Reborn as a bride, pretending to be virtuous, the prince held his waist and regretted

Zhou Jin chuckled, his eyes showing a bit more disdain, "He is indeed an old fox, otherwise how could he have been dealing with the people of Black Dragon Village for several years?"

"He is an official appointed by the imperial court, and is surrounded by a den of bandits. He may be helpless, but he must know his place. If he had come to visit me within a few days of our arrival in Qingshui County, I could have let him make amends for his crime and forgive his past mistakes."

"But now I have been here for more than a month, and I have taken control of the city gates. Now I have even taken over the largest Black Dragon Village. He now remembers to visit me, but it's too late!"

Gu Xiling pondered for a moment and asked, "Husband, what are you going to do?"

Zhou Jin smiled and said, "When he comes, I will entertain him, drink tea and chat for a while. As for other things, I won't mention them."

"If you don't mention it, Lord Tang will." Gu Xiling chuckled, "Don't you want to take this opportunity to get more clues from Lord Tang?"

"You don't think that the bandits can control Qingshui County from top to bottom, and he is the only official who is now interacting with the bandits? For example, General Wu of the Border Army."

Hearing this, Zhou Jin sneered, "Just the mouth and the money, can't move me? I can get countless silver from those mountain strongholds."

"As for General Wu, he has many followers of my grandfather. They have been following him on the surface over the years, but have been dealing with bandits in private. But the relevant evidence has already been presented."

"The reason why we didn't touch him is because Qingshui County hasn't been properly handled. If we touch him, it is very likely that the border troops will kill each other. If we control Qingshui County and support it from both wings, he will have no choice but to surrender."

Gu Xiling didn't agree with what she said, "Husband, I always feel that you underestimate General Wu."

At this time, Zhou Jin was also quite curious, "Madam, you have never been to the Northwest, how do you know about General Wu? Could it be that you are a genius?"

Hearing this, Gu Xiling rolled her eyes, "What kind of ingenious plan? My master and senior brother once traveled here and wrote to me to tell me about some of the situations. Although I haven't been here, I have always felt that the collusion between officials and bandits to control Qingshui County for so many years is definitely not as simple as it seems."

"Since my husband came to Qingshui County, he has encountered many setbacks, but he has resolved them one by one. This is a good thing, but it also makes my husband and the people in Qingshui County feel that the whole county is just so-so."

"I always feel that you have only uncovered the top layer of cloth. There is still a lot of filth underneath, but it is too dark for you to see. So don't take it lightly."

Zhou Jin, who was originally somewhat proud, now looked solemn, "Madam, you are right, I can't be careless."

At this moment, someone outside the door announced, "Madam, there is an old man and a young man outside who want to see you, and they said they are your master and senior brother."

Hearing this, Gu Xiling was stunned and quickly stood up. She got angry so quickly that she sprained her waist.

Gu Xiling quickly hugged her stomach and said, "Oh, let them in quickly. I knew they would come."

Seeing his wife like this, Zhou Jin quickly reminded her, "My wife, be careful with your stomach!"

Gu Xiling patted her belly gently, "It's okay, I'm fine!"

In this life, without the trouble of her mother-in-law, she doesn't have those messy things and lives a comfortable life.

The process of pregnancy is not uncomfortable.

The baby in the belly will also know how to enjoy life and won't make people suffer.

Zhou Jin was surprised, "Madam, I have heard that you have a master and a senior brother. After so many years, we finally meet. We must entertain them well."

Gu Xiling nodded and smiled, "Of course. It can be said that without my master, there would be no me. When I was a child, my senior brother often brought me food and drink, otherwise I would have starved to death."

I thought about the joy I had while interacting with my master and fellow brothers.

Zhou Jin felt sorry for Gu Xiling, but was very confused, "Madam, why didn't your master take you away?"

Gu Xiling shook her head, "I don't know! In fact, I have asked, but Master, I have my own opportunities, and he can't break them rashly."

Hearing this, Zhou Jin pondered for a moment, then looked touched, "Madam, are you waiting for me? My grandmother said before that you would protect me from disasters, but I didn't quite believe it. But now that I think about it, it should be true."

"My dear, you have suffered so much for me. I will definitely treat you well and never let you down. Otherwise, I, Zhou Jin, will be worse than pigs and dogs, and I will be struck by lightning."

"This..." Gu Xiling smiled, it seemed that Zhou Jin had misunderstood.

The master never said it was about marriage.

But since Zhou Jin had misunderstood and looked like he was willing to die for her, Gu Xiling shut up.

Let it be a misunderstanding. Only a man with a conscience would do this.

I will never do anything to let her down in the future.

Gu Xiling held her belly, stood in front of the door, and looked forward to it.

Seeing Lai Xi leading a white-haired old man and a handsome man in green clothes in, Gu Xiling quickly walked down the stairs.

"Master, Brother, I miss you so much."

Zhou Jin was so frightened that his face turned pale, and he quickly stepped forward to support her, "My lady, be careful."

Gu Xiling was pulled by Zhou Jin, and her steps became more steady.

The old man was dressed like a Taoist priest, with white hair and beard, and looked like an immortal.

"You're already a mother, but you're still so lively." Qing Yunzi smiled and looked at his disciple carefully.

"I'm really happy to see my master." Gu Xiling smiled with tears in her eyes.

She really missed her master.

Qingyangzi's eyes were complicated, showing happiness, joy, heartache, and relief.

Qing Yangzi reached out and touched Gu Xiling's head, then looked at her belly, was slightly startled, and then laughed, "So that's it, so that's it!"

Gu Xiling was surprised, "Master, what's wrong? Is there something wrong?"

Qing Yangzi shook his head and smiled with relief, "No, everything is over. We are back on track and everything is fine."

While Qing Yangzi was talking to Gu Xiling, Senior Brother Chang Yun's eyes were fixed on Zhou Jin.

Zhou Jin felt a little embarrassed by being looked at, and bowed, "Brother, what can I teach you?"

Chang Yun did not answer, but turned his gaze to his junior sister. Seeing that she looked very good, he knew that she was living a good life. "No!"

Zhou Jin was stunned. It seemed that this senior brother was not easy to mess with!

However, since they are his wife's most important relatives, Zhou Jin respects them.

Even if the other party had a bad temper, Zhou Jin was too lazy to care.

You have to give face to your wife. Her senior brother is his senior brother.

The senior brother has a bad temper, and the junior brother endures it.

I couldn't bear it any longer and asked my wife to teach my brother a lesson.

Yes, just do it!

"Madam, Master and Senior Brother have come from afar, please come in quickly." Zhou Jin reminded, "They must have not had dinner yet after all the travels. Xiufang, ask the kitchen to prepare more dinner to entertain Master and Senior Brother."

Gu Xiling patted his head and said, "Yes, Master, Senior Brother, please come in quickly. Let's talk while we eat. Where have you been all these years?"
