Chapter 26
In the study, Gu Hanzhang wrote a letter and handed it to Qin Feng.

Qin Feng walked out with the letter and met Zhaocai at the door, the two nodded slightly at the same time.

"Master Shizi, concubine Shizi accepted those two people." Zhao Cai said as he entered the door.

Gu Hanzhang put down his pen casually, his expression unchanged.

"Where is the arrangement?"

"The servant has already asked, the imperial concubine arranged for Lan Xin and Lan Cao to sweep in the yard, and they were not allowed to enter the inner room."

Hearing this, Gu Hanzhang didn't say much, and talked about business again.

"Go to the Ministry of Criminal Justice and bring me the dossier that Dali Temple sent yesterday."

Zhao Cai nodded in response, "Yes, my son."

Gu Hanzhang joined the Ministry of Criminal Justice last year, but because of his age, even if he has the status of Zhenbei Houfu, it is only a vain job, and everyone does not take this prince seriously, thinking that he is only here to coat gold.

In the beginning, Gu Hanzhang really didn't show anything, and he didn't even care about it at all. He had nothing to do except drinking tea all day long.

The people in the Ministry of Punishment are unwilling to delegate power, Gu Hanzhang knows it well and is not in a hurry, but it is really a last resort, so he still has to respond.

Until a massacre occurred in You'ai Village, and a family of six died in a miserable state.

This matter was originally an unsolved case, and the police investigated it for a long time without any results. When Dali Temple was in a state of desperation, it happened that Gu Hanzhang and Chengfeng passed by Youai Village.

After that, Gu Hanzhang searched for clues, and he actually solved the outstanding case, so that later, whenever people in Dali Temple encountered troublesome cases, they would subconsciously look for Gu Hanzhang.

In the past few days, when Gu Hanzhang was resting, the files from Dali Temple had to be sent to the Ministry of Punishment first, and then he made plans after Gu Hanzhang returned to the Ministry of Punishment.

And Gu Hanzhang didn't intend to read the file at first, but accidentally got some news, and it was related to the prince behind them, so he asked Zhaocai to get it.

It was also for this reason that the letter Qin Feng sent just now was sent to Cheng Feng.

Gu Hanzhang stood in front of the window, facing Chaoli's room.

At this moment, the windows of that room were closed tightly, so he couldn't help but think of Chaoli's angry behavior after the two people's eyes met.

For some reason, the obviously rude behavior seemed to make the thread in Gu Hanzhang's heart fluctuate slightly.

Just when Gu Hanzhang was about to take a break, he suddenly saw a plate of grapes on the table.

Now that Daqi is in winter, the grapes are not from Daqi, but a tribute from Xifan.

The emperor was very concerned about Zhenbeihou's mansion, so he rewarded some of these grapes to the Hou's mansion, but because the quantity was not large, only the courtyard of Princess Dessau in the mansion and Gu Hanzhang here had them.

Old Hou Ye Gu Yuan doesn't like to eat these things, his portion is for Gu Hanzhang to eat.

"Come on."

Hearing Gu Hanzhang's voice, a servant stood at the door.

"What's your order, my lord?"

Gu Hanzhang looked indifferent, "Send this plate of grapes to Shi Zifei, tell her, and apologize."

"Yes, my son."

The servant was actually very puzzled, after all, the son and the concubine Shizi were only separated by a pond, even if they spoke louder, the other party could hear them.

If the son really offended the concubine, wouldn't it be better to send it over by himself?
After thinking about it, he attributed this to Shizi's thin skin.

In fact, it is not the case, Gu Hanzhang is not embarrassed to go, but he does not want to see Chaoli's cold eyes.

As for why he didn't want to, Gu Hanzhang didn't intend to delve into it.

Everything, the overall situation is the most important thing, and the personal relationship between children should not cause him to be tied down.

On the other side, when the grapes were placed on Chaoli's table, complexity flashed in her eyes again.

Gu Hanzhang is not picky about food, and he didn't particularly love fruits in the past. Grapes are one of the rare fruits he is passionate about.

The grapes in front of him were seen by Chaoli in his previous life, they were a tribute from Xi Fan.

Of course, in the previous life, Chaoli also ate it half a year after she got married, but it was at a palace banquet, and it was not given to her by Gu Hanzhang.

In the next two years, Gu Hanzhang would give her some grapes.

I didn't expect that Gu Hanzhang would send over a plate full of it today, did he not save any?

Also, the two words he asked the boy to convey: apology.

Are you sorry for misunderstanding that she is not Chaoli, or are you sorry for the disappointment of her full love in the past?

"Miss, according to this servant, the prince doesn't seem to be that bad to you." Tsing Yi interrupted Chao Li's daze.

Chao Li came back to his senses and shook his head.

"He just regards me as the concubine of the Zhenbeihou Mansion, but this grape is a rare item." Chao Li smiled.

"By the way miss, just now the maidservant went to Shaohuayuan. Madame told miss to prepare in advance. Five days later, Mrs. Guo, the mother of Minister of Household Affairs, will have her [-]th birthday. Don't let miss lose the face of the Hou family." Tsing Yi pouted.

In the eyes of Princess Dessau, her young lady is not good at all. If it wasn't for the queen mother's gift of marriage, she probably wouldn't want to take her out.

It's all right to go out, if you say don't lose the face of the Hou Mansion, you just look down on the identity of the lady, and feel that the etiquette is not enough for the lady to come out of a small family.

It's really annoying, and I don't see Princess Dessau being so polite, she looks like she has eyes on her head.

Chaoli paused slightly, thinking of the birthday banquet that day.

Speaking of which, the person in Gu Hanzhang's heart will also go.

In the previous life, when she attended this birthday banquet, she didn't know that Gu Hanzhang's sweetheart was her. Seeing her approaching her in a soft voice, she thought she was a good-natured boudoir lady.

In the end, she came to talk to her on purpose, also to test the relationship between her and Gu Hanzhang.

Thinking of her, she disdains towards her heart.

On the surface, he pretended to be gentle and kind, but in fact he was cruel.

Thinking to this point, Chaoli couldn't help but feel a little funny.

I don't know if Gu Hanzhang is too good or what the reason is, there are really all kinds of people who like him.

The only difference is that there is a person in his heart.

"Don't worry, I'll take care."

After attending the birthday banquet, it's time to manage her shop.

One year later, I will leave the Zhenbei Hou Mansion, and it will be difficult to return to the so-called home of the Chao Mansion, and it is better to set up my own family.

If he wanted to do this, he had to manage the shop where she was married.

Not long after, the voice of Lancao was heard outside the door.

"Concubine Shizi, the concierge sent you a letter, saying it was from the court."

Chaoli didn't reply, Tsing Yi went out directly and brought in the letter.

In fact, even if he didn't open this letter, Chaoli would know who wrote it and what was written in it.

Opening the letter paper, it was indeed Chaolu's handwriting.

"Miss, didn't you just return home? Why did the mansion send a letter back? What's the matter?" Tsing Yi asked with some doubts.

It's really strange, what can't be said at the door, and today I sent a letter specially.

Presumably, it is not a good thing.
