Gu Qingcheng bowed his head and was silent.

Horses of courses.

He has his own life, what he wants to do, what he wants to become, it is his own freedom, and no one can change his mind.

Official?

He once made an oath that he would not be an official in the same dynasty as his eldest brother in this life.

Now, the eldest brother has died unjustly.

He still didn't want to be an official in the treacherous and smoky court, and no one knew better than him how upright his eldest brother was.

Qiushui took a fancy to him at the beginning, so he chose the eldest brother between him and the eldest brother, right?

How could such an upright person be imprisoned for the crime of corruption?

How much of this conspiracy there was, he did not know for the time being.

Wen Yun saw Gu Qingcheng bowing his head and not speaking, and he was even more angry, he couldn't figure out how his once well-behaved and cute, eccentric daughter could like such a rigid person!

Every time he spoke, he looked like he was going to die or live, like a gourd with a sawed mouth, and he didn't know he listened to him!

It's just not oil and salt!

"Are you kid listening to me?"

Gu Qingcheng nodded.

"Hmm."

"Father-in-law, the top priority now is to quickly set off to Donghuang County to solve the matter of my niece and son-in-law, there are only three days in total, we have already delayed for a day, now rush back just right, if we delay any longer, my niece and son-in-law may not be able to save his life."

Wen Yun, "......"

Forget it when he's angry!

"This official knows that if you don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, it's not good for you to find this official!"

Gu Qingcheng continued, "Father-in-law, human life is a matter of ......."

Wen Yun rolled her eyes.

"Although this official is the guardian of a state and governs the entire Ningzhou, but the affairs of Donghuang County are generally handled by the county order itself, and if this official rashly intervenes, I am afraid that it will cause dissatisfaction among the officials below."

Gu Qingcheng saw through his threat and was silent for nearly a stick of incense.

After all, it was a sigh.

"As long as the father-in-law is willing to help, the son-in-law will obey the father-in-law's arrangement in the future."

Wen Yun was satisfied.

Only then did he look at Gu Rao, and a surprise crossed his eyes.

"This is your niece?"

It looks quite iconic, not like it came out of a small place like Wild Boar Town, and I've never heard of a nephew having a niece before, why did a niece suddenly pop up?

Could it be a distant relative?

If you look closely, there is a trace of similarity between him and his son-in-law Meiyu.

Wen Yun's eyes narrowed suddenly.

"Why didn't I hear about it in advance, what niece do you have? I haven't heard of you having any other siblings, so where did this niece come from? ”

The tone is gradually dangerous.

Gu Qingcheng frowned.

"Now is not the time to explain this, when the matter of the niece and son-in-law is resolved, the son-in-law must give his father-in-law a satisfactory explanation."

"Are you ready to go now?"

Wen Yun was about to agree.

The butler suddenly ran in from outside with a happy face.

"Master, the second lady has written a letter!"

Wen Yun's old face suddenly showed a relieved and happy expression.

"Bring it, I'll take a look."

After taking the letter from the housekeeper's hand, he turned to Gu Qingcheng and Gu Rao and said, "You sit down and wait for a while, it's rare for the little girl to write a letter back home, I'll see what she wrote first." ”

As he spoke, he opened the envelope.

When he saw the contents of the letter, his expression changed slightly, and the hand holding the letter gradually tightened, and after a while, it gradually returned to normal.

There was some hesitation in his eyes.

Gu Qingcheng waited for a while, not waiting for Wen Yun's reply.

"Father-in-law, have you finished reading the letter?"

"Let's go after reading it, we can't delay any longer, don't you want to be warm?"

"I happened to go to Donghuang County this time, I can live there for a while, she misses you very much, and often talks to her son-in-law about you."

Wen Yun suddenly covered his chest, and his face became a little pale.

The butler was shocked.

"Master, what's wrong with you?"

Wen Yun rubbed his head again.

"I'm sick with an old problem, chest tightness and shortness of breath."

The housekeeper hurriedly said, "I'll go and ask for a doctor, master, you are not feeling well now, so you should rest first, and talk about other things later." ”

Wen Yun nodded.

"Okay."

Gu Qingcheng was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect this change.

"Father-in-law......"

Don't wait for him to finish.

The housekeeper said bitterly, "Uncle, the old man is old, his health is not good, it is not suitable to travel and travel, and now the old disease has recurred, don't you want his life if you urge him to hurry again?" ”

"Your niece-in-law's life is important, isn't the master's life important?"

Gu Qingcheng intuitively felt that things were not simple.

My father-in-law was about to agree just now, how could he suddenly fall ill after seeing Nuan Nuan's letter?

"Father-in-law, since you can't be present in person, can you write a letter and ask the county order to postpone the handling of this case?"

Wen Yun was silent again.

Gu Qingcheng's heart jumped and asked, "You suddenly changed your mind after receiving Nuan Nuan's letter, could it be that this matter has something to do with her?" ”

Wen Yun slapped it on the table.

"Presumptuous!"

"You actually suspect your wife who has been married to you for many years for the sake of an outsider?"

"In order to marry you, she didn't even listen to my father's words, and let the son of a prominent family not marry, but wanted to marry you, a poor man who was poor and white, fatherless and motherless."

"You don't value her so much?"

"If it weren't for you, she would have been Mrs. Shilang by now, where would she have to endure hardships with you in the small boar town, and she would not be able to raise her head in front of her brothers and sisters when she returned to her parents' house!"

It is precisely because when I go back to my parents' house that I can't hold my head up in front of my brothers and sisters, I rarely come back for so many years.

Because of this incident, her mother cried a lot behind her back.

Originally, this daughter was the second daughter, he and his wife have held it in the palm of their hands since they were young, so many children, the most beloved is this little daughter, who would have thought that after this little daughter got married, she would go back to her parents' house the least, and accompany her parents the least.

Although he hates iron and steel, he still can't bear to blame his daughter, and if he wants to blame him, he blames this son-in-law who doesn't know the height of the sky, and abducted the daughter they spoiled and grew up with.

I don't know how to cherish it!

How can this not make people angry?

Gu Qingcheng also knew that he was at a loss.

"I'm sorry."

"I was too anxious just now, and the time was too coincidental, so I was stunned for a while, and I hope my father-in-law will forgive me."

Wen Yun's anger came and went quickly.

Not to mention......

"Forget it, I won't worry about you this time, I'm really not feeling good today, just according to what you just said, I'll write a letter to the county order."

Gu Qingcheng breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thank you, father-in-law."

Wen Yun snorted heavily.

"What you just said must also be counted, and you are not allowed to be like this in the future, give me the imperial examination, and in the future, we will enter the court and become officials together."

Gu Qingcheng nodded.

"Okay, as long as my father-in-law is willing to help, let me do anything."

His words made Wen Yun feel very uncomfortable.

"We persuaded you so at the beginning, you were stubborn, and now, for the sake of your niece and son-in-law, you can sacrifice your own persistence?"

"What do you have in your heart about my daughter?"

"She has suffered a lot of eyes for you, but you have been indifferent, you can change for the sake of others, I am really disappointed in you!"
