Bold, how dare you break Ben Hou

When Qingzhi dragged his exhausted body back home, he saw that everyone was leisurely and leisurely busy with their own activities, no one paid attention to him, and did not notice his return.

"Ahem!" Wang Dali held his hair in a crooked bun, and then deliberately coughed to attract everyone's attention.

"Well, I came back earlier than expected." Gu Jixiu closed the book in front of him, stared at him with a smile, and even Fang Fu and the two laughed beside him.

Ruyan, who was still standing in the corner, felt a little sorry, and wanted to go up to pay Qingzhi's peace, but she was afraid of Gu Jixiu's presence, so she wrung her hands together, feeling very entangled in her heart.

"Ah!" Qingzhi also saw the "instigator" who made him suffer so much, and waved at her: "You also followed me back? Just right! I did this because of you, don't you need to come over?" Say a few words?"

Ruyan wanted to walk towards Qingzhi, but she heard Gu Jixiu saying beside her: "I don't remember that she was the one who made Wang Dali crawl here!"

Qingzhi hated his teeth itching, pushed Gu Jixiu away, picked up the tea in front of him and drank it down: "Laughing?! Are you still laughing?! It's all because of you! Do you know it's summer now? In the Yanyu Building, I was hugged by two people who add up to a hundred years old and did not let go! The clothes are so cumbersome, with three floors inside and three floors outside, I almost melted! Eh—” After drinking Qingzhi of the tea wiped his mouth, still holding the teacup in his hand, slightly surprised.

Gu Jixiu reached out to take the teacup for him, and said to Li Shun, "Go change a cup."

"After drinking it, I realized that if this is hot tea, it would be difficult! It's okay!" Qingzhi used his hand as a fan and said while fanning the wind.

Li Shun brought another cup of tea, Qingzhi opened it and saw that it was also lukewarm? !

Scratching his head, he didn't say anything in the end, took the towel handed by Lan Sheng, and wiped his face clean.

"Although Xu Yi will take care of the rest, after all, it involves Zhen, Lan Sheng, and you can go to Fuyi Mansion to have a look later." Seeing that Qingzhi calmed down, Gu Jixiu put away his mentality of teasing him just now, Only then did he start to talk about the serious matter: "Although there is no reason to ban places like Yanyu Tower, at least it can make them restrain themselves a little and make an example of them."

Fang Lansheng said yes, and was about to go out, but was stopped by Fu Yanxin, who also begged Gu Jixiu for his life, and wanted to go to Fuyi Mansion together to assist in the investigation.

Gu Jixiu looked at Qingzhi for a few seconds, then nodded immediately.

The two answered in unison and walked out again, while Qingzhi stood up seemingly unintentionally, and stood between the two of them. When the two of them passed by him, they clapped each other's hands with his left and right hands respectively. .

"Ahem..." After both Fang and Fu left, Qingzhi sat back on the stool again, and Gu Jixiu said as if he didn't see anything, "It's all taken care of?"

"Ok?"

"With the two of them?"

Qingzhi's face is a bit uneasy. After all, he has become a villain, but he still wants to be even more villainous. He just wants to hide this matter in his heart. He knows it well, and he doesn't want others to be so naked. = Bring it to the table and talk about it, especially the three of them!

But Gu Jixiu will not be a person who can make Qing Zhi feel at ease.

"I'm the one who helped you with the ten taels of gold. Is this how you treat your creditor?"

"When did you pay me the golden taels?"

Gu Jixiu pointed to Ruyan who was still standing in the corner: "Didn't you redeem her?"

"you--"

When Gu Jixiu achieved his goal, he naturally smiled even more happily.

"Forget it, the left and right are also the ones you redeemed—" Qing Zhi put his hands behind his head, raised his feet and said to Liu Fu, "Go, wash us some fruits."

"Wait a minute." Gu Jixiu suddenly said, although he didn't look at Ru Yan, the words were obviously addressed to her: "You go."

"Ah...Hou Ye, let me go." Ruyan nodded hurriedly, rushing in front of Liufu, unexpectedly one of them didn't pay attention, tripped over her skirt, and fell towards Qingzhi.

Fortunately, Qingyan was quick to hold her steady so that she didn't fall to the ground.

"It's to redeem a useful person." Gu Jixiu smiled thoughtfully, Qingzhi let go of Ruyan, waved her to follow Liufu out to wash some melons and fruits, and then turned back and shrugged at Gu Jixiu. Shrugged: "Since when did your eyesight become so poor? You can't tell the difference?"

Gu Jixiu said "oh", but didn't continue.

When he came back from Yanyu Building with Ruyan, he found out that the woman in front of him who sold herself in a brothel was really just like an ordinary friend to Qingzhi, without any other meaning, but to his brother-in-law——

"Why did you become acquainted with Qingzhi?"

"There were some misunderstandings. I believe the emperor must have known about it. After the misunderstanding, I became acquainted with Lord Hou. Later, Lord Hou asked me for help. After going back and forth, I became acquainted."

There were only Gu Jixiu and Ruyan in the carriage. Li Shun followed the carriage, worried and kept looking in the direction of the carriage.

"So after knowing Qing's identity, I tried my best to get closer to him, because he seems more likely to rescue you than Rong Ruo, right?"

Ruyan laughed out loud: "The emperor's guess is half right. At the beginning, I didn't think about asking Lord Hou to redeem my body, but... I did mention this incident by accident, and Lord Hou kept it in mind. , The concubine also has selfish intentions, and she once waited for Lord Hou with a glimmer of hope, so she never rejected Lord Hou."

"It's smart." Gu Jixiu didn't look unhappy in his eyes: "It's honest."

"Don't dare to be dishonest. If there is something wrong with the emperor, I'm afraid this concubine's life that has just been free will be ruined again." Ruyan straightened up and looked directly at Gu Jixiu boldly: "That's because I don't want to. Something to lose again!"

"Then——stay with me." These words are extremely tempting. If it were someone else, I would have kowtowed to thank you. After all, it is almost impossible for a woman in a brothel to let the emperor say that she wants her to stay. What can happen!As long as he can stay by the emperor's side, maybe he might fly to the sky.

But Ruyan was different, Ruyan buried her head deeply again, kowtowed on the ground and said: "If the emperor must keep this concubine in the palace, then this concubine wants to serve Lord Hou."

Gu Jixiu listened quietly, but did not answer after a long time.The carriage seemed to have stopped, but Gu Jixiu didn't intend to get out of the carriage, and Li Shun yelled twice outside, so he didn't dare to say any more.

The air in the carriage seemed to be frozen, bean-sized beads of sweat soaked Ruyan's forehead, she gritted her teeth and tried her best - it's not that she didn't think it would be like this, Gu Jixiu is an emperor, now he knows Ruyan once plotted against his cousin, and would not let her go easily.But now she is also homeless. Ruzhi has been adopted by a good family under Rong Ruo's arrangement. She doesn't want to easily appear in their life and disturb Ruzhi's hard-won stable life. Someone stretched out his hands to her at this time, and she would consider whether to hold them.

But the premise of this pair of hands is not Gu Jixiu's.

Although Ruyan is quite confident in herself, she is still unwilling to challenge Gu Jixiu.

"It's smart, and knows how to choose."

Ruyan didn't know whether Gu Jixiu's words were praise or derogation, so she could only continue to bury her head deeply: "Master Hou is so kind, Ruyan dare not forget."

In the end, only Gu Jixiu laughed, and he didn't give her an answer until he got off the car.

"I remember that in your mansion, there don't seem to be many female relatives."

Qingzhi rolled his eyes, did he not remember?He has discovered this problem a long time ago. I don't know if it's the little Houye's old mother who has a problem, or the little Houye. The servants in the Baili Houye's mansion are almost all men, except Liufu Sunshu and other special groups. , and each of them has beautiful features, red lips and white teeth.However, there are very few female relatives, and some of them are as temperamental as Chunhong.

And after he took over the baton from the young master and lived in the Hou's Mansion, he also asked Gu Jixiu for his opinion that he wanted to recruit more female relatives in the Hou's Mansion so as to balance the yin and yang in the mansion.Unexpectedly, Gu Jixiu agreed wholeheartedly, and said that Qingzhi didn't need to worry about this matter, and he would come to arrange it.

But the female relatives arranged here are more terrifying than Chunhong, and worse than Liufu.

Qingzhi was frightened, and sent them all back to Gu Jixiu. Since then, he no longer mentioned the idea of ​​recruiting female relatives.

"Then take her back!" Gu Jixiu dipped his fingers in water and wrote something on the table: "After all, I can't always be by your side, and Lan Sheng and Tuizhi... are the same, always There must be someone who can be by your side, and when you have something, he can help you solve it together. Golden taels still have some effect, at least the brain is good."

Qingzhi understood that he was about to follow Gu Jixiu back to Chang'an, and this time, he really wanted to "return to Chang'an", and he was ready to live on as "Baili Qingzhi"— — But as far as his personality is concerned, if no one is around to remind him from time to time, it is easy to fall into the loopholes, and Ruyan is a good candidate to help him

A helper who can keep a secret is really rare.

"You kid——" Qingzhi stretched his hand around Gu Jixiu's neck, pretending to pinch him: "Do you not believe me? At least I have fooled many people with my acting skills!"

"Really?" Gu Jixiu smiled: "Don't say it's me and the two of them, even the little uncle—I'm afraid you haven't lied to me!"

Qingzhi's hand froze, he let go of him and said, "Who said that? He never told you, how do you know? Hey, what are you writing?!"

Gu Jixiu knew that it was a topic that could be changed, so he didn't expose it, but just spread it out for Qingzhi to see.But because of the summer, the words written in water droplets quickly evaporated, but with just a glance, Qingzhi had already firmly engraved those words in his heart.

"There is a loquat tree in the pavilion, which was planted by my wife when she left. Now the pavilion is like a cover."

"Don't you think it's too hot in summer? The loquat trees have grown leaves, but they can return slowly."

Qingzhi held Gu Jixiu's hand and responded softly: "Okay."
