The farmer has a mall

Chapter 84 Cui Yao Returns to Beijing
Sitting in the study, Cui Yanping listened to the report of his subordinate Lieutenant General Li, the shock in his heart could no longer be expressed in words.

From the trembling description of Lieutenant General Li, he thought of the tragic situation of Prince Ning's Mansion that day.

"My lord, this thing is really against the sky. I don't know where the lord got it. If it can be used by our Pingnan Army..."

Lieutenant General Li was so excited that his voice trembled.

Cui Yanping sighed.

If he was used by the Pingnan army, he would definitely be invincible on the battlefield, and no one can shake his position as Cui Yanping.

It's a pity that this thing is not his.

"You don't need to ask more about this matter, let everyone keep silent and don't spread it to the outside world."

He briefly mentioned the matter, and then asked: "I didn't go to the court today, how did King Ning react?"

Lieutenant General Li hurriedly said: "Prince Ning didn't have any special reaction, but today he was furious at the court, saying that General Gu destroyed his mansion and sent the imperial guards to arrest people."

Cui Yanping smiled when he heard the words, although Prince Ning's mansion is luxurious, it is incomparable with the imperial palace, King Ning just wanted to make use of it this time.

"Has anyone been caught?"

"No, the imperial guards have already returned to the palace, and I heard that they were very flustered when they left."

"Oh, do you know what happened?" Cui Yanping finally became interested.

This is strange, ever since Lu Zixiu, the commander of the bodyguards, betrayed the emperor and led the imperial army to help King Ning control the palace, his subordinates have become King Ning's personal soldiers, rampant and domineering, even court officials don't give face.

"It was Master Lu and his subordinates who were dragged into Prince Cheng's mansion without any resistance, and were not released until two hours later."

"It's just that the subordinate has already died, and there are no fatal wounds on his body, and Mr. Lu is unconscious, like crazy."

Cui Yanping was even more surprised when he heard this: "But King Sheng asked someone to do it?"

He and the emperor are brothers, so it's only natural to hate someone who betrayed his elder brother.

What's more, King Sheng has always been fearless. Compared with the emperor, the courtiers are more afraid of him.

However, to Cui Yanping's surprise, Lieutenant General Li shook his head and denied it.

"Prince Sheng was not in the mansion at that time."

Not in Fuchu?

Then it's not King Sheng, could it be Gu Yao?

Since Lu Zixiu can become the commander of the guards, his skills must be extraordinary.

It actually made him unable to fight back, so the old man is so powerful now?
Unexpectedly, Lieutenant General Li said: "It is said that General Gu's granddaughter did it."

Lieutenant General Li had a complex expression on his face. He had seen that little girl at the gate of the city before. She was a small person, and she didn't seem to be aggressive.

But Fang Tong died in front of her, she could still laugh at Yan Yan and make fun of the corpse.

As for today's matter, after he got the news, he personally went to King Sheng, and saw with his own eyes that the little girl threw a person away effortlessly.

When Cui Yanping heard that Gu Nanyan did it, he was silent for a rare moment.

Concubine Cui Gui mentioned that girl when she came here last time, saying that she saved Zhao'er's life several times, and she was very grateful in her words.

And this girl is very evil, there was something strange about Fang Tong's death last time, but unfortunately he still doesn't know what happened then.

Just as Cui Yanping wanted him to explain in detail, he heard the butler's voice at the door.

"Master, the young master is back!"

In the hall, as soon as Cui Yanping entered, he saw Cui Yao leaning on the stool, directing his servants to move things into the room.

Seeing Cui Yanping approaching, he didn't get up either.

Holding a piece of snack in his hand, he gnawed, and said with a playful smile: "The cook in the house is getting better and better. My son wants to eat drunk pork ribs at night, so my father asked the cook to make more."

Cui Yanping rubbed his forehead, he felt a headache when he saw Cui Yao.

"Sit down for me, what do you look like!"

This son has been spoiled by his mother, and he has no good shape on weekdays. He teases cats and dogs all day long. He beat and scolded him, but it didn't help at all.

Cui Yao wasn't afraid to see his father's cold face, he just sat up straight with a smile on his face, and continued to eat the snacks.

Su Shi came in from the yard, and said angrily: "There are no outsiders here, and Yao'er is very tired after coming back from a long distance, so don't talk about him."

After finishing speaking, he walked to Cui Yao's side and touched his face in distress.

"You child, you have been away for several months, and you don't even know how to send a letter home."

After finishing speaking, he ordered the maidservant behind him: "Go to the kitchen and tell them to make more of the young master's favorite dishes."

Cui Yao hugged Su's arm happily and said, "Mother loves me the most."

Su's intimacy with her son was very beneficial, and she reached out and tapped his forehead.

"I just know how to coax me. I know that mother loves you and it took so long to come back. I don't know if mother will be worried."

Cui Yanping smiled mischievously, at first he didn't dare to deliver the letter, after all he ran out secretly, for fear that his father would catch him back and beat him severely if he knew his whereabouts.

Later, Guose Tianxiang opened, and he was busy with the business in the store every day, so he forgot to deliver the letter.

Cui Yao glanced at his father with a guilty conscience, and saw that his face was quite peaceful, so he hurriedly said to Su Shi, "It's my son's fault. From now on, my son will stay by his mother's side to fulfill his filial piety, and he won't run around again."

However, Gu Nanyan said that he wanted to open a branch of Guose Tianxiang in the capital, and he had already arranged everything in Mingshan County, so he planned to stay in the capital this time when he came back.

He caught a glimpse of the boy coming in with a tray at the door, and hurriedly pulled Su Shi to sit down.

"My son brought back two carts of fruit from Mingshan, and they were all picked before leaving. Mother, hurry up and try to see if it's delicious."

The road from Mingshan to the capital is not close, and it will take ten days to get there at a fast pace, but it was a waste of his effort.

Seeing the red and green watermelons and strawberries in the tray, Mrs. Su was surprised and said, "Isn't this the fruit platter of Fumanlou?"

Cui Yao nodded triumphantly, then shook his head again.

"Fumanlou does have watermelons and strawberries, but honeydewed melons and pineapples are the first ones in the capital. Fumanlou will take seven or eight days to deliver them."

After finishing speaking, he picked up the silver stick, tied a piece of pineapple meat and brought it to Su's mouth.

Su Shi cheerfully chewed a few mouthfuls, and then his eyes lit up.

Without waiting for his son to hand over the second piece, he took the initiative to take it.

"This taste is very special, sweet and sour with a special fragrance."

It's not that Su has never eaten Fumanlou's fruit platter, but she seems to prefer the taste of pineapple.

Cui Yanping saw that his wife was eating deliciously, and smelled the unique fragrance of pineapple in the air, and he was also a little greedy.

It's just that it's not easy for him to grab food from a woman as a man, so he coughed lightly, stroked his beard and said to Cui Yao:

"For your filial piety, you still remember how much money your mother likes to eat fruit. I'll go to the cashier to get it later."

It's rare that this brat is sensible, and he can't be stingy.

"As for the two carts of fruit, take them to the cellar, don't spoil such expensive things."

It just so happened that he had to go around more with the officials of the DPRK and China recently, and they couldn't eat that much by themselves, so it was very decent to take it out as a gift.

Hearing this, Cui Yao rolled his eyes at his father.

What good thing do you want?
"Forget the money, I didn't spend any money anyway, but our family can only keep one cart, and I have to take the rest to the Zhenbei General's Mansion."

Gu Yunze's injury is almost healed, and he is sitting in Gu Nanyan's yard at this moment.

He learned from his grandfather what happened to Gu Nanyan in the past three years, and his heart ached.

Seeing that the originally innocent and lovely sister's temperament has changed drastically, her words and deeds are completely different from the past, and she only thinks that she was stimulated by these things, so she can't help feeling more sympathetic.

"Second brother has collected a lot of medical books for you in the past few years, and put them in your Shuyan Pavilion. When you go back, see what is missing, and second brother will find it for you."

Gu Nanyan nodded, looked at his jade-like face, thought for a while and took out an iron box from his sleeve.

"This is a medicine for removing scars. The effect is not bad. Apply it on the wound before going to bed and wrap it with gauze. You can wash it off early the next day."

Gu Yunze took it with a smile. Although it doesn't matter if he is a man with some scars, no one in the Gu family is intact.

But he couldn't bear to refuse his sister's kindness.

"Then the second brother will thank our sister Nan."

He took the iron box and handed it to the servant behind him.

"Go back to the yard and put it away, don't lose it."

The young man carefully held the scar-removing medicine, said yes, and backed out.

Gu Yunze looked at Bai Zhi and Bai Shao again, and said with a faint smile: "I have something to say with your miss, you go down first."
