The first poisonous scholar in Daxia, starting from the abdication of the prime minister

"What about the two children?"

Gu Jingzhi was not worried about Gu Yunzhi herself. After all, she was skilled in martial arts. After several months of training, her martial arts skills were even better than before.

If Jin Lehuang wanted to use force to coerce, it would be of no use at all.

But the two children of my eldest sister...

Upon hearing this, Qu Feiyan immediately said, "Don't worry, sir. Jin Lehuang doesn't know about the two children. They are currently being raised in the Second Madam's courtyard."

The second wife is Gu Jingzhi’s second sister-in-law.

But he didn't expect that Gu Yunzhi and Gu Huanzhi had been so cautious before. He was really worrying too much!

He thought for a moment and said, "Then you and Big Sister should be more careful in the future. You must not let the other party notice. Also... you can arrange more people to monitor the area around the government office. If you find anyone behaving unusually, just keep an eye on them. There's no need to alert the enemy!"

Gu Jingzhi believed that as long as Jin Lehuang did not give up, the truth would be revealed sooner or later!

After hearing this, Qu Feiyan nodded and said, "Since you are confident, I will return first! If there is any news in the future, I will inform you in time!"

"and many more!"

Gu Jingzhi suddenly thought of something and said, "We need to keep a close eye on the Crown Prince's family and the Qiao family as well!"

When Qu Feiyan heard this, her expression changed slightly. She said, "Don't worry, sir. I'll make arrangements when I get back!"

"it is good!"

Gu Jingzhi waved his wrist to signal Qu Feiyan to leave.

……

After Qu Feiyan left, Gu Jingzhi returned to his own courtyard, but the matter of Jin Lehuang kept lingering in his mind.

Jin Lehuang's visit to Ningzhou again indicated that something big was going to happen. Although he now roughly knew Jin Lehuang's purpose, he had no idea what the other party would do.

Now Gu Jingzhi is in the open, Jin Lehuang is in the dark, and what's worse is that the prince's family is also in Ningzhou.

Gu Jingzhi believed that he could not understand the prince as well as Jin Lehuang.

This understanding is not about character, but some unknown things. If Jin Lehuang takes advantage of these, is it possible?

Even though the crown prince has been deposed, he still has great value.

Jin Lehuang couldn't find any breakthrough with Gu Jingzhi, but it was different with the prince. Now that he had lost his status as the prince, although he was taken care of by Gu Jingzhi in Ningzhou, there would be no problem with his safety.

But he couldn't do it perfectly.

As for Fufeng County...

After much thought, Gu Jingzhi still felt that he should return to the capital as soon as possible!

Fortunately, Chen Yu is now in Ningzhou because of her pregnancy, so if Gu Jingzhi goes back at this time, it will not arouse suspicion.

……

As the saying goes, you have to do your best to put on a good show. After Gu Jingzhi returned to the provincial capital, he went straight to the Lin family. He was out all day long, and the old lady of the Lin family was worried about Chen Yu, so she took him to the Lin family.

If this happened in this era, there would naturally be some gossip, but as a modern person, Gu Jingzhi doesn't care about it at all.

When Mrs. Lin learned that Gu Jingzhi agreed, she was naturally very happy. After all, this was the continuation of the bloodline of their only daughter, Lin Wan.

When the Lin family learned that Chen Yu was pregnant, they were extremely happy and they held the baby in their hands and carefully protected her!

When the couple met, they had a nice conversation. After dinner at the Lin family, Gu Jingzhi took his wife away. After sending her back home, Gu Jingzhi turned around and walked out.

In order to protect the prince, Gu Jingzhi deliberately arranged the prince's family and the Qiao family to live next door, so that it would be more convenient if anything happened.

When Gu Jingzhi arrived at the prince's house, his family had just finished dinner!

Seeing Gu Jingzhi coming, the prince was slightly surprised, but Qiao Shuwan looked indifferent, as if she had completely forgotten what happened a few months ago.

As for the former prince's concubine, Gu Jingzhi only knew that her surname was Yin, but not the Yin from the aristocratic family. As for anything else, he didn't know!

When Yin saw Gu Jingzhi coming, she just silently saluted the prince and then turned back to the inner courtyard!

The prince's children greeted Gu Jingzhi obediently.

Looking at the two little kids and a bean sprout, Gu Jingzhi then gave them some small toys he brought back from Fufeng County. The three children took them and played happily.

Seeing this, the prince smiled and said, "Jingzhi, you are thoughtful. Every time you come back from outside, you bring them some small things."

"hehe!"

Gu Jingzhi smiled and said, "At their age now, they can't keep reading and writing all the time. They still need to have the fun of childhood!"

Zhou Quan, the eldest son of the prince's family, is only ten years old and looks like a little adult. However, just by looking at his name, you can tell the expectations of his elders.

The second son, Zhou Ning, is five years old. As his name suggests, he is a well-behaved and quiet child!

The eldest and second oldest are both born to Qiao Shuwan.

As for my daughter Zhou Yu, she was born to a concubine and is eight years old this year!

Gu Jingzhi chatted with the prince and his wife for a while. The prince was as talkative and cheerful as ever, while Qiao Shuwan seemed to have lost some of her previous playfulness and became more dignified and steady.

Gu Jingzhi didn't think much about it. Seeing that the small talk was almost over, the prince knew that Gu Jingzhi must have come to visit for other reasons. He said to his eldest son, "Quan'er, your father has something to say to your teacher. You should take your younger brothers and sisters back to the house to play first!"

Zhou Quan nodded immediately after hearing this, then saluted Gu Jingzhi solemnly and said, "Teacher, I'm leaving now!"

"Go!"

Gu Jingzhi smiled slightly, watching the children leave. Then the smile faded, his expression became serious, and he said, "Your Highness, I have received news that Jin Lehuang has arrived in Ningzhou!"

"what?"

The couple was shocked when they heard this. Qiao Shuwan even asked first, "Where is she? Have you found out where she is?"

Qiao Shuwan was no longer as gentle as before towards Jin Lehuang, and her eyes became extremely sharp!

The prince's family and the Qiao family were both implicated by this woman. If it weren't for the guarantee of the court officials, Emperor Xia would not have intended to execute his son. Even if the prince's family was not sentenced to death, I am afraid they would be in a worse situation than they are now!

Even a hundred years after Emperor Xia, it was unknown whether their family would still be alive.

The Crown Prince and his wife looked at Gu Jingzhi, who shook his head and said, "Ningzhou has changed so much, and since I'm in charge of Ningzhou, she must be wary and hasn't revealed her whereabouts yet!"

"She exposed herself this time probably just to test the waters. I have already arranged everything else. I came here today just to inform Your Highness that you must be extremely careful in the coming time!"

"Also, Your Highness, please be careful. Don't pay too much attention to anything just because she's here. You must act as if nothing happened!"

"Now all we have to do is wait for her to show up!"

"This matter..."

The prince frowned slightly and said, "Her conspiracy in the capital has been exposed. Jingzhi, you are a careful person. Now that she knows you are here, I am afraid she won't reveal her true intentions so easily, right?"

"That's right! So, during this period of time, we just need to wait and see what happens!"

Gu Jingzhi said, "She couldn't have known about our coming to Ningzhou. She came anyway, which means she wants something in Ningzhou. As long as she has something in mind, it will be exposed sooner or later. Your Highness just needs to wait and see!"

"it is good……"
