Rebirth of the Merchant Woman's Revenge

Gu Qiongsi nodded quickly, "Don't worry, Your Highness, Qingzhu understands."

After she finished speaking, she got up from the ground with difficulty, and Shuangrui walked up to her and helped her up in time.

At this time, the three people that Prince An had just ordered to come over had also arrived outside the hall. After making sure they were informed, they walked in together.

"You three have arrived at the perfect time. Let me introduce you. This is Young Master Qingzhu."

Li Junze pointed at Gu Qiongsi and introduced her, which meant that he had agreed to have her as his diner. In the future, they would have to deal with each other frequently.

Wen Jiaxiang took a look at Gu Qiongsi and discovered that she was disguised as a man. He realized that she was Xie Chengan's concubine Gu Qiongsi, so he cupped his hands and said, "Xie Zhuangyuan's legitimate wife is not someone you want to mess with..."

He naturally thought of the matter of them going together to meet Gu Xunwei and asking her to sign a letter of understanding. Although that woman was a businesswoman, she was also a stubborn person.

Gu Qiongsi smiled helplessly and said nothing. No matter how fiercely they fought at home, it was not appropriate to talk about it in front of outsiders.

"If you can find a way to get Hu Er out of the Dali Temple, I promise to help Xie Zhuangyuan divorce his wife and make you his legal wife." Li Junze gave the conditions that he thought Gu Qiongsi was looking forward to, but he didn't know that Gu Qiongsi had little interest in this condition at the moment.

But she still bowed her hands to thank Li Junze, "Thank you, Your Highness Prince An, for your help."

"After the incident with Xie Zhuangyuan is over, arrange for him to enter the palace as a counselor. I have heard of his talent a long time ago. You can ask Xie Zhuangyuan to prepare well these days."

Li Junze said again that he had paid attention to Xie Cheng'an because of his two poems. He was impressed by Xie Cheng'an's talent, but he didn't know that those poems were actually written by Gu Qiongsi.

Gu Qiongsi expressed his gratitude again, and then they began to discuss Hu Er's matter.

The three of them had known about Hu Er's arrest a long time ago, and they also knew that Hu Er knew Prince An, but they didn't know any more details.

At this time, when Wen Jiaxiang heard that they needed to find a way to rescue Hu Er from the Dali Temple, the first thing he thought of was the reason why Hu Er was arrested.

"It is said that Hu Er was arrested by the Dali Temple because he caused trouble at Ruyi Casino. If we can get Ruyi Casino to come forward and settle the matter, will the Dali Temple have no reason to continue detaining Hu Er?"

"Yes, if Ruyi Casino no longer pursues the matter, then nothing will happen." Cao Xingwen also echoed.

Gu Qiongsi shook her head again. "This matter is strange in every way. On the day Hu Er was arrested, my husband was actually nearby. He said that several men in black attacked Hu Er, and Hu Er was also protected by someone. When the Dali Temple arrived, they arrested the men in black and both of them."

"The man in black is the secret guard of Prince An's Mansion." Li Junze said directly. He did not intend to hide this matter from Gu Qiongsi.

Gu Qiongsi was not even a bit surprised. If she were Prince An, she would have chosen to do the same. Leaving Hu Er behind would mean leaving a big trouble behind, so it would be better to assassinate him and put an end to it once and for all.

"Okay, the man in black can be confirmed, but the person who protected him cannot be confirmed. Moreover, the Hu Er that everyone knows was captured at that time, but at that time, my husband said that everyone just watched from a distance and it was raining heavily, so it was impossible to confirm whether it was the real Hu Er. The most they could confirm was that he looked seven times like Hu Er."

"Moreover, based on Qingzhu's understanding of Hu Er, he probably has no relatives or friends in the capital except those in Prince An's Mansion and the two of us. The person who protected her is very suspicious."

After hearing what Gu Qiongsi said, Wen Jiaxiang and the other two looked at each other. The information they had heard was roughly the same, but the details were definitely not as detailed as what he said.

Li Junze thought for a moment before saying, "If the Dali Temple was investigating the case because Hu Er was causing trouble in Ruyi Casino, they shouldn't have arrested the secret guards and the people who protected him. Moreover, there has been no movement for such a long time since they were arrested. After Qingzhu said that, I also felt something was wrong."

"Then, how about we find a connection and go to the Dali Temple to inquire about the situation of this matter?" Cao Xingwen's eyes rolled around. He knew a friend who was on duty at the Dali Temple. It should be no problem to ask about this matter in a subtle way.

Li Junze nodded in agreement, but he glanced at Gu Qiongsi and saw that he shook his head. He looked at Li Junze and said, "Your Highness, Qingzhu means that we should keep our troops in place and wait and see what happens."

"Why?" Cao Xingwen asked with some confusion.

"Hu Er has been arrested for such a long time. He has said everything he should say in the Dali Temple. He will not say anything else, so it is really unnecessary for us to spend more effort to get him out now."

"What's more, considering the current situation of His Royal Highness Prince An, the seal on the door of his mansion has just been removed, so it is better to be cautious. In addition, the Dali Temple is at a critical moment now, and the matter at the Queen Mother's birthday banquet should have a result in the next few days. If we expose this matter, we may cause unnecessary trouble."

Gu Qiongsi's words made Li Junze nod his head again. This woman's words really touched his heart. Originally because of the unknown situation of Hu Er, the uneasiness in his heart, he now felt a little relieved.

"What Qingzhu said makes sense. What do you three think?" Li Junze still wanted to ask for the opinions of Wen Jiaxiang and the other three.

"We have no objection, so let's do as Master Qingzhu wishes." Wen Jiaxiang replied on behalf of the three of them.

"Okay, let's stop here today. Butler, take Qingzhu to the accounting office to get some funds." Li Junze saw that everyone had almost reached an agreement, so he waved his hand and asked the butler to take Gu Qiongsi out of the reception room.

"Your Highness, I have made some inquiries about this woman's affairs. Some details seem to be different from what you know. I wonder if Your Highness is interested in listening." Cao Xingwen saw Gu Qiongsi leaving the house, then he stepped forward and spoke in a low voice.

"Well, tell me about it."

"She was originally the cousin of Xie Zhuangyuan's legitimate wife. When Xie Zhuangyuan was discussing marriage, she was already pregnant. Xie Zhuangyuan and his legitimate wife were also introduced to this young... Aunt Gu's plan. It is obvious that she did all these because she coveted her cousin's family property. Originally, she used poison this time to poison the head of the Gu family and his daughter. The incense shop and family property of the Gu family will definitely fall into the hands of Xie Zhuangyuan."

Cao Xingwen said this with some worry, and his tone was already filled with contempt for Gu Qiongsi.
