Chapter Ninety-Nine: Fight Again

thought that everything in the British Mansion would be his, and Marquis Ning Yuan had not accumulated much of his family wealth, but he didn't expect the sudden change in the situation. Mobile

He will be in a very awkward situation, and he will miss the best opportunity to accumulate his family.

The world is peaceful, and it is difficult to have the opportunity to lead troops to fight and make a fortune.

The capture of the leading general can leave 30% of it, but now even if there are remnants of the Southern Dynasty to restore the country, the scale is relatively small.

He can't compete with King Murong Ze.

The arrangement on Treasure Island was uprooted by Murong Ze, and Ning Yuanhou had to find another way to make money.

It only refers to the fact that he can't afford to support his wife and daughter.

*****

The guests are overflowing, the hustle and bustle is rich, and there are people with heads and faces in the city of Guangzhou.

More people crowded at the gate of Gu's mansion, looking in awe at the black-armored guards guarding the door of Gu's mansion.

The person who holds the invitation is arrogant and proud, like a proud peacock, enjoying the envy and jealousy of those who can't get in.

After all, the person who can be invited by King Rui is itself an endorsement of his identity.

Of course, the most envied and jealous person is none other than Gu Xi.

Who made King Rui requisition his mansion?

Although in his own mansion, Gu Xi was a little restrained and maintained the mentality of being a guest.

He was not very close to people, and he was not too proud, sitting quietly by the window, looking at the flower hall behind the rockery.

From the open window, the figure of His Royal Highness King Rui can be faintly seen.

King Rui invited guests, but he didn't show his true face at all, just let his entourage pass the word, casually.

He sat in the flower hall by himself, condescending, and could take most of the mansion in his eyes.

Gu Xi sighed secretly, this is the first time he has seen such a way of treating.

Only King Rui Murong Ze can do it.

Gu Xiwan refused King Rui's suggestion, he was a guest today, and he would never help King Rui entertain guests.

After King Zhao arrived, the scene gradually became warmer, and King Zhao helped his nephew to be the master.

He glanced at Gu Xi meaningfully, and said with a smile: "It's not like, it's not like." ”

Gu Xi's unsurprising moon-white robe, with a high crown and a broad belt, is handsome and elegant, and it is still thrillingly handsome, with a unique demeanor.

"This king can leak a message to you in advance, so that you won't be at a loss for a while."

"Don't bother with it."

Gu Xi got up and saluted, his movements were smooth, and his voice was like a clear spring hitting a bluestone, and the noble King Zhao did not enter his clear eyes.

There is a faint rejection and contempt.

King Zhao secretly clenched his fists, and he couldn't see Gu Xi's appearance of being tall and dusty!

But he was helpless.

In the backyard, the Jiang family led Gu Jiayao to sit next to Mrs. Nan'an Hou.

Mrs. Tai hadn't seen Jiang for a few days, and her eldest sister kept screaming, asking carefully what Jiang was busy with?

"Why don't you come to see me?"

"It's mainly a matter of business, and then there's the trivial matter of my mother's family and the Wang family."

Jiang took this opportunity to tell Jiang Qiong and Wang Lin about writing a desperate love letter.

Mrs. Nan'an Hou Tai had the highest status among women, and she nodded, "Why do you keep such a man for him?" It's long overdue to leave him. ”

Jiang said: "Sister Qiong's children have also been brought back, my brother said that as a child of the Jiang family, he will have nothing to do with the Wang family in the future, we are also afraid that the dragon and phoenix fetus will be taught badly by Wang Lin, Wang Lin's character is not good, the child is pitiful, and he can't do without his mother." ”

Gu Jiayao sat upright and said, "Wang Lin offended His Royal Highness King Rui, and the prince has already allowed them to take their mother's surname." ”

Mrs. Nan'an's eyes lit up, and she had the heart to help, but at this time she was even more bold, "You do it right, the child should be surnamed Jiang, and only with you can you become a talent and distinguish between right and wrong." ”

Jiang smiled and nodded, and the wives around him, regardless of whether they agreed with it in their hearts or not, could only nod in agreement with Jiang Qiong and Wang Lin's love, and took away a pair of children.

The corners of Gu Jiayao's mouth raised slightly, but thinking of Shi Ze's aggrieved and lonely appearance when she went out, the corners of her mouth collapsed again.

How should she coax Shi Ze when she goes back?

After all, she broke her promise not to come to King Rui's banquet in the first place.

It's not that she wants to see Murong Ze, but Gu Jiayao has a faint premonition that there will be big changes today.

She always has to face it with her parents.

After crossing over, Gu Jiayao turned on the mind-reading technique, and the woman's intuition became stronger and stronger.

Many female dependents gathered together, seeing that the furnishings of the Gu house were simple and generous, seemingly simple, but if you look closely, each decoration has a history and is extremely valuable.

The tea cups served are also the fine products of the official kiln, and the plain and elegant white porcelain with a light egg white color is fresh and refined, showing the owner's self-cultivation.

The handmaidens who came and went coped with it decently, with light steps, neither humble nor arrogant.

The ladies praised one after another, and Jiang smiled and waved his hand: "This has nothing to do with me, I just lent out the mansion, and all the arrangements are what Miss Zhao said, if you want to praise her, you can praise her." ”

Miss Zhao's cheeks were crimson and her expression was radiant.

Gu Jiayao held the tea cup, Mrs. Nan'an Hou said with a smile: "I just think that Yao Yatou is good, safe and blessed, someone is busy with this, and she has to work as a steward and servant, Yao Yatou is born rich and noble, she is a lady, you don't need to work, you just need to enjoy it." ”

Miss Zhao: "......"

Who is the housekeeper and servant?

Gu Jiayao said modestly: "I just went to the banquet of His Royal Highness King Rui with my parents. ”

"Sisters, why don't we go to the West Flower Hall and enjoy the paintings?"

Miss Zhao took the initiative to walk up to Gu Jiayao, "Mr. Gu is a master of calligraphy and painting, I think you also have a deep knowledge of paintings, why don't you go and see my new collection together." ”

Gu Jiayao said lightly: "Don't go." ”

“……”

Miss Zhao couldn't get off the stage, and someone else helped her, she was a round-faced and delicate lady, "People kindly invited you, and you refused so much, don't you look down on Miss Zhao?" I really think of myself as a master. ”

"This was originally my home, but it was only lent to His Royal Highness King Rui for a banquet today, not to mention when I said that I would be the master today?"

Gu Jiayao had a straight face, "Miss Zhao was not the master here before, and she is not the hostess today. She invited me to see the paintings, why couldn't I refuse? Who am she? I don't like it, can she still force me? ”

"Or is it that she has long regarded herself as a person of His Royal Highness King Rui."

"I remember that the prince didn't marry the main concubine, nor did he accept the side concubine, if the concubine had a room......

Gu Jiayao paused for a moment, "I am not qualified to come forward to welcome guests, and I am not worthy of sitting side by side with us." ”

The ladies got up and sat down again. Miss Zhao's face was flushed, but there were still a few good ones, or a few ladies who were counting on Miss Zhao to make money, said: "I am willing to enjoy the paintings." ”

Miss Zhao's eyes flashed with bitter hatred, and she went out with a few ladies. After a while, a faint exclamation came, "His Royal Highness King Rui." ”

The ladies got up together, Gu Jiayao was also dragged out of the door, and Miss Zhao looked back at Gu Jiayao, and the corners of her mouth curled.
