The two of them were polite, and the purse passed from Gu Jingzhi's hand to An Xi's. The purse was light and must be banknotes. They couldn't help but smile with satisfaction. At that moment, both the host and the guest got what they wanted.
Gu Jingzhi stood at the door and watched Angel and his entourage leave Zhongyong Hou Mansion. After returning to the front hall, the old Marquis was scolding Gu Huainan, "You are so old that you have grown into a dog. I asked you to see Angel off. You are like He looks like a fool, worse than a child like Jingzhi."
Gu Huainan lowered his head and defended in a low voice: "Father, you didn't tell me, I didn't know!"
"I didn't say it, I winked, you're blind!" The old Marquis gasped in anger, rolled up his sleeves and ran towards Gu Huainan, ready to teach him a lesson.
The old lady pulled her old son behind her and complained loudly: "You old ghost, you are just talking nonsense. My Nan'er is not as smart as you. You don't know how he knows. Besides, I was prepared in advance." Why don't you tell me what to do with Nan'er if you don't tell me about the gift?" Both the old Marquis and his wife were self-reliant on their status and did not bother to curry favor with an eunuch, so they couldn't afford to give gifts.
Seeing Gu Jingzhi coming in, he called him: "Brother, come here quickly, have you been sent away by an angel?"
Gu Jingzhi walked over and supported his grandmother, "Yes, my grandson has lived up to his fate, and the angel is very happy." This was what accepting the gift meant.
The old lady smiled and patted her second grandson's hand, "What a good boy. He is better than your grandfather and your father." She turned around and told Holly, "Go and get the things prepared for the angel!"
Later, the eldest maids Dongqing and Fanxing came out holding two trays. One had ten gold ingots neatly placed on it, and the other was a red lacquered and carved wooden box. The old lady opened the wooden box and found a piece of thin paper inside.
The old lady explained: "This is the land deed of a small village of more than 500 acres, forty miles north of the capital. Brother, you have dealt with the angel. Grandma can't let you pay, so I'll give you all this!" Dongqing and Fan Xing handed the tray to Ping An, who raised his eyes to ask for instructions from his master.
Gu Jingzhi didn't want to accept it at first, but when he heard that it was Zhuangzi in the north of the capital, he changed his mind and nodded to Ping An.
When Ping An saw it, he held the wooden box and asked Dongqing to put the tray of gold ingots on it.
Gu Jingzhi saluted his grandparents, father Song Wanru and others, bid farewell to everyone, and returned to Tingxue Xuan in peace.
Caiwei was drinking tea in the west wing room when she heard the maid and mother-in-law outside saluting the second master. She hurriedly came out to greet the master, opened the curtain for him, and then entered the upper room to wait for him to change clothes.
"Leave everything to Caiwei, go ahead and get busy!" Gu Jingzhi ordered Ping An while taking off his clothes.
The master trusted the little girl Caiwei, and Ping An was used to it. He put down the gold ingot and the wooden box, "Second Master, I will go find Manager Jiang right now. If you have nothing else to do, please excuse me." Gu Jingzhi nodded, Ping An is happy. He stepped back, and the gold ingot and wooden box he had just put down disappeared with a "whoosh".
Gu Jingzhi changed into homely clothes and lay on his side on the bed, closing his eyes and thinking. Song Wanru's father, Prince Xian, had a large village in the north of the city. After the failure of the rebellion in the 25th year of Qiantai's reign, a large amount of gold and silver, food and weapons were found in the village. Not counting, there are also letters exchanged with courtiers and generals, including a letter written by his father Gu Huainan to Zhennan Army general Zuo Ruzhou, for which he was convicted of a major crime of treason. In order to protect the Gu family, my grandfather proved his innocence. He hit a pillar and died, and his blood spattered the Jinluan Palace.
Now that he has lived again, he can no longer let his grandfather die in vain. His rebirth is too shocking and must not be told to outsiders. Caiwei and himself are both aliens, and they have an inseparable relationship by fate. They are considered to be in the same camp. , chat with her, so as not to feel depressed and unable to relax.
Gu Jingzhi opened his eyes and glanced at Caiwei. The little girl was sitting next to the charcoal basin and dozing off.
"Caiwei, how old were you when you were hit by that car?"
Caiwei replied lazily: "It's a big truck, you don't have one here. Second Master, where we are, a man's salary and a woman's age are personal privacy, and you can't pry around."
"Huh! Caiwei, come here!" The tone was harsh, and the ancestor was not happy again. Caiwei put on a smile, stood up quickly, ran to the bed in one breath, bent down and said respectfully: "Second Master, I said the wrong thing. , What kind of privacy is not private? If the master wants to know, the slave will not dare to hide it even if he is beaten to death!" He added in his mind, if he dared to hide it, he would be beaten to death.
Gu Jingzhi nodded expressionlessly and asked her to continue, "I was over thirty when I came to this world."
"So, you are thirty-one years old, you have a lot of children, and you are a woman. How can you be so unstable!" Gu Jingzhi guessed four years old, and Caiwei was secretly happy at first, but when she heard He said that he was a woman with many children, and couldn't help but defend: "Second Master, our place is different from here. There are many unmarried people in their thirties, and slaves are still young ladies!"
Gu Jingzhi didn't care whether she was a young girl or a married woman. Since she was in her thirties, she was not an ignorant child and had some life experience. She could have a chat together, so she no longer hesitated and said: "Caiwei , you have a small world." Caiwei corrected with a smile, "Second Master, we call it space."
"Well, you have space. I can see your space. I am reborn in this life because of your space, which means that the two of us are inseparable." Gu Jingzhi actually had no intention of letting Caiwei leave him and had been coveting her space for a long time. If you can’t take it for yourself, then hold the owner of the space in your hands.
Caiwei agreed with what he said. She has read many space novels, ranging from one thousand to eight hundred. None of them mentioned that outsiders can watch her own space. "Second Master, I also see that we are not destined to be together." shallow."
"Bring out the wooden box just now!" As soon as Gu Jingzhi finished speaking, the wooden box appeared on the bed. He opened the box and took out the land deed. "This is a village in the north of the capital. Prince Xian's village is also there."
Seeing the doubt in Caiwei's eyes, she explained: "Prince Xian is the father of my aunt Song Wanru. He will rebel next year. There are letters from officials in Zhuangzi, including one written by my father."
Caiwei understood, "Oh! So the house of Zhongyong Hou was confiscated and exiled! Then steal the letter back. Aren't we safe!"
Gu Jingzhi was very satisfied with the word "we" and shook his head: "The letter must be stolen. Without the letter, our guilt will be lighter, but we will still not be able to escape exile."
Caiwei was puzzled, "Why! By the way, your aunt is the daughter of Prince Xian, a member of the Nine Clan who rebelled against thieves. It was popular in ancient times to implicate the Nine Clan, so let her go!"
Gu Jingzhi still shook his head, "Prince-given marriages do not allow divorce."
Caiwei decided hard, "Kill her, poison her, crash her car, fall into the water, whatever."
"The most poisonous thing is a woman's heart!" Gu Jingzhi sighed with emotion, and shook his head helplessly, "There are a few talents who are exiled together. I want to take them for my own use, and I think the Gu family will stay in the north and never come back. Go to the north. It must be done. "
Then why are you telling me, your Gu family will be confiscated and exiled! Caiwei spread her hands and was speechless.
Gu Jingzhi repeated again, "The letter must be stolen back. There is a large amount of gold and silver in Prince Xian's village, so we must not let it go." After saying that, he looked at the little girl's expression coldly.
Caiwei's eyes lit up as expected, and she said excitedly: "Second Master, Master, Prince Xian is a traitor, and everyone can take ill-gotten gains!"
"You want to take it?" Gu Jingzhi asked in a deep voice.
"I think!" Caiwei nodded with eyes curled up.
Gu Jingzhi pretended to be helpless and said: "Since you want the ill-gotten wealth, I will reluctantly take you there. I want the letter."
"I want gold and silver treasures!" Caiwei was excited.
