Traveling through books to ancient times, I provoke the love of villains and powerful ministers

"I, Qi Qingxi, swear... If I do something wrong to you, I will be struck by lightning and die a terrible death."

After Qi Qingxi swears, she looks at Gu Yu, only to see his chest vibrate slightly, and her deep laughter surrounds her ears.

"what's wrong with you?"

Gu Yu finally stopped being silent, and he smiled suspiciously: "What's going on?"

"I swear, shouldn't you stop me, and then tell me, don't let me swear indiscriminately, you believe me, or something like that?" Qi Qingxi squinted at Gu Yu, "You are still silent, something is wrong with you."

Gu Yu couldn't stop smiling again.

Qi Qingxi was a little angry, she just raised her waist to get up from his lap, but was pushed back by Gu Yu again.

"Don't be angry, huh?" Gu Yu said softly, "You shouldn't have said something that I don't believe you in the first place, how could I not believe you, those words are superfluous."

"Then I swear, why didn't you stop me?" Qi Qingxi said with his hands on his hips.

"Naturally, it's because I know you won't do anything wrong to me, so even if you make a poisonous oath, it won't come true. In this case, it doesn't matter if I stop or not." Gu Yu said slowly while holding Qi Qingxi's hand .

What she said... makes sense... She couldn't refute it, and Qi Qingxi was speechless for a while.

Gu Yu smiled and pinched Qi Qingxi's nose: "I also have something to tell you, and you should remember it all the time, no matter when I will trust you without hesitation, stand with you, and face all the luck and happiness in this world together. Misfortune."

Qi Qingxi was very moved when she heard this, she threw herself into Gu Yu's arms, her eyes sparkling: "Yes."

Gu Yu also hugged her tightly, and the two were talking tenderly when an extremely inappropriate voice came from outside the carriage.

"Master, we're at General Li's residence." Gu Liang said.

Gu Yu let out a heavy breath: "I'll take you in."

After sending Qi Qingxi into the mansion, Gu Yu paid New Year's greetings to Li Wenkang and his wife.

During the New Year's Eve, there were many guests in the house, and Li Wenkang and his wife didn't have time to entertain Gu Yu. Fortunately, Gu Yu is now his own family, and he doesn't need to bother entertaining like other guests. Qi Qingxi is enough to entertain him.

When Qi Yunming and the juniors in the mansion heard that Gu Yu was coming, they all ran over to wish Gu Yu New Year greetings, and Gu Yu sent them the red envelopes he had prepared early in the morning.

Gu Yu suddenly asked Qi Yunming: "I heard that you are going to take the provincial exam this year? But you want to go back to Linzhou Prefecture for the exam?"

Qi Yunming stood there and replied respectfully: "No, my uncle has already moved the household registrations of our brothers and sisters to the capital, so I can stay in the capital directly for the exam."

Gu Yu: "It's very good, it will save you a lot of trouble."

Hearing Gu Yu and Qi Yunming talk about the imperial examination, Qi Qingxi suddenly remembered that next spring will be the triennial exam, Wang Wanru and his wife should also come to Beijing earlier as last time.

Qi Qingxi thought about it, and decided to write a letter to ask.

When Wang Wanru and the others came back, they lived in a house in the backyard of a restaurant on Zhengyangmen Street.

But because the business was booming, guests often couldn't get a seat for a few days, so she simply asked someone to convert the house in the backyard into a few private rooms, which could no longer be used by people.

If the couple needed it, she could help them find a place to live in advance. After all, they were friends, and the couple also helped her a lot when they were in Ansui.

Gu Yu sat in the mansion for a while and was about to leave. Qi Qingxi wanted to send Gu Yu out, but it was freezing cold, and Gu Yu refused to let her see him out of the courtyard.

When he was leaving, he told Qi Qingxi that the Metropolitan Procuratorate needed him to go out of the capital for some important business, and it would take half a month at the earliest to return to Beijing.

Qi Qingxi held Gu Yu's hand reluctantly: "When are you leaving?"

Gu Yu reached out and touched the tip of Qi Qingxi's hair: "I'm leaving tomorrow, you stay at home and wait for me to come back, huh?"

If it wasn't for the fact that someone would come over at any time during the day, Qi Qingxi really wanted to give Gu Yu a big hug, so he could only wait for him to come back.

Qi Qingxi looked at Gu Yu's leaving back reluctantly, and she didn't turn back until his figure disappeared around the corner.

In order not to disturb Qi Qingxi's conversation with Gu Yu, Ginkgo and Sequoia hid in the side room as female workers.

Qi Qingxi called Sequoia over and asked her to find Liu Yong in the outer courtyard, and she had something to ask him.

Sequoia took the order, put down the work in hand and hurried to Li Yong's residence in the front yard.

But Liu Yong was not found in the front yard. A servant in the front yard told her that Liu Yong had gone to the back yard to help them with work.

Sequoia ran to the backyard again, and sure enough, she saw Liu Yong helping to chop firewood in front of the woodshed.

After walking for so long, Hongshan was exhausted, so she took a breather, walked up to Liu Yong and called him, "Brother Liu Yong."

Liu Yong heard someone calling him, he turned his head and saw Hongshan standing on the promenade not far away, he immediately put down the hatchet in his hand.

"Sequoia girl, why are you here?"

"Miss asked me to come to you, saying that I have something to ask." Sequoia said, "I went to the outer courtyard and said that you are here to help with the work. You are not a servant in the mansion, and you should not do these things."

Liu Yong stretched out his hand and scratched his head in embarrassment: "It's not that Miss Qi kindly asked us to stay here for the New Year. I have nothing to repay, and I happen to be free, so I just want to do some chores in the house, which can be considered a little bit of my duty." Heart."

Now that Miss Qi has become a lady of the official family, it is naturally not good to call her shopkeeper Qi as before. After all, although some official families also have many shops in private, they look down on people from merchant backgrounds.

Miss Qi really doesn't care about these things, but he doesn't want to be looked down upon because of one of his titles.

Sequoia smiled. Unexpectedly, Liu Yong is still a caring person: "Then please put down your work and come with me."

"Okay." Liu Yong greeted another servant who was working with him, and left with Sequoia.

On the way, Liu Yong chatted with Sequoia when he had nothing to say.

"Actually, I met Sequoia girl in Linzhou Mansion before."

Sequoia was taken aback when she heard the words. She used to be famous in Liuxiang, Linzhou Prefecture. As long as she has been to Liuxiang, it is not surprising to see her.

It's just that Liu Yong is also a womanizer who hangs around Liuxiang.

Sequoia put away her smile and responded lightly: "That's right."

Liu Yong has traveled all over the world with the caravan of Yong'an Company these years, and he is used to watching people's faces. He obviously felt that Sequoia suddenly became unhappy for some reason.

But he still smiled and said: "That time when you and Miss Qi were guests at the host's house, I happened to be there that day, but we are far away, maybe you didn't see me."

So it turned out that she had misunderstood, Sequoia couldn't help but blush.

Fortunately, the chaifang was not far from the yard where Qi Qingxi lived. Sequoia took Liu Yong into the house and ran away quickly.
