Dressed as the sister of the runaway heroine

Chapter 104 Compromise
Politics is all about compromise.

In fact, what she wanted to say before coming here was not limited to this.

When Gu Heng came out of the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Eunuch De sent her out in person. Eunuch De said, "Master, it's not that the emperor doesn't want to clean up the world, nor..."

Eunuch De has always been cautious in his words and deeds, but he said these things to her today.

Gu Heng was suddenly a little surprised.

Eunuch De hurriedly said: "This slave is too talkative."

After the old man finished speaking, he asked a young eunuch to send Gu Heng out of the palace.

Waiting for Shen Qiu outside, Shen Qiu yawned and said: "Little county lord, you really know how to pick a time, I should have a rest tomorrow, under normal circumstances, I should be in the brothel right now."

Gu Heng rolled his eyes.

"That's really wasting your precious time."

Shen Qiu chuckled.

"You still have to delay, this time in Beizhili to suppress the bandits, I have to protect the little county master Zhouquan."

Gu Heng didn't want to talk too much with this guy, she went outside and took a breath of the cool night air.

Although I didn't tell Bao Zheng beforehand, it was still a chance for him.

Back at the mansion, Gu Heng fell asleep sullenly.

But Yang Youye stood in front of her window and said, "Let's go to Laozhuang tomorrow."

Gu Heng replied in a daze.

Early the next morning, Gu Heng dressed neatly and went to Zhuang Xuexue's mansion together with Yang Youye.

Zhuang Xuexue was a simple man, never married, and had no concubine. There was only one old servant in the house.

Seeing Yang Youye, the old servant said: "Mr. Yang, I haven't seen you for a long time."

It was rare for Yang Youye to show some real emotion in his eyes, he said, "Long time no see."

As soon as Yang Youye finished speaking, he saw an old man with white hair coming out of the room.

On weekdays, Zhuang Xuexue kept his hat on, but now he put it down, and Zhuang Xuexue grabbed Yang Youye's arm.

He sneered and said: "You are really willing to come out. When your father died because of you, and your wife was humiliated and hanged herself, you refused to come out. At that time, I thought, how cruel is your heart?"

Gu Heng couldn't help but look at Yang Youye, Yang Youye looked a little dazed.

Zhuang Xuejiao flicked his sleeves and walked into the house.

The inside of the house is very simple, but the identity of Zhuang Xueyuan cannot be seen.

Zhuang Xuexue handed Gu Heng the teapot, Gu Heng was stunned, Zhuang Xuexue scolded: "Go and pour a pot of tea for Teacher."

Gu Heng quickly stood up and went outside to make tea.

The benevolent old servant took the teapot with a smile, and said to Gu Heng, "County Master, it's fine for the old slave to come."

Gu Heng hurriedly followed the old servant to the kitchen, and she asked, "Grandpa, do you know Master Yang?"

The old servant smiled and said, "He is Miss' husband-in-law, so I naturally know him."

This sentence contains a lot of information. It is possible that Yang Youye is Zhuang Xuexue's son-in-law. Gu Heng was extremely curious.

The look of Gu Heng scratching his heart and liver really made the old servant laugh.

"Miss is not Zhuang Xuexue's daughter. Xuexue never married. Miss is Xuexue's apprentice. It's a pity..."

At this time, there was a noisy sound in the room, as if something had been thrown.

The old servant handed the teapot to Gu Heng and said, "Hurry up and send it over."

Gu Heng hurried over to deliver the tea, only to see a mess on the ground, Yang Youye was silent, Zhuang Xuejiao was out of breath.

Gu Heng couldn't help but said: "The tea is here, let's put out the fire."

Zhuang pedant took a deep breath.

"If you want to do this wholeheartedly, then I have nothing to say, but don't get others involved. A madman like you can't have relatives and friends."

Yang Youye said: "Don't worry, this girl's fate is hard."

The corner of Gu Heng's mouth twitched suddenly.

Zhuang Xuexue took out a large box from the side.

"Your father's relic, the old man treats you with the utmost benevolence, so you can do it yourself."

Yang Youye took the box and said, "Thank you father-in-law."

Zhuang Xuexue ignored him, Yang Youye handed the box to Gu Heng, Gu Heng took it so heavy that he almost lost his waist.

Zhuang Xuexue sneered.

"see a visitor out."

Gu Heng walked forward with difficulty holding the box, and she said, "Master Yang, I'm a girl, I can't carry it."

But Yang Youye kept going forward.

Fortunately, Jin Yiwei, who was protecting Gu Heng in the dark, couldn't stand it anymore.

Come out and help Gu Heng take the box.

Only then did Gu Heng walk up to Yang Youye, only to see that the eyes of this flirtatious old man were slightly red, obviously he was in a bad mood.

Gu Heng didn't know what to say.

Had to follow behind him.

When Yang Youye was imprisoned, he was 27 years old. He was extremely handsome and had a bright future. But when he got out of prison, he had already passed the best ten years of his life, and even lost his father and wife.

Thinking about it now, it's really sad.

After returning to the county lord's mansion, Yang Youye locked himself in the room alone, and Gu Heng didn't bother him.

She took Bauhinia out to find Bao Zheng.

When they arrived at the Tianshui shop in Tianshui Lane, Bao Yun happened to be there, so Gu Heng said, "Ayun, is your brother Muxiu today?"

Bao Yun's eyes lit up, and she said, "Yes, what are you looking for from him."

Gu Heng said with a bit of embarrassment: "I need to find him for some things."

Bao Yun put down the work in hand, pulled Gu Heng and ran outside.

She said happily: "You don't even know, my brother seems to be a different person now. I also bought a mansion for my brother, and many of my colleagues are going to match him."

Gu Heng was a little apprehensive. That official's doing this would probably be very detrimental to his official career.

But she really has no other suitable candidates.

Bao Yun took them to a private house. The house was not big, but it was cleaned very clean.

Bao Zheng was chopping firewood outside. Even after becoming an official, he was still very simple, but his temperament was indeed much better than before.

After Bao Zheng saw Gu Heng, his eyes lit up immediately, and he asked, "Miss Gu?"

A smile appeared on Gu Heng's face.

She walked to Bao Zheng's side and found some gossip.

"Brother Bao is really getting more and more energetic. After becoming an official, it really is different."

Bao Yun's face was full of joy, she said: "That's right, brother is now a Jinshi."

Gu Heng: "Brother Bao is really amazing."

Bao Zheng's expression was a little unnatural, and he asked, "What did Miss Gu come to see me for?"

Gu Heng said with some embarrassment: "That is, I went to see the emperor a few days ago, and the emperor ordered me to recommend someone. After thinking about it, I think you are very suitable, Brother Bao."

Bao Zheng's face changed back and forth, and he asked softly: "Then thank you Miss Gu."

Gu Heng hurriedly waved his hand and said, "But this job is not easy to handle..."

"Miss Gu, can you be more specific?"

Gu Heng really couldn't keep going.

"It's just an errand to offend people. The suppression of bandits in Beizhili is a temporary solution. The emperor wants Brother Bao to treat the root cause."

Gu Heng recommended Bao Zheng because he knew he would agree.

Bao Zheng said: "Thank you, Ms. Gu, this errand has been accepted by Bao."
