Su Yixin happened to be walking around the yard with the Qiankun Glazed Mirror, preparing to find an auspicious day to set up two formations for the house.
Hearing the voices of Gu Qingjue and Li Duanyuan talking, he put away the glass mirror and went to the flower hall.
"You just said that your mother is not feeling well. Please tell me carefully, where is the discomfort?"
"My brothers and sisters all heard it."
After arriving at the flower hall and sitting down, Li Duanyuan said in detail: "About half a month ago, my mother always felt pain in her legs. A few days later, her hands started to hurt again and she felt very heavy. She didn't pay attention at first. After my hands hurt in the back, I called the imperial doctor. The imperial doctor diagnosed the pulse and said it was because the weather was hot and cold, and I ate cold things in my diet. It would be fine in a few days. I didn't expect it to get worse, but the person was awake, that is, his hands and feet. No more use of strength!”
After Su Yixin heard this, she was not sure for a while whether the eldest princess was simply ill or if she had some evil intentions.
"It's too late today. Come pick me up early tomorrow morning and take a look."
"Okay, then I'll go back first."
Li Duanyuan stood up happily and did not forget to kick Gu Qingjue's calf: "Well, don't be angry. If it doesn't work, I will go to the Xia Mansion. They will definitely not care about it for my sake."
"What do you mean?"
"Didn't you beat Miss Xia in Baifan Tower?"
Su Yixin raised her eyebrows and looked at Gu Qingjue: "Do you think I shouldn't hit her?"
"No, you started too lightly, I'm afraid she won't have a long memory."
Gu Qingjue's words made Li Duanyuan, who still wanted to kick him again, open his mouth in surprise: "Ziyuan, you are..." You are too doting on your younger siblings!
Although Xia Xunwei took the initiative to find trouble, she didn't really take action.
Your fiancée kicked someone away. Although her arms and legs were intact, the bruises and bruises on her body lasted for ten days and a half, so don't think about it.
The most important thing is that being beaten in public is tantamount to trampling on the Xia family's face.
The problem is still somewhat serious.
But what did Gu Qingjue say? To say that Su Yixin was too gentle, are these two people crazy?
Su Yixin was very satisfied with Gu Qingjue's answer.
The two looked at each other affectionately, but Li Duanyuan said that he didn't even notice and ran away.
"You really don't blame me for being impulsive?"
She was not beating an ordinary official lady, but someone with real power. She was very likely to become the beloved daughter of the powerful Xia Shuxiang.
As a descendant, she naturally knew that Xia Song did not successfully succeed Xia Shuxiang this time due to the opposition of the court officials, and there was a high probability that she would not have this opportunity in the future.
But Gu Qingjue didn't know.
He is in the Privy Council now. If Xia Song makes a stumbling block, it will be enough for Gu Qingjue to drink a pot.
"People are kicking their noses in the face. If you don't fight back, it's not your style."
"He who knows me is Ziyuan."
Li Duanyuan felt that she acted impulsively because Li Duanyuan didn't understand her.
Since she dared to take action, she had already thought of a countermeasure.
The place where they had their conflict was at Bifunlou, not on the street. When the incident happened, it was not yet noon, and not many people came to eat at Bifunlou.
No one with a little bit of brain would be able to chew on this tongue.
Of course, the common people can't hear the news, but those high-ranking officials and dignitaries will definitely know.
Even if the matter spreads, it only takes one search to find out who spread the scandal about Miss Xia being beaten.
She, Su Yixin, was Gu Qingjue's wife who had signed a marriage contract, but the wedding had not yet been held.
Gu Qingjue respected her, so he asked his uncle to go to her maternal home with the betrothal gift and give her a decent wedding.
It doesn't matter if outsiders don't know this, and outsiders are not allowed to know.
All they need to know is that she is Gu Qingjue's serious wife.
Rich families want to be proud, so even if they secretly disdain Su Yixin's identity, they won't say it outright.
But when Xia Xunwei announced that she wanted to marry Gu Qingjue, she already lost her dignity, and she even foolishly took the initiative to make trouble in front of the other person's main wife. Wasn't this because she didn't take her own face seriously.
If Mrs. Xia was sensible, she would not blame her for hitting someone.
I just want to thank her and hope that she can get the water out of her daughter's brain.
It would be easier if Mrs. Xia was confused.
She still has a plan waiting for her.
At night, Su Yixin was in the bedroom preparing things for the formation, while Gu Qingjue was handling official duties.
Gu Yi appeared like a ghost, and Gu Qingjue took away the spiritual stone placed under the lampstand, so that Gu Yi could enter the study smoothly: "Reporting to the master, after Gu Mingjue's family entered Beijing, they lived in the Han family, and now only Gu Mingjue has left the house. I met with friends several times, and I took Gu Nanshan with me every time and did not go anywhere else."
"Who have you met?"
"One is Xia Anqi, the son of Xia Song, the other is Privy Councilor Kong Chong, and the other is Bi Qingchang, the observer."
Bi Qingchang is the father of Qiu Hong's wife, Bi Xinyu. Bi Xinyu's mother, Kou Suyu, is the daughter of Kou Zhun, the famous prime minister of our dynasty. Bi Qingchang is also the queen of the famous prime minister Bi Shi'an.
It's a pity that Bi Qingchang did not inherit half of Bi Shian's worldly talents and did nothing.
It was thanks to Bi Shi'an's influence that I got an observer at the age of forty.
Gu Qingjue put down his pen, a little surprised how Gu Mingjue got involved with Bi Qingchang and even took Gu Nanshan to visit him in person.
Master left the capital a few days ago and returned to Wangjiacun, and personally brought Qiu Hong back to Kyoto.
At this sensitive time, Gu Mingjue met Bi Qingchang and had to make Gu Qingjue think more about what the relationship was between them, or whether it was related to Qiu Hong.
"Keep staring."
"yes."
After Gu Yi went out, Gu Qingjue called Gu Er again: "Go and keep an eye on Xia Mansion. If anything happens, report it immediately."
Gu Er: "Master, do you have to keep an eye on everyone?"
Gu Qingjue glanced at Gu Er, who looked at him with a confused look: "Master, did I say something wrong?"
"No, you have become smarter recently. I heard from Gu San that you often go to Lianqiu to discuss things. It seems that the harvest is not small, so I should reward you."
"Thank you, Master, can I ask for a reward?"
"What do you think."
Gu Er said: "I want to be the leader of the secret guard."
Gu Qingjue's brows moved and he said: "The leader of the secret guard is the one who can do it. You must have this ability. It doesn't matter who I say it is."
"Master, I know this."
Their ranking is based on their abilities.
Although he, the second place, was somewhat of a cheater and pushed Gu San to the back, he couldn't match his brains and his strength was definitely better than Gu San's.
"In this way, after this errand, I will arrange for the secret guard to take another assessment. Whether you can be the leader of the secret guard depends on your own ability."
"Thank you, Master."
Gu Erhuan left the study happily.
Thinking that the master suddenly asked him to stare at the Xia Mansion, it must be because of the fight between the girl and the Xia girl in Baifan Tower.
If that's the case, his focus should be on Mrs. Xia and Miss Xia.
