When Shen Qing left East Lake, he threw away the mask on his face, revealing another drooping old face, but those eyes seemed to be more brilliant than some time ago, like a sword blade piercing into his heart.

He glanced lightly at the pavilion not far away, sneered lightly and walked towards the Ye Mansion, and as soon as he walked to the door, he saw the Ye family's housekeeper hurriedly greet him.

"Sir, are you back?"

Shen Qingci's eyebrows were lightly tense, and his voice was extremely low: "But what happened?" ”

"The mansion was a mess just now, but fortunately, my cousin came back safely."

After the housekeeper muttered beside him about the East Lake tragedy, the various mansions were anxious when they heard the wind, after all, many boudoir girls and sons of families today went to East Lake to release river lanterns, and if there was a good one, it was really impossible to explain.

After the East Lake tragedy, they immediately wanted to find the steward from Qinzhou, but this steward usually saw the head and the end, which made him frightened.

"She's gone to East Lake?"

Shen Qingci's furrowed brows tightened, he hadn't reminded her, but she always took her words as a deaf ear.

"Yes."

Listening to the Ye family's steward's affirmative answer, Shen Qingci did not stop, arched his hand towards him, and walked directly towards the old lady's residence, and went directly to the old lady's courtyard to ask to see Gu Jinshu.

Shen Qingci is a person who is relied on by Gu Mingsheng, and he is fully responsible for accompanying the capital this time, so even if the old lady knows that there is a difference between inside and outside, she didn't see Gu Jinshu in front of him, but she just mentioned a lot.

"Your father let a bookkeeper live in the inner house?"

The old lady knows the temperament of her son-in-law, and she is a humble gentleman cultivated by the way of Confucius and Mencius, although she is not very proficient in this internal affairs, she will never be able to make such a decision as Meng Lang, after all, there are still female dependents in the inner house.

Do you want the reputation of these female dependents?

However, what is so good about this old gentleman who can make such a huge regression for his son-in-law, who has always been polite?

"Yes, if my grandmother has the opportunity, she can mention her father, after all, I am afraid that her reputation is not very good."

Gu Jinshu thought about asking the old lady for help after the initial dissuasion was fruitless, but she was worried that there was a gap between the old lady and Gu Mingsheng, you must know that the relationship between the mother-in-law and the son-in-law was not good.

"What about your stepmother? Co-authoring is a dead man? After thinking about it, the face became even more ugly, "Her two daughters are still young, so don't they care about your reputation?" ”

If it weren't for Gu Mingsheng's child, and she was worried that Gu Mingsheng, who was in the prime of life, would marry a more powerful house-filler, her Ye family would not let go.

"You don't have to worry about this matter, I'll mention it to your father."

"It's just you and your father ......"

"Don't worry about me arguing with him, although I am sorry for your mother, people always have to look forward, he is your father after all."

If ordinary people don't get along with each other in old age, but as long as Xiao Shu'er and Jinhe are there, then the Ye family and the Gu family will break their bones and connect their tendons.

- She can't always avoid Gu Mingsheng and hate it.

"Okay."

The old lady paused, glanced out the window again, looked at the swaying figure there and said softly: "It's just that this time he is worried that you are in danger from Donghu, so he can't avoid it, and I will let him come to the hall in a while." ”

"Hmm."

Shen Qingci waited outside for a while, and then the old lady ordered someone to call her to the lobby, looked at the old lady on the seat, he bowed his hand and saluted, and then his eyes were on Gu Jinshu: "It is said that there was an assassination in Donghu just now, but the girl was frightened?" ”

Although he knew that she was the life picked up from the pile of bones, and had seen a more brutal slaughter than this, but when he learned that she went to the East Lake, the calm as water, his heart was overflowing with a trace of discomfort after all.

- Not an obedient one.

"No, don't worry about the old gentleman."

Shen Qingci's expression was not leaky, and Gu Jinshu was not far behind, and the two of them ended their very brief conversation with expressionless faces.

Waiting for Shen Qing to leave, the old lady who had been sitting there without saying a word whispered: "Look, there is nothing outstanding about it, why does your father look up to this person?" ”

"Maybe you know how to deceive people!"

Isn't it confusing to know the afterlife? He was afraid that he said something that her father couldn't refuse, which made him like a fish in water in the Gu family.

"I'm afraid the assassination of everyone Liao is not simple, you must not leave the house recently."

The old lady was worried that similar things would continue to happen, so she told her a few times about this matter, and only then did she breathe a sigh of relief when she looked at Gu Jinshu's serious nodding appearance.

And the Liao family in their mouths had already entered the Jiuque Palace at this time, and the emperor in the imperial study, who was over half a hundred years old, was squinting at her closely.

"You mean, King Chen is here?"

Although the emperor tried his best to control his emotions, the tight fingers still revealed his nervousness at this time, and the so-called King Chen obviously had a great impact on him.

"Yes, Ran Yichen has arrived in the capital."

Although those blue-clothed guards didn't dare to say anything, her Liao family firm had been walking in Beicang and Da Zhou for many years, and as long as she caught a little clue, it was not difficult to find out the person.

It's just that her secret son just heard that Ran Yichen had entered the accompanying capital, and was about to continue to follow up but had already been killed, and the body was thrown at her door, and the blood-red blood stains made people stand in fear.

"This Beicang country is too deceitful, I gave up the capital in order to accompany the capital to start again, but they even want to destroy the last retreat for me."

The emperor in front of him is also a person who has been killed and killed, even if he doesn't deliberately target everyone Liao with his words, everyone Liao's heart still twitches slightly.

"The ambitions of the wolf son of Beicang Country have been revealed, and I am afraid that it will not work to negotiate peace."

"What happened to the Liao family firm?"

"Although the profit is not as good as in the early years, it is also quite impressive."

Liao said this sincerely, and the emperor in front of him couldn't think about whether he believed her, so he just listened to him: "Although you and I are half-brothers, I have treated you well over the years, if this country can't be defended, we must leave a way out for the Zhou royal family." ”

More than 30 years ago, when the capital was lost and the royal family fled, Concubine Liao at that time was calculated, and was sold to the mountains to be a mother-in-law for a man in the mountains, and then gave birth to the Liao family.

No one thought that his identity was not obvious at that time, and his talent was not obvious, and he would become the final winner, and after he succeeded to the throne, he finally found his biological mother back, but he had already been wrong.

Concubine Liao died of depression soon after returning to the palace with him, and he did not have much affection for this sister, who was a fellow brother and had a great age difference, until she later became the Liao family, and he noticed it step by step.

It's just that at that time, he just looked at the face very similar to his mother's concubine, and the reason why he finally chose to reuse this half-sister was because she showed a high talent for business.
