Chapter 588: Throw away the shopkeeper

Before, the third wife, Cui Shi, was stunned by Xiao Qin'er, and her heart was vaguely angry.
In a blink of an eye, Xiao Qin'er was seriously ill and almost didn't wake up.
Cui's heart felt a little happy.
Is this the current newspaper?
She is a cautious person, was stunned for a while, so she converged a little when dealing with Cai Shi.
Still set the rules for Chua, but no longer discuss them.
No one can make mistakes.
Cai's is nothing, but the maid is happy.
"Count her interest."
Cai was expressionless, and she was not in a good mood for the third wife, Cui, to let her go.
She endured the Cui clan's grind, nothing more than waiting for an opportunity to make Cui clan a big somersault. Don't think that she can be humiliated by her being demoted to Baolin.
As a result, Cui refused to continue to challenge her, and the previous plan ended in a dead end.
Chua was very upset.
The plan could not be carried out. Didn't she bear the tribulations she had suffered before.
She gritted her teeth and berated the maid softly, "Stop talking."
The maid didn't know, so, "Baolin is upset?"
Cai snorted, "Is there anything to be happy about."
The maid was even more confused.
Cai was too lazy to explain, but just sent the maid away.
She is just a concubine now, with very limited resources. Planning things requires 120,000 patience.
The opportunity slips away and can only wait for the next opportunity to come.
...
Xiao Qin'er had taken care of her health, and she came to thank her.
I first arrived at the east courtyard and saw Gu Jiu.
"The last time I fell ill, I was very grateful thanks to the medicated diet provided by my sister-in-law."
"I can take care of my younger siblings, so I feel relieved."
Gu Jiu greeted Xiao Qin'er to sit down and drink tea.
"I haven't congratulated Sister-in-law for being pregnant." Xiao Qin'er subconsciously looked at Gu Jiu's abdomen.
Gu Jiu pursed her lips and smiled, "Brother Yu is three years old, and it's almost time to give birth to a younger brother or younger sister."
Xiao Qin'er was stunned, "Does the sister-in-law want a girl?"
Gu Jiu smiled and said, "The girl is an intimate little padded jacket, don't the younger siblings like the girl?"
Xiao Qin'er held her handkerchief to cover her lips and smiled awkwardly, "That can be. I like girls very much."
"I think so. Mu Jie'er is so cute and cute, there is no reason why the four younger siblings don't like it."
Liu Mu, Xiao Qin'er's daughter, has a lovely appearance and is very attractive.
Speaking of girls, Xiao Qin'er also showed some pride.
Her daughter is good-looking, and she looks a little stronger than Ouyang Fu's daughter.
The maidens in the palace also like Sister Mu very much. Every time she takes Sister Mu into the palace, she always gets a bunch of rewards.
She looked at Gu Jiu and asked curiously, "Sister-in-law hopes this child is a girl or a son?"
Gu Jiu smiled, and said, "I can do it with my daughters, I will do whatever it takes."
Xiao Qin'er pursed her lips and smiled, "Sister-in-law is really free and easy, much better than me and second sister-in-law."
At this time, the maid, Xiaocui, came in from outside, and when the Fourth Lady was there, she showed a look of hesitation but stopped.
Gu Jiu asked, "What's the matter?"
Xiao Cui bowed slightly, "Madam Qi, Deng Gonggong begs to see you."
Xiao Qin'er is very acquainted, "Since my sister-in-law is busy, then I will leave first. I have to take a trip to the second and third sisters."
Gu Jiu smiled and nodded, "Unfortunately today, it's a little busy. I won't keep the fourth siblings. Qingzhu, send the fourth wife out for me."
Qingzhu took the lead and sent Xiao Qin'er out of the east courtyard.
After that, Xiao Cui invited Deng Cunli to the small study room.
Gu Jiu motioned him to sit down and talk, "Come here today, what happened?"
Sitting on the round stool, Deng Cunli cleared his throat, and after some consideration, he said, "Don't hide it, Madam, the old slave saw someone a few days ago."
Gu Jiu was surprised.
When I saw a person, I had to report it specially. Could this person be special?
"Who is this person? Do I know?"
Deng Cunli nodded, "Madam must know each other, she should be a little familiar."
After saying this, Gu Jiu became curious, "Who is it? This person is so special. Let you take a trip and tell me specially."
Deng Cunli looked hesitant.
Gu Jiu felt clear and waved his hand to tell the maids to retreat.
When there were only two masters and servants left in the study, Gu Jiu said, "Can you tell me now? Who is this person?"
Deng Cunli suppressed his voice and whispered: "Return to Madam, the person the old slave saw was Chen Dachang and Duke Chen next to Emperor Xian."
Gu Jiu said.
"Is he still alive?"
"He lives and lives well."
Gu Jiu nodded, "Oh! The first emperor passed away and Chen Gonggong was gone. I thought he was... I didn't expect that he was still alive, and he was alive well. On second thoughts, this is normal. After all, he is the first emperor. There is always a way for the most useful person around him to escape and save his life. What happened when you met him?"
Deng Cunli still suppressed his voice and said cautiously: "Duke Chen has been living in a certain village in the suburbs before. He said that there have been some strange faces near Zhuangzi recently, which is probably not safe. So he planned to leave the capital and head to Jiangnan."
"He wants to go to Jiangnan, why is he looking for you?"
"He wants to find an identity in the Four Seas Commercial Bank, to cover up one or two. He also said that he can help the Four Seas Commercial Bank in return."
Gu Jiu frowned, "Do you believe what he said?"
Deng Cunli shook his head and denied, "The old slave naturally didn't believe what he said, so he didn't report to his wife at the first time, but sent someone to secretly follow up and investigate. The old slave has found the Zhuangzi where he is hiding, and indeed found that there are strange faces nearby."
Gu Jiu smiled when he heard the words, "You are here today to let this lady accept Grandpa Chen? Why?"
Deng Cunli sighed and confessed simply, "The rabbit, the fox, and the sorrow hurt him. The old slave can't bear to see his head in a different place. People like us, who left the palace and want to live, will take care of their mouths anyway. , I can’t get in the way of anyone. But there are still many people who don’t allow me to wait to live in the world.

Gu Jiu was surprised, "I didn't expect you to sympathize with him."
Deng Cunli gave a wry smile, "The old slave himself did not expect that one day he would speak for him."
Gu Jiu considered it for a while and said bluntly: "You should know, I don't believe him."
Deng Cunli was clear, "Whether you want to use him or not, Madam decides in one word, don't worry about the face of the old slave."
Gu Jiu thought for a while, "You just said that he wanted to leave the capital and go down to the south of the Yangtze River?"
"Exactly."
"He has nothing to say about the ability of this person. It's a lot of trouble in the palace, and when you get to the south of the Yangtze River, as long as you give him some convenience, he can also be like a fish in water."
Deng Cunli looked at Gu Jiu eagerly, "Does Madam plan to use him?"
Gu Jiu shook his head, "I have to think about this person again. I'm not in a hurry."
"The old slave understands."
Gu Jiu comforted him again, "You don't need to be pressured. Take care of the Qingmei marriage for me, this is the most important thing."
"Madam, don't worry, the old slave will do his best to manage the marriage for Qingmei."
After Deng Cunli left, Gu Jiu sent someone to invite Qianfu.
She started straight to the point and asked bluntly: "Chen Dachang is still alive, did Your Highness always know that?"
Qian Fu was stunned, "Is Grandpa Chen still alive?"
Gu Jiu snorted.
Pretending to be dumb in front of this lady, tender. It's better to just say nothing to tell.
Gu Jiu asked again: "I heard someone wandering outside the Zhuangzi where Chen Dachang was hiding. Do you know who it is? Is it possible that someone who could tolerate him alive two years ago will not be able to tolerate it two years later."
Qian Fu: "..."
I am innocent, I don't know anything. Everything was planned by His Highness. Madam, let's ask your highness.
Can he answer like that?
Can't!
Liu Zhao would take his skin off.
He thought about it and said, "Duke Chen is an old man in the palace, and he is also serving by the emperor. He has a special status and knows a lot of secrets. It is normal for someone to want his life. He can live to this day. There is a life-saving capital, which is daunting. But after a long time, the life-saving capital may not be able to continue to save lives."
Gu Jiu smiled swiftly, "Do you know that he wants to leave the capital to go to the south of the Yangtze River, and he also specifically asked Lao Deng to send me a message. He also said that he wanted to seek an identity in the four seas business, which could cover one or two."
"what!?"
Qian Fu showed just the right amount of surprise, "The old slave never expected that Grandpa Chen would go to his wife. This matter is of great importance. It is better to wait for your highness to come back and discuss with your wife."
Gu Jiu looked at Qian Fu with a smile but a smile, "If Grandpa Qian is willing to do things for this lady, this lady will be happy to hire you with a high salary and send you to Jiangnan to take charge of the overall situation in Jiangnan."
Qian Fu lowered his eyebrows and pleasing his eyes, "Thank you Madam for your kindness. The old slave is used to doing things by His Highness, and does not plan to change positions."
Gu Jiu lowered his head and smiled, "Isn't Mr. Qian curious? Chen Dachang has so many connections, but he finds his wife, and he is still Jiangnan. Very deliberate."
"Perhaps he investigated in advance and knew that Madam needs to send someone to Jiangnan, so he chose what he liked."
"What you said makes sense. But his behavior still makes people feel deliberate. He stares at this lady, why? What is this lady worthy of his mind?"
Qian Fu: "..."
You have to ask your Highness about this.
Everything was arranged by His Highness, the old slave really didn't know anything!
Huh huh!
Why is your Highness not coming back.
Chen Dachang, who was in Zhuangzi on the outskirts of Beijing, was very resentful: Our family never thought about leaving the capital. If it weren't for Liu Zhao's persecution, our family would never want to move.
What's more damning is that even if the persecution is allowed, it is embarrassing that he has to find a home for himself.
In his life, Chen Dachang, ever since he came to serve with Emperor Xian, he has never done any self-recommendation. It was because others took the initiative to find him. The ability of self-recommendation has long since become unfamiliar, and he has not been able to fool Deng Cunli the first time.
Tired!
Deng Cunli couldn't flick him, can he still flick Gu Jiu?
Don't blame him on this matter.
Blame Liu Zhao himself, who told him to be afraid of his wife.
