Section 132 Encounter

  Since July, Nanchang Wangfu sent a full house of family members to Nanchang Wang, Gu Jin thought that Luzhou should make some gestures.

  The King of Louyang is going to get married.

  Although the betrothal gifts all come from the Ministry of Rites in the palace, Zhu Zhongjun's daily necessities and money should be sent over.

  So, at the end of October, it was indeed sent over.

  The little servants at the second gate came in to tell Xiaoyu, and Xiaoyu ran into the inner courtyard to tell Gu Zhenzhi: The general manager of the Wangfu in Luzhou has arrived.

  Zhu Zhongjun pulled Gu Jinzhi's hand and said, "Let's go take a look?"

  Outside it may be snowless, but in the north it is bitterly cold, and one's bones can be blown apart.

  Listening to the fierce wind outside the window, Gu Jin smiled and said: "You go yourself. If I went, those people wouldn't know what to call me."

  Zhu Zhongjun held her hand and whispered, "I'm a fool! You're blocking my way ahead. In the future, if someone asks, it's also you who reminded me..."

  It's also this way.

  Moreover, people from Luzhou, he doesn't know any of them, always need someone to cover up for him.

  Gu Jinzhi saw that she couldn't shirk it off any longer, so she called over her maid to help her change clothes.

  She put on a large red feather cloak, wore a grey mouse fur hat, held a small hand warmer, changed into a pair of embroidered shoes, and then followed Zhu Zhongjun out the door to get in the carriage. They drove around the south wall of the Gu residence and soon arrived at the entrance of the Luoyang Wang's villa.

  The horse carriage went straight to the Weeping Flower Gate.

  The manager of the other mansion came out to greet him, first paying his respects, and then said: "More than 50 people have arrived from Lu Zhou, bringing over 30 carts of goods. The Commander-in-Chief has asked me to apologize, saying that he heard the Duke of Ning is ill, so he will return home first and then come back to serve. The rest of the people are all in the main hall's flower pavilion."

  Zhu Zhongjun didn't answer, he just pulled gently on Gu Jin's hand.

  Gu Jinzhi just smiled and said: "I know."

  The housekeeper retreated to one side.

  The old ladies sent over some gentle mules and a small oil cart.

  Gu Jinzhi got on the carriage with Zhu Zhongjun.

  He said to Gu Jin: "……I can be more foolish, the emperor only has a liking for it. If I show any doubt, the emperor will suspect again. Wait until you see the people from Luzhou later. I don't recognize anyone, I won't speak, you ask one by one who is who, and I'll remember in private."

  Gu Jing looked at him for a moment.

  Zhu Zhongjun was looked at by her with a bewildered expression.

  Gu Jinzhi smiled and said: "You used to take advantage of me like that in the past. I hated you to death back then. Now, it doesn't matter."

  Zhu Zhongjun's face suddenly turned black.

  "Is this what you call taking advantage of me?" he retorted to Gu Jinzhi, "I'm just asking for your help, can that be considered taking advantage of you?"

  Gu Jin smiled slightly.

  She doesn't care about it anymore.

  "If it were in the past, you would only say 'Wait for the people from Luozhou to come, go ask them questions, I'll listen on the side. Ask clearly.' Gu Jinzhi smiled and said, 'Do you remember? You rarely explained why to me in the past, always giving orders like this. Tell me that you're afraid of the Emperor's suspicion, which wasn't the case before.'"

  The carriage suddenly fell silent.

  Zhu Zhongjun's face fell slightly.

  Searching for memories of early years, it seems like I treated her as a naive little kid. Many thoughts were too lazy to explain, first thinking she wouldn't understand, secondly feeling no need to.

  It's normal for her to help out sometimes.

  After becoming husband and wife, shouldn't they support each other?

  Zhu Zhongjun only looked for her because she was his confidante, the one person he didn't guard against, and thus he would be willing to accept her help.

  Ke Gu Jing actually took all of this as his exploitation of her.

  He was speechless for a moment.

  "When I was young, I was sensitive and suspicious. As I grew older, I became even more sensitive and suspicious." Gu Jing smiled, "Now that I think about it, some of the things you did, I no longer mind. If I still minded every single one of them, I would have quietly poisoned you to death without anyone knowing!"

  Zhu Zhongjun felt a chill behind his back.

  He grasped her hand tightly and said in a low voice: "Poisonous woman!"

  Gu Jin smiled.

  Zhu Zhongjun's hand clenched even tighter.

  Doesn't matter to some people?

  Is there anything else you're concerned about?

  Is there anything else you'd like to know?

  Is it about Director Chen's case? Or is it about the Rongnan car accident case?

  He indeed owed a debt of gratitude to Gu Jin's mother and son, especially in those two matters.

  He admitted that he had spent less time with them, cared about them less and communicated with them less.

  Chen Zong's mistake almost led to Gu Jinzhi's misfortune, but it wasn't intentional. At the time, he was just lucky and thought everything was under his control, but almost got Gu Jinzhi into trouble.

  She then slapped him and accused him of selling out his wife for fame.

  That was the beginning of their split.

  And her son Yongnan's car accident...

  Zhu Zhongjun did not dare to think about it.

  Just think of those things in past life, a mess.

  He's a bold and ambitious man who calculated that no one is more ruthless than him, often resorting to dangerous tactics, yet several times putting his wife and children in danger.

  "Gu Jinzhi, I want to be a fool for the rest of my life!" He suddenly hugged Gu Jinzhi tightly, wrinkling all his clothes.

  Being a fool, having no desires or demands, being a wealthy and leisurely person, he doesn't need to take advantage of anyone.

  Gu Jing gently patted his back and said, "Good boy."

  Like coaxing a child.

  Zhu Zhongjun's heart skipped a beat.

  He likes this phrase: well-behaved, somewhat like his attitude towards Gu Jinzhi in his previous life.

  The little oil car arrived at the main hall.

  The hall was packed with people, but it was eerily silent, everyone standing solemnly.

  Seeing Zhu Zhongjun bring in a girl, everyone's expression didn't change, then they all knelt down and paid their respects to him.

  Zhu Zhongjun smiled and leaned against Gu Jin's body.

  Gu Jinzhi then reminded him in a voice that everyone could hear: "Let them get up."

  "Get up." Zhu Zhongjun said.

  Everyone stood up one after another.

  Gu Jinzhi then pulled Zhu Zhongjun and went up to the upper seat.

  She herself sat down, sitting in the second seat beside him.

  Zhu Zhongjun and Gu Jinzhi's eyes swept across the crowded room.

  Then, Gu Jinzhi said to Zhu Zhongjun: "Let them all sit down."

  "Sit down." Zhu Zhongjun's voice was crisp.

  Everyone then divided into two sides and sat down one by one.

  Unable to sit still, he stood at the back.

  About ten people sat down. Eight of them were military officers, probably small leaders of the guard army in Luzhou Wangfu.

  There was also a man in his fifties wearing a green robe, tall and slender, with kind eyebrows and eyes; another was a woman wearing a white-based green plum blossom cloak.

  Gu Jinzhi and Zhu Zhongjun's eyes fell on her face. They only felt that the room was filled with a burst of radiant light.

  The woman lowered her head, combed a high bun, and wore a long, thin clove-shaped pearl pendant. The pendant swayed with a clear light, setting off the flawless white jade of her face.

  Her profile is very delicate.

  Must be Qian Lan?

  Gu Jin thought of what King Liu Yang said about Xiang's mouth...

  "I don't know you very well either." Gu Jinzhi smiled and said, "The king's throat is uncomfortable today, let me help ask questions. Who will answer?"

  Everyone looked at each other in confusion, unaware of who Gu Jing was.

  She was slender and tall, dressed simply and neatly, with a tender face. At first, they thought she was just a maid of the King of Luoyang.

  Now seeing such questions, it must be the Empress Dowager without a doubt.

  They went up to the capital to present gifts for the grand wedding of the King of Luoyang.

  That fifty-year-old old man stepped forward, knelt down and said: "My queen, I wish you a long life. In response to your words, I am Tao Ren, serving in the Wang Mansion of Lu State, willing to serve my queen."

  "Please rise," said Gu Jin, "My surname is Gu. The Empress Dowager ordered me to take good care of the Prince, and all matters concerning the Prince are under my responsibility, so please don't blame me for overstepping."

  Don't you all understand yet?

  Precious Consort surnamed Gu, seventh Miss of the Gu family, with exceptional medical skills. In Jiangnan, over a hundred shrines were built in her honor, and Luozhou had long been abuzz with the news.

  Those common people even said that she was the gospel and could bring blessings to the region. Everyone looked forward to the king's grand wedding, bringing this living Bodhisattva back to Lu Zhou.

  But she has not married yet.

  She also claims her surname is Gu.

  Tao Ren had no choice but to take away the words of his mother and called out "Miss Gu" before he dared to stand up and respond.

  Gu Jin asked them one by one who they were.

  Everyone came forward one by one and paid their respects to Gu Jinzhi.

  Qian Lan finally.

  She stepped forward, half-kneeling: "I am Qian Lan, a personal attendant of the king in Luozhou Wangfu... I heard that the king's grand wedding is approaching. I came to Beijing and will serve as an attendant to the queen."

  Gu Jinzhi made her get up and lifted her up for a look.

  Indeed, she was extremely delicate and lovely, on par with Gu Jinzhi's fifth elder sister.

  Zhu Zhongjun understood it clearly.

  In ancient times, didn't they refer to personal attendants as maids or concubines?

  After a glance, Zhu Zhongjun had already memorized everyone present.

  "...Commander, upon hearing that the Duke of Ning was seriously ill, he immediately returned to the Hou Mansion in Beijing to visit him and beg for forgiveness from the King. After visiting the Duke of Ning, he rushed over to confess his crime." Tao Ren continued.

  Zhǐ huī shǐ dà ren, jiù shì Níng Xí, Níng è de zhǎng zǐ.

  Translation:

  Commander Ning Xi is the eldest son of Ning Xi and Ning E.

  Zhu Zhongjun's reaction was also lukewarm.

  Tao Ren was slightly shocked in his heart.

  When in Lu state, the king couldn't be apart from Qianlan for a moment, taking her wherever he went. How come after arriving in the capital and having Gu gongzhu, he abandoned Qianlan to one side?

  "...Don't worry, just rest for now. When the time comes, His Highness will summon you." Gu Jinzhi smiled and called over the manager of the other pavilion, saying, "Take care of everything."

  The overall pipeline is.

  Gu Jinzhi got up and wanted to leave.

  Zhu Zhongjun hastily walked over, grabbed her hand and held it tightly.

  Tao Ren and the others watched as they left one after another, feeling shocked in their hearts.

  Where is your highness going?

  The manager of the other mansion explained: "Nowadays, Wang Ye lives in the Gu's house and plays with the princess every day. This is allowed by the empress dowager, who says that the princess takes care of Wang Ye more than anyone else, so the empress dowager can rest assured."

  Everyone was astonished.

  Qianlan stood quietly, letting the wind blow on her face.

  Then she smiled suddenly with pursed lips.

  Ning Xi returned home, visited his father, and then came over to the Wang Fu side.

  At that time, Zhu Zhongjun had returned to the Gu residence.

  He settled down first.

  Then, a little maid from the second door came looking for her and said that Qianlan had something to instruct him with, asking him to go over once.

  Ning Xi stepped forward and spoke up.

  Qian Lan pulled on his hand, her voice full of joy: "The prince doesn't remember me! You asked him for me, he must be willing..."

  Her hand was soft and grasped Ning Xi's palm.

  Ning Xi bit her lip.
