Chapter 198
Qin Huaisu is the most handsome and personable man she has ever seen. She grew up in Xining, so naturally she has no shortage of courtiers.

Moreover, her father, the old king of Xining, also praised Qin Huaisu quite a lot before he was alive, and once joked about whether he should be captured as his son-in-law for Zhao'er.

If it is possible to marry with Dasheng, then Xining and Dasheng will be able to maintain a friendly relationship forever.Moreover, Qin Huaisu had already fought in the battlefield at a young age, and his future achievements were immeasurable.If it is married with the Dasheng Kingdom, Xining's national power will also increase accordingly, and even if the Xixia Kingdom intends to annex Xining, it will be three points afraid of it.

Therefore, she came to Dasheng this time to marry Qin Huaisu, which is also the main purpose of Zhaoyue's trip.It's just that she didn't expect that Qin Huaisu would reject her without hesitation before she even opened her mouth.

Zhaoyue looked at Qin Huaisu's exquisite face, and a greedy desire appeared in her eyes.

Ever since she was a child, there was nothing she could not have.

Zhaoyue stared at Qin Huaisu for a moment, and the possessive desire in her heart became stronger and stronger. She wanted to hold the man in front of her firmly in her hands and take this man as her own.Zhaoyue doesn't know what's wrong with her, she just knows that she wants this man, no matter what method she uses, even if she sacrifices her life.

"Qin Huaisu, do you know what you're talking about, do you know what you're doing?" Zhaoyue looked at Qin Huaisu angrily, with a ferocious expression on her face, like a poisonous snake. Flashing with anger, resentment, and greed, the constantly flashing flame is like a beast that has been hungry for a long time, ready to pounce on the enemy at any time and tear him apart, devouring his flesh piece by piece, swallowing it in one gulp, not even the scum left.

Qin Huaisu, however, no longer looked at Zhaoyue, who was in a panic, and put one arm around Jiang Changning's waist, he lightly told the guards behind him: "Keep an eye on them, and kill them if there is any abnormal behavior."

"Princess..." Hu Jiu's eyes turned red with anger, but Zhaoyue calmed down instead. She took a deep look at Qin Huaisu: "Today's humiliation will be doubled in the future."

Under the watchful eyes of the palace guards, Zhaoyue and his party left sullenly.

Jiang Changning looked at their backs thoughtfully.

"Princess Xining should like you." Qin Huaisu was noncommittal: "There are many people who like this king, but there is only one person in my heart." His hand caressed Jiang Changning's slender waist dishonestly. : "The kid surnamed Gu wants to see you, see you."

The big palm on the waist was very hot and numb for a while, Jiang Changning blushed and glared at Qin Huaisu angrily, but it made the other party even more elated, and coaxed with a smile on his face: "I heard that Baiweizhai has a new product. Dessert, do you want to try it?"

Jiang Changning was very helpless, but seeing Qin Huaisu's refusal, he couldn't say anything.

After eating snacks to appease Qin Huaisu, Jiang Changning still went to the secret prison of Yanwang Mansion.

After all, she is also a little curious, what else does Gu Han want to say to her now.

The cell was dark and damp, and there was a foul stench in the air.

The iron chains outside the prison made a clanging sound, which made people feel creepy, as if evil spirits would jump out of this cage at any time to claim their lives.

Jiang Changning opened the door and entered, and saw Gu Han sitting on a pile of hay, with disheveled hair, crumpled clothes, and an unpleasant smell, Jiang Changning couldn't help frowning.

"You're here, sit down." Gu Han looked up at Jiang Changning with a gleam in his eyes.He forced a smile, his face was pale, and he looked as if he was dying of a terminal illness.

Jiang Changning's eyes fell on his missing left hand, but she didn't say anything but looked away calmly.

The dungeon in the dungeon made people breathless: "What do you want me for?" Jiang Changning asked bluntly.

Gu Han shook his head, but his eyes were a little confused: "I don't know, I just want to see you and hear your voice."

"You..." Jiang Changning frowned and was speechless.

"You don't have to be afraid, now I'm a useless person, I can't hurt you." Gu Han smiled bleakly, and looked at Jiang Changning fixedly.

"You can say whatever you want." Jiang Changning sighed. For some reason, she always felt that such a Gu Han was weird, and she couldn't tell what was so weird about it.

Gu Han's eyes kept looking at Jiang Changning. He had lost weight all these days in detention, his cheeks were deeply sunken, his cheekbones were protruding, and his shape was a bit scary.

But his expression at this moment is not as gloomy as usual, but it adds to the relief. I don't know if it is relief.

Jiang Changning waited for him to speak, but the prison was silent for a while, and the airtight place fell silent, as if time had stood still.

Gu Han looked deeply at Jiang Changning, and finally coughed lightly with an itchy throat, breaking the silence.

"I should say sorry to you." Gu Han lowered his eyes and did not speak clearly.

Jiang Changning has no intention of entangled with him about the right and wrong of the previous life, everything in the previous life has been settled, at least so far in this life, Gu Han has not done anything that really hurt her.And the crimes of raising vicious wolves in captivity and hurting people in Qingfeng Villa are also punished by law, and have nothing to do with her.

"You should talk to the girl from the Shen family." Jiang Changning said lightly.Because Shen Yao was injured so badly by Gu Han, she might leave scars and affect her life in the future. This is not something that Gu Han can just say sorry.

Gu Han knew that Jiang Changning didn't want to talk about his past life with him, and he didn't want to admit that he had anything to do with him, so he subconsciously pulled the corners of his mouth, but he still couldn't make a smile, his lips moved but didn't make any sound.

Jiang Changning waited for a long while but did not see anything valuable that Gu Han could say. He tiptoed his toes and was about to leave when Gu Han suddenly said, "Be careful with Jiang Luo."

Jiang Changning looked up at him in surprise, although she knew that Gu Han and Jiang Luo would inevitably collude, but it was unexpected that Gu Han said this.

Gu Han closed his eyes. He looked back on his absurd half of his life. The two lifetimes were unbearable. Although everything he did was done by himself, Jiang Luo's persuasive inducement contributed to the flames. He seemed to have been controlled by Jiang Luo all the time. sanity.It was only at this moment that he realized how sad all this was.

Jiang Changning didn't ask him why he said that, but nodded silently.

"You go."

Gu Han took a deep look at Jiang Changning, as if he wanted to engrave her voice and smile in his heart, he closed his eyes and sighed softly.

Jiang Changning turned and left without nostalgia. Qin Huaisu's people had already been guarding the door in case Gu Han would be ill and abrupt, and the person whom the King of Banquet had on top of his heart saw her come out and hurriedly stepped forward to send her away.

Gu Han was the only one left in the secret cell, and there was a faint smell of blood in the air, as well as a gloomy, sunless dampness.

The pain that had been suppressed in his chest could no longer be unbearable, and a mouthful of black blood gushed out from his throat.Gu Han lay on the haystack uncontrollably and vomited a few mouthfuls of blood again. The pain in his limbs made him look grim, and the veins on his neck bulged, and it didn't disappear until a moment later. His whole body was like a ball of rags. Live.

After Gu Han's matter was settled, Jiang Changning found some ointment for removing scars and sent them to Shen's residence.Although she was not close to Shen Yao, and even had few personal relationships, she was present when the accident happened, and now that she returned safely and heard about her injuries, she still felt a little worried.

The Jiang Mansion subsided for a while, and the hot air from the three-volt period also dissipated, and the day was finally much cooler.

This day, Jiang Changbai went out for a small gathering, and brought back an exciting news, which awakened the silent Jiang Mansion again.

"Brother is talking about Mr. Qingbai, a great Confucian in the world?"

Jiang Changning put down the dim sum in his hand, with longing in his eyes.

That Mr. Qingbai knows rituals and music, the number of imperial books, his literary talent is brilliant, his paintings are hard to buy, and his paintings will last forever. How could such a person intend to accept another closed disciple?
Jiang Changbai also couldn't hide his admiration, "Smart people are mostly silent. Mr. Qingbai now intends to accept apprentices to preach, which is a blessing for us scholars. There is no distinction between men and women in accepting apprentices. Changning can also participate if he wants to. "At the end, he sighed wistfully again, "Mr. Qingbai's willingness to accept closed-door disciples will surely spread throughout the capital in the near future, and there will be huge crowds of candidates by then. I'm afraid this matter will not be easy."

"What brother said is that we need to prepare well for this matter." Jiang Changning nodded, his eyes shining brightly.

She really wanted to ask Mr. Qingbai to be her teacher to learn imperial scripts, but this matter still needs to be carefully planned.

This matter concerns the entire Jiang family, so it must not be sloppy.

"Mr. Qingbai's acceptance of closed disciples is naturally beyond the reach of ordinary people, but since Mr. Qingbai has made such a move, anyone can give it a try if they want to."

Jiang Changbai was talking, but his heart moved when he looked at Jiang Changning.This younger sister has always been smart, and it is not impossible to stand out and win the top spot.

"Brother, don't worry, I will plan well."

Hearing Jiang Changbai's words, Jiang Changning's eyes flickered slightly, and she naturally couldn't give up this opportunity.

"Then sister, let's prepare first! Remember, don't be impulsive in this matter."

Jiang Changbai waved his hand to let Jiang Changning leave after giving instructions. This time, there was a lot of noise about Mr. Qing's selection of apprentices. All the high-ranking nobles in Beijing came to participate, and naturally there were many relatives of the emperor and the families of high-ranking officials.

They all hope to take this opportunity to win the favor of Mr. Innocent, so as to become popular in the eyes of the Holy One, and also add a layer of protection to their official careers.

However, Mr. Qingbai has always been aloof and arrogant, and ordinary people don't even bother to see him.

Therefore, some people with high status in Beijing thought of a way to let the young and handsome people in the family go to the suburbs of Beijing to visit. All the conditions offered are the highest, hoping to impress Mr. Innocent and gain Mr. Innocent’s favor.

But I heard that they all returned without success in the end. Of course, this is a story.

This matter soon spread to Gu's mansion. Although Jiang Luo had never seen Mr. Innocent, she had heard of his name. When she first entered Jiang's mansion, Jiang Changning tripped over because of Mr. Innocent's painting , I can't tell whether it's for revenge or other thoughts. Although Jiang Luo has no respect for this person, she is indispensable for being in the limelight.

When eating in the evening, she said in front of Gu Xiujing and Gu's mother that she was going to participate in the trial to win Mr. Innocent's closed disciples.

Gu's mother was not very happy in her heart. It is a good thing that contemporary scholars are willing to accept apprentices, but now that Gu Xiujing is in such a body, and he can't easily show his face, he can't even participate, but Jiang Luo happily wants to get involved, which makes Xiujing What is it like in your heart?Besides, Jiang Luo is a member of her Gu family, it is already a certainty, so what is it like to go out and show her face!

Gu's mother was quite dissatisfied with this matter, but she couldn't say anything, after all, Gu Xiujing had already agreed to Jiang Luo, if she refused him this time, wouldn't it be a disgrace to him.Besides, Jiang Luo is Gu Xiujing's wife after all, and Gu Xiujing is the only heir of the Gu family, so it is up to him to make up his mind.

"What do you think, Xiujing?" Mother Gu asked, looking at Gu Xiujing who was sitting on the other side.

Gu Xiujing bowed her head to eat and did not speak, but her face was a little stiff, as if unwilling.Seeing that Gu Xiujing didn't answer, Jiang Luo decided that he had already agreed, and a flash of success flashed in his eyes.

Mother Gu's face changed when she saw that Gu Xiujing was silent.

"Jiang Luo is still pregnant with her child, so running around here and there is not fooling around!" Gu's mother was a little anxious.

"Mother, don't worry about it, I have a sense of proportion." Gu Xiujing put down his chopsticks and replied indifferently.

Gu Xiujing's attitude made Gu's mother extremely annoyed, and she couldn't care less about other things. She took Gu Xiujing's hand and tried to persuade her, but Jiang Luo already smiled and said, "Mother is so confused, Mr. Innocent If the world's great Confucianism is favored by him and falls under his name, wouldn't it be just around the corner that our country's government will become famous in the capital?"

Jiang Luo's words were on Gu's mother's sore spot, and the decline of Gu's family had become her heart disease.Ever since Gu Xiujing injured his leg, she had completely given up on letting him go into official career, now that she heard Jiang Luo say this, her already dead heart started to move again.

Seeing that Gu's mother was moved, Jiang Luo sneered a few times in her heart, but her face was more sincere: "I am not suitable for walking around when I am pregnant with the child, but it is also for the sake of the child that I made such a bad decision. As the so-called parents love their children, they will remember it deeply. I am honored to be worshiped under the name of Mr. Innocent, so in the future, won't the children also have an additional identity and an additional choice?"

Gu's mother didn't speak, because Jiang Luo's words made her unable to refute, and a good dinner was spent in a silent atmosphere.

Since Jiang Luo humiliated Shao Yao a few days ago, she has been silent for a long time.He no longer wore red clothes to show off around, and his attire was back to normal.

It's just that the eyes that look at Gu Xiujing occasionally still have some deep meaning.

Gu Xiujing was already able to walk on the ground, but because the wound was not fully healed, she still walked slowly.But even so, he still insists on practicing walking every day.

He knew that only when he became strong could he protect Jiang Luo and the child in her womb.He didn't want Jiang Luo to suffer any grievances.

Although Shaoyao still took care of Gu Xiujing every day, she was not at ease.
