"Husband, you are back!"

When Luo Jiaojiao saw Lin Zhixue coming in, her face was full of joy and she considerately took off his coat for him.

"Ah."

Lin Zhixue hummed gently, took the teacup handed to him by Luo Jiaojiao and took a sip.

Seeing that his father's role was not very good, Lin Qingjin tactfully withdrew and left.

Lin Zhixue has been worried today about the emperor's marriage between Yongchang Hou and Gu Yingxue.

When he first heard it, he thought it was someone with the same name and surname, so he sent someone to make some inquiries. He had already confirmed that the Gu Yingxue that the emperor had arranged for him to marry was the same Gu Yingxue that he had divorced!

This incident made him feel that something must have gone wrong!

He clearly remembered that Gu Yingxue's charming face had been ruined beyond recognition and it was impossible to heal it.

He really didn't know what Marquis Yongchang liked about Gu Yingxue. Was it her figure?

Lin Zhixue couldn't help but swallow his saliva. He had been working hard to climb up the career ladder over the years and had not paid much attention to matters between men and women.

But now, when he thought of Gu Yingxue's body that once made him crazy, he felt his blood boiling for some reason!

To be honest, he still liked Gu Yingxue more in terms of love, but every time he wanted to send someone to pick her up to the capital, he would think of her bloody face, and finally he had to give up.

Now he suddenly felt a little regretful. At worst, he could just let her wear a veil from now on, so that Xie Tingzhou wouldn't get away with it!

Lin Zhixue regretted that he had not thought of asking her to come to the capital wearing a veil to serve him earlier!

But Lin Zhixue doesn’t have the energy to think about these things anymore, he has more difficult things to deal with!

He must plan carefully how to ease the relationship with Xie Tingzhou.

She's just a woman. Even if she has a good figure, her face is ruined. It's not worth his effort. Let Xie Tingzhou just let her get away with it!

In the past two days in the court, Xie Tingzhou embarrassed him everywhere, and he really didn't want to be an enemy of Xie Tingzhou.

After all, the Xie family has deep roots and complicated connections in the capital. If he were to go against Xie Tingzhou, it would be much more difficult for him to enter the cabinet.

Xie Tingzhou was definitely the person he least wanted to make an enemy of.

"Why are you worrying about this, my husband?"

Luo Jiaojiao fell into Lin Zhixue's arms like a little bird, and asked Lin Zhixue with a worried look on her face, but in her heart she secretly hated him for knowing about Gu Yingxue's affairs and was upset!

After so many years, he still can't let her go!

Luo Jiaojiao was filled with hatred. Why was Gu Yingxue so lingering around? Could it be that she came to the capital because she still had Lin Zhixue in her heart?

No! Lin Zhixue belongs to her, Luo Jiaojiao!

"It's just some trivial matters in the court."

Lin Zhixue replied absentmindedly. The soft and delicate body was so fragrant that he couldn't help but feel distracted and his hands couldn't help but become restless.

Luo Jiaojiao couldn't help but moan. The charming sound made Lin Zhixue's hands move more vigorously. He turned over and pressed Luo Jiaojiao under him.

When the maids heard the noise coming from the inner room, they all blushed and ran away. It was still daytime, and the master and the mistress were too...

Gujia Village is at its busiest near dusk. The working men begin to prepare to go home for dinner, and the women who go up the mountain to pick wild vegetables also return home in groups of three or four.

Just as they were chatting and laughing along the way, rejoicing in their harvest of the day, the sound of horse hooves was heard, attracting the attention of the villagers!

"Oh my god! Look at that carriage! Only a very wealthy family can afford such a carriage!"

A woman covered in puddle and with a sad face pointed at the carriage that Jiang Debao was riding in and shouted in shock!

When the villagers heard her shout, they looked in the direction opposite to her finger, and what they saw was shocking!

Everyone started talking at once.

"This must be the carriage of a high-ranking official!"

"What are they doing in our Gujia Village? We have never heard of any family in the Gu family who knows a noble person!"

"Yes!"

Just as everyone was talking, the carriage had already approached, and Jiang Debao sent a young eunuch down to ask for directions.

The young eunuch got off the carriage and pointed at Gu Dechang who was leading his sons home and said arrogantly:

"You! You! Come here and answer!"

When Gu Dechang heard the voice of the young eunuch, he had some vague guesses in his mind, but after all, he had never seen a eunuch and did not dare to draw any conclusions.

But no matter what, this person in front of him was not someone he could afford to offend. Gu Dechang quickly bent over and trotted to the young eunuch:

"Sir, what do you want me to do for you?"

"Let me ask you, where does Gu Siming live?"

Although the young eunuch did not have a good face towards Gu Dechang, his attitude became respectful and his tone became much softer when he talked about Gu Xiucai.

"Mr. Gu's home is at the foot of the mountain not far from the village entrance. I will take you there right away!"

When Gu Dechang heard the young eunuch say Gu Siming's name, he was startled at first, but the carriage following behind was filled with gift boxes of all sizes, and led the way for the young eunuch with a smile on its face.

"Lead the way!"

The young eunuch snorted and turned back to the carriage.

In the carriage, Jiang Debao was rubbing his sore buttocks from the bumps and muttering quietly that this road was really unbearable to drive on and it was almost killing him!

As soon as the young eunuch got on the carriage, he changed his expression and said to Jiang Debao in a flattering manner:

"Father, I'm going to massage your legs and shoulders!"

"Hurry up and finish this task and return to the palace. My old bones can't stay in this place for a moment!"

Jiang Debao let the young eunuch rub his legs and beat his shoulders, frowning and muttering unhappily.

The words of the young eunuch outside the carriage shocked everyone in Gujia Village and they didn't know what to say. After a long while, someone murmured to himself:

"This scholar Gu actually knows people in the palace!"

"Do the people in the palace have a lot of silver?"

"It's not just silver! There's gold too!"

“Humph, maybe Gu Siming has offended a noble in the palace, and they are here to chop off his head!”

A harsh voice sounded, and the person who spoke was Xia Chunhua.

She had suffered a lot at the hands of the Gu Yubai brothers over the years, and she couldn't stand the good things that the Gu Siming family was doing, so she couldn't help but curse them viciously!

"I don't think so! Didn't you see that he brought such a big cart of gifts? Who would come here to behead someone and bring gifts?"

A middle-aged woman looked at Xia Chunhua with disdain.

"Hurry, hurry, hurry! Let's go and see what they want from Gu Xiucai!"

The villagers couldn't help but quicken their pace, carrying their hoes and walking quickly towards Gu's house!

So a large group of people followed the carriage to the Gu family!

When they arrived at the door of Gu's house, Jiang Debao got off the carriage and even tidied up his clothes.

He stopped Gu Dechang from knocking on the door and instead knocked on the door of Gu's house with a smile on his face.

The fact that he was able to climb to the position of the emperor's confidant was certainly not due to luck, but also due to some real ability.

He is particularly good at dealing with human relationships, and even if it is the Gu family, with whom he may have very little dealings in the future, he will try his best to leave a good impression!

What if you meet him/her someday? It’s always good to make friends with others!

The villagers of Gujia Village who followed over stared in amazement at the young eunuch who had been so arrogant just a moment ago, now following behind an older eunuch with his head lowered.

If I hadn't seen his arrogance just now, I would have thought that this little eunuch was someone who was easy to get along with!

"Who?!"

Mrs. Yang was in a bad mood today. Her little Yaoyao had been gone for several days and had not come back!

Since the child was born, he has never left her side for such a long time. Yang was thinking a lot and always felt empty in her heart!

"Excuse me, is this Mr. Gu's home?"

Jiang Debao looked at the angry Yang, but he was not angry. Instead, he looked at Yang with a smile on his face. His smile was particularly sincere and kind.

Yang felt a little embarrassed and secretly regretted her rudeness just now!

"Yes... yes... but my father-in-law is not at home now. He will be back in a while."

Yang looked at the sky and replied hesitantly.

"It's okay, it's okay, can you let us wait in the yard for a while?"
