Chapter 506

"We also feel puzzled. The Gu family can't come forward to inquire, so we came here to trouble you to make more inquiries." Gu Guangning explained with a wry smile.

"Sure, I'll ask someone." Huo Qiqi agreed directly.

Huo Yichen also nodded and continued, "I'll also find someone to inquire about it."

"Cousin Qiqi, do you have any herbal medicine here, the kind that can make people's face turn red?" Gu Jinpei's eyes suddenly lit up, and she felt that she had found a good solution to the problem.

"Sister, don't mess around." Gu Guangning scolded her, "This is not the land of Shu, you are allowed to mess around."

When Gu Jinpei heard this, his eyes turned red again.

"Sister, don't worry. We'd better wait for Qiqi to find out the situation first, and then we'll figure it out." Gu Guangxi couldn't bear it, and comforted her softly.

Gu Jinpei is not the kind of girl who messes around, and she also knows that if her idea is leaked, not only the Gu family will be charged with deceiving the emperor, but even the Duke Protector's House will be implicated.

Gu Guangning's scolding woke her up.With red eyes, she sighed and said to Huo Qiqi, "Qiqi, don't take my words to heart, I'm just talking nonsense. It's not a bad thing to choose a concubine. I don't know how many girls in the capital are staring at me. Besides, even if I go, I may not be able to be selected."

The more she spoke, the lower her voice was. Maybe she felt that what she said could not be fooled by herself.

Several people in the room sighed together.

"Don't worry, Second Cousin is right, let's find out first before talking." Huo Qiqi comforted her.

The brothers and sisters of the Gu family had something on their minds, so they only stayed in the Duke Hu's mansion for a while, and then went back.

Gu Jinpei has been included in the list, and he must learn the rules these few days.

Huo Qiqi didn't want to bother the old man with these trivial matters, so she sent Jian Yu and Jing Mu directly to the Ministry of Industry with her post.

The juniors of the Huo family didn't intend to enter the officialdom, so they seldom deal with officials.

Huo Yichen didn't have much access to things like looking for news.

But Huo Qiqi was different. She stayed in the Ministry of Industry for a while, and was followed by Li Yuanbai to Nanping, so many officials in the Ministry of Industry were familiar with her.

People who hang out in the officialdom are more or less related to each other.

After Jian Yu and Jing Mu walked away from the Ministry of Industry, they soon brought back some gossip to Huo Qiqi.

"Uncle is going to be promoted again?" Huo Yichen was taken aback.

Huo Qiqi was also speechless, she never expected that Gu Jinpei was selected because of this.In other words, Gu Gu Ye's official career has gone too smoothly. He only entered Beijing a few years ago. No, to be precise, he didn't really take office until after the year. He was just a low-rank official.Unexpectedly, after only a few months, he was promoted to two levels in a row.

It stands to reason that the promotion of officials will only come out after the winter assessment, and no matter what level of officials in the capital, it is not easy to get promoted.

How did Gu Zhenye get promoted so quickly when he didn't have full achievements?
I can't figure it out, and I can't figure it out.Of course, Huo Qiqi would not be so stupid as to ask Gu Guye, that would be tantamount to doubting Gu Guye's professional ability.

Anyway, the matter of the Gu family is quite sinister, my father was promoted, and my daughter was forced into the palace to participate in the draft.One joy and one sorrow, it is true that there are accidents everywhere in life.

Huo Qiqi directly ordered Jian Yu to go to Gu's house and tell the result to there.

As for how Gu Jinpei chooses in the end, she can't make the decision for Gu Jinpei either.

Of course, if Gu Jinpei wanted herbal medicine, she had no shortage of it, and it was no exaggeration to say that she had it here for whatever Gu Jinpei wanted.

At this time, she never thought that the selection of concubines by the emperors would affect her.

The next day, early in the morning, the Duke Huguo's mansion became lively.

The brothers of the Huo family were also called to the front yard by the old man. When Huo Qiqi saw the Chen family sitting in rows in the main hall, his eyelids couldn't help jumping up.

The Chen family is going to make trouble, and it seems that they will get her in the car.

At this moment, Huo Qiqi couldn't help but want to retreat, there was no other reason, it was because the Chen family's eyes were too hot, she couldn't bear it.

"Seventh Young Master, come, sit here." Brothers Chen Jingfu and Chen Jinghui and Huo Qiqi were considered acquaintances.

As soon as they saw Huo Qiqi, they immediately rushed forward, intending to push Huo Qiqi to sit beside them.

The Huo family brothers are all calf protectors. Seeing this, Huo Yining and Huo Yichen immediately rushed over to protect Huo Qiqi behind them.

"Are you making a mistake? This is the Duke Protector's Mansion." Huo Yining looked at them with a half-smile.

"Qiqi sit beside me." Huo Yichen was more direct.

Brother Chen...

Oops, I was so anxious that I forgot that the brothers of the Huo family were all protectors.

"Hehe, isn't it a few days since I haven't seen the seventh son, and I'm excited? Yes, I can sit anywhere." Chen Jingfu replied with a smile.

What a thick skin!It's too late now to find an excuse to explain.

"Grandfather, what is this?" Huo Qiqi asked the old man with a smile.

"The Chen family is here to propose marriage for you." The Huguo Gong's words are not surprising but can scare people to death, "The little girl of the Chen family has taken a fancy to you, what do you think? They want a quick talk."

"Qi Qi, although our Pearl is not as good-looking as you, but the girl has high martial arts skills and protects her weaknesses. If you follow her, you will definitely not suffer in the future." Mr. Chen praised his granddaughter with a shy face.

"Father." Chen Jinghui was in a hurry, what the old man said seemed to be reversed.They are women, how can a man like a girl who is too rude, and when the woman is not as beautiful as the man, how can he scare the man again?
"No, no, I mean, Pearl has you in her heart, and she will never let you be wronged in the future." Unfortunately, Old General Chen is only thinking about water at the moment, the more he speaks, the more anxious he is, the more mistakes he makes.

Huo Yixing laughed out loud, and everyone's eyes immediately fell on him.

"I'm sorry, I thought of something in the restaurant. Go ahead." Huo Yixing felt cold all over, and immediately sat up straight, and the smile on his face disappeared.

If it wasn't the person involved, Huo Qiqi actually wanted to laugh too.However, she couldn't laugh at this moment.

On the opposite side, Chen Zhenzhu, who would not let her be wronged, was staring at her covetously.She was worried that if she laughed, the other party would whip her directly.

"Grandfather." Seeing Huo Qiqi's forbearance, Chen Zhenzhu stood up abruptly, and rushed to Huo Qiqi in two or three steps.

"What are you doing?" Huo Yichen was startled by her, and quickly jumped up.

"What can I do? With so many people around, what else can I do?" As one of the parties involved, Chen Zhenzhu was not in a good mood at the moment.

No matter how courageous she is, she is still a girl.

She is a girl, but she wants to bring her family to the man's house to propose marriage. Her mood can be described as very complicated.The point is, she also saw that Huo Qiqi didn't see her at all, so she couldn't be in a hurry.
