Chapter 257: Clever Acquisition

He sneered when he said this, "Originally, my brother had no heirs, and the younger brother's family should have succeeded him, but the two of them were simply stupid and vicious, taking advantage of the elder brother's foreign war, they ran to his house to point fingers like the master, and the daughter of his family even scolded her in front of the Duchess of the country, saying, 'In the future, I will beg for food in my son's hands, what are you angry about'!" The Duchess of Guo was angry and anxious, and even the grandfather of the country who was outside was furious when he received the letter! ”

He talked about this incident with a bit of empathy - the group of people in the Marquis of Jining were also the same vicious and greedy, plundering the makeup of the deceased, bullying weak women, and framing each other for a title.

"And then, how could this concubine of the British prince find out in the palace?"

Xiao Gu asked.

"This is going to talk about the concubine Zhang Niangniang, she is the little sister cherished by the British princess, when she entered the palace, the saint authorized to bring less than 100 attendants, including a few little maids of the general age - this is the custom of their hometown, but within a few days of entering the palace, she was relegated to Nanyuan because she broke the whole box of porcelain beloved by the concubine. It's been a few years, and everyone has forgotten about it, but yesterday suddenly an elderly grandmother reported to the concubine: one of them was once born by the grandfather of the country and the slave spring breeze on the Zhuangzi! ”

"The British princess is difficult, the concubine Niangniang heard this and fell in love, and asked again and again why she didn't say it earlier, the old lady kowtowed and apologized, the child's biological mother status was low, although she was born at that time, she was afraid that the Duchess of the country would not be able to tolerate it, so she was raised on the Zhuangzi, who knew that the biological mother died early, and the child was selected by mistake, but she knew her identity, and she was afraid of causing trouble to the concubine Niangniang, so she stood together with the group of maids who broke the porcelain, and was punished to Nanyuan together. The old lady was a fellow countryman of her mother, and had been secretly taking care of her for so many years, and this time she heard that the English princess was desolate. Madame was anxious, and then she told the story. ”

The concubine was surprised and delighted at the time, and gave a package ticket to the grandmother: her sister-in-law is generous and generous, and she will never be jealous for this kind of old past, if she hears the news of this child, it is too late to be happy! The child was immediately summoned, and the relevant people who knew the matter were questioned in detail, and it was confirmed that it was not a fraud, and the Duchess of Guo was announced to enter the palace early this morning. ”

Guangsheng saw that Xiao Gu listened to this court gossip with relish, and was willing to tell her more--he secretly blamed himself in his heart. Since she took over the responsibility, she has been running around all day long, and she has no time to get along with her more, and her cousin Ruyao is forced by the environment, so she is low-key and lonely and does not leave the hospital, and although it is safe and secure to entrust Xiao Gu to her, it always makes her lonely.

When he is done with this, he must take her out for a good break, at that time. It is also necessary to remove her lowly status, so that her household registration will fall under the name of a landlord and gentry from other provinces, so as to lay the foundation for marrying her in the future......

This is his imagination, but it also needs to be completed step by step. Now there is no need to say everything to her, so he continued: "Listening to the legend of the guards in the palace, the Duchess of the Kingdom looked happy and relieved, and told the concubine Niangniang for a long time before going back. ”

In fact, these are the contents of the daily reports of the Jinyi Wei secret agents. But he couldn't let Xiao Gu know his true position, so he pretended to be a guard legend.

"After all, this is a concubine, is the Duchess of Guo trying to ......?"

Xiao Gu's dark eyes flashed. Thinking of the key point, Guangsheng nodded, "Look at this posture, she has the intention of recruiting a son-in-law." ”

Since the Song Dynasty, although there have been less than a hundred years of Yuan and Meng, whether it is a folk or a noble eunuch, if there is no child, some will choose to have a son and nephew in the stepfamily, and some would rather recruit a husband with a daughter.

"Those two Lord Zhang are so arrogant and domineering, they dare to be so disrespectful to the Duchess of Guo in person, and the Duke of Guo wrote a letter to Banzai on the front line to cry about it......"

Guangsheng found that he was speechless, and his voice stopped abruptly, which really caused Xiao Gu's surprise, "You even know about this!" ”

Guangsheng secretly screamed that it was not good, and he smiled and mixed up, "I am familiar with the guards in the palace, and they will tell me everything in detail." ”

Xiao Gu glanced at him with a smile, "You men usually pretend to sit upright, and you like to talk about these things in private, and you are embarrassed to say that we women have long tongues and are happy to say right and wrong." ”

Guangsheng glared at her angrily, "Yes, yes, we are also long-tongued menβ€”then do you want to listen?" ”

"Of course I want to, if I don't listen, won't I live up to the painstaking effort you sent back for me!"

Xiao Gu said it rightly, but Guangsheng was secretly ashamed: this was really not to inquire about it specifically to please her, but he was targeting Nanyuan in order to investigate the case, and as soon as this matter came out, it was immediately reported to him in front of the case.

"In short, look at this posture, since there is this concubine in hand, the Duchess has an excellent chip in hand, she will never let the two doves occupy the magpie's nest to spread wild in their own house, those two adults are empty, I don't know what ridiculous faces there will be!"

After Guangsheng finished speaking, his eyes flashed with a sharp and dark wave, and he muttered in a low voice: "It's just that this girl is also very strange, she doesn't appear sooner or later, but at this time, and it's in Nanyuan......"

It happened at this sensitive place and time, and he couldn't help but think about it - what did this woman have to do with the red note case he was pursuing?

"What are you talking about?"

Xiao Gu's doubts made him immediately startled, looked at the sky and frowned: "I still have an appointment at night, so I won't be at home, you have a good rest, and persuade Sister Yao to relax when you are free, I will send someone to investigate the matter of your attack." ”

After the order, he left in a hurry, leaving Xiao Gu staring at his back in place, muttering: "Is it so busy to be a marquis, why do other marquis masters just eat, drink, and tease women when they don't have a war?" ”

****

The next morning, before Xiao Gu woke up and had time to see Ruyao, he heard a shocking news from Bihe, "The sachet that the girl stored close to her is gone!" ”

Bihe grabbed Xiao Gu under the peach tree outside the road, and said angrily: "Yesterday was a mess, we and the girl were so frightened that we didn't notice it, and it wasn't until we freshened up this morning that we found that the sachet was missing, and the girl carefully reasoned that it should have been snatched away by the thief at that time!" ”

Xiao Gu frowned, and also felt that this matter was a bit tricky, the sachets that the girls stored close to them were all private items, and it was really worrying to fall into the hands of thieves of unknown origin, "What's in it?" ”

"I don't know very well, but I heard Qin's mother say that it seems to be a token of the girl's engagement, and the semicircle is like a jade piece......

"What?!"

Xiao Gu's heart was shocked, and he couldn't help but raise his voice and shout. (To be continued......)
