Reborn as the Savior of a Short-lived Father and Son
Chapter 83: Maximizing Benefits
Until Luo Feng hugged her with his little hands and feet, rubbed his head in her arms in a somewhat dependent manner, and Gu Qinghe patted his back from time to time, she didn't know when she fell asleep.
Anyway, when I woke up, I met Luo Feng's smiling eyes.
Seeing her wake up, Luo Feng jumped out of bed and pointed outside, "Daddy is here, and brought some delicious meat buns."
The buns are made by Grandma Wang herself. They have thin skin and rich fillings. The skin is even completely soaked with the gravy inside. The color is tempting and makes people drool just by looking at it.
When Gu Qinghe was washing up, Luo Feng's face was already covered in oil from eating the buns. She walked out reluctantly, glancing at Shao Wei stealthily.
Shao Wei naturally saw her like this, raised his hand to wipe his nose, and said softly: "Last night..."
Before he could finish his words, Gu Qinghe interrupted him hastily, "What happened last night?"
She stared at Shao Wei with a nervous look on her face and kept winking at him. Luo Feng was still here, so there was no way she could bring up last night's topic directly.
Shao Wei tried hard to suppress the corners of his lips that kept trying to rise, and continued: "There was news from Lizhou last night."
The bun in his hand almost fell to the ground. Gu Qinghe looked up suddenly, "What news?"
Shao Wei had previously arranged for people to lurk beside King Wu, but calculating the time, King Wu should not have arrived in Lizhou yet.
"I have already had people search Lizhou. When the King of Wu left the capital, there was indeed no one else with him except the King of Wu's wife. I have also had people carefully observe the servants and boys, and there is nothing unusual."
There are only two possibilities left. Perhaps King Wu has already transferred Lu Zhiyao to Lizhou and settled her there. Or perhaps Lu Zhiyao is still hidden in some corner of the capital, waiting for them to relax their vigilance before quietly transporting her there.
There is another possibility that he didn't mention.
That means Lu Zhiyao has long been dead.
If not, how could a person be hidden so deeply? Otherwise, as long as the King of Wu went to see her, there would always be some clues.
He looked at Gu Qinghe and swallowed the possibility.
"King Wu had someone prepare a house in Lizhou in advance. The location is quite remote, and the people he arranged to do the work were not from his own house. If my people had not been waiting there for a long time, I'm afraid they would not have been able to find this house."
In this way, the purpose of this house becomes obvious.
Shao Wei said, "I have people closely monitoring every move in the house. If they find your mother, they will take her out immediately."
This is good news, but Gu Qinghe was a little absent-minded, "So, is my mother still in the capital?"
"It's possible."
Gu Qinghe's eyes were bright. She was a little anxious, but also a little excited. "King Wu knew that we were looking for my mother, so he would definitely not leave my mother alone in the capital. And he was not sure when he could come to pick her up, so he would definitely find someone he could trust, preferably someone who knew my mother's identity and the relationship between him and her, and then entrust her to him. When the time is right, he would send her to Lizhou."
The two looked at each other and said a name at the same time.
"Yao Shiliang!"
Almost in an instant, an idea popped into Gu Qinghe's mind.
Since her rebirth, she has been advising herself all these days to proceed step by step and not be too radical. She is the only one left in the Chen family. Without her, no one can save her mother, and no one can help the Chen family redress its injustice.
Of course she is not afraid of death, but her death must be valuable. If it can bring her mother back, then death is not a bad idea.
She looked at Shao Wei, "Can you do me another favor?"
……
Perhaps it was because there was a glimmer of hope, even if it was very small, Gu Qinghe's mood improved visibly.
Yesterday she promised the Prime Minister's wife that she would go to the Prime Minister's residence today, and she had no intention of breaking the promise.
Shao Wei frowned when he found out. He knew Li Qiulian's character and knew she would definitely make things difficult for her, so he wanted to go with her.
This request was naturally rejected by Gu Qinghe.
Standing at the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Gu Qinghe's eyes were filled with coldness.
Compared to the tearful recognition drama, Gu Qinghe prefers to maximize the benefits. During this period, she asked Mingxuan a lot about the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Naturally, I also found out some things from Uncle He and Aunt He.
From these people's accounts, Gu Qinghe basically understood the truth about why the Prime Minister's wife gave birth to a child in the wild.
She certainly didn't feel that the Prime Minister's wife owed her anything, and accordingly, she didn't expect any recognition drama.
The only family members she considers to be her parents and Chen Qingshan.
But Li Qiulian insisted on bumping into her without any eyes, so Gu Qinghe certainly couldn't just avoid her.
When the servant at the door learned the purpose of her visit, he looked at her with disdain. It was obvious that Li Qiulian had already informed these servants in advance.
The servant said, "Wait here, I'll go and inform them."
She didn't know how long she waited at the door before the boy came back and looked at her with a condescending look, "Come with me."
Gu Qinghe followed silently. When they arrived at the residence of the Prime Minister's wife, Li Qiulian was there too. The mother and daughter looked at each other. Li Qiulian walked towards Gu Qinghe and said, "Everyone says that you are a great doctor. Please take mother's pulse and see if there is anything that needs to be treated."
"Yes." Gu Qinghe stepped forward, took out the pulse pillow and was about to take the pulse of the Prime Minister's wife, but his shoulder was suddenly pushed hard, followed by a loud slap in the face.
"I don't know where this kid came from. He has a mother but no mother to teach him. He has no manners at all. He didn't even know how to show courtesy to the Prime Minister's wife. He is so outrageous!"
Gu Qinghe lowered his eyes and licked the corner of his lips that was slightly bruised due to the slap just now with the tip of his tongue, hiding the slight smile in his eyes.
Great, that's it.
She looked up, the emotions in her eyes had already switched properly, just the right amount of stubbornness, but it seemed to be suppressed by the thought of settling the matter peacefully. She saluted to the Prime Minister's wife somewhat helplessly, and then looked at Li Qiulian, "Can I help the Prime Minister's wife feel her pulse now?"
Li Qiulian laughed out loud, "You don't really think that I called you here just to ask you to help my mother with her medical treatment? My mother's body is being taken care of by the imperial doctors in the palace, so why would she need a country doctor like you? I just called you here to see how capable you are, but you dare to flirt with Shao Wei so shamelessly."
Gu Qinghe was neither humble nor arrogant, and pursed her lips, "The relationship between me and General Shao is just that of distant relatives. Miss must have misunderstood."
"Misunderstanding?" The anger in Li Qiulian's eyes could no longer be suppressed. That day in the Princess's Mansion, Shao Wei's eyes were glued to her, and she said it was a misunderstanding?
