When Wang Jingyong first learned the news that Gu Tingnan had left Beijing alone and returned to the north, he was stunned for a while.

And then I was amazed—

She's just gone?

It was said that the father would leave the son, but the son was not left...... How can you go directly to the Father!

I think he has been trembling and guarding himself in every possible way recently, just because he is afraid that this woman will kick him away once she succeeds, but what is the situation at the moment?

Say that the gambling house is busy, you have to go back to cook, no matter how busy and urgent, you won't say hello to him!

Although he had no experience in such matters, the answer was obvious......

Dumped.

He was dumped.

When this voice appeared in his heart, Vice General Wang only felt like five thunderbolts were thundering.

Then, he suddenly thought of something, and called the subordinate he had sent to the north to inquire about the situation in Gu Tingnan's house-

Recently, things have been busy, and they are particularly busy, rewards, the general's reinstatement of identity, the reversal of the Shi family, and even the stationing of Lu Longjun outside the city and many other follow-up matters need manpower, those soldiers were transferred to the army after leaving the Ji family that day, and they all did not touch the ground from morning to night, and they did not care about this matter for a while.

It was only at this time that the soldier returned to the palace and was able to inform his lieutenant general of this in detail—

"Gu Niangzi lost her mother at a young age, when she was twelve years old...... Father and brother were imprisoned and executed for homicide...... Since then, Gu Niangzi has no other relatives. ”

A sentence that is not too long made Wang Jingyong stunned for a long time.

"General, as the saying goes, there are people who are punished in the world and don't marry ......" The soldier whispered: "Although Gu Niangzi is good, but in the end ......"

Wang Jingyong frowned and interrupted him: "Okay, go out." ”

The soldier shrunk his neck and quietly looked left and right: "...... General, but this is out there. ”

Wang Jingyong: "...... Get lost. ”

"Yes."

The courtyard was silent, and Wang Jingyong stood in place for a long time, and his brows never stretched.

After a few days, his parents and brothers came to Jingshi-

The so-called parents and brothers, only one father is his closest relative, his mother is his stepmother, and the two younger brothers are born by his stepmother.

In fact, he was not favored at home before, but since his mother left and his father continued to play, he seemed to have become an outsider.

For a long time, he wanted to make contributions to the glory of the lintel, and wanted to prove himself, which was nothing more than subconsciously wanting to be valued by his father, and wanting to be looked down upon by his stepmother and younger brothers, and now he finally got his wish-

But at this moment, Wang Jingyong felt a little strange in a trance, he had not been home for a long time, and those so-called "obsessions" seemed to be a long time ago.

He didn't think much about it.

At this moment, he has an incomparably bright future in front of him.

As for Gu Tingnan-

It's a good thing that she left at this moment, it really saved him a lot of trouble, otherwise wouldn't he still want to think of a way to get rid of her?

Of course, he didn't have a real prejudice about her family affairs, but the rules of the world are here, trouble is trouble, and if you can save trouble, of course it is a good thing, he has never liked trouble-

Exactly.

Don't think about it anymore.

Wang Jingyong made up his mind to expel everything about Gu Tingnan from his mind.

He was busy day after day, as if everything was the same as usual.

The subordinates who had gone to inquire about Gu Tingnan's family before saw it in their eyes, and gradually realized in their hearts that the deputy general had really left Gu Niangzi's affairs behind.

A few months later, on this day, one of them was discussing business with Wang Jingyong when he suddenly asked, "Why did you kill someone?" ”

Soldier: "? ”

Who?

Who killed?

"Her father and brother, why did you kill people back then?" Wang Jingyong asked with a straight face.

The look of confusion lingered on the soldier's face for a long time before he was able to ask tentatively: "What does the general mean......?" Gu Niangzi's father and brother? ”

"Hmm."

Soldier: "......! ”

Alas!

I really can't understand the IQ of not gossiping!

"This ...... According to the inquiries of several subordinates, the person who was killed was a businessman in the leather business, and after the death, the father and brother of the Gu family were taken to the yamen, and confessed on the spot, only saying that it was a business dispute...... Today, people in the vicinity still think the same way. ”

Facing the eyes of his adjutant general, the soldier didn't dare to sell Guan Zi at all, and hurriedly continued: "But after the subordinates dug deeper, they found out that after the Gu family's father and brother confessed, Gu Niangzi, who was nearly twelve years old, went to the government to beat the drum, and said in front of the county order that the merchant wanted to do something wrong to her, so she was accidentally killed by her father and brother——"

Wang Jingyong's brows furrowed even tighter.

But her father and brother insisted that she was talking nonsense, and that she had such a statement in order to exonerate them...... The county magistrate also had a distinction in his heart, but whether it was murder or manslaughter, he could not escape the charge of murder, and the latter was not easy to verify the truth or falsehood, so as to maintain the original charge and verdict. ”

Wang Jingyong's heart sank when he heard this.

So, after her father and brother were executed, how did she, a twelve-year-old girl, survive and get to where she is today?

Unthinkable.

But I had to think about it.

When he thought that the answer in his heart was becoming clear, he went to the general and explained to the general the idea of returning to Yingzhou.

The general didn't ask much, only nodded: "Go ahead." ”

Not "go back", but "go".

And he went.

The fastest horse was chosen, and the road was more hurried than the march.

entered Yingzhou City and went straight to the "Qianjin Gu"——

When Wang Jingyong dismounted outside the gambling house, he saw the woman in the maple red dress in the lobby pulling the ear of a young man: "...... Didn't I say last time that I wasn't allowed to give money to that Lu lame, he didn't even have an egg at home that could be used to hatch chicks, what did he pay back! Could it be that I'm going to cripple his other leg too? ”

It's still so calculating.

The corners of Wang Jingyong's mouth twitched, but a smile appeared on his stubble-covered face.

After more than 100 days, I finally saw her again.

As if sensing that sight, Gu Tingnan in the hall raised his eyes and looked out of the door, and was startled when he saw the person.

After a moment of stunnedness, she walked out quickly.

“…… How is this picture of being exiled for thousands of miles? ”

Wang Jingyong's smile froze on his face: "...... Can you hope for me? ”

I didn't expect the first sentence of the meeting to be this-

"Then why did you return to Yingzhou at this time, isn't it...... What is going on in the Northland? Gu Tingnan asked in a low voice.

“…… Can you hope that the court will order something? ”

Gu Tingnan wanted to ask again, "Then why are you", only to hear him preemptively: "Why don't you say goodbye?" ”

Looking at the person who hadn't been seen for a long time, and even a little bit of a wolf, it was obvious that as soon as she entered the city, she came directly to look for her without taking care of changing her clothes. ”

Wang Jingyong was stunned: "You know? ”

So, the reason why she didn't say goodbye was because-

I had the answer in my head, and I blurted out a sentence in my heart: "I just want to find a few people who can support me in the future!" ”

"Standing up?" Gu Tingnan looked at the tall man with strange eyes.

Wang Jingyong's face changed for a while, and his eyes dodged.

"So, after investigating the affairs of my family and knowing everything about me, what does Vice General Wang think?" Gu Tingnan asked, and immediately replied: "This is also redundant, I haven't said a word for a few months, what else can I think—I heard that Vice Admiral Wang has been very busy discussing with his relatives in the past few months, could it be that he is picking and choosing and retreating to the second?" ”

"I-"

Wang Jingyong opened his mouth, and his tongue seemed to be knotted.

Seeing this, Gu Tingnan turned around and walked towards the gambling house.

Without looking back, he ordered the guys: "Close the door." ”

"Wait!"

Wang Jingyong hurriedly stepped forward, but he was still a step too late, and watched the door of the gambling house be closed in front of him.

"Shopkeeper Gu, we haven't gone out yet......!" The gamblers were yelling inside.

……

Wang Jingyong stood outside the gambling hall for two quarters of an hour, then got on his horse and left.

"Here are six steamed buns."

Sitting in a steamed bun shop, Wang Jingyong buried his head in eating.

Only when the stomach is full can I have the strength to think about things.

His "results" were eye-catching, and just as he was about to stuff the last bun into his mouth, the shopkeeper of the bun shop came over and said in a surprising tone: "It's really Vice General Wang!" ”

Wang Jingyong glanced up at him, and the chewing action did not stop.

Brother Shunshui, who is now in the position of the shopkeeper of the Ganji Bun Shop, raised his hand to salute Wang Jingyong, and then asked with a fluttering eyebrow: "My owner and aunt went to Beijing to congratulate the prince and Ji Niangzi, and they haven't sent a message saying that they want to come back, how did Vice General Wang return to Yingzhou so quickly?" ”

"It turns out that our prince is actually a descendant of the Shi family, and he is really a tiger father without a dog!"

"I heard that Vice General Wang has the merit of escorting and has been named General Yunlu, which is really gratifying!"

"Ji Niangzi...... No, the debate match played by Master Ji in the Chongwen Pavilion was also heard of in Yingzhou, and it was even more sensational among the students in the Fengshan Academy outside the city! ”

"Vice General Wang......"

The troubled Vice Admiral Wang couldn't bear to raise his eyes to look at the noisy man: "Have you married a wife?" ”

"Ah......" Shunshui smiled reservedly: "Not yet, but it's already married." ”

Vice General Wang: "......? ”

Didn't you last year still have a settlement?

How to achieve the rapid development of career and marriage?

Is it reasonable?

Is it polite?

At this time, a young lady walked in, and Shunshui hurriedly greeted her with a smile: "Jia Kite Lady is here!" ”

Wang Jingyong subconsciously looked over, and saw that the woman was followed by an elegant and well-behaved young man, who was extremely handsome.

“……”

He didn't want to ask what the relationship between that young Langjun and Dazhu was with his sister!

After all, the suspense is not very big......

It must be known that the shocking proposals such as "recruiting a handsome man" and "going to the father and leaving the son" collided between them......

Seeing that the young man was so thoughtful that the other men had no way out, Vice General Wang silently looked away.

The world is coming down to such a field......

I always felt that it was very difficult to win back that woman's heart.

But Vice General Wang, who has thought through all the way, will not give up easily.
