In the afternoon of the same day, everyone knew that the emperor intended to promote Gu Wu to the secretary of the military department.

became a second-class official, which surprised everyone.

"Has this Gu Wu been treated differently by the emperor?" A look of doubt appeared on Mrs. Qian's face, "Master, have you gotten any news?" ”

Master Qian frowned and shook his head: "King Xian has already told me, let me not meddle in this matter, I'm afraid there is a lot of article in this matter." ”

"But the bell ...... over there"

"Don't worry, the bell will be fine."

Master Qian took a deep look at Mrs. Qian, and Mrs. Qian breathed a sigh of relief.

And the Qin family, Qin Fangyu and Lord Qin were also talking about this matter in the study.

"Hmph, this Gu Wu, there was Su Zhongliang and his two sons to escort him before, so naturally no one dared to touch him."

"Now that there is no Su family, but they are still jumping happily, it naturally attracts the attention of many people." Lord Qin shook his head, "I can't help myself!" ”

Qin Fangyu thought thoughtfully: "I always thought that he was also a loyal monarch, but I didn't expect to be exposed as the person of the fifth prince, but now he is leaning on the prince's side, and the prince is afraid that he will not dare to reuse such behavior." ”

"Well, you're right." Lord Qin nodded, "The Fifth Prince wants to take revenge, and the Prince wants him to be a pathfinding stone...... Hehe. ”

Lord Qin sneered twice: "It's only him, who is still in the dark, thinking that he has got a big opportunity." ”

"Daddy, should we ......?"

"Nope." Lord Qin waved his hand, "We don't want to do anything, just take this opportunity to see the emperor's thoughts." ”

"Dad means that the emperor knows that Lord Gu is the crown prince?" A trace of doubt crossed Qin Fangyu's eyes.

Hearing this, Lord Qin smiled: "You know everything, do you think the emperor is a fool?" ”

"Lord Gu knew that he was from the side of the Fifth Prince before, and he was pointed out again, he was afraid that the prince would have ideas, so he tried his best to please the prince, so that it was too obvious."

Saying that, Lord Qin sighed: "Okay, this matter has nothing to do with us, you remind the third prince that at this time, don't do anything." ”

"Yes, Dad."

At the same time, in the box of the century-old restaurant, Gu Nuannuan looked at Su Yuyi, Su Yuming and Su Yuyi with a smile.

"I know that my brothers will show me the account book today, so I just set it in the restaurant, and the brothers want to invite me to eat when they make money, right?"

"By the way, did the brothers make a lot of money? I don't care, I have to pack and take one with me after eating! ”

Hearing this, Su Yuyi's expressionless face had a trace of sadness, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he coughed dryly.

Su Yuming had a shallow smile on his face, and quietly gave Su Yuming a look.

Su Yuchao looked at Gu Nuannuan's appearance and rubbed his heart: "Sister, this meal must be for you!" Let's eat first and then look at the ledger? ”

"Okay!" Gu Nuannuan couldn't ask for it, so she quickly called Xiao Er and quickly reported the name of the dish.

Seeing Su Yuchao's distress: "Nuan Nuan, can you eat it?" ”

"Nuan Nuan, I think we should cherish food, don't we? It's not good if it's wasted. ”

"Nuan Nuan, I think it's enough......"

However, Gu Nuannuan didn't raise her head: "When did you see me wasting food?" ”

"If you can't eat it, just pack it and take it home."

"It's not enough, let me ...... more"

"That's it!" Su Yuchao quickly snatched the menu and threw it directly to Xiao Er, "That's all, go for it!" ”

Xiao Er glanced at Gu Nuannuan suspiciously, and when he saw Gu Nuannuan nodding, he left.

At this time, the three brothers of the Su family were making eye contact.

Su Yuchao's face was full of pain: "I don't care, the three of us will share this meal equally!" ”

"What you promise, you can solve it yourself." Su Yuyi looked away.

Su Yuming raised his eyebrows: "There is no silver." ”

Su Yuchao's eyes fell on the waists of the two: "I believe in your ghosts, do you think I didn't see the silver on your waist?" ”

However, Su Yuyi and Su Yuming bowed their heads and drank tea.

Well, the tea is so delicious.

Gu Nuannuan quietly took in the expressions of the three of them, and then stretched out his hand and quickly flipped through the account book.

Su Yuchao's heart was mentioned, and he just wanted to say something, but he saw that Gu Nuannuan turned quickly, so he breathed a sigh of relief: "Nuan Nuan, let's eat and see." ”

Gu Nuannuan smiled and said, "It's okay, while waiting for the food to come up, I'll take a look casually." ”

After turning over the two ledgers, Gu Nuannuan was full of black lines, looked at the three brothers of the Su family, and supported his chin with one hand: "The three brothers have lost a lot!" ”

The hearts of the three brothers of the Su family were suddenly raised, and before they could speak, they heard Gu Nuannuan continue.

"In the past month, only three transactions have been completed, and the transaction amount is less than 3,000 gold. Every time the poor people came to sell something, the price given by the seventh brother was three times higher than this price, such as the bracelet on the sixth day, the jade pendant on the eighteenth day, and the ......"

"None of the paintings, paintings, and carpentry have been sold for a month. On the first day, the fifth brother took his friends into the shop, and at the suggestion of the fifth brother, the store gave six zhe, and on the fifteenth, the sixth brother took his friends and signaled the shopkeeper to give a three-fold ......"

As Gu Nuannuan's lips closed one by one, the three of them were stunned.

Obviously, it was still a delicate and soft voice, but it made their hearts lift.

They didn't expect it, they just flipped through it casually, and all the content recorded in it was seen by Gu Nuannuan.

After the dishes were served, Gu Nuannuan said while eating, and it took more than half an hour for Gu Nuannuan to stop.

And the three brothers of the Su family were already tasteless, so they simply put down their chopsticks.

Seeing this, Gu Nuannuan still smiled: "I said before that I will choose the shopkeeper in this shop, and the three brothers should not meddle in business matters, just do, draw, and watch." ”

"The three brothers go to the shop almost every day, and they know that the brothers are worried, but the brothers like to give things and like to be good people, in fact, it is true, but we are businessmen in the end."

Gu Nuannuan wiped her mouth, brought the fruit next to her in front of her, took a bite of the fruit, and her voice was still soft: "I don't mean to blame my brother, it's just that my brothers are obviously not suitable for being businessmen." ”

"Just take a look, you are not allowed to meddle in the affairs of the shopkeeper in the future." Gu Nuannuan tilted her head and said pretending to be annoyed.

Gu Nuannuan already knew about the interference of the three brothers of the Su family, but she also knew that it was useless to say it now, and she had to let them know that what they did affected the business of the shop.

So they let the shopkeeper let them continue.

It's just a loss of silver, and she can afford it.

Su Yuyi nodded: "It's our mistake." ”

"That's Nuan, what's good down there? I asked the shopkeeper, and the money was not enough...... Are you going to close the door? Su Yuchao asked in a low voice.

Gu Nuannuan shook her head and took out a sum of silver from her arms: "It's okay, the idle king sponsors!" ”

Looking at the pile of silver, Su Yuchao's eyes lit up.

Su Yuyi frowned: "Idle King? ”

"Why did the idle king get involved?" Su Yuming raised his eyebrows, always feeling that something was wrong inside.

Gu Nuannuan smiled even more happily: "The matter between the idle king and the two uncles, the brothers must also know, I asked Mr. Fang to mention that I was short of money, and the idle king sent it over." ”

Hearing this, the three brothers suddenly realized.

"It seems that Mr. Fang has an extremely important position in the heart of the idle king." Su Yuchao was thoughtful.

Su Yuyi smiled faintly; "After all, it's a lifesaver."

Gu Nuannuan sighed in her heart, what kind of idle king, it's all your own money!

It's just that she didn't expect that Mu Rongyun's money was not much, and there was a large amount of expenditure every month, so that when she took the jade pendant given by Mu Rongyun to the money village today, she found that it was only 157,800 taels.

Tut-tut, poor ghost!

"Ahh Don't worry, Nuan Nuan, next month will definitely be profitable! Su Yuchao looked at Gu Nuannuan with a smile, "Eat, eat, eat, order so much, don't eat and waste!" ”

After finishing the meal, the three brothers sent Gu Nuannuan to the Su Mansion, and then turned around and went back to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

As for Su Minlan, she was picked up by Du Qichao early in the morning.

At this time, Gu Wu and the prince drank a lot of wine in the restaurant before coming back.

I wanted to go and rest for a while, but I saw the butler running over in a hurry.

Seeing Gu Wu's appearance, he stopped talking.

Gu Wu was still in excitement, and when he saw the housekeeper, he said with a smile: "What's the matter?" ”

The housekeeper lowered his head and whispered, "Master, the murderer has been found, and it is in the old lady's yard." ”

"Oh?" Gu Wu's heart sank suddenly, "! Where is the murderer? Let's go, I want to see who is so bold as to do something to the old lady! ”

With that, Gu Wu ran directly towards Old Lady Gu's courtyard.

Shangfeng, who got the news, said a few words in Daisy's ear, and Daisy nodded, with a helpless look on his face: "The master is back, everything is up to the master." ”

Die'er on the side said: "This person's evidence and physical evidence are all there, even if the master comes back, it won't change anything." ”

"But also, such a big thing must be convicted only when the master comes back."

As she spoke, Die'er leaned back in her chair.

Gu Wu quickly entered Mrs. Gu's room, and was stunned for a moment: "Mother?" ”

Daisy and the others quickly stood up, and after greeting Gu Wu, they said slowly: "Master, my mother is a little bad, do you want to go and see it first?" ”

Gu Wu's brows furrowed, because the joy brought by the promotion had long since disappeared, but he asked in a deep voice, "Didn't you say that you caught the murderer?" What's going on? ”

"This ......" Daisy hesitated for a moment, biting her lip and lowering her head.

Gu Wu glanced at Die'er, and then at Yu Feng'er, and a bad premonition emerged in his heart: "What's the matter?" ”

"Master......" Die'er cried out coquettishly, "Madame is afraid that she won't dare to say it, after all, she was slapped by the murderer just now." ”

"I'm not afraid, after all, this kind of person lives under the same roof as me, maybe I'll be the one who will be poisoned next time!"

Die'er snorted coldly, and then said word by word: "Master, this murderer is Aunt Yu, Yu Feng'er!" ”
