In the Yin family in Lihua Lane in the south of the city, Gu Shu had just come in, and a child sitting on the steps of the courtyard gate turned his head to look at him.

The son of the Yin family and his wife is just two years old, a little too thin, with a small tugs on his head, he is very well-behaved on weekdays, willing to listen to adults, and does not go out to play, and is trapped in this small courtyard all day long.

"Why don't you go inside?"

"There's a guest inside, my mother asked me to be here."

Gu Shu looked towards the hall and vaguely saw someone inside.

"Give!"

Gu Shu was not in a hurry to go in, and took out a paper bag from his sleeve, which contained the bud candy he bought for the child in Wuyi Lane.

Not surprisingly, the little guy's eyes lit up, and he reached out to take the paper bag, "Thank you, uncle!" ”

The child was so happy that he ran around the yard with the paper bag in his arms, sat down on the steps again, took out a piece of bud candy, and licked it carefully.

Although this child calls him "uncle", he is not related to Gu Shu by blood. His father and mother were designated by Xu Guogong to accompany Gu Shu...... Experienced.

Coldly, Gu Shu remembered his ...... "fellow countryman" in Wei Xiangjun's mouth.

General Weicai is now in the limelight, who doesn't know that he is the lord of the country and his close ministers.

But these Liang Guo's meticulous works, including the children, can only hide incognito and hide in the dark. A large group of people desperately searched for tips, but they were taken away by others.

The descendants of the Xu family seem to have their lives arranged as soon as they are born.

Those who can get Xu Guogong's blue eyes are held in their hands, and they don't have to bother and work hard, and someone will help them in everything.

If Xu Guogong is annoyed, there will be no future.

Gu Shu, the grandson, read well with books, so he let Xu Guogong take a look. But his role is only that of the future Liang court, a subordinate who will overcome obstacles for the next head of the family.

The funny thing is that the next head of the family seems to be happy.

"I heard my brother-in-law's voice."

Yin Sheng stuck his head out of it, "Our uncle is from the countryside!" ”

Gu Shu walked into the hall and saw a long-shirted guest sitting next to Yin Sheng drinking tea.

The one and Gu Shu glanced at each other, nodded slightly, and said hello.

Gu Shu recognized him.

This middle-aged man named Huang Yuanshou was one of Xu Guogong's most trusted aides, and he hardly left or right on weekdays. The last time Xu Guogong came to Hengyang, he accompanied him.

Could it be that Xu Guogong has arrived in person again?

In the end, he is the master, although Gu Shu had doubts, he didn't ask, and bowed his head slightly reservedly, which was considered a return gift.

"Gu Jiuye is becoming more and more talented!"

Huang Yuanshou coldly praised Gu Shu.

It stands to reason that Gu Shu is not included in the ranking of the grandsons of the Xu family, but Xu Guogong has listed him, which can be regarded as a kind of attention. It's just that few people call him according to this ranking, and Huang Yuanshou is an exception.

"Mr. Huang has won the award!"

Gu Shu replied without humility or arrogance.

Huang Yuanshou put the tea cup in his hand to the side and dusted off his long shirt, "Among the grandchildren of the old man, the most powerful except for the fifth master is Gu Jiuye." ”

Hearing this, the corners of Gu Shu's eyes twitched, and he arched his hand and said, "Gu Shu doesn't dare to be." ”

There's nothing you don't dare. Gu Shu thinks that he is talented and witty, and he is by no means inferior to Xu Qi.

The only thing they are worse in ...... There is a difference between inside and outside.

was a little dissatisfied, and Gu Shu kept it in his heart.

Xu Qi's current style is to regard himself as a Jibei person, and he is clearly against the Qi State.

In the past two years, Qi has been showing favor to their big beams, and there is a great tendency to seek an alliance between the two countries. Now that Xu Qi's identity is unknown, if it is leaked, where will Xu Guogong, who has always advocated an alliance, put his face?

Even Gu Shu couldn't help but suspect that Xu Qi had really forgotten that he was from Liang Guo?

"In the letter to the old man, the fifth master has always praised you, and this time I came over, it was also good news. Ling Tang was very concerned about Gu Jiuye, in the end, he was an orphan and a widow, and the old man couldn't bear to see the mother and son separated. Within half a year, the ninth master will return to Chang'an! ”

Gu Shu opened his mouth.

came to Hengyang, Gu Shu wanted to do a career, so that the old man could be impressed, and the mother and son would be able to hold their heads up in the Xuguo Mansion in the future.

It is because of this ambition that Gu Shu has come to this day. From being completely overwhelmed at the beginning, to now clinging to the Gao family, he has gradually made his own contacts in various ministries.

"Thank you for your love, it's just ......"

Gu Shu hesitated for a moment and said, "It's not time yet." ”

Xu Qi said good things about him to Xu Guogong for no reason, and Gu Shu was not happy at all.

I'm afraid that Xu Qi is on guard, and he came to rob Wei Xiangjun.

No one knew the grievances in Gu Shu's heart.

Obviously, he is the one who is about to get engaged to Wei Xiangjun, why did he let that guy come later?

Gu Shu didn't want to leave.

He hadn't done anything yet, and he still had some illusions about something.

"What do you mean by that?"

Huang Yuanshou looked puzzled.

"Now that Jibei has cleared the Gao Party internally and made every effort to deal with the Qi State externally, it may not be a good opportunity for us to make a profit."

Gu Shu's sentence in front of him was a little confused, and the rest was sincere, "In my humble opinion, although the Gao family has lost the trust of the lord of Jibei, the power of Gao is entrenched in the court, and it will not be able to fall for a while. Those under his command who have privately received and benefited from Qi can be used by us, anyway, what they want is silver, and we can afford to give it. ”

Huang Yuanshou nodded while listening, seemingly agreeing with Gu Shu's statement.

Yin Sheng on the side scratched his head, and felt that Gu Shu had a lot of things to do.

Who wants to leave their hometown and come to the north of the thistle to be a fine worker.

Especially now, Jibei's work is becoming more and more difficult because of that Xu Wuye.

How many details did Qi Guo plant in Jibei and colluded with anyone, but they were all found out by their brothers at the risk of turning around, Xu Qi turned his head and gave the list to the people of Jibei, and the co-authors all helped Jibei to work.

Such a master, it's not interesting to follow him. It's better that when Xu Qi didn't appear, the big guys only had to listen to the old man, and everyone had a head.

"What Gu Jiuye said is very reasonable. It's just that the fifth master said that he will arrange the rest of the matter. ”

Huang Yuanshou said, laughing angrily.

If it weren't for Xu Qi's delay in returning to Chang'an, the old man would have been so anxious that he would not have been sent over.

In the past two years, the old man felt that he was aging too fast, and he was anxious to take Xu Qi back to his side and give him a ride. Only that one shirked vigorously, saying that he had not achieved an inch of success, and he could not convince people when he went back.

This time, he made meritorious contributions, but he was for Jibei, and he had nothing to do with Liang Guo.

The old man has been in power for most of his life, and his subordinates have responded to every call, but he can't control his most painful grandson.

It also teaches people to cry and laugh.

Huang Yuanshou also came back with cruel words, if the fifth master didn't come back, the old man would have to make other plans.

The position of the next head of the family, as long as the surname is Xu, should be coveted.

However, based on Huang Yuanshou's observation, these words did not scare Xu Qi.

Thinking that he might have to return in vain, Huang Yuanshou also had a headache.

But he came here today for an important matter.

"Gu Jiuye, the old man has negotiated a family for you, my aunt and grandmother have seen it personally, the other party's family background is excellent, and the one who booked with the fifth master is still a cousin, which can be regarded as a kiss and a kiss."

Gu Shu was stunned for a moment, not because his husband wanted him to marry, but because Xu Qi actually ......

"The fifth brother is going to start a family here."

Gu Shu pretended to look at Huang Yuanshou innocently, "The girl is from Jibei." ”

Huang Yuanshou was still laughing at first, but his smile froze at this moment, "What? ”

This time, Huang Yuanshou came over, and it was also Xu Guogong who was looking for a wife for Xu Qi who had been decided, so he came over to ventilate.

Although that girl's family background is not as good as the Xu family, her father and brother are quite powerful in the court, and they will definitely be able to help him in the future.

When he mentioned this matter to Xu Qi yesterday, Xu Qi didn't seem to be in high spirits.

Huang Yuanshou didn't take it to heart, the family affairs of the descendants of the Xu family have always been about interests, and they have nothing to do with the relationship between children and daughters, and they don't need Xu Qi to be happy.

But now, it doesn't seem to be the case.

In the afternoon of the next day, the door of the Houxi Mansion in Hanxiang was opened, although there were no lanterns, from the smiles on the faces of the people who came in and out, it could be known that there was a happy event in this family.

When the drum music sounded, a carriage stopped outside the gate of Xifu.

Wei Dongheng got the news, took people outside, stood by the carriage and said, "Master Hou is here, the little nephew is shining here." ”

The people in the car didn't even lift the curtains, and said coldly: "Your mansion is happy, the old lady has instructed, that is, you are now hiding from our Dongfu, I am an elder, and I can't care about it, so come over and say hello!" ”

Although he was bored, Wei Dongheng looked at his face and said, "Since Master Hou is here, please sit inside for a while." ”

The people in the car did not respond for a long time.

Wei Dongheng lowered his head and pursed his lips.

So close, Wei Dongqing had to take a carriage, and the shelves were big enough.

In fact, Wei Dongheng also understands that Wei Dongqing is waiting for him, please be the officiant.

But Wei Dongheng was not as good as he wanted.

I heard that this morning the lord of the country reprimanded several princes in the court, scolding them for taking the money for nothing, but he was the grass on the wall, which means that these people are still talking to the prince of Changning.

Among the people who were reprimanded was Wei Dongqing.

He doesn't add to his daughter's heart.

"Uncle, it's not good!"

Someone hurried over.

Wei Dongqing, who had not shown his face all this time, immediately poked his head out of the car window, "What's wrong?" ”

"Officers and soldiers came from outside the house, saying that they were ordered and ordered, and ...... order"

Wei Dongqing's heart was cold, and he asked in a trembling voice, "Bastard, don't say it soon!" ”

“…… Raid the house! ”

The family member who reported the news cried: "The old lady was so frightened that she fainted! ”

Wei Dongqing pressed his hand on his forehead and was about to cry.

When Qiu was taken away, no one said that they would raid the Hou Mansion of Han Township. He thought he had escaped, but he was too happy.

"Go back, go back!"

Wei Dongqing gritted his teeth and ordered.

More than an hour later, Wei Xiangjun came back from Dongfu with a medicine box, and the silence outside the house had returned to the past.

Wei Dongheng stood outside the door, rubbing his hands in a hurry, and when he saw Wei Xiangjun, he immediately ran forward and asked, "What's going on over there?" ”

"The old lady was frightened, he has used the Anshen Pill at this time, and he is already better."

Wei Xiangjun didn't expect that on the day of her acceptance, she would have to go to the doctor.

The customs of Jibei do not need newcomers to come forward. But according to the rules, the bride should stay in the boudoir.

Wei Xiangjun was in the house, and when he was in a panic, Mrs. Zheng ran over and asked her to go to Dongfu quickly, saying that it was the one who was raiding the house, and the old lady was not going to do it soon.

When Wei Xiangjun passed, there were no officers and soldiers in the East Mansion. said that he was raiding his house, so he searched Wei Dongqing's study and the courtyard where he lived, and then took people away. Everything is fine at home.

"Commander Fang Caiwu came over, I listened to him, the Qiu family confessed that Wei Dongqing had a close relationship with Wang Tan, and helped him pull several buyers. Now he can't turn over. ”

Wei Dongheng did not hide his schadenfreude, "It's really relieving!" ”

"Dad forgot again, we don't know anything, don't we ask anything?"

Wei Xiangjun reminded, grabbed Wei Dongheng's sleeve and walked to the house.

The father and daughter were talking as they walked, but they didn't notice that there was a middle-aged man on the other side of the street, looking at them for a long time.
