Chapter 211 Adding Obstacles
An Xu bowed in response, took two steps back, turned around and left quickly.
Hua Ruiming and Liu returned to the dining room together.
Liu frowned and asked, "Why does the emperor want that land deed? Did you hear some rumors?"
Hua Ruiming shook his head, "I don't know."
Mrs. Liu looked at her son and asked, "Did your father tell you anything before he was alive?"
Hua Ruiming shook his head, "My father only discussed it with Chen Song when he was alive. How could I know anything? I also learned many things about Long Yingwei from Chen Liang and the others."
Liu Shi sighed, "Your father didn't expect that he would leave so early, so he didn't make preparations early."
Hua Ruiming asked: "Aniang, do you know anything?"
Liu shook her head and said, "I don't know much, and you also know that your father doesn't let women get involved in Long Shadow Guard's affairs.
Once, your father and Chen Song were discussing something in the study. I went to deliver sweet soup to your father, and I heard a few words at the door. "
Hua Ruiming straightened his back, looked at Mrs. Liu and asked, "What did Aniang hear?"
Liu Shi thought for a while and said, "They spoke in a low voice in the house, so I couldn't really hear them outside.
It seems to be saying that no matter what, you have to find the Dragon Mark Order or something. Only by finding the Dragon Mark Order can you get the key and map from Lao Zongfang.
I wanted to listen again, but Chen Liang came over and called me. Your father heard the sound outside the door and stopped. Just these few words, I don’t know what map or key it is. "
Hua Ruiming nodded and said: "I know that my father has been looking for the dragon pattern order. My father asked people to turn over the old house several times to find the dragon pattern order.
The emperor asked for the land deed, but it was also because of the Dragon Mark Order? "
Hua Ruiming thought for a while and shook his head, "Probably not. The Emperor has known about the Dragon Mark Order for a long time and has never interfered before. He will not interfere now."
Ms. Liu felt uneasy and said, "It's so good, why does the emperor want the land deed?"
Hua Ruiming raised his hand and rubbed his temples, and said: "Don't think about it, I've already asked someone to inquire, and there will be news back soon. I didn't rest well last night. I'm going to be very sleepy now. I'm going to take a nap." "
Mrs. Liu muttered: "Go, go. From now on, you should go to less flower houses. If you like something, raise it. Do you understand?"
Hua Ruiming responded as he walked out: "I know."
Not long after Hua Ruiming took a rest, An Xu came in and said, "Master!"
Hua Ruiming was woken up by someone just as he fell asleep. He glared at An Xu angrily and said, "What's the matter? Didn't I see you just fell asleep?"
An Xu slumped his shoulders and stood by the side with his hands down, not daring to speak.
Hua Ruiming sat up angrily and shouted: "I woke up the general, and you are mute again? Say, what's the matter?"
An Xu glanced at Hua Ruiming and whispered, "I have a letter handed back."
Hua Ruiming then remembered the business. He raised his hand and patted his head and said, "I forgot about this. What letter did you send back?"
Seeing that his master had regained consciousness, An Xu took a step forward and said, "Eunuch Gao from the palace has left the palace..."
Before An Xu could finish speaking, Hua Ruiming interrupted: "Eunuch Gao has left the palace. Which Eunuch Gao is the one next to the emperor?"
An Xu nodded repeatedly, "Yes, Eunuch Gao, who is beside the emperor."
"Where did Eunuch Gao go out of the palace? The British Duke's Mansion? Did the Emperor know about Mr. Lu Er? Did he let the British Eunuch enter the palace to question him?" Hua Ruiming asked with interest.
An Xu shook his head, "No, Eunuch Gao went to Wutong Lane."
Hua Ruiming frowned and asked, "Wutong Alley? Is there any restaurant in Wutong Alley worth a visit to Eunuch Gao?"
An Xu looked at Hua Ruiming gossiping and said, "Master, you must not have thought of where Eunuch Gao went to? In fact, I have seen this man before."
Hua Ruiming was even more confused, "Have you seen him before? Who is it? There are no people with high official positions in Wutong Lane..."
Hua Ruiming was thinking about someone who lived in Wutong Lane while talking.
An Xu reminded: "I forgot, Miss Gu lives in Wutong Lane..."
Hua Ruiming turned to look at An Xu. Of course he knew that Gu Huayu lived in Wutong Lane.
He sent people to keep an eye on Gu Huayu until the British Duke's people spotted Gu Huayu. He was afraid that the British Duke's people would recognize his people, so he withdrew them.
“Eunuch Gao went to see Miss Gu?”
An Xu nodded, "Eunuch Gao went to Wutong Lane to announce the decree, and the emperor issued a decree to make Miss Gu the Princess of Yanran."
The inquirer was far away, so he only heard a rough idea, not a very real one.
I only know that Eunuch Gao went to Wutong Lane to announce the decree, and Gu Huayu accepted the decree. The emperor made Gu Huayu the princess. "
Hua Ruiming frowned and asked, "Why did the emperor make Miss Gu the princess?"
An Xu shook his head, "I don't know. The inquirer came back without reporting."
Previously, his mother had discussed with him about having a foreign wife. Hua Ruiming was still thinking about taking Gu Huayu in and waiting for Gu Huayu to give birth to a son and a half daughter before taking her back to his house.
Why did the emperor suddenly make her the princess? She has become the princess, how can he let her be the concubine?
Hua Ruiming was depressed.
An Xu saw his master frowning and thought Hua Ruiming was wondering why the emperor made Gu Huayu the princess.
Then he said: "Don't worry, I will ask someone to find out why the emperor made Miss Gu the princess."
Although Hua Ruiming was not worried about this, he also wanted to know why the emperor made Gu Huayu the princess.
Hua Ruiming waved his hand and said, "Go quickly!"
An Xu turned around and retreated.
Thinking that Gu Huayu had become the princess and that he could no longer reach her, Hua Ruiming couldn't sleep anymore and fidgeted in circles in the room.
He said in annoyance, "If I had known that this would happen, I should have taken action earlier and caught it in my mouth."
Just when Hua Ruiming was feeling upset, An Xu left and returned.
Hua Ruiming asked anxiously: "Did you get the letter?"
An Xu shook his head and said, "No, it was someone from Mr. Jiang's side who came over to hand over a message asking him to go to Fanlou to get together."
Hua Ruiming waved his hands impatiently, "I won't go, I won't go. I'm very upset today! How can I be in the mood for a party? I went to call him back and said he was busy and couldn't leave."
An Xu bowed down and stepped back out.
As soon as An Xu retreated to the door, Hua Ruiming raised his hand and said, "Wait, there's no need to go back, I'm going! Have someone prepare the car and help me change my clothes."
An Xu agreed and turned around to give instructions.
On this day, the capital was too lively. In the morning, the news that the father and son of the British government shared a woman spread throughout the capital.
In the afternoon, two imperial edicts and an oral edict came from the palace and spread among the major families.
After hearing Du Bin's report, Britain was so shocked that he couldn't recover for a long time.
Du Bin stood on the side with his hands hanging down, holding his breath to reduce his sense of presence. With his many years of experience in serving the British Duke, the Duke was very angry at this time.
After a long time, the Duke asked, "Where is Ziqin? Let him come to see me."
Du Bin bowed down and went out to tell people to look for Lu Ziqin.
Lü Ziqin and Eunuch Gao left the palace together. Eunuch Gao went to Wutong Lane, and Lü Ziqin returned to Chengguo Duke's Mansion.
At Cheng Guogong's Mansion, Ye Minghao invited Mr. Shi to the mansion for tea at the request of Lu Ziqin.
Second Master Shi thought that Ye Minghao had something to say to him, so he drank three pots of tea with him, but did not see Ye Minghao say anything serious, so he said, "Zhifei, we have been friends for many years, so if you have anything to say, just say it."
Ye Minghao smiled bitterly and said, "I want to say it too, but I don't know where to start."
Shi Hechang thought that Ye Minghao was going to ask about his sister, so he asked with concern: "Have you encountered something unspeakable? There is nothing hard to say between us brothers. Just tell me, and I will analyze it for you. Maybe you can I found a solution.”
Ye Minghao spread his hands and said, "It's not that I have anything to say, it's Ziqin who asked me to date you, and he has something to say to you.
Unexpectedly, I invited you here, and he came to the palace in an emergency.
I can only leave you to drink tea and wait for him to come back. Are you okay today? I won’t delay you, right? "
Shi Hechang was stunned. Many years ago, he and Lu Ziqin could play together. Later, the third sister chased Lu Ziqin. In order to avoid embarrassment, he tried to avoid situations where Lu Ziqin was involved.
Later, Lu Ziqin was traveling abroad and was not in the capital... Counting it all together, they hadn't gotten together for five or six years. Why did Lu Ziqin suddenly ask him out?
"Do you know why Ziqin wants to see me?" Shi Hechang asked.
Ye Minghao shook his head, "I don't know either. He came over this morning and asked me to date you, but..."
“Uncle, Master Six is back.” Ming Xin entered the room and reported.
As soon as Mingxin finished speaking, Ye Minghao stood up and asked, "Have you told him we are waiting for him here?"
“I’m sorry to keep you waiting for so long.” Lu Ziqin stepped into Tingzhu Island and cupped his hands towards the two people in the pavilion.
"You are finally back. I even asked He Chang to drink three pots of tea." Ye Minghao said.
Lu Ziqin did not go down the long corridor, but crossed the courtyard and walked up the stairs quickly. As he walked, he said, "I encountered something urgent and had to go to the palace. I'm sorry."
While talking, Lu Ziqin came to the pavilion and bowed towards Shi Hechang.
Shi Hechang stood up, returned the gift with his hands, and said politely: "It's okay, I have nothing to do today anyway. Come on, sit down!"
Shi Hechang went to greet Lu Ziqin.
Ye Minghao poured tea for Lu Ziqin and asked, "What's the emergency? I want you to go to the palace in a hurry."
Lv Ziqin took the tea from Ye Minghao's hand, lowered his head and took two sips, and said, "Mrs. Ping and Miss Shi San went to Huayu Pavilion on Taoyuan Street this morning."
Ye Minghao and Shi Hechang looked at Lu Ziqin. Ye Minghao asked: "Huayu Pavilion? Which rouge shop does Miss Gu open?"
Lu Ziqin nodded, "Well, it's Xiaoyu who opens that shop."
Shi Hechang heard Sanmei and Yang Jing talking about Gu Huayu and asked, "Is there anything wrong with my mother and Yamei going to Miss Gu's shop?"
Lu Ziqin shook his head and said, "There is nothing wrong. Mrs. Ping recognized Xiaoyu as a child of the Hua family fifteen years ago."
"What? A child from the Hua family?" Shi Hechang stood up and looked at Lu Ziqin in shock.
Ye Minghao looked at Lu Ziqin, then at Shi Hechang, and asked: "Which flower house? The flower house on Yongchun Road?"
Shi Hechang stared at Lu Ziqin, waiting for his answer to confirm the questions in his heart.
Lu Ziqin nodded, "Yes, my mother went with Mrs. Ping. My mother said that Xiaoyu looked very much like Uncle Hua. The mole on Xiaoyu's right earlobe confirmed that she was the child of the Hua family, and she also brought Xiaoyu with her. I want to go to Wanfu to visit Mrs. Ping."
Ye Minghao refilled Ye Minghao's tea and said: "Hechang, sit down and talk. That day, when I met Miss Gu in the south of the city, I felt that Miss Gu was extraordinary. I didn't expect that she was Uncle Hua's daughter. Qingyan, Gu Did the lady already know her life experience? "
Lv Ziqin said speciously: "You have to ask Xiao Yu to find out."
Ye Minghao asked: "What are you going to do in the palace? Tell the emperor about this?"
Lu Ziqin nodded, "Well, Uncle Hua died in mysterious circumstances. The emperor asked the Ministry of Punishment to accept the case. Fifteen years later, there has been no result. Who knows what is going on behind the scenes?
I was worried that the people behind the scenes would be disadvantageous to Xiaoyu if they found out, so I went to the palace and informed the emperor, who would reveal Xiaoyu’s identity. "
Seeing Lu Ziqin's small words on the left and another on the right, Shi Hechang asked curiously: "Qing Yan and Yan Ran are familiar with each other?"
Ye Minghao coaxed: "Yes, Qingyan, are you familiar with Miss Gu? Are you worried that it's not just a business partnership?"
Ye Minghao asked and raised his eyebrows at Lu Ziqin.
Lu Ziqin glanced at Ye Minghao, then turned around and replied to Shi Hechang's words, "Xiaoyu is my savior. If she hadn't saved me back then, I might have died long ago."
Ye Minghao took the words and said half-jokingly: "Because of this kindness, Qingyan planned to marry him with his life, but unexpectedly, the British prince ignored Qingyan's wishes and forcibly arranged a marriage for him in the Prime Minister's Palace."
Shi Hechang couldn't comment on Lu Ziqin's marriage. At this moment, he wanted to return to Shi's house as soon as possible. So he said bluntly: "What is Qingyan's appointment with me today?"
Lu Ziqin originally wanted to use Yang Yushi's hand to impeach Lu Dingning, but he changed his mind after returning from the palace. So he said: "It's nothing serious. We haven't sat together for many years. I wanted to see if you have some free time today and have a cup of tea together."
Ye Minghao looked at Lu Ziqin doubtfully, since when did this kid start telling lies? Did he look okay when he ordered him? He clearly had a solemn look on his face.
Shi Hechang stood up and cupped his hands and said, "Then let's meet up another day. I want to go back home early to have a look."
Lu Ziqin stood up, cupped his hands and said: "I came out of the palace with Eunuch Gao. Eunuch Gao went to Wutong Lane to announce the decree. The emperor named Xiaoyu Princess Yanran. At this moment, Xiaoyu may have gone to Wanfu to pick up Mrs. Ping. ”
Shi Hechang asked in surprise: "The emperor made Yanran the princess?"
Lu Ziqin nodded, "Yes, Princess Yanran has also decreed that Mr. Wan and Mrs. Ping will reconcile. This is Xiaoyu's request."
Shi Hechang said hello happily twice, turned around and walked out hurriedly, "Zhifei, Qingyan, I'm going back home first, let's meet up another day."
Lu Ziqin and Ye Minghao sent Shi Hechang to the door of the house. They watched Shi Hechang walk away before they turned around and walked back.
Ye Minghao asked: "You came here today to find Hechang. Is it really okay?"
Lu Ziqin turned his head to look at Ye Minghao and said, "It's really okay. You still don't believe me?"
“Sir, someone from Fourth Master Jiang’s side came over and handed over a message saying that he had booked a table at Fanlou and asked me to come over and get together.” Ru’an came over and reported.
Ye Minghao smiled and said, "I see that you are very busy every day."
Lv Ziqin looked at Ye Minghao and said, "Together?"
Ye Minghao shook his head, "A gathering of you and me is indispensable without the playboy. Mr. Ye can't stand the playboy's behavior, so don't go and cause trouble for yourself. You can go alone."
Thank you for your votes, thank you all! I wish everyone a happy May Day and everything goes well!
