Tang Wan looked at Gu Chen's face, and the corners of her lips were almost invisibly curved.

Look, she said that Yang Qinyan, a woman, couldn't stand the stimulation, and this excitement exploded.

The reason why Gu Chen doesn't like to come into contact with women is that most of these women like to be sexual, and even pampered and coquettish.

Even if he likes Yang Qinyan again, once Yang Qinyan has been temperamental for a long time, this liking will fade.

What man doesn't like to be sensible?

Besides, a man's three wives and four concubines are already commonplace, why does she Yang Qinyan think that Gu Chen should guard her alone for the rest of her life?

The more she is so lacking, the more she will push Gu Chen away.

Tang Wan thought conceitedly, to capture a man's heart, it is not enough to rely on his face alone.

Seeing that Gu Chen's face was getting ugly little by little, Qin Niang gradually stepped out of the threshold, and the smile on Tang Wan's face could hardly be hidden.

Unexpectedly, Qin Niang just stepped out with one foot, turned her head and stepped back.

"I heard that the cousin of the Tang family is leaving today, isn't Gu Lang going to send it off?" Qin Niang looked at Gu Chen with a smile, "I happen to have some silver in my hand, and I want to do some business with my cousin of the Tang family." ”

When Gu Chen heard this, his face instantly eased a lot, and he hurriedly followed: "What Madam said is, then let's go and see them off together." ”

As he spoke, he grabbed Qin Niang's waist and quickly walked towards the outside of Wanxin Pavilion.

didn't even look at Tang Wan more.

Tang Wan's face turned blue for a while, and the handkerchief in her hand was about to be twisted into a rope by her.

Out of Wanxin Pavilion, the husband and wife got into the carriage.

Gu Chen looked at her face and said, "I don't like Miao Jiang's tea. ”

Qin Niang lowered her eyes: "Oh." There was no expression on his face.

"Don't believe what Tang Wan said, I married her for what she has." Gu Chen knew that she wouldn't believe it, but she couldn't help but repeat it again and again.

Steward Liu said that even if it is a lie, it can become the truth every day, not to mention, what he says is the truth.

He believed that he took the trouble to explain, and that she would listen to it one day.

Qin Niang finally raised her eyes and glanced at him, what was there in Tang Wan's hand that Gu Chen had to get?

It was hard for her to imagine that apart from money and power in this world, what else could make Gu Chen care so much?

"Qin'er, have you ever heard of the crossbow of the Western Shu Kingdom?" Gu Chen asked.

Qin Niang twisted her eyebrows and searched her memory hard, this thing sounded a little familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had heard it for a while.

Seeing that she was willing to listen to him, Gu Chen secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and then said: "That repeater crossbow is dozens of times more powerful than ordinary bows and arrows, and it only needs to be set up on the city wall and controlled by a small number of soldiers, so that it can achieve the effect of one enemy against a hundred." ”

After he said this, the outline of a certain weapon instantly appeared in Qin Niang's mind.

Yes, repeater!

In the previous life, she had seen it.

It is a weapon invented by the Western Shu Kingdom that can fire ten arrows at a time, which is extremely powerful, whether it is used on the battlefield or for defending the city, it is an excellent weapon.

In the previous life, the Xishu Kingdom relied on this weapon to conquer several cities in the eastern kingdom in a row, at that time, the homeless people were rampant, and the bandits were rampant, and she and Gu Chen were almost shot by such a crossbow on the way back to Beijing.

She had just slipped a tire at that time, and where did she have the heart to care about these things, she just wanted to go back to Beijing as soon as possible.

Now, as soon as Gu Chen mentioned it, she suddenly realized.

"Qin'er, the person who invented the repeater, is wrong

Yang had an intersection with Tang Wan, and Tang Wan also got the design of the repeater from him. When Gu Chen said this, his breathing gradually became a little short, "Just imagine, if this picture is won by foreign enemies, then the east will be in the ...... in the future."

He didn't say anything more, but Qin Niang already understood.

She had seen the power of the crossbow with her own eyes, and she knew the effect of such a weapon, and if the blueprint fell into the hands of the enemy, then the eastern border country would be in danger.

Considering the time, it is presumable that the cartographer would not have had time to sell the drawing for mass production.

Otherwise, it will be time for a foreign enemy to invade.

Gu Chen wanted to get that picture first, and produce it in the eastern border country, and even wanted to see if it could be improved to achieve a more magical effect, so as not to be robbed of the opportunity by other countries, and then be controlled everywhere.

"Qin'er, in the face of family and national affairs, personal interests are insignificant, I just want to get that picture as soon as possible, I don't really want to marry her." Gu Chen said, shook her hand, and promised, "Give me some time, and I will get the drawing as soon as possible." ”

Qin Niang lowered her eyes and looked at the big palm of his hand, and did not push him away for the first time, let alone reject him.

At the moment, her heart is not at peace.

She never thought that Gu Chen would say such a thing one day.

In her eyes, Gu Chen is a businessman whose interests are paramount, and for the sake of interests, he can abandon everything and give up everything.

However, now, like all men who care about their family and country, he is seriously discussing with her a matter related to the fortunes of the country.

If there was no turmoil in her heart, it would be like.

After a long time, she asked, "Aren't you afraid that she will use a gimmick to trick you into marrying her?" What if that drawing is not in her possession at all? Or maybe she's already sold the drawings to someone else? ”

Moreover, that kind of drawing can be imitated, even if it is shown to Gu Chen, how can it be determined that it is true or false?

"No, I've seen that picture with my own eyes, and that picture is not easy to fake. Moreover, looking at the newness of the paper, you can know that it has not been long since the drawing came out, and before Tang Wan's goal is achieved, she will definitely not easily get rid of that picture, you can rest assured, the drawing must be in her hands. Gu Chen said with great certainty.

That piece of paper was bought by Tang Wan for a lot of money, it was her talisman, how could she sell it so easily?

She was able to grasp Gu Chen's thoughts, knowing that no matter how heavy he was, it would be impossible for him to watch the invasion of foreign enemies and the destruction of the country in the east.

In the final analysis, only when the country is strong and the people are safe can he make a lot of money happily and be a master.

If he doesn't even have a country, even if he has money, he will be a slave to the country, and anyone can trample him under his feet at that time.

Gu Chen is not the kind of short-sighted businessman, he was born in a scholarly family, his ancestors were also high-ranking officials, and he was also well-educated since he was a child.

Self-cultivation and governing the country and leveling the world is the ambition of every good man.

It's just that Qin Niang didn't expect that Gu Chen would marry Tang Wan for the sake of her family and country.

If he didn't have any friendship with Tang Wan, would he marry Tang Wan?

Qin Niang suddenly felt a little uncertain, she looked at the man who was close at hand, and suddenly felt that although she had gone through two lives, she didn't know him at all.

I don't know which of the words he said was true and which was false.

Gu Chen knew that she didn't believe it when he saw her eyes, and hurriedly added: "If I have half a lie, let me die on the spot." ”

Qin Niang's face turned pale with anger, and she pulled out her hand and said, "If you want to die, you will die, don't make me a widow!" ”

Gu Chen smiled on his face, his body couldn't help but move closer to her, rubbed beside her and said, "You feel sorry for me?" ”

Qin Niang didn't speak, just picked up the curtain and glanced outside the car, and said lightly: "Don't think that if you sell it in front of me, I can treat you as before, and don't try to find some grandiose reasons to fool me, I still say the same thing, if Tang Wan provokes me, I will definitely not let her have a good time." ”

She will play with her to death, and let her taste all the suffering that she Yang Qinyan has suffered.

"Madame, as long as she doesn't kill her." Gu Chen said, reaching out to shake her hand again, he knew that she was soft-hearted.

Steward Liu is right, some things have to be said clearly, otherwise, the relationship between them will always be deadlocked because of a Tang Wan.

Even like an enemy.

It's not worth it.

Moreover, in front of the beloved woman, how much is face worth?

Where can a man who is reluctant to face marry his beloved girl?

While speaking, the carriage had already stopped at Tang's house.

Tang Yu's home is not in the capital, he came to the capital, and there seems to be nowhere else to go except to live in the Tang family.

When the Tang family saw Gu Chen coming, they were very enthusiastic and flattering.

Especially Tang Huan, from the moment Gu Chen entered the door, he nodded all the way and followed him.

Since Gu Chen taught him to do business, Tang Huan has been like a little follower, putting Gu Chen first everywhere.

Moreover, since he tasted the sweetness of being in charge of a huge fortune, the little friction with Gu Chen before has long disappeared.

"You go and get busy, I'll just go find your cousin myself." Gu Chen was impatient to see him, waved his hand, and motioned for him to hurry up.

Tang Huan pursed his lips and left unwillingly.

Before the two of them stepped into Tang Yu's courtyard, they heard a woman's shrill voice from inside: "I said cousin, what do you mean by this?" Don't admit it after eating? My good niece was ruined by you, but you want to pat your ass and leave? ”

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Tang Yu roared angrily.

"Isn't what I'm saying true? Lonely men and widows are in the same room, and they are seen by so many people, is it difficult for you to take her away? The woman's voice was undiminished, even a little domineering.

While the two were arguing, there was a faint cry of a woman.

Qin Niang raised her eyebrows, isn't that Wu's voice?

"It doesn't seem like we're here at the right time." Gu Chen held Qin Niang's hand and looked at her sideways, "Otherwise, let's go back." ”

Qin Niang also felt that such a scene didn't seem to be suitable for them to mix, so she didn't refute it, nodded and planned to go out with him.

It's just that before the two of them could turn around, they were seen by the sharp-eyed Tang Yu: "Since Gu Gongzi and Young Lady Gu are here, let's come in and sit for a while." ”

Gu Chen and Qin Niang froze in place and sighed.

"Our Tang family's family affairs haven't been finished yet!" Wu Shi said reluctantly, "You can leave today, take her with you, otherwise, I will send her to Shentang tomorrow!" ”

Tang Yu was also angry: "Who are you trying to force?" ”

Wu said strongly: "It's just a concubine, if you accept her, everyone will see each other in the future, otherwise, ......"

Qin Niang didn't want to be nosy, but when her eyes touched the woman who was kneeling on the ground and crying, her eyes couldn't help but stiffen.
