Traveling through books to ancient times, I provoke the love of villains and powerful ministers

Gu Yu put a thick cloak on Qi Qingxi's body, took her hand and walked out of the gate of Shen's house to the house on the right.

The vermilion front door of the house showed mottled marks after years of exposure to wind and sun. Gu Yu took out an old copper key and stepped forward to open the door.

With a "creak", the door was pushed open, revealing the same mottled screen wall, passing through the screen wall and bypassing the corridor, a large and dilapidated courtyard appeared in front of us.

The yard is full of dead branches and weeds, and the thin snow that fell yesterday is still left in the place where the sun can't even be seen, which is very bleak.

This house is the place where Gu Yu was born and raised. For him, every brick and tile here is a childhood memory.

Gu Yu took her by the hand and walked to the front of the main house, pointing to the wooden frame under the window eaves, on which was engraved a small crooked blessing character.

He stretched out his finger and gently brushed the word with his fingertips, his eyes were full of tenderness, and he said softly: "This is when I was just learning to write with my father when I was young. I should be four years old at that time. My handwriting is ugly, my mother said that he actually cares about this with a young child, he is worse than a child."

This house is the place where Gu Yu was born, until his father died when he was five years old, Gu Yu was sent to his uncle's house, and since then, he has been raised by his uncle's house until his present age.

It was the first time Qi Qingxi heard Gu Yu mention his mother. Before that, she had never heard anyone mention Gu Yu's mother.

But she knows that everyone has things in their hearts that they don't want to say, just like her, there are things that are temporarily inconvenient to say to Gu Yu, so she will not force Gu Yu to tell what happened in his family whats the matter.

If what was asked was a very sad thing, it would not be worth it if it made him feel sad.

"But I can't remember many things in the past very clearly, and I can't even remember what my father looked like." Gu Yu chuckled.

Qi Qingxi squeezed Gu Yu's palm, wanting to comfort him.

Gu Yu took her hand and kissed it: "Finally, God has treated me well, so that I can have a home of my own again."

God not only treats Gu Yu kindly, but also treats her.

Qi Qingxi's life before she passed through the book can't be said to be very good. She was alone and had no worries. On the contrary, now, she has many family members. In the near future, she and Gu Yu will have a home that belongs to the two of them.

Qi Qingxi looked at the courtyard again. This is the main courtyard of the house. The carved beams and painted buildings on the verandahs can vaguely see the prosperity of the year.

It's just that she was a little curious. It stands to reason that the owner of such a big house is still there. Even if there is no one to live in, he will arrange special servants to clean and repair it. Impossible to please.

Qi Qingxi thought about it and asked, "Why didn't you find some cleaning servants?"

"Not long after my father left, all the servants here were dismissed. I originally thought that this house would remain empty forever, but I didn't expect that one day I would no longer have to be a loner." Gu Yu smiled lightly.

Some things are not that he is unwilling to tell Qi Qingxi, but that the timing is wrong. It may not be a good thing for Qi Qingxi if he says too much.

But fortunately, Qi Qingxi didn't care too much. This time instead, she took Gu Yu's hand and discussed with him about planting two crabapple trees in the courtyard.

After all, it is in the capital city, and the crabapple tree is more suitable for the occasion.

She remembered that Gu Yu said that there was a garden in the house, and she thought it would be more appropriate to plant osmanthus and peach trees in the garden.

The two of them wandered around the house again, and Qi Qingxi clearly arranged the purpose of each courtyard.

There was only a courtyard with a small pond next to Li's house, and Gu Yu told her that she had already made arrangements.

If Qi Qingxi remembers correctly, the other side of the courtyard wall is the courtyard where the three sisters live in the Li Mansion.

"I thought about leaving this place for Ah Nuan to live in before, and then I will build a swing for her in the courtyard."

Since he promised the little girl, he will not break his promise.

In fact, according to Bao Yu's original idea, he had arranged residences for Yunming and Yunhui brothers, but now they have their own uncle, so living with their uncle is naturally more suitable than living with their brother-in-law.

The two houses on the left and right are also close to each other, even if they want to meet each other, they are only a few steps away. Of course, the residence he arranged for the two brothers will always be kept, so there is no problem if they want to live here.

Qi Qingxi held Gu Yu's hand and kept shaking it: "Why are you so nice?"

So good that all her family members were arranged so well, she couldn't help but tiptoed to press a kiss on his cheek.

Gu Yu took advantage of the opportunity to pull her into his arms, and Qi Qingxi thought it would be better to talk to Gu Yu about his uncle at this moment.

"Yesterday I was called to the study by my uncle. He said that Marquis Shen was impeached by many ministers in the court, but he heard the emperor's tone that he planned to suppress this matter slowly. Even if he couldn't suppress it at that time, the emperor would think Find a way to restore Marquis Shen to his post."

The first half of the words was what her uncle said to her, and the second half was what she wanted to say to Gu Yu under the guise of her uncle.

Gu Yu didn't think about it, but thought that General Li wanted to convey the emperor's attitude to them through Qi Qingxi, so that they could prepare in advance.

General Li is now regarded as a close minister of the emperor, and he can get more news than them. Gu Yu also remembers this feeling in his heart.

"Actually, I think it's a good thing for Marquis Shen to retire. The emperor's princes are all grown up now. I'm afraid the situation in the future will be even more treacherous. It's better not to take this muddy water." Qi Qingxi said.

Gu Yu smiled and said: "Xi'er is right, I will discuss it with my uncle when I go back."

The two talked for a while, Gu Yu sent Qi Qingxi back to Li's Mansion next door, and went back to Ningguohou's Mansion himself.

He originally wanted to talk to his uncle Shen Xing, but after returning to the mansion, he heard that Master Hou had gone out of the city to meet friends.

Because of being impeached by the Metropolitan Procuratorate and all the ministers, Marquis Shen is now temporarily suspended from his job and is at home, so he takes advantage of his free time to wander around.

Marquis Shen was not at home, but Zheng Zheng was at home. Hearing that Gu Yu was back, he immediately ran over to look for him.

"How is it? Miss Qi received the post from the Zhao family?" Shen Zheng said.

He looked at Zhao Jingwan who wrote that invitation, and when he went to Zhao's mansion today, he heard that she had delivered it to General Shen's mansion, so Gu Yu should have seen that invitation too.

Gu Yu glanced at Shen Zheng. If he hadn't known these two people for many years and understood their temperament, he would have suspected that Zhao Jingwan invited Qi Qingxi to the house for another purpose.

Others don't know but he knows that Changxing Hou's mansion looks harmonious on the surface, but in fact the people in the mansion are fighting openly and secretly.

If it wasn't for Zhao Jingwan who was about to marry Shen Zheng and come to Ningguo Hou's Mansion, Gu Yu would not want Qi Qingxi to have too much contact with Changxing Hou's Mansion.
