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

Gu Shaoyu said: "The case in Dali Temple is not complicated at all. It is just a gambling case involving a few bored people."

Xie Zhaozhao thought to herself: I hope it’s not that kind of thing.

"This group of people used to walk the chickens and dogs together every day and were quite harmonious. But one day, someone took a glass bottle that he had played with when he was a child."

That bottle was used when they were naughty kids and would urinate in it.

When we were kids, we bet on who could pee more, and whoever didn’t leak would win.

This time, they planned to play the game they played as children, but now there would be bets.

When Gu Shaoyu said this, Xie Zhaozhao found it both funny and unbelievable.

How did the Dali Temple officials hold back from laughing?

"They took the bottle and urinated into it one by one. The first few didn't leak and all the urine went in. But the last one was a tragedy."

When Gu Shaoyu said this, he looked at Xie Zhaozhao. Xie Zhaozhao was still confused. She actually didn't want to hear about this kind of thing. It was totally inconsistent with the ethics she had been taught.

"He put the bird in the bottle, and before he could pee, it got stuck!"

Gu Shaoyu still pretended to be serious when he said this, but Xie Zhaozhao was already blushing with shame: "Stop talking."

"He was stuck so tightly that the more he tried to pull it out, the harder it was. He was finally able to pull it out until oil dripped out. Then everyone said he lost."

Xie Zhaozhao covered her ears and didn't want to listen anymore.

Gu Shaoyu pulled her little hand down from her ears.

"I'm telling you about the case!"

"Hurry up and finish your sentence." Xie Zhaozhao looked around the room and found that there was indeed no one there, not even Bei Chen.

"Don't look at it, it's just the two of us."

Gu Shaoyu found it very amusing to see her acting like a thief.

"The other guys all won, and he gave all the money in his pocket back to those guys."

Originally, the matter would have ended there, but when the man’s wife heard about it, she was furious. He actually paid several hundred taels of silver as compensation. This was simply too much of an insult.

So the woman went to the Dali Temple to file a complaint.

The Dali Temple received such a bizarre case, so there were more people attending the trial this time than ever before.

"Guess what happened in the end? The woman won." Gu Shaoyu said, "She said angrily that if a man could urinate in a bottle without leaking when he was a child, it was a skill. But if he could urinate in a bottle easily when he grew up, it meant that the man was not good enough. That was the real loss."

"Everyone in and outside the hall was discussing whether they had won or lost. In the end, the conclusion was that the one who got stuck was the real winner!"

Gu Shaoyu was still talking seriously when Xie Zhaozhao took a feather duster and started beating him.

He drew the curtain and went into the inner room, locking him out.

Gu Shaoyu quickly stretched one leg in to hold the door. Xie Zhaozhao didn't dare to use force, so he squeezed in and hugged her for a long time to comfort her.

Finally, he found a bottle and said that he had only known how to study hard since he was a child and had never urinated in a bottle. He wanted to experience the happiness of being a man himself.

Let’s see if the bottle can catch the bird…

Sure enough, it’s stuck!

Xie Zhaozhao looked at him and was unable to express her feelings in words. Who could have thought that the top scorer in the imperial examination at the age of 16, who entered the officialdom at the age of 17, and entered the cabinet at the age of 25, the most powerful minister in Daqian, Lord Gu, was so childish at heart!

When Xie Zhaozhao saw that he couldn't pull it out, he laughed so hard that he fell on the bed and pounded it.

I covered my head with the sheet, afraid that someone would hear me laughing out loud.

By the time Gu Shaoyu smashed the glass bottle with a hammer, Xie Zhaozhao's hair was already messy from laughing.

Gu Shaoyu was more worried that the card might be broken, and he wanted to try whether all functions were still available, so the two of them started to experiment.

After struggling for a long time, Gu Shaoyu finally said seriously: "I understand. Next time when I try, I must not use glass."

Xie Zhaozhao's arms were limp, and he hit him with a pillow for a while.

Gu Shaoyu dodged and begged for mercy: "I just want to be the most real and unpretentious person in front of you."

Xie Zhaozhao stopped.

Gu Shaoyu quickly cleaned himself up, put on his usual thin silk shirt, made himself more comfortable at home, and gave the box of Emperor Hui to Xie Zhaozhao.

"what is this?"

Gu Shaoyu did not hide anything and told her that Emperor Hui wanted to invest with her.

"Your Majesty wants to control my route?"

"He wants to support you in building the trade route, but he can't do so publicly because he's afraid of attracting some people's attention, which would be extremely disadvantageous to you. He also probably wants the court to get a piece of the pie if your trade route is successful."

Gu Shaoyu said, "I didn't accept his two meanings. If he wants to invest, it should be purely for profit. Otherwise, even if he lends it to us, we should pay him back in the future with interest or rare items."

In short, Xie Zhaozhao's business route was explored by Xie Zhaozhao and was not controlled by anyone.

Gu Shaoyu's position as a cabinet minister was obtained through his own ability, and he did not need to give up his wife's interests to maintain the relationship between the monarch and his subject.

Xie Zhaozhao looked at Gu Shaoyu and was deeply moved.

He is a cabinet minister with tremendous power, but he does things in a methodical and logical manner. He always lays everything out on the table and does not engage in any conspiracy. His schemes are clearly overt.

He is calculating in everything, but he does everything open and aboveboard.

Even Emperor Hui, even Xie Zhaozhao, could not find any fault with him.

Xie Zhaozhao looked at the silver and thought that His Majesty was indeed rich, with a total of 200 million taels.

"His Majesty trusts you so much that he gave you so much at once." Xie Zhaozhao sighed, "If you hadn't refused so righteously, he would have bought out all my trade routes with this silver alone."

She, Yin Jinan, Li Yunmu, and Zhou Lingyin, all worked so hard that they felt they were extremely rich. With the 30 taels from Gu Shaoyu, they had more than 50 taels to play with.

That’s right, this time when she went to Xiandou, she also took out Gu Shaoyu’s 30 taels and gave them to Yunhe who went on the ship.

Only she, Yin Jinan and Li Yunmu knew about this matter; Zhou Lingyin and Lao Liao were not informed.

Yin Jinan sent two ships of naval escort, on the one hand for escort, on the other hand to seize the pirates' ships. Neither the captured ships nor the escort ships were going to return empty-handed.

The two escort ships were arranged by Dong Qin himself and were secretly filled with silk.

It is inconspicuous and does not take up much space, but it sells very well.

Right now, Your Majesty's 200 million taels cannot be wasted and must be used.

The Mid-Autumn Festival was approaching and the weather was still very hot. Xie Zhaozhao and Manman took a walk by the lake in the evening. In the afterglow of the setting sun, the trees by the lake were filled with the chirping of cicadas.

I ran into Xie Xiangxiang and her group head-on.

"Sister!"

"Aunt San!" Gu Jiaojiao smiled widely, with a pair of big eyes that looked innocent. "Aunt San, how could you bear to come out?"

Xie Zhaozhao also smiled and greeted him.

"Aunt San, this lotus is so fragrant. Can I pick one for you?"

"Let it grow where it should be. It would be a shame to pick it off." Xie Zhaozhao refused.

Xie Xiangxiang said, "The wife of the Duke of Xun sent me an invitation today, saying that she will hold a Mid-Autumn Chrysanthemum Party. Will my elder sister go too?"

Duke Xun is Yin Jinan's father, and the Crown Prince's wife is his sister-in-law Pei Yue. Pei Yue's father, Pei Kunfu, is a second-rank official in the court, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, and Xie Yu's immediate superior.

Xie Xiangxiang said: "Mother is going too. She wants to talk to the wife of Duke Xun. Several sisters in the mansion will also go."

When mentioning the girls in the mansion, Xie Zhaozhao suddenly remembered some things from his previous life.
