The most ferocious sword of the Imperial City Division

Chapter 93
"Ahem," Gu Shinwei thought and couldn't help but cough twice.

Li Mingfang, who was still sitting before, immediately stood up. She hurriedly untied the cloak and put it on Gu Shiwei without any explanation.

The cloak still carried body heat, making people feel warm all of a sudden. "It's all my fault. It's windy here at the lake. You should be careful to catch a cold. My tears have dried now. Let's go ahead and have a cup of hot fruit tea." "

Gu Shinwei couldn't resist, and looked at Li Mingfang's hand on her arm, feeling a little dazed for a moment.

If Li Mingfang hadn't put her hair in a woman's bun now, she would have thought that the past three years were just a dream.

She thought about it, untied the cloak, and put it back on Li Mingfang, "The days are long, let's talk about it later. Since you are here to send congratulations on behalf of Taishi Jiang's house today, it would be bad if you haven't seen anyone for a long time."

"Besides, I have a special status now. I'm afraid Taishi Jiang won't be happy to see you interacting closely with people from the Imperial City Division."

Li Mingfang hesitated for a moment, thinking about Mrs. Liu's previous words, and nodded.

"I will go to Sangzi Lane to look for you tomorrow. My needlework has improved a lot. I will sew you a nice dress by then."

Li Mingfang said, straightening his robe and wiping the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief, "Your eldest cousin's youngest son, Gu Xudong, is very talented. He can write splendid articles at the age of nine. Now he is with the second prince. Studying under my father-in-law."

"Not long after, the palace will announce the candidate for the second prince's escort. There is a high probability that Brother Dong will be the winner. I heard that Concubine Su and the second prince like him very much."

"Princess Fushun brought her here in person. People say she is not close to the Gu family, but I don't think that's true."

"The way the Gu family treated you back then, even if you die ten thousand times, it's not an exaggeration. But you have to be careful with Fushun... She is a princess after all, and her brother..."

Li Mingfang did not continue, but Gu Shiwei understood clearly.

Although the official family has not yet established a new crown prince, he only has one son, Zhao Cheng, and the entire Yong Dynasty will belong to Princess Fushun and her brother.

If she pushes the Gu family hard, she will face Princess Fushun sooner or later.

Li Mingfang racked her brains and thought again. She was so anxious that she could tell Gu Shiwei all the news related to the Gu family that she could think of. But the more anxious she was, the less she could remember what she should say. What.

"If you want to hear some gossip, go to Mrs. Taipinghou. She has a round face, round eyes, and very thin lips. You can tell at a glance. She is a talkative, and she also likes to be a matchmaker and stretch women... … Talking about everything from all over the world.”

Li Mingfang explained again and again until he saw Madam Liu from the Jiang Mansion looking for her at the other end of the corridor of the Lake Pavilion. Then he gave up, picked up the hem of his skirt, and left with his head turned three times.

Gu Shinwei looked at her back and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

When he was eight years old, his mother died and his father went to the palace and rarely came back.

She spent the five long years of her life practicing swordplay in front of the pear tree in Chengmingyuan.

Shili didn't know much about swordsmanship and was far less eloquent than Chunxing, so she sat on the threshold and sewed clothes with her.

There were no guests in Chengming Courtyard, only occasionally Uncle Lou would come and bring her some snacks bought from outside.

Li Mingfang was Gu Shiwei's first guest in the small courtyard. She remembered sitting in front of the porch that day, listening to Li Mingfang talk about the shortcomings of the host's parents and the Li family, and how she was raped by a thief on the street. Steal money and chase after it.

As a result, he chased the wrong person halfway and kicked Jiang Silang on the butt.Jiang Silang swept the floor gracefully and turned over like a turtle. The anger had already rushed to his eyelashes and was extinguished when he saw her.

When she came here before, she used to go through the main entrance, but later she felt that the rules of the Gu family were complicated. Whenever she walked to the wall of Chengmingyuan, she would bark at the yellow dog. After Gu Shiwei listened, he would fly out and kill her. Sneak in...

"Take care of your loved ones! Here, here!"

A strange scream woke Gu Shiwei from her memories. She followed the sound and looked over, only to see Wu Jiang's eyes swollen like peaches, sneaking up beside a big locust tree on the shore. Waved at her.

He looked like a little thief who came to steal things.

Gu Shinwei twitched his lips speechlessly and walked towards Wu Jiang, "Why are you acting like a thief in your uncle's house? Today your sister is getting married. What are you doing here if your brother-in-law doesn't go out to drink? "

Wu Jiang shook his head and pointed to his eyes, "I won't go. I saw Wang Yu being so proud that I was afraid that I couldn't help but beat him up. This flower from my fifth sister is like a flower stuck in cow dung. ”

He said and waved his hand, "Forget it, don't mention it. Wherever you go, I will follow you and become a wandering spirit."

Gu Shiwei was too lazy to pay attention to her. She thought about Li Mingfang's words and walked towards a large group of guests.

Li Mingfang didn't lie. Mrs. Taipinghou was indeed the most conspicuous person among the guests at the moment. She was about forty years old, and there were a large group of ladies in luxurious clothes sitting around her. They were all looking at her happily. .

On the surface, everyone looked calm, but in fact, the female relatives ten meters above her all pricked up their ears, waiting to hear what she had to say.

"I know many of the people you are looking for. When I was young, I often ate and drank with Han Shiyan at various banquets. I know most of those ladies."

Gu Shiwei thought for a while and asked, "Who is Mrs. Cao who renewed her marriage in the Earl's Mansion?"

Wu Jiang rubbed his eyes and said, "Did you see that? That's the square head to the right of the round head. The one with the round head is Mrs. Cheng Pinghou. When we were young, we all said that if the hoop is not round, just put it on her head. Use a hoop to ensure a round walk..."

"It would be easier to recognize Mrs. Cao. If Mrs. Tingpinghou and Mrs. Cao fall together and are stacked up and down like this, wouldn't it mean that the sky is round and the earth is round?"

Gu Shiwei twitched her lips as she listened, and she looked around hurriedly.

Sure enough, even though Wu Jiang lowered his voice, there were still female guests around who couldn't help but peek over.

Yaoshou!So what kind of clothes did she change on purpose?With Wu Jiang here, even the ants passing by would have to look over.

She thought, before attracting more people's attention, she immediately changed her position and found a place closer to the "round sky and place".

As expected, Mrs. Taipinghou lived up to her expectations and spoke immediately, "I heard that something big happened to the Gu family yesterday, and a life-and-death lawsuit was involved. If I remember correctly, is Mrs. Cao married to the Gu family in her house?"

As soon as she said these words, her ears pricked up more than there were bamboo shoots in the spring bamboo forest.

Gu Shiwei couldn't help but look over.
