Chapter 372 The little lady should be more gentle than she is now...
The light was extremely dazzling, and several basins of ice were placed on the third floor of Teng Pavilion, but it was not necessarily cool at all.
Yi Lin came in from outside, his face was so hot that he was sweating. He stepped forward and took the herbal tea from Sheng Qinan's hand and drank it in several sips.
Sheng Qinan has always been disliked. He never thought that one day, he would be able to dislike Yi Lin.
"I drank!"
Yi Lin didn't take it seriously: "They are all big men, and I don't mind them at all."
Sheng Qinan: I mind!
Seeing that he was struggling, Yi Lin thrust the tea cup back into Sheng Qinan's hand without saying a word: "Okay, I'll give it back to you."
Sheng Qinan's breath was stagnant: "Don't you think it's dirty?"
Yi Lin murmured: "Where did he come from, being as pretentious as Gu Huaizhi?"
As he spoke, he began to sneer.
"Do you need me to remind you that you eat roasted rabbit with your hands, so you end up with grease stains on your hands? I was so generous last time and gave you a handkerchief to wipe off."
Sheng Qinan became angry when he mentioned this. He was silent for a few seconds and reminded: "You charged me three taels of silver for that veil."
He would recognize it if it was expensive fabric, but Yi Lin had used it for several years, and the corners were even frayed.
A piece of rag! Blackmail him!
Yi Lin didn't feel ashamed: "Three years ago, you accidentally stepped on the air and fell into the quagmire. Not only was you splashed with dirty water, but even your hair was not clean. Gu Huaizhi took a look and said,
I turned around and told Chang Su to drive away in the carriage. I saw you were pitiful and gave you a ride."
Sheng Qinan's memory is no worse than his: "That time, you asked me to pay fifty taels."
Yi Lin: "You soiled my carriage, shouldn't you pay for it?"
Sheng Qinan took a breath: "I finally escaped from Lin'an and saw Fanshan Temple in front of me."
Gu Huaizhi followed the instructions of Sheng's father Sheng Changling and came here specifically to take him back!
After all, he got so dirty that Gu Huaizhi didn't want to ride in a carriage with a sloppy person like him, so he left!
Sheng Qinan thought he was free, but he didn't have time to cheer.
However, the extremely enthusiastic Yi Lin pulled him into the car and even knocked him out!
Sheng Qinan's face darkened at a speed visible to the naked eye: "You brought me to the Sheng family, and you also took another fifty taels from my father!"
Yi Lin:......
Sheng Qinan: "Are you human?"
Yi Lin's momentum weakened and he rubbed his nose: "Don't mention old things."
"It's okay if you don't mention it, just return the money to me!"
Yi Lin could only change the subject bluntly: "In the past few days, Chi Zhang has been spending time with Liu Shan intentionally or unintentionally. I just got the news, so I invited you here. He even took his concubine to visit the Liu family many times. Zhou
Nan has become suspicious of Liu Shan these days."
After all, Chi Zhang offered far more temptations than he could offer Liu Shan.
Liu Shan did not want his daughter to enter the East Palace. What if Chi Zhangruo pushed his concubine out?
Chi Zhang's first wife died. As long as he wanted to, he could change the family tree for the concubine overnight and make him the legitimate son of the Chi family.
Liu Shan has been with Zhou Nan for many years. Zhou Nan knows his loyalty and Liu Weiran's position in Liu Shan's heart. Zhou Nan cannot afford to gamble.
"Therefore, when Liu Shan met Zhou Nan, Zhou Nan was not on guard."
"How can someone as smart as Liu Shan not know Zhou Nan's thoughts? If there is a rift, you must take this matter to heart. Maybe Liu Shan will keep it and use it."
Sheng Qinan lost half of his anger. He glanced sideways at Yi Lin: "You're looking for me just because of this?"
Yi Lin paused, quickly reacted, and immediately became happy: "You know?"
Sheng Qinan: "I have better information than you."
Sheng Qinan: "If my guess is correct, Zhao Chen will be looking for Liu Shan in the next few days."
Liu Shan has been assisting Zhou Nan for many years, and he is most aware of Zhou Nan's secret intentions. Once he is recruited, he will only become more powerful.
Liu Shan's weakness is obvious. People with weaknesses are the easiest to manipulate, and Zhao Chen has enough sincerity.
Yi Lin sighed: "It's a waste of time for me to look for you eagerly. But is he so brave that he just goes like this?"
Sheng Qinan turned the prayer beads on his wrist: "He is just a smiling tiger. When he is really ruthless, he is not half weaker than my brother."
I originally wanted to plan for a while, but Emperor Hui made the people angry and gave him the best opportunity. If we don't take advantage of it, how can we thank him for his kindness?
The time, place and people are favorable, and when they are broken, they will be broken.
Yi Lin was digesting the news. He didn't know how long it had passed before he asked again: "Tell me more, but is there anything else I don't know?"
Sheng Qinan: "I just came out of the Duke's Mansion."
"Then what?"
"My aunt is teaching my sister-in-law how to hold a baby."
Yi Lin: "It's really too early."
"Miss Qi is also learning from the side."
Yi Lin changed his previous words: "It's good to study, so you won't be in a hurry in the future."
Sheng Qinan: "I hug you and cry once. You, a newbie, are also very capable."
Yi Lin:......
————
It was getting late, and the afterglow in the sky cast a layer of golden light, which shone on the man's jade-like face, making his expression somewhat soft.
Gu Huaizhi returned to his house. Changfeng held the newborn baby boy of the Chi family in his arms. He walked slowly and unhurriedly. He did not forget to considerately twist the layer of cloth wrapped around the baby boy's body with gentle movements.
Patting his back.
Butler: "Sir."
Gu Huaizhi nodded.
Butler: "The Crown Princess ordered the old slave to find some wet nurses."
Gu Huai paused and relaxed his eyebrows: "She is quite considerate."
With that said, he walked towards Moyuan.
The housekeeper looked at the master and servant leaving, and couldn't help but sigh: "Look at Chang Feng, and look at Chang Su. Neither of them has married. The difference is really big."
Gu Huaizhi was never a kind person, and he never intended to take in these children. He had so many problems that he couldn't do it even temporarily.
When he approached Mo Yuan, he raised his eyelids, moved his thin lips slightly, and said lightly: "Send them to the general's mansion together."
Leave it to Mu Hansheng.
Changfeng: "Yes, I will do it now."
Only then did Gu Huaizhi enter the courtyard.
"What about her?"
"Inside the house."
When Gu Huaizhi heard this, he thought Ruan Zhen was taking a lunch break and was still awake. He pushed the door in without even thinking about it.
As soon as he entered the house, his slender fingers took off his outer robe and hung it on the wooden rafter, then walked around the screen towards the inner room.
His eyes turned and landed on the woman leaning against the window, half sitting on the imperial concubine's couch.
In the middle of the imperial concubine's bed lay a humming baby with its eyes closed.
A faint halo of light fell through the window pane on half of her peaceful face. She bent over and her slender jade fingers were grasped by a pair of small hands.
The little lady smiled and hummed a soft song soothingly.
Gu Huai's Adam's apple rolled.
In the back house of the Chi family, he witnessed the pain of a woman giving birth.
Undoubtedly, he was afraid. He didn't want Ruan Zhen to suffer this kind of pain, but now, he was thinking about it.
