The banquet in Li's mansion did not end until the day of feeding, and the Gu couple had dinner in Li's mansion before returning home.

After a day of dealing with the wives and ladies in Li's mansion, Qi Qingxi was already exhausted, and fell down on the bed after washing up, not even wanting to move a finger.

Once Gu Yu returned to the mansion, he went to the front yard to discuss things with Li Yu.

Qi Qingxi's eyelids were heavy, she couldn't wait for Gu Yu, and soon fell into a deep sleep.

When she woke up after a nap, the third watch had already been knocked outside, but Gu Yu hadn't returned to her room, and she didn't know that she was discussing something important with Li Yu.

The name Li Yu always felt familiar to Qi Qingxi.

She lay on the bed thinking about it for a long time, but she didn't remember where she heard it. Instead, she felt a little thirsty.

Qi Qingxi got up and poured herself a glass of water. A glass of cold water poured down her throat, which made her sober. She suddenly remembered where she had heard Li Yu's name.

Isn't the eldest prince of Wajin Kingdom mentioned in the book called Li Yu!

She remembered that the eldest prince written in the book was not from a high family background, and his mother was from Dayu who was kidnapped and taken to Wajin as a slave. Therefore, this eldest prince was not valued by the Wajin royal family since he was a child, so he hated Dawei to the core. Yu country.

However, this eldest prince is a formidable person. In the end, he did not know how to become the emperor of Wa Jin, and the first thing he did after becoming emperor was to crusade against Dayu.

At that time, Emperor Qitai of Dayu had passed away from illness, and Li Qiming also ascended the throne smoothly.

But Li Qiming couldn't recognize his own abilities, and despite the civil and military opposition of the Manchu Dynasty, he insisted on fighting but lost several cities, and finally had to send envoys to Wajin to seek peace.

And the envoy to Wajin was Gu Yu.

It was precisely because of this mission and the successful persuasion of Wajin to retreat that after returning to Dayu, Gu Yu had a prosperous career and was promoted to Minister of the Household Department not long after, and then successfully joined the cabinet.

However, things after that were not as good as they appeared on the surface. After Gu Yu joined the cabinet, the struggle with Li Qiming really began.

It stands to reason that Gu Yu and Li Yu knew each other, and they met for the first time after Gu Yu went to Wajin as an envoy.

But now, because Gu Yu stayed in the capital to serve, he was able to go with the mission to pick up his relatives. Instead, he got to know Li Yu, who was still the prince, in advance.

In this way, there is another thing that is wrong.

In the original book, there was never any mention of Wajin Dayu's marriage, and there was no mention of Li Yu's visit to Dayu with the mission.

But in fact, the two had known each other early because of their marriage, and they seemed to have a good relationship.Not only did Li Yu live in the house, the two even spent a long time in the study in the front yard every night, and they didn't know what they were plotting.

Qi Qingxi didn't know that the person she was talking about was plotting something, and at some point he returned to the room and was standing behind her.

"What are you thinking about?"

She was startled by the sudden sound coming from her ear, and then a pair of arms embraced her, scaring her into a shudder.

After seeing who was coming, she stretched out her hand and thumped him lightly: "I was scared to death, no matter how I walked, I didn't make any sound."

Gu Yu raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "It is obvious that Madam is too focused on things, so that I opened the door so loudly and walked in without hearing it."

In fact, Gu Yu thought that Qi Qingxi had already fallen asleep, so he deliberately walked into the room lightly, only to find that she was standing in front of the coffee table holding a water glass in a daze.

Gu Yu took Qi Qingxi's hand and rubbed it in his hand: "Why haven't you slept yet? What are you thinking about?"

Qi Qingxi smelled the faint scent of green bamboo on Gu Yu's body, and she knew it was the smell of green bamboo scented soap that he was used to. She never thought that he would wash himself in the front yard before coming back.

Qi Qingxi intentionally teased him, and sighed on purpose: "I don't know whether it's because I'm too unattractive or that Mr. Li is too attractive. As soon as my husband returned to the mansion, he went straight to Mr. Li's residence, and he came back at a late hour."

With a smile in her eyes, Gu Yu slowly slid her hands towards Qi Qingxi's waist, pinched her lightly, and whispered in her ear: "The lady underestimated herself too much."

The heat of Gu Yu's words sprayed on her ears, and there was a numb itching in her ears. The next second, she exclaimed, and was picked up by Gu Yu and placed on the bed.

Gu Yu turned sideways and extinguished the candle on the incense table in front of the bed, and the room suddenly became pitch black.

Qi Qingxi originally wanted to ask Gu Yu something, but the heat around her gradually made her confused, and finally she couldn't remember a single word...

The hibiscus tent warms up the spring night.

The next day, Qi Qingxi woke up after tossing and turning, the sky was already bright, and she saw Gu Yu sitting on the low stool in front of the bed and staring at her with a smile on her lips.

She remembered that today was the day of the court, why was it so late that Gu Yu was still sitting at home, if he had no important business in the past, he would never miss the court meeting.

"Aren't you going to court today?" Qi Qingxi asked strangely.

Gu Yu clenched his hands into fists and coughed softly on his mouth: "My husband has already gone to court, and he walked around the Yamen, come back to find..."

Gu Yu originally wanted to say that he came back to discuss things with Li Yu, but he remembered what she said last night, so he decided not to mention Li Yu.

Qi Qingxi didn't care about what Gu Yu was doing when she came back, she just thought that she was late again, and today she originally planned to reorganize the account books on hand.

Now that Yun Ming has been selected as a Jinshi, he will be awarded an official position in a few days. Even if he passes the selection of Shu Jishi and stays in the capital, he is considered to have stepped into the officialdom, and he always needs to go out to socialize.

What's more, Yunming will be in the weak crown in two years, and it should be time to start a family. The account book that Guo Shi gave her before, just took advantage of this moment to share the details with the three brothers and sisters.

Thinking about these things, Qi Qingxi quickly lifted the quilt to get up, get dressed and wash, and called Sequoia to come over and ask her to call Yufeng to see her.

Yufeng is Gu Liang's wife who has never been married. She has been helping her manage the accounts in the mansion for a long time, and has never made any mistakes. Moreover, Yufeng has learned many business things from Gu Liang's grandfather before, so Qi Qingxi She planned to ask Yufeng to help her sort out the properties of their brothers and sisters.

It is not difficult to calculate the accounts and clear the industry. What is difficult is which of these industries are profitable and which are loss-making, and which are not obvious at present but have great prospects. There are many twists and turns. Curved around.

There is a specialization in the art industry, so it is better to find a professional to help you feel at ease.

After Qi Qingxi finished dressing, she turned around and found that Gu Yu was sitting outside drinking tea and reading a book. She was a little surprised: "Why are you still here?"

Gu Yu frowned when she heard this, put down the book in her hand and read it: "Why does Madam not want to see me so much?"

Qi Qingxi walked over with a smile, and put his hands on Gu Yu's shoulders: "Where, I wish I could see my husband at twelve hours a day, but I guess my husband is going back to the mansion to discuss things with Mr. Li right now?" ?”
