Chapter 23: Gentlemen

"Maybe I'm afraid of trouble."

Coral didn't dare to answer, so she had to answer casually.

Gu Wushuang glanced at her when he heard this, and then turned around and went straight to Yilan Courtyard.

"The maid arranged the wing room on the east side for the little master to live in, but these little maids ......"

Yilan Courtyard, when Gu Wushuang came back, the amber had already been almost settled.

Except for the little guy who came along.

It is said that these little guys are going to live in the front yard with Xu Mengxian, but now Xu Mengxian is still young, and he can only follow Gu Wushuang for the time being, and the number of these little guys is too much.

"You all follow the little master?" Gu Wushuang frowned secretly, didn't he say that Xu Chengzhi and even the entire Eastern Courtyard didn't care about this kid?

"Yes." The little guy who took the lead took a step forward and said, "There are not so many people, it's just the master...... The second master was a little relieved, so he specially assigned some more people to come over. ”

"Since the second uncle sent you, then move them all to the front yard." Gu Wushuang thought for a moment and said, "In the future, these people will be in your hands, what's your name?" ”

"Mrs. Hui, the little one is called rich." The little guy at the head was overjoyed when he heard this, and he couldn't help but bow down to Gu Wushuang immediately.

"Rich ...... Okay, I remember you, lead them to the front yard to find Lao Chen to settle down. ”

After saying that, Gu Wushuang waved his hand directly and went back to the room directly.

Coral followed the door, but was stopped by Coral just after stepping over the threshold: "You don't need to serve here, you can go down." ”

"Yes." Coral was stunned, then gritted his teeth and retreated.

Gu Wushuang saw it in his eyes, but he didn't pay much attention to it, just poured a cup of hot tea and said: "Ask Lao Chen to go to the east courtyard to inquire about what is going on, and go and see how the nurse is, and by the way, ask her about the little master's eating habits or something." ”

"Okay, the maid will arrange it later." Amber answered, and went straight to fetch water.

Later, after Gu Wushuang finished freshening up, Amber spoke again, and hesitated: "Coral acts recklessly, and he is strong everywhere, madam...... Do you really want to use her? ”

"To be strong?"

"Hmm." Amber nodded, as if she had let go, and said straightforwardly: "Since Mrs. Beat mentioned her example, the maid has seen her bullying her subordinates several times with her identity. ”

"Is that really the case?" Gu Wushuang was a little surprised when he heard this: "I look at her very well-behaved." ”

It's not that he's completely well-behaved.,It's a little clever by nature.。

"If the lady doesn't believe it, she can directly summon her for questioning, and see if the maid has framed her."

"No, it's not a big deal." Gu Wushuang didn't care much, only raised his eyes to catch a glimpse of Amber's expression, and couldn't help but add another sentence: "Okay, I know, you go down and arrange it first." ”

With that, Gu Wushuang got up directly and entered the inner room.

……

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, it is the golden autumn season.

And Gu Tingcheng's punishment has finally been decided.

Today's benevolence and filial piety, when the Queen Mother was in the autumn, gave amnesty to the world, and added a number of old ministers as a guarantee, so Gu Qingcheng was finally saved from death and exiled.

And the Queen Mother was merciful and allowed her to give birth to an heir first, and the place of detention was also moved from the Imperial Prison to Dali Temple.

Dali Siqing had received the favor of King Yu in his early years, so he secretly took care of Gu Qingcheng with two more points, not only arranged the best prison room, but even arranged a doctor to see her regularly.

And Gu Hening also went to Songshan Academy as he wished, although he was only an auditor, but in the end it was a wish.

It seems that everything is developing in a good direction, except for Xu Ge Lao.

Not only did his body become thinner and thinner, but he even fainted and lost consciousness for a while.

And just two days ago, after Xu Ge Lao fainted again, he had less and less time to be awake.

Ning also cried because of this, and he washed his face with tears all day long, and even took his body with him.

"It's too doctor, why hasn't anyone come for so long?"

On this day, Xu Ge Lao lost consciousness after coughing up blood again, and the whole person was also dyed with ashes, Ning was shocked, and even if he softened his body.

The whole mansion was in a mess, and even Gu Wushuang couldn't cope with it.

"I sent someone to invite several times, saying that Concubine Chen in the palace was sick, and everyone on duty now was called to Concubine Chen's palace......"

"What about Imperial Doctor Jiang, isn't he not worthy of duty today, why didn't you send someone to invite him?" Gu Wushuang's face sank when he heard this: "There are also doctors commonly used in the house, but there is no one in sight, what are you doing!" ”

"The young lady is angry, Imperial Doctor Jiang is out of the city, and he is not in the house now, as for the doctors commonly used in the house......"

"It's coming, it's coming, Dr. Jiang is here!"

Lao Chen was about to explain, but there was a sudden commotion outside, and Dr. Jiang, who was commonly used in the house, had finally arrived.

Gu Wushuang also saw Doctor Jiang's figure, and couldn't help but hurriedly greet him: "Doctor Jiang, Elder Ge has fainted again, please go and take a look." ”

Saying that, Gu Wushuang greeted Doctor Jiang into the main room, but when he passed by Lao Chen, he still suppressed his voice and ordered: "Send someone out of the city immediately to find Imperial Doctor Jiang and come back!" ”

Lao Chen understood, and immediately turned around and nodded to the little guy on the side.

"Young lady, if it is ......"

After a pause, Lao Chen hesitated for a long time, but finally followed into the main room.

It's just that he didn't really enter the inner room, and he stopped in front of Gu Wushuang.

"You can get ready in private first." Gu Wushuang knew what Lao Chen meant, and couldn't help but sigh secretly, and said, "But be careful, don't let Madame know, and try to avoid Aunt Cui." ”

As he spoke, Gu Wushuang seemed to suddenly remember, and said, "What about the second young master, why haven't you seen him show up in the past few days?" ”

"This ......" Lao Chen was a little embarrassed, and even didn't dare to look directly into Gu Wushuang's eyes.

"What? Something went wrong? Seeing this, Gu Wushuang subconsciously frowned.

Lao Chen saw it in his eyes, and couldn't help but become more and more afraid to face it: "The second young master is not in the house......"

"What the hell is going on!"

"Some time ago, the second young master met a group of powerful people, and after that, he often played with them, and he basically didn't go back to the house much at other times except for taking silver on weekdays."

Lao Chen gritted his teeth, and finally told everything he knew: "Aunt Cui also knows about this matter, but Aunt Cui said that there are many things in the house, so she stopped us from telling us to report it." ”

"Speaking of which, the young lady is in charge of the feed, and this matter is also known to you by the newspaper, this month alone, the second young master has already paid almost two thousand taels of silver from the account!"

"What!" Gu Wushuang was shocked when he heard this, the monthly expenses of the entire Guogong Mansion were only a few hundred silver, and now it was only the middle of the month, and Xu Kangan had already paid two thousand taels of silver?

"Who gave him this right, and there is no one in the account room to report such a big thing?"

"It was Aunt Cui who agreed, as for the account room...... Lao Chen sighed secretly: "In the end, it is the young master of the house, and there is Aunt Cui behind her, so the account room doesn't dare to really offend too much, as for the report...... The accounts are all registered and recorded. ”

In other words, in fact, it is not that there is no report on the account room, but Gu Wushuang himself has been too busy recently, so he has not noticed it.
