After being granted the title of Marquis, Zhao Zongquan was given a house just behind the Dongchang Hou Mansion. It was originally the residence of Xuan Ping Hou. However, he rebelled with King Yan, not only costing his own life, but also his whole family.

After being questioned, the Xuanpinghou Mansion became vacant.

"Daddy..." Sister Lan was carried by Qin Hao to the new house to play, and she muttered a lot. Unfortunately, for a child over one year old, baby talk is really difficult to understand, except for

The first one Dad said was relatively clear, but the rest was a bit confusing.

Yu Yanran was in high spirits directing the people to move things. The advantage of living in separate houses is that from now on she will be the mistress of the house. From now on, when other people see her, they will call her: Mrs. Yu, or Mrs. Jinghaihou, rather than like

Just like before, with Qin Liu on top of her head, she could only shout: Mrs. Yu.

"Zihan, why didn't I see you after looking around for a while? It turns out you are hiding here for some peace and quiet." Gu Tingye entered the pavilion in a hurry.

Qin Hao smiled and said to his daughter: "Sister Lan, this is your second uncle, please call me second uncle."

"Uncle..." Sister Lan held it in for a while before she came out.

Gu Tingye was so happy that he took out a jade pendant from his arms and gave it to Sister Lan. The color turned out to be mutton-fat jade.

"It seems that calling me uncle is not in vain. Sister Lan, why don't you thank me, uncle." Qin Hao knew Gu Tingye's family background and did not refuse. He would just give him a generous gift when Gu Tingye gets married in a while.

"Thank you, uncle..." Sister Lan grabbed the mutton-fat jade pendant with her chubby hands and played with it for a while, then lost interest. Qin Hao asked the maid who took care of her to put it away. The child was too young and could easily fall.

, wait for her to grow older before wearing it for her.

Qin Hao was a little curious: "You are not preparing for the wedding at home, so why are you coming to me at this time?"

Gu Tingye chuckled: "A few days ago, I asked the officials to give me a house, so I came here to see how you arranged it."

Qin Hao nodded. Chengyuan was formerly the Governor's Mansion. It was the residence where Emperor Taizu Gao granted him the title of "Zhongjing Marquis". It was a neighbor of Ningyuan Marquis Mansion, so the street in front of these two houses was also called Zhongning Street.

Later, the Zhongjing Marquis Mansion was involved in a treason case, and it was revealed that he was deprived of his titles, property, property, property, and family.

Later, the Zhongjing Hou Mansion was given to the famous official "Xiong Linshan" and renamed "Chengyuan". After Xiong retired and returned to his hometown, he returned the garden to the imperial court.

Gu Tingye did a good job this time. When Zhao Zongquan asked him what reward he wanted, Gu Tingye thought of Minglan who was about to marry, so as to prevent her from being angry with the Xiao Qin family, so he said that he wanted a separate house and lived in separate houses after the marriage.

.

So Zhao Zongquan gave Chengyuan to Gu Tingye.

Qin Hao carried Sister Lan and took Gu Tingye around the yard. The Xuanping Marquis Mansion was about the same size as the Dongchang Marquis Mansion, covering an area of ​​about 100 acres. It had gardens, ponds, pavilions and waterside pavilions.

It can be seen that the original Marquis Xuanping's family background was still very rich.

If he hadn't participated in the rebellion, he wouldn't have ended up like this.

After walking around for a while, it was already noon, so Qin Hao decided to leave Gu Tingye down to eat. After all, he had just received a jade pendant from someone else, so he was short-handed.

While eating, Sister Lan kept staring at the roasted leg of lamb on the table. Unfortunately, her teeth could not bite it, so she could only drool. This made Qin Hao feel bad, so he tore the lamb into strips and mixed it with the rice.

Feed her the paste.

Seeing this, Gu Tingye joked: "I didn't expect Zihan to take care of the child in a decent manner."

That is to say, the friendship between the two is deep enough, otherwise this statement would be considered a curse in ancient times. Qin Hao did not take it seriously and continued to feed his daughter rice cereal.

"You moved out right now, and the madam didn't stop you?"

After Gu Yankai's death, Xiao Qin was promoted to the rank of concubine. Her status suddenly improved, but her temper also became a bit irritable. If it weren't for the maintenance of her benevolent persona for many years, the underlings in the mansion would probably

Everyone will suffer.

When Gu Tingye heard this, he curled his lips in disdain: "Of course you won't let me go so easily. I cried and complained to the Queen Mother several times, but I pushed her back."

Qin Hao reminded: "You still have to be careful about my aunt, she is not a fuel-efficient lamp."

"Yes, I was bewitched by her when I was young, which caused my reputation to be ruined. Otherwise, I wouldn't have married now. This poisonous snake is most deadly when it is hidden in the dark." Gu Tingye sighed.

The days passed quickly. On June 6th, the day of Gu Tingye's wedding, Qin Hao was also dragged into doing coolies, along with the gang from Yuzhou.

The nobles in Bianjing somewhat looked down on the people in Yuzhou, thinking that they were just lucky enough to get the title from the dragon. The people in Yuzhou also felt that the nobles in Bianjing were just sitting on their bodies and lying on the merits of their ancestors.

A dandy boy waiting to die.

Qin Hao actually didn't think highly of these people in Yuzhou, especially Shen Congxin, who made a mess of the situation he had worked so hard to manage, and finally asked him to wipe his ass.

However, for Gu Tingye's sake, Qin Hao didn't show it too obviously.

They beat gongs and drums all the way to the door of the Sheng family. At this time, the Sheng family was also decorated with lanterns and decorations. Gu Tingye was now a celebrity in front of the officials and had the title of Marquis of Ningyuan. How many people wanted to marry him, but they were picked up by the Sheng family.

Thanks to the benefits, Sheng Hong now wakes up laughing from his dreams at night.

With Sheng Changbai as an internal agent, Qin Hao and his party successfully passed through the middle gate, and Gu Tingye finally received the bride. Ming Lan, who was dressed in green, looked particularly beautiful, which made Gu Tingye's heart surge.

Wang Ruofu felt a little bit sour that such a good husband had taken advantage of Minglan, a commoner girl. She didn't know what kind of family her Rulan would find in the future.

Sheng Hong still told Minglan seriously: "When you marry someone else, you must be filial to your elders, be friendly to your sisters-in-law, and don't make people laugh at the Sheng family for their lax upbringing."

Minglan leaned forward slightly: "Thank you for your father's teachings. Minglan will keep them in mind."

Just when Minglan turned around to leave with Gu Tingye, Mrs. Sheng held Minglan's hand, tears streaming down her face.

After finally stopping her tears, Mrs. Sheng let go of Minglan: "Go, go, live a good life."

Minglan also burst into tears and her makeup was stained.

The next banquet was rather boring. Gu Tingye's popularity in Bianjing City was not good. In addition, he was relatively close to the people in Yuzhou. Most of the nobles in Bianjing City did not come, so they sent their family members to see him off.

received a congratulatory gift.

However, King Huan came in person, and Gu Tingye also introduced Qin Hao.

King Huan Zhao Yingce was a very talented and ambitious man. Zhao Zongquan originally did not want to accept the blood edict, but it was his urging that convinced Zhao Zongquan to use the military talisman to mobilize troops to serve the king.

However, Zhao Zongquan did not appoint Zhao Yingce as the crown prince, but gave him the title of King Huan. This is worth pondering.

Zhao Yingce stopped Qin Hao who was about to salute and said with a smile: "Zihan doesn't need to be polite. Since you are Zhonghuai's cousin, you are one of our own. Just be casual."

Qin Hao understood that the reason why Zhao Yingce was so polite to him was mainly because the auspicious white tiger helped Zhao Zongquan gain righteousness and made their father and son's political status more stable.

Zhao Yingce then asked Qin Hao about overseas situations. Qin Hao did not hide anything and recounted his experience of the Spice Islands in detail.

Zhao Yingce was amazed when he heard this: "It turns out that there is such a vast territory outside the Central Plains. In the future..."

At this point, Zhao Yingce paused. If he went on to say that, he was suspected of coveting the throne. This was very taboo even for father and son.

As he was talking, Gu Tingye was already a little drunk, but Qin Hao knew how drunk he was. This guy was obviously pretending to be drunk, probably in a hurry to enter the bridal chamber.

After Gu Tingye, the rightful owner, left, Qin Hao followed suit and returned to Xuanpinghou Mansion. Oh, by this time it had been renamed "Jinghaihou Mansion".

However, when Qin Hao came to the main room, he found that the door was closed. Yu Yanran said to Qin Hao through the door.

"Master Marquis, it's inconvenient today, so I'd better go to Qingmei and Feicui's place to rest."

Well, it's obvious that he won't be allowed to rest.

Since Qingmei raised her aunt, she has the qualification to live alone in a small courtyard. This time she moved and was assigned to a pretty good courtyard. This is also the reason why Qin Hao only has two concubines now. The family is big,

It can be accommodated in any arrangement.

"Master Hou." Qingmei wore a silk cyan wide-sleeved shirt today and looked at Qin Hao with a charming face.

Qingmei's figure was originally quite attractive, but it has grown in size over the years.

Qin Hao walked up to Qingmei and rubbed the back of his hand on her smooth face. Qingmei's breathing became rapid and she closed her eyes.

"Miss me?" Qin Hao leaned into Qingmei's ear and said.

.......

There was no words for a night. The next day, Qin Hao woke up and Qingmei was still asleep. She tried her best to cater to Qin Hao last night, but after drinking last night, her fighting power increased greatly, and Qingmei was quickly defeated.

Qin Hao was about to stand up when Qingmei hugged his waist.

"Turns out I was pretending to sleep." Qin Hao pinched Qingmei's cheek.

Qingmei grabbed Qin Hao's hand and rubbed it: "Master Hou, can I have a child?"

Qin Hao was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered that because Yu Yanran had never had children, Qingmei and Feicui had to take Zizi Decoction. After all, it would be very troublesome for the eldest son not to be born directly.

"Of course you can." Qin Hao agreed. In fact, Yu Yanran also told him about this when she was in confinement. However, Qin Hao went to sea for more than a year and had no time to have sex with Qingmei and Jade, so naturally he

Shelved.

Qingmei cried with joy. In ancient times, a woman's status was closely related to her children. If Qingmei could give birth to a son and a half for Qin Hao, even the concubine's future life would be guaranteed.

"Don't take Fuzi Decoction from now on, and take good care of yourself." Qin Hao wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and said softly.

"Thank you Lord Marquis for your mercy." Qingmei said gratefully.

In the next few days, Qin Hao hardly rested. He took turns spending the night in Qingmei and Jade's rooms every day. Thanks to the ancient noble families who had secret tonics, otherwise he would really not be able to bear it.

.

Qin Hao suddenly admired the ancient emperors. How could they carry the seventy-two concubines in the three palaces and six courtyards, one in a day? Qin Hao also specially wrote down the secret recipe of the Hou Mansion. In the future, if he gets this modern thing, it will be priceless.

My baby, it is much more effective than sildenafil.

A week after Gu Tingye and Minglan got married, Yu Yanran and Qin Hao went to Chengyuan. It turned out that it was already three o'clock in the morning and Minglan was still sleeping.

Yu Yanran joked: "It seems that Gu Hou has really pampered you to the heavens. How can any bride not get up at this point in her sleep?"

Minglan mouthed in a daze: "It was also his fault. I worked so late last night. How can I not be sleepy?"
