Chapter 23: Stealing Beams and Changing Pillars

Seeing that the oxcart didn't even have a place to sit, and everything was unkempt and full of weeds, Shunzi and Hu Lu were a little dumbfounded.

"Childe, this is too sloppy, otherwise, I'd better rent a new carriage."

As soon as Shunzi's words fell, Zhao Yu took the lead in sitting up.

Junzi and Hu Lu were like petrified, and they were stunned in place.

"There is no need to be so troublesome, only by taking an ox cart can we reflect our affinity, otherwise there will be people who will look sideways when we go to the countryside."

Hearing Zhao Yu's explanation, Shunzi and Hu Lu also got into the ox cart with twitching corners of their mouths.

Squeak.

Squeak.

The road in this alley was not smooth, and the ox carts made a loud noise.

"Childe, this oxcart won't break down halfway, will it?"

When Zhao Yu heard Shunzi's words, he couldn't help but glance at him suspiciously.

"Probably not."

Hu Lu instantly felt like he was on a thief ship.

until they came to a small village on the outskirts of the city.

Most of the people in the village had gone to the field at this point in time, and Zhao Yu took the two people behind him to find a courtyard along the address given by Gu Baige.

This courtyard was very dilapidated, which made Zhao Yu a little suspicious for a while.

Anyway, she is also a biological daughter, so she will not come to this kind of place to suffer.

Knock knock.

Junko was very discerning and went up and knocked on the door.

But I waited a long time and didn't wait for anyone to open the door.

At this time, a passing lady grabbed Junzi.

"What are you looking for this family, this family is unlucky, everyone died some time ago, leaving only one daughter."

Hearing this aunt's words, Zhao Yu sighed in his heart, he wouldn't be so unlucky.

"Auntie, where is the daughter who was left behind?"

When the lady heard Zhao Yu's question, she was also stunned.

"What are you looking for that kid, that kid is a disaster."

Zhao Yu's brows furrowed deeper and deeper, and the eldest lady sighed.

"The children of this family still live here, and I don't know what she does when she goes out during the day."

Junzi and Hu Lu glanced at each other, and they both felt that this matter was strange.

At this time, the three of them heard some movement in the distance.

The lady didn't know whether she heard or not, and turned away.

The three of them followed the sound and saw a big man, who was pinching a woman's neck and fighting at the woman.

The big man spat to the side: "Crazy Nizi, let you serve this master well, aren't you happy?" This is the blessing you have cultivated in eight lifetimes! ”

Syllable.

After saying this, the big man slapped the woman in the face fiercely.

The woman's face, which I had seen pity, immediately became red and swollen.

"Hu Lu."

Zhao Yu's face sank.

What is it that such a big man bullies a weak woman?

Hu Lu also had this intention, so he directly went up and kicked the man away and helped the woman in.

Zhao Yu and Shunzi arrived slowly.

"Who are you? Don't inquire about my name in this territory, my own uncle is an official in the capital! ”

The man knew how powerful Hu Lu was, and he didn't dare to act rashly, but he was still very tough on his lips.

"Oh? Who is your own uncle? ”

When the big man heard Zhao Yu's inquiry, he immediately straightened his chest proudly.

"My uncle is a Dali Templeman, was scared, right? Don't hurry up and admit your mistake to me. ”

The corners of Zhao Yu's lips hooked up with a cold smile.

"Hu Lu, it seems that we really want to give Dali Temple a big gift."

Zhao Yu waved his hand.

Hu Lu immediately understood and tied up the man neatly.

"I warn you, if you dare to do anything to me, my uncle will not spare you."

The man's expression was a little flustered, and then he struggled violently.

"Noise."

Zhao Yu frowned.

Then, the man was stunned by Hu Lu's hand knife.

Only then did Zhao Yu turn his gaze to the woman just now.

The woman was very thin, as if she had fallen down at the first blow.

The face is very handsome, and after a closer look, it looks a little similar to Gu Baige.

"What's your name?"

When the woman heard Zhao Yu's inquiry, she was a little cowardly.

"My name is... Gu Man. ”

Zhao Yu's eyes lit up, but he didn't expect that there was nowhere to find it when he stepped on the iron shoes, and it didn't take any effort to get it.

I wanted to look for more, but they happened to run into it.

"Let's go, Your Majesty has something to discuss with you today."

Gu Man was a little hesitant when he heard Zhao Yu's words.

"Let's go, your sister has died, Your Majesty wants to comfort you."

When Gu Man heard Zhao Yu's words, a trace of loneliness flashed in his eyes.

"Sister... She..."

Gu Man squeaked, but he still couldn't say anything.

The Imperial Study.

Zhao Ruilong's own domineering pressure on Gu Man was a little out of breath.

"You are Gu Baige's twin sister, Gu Man."

Zhao Ruilong looked at Gu Man's body quietly with some scrutiny.

"Yes."

Gu Man tightened his sleeves nervously, and his whole person trembled slightly.

"Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you."

Zhao Ruilong smiled slightly.

"Since your sister has died, then this mantle must be inherited by you."

Hearing Zhao Ruilong's words, Gu Man raised his head in surprise.

"From today on, your name is Gu Baige, you are the Anhe County Lord of the Great River Dynasty, and you are going to marry the Five Kingdoms."

Hearing Zhao Ruilong's words, Gu Man nodded.

"Sincerely, take her down to change her outfit and learn court etiquette."

"Yes."

Silence returned to the Imperial Study.

Zhao Ruilong looked at Zhao Yu and frowned.

"Xiao Yu, you think that the turmoil in the courts of the Five Kingdoms is somewhat credible."

Zhao Yu pondered for a moment.

"Five points."

"Why?"

Zhao Ruilong became suspicious of these five countries, and it was impossible for them to dissipate easily.

"The five countries need to marry the princess, which shows that the court is indeed turbulent, but the five princesses are named and they are suspected of being hostages."

Hearing Zhao Yu's words, Zhao Ruilong nodded with satisfaction, which was exactly what he thought in his heart.

"Then according to Xiaoyu, what should we do?"

Zhao Yu smiled slightly, and confidently said his opinion.

"Brother Chen thinks that if the five countries dare to stir their minds, we will plan and beat him by surprise."

"If this ally is really in trouble, we can be regarded as doing them a great favor, attacking and retreating."

Hearing Zhao Yu's words, Zhao Ruilong's heart was happy.

"Xiao Yu, you are really getting more and more satisfied with you, this great wisdom is foolish, quite the shadow of the emperor's uncle back then!"

Zhao Ruilong was very pleased, looking at Zhao Yu shining, just like seeing his own child shining.

"The imperial brother praised it falsely, and the younger brother only put forward some small opinions, and he couldn't get on the table."

Zhao Ruilong stretched out his finger and nodded at Zhao Yu through the void.

"You, you, you're getting better at talking to please me, hahaha..."
