"Deputy Fushu, I'm embarrassed. Even if the plan is exposed, there is little chance of being recognized. Please rest assured, Your Majesty, Ziyuan will definitely complete the matter and come back safely."
The courtiers can't understand what happened recently.
It is said that Prime Minister Xia's daughter threatened to marry Commander Gu, and for this reason, Baifanlou even set up a gambling game.
The odds have increased from two to one to ten to one.
I also heard that Commander Gu’s child bride heard about the gambling at Baifanlou and was very dissatisfied. She went to the palace to seek an explanation from His Majesty.
She is the princess of Ruian County, personally designated by His Majesty, so it is natural for her to seek justice from His Majesty.
But His Majesty did not give a clear answer.
But the head of Ruian County said that Gu Qingjue had told her that she would be the only one in her life, and that if Xia Xunwei's matter was not resolved, she would not marry.
So I picked up a bag and took a carriage back to my hometown.
What was even more unexpected was that the new commander chased his beloved wife back to his hometown overnight.
The dandy who came to drink at Baifanlou talked about this.
That smile was really unscrupulous.
"Hey, have you heard that the infantry commander couldn't even find a wife for his own wedding? He ran back to his hometown in anger. I can't help it anymore, I'm going to die laughing... Hahaha!"
The person who spoke was Chen Youmin, grandson of Prime Minister Chen Zhizhong.
When he was young, Chen Zhizhong got an official position because of his father's influence. He did not act carelessly because his father was the prime minister.
It is said that Chen Zhizhong will soon be promoted to the post of Chief Minister.
It's equivalent to Zaifu.
So when calling Chen Zhizhong, everyone politely called him Zaifu.
At home, Chen Zhizhong gave numerous instructions to his heirs to keep a low profile and not to cause trouble.
But the offspring failed to live up to expectations and his son was in poor health.
The grandson spends his days walking cats and dogs, or eating, drinking, whoring and gambling with a few other dudes.
Now come to Baifanlou to talk nonsense.
"I heard this from my old man. It's really funny. It's not that he's so talented that he can't even handle a woman. Now everyone in Kyoto knows about it. It's really embarrassing for us men."
This person is Jia Yifan, the grandson of Jia Xiang.
The two of them are about the same age as Gu Qingjue.
When Gu Qingjue was praised as Young Master Huanlin by his family, Chen Youmin and Jia Yifan had not yet been praised by their grandfather.
Therefore, the two of them were not hostile to Gu Qingjue, but just wanted to meet him.
But when Gu Qingjue reached the third rank, he was granted the rank of Privy Councilor of the sixth rank as soon as he entered the official service. In just four months, he was granted the title of Earl of Kai and was appointed as the commander of the infantry.
From the beginning, the two people only wanted to get to know Gu Qingjue, but now they want to make each other look embarrassed.
Can't he?
But it’s not like he can’t even handle a woman.
Chen Youmin curled his lips: "It was said that the head of Ruian County was born as a child bride, but now it seems that he has completely controlled Gu Qingjue. Otherwise, he would have the power to live in the Su Mansion."
"Brother Cishan and Brother Yanfu are right."
The person who echoed this was Ran Shixian's eldest son, Ran Xiankun.
He was a concubine, a concubine from a merchant family, but he was mixed with these three generations of officials.
It's not that they think highly of him.
It's because this Ran Xiankun is a flatterer and a generous spender. Most of their expenses for eating, drinking and having fun are paid for by this Ran Xiankun.
Therefore, with such a free money bag, it is assumed that Ran Xiankun is their follower.
Seeing that Chen Youmin and Jia Yifan were not angry, Ran Xiankun continued, "But as far as I know, Gu Qingjue's happy wife is very powerful. Gu Qingjue is where he is today thanks to her."
A few people just had a few drinks and were not drunk.
After hearing what Ran Xiankun said, he immediately reacted: "Listen to what you said, are you Chongxi's wife who knows Gu Qingjue?"
"I don't even know her, I just have people under my command who have dealt with her and suffered losses at her hands."
Chen Youmin became interested and sat upright, saying, "Tell me carefully."
"This has to start a few years ago. Brother Yanfu knew that our Ran family's pearl and jade business spread throughout the Song Dynasty. At that time, Gu Ziyuan was still studying in Songyang Academy. This girl Su pursued her husband directly from Jiangning Mansion to Deng. Feng. Opened a garment shop in Dengfeng."
Jia Yifan said: "Isn't it that she is just a farm girl or an adopted daughter? How did she learn to do business?"
Ran Xiankun shook his head: "I checked this. Although she is an adopted daughter, the family that adopted her also loved her very much. They even hired a husband for her. That family had a son who drove a car in the local town. Brothel.”
When Jia Yifan heard this, he said, "Her brother runs a red building? Could it be that Miss Su's ability to handle men was learned from the young lady in the building?"
The sound fell, and several people laughed unbridled.
After laughing enough, Chen Youmin said: "It seems that this happy lady is really unusual."
"I do have some skills. At that time, one of my concubines' natal family was in the dessert business. At that time, their family was competing with a store called Tianjia Shop. They were almost exhausted, but they suddenly came back to life and launched many products without seeing them. The pastries and desserts are extremely popular.”
"What does this have to do with her?"
"At first I thought it had nothing to do with her, but after investigation, I found that she was the only one who had frequent contact with the Tian family at that time."
Jia Yifan still didn't believe it: "How can a woman who was sold as a child bride be so capable?"
Chen Youmin let out a "tsk" sound: "I remembered that when the eldest princess was born, my grandfather took me there. At that time, Miss Su and Pang Pangren's daughter were competing on the stage together. I watched Pang Lanzhi compare her martial arts skills Even better.”
Pang Lanzhi's martial arts was taught by General Pang himself. In this capital, not to mention women, not many men could beat her.
But Pang Lanzhi is no match for Su Yixin.
Now think about it, how can ordinary women do this?
Jia Yifan also went that day.
But he didn't know martial arts, and his attention wasn't on the stage at the time, so he didn't have much of an impression.
"This can only mean that she is good at martial arts, not that she is powerful."
Ran Xiankun pursed his lips and continued: "There is another thing. At that time, my concubine's natal family specially invited someone from outside the family to deal with the Tian family, just to make the Tian family unlucky."
At this point, Ran Xiankun's voice became much softer and his head lowered a lot: "It was about to succeed, but when Miss Su went to Tian's house twice, the trick was broken. Not only was Tian's house safe, but the business was getting better day by day. The day is booming, but the Zhang family is experiencing constant bad luck, and their business has been suppressed by the Tian family, so they can only survive in the cracks."
