Qin Yu didn't feel it when he left, as soon as he left the capital, Gu Qingwan felt that the entire Snow Scene Courtyard was much more empty and quiet.

Since she became pregnant, Gu Qingwan has become a little sleepy, and she sleeps very heavily whenever she closes her eyes. Qin Yu left day and night, she was strangely insomnia, and then she fell asleep easily, and she has been a little intermittent.

In the early morning of the next day, when Gu Qing woke up in the evening, it was already bright, she stretched her waist, yawned a long time, and didn't call Wen Qing in, but she heard the two little maids in the courtyard outside whispering.

"Our concubine may not be sad when she hears this."

"Shhhh

"What nonsense are you talking about, hurry up, what should you do, chew your tongue again, disturb the side concubine, carefully the second master came back and pulled out your tongue!"

The voices of the little maids were cut off by Wen Qing's sharp voice, and then there was the sound of squirming footsteps, and the courtyard was quiet.

Gu Qingwan's eyes flashed slightly, she sat and didn't move, and sure enough, she heard footsteps entering the house, very light, it was the footsteps of Wen Qing she was familiar with.

Wen Qing entered the house, walked carefully to the bed, saw that there was no sound in the bed tent, and breathed a sigh of relief, raised her hand to lift the bed curtain, but suddenly met Gu Qingwan's clear eyes.

Wen Qing was startled, took a step back, and then her face turned slightly pale, and said, "The girl has woken up!" Has the girl woken up for a while? The slaves and maids didn't even hear any movement. ”

She probably didn't know how reluctant the smile on her face was, how nervous she looked.

Gu Qingwan raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "Wen Qing, I did hear it, what are they talking about?" What's wrong? ”

Wen Qing's face suddenly turned a little pale, but she knew Gu Qingwan's temperament very well, since she heard it, she didn't want to hide it from her anymore.

Wen Qing licked her dry lips, took two steps forward to pick up the bed tent, and then said to Gu Qingwan: "The slave told the girl, the girl must not be in a hurry to get angry, and don't be excited, so as not to hurt the child." ”

Gu Qingwan couldn't help laughing and said, "Okay, am I such a fragile person?" ”

Wen Qing was a little helpless, she was called out by Song Ning just now, and said a few words, the two had just discussed, and unanimously decided that some things were still temporarily concealed from Gu Qing's good night, first reported to Qin Yu, and waited for Qin Yu to deal with it, and then let Gu Qingwan know that it was not too late, who knew that people were not as good as heaven, and there was a maid who made Gu Qingwan hear the rumors.

Wen Qing met Gu Qingwan's compulsive gaze, and finally opened her mouth, and said: "Just now, a holy decree was issued in the palace, and the decree was sent to the palace, and it was for the second master...... It is a decree for marriage. ”

Gu Qingwan was really stunned when she heard this, and then she laughed, but the smile was a little self-deprecating.

Marriage? At this time, is it God reminding her that it is time to leave?

Wen Qing saw her like this, but thought that Gu Qingwan was too sad, and immediately looked slightly anxious, and hurriedly said: "Girl, don't worry, the emperor will marry the county lord of Yunyao to the second master, but the second master has no love for the lord of Yunyao at all, the second master may not be willing to be at the mercy of the emperor's order, whether this family business can be done or not is between the two, the girl must not be blindly worried, Song Ning will pass the news to the second master immediately, and the second master must have a way......

Wen Qing anxiously persuaded, Gu Qingwan blinked, and captured the important information in Wen Qing's words, "The emperor gave the county lord of Yunyao to Qin Yu in marriage?" ”

"Yes, isn't it the Lord of Yunyao." Wen Qingyan said, looking a little depressed.

If it was a woman next to her, Wen Qing would not be like this, there would be a concubine sooner or later, but the county lord of Yunyao had already formed a big enmity with Gu Qingwan in the women's school competition, if he entered the door, he would not be able to be in the same situation as Gu Qingwan?

However, after thinking about it again, she felt that Qin Yu would be on the same page as her master no matter who she married, and who made her master already have a little master in her stomach now.

It's just that his master has a grudge against the county lord of Yunyao, and if Qin Yu marries the county lord of Yunyao, this is not a slap in the face of his master, so Wen Qing still thinks that it is best not to be the county lord of Yunyao.

However, the emperor's decree granted marriage, this ...... Can the second master have a way to get rid of his family? This is a protest.

Wen Qing's face was entangled, and Gu Qingwan suddenly laughed.

"Girl!? Why are you still laughing! Wen Qing had a worried expression of being overly frightened, afraid that Gu Qing would be stupid by stimulation.

Gu Qingwan slightly restrained her expression, but the smile on her lips was still a little faint, she really thought it was funny. She couldn't figure out what was going on with the county lord of Bai Yunyao, how could she still think about marrying him without hesitation at this moment when Qin Yu was extremely disgusted with her.

Is this the crazy love that is fabled?

If this is the case, then the love of the county lord of Yunyao for Qin Yu really turned her into scum.

If it was someone else, it would be fine, if it was the lord of Yunyao who was given to marry, Gu Qingwan was sure that Qin Yu would not marry anything. She really had nothing to be excited about.

Gu Qingwan shook her head, looked at Wen Qing, and asked with some confusion: "Why did the emperor suddenly give the second master a marriage?" Only gave the second master a marriage, what about the prince? ”

Wen Qing nodded and said, "The holy decree only gave the second master a marriage, and the slave and maid don't know what's going on." ”

This is even more strange, since ancient times, they have paid attention to the order of the young and the old, and Qin Yi's family affairs have not yet been settled, why did the emperor just give Qin Yu a marriage.

"Mama Chen is here, Mama Chen is invited quickly."

The little maids' questions sounded outside, Gu Qingwan hurriedly glanced at Wen Qing and motioned for her to go out and answer first.

Wen Qing went out, Gu Qingwan was also busy packing up, she went to the flower hall, Mama Chen was talking to Wen Qing, seeing Gu Qingwan coming in, Mama Chen stood up and said, "Today, some fresh melons and fruits are newly transported from the south, and the princess asked the old slave to invite Concubine Gu to come over and taste them together." ”

Gu Qingwan followed Mama Chen to Qiushuang Courtyard, Prince Li took Gu Qingwan to sit together on the Luohan bed, and said a few words and mentioned the matter of marriage, Prince Li said: "In fact, two days ago, there were some imperial histories in the court because of the women's school competition and Fuyun Hall, impeachment of Ah Yu's favorite concubine to kill his wife, Prince Li's mansion built Fuyun Hall with more specifications, Ah Yu originally took some measures to suppress these impeachments, who knew that yesterday's early dynasty, the King of Zhenhai also followed suit, and put out evidence to impeach Ah Yu to make you happy, and brutalized the lord of Yunyao, Although there is no conclusive evidence, but the ministers of the court and the central government also believe it, no, this morning in the court, the voice of impeachment is getting louder and louder, the emperor suppressed the matter in the early court, who knows that in the blink of an eye, the court will make a will to give marriage. It is said that the imperial doctor has seen it, and it is impossible for the hand of the county lord of Yunyao to be restored as before, since Ah Yu crippled the hand of the girl, then he will be responsible, the lord of Yunyao is virtuous and virtuous, and he will definitely be able to become a virtuous helper when he marries. ”

When Prince Li said this, Gu Qingwan suddenly realized.

No wonder the emperor only gave Qin Yu a marriage, but did not give Qin Yi a marriage, and his feelings were borrowed from the imperial history to impeach him.

Yu Shi repeatedly impeached Qin Yu's favored concubines too much, and King Zhenhai caught Qin Yu's mistakes again, Qin Yu became a ruthless and unrighteous person who disregarded the rules for his favored concubines, and at this time the emperor gave Qin Yu a marriage, which was to solve the problem of the inner house for Qin Yu and correct his mistakes.

To put it bluntly, the emperor specially married the county lord of Yunyao to restrain her side room.

Moreover, the hand of the county lord of Yunyao was disabled by Qin Yu, and it is difficult to say about the family affairs in the future, Qin Yu is responsible, and he also gives an explanation to the Zhenhai Palace. In the past, Gu Qingwan slapped the emperor's face with a word that looked like a royal pen in the Jingyun Women's School competition, and now the emperor gave Qin Yu a marriage to the lord of Yunyao, and he also slapped Gu Qingwan in the face.

The relationship between the Zhenhai Mansion and the Li Prince's Mansion was good in the past, and the emperor gave the marriage like this, and the courtiers would still feel that the emperor was well-intentioned, and they would never think that the emperor was harming the Li Prince's Mansion, after all, the King of Zhenhai could hold the military power in his hands. The object of the emperor's marriage to Qin Yu is not a useless dilapidated settlement.

As for according to Qin Yu's temperament, whether he will make a fuss about quitting his family, or wait for the lord of Yunyao to marry, will he be completely unfavored, and the Zhenhai Wangfu and the Li's Mansion will not become enemies, these must be very much expected by the emperor.

Gu Qingwan didn't want the emperor to succeed, Yunyao County was scheming and vicious, and Gu Qingwan didn't want Qin Yu to marry such a woman.

She is about to leave now, and Gu Qingwan doesn't care what Princess Li will think of her, she simply said bluntly to Princess Li: "Princess, there is something I have never told Princess Sù, but I have to say it today." ”

Seeing the surprise of Prince Li, Gu Qingwan said again: "Does the princess still remember the time when the county lord of Yunyao kicked away the poisonous snake and saved the princess and stayed in the palace?" Later, when she left the palace, she happened to meet me on the road, and invited me to get into the carriage and say something. She personally told me that the fire in the Gu family was set by her, and the purpose was to disrupt the princess's flower-viewing banquet. She also warned me not to be too complacent, saying that His Royal Highness King Yan Guang would be her sooner or later. ”

When Princess Li heard this, she couldn't believe it, her mouth opened wide in surprise, her face changed from red to blue, obviously she was not light.

Prince Li naturally remembered clearly that the county lord of Yunyao had not yet withdrawn from his relatives at that time, and during the flower-viewing banquet, the county lord of Yunyao did say one or two inappropriate words.

At that time, she didn't think much about it because the county lord of Yunyao had a marriage contract, but she just thought that she had leaked her mouth, and now that she heard Gu Qingwan's words, Princess Li only felt that many things had surfaced, and they all felt that something else was wrong.

Seeing that Princess Li's face was ugly, Gu Qingwan hurriedly got up and poured her a glass of water, and waited for Princess Li to drink a few sips, and Princess Li seemed to be relieved, and said, "No wonder Ah Yu suddenly became disgusted with her and became cold, so it is!" ”

Gu Qing saw that everything that should be said later, and after chatting with Prince Li for a few words, he said goodbye and returned to Xuejing Courtyard.

After the princess waited for Gu Qing to leave, she couldn't help but think about everything that happened to the county lord of Yunyao in these days, the more she thought about it, the more ugly her face became, and she raised her voice and called Mama Chen in, and ordered: "You quickly let people go to check on the matter of the county lord of Yunyao's resignation, whether there is anything else in between, be sure to find it out!" ”

After getting along with each other these days, Prince Li and Princess Li could see that Gu Qingwan was not the kind of person who talked bad about people behind her back and slandered people at will, coupled with the previous appearance of the county lord of Yunyao at the flower viewing banquet, and the recent times they got along with each other more and more people felt bad, which made Prince Li believe Gu Qingwan's words.

Once Prince Li believed it, how could she not be suspicious of the things about the county lord of Yunyao, from the county lord of Yunyao being bitten by a poisonous snake to the sudden withdrawal of the county lord of Yunyao, the princess of Li was simply the leader of the princess when she thought about it.

If the poisonous snake was summoned by the county lord of Yunyao himself, and if the matter of retiring from the family was also arranged by the county lord of Yunyao, then such a vicious mind, ruthless to himself, scheming, shameless, and grateful, wantonly harming the woman of Princess Zhenhai's mother's family, it is simply a big scourge, even if it is disrespectful, you can't marry such a poisonous snake back!

Gu Qing has done what she should have done in the evening, so she no longer pays attention to the marriage, and in the next few days, she has organized her things, and she didn't prepare to bring those clothes and jewelry when she left, and she couldn't bring the silver, so she ordered to pack a few large denominations, silver tickets that can be exchanged throughout the country.

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, it is the day of the opening of the restaurant. Before Qin Yu left, he mentioned the opening of the restaurant to Prince and Princess Li, so early this morning, Gu Qingwan only asked the little maid to say hello to Qiushuang Courtyard and took Wen Qing and Xue Jing Courtyard out of the house.

Sitting in the carriage, Gu Qingwan was unspeakably nervous, always afraid that something would go wrong today, mainly because she didn't know anything about how Su Zili was arranged, and the guide was very bottomless.

Song Ning followed around the carriage with a team of guards, and the sound of horses' hooves came into Gu Qingwan's ears from time to time, causing her to be even more restless.

Wen Qing also seemed to notice that something was wrong with Gu Qingwan, wiped the sweat on Gu Qingwan's forehead with a handkerchief, and said, "What's wrong with the girl?" ”

Gu Qingwan smiled at Wen Qing, but said: "It's really a little nervous, if the business of the restaurant is not good, your girl's money will be wasted." ”

Wen Qing covered her lips and smiled, and said, "I didn't expect that the girl was also afraid and nervous, and the slave didn't see the girl nervous at the prince's birthday banquet that day." ”

Gu Qingwan raised her eyebrows, "Where can this be the same, the restaurant was built by me with money, besides, even if it is built well, you have to look at the side to determine whether the business is good or bad." If I don't have a business, I will lose all my money, and it is natural to be nervous. ”

Wen Qing laughed, believed Gu Qingwan's words, shook her head and said: "I really don't know what the girl is nervous about, even if the girl has no money, there is no second master to raise the girl, the second master even let the girl handle the accounts of the private treasury and fiefdom, what is the girl afraid of." ”

As he spoke, he arrived at the restaurant, and before Gu Qing could pick up the curtain and look out, he first heard Song Ning exclaim outside, and said: "Good guy, this crowd is crowded, and they are all about to catch up with the temple fair, Concubine Fang, our carriage can't pass, or your subordinates will find a place to stop and escort Concubine Fang over." ”

Gu Qing expected that there would be Fuyuntang Zhuyu in front of him early in the evening, and the opening of the restaurant today would definitely not be too deserted, but he didn't expect that even the road would be blocked.

When she heard this, she pushed the window open and looked out, and sure enough, she saw that the carriage was congested, even if there was a shopkeeper wearing restaurant clothes to dredge it, it was still difficult to go further.

Gu Qingwan nodded at Song Ning, and Song Ning ordered the coachman to turn the front of the car.

Gu Qing got out of the carriage late and walked all the way to the restaurant, and listened to many people pointing and talking about the restaurant.

"It's really beautiful, and it must be even more luxurious when you think about it."

"I didn't think that the house could be built like this, although it was a little strange to look at, but it was quite chic and novel to look at it twice."

……

Gu Qingwan raised his eyes and saw that the restaurant reflected the blue sky and blue waves, standing tall. The restaurant is a combination of Chinese and Western construction style, from the direction of Gu Qingwan, it is a typical Chinese style palace with a large roof, heavy eaves and arches, flying eaves and corners, cutting the blue sky into pieces.

But the other side of the restaurant, facing the side of the Qinghe, is the Gothic architectural style, the towering and thin spire, like a row of sharp swords inserted in the pavilion ready to fire, instantly give the simple and solemn restaurant a powerful momentum, so that the whole restaurant is majestic and magnificent, gold and jade, particularly eye-catching.

Gu Qingwan approached, and a gilded plaque hung on the tall and spacious door frame, on which the three words "Welcome to Guests" were shining with golden light.

The name of the restaurant was given by Mr. Chen San, Gu Qingwan did not ask, but the words on the plaque were written by Shen Ze and his grandfather, Mr. Shen Tingshan, a famous calligrapher in Daqin.

Before Gu Qingwan finished appreciating the elegant words on the plaque, Chen Xinying ran downstairs, pulled Gu Qingwan and said with a smile: "Sister Wan, you can be regarded as coming, you don't know, if we hadn't left two private rooms today, we would have no place to sit, this time it is not time to have a serious meal, and all the private rooms have been lined up for three days." Sister Evening, come up with me, my mother and they have all arrived. ”

She dragged Gu Qing into the restaurant in a hurry, and today Shen Xue's mother and sisters came, and they set aside two private rooms to entertain their own people.

Outside, Shen Ze and others were responsible for receiving the people who came to cheer, and Gu Qingwan was directly pulled into the Peony Pavilion.

Shen Ze's four mothers were all in the Peony Pavilion, and there were several girls from the mansion sitting next to them, Shen Ze's sister Jingtong County Principal saw Chen Xinying pushing Gu Qingwan in, and took the lead in laughing, and said, "Oh, today's great hero is here." ”

She stood up as she spoke, took Gu Qingwan's hand from the other side, and said, "Sister Wan doesn't know, Brother Fang Cai has promised to give me a set of ruby heads made by Mr. Fengyue of the Treasure Pavilion himself, thanks to Sister Wan, we can only have gifts here, so Sister Wan is a great hero today." ”

Gu Qingwan looked at Chen Xinying suspiciously, Chen Xinying smiled silently, but Li Dongzhe's cousin Li Chunhua got up with a smile, raised his hand and nodded at the county lord of Jingtong, and said, "Look at you, who can understand what you say?" ”

She said that, she explained to Gu Qingwan with a smile: "Today's business in the restaurant is doing like this, if there is no accident, it will not be a problem to make money in the future." The second brother and Brother Shen came over to toast together, but we knocked the bamboo bar hard, Sister Wan didn't know, the second brother didn't say a dime on weekdays, and the left and right were not generous, but now they are smiling and responding to a lot of good things for us. ”

Gu Qingwan laughed at this time and said: "That's the case, since it is a daily increase in gold, the opportunity is rare, and the county lord only asked his brother for a set of ruby heads, but he really suffered a big loss." ”

The county lord of Jingtong was stunned, and immediately clapped his hands and said regret, which caused several ladies and girls in the room to laugh.

The movement here attracted the attention of the private room opposite, but sitting opposite happened to be Feng Ziyue and several noble girls who had been friends on weekdays, and three of them participated in the flower viewing banquet in Prince Li's mansion.

Seeing that Gu Qingwan was summoned to her by Shen Ze's mother, the eldest princess, holding hands and saying something, the girl in the ginger gown next to Feng Ziyue sighed: "Sister Feng is fortunate that her marriage with King Yan Guang did not come to fruition, and there is such a side concubine in the palace, the lord of Yunyao is really ......."

She shook her head and sighed before she finished speaking, obviously extremely unoptimistic about the county lord of Yunyao getting a good family affair.

Feng Ziyue pursed her lips, her eyes stared at Gu Qingwan's figure opposite, and there was a flash of amazement and envy. On the other side of her, the county lord of Jiangyun, who also participated in the flower-viewing banquet of Prince Li's mansion, said: "Fortunately, my mother dispelled the idea after the flower-viewing banquet, what Sister Ning said is that King Yan Guang, the side concubine, must look good, have means, stand up, regardless of temperament or talent, are higher than ordinary people's main rooms, and those who are proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are about to become fine, and now they can make a cornucopia with their fingers, such a side room, which main room can be suppressed?" On weekdays, the county lord of Yunyao is a smart person, but now it seems that he is not a deaf ear. ”

Her words caused several girls to nod their heads, obviously although Gu Qing had no intention of being late, but because of her existence, it had indeed made all the noble ladies shy away from Qin Yu.

T
