The moonlight is gentle, like a white jade plate hanging high.
After leaving Yunmiao Inn, Guiliu went to a bookstore and bought a few erotic novels, intending to savor them at leisure. The bookstore owner was also a fellow-minded person, and they exchanged a few erotic verses with each other. Then the bookstore owner led him into a small room, which was filled with all kinds of erotic novels, among which There are many unique copies of famous works. However, Geiliu still felt a little pity, because he had read all these books, each book at least five times, and he had already memorized the contents and plots of some books by heart.
In the end, he only bought a book with a relatively shallow impression. After leaving the bookstore, he took the book into an ordinary inn and asked the store if a woman in a pink dress had booked a room. After receiving a positive answer, he went straight upstairs. Went there and finally saw Taozhi making tea in the room.
Geiliu sat down at the table, took two bites of pastry, and said casually: "Taozhi, do you think my mother will be angry?"
Taozhi was very smart and could guess his master's thoughts. He did not stop making tea and said softly: "Your Highness is here with this slave, but his heart is always with her."
Guiliu did not hide it and whispered to himself: "A prince who has been ruined a long time ago still cares about this reputation? She is a poor woman. Her father was taken away, her family is gone, and her fate is like a duckweed without roots. It is difficult to move forward in this muddy world. When I was traveling in Longzhou, thousands of miles away from home, I often felt empty inside. Especially when I saw the lights on and the house closed, I would always feel sad and sad, and suddenly I wanted to go home. I I have a family, my parents love me and love me, but what about her? She has nothing, no one to rely on, no one to care for and no one to love, how will she feel in her heart? If anyone can empathize, it must be Me. When I ran away from home after stabbing myself, I still felt helpless, abandoned by the whole world, and that my life was rough and my life was like duckweed. That kind of pain made my hair white and made my heart feel sad. Damn it, I really don’t dare to try it a second time.”
Gui Liu rubbed her cheek and said softly: "I'm very glad that she was able to find me, and I'm also very glad that I was able to meet her again. I know that she was just like me at that time, so when I thought about it all, I I felt so sorry for her, I really felt sorry for her, so I made up my mind to rescue her father no matter what, no matter what the cost. My hometown is my hometown, and I want to become her hometown. In the end, I I just want her to know that Wang Gongqiao is no longer here, but I, Gei Liu, am always here."
The white-haired man rested his chin on the table, exhausted.
The Wu family in Qingqian City was in charge of the entire city's financial power, and its old owner was a third-rank official in the imperial court. He held a high position and played a decisive role. Therefore, the Wu family remained strong and prosperous for hundreds of years.
Nowadays, the imperial examination is implemented in the world, and the method of selecting officials no longer pays attention to family status and family background, and the powerful families will also disappear. However, there are still a few powerful and wealthy families who still retain the grace of their ancestors. It can be said that their children become officials as easily as walking on flat ground. The Wu family in Qingqian City is one of them.
Although the Wu family was in a wealthy family, unlike the powerful families who all lived in the capital, they were extremely prominent and had great influence. There are thousands of wealthy families in the capital, but less than one in ten can compete with them. Emperor Gui Qi even made an unintentional remark that he would ask the prince to come to propose marriage and use the whole world as a betrothal gift to marry the daughter of the Wu family. Although it was just a joke, the government and the public were shocked for a while, and many dignitaries came together with him. The Wu family has made good friends, and some have even settled their old feuds, even showing some humility and humility.
It is said that like father, like son. The head of the Wu family is the censor of Jiangnan Province with a purple ribbon and gold seal. He was praised by the emperor himself as "a man of righteousness and a breeze on his sleeves." However, the son of the head of the family, the eldest son of the Wu family, then He is a notorious dandy, the third most dandy in the world, only behind His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the grandson of the Prime Minister.
The popular behavior of His Highness the Prince is the same, especially relying on his prominent family background, Su Xi did some things of robbing women from the public and molesting them in the street. As for the number of beauties hidden in the golden house, no one knows. There are eight oirans in Chunxian Tower, each of whom is famous and has his own master. One of them is particularly good at playing the piano. He is a famous beauty on the beauty list and belongs to the eldest son of the Wu family.
The dandy eldest son of the Wu family, unlike His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, is gentle and gentle on the surface. He has a violent temper and is moody. Even the Chunxian Tower in the sky has to worship him as a Buddha. A few years ago, in a romantic place like Chunxian Tower, a major incident was raised to the court, and the Queen was furious.
Here's the thing. When the Beauty Review was launched, the famous woman from Chunxian Tower ranked first, and the Empress personally commented on it, which carried great weight and was said to be a disaster for the country and the people. So the Wu family's dandy, regardless of any obstruction, insisted on climbing to the fifth floor of Chunxian Tower, hoping to catch a glimpse of her beauty. But in the end, Chunxianlou stopped him at the cost of breaking his face. I thought the matter was over, but the next day, the dandy came back with a vengeance, bringing with him a bunch of servants that looked like vicious dogs and domestic dogs, as well as many martial arts masters, making it clear that he wanted to force his way into Chunxian Tower.
In the end, His Royal Highness happened to be passing by, and the matter was ended. The incident became more and more serious, so even though the court was the place where state affairs were discussed and it was inappropriate to discuss romantic affairs, the empress was extremely angry and insisted on bringing the matter to the table. Finally, His Majesty the Emperor personally gave orders to the head of the Wu family to personally punish his descendants. Chunxian Tower was fined with Yimin's surplus income due to poor performance.
I heard that the head of the Wu family was extremely angry and threatened to kill this unfilial son who had caused trouble. However, the old head of the Wu family was eager to protect him, and the servants and maids of the Wu family "genuinely" begged for mercy. The final result was the arrogant and arrogant eldest son. , was imprisoned for a month, that's all.
And news came out that this dandy boy who was intoxicated in Chunxian Tower day and night had actually abandoned the world-famous courtesan, spent thousands of gold to buy a bloody BMW, and went straight to Qingqian. As for the reason, no one knows it, and it is naturally for the beauty staying at Yunmiao Inn.
"The Dandy of the Wu family is coming back." As soon as this news came out, it immediately caused a sensation in the whole city. Throughout Qingqian City, people are in panic and the streets are deserted. At night, no one leaves home, and shops close early. To exaggerate, it's as if a curfew has been implemented, similar to the Green Belt City that is a private fiefdom.
The Qingqian Wu family has a magnificent inner hall with eight chairs arranged in order. The eight people sitting there are all prominent figures in the Wu family. Some of them have made great contributions to the temple, guiding the country, and some have made outstanding achievements in local affairs.
The Wu family has many affairs, and unless it is a major matter, they will not convene for discussion. It has been half a year since the last time we discussed matters in the inner hall. As luck would have it, the eldest son of the Wu family happened to have stayed in Chunxian Tower for half a year.
On the main seat, the man looked around, his brows filled with gloom, silently angry. He is the current head of the Wu family, Wu Peixian.
He spoke slowly, with a heavy voice, "You must all know the news. My unlucky son is coming back again. Where he is going and what he is doing, everyone knows as well as I do."
One of them stood up tremblingly and said respectfully: "The old slave boldly said that the woman is the daughter of the Wang family's criminal minister. She has a special status and is a world-famous beauty. It is very easy for the world to notice. I am afraid that the young master's actions will It will cause trouble. According to what I see, it is better to send someone to escort the woman out of the city immediately and let her hide for a while. This way, the young master's thoughts will be settled and trouble will be avoided. "
Wu Peixian sighed, waved his hand and said: "I thought so at first, but it was useless. I have sent people to Yunmiao Inn many times. The woman was stubborn and refused to leave even though she had clearly explained the pros and cons of the matter."
Wu Peixian suddenly stood up, glanced at everyone, and said in a deep voice: "I am not here to ask you to help me solve my problems. My son has always been lawless and dared to anger His Majesty and the Queen. Naturally, he can't think of anything. As for any good solution, we can only take it one step at a time. But regardless of this matter, I, Wu Peixian, have something to say that I would like to kindly remind everyone here."
His eyes suddenly turned cold, "A few years ago, he, Wu Junzhi, caused trouble to the court and disgraced the Wu family. I came back from Jiangnan Road in a hurry. If you hadn't stopped me, I would have killed my son. But what do you think? , How can he, a playboy, be so arrogant and domineering?"
In the inner hall, there was deathly silence.
Wu Peixian used the tongs to stir the charcoal fire in the basin, raised his head, looked around at everyone present, and sneered, "More than 20 slaves and vicious dogs, and more than 20 martial arts masters, surrounded Chunxian Tower, what a huge battle." . Rather than being so angry that I wanted to chop him with a knife, I wanted to clear out the Wu family and kill those who helped the tyranny. They felt that Wu Junzhi was my eldest son, Wu Peixian, and would definitely take over the Wu family in the future, so they took over the Wu family. The flames are attached to the power, and the slaves bow their knees.”
The tea bowl on the table was picked up and smashed into pieces with a bang. Wu Peixian narrowed his eyes and said slowly: "Who said I would hand over the position of head of the Wu family to him?"
As soon as these words came out, it was like thunder exploding.
Everyone present suddenly widened their eyes with horror on their faces.
Is this upright and awe-inspiring?
This is extermination of relatives for justice!
Wu Peixian picked up the broken porcelain pieces on the ground with a smile, said the last words, and then walked out of the inner hall.
Those words put everyone on pins and needles.
"Since you are not upright, then your body will be shattered to pieces."
That night, Wu Peixian boarded the passenger ship again and went to his post in Jiangnan.
As usual, all matters of the Wu family, large and small, are temporarily handled by the housekeeper Xu Dezhong.
A few days later, a knight entered the city quietly, followed by several servants and maids.
He did not return to the Wu family immediately.
Instead, he galloped straight to Yunmiao Inn.
