231 Some reluctance
Suddenly seeing such a pair of eyes, Gu Qingwan was taken aback, and hurriedly looked around, looking like a thief.
Su Zili, who was hanging on the beam, laughed sullenly and said, "I thought Qing Wan was bold, why is he as timid as a mouse today." β
Gu Qingwan rolled her eyes, didn't dare to look up again, and slightly blocked her lower lip with her hand, before she spoke: "Don't talk nonsense, are you ready to help me leave when the restaurant opens?" β
Su Zili was probably afraid that it would not be safe here, maybe someone would come in a while, so he didn't tease Gu Qingwan anymore, and replied: "That's right, the restaurant is the most prosperous place in the capital. β
Gu Qingwan pursed her lower lip when she heard this, twisted her eyebrows and said, "The day the restaurant opened, can you postpone it for a while?" β
Su Zili probably didn't expect Gu Qing's party to be like this, or he had already had her idea of repentance, in short, Gu Qingwan's voice fell, and there was no movement in the upper half of the sound, but Gu Qingwan could feel an extremely strong sharpness, with anger and even cold eyes.
She looked up unconsciously, but Su Zili had already collected her expression, her lips were slightly hooked, with a bit of mockery, her eyes were slightly cold, and she said, "What?" Qingwan is now a side concubine, is this satisfied? Don't want to go? Or are you in love with King Yan Guang? β
Gu Qingwan felt that his tone was full of ridicule, a little sharp and stinging, Gu Qingwan thought, probably he thought that he had played with him and caused him to work in vain, and now he regretted it.
She explained: "You can rest assured, my decision will not affect our cooperation, and I will take out the treasure map as scheduled." I didn't say no, but for some reason, I wanted to postpone it for a month. β
Su Zili narrowed her eyes slightly, and said, "Some reasons? What is it? β
The relationship between Su Zili and Da Qin is complicated, and Da Yan and Da Qin are not harmonious, what is Su Zili's thoughts and political position, Gu Qingwan is not clear, she naturally can't tell Su Zili that she is pregnant
The City of Destiny.
Therefore, she only spoke: "This is my business, so I won't bother His Royal Highness King Ke, His Royal Highness King Ke only said that it will not work." β
Su Zili didn't want to say without thinking: "No! β
Gu Qingwan furrowed her eyebrows and looked at Su Zili with dissatisfaction and suspicion.
Su Zili's figure moved, from hanging upside down on the beam to sitting cross-legged on the beam, looking at Gu Qingwan, shrugged his shoulders, and said, "It's not that my son deliberately embarrassed you, or he excused himself in order to get the treasure map as soon as possible." But it's really not good, King Yan Guang's ability doesn't need to be said by this son, you should know best. It's not fully prepared, it's impossible to take you away from the world, even if it's successful, leaving too many traces, it's easy for him to follow the vine and find you soon. For this, Ben Gongzi has carefully arranged and arranged for these two months to ensure that nothing goes wrong. β
He raised his eyebrows at Gu Qingwan and said: "You should know that in two days, King Yan Guang should inspect the fiefdom at the end of the year. But now you have temporarily changed your plan, and the previous arrangements and arrangements of this son will be overturned and restarted, and in a month's time, this son does not dare to guarantee whether there will be no mistakes, not to mention, a month later, King Yan Guang may have returned from the fiefdom. β
What Su Zili said was not wrong, Gu Qingwan pursed her lips tightly and lowered her gaze.
The opportunity should not be missed, she has not been happy since she was pregnant, maybe the role of jade lotus nectar is indeed significant, and the child is extremely stable in the womb.
In fact, if you don't ride a horse by yourself, if you take a carriage, you should do a good job of shock absorption on the carriage, so that you won't bump the child.
Gu Qingwan thought about it, nodded his head in the end, and said, "Okay, do as planned." β
Gu Qingwan was about to ask a few more questions and talk about the details, but Su Zili suddenly moved, raised his hand and pressed it.
Gu Qingwan saw that he was nervous, and hurriedly shut up, and then, sure enough, she heard footsteps and talking not far away.
"Where's your concubine?"
The voice was low and familiar, it was clearly Qin Yu's voice, and he was asking the two maids who went to pick the red maple.
Gu Qingwan hurriedly stood up and walked out of the warm pavilion quickly, the maid over there had already smiled and blessed her body, and replied: "The side concubine is resting in the Zhiran Pavilion." β
In reply, Qin Yu's figure had appeared in Gu Qingwan's sight through a flower wall covered with green vines, looking at each other, Gu Qingwan smiled without any abnormality, and said with a slight surprise: "Why did Your Highness come over?" The banquet shouldn't be over yet, doesn't Your Highness have to accompany the guests? β
She said that she had taken a lotus step, and walked towards Qin Yu.
The pavilion behind him was open on all sides, and it was unobstructed, Qin Yu naturally didn't have any doubts, just took two steps, took Gu Qingwan's hand, and said, "The master won't be looking for you in a blink of an eye, and I'm a little worried." β
Gu Qingwan pointed to a little stain on the hem of her skirt to Qin Yu, and said, "I accidentally knocked over the dish, I came out to change my clothes, and I felt tired when I walked here, so I asked Wen Qing to go back and get it." β
Qin Yu heard Gu Qingwan say that he was tired, his expression tightened, he looked at her carefully, and then dragged the person into his arms, and said, "Since you are tired, then go back to the Snow Scene Courtyard to rest, you don't need to go to the Fuyun Hall anymore, you are happy and clean, it is too noisy over there." β
Gu Qingwan leaned on Qin Yu's arms, raised her hand softly and hugged his waist, listening to his concerned and domineering words, she couldn't tell what kind of feelings she had in her heart for a while, she was silent for a while, and then she spoke: "How can it be done, I know that His Royal Highness treats me well, but the princess handed over the nobles to me, and I can't leave halfway." β
Qin Yu was worried about Gu Qingwan's body, and said, "Master go and talk to the concubine." β
Gu Qingwan hugged him, shook her head and said, "Don't, I chatted with Xinying and them very happily, Your Highness don't care, I know my body best, but I'm a little tired, this time it's much better." β
After she spoke, she raised her eyes to look at Qin Yu, but Qin Yu twisted her nose, her eyes were quite doting and gentle, and said, "Whatever you want, but if you really feel tired, don't hold on."
The ugly girl of the Rakshasa lord is also **. β
In the past few days, Gu Qing has been helping Prince Li to hold a banquet in the evening, and she is indeed busier and more tired than usual, she is now a special period, and Qin Yu is always afraid that she will have an accident.
Gu Qingwan is not wood, so she can naturally feel Qin Yu's care and close care from him, and I don't know if it's because a woman is pregnant, she is prone to sentimentality, and her heart will become soft. Before leaving, Gu Qingwan always felt a little dazed and reluctant.
She wrapped her arms around Qin Yu's waist, buried her face in his arms, and took a deep breath.
This somewhat attached action immediately pleased Qin Yu, making him laugh lightly, he hugged Gu Qingwan, gently patted her back, smiled and lowered his head, kissed the top of her hair, and said, "Qingqing, what's wrong?" β
Gu Qingwan buried her cheeks deeper, and said after a while: "It's just that I suddenly feel that His Highness has not been too bad to me all along." β
Qin Yu laughed loudly, gently pinched her shoulder, and said: "Isn't it bad, the master has never been so good to anyone in his life, including the master himself, you are a little conscienceless, and only now did you find out that the master is good to you?" β
Gu Qingwan was slightly flustered when he heard this, but he remembered the first time they met, and Qin Yu healed his wounds. Indeed, Qin Yu is extremely ruthless to herself, and it seems that she is indeed much better to her.
However, she clearly said that he was not bad, but he understood that he praised him as good, and this cheek was still as thick as ever.
At that time, Su Zili was still hanging on the beams of the room, looking at a pair of people hugging each other in the distance, her eyes changed, and she immediately snorted softly and turned her head away.
Qia Wenqing took the change of clothes, Gu Qingwan withdrew from Qin Yu's arms, and said, "Your Highness, go back quickly, the prince is born today, don't make him angry, I'll go change my clothes and go back." β
When Qin Yu heard this, he pulled Gu Qingwan and said, "Where are you going to change your clothes?" Go to the warm pavilion and let the maid close the window, what are you running, don't you say you're tired? Ye will guard you outside the pavilion, and no one will disturb you. β
Su Zili was still inside, where would Gu Qing go in to change his clothes at night, and he smiled and pulled Qin Yu and said: "The first two steps ahead is the clean room, it is very convenient for me to change it in the past, and the people here in the warm pavilion are coming and going, which is not very good." β
After she said that, she beckoned Wen Qing and went to the direction of the clean room, Qin Yu did not doubt that he had him, and turned around and returned to Fuyun Hall.
Prince Li's birthday banquet was very successful, the guests and hosts were happy, on the same day, there was a unique floating cloud hall in the palace, or the news that the palace Gu Fang Concubine built the news spread throughout the capital. Those who had seen the Floating Cloud Hall were full of praise for the magnificent atmosphere of the Floating Cloud Hall, and they were so shocked that everyone said that Gu Qingwan was more outstanding than the best craftsmen in Great Qin.
Not only that, but along with Fuyuntang, there is also the news that a restaurant is about to open by the Qinghe River.
The people who can go to Prince Li's Mansion to attend the birthday banquet are all dignitaries, some low-grade officials, wealthy businessmen and the like, hearing that this restaurant is also built by Concubine Gu, who is good at building, they are naturally full of curiosity about the restaurant, and they have instructed the people to keep an eye on it, and they must go to see it when the restaurant opens. Fuyuntang can't be seen, if you can look at this restaurant, you can guess how extraordinary Fuyuntang is.
Gu Qingwan has been pregnant since she was pregnant, although she is not happy, but she is extremely sleepy, she woke up the next afternoon, Wen Qing smiled and offered a bird's nest porridge, and said: "The autumn lotus in the yard yesterday was not worth it, and when she returned home, she came back and brought some news from outside." Qiuhe said that now people all over the capital are talking about the Fuyun Hall built by the girl, and they also said that when the girl's restaurant opens, they will have to see everything. β
Gu Qingwan expected these things, and it was precisely because of this that she instructed Chen Xinying to reveal the matter of the restaurant to the nobles on her birthday.
Hearing this, she smiled, continued to hold the bird's nest porridge, and ate it slowly, but she didn't look very happy.
Wen Qing smiled slightly, a little worried, and said, "What's wrong with the girl?" β
Gu Qingwan smiled at Wenqing again, and said: "Sometimes things that have been long-awaited for a long time really come, but they are not as happy and happy as they imagined, why do you say this?" β
The popularity of the restaurant on the opening day could already be expected, but Gu Qingwan found himself a little melancholy
The company's leaders, please let GL go.
But can you not be melancholy? It's easy for the restaurant to open, and she has put so much effort and energy into the restaurant, but now she is leaving.
The restaurant will make money in the future, and I really don't know who it will be cheaper. If she leaves, Qin Yu will immediately marry a woman, and that woman will use her silver to sleep with her man, then it will be called a * to vomit blood.
Wait, Qin Yu is not her man!
How could she have such an idea, since when did she start to feel depressed and uncomfortable because she thought that Qin Yu was going to marry the woman next to her?
Gu Qing shuddered in the evening, she felt that she must not be able to stand the cheapness of her silver next to her, so she would be so depressed and unhappy.
She shook her head, thinking that since she had already decided to leave, it was better not to think about it anymore, it was not her character to be able to afford it and not be able to let it go, not to mention, she had never picked it up.
Prince Li's Mansion has infinite scenery, but the town of the Gonggong Mansion is full of haze.
Since the Duchess of Zhenguo decided to marry Lou Minning without consultation, the relationship between Lou Minning and the Duchess of Zhenguo has been very stiff. Lou Minning said many times that he would not marry Miss Chen Er, and the Duchess of Zhenguo had several unpleasant quarrels with Lou Minning for this.
Originally, because Chen Yiru lost in the women's school competition, it was very unpleasant to be rumored outside, and the Duchess of Zhenguo was in a bad mood and short-tempered every day, but when Lou Minning came back from the competition, she was injured because of Gu Qingwan. When the Duchess of Zhenguo went to test the injury, it happened that Lou Minning was changing the dressing, and the Duchess of Zhenguo saw that her ten fingers were blurred by the strings, so she immediately became angry and said a lot of bad things.
It's nothing more than that Gu Qingwan has become Qin Yu's side concubine, and she is still charming Lou Minning's ghost, and so on.
Immediately, Lou Minning was not polite, and said that the fiancΓ©e that the Duchess of Zhenguo chose for herself was good, but since it was so good, why did she lose to Gu Qingwan in the competition.
Others said this, the Duchess of Zhenguo is shameless enough, enough to stuff her heart, and now her son actually says the same, the heart of the Duchess of Zhenguo is simply pierced into a sieve, bloody, and ventilated everywhere, the so-called heart-to-heart is like this.
Without waiting for the Duchess of Zhenguo to come to her senses, Lou Minning proposed to the Duchess of Zhenguo about retiring her family. The mother and son had the most fierce dispute so far, and the Duchess of Zhenguo was finally helped away by the maids, and when she returned, she fell ill and called for a doctor on the same day.
But even so, the relationship between Lou Minning and the Duchess of Zhenguo has not been eased. In fact, when she attended Prince Li's birthday banquet, the Duchess of Zhenguo was still sick, and she was forced to go to Prince Li's mansion.
It's just that there are so many people who laugh at the Zhenguo Mansion now, and the Duchess of Zhenguo feels that if she doesn't appear at the birthday banquet of Prince Li's Mansion, it will only make people laugh even more, thinking that she has no face to see people, or is avoiding Gu Qingwan's edge.
But who knows, the Duchess of Zhenguo went to Prince Li's Mansion, and after coming back, she was even more stimulated, especially when all the ladies saw the magnificent Fuyun Hall together, and knew that the Fuyun Hall was from Gu Qingwan's hand, everyone looked at the Duchess of Zhenguo mockingly.
Duchess Zhenguo was almost out of breath when she thought about it, and there was no doubt that after she returned to the Guogong Mansion, her condition became even worse.
Duchess Zhenguo was lying on the hospital bed, the more she thought about it, the more unwilling she became, she felt that she couldn't do nothing, let Gu Qing's evening scenery and Guogongfu become a joke. She felt that even if she was not as satisfied with Chen Yiru as she used to be, she couldn't say anything about this family business.
First, Lou Minning has already retired once, and if she retreats again, the girl she will probably talk about next time is not as good as Chen Yiru.
The other, now that Lou Minning and Chen Yiru have withdrawn, haven't they fulfilled those ridicules outside?
Therefore, she should do her best to arrange the marriage of Lou Minning and Chen Yiru, so that she can sue those self-righteous people outside, she doesn't feel that she is a fish eye as a pearl at all, Chen Yiru and Lou Minning get married, and she can slap those who watch the jokes of the Zhenguo Mansion to the salvation of the final farewell.
With this decision, the Duchess of Zhenguo sent someone to the Chen Mansion to discuss the marriage without discussing it with Lou Minning.
As soon as Lou Minning returned to the house, Chengmo reported the matter, Lou Minning's expression remained unchanged, but he just turned his steps and walked towards the courtyard of the Duchess of Zhenguo.
The maids were trembling in the courtyard, and when they saw Lou Minning coming, they immediately showed joy on their faces, and hurriedly reported loudly, saying: "The prince has come to see Mrs., the prince has come to see Mrs.!" β
A maid hurriedly lifted the door curtain, and Lou Minning strode in.
The Duchess of Zhenguo was still leaning on the Luohan bed with a sick face, and when she heard the movement, she didn't get up, but let the maid lie down and close her eyes.
Lou Minning strode into the inner room, stood three steps away from the Luohan bed, and looked at the Duchess of Zhenguo with a slightly cool gaze. He didn't want to be an unfilial person, but he didn't want to be a foolish person, he felt that his mother had polished his filial piety little by little.
A trace of tiredness flashed across his expression, and he rushed to the Duchess of Zhenguo, who closed his eyes and his eyelashes trembled, and said: "Mother, I know that you are awake, I just want to tell my mother, since my mother has no intention of giving me a divorce, then I have to use my own way to withdraw from this family business, if my method makes my mother lose face, or let the Guogong Mansion suffer laughter, then I can't blame my son." β
He said, turned and left. The lying Duchess of Zhenguo suddenly couldn't lie down, sat up suddenly, held her dizzy forehead for a while, and said, "You stop me!" β
"Madame!"
The body of the Duchess of Zhenguo shook twice, and she almost fell headlong, and the maids were busy screaming for help.
Lou Minning stood still, turned around, the Duchess of Zhenguo steadied, and then said: "What's wrong with Second Miss Chen, is it because she is not as good-looking as the fox girl, just because she lost to the fox girl in the competition, you have to withdraw from her and ruin the life of the girl?" β
Lou Minning's eyes became colder and colder when she heard this, and she was a little impatient, and said, "Mother, when you made the decision to withdraw from my relationship with her, why didn't you think that this would ruin her life?" What's more, in that case, how could my mother bear to do that thing that made matters worse and fell into the ground? β
Lou Minning's questioning made the Duchess of Zhenguo breathe shortly, her face turned pale, and she said in a sharp voice: "She is already the daughter of a criminal minister, does my mother want to watch you marry back and suffer everyone's ridicule?" β
Lou Minning picked up the corners of his lips self-deprecatingly, and said: "But now my son doesn't seem to be able to avoid being ridiculed, my mother said, is this retribution?" β
The Duchess of Zhenguo was almost angry again, but Lou Minning rubbed the corners of her forehead and said: "Mother, I have already said what I should say, I don't want to marry Miss Chen, not because she is not as beautiful as Wanwan, let alone because she lost to Wanwan in the competition, but because she is not right-minded and has a poor character, such a woman is not suitable to be the future housewife of my Zhenguo Mansion." I think, I mean, Mother should understand. β
Duchess Zhenguo said angrily: "What do I understand? I don't understand! The second girl Chen is dignified and virtuous, and everyone praises her, why is she of poor character and wrong thinking!? β
Lou Minning sneered and said, "Mother, a woman who covets the fiancΓ© of others and still takes action, how dignified and virtuous can she be?" β
He didn't say anything, didn't look at the Duchess of Zhenguo anymore, turned around and left.
Lou Minning checked very clearly, before he quit his family, the Duchess of Zhenguo liked Chen Yiru, and expressed to Chen Yiru that she wanted her to be her daughter-in-law, but Chen Yiru still intended to please the Duchess of Zhenguo on the premise of knowing that he and Gu Qingwan had a marriage contract, this kind of behavior is really despicable, and it is impossible for Lou Minning to let herself marry such a woman back.
