After the divorce, the reborn emperor seduced me into his arms
Chapter 43 My cousin is a scheming man
Yang Xuan!
Yan Qing's eyes suddenly darkened.
On the other side of the bright and dazzling lantern stand, the woman entangled with Gu Huaizhou was none other than Yang Xuan, the concubine of the prime minister's family.
Yang Xuan bowed gracefully to Gu Huaizhou, and said, "Thank you so much, sir. If it weren't for you, I would have fallen down."
Gu Huaizhou responded gently: "It's just a small favor, don't worry about it, young lady."
The maidservant beside Yang Xuan said loudly, "Of all the people, it was the young master who saved our young lady. This shows that you and our young lady are destined to be together. It's dark and the roads are slippery at night. Why don't you take our young lady home?"
"Stop talking nonsense!"
Yang Xuan immediately reprimanded the maid, but looked at Gu Huaizhou shyly: "Sir, please don't blame me. The maid is ignorant. I will definitely teach her a lesson when I return home."
After a pause, he asked tentatively, "It is true that you saved Xuan'er. How about Xuan'er treat you to a visit at Fu Cui Residence?"
"I have something else to do, so I won't delay you, young lady."
Gu Huaizhou turned around and was about to leave.
Yang Xuan winked at the maid beside her, who immediately stepped forward to stop Gu Huaizhou and said with a stern face, "This young man is so rude! You took advantage of my young lady and now you want to run away? Do you know who my young lady is? She is the daughter of the Prime Minister..."
"Can the daughter of the Prime Minister tarnish someone's innocence?"
Yan Qing's cold voice rang out. She walked to Gu Huaizhou with a sullen face, looked at Yang Xuan and said, "Miss Yang, my cousin was kind enough to save you, but you let the maid tarnish his innocence. What is your intention?"
She had never understood before why the female slave that Madam Zhen gave to Gu Huaizhou became the concubine of the prime minister's mansion, but now she understood a little.
It was obvious that Yang Xuan was coming for Gu Huaizhou.
First, she deliberately fell on the street to lure Gu Huaizhou to help her, and then she naturally asked him to go to a teahouse to cultivate their relationship.
Unfortunately, Gu Huaizhou didn't fall for her trick.
So she asked her maid to spread the word in the streets that Gu Huaizhou had taken advantage of her, and then used the name of the Prime Minister's Mansion to put pressure on him. Gu Huaizhou, a powerless man living under someone else's roof, could only let her slaughter him!
I'm afraid she knew about it when Madam Zhen's men sent her to Gu Huaizhou's room that night...
Yang Xuan didn't expect to meet Yan Qing.
Her face changed, and she said aggrievedly, "Second Miss Yan has wronged me. The young master is my savior. How could I let someone slander his innocence? Xiao Tao, why don't you quickly apologize to Second Miss Yan!"
The maid named Xiao Tao immediately said to Yan Qing: "I'm sorry, Miss Yan, it's all because of this servant's ignorance and wrong words. If you want to blame someone, blame this servant. Please don't wrongly accuse our young lady. Our young lady just wants to thank Mr. Gu for saving her life. After all, saving a life should be...ah!"
Before Xiao Tao could finish her words, Yan Qing pushed her hard.
She screamed and was about to collapse.
Because of the loud shouting just now, the area was already crowded with people.
So when Xiao Tao fell, someone happened to help her up, and she subconsciously said thank you: "Thank you! Thank you..."
When I looked up, I was suddenly stuck.
Yan Qing said coldly, "It was that young man who saved you just now. Do you also want to pledge your love to him?"
Xiao Tao looked at the other person's pockmarked face and stepped back in horror.
The man stepped forward and grabbed Xiao Tao, then said to the woman beside him in a silly manner: "Mom, I have a wife. This is my wife..."
"Miss, save me——"
Xiaotao was so scared that her legs went weak.
Yang Xuan took a deep breath and walked in front of Yan Qing.
Although she was born in the Prime Minister's Mansion and Yan Qing was just the daughter of a Shangshu, the General's Mansion behind Yan Qing was something even the Prime Minister's Mansion was wary of.
So Yang Xuan politely bowed to Yan Qing and pleaded, "Second Miss Yan, I was rude today. I hope you will be magnanimous and release Xiao Tao..."
Yan Qing sneered, "You should apologize to Cousin Gu!"
Did she think that Gu Huaizhou could be bullied because he had no power? She wanted to let Yang Xuan know that Gu Huaizhou had someone backing him up, and it wasn't just her doing it to get away with it!
Yang Xuan bit her lip, and finally looked at Gu Huaizhou with tears in her eyes: "Mr. Gu, I'm sorry, I was rude..."
Gu Huaizhou didn't even look at her.
He looked at Yan Qing with deep eyes. Qingqing was protecting him...
"Cousin, let's go."
The man walked up to Yan Qing, his expression as gentle as ever.
Lai Fu, who was hiding in the crowd, just shook his head. His cousin was really scheming...
That Miss Yang had been following the young master for a long time, and the young master knew it very well. He didn't bump into her earlier or later, but when he met the second young lady, he was suddenly bumped into by her. Tsk tsk tsk...
The second young lady is really pitiful.
I just got rid of that unfaithful Lu Qiaonan, and now I meet this scheming cousin. Oh~ how pitiful...
Seeing that Yang Xuan apologized, Yan Qing didn't bother to argue any further. He turned around and took Gu Huaizhou away.
Yang Xuan looked at the backs of the two men, her face terribly gloomy.
She is the daughter of a concubine in the prime minister's family. Although she appears to be glamorous and beautiful, she is often oppressed by her mother behind the scenes. Her concubine is useless and cannot find a good home for her, so she can only plan a future for herself.
There are many talented men in Kyoto, but there are only a few who might be attracted to her and not be stopped by her stepmother. The men her stepmother finds for her are either playboys or widowers.
She searched everywhere and found that Gu Huaizhou was the most suitable one.
Gu Huaizhou is a cousin of the Shangshu Mansion. He has no power, low status, and is just a scholar. His stepmother will definitely not stop him.
Yang Xuan was attracted by the fact that he was rootless and helpless.
She had asked around and found out that Gu Huaizhou was alone in Kyoto. If she married him, she wouldn't have to take care of her parents-in-law, nor would she have to flatter her sister-in-law.
Although he is only a scholar now, Yang Xuan has read his poems. Although they are simple and unsophisticated, they are full of beauty. He will surely achieve great success in the near future.
What's more, Gu Huaizhou is familiar with Prince Jing...
That day, Yang Xuan accidentally heard that Madam Zhen of the Yan Mansion was going to frame Gu Huaizhou. She felt that her chance had come, so she bribed the servants of the Yan Mansion and replaced the female slave with herself.
As long as Gu Huaizhou and he were married, he would have to marry her, and his stepmother had to agree to the marriage because of the reputation of the prime minister's mansion.
It’s simply the best of both worlds.
But Yang Xuan didn't know why, she fell asleep while waiting for Gu Huaizhou's medicine to take effect!
When she woke up again, she was already at the side door of the prime minister's residence. Her clothes were intact and her uterine bleeding was still there, proving that Gu Huaizhou did not touch her that night.
But why?
She didn't know how she got back to the Prime Minister's Mansion, nor did she know what happened that night?
So Yang Xuan planned to find an opportunity to test Gu Huaizhou.
She had people watch in front of Yan's house for a few days, and finally saw Gu Huaizhou going out alone, so she immediately followed him.
I finally seized the opportunity, but suddenly Yan Er showed up?
Yang Xuan twisted the handkerchief in her hand and gritted her teeth in anger: "Yan Er, just wait for me!"
