Gu Huaiyang, who has always complained about his untimely birth, is now ecstatic. As long as he has the opportunity, he will have more opportunities to show his talent if he meets high-ranking officials.Besides, Master Jijiu of the Guozijian values ​​talented young people the most.If I can get into the eyes of the Guozijian Jijiu, wouldn't it be a sparrow turning into a phoenix?

Even Gu Huaizhe can't compare to himself!

How can he, a person who has been living outside since he was a child, compare to a pampered son like himself?If he hadn't occupied a concubine, he wouldn't have been able to take the position of son at all.

Xia Li doesn't care much about this, she thinks Gu Huaiyang is a clown, and Mu Yao doesn't like him at all, but he still has high hearts.

Seeing Gu Huaizhe with the same indifferent expression, Xia Li admired him in her heart. This is the real talent, who is neither happy with things nor sad with himself.

Haitang whispered in her ear: "Drunkards don't care about drinking."

Mu Yao walked in front, Xia Li said to Gu Huaizhe, "Ah Zhe, look how active he is."

Gu Huaizhe's expression was light: "The Duke's Mansion only needs to maintain stability, and don't dare to think about other things."

Just one sentence, Xia Li understood.Although working hard in the officialdom seems to be prosperous and prosperous, it is not suitable to hide your strength and bide your time.It's better to recharge your energy and store up your energy at the moment of seizing the throne, and then go to the officialdom and make a blockbuster.

"It's so good, it's rare for you to see clearly." Xia Li said.

Gu Huaizhe looked sideways, he knew his wife was courageous, but he didn't expect her to be so cunning.

Seeing the small to know the big, seeing the big from the small, you can get a glimpse of her eyes from her father's back house.If she is a man, she will be able to stand firm in the officialdom full of talents in the future!

Mrs. Guogong is really smart, she can see the leopard in the middle of a pipe, and draw inferences from one instance.

It's a pity that the Duke's Mansion can't keep such talented people.

Gu Huaizhe sighed in his heart.

At the family banquet, Gu Huaiyang tried his best to try to be perfect, and made jokes to keep the nobleman happy.From Xia Li's point of view, although Mu Yao is gentle, he is already a scheming person.That's right, people always have to grow up, if they were still so innocent, they would have been eaten to death in the cannibalistic officialdom long ago.

Xia Li noticed that Feng Xinlian's eyes lingered on Mu Yao from time to time, Xia Li was very familiar with this kind of eyes.It was the admiration for a man, as bold and direct as her, it was like Sima Zhao's heart was clearly revealed.

But Mu Yao didn't seem to see that look, and kept smiling like wearing a mask.Xia Li frowned, but she was thinking of another matter. Before she died, she heard that Sun Fangfei, the daughter of the British government, betrothed him, but why didn't he get married?

After drinking and eating, Gu Huaizhe led his family to see Mu Yao off.

Gu Huaiyang said enthusiastically: "The capital is outstanding, if Master Mu wants to travel around the mountains and rivers, it is better to let the officials and his family accompany him, and he will definitely make you feel at home."

Feng Xinlian's eyes lit up when he heard this.

Mu Yao said softly: "I hit it off with all of you immediately. If you want to visit the capital, I hope you will do your best as landlords."

Such a friendly expression of kindness by a powerful minister in the capital is as warm as spring breeze.

Xia Li nodded her head in a good manner, and said solemnly: "The Duke's Mansion will live up to your lord's trust."

Mu Yao gave her a gentle smile.

This made Feng Xinlian grit his teeth, it was Xia Li again!How did she fall into the noble man's eyes?

A trace of discomfort flashed across Gu Huaiyang's eyes, as if the treasures he had treasured all along had been snatched away.He secretly vowed that in the future, he would do whatever it takes to gain greater rights, and put Xia Li in a cage, so that only he could appreciate her beauty.

Everyone has different thoughts, and the Duke's Mansion is getting more and more lively.

The tribe came from Hangzhou, there were eleven elders and thirteen juniors.Because Xia Li had arranged the room a long time ago, there was no chaos, but the clansmen felt at home.

Xia Li was greeting the clansmen when Manager Huang from the kitchen came over and told: "Madam, the auspicious butcher said that a new batch of piglets has arrived, and the piglets are more fragrant than the old ones, so it's better to replace the old ones with young ones."

Xia Li pondered for a moment, and said, "Then replace them all with pork."

Usually there will be a roast suckling pig at the banquet, but it is difficult to find a small suckling pig, and most people will use a big old pig instead.And for this banquet, Xia Li also ordered a roasted suckling pig. She didn't expect to get a baby suckling pig, which was considered luck.

Manager Huang said with a look of embarrassment: "Tomorrow is the banquet, and everyone is busy, but I don't know who Madam will arrange to pick the suckling pigs?"

The wife of Changfang next to her said cheerfully: "We like to eat roast suckling pig the most. The skin is crispy and the meat is fine, without any fat. If you dip it in some sugar, it is simply delicious in the world."

The eldest daughter-in-law of the eldest house smiled and said: "Why don't we go there in person, it is also a blessing for the child to be able to choose the best suckling pig for mother!"

"I just went out to see the difference between the capital and Hangzhou." Mrs. Changfang still had a smile on her face, like a curious child.

Xia Li tried a few words of persuasion, but Mrs. Changfang still insisted on going in person.Xia Li couldn't persuade her, so she had to order someone to prepare the car.The eldest daughter-in-law of the long house was also accompanying her. Xia Li ordered a few more guards, and the group set off in a mighty manner.

After working for a long time, when the sun was high, everyone rushed back.

Kankan was walking on the main road, and a guard pointed ahead and shouted: "Beware of assassins!"

As soon as his voice fell, a group of assassins wearing black clothes and black face scarves rushed out, sharpening their knives and slashing with them.

Before everyone could react, they were besieged.

Suddenly, those guards rushed up, but these assassins were obviously well-trained, killing people like hemp, the guards of the Duke's Mansion were soon at a disadvantage.

The eldest wife and her daughter-in-law in the carriage turned pale with fright. Who would have expected that they would be assassinated if they didn't come out for a while?

A gust of cold wind blew past, bringing moisture and chill to everyone, and the overwhelming smell of blood filled their noses, making everyone's hearts hang in their throats.

Xia Li immediately ordered the driver, "Rush out!"

The carriage rushed out, and the sound of fighting behind was still so harsh.Xia Li raised the curtain, and saw more than a dozen black-clothed men with black masks chasing murderously. The bloody long sword shone with a strange light under the sunlight, like the death talisman of Lord Hades. It's frightening.

Xia Li's face was as white as snow, and the eldest wife and her daughter-in-law were also pale, trembling with panic.

"Hurry up!" Xia Li yelled.

In an instant, she seemed to have returned to her previous life, where she died without knowing why, and she died with regret.Although she has the will to survive, she has no way to resist.

Just when she was burning with anxiety, a pair of young men and women seemed to descend from the sky, gracefully beat the assassin to pieces, and finally fled away.

Xia Li was also very afraid. Although she was a human being in two lifetimes, she was just a boudoir, so she had never experienced such an assassination.She looked at a man and a woman in front of her with a pair of beautiful eyes. She was blessed and said gratefully: "Thank you for your help. If you can use the place in the Duke's Mansion in the future, please feel free to mention it." .”

This man and woman are Ping Wenjing and Ping Feng'er. They haven't seen Mu Yao since they came to the capital.It doesn't matter to Ping Wenjing, he has more important things to do.But Ping Feng'er quit, and misses Mu Yao day and night.Today she found out that Mu Yao would pass by here, so she dragged Ping Wenjing out to pretend to meet by chance, but she didn't expect that instead of waiting for Mu Yao for a long time, she claimed to help the woman who was intercepted by the assassin.

Ping Feng'er curled her lips, she was originally a child of the world, and she couldn't get used to the coquettish Didi's lady.Ping Wenjing is a few years older than her, but he knows how to behave. He said politely: "We are not from the capital, so we may not stay in Beijing for a long time. Miss, please go back quickly, so that the family will not worry."

Xia Li blessed her body and walked back to the carriage. She had also heard the scriptures, and knew that these people in the rivers and lakes did not expect to reciprocate their kindness, so she did not force it.

"Hey, wait! You said you belonged to the Duke's Mansion?" Ping Feng'er caught up with her, her brows relaxed and her expression excited.

Xia Li nodded and said, "Exactly."

Ping Feng'er was full of smiles, her face was flushed, and said: "Is there a banquet in your house tomorrow? Can you invite me?"

She heard from her brother that Mu Yao is going to be a guest at the Duke's Mansion tomorrow!As long as she can go too, wouldn't she have a chance to meet Brother Mu Yao?

Xia Li was shy when she saw the proud girl just now, and she didn't understand how she would show a kind of shyness when she saw her sweetheart.

Ping Wenjing reprimanded: "Nonsense! This is someone else's family business, how can you mess around? Are you still polite?"

Ping Feng'er pouted and said dissatisfiedly: "Didn't we just save someone's life? It is said that saving someone's life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. Can I go to someone's house as a guest?"

Although this was said to Ping Wenjing, Xia Li also understood it, and quickly said: "I don't know what the lady's boudoir name is? You can't repay your life-saving grace, and I invite you to come to the house as a guest."

Ping Fenger chirped: "My name is Ping Fenger, we will definitely be there tomorrow, it seems that you are not too stupid, you are very knowledgeable about current affairs! Don't worry, we won't make trouble for you..."

After talking a lot, Ping Feng'er was finally willing to leave.

After returning home, Xia Li took care of the eldest wife and eldest young mistress.She nestled in the tub with her eyes closed, thinking over and over why she met a killer?

Judging by the posture of those killers, they should be organized. I am just a boudoir woman, how can I offend any big shot?To offend, Feng Xinlian and Luo Yunshi are the only ones.But the two of them have been under their noses all the time, and they have no chance to pay for murder.

So who wants his own life?

She was meditating, but when she heard the curtain slam, she thought it was Haitang, so she said: "You don't have to wait on me tonight, I will soak again."

There was no response behind him.

Perhaps it was because she was frightened today, and when she turned her head, seeing someone coming, she was so frightened that her eyeballs fell out.
