Married Thrice to Salted Fish - Chapter 71

After Gu Fuzhou wrote the letter of guarantee, he solemnly handed it over to Lin Qingyu. Lin Qingyu took a look, and it was Gu Fuzhou’s usual style, full of papers in the vernacular. When Gu Fuzhou wrote letters with others, or wrote memorials, he often used words to refine his literary skills, but he was also one of the best among the generals. Only when I write something to him, how comfortable I am, and occasionally draw a few simple strokes.

Reason tells Lin Qingyu that whether it is a promise or a guarantee, it is nothing more than wishful thinking. When doom comes, how can a piece of vernacular be able to stop it. But now, his heart has settled down because of Gu Fuzhou’s promise and guarantee.

Whether it is Lu Wancheng or Gu Fuzhou, this person has never let him down, no matter how indifferent and lazy to follow suit. He is willing to believe him.

Lin Qingyu put away the guarantee: “I’m fine.”

Gu Fuzhou breathed a sigh of relief while feeling a little regretful. Sensitive, fragile, red-eyed beauties are too hard to see. Being watched gently by Lin Qingyu, he felt for a few moments that he had fallen into an indelible danger. It seems that as long as Lin Qingyu speaks, he can give him anything, even waking up early for him for a lifetime.

Lin Qingyu was also embarrassed by her short-term gaffe, pretending to be calm and said: “Go to sleep.”

“Okay.” Gu Fuzhou opened the quilt, put Lin Qingyu in the bed, helped him to lie down, and then lay on it himself.

Lin Qingyu opened her eyes slightly: “You…”

Gu Fuzhou’s cheeks were hot, and while spitting on his shamelessness, he covered himself and Lin Qingyu with quilts, and said naturally: “I will put you to sleep before going up.”

“You coax me to sleep?” Lin Qingyu said amusedly, “I don’t know who is the one who fell asleep as soon as I touched the pillow.”

When Gu Fuzhou asked the carpenter to make the upper and lower bunks, he did not consider that he would sleep with Lin Qingyu in the body of General Gu. It was just right for the two teenagers to lie down on the lower bunk, but now they are clearly squeezed a bit. He changed his body, and Lin Qingyu also grew up a bit. The little beauty who had a bad temper in the past has become a big and deep-minded beauty. No matter how bad the temper is, she knows that she will stop at the right time, and she will find a way to kill people directly. Only in front of him, he will unscrupulously expose his malice.

Gu Fuzhou laughed and leaned on Lin Qingyu. The two people’s long hair was scattered on a pillow and intertwined.

“Want to hear bedtime stories?” Gu Fuzhou asked.

Lin Qingyu said, “Tell me about your hometown.”

“You seem to be very interested in this?”

“I’m interested in everything about you.”

Gu Fuzhou’s mouth burst into a smile: “Then I’ll talk to you about the mobile phone. The mobile phone is a very important tool in my hometown. If you go to my hometown one day and are separated from me, you can find me on your mobile phone. Write down this string of numbers…”

As Gu Fuzhou spoke, his voice became smaller and smaller, and it didn’t take long for it to be completely silent. To be honest, Lin Qingyu was surprised that he could last so long without falling asleep. Lin Qingyu tucked the quilt and closed her eyes beside Gu Fuzhou’s pillow.

I don’t know how long it took, and felt that Lin Qingyu’s breathing was smooth for a long time, so Gu Fuzhou opened one eye first, and after confirming that Lin Qingyu was asleep, he opened the other eye.

Gu Fuzhou’s eyes were clear, without the slightest drowsiness. He and Lin Qingyu lie face-to-face, close at hand, can’t even see the whole face of the other person, but still see his heart shake. He couldn’t help but stretched out his hand, pulled Lin Qingyu’s blue silk from his forehead behind his ear, and whispered: “Good night, Qingyu.”

The next day was Lu Wancheng’s death day. After Lin Qingyu sent Gu Fuzhou to the court, he took Huantong and Hualu to Nan’an Hou Mansion.

Not long ago, Pan gave birth to a healthy boy in October. Nan’an Hou Mansion swept away the deadness of the past, and revived it again. The people of Nan’an Hou were full of spirits on happy occasions. They rose up above the court and regained the power of the household department. The emperor also meant to reuse him.

When Lin Qingyu arrived at the Hou Mansion, Nan’an Hou also went to the palace, and it was Pan that received him.

“I was still thinking yesterday whether Dr. Lin will come today.” Pan is still in good spirits after giving birth, but he has become more prosperous. Although she is still a concubine now, the servants of the Hou Mansion have regarded her as the mistress. After Pan’s pregnancy, Nan’an Hou probably felt that he was still young and took a few more concubines intermittently. There was no movement in the belly of these concubines, and they did not dare to be a demon in front of her.

Pan didn’t want to fight for favor, and took his son to take care of the housekeeper, and life was going well.

Lin Qingyu said, “I will come on the death day of Master Xiaohou. How about Master Xiaohou’s brother?”

Pan said with a gentle smile: “The young master is white and fat, a lap older than the usual children of this month. At the end of last month, it was the full moon of the young master. I wanted to hand over the invitation to the General’s Mansion.” Shi smiled slightly, “But Lord Hou said…”

“Auntie doesn’t need to say much, I understand.” Lin Qingyu looked sideways at Hualu. Hualu understood her heart, took out a brocade box, and said: “This is a long-life lock specially ordered by the young master to give it to Young Master Lu. I hope that Young Master can grow up in peace.”

Pan hurriedly got up with the help of the maid: “I thanked Dr. Lin for the young master.”

The two talked for a while, and it was time for sacrifice. In Lu’s ancestral hall, the servants offered cooked food in front of Lu Wancheng’s tablet, which meant that the deceased could “try new”. Later, he moved to the brazier, and Lin Qingyu lit the paper money into it to condolences the undead. Pan also specially invited monks from Changsheng Temple to recite sutras for Lu Wancheng.

After everything was over, it was almost time for dinner. Pan was not sure whether to leave Lin Qingyu for dinner. At this hour, Master Hou should also be back. Master Hou certainly didn’t want to see his former daughter-in-law.

Pan hesitated, but Lin Qingyu did not take the initiative to leave. Not long after, the steward came to spread the word, saying that Nan’anhou was back. Pan looked at Lin Qingyu in embarrassment: “Doctor Lin, this…”

Lin Qingyu smiled slightly: “It just so happens, I may not have asked Master Hou to please.”

Nan’anhou returned to the mansion and saw Lin Qingyu, which was even worse because of the frustrated mood of his son’s death. Even if Lin Qingyu is now the male wife of General Fu Guo, he can’t give a good expression: “What is the general wife doing in my house.”

“Mrs. General is here to pay homage to the young master.” Pan persuaded, “He is also kind.”

Nan’an Hou coldly snorted, and said, “The Lin family was separated from the house on that day, so he said that she would be absolutely irrelevant in the future. My Lu family has never had a male wife, and the general’s wife has no name and no distinction in the house. Aren’t you afraid of making others laugh and embarrassing the general?”

Lin Qingyu said indifferently: “The general has a broad mind and pretends to be his family, the country, and the world. How can he mind such trivial things. Lord Hou does not need to worry about him.”

Nan’an Hou Qijie: “Do you have a relationship with the Lu family, right or wrong!”

“It’s not that I want to build a relationship with the Lu family, but that there are some things in the Lu family that need me to deal with.” Lin Qingyu said, “Auntie, if there is nothing else, it is better to go and see the young master first.”

Pan knew that Lin Qingyu was going to talk to Nan Anhou alone, so he had to take his people to leave. When Nan’anhou saw this, he even said coldly to Pan: “You do what he asks you to do? You have forgotten who you are!”

Pan was stunned: “Master Hou…”

Lin Qingyu didn’t have the patience to appreciate the Lu family’s house: “It’s Master Hou who wants so many people to see it, so I can’t blame me.”

“What do you mean?!”

Lin Qingyu said: “Hua Lu, go and ask Guan Shi to come over.”

After Lin Qingyu left Nan’an Hou Mansion, Zhang Shiquan stayed in the Hou Mansion to take care of the accounting affairs. He had received news early in the morning that Lin Qingyu would come today, and he had prepared everything Lin Qingyu wanted, and had been waiting outside early.

Zhang Shiquan held a stack of ledger books and greeted several people: “I have seen Mrs. General, Master Hou, Auntie.”

Nan’anhou asked Lin Qingyu: “What do you ask him to do.”

Lin Qingyu raised his eyelashes, and Zhang Shiquan presented the account book to Nan’anhou for review. Nan’anhou picked up the top one and looked at it suspiciously. After a few pages, his expression became more and more serious: “This, this is…”

Lin Qingyu said unhurriedly: “Looking at Lord Hou’s appearance, it seems that he has no idea about this matter.”

Nan’anhou’s face was pale and the crowd fluttered away, leaving him alone in the house, Lin Qingyu and Zhang Shiquan. “What the **** is this?” Nan’an Hou said, “Where did these huge sums of money come from, and why are they on the account book of the Hou Mansion!”

Zhang Shiquan asked Lin Qingyu for instructions, and after getting his approval, he said, “What is Hou Ye’s saying? The money is earned by your continuation of the Liang family’s painstaking efforts, and it is naturally credited to the account of the Hou Mansion.”

Although Nan’an Hou rarely asked about family affairs, he knew well about the shop Biezhuang run by the Hou Mansion. Such a large sum of money is by no means the income of a restaurant or a farmer. Two words popped out of his mind, and his feet staggered with fright.

“Master Hou probably guessed it too.” Zhang Shiquan said, “In today’s world, only selling private salt can make such a huge profit. According to the Dayu Law, selling private salt over a certain amount is a capital crime. Don’t you know?”

Nan’an Hou naturally knew. Not long ago, he personally handled a case involving a local official operating private salt. All members of the official’s clan were involved in the sale of illegal salt, and due to the large number, he was sentenced to full-fledged copycats. Looking at the records on the account book, the Liang clan is even worse.

Nan’an Hou didn’t expect Liang’s madness to cause such a big disaster to him. He couldn’t wait to kill her immediately: “Bitch!” He stared at Lin Qingyu with protruding eyes, “When did you find out? Why is it now? Say!”

Lin Qingyu said: “Because Lord Hou just said, I have nothing to do with Nan’an Hou Mansion. Even if the Hou Mansion provokes Longyan’s anger and falls down overnight, I can continue to be my general’s wife. Uncertain, if you see me exposing meritorious service, you can reward me for reinstatement. Do you think it is right?”

The word “reveal” made the official Nan’an Hou shudder: “You…”

Lin Qingyu said again: “It’s a pity, the little master has only just been full moon. Once this matter is revealed, I don’t know if he can live for a hundred days.”

Nan’an Hou did not hesitate to say: “Poisonous woman, threatened me with an innocent child!” Nan’an Hou got his son after losing his son one after another, and regarded this child as more important than anything else. He was desperate for his life and wanted to save the child.

“Threat?” Lin Qingyu smiled pityingly, “Master Hou misunderstood, I just kindly reminded Master Hou.”

Zhang Shiquan said, “Master Hou, your wife’s family did it. For the sake of Master Xiaohou’s face, Mrs. General concealed the matter so far, so you can return to the court and regain the holy favor. If I were you, I Thank you Mrs. General for not having time, so how can you accuse me arbitrarily.”

Nan’anhou’s officialdom is not for nothing. Lin Qingyu concealed it and brought it up suddenly, there must be something for him to do. He hates being controlled by others the most in his life, but for the glory of Lu’s, for the sake of his newborn child, he has to succumb: “After all, what do you want?”

Lin Qingyu smiled with satisfaction: “Don’t worry, Lord Hou, I won’t let you do anything that hurts the world and violates the principles of loyalty to the emperor. I just want you to make a memorial, and please honor the title of Prince Xu, the fourth prince.”

Nan’an Hou was taken aback: “Four princes?”

“Exactly.”

Xiao Jie not only had a low sense of presence in the sage, but also in the minister’s office. If Lin Qingyu hadn’t mentioned it, Nan’an Hou would have forgotten that he had not yet been crowned king.

Nan’an Hou suspiciously asked: “It’s that simple?”

“At the moment… it’s that simple.”

Nan’anhou was indecisive. The four princes have reached their age and have left the palace. It is reasonable to make a county king. If it is a prince, I am afraid it will make the prince displeased. He asked again: “Why doesn’t General Gu play by himself?”

Lin Qingyu said: “Is Hou Ye frightened stupid?”

Nan’anhou became angry from embarrassment: “Don’t talk nonsense!”

“The emperor and the prince were suspicious of the general. I don’t want the general to be implicated in it.” Lin Qingyu said calmly, “Does Hou know what I mean?”

No matter how reluctant, Nan’an Hou could only say, “This Hou…understood.”

For Xiao Jie’s appointment of the king, Nan’an Hou had spoken before, and the harem also needed a person to respond, so that it can be foolproof. The first thing Lin Qingyu thought of was the queen. The queen had taken care of him in the past, but since he married Gu Fuzhou, he has obviously been cold towards him. He went to Fengyi Palace several times to ask for a meeting, but was blocked.

The empress’s affection and righteousness are only to her family. In her opinion, Lin Qingyu remarried others before her filial piety period, so don’t blame her for turning her face and refusing to recognize others.

Fortunately, in addition to Lu Wancheng, the Queen’s own family has one more, and it is the most important one for her.

On this day, Lin Qingyu completed the request of Ping An pulse for the emperor, and went to the library of the Imperial Medical Office with Hu Ji, who had ended his rotation. Lin Qingyu walked straight to the innermost point, where there was a locked iron gate. He had previously received the emperor’s verbal order on the grounds that he wanted to see all the cases of the saint since he caught the headwind. The guard in the library opened the door. After the two entered, Hu Ji curiously asked, “Doctor Lin, what are you looking for?”

Lin Qingyu said: “The case of the Sixth Prince Xiao Li.”
