Chapter 14: Something Happened on Changxi Street

In this secret letter, there was only a blank piece of paper with two bright red names written on it.

Li Chenghuan, Song Yuxi.

So the next target to be assassinated is Song Yuxi?

So the question is, who is Song Yuxi?

Li Chenghuan had an answer to this question early the next morning.

Li Chengle took a melon seed and knocked it off, sat under the window and said, "Hey, have you heard, there is a big incident on Changxi Street today!" ”

"Huh?" Li Chenghuan had just had breakfast, took a tea cup and rinsed his mouth, and looked at him with his cheeks puffed out when he heard the words.

"The son of a dignified family actually beat his wife!"

"Huh??"

"Yikes! It's the third son of the Gu family! This matter has already made the Imperial Doctor impeached to the emperor! ”

Li Chenghuan continued to gurgle and rinse his mouth with a sip of tea.

"This case was handled by my brother. Originally, it wasn't a big deal, and it was a person from the Gu family, and Yu Shitai was discussing how to solve it decently. You know what? The saint just heard the name of Mrs. Gu San and said, 'Song Yuxi? Send a jade seal? What a name. Take a look at the testimony. 'That's ...... to see"

Before he finished speaking, Li Chenghuan took a sip of tea and sprayed it on his face: "What did you say?" What's her name?? ”

"You ......" Li Chengle wiped the tea on his face, "You, you, you, why are you like this!" ”

Li Chenghuan held his hands down with a serious expression: "You go on." ”

Being given tea early in the morning, Li Chengle was indignant in his heart, but this did not affect his interest in continuing to gossip: "The Gu family has three brothers, the eldest son Gu Meitai, the second son Gu Lanting, and the third son Gu Zhuxuan. This Gu Zhuxuan is not Gu Taishi's biological son, but the concubine of his deceased brother. ”

Because this Gu Zhuxuan is a concubine, his education and connections are far inferior to his brother. His own qualifications are also very limited, although he works very hard, but Gu Meitai and Gu Lanting are both titled on the gold list, and Gu Zhuxuan is naturally very mediocre under the aura of the two brothers. And after Gu Meitai became the princess of Yiyang, Gu Zhuxuan was also arranged by his parents to marry the daughter of a merchant family.

Originally, as a concubine, with the daughter of a merchant family, he did not suffer a loss. However, probably because of his lack of self-confidence, Gu Zhuxuan always felt that this was a shame, and this woman named Song Yuxi, whose older husband was five years old, although her appearance was mediocre, she was extremely rare and gentle, and she was deeply loved by the Gu family.

If people cannot break free from the shackles of fate, they are prone to anger towards those closest to them.

So this Gu Zhuxuan didn't want to see the lady who was marrying the Ming media in every possible way, and the Gu family's family rules were extremely strict, and if the woman's virtue was not at a loss, she was not allowed to take a concubine. Over time, Gu Zhuxuan's heart became more and more violent, and the relationship between husband and wife became more and more cold as frost.

In the morning, the husband and wife took the same car, Song Yuxi didn't know why she angered her husband, this Gu Zhuxuan was angry, and kicked his wife out of the car, and scolded angrily: "Look at your old face, you dare to call yourself Mrs. Niangzi in front of me?" ”

Song Yuxi crouched on the street in a hurry, covering his face and not daring to look up. The crowd around was full of pointing and pointing, and when the sister-in-law Zhang of the street noodle restaurant couldn't stand it anymore, she helped her up and sighed: "Poor child, if your father and mother didn't leave suddenly, how could they delay getting married at this age!" ”

Li Chengle thought deeply: "I knew that I should recruit a son-in-law, and I guarded a few shops, so I wouldn't suffer this crime!" Alas, what a fate! ”

Li Chenghuan was dressed and wearing a sword, and Li Chengle looked at her with melon seeds: "Aren't you taking turns off today?" Where to go? ”

"Gu Mansion."

"Hey, this case is closed! What are you still doing? ”

"Go find Gu Lanting to catch up."

“…… Don't go over the wall again! The people of our embroidery department want to save face! ”

"Don't worry."

Dropping this sentence, Li Chenghuan hurriedly left the embroidery division.

After the scene at the apprenticeship banquet, the little housekeeper of the Gu Mansion was very impressed by her, so as soon as he saw her appear, he was very enthusiastic to inform the news: Xinyang Jun was invited by His Royal Highness King Yong to enjoy the flowers in the suburbs.

If you want to find out what Song Yuxi has to do with you, you have to go to the Gu Mansion. If you want to enter the Gu Mansion, you still have to go through Gu Lanting.

Li Chenghuan turned his horse's head and headed towards the suburbs.

When passing by Changxi Street, I deliberately learned about Song Yuxi's identity.

Song Yuxi, twenty-three years old. His father was a cloth merchant. He moved from Jinling to Chang'an ten years ago, and then his father died of illness and married Gu Zhuxuan.

Very clean and fine, nothing suspicious. There is nothing related to Li Chenghuan's life experience.

The only similarity is the death of both parents.

For a moment, Li Chenghuan even wondered, is it that some Jianghu organization deliberately picked on orphans?

However, the next moment it was denied. Because her eldest brother, Xie Jinghong, is also an orphan!

Spring is just right, and the peach blossoms are scorching. There is an elegant sound of the piano coming from the mountain pavilion, accompanied by the faint fragrance of peach blossoms in the air, which is refreshing.

Yang Shuzheng took the tea set and poured tea, although Gu Lanting's gentleness made him relax a lot, but the restraint in his bones was not completely eliminated, he cautiously glanced at the teacher who was sitting on the piano, and did not dare to open his mouth to interrupt the teacher's Yaxing.

Gu Lanting was not unaware of this student's apprehension, but he only nodded slightly, and the fingers that stroked the strings did not stop.

The sound of the piano is like water, and the gentleman is like jade.

As a prince who has no achievements, Yang Shu is even more ashamed of himself sitting opposite him. However, this teacher is still the new champion of the title of the gold list, which is really admirable.

He was worshipping the teacher with his hand on his forehead, who expected that Gu Lanting's song was over, and asked, "In addition to Keju, does His Highness have any other hobbies?" ”

Yang Shu really couldn't think of it. His biological mother died early, and he was not cultivated as a prince since he was a child, and he didn't have any of these seemingly elegant and meticulous hobbies. After thinking about it for a long time, he tentatively said, "Does digging a bird's nest count?" ”

Gu Lanting paused and said, "Count." ”

So, King Yong, who had always been restrained, jumped up: "Then, teacher...... Shall we dig the bird's nest? On the way up the mountain, I saw several nests of small sparrows! ”

“……”

"Teacher?"

Gu Lanting said: "Okay." ”

Yang Shu was stunned.

He had been rejected by seventeen teachers, each of whom was an important scholar in the court, and each of whom had read poetry and books for his merits, and they taught him many great principles of governing the country and the people every day, but each time he could see his own failure in their disappointed eyes.

Gu Lanting glanced at the student's reaction: "Your Highness has changed your mind?" ”

"Nope!" Yang Shu came back to his senses and rubbed his hands happily. I thought that this eighteenth teacher was a bit special.
