Wanfu, the Reborn Empress

Chapter 732 Begins
Gu Yanxi smiled at Tang Xin, which was considered a response to her.

Then the three of them didn't talk about anything else anymore, and ran towards the back garden at a faster pace while talking and laughing.

However, just as Gu Yanxi and the others were walking towards the back garden of Jingyanghou Mansion, a figure came out from a corner under the corridor.

I saw that figure was dressed in a brocade robe with lavender patterns, a jade belt around his waist, and a jade crown on his head. One could see that he was born in a wealthy family, the son of a prince and general; more importantly, this person's appearance was quite outstanding, with red lips, white teeth, and handsome eyes. Especially those pair of peach blossom eyes that seem to have watery luster, at first glance, it looks like a flirtatious person who is easy to attract peach blossoms.

And the person who appeared here at this time was none other than Yao Jiting who was forcefully dragged by his mother Zhu to the Hou Mansion to attend the birthday banquet.

Yao Jiting put his hands behind his back, accompanied by the servant Chang, looked at the three beautiful figures walking away from his eyes, with an indifferent expression, and said coldly: "My mother sent someone to call me here, just to see the Gu family. The third girl, right?!"

The servant who followed was called Lei Shou, and he was Yao Jiting's most useful servant, comparable to the existence of the first confidant; right now, Lei Shou could see that Yao Jiting was unhappy, so he didn't dare to say goodbye at this time. When talking, I can only tell my master what my wife means, and said: "What my wife means is that no matter from the perspective of birth or family background, the three girls in the Gu family are the most suitable for you, your son. The Grand Master has already resigned from office, but the old Grand Master still has prestige in the court, and more importantly, the head of the Gu Mansion, Mr. Gu, is working in the Ministry of Officials. I heard that Mr. Gu is the biggest candidate to join the cabinet in the future Master Gu's only son is the leader of the Jinwu Guard, a celebrity in front of the imperial court; Miss Gu San is pampered in the back house, but her father and brother are all important figures. Such people are the most important people for us right now. Someone for you."

Having said this, Lei Shou glanced at Yao Jiting cautiously, and sure enough, he saw that although the prince said nothing, his tightly pursed lips had revealed his inner anger; Lei Shou had been by Yao Jiting's side since he was a child , I know very well what kind of temperament the master I take care of is.He seems to be as elegant as a gentleman, but he is also an extremely vicious person, and he is very good at forbearance.

Facing such a master, you need to be more cautious no matter what you say or do, especially when you see that he is not happy, you must pay attention everywhere.

Lei Shou is also being held here right now, with his wife on one side and his son on the other, a person of his status would dare not offend either side; therefore, in order to complete the task assigned by his wife, he must take a little risk and try to keep his wife Tell the prince what you want to convey, and also appease the prince's dissatisfaction.

Lei Shou took a deep breath, softened his tone, and comforted Yao Jiting in a low voice: "My lord, I know that you already have a girl you like in your heart. At this time, I will force you and the third girl It's really wronged you to make a pair; but you can also see that the situation of our Hou Mansion is not very good at the moment. The old Hou Ye is immersed in the gentleness and doesn't care about the life and death of the Hou Mansion. To maintain the Hou's Mansion, but she is a woman after all, unable to turn the tide. So at this time, the only person who can save the Hou's Mansion is you. Don't worry, my son, the slaves have already secretly inquired , the third girl of the Gu family is quite a kind person, and she has been pampered in the palms of her parents all these years. She must be very naive in her disposition and temperament. Isn't it the best way to deal with such a woman? From my slave's point of view, we might as well agree to Madam's proposal and marry the third girl from the Gu Mansion. When she solves the urgent need of our Marquis Mansion, her role will come to an end. At that time, we don't have to deal with her anymore. She has some taboos, so it is good to give her status and status and tell her to stay in the Hou's mansion in peace. At that time, we will welcome Miss Sun into the mansion to stay with you forever; Madam didn't you say, as long as you marry Gu Miss San, she will promise you whatever you say and what you want in the future."

Hearing Lei Shou's persuasion, Yao Jiting finally looked better, but for some reason, he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy in his heart; when he didn't see Gu Yanxi, he didn't think much of it, but just now, when he caught a glimpse, he However, he felt a little guilty, and was quite repulsed by this woman he had never met before.

This kind of feeling is a bit inexplicable. Although Yao Jiting is a little concerned, it is not enough for him to be troubled by this feeling at this time. He only heard him say: "As long as I promise my mother to marry Gu Yanxi, I will be able to obey myself in the future." Do you want to be with the woman you love forever? Lei Shou, do you think this wish can come true? Then Gu Yanxi is a daughter of the Gu family. In the future, what should she do if she doesn't agree with Shan'er coming into the mansion? Or the Gu family members don't want me to accept Shan'er, what should I do?"

Lei Shou said: "Since ancient times, it has been the most normal thing for a man to have three wives and four concubines. How can his Gu family control our Hou's mansion in this matter? If they really did this, it would be theirs." It's unreasonable, even if the whole city knows about this matter, they will be reprimanded by the Gu family. Don't worry, my son, the Gu family also wants face. They can't make a big fuss with you on this kind of matter If something happens in the future, in fact, we are not afraid. Don't forget, even if the third girl in the Gu family is favored again in the Gu family, it is before she is married. This third girl has become a member of our Marquis Mansion. Whether her life in the mansion is good or bad is up to us to decide. If the third girl is a smart person, she will naturally know what to do and what not to do, but if She is stupid and ignorant, and wants to rely on her status to ask you for excessive things, we can also train her well, so that she knows where she is now and who she should listen to, so that she can live a good life."

Hearing what Lei Shou said, Yao Jiting finally showed a satisfied smile on his face at this moment, he stretched out his hand and patted Lei Shou on the shoulder, appreciating without hesitation: "You really deserve to be with this prince. People who have been around me for many years are so good at planning for me; Lei Shou, it seems that when things are done in the future, I will thank you very much."

Seeing that Yao Jiting finally showed a smile, Lei Shou also let out a long breath in his heart, with a smile on his face, he said: "It's my blessing to be able to share my son's worries, and my slave dare not ask for my son's gratitude."

Yao Jiting waved his hand and said: "You don't have to say these high-sounding words to this prince, because this prince is very clear about your sincerity to this prince. Don't worry, Lei Shou, this prince will definitely let you get what you deserve."

Saying that, Yao Jiting looked towards the direction where Gu Yanxi was nowhere to be seen, his long and narrow peach eyes narrowed dangerously, even a cool smile appeared on his lips, if anyone who is familiar with Yao Jiting sees him showing his face at this time, With this appearance, one can definitely tell at a glance that at this time he is planning a trick that cannot be understood by outsiders, and is scheming something.

However, what Yao Jiting didn't know was that the conversation he had just seen with Lei Shouzhi had been clearly heard by a third person, and that person had been hiding in the dark all this time, and before leaving, he stared deeply at Yao Jiting again. , it quickly disappeared.

The garden in Jingyanghou's Mansion is really pleasant and makes people linger; when Gu Yanxi and the others came to the plum garden together, seeing the winter plums that were each budding, even the ones who hadn't thought about it because they met Mrs. Zhu The depressed mood also improved a lot at this time.

Gu Yanxi stood under a plum blossom tree wearing a silver fox cloak, raised his head and gently smelled the faint fragrance floating in the air, his smile melted in his eyes involuntarily: "I have always heard before that Jingyang The plum garden in the Hou's Mansion is the most scenic spot in the capital, but although I have traveled around the Hou's Mansion many times, I have never been lucky enough to visit this garden. I visited it for the first time today, and after seeing it with my own eyes, the rumors are really worth believing. Today, the winter plum blossoms are not fully in full bloom, and if the petals of the winter plums are in full bloom when the winter snow comes, one can imagine that it must be a piece of Aoxue red plum, glamorous and incomparable."

Listening to Gu Yanxi's repeated praises for this garden, Lu Yingying took a look at the slightly noisy place not far away, and probably knew what the back garden was like at this time. She only heard her say to Gu Yanxi and Tang Xin: "I'm a rude person who doesn't understand humor and elegance. To me, viewing flowers and scenery is like chewing peonies. I can't taste the taste at all. If you want to arouse my interest, unless it's swords and soldiers, or Food and wine, this kind of delicate flowers, Jiaojiao and Xin'er, you two should slowly taste and like them. However, although the scenery does not attract me right now, the situation over there does interest me, and now I finally know why The old lady asked us to come out here to enjoy the flowers."

Gu Yanxi followed Lu Yingying's eyes for a look, and she roughly understood what she wanted to say, and said: "The old lady is a transparent person, of course she knows that her birthday will be used by others, and she The old man is generous and takes good care of us juniors, so even if she knows that our parents have other thoughts, as long as it is harmless and nothing happens in the Hou Mansion, she will choose to turn a blind eye."

Lu Yingying stomped her feet and said: "I didn't mean that, what I want to say is that the girls and boys who came to the birthday banquet are really bold and unrestrained, and they have secretly paired up for a tryst so soon; Take a quick look at the situation over there, the looks of each and every one of them are really like peach blossoms, and the scenery of this plum garden is even more charming."
