After being married off, she was favored by the powerful official

Seeing that Gu Jin didn't say anything, the man felt a little unsure and said hurriedly, "I'm not afraid of hardship. As long as you can give me a place to stay, I can do anything, even let me clean the chamber pot.

Of course, if you have that kind of need for me, that’s not impossible…”

Gu Jin ignored him and only asked, "Are you short of money?"

The man smiled bitterly, "Do you think I don't need anything?"

Gu Jin lowered his eyes in deep thought.

This person has absolutely no moral principles for the sake of money. It would be troublesome if she fell into the hands of her rival. It would be better to keep this weirdo under her own nose for the time being.

Thinking of this, Gu Jin had an idea in mind. He raised his chin and looked at the man and said, "Are you a scholar?"

"You really have a keen eye for talent. I came to the capital to participate in the next year's spring examination. Unfortunately, my family is too poor, and my money ran out before I could reach the capital.

But don't worry, I will do my best to repay you when I graduate from high school!"

Seeing the man's eager and flattering expression, Gu Jin found it hard to imagine such a man serving as an official in the same court as Xie Ran.

"I have opened a new school and I am in need of a teacher."

The man's eyes lit up, "Teaching and educating people is exactly my strong point!"

"You just need to teach the children to read and write. As for how to behave... I will beat you if you dare to say any nonsense!"

man:"……"

The man stood up by holding on to the wall, and brushed off the dust on his clothes like those noblemen did. As a result, the flying dust choked Gu Jin so much that he couldn't open his eyes.

The man stopped awkwardly, took a half step back and bowed, saying, "I am Shen Wuji, thank you Madam for taking me in."

"Shen Wuji? That's a good name."

Gu Jin took in Shen Wuji with the mentality that she would rather cause trouble to others than let others bother her, but she didn't know that this name would be famous throughout the capital in the near future.

Yongchang Houfu.

As soon as Marquis Yongchang came to the court, he rushed straight to Su's yard in anger. As soon as he stepped into the house, he saw a little boy of five or six years old sitting next to Su, and Su was gently peeling walnuts for him to eat.

Marquis Yongchang paused and rubbed his eyes in disbelief.

Which one is this? He doesn't remember having such a son?

Shitou looked up and saw the stern-looking Yongchang Marquis. He screamed in fear and hurriedly hid behind Su.

Only then did Su notice Marquis Yongchang and frowned unconsciously.

Sure enough, she wasn't the only one who would be frightened.

The facial features of Marquis Yongchang are regular and stern, but he has a beard and looks too majestic, which makes people feel intimidated.

"Whose family is he from?"

Su pulled Shitou over and gently stroked his head, "This is Ran'er..."

"I knew this rebellious son was not a good person. He actually hid such a big illegitimate child!"

Su glanced at him and said coldly, "This child's parents are all gone. It was Ran'er who saved him."

"It's okay, Xiao Shitou. Your aunt is here, don't be afraid!" Because Gu Jin refused to be promoted, Su asked Xiao Shitou to call her aunt.

Yongchang Hou felt a little embarrassed when he realized that he had misunderstood Xie Ran. He coughed twice and turned to Xiao Shitou and said, "Don't you know how to call someone?"

Little Stone looked at Yongchang Hou pitifully and whispered, "Hello, Grandpa."

Yongchang Marquis: “?”

Su couldn't help laughing and stuffed two pieces of sugar cake into Little Stone's hand, "What a good boy, go out and play!"

Watching the back of Xiao Shitou running away, Su lowered her lips and said indifferently, "My Lord, what's the matter?"

Yongchang Hou thought, isn't this his yard? Does he have to come here for something?

But thinking of a certain rebellious son, he couldn't help but ask, "Do you know what good things Xie Ran, the rebellious son, has done?"

Yesterday, Xie Ran hung Xie Run on the city wall in such a high-profile manner, which would naturally attract criticism from the censors today. In addition, the fact that Ma went to the Wanfo Temple alone caused even more speculation among the ministers.

The censors accused Xie Ran of fratricide, which was damaging to the emperor's reputation, and hoped that Emperor Hui'an would punish him.

Emperor Hui'an was also very puzzled and asked Xie Ran why he did this.

In the end, Xie Ran did not explain, but just looked at Yongchang Hou meaningfully, with forbearance, resentment and a bit of disappointment in his eyes.

Before Marquis Yongchang could react, the ambiguous and smiling eyes of the crowd came at him from all directions. Emperor Hui'an even called him over when the court was dismissed, hinting that he should pay attention to the peace of his family.

"Now everyone thinks that Ma and I have an affair. My reputation in this life has been ruined by that rebellious son!" The key is that he knew they had misunderstood something, but he couldn't explain it if they didn't mention it, otherwise it would be like admitting guilt.

Marquis Yongchang thought that if he told Su about it, she would take the initiative to promise to persuade Xie Ran, but after hearing it, she just lowered her head and sipped tea.

"You don't have anything to say?"

Su pursed her lips, pondered for a while, raised her eyes and asked: "So, when did you two start?"

Yongchang Marquis: “…”

This day is really unbearable!
