Princess, he is rich enough to rival the country

"Eldest Young Master...Big Brother?" After Gu Yanshu was a little dazed, he finally realized who Bai Shu was talking about about Eldest Young Master.

Seeing that after he mentioned the young master, his young master is no longer the same as before, jumping like a cat whose tail has been stepped on, Bai Shu dared to say what he just heard:

"Yes, I heard that the young master sent a letter back a few days ago, saying that he is already on his way back. Counting the days, if there are no accidents, we should arrive today."

"I see." Gu Yanshu nodded slightly, while recalling the information about the Young Master of the Hou Mansion in his heart.

The young master Bai Shu mentioned was named Gu Yanli, he was the eldest son of the Marquis of Cheng En's mansion, and also the brother of Gu Xiaogong with the same father and mother, and was three years older than Gu Xiaogong.

It's just that the relationship between the elder brother of the same mother and Young Master Gu is not close.

In Gu Xiaogongzi's childhood memory, there is very little Gu Yanli.

When Young Master Gu grew up, the meeting with Gu Yanli gradually became more frequent.

But I don't know if it's because he thinks Young Master Gu is the culprit who killed Mrs. Gu or for some other reason, every time Gu Yanli faces Young Master Gu, he always looks cold.

How can Young Master Gu, who has always wanted the wind and the rain at Aunt Chang's place since he was a child, be able to stand this?

So after meeting Gu Yanli a few times, Young Master Gu is no longer willing to play with this elder brother.

In addition, Aunt Chang also didn't want to see the situation of Gu Xiaogong and Gu Yanli's brothers and sisters respecting each other, so she often told Gu Xiaogong some messy information about Gu Yanli.

Gradually, Young Master Gu gradually became estranged from Gu Yanli.

It is already extremely polite to say that Gu Xiaogongzi and Gu Yanli are not close.

Because in the past two years, it's good that Gu Xiaogongzi and Gu Yanli don't meet each other, but once they meet, it's like a needlepoint.

Gu Yanli couldn't get used to Gu Xiaogong walking around cats and dogs and doing nothing all day long. When he saw Gu Xiaogong, he would inevitably reprimand him.

And Young Master Gu didn't like this elder brother at all, and when he saw his attitude again, he felt even more displeased.

In this way, the brothers often quarreled without saying a word.

In Young Master Gu's mind, who is the most annoying person in the Marquis of Cheng'en's mansion, if Gu Yanli is ranked second, I am afraid that no one can rank first.

Because he doesn't like this elder brother, Young Master Gu can be said to be indifferent to Gu Yanli on weekdays, so naturally he doesn't go back to pay attention to whether Gu Yanli has left the house or not.

These days when Gu Yanshu was convalescing, he didn't see the brother in his memory come to visit him. He originally thought that the relationship between the two brothers had become so bad. Who would have thought that it was because Gu Yanli wasn't in the mansion at all a few days ago?

"Master."

"I have seen the young master."

……

Just as Gu Yanshu was recalling all kinds of information about Gu Yanli in his heart, there were faint voices of servants greeting him outside the door.

Afterwards, a man in black clothes with a livid face walked in quickly from the door. This is not Gu Yanli, the young master of the Hou Mansion that Bai Shu just mentioned, but who is it?

After realizing who it was, Gu Yanshu carefully observed this young master of the Hou Mansion who was extremely unpleasant in Gu Xiaogong's memory.

It has to be said that Gu Yanli and Gu Xiaogong are worthy of being brothers of the same mother. From the appearance alone, the two are [-]% similar.

It's just that Gu Xiaogong's appearance is more delicate and soft, like a handicraft crafted by a top craftsman, while Gu Yanli is a little rough, and his brows are more heroic than Gu Xiaogong.

To sum it up, in the eyes of outsiders, a weak nobleman like Gu Xiaogong and a tough guy like Gu Yanli can punch ten of them with one punch.

"go!"

While Gu Yanshu was still observing Gu Yanli, he saw Gu Yanli stepping forward, pulling Gu Yanshu's wrist, and pulling Gu Yanshu outward.

Following Gu Yanli's strength, Gu Yanshu took a few steps outside before realizing it. He hastily exerted a little force to stabilize his figure. After stopping, he had time to speak:

"where to?"

Feeling Gu Yanshu's resistance, Gu Yanli was afraid of hurting Gu Yanli, so he could only stop:

"You can go wherever you want! Before I come back, I have already arranged people at the gate of the city. I will take you out of the mansion in a while, and then you will leave directly. You don't have to worry about the expenses on the way. I have already arranged everything. I also put some gold and silver coins, and I will give you some silver notes later, enough for you to live comfortably for the rest of your life, and you can just leave Tianqi Kingdom, the most important thing is that you don’t come back after you leave..."

Hearing this, Gu Yanshu understood even if he was a fool:

Gu Yanli wanted him to escape marriage!

Escaping from marriage, or escaping from the marriage that the emperor personally bestowed upon him, how much courage and perseverance did it take for an ancient man to make such a decision?

Rao Gu Yanshu did not expect that this elder brother who had never given Young Master Gu a good face would actually be able to do this for him.

Where does this mean that he doesn't like to care about the young master?

I'm afraid that in such a big Cheng'en Marquis's Mansion, no one cares more about Young Master Gu than Gu Yanli!

Since the apocalypse, Gu Yanshu, who was used to father and son brothers turning against each other for a small benefit, realized this, an indescribable emotion welled up in his chest, which made his eyes a little sour.

But Gu Yanshu quickly suppressed the sourness in his eyes, directly interrupted Gu Yanli's next words, and asked softly:

"If I just leave like this, what will you do?"

"What should we do?" Gu Yanli, who was full of thoughts about how to let his younger brother escape from marriage, did not realize the meaning of Gu Yanshu's words for a moment.

"Resisting the decree and not obeying it is a serious crime against the nine clans. If I just leave like this, what will you do?" Gu Yanshu repeated what he had just said.

After hearing Gu Yanshu's words, Gu Yanli's face showed a trace of hesitation at first, but he quickly became firm again:

"Your Majesty is benevolent, and you may blame him for it, but you are definitely not right to kill the nine clans of Marquis Cheng's Mansion because of this incident. Don't think too much about it. The most important thing is to take care of yourself. Let's go first!"

"What if?" Gu Yanshu didn't move, looking at Gu Yanli with a serious expression.

"Even if there is a chance, it is the Marquis's House asking for it..."

As soon as this matter was mentioned, Gu Yanli's tone was full of uncontrollable anger, obviously he was already dissatisfied with the Marquis of Cheng'en's mansion.

Even so, Gu Yanshu couldn't just walk away like this:

"Fourth from the father's family, third from the mother's family, and second from the wife's family... The Marquis of Cheng'en's mansion is not innocent, so isn't the Mu's mansion also innocent? Brother, just bear it?"

Mu Mansion is the mother's home of Mrs. Gu, the biological mother of Gu Yanshu and Gu Yanli.

Sure enough, after hearing "Mu's Mansion", the expression on Gu Yanli's face gradually changed, and the force on Gu Yanshu's wrist gradually disappeared.

Feeling the change of strength on the wrist, Gu Yanshu knew that Gu Yanli had calmed down.

Sure enough, the next moment, Gu Yanli let go of Gu Yanshu's wrist, obviously he had given up on the idea of ​​letting Gu Yanshu escape from marriage.

Even if he gave up this idea, it is not difficult to see from Gu Yanli's expression that he is still a little unwilling.

At the same time, Gu Yanli felt that the anger in his heart had nowhere to go, so he endured and endured, but in the end he still couldn't hold it back. Looking at Gu Yanshu, he said with hatred:

"I told you to stay away from that vicious woman Chang Xinyan before, but you didn't listen! You still thought she was a good thing, calling her aunt every time to make out! Do you know how powerful it is now?"

"Understood..." Although Gu Yanshu had nothing to do with what Young Master Gu did, he could only endure it.

And at this time, Gu Yanshu finally understood why Young Master Gu disliked his elder brother so much.

Knowing that my younger brother is going to marry a man soon after being given a marriage, not only does he not comfort him, but he also preaches.

Think again about Gu Yanli's previous lectures to Gu Yanshu, although most of them were for the good of Gu Yanshu, but the words were really a bit ugly, how could a spoiled child like Gu Xiaogong be able to tell who was under Gu Yanli's scolding care?

Just when Gu Yanshu thought that Gu Yanli would keep on preaching like in Young Master Gu's memory, he found that after Gu Yanli finished speaking, he stopped talking.

Looking up, he saw Gu Yanli staring at him in a daze.

Just when Gu Yanshu was hesitating whether to make a sound, he felt a flash in front of his eyes, and then he was pulled into a warm embrace.

After only hearing a short sigh, Gu Yanli's deep comfort came from his ears:

"I'm sorry for you."

The sourness that was suppressed by Gu Yanshu just now hit Gu Yanshu's eyes again at this moment.

"It's all because the elder brother is useless..." Compared with Gu Hongji's fake fatherly love, Gu Yanli seemed to have a lot more real feelings, and his tone was full of unwillingness and self-blame.

It is not difficult to see that if Gu Yanli has a way, even if he is risking his life, he will go to let the emperor take back his life.

At this moment, Gu Yanshu couldn't bear it anymore:

"Actually, there is nothing wrong with marrying the third prince."

"What?" Gu Yanli never expected that his younger brother would say such a thing, and even thought that he had an auditory hallucination.

"I said, actually there is nothing wrong with marrying the third prince." Gu Yanshu withdrew from Gu Yanli's arms and repeated what he said just now.

Gu Yanli observed Gu Yanshu's expression carefully, and found that Gu Yanshu was neither angry nor forceful, so he knew that Gu Yanshu meant what he said.

Quickly asked "Why do you say that?"

Even if Gu Yanli doesn't ask, Gu Yanshu still has to talk to Gu Yanli,

Lest this elder brother who loves his younger brother wholeheartedly do something irreversible under self-blame:

"If there is no such marriage decree, with my penniless appearance, I guess I can only eat at home and wait to die, and then I will spend my whole life in mediocrity."

As soon as Gu Yanshu said this, Gu Yanli's face darkened:

"You know now that you have no strengths?"

It's no wonder that Gu Yanli is like this. In the past, Gu Yanli reprimanded Young Master Gu many times because he didn't study well, but Young Master Gu always listened to him with his left ear and out his right ear, and never listened to his heart.

"Ahem, cough, yes, I did it all myself." Gu Yanshu coughed a few times, and finally took the scapegoat left by Young Master Gu.

In order to prevent Gu Yanli from continuing to preach, Gu Yanshu hastily continued what he just said:

"But after being given a marriage, it's different... If I marry the prince and become the concubine, I will directly become a relative of the emperor. No matter how many people struggle for a lifetime, I will be able to have a relationship!"

"This……"

Gu Yanli frowned, as if he felt that something Gu Yanshu said was weird, but he didn't know how to refute it.

"And ah! The third prince will be crowned king soon. At that time, one person will be under ten thousand people. Once I get married, I will be a princess, and that will be two people under ten thousand people. Apart from the marriage bestowed by the emperor, where else can I find such a princess?" Kind of a good thing?"

Gu Yanshu didn't intend to give Gu Yanli a chance to think at all, and continued his impassioned speech. After he finished speaking, he didn't forget to ask a question,

"Brother, are you right?"

"Yes... yes," Gu Yanli nodded first, but quickly realized, looking at Gu Yanshu, his eyes widened, "What is right? You are a man, how can you have such an idea?"

Tsk, I didn't expect this to be a little tricky.

Gu Yanshu sighed softly in his heart, then applied for a suspense, and looked at Gu Yanli:

"Brother, let me ask you, why do we study literature and martial arts? Is it just to enter the court and become an official?"

Although I don't know why the younger brother who was still talking about bestowing marriage just now suddenly mentioned the original intention of learning literature and martial arts, Gu Yanli still nodded along with Gu Yanshu's words:

"Yes."

"Then why did we enter the court as officials? Is it just to share the emperor's worries and get ahead?" Gu Yanshu asked again.

Learning martial arts and selling them to the emperor's family, Gu Yanli nodded without thinking:

"Yes."

"Then let me ask my brother, now there is a method that can both relieve the emperor's worries and stand out from the crowd. Do you want to do it or not?" Gu Yanshu continued to ask.

"Of course." Gu Yanli still nodded, everyone in the world should make such a choice.

"Then what is the emperor worried about now? Is it the marriage of the third prince?" Gu Yanshu asked immediately.

This time, although Gu Yanli felt a little hesitant, he nodded after thinking for a while.

"……Yes."

After all, who in Yanjing City doesn't know?As the third prince grew older, the emperor was worried about his marriage for a long time.

Gu Yanli nodded, and Gu Yanshu clapped his hands together, then looked at his elder brother:

"So! Brother, take a look, will marrying the third prince not only relieve the emperor's worries, but also make him stand out?"

"That's right." Gu Yanli, who had been surrounded by Gu Yanshu for a long time and became a little dizzy, nodded directly without thinking about it.

After nodding his head, although Gu Yanli sensed something was wrong, but looking up at Gu Yanshu's smiling face, he seemed to understand his inner thoughts:

It seems that the younger brother is indeed willing to marry the third prince.

After realizing this, Gu Yanli just pretended that he didn't react at all, and stopped talking.

And when he hadn't heard Gu Yanli's rebuttal for a long time, Gu Yanshu secretly heaved a sigh of relief:

No matter what Gu Yanli was thinking in his heart now, he was fooled at that time.

Otherwise, Gu Yanshu is still a little embarrassed to say the truth like "It's not to relieve the emperor's worries, nor is it to get ahead, he just made the mistakes that every man should make, and he is greedy for the third prince's body".
