When Gu Zhun returned to the house in the carriage, he found that his father was half-lying on a recliner, his face full of satisfaction and satisfaction.

Chai Yan was gently massaging his father's shoulder, and he also looked a little happy.

Gu Zhun didn't know why his father was so happy, and just stepped forward.

"Good!"

Gu Jiuming's sudden shout frightened Gu Zhun into a spirit.

Looking up again, Gu Zhun saw Gu Jiuming looking at him with a satisfied face, and praised with a smile on his mouth: "Good boy!"

Belch......

What are you doing here? Praise me and praise me! What are you doing in a daze?

Gu Zhun complained in his heart, maintaining the smile that a good child should have.

At this time, a rather hoarse voice sounded: "Gu Jiuming, you old horseman still looks like this dog after so many years, I heard your broken gong voice outside the gate!"

Hearing this, Gu Zhun frowned and turned around, and saw a man with a white face and beard wrapped in a thick cotton coat walking in without passing the word.

Gu Zhun couldn't tell whether this person was friend or foe, but Gu Jiuming had already responded with a smile: "Hahaha, Xu Peng, long time no see!"

After saying hello, Gu Jiuming turned around and smiled: "Quick, Gu Zhun, call someone!" This is Xu Peng, your uncle, well, friend's friend!"

Xu Peng looked at Gu Jiuming expressionlessly and said, "Gu Jiuming, do you really want to be beaten?"

"Hehe, Xu Peng, you lost your bird in the palace many years ago, didn't you just become Xu Peng?" Gu Jiuming took it for granted.

Hearing that Gu Jiuming was still poor, the beardless old eunuch's momentum changed, and he stepped forward suddenly.

Gu Zhun was about to leave, but Chai Yan stopped Gu Zhun and said with a smile: "Shizi, it's okay, just look at it!"

Gu Zhun was stunned for a moment, and stopped to look at the situation over there.

I saw that Xu Peng...... Oh no, Xu Peng stretched out a hand, twisted Gu Jiuming's wrist, grabbed Gu Jiuming and said, "You old horseman, you are injured and you can't even cultivate, and you dare to play poor with me?"

"Hey, Lao Chai, give me a beat up this guy who has no birds!" Gu Jiuming didn't admit defeat.

Gu Zhun was happy to watch the excitement on the side at this time, he knew that his father was not in shape, that is, he had met an old friend for many years.

Gu Jiuming couldn't bear to look at the devastation for a while.

"For the sake of your son's presence, save some face for your old puppet. Xu Peng's face was expressionless.

Gu Jiuming muttered: "When Lao Tzu's cultivation is restored, I'll give you Xu Peng a little bit of color!"

Chai Yan, who had always been calm, asked on the side: "Lao Xu, why did you suddenly come to Yongzhou?

"I have come to proclaim my decree. Xu Peng looked at Gu Zhun and said lightly, "Gu Zhun, take the order!"

......

......

The capital of the Great Xia Dynasty, the palace of the British king.

This is the residence of Wei Zhao, the fifth son of the monarch of Great Xia.

Wei Zhao was originally the youngest son of Wei Yang, the monarch of Great Xia, but in addition to the crown prince, he was the first of the other princes to be crowned king, which is enough to see Wei Yang's favor for him.

At this time, in the front yard of the palace, there are three freehand and chic calligraphy and paintings placed together.

Li Qingxue was invited by Wei Zhao and was tasting.

"Miss Qingxue, I heard that you have studied calligraphy and painting quite a lot, are there any authentic works of Mr. Yan Ning in these three painting scrolls that this king found?" Wei Zhao asked with a smile.

After carefully studying it for a long time, Li Qingxue said lightly: "Your Highness, according to my observation, these three paintings are all fakes. ”

Li Qingxue paused, just to talk about her basis.

Wei Zhao didn't wait for Li Qingxue to speak, his face showed a touch of annoyance, and he kicked an internal official next to him: "Take these three paintings for me and burn them!"

"Your Highness, don't you listen to how the little girl ......" Li Qingxue was a little stunned.

Wei Zhao waved his hand impatiently: "I don't care if they are real or not, as long as someone thinks they are fake, then they are all fake!

Several officials had already hurriedly taken the three paintings to the firewood room in the backyard.

Wei Zhao made a gesture of invitation to Li Qingxue.

Li Qingxue bowed slightly, and walked inside.

The two sat in the hall together, and naturally a maid had already cooked tea and served it to the two of them.

Taking a sip of the fragrant tea in the cup, Wei Zhao suddenly asked, "Miss Qingxue, when you were in Yongzhou, were you familiar with that Gu Zhun?"

When Li Qingxue heard Gu Zhun's name, a faint hatred suddenly flashed in her eyes.

Then, quickly, Li Qingxue pretended to have a look of surprise on her face and asked, "Why did Your Highness suddenly ask about Gu Zhun?"

"Isn't everyone talking about it lately?" Wei Zhao showed a smile on his face, "Then Gu Zhun is also going to be a marquis, the Gu family is about to have two marquis, and the Marquis of Zhenbei will also be in command of the Northern Expedition, if everything goes well, he will have unprecedented prestige in the entire north!"

"If such two fathers and sons come to support this king, presumably, then it is only a matter of time before this king wins over the lame Wei Cheng and is made the crown prince, right?"

"So, this king thought, Miss Qingxue, you were also in Yongzhou before, if you know that Gu Zhun, you might as well introduce one or two to this king?"

It is probably that the previous kings of Bactria were too dictatorial and did not allow their children to participate in politics and politics, but after the current monarch came to the throne, it was just the opposite, he not only encouraged many of his sons to participate in politics, but also did not completely prohibit his children from having dealings with some courtiers and princes.

Hearing Wei Zhao's words, Li Qingxue's fingers holding the teacup suddenly became a little harder, and the knuckles seemed to be a little white.

Now, whether Li Jingqian can return to officialdom depends on whether the king is willing to help...... It can be said that all the hopes of their Li family are pinned on the British king.

If King Ying and Gu Zhun father and son form an alliance, then wouldn't she have no chance to take revenge on Gu Zhun again?

Gently putting down the teacup, Li Qingxue said slowly: "Your Highness's plan, I'm afraid it's going to fail!"

"Oh?" Wei Zhao raised his eyebrows, slightly displeased, "What do you say?"

"Let's not talk about Gu Zhun first, just talk about the Marquis of Zhenbei, His Royal Highness may have heard of the name of the Marquis of Zhenbei Gangzheng and loyalty, right?" asked Li Qingxue.

Wei Zhao nodded.

Li Qingxue continued: "As far as I know, the Marquis of Zhenbei attaches the most importance to tradition and etiquette, and in the minds of people like him, of course, he will inherently support His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, not His Royal Highness the King of England!

Hearing this, Wei Zhao's brows were still furrowed, and based on the evaluations and statements he had heard about the Marquis of Zhenbei, it was really very possible for Li Qingxue's analysis to become true?

Wei Zhao couldn't help but ask: "In this way, if this Gu family is really one family and two marquis, and the Marquis of Zhenbei conquers the Great Victory, all of this will not only not help this king in the slightest, but on the contrary, they will become a powerful help for this king's lame brother?"

Li Qingxue did not respond, based on her observation of Wei Zhao for many days, she knew that it was best to be silent at this time, and silence is better than sound.

Sure enough, seeing that Li Qingxue didn't speak, Wei Zhao's face was even more ugly.

"Miss Qingxue, you can go back first. On the king's side, there are still some things. Wei Zhao said, got up directly, and left with a gesture.

"Congratulations to His Royal Highness!" facing Wei Zhao's back, Li Qingxue saluted.

Walking on the steps of the British Palace, Li Qingxue tightened the mink scarf around her neck, and the corners of her mouth showed a little sarcasm.

According to Li Qingxue's understanding of this Wei Zhao, this person is a completely spoiled child.

As long as Wei Zhao has a pimple in his heart about the Gu family now,

So, next, how can the Gu family not mention it first, at least Gu Zhun, who is about to come to the capital, should be targeted by Wei Zhao in various ways.
