When Liu Ruyan heard this, she did not respond obediently. Her heart was full of unwillingness and anger. Why should she just stay there and live a life with her tail between her legs?
And Yu Jinxi can go out to entertain guests openly and be treated as an honored guest?
"I know that I have a low status, and I'm afraid that I won't like Mrs. Qi when I see her. But Henglang, I have to go out to meet people sooner or later, so I can't hide it for the rest of my life?"
Liu Ruyan couldn't help but say it out. She was afraid that if she didn't fight, Gu Qiheng would completely forget about her.
Gu Qiheng said impatiently, "I didn't say I would hide you forever. Qi Chengshu is an old-fashioned person. If he knows that the rules in my house are not strict and he favors concubines and destroys his wife, he will definitely interfere with my personal ethics."
"The emperor was a little dissatisfied with me when others participated in me the past few times. If Mr. Qi gives me another opportunity to participate, my career as an official will be over."
Liu Ruyan didn't expect the matter to be so serious. She thought for a moment and said, "Even if I hide in the Gu family and don't go out, there's no guarantee that Yu Jinxi won't go to the Qi family and talk nonsense. What will happen then?"
Gu Qiheng's eyes flashed with fierceness, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Just bear with it for now, the palace is already planning the winter hunting schedule."
Seeing that he would never give up until he reached his goal, Liu Ruyan felt proud. What if Yu Jinxi became the first wife? Tsunero doesn't love her and wants her to die. He doesn't have to endure it much longer before his dream will come true.
Gu Qiheng and Liu Ruyan were looking forward to winter hunting, but they didn't know that Yu Jinxi was also waiting for winter hunting.
She and Mrs. Qi hit it off immediately. Mrs. Qi invited her to drink tea, and she sent Mrs. Qi rare fruits in winter.
Yu Jinxi was very measured, and all she gave were snacks, on the pretext that they were for the children of the Qi family, and Mrs. Qi accepted them without rejecting them.
As you come and go like this, the Qi family and the Gu family basically know each other's ins and outs.
Mrs. Qi has a son and a daughter. Her daughter has grown up and her son is about the same age as Gu Qiheng and is studying. In addition, the elderly in her hometown are getting older and it is not convenient to live alone. She also has to move to Beijing. The previous house cannot be accommodated. Just changed the house.
It’s not that Mr. Qi didn’t know who the owner of this house was, but Yanhuai said that the feng shui was not good and he failed to sell it after several attempts, so it was transferred to Mr. Qi.
Yu Jinxi was slightly startled when he heard the original words.
How could the house in Yanhuai have bad feng shui?
Even if the feng shui is not good, as long as he wants to sell it, there are many people who want to please him, so why worry about not being able to sell it?
Thinking about Mr. Qi's identity, I am afraid that he deliberately let the house off and sold the house to Mr. Qi.
When Yu Jinxi knew this, he didn't want to praise Huai for being smart and wise, but was worried about him.
He thought he was doing things covertly, but anyone above him could find out if he wanted to know.
Mr. Qi is the inspector of the Inspectorate and a second-grade censor. His house was sold to Mr. Qi at a discount. In the eyes of the emperor, this is not a problem of Feng Shui.
If he were to win over the courtiers, the one hundred thousand soldiers in Uncle Yan's hands would not be able to protect his life.
Yu Jinxi didn't care about anything else. After coming out of Qi's house, he contacted Chu Dashan and asked him to find Yanhuai.
She didn't want to come forward, but Yanhuai asked Chu Dashan to send a message and asked her to tell her face to face.
Yu Jinxi thought about it for a while and then agreed.
She made an appointment to meet at the restaurant she shared with Zuo Yutang, and asked him not to be so showy.
The next day, Yu Jinxi took Qingti out. After Liu Ruyan learned the news, he immediately asked Ling'er to find someone to follow. Chunya spread the news.
Before Ling'er could find anyone to follow Yu Jinxi, she was stopped by Granny Qian, found a wrong place and locked up, but Liu Ruyan didn't know anything about it.
The restaurant reopened after renovation. The front door and face were changed, and the layout inside was slightly modified, making it brighter instantly.
The downstairs was full, and the private rooms upstairs were no longer idle. The people working in the restaurant were performing their duties, and there was no mess anymore.
Yu Jinxi went there early and there was no one in the restaurant yet. She looked around the restaurant and saw that they were doing well, so she went upstairs.
When they walked around the corner, they saw Qingfeng guarding the door.
Seeing Yu Jinxi, Qingfeng bowed respectfully. Yu Jinxi looked back and asked Qingti to wait outside, then entered the private room alone.
Qingfeng and Qingti stood outside the door and stared at each other. Qingti felt bored, so she took out her purse and poured some pumpkin seeds she fried.
Qingfeng saw her squatting on the ground like a little squirrel. He thought it was very cute and couldn't help but take a second look.
Qingti didn't feel comfortable eating it alone, so she asked him, "Do you want to eat it? It's very delicious."
Qingfeng didn't like snacks, but seeing that Qingti had already handed it to him, he squatted down and ate with her.
…
When Yu Jinxi came in, Yanhuai stared at the teacup with a serious expression. When he saw her coming in, his face suddenly changed and he lifted the lid of the tea in his hand to play with it. Looking bored, he lifted the tea lid and played.
Yu Jinxi closed the door and walked towards him.
"Last time I advised you to protect yourself, and you said yes, why did you half-sell and half-give away the house to Mr. Qi in the blink of an eye?"
She stared at him with big eyes, full of helplessness and confusion, and more importantly, worry.
Yanhuai snorted and retorted, "You haven't done anything I asked you to do."
Yu Jinxi immediately said, "I didn't promise you, but you did."
Yanhuai said, "You can go back on your word if you agree."
Yu Jinxi was so angry, how could he be so shameless?
Yanhuai poured her a cup of tea and motioned for her to sit down.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Yu Jinxi sat down, Yanhuai had a serious face, "You first sent a message to the third prince through Miss Zhang, and then you said something to the third prince through someone else. Do you know how dangerous it is for you to do this?" ?”
"You dare to meddle in the royal family's affairs, and you don't want your life?"
Yu Jinxi lowered his eyes, "Even if I don't do some things, my life may not be saved."
Yanhuai said, "You are right. Even if the prince does not interact with Mr. Qi and keeps his tail between his legs, he may not be able to protect himself."
Yu Jinxi looked up at him in shock, with a faint smile on Yanhuai's face, "What you said last time was right. This prince has been living next door to the Gu family. There are always some people who spread gossip without knowing the meaning. , even if it is Gu Qiheng's fault, the emperor will still favor him."
"This prince has thought about it again and again, and only Mr. Qi is suitable to be Mr. Gu's neighbor."
Yanhuai smiled and said, "You don't know, Mr. Qi has a very powerful ability. Everything changes in his mouth. Red turns to white, white turns to black, and round things turn into flat ones."
Yu Jinxi only asked, "Does the Emperor believe it?"
No matter how good your eloquence is, it is still superfluous if the emperor does not believe it.
Yanhuai said, "If the emperor didn't believe him, he wouldn't have been promoted to the second rank before he was forty."
Yu Jinxi lowered his eyes slightly, "Yanhuai, I will protect myself, you don't have to do this..."
Before he finished speaking, Yan Huai said in a deep voice, "Yu Jinxi, I just want to protect you in this life!"
