92, Gu family

At that time, An Ning had already explained the general situation to Ling Moxing, and it was obvious that compared to Shen Rulin's long words, An Ning's concise and clear words convinced him more.

He thought for a moment and asked, "An Ning, you really want to help her?"

An Ning didn't answer and asked, "Is it difficult?"

"It's a little tricky, not to mention that the Shen family is a big business in the capital, and a large amount of tax revenue in the treasury every year comes from the Shen family, not to mention that the object of their marriage this time is the Gu family, a person who specializes in developing all kinds of weapons, it can be said that the weapons of the Ling army have always been rationed by the Gu family. Ling Moxing frowned and groaned, "In recent years, the Gu family has monopolized the manufacture of weapons. ”

"So these two families almost hold the lifeblood of Ling Guo, right?"

"So to speak, my father is ordering me to deal with this matter. ”

The lifeblood of the state is out of the hands of the emperor and firmly in the hands of the courtiers, and the danger and coercion in it are self-evident.

An Ning raised her hand to support the corner of her forehead, lost in thought, and her other hand subconsciously stroked the fabric on her chest, which was the small action she was most accustomed to doing in recent days. Seeing this, Ling Moxing smiled slightly and didn't bother, just glanced at her while flipping through the papers, and suddenly looked at her, and it seemed that what she was stroking was not the placket of her clothes, but ...... The contents of the placket look like an ornament like a jade pendant...... He shook his head a little funny, what she wore was her preference, why did he even care about this?

Ling Mo glared slightly, a little unable to understand the situation in front of him, it was obviously a very urgent situation, but the three people in front of him were silent, especially the elder brother, who was still looking at the twists and turns without panicking? "Brother, An Ning, this matter is so difficult to solve, you are not in a hurry?"

"What's the use of being anxious, you need to calm down and think of a way. Ling Moxing glanced at her lightly, and then his calm gaze returned to the paperwork.

"You guys look like you're trying to figure it out?" Mowei looked at them speechlessly.

"Be quiet, aren't you going back to the palace?" Ling Moxing twisted his eyebrows and raised his eyes, seeing that she was biting her lower lip and unwilling to speak, her eyes changed slightly and she groaned, "You sneaked out of the palace again?"

"I have a token to enter and leave the palace freely, not to steal away. Ling Mo twisted his head slightly and said stiffly.

Ling Moxing didn't speak, and the atmosphere became very strange for a moment. An Ning came back from her contemplative state, looked at the woman beside her with her head hanging and asked, "Qingru, how far can you go?"

"What?" Obviously, Shen Qingru didn't react at once, and muttered.

"How far can you sacrifice so that you don't have to marry someone you don't want to marry?"

Shen Qing was stunned, clenched his fists as if he had mustered up the courage to make a decision, and replied resolutely: "I can do anything, as long as I can get out of the Shen family, I can do anything." ”

An Ning nodded with a faint smile, and turned her eyes to look at the man in the upper seat, "Mo Xing, would you like to help me play a play?"

Ling Moxing put down the paperwork in his hand for the time being, and a gentle smile appeared on the corner of his indifferent lips, "Yes." ”

"What?Qingru was kidnapped by the Qingning County Lord?" Gu Xingchen stood up from his seat and looked at Shen Rulin in front of him with wide eyes and disbelief. The man sitting quietly next to him was drinking tea, and when he heard the name, his hand shook, and the tea swayed a little into his shirt with his movements, but he didn't realize it, and only looked at the ground in a daze.

"Yes, when Qingru went out of the auditorium, she happened to meet the county lord of Qingning who was playing on the street, and I don't know what Qingru said, the county lord suddenly wanted to help her get out of the Shen family. As soon as he talked about this, Shen Rulin was angry.

Gu Xingchen frowned and fell into thought, who would have thought that the Qingning County Lord would be involved in this matter? Gu Chengxun, the head of the Gu family, glanced at him, then looked at Shen Rulin, who was angry, and asked deeply: "Brother Shen, I heard that you have also gone to find His Royal Highness the Prince?"

"Yes, I originally wanted to ask the prince to settle this matter, after all, the importance of our two families to the royal family is there, and His Royal Highness will be somewhat scruples, but ......" Shen Rulin clenched his fists unwillingly, and said indignantly, "Who knew that the prince didn't care about anything, and helped the emperor to be peaceful!"

"From this point of view, our Royal Highness the Crown Prince has taken a fancy to the Lord of Qingning. Gu Xingyu, who had not spoken for a long time, said with a light smile, his slightly lowered eyes were full of thoughtfulness.

"We think so too, now that the prince and the county lord of Qingning are here, it is not easy to bring Qingru back. Shen Rulin rubbed his eyebrows in distress.

"It seems that Qingru really doesn't want to marry me......" Gu Xingchen muttered in despair, his face full of bitterness. He took a deep breath and sighed as if resigned to his fate: "In her heart, I still can't compare to that Pei Xu." ”

Shen Rulin's heart was shocked when he said this, for fear that his next sentence would be to regret his marriage, after all, with the Gu family's status in the capital, what kind of woman does he want, and Shen Qingru is not bad at all. The two of them have never had much contact, and the reason why they married was only because the eldest son of the Gu family fell in love with Qingru, although he still hadn't figured out the reason, but the power of the Gu family and Gu Xingchen's ability made him unable to refuse.

If Gu Xingchen repents of marriage, then all his plans will be in vain, and Qingru will never be able to marry again!

"Oh, big brother, are you going to give up on Shen Qingru?" Gu Xingyu asked lazily.

Gu Xingchen's body stiffened, and the hand hanging by his side slowly tightened, "It's easy to say, how can you let go?"

The woman who was taken to heart and always wanted to get, how could he be willing to let go?

For this answer, Gu Xingyu was not surprised at all, and shrugged his shoulders without surprise. He didn't understand his eldest brother's thoughts, and he didn't understand what was so good about that Shen Qingru that made him so obsessed?

In his opinion, the only person who can make people remember and cherish in his heart is a woman like Huang Anning, whose appearance is secondary, and her stunning talent and courage are the best.

Hearing Gu Xingchen say this, Shen Rulin's uneasy heart calmed down a little.

"Xingchen, there is the interference of the crown prince and the county lord of Qingning in this matter, and we have no chance of winning. Gu Chengxun, who was seated, reminded him very calmly, to be honest, he was not optimistic about the marriage with the Shen family, because although the Shen family is a business giant, it is still not enough to compare with the Gu family, and now the woman is openly running away from the marriage, which makes their Gu family have no face?

Gu Xingchen stood quietly, and after a long time, he frowned and said in a deep voice: "It is necessary to talk to the county lord of Qingning first." ”
