A moment later, Liang Qiuwu rode to Nangongfu with all the doubts in her heart, and she had not been here since the funeral of Lu Fan, the prince of Nangongfu.

When he arrived at the door of the Nangong Mansion, he tied the horses to the tethered stone with the reins, Liang Qiu Wu walked to the front of the mansion, grabbed the copper ring on the door, and knocked on the door.

Not long after, there was a rush of footsteps in the house, and then a creak, the door of the house opened, and a family member poked his head out of the door with a puzzled face...... The young lady has been waiting for a long time! ”

"Hmm!" Liang Qiuwu nodded, stepped into the mansion, and went to the front hall in the seventy-first chapter of the mansion The attitudes of the parties (5).

Not long after sitting down in the front hall, a maid walked into the hall and bowed to Liangqiu Wuyingying, "The young lady is waiting in the boudoir of the inner courtyard, and General Wu asks for ......."

Liang Qiu Wu didn't speak, just nodded, and followed the maid through the huā garden in the mansion to a room in the inner courtyard.

"The young lady is changing her clothes, please wait a moment...... General Wu," said the maid, and the maid withdrew from the house, closing the door gently.

"......" Liang Qiuwu looked at the furnishings in the house suspiciously, in her opinion, this was just a very ordinary wing room in the inner courtyard of the Nangong Mansion, which was somewhat unexpected to her.

She originally thought that since the woman named Su Wan did not choose to meet her in the front hall, she was naturally in her boudoir, but she didn't expect that it was just an ordinary-looking side room.

What puzzled her was that on the table in the room, there was a cup of fragrant tea that was still steaming, and judging from the rouge lip prints on the edge of the teacup, Liang Qiu Wu didn't think it was prepared for her.

In her mind, it was very likely that the woman named Su Wan was here, and as soon as she heard that she had come to visit as scheduled, she went back to her room to change her clothes, if that was the case......

"Is there anything special about this room?"

Chapter Seventy-One: Attitudes of All Parties (5) Liang Qiu Wu muttered with a little puzzlement, curiously looking at the furnishings in the room.

Suddenly, she saw a delicate wooden box on the dressing table in the house, with the lid open, and next to the lid, there was a piece of paper with very obvious folds.

Liang Qiuwu curiously picked up the piece of paper, only to find that there were only three words written on it.

"Don't breathe?" Liang Qiuwu read the three words written on the paper softly, confused, and glanced at the delicate wooden box, but found that the things contained in the wooden box were not precious jewelry, but sheets of paper stacked neatly on the ground, like the one in her hand.

Out of curiosity, Liang Qiuwu took out a piece of paper folded into four squares from the wooden box and opened it, and immediately, her eyes showed some doubt, because she found that this paper was indeed exactly the same as Fang Cai's one, and the words "not breathing" were also written on it.

What does that mean?

With all the suspicions in her heart, Liang Qiuwu opened more than a dozen points in a row, but was surprised to find that the stacked paper contained in the wooden box had exactly the same three words written on each one, which made her a little puzzled.

At this moment, the door creaked open, and a beautiful woman in a gorgeous costume walked into the room, and saw several stacks of paper in Liang Qiuwu's hand, and looked stunned.

There is no doubt that this beautiful woman is the daughter-in-law of Nanguo Gong and the wife of the prince Lu Fan, Su Wan, although she is not as stunning as the eldest grandson Xiangyu, but she has the common characteristics of women in Jiangnan and other places, with a fair and delicate complexion, a graceful and docile temperament, and a gesture, giving people a feeling of being educated.

Perhaps noticing the surprise in the other party's eyes, Liang Qiuwu's face turned slightly red, and he said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I opened the paper ...... of this box without the owner's consent," and hurriedly put the paper into the box again.

Seeing this, Su Wan faintly showed a little wry smile on her face, shook her head and said, "General Wu is too restrained...... By the way, General Wu and Xiao An have a marriage contract, right? With that, she gently walked to Liang Qiuwu's side, took out the paper that had been randomly stuffed into the wooden box, folded it carefully, and then put it back in the wooden box.

Seeing her movements, Liang Qiu Wu was even more embarrassed in her heart, and while following her movements, she folded the papers, nodded and said, "Well, An and I have made a marriage vow before the spiritual position of my Liangqiu family's ancestors, but that guy has always been resistant to joining my Liangqiu family, so this marriage has been delayed......"

"Xiao An is a strong person...... Su Wan chuckled, folded the last piece of paper and put it back in the wooden box, looking at the wooden box, there was a faint sigh and regret.

"What are these papers?" Seeing that Su Wan was so precious that these papers looked a little inexplicable, Liang Qiuwu couldn't help but ask.

Su Wan chuckled when she heard this, blinked and said mysteriously, "This is the secret of immortality!" ”

"The secret of immortality? Don't breathe? Liang Qiuwu was stunned, thought for a while, and then showed a strange expression on his face, and said angrily and funny, "Who came up with the secret of this grandstanding?" ”

Su Wan smiled slightly, and said with a little sigh, "Guess! ”

Liang Qiuwu was stunned, looked at Su Wan's expression, and said in a low voice, "Could it be ...... Quiet? ”

Su Wan chuckled, noncommittal, sighed, and muttered, "From Guangling to Jijing, the journey is more than thousands of miles, and the entanglement prepared by the concubine body at the beginning is not enough at all, and when she arrives in Qingzhou, there is not much left, all thanks to Xiao An using this method that seems to be a deception, every time he goes, he earns some copper money from the local people, and he reluctantly comes to Jijing ......."

"Will anyone buy it?" Liang Qiuwu asked incredulously.

"Hehe" Su Wan smiled, stroked the wooden box and said, "That's because you don't know Xiao An's ability, when you were in Guangling, Xiao An was able to say that an ordinary satin horse was in the sky...... Oh, the concubine's mother's family used to be in the silk business, the Guangling Su family...... At first, the business was sluggish, obviously it was a fine quality satin, but because there were too many such satins in the Guangling market, they often could not be sold at a good price...... According to him, it is to reprocess these silks, shape the brand, and sell them to the famous families in the city...... Do you know how he does it? ”

Liang Qiu Wu shook his head.

"Xiao An gave the finished clothes to the scholars and talents in Guangling for free, a full two hundred sets, and what he asked those talents and scholars to make, he just told them to wear clothes printed with the mark of my Su family every day, walk on the street, and tell ......the truth when someone asks."

"That'...... Isn't that a loss? Liang Qiuwu's face was full of surprise.

"Yes" Su Wan chuckled lightly and said, "At first, it was a loss, and the deceased father was distressed, but three months later, everyone in Guangling was proud to wear clothes with the mark of my Su family, even if it was a high-ranking official...... Now that I think about it, the root of the curse was planted at that time, my Su family alone, so that countless rich merchants who sold fabrics and silk in Guangling cut off their financial routes, and they were forced to be desperate, so they had to unite and collude with the government to frame my Su family...... Do you know that the silver that my Su family earned that year was more than the concubine's deceased father's painstaking management for ten years, but unfortunately, the deceased father did not listen to Xiao An's advice and earned more silver, not only did not restrain himself, but became more and more proud, for fear that others would not know that my Su family had strong financial resources, if at that time, the deceased father could listen to the advice of Xiao Ancai and make some silver bribe the officials of Guangling, then, how could my Su family fall into the situation of losing both people and money, and the family being ruined? Speaking of this, Su Wan couldn't help but sigh, her eyebrows were filled with deep sadness.

Seeing this, Liang Qiuwu couldn't help but feel a little sympathetic in his heart, and changed the topic and said, "How much can this so-called secret of immortality be sold?" ”

"A twenty-penny copper coin...... Every time you go to a place, if you are lucky, you can sell dozens of copies of land, if you are unlucky, there are only a few copies, even if Xiao An sometimes says that the earth is chaotic, but if the local people are not rich, then there is no way to ......"

"Dozens? That's only a few taels of silver, right? Liang Qiu Wu showed a strange look.

As if she had seen through what Liang Qiu Wu was thinking, Su Wan said quite solemnly, "Although a few taels of silver is small, it is life-saving money...... The concubine who was carefree at home before, I really don't know, penniless, what kind of embarrassment it is, if it weren't for Xiao An, how could a delicate woman like a concubine who didn't go out of the door and not step out of the door be able to cross half a week and come to this Jijing ......"

Liang Qiuwu was stunned, then realized his faux pas, and said apologetically, "It's because I didn't think it through, I didn't mean to offend, I hope the young lady will forgive ......"

Su Wan glanced at Liang Qiu Wu deeply, and suddenly said with a smile, "Xiao An is the younger brother of the concubine, although there is no blood relationship, but it is better than the younger brother, since General Wu has a marriage contract with Xiao An, he is the younger brother and sister of the concubine, and the elder sister is a big one, call you a sister, can you?" ”

"This ......" Liang Qiuwu hesitated for a moment, then hugged his fists and said, "Young lady...... No, Sister Su is serious, and her sister saluted her sister......" As she spoke, she bowed to Su Wan.

"Don't dare to ......" Su Wan hurriedly helped Liang Qiuwu up, and then invited her to sit down at the table.

Glancing back at the wooden box on the dresser, Liang Qiuwu said puzzledly, "Sister Su, is the paper in that wooden box the one you left behind?" ”

"Not all" Su Wan shook her head and said, "Some are on the way, and some are in Jijing......"

"In Jijing?"

"Hmm" Su Wan nodded and said softly, "Although this idea is good, there is a flaw, that is, in one place, it can only be used once...... Although huā twenty pennies, in exchange for a smile in the heart, it is not a big deal for some people who have a lot of money, and they will not come to us for trouble, but in the final analysis, how can a person who has been fooled once be fooled a second time? ”

"Sister Su means ......" Liang Qiuwu hesitated for a moment, and said tentatively, "The rest of the paper, it won't be when An Zaijing repeats her old skills, Sister Su secretly ordered someone to buy it, right?" ”

"......" Su Wan glanced at Liang Qiu Wu when she heard this, and was noncommittal, just sighed slightly and said, "Although Xiao An seems to be easy-going, he is very stubborn and stubborn, if he makes up his mind, it will be difficult for others to make him change his mind...... Since he left Nangong Mansion angrily that day, his sister knew that in this life, he would never have anything to do with Nangong Mansion or his sister again...... He would rather starve somewhere on a cold winter night......"

"......" Liang Qiuwu opened his mouth, but he couldn't say anything.

After all, if it weren't for so many unexpected events, she wouldn't have known that his husband Xie An actually had such a relationship with Nangong Mansion.

"Sister is very grateful to you, sister, and His Royal Highness the Nine...... If it weren't for you, the concubine really wouldn't know what to do......"

Now, Liang Qiuwu actually understands that when Xie An has not yet met Li Shou, it is the woman in front of him who secretly helps Xie An.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but be a little angry.

"It shouldn't be, Ann!"

"Don't blame him" Su Wan shook her head, then blushed slightly, and whispered, "His affection for his sister, my sister also knows, it's just ......" Speaking of this, she suddenly diverted the topic and asked with a little smile, "Speaking of which, the concubine really didn't expect that Xiao An would be able to meet such a heroine as her sister...... Is my sister really uncomplaining? ”

"Huh?" Liang Qiuwu faintly felt that Su Wan's words had a bit of deep meaning, and asked suspiciously, "What complaint?" ”

I saw Su Wan pause slightly, with a faint and elusive expression, and said softly, "My sister is an important minister of the second rank in the court, and Xiao An was just a housekeeper and a house......keeper in the Anle Palace" at that time."

"It turns out that Sister Su is referring to this" Liang Qiuwu suddenly realized, didn't think much about it, and said truthfully, "Where is there no complaint, my sister hated this guy to death at that time, but I just ** him, there is no way!" ”

"Huh? Lose......**? Su Wan was stunned, her expression was indescribably shocked and strange.

Seeing that Su Wan was not an outsider, Liang Qiuwu hesitated, and explained the original incident to her, but omitted the part of the eldest grandson Xiangyu.

"I see...... Su Wan's expression looked like she couldn't laugh or cry, picked up the cup of tea on the table, and shook her head.

"As Sister Su said, I hated this guy to death at that time, obviously he was just a guest in Anle Wangfu, a housekeeper, but his tone was so big, I kindly arranged a career for him, but he refused, and when he quarreled, he said that within ten years, his official position would be above me......"

"Within 10 years...... Is it? Su Wan's hand holding the teacup trembled slightly, looked at Liang Qiu Wu deeply, and said in a somewhat heavy tone, "That'...... Then my sister just let him go? ”

Liang Qiuwu didn't have the ability to observe words and emotions like the eldest grandson Xiangyu, nor did he notice the unnatural look on Su Wan's face, nodded and said, "At that time, I was thinking, this person still has some backbone, as a man, he naturally has to rely on his own ability to make a living...... I said to him at the time, if you say it, you will spill the water, as long as you have the ability, it will not hurt to try it! ”

As soon as the words fell, I heard a clang, and the tea cup in Su Wan's hand fell on the table, and the tea suddenly soaked the table.

"Sister Su?" Liang Qiuwu looked at Su Wan suspiciously.

Su Wan woke up like a dream, quickly got up and took the rag, wiped the tea on the table, and then, with a slightly trembling tone, asked, "That sister is willing to wait for him for ten years?" ”

"Isn't that right?" Liang Qiuwu looked at Su Wan puzzled.

"No......" Su Wan let out a long sigh, then looked at Liang Qiu Wu, and said in an incomprehensible tone, "My sister is very lucky, because my sister is the owner of Donggong Mansion, if my sister was just the daughter of an ordinary family, I am afraid she would not say this......"

"Why does Sister Su think so? ――No matter what kind of identity it is, I will still say this about Liangqiu Dance! - Even if he can't, I will support him, believe in him, and help him! - My husband has the desire to forge ahead, so why should I pour cold water on him? Liang Qiuwu frowned and looked at Su Wan, looking a little displeased.

"......" Su Wan stared straight at Liang Qiu for a long time, and suddenly, she let out a long sigh and muttered, "It's my sister who won......"

"Huh?"

Looking at Liang Qiuwu's puzzled look, Su Wan smiled bitterly, and said with a straight face, "The stubborn brother of the concubine will entrust her sister in the future......" As she spoke, she seemed to have thought of something, and said with a smile, "Look at my sister's memory, invite my sister to the house for a banquet, not to mention the banquet, and forget to prepare the tea...... My sister will ask someone to prepare some food and drinks, and my sister will accompany my sister to have a drink, okay? ”

"This ......" Liang Qiuwu frowned slightly, knowing that she knew that she didn't like to drink, especially when the incident happened to the crown prince Li Wei, she was extremely resistant to drinking outside, let alone drinking the wine handed over by others, except for her husband Xie An.

Seeing that Liang Qiuwu's expression was a little resistant, Su Wan smiled slightly, and said, "Sister has been depressed these days, so my sister will accompany my sister to have a few drinks, in return, my sister told my sister some things about Xiao An, some things that he may not ......mention to his sister," she blinked.

Liang Qiuwu was thrilled when he heard this, and pretended to be calm and whispered, "That...... All right...... Are there many such things? ”

"Ahh For example, he said that someone once lied to him to go to the toilet in a thatched hut and scrape the ...... afterwards That thing, ahem! He believed it and did it, but he was scratched by a piece of bamboo and was in pain for several days......"

"Poof!" Even Liang Qiu Wu couldn't help laughing.

--Meanwhile--

"Ahh

On a mountain somewhere outside the capital of Jijing, Xie An squatted in front of Fu Bo's grave and burned paper money with Li Shou and the others, but a sneeze sprayed Li Shou's face.

"What the hell are you doing?" Wiping his face with his sleeve, Li Shou said speechlessly.

Also, anyone who is sprayed on the face will feel uncomfortable" suddenly felt an itchy nose ......" Xie An looked at Li Shou very innocently.

"Don't interrupt!" Squatting beside Xie An, the eldest grandson Xiangyu poked at the burning paper money with a thin stick, and said impatiently, "Hurry up, go on, did you fight that night?" ”

Li Shou smiled bitterly when he heard this, and continued, "Ah, the fight started, at that time, I went to the Xiguo Mansion to go to the birthday banquet, and Miss Changsun also knew that the crown prince Li Wei was also present at the time, and ridiculed me in every way, the king was in a bad mood, and rode back to the palace, but on the road was hit in the head by a basket of steamed buns thrown by this madman, and even people and horses crashed under a tree on the side of the road, fortunately, there was a lot of snow under the tree, but it would not happen...... At that time, the king was very polite ......"

"You're welcome!" Xie An pursed his lips and said disdainfully, "[In the middle of the night, what the hell are you crazy people doing?] Impatient?! This is also called politeness? ”

Li Shou was speechless, and sneered, "Anyway, this king didn't want to do anything to you at first, and asked you if something unpleasant happened, but what happened to you?" What did you say? You say, [Lao Tzu smashed you!] And pounce on it when you're done, right? ”

Xie An scratched his head a little embarrassed, suddenly his face changed, and he said angrily, "Fart! - You were the first to do it! ”

"Is there such a thing?" Li Shou was stunned, frowning and thinking for a while, still stunned.

Looking at Li Shou's innocent expression, Xie An was angry and said, "Do you still want to pretend to be garlic?" ”

"What the hell is going on! - From the beginning! The eldest grandson Xiangyu said impatiently with a small stick.

Glancing at the eldest grandson Xiangyu, Xie An and Li Shou glanced at each other, and opened their mouths in unison.

"That was the Chinese New Year's Eve of last year, and Han Hong, the Duke of Xiguo, was ...... fiftieth birthday!!."
