Chapter 51: Making a Stumbling Block

After staying in this courtyard for so long, it is rare to have a few days of leisure, and if you suddenly return to your original courtyard, I am afraid that you will not be used to it.

Gu Muzhi sighed silently, sat in the room and looked at Xiaolan who was packing her luggage.

When she came out, she was in a hurry, and Gu Muzhi didn't have time to bring anything else, so she simply changed into two sets of clothes, so it didn't take long for Xiaolan to clean up and clean the house.

"Cleaned up?" Xiao Liu hurriedly ran in outside, in order to avoid Gu Muzhi having too many things, Qin Boyong sent him to guard first to see if there was a place where he could be used.

"It's been around for a long time." Xiaolan's tone was a little proud, and she turned her head and said to Gu Muzhi again: "Miss Azhi, let's go." ”

Gu Muzhi nodded lightly, slowly stood up and walked outside the house.

Although the annex also belongs to the Qin Mansion, the Qin Mansion is not small, and the annex is located in a remote place, separated from the other courtyards by a thick wall, so if you want to go back to the original courtyard, you have to enter through the gate.

Qin Boyong was afraid that Gu Muzhi's body would not be able to bear it, so he insisted on arranging a carriage to send Gu Muzhi, but Gu Muzhi was not easy to refuse, so he agreed and got into the carriage with Qin Boyong.

"Your face is not very good today." The two sat opposite each other in the carriage, but Qin Boyong kept staring at Gu Muzhi.

Gu Muzhi was a little surprised, he was inexplicably rejected when he thought of going back to his original yard these days, and he really didn't sleep well.

Seeing that Gu Muzhi didn't pay attention to himself, Qin Boyong didn't feel embarrassed, and still looked at Gu Muzhi carefully.

Gu Muzhi couldn't help but Qin Boyong kept staring at him: "It's a little stuffy in this carriage, the prince doesn't mind if I lift the curtain to breathe." After saying that, he turned his head out of the window, feeling the spring breeze on his face, and his mood was not as nervous as before.

To go from the other courtyard to the gate of the Qin Mansion, you have to walk around the periphery of the Qin Mansion for most of the half a circle, about half an hour of time, along the way, the lively scene of Jingzhou City was all in Gu Muzhi's view, and when she thought of returning from the last trip, Gu Muzhi sighed.

It didn't take long for the carriage to stop, thinking that it was at the gate of the Qin Mansion, Qin Boyong took the lead in getting out of the carriage, and the next moment he reached out to take care of Mu Zhi.

"No need, I'll do it myself." Gu Muzhi blushed, but he still got out of the carriage by himself holding on to the wooden fence.

As soon as he entered the Qin Mansion, he was quiet and elegant, and he originally thought that Su Yue'er would make some tricks, but there was no movement at all.

Xiao Liu helped carry the luggage back to the courtyard, although the luggage was small, Xiao Lan alone was enough, but this was Qin Boyong's order, and he only let Xiao Liu do it.

"Eh, Little Liu, did you take the wrong thing? I don't remember that I had this wooden box. ”

Gu Muzhi found that he had one more piece of luggage, and hurriedly called Xiao Liu, who walked to the door.

Xiao Liu looked at Gu Muzhi and said with a smile: "Miss Ah Zhi, the things in this box were given by the prince, so the girl should open it and take a look at it herself." After saying that, he left leisurely.

Gu Muzhi stepped forward and opened the wooden box, it was full of jewelry, presumably Qin Boyong knew that Gu Muzhi didn't buy anything last time, so he specially sent some over.

Gu Muzhi felt in a good mood for a while, and all the previous grievances seemed to be gone.

"Miss Ah Zhi, the slave maid heard that the prince was not in the mansion during the days when Su Yue'er took the initiative to manage the affairs of the mansion, and she really regarded herself as her master."

As soon as Xiaolan came back from outside, she heard someone talking about Su Yue'er, and when she returned to the courtyard, she said to Gu Muzhi indignantly.

"Whatever she does, just take care of her own business." Gu Muzhi chuckled, stretched out his hand and touched Xiaolan's head dotingly.

Xiaolan understood, knowing that Gu Muzhi didn't want to worry about Su Yue'er in these matters, so she didn't say anything anymore.

At this moment, a woman's voice came from outside the door, and then a few people came in, although Gu Muzhi hadn't dealt with them much, he also remembered that these people were Qin Boyong's concubines.

"Sister Azhi, you're back." These women were dressed more enchantingly than the other, and they stepped into Gu Muzhi's courtyard with light steps.

Although Gu Muzhi didn't like it, it was not easy to refuse, so he pretended to smile and welcomed them into the house. Who knows, these people are very sharp-eyed, and as soon as they enter the door, they see the box of jewelry.

"Yo, Sister Ah Zhi has a lot of good things here." As he spoke, he stepped forward and grabbed a handful in his hand and looked at it carefully. "I think the prince is very good to you on weekdays, these things are really valuable." The tone of these people's voices was full of jealousy and sarcasm.

"That's nature." Gu Muzhi did not shy away from it, and answered straightforwardly.

"But even so, Sister Ah Zhi has never been married to Ming Media, and only Su Yue'er is the main room in this house, do you know?"

Gu Muzhi knew that these people would never come to their courtyard for no reason, and they must have taken advantage of the days when they were not there, Su Yue'er had already enveloped them.

"So what? As long as the prince likes me, what is my identity? Gu Muzhi smiled evilly, "Xiaolan, send off." He no longer gave the men room to answer, and drove them out.

"Miss Ah Zhi, the slave maid must have listened to Su Yue'er's orders, so they came here to make a stumbling block for you, I'm afraid that these days, Su Yue'er has bought and enveloped a lot of people in the house." I'm afraid Gu Muzhi's life won't be easy in the future. Xiaolan just said this sentence in her heart, but she didn't say it directly to Gu Muzhi.

"The soldiers will come to block, and the water will cover the earth." Just a few people, Gu Muzhi didn't take it to heart.

"Lord Wang." Xiao Liu walked up to Qin Boyong with some letters in his hand, and these letters were evidence of the prefect's bribery. "It's all found out, the evidence is there, the prefect has indeed received a lot of bribes over the years, Lord Wang, should we hand it over to the government for processing?"

Qin Boyong shook his head slightly, "Now is not the time, these things are put away well, and they will be of great use in the future." "Qin Boyong didn't want to bring the prefect to justice as soon as possible, but there were some things in front of him that he still needed the help of the prefect.

"By the way, you go and prepare two gifts, one for the prefect and one for Su Yue'er's yard."

Xiao Liu received the order and immediately left to prepare things.

On the second day, Su Yue'er received a large box of jewelry in her courtyard, the box was much larger than Gu Muzhi's, Su Yue'er's face bloomed with joy, thinking that maybe it was her mother's method that worked, so she immediately wrote a letter and sent it to the prefect.

But to her surprise, not only herself, but even the prefect also received a gift from Qin Boyong, and Su's mother praised her daughter's ability in the letter.
