Chapter 56: Xiao Yao's Old Story

Gu Fanghua came over, picked up a grape and tasted one, and said curiously: "Big brother, when the great Zhou talents gathered in the capital in the autumn, why did grandfather go to Jiangnan at this time?" ”

Gu Shiqing smiled and didn't answer, but Gu left and right said to him: "You two and Zibin go to Tangshan, it's better to let Shinian go too." ”

"Good! Anyway, my grandfather didn't want my second brother to participate in Qiuqiu, if Xiao Yao hadn't had to take the exam, I would have wanted to kidnap him too. ”

Gu Fanghua didn't ask any more questions, it seems that his grandfather went to Jiangnan, so he naturally had his reasons. I heard that one of my grandfather's friends in the same department was seriously ill, maybe he went to visit his deceased.

Zhong Taojiao also sat down, grabbed a few grapes and stuffed them into her mouth, snapped her fingers and calculated: "We set off on the tenth day of the new year and come back on the eighteenth. ”

Gu Shiqing looked at Zhong Taojiao and shook his head: "Jiaojiao, Qiu Fu is a big deal, who doesn't study hard before the exam, who will go out to play?" ”

"Big brother, I think that people like Third Brother Xiao are nine out of ten. Relying on the usual accumulation, if they are all temporary, where is the name of Xiao Yao in Liaodong? ”

Gu Fanghua is still very confident in Xiao Yao, he was able to win the champion in the previous life, and there is no problem this time.

Qin Guogong smiled: "Mingzhu, you can ask, if Xiao Yao is willing to go, it's okay." But when you go to Tangshan and pass by Wan'an Temple, remember to go and see your uncle. ”

Gu Fanghua put down the small silver fork in her hand, wiped the watermelon juice at the corner of her mouth with a handkerchief, and then said, "Cousin, I know that my grandmother has prepared things and asked me to go to Wan'an Temple to meet my uncle." ”

Mrs. Zhong hurriedly said, "We have also prepared something, and you will bring it with you when the time comes." ”

Zhong Zibin touched his head and hesitated: "Mother, then I don't need to bring the long knife, please ask my grandfather for guidance?" ”

Zhong Taojiao slowly wiped the juice on her hands, and said to Zhong Zibin: "Big brother, you don't need to bring your long knife, grandfather can beat you down with a stick." ”

"I'm afraid of being young, Jiaojiao, how do you know that I can't beat my grandfather?"

Zhong Zibin was not convinced, although he was often chased and spanked by his grandfather before, but now it is not the same as it used to be. He didn't believe that he couldn't beat his grandfather.

Gu Fanghua ate the melon and looked at Zhong Zibin and Zhong Taojiao with a smile.

Tangshan must go, and the people there, she must win them over. Yan Shaoxun has already trapped himself in the palace, in this life, he doesn't want to think!

Thinking of the previous life, it was Yan Shaoxun who accompanied her to Tangshan.

It was precisely because Yan Shaoxun saved him that he would do his best to help Yan Shaoxun. I heard that he later became the youngest prime minister in the history of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and he was the sharpest knife in Yan Shaoxun's hand, and he must no longer let Yan Shaoxun buy people's hearts and get his help.

If necessary, even if you kill him, you will not hesitate!

Gu Fanghua thought about it, a little distracted, Zhong Taojiao poked her hand, and said curiously: "Mingzhu, what do you want?" ”

This voice brought Gu Fanghua back to her senses, and she took a handkerchief to wipe her mouth and hands as if she had nothing to do, and then replied: "It's okay, it's so funny, I'm thinking about how to kidnap Third Brother Xiao out." ”

Speaking of Xiao Yao, Zhong Taojiao became even more curious, and muttered: "The Marquis of Weiyuan's Mansion has a mansion in the capital, but Third Brother Xiao would rather live in the marrying house of the Lord of Fuling County than return to the Marquis of Weiyuan's mansion. ”

Mrs. Zhong obviously knew what was going on, and sighed: "He is also a pitiful, upright eldest son, but there is no place for him in the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion. ”

Gu Fanghua's eyes flashed, and she pretended to be casual and said, "Cousin, it shouldn't be possible, right?" The Lord of Fuling, who is still a grandmother, how can Xiao Yao have no place to stay? ”

Mrs. Zhong saw that Gu Fanghua was interested in Xiao Yao's affairs, thinking that she had something to think about Xiao Yao, so she was busy telling what she knew.

"Mingzhu, I heard that Mrs. Weiyuan Hou was seriously ill when she gave birth to Xiao Yao, but Xiao Yao was brought up by his grandmother, Lord Fuling. If there is no Lord Fuling, I don't know if Xiao Yao can grow up. ”

Gu Fanghua was surprised: "Speaking of which, isn't that concubine of Marquis Weiyuan very powerful?" ”

Mrs. Zhong was speechless, Weiyuan Hou was far away in Liaodong, how could she know, what she knew was just some skin.

What Gu Fanghua didn't expect was that Gu Shiqing gave her the answer to this matter. He smiled: "Mingzhu, that's not a concubine, it's an authentic second room." And she is also a lady of the official family, her father is the cavalry and archery master of Weiyuan Hou, and he is also a member of the Xiao family's army, and he died on the battlefield to save Wei Yuanhou. ”

"So that's the case, no wonder she can cover the sky with one hand, and the child born out of the concubine is twelve years older than Third Brother Xiao."

Before Gu Fanghua could finish sighing, Gu Shiqing continued: "What's more, it is said that Marquis Weiyuan and her are childhood sweethearts, and Mrs. Marquis Weiyuan is just wishful thinking on the part of Lord Fuling. The Weiyuan Marquis Mansion has always been taken care of by this second lady, and even the Lord of Fuling can only concede three points. ”

Zhong Taojiao was unhappy and asked: "Brother-in-law, I don't believe you when you say this, how can a concubine be in charge!" When the lord of Fuling is a dead man, can't he be? ”

Gu Shiqing was still very gentle to his sister-in-law, and said with a smile: "Jiaojiao, what is impossible?" There is a Qing guest in the Hou Mansion, and his sister is a steward lady in the Hou Mansion of Weiyuan, and I am still very clear about the Xiao family. ”

Gu Fanghua said seriously: "Big brother, if you know, can you tell us a little more detail?" ”

Gu Shiqing was stunned for a moment, thinking that Gu Fanghua was moved by Xiao Yao, and hurriedly said: "Jiaojiao is interested, Mingzhu are you also interested?" Xiao Yao is good, but the Marquis of Weiyuan Mansion is really troublesome. ”

Gu Fanghua glared at him and said coquettishly: "Big brother, why are you thinking so dirty?" I just want to hear some gossip, can't I? Besides, do you think I might marry Liaodong? ”

"Of course not, it's the eldest brother who wants to be left. Even if Mingzhu falls in love with Xiao Yao, he will stay in the capital as a guest of honor, how can he marry far away. ”

Gu Shiqing hurriedly confessed, seeing that everyone was staring at him, obviously interested in this gossip, busy and confiding.

"The second room of Weiyuan Hou is surnamed Yue, and Wei Yuanhou wanted to marry Miss Yue as his wife, but the lord of Fuling County disagreed. In the end, Miss Yue became pregnant, and the lord of Fuling could only agree to let her enter the door as a concubine. The Marquis of Weiyuan favored the Yue family alone, and originally made up his mind not to marry a wife again, but later the lord of Fuling took a fancy to the girl of the Xie family and forced him to marry him back with death. However, Wei Yuanhou has a deep affection for the Yue family, and Miss Xie has been married for a few years, but he is reluctant to enter her yard. ”

Speaking of this, Gu Shiqing paused, hesitated again and again before he said: "Later, the lord of Fuling County passed his birthday, and the Marquis of Weiyuan and the Xie family were in the round house. The Yue family is a person who can't rub sand in his eyes, so he made a big fuss and turned his face with the lord of Fuling. Because of this incident, it hurt the harmony of their mother and son, and then the Xie family had Xiao Yao. ”

Although Gu Shiqing didn't say it in detail, Gu Fanghua could roughly guess what was going on.
