Chapter 5: Ling Qianjin is really arrogant
In the front hall, General Gu Hui sat upright in the upper seat, frowned, but was still calm.
In his first guest seat, he was an old and a young man. The boy was about seventeen or eighteen years old, with handsome eyebrows, extraordinary talent and noble appearance.
Compared to the teenager's noble and arrogant attitude, the old man's face was indeed ashen and his eyes were filled with anger.
"General Gu, Your Highness, my prince, has been waiting here for a long time. I don't know when the daughter of your mansion will come out to meet."
General Gu Hui did not impatient at all, took a sip of tea slowly, and deliberately delayed: "I have ordered the servant to report it just now, and I guess it will be out in no time."
Of course, Gu Hui did not tell them, and he also ordered the maid, if the lady was doing something else, she would not disturb her.
So, when Xiaowan saw Gu Qingge sleeping, she obediently followed the instructions and did not wake her up.
"Hmph! Ling Qianjin is really arrogant. He actually made our Crown Prince wait here for her for an entire hour."
The old man hummed unhappily.
Gu Hui frowned and swept his eyes over the old man with a faint look.
"My granddaughter wants to do something, so I let the prince wait for a long time. If you can't wait, you can leave and I won't send it away."
"You!" The old man's face turned red by Gu Hui's neither salty nor light words.
He cursed without hesitation: "Everyone in Kyoto knows that Gu Qingge is a useless man who cannot practice!"
"What can she do except chase the prince all day long? Now that the prince is waiting in person, she dares not show up. This is just those tricks of playing hard to get!"
"I really thought that if you hide on purpose, the Crown Prince would look down on her forever! I wouldn't see what embarrassing scandal she did some time ago! It's so shameless that she robbed the civilians in the street! It's so conscience and shameless!"
Bang!
Gu Hui's palm fell on the table with great force, and even the teacup was shattered.
He looked at the old man coldly with his eyes wide open, with anger surging in his eyes.
"Xue De! My granddaughter of Gu Hui, it's not your turn to point fingers! If you don't want to live anymore, you can just say it!"
"Besides, do you have any evidence that my granddaughter did such a scandal, just by the man's side?"
"You remember it for me. If I hear this from your dog again, I don't mind taking the soldiers in my hands to step on your mansion!"
"Anyway, you know that I, Gu Hui, cannot do such a thing!"
Hearing this, Xue De's face turned pale, and a major case that caused a sensation in Kyoto more than ten years ago appeared in his mind.
Back then, Gu Qingge's parents led the army to fight against the enemy country. As a result, Prime Minister Yuan accidentally leaked important military intelligence, causing her parents to die tragically on the frontier.
For this reason, Gu Hui, who was heartbroken, directly stepped on the entire Prime Minister's Mansion with his army, and this incident caused a sensation in the entire Feng Kingdom.
In the end, it was His Majesty who came forward and persuaded him to settle the matter.
In order to appease the general's mansion, the emperor asked Prime Minister Yuan to visit Gu Qingge's parents every year and compensated him with a large amount of gold and silver.
However, everyone still understood that the emperor favored Prime Minister Yuan.
The reason is that Prime Minister Yuan’s daughter is the emperor’s favorite concubine. When she blew the wind beside her pillow, she picked up this matter high and put it down gently.
Prime Minister Yuan, who was supposed to be left behind, not only did not die, but even promoted year by year, and finally reached the position of Prime Minister who was below one person and above ten thousand people.
As for visiting the grave?
It would be fine if you don't step on both feet.
"Grandpa, it seems that your liver fire has been very strong recently. Do you want your granddaughter to get you two sets of medicine to reduce your anger?"
Just then, a laugh came from outside the hall.
The girl was wearing a white dress with exquisite embroidery, and the smile on her lips was a bit lazy and scattered. Her eyes looked at Gu Hui with a smile on her face, and walked in slowly.
From beginning to end, she never looked at the young man or the old man in the hall.
The boy who was drinking tea slowly slowly finally raised his head after hearing Gu Qingge's voice and glanced at the girl entering the door, which was a pity.
I have to say that Gu Qingge is indeed a beauty, but it’s a pity that he has a good skin, but he is a useless man with no talent for cultivation.
How can such a woman be worthy of standing by his side?
He is destined to be the one among the people and will ascend the throne in the future. This is just a waste that everyone disdains.
"Ahem," Gu Hui coughed twice, with a hint of embarrassment on his face, "Ge'er, are you here?"
Didn’t this stinky girl see him venting her anger? She even asked him to reduce the fire?
In fact, Gu Qingge has been at the door for a while.
Of course, the old man and Xue De heard almost the same thing.
At first, she was indeed a little disgusted with Gu Hui because of indiscriminate accountability.
But unexpectedly, this old guy in front of others would spare no effort to protect her.
This made her feel that it seemed like a very good thing to have such a grandfather. It was a pity that Gu Qingge was dead and could never see her again. Her grandfather was defending her appearance in front of outsiders.
"Didn't you call me? I woke up and naturally came."
wake?
Gu Hui's old face became more and more embarrassing. This girl was sleeping when she was staying in the room for so long?
"Haha," Xue De said sarcastically.
"I have said a long time ago that Gu Qingge is a waste, how could he have something to do? It turns out that he is sleeping!"
"Your Highness, the Crown Prince, have been waiting for so long."
Gu Qingge glanced at him and said slowly: "Sleeping is a major event in life. If I haven't woken up, no one will see me."
"Ge'er." Gu Hui scolded lightly, then looked at the young man: "Your Highness, please say something. What's wrong with you coming to the General's Mansion today?"
The young man put down the teacup in his hand, his eyes were not filled with emotion, and he said in a cold voice: "General Gu Hui, this time I came to this general's mansion to break the engagement!"
"The general should be clear that there is something wrong with the daughter's physical condition. If she does not have the help of her master, she will be a waste that cannot be cultivated for the rest of her life."
"So, as a condition, this prince will order Xue De to do his best to help Qianjin so that she can practice and may not make any difference in the future, but at least she can be like an ordinary person and not be a waste for the rest of her life."
When the word "break-up" fell, Gu Hui's face obviously looked a little unfavorable.
