73 Door

On the other side, Gu Houye stayed in the Hot Spring Villa.

Gu Houye is in an important position in the capital, and it stands to reason that he can't leave for too long, but the stakes are very high, and he has written to the second son in Jingzhong, asking him to enter the palace to take leave to His Majesty.

Ordinary marquis may not be able to see His Majesty, but who let Marquis Gu's own sister be His Majesty's favorite concubine? Therefore, it is not difficult for the second son of Gu to enter the palace to face the saint.

His Majesty knew about Gu Yan's situation, and guessed that Gu Houye might not be good for Gu Yan to stay, so he asked Gu Houye to stay in the villa with peace of mind and take care of the affairs at home.

…… I just didn't say that I would return to Beijing after dealing with Gu Yan's funeral.

Gu Houye didn't know anything about His Majesty's inner drama, and he was busy looking for the child back then.

Gu Houye first found the stable woman who delivered the Yao family back then.

Wen Po was invited from a nearby village, and the search was not extensive, and news soon came.

It's a pity that the midwife passed away a few years ago, and her family only knows that she did go to the temple to deliver the baby, and she got a lot of rewards, but her family doesn't know more about it.

Gu Houye's dead horse was used as a live horse doctor, and he first searched for it from a nearby village, and really found some clues.

There are five children born in the temple, one of them is eighteen, one is nineteen, and the other is only seven years old, all three of them are not the right age, and the remaining two are the right age, all of them are villagers at the foot of the mountain, one is in Xinghua Village, and the other is in Qingquan Village.

Gu Houye's henchmen and guards went to Xinghua Village first, but when they came to the door, they found that the other party was a male baby, and the month was not right.

The dragon and phoenix fetus was born in October, and the male baby was born in August.

In this way, only the child from Qingquan Village is left.

If this is not right, they will have to go outside Qingquan Town to find it, and then the scope of the search will be wide.

"Master Hou." The guard in charge of this investigation is called Huang Zhong, who is a confidant brought by Gu Hou Ye from the capital, he said, "Hou Ye, Qingquan Village is not a village at the foot of the temple mountain, it has gone around to the other side of the mountain, I'm afraid it will ......."

The odds are not very high.

Gu Houye also thought so, so he put Qingquan Village in the last investigation.

Gu Hou Ye didn't have much hope in his heart, and said to Huang Zhong: "You go and see it first, if you don't come back, don't leak the news, yes...... I'll be waiting for you at the tea shop in town. ”

"Yes."

After Huang Zhong received the order, he immediately took a carriage to Qingquan Village.

Huang Zhong is in his early forties, burly, with a gentle face, and he looks like a good person, and it is easy to gain the trust of strangers.

"That's the Gu family's baby!" An uncle sitting in front of his house basking in the sun said.

This uncle is a little old, and he is dazzled and forgetful, so he remembers that there is a doll in the Gu family that was born in the temple.

"Which Gu family?" Huang Zhong asked.

"Lizheng! Gu Lizheng! With a wave of his hand, the uncle showed the way.

Actually surnamed Gu? What a coincidence.

Huang Zhong thanked the uncle and drove the carriage to the Gu family's old house.

Gu Dashun and Gu Xiaoshun went to study, Gu Li was taking Gu Changhai to Yamen to receive rice and grain, Gu Changlu and Gu Ershun were spring sown in the field, and there were only Gu Yue'e and Wu's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law at home.

It was Gu Yue'e who opened the door.

It's not the first time Gu Yue'e has seen the nobleman and the carriage, but she is still stunned: "You, who are you looking for?" ”

The country girl has never seen the world, this reaction is normal, Huang Zhong smiled and said, "May I ask if Gu Li is there?" ”

Gu Yue'e was afraid to talk to a strange man, so she turned her head and ran into the house: "Milk! Someone looking for grandpa! ”

The three mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were chopping chili peppers in the backyard, and when they saw Gu Yue'e running in a panic, Wu frowned impatiently: "Who is looking for your grandfather?" ”

Gu Yue'e pointed back: "I don't know, I came in a big carriage." ”

As soon as he heard that it was a carriage, Wu's expression was different.

Wu put down the kitchen knife in his hand, wiped his hands with a rag, and walked quickly to the door.

The carriage of the two horses that Huang Zhong was sitting in was one more horse than the carriage of the steward who sent the post to Gu Xiaoshun last time, and the Wu family suddenly had a measure in his heart, this person's identity was higher than that of the dean of the academy!

But how could such a noble man come to their house?

Wu smiled and asked, "Who are you?" What's the matter with me? ”

"My surname is Huang. I have heard that there is a child in your family who was born in the temple, and I would like to inquire about the child. ”

Wu's smile suddenly disappeared.

It's looking for that little calamity, as long as you have something to do with that little calamity, it's probably not good!

Wu was about to close the door with a black face, but Liu walked over with a flash in his eyes and said with a smile: "That can't be inquired in vain." ”

Huang Zhong understood, his smile remained unchanged, and he took out a silver ingot from his arms.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law's eyes instantly widened.

Liu reached out to take it, but Wu snatched the silver in his hand first! Liu secretly gritted her teeth, it was the silver she wanted, how did it end up in her mother-in-law's pocket?

After Wu received the money, his face looked much better: "What do you want to ask, ask!" ”

"How old is that kid? Is it a girl? ”

"Fourteen! Girl! ”

This time, Huang Zhong's eyes lit up: "What month was it born?" ”

This can stop the Wu family, a little fool who loses money, who would bother to remember her birthday.

Liu Shi hurriedly said: "I, I, I know!" Born in October! ”

She just became pregnant with Gu Xiaoshun that month, so she was very impressed.

Unexpectedly, even the month was right, and Huang Zhong's heart began to get excited: "What is it?" ”

"Seventeen or eighteen?" This Liu can't remember clearly, it seems that except for Gu Xiaoshun, no one will remember Gu Jiao's birthday.

The dragon and phoenix fetus was born on the eighteenth, and these clues can be said to be very close.

Huang Zhong held back his excitement and continued to ask, "In which temple was he born?" ”

Liu pointed and said, "Where else is the temple on the other side of the mountain?" ”

It just so happened that at this time, Gu Changlu came out with a hoe.

Liu Shi beckoned to him: "Ershun his father, was Jiao Niang born on the eighteenth or seventeenth?" ”

"Eighteen, what's wrong?" Gu Changlu said as he looked at the man and the carriage in front of the door strangely.

Huang Zhong was so excited that everything was right, it should be right. Unexpectedly, the child who had no hope at all was actually the child they were looking for!

Gu Changlu came to the side of the Wu family and the Liu family, and at this time, the Zhou family also came out to see the excitement.

Only Gu Yue'e was timid, hiding at the back door of the hall and looking secretly here.

Huang Zhong's excitement couldn't be hidden, Gu Changlu glanced him up and down, and asked Liu, "Why did you suddenly ask about Jiao Niang?" ”

Liu pulled Gu Changlu aside, pointed to Wu's pocket, and whispered: "He came to inquire about Jiao Niang's news and gave a piece of silver, which was all taken away by his mother!" ”

Gu Changlu glared at Liu, dissatisfied with Liu's complaining about his wife in this tone, but he didn't agree with Wu's approach.

He walked up to Wu's side and said, "Mother, we can't accept this silver." ”

Wu tightened his purse: "Why can't you take it?" ”

Gu Changlu glanced at Huang Zhong and said, "I don't know who he is, what is Jiao Niang doing?" What if he is a bad person and plots against Jiao Niang? ”

Wu Shi was not happy when he heard this, that little disaster star did her? If you die, you will save the whole family from harm!
