Gu Xuan and Song Chen got tired of it for a while, and then sent Song Chen back to Tinglan Courtyard, and went back to Mochiyue Courtyard by himself.
Then he started to get busy. Early in the morning every day, Gu Xuan followed Gu Lizhao to the official office of the Ministry of Industry, and then helped Gu Lizhao with some things.
After the day's off duty, Gu Lizhao went to the banquet.Because it was going to a not-so-good place like Xunfang Tower, Gu Xuan found an excuse not to follow.
Gu Lizhao also readily agreed that he would not go.
How can there be a reason why a father goes to piao and a son follows?
How embarrassing is not.
Gu Xuan walked back to Dingbeibo's mansion from the street outside the government office of the Ministry of Industry, and he thought as he walked: When can I get in and out with a special car?
Sometimes I have to walk after a day of exhaustion, which is indeed hard work.
But now he is just like the star's assistant, even if he has his own carriage, he can't sit in it.
Gu Xuan planned to go back and have dinner, sleep well, and then go on a date with Song Chen.
But when he stepped into the gate of Dingbeibo's mansion, he saw Mrs. Zhao.
Mrs. Zhao walked towards Gu Xuan, she was a little arrogant inside.I don't think highly of Gu Xuan.But he still saluted, Gu Xuan was very kind, and nodded to Mrs. Zhao.
He took the initiative to ask: "Mother Zhao, are you waiting for me on a special trip? But what's the matter?"
Lady Zhao said to Gu Xuan: "Fourth Young Master, Madam invites you to go over."
Gu Xuan smiled and said, "Please Mama Zhao to lead the way."
Mrs. Zhao turned around and led Gu Xuan forward, the corner of her mouth twitched contemptuously: Can you escape the fifteenth day if you escaped the first day?Do you think you can soar into the sky?Ah!
Gu Xuan was quickly brought to Zhao Wenjia's yard, entered the front hall, and saluted Zhao Wenjia who was sitting upright.
Looking at Gu Xuan, who is calm, introverted and capable, Zhao Wenjia really felt like a thorn in his throat.He had been following the master a few days ago, and she couldn't call him over.Gu Lizhao went out to drink flower wine today, she couldn't wait.
Gu Xuan didn't know what Zhao Wenjia was going to do to him again, he was very annoyed, but he didn't show any emotion on his face.
Zhao Wenjia said to Gu Xuan: "Sit down." Then he asked the maid to serve tea.
Gu Xuan thanked Zhao Wenjia and sat down, took a sip of tea, put it down, and asked, "Is there something your mother wants me for?"
Zhao Wenjia smiled and said to Gu Xuan: "I heard from the master that you plan to return to Dayun Mountain after celebrating the old lady's birthday?"
Gu Xuan said: "Yes."
Zhao Wenjia: "You are a good boy with filial piety. I thought you were just sending the master back, but I never thought that you still remember the old lady's birthday."
Gu Xuan said respectfully and modestly: "Father and mother are extremely filial, and a son is just following his parents."
Zhao Wenjia smiled strangely, and then said to Gu Xuan: "It's a good thing for you to respect filial piety. All the young masters and ladies in front of me copied a longevity scripture in front of the Buddha, and planned to enshrine it in Huangjue Temple together. The old lady Qianqiu. You were not in the mansion earlier, and during this time, I didn't know that you planned to celebrate the old lady's birthday before leaving, so I didn't tell you about it. "
"You are the only one who has not copied the Longevity Sutra in front of the Buddha, young lady of the mansion. I thought I was missing something, so I asked you to come over and see what you think. It's only ten days away. Do you copy or not?" Don’t copy? If you copy, I won’t let people go to the masters of Huangjue Temple to write for you. If you don’t copy, then the masters of Huangjue Temple will copy ten volumes of the Longevity Sutra for you and worship it in front of the Buddha. "
Gu Xuan almost laughed angrily.
There are ten volumes in one book of Longevity, and it would take him half a day to copy one volume, even with a water pen, let alone a brush.
This Zhao Wenjia's conspiracy failed and he directly resorted to conspiracy.
Gu Xuan got up and said to Zhao Wenjia: "Since I plan to celebrate the old lady's birthday before going back to Dayun Mountain, it is natural for me to copy the longevity scriptures myself to be sincere. Don't worry, mother, I will definitely celebrate the old lady's birthday. handed over to the mother."
Zhao Wenjia nodded after listening, "That's fine, your filial piety is commendable. Have you ever used dinner? If not, why not use it here?"
Gu Xuan said: "Meals have been prepared in the yard, I dare not bother my mother, my son will leave."
Zhao Wenjia was just being polite, if Gu Xuan really wanted to stay here for dinner, she would not be able to swallow her saliva.
Gu Xuan returned to Mochiyueyuan, looked at the dinner of one meat, two vegetables and one soup, and sighed.
Wang Dazhuang immediately asked: "My lord, is the food not to your liking? Shall I go to the kitchen and change some dishes for you?"
Gu Xuan waved his hand: "It's not about food."
Gu Xuan always eats healthy food, eat more vegetables and less meat, drink soup first and then eat vegetables, chewing slowly.Holding chopsticks and eating slowly, Wang Dazhuang looked at him preoccupied, and couldn't help asking: "Master, it's not about the food? What's the matter?"
Gu Xuan told Wang Dazhuang about Zhao Wenjia looking for him just now, but Wang Dazhuang couldn't say a word, his eyes were a little red.I don't know how long it took before I said to Gu Xuan: "Young master, it's too much to suffer here. Young master, you are a man of great ability. Let's go back to Dayun Mountain. If you don't come back, you won't have to suffer such a crime. "
Gu Xuan sighed helplessly, and then said: "You are thinking too simply. It is useless to rely on escape if you are not strong. A tiger goes from the forest on the left to the forest on the right, it is still a beast King. But a rabbit can only be a delicious meal from the forest on the left to the forest on the right.”
Wang Dazhuang asked: "But the Longevity Sutra, you have to copy one volume all night, what should you do?"
Gu Xuan sighed: "What else can I do if I copy it?"
As long as you can't copy to death, copy to death.
Gu Xuan slowly picked up the rice, thinking: Zhao Wenjia, Zhao Wenjia!I've been treating you as long as I can, but it's too much for you to be so persistent.
The old lady's birthday banquet is only ten days away, and Gu Xuan has to work with Gu Lizhao, so he has time to copy the longevity scriptures at night.
You have to go to the Buddhist hall to recite.
On this day, Gu Lizhao rested and Mu, and Gu Xuan also followed Xiumu. From daytime to midnight, he couldn't hold on anymore. He couldn't stretch himself completely. The pen fell to the ground, and Gu Xuan fell asleep directly on the table.And Wang Dazhuang, who promised to accompany Gu Xuan at night, fell asleep long ago.
Until early in the morning, Gu Xuan overslept. When he got up, he saw the gloomy outside, and thought it was not dark.But seeing that the candles were completely burned, he knew that it was a night.Hearing the movement, Wang Dazhuang got up and walked to Gu Xuan's side. He was about to speak, but there was a thunder from the sky, and there was a loud bang!
Wang Dazhuang hurriedly said to Gu Xuan: "My lord, I'll go get the coir raincoat and umbrella, you wait here."
Gu Xuan nodded.
Not long after Wang Dazhuang left, two people walked into the Buddhist hall. Gu Xuan was slightly surprised: Why did Song Chen come?
Gu Xuan hesitated for a while, planning to avoid it.
Because once he meets Song Chen, Song Chen will definitely ask him why he is in the Buddhist hall?What are you doing in the temple?Then he will definitely answer.He didn't want Song Chen to know that he was struggling in Dingbeibo mansion and had a hard time, even if he didn't know that it was him.Therefore, he avoided it as much as he could.
He hid behind a large pillar, which was more than enough to hide him, but also in the blind spot so that no one could see him.
When Song Chen arrived at the corridor, Yuan Bao said to Song Chen, "Your Highness, you wait here for a while for the servant, who has gone back to fetch the coir raincoat and umbrella."
Song Chen hummed.
Yuan Bao left quickly, and Song Chen was standing on the corridor, the wind was blowing violently, when he stepped into the Buddhist hall, the smoke was blown away immediately.
Song Chen didn't catch the first step, and then he closed his eyes suddenly. The wind stimulated his eyes to shed tears, and he didn't dare to open them again.
Song Chen frowned and was a little unhappy, but he didn't care too much. He walked slowly to the Buddha, knelt down, kowtowed and said, "Today's fifteenth, I'm here to kowtow to you again. I hope you will bless my eyes to see Got to see something."
Behind the pillar, Gu Xuan quietly looked at Song Chen who had his eyes closed tightly.
His eyes were closed, not knowing what the pupils looked like.
But his eyelashes are long and thick.
This was the first time Gu Xuan saw Song Chen's entire face.
Want to touch his eyes.
Song Chen thought again: "Buddha, please bless my eyes to recover soon. I want to see what my sweetheart looks like. I like him very much. If I can't see what he looks like in this life, I will definitely be fine." Sorry, so sorry. I pray for the blessing of the Buddha..."
Gu Xuan lowered his eyes, his heart was sour and sweet.
Song Chen's personal eunuch Yuan Bao came over, picked up the smoked gauze that Song Chen had blown onto the Buddha statue table, tied it up for him, and helped Song Chen burn incense and pray to Buddha, then put on his coir raincoat, put on an umbrella, and went outside.
This is planning to go back to Tinglan Courtyard.
Gu Xuan stood behind the pillar, vaguely listening to the two talking.
Song Chen: "How long will it rain? Will the moon come out at night?"
Yuan Bao: "Your Highness, are you joking? It's raining so heavily, I'm afraid it won't last all day, how can the moon come out?"
Song Chen: "Oh." Sullen.
Gu Xuan looked back at the burning incense, frowned slightly, a little helpless and a little serious.
"Son!"
Wang Dazhuang came with an umbrella and coir raincoat, and after Gu Xuan put it on, he went out of Dingbeibo's mansion with the umbrella.
As he walked, he told Wang Dazhuang: "You should keep the Longevity Sutra I copied. Don't get it dirty or lose it. When the time comes, the old lady will live a long life. If I can't get this thing out, I will be in bad luck."
Wang Dazhuang: "But son, haven't you asked me to hire four people who can imitate your notes to copy the scriptures?"
Heavy rain crackled down.
Gu Xuan glanced at him: "That's just to be prepared. I can copy what I can copy myself, so that I can't make mistakes. By the way, there is one more thing to tell you."
Wang Dazhuang: "Sir, tell me."
Gu Xuan said: "Go and prepare some fresh pig's trotters, fly the water well, and wait for me to come back from duty to marinate the pig's trotters."
Wang Dazhuang: "!!"
Immediately excited.
"There is one more thing you need to do right away. Go to the stables and bring my big black over, and move faster."
Wang Dazhuang didn't know why, so he did it.
Gu Xuan hurried and ran into Gu An and Gu Lizhao at the gate.
Gu Lizhao looked at him, with a neutral smile on his face, and said, "I got up late today."
Gu Xuan took the initiative to help Gu Lizhao down the steps, his movements were natural and habitual, "It rained suddenly, my son turned back to get the umbrella."
Gu Lizhao groaned, and was helped by Gu Xuan into the carriage.
Gu An watched Gu Xuan squat down, tapped on the wheels of the car, checked the axle again, and then said to the driver: "The road is slippery in rainy days, and horses are easily frightened, so drive carefully."
The groom complied.
Gu Xuan helped Gu An to get on the carriage again, and after Gu An got on the carriage and sat down, he took note of Gu Xuan's actions in his heart, and thought: In the future, I should work hard like the fourth brother.
At this time, Gu Xuan hadn't gotten into the carriage yet, so Gu Lizhao opened the curtain and asked him, "Why don't you come up?"
Holding an umbrella, Gu Xuan saw Dahei coming over, held the rein and said with a smile: "In rainy days, I'm afraid of slippery roads, scared horses, and road congestion. My son will ride ahead to clear the way for his father. It's getting late, father, let's go?"
Gu Lizhao hummed.
I can't be satisfied!
He put down the curtain of the car, and Gu Xuan got on the horse, his movements were crisp and neat, and he was still holding a green oil-paper umbrella with bamboo leaves firmly in his hand.
After a while Gu Lizhao fell asleep, Gu An couldn't help but lifted the curtain to look at Gu Xuan, in the rain, Gu Xuan was riding on a horse, holding an umbrella, calm and introverted.
He is so meticulous and thoughtful in doing things, if he is a father, he will also like fourth brother.Gu An couldn't help thinking.
Gu Xuan didn't know that Gu An admired him more and more, and also wanted to learn from him.Otherwise, he would definitely say - no need!
Because Gu An's son is precious to his mother, and his aunt is blowing the pillow wind, so as long as he is himself, it is more important than anything else to be determined to make a name for himself in school.He had no one to help him, and was suppressed by the mistress, so he had to hold on to Gu Lizhao's life-saving straw, trying to please him everywhere.
After arriving at the official office of the Ministry of Industry, Gu Xuan went to Gu Lizhao's public house familiarly, to handle a series of chores and business.
Zheng Silian chatted with him.
Gu Xuan tidied up a scattered document on Gu Lizhao's desk, and while talking to Zheng Silian, he glanced at the document hastily.
"Fourth son, there is a new dish in Fuwang Building called..."
Before Zheng Silian finished speaking, Gu Xuan raised his hand, and Zheng Silian immediately shut up.
Gu Xuan read the document with serious eyes, and then asked Zheng Silian: "Is there any movement in the north?"
Zheng Silian was puzzled and shook his head: "What, what's the matter? Can there be any movement in the north? Even if there is movement in the north, we in Kyoto haven't heard the news."
Gu Xuan raised the document and said: "This is a letter from the officials at the Dayunshan Ferry who received the marble from the north, saying that the price of marble has increased by five taels of silver per ton."
Zheng Silian wondered, Dayun Mountain is further south of Kyoto, and the price of marble at the ferry has risen, so what does it have to do with the north?
"Fourth son, are you thinking too much? The rise and fall of goods is the most common thing. Besides, what can happen in the north?"
"Five taels of silver per ton is too much. Even if the ship capsizes on the road and the loss is too great, the supplier wants to raise the price. It is not the amount. Something must have happened in the north, and there is a problem with the mining or transportation of the stone. , There will be a substantial shortage in the market, and this will happen.”
Zheng Silian: "..."
Looking at Gu Xuan's frowning, he felt that Gu Xuan was worrying for nothing.
The current information is not developed, and Gu Xuan doesn't know what happened in the north.He also hoped it was just him being too sensitive and the subject didn't continue.
After Gu Xuan packed the letter, he wiped the table.I feel that the height of the table is a bit unstable. I squatted down to look at the floor tiles. Affected by the weather, the earth's crust, etc., one of the floor tiles protruded a little.Just not obvious.
Gu Xuan asked the people below to come over with a hammer and tap it hard.
Zheng Silian: "..."
Whenever he is able to put his heart into this matter, he may be able to rise one more liter.
-
After being on duty, at night in the big kitchen of the East Hospital of Dingbeibo Mansion, Gu Xuan was stewing pig's trotters, copying the longevity scriptures while stewing the pig's trotters.
This matter got to Mrs. Zhao's ears, and she passed it on to Zhao Wenjia. Zhao Wenjia immediately felt relieved, and two crow's feet appeared in the corners of his eyes.
Zhao Wenjia, while being served with milk and flower petals in his hands, smiled and said to Mrs. Zhao who was combing her hair: "He deserves to have today. Do you think I can't do anything to him if I work by the master's side? Oh, as long as I am the mistress One day, as long as I live for one day, I will not feel good if I want him to feel bad. What's the use of being a legitimate son? It's not a legitimate son who came out of my stomach. Divide the wealth and power of Beibo Mansion."
Mrs. Zhao combed Zhao Wenjia's hair with careless hands and feet, and said: "So Madam don't have to be angry with a lowly slave anymore. There are many ways to torture him. Sooner or later, he can't help but kneel down to Madam and beg for mercy." , Know your identity!"
Then he started to get busy. Early in the morning every day, Gu Xuan followed Gu Lizhao to the official office of the Ministry of Industry, and then helped Gu Lizhao with some things.
After the day's off duty, Gu Lizhao went to the banquet.Because it was going to a not-so-good place like Xunfang Tower, Gu Xuan found an excuse not to follow.
Gu Lizhao also readily agreed that he would not go.
How can there be a reason why a father goes to piao and a son follows?
How embarrassing is not.
Gu Xuan walked back to Dingbeibo's mansion from the street outside the government office of the Ministry of Industry, and he thought as he walked: When can I get in and out with a special car?
Sometimes I have to walk after a day of exhaustion, which is indeed hard work.
But now he is just like the star's assistant, even if he has his own carriage, he can't sit in it.
Gu Xuan planned to go back and have dinner, sleep well, and then go on a date with Song Chen.
But when he stepped into the gate of Dingbeibo's mansion, he saw Mrs. Zhao.

Gu Xuan didn't know what Zhao Wenjia was going to do to him again, he was very annoyed, but he didn't show any emotion on his face.

This is planning to go back to Tinglan Courtyard.

"Five taels of silver per ton is too much. Even if the ship capsizes on the road and the loss is too great, the supplier wants to raise the price. It is not the amount. Something must have happened in the north, and there is a problem with the mining or transportation of the stone. , There will be a substantial shortage in the market, and this will happen.”
Zheng Silian: "..."
Looking at Gu Xuan's frowning, he felt that Gu Xuan was worrying for nothing.
The current information is not developed, and Gu Xuan doesn't know what happened in the north.He also hoped it was just him being too sensitive and the subject didn't continue.
After Gu Xuan packed the letter, he wiped the table.I feel that the height of the table is a bit unstable. I squatted down to look at the floor tiles. Affected by the weather, the earth's crust, etc., one of the floor tiles protruded a little.Just not obvious.
Gu Xuan asked the people below to come over with a hammer and tap it hard.
Zheng Silian: "..."
Whenever he is able to put his heart into this matter, he may be able to rise one more liter.

After being on duty, at night in the big kitchen of the East Hospital of Dingbeibo Mansion, Gu Xuan was stewing pig's trotters, copying the longevity scriptures while stewing the pig's trotters.
This matter got to Mrs. Zhao's ears, and she passed it on to Zhao Wenjia. Zhao Wenjia immediately felt relieved, and two crow's feet appeared in the corners of his eyes.
Zhao Wenjia, while being served with milk and flower petals in his hands, smiled and said to Mrs. Zhao who was combing her hair: "He deserves to have today. Do you think I can't do anything to him if I work by the master's side? Oh, as long as I am the mistress One day, as long as I live for one day, I will not feel good if I want him to feel bad. What's the use of being a legitimate son? It's not a legitimate son who came out of my stomach. Divide the wealth and power of Beibo Mansion."
Mrs. Zhao combed Zhao Wenjia's hair with careless hands and feet, and said: "So Madam don't have to be angry with a lowly slave anymore. There are many ways to torture him. Sooner or later, he can't help but kneel down to Madam and beg for mercy." , Know your identity!"
