The road of the farmer's fortune and the imperial examination

Chapter 496 Letters
The first is that the two formed an alliance for unknown reasons, and Xia Qing was working for the Fourth Prince.

But the fourth prince is hiding behind the scenes, giving the world the illusion that he is not recovering from his illness to deceive the world.In fact, he hid behind and controlled the court through Xia Qing.

The other is that the two are in a cooperative relationship, but not an alliance.This may sound like a contradiction, but it is not.Xia Qing and the fourth prince can cooperate in some matters, but they still have their own ideas and schemes against each other.

Gu Chengyu is more inclined to the latter, after all, Xia Qing will not be willing to vote under the command of the Fourth Prince.

As for the mysterious person, Gu Chengyu had already guessed it.There were so many people in total, the first thing he thought of was Xia Qing.

Guo Moruo looked at Gu Chengyu silently, as if he was thinking about something.Then he folded up the letter and returned it to her.

Looking at those white and flawless hands under the candlelight, she still couldn't react.What do you mean, don't you want to help?
She has also read this letter. It looks like it is well written, and there are many clues. In fact, it is all her grandfather's guess. She read it through the letter and got a half-knowledge, so when she took it out, she was also hesitant and worried.

But her grandfather told her that, to her, it seemed that there was nothing of value in it.But to benefactor, it is very important.It was her grandfather's words that gave her a little courage to raise this condition.

"My benefactor is."

"I agree." Gu Chengyu gave the result before Guo Moruo finished speaking.

This letter is very important to Gu Chengyu, at least for the fourth prince who has never met, he has already maintained a bit of vigilance.

Guo Moruo didn't expect Engong to agree, and the big stone in his heart finally fell.No matter how calm she is, she is just a 12-year-old girl!Originally, she had received so many blows in the past few days, and had so many things on her mind, which almost made her collapse.

If it wasn't for her two younger brothers, she would rather be with her mother and the others to overcome the daily suffering.Even if she died, as long as she was with her mother and the others, she would not be afraid.

The mental tension of the past few days suddenly relaxed, and I just felt very sleepy.She didn't sleep at all in the past few days, worrying day and night, so she was much haggard.

She suddenly remembered that her mother always suspected that she could eat, and laughed at her for eating her body raw into a ball.Just before this happened, her mother still restrained her and forbade her to eat too much, saying that she was going to talk about her husband's family soon, and that she would not look good if she was too plump.

Unexpectedly, in just a few days, her figure became thinner, but her mother couldn't see her anymore.Thinking of the days when he was with his grandparents in the mansion, Guo Moruo finally couldn't help it, sobbing softly.

When she cried, Gu Chengyu was stunned. Didn't she hold back it before?Why are you crying now?Gu Chengyu was always insensitive to the woman's tears, so he could only dryly advise her.

"Miss Guo, if you think about everything, you can always pass. Besides, you still have two younger brothers to take care of, so don't cry yourself to death."

While persuading Gu Chengyu, he thought that the curfew had been under half an hour now, and he had to go.

"Miss Guo, take care of yourself. I'm going to excuse you. I promise you, and I will never break my promise. It's not going to happen in a few days. After a few days, when the weather is calm, I will find a way to send you away."

It's getting late, and this is the girl's house after all, so it's not easy for him to stay too long.

When Guo Moruo heard the words, he hurriedly took out his handkerchief and wiped away his tears, feeling a little embarrassed.She didn't expect that she would cry in front of a stranger. Maybe it was because she had been depressed for too long, or maybe it was because her benefactor was still easy to talk to.

"I made my benefactor laugh, but the little girl has something else to ask."

Gu Chengyu had no choice but to stop, "Please tell me, girl."

"I don't know how the imperial court dealt with the Guo family? What happened to the Guo family?" Guo Moruo finally asked this matter with a feeling of anxiety.

This matter has been lingering in her mind, tormenting her so much that she cannot sleep at night.If she didn't ask, she would miss it for the rest of her life, but if she did, she was afraid that she would not be able to bear such a bad news.

Gu Chengyu looked at Guo Moruo, who was already on the verge of collapse, and couldn't bear it.The truth is too cruel, and I don't know if she can bear it.

"In the Guo family, the men will be executed, and the women will be used as military prostitutes."

As soon as Gu Chengyu finished speaking, Guo Moruo felt like a bolt from the blue.Then his eyes went dark, and he fell backwards.

Gu Chengyu hurriedly stepped forward to catch her, sighed deeply, and ordered Ding Twelve to carry her to the back room and put her on the bed.Seeing that there are two little babies on the bed, one is more than five years old, and the other is still a milk baby, that is the male son left by the Guo family to inherit the incense.

I fed Guo Moruo a heart-clearing pill, and another pill that nourishes blood and nourishes qi. In fact, he was short of breath and didn't think about eating and drinking.

Even pinching someone would wake him up, Gu Chengyu felt it was unnecessary, so he just let the girl sleep for a while.

Gu Chengyu told Guo Moruo to have a doctor come over tomorrow, and he left first.Gu Chengyu just got his pulse, so it shouldn't matter.However, he is not a serious doctor after all.

Guo Moruo's identity was the shopkeeper's daughter, and her mother gave birth to her younger brother, who died of a hemorrhage.Ding Twelve is the elder brother, and the guard in the mansion has become a father, but the guard is not young, and he can give birth to such a big son and daughter.

Guo Moruo and the others would stay here for at least a month, and told them not to show their feet, Gu Chengyu brought Ming Mo to perform lightness kung fu and disappeared into the night.

After returning to Gu's mansion, Gu Chengyu lay on the bed after freshening up and sorting out the relationship between court ministers.

The next day, after Gu Chengyu finished practicing his calligraphy, Hua Lian's voice came from outside the study.

"Brother Mingyan, is your young master getting up? The slave family is here to congratulate you on your high school reunion."

The study room has always been guarded by Ming Mo and Ming Yan, and it is Ming Yan who is on duty today, so it must be Ming Yan who is asking this question.

"Wait a minute, girl, I'll let you know."

In the past two days, Hua Lian was still very interesting, so she didn't bother Gu Chengyu.It may be that it was normal to come to congratulate Gu Chengyu after hearing the news that Gu Chengyu had won Huiyuan yesterday.Everyone lives under the same roof, pretending not to know, or saying nothing, certainly can't justify it.

Gu Chengyu also knew what Hua Lian was thinking, so when Ming Yan entered the room to ask for instructions, he nodded.

Seeing Hua Lian enter the study, Gu Chengyu first asked: "Why did Miss Hua Lian get up so early? Are you still used to living in the mansion these two days?"

Yesterday, Gu Chengyu distributed happy money in the mansion, and even Hua Lian got a red seal, a little more than the servants, just to please.Speaking of this, I remembered that today I will hold a banquet in the mansion, and invite those who helped him to run around with the house, as well as relatives and friends to gather together.
