jin searched most of the eastern city, but did not find anyone who was both trustworthy and capable.
Yu Jin proposed that the third son and the fourth son should simply take care of the aromatherapy shop.
Gu Wanyan shook her head resolutely.
She had already planned in her heart - this store, all the income could be given to the Gu Mansion, but this store could only be hers, Gu Wanyan's, not the Gu Mansion.
But of course Gu Wanyan wouldn't tell Yu Jin.
Facing the confused Yu Jin, Gu Wanyan thought about it, turned around and walked to the desk, picked up the pen and waved it on a piece of stationery.
After a piece of paper was filled, Gu Wanyan picked up the letter paper and walked to the window, and said to the window while drying, "Go back and help me transfer this letter to the master of Xu Dongtang." β
The feeling of something wrong in Yu Jin's heart became stronger and stronger, she finally couldn't help it, and stepped forward to ask, "Second wife, is something wrong?" Gu Wan shook her head expressionlessly, her eyes still stayed on the letter paper twisted in her hand: "Don't ask so much, tell you to do it, you just do it." β
Yu Jin had no choice but to take two steps back and shut her mouth stupidly.
