The scumbag ran away from marriage, I remarried on the spot

Changxing Hou Mansion.

When Gu Xiuming came back, it was already evening. When he returned to Qingyu Pavilion, he saw Li Wan'er waiting eagerly under the eaves. The moment she saw him, her eyes lit up, she raised a smile, and walked towards him with a lot of steps.

He suddenly felt a little guilty. Wan'er's heart and eyes were full of him. He had also thought about being with Wan'er for the rest of his life. Although Wan'er was a concubine, he would never marry a wife in his life.

But reality gave him another blow. His father and mother were right. He did need a well-matched wife to help him and stabilize his position as the heir apparent. He also needed a legitimate son to make his grandmother happy. The bastard born to Wan'er was The weight in the grandmother's heart is far less than that of the legitimate son.

Li Waner held his arm affectionately and said gently and considerately: "Brother Xiuming, are you hungry? I'll have someone prepare a meal. I'll have the steamed seabass you like tonight."

Gu Xiuming was still thinking about getting a wife and didn't hear her words.

Li Waner called out again: "Brother Xiu Ming?"

Only then did Gu Xiuming come to his senses and asked blankly: "Wan'er, what's wrong?"

Seeing his absent-minded look, Li Waner said in confusion: "What are you thinking about? You were so absorbed in your thoughts that you didn't even hear what I said."

Gu Xiuming shook his head: "It's nothing, I'm hungry, let someone prepare a meal."

He didn't want to say anything, and Li Waner didn't want to continue asking, so as not to make him unhappy, so she nodded "Okay" and went to tell the maid to prepare the meal.

Gu Xiuming looked at the graceful figure of his sweetheart and felt more and more guilty. At the same time, he felt a little guilty, but he could still tell the difference. If he was not the prince, he would not be able to inherit the title in the future, and Wan'er would have to follow him. He had no choice but to suffer, and it was also for the sake of their future.

Wan'er is so simple, he will find a gentle and generous wife, so that Wan'er will not be punished, and he will not have another woman in the future. One wife and one concubine is enough, and the wife is forced to marry Yes, but his heart belongs to Wan'er.

After dinner, Gu Xiuming suddenly asked: "Wan'er, what would you think if you had one more sister?"

Li Wan'er trusted him quite a bit, but she didn't think of the worst. She just thought he was talking about normal sisters, so she replied with a smile: "I think it's good. If I can have more sisters, they can talk to me. Relieve boredom."

After hearing this, Gu Xiuming secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The uneasiness in his heart about betraying his sweetheart was also soothed. He thought to himself, then he would marry a gentle and virtuous wife, and Wan'er would definitely be able to accept it. If his wife and concubines are harmonious, he It also saves a lot of worry.

As for how to get a wife?

He had a headache. Marriage between men and women was dictated by parents and matchmakers. He once told Gu Jingxi that if Wan'er was to be his concubine, he would not marry a wife for the rest of his life but only Wan'er. If he regrets it now, tell Gu Jingxi that he wants to Gu Jingxi probably wouldn't let him get a wife. After all, Gu Jingxi wanted to train his fourth brother to be the heir apparent.

And Meng Jinyao, although she was his mother in name, definitely did not want him to live well and could not arrange a marriage for him.

His grandmother had a ancestral relationship with him, but if he told her about this, she would definitely tell Gu Jingxi and his wife to arrange the marriage for him, but even if they agreed verbally, they would not put their heart into it. She didn’t know what kind of wife she would look for for him, but in the end she tricked him.

Therefore, it is better for him to look for a wife by himself, plan slowly and step by step, and when the time is right and the girl refuses to marry him, he will succeed.

As night fell, Meng Jinyao and Gu Jingxi also returned to the Hou Mansion.

Just as the couple was about to pass through the Moon Cave Gate, Zhou Yun's voice came from behind. The couple paused and turned around to see Zhou Yun walking towards them quickly, as if he had something urgent to report.

Zhou Yun bowed to the couple, and then reported: "Master Hou, Yu Chuan has something to report, and he is waiting over there in the study."

Yu Chuan?

Gu Jingxi frowned, nodded and said, "Okay, I understand."

As he said this, he was about to go to the study room in the front yard to see Yu Chuan. He glanced at his little wife. He thought thoughtfully and felt that there were some things that he still had to let his little wife know, so he said warmly: "Ayao, come with me. past."

After hearing this, Meng Jinyao looked up at him in astonishment and said in confusion: "Husband, you guys have business to do. If I follow you, won't I be interfering with business? I'd better go back to Wei Ruixuan and wait for you."

Gu Jingxi shook his head slightly: "No problem, I think there are some things you should know."

Meng Jinyao looked at him inexplicably. She really couldn't think of any role she could play. She didn't know anything about handling cases, but since he said so, she would go and have a look.

When they arrived at the study room in the front yard, Meng Jinyao saw a young man wearing black clothes standing at the door of the study. The young man looked younger than Zhou Yun and seemed to be about the same age as her. He should be the Yu Chuan that Zhou Yun mentioned.

When Yu Chuan saw the couple, he hurriedly stepped forward to greet them and said, "I have met the Marquis and the Madam."

Gu Jingxi waved his hand, indicating that he didn't need to be polite, and then led his young wife into the study.

Yu Chuan followed closely and closed the study door.

Gu Jingxi pulled his young wife to sit down, looked at Yu Chuan, and asked quietly: "What happened?"

Yu Chuan replied: "Master Hou, the prince met his biological parents today."

Meng Jinyao was slightly surprised, but soon felt normal again. Gu Xiuming's rebellious son didn't regard Gu Jingxi as his father at all. Otherwise, how could he not listen to his repeated teachings? Now that the biological parents have come to the capital, they must have a good time reminiscing.

Gu Jingxi didn't care and asked casually: "Then what?"

Yu Chuan recommended Gu Jingze and Kong to Gu Xiuming, and earnestly persuaded Gu Xiuming to marry a well-matched lady and come back as his wife, consolidate his position as the heir apparent, and create a legitimate son to win over the old lady's heart. Gu Xiuming was successfully persuaded to tell the truth. .

Gu Jingxi was silent for a moment and then ordered: "You continue to keep an eye on the prince. If he wants to harm a girl from a good family to achieve his goal, there is no need to ask me for permission. Stop him directly, and don't be afraid of exposing your identity."

Yu Chuan nodded and responded: "Yes, Lord Marquis."

Gu Jingxi added: "If there is nothing else, please step back first."

Yu Chuan responded and stepped back.

In the huge study room, only Gu Jingxi and Meng Jinyao were left.

Meng Jinyao suddenly learned the big news, and her mind couldn't digest it for a moment. She was very surprised and said: "Husband, didn't he say that you can only take one scoop out of three thousand weak water? Even if Aunt Li can't be your wife, then you can take her as your concubine, no?" Will he marry a wife? How long has it been now and he has changed his mind?"

Gu Jingxi played with the sachet on his waist and said quickly: "Maybe he felt that he was the heir before, so he was unscrupulous and did whatever he wanted. Now that he has a sense of crisis, he knows how to weigh the pros and cons."

Meng Jinyao sneered and said mockingly: "I thought he loved Aunt Li so much. He ran away from marriage for Aunt Li regardless of the family's reputation. In the end, it was nothing more than that. The promise he made was changed."

Gu Jingxi shook his head and smiled: "The love I once had was true, but people's hearts are fickle and the original intention is hard to keep. Driven by desire, it will become beyond recognition. The white moonlight will gradually turn into frost on the ground. In the end, maybe They will also blame each other.”

As he spoke, he half-squinted his eyes, a coldness welling up in his eyes, and said softly: "Let him do whatever he wants."
