Chapter 45: The Known Truth
Su Manxue realized that the summer was almost over, and the days of her marriage to Ji Jiuhua had passed so long.
Autumn in the capital has quietly come, just a few days ago, when the leaves fell, she didn't react, and now that Gu Qin reminded her, she felt that there was something missing between her and Ji Jiuhua.
"I won't care more about the things that will be tried, if the proposition is leaked at that time, I'm afraid it will have something to do with the prince, this kind of thing is really unspeakable."
Su Manxue stretched out his hand and grabbed Ji Jiuhua's arm, he already wanted to leave this place of right and wrong, originally he only talked to Gu Qin for half an hour, but now it is almost time to have lunch.
She didn't want to miss the food in Ji Mansion at all, not to mention that he ordered the small kitchen to be more delicate for today's lunch, and now Ji Jiuhua is back, of course, the two of them need to have lunch and have a good chat, she doesn't want the two of them to live a dull life, she wants to discuss the matter of going out to play with Ji Jiuhua.
"Since there is nothing to talk about between us, then the prince will hurry back to the house, Sister Chu Yin is afraid that she is very anxious to wait for the prince, and the prince must not have gone to the morning court today, stop me so early in the morning, I really don't know what the prince has intentions."
Ji Jiuhua didn't know what Gu Qin had done early in the morning, but Su Manxue knew it very well in her heart.
The two of them didn't wait for Gu Qin to say anything, they left on their own, leaving Gu Qin alone to sit in place with an extremely ugly face, surrounded by the crowd around him.
The surrounding crowd originally had doubts and speculations about whether Ji Jiuhua came over to break the siege or scold and catch the traitor, but seeing this scene now, everyone was also clear in their hearts.
"Your Royal Highness doesn't have to be too sad, I heard a few days ago that Young Lady Ji congratulated you on your marriage to Sister Chu, presumably this time the two are talking because of this matter."
Gu Qin walked over to a son of a dignitary, Gu Qin was still thinking that this person was a little familiar, looking at the bright jade pendant hanging from his waist, he also remembered who this person was.
"Young Master Jin, this is really a coincidence." This person is the young master of the first-class guard family, although the surname is Jin, he is not in business, but a martial artist.
It is rumored that this young master Jin is weak and not good at martial arts, which is not bad in Guozijian culture, and he also helped the family take care of some shop property, but he didn't expect to be a small success.
Now the Jin family is also doing well in the capital, there is a father who is a third-grade official, and there is a shop management and control, that is, Young Master Jin.
"What the prince said is too polite, if I can make friends with this brother with the prince, I will also climb high."
Also, with Gu Qin's identity before the quarrel with the Pingyang Palace, he, the only son of a prince with a different surname, even the emperor had to sell them a little face.
Some people even secretly speculate inside, when will the emperor pull out this thorn in the flesh in his eye so that he can sleep peacefully, and now even Gu Qin and Pingyang Wangfu have a falling out, some people are thinking about whether it is a play they deliberately performed, in order to let the emperor relax his vigilance, they are waiting for an opportunity to do it.
Fortunately, Gu Qin didn't do anything, even going up and down normally every day, doing what a petty official should do, and the king of Pingyang never came back from Lizhou City, and the family didn't make any movement, so everyone slowly relaxed.
However, there are also rumors that in fact, the emperor secretly sent a team of brocade guards to carefully watch the Pingyang Palace, but there is no real evidence, everyone just listened to the rumors, and regarded them as a conversation after dinner, and no one believed these words.
Of course, the truth or falsehood of this matter is estimated only by the emperor himself.
"Young Master Jin, what he said is polite, your father can be a first-class guard in the palace, this is not a position that ordinary people can sit on, since the two of us are so fateful today, why don't we open a box and have a good drink or two?"
Maybe a long time ago, Gu Qin didn't have to think about doing these things at all, but since he has now broken up with the Pingyang Palace, he has no power at all, he can only be a petty official by himself, and only Chu Yin has no help by his side.
Still, he wasn't prepared to compromise with his parents.
In response to the quarrel between him and the king of Pingyang in the inner day, he also wrote to his hometown in Lizhou City, willing to give in, but Princess Pingyang's reply made Chu Yin leave the capital Pingyang Palace.
Gu Qin wrote a letter again to refute Princess Pingyang, and told Princess Pingyang that he liked Chu Ying very much, and even expressed his desire to marry her, and received an extremely angry reply from Princess Pingyang.
Only then did Gu Qin know that the reason for the last time he fell out with his parents was not what his homework was, but that they wanted to take the opportunity to drive Chu Yin away.
Also, since the last time Princess Pingyang had such a big opinion about Su Manxue being the daughter of a small official family, and her cousin Chu Yin was not an official position, if she didn't have some relatives with his family, she might not be able to survive in the capital.
How could his mother possibly agree?
Gu Qin thought about it again and again, and finally burned the letter, and replied to his mother sincerely, saying that he was serious about Cousin Chu Yin, and it was impossible for him to let go of Cousin Chu Yin.
In this way, the news that Princess Pingyang was sick in bed came from Lizhou City, Gu Qin didn't want to think about it and knew that this was his mother's usual trick, and wanted him to relent, so that he could take the opportunity to control him, but he was not fooled, he just sent a letter home to care about Princess Pingyang, and so far, no letter came back from Lizhou City.
In addition, Chu Yin also sent several letters in the middle, but they were all sunk in the sea, Chu Yin ordered someone to send some soothing sachets and sachets, and some soothing incense bought in the capital to send back, and Lizhou City also did not reply to her.
Gu Qin carried these words alone, and did not dare to tell Chu Yin, for fear of hurting her.
He was afraid that under the strong request of his mother and father, Chu Yin would really leave him, just to achieve his career, in order to let him inherit the family business, she was willing to give up herself, and he also believed that Chu Yin had done these things.
Thinking of this, Gu Qin strengthened his belief that he wanted to give Chu Yin a home.
It's just that Su Manxue is in front, and he can't forget this favorite, and now he hates Ji Jiuhua, if she hadn't intervened at the beginning, Su Manxue would never have empathized and passed on to others.
At this time, he completely forgot about his mother's persecution of others, and only felt that everything was Su Manxue's fault.
"Shiziye, Shiziye?" Young Master Jin Jin Cheng's hand shook twice in front of Gu Qin, "What are you thinking?" ”
