Rebirth of marriage

Gu Xiao wanted to marry Xie Jiu legitimately in the capital.

His current Xiaowang Mansion is the Xianwang Mansion where the emperor lived before he ascended the throne. At that time, the emperor was like a little transparent and was ignored by everyone. The palace he was allocated was also poor and old.

After Gu Xiao came of age, the emperor transferred the palace to Gu Xiao. Gu Xiao did not live in the palace for a long time, and the palace had not been repaired since he had only a few memories of when he was five years old.

But if he and Xie Jiu were to get married here, such a house would be too aggrieved for Xie Jiu.

He still remembered that when she was at Xie's house, Xie Baoshan tried his best to give her the best, and she should live her life with dignity.

He told Xie Jiu his thoughts, and Xie Jiu was slightly surprised. Then she understood Gu Xiao's intention.

He wanted her to be her wife upright, to appear in front of others with him at any time and anywhere, instead of secretly returning to Yuyouguan to get married.

This is the path she wants to take in this life, and Gu Xiao wants to join hands with her, which makes her heart warm.

However, Prince Xiao's Mansion has special meaning to Gu Xiao. She smiled and said, "We don't live here long, so we don't need to repair it. It's just good to be in the same place with you."

None of them liked the capital and would have to leave sooner or later, so why ruin the few remaining memories in Gu Xiao's heart.

Gu Xiao picked her up and lay on him, rubbing his hair along her back, "It's been so long ago, I actually don't remember much about my childhood.

The past is past, let's live our future well. Besides, when my daughter is born, I can't bear to wrong her. When she grows up, she will blame me as a father who doesn't hug me and can't even give you a decent house for you and your daughter. both……"

The beautiful vision of the future convinced Xie Jiu.

Then she asked about the house, "I heard that this house was sold to an official from the Ministry of Personnel. Is that official one of yours?"

Gu Xiao nodded, "This house is separated by a wall from the courtyard where you live, but it is far away from the gate of the Marquis Mansion. It is difficult to notice this without jumping on the roof.

From now on, someone will prepare food here every day. Let Lu Kang pick it up at the courtyard wall. I will leave some people here to protect you. If you have anything, you can order them to handle it. "

"Judging from Cao Shoufu's performance, he didn't know that those assassins were trying to kill me, so he probably didn't know about my relationship with you. Nihuang has been banned for another month. What I need to guard against now is Yang Xiner. I have enough people under me ”

There is also the emperor, but if the emperor really wants to take action, it will be difficult to guard against it.

However, Xie Jiu analyzed that the emperor would not take action against him in the near future. He had three sons, and those two were nephews of the Cao family. Letting them inherit the throne would be equivalent to handing over the country to the Cao family.

The emperor would never give in.

Regardless of whether he likes Gu Xiao or not, he needs to use Gu Xiao, a prince who has no dealings with the Cao family, to suppress the Cao family and the third and fourth princes who are related to the Cao family.

If he attacks her, it will only make Gu Xiao turn against him. The emperor will not be so stupid.

"The Cao family will find out sooner or later." Gu Xiao's voice gradually became colder, "Unless, master and servant Cao Chengwang are killed."

He was still thinking about the arrow that Xie Jiu received.

Xie Jiu stroked his brow and said, "Come one by one."

They did not have the power to compete with half of the Cao family, and the emperor was not happy with them. They could only try to do it slowly while protecting themselves. She kept in mind Gu Xiao's words, revenge must be avenged, but revenge cannot be everything in life. , otherwise what is the meaning of her rebirth.

However, if the opportunity is right, Cao Chengwang can be silenced first.

Gu Xiao grabbed her hand and kissed it, "Okay."

The two of them talked softly again. I don't know who started it, but they were stuck together again.

It was still dark, and Xie Jiu was carried back to Yongninghou Mansion by Gu Xiao while he was sleepy. He returned to Prince Xiao's Mansion, changed clothes, and went to the morning court.

Originally, he was an outcast prince and did not need to go to court early in the morning, but the emperor specially ordered him to attend court every day. In addition, in the court recently, in addition to the controversy about his assassination, there was also the matter of Yu Zhifu's corruption and taxation.

The old censor persisted in this matter and tried to severely damage Cao's party. However, he was a lone minister and it would not be easy for him to fight against the entire Cao's party. Gu Xiao could help him if necessary.

Xie Jiu woke up when she returned to Yongning Hou Mansion. She calmed down in bed for a while and then got up.

Jiuxiao Pavilion sent a lot of news about various places in the capital, and Xie Jiu wanted to understand these clearly before Yang Xiner took action against her.

There were also the account books of various shops in the capital sent by Boss Lu. Xie Jiu was busy in the morning.

Lin Shu indeed sent a lot of bedding and other things over. She had a good relationship with Xie Jiu through Minglu. Wen Qi and Lou Qi came with her.

They were worried about her and wanted to come and have a look.

After Lou Qi arrived in the capital, Xie Jiu had someone buy the house next door to Lin Shu's house and let Lou Qi live in it. Yang Xiner was sold with Lin Shu's participation. If she wanted to take revenge this time, her target would be different. It was just her and Lin Shu.

With Lou Qi living next door to Lin Shu, Xie Jiu felt more at ease.

When Boss Yang heard that Wen Qi was coming, he hurriedly welcomed him and Lou Qi into the main hall. He only thought that Lou Qi was Wen Qi's friend, while Lin Shu and Su Mengjiao went to Xie Jiu's courtyard.

"No wonder he urged me to deliver things early in the morning." Lin Shu glanced at Xie Jiu's residence, which was better than the house where the maids of the Lin family lived before.

Xie Jiu smiled. She had such a large dowry, but Ms. Cai said that she was a widow and should not live too luxuriously, so she was sent to this courtyard and she was not allowed to use the dowry to subsidize herself.

How stupid was she in her previous life to think that her mother-in-law, who had been teasing her for several years like this, was really doing her best.

Thinking of Mrs. Cai, she said to Lin Shu, "You should continue to diagnose and treat Mrs. Cai. She should get better gradually."

Only when she gets better can I give her a wife letter.

Lin Shu was a little worried, "Cai is cunning, will something bad happen then?"

"Yes." Xie Jiu said, "But I have a good plan."

Seeing her say this, Lin Shu felt relieved and nodded, "Then I'll come tomorrow."

Xie Jiu told Su Mengjiao about the Yuyou tabloid, and finally said, "Let Lou Qi come over tonight."

Su Mengjiao nodded, knowing that Xie Jiu had something to arrange.

After they returned, Xie Jiu told Mr. Yang that he asked Lin Shu to continue treating Mr. Cai.

There is no need to pay for it yourself. Boss Yang has nothing to disagree with.

He now hoped that Mrs. Cai could live longer, but Lin Shu had not cured Ms. Cai before, and he no longer particularly trusted her medical skills. Now that he had returned to the capital, there were many good doctors, so he said, "I will try again someday." Invite some imperial doctors to diagnose and treat my mother, and prepare some money."

Xie Jiu responded with a smile, and with a turn of her eyes, she said slowly, "I heard that Xin'er is now from Prince Gong's Mansion. Have you seen her? I wonder if she is okay now?"

Originally, because Xie Jiu readily paid for Cai's treatment, Boss Yang still had a look of satisfaction on his face. After hearing Xie Jiu's words, his expression immediately darkened, "This matter is not your responsibility."

After that, he threw down his sleeves and strode away.

On the second day after he returned to Beijing, he heard about Yang Xin'er, and he was very happy that his sister could have such a good fortune. Although Prince Gong had no real power, he had high seniority and strong financial resources. He still had some connections in the court, so he might be able to help someone in the future. Yongninghou Mansion.

But for such a big event as their return to Beijing, Yang Xiner didn't show up. Later, he couldn't hold it back anymore and asked Yang Fan to visit him, but Yang Xiner refused to see the visitor because he felt unwell.

He doesn't even care about his parents' family and is ungrateful, which makes people angry just by mentioning it.

Seeing Boss Yang's expression, Xie Jiu understood everything. Yang Xiner didn't even contact Boss Yang.

No matter how favored a concubine is, she still needs her natal family to rely on. What's more, the Yongning Houfu has been pardoned and returned to the capital. It is impossible for Yang Xiner to abandon her natal family.

Could it be that he overestimated Yang Xiner? She wasn't hiding any conspiracy, but she encountered something that couldn't happen to her?

If this is the case, then her life in Prince Gong's Mansion may not be as comfortable as she let on.

With this idea in mind, Xie Jiu took a closer look at Yang Xiner when she came to visit her three days later.

Yang Xiner, who used to love beauty very much, has always been covered with a veil, leaving only a pair of eyes.

When she looked at Xie Jiu, her eyes curved into the shape of crescents, and she said affectionately, "Sister-in-law Fourth, I finally look forward to your return."

It was just that the eyes were like quenched poison, which made Qingqiu who was following Xie Jiu shiver for no reason.
