Princess, he is rich enough to rival the country

On the second day, Gu Yanshu didn't see Qin Lu after waking up in the morning, and he didn't even need to ask, he knew that he should go to court.

On the other hand, Xingren, after seeing Gu Yanshu getting up, directly reported Qin Lu's whereabouts to him:

"The prince went to the court when he was Mao, and said that there are many trivial matters in the court recently, and he doesn't know when he will be able to go to the court, so that the princess does not have to wait for him to do morning exercises and meals."

This was the first time that Xingren spoke rashly when Gu Yanshu didn't ask.

Gu Yanshu didn't need to think about it, he knew that this should be Qin Lu's special order.

As for why...

Perhaps it was because of his rare insomnia last night, Qin Lu was afraid that he would not see anyone after he got up, so he was thinking wildly, wanting him to feel at ease.

Although many times, Gu Yanshu had thought that if Qin Lu was placed in modern times, he would definitely be awarded the title of Straight Man of Steel.

But in a situation like now, the sense of security given by the straight man of steel is really heartwarming.

The corners of Gu Yanshu's lips raised slightly, and Xiang Xingren nodded slightly:

"I see."

"What's more, the prince said before going to the court that if he has not returned to the mansion after Sishi, the princess will go to the Marquis of Chengen's mansion first, and there is no need to wait long. After the next court, he will go to the Marquis' mansion to find the princess."

Hearing what Xingren said, Gu Yanshu suddenly realized that today is the second day of the Lunar New Year.

According to Tianqi's rules, it is also the day when a married woman returns to her natal home.

Although Gu Yanshu is not a married woman, but in Tianqi's words, she is also a married woman, and she should return home today.

Such special days are usually arranged by Gu Yanshu.

Usually, when Gu Yanshu made the arrangements, Qin Lu would never think of the specialness of the day.

Unexpectedly, Gu Yanshu himself forgot this time, but Qin Lu remembered it instead.

He also heard from Xingren that Qin Lu not only remembered that he was going back home in the second year of junior high school, but also specifically explained that Xingren would prepare the gifts he needed to bring when he returned home, and for a moment he wanted to laugh.

His Royal Highness Li Wang who doesn't know the world and the world, now even starts to care about the relationship between people.

It's a pity that Qin Lu didn't return home when the time came.

Originally, Gu Yanshu wanted to wait a little longer, but it was too late to return home at Sishi, and thinking that it was close to Youshi when Qin Lu left the palace yesterday, he finally gave up and chose to go back to the Marquis Mansion alone.

When Gu Yanshu arrived at the Hou Mansion, Gu Yanli had obviously been waiting for some time.

Seeing Gu Yanshu, he hurriedly stepped forward and asked:

"Why are you here so late?"

"I wanted to wait for the prince to come back together after the court, but the eldest brother should have heard of it, there are many affairs in the court recently..."

Gu Yanshu smiled slightly, and while answering Gu Yanli's question, he did not forget to explain why Qin Lu didn't come back with him.

Of course, Gu Yanli had heard about the snow disaster in Shaocheng.

After all, a man like Cheng Enhou who only had one errand on his body was called back in the past two days. Even if he didn't want to know, it would be difficult for him.

Hearing Gu Yanshu's answer now, he naturally expressed his understanding.

What's more, for Gu Yanli, as long as he can see Gu Yanshu, it doesn't matter whether Qin Lu comes or not.

There is not much difference between Chengenhou's Mansion and what Gu Yanshu remembers.

Counting it, the brothers Gu Yanli and Gu Yanshu haven't seen each other for a while, and when they meet now, Gu Yanli naturally has a lot to say to Gu Yanshu.

First, he asked Gu Yanshu how he was doing these days, and then he talked about the palace banquet two days ago.

Gu Hongji received a post for the palace banquet two days ago, but because his official position was not high and he could not bring his family, Gu Yanli was not eligible to attend.

Gu Hongji saw that Qin Lu couldn't even say a word. After the whole banquet, he didn't even say a few words to Gu Yanshu alone.

When Gu Yanli got to this moment later, he almost didn't get overwhelmed with anger, but Gu Hongji was his father after all, so Gu Yanli couldn't say anything.

Fortunately, after hearing that the relationship between Gu Yanli and King Li was close, even the emperor liked him quite a lot, and even gave him a finger pull alone, Gu Yanli was a little relieved.

But I heard that there is a difference between what I saw and what I saw with my own eyes. Naturally, I couldn't hold back now, and asked again.

When it comes to what happened at the palace banquet, it is inevitable that the other sons of the Wen family will be mentioned.

"It's not surprising. Qing Xiao has been favored since childhood, and has a very close relationship with the other young masters of the Wen family."

Once upon a time, the brotherhood and friendship between the several young masters of the Wen family was an existence that Gu Yanli felt was out of reach and dreamed of.

"In the past, Yanshu was ignorant, which made my elder brother sad."

If Young Master Gu was still around, knowing Gu Yanli's feelings for him, he might regret it too.

"Brother is also wrong. He was too harsh on you before."

Regarding this point, Wen Qingxiao once persuaded Gu Yanli.

Gu Yanli also wanted to be gentle with Gu Yanshu.

But every time I see my younger brother being cynical, looking at him like an enemy, and turning around and being intimate with Aunt Chang, I can't help the anger in my heart.

By the time the reason came back, the two brothers had already parted ways.

After several times, the gap between the brothers became deeper and deeper, and it became difficult to repair.

Fortunately, the two have let go of the estrangement in their hearts now, and are much closer than before.

Noticing the change in Gu Yanli's eyes, Gu Yanshu felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.

When facing Qin Lu, he still didn't dare to tell the truth, let alone when facing Gu Yanli.

He couldn't imagine how much grief this elder brother would feel if he knew that his brother was no longer alive...

In the end, Gu Yanshu could only hide the truth in his heart, trying to find a way to compensate Gu Yanli in the future.

Gu Yanli did not notice Gu Yanshu's psychological changes at all.

After talking about the young masters of the Wen family, the topic naturally turned to Wen Qingxiao.

Mentioning the changes in Wen Qingxiao's body, the smile on Gu Yanli's face became a bit more obvious:

"Qing Xiao is looking more and more like before. It seems that I did nothing wrong in recommending him to you."

"What did the sixth son look like before?" Gu Yanshu was a little more curious.

"Actually, there is not much difference from now. It's just that Qing Xiao liked to laugh more before, and his personality was more cheerful."

Gu Yanli recalled for a moment, then gave the answer.

As if thinking of Wen Qingxiao's changes in recent years, a trace of regret crossed Gu Yanli's smiling face:

"Qing Xiao used to be very good at teasing people, but the person who was teased couldn't get angry with him in the end. If you had known him a few years ago, you would definitely get along with him."

"Don't the sixth son and I get along very well now?" Gu Yanshu smiled slightly, "It is impossible for people to remain the same. Compared to a few years ago, eldest brother is much calmer now?"

Sure enough, Gu Yanli's expression improved a lot, and he obviously agreed with Gu Yanshu's statement.

While talking, the topic of the two brothers turned to Aunt Chang again.

When mentioning Aunt Chang, Gu Yanli's expression became much calmer:

"After being reprimanded by my father last time, it was much quieter, and now I rarely even leave the gate of the courtyard."

Even if Gu Yanli doesn't mention it, Gu Yanshu can roughly guess it.

After all, when he returned home today, other people in the Hou Mansion must also know about it.

Even Gu Mingrong, who had always been at odds with him, didn't come to play in front of him, making him unhappy is enough to show the current situation of Aunt Chang in the Hou's Mansion.

"When Miss Tang enters the mansion, she can be quieter."

After all, Aunt Chang's small thoughts are really not enough in front of Miss Tang.

Speaking of Miss Tang who was about to enter the door, the expression on Gu Yanli's face became much more relaxed:

"It's only a month's work."

Today is the second day of the first lunar month, isn't it exactly one month until the second day of February?

Gu Yanli asked about Gu Yanshu's situation, talked about the young masters of the Wen family, and Wen Qingxiao.

They even talked about Aunt Chang and Miss Tang, but they didn't talk about themselves.

In the end, Gu Yanshu couldn't help but ask:

"What about Big Brother himself? What's your plan?"

Gu Yanli now only has the honor of a scholar who was unable to hold back Gu Hongji before he went to take the exam.

From these days of getting along, Gu Yanshu discovered that Gu Yanli is a person with great plans and ambitions.

Gu Yanli will definitely not be satisfied with the title of a mere scholar.

Sure enough, Gu Yanli seemed to have thought of something, and his expression suddenly became serious.

After a moment of silence, he finally spoke under Gu Yanshu's questioning gaze:

"The imperial court recruits soldiers every year... this year my eldest brother wants to try."

Regarding this answer, Gu Yanshu was not surprised at all.

After all, in Young Master Gu's memory, Gu Yanli was more interested in martial arts since he was a child.

Gu Yanshu even suspected that Gu Yanli might have had such an idea a long time ago, but he never put it into action because he couldn't let go of Young Master Gu.

"I don't know much about the military. If the eldest brother has already thought about it, then go."

Before saying this, Gu Yanli was already prepared that Gu Yanshu would object, but he didn't expect to hear these words:

"Yanshu supports elder brother to join the army?"

Gu Yanli had the idea of ​​joining the army not for a day or two, not even for a year or two.

As early as a few years ago, he had mentioned this matter with his father, but at that time his father refuted his idea very violently.

After all, the Marquis of Cheng'en's mansion has been engaged in literature for generations. Although it has been defeated now, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and at least there are still some connections.

But in the army, the Marquis of Cheng'en's mansion was completely blind with no foundation.

If Gu Yanli joins the army, he can only start from scratch like those ordinary people.

Gu Hongji wholeheartedly wanted to revitalize the Chengenhou Mansion and restore the Chengenhou Mansion to its former glory.

After realizing that he had no hope, he pinned all his hopes on Gu Yanli. How could he agree that Gu Yanli would not take the shortcut and choose this path with no future in sight?

On the contrary, Aunt Chang was extremely supportive of his desire to join the army.

But Gu Yanli couldn't understand what Aunt Chang had in mind.

It was nothing more than wanting him to die directly on the battlefield, so that there would be no one in the Hou's mansion who could threaten her and her son's status.

Even if he didn't die on the battlefield, as long as he dared to join the army, Aunt Chang would probably find a way to make him die on the battlefield.

After weighing the last few phases, Gu Yanli could only give up the thoughts in his heart.

Now Gu Yanshu has married Li Wang, and his life is not bad.

The backyard of Hou's Mansion will soon welcome a new mistress, and Aunt Chang may not have the energy to stare at him in the future.

When Gu Yanshu asked about his future plans, the idea of ​​joining the army came up again.

In the previous life, Gu Yanshu's parents would not restrain Gu Yanshu with thoughts such as "I am for your own good".

Gu Yanshu will naturally not use such thoughts to restrain Gu Yanli now:

"Naturally, this is the ideal of the eldest brother."

The expression on Gu Yanli's face suddenly relaxed a lot, as if he had been opened up in a chatterbox, he began to chatter with Gu Yanshu:

"Three years ago, the border war was tense. There was a large-scale recruitment by the imperial court. At that time, the elder brother wanted to go. Unexpectedly, the father would not agree with anything, and the elder brother had to give up in the end..."

When he said these words, there seemed to be light in Gu Yanli's eyes.

It has been a while since I came to Tianqi, and the time I spent with Gu Yanli is not short. It is the first time that Gu Yanshu has seen Gu Yanli so lively.

It can be seen that for the matter of joining the army, Gu Yanli is full of yearning from the bottom of his heart.

Thinking of this, Gu Yanshu's thoughts moved:

He didn't understand the affairs of Tianqi's army, but there was someone in his family who knew, and Qin Lu came to ask about it.

This old saying is good, people can't bear to repeat it.

Gu Yanshu had just thought of these years, when he heard the voice of greetings from the servants of the Hou Mansion outside the door:

"The servant has met His Highness King Li, Your Highness Wan'an."

Looking up, he saw Qin Lu walking in from the door.

Almost at a glance, Gu Yanshu could tell that Qin Lu was in a bad mood.

The non-belt is not good, it can even be regarded as extremely bad.

Since getting married, it was the first time that Gu Yanshu saw Qin Lu's face so ugly.

Immediately, he didn't care about asking about recruiting troops:

"My lord's complexion is not good, did something happen this morning?"

"No."

Touching Gu Yanshu's concerned eyes, Qin Lu suppressed the anger in his heart:

"If the concubine finishes talking with young master Gu, then go back to the mansion with me."

In a word, Gu Yanshu understood that this anger was aimed at Cheng Enhou's mansion.

But Gu Yanshu has no idea of ​​the reason.

After all, there is no sign of this matter at all, at least before going to court today, Qin Lu had no dissatisfaction with the Chengenhou Mansion.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have asked Xingren to prepare the gift he was going to bring home early.

So this is...

Gu Yanshu thought for a while, and finally set his sights on Zhi Ge who was following behind Qin Lu:

"What just happened?"

Zhi Ge cried out in his heart when he noticed Wang Hao's gaze, and now he can't wait to disappear in place.

But after meeting the eyes of the princess, Zhi Ge could only bite the bullet and say:

"When the prince first came, he met Miss Gu San in the mansion."

What Zhi Ge said was vague, but Gu Yanshu understood it.

To make Qin Luqi become like this, I'm afraid it's not just as simple as two people meeting:

"What did the third sister do?"

"This……"

Zhi Ge raised his eyes to look at Gu Yanshu, his face full of embarrassment, after thinking for a moment, he simply lowered his eyes, looked at his nose, and put on his heart.

Zhi Ge's reaction made Gu Yanshu more and more sure of his thoughts:

"Is there anything that cannot be said?"

When Zhi Ge was in a dilemma and didn't know whether to reply, Qin Lu, who had adjusted his mood, spoke in a timely manner, alleviating his dilemma:

"She stopped me, and first said a lot of inexplicable things. I didn't want to talk to him at first, but who knew that she still wanted to stick to me."

When he said this, Qin Lu's face, which had just eased up just now, sank again.

Not only Qin Lu, but also Gu Yanshu's complexion suddenly turned ugly:

"Where did she meet the prince?"

While speaking, Gu Yanshu's eyes did not forget to scan Qin Lun's body.

Gu Yanshu's reaction and attitude made Qin Lu feel a lot better:

"That's not true. It's just that when she posted it, the king kicked subconsciously, and the strength was confiscated. Miss Gu San's current situation is probably not very good. Don't blame Mr. Gu."

Knowing that Gu Mingrong hadn't succeeded, Gu Yanshu's expression immediately eased a lot.

It was Gu Yanli who showed an extremely forced smile at this time:

"It's not the prince's fault. It's because of the lax discipline of the Hou Mansion that the prince encountered such a thing. Please forgive me."

Seeing King Li's appearance when he entered the door and his attitude towards his younger brother just now, Gu Yanli thought there was something wrong between the two of them, and the younger brother reported good news but not bad, so he didn't tell him.

Just as he was about to dissuade him, he heard the words behind him.

The woman in the family had a prejudice against the foreign man and tried to seduce him. No matter which house it was placed in, it would be a huge scandal.

Gu Yanshu thought he just said that Aunt Chang thinks that Gu Mingrong has been more honest these days, but something like this happened later...

The more he thought about it, the more ugly the expression on Gu Yanli's face became.

"How can you blame elder brother for this matter? After all, Aunt Chang is not strict in discipline, and elder brother does not need to blame himself."

Gu Yanshu teased Qin Lu, motioning for him to say something too.

Knowing that Gu Yanli, the eldest brother, is special in Gu Yanshu's heart, even though Qin Lu was unhappy, he finally opened his mouth reluctantly:

"It has nothing to do with Mr. Gu, Mr. Gu should find a doctor to show Miss Gu San first."

After such a thing happened, Qin Lu naturally didn't want to stay in Chengenhou's mansion for a long time.

Seeing Qin Lu's thoughts, he also felt that it was not suitable for Qin Lu to stay in Cheng Enhou's mansion under such a situation.

In the end, he had no choice but to give up the idea of ​​eating in the Hou's mansion, bid farewell to Gu Yanli, and left in a hurry.

As soon as the front foot left the Hou Mansion, Gu Yanshu couldn't help asking:

"What did Gu Mingrong say? To make the prince so angry?"

If it's just a mere seduction and it hasn't succeeded yet, according to Qin Lu's temperament, he would be done with just one kick, and he wouldn't be able to transfer his anger to Hou Fu and Gu Yanli.

So Gu Yanshu felt that the problem was probably in Qin Lu's mouth, Gu Mingrong's inexplicable words.

Sure enough, upon hearing Gu Yanshu's question, Qin Lu stopped talking.

Even though Gu Yanshu asked twice, he didn't intend to answer.

Later, I heard Gu Yanshu said that he wanted to ask the servants of Cheng Enhou's mansion for questioning, so he reluctantly opened his mouth:

"It's nothing more than some words, the princess is a man, and the harmony of yin and yang is the right way."

Since Gu Yanshu was able to guide the storyteller to write a storybook, it proved that he had experienced a lot of bloody things before.

Immediately, he thought of what Gu Mingrong said just now, probably besides the reconciliation of yin and yang, he also talked about the issue of heirs.

But looking at Qin Lu's appearance at this time, he obviously didn't want to be entangled in what Gu Mingrong said, so Gu Yanshu pressed the words on his mind.

Gu Yanshu didn't ask any more questions, but Qin Lu was really relieved:

What Miss Gu San said just now is really not pleasant, if the princess hears it, she will definitely think about it.

He finally managed to coax the princess well in the middle of the night yesterday. If it was because of Miss Gu's few words that he failed, who would he turn to for reasoning?

Not long after Qin Lu and Gu Yanshu returned to the palace, Gu Yanli sent someone over to tell Gu Yanshu about Gu Mingrong's situation.

Gu Mingrong's current situation is indeed not good. According to the doctor, the position of Qin Lu's kick was not coincidental, it seems to have damaged Gu Mingrong's uterus, and I am afraid it will affect fertility in the future.

But regarding this point, the doctor can't be completely sure, and he has to wait until Gu Mingrong's injury has healed before making a judgment.

Although the Gu family has been ruined, it still bears the name of a marquis mansion.

When ordinary doctors diagnose and treat nobles like the Gu family, they will only say that they are very sick.

Fearing that the master's family would be angry, he dared not speak up.

Now that the doctor has said such things, then Gu Mingrong will most likely be infertile in the future.

Although Gu Yanshu knew that Gu Mingrong was injured from Qin Lu's tone when he was in the Hou Mansion, he never expected it to be so serious.

Qin Lu was not at all surprised by this result.

The person who kicked himself knew that since he said he didn't hold back his strength, he really didn't hold back his strength.

To put it another way, Qin Lu didn't think about pulling back at all.

If it wasn't for worrying about Gu Mingrong being the princess's natal family, being connected with the princess' blood and avoiding the vital point, Gu Mingrong might not even be able to save her life now.

But Qin Lu didn't know much about women, so he didn't expect that he would kick Gu Mingrong's uterus with his kick.

"I see. Send some medicinal materials to the Hou Mansion, and tell the elder brother to let the third sister take good care of her."

Aunt Chang was the murderer who killed Young Master Gu, and Gu Mingrong was Aunt Chang's daughter, and she did something like this again today.

Now that he has ended up like this, Gu Yanshu can only do this.

It was only after the person answering the question left that Gu Yanshu couldn't help looking at Qin Lu:

"Why doesn't the lord know how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade?"

Without even thinking about it, Qin Lu replied to Gu Yanshu:

"She's not a princess, why does this king treat her with pity?"

"Good job, keep it up!"

It has to be said that Qin Lu's answer made Gu Yanshu extremely satisfied.

Leaning forward, he lightly pecked on Qin Lu's lips:

"This is a reward for the prince!"

However, just when Gu Yanshu was about to retreat, he was stopped by the strength in his waist.

Looking up, he saw a pair of smiling eyes in front of him. This was the first smile that appeared on Qin Lu's face after returning from the Hou Mansion:

"Isn't the princess's reward a bit perfunctory?"

When asked this question, Qin Lu obviously didn't want Gu Yanshu to answer.

Because His Royal Highness Li Wang was dissatisfied with the reward, he directly chose to ask for it himself.

……

There is no impenetrable wall in the world, and Hou's Mansion is not as impenetrable as Prince Li's Mansion.

The lady in the house was seriously injured by being kicked, and ended up being sterile in the end, so naturally she didn't hide it from the ears of outsiders in the end.

For a while, everyone in the capital was talking about this matter, saying everything.

Some said that Gu Mingrong deserved it, and some said that Qin Lu was too harsh.

But no matter what kind of point of view everyone has in mind, everyone understands one thing:

That is to say, don't let your own daughter join His Highness Li Wang!

Qin Lu is handsome in appearance, distinguished in status, outstanding in ability and distinguished in military exploits, and is one of the most promising candidates for the reserve.

If it weren't for his fate of restraining his wife, how many honorable nobles in Beijing would want to marry their daughters to the third prince as wives.

Later, Gu Yanshu took action to break the fate of Qin Lu's wife.

In addition, during the palace banquet, Qin Lu's intimacy with Gu Yanshu and his indulgence to Gu Yanshu.

Immediately, many ministers regained their thoughts.

Even if you can't be the main concubine of Prince Li, being a side concubine, even a concubine, is a good choice in Prince Li's Mansion.

However, after Gu Mingrong's news got out, these signs that had just emerged were immediately suppressed:

What's the point if the daughter is sent in with the front foot, and the back foot is kicked so that she can't have children?

Why don't you continue to wait and see to see how the situation is before making plans.
