The daily life of the prime minister of the Qing Dynasty, thick black

Chapter 91

Gu Huaishu is not a nosy person, even if someone posted it on weekdays, she might not respond.

What kind of abilities does this Shen Qi concubine have?
My young mistress actually helped her...

Qing Dai peeled the oranges for Gu Huaixiu, "Second Young Mistress, I don't think that Aunt Lu has good intentions, it's clear that they are going to fight in the backyard..."

Gu Huaishu pinched a reed in his hand, and only floated on the water, with two maids behind him rowing the scull, and the cruise ship melted into a ripple on the lake, and went to the other side.

"I was just thinking, let him know what it means to have long hair but short knowledge... I humbly ask your grandma for advice, so I will point her out. Didn't you see her go thankfully?"

Lu's seems to be not as powerful as other concubines, and he didn't talk much during the banquet just now, but the words he said were decent.

Come to think of it, this scheming to chase after him and talk is also rare.

Competing for favor is very serious.

What Gu Huaishu was thinking in his heart was that Zhang Tingyu didn't have so many concubines, but... if one day, he had a concubine, what would happen?
not sure.

Gu Huaixiu had to prepare a beautiful way for them to die.

There are many ways to die in the world, but I don't know how many will come for Gu Huaishu to test.

She smiled slightly, her eyes were a bit cold, but she poured tea on the lake: "But all the capable people in this world who don't know how to restrain themselves, went to see the King of Hades early."

Shen Chao doesn't know how to restrain himself, yet he doesn't know when to go to the Hall of Yama?
How rare was Longjing before the Ming Dynasty?It has always been a tribute sent to the palace, how much does the emperor drink?Now I casually take it out to make tea for myself, and it turns out to be such a good tea...

Gu Huaishu didn't have the guts to drink, so she poured out the tea.

Upstairs in the middle of the lake, Shen Qiqian couldn't think of anything while sitting, only felt a pain in his head.

Well, let you say that women have long hair and short knowledge, now you know you are wrong?
late!

Let's solve this problem.

Can't help it?
There is no other way.

If you have a solution, where will you save Gu Huaixiu's face?
In fact, all the people present are smart people, and they may not be unable to think of a solution, but sometimes they are missing the finishing touch, and they are stuck in the original thinking.

Until today's banquet ended, no one could come up with an answer.

Gu Huaixiu had almost finished swimming in the lake, so he leisurely came up and clapped his hands, "It's getting late, isn't Second Master going?"

Zhang Tingyu spent all of his time watching the play today, and he was happy to see Shen Chou devastated.

When he heard Gu Huaishu calling him, he quickly put the wine glass away and smiled softly: "My wife has called, so she must be tired too. Master Shen, let's meet again in the future, Zhang will leave first."

After speaking, he got up.

Liao Fengyuan couldn't sit still any longer, he hurriedly said: "It's really not early, I'll go with Second Master too."

After speaking, Liao Fengyuan got up and left.

All of a sudden, even Wu Sidao had to leave.

Shen Chao also knew that the time was about the same, but thinking about it, this time the banquet could be regarded as being disturbed by Gu Huaishu, he said: "Let me send you a few."

Everyone went downstairs together, and when they left, they saw the skinny horse surnamed Su standing tremblingly on the boat.

Gu Huaixiu took another look, and the housekeeper next to him was a little hesitant, and came up to Shen Qi and said, "Master Shen, Miss Hongxiu... this..."

Red sleeves?

Surnamed Su, Hongxiu.

Generally, when you hear that someone's name overlaps with your own, you should pay more attention.

Just folding the word "sleeve" with such a thin horse dancing on the abacus, Gu Huaixiu felt a little strangely uncomfortable.

She knew that this was narrow-mindedness, so she passed it with a smile and didn't say anything.

Lu Shi, who was walking beside her, saw this expression and vaguely understood.

Behind Shen Yang waved his hands impatiently: "Go back to the garden first, I will send the guests away first."

After saying that, he boarded the boat, went back to the shore with all the people, and led the people to visit the garden.

"There is always a banquet in the world. I said goodbye to you today, but I don't know when we will meet again. I heard that Second Master Zhang is leaving Jiangning. If Second Master Zhang comes back next year for the exam, Shen will definitely sweep the couch to greet him."

Shen Chiang Dudu and Zhang Tingyu are close.

Zhang Tingyu hated it in his heart, just because Shen Yang didn't hide his purpose at all, and he didn't even hide his plan for Gu Huaishu in front of him at all.

Facing such a poisonous snake, Zhang Tingyu really couldn't eat or sleep well in Jiangning.

He cupped his hands: "Master Shen is very polite, if there is a chance, we will definitely get together again."

The words can be as brief as possible, and Zhang Tingyu took the people away after speaking.

Gu Huaishu also bid farewell to everyone, then pulled Zhang Tingyu's sleeve, got into the car together, and returned to the garden, ready to pack up and return to Tongcheng in two days.

Shen Qi only watched the carriage gradually go away from behind, and when he returned to the pavilion in the middle of the lake, seeing the desertedness of the hall, he actually felt a strange loneliness.

He remembered Gu Huaishu's question, "Burning the rope..."

The other aunts had almost left, and because Aunt Lu was in charge of the garden, she came back to tidy up, and when she saw Shen Chao here, she hurriedly saluted in real or fake surprise: "My concubine pays my respects to the master, why is the master?" I'm still sitting here, it's almost night, and it's windy at night..."

"Get up."

Shen Chao remembered that Aunt Lu had the ability to settle accounts and was in charge of the house.

I don't remember who sent the skinny horse up, but it has been very effective in recent years.

Aunt Lu remembered the answer she heard when she sent Second Young Mistress Zhang on a cruise...

"Master, I heard you talking about rope just now, but I'm still worried about the question asked by Mrs. Zhang Er?"

Shen Chao's eyes flashed, and he suddenly looked at Mrs. Lu.

He has so many women that few of them can make him remember their appearance clearly. Every woman seems to be similar in appearance, especially the thin horse, who looks weak and cute, and is even more coquettish on the bed. .

Shen Qi pressed the center of his brows, curled his lips and said, "What does the matter of the master have to do with you?"

Aunt Lu naturally didn't dare to refute anything, she whispered softly: "Concubine... I just thought of a way unintentionally, but I don't know if it's right or not..."

Shen Qi raised his eyebrows, "Oh? Tell me."

Aunt Lu was a little apprehensive, and just imitated Gu Huaishu's expression and tone at that time: "For the same rope, prepare three pieces. The first one will be burned from both ends, and the second rope will be burned from one end at the same time. Wait until the first rope burns." When it is finished, immediately snuff out the second rope, which is exactly two moments. Then ignite the third rope, and burn it from both ends. After burning, it is also two moments, and there are four moments. The half-burned rope is lit from both ends, and it takes another quarter. Combined, it should be five quarters."

The whole question is actually very simple. It depends on whether you can think of burning two ropes together.

Shen Qi frowned, then relaxed it slightly, and smiled: "It's a good idea..."

It's just that this method is not something Aunt Lu can think of.

Shen Chiu's heart was like a mirror, and when he looked at Lu's flickering eyes, he knew it clearly.

It's just that he didn't expose it, so he waved to Aunt Lu: "Come on, come to me, I love you."

Aunt Lu hadn't been exposed to rain or dew for several days, she was a little shy at first hearing this.

She walked over without stopping, but was picked up by Shen Qi and sat on his lap, and she was immediately hugged into his arms.

Shen Qi sniffed the scent on her body, and said: "I didn't know you were so smart, what do you want me to reward you?"

"I don't want anything, I just want you to be safe and sound..." Aunt Lu said with some emotion, her eyes filled with mist.

The actor is ruthless, but the concubine who takes him in seems to be devoted to him.

However, Shen Chao is a hard-hearted person, but he likes whoever he sees right, even if that person hates him, hates him, hates him, angers him, plots against him, mocks him, he still respects her, respects her, and likes her looking at her.

Some people are born to like to be mean, and Shen Qi also feels that he is stubborn.

He gently stroked Aunt Lu's face with his fingers, "You like me so much, I want to reward you even more..."

Shen Qi swept away all the things on the table, then put Aunt Lu on it, told her to take off all her clothes, and leaned up tremblingly, then gently rubbed her, "What's your name?" coming?"

Aunt Lu's voice was full of tears: "My concubine's name is Qing Huan, it's the name my master gave back then..."

"Qing Huan..." Shen Qi raised the corners of his lips, squinted his eyes slightly, and touched Aunt Lu's jade-like legs, "Although the taste is not as good as Hongxiu, but after all, he is smarter, much better than those other idiots... Anyway, I can get Zhang The second young lady's answer..."

The last sentence was vague, but Aunt Lu heard the name "Hongxiu".

Su Hongxiu is a newcomer to the garden, she has been very fond of Shen Yang recently.

When Aunt Lu heard Shen Chong mentioning "Second Young Mistress Zhang", she seemed to be gnashing her teeth a little bit, as if she was extremely displeased, so she moved her mind.

She whimpered under Shen Qi's movements, but she didn't dare to move too much.

Master Shen has very strict rules in the housekeeping, and no one dares to touch the places that are not allowed to be touched. Generally, they just follow Master Shen's wishes. "Master, uh...Master... When my concubine sent off Second Young Mistress Zhang today, she looked at Second Young Mistress Zhang as if..."

"What does it seem like?"

Shen Qi rushed into her body, and when he heard the words "Mistress Zhang Er", he couldn't help but use a little force.

Aunt Lu was panting badly, she could barely find her own voice: "When Mr. Housekeeper called Hongxiu's name, concubine, ah...the concubine seemed to be a little strange about Second Young Mistress Zhang, I don't know why..."

Strange?

Red sleeves?

Shen Chao paused, stretched out his hand to caress the smooth skin on Aunt Lu's neck, but stopped talking.

On this long case, he beat the naked Aunt Lu to death, and had such a great time, it was dark for an hour before he was reluctantly helped by the maids to recuperate.

Shen Chi turned around by himself, walked around the Quping screen in the middle, and saw the people behind leaving the table full of remnants when the tea was cold.

Several bowls of tea are placed on a large round table with carved lacquer, all made of white porcelain, which have been used by women...

Shen Qi still remembered that Gu Huaishu got up from this seat at that time, listening to the voice, it should be in this position...

On the table, a tea bowl filled with half a cup of residual tea stood silently. The inner side was stained with a little carmine, which was the color of a woman's lips, gorgeous and beautiful.

Shen Chao stretched out his hand, picked up the tea bowl, and smelled the sweet scent mixed in the tea fragrance...

Come to think of it, the second young lady's taste is the same, right?
Red, or sleeves?
Gently rubbing his fingers on the inner wall, a faint touch of rouge reached Shen Chao's fingertips. He squinted slightly, but murmured: "Sleeve...sleeve..."

Gu Huaixiu.

Such is the boudoir name.

Together with Zhang Tingyu, she returned to Jiangning's courtyard and planned to return to Tongcheng in a few days.

Gu Huaishu asked him: "Second Master, let's go, what about the one in the courtyard?"

Is it possible that we want to take them back to Tongcheng together?

But if you don't take him back, this person will stay in Jiangning, which may be a disaster.

Shen Chao came out of the siege at the beginning, how could he not understand the principle of cutting grass and root?So don't expect Shen Chao to think that Luo Xuanwen will die.

As soon as they left, Shen Qi might come to find fault.

At that time, I'm afraid I can't hide it.

How could Zhang Tingyu not understand this truth?
He squeezed his fan, but said: "The most dangerous place is the safest place. If you go back to Tongcheng, what can you expect him to do?"

Here, maybe there is still something to be done, it is not the same to be able to bring the dead back to life, and turn defeat into victory.

It's just starting from scratch, after all, it's too difficult.

Zhang Tingyu looked at Gu Huaixiu, and Gu Huaixiu said, "Have you made up your mind?"

Zhang Tingyu nodded.

Gu Huaixiu frowned: "You are generous..."

It's just that who doesn't have a place to spend money?
Gu Huaishu also knows the principles of investment. Luo Xuanwen still has some skills, but he has to be careful not to be bitten again.

However, she also always felt that Zhang Tingyu's methods were much more ruthless than Shen Yang's. If Luo Xuanwen dared to become a family slave of the three surnames, if something like Shen Yang's happened again, it would be impossible to save him.

"We still have more than 8000 taels of silver left in our hands." Naturally, Gu Huaishu's dowry is not counted.

She said: "? Give him 3000 taels more, and play as you like. If you lose money, it's ours. If you make money, it's ours."

After talking, the two entered the house.

Zhang Tingyu pulled her to sit down and discussed the future together.

Giving money to Luo Xuanwen this year, on the surface Luo Xuanwen has nothing to do with them, the money he earned behind the scenes is all Zhang Tingyu's, but I don't know how capable he is.

Gu Huaishu was already prepared for Luo Xuanwen to be plotted to death by Shen Qi, so he didn't care too much.

It's better to arrange things for next year.

Next year Zhang Tingyu will come to Jiangning to take part in the provincial examination. Although the chief examiner of the provincial examination is Zhao Zifang who has a grudge against Zhang Ying, Zhang Tingyu may not fail to pass.depends on luck...

Keep everything here, and even buy more.

After discussing until midnight, Gu Huaishu was too sleepy, so he and Zhang Tingyu took a rest together.

After getting up the next day, he went to Jiangning's streets and alleys again, bought some local clothes, Zhang Tingyu even went to Wuyi Lane, and met many local literati in Jiangnan.

After tossing around like this for a few days, he sent someone back to Tongcheng to deliver the letter in advance, and even visited Liao Fengyuan before leaving.

It's just that neither Gu Huaixiu nor Zhang Tingyu thought that Wu Sidao was a weird person. After helping Liao Fengyuan with his affairs, he went to work as a teacher in a private school, and he also called him "Mr. Wu".

Wu Sidao said that he was too tired to do the calculations, and it was meaningless to help the businessman to do the calculations, so he simply taught the children to read, which had some natural interest.

Needless to say, Wu Sidao is also an ambitious person.

Zhang Tingyu didn't care much about him, after seeing Wu Sidao, he set off on his way home the next day.

When their boat left Jiangning, Shen Chong's garden was also packed, ready to go to Yangzhou to meet some people.

This time, the people who wanted to punish him were all from the government. Although Shen Chao had solved some future troubles, after all, it was not a long-term solution to only rely on the Governor of Water Transport, and it would be safer to find a powerful backer to rely on.

As for how to find this backer, it's hard to say.

All the way up the river, Gu Huaishu taught Li Wei how to play chess when he became interested, but Li Wei couldn't do it anyway.

Zhang Tingyu also wanted someone to ask Ade to teach Li Wei how to write, but Li Wei is a ignorant kid who doesn't know a single character and is always lazy.

Gu Huaishu simply didn't bother to talk to him, and within a few days he had already arrived at the border of Anhui, and returned to Tongcheng via Tongling.

As soon as the carriage entered the street where Zhang's mansion was located, Gu Huaishu realized something was wrong.

I don't know when, the door of the Ye Mansion next door to their Zhang Mansion was covered with plain white cloth...

Zhang Tingyu got out of the car and saw it first, and helped Gu Huaixiu down, Gu Huaixiu was also stunned when he saw it.

This is……

dead?
"Ade, inquire about it."

Zhang Tingyu frowned, and gave an order, feeling a bit unlucky, and was about to enter the mansion with Gu Huaixiu on his hands, when a few people in plain clothes came out of the door over there.

"Thank you for your concern, my sister's spirit in the sky is sure..."

The voice stopped abruptly, and Ye Chaocheng, the eldest son of the Ye family, saw Zhang Tingyu, and his eyes turned red immediately: "Wow! You dare to come back! Give my little sister back my life!"

He rushed forward and wanted to fight Zhang Tingyu desperately, looking at his ferocious face, he really looked like a madman.

Gu Huaishu frowned, and was about to ask Ade to stop him.But Zhang Tingyu stretched out his leg, hit Zhongye Chao into his knee with one foot, kicked the person to the ground, and fell down firmly!

Zhang Tingyu sneered: "For no reason to ask Zhang to take his life? Mr. Ye is probably crazy!"
