Gu Banqin wanted to stop the ecstatic shopkeeper, but before he could speak, Helian Hongyi turned around at the door and shouted to Gu Banqin: "What are you doing in a daze, let's go." Here's it to them. ”

Gu Banqin reluctantly took two steps to the door, and as if she remembered something, she suddenly stopped, came to Gu Xiuxian and Gu Anxiu, and said to them:

"Unfortunately, I still have something to do today, and I have to go back with me, if there is a chance next time, our sisters will catch up again."

After finishing speaking, Gu Banqin trotted all the way out of the Anhui Hairpin Pavilion before Helian Hongyi was impatient and urged again, and the people inside seemed to be able to hear her complaining to Helian Hongyi:

"Why didn't you say something earlier, this is in a hurry......"

Liu Youcheng and Master Tong glanced at each other, and shook their heads helplessly, only Concubine Xian dared to complain about the emperor's decision like this, and the most surprising thing is that the emperor seems to have a high tolerance for Concubine Xian's complaints, and he has never seen the emperor angry because of this, and he is simply flirting!

Gu Banqin and Helian Hongyi rode in a carriage, escorted by Bi Geng and others, and left without dust, leaving an embarrassing room in the Anhui Hairpin Pavilion.

As the money bag of the Great Qi Dynasty, Lord Tong naturally had to go into battle in person, and the smiling shopkeeper of the Anhui Hairpin Pavilion led him to the settlement.

Gu Xiuxian and Gu Anxiu faced Liu Youcheng, Gu Xiuxian was particularly embarrassed, but she couldn't suppress the curiosity in her heart, walked to Liu Youcheng's side, and asked Liu Youcheng:

"That'...... That's your grandfather? ”

Liu Youcheng glanced at Gu Xiuxian, and knew what she was thinking, she didn't want to deal with the Gu family, but no matter what, this is also Niangniang's sister.

Liu Youcheng nodded to Gu Xiuxian, Gu Xiuxian saw this, and immediately her expression became unnatural, and her eyes followed the carriage that had long disappeared on the street, maybe even she didn't realize how jealous the expression on her face was at the moment.

Tian Yongnian didn't notice her, he knew that the sixth lady of the Gu family was now named a virtuous concubine, and the previous one should be the emperor.

Tian Yongnian was a little regretful that he didn't seize this opportunity, no matter what he said, he should have stepped forward to introduce himself, seeing that although the middle-aged scribe was not good-looking, he still had some bearing, he should not be a eunuch in the palace, and he should be an official.

Tian Yongnian stepped forward and bowed deeply, saluted Liu Youcheng, and reported his name, Liu Youcheng knew that he was a member of the Tian family, and also followed a few words of greeting.

Gu Xiuxian's gaze was pulled back by Gu Anxiu, Gu Anxiu pulled Gu Xiuxian's sleeve and whispered to Gu Xiuxian:

"Fifth sister, that one is ...... How is it different from what is rumored? Seem...... It's not as unbearable as the big sister said. ”

What's wrong with that?

Since Gu Nianshu came back to cry and complain about grievances, the Gu family has imagined the emperor's appearance as that kind of bull, ghost, snake and god, thinking that he is really a barbarian who drinks blood, but today I happened to see it, although he has no expression, and he looks a little cold, but he is as beautiful as a pine, and his handsome and extraordinary appearance is seen by everyone.

Gu Xiuxian retracted her gaze and said coldly to Gu Anxiu:

"What is different, what can you tell if people are separated from their stomachs? Don't know how to pretend to understand, talk nonsense, be careful, and when you go back, I tell my mother and let my mother tear your mouth. ”

Gu Anxiu was so frightened by Gu Xiuxian that she shrank her head, Tian Yue on the side didn't know much about what happened today, so she leaned over and asked them:

"What the hell are you talking about? That lady was your sister before? Is that man her father-in-law? ”

Tian Yue's words seemed to offend Gu Xiuxian, which made Gu Xiuxian react so much:

"What kind of lady is a husband, she is just a concubine, how expensive can it be?"

Tian Yue didn't expect that the sentence she asked unintentionally made Gu Xiuxian so excited, and because Gu Xiuxian's voice was loud, it happened to be heard by Tian Yongnian, who had finished talking to Liu Youcheng, Tian Yongnian came to Gu Xiuxian, looked at her pointedly, and then said to Tian Yue:

"Children's families, don't ask too much. The fifth girl is too, this kind of rebellion, lest it be a disaster, and you must not say it again in the future. ”

Gu Xiuxian also knew that her words were inappropriate, and pointed it out to Tian Yongnian in person, she already had mixed feelings in her heart, seeing Gu Banqin now, Gu Xiuxian had a feeling of jealousy and chagrin, and she couldn't control it for a while, and vented it well, biting her lip, and whispered back to Tian Yongnian:

"You want to teach me a lesson before you pass the door?"

Tian Yongnian didn't expect Gu Xiuxian to say this, and he was also stunned, and wanted to say something more, but saw Gu Xiuxian's embarrassed expression, and rushed out of the Anhui Hairpin Pavilion with her skirt.

When Gu Anxiu saw her leaving, she also ran out, and the personal maids hurriedly caught up, leaving Tian Yue to jump behind, saying that it was good to go shopping, and there was no shopping on the street.

Liu Youcheng saw everything that happened in the building in his eyes, and did not say anything, Tian Yongnian felt a little rude, and personally went to Liu Youcheng and said:

"The fifth girl is young, what she said today is not from her heart, adults must not be surprised."

He was afraid that Gu Xiuxian's saying that Concubine Xian was a concubine would reach the emperor's ears and cause trouble to the two families, so he specially came to explain the situation to Liu Youcheng.

Liu Youcheng returned the salute: "Childe don't worry, it's just a little girl's casual words, and there won't be any trouble." ”

Liu Youcheng has always been modest, seeing that this son of the Tian family is polite and polite, and his speech is clear, and the Tian family is also a century-old family, he would actually deign to marry a concubine of the Gu family as his wife, and from the words and deeds of that concubine, it is really not worthy of this Tian Gongzi, and it will be good not to cause trouble for him in the future.

It's just that Liu Youcheng can't say these words to him, and only relaxes him to the greatest extent.

Tian Yongnian was grateful, and then left the Anhui Hairpin Pavilion with Tian Yue.

Liu Youcheng looked at the direction they were leaving, twisting his beard thoughtfully.

Until Master Tong walked over with a knee-long bill, and sighed while walking, Liu Youcheng was attracted by him, and when he saw him like this, he couldn't help but quip:

"I usually knew that you were stingy, but I didn't expect to be stingy like this, didn't you just buy a few pieces of jewelry, as for this bankrupt expression?"

Master Tong handed the list in his hand to Liu Youcheng, and said without love:

"How many pieces of jewelry? That's 10,000 taels of silver. Ye is really generous, do you know how much money you haven't finished reading that baby? Eight thousand taels! ”

Liu Youcheng didn't have much feeling about money, anyway, he didn't have to take it out of his pocket, ten thousand taels sounded to him about the same as one tael, and after glancing at the list, he smiled and returned the list to Lord Tong:

"I've bought everything, what's the use of a sad face? The lord will spend money like this, and the lady is not worried, and you, the bookkeeper, don't have to think more about how to make money. ”

Master Tong glanced at Liu Youcheng, read the bill from beginning to end, sighed heartbrokenly, thought about it or was still unwilling, turned around and shouted to the shopkeeper who collected the money and was diligently packing:

"Think about it, your price is high enough, why does a pair of pearl heads cost 8,000 taels? Are you deliberately lying to me? No, no, you have to send us something more, I've bought so many of your homes, and I'll send some more...... Otherwise, if you don't buy it, it's pure gold and it's not so expensive......"

The bargaining sound of Lord Tong made Liu Youcheng laugh helplessly, and the money bag felt sorry for the money.

Gu Banqin and Helian Hongyi sat in the carriage back to the palace, Helian Hongyi had been leaning there to read, Gu Banqin looked at him several times, and then couldn't help but ask Helian Hongyi:

"You...... Where to sleep tonight? ”

Helian Hongyi raised his eyes and looked at Gu Banqin, smiled, and laughed in his voice: "Where do you want me to sleep?" ”

Gu Banqin's old face flushed, no longer entangled in this question, and diverted the topic: "I didn't expect to meet Sister Xian'er and Sister Xiu'er, it seems that Sister Xian'er should be married." ”

Gu Xiuxian's marriage to Gu Banqin didn't know that it was normal, but she was very interested in the object of Gu Xiuxian's marriage: "Look at that son, it seems to be quite knowledgeable, I don't know whose family." ”

Although he said so, Gu Banqin would not have thought that the family that could make Gu Fengmao marry his daughter out must not be a child of a poor family, but must be from a famous family.

Originally, I just asked casually, and I didn't expect to get an answer, but I didn't expect Helian Hongyi to know:

"Tian Yongnian, the son of the Tian family, is a relatively capable person among the children of the Shi clan."

"Tian family?" Gu Banqin didn't know about these scholars, so he didn't understand what the 'Tian family' meant.

Helian Hongyi didn't plan to explain to her in detail, but only replied: "Anyway, in the southeast boundary, the momentum of the Tian family is no less than that of the Gu family in Jiankang, so you should understand, right?" ”

is so powerful, the Gu family is a century-old family, since the Tian family is also from the same family, will they marry Gu Xiuxian?

Ling Gu Banqin felt a little strange: "A scholar like this, not the most important concubine, the son of the Tian family, how can he marry the concubine of the Gu family?" ”

Although Gu Banqin and Helian Hongyi both agreed to abolish the scholar system, how could the Gu family and the Tian family be so unruly, Helian Hongyi turned a page of the book and did not immediately answer Gu Banqin's question, but Gu Banqin himself came to his senses:

"It seems that the Shi clan is really in chaos, a bit of a rat trap, is there something wrong with the Tian family in the southeast, this is the meaning of wanting to develop in Jiankang. That's why he used his eldest son's marriage to tie up with the Gu family, do you want to form an alliance with the Gu family? ”

Helian Hongyi didn't look up, but a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and when Gu Banqin saw this, he asked, "Am I guessing right, the emperor said something?" ”

"The Tian family suffered some losses some time ago, several rooms in the family were proposed to split overnight, which greatly weakened the power of the Tian family, and several Tian families appeared in the southeast overnight, all of them were of the same clan and the same lineage, and the eldest son of the second room was ruthless, Tian Yongnian, the eldest son of the big house, suffered a lot of losses in his hands, and the power of the Tian family's big house was gradually weakening, and the Tian family wanted to switch to Jiankang, but how could they come for no reason, they always had to sacrifice something."
