"Ahem. Yu Xiaotong had to cough to hide his embarrassment: "That...... The foolish brother did work too hard when he participated in the martial arts competition a few years ago, and he injured his body, so he resigned from his official position and went home to recuperate......"

Gu Yuanqin smiled slightly, and didn't say anything, but asked with concern: "How is my cousin's illness now? Do you want to ask a doctor in the capital to take a look? There are still a few doctors with advanced medical skills in this capital, just like the master Xuanhe who came from Yuedi for my mother's treatment, and now he has not returned to Yuedi, he lives in Xuanji Temple, and the people who go to the temple every day to see him are embarrassed, so he has to wave his hand and say: "My illness, cough cough,!"

Yu Xiaotong is almost as good as he gets...... If not, how could your aunt be willing to let me go to Beijing alone?"

Gu Yuanqin changed the topic and asked, "I don't know what my cousin's plans are when he comes to the capital this time, is he going to engage in business, or is he going to seek an official position?"

Yu Xiaotong listened and said busily: "Naturally, I came to seek an official position." ”

In this era, business is a profession with a low status, but it is different to get an official position and step into the official career from then on. He believes that with his reputation as the last martial champion, it should not be difficult to find an official position. Besides, he resigned due to "illness", and now he is out of the mountain to serve the imperial court again, and with the help of his father's Tongzhou assassin history, it must not be a difficult thing.

When Gu Yuanqin heard his cousin say this, he suddenly had an idea and said, "My cousin is a talent, and he has unique skills, but I have some connections that I can introduce to my cousin." ”

Yu Xiaotong's eyes lit up instantly. He didn't expect things to go so smoothly, and as soon as he entered Beijing, there was such a good errand waiting for him, and he hurriedly got forward. Said eagerly: "Cousin Qin, say it quickly." ”

"His Royal Highness the Prince. Gu Yuanqin said slowly, "What do you think of listening to the errand under the prince?"

Yu Xiaotong was stunned for a moment. Of course, I was so ecstatic that I forgot how to react.

The crown prince is the future successor to the throne, and what an honor it is to be an errand under him. Who doesn't want to glorify the lintel and add glory to their own family? Even a wealthy young master like Yu Xiaotong is no exception.

So Yu Xiaotong looked at Gu Yuanqin with a bowful look and asked uncertainly, "Cousin Qin." Do you really have that much ability to get me to be an errand boy under the prince?"

Gu Yuanqin glanced at him: "Cousin, what are you talking nonsense? What do you mean by getting the prince's subordinates on an errand? It's so ugly! Who is the prince." You should have heard of the prestige of the prince when you were in Tongzhou, right?"

Yu Xiaotong couldn't stop nodding, even if he was far away in Tongzhou, he had heard of this.

"But ......" Yu Wei was still not sure, and looked at Gu Yuanqin suspiciously.

Gu Yuanqin said slowly: "Cousin." Have you forgotten. Is the crown princess going to be selected from our Yuanning Marquis' Mansion?"

Yu Xiaotong was stunned for a moment, then he suddenly realized, looked at Gu Yuanqin with some embarrassment, touched his head, and said with a smile: "Cousin Qin, look at your cousin and me...... I'm really confused, why did I forget that the crown princess would choose such an important matter from your house? When I came to the capital, my mother told me a thousand times. After arriving at the Yuanning Marquis Mansion, in addition to meeting the old lady. Be sure to visit Lord Hou and Mrs. Hou Ye, and send us Tongzhou's specialties, you see my memory, I actually forgot all about it!"

Yu Xiaotong said to himself, not noticing that the fourth lady Gu Yuanqin's face turned from white to blue, and then to black, and when he finally stopped talking, Gu Yuanqin's face was already as black as the bottom of the pot.

Yu Xiaotong was taken aback: "Cousin Qin, what's wrong with you, why is your face so bad?

Gu Yuanqin got up and left: "Since my cousin forgot to go to meet the people over there, then I will delay my cousin's precious time." Cousin, please go back, cousin, I won't delay you in getting down to business. ”

Even Yu Xiaotong was stupid, he also found out that Gu Yuanqin was wrong, he stood up, hurriedly walked to Gu Yuanqin, pressed her back to the Taishi chair and sat down, and said with a smile: "Cousin Qin, angry?"

Gu Yuanqin snorted coldly and ignored him.

Didn't this Yu Xiaotong hear her aunt say that her second room and the big room have always been incompatible?

Seeing that Gu Yuanqin ignored him, Yu Xiaotong was not angry, and said with a good temper: "Cousin Qin, how can I not know about the affairs in your mansion? However, the power of the big house in your mansion is indeed very large, and her brother General Chen Da has won the emperor's trust, and the concubine Cen Guifei, who controls the harem in the palace, is also her niece. So cousin Qin, we can't do it if we don't bow our heads. Besides, this future crown princess is her daughter again, your second sister......"

Gu Yuanqin raised his head and said coldly: "Who said that the big house will definitely be able to win the title of crown princess?"

Yu Xiaotong was surprised: "Isn't it? This news has even been received from us so far away in Tongzhou." On the surface, the emperor said that he would choose the crown princess in the mansion of the Marquis of Yuanning, but after all, isn't it the second lady? The second lady is the head of the famous ladies in the capital, who knows books and gifts, and is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and the prince is the first person in the Jokhang Kingdom to communicate with the law, and the two of them are a perfect match, a natural pair......

"Enough!" Before he could finish speaking, Gu Yuanqin interrupted him, "You still have no end, you know how to praise others and step on yourself!"

Yu Xiaotong said with a smile: "Cousin Qin, I'm just talking, don't be angry." There are some things we have to admit that we really don't have a hard ...... for families."

Gu Yuanqin didn't laugh angrily: "Cousin, do you think that the big house has gained momentum and has been elected as the crown princess, what good will it do you?"

Yu Xiaotong was stunned for a moment. He is a martial artist, and he doesn't like to think about problems with his brain, but Gu Yuanqin's question stopped him.

"This ...... That second sister of yours was elected as the crown princess, that's an ironclad thing......"

Gu Yuanqin sneered: "Whether she can sit in the position of this crown princess is still uncertain." ”

Yu Xiaotong finally heard a trace of inappropriateness from her words: "Cousin Qin, why do you say this?"

Gu Yuanqin turned to look at him: "Cousin, let me analyze and analyze it for you." Even if the big house is elected, you won't get any benefits. Because you are a person from my second room, in terms of the years that the big house and the second room in our house have been fighting, they will not look at your number at all, whether you are a martial champion or not, you will not be a bamboo basket to draw water at that time, so why bother?"

Yu Xiaotong is a martial artist, but he doesn't have the brains of the fourth lady Gu Yuanqin to turn so quickly. The words he said before were all taught to him by his mother, which meant that when he lived in the Yuanning Marquis Mansion, he tried not to offend the people on the other side of the big house. But he understood the difference, thinking that the second lady of the big house would be the crown princess sooner or later, and he would still have a good relationship with the people on their side first, and he never thought that he would say such a thing, but he offended the second room.

When he found out, the fourth lady Gu Yuanqin had already blown up one mine after another, and immediately knocked out a simple-minded person like him. (To be continued.) )
