Gu Cheng was very dissatisfied with Yan Zui and Gu Xuan's abandonment of him. After catching up with the two, he kept accusing them, especially targeting Yan Zui.
After all, it was Yanzhu who dragged Gu Xuan away. If we really wanted to say what was wrong, of course it was his fault that was the biggest.
However, Yan Zui ignored him at all and just waited for Gu Cheng to curse and never have any quiet time.
He was busy getting rid of the book on hand. Not long after entering the house, he separated from Gu Xuan and returned to his house.
Gu Xuan went straight to find her father.
Han Xianzong and the ministers had finished their discussion. Seeing his daughter coming in, he raised his eyebrows and said, "You've been out for so long? Where have you been playing?"
Gu Xuan happily took out today's trophies to show to her father. Just now, Gu Cheng and Yan Zui gave all the things in their hands to Aunt Sun and Aunt Li, and she just took them out to show their courtesy.
Han Xianzong took a look and saw that most of what she bought were things that his daughter's family liked. Although he was not very interested, he still listened with interest and commented from time to time.
Like a little sparrow, Gu Xuan flew around outside and chirped about what she had seen. Han Xianzong did not think her words were useless and listened very seriously.
But when he saw the last piece of rouge that Gu Xuan took out, he couldn't help but laugh: "A-Xuan, did you buy this?"
Does his daughter love beauty so much at such a young age? You're not even ten years old yet, and you already know how to buy rouge when you go out on the street?
She is really just like her mother.
"No," Gu Xuan is a good girl, and she will never hide anything from her father if she can. I saw her puffing up her cheeks and then said:
"No, someone gave it to me."
"Given to you?" Han Xianzong was truly shocked.
Who sent it?
Most of all daughter slaves have one thing in common, that is, they are afraid that their daughter will be bribed by some brat.
Han Xianzong knew how to prepare for a rainy day. He narrowed his eyes and asked, "Who gave it to you?"
"The third young lady of the prefect's family and Miss Zhang." Gu Xuan thought for a moment. She still remembered the words of shopkeeper Xuanzhai, and easily recalled the identities of the two young ladies.
Upon hearing the identities of these two people, Han Xianzong looked slightly startled for a moment, but this moment was too short, and Gu Xuan was not staring at his father, so he didn't notice at all.
"Have you spoken to them?" Although Han Xianzong has not met these two ladies, his initial impression of them is not bad.
Giving his daughter rouge so generously is probably not too bad.
"No," Gu Xuan decided to tell the truth directly: "Because they like Prince Yan and the others, they gave me rouge and I went out with them."
Han Xianzong seemed to have not expected the truth to be like this, and was stunned for a moment.
But after a moment, he couldn't help but laugh out loud: "So that's it."
He had forgotten that Gu Cheng and Yan Zui were also talented young men, so it was normal for them to be favored by two young ladies.
However, Ah Xuan got a little benefit, and the two ladies even gave her rouge.
"If dad is fine, I will go back to the room first. I still have to pack these things." Gu Xuan looked at the pile of things like a young adult and sighed.
"Go, go." Han Xianzong was overjoyed.
After watching her daughter's figure jumping away, until the door was closed, she was still staring at the door in a daze.
"Your Majesty," Laifu smiled beside him: "The princess looks much happier after leaving the palace. She is smiling all day long."
"Isn't it?" Han Xianzong shook his head helplessly, and then glared at Laifu: "If you want to call me master, why do you call me by the palace title?"
When he left the palace before, he specifically ordered that after leaving the palace, Laifu must call himself "Master" whether in private or in front of outsiders.
The purpose is to get Laifu used to it so that he won't call him wrong in front of others.
"It's my slave who is stupid!" Laifu gave himself a gentle mouth and said with a playful smile: "Master, this slave will remember it, and I will definitely not call you the wrong one in the future."
"Hmm..." Han Xianzong agreed, thought for a moment and then asked: "You said that the prefect was unwilling to receive us before. Is there any room for maneuver on this matter?"
They claimed to be famous imperial merchants and came to Jingu to visit the prefect. Who would have thought that after the messenger went to the prefect's mansion, what he brought back was the news that the prefect was unwilling to receive him.
Han Xianzong's southern tour was to inspect various places. He asked the co-organizer to reveal his identity here just because he knew that the county magistrate did not dare to make mistakes, and his position could not cause any trouble here.
But the prefect was different, so he made a special trip to visit the prefect's mansion.
Unexpectedly, the prefect declined him politely and did not say when he would agree.
They couldn't stay in one place for too long. This was what Han Xianzong had discussed with several of his confidants.
"My servants don't know -" Laifu said with a grimace. He was the chief internal officer and the most famous person around Han Xianzong. Of course he also knew about these things. Not only did he know, he also helped Han Xianzong deal with many things. few:
"If you want me to tell you, this governor really doesn't know what's good or bad. If it doesn't work out, let's get it through someone he's friends with. I don't believe he's not willing at all."
Laifu said this very seriously, and there was even a thoughtful look in his eyes. It was obvious that he was serious, and he really thought so in his heart.
"I did think of a good idea," Han Xianzong motioned to Laifu to come forward, and then said his thoughts again.
"Is it really possible?" Laifu expressed his doubts.
"It can be done." Han Xianzong glanced at him secretly. How long had Laifu been out of the palace before he began to doubt his own words? How bold!
"Yes." Laifu smiled apologetically, turned around and went down to do his work.
Here Gu Xuan happily returned to the yard with her shopping, and Gu Cheng and Yan Zui came again a little later.
The two of them obviously came well prepared, holding a pheasant in their hands and eager to take her to roast it.
"Sister A-Xuan, this chicken is definitely more delicious than the bird we shot that day. The food here is all soupy and watery, so we might as well go out and have a meal together."
Gu Cheng said with a smile.
"Where did you come from?" Gu Xuan looked surprised. It couldn't be where they came from, right?
This chicken looks like a domestic chicken, not a pheasant.
"I asked my servant to buy it." Gu Cheng's answer also confirmed Gu Xuan's guess. He weighed the chicken in his hand:
"This chicken is not light, it is enough for the three of us to have a good meal."
"But it's too late," Gu Xuan frowned, and there were no hidden places near the county government office. It would be dark when she went out and came back by then:
"If my father finds out, all three of us will be criticized."
