Chapter V: Blockade (1st Update)
Beijing, the old house of the Gu family.
Since Old Man Gu fell ill that day, he has been sick for nearly a month, and he has gradually improved recently.
During this period, Gu Qingyan did not send a letter to his family.
In this month, in the first half of the month, Old Man Gu had to scold Gu Qingyan every day, and in the second half of the month, he began to be a little nervous, "After the stinky boy went to Nanyang, he wouldn't think Nanyang was very good, and he wouldn't come back, right?" ”
Old Madam Gu comforted him, "Huai'an is a good boy, we grew up watching him from a young age, he won't ignore his family." ”
"Cui Zhuo or Lao Cui grew up and taught him? What is happening now? Didn't you grow up and your wings hardened? The heir of the Cui family didn't do it, and went to Nanyang to join the army? ”
Old Madam Gu: "......"
She choked for a moment, and after a moment, she thought, "Huai'an can't do it, right?" ”
"Why not? Didn't you see that his heart was tied to the little girl of the An family? For her, he has never done anything out of the ordinary, and now he has done it, his reputation for being gentle and courteous for many years has been abolished, since the day of the palace banquet, he has done it to the Praetorian Guards for the sake of the little girl of the An family, after the news came out, how many people were shocked, and there were countless sighs. ”
Old Madam Gu naturally heard the words outside, but still said, "You should believe your grandson, since Huai'an promised you, he never said anything in his mouth, you don't need to worry." ”
"Aren't you worried?"
Old Madam Gu: "......"
She was naturally worried, but what was the use of worrying?
"This kid has been precocious since he was a child, since he was a teenager, you actually can't control him, what he does secretly, he can hide it from you a long time ago, not to mention that now that he is an adult, he knows what he should do and what he should not do."
"Yes, hey, but I'm still very panicked." Old man Gu said, "He didn't like restraint very much since he was a child, and it wasn't that I had to force him to keep him to inherit the family business, it was really our Gu family's great business and big foundation, the Gu family has many children and grandchildren, and there are indeed many capable people, but no one is Huai'an, as long as it's him, the Gu family is old and small, he says a word, sneezes, everyone in the Gu family will listen, and it has been convincing since he was a child. ”
"Huai'an understands." Old Madam Gu could only say, "For the sake of the family business, I really don't know what to say about this child." ”
"I regret it a little, I shouldn't have asked Your Majesty to make a marriage contract between Huai'an and Nanyang Palace. If it weren't for this, he wouldn't be entangled with the little girl of the An family, and this heart wouldn't be planted in and pulled out now. ”
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Old Madam Gu glared at Old Man Gu, "Xiao An'er's child is also a hard-working child, with good character and good appearance, which is poetry and book etiquette, look at the day she came to our house as a guest, where is it worse than the girls in our family?" Not only is it not bad, but it is also much better than the girls in our family who have seen the world and have the ability. Such a good girl, apart from Anjia, where do you find it? ”
"I didn't say that the little girl in the An family was bad, I just said that if it weren't for this marriage contract, these two children would not have had anything to do with each other, and it wouldn't be as difficult as it is now." Old Man Gu sighed, "The two children are good children, but, on the contrary, one is the heir of the Gu family, shouldering heavy responsibilities, and the other is the only bloodline of the An family, who has grown up in the Nanyang Army since he was a child and has ambitions. Such two people, one can't leave the Gu family, the other doesn't want to leave the An family, and now His Majesty has canceled their marriage contract in a rage, you say, how difficult should they be to go forward? ”
Let Gu Qingyan let go of the Gu family, then, Old Man Gu is unwilling to give up such a good heir, in his opinion, who else can the Gu family give up? Let An Huajin put it down, his old face is ashamed when he says it, the An family is righteous, noble, and has the people in mind, guarding the border, guarding the national defense of Dachu, and letting tens of millions of people in the mainland live and work in peace and contentment, even if An Huajin is a daughter's family, but he will not change the ambition of his ancestors and brothers, so he has the world in mind, how can she be humiliated?
"Your Majesty is a trivial matter, once a son of heaven and a courtier." Old Madam Cui lowered her voice, "The point is, what you said is indeed a difficult thing. ”
"Don't say that again." Old Man Gu's heart tightened, "Your Majesty is still in its prime. ”
Old Madam Gu also felt that this was inappropriate and shut up.
"He's been gone for so long, and there's not a letter. I really have a daughter-in-law and forget home. "Old Man Gu is most uneasy precisely because he hasn't received Gu Qingyan's letter for so long, so he is afraid of Xinzhi and doesn't want to come back.
"Wait, if you really can't rest assured, just write a letter and let someone send it to Nanyang to him."
"No!" Old Man Gu became stubborn, "Bastard, I'll wait for when he will write a letter home." ”
Old Madam Gu shook her head helplessly.
Old man Gu waited, and waited for nearly half a month, and did not wait for Gu Qingyan's letter, but heard that His Majesty sent someone to Nanyang, the old Nanyang King was busy with military affairs, and had been staying in the army, and the father-in-law who passed the decree had been waiting, and waited for ten days, and the old Nanyang King had time to see, after seeing the father-in-law who passed the decree, it is said that the old Nanyang King did not delay at all, and immediately received the holy decree and immediately set off to Beijing to meet His Majesty.
Old man Gu heard that the old king of Nanyang had set off, and at this time he could already see the wind wandering in the courtyard, and when he heard this, his beard curled, and asked the person who reported the news next to him, "What about that stinky boy?" Can he come back together? ”
The person who reported the news shook his head, "I haven't heard of the news of the son, since the son went to Nanyang City, our people are not allowed to go to the capital to spread the news, so not only His Majesty and the people in the capital have no news of the son, but even our people have no news of the son." ”
"Bastard, he's really capable. I don't have my grandfather in my heart. It's really a grandson who doesn't teach. Although the old man Gu scolded twice a day, he didn't get really angry, this time it has been a month since he heard it, and the old Nanyang King has set off for Beijing, and there is no news from Gu Qingyan, and he hasn't returned a letter, so he is really a little angry.
The person who reported the news lowered his head, "Gongzi must have considerations, after all, His Majesty has been staring at our mansion." ”
Old Man Gu was silent for a moment, and his anger disappeared a little.
Yes, since Gu Qingyan took An Huajin in the palace and never showed up again, His Majesty couldn't catch An Huajin for a few days and began to stare at him and stare at the Gu family, and now it has been a month, if Gu Qingyan passes a few words back, if Wang An knows that bastard kid to help His Majesty, His Majesty may really be able to get news of him.
He can hide it from His Majesty, but he can't hide it from Wang Anzhi's bastard boy, Gu Qingyan didn't pass on the news, and intercepted the news from Nanyang City back to the capital, obviously, it was Wang Anzhi who was guarded against.
"Hey, that kid of the Wang family, I don't know what kind of daughter-in-law I will marry in the future to manage him, it's becoming more and more evil." Old Man Gu said, "What I said to him last time, he obviously didn't listen to it at all. ”
The messenger who reported the news, "It is said that the people of the sixth prince of Wang also went to Nanyang. ”
"That's it, they're young, my old man is old, let them be." Old Man Gu waved his hand.
In this month, Old Man Gu waited for Gu Qingyan's news in a hurry, and His Majesty the Emperor in the palace wanted to know Gu Qingyan's news, wanted to know An Huajin's news, and wanted to know the news of Nanyang City, but he couldn't get any news, and he was angry and angry several times.
He could only send someone to stare at Old Man Gu, hoping to get news of Gu Qingyan from it, but he let people stare at him for a month, and he was helpless to take Old Man Gu, you said that he was pretending to be sick, he was indeed sick, you said that he was not pretending to be sick, but he was sick at the right time, and he was not well in a month, he couldn't even get out of bed, and the Natural Palace also improved.
In the past month, he has also seen through it, except to rely on Wang Anzhi, he really has no other way.
And Wang Anzhi has no news about Gu Qingyan, not even the entire Nanyang City, not even the slightest bit of news, which makes Wang Anzhi, who was waiting to intercept Gu Qingyan's news, laugh angrily, and said to Feng Ming, the close-up secret guard beside him, "My seventh cousin, don't you want to go back to the capital?" ”
Feng Ming asked, "Childe, why don't you go to Nanyang in person?" ”
Wang Anzhi waved his hand and shook his head teasing the bird, "That's it, I don't believe that he won't return to the capital." The king of Nanyang has set off to Beijing, can An Huajin rest assured that the old man will come to Beijing by himself at such a young age? What should I do if I am not sure? My seventh cousin, do you want to come back and take care of it? After all, the An family is in the capital, and there is no longer any foundation. ”
Originally, there was a foundation, but because of him, he eradicated half of the dark piles, and the rest were wisely removed by An Huajin.
In this way, he really couldn't break into the impregnable Nanyang City.
Wang Anzhi laughed, "I also admire the king of Nanyang, and I dared to come to Beijing, and it was indeed the king of Nanyang." ”
