Spoiling my mistress and swallowing my dowry? After my rebirth, I changed my marriage to a powerful

Thinking of Xie Xiangxiang, Mrs. Tu was so angry that she cursed Yuan Ji. If he hadn't been so talkative, wouldn't Xie Xiangzhao have married Yan'er?

How great it would be to have Xie Zhaozhao as a daughter-in-law. Her dowry is better than that of a princess, and she is loved by her family. She was raised by a royal concubine, is well-behaved, has a first-class appearance, and is also a top-notch noble lady.

What a great help my son is!

"Since the Xie family will not support Xie Xiangxiang, Yuebai will be adopted by her as the eldest son."

The three generations of the Marquis' family decided to open the ancestral hall during the Spring Festival to report to their ancestors and adopt Gu Yuebai as the eldest son of Gu Chengyan and Xie Xiangxiang.

The old lady said, "You must explain this matter clearly to the eldest brother. He doesn't know yet, right? Yuebai is his grandson."

Tu went to call Gu Boyu in person, but Gu Boyu was with his concubine Wang.

Gu Yanyan failed to harm Gu Huanhuan and was sold to a secret place by Sun Kehai. After she was found, she was given to Sun Kehai as a concubine. Wang Shi no longer had so many ambitions. She pestered Gu Boyu every day, hoping to give birth to another son.

He used all his tricks to make Gu Boyu completely bewildered.

Tu called Gu Boyu to the old lady's Ci'en Courtyard. He came out of the hot bed, feeling a little unhappy.

"Boss, have you seen the child Yuebai?" the old lady asked first.

Gu Boyu was a little confused. He only knew that there was a relative's child living in his house, but he didn't know whose child it was.

"That's Chengyan's child, your grandson." The old lady knew that both Tu and Gu Chengyan were afraid of Gu Boyu, so she had to personally point it out, "There's no reason for your grandson to be left outside. He must be brought back to the family tree."

Gu Boyu's eyes widened and he asked, "Gu Chengyan, you have a mistress?"

Gu Chengyan nodded: "I fell in love with a girl, she is very special, very knowledgeable, and completely different from the ladies nowadays."

"Where is she from? Why is she so special? You have a mistress, and you even say it's so refined. All the money in the family is gone. You sold it out, right?"

Gu Boyu is a playboy of the old generation, and he is also the type who doesn't even know Confucius's last name. "Don't blame me if your family is short of money in the future. You support people and I gamble, we are the same."

"My cousin..."

"Wait, your cousin? Which cousin?"

"..." Gu Chengyan considered and said, "Qianyue comes from a faraway place, a country we can't reach. She didn't have an identity at first, so I registered her under my uncle's name..."

"Could it be a spy from the enemy country?"

"No. Father, you have to believe her."

"Why should I believe her? Is she my mother or your mother?"

"Boss! Are you being silly again?" The old lady scolded angrily, "Why are you talking nonsense? The child is Yan'er's biological child. I don't plan to let this woman into the mansion, but the child must be brought back. The bloodline of the mansion cannot be lost outside."

Gu Boyu frowned and said, "Mother, how can you be sure that the child is Yan'er's? What if Yan'er is cuckolded?"

Tu said angrily, "My Lord, don't you hope that your son will be better?"

Gu Boyu spread his hands, "How could I not hope for the best for him? It's not like I haven't found him a wife. If he wants to take a concubine, he can just tell Mrs. Xie after a while. Why do you want to keep a concubine? Just keep her, why adopt her out? It's not like you can't have a child, so hurry up and have one with Mrs. Xie. A child like this from a concubine is not even a bastard, so why adopt her out!"

Gu Chengyan said: "But Yuebai is my eldest son."

"What do you mean by eldest son? You and Mrs. Xie have only been married for half a year, and you have adopted a child. What does that mean? You don't even want to bully people like this. Mother, why don't you do anything about it? And you are still condoning this evil trend?"

The old lady said angrily, "How could I have known that he had a concubine? Do you think I agree? But now that the child is born, I cannot deny it!"

Gu Boyu got up and left, saying at the door: "Hey, well, let me tell you, I don't agree with adopting a child! Also, don't let this kind of woman into the house. What foreigner? If she is a fugitive, our whole family will be executed. Don't make trouble for no reason! The Marquis's Mansion is not that glorious, but you can still support a few concubines, right? Why look for foreign women?"

This sentence frightened both Tu and Gu Chengyan so much that their faces changed.

The old lady didn't know that Tu Qianyue was the fugitive Guan Yingying, so she also said, "If it doesn't work, I'll ask your third uncle to check the details of that woman. He's very careful and will definitely find out everything."

Oh my God, let Gu Shaoyu investigate?

Isn't that seeking death?

The adoption was stopped immediately.

Gu Chengyan didn't care and said to Tu: "Let Xie raise her first. She likes Yuebai. Raise her for two or three years. If father sees that Xie still can't give birth, then he will agree to adopt her."

Ever since Tu found out that Xie Xiangxiang was abandoned by the Xie family, she has despised her to the extreme. Other people marry wives to help them, so what kind of woman did she marry for her son?

Gu Chengyan pleaded with Mrs. Tu and the old lady: "Ms. Xie is my wife no matter what. I hope that Grandmother and Mother will not tell anyone about this, and will not make things difficult for her or embarrass me."

The old lady sighed and said with a headache, "What a big deal! The rules of the Xie family are really not good. I saw Second Madam Xie the other day. Her demeanor and virtues were much better than those of Madam Xu. It can be seen that although Madam Xu is a successor, she was born in a humble family, and the children she raised are not like the legitimate sons of the rich family."

Tu said that she would definitely not tell anyone that Xie Xiangxiang was abandoned, and the Marquis's Mansion would lose face, but she demanded that starting tomorrow, Xie Xiangxiang must come and observe the rules in front of her.

Gu Chengyan also agreed, but asked his mother not to humiliate her too much.

Tu said, "Yan'er, you don't understand. Women are like animals. If they are not tamed, they don't know the rules."

Political Hall.

Gu Shaoyu was looking at a memorial in his hand. It was a memorial from Zhongzhou, written by Ling Xun to the imperial court.

The people of Zhongzhou were persuaded by him and gave up their rebellion and reconciled with the court.

Ling Xun sympathized with their plight, but he also had to give an explanation to the court, so he only arrested the two leaders, Xu Zhisheng and He Guangzhi.

Those two people were not vicious criminals. Their family was a wealthy family in the local area. In this earthquake, all the members of their family died except them.

Xu Zhisheng suppressed his grief, pointed out the location of his own granary to everyone, and asked the people to divide the stored grain.

Later he found out that the government didn't give out a single grain of food, but instead took the lead in selling it at a high price. He took a group of survivors to the prince to ask for an explanation, but the prince's men arrested dozens of them and locked them up and tortured them on the grounds of causing trouble.

The people managed to escape the natural disaster with great difficulty, but died from the suppression by government soldiers and the famine that followed the disaster.

In a rage, he led the people in a rebellion and robbed the Zhongzhou government office.

Later, He Guangzhi also brought some people to join Xu Zhisheng, and more and more people joined the uprising.

After being persuaded to surrender by Ling Xun, the two were willing to die and begged the court to treat the people of Zhongzhou well.

Ling Xun also said in the memorial that the counties in Zhongzhou that suffered the most from the disaster had already begun post-disaster resettlement and reconstruction.

"We have collected about 200,000 dan of grain and 3,000 dan of salt. The people of Zhongzhou are so grateful that they have spontaneously presented the Ten Thousand People's Umbrella to Your Majesty."

Zhou Shaoyu did not make any comments and presented the memorial directly to Emperor Hui.

Emperor Hui was overjoyed and breathed a sigh of relief. This was the happiest thing that had happened to him in the past few months.

Zhou Shaoyu came out of the imperial study and stood outside the hall, looking at the clouds that had been pressing on the horizon for months. A few rays of golden sunlight shone down, changing strangely and being very eye-catching.

Nanxing came over and handed him a small paper tube.

It was a letter from Xi Yan, the secret guard who usually hid in Yuehu Garden.

"Catch a robin that Shin-chan released alive and destroy the old man."

After reading the note, Gu Shaoyu twisted it in his hand, went to a corner, and lit it on fire.
