Shen Rumo took a deep breath and asked straight to the point: "Father, the son wants to ask, is the concubine selection ceremony organized by the pure concubine Niangniang?" ”

The emperor glanced at Gonggong Ji, and Gonggong Ji bowed and said: "Back to the prince, it is indeed handled by the pure concubine Niangniang, and the concubine Niangniang is the assistant." ”

Shen Rumo nodded: "Father, the son doesn't want Concubine Rou to be involved in this matter." ”

Emperor: "??? ”

Ji Gonggong's eyebrows jumped, and he retreated back to his place.

The emperor's face did not change, and he couldn't see his joy or anger: "Then tell me why?" This matter is handed over to Concubine Chun, and the helper is also chosen by herself, and I haven't asked, you always have to give me a reason. ”

Shen Rumo lowered his eyes, pursed his lips vigorously, put his hands on his knees, and did not answer for a while.

The sun outside the window was shining golden, falling quietly on him.

Somehow, the emperor suddenly remembered that when he was young, he was also like this, quiet, and didn't like to talk, but there was a kind of other prince in his eyes who was not stubborn.

The emperor was in his heart: "What's wrong?" Tell your father that if someone makes you unhappy, your father will definitely make decisions for you. ”

Shen Rumo said slowly: "The Gu family is a merchant and is used to weighing it, and the minions in the Erchen Mansion have also dealt with the Gu family's shop, and the Erchen doesn't like it very much." The person chosen by the concubine, the son can't believe it, if the pure concubine insists on using her, the son has nothing to say, if he doesn't participate, anyway, the son doesn't want to marry anyone. ”

The emperor was so angry that he couldn't cry or laugh: "That's it? ”

Shen Rumo nodded, and his tone was solemn: "That's it." If the father doesn't allow it, the minister will go back. ”

"Okay, okay, my father will allow you, okay?" The emperor stroked his forehead and chuckled, "Really...... The bigger it is, the more childish it becomes. Then don't let Concubine Rou take care of this matter, in fact, she is not very suitable in the first place, and she has no children, so naturally she doesn't understand this, but she was chosen by the pure concubine, and I didn't ask. ”

"If she resents her son, it doesn't matter if she remembers her son, if she is a pure concubine, she is to blame......"

"Nonsense!" The emperor sank his face, "You are my most distressed son, who dares to hold a grudge?" It's not a big deal, you don't care, I should be you, and I'll let people spread the word in a while. ”

"Thank you, Father. There the minister retired. ”

The emperor looked at the snacks on the table, and said to Ji Gonggong: "Put that one on, let him take it back, and pick up those few things, he likes to eat." ”

said and smiled to himself: "Really, I said that I came to say goodbye, and I came empty-handed, but I remembered you and gave you snacks to eat!" What's the use of having so many children? ”

Shen Rumo's eyes drooped slightly, and he took the dim sum handed over by Gonggong Ji with both hands: "Father Xie." ”

"Alright, let's go! Pay more attention and talk when you are missing. ”

"Yes."

As soon as Shen Rumo left, the smile on the emperor's face gradually faded: "Go, inquire, what did the Gu family do, Lao Qi is a measured person, and if he can make a special trip to the palace, he will say that he doesn't like Rou Concubine, something must have happened."

In addition, you go to Concubine Rou and tell her that she doesn't have to worry about the concubine selection ceremony, just join in the fun when the time comes. ”

"Yes," Father-in-law Su agreed, "...... that pure concubine over there."

"It's okay, you go and pass the decree, I will use it at Concubine Chun for dinner today, and tell her when the time comes."

"Yes."

……

The Gu family's business is indeed not small, silk, tea, porcelain, and jewelry are all involved, and there are plans to do a medicinal herb business this year.

Gu Ruzheng was proud of the spring breeze at this time, and the eldest daughter Gu Jiarou was favored as a concubine, and even with him in the past few years, they had the highest status in the Gu family and had the most right to speak, and he himself sat on the position of the head of the family last year.

He was talking about a shop for the past two days, and the other party was originally in the medicinal herb business, and he fell in love with it, so he wanted to grab it, and used a lot of means, just waiting for the other party to give in.

Just got the news, the other party is already exhausted, and he is about to come to beg him.

He hummed a song proudly, drank tea, and was in a very happy mood.

The butler hurried in, his face changing.

"Master, it's not good!"

Gu Ruzheng was happy in his heart, and when he heard this, he was a little disappointed: "What did you say?" I'm fine, sir, why is it not good? ”

"Master, just now the official sent to Xiao Gu's mansion and took some things, saying that he wanted to use them for Lord Gu on the road......"

Gu Ruzheng was confused when he heard it, "Xiao Gu Mansion" is Gu Shang's mansion, because he is a generation younger than Gu Ruzheng, and now he is on an errand in Dali Temple, so everyone in the Gu family is respectfully called "Xiao Gu Mansion".

"On the way? What's on the road? He's going out? Dali Temple still needs to go out? Isn't there any case elsewhere? Gu Ruzheng didn't feel anything, "Just go, the errand of the yamen, it just so happens that the court pays for it, go out for a walk." ”

"No," the butler stomped his foot, "It's Master Gu who has been assigned!" ”

Gu Ru's forehand shook, and the antique teapot almost shattered: "What did you say?" Say it again! ”

"It's Master Gu, who has been assigned to Beicheng Pass!"

Beichengguan, that is a bitter cold place, now the capital is only in early autumn, and there is already heavy snow over there.

The prisoners who are sent there are destined for those who can get there safely.

Gu Ruzheng was a little confused: "This is ...... What's going on? Did you say anything? ”

"The old slave doesn't know yet, but he knows that there is a mess in Xiao Gu's Mansion, and it's all messed up, master, do you want to go and see?"

Gu Ru was standing up to go, but stopped as soon as he got off the steps.

No, no.

Gu Shang's background, Dali Temple knows, and if such a verdict is made under such circumstances, something must have happened.

"You go, check clearly, it's really not okay to go to Dali Temple to inquire and see what he has done."

He had to see if it would affect him.

As soon as the housekeeper turned around and walked out, the housekeeper ran in from outside, snorting and panting: "Master, it's not good!" ”

Gu Ru was angry, and he was worried that he had nowhere to be angry: "Bastard!" Will you talk well? ”

Jia Ding shrunk his neck: "Back to the master, our big customer of the silk village, Master Liu, said that he wanted to terminate the contract with us!" There is also a tea house, saying that it was found to have moldy tea leaves, and it is to be returned! ……”

Gu Ruzheng's eyes darkened, and he instantly had a premonition that something was wrong, so many things happened at the same time, it was definitely not accidental!

"Master, it's not good!"

Another servant ran in, and his face turned white.

Gu Ruzheng now had a headache when he heard this: "Fart!" Palm! ”

The housekeeper went up and slapped the housekeeper twice: "What's the matter, say!" ”

"Two yacha came to the door, saying that they were from Jingzhao Mansion and said...... He said that someone had sued you, and he wanted to ask you to go to the yamen to reply. ”

Gu Ruzheng's eyes darkened, he felt incredible, and his tone changed: "What? Sue me? Who sues me? If you don't do it, you can't do it ”

As he was talking, two yacha outside the door strode in: "Where is Gu Ruzheng?" ”
