Chapter 463: Thousand Miles Away (Update)
"No need, just send a message to Concubine Jia, and ask her to find a suitable opportunity to bring Wu'er back, avoid these disputes, and keep the green mountains, and you will not be afraid of running out of firewood!"
It is better to support his grandson than to support the fourth prince to take the throne.
Wu'er is related to him by blood, and has been raised by the Jia family since he was a child, so he is much more reliable than the fourth prince.
Gu Shaoyu hid in the dark, and wanted to listen again, but unfortunately there were footsteps outside the study. In order to prevent accidents, he left here in a flash, so he did not hear the whole thing of what Dingping Marquis's Mansion was going to do next.
But the most important thing, knowing it, he put most of his thoughts aside, and then went straight to the Xiangfu, and told Xiang Guo the news he had received in the past two days.
"The Wei family is still treacherous, and the Dingping Marquisate is trying to use the power of the other party to fight back. They are not good people."
Guo Silang's evaluation was right on target, and Gu Shaoyu thought so too. Then he looked at his grandfather and said indignantly.
"Grandfather, since the Wei family's surrender is already confirmed, why don't we just go and confiscate their house and catch them off guard? All the evidence of their crimes can be found. Then the Fourth Prince will be cut off first, and then we can deal with the Dingping Marquisate. Isn't it easier?"
His words were said lightly, but Prime Minister Guo did not agree.
"Do you think that the affairs of the court are just playing house? Do I need to teach you again the principle of moving the whole body with a single hair?"
Guo Silang was speechless after being retorted by Prime Minister Guo, and finally had no choice but to shut up.
On the contrary, Gu Shaoyu on the side analyzed calmly.
"Such a good opportunity, don't waste it. If the Wei family knew about the intentions of Dingping Marquis Mansion, I'm afraid we wouldn't have to do anything, and the two sides would fight."
Guo Xiang also meant this, and said with a creepy smile.
"Everyone wants to catch the cicada while the oriole is behind, but who is in the game is not up to them."
So he conspired with Gu Shaoyu. The cold wind from Sui'an City was blowing even more outside, as if to keep the last bit of chill, but the study room of Xiangfu was warm as spring.
In February, the coldness on the ground gradually subsided, such as the city in the south had already had a little warmth, and in Jinling City, there was another rare happy event.
Years ago, there was panic everywhere, but at this moment, smiles were on the faces of the people again, because the fourth lady of the Gu family, Gu Xiaolang, was going to get married in three days.
As lively as Gu's family, Yan Sanlang's yard was also bustling.
Although the place was not big, it was very clean, with red and colorful decorations everywhere, and the flowers, plants and trees were carefully cultivated. It can be seen that Yan Sanlang also put a lot of thought into marrying Gu Xiaolang.
He had asked for leave to stay at home for half a month to prepare, and Commander Pang of the Navy Camp was happy to give him a long vacation.
So, when Yan Sanlang was directing the servants who had just bought the house to hang the plaque, there were visitors.
"Sanlang."
"Third brother!"
"Third brother!"
Hearing this familiar voice, Yan Sanlang was a little surprised. He turned around and saw that the visitors were his mother, eldest sister-in-law and fourth brother. In an instant, he was overjoyed and walked over in surprise.
"Mother, sister-in-law, why are you here?"
"How dare you say that? You didn't tell the family about such a big thing as your marriage. What do you mean? Are you really going to abandon this family?"
The Countess was crying so hard that she couldn't help herself, so it was naturally the sister-in-law Li who started to curse.
Yan Sanlang knew that he was in the wrong. Although he scratched his head, he didn't refute. He just knelt down in front of the Countess and kowtowed.
"My son is unfilial and has caused trouble for my mother."
It takes at least a month to get from Sui'an City to Jinling City, so they can arrive at this time, which means they have been on the road at the end of the first month. This is not an easy thing for the Earl's Mansion to entertain all parties.
Therefore, it is easy to imagine that it must have taken a long time for the mother to come.
But the fact that my father and elder brother didn't come means that they may not agree with this matter, so since they can't stop it, they just turn a blind eye.
Yan Sanlang sighed in his heart, but soon adjusted himself.
He chose this path himself, and he wanted this wife, so his father and elder brother can have opinions, but they can't influence his opinions.
Seeing him kneeling, the countess couldn't say a thousand words she wanted to scold at this moment. She wiped her tears, let Yan Silang next to her help him up, and then said.
"Let's talk in the house."
"Yes, mother."
In the main room, the countess was busy looking at her son who she hadn't seen for a long time, her eyes full of heartache.
"You've lost weight and become darker, but you look much more energetic than before."
Yan Sanlang smiled. He used to live a muddle-headed life, which was not as fulfilling and goal-oriented as now. Naturally, it was different.
"My son is working in the navy camp, so he can't be careless, so it's common to be exposed to the wind and sun. Don't worry too much, mother."
"I know."
Before the countess finished speaking, she was snatched away by Yan Silang next to her. He pulled Yan Sanlang's sleeve and said.
"Third brother, your achievements have been reported back. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is very happy. He said before that he would give you a great reward. I just don't know why it has taken so long to come."
His words did not make any other meanings in Yan Sanlang's ears. He also knew that Gu Shaoyu had left Jinling City, so he naturally understood that something might have happened in Sui'an City. If that was the case, he would not argue about it at this critical moment.
The real thing is to get this marriage done safely and steadily.
As soon as she entered the door, the eldest sister-in-law Li looked around and couldn't help sighing after looking at the palm-sized house.
"Third brother, are you really going to get married here?"
"Yes."
"Anyway, you are marrying the daughter of the Gu family, and the same person your mother asked for you at the beginning. Otherwise, come back with us after the marriage. Your yard in the Earl's Mansion has been cleaned up. When the daughter of the Gu family comes in, I will definitely treat her as my own sister!"
The words of the eldest sister-in-law Li were also one of the purposes of their trip.
That is to let Yan Sanlang and Gu Xiaolang return to Sui'an City to live after the marriage.
In the eyes of everyone in the Earl's Mansion, since Yan Sanlang has been appreciated by the prince for his own ability, he should hurry back as fast as possible. After all, that is where the capital of the Daxing Dynasty is located and where the Earl's Mansion is based.
He has worked hard, and with the prince's appreciation, he is on the road to success, so it is easy to imagine what choice he should make!
See you at noon for the fifth update. I'm going to sleep first. I can't stand it anymore. . .
