Chapter 110

Qi Xuan sat on the wall and saw the farce that happened in the backyard of Gu's family. Gu Qingzhu sent Chen back to Songhe Garden. Chen was a little tired, so Gu Qingzhu stopped disturbing and went to Qionghua Garden.

Qi Xuan passed through the corridor and came to Gu Qingzhu. Gu Qingzhu felt nothing strange about the sudden appearance of this person. He was not even happy to look at him, and then continued to walk forward quickly. Hongqu was shocked and thought to himself how Prince Qi was so elusive.

Hongqu subconsciously slowed down and gradually moved away from the two people walking side by side.

"The matter is solved?" Qi Xuan looked at Gu Qingzhu's face.

Gu Qingzhu had a expressionless face and turned a corner from the corridor: "Didn't you see it?" He knew that Qi Xuan could not have left after dinner.

Qi Xuan touched her nose and smiled: "Hehe. I originally wanted to come, but she screamed too loudly. There is no place to hear in the front yard and the back yard. Why didn't your father mess with her today? It's known to everyone, but it doesn't look like your father's style."

Gu Zhiyuan is very proud of his face and is timid and afraid of things. How could Qi Xuan not know?

"The people from the He family are waiting to see the results. Do he dare to delay?" Gu Qingzhu snorted coldly.

Qi Xuan immediately understood: "It turned out that the He family intervened. You are so calm about your framing of the problem."

When Gu Qingzhu heard this, he stopped and looked at Qi Xuan's eyes: "I am such a person. In order to achieve my goal, I can lie dormant for a long time. You still have time to regret it now. This incident is an opportunity. You just need to go back and say that you didn't expect the Gu family to be in chaos and do such a ridiculous thing. In the past, you were blind, but now you wake up and just give up the marriage, which has no effect on anyone."

Qi Xuan sneered in anger: "Why haven't you given up yet? You're a mess in Gu's family, it's not the first day I know. If you don't deal with her, I will deal with her. Don't always think about breaking the engagement. It's impossible. Why bother thinking about it? Just marry me quietly."

Gu Qingzhu didn't answer, turned around and left, Qi Xuan followed, chatting:

"Qingzhu, let's start over, and you can't always be immersed in the past. I know you still have feelings for me, but I just don't want to admit it. I used to be too bad, and I didn't ask you to forgive me. I just wanted you to give me a chance to take good care of you for the rest of my life, shelter you from the wind and rain, and not let others bully you. After you said that to me last time, I went back and got sick. At that time, I did doubt whether I shouldn't be bothering you again, and whether I should let you go as you said, but when I heard about your engagement with Song Xincheng, I went crazy. I can't give you to other men. No one can take care of you except me."

Gu Qingzhu walked very quickly, and Qi Xuan always followed her, saying these meaningless words in a voice that only two people could hear. Gu Qingzhu listened to it and wanted to cover her ears. She didn't want to hear these words at all.

*******

In the backyard of the He family, after He Rongzhang sent someone who was staring at Gu Zhiyuan back, he informed He Rongzhang about what happened to the Gu family:

"Mr. Gu Lao was beaten up the woman after he went back, and then he went out of the mansion. Many guests knew that this was too big and were asking what was going on. Gu Lao was not favoritism at all."

After hearing this, He Rongzhang took a deep breath and his eyes fell on the old people kneeling on the ground in the yard, and he was angry: "Have you heard it all? You old people who are scammers, I miss you for many years in the mansion. I have never treated you badly, but what about you? He actually wanted to blackmail me, together with outsiders, to keep a dog, and know how to guard the house and protect the yard. Are you not even as good as a dog?"

After Gu Zhiyuan captured Qin's family back to the mansion, He Rongzhang began to check the backyard and pulled out many bad sheep. He was shocked when he checked. The woman Qin's hand was indeed long enough to almost handle people in every link. This was what he discovered early. If he discovered it late, when the woman Qin's family consolidated her power, wouldn't she even be plotted against by her?

"Who else has anyone and nothing has been explained, I'll think about it clearly. If I explain it today, I can save you your life. If it's too late... Humph."

He Rongzhang snorted coldly and looked around everyone, which scared everyone three times again. Everyone knew that this time the woman of Qin had really taken it on a pirate ship. On weekdays, the Marquis didn't care about the backyard. They did some small moves behind their backs, but it was nothing, but today the boat capsized in the gutter and couldn't explain it.

The people who were taking stock of the dowry looked at each other a few times, knelt forward, and explained to He Rongzhang:

"Mr. Marquis, we don't dare to say something. The dowry sent by the Gu family today does not match the number in the dowry booklet. The slaves originally planned to report back after the guests left. Now that the Marquis has asked, we will talk."

Duan was responsible for this matter. He put down the teacup and asked coldly: "The number is wrong? How much is the difference?"

The first time I replied, the one named Lao Tong, who was in charge of the warehouse and gave a wink at the person next to me. The man went down. After a while, he lifted up a not-so-large alley, as big as a food box. Lao Tong walked over, opened the box, and said:

"As stated in the dowry booklet, the dowry silver should be 38,000 taels. If it were a silver note, fifty taels of denomination, and there was a box of them, that's it."

The old boy took out a stack of silver notes from the box and handed them to the maid next to Duan. The maid presented it to Duan. Duan looked at it at the first time and didn't think anything was wrong, so he asked, "What's wrong? Is the amount wrong?"

The old boy nodded: "Madam, please look down."

Duan was stunned and looked through a few more pictures. When the fifth one was in the past, his face changed. The first five pieces of this stack of silver notes were indeed fifty taels per denomination. At the beginning of the sixth one, they were actually some white paper.

Duan was so angry that his eyes were filled with stars. He handed the silver notes to He Rongzhang, who was beside him. He Rongzhang took the stack and then threw them heavily on the ground: "It's too much to deceive people! Go and call Gu Yuyao over to me! Let her see what their Gu family did!"

Duan was concerned; "Mr. Marquis thought twice. Now many female relatives are there in the wedding room. Only some people in the backyard know about this matter. It has not been transmitted to the front yard. If it is a big deal, if we ask about it, we can't explain it. This is such a shame."

The He family is marrying a wife today, which is different from the Gu family marrying a daughter. All the wealthy families in the capital who are related to Chongjing Hou Mansion have come. If such a scandal is spread, the reputation of Chongjing Hou Mansion will be completely destroyed in the future. He Rongzhang has to re-evaluate the importance.

I couldn't swallow this breath, so I looked at He Shaojing next to me:

"You have been sitting in a daze since you just now. If you encounter such a thing at home, you have no choice. If you have no choice, go to the front yard to greet the guests. What's the point of sitting here without moving?"

Since He Shaojing saw the marriage letter, he has been in a daze and has sorted out the matter from beginning to end. Logically speaking, Qin Shi dared not change the marriage letter so blatantly, unless what she said was true, she did not change anything except the name of the wedding letter. If she did not change other contents, why would she completely believe that the content was true? If the marriage letter was a engagement between Gu Qingzhu and his second brother, would Gu Qingzhu know or not know about it in advance? All the problems bothered him and made it difficult for him to react for a while.

This is why He Rongzhang's comment on him at this moment, and he sat motionless.

He Shaojing came back to his senses and looked at He Rongzhang who was angry and anxious, stood up from the chair, bowed to He Rongzhang, and said softly:

"My son knows his mistake, so he goes to the front yard here."

After saying that, He Shaojing turned around and left. He Rongzhang originally wanted to ask him if there was any solution. Even if he didn't, it would be good to say a few words of comfort, but this son seemed stupid today. He couldn't even come up with any idea, and he still looked like this.

After thinking about it, I thought about it and it was indeed not the time to be serious. After all, my daughter-in-law had already married and had worshipped the house. Qin's mistakes, Gu Zhiyuan immediately responded and gave up the person without delay. It can be seen that Gu Zhiyuan really wanted to calm down. Since He Rongzhang wanted to sell Gu Zhiyuan's favor, he had to take more responsibility for the dowry. It was only because the He family met the wrong person and met the devastation star like Qin.

He waved his sleeves impatiently: "Forget it, press this for now, don't make any noise. Let's talk about it after all the relatives and friends leave the house in the past few days."

Everything has to take into account the overall situation. The Gu family has lost all its face, so the He family can't do anything more. Otherwise, the two families will have to be tied up and be pointed at by others. He Rongzhang didn't want that, so he could only choose to swallow this.

He was not very happy all day long. Even when he arrived at the guests, He Rongzhang left with a glass of water and wine. The guests didn't know what was going on in the backyard, but they just felt unhappy when respecting the Marquis to marry his daughter-in-law today.

At night, most of the guests dispersed, and only some relatives from the distant family stayed in the mansion overnight, waiting for the bride to get up and recognize people tomorrow.

He Rongzhang was exhausted and returned to the room and planned to have a good rest for a night. Too many things happened today, and he felt that he had never been bullied like this in his life.

Duan was waiting for him to wash up. The two of them were about to rest when they heard a few shouts from outside:

"Dad, dad, open the door."

Duan was stunned: "Oh, why is it like the sound of a flat boat? If he doesn't be in the bridal chamber, why are he here to do it?"

He Rongzhang put on his clothes and walked to the outer hall. The maid who served opened the door. He Pingzhou rushed in a little drunk. He took off half of his wedding robe and his cheeks were red. He did drink a lot of wine today, and now he is shaking when he walks.

"What do you think?" He Rongzhang was in a bad mood and became even more angry when he saw his son like this.
