Chapter 325: Suspicion Grows

In a quiet place under the moon, the beauty sleeves add fragrance.

There are only two people in the huge courtyard, Gu Qing and Huangfu Sisi, Huangfu Sisi pours wine for Gu Qing, distributes vegetables for him, laughs and sings like a virtuous wife, and her smile is all amorous.

Gu Qing enjoyed her services with peace of mind, it was the uncle who owed the debt, wasn't it natural for the creditor to wait carefully for him? As long as the sense of shame is lost, there is no pressure to owe debts, but it is the creditor who is ashamed.

After pouring a full glass of wine for Gu Qing, Huangfu Sisi poured himself a glass and toasted with both hands.

"The concubine has not congratulated Hou Ye on his promotion to the crown prince Shaobao, this cup of wine concubine respects you, and I wish Hou Ye to come to Japan to be crowned the king and the prime minister, and he is a very popular minister."

After speaking, Huangfu Sisi drank it all.

Gu Qing held the cup but didn't move for a long time, frowned and said: "The four words 'Extremely Minister' are not good words, you did it on purpose?" ”

Huangfu Sisi smiled and said: "The concubine is sincere, why did the Hou Ye say this? ”

"'A very good minister' means that there is no way to rise, what should I do next?" Gu Qingruo smiled meaningfully.

Huangfu Sisi also smiled: "The concubine said the wrong thing, and make amends to the Hou Ye, then I wish the Hou Ye a good name as soon as possible and sit in the position of the lord of Anxi, the concubine is not wrong in this sentence, right?" ”

Gu Qing said lightly: "The Lord of Anxi is Gao Jieshuai. ”

"But soon it will be Hou Ye, Hou Ye Mo no longer cover up, in fact, both the military and the people in Qiuzi City have already guessed, since Hou Ye took office in Anxi, Gao Jieshuai no longer cares about military and political affairs, all power is taken over by Hou Ye, at that time there were rumors in Qiuzi City, saying that the Son of Heaven in Chang'an has the intention of changing the commander, the day before yesterday Hou Ye was named the prince Shaobao, but Gao Jieshuai was only given a 'special advance', and its meaning became more and more obvious."

Gu Qing sneered: "You civilians, who have no official or position, but you have the best intentions to the top, you don't understand anything, but you all look like a temple god, how can you understand the affairs of the court?" ”

Huangfu Sisi glanced at him, and said angrily: "It's not the concubine who said it, the concubine body is just relaying the discussion of others, if the Hou Ye is displeased, the concubine body will not say it." ”

Gu Qing sighed: "As a friend, I still advise you not to mix up such discussions, although Anxi is far away from the Tiangao Emperor, there are also many eyeliners of the imperial court, beware of disasters coming out of your mouth." ”

Huangfu Sisi smiled and said: "The concubine body knows, the Hou Ye can rest assured, the concubine body will not talk about it in the future." ”

The two exchanged a toast, Gu Qing looked around the backyard environment, there was only a lonely hut in the yard, quite like a small farm yard, the house was not big, and no one came in or out.

Gu Qing asked curiously: "You are the innkeeper, but you have never seen your family, are you without relatives and no reason in Qiuzi City?" ”

Huangfu Sisi's face changed, he took a sip of wine in disguise, and said with a forced smile: "The concubine has been lonely since she was a child, her parents died, and it was her relatives who brought her concubine to Qiuzi City to make a living, and her relatives left a sum of money and left, and the concubine opened this inn alone, and she has been used to living alone for many years." ”

Gu Qing looked deeply into her eyes and said, "The folk customs in Qiuzi City are not simple, haven't you been bullied by others when you have opened an inn alone all these years?" ”

"So the concubine's shop hired a few strong guys, and ordinary customers usually don't dare to make trouble in the store."

"What about the government? What should I do if I am bullied by the government? Gu Qing asked.

Huangfu Sisi stroked his hair and sideburns uncomfortably, and said with a smile: "Lord Hou has a lot of problems tonight, do you like concubines?" So you want to know everything about the concubine? ”

Gu Qing smiled and said, "The main thing is to know if you have a backstage in Qiuzi City, so that you can judge if there will be any consequences if you owe you money, if your backstage is very strong, I will ask someone to send money tomorrow." ”

Huangfu Sisi calmed down his panicked emotions, glanced at him coquettishly, and said: "Hou Ye is almost the lord of Anxi, on the ground of the four towns of Anxi, even if the concubine has a big backstage, she still has to bow down in front of the Hou Ye, it seems that the money lent by the concubine will not come back for the rest of her life......"

Gu Qing smiled with relief: "That's good, it seems that today is an auspicious day for the zodiac, and I am destined to earn a hundred taels for nothing, and I should be a big white." ”

Huangfu Sisi blinked, leaned close to Gu Qing's ear and exhaled like an orchid: "The concubine's dowry was lost by the Hou Ye, what if the concubine can't marry in the future?" Is Hou Ye willing to accept a concubine? ”

Gu Qing calmly stretched out an index finger against the door of her head and slowly pushed her away: "...... Gotta add money. ”

Huangfu was stunned for a moment, and suddenly giggled.

Gu Qing glanced at her, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was a little unpredictable.

If it doesn't involve feelings, Gu Qing's mind has always been very calm and sober.

Just now after a few words of conversation with Huangfu Sisi, Gu Qing deliberately tried a few words, and gradually became suspicious of her in his heart.

This woman is a little suspicious, the biggest suspicion is that if she really opened an inn alone in Qiuci City over the years, it would be difficult to survive in this mixed environment of dragons and snakes, especially for a beautiful woman like her, it makes no difference if she follows up the wolf's den, and if there is no official support for her later, I am afraid that she will not be able to stay in Qiuci City for a day.

So here's the problem, it's normal for a businessman to have a backstage, with Gu Qing's identity, Huangfu Sisi should be very diligent to tell Gu Qing about her backstage, maybe she can win Gu Qing's favor, and look at her backstage differently, wouldn't it be better to promote her?

Why is this woman evasive and unsightly on this topic?

…………

When the secluded courtyard was alone, ambiguous and charming, but each with his own thoughts, a guy broke in and broke the complicated atmosphere.

"Shopkeeper, someone is making trouble in front of you......"

Huangfu Si raised his eyebrows, changed his coquettish color, and instantly turned into a spicy and powerful female shopkeeper image.

"Who's making trouble?"

"A few Tibetan merchants......

Huangfu Sisi snorted and said, "Call all the guys and go to the front hall to have a look." ”

Just as he was about to leave, the man hesitated and said, "The few Tibetan merchants who made trouble have been put down by the generals who were drinking in the front hall. ”

Huangfu was stunned for a moment, glanced at Gu Qing quickly, showed an expression that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, and snorted softly like a coquettish.

"Tell me more about it, what's going on?"

The guy said softly: "Tonight, the Hou Ye feasted the generals of the Anxi Army, and chartered the front hall of the inn, the generals were quite after drinking, uh, quite arrogant, talking and laughing loudly, and the guests who lived in the back did not know what to do, and felt that the people in the front hall were arguing with them, so they came to theorize, and entered the front hall without paying attention to the general of the Anxi Army, and shouted a few words loudly, but were put down by several half-drunk generals with three fists and two feet......"

The guy paused, and added: "The generals saw that it was the Tubo people who were put down, and it happened that a few days ago, the Hou Ye led his troops to fight against the Tubo, and the generals' hatred for the Tubo people was not gone, so they made up a few punches and kicks, and the Tubo merchants were all dizzy, and they were still in a coma at the moment, and the generals returned to their seats and continued to drink......

Huangfu thought about laughing and thinking about it, glared at Gu Qing, and said: "The fierce generals under the command of Hou Ye are brave, and they can be protected by these generals, and the concubine is really flattered." ”

Gu Qing smiled and said, "Let's go, let's take a look, these killers don't have a serious attack after drinking, don't make a fuss." ”

…………

The front hall was still full of people, and the generals of the Anxi Army were staggering with cups, and none of them were convinced of anyone, and they were fighting for wine.

Several middle-aged men dressed as Tibetan businessmen fell to the ground, silently silent, not knowing whether they were dead or alive, and there was a group of people and businessmen watching the excitement outside the front hall, one by one in awe and excitement, pointing to the Tibetan businessmen lying on the ground and whispering endlessly.

Gu Qing and Huangfu Sisi walked over, and the onlookers immediately consciously made a way, Gu Qing walked into the front hall, first glanced at the Tubo merchants lying on the ground, and then looked at the group of generals who were fighting together, and then Gu Qing's brows furrowed.

Too lazy to pay attention to this group of killers, Gu Qing looked around and asked, "What about Han Jie?" ”

Han Jie walked in from outside the inn, Han Jie did not drink alcohol tonight, as Gu Qing's personal guard, he was usually not allowed to drink.

After entering the inn, Han Jie didn't even look at the Tibetan merchants, and saluted Gu Qing with his fists.

Gu Qing raised his chin at the Tubo merchant on the ground and said, "What's the matter?" Why don't you stop them when they beat people for no reason? ”

Han Jie said helplessly: "The last general has been standing outside the door, and when he heard movement inside, the generals had already finished their work, and the last general only saw the Tubo merchant lying on the ground, and he didn't have time to stop it." ”

Gu Qing sighed and said, "Go and see if they are dead, if they do, it will be a trouble...... This group of killers! ”

Han Jie said with a smile: "The last general has seen it just now, they are not dead, they just fainted, the injuries may not be light, two of them have broken ribs, and the others are fine." Master Hou, a few alien barbarians, beaten and beaten, it's nothing. ”

Gu Qing snorted coldly: "You know a fart, if you want to develop commerce in Qiuzi City, you must first treat businessmen from all countries equally, and you can't do anything that is insulting and discriminating, otherwise it will affect my strategy towards Anxi...... Hey, that's it, why am I telling you this, trying to find a way to wake up these merchants, and also, telling Chang Zhong and Li Siye that when you have drunk enough, go back to the camp, and you are not allowed to make any more trouble. ”

Han Jie agreed, and asked the guards to fetch a few basins of water over, and not long after, Chang Zhong's generals also came, and seeing Gu Qing's poor face, the generals smiled one after another, and lowered their eyebrows and said goodbye to Gu Qing.

A few basins of water were poured down, and the unconscious Tubo merchant was so cold that he woke up, opened his eyes blankly, and saw Gu Qing smiling and groaning, and the first forty-year-old Tubo merchant suddenly shouted, his expression was quite angry, and he cursed the incomprehensible Tubo words in his mouth, and pointed at Gu Qing.

Han Jie next to him couldn't help it, stepped forward and grabbed one of the index fingers of the Tubo merchant pointing at Gu Qing, broke it slightly, with a click, the index finger was broken, and the Tubo merchant held his finger and screamed miserably.

Gu Qing smiled as before, and Gu Qing did not stop Han Jie's move.

The politeness to these alien monkeys is that Gu Qing's quality is high, but it is not right for the monkeys to kick their noses in the face, just like borrowing money between friends, if they always fail to repay their debts, their politeness is limited.
