Chapter 40: The world is poor for a thousand years

Gu Qingning looked around for the pattern, and Gu Qingxuan asked, "When you were eating with the county lord in Jiangyue Tower, was the picture still there?"

She froze, which was the last thing she wanted to guess: "Father, you mean, the county lord deliberately ......"

Her heart instantly cooled completely, and she slapped her forehead heavily: "I'm so stupid!"

Gu Qingxuan said: "Eh Qingning, don't be like this first, whether it's or not, let's go to Jiangyue Tower to find it first, even if she gets it away, what if it's taken away by her? Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”

"Okay!" Gu Qingning and Fusu immediately went out and rushed to Jiang Yuelou, the closer she got there, the more real she felt that her previous guess was more real, she was almost sure that she had been fooled, and she was resentful to the extreme, and even felt that it was useless to go to Jiang Yuelou at this time, it was better to go directly to Xiangguo Mansion to make a scene.

However, when they arrived outside Jiang Yuelou, what they saw was that the little county lord dressed as a domestic servant was sitting alone on the stone steps outside the teahouse, looking around blankly, his cheeks were still red, he was drunk and unawake, cold and tired, sitting against the stone pillar, cautiously looking at the pedestrians on the street, as if he was expecting something.

What she was holding in her arms was the pattern scroll that Gu Qingning brought out.

Seeing this scene, Gu Qingning chuckled in his heart, and he didn't know what to think, and glanced at Fusu, and Fusu's gaze softened a lot.

It wasn't until her figure suddenly entered the little county lord's misty field of vision that the little county lord's eyes lit up instantly, "Sister Ning!" She got up in surprise, but she almost fell down because of a drunken headache.

Gu Qingning held her swaying body, she leaned on Gu Qingning and sobbed: "Sister Ning, why did you leave me here alone? You leave without saying hello! You are so annoying! You don't know, how fierce the people in this Jiangyuelou are, don't they just have no money, so they will drive me out and beat me! Blame you Sister Ning, how can you say that you can leave without saying goodbye? Leave me alone?"

Gu Qingning said a little apologetically: "I was a little scared after I heard you tell me my true identity, so I didn't go up and did anything else, I was worried about getting into trouble, after all, how can we afford to provoke Xiangguo Mansion...... I don't want to wronged you, it's not good for me, and I shouldn't think too much. Are you just waiting for me here?"

She nodded like a small gong and drum, stuffed the painting scroll that had been protecting her arms to Gu Qingning, and said, "Sister, you left this, I don't know what this is, but I saw that you had been carrying it with me before." I think it's something very important, but I don't know where to look for you, so I can only wait for you here...... Good thing you're here, I thought I had to spend the night on this street. ”

Gu Qingning gave her a haircut and said, "Even if you can't wait for me, you can go back to Xiangguo's mansion?"

"No!" she closed her eyes and said drunkenly, "No, I'm not going back, I'm just going to make them anxious...... Who made him bear me...... I'm just going to make him anxious......"

"Don't make a fuss, I'll send you back to Xiangguo's mansion, right?"

Gu Qingning pulled her and said that she was going to send her back, but as soon as she heard it, she immediately turned around and hugged the pillar next to her, and the whole person was wrapped around the pillar, protesting: "I don't!

Gu Qingning couldn't help it, she couldn't cry or laugh when she looked like this, so she had to whisper and soothe: "Okay, don't go back, are you drunk now, I'll find you a place to sleep first, right?"

Only then did she let go of the pillar and hugged Gu Qingning instead: "Okay, I want to sleep with you, sister." ”

Fusu on the side was dumbfounded, and hurriedly helped pull away the little county lord and helped her into Jiangyue Tower. Gu Qingning took the little county lord to open a guest room on the top floor of Jiangyue Tower and house her. After the little county lord lay on the bed, she refused to let go of Gu Qingning, so she had to let Fusu go back to the house with the painting scroll first, and she stayed to take care of the little county lord.

After Gu Qinghuan knew these things, he was also surprised, and kept sighing to Gu Qingxuan: "Father, I pity Jiang Yuelou, I don't know what kind of "bloody rain" I will suffer tonight, my sister actually spent the night with the county lord of Chengshuo? It's really incredible, I hope my sister can be stable and don't do anything in Jiang Yuelou, otherwise I will be too sorry for Uncle Jiang...... Eh, father, do you think Lu Yuanze would be angry if he knew that his wife was sleeping in the same bed with his sister tonight?"

Gu Qingxuan looked at the information that had just come from him, and while listening to his son's broken thoughts, unconsciously, his face became worse and worse. Gu Qinghuan saw that his father's expression was wrong, so he quickly stopped joking and asked worriedly, "Father, what's wrong?"

Gu Qingxuan said: "Today, Lu Yuanzhi recommended to the emperor that Yin Qixiu, the third son of Dr. Yin, be promoted to the rank of squire of the Criminal Department, and the emperor approved it. ”

When he heard this, his expression changed suddenly: "Father, you mean that Lu Yuanzhi is wooing the Yin family?"

Gu Qingxuan pondered and said angrily: "It must be like this! How treacherous Lu Yuanzhi is! What we can think of, he will definitely be able to think of!"

Gu Qinghuan became anxious: "Doctor Yin shouldn't agree, right? He listened to his father, and if he made a big dog frame the Lu family, how could he form an alliance with the Lu family? Sooner or later, the two families will not stand apart!"

"Not necessarily. Gu Qingxuan gritted his teeth and said: "I want to be invincible, Lu Yuanzhi can win over the Yin family, which is evenly matched with his own family, and he can also destroy a strong enemy who may become the opposite party for himself, and Yin Jiheng ...... I'm afraid that he doesn't have the courage, but he still doesn't dare to fight against the Lu family, and he will be bewitched into favoring the Lu family. ”

……

This night, in Jiangyue Tower, there was no "bloody rain", contrary to Gu Qinghuan's guess, the situation in Jiangyue Tower was surprisingly stable. It's just that the Xiangguo Mansion has indeed not been calm for a while all day and night.

Gu Qingning lay beside the county lord of Chengshuo, sleeping with her, without a trace of turmoil in his heart, but he also didn't sleep all night. At dawn, she tiptoed out of bed, dressed and went out of the door, this time was the quietest moment in Jiang Yuelou, she walked in the empty corridor, went straight downstairs, and thought of seeing Jiang Xiange in the Jiang family's residence in the back garden.

She hadn't gone down to the first floor yet, but she happened to meet Jiang Xiange head-on, so she naturally came to find Gu Qingning. The two smiled tacitly, leaning on the railing on the third floor to speak, Jiang Xiange asked softly: "Qingning, who did you come with yesterday? I have been paying attention to my father, and you still sleep in the same room with him?"

Gu Qingning smiled and asked: "Do you and your uncle think that I am secretly meeting your lover in your Jiangyue Building?" Haha, it's really funny, I'm afraid it made you uneasy all night, right? Actually, the person who slept with me was a woman, and it was a person you couldn't guess?"

"Who?"

"Lord Chengshuo. ”

"Huh?"

Jiang Xiange was really incredulous: "Is that the legendary Chengshuo County Lord?"

Gu Qingning nodded: "Yes, it is the legendary Chengshuo County Lord."

Jiang Xiange was so shocked that he couldn't speak, and after coming back to his senses, he looked in the direction of the room and asked in a low voice, "Qingning, then she is still ...... Alive?"

Gu Qingning sneered, "Xian Ge, you also thought I would eat her alive, didn't you?

Jiang Xian Ge said: "Qingning, you are not terrible, what I am worried about is if she is a terrible person?"

"Unfortunately, she's not. Gu Qingning shook his head with a wry smile and said: "Xian Ge, how I hope that she is vicious, fierce, extremely ugly, and terrible, so that I can find a reason for myself to hate her, but in fact, she is not, but so kind and innocent and cute, don't say it is Lu Yuanze, I like her......"

She sighed: "The legendary Lord Chengshuo, a person I should have hated, before this, I had imagined countless vicious ways to make her suffer, but she suddenly broke into front of me, or in such a beautiful appearance, it was me who was ugly. ”

……

After the county lord of Chengshuo woke up, Gu Qingning persuaded her to go back to Xiangguo's mansion, and after she woke up, she agreed depressedly. As soon as the two of them got into the carriage, she thought about it and made a lot of determination, and asked Gu Qingning: "Sister Ning, do you know where the Gu Mansion is? I want to go to the eldest lady of the Gu family before going back." ”
