Chapter 602 She Is Dead

Gu Jiu left the palace and returned home with a heavy heart.

Emperor Wende wants to get involved in the express delivery industry, Gu Jiu has no objection.

But she should not be allowed to shoulder the burden of the court.

She is not a court official.

Of course, there is still room for manipulation in this matter, and she can use the power of the court to expand brutally in a short period of time.

It's just that I'm still upset.

When Liu Zhao came back, Gu Jiu threw a pillow at him.

"Are your Liu family members all robbers?"

"Father is a robber, you scold him."

Gu Jiu rolled his eyes at him, "You are his son, you have to take the blame."

Liu Zhao pinched his nose, he should take the blame.

He said: "If you really don't like it, I will refuse it for you. It's a big deal to stop this business."

"Why not?"

Gu Jiu snorted and sat up from the soft bed, feeling very unhappy.

Liu Zhao: "..." A woman's thoughts are really capricious.

It is better for him to say a few words.

Just in time, Brother Yu came back.

"Mother, give me a hug."

Liu Zhao stared and scolded angrily: "Your mother is pregnant, how can she hug you."

Brother Yu looked innocent.

Gu Jiu glared at Liu Zhao, "What are you scolding him for, he is not the one who is wrong."

Liu Zhao's expression immediately became peaceful, "I'm afraid he will hurt you."

Gu Jiu chuckled, "He can't hurt me."

After finishing speaking, he stretched out his hands towards Brother Yu, "Come here, mother hugs."

Brother Yu cautiously approached Gu Jiu's arms, with a sweet smile on his face, his eyebrows curved, "Mother's body is fragrant."

"Brother Yu smells good too."

Gu Jiu hugged the child,

He took the hot towel from the maid and wiped the child's cheeks, "Did the master save any homework?"

Brother Yu nodded heavily, "I left a lot of homework."

"Can you finish it?"

As a parent, Gu Jiu has mixed feelings, and occasionally feels stuffy.

The master assigns a lot of homework, which shows that the master is responsible.

But there is too much homework, and the child is so young, and he suffers.

Occasionally, when he failed to complete his homework, or did not do well, the child was scolded by Liu Zhao, and various names similar to fools fell on the child. Chickens fly and dogs jump, like eighteen layers of purgatory.

Brother Yu seriously calculated the homework to be done today, and said pitifully: "It's a bit difficult, I'm hungry."

"Why are you hungry?"

Gu Jiu squeezed Brother Yu's little face, "Are you fat? Take a quick look, is Brother Yu fat again?"

Liu Zhao said "hmm" and said with a serious face: "It's still too little exercise to gain weight."

Brother Yu opened his innocent eyes wide, with a look of lovelessness on his face.

Is Daddy a devil?

Liu Zhao then said: "Exercise for half an hour first, and then do your homework. Eat less at night."

As a foodie, Brother Yu fell into deep despair.

Daddy is indeed a devil.

Liu Zhao didn't say a word of nonsense, and directly carried Brother Yu to the school grounds.

Gu Jiu: "..." What could she say?

Nanny Fang's heart ached so badly, her eyes were so red that she almost shed tears.

Wiping the corners of her eyes, she said to Gu Jiu, "Ma'am, this servant will bring water to my brother."

Gu Jiu knew that if she disagreed, Nanny Fang would suffer all night.

She waved her hand, "Go, go. Remember to drink green plum wedding wine with me tomorrow."

"Slave remembers."

Brother Yu was pressured by Liu Zhao to exercise for half an hour, and he was pressured to finish all his homework. During this period, he suffered a lot of scolding, and some rulers were added.

After finally finishing his homework, Brother Yu threw himself into Gu Jiu's arms with tears in his eyes.

"Daddy is so fierce!"

What can Gu Jiu do?

I can only comfort Brother Yu patiently, "Be good and don't cry."

"My son is not full." Brother Yu said aggrievedly.

It turned out that this was what really made him sad.

As the emperor's grandson, he didn't even have enough to eat.

He felt wronged and said: "Daddy said that my son has gained weight and cannot eat more. My son just ate a small bowl at night."

He made a very pitiful gesture about how small the small bowl was.

Gu Jiu couldn't laugh or cry.

"It's time to sleep, and I can't eat anymore. If you eat too much and accumulate food at night, you won't grow taller, you will only gain weight."

Brother Yu opened a pair of innocent eyes, very tangled.

He asked in a low voice, "Is it really not tall?"

Gu Jiu nodded and said affirmatively, "It's not tall."

Brother Yu is about to cry.

"Then, that son won't eat."

It's hard to say!

Gu Jiu smiled sullenly and rubbed his head, "It must not be eaten. Can it be done?"

Brother Yu struggled for a while, and then reluctantly said: "I must not eat." As soon as the words fell, his face was already full of love.

Gu Jiu held back her laughter and hugged him, "Brother Yu is awesome, and will keep getting better and better."

In the future, she will praise Brother Yu more.

This night, Brother Yu fell asleep from hunger.

The little faces are wrinkled.

Nanny Fang kept saying, "At least let my brother eat enough."

Gu Jiu whispered, "The child is overweight."

"Brother is not heavy at all. Blessed children can grow chubby."

Gu Jiu shook her head slightly, "Mommy, my brother was born to be the grandson of the emperor, and his blessing has already surpassed 99% of the people in the world. When the water is full, it overflows. Being in the royal family, obesity has never been a blessing."

Instead, it will become the object of ridicule and attack by others.

Gu Jiu didn't want Brother Yu to be ridiculed because of being fat one day.

I don't even want Brother Yu to be called obese.

Nanny Fang opened her mouth and said weakly, "Brother is so pitiful."

Gu Jiu shook his head, "What he has now, other people can't get it in a lifetime of hard work. It's just a matter of two mouthfuls of food, so it's pitiful. And he needs to learn restraint."

In the royal family, the unrestrained expansion of desire cannot be tolerated. Knowing restraint is a more important homework than learning.

Gu Jiu will not let brother Yu open his stomach to eat just because he is young and studies hard.

After all, Gu Jiu and Liu Zhao have the final say on Brother Yu's education.

Even though Nanny Fang felt sorry for Brother Yu, she could only follow orders.

However, the next morning, Nanny Fang put more food than usual into Brother Yu's basket.

Gu Jiu was speechless.

Brother Yu was very excited, his eyes lit up.

"Thank you ma'am!"

After receiving a thank you, Nanny Fang was cheerful all morning.

Gu Jiu also got up early today, dressed up, and went out to attend Qingmei's wedding.

The wedding was organized by Deng Cunli.

The guard Zhao San wanted to marry a wife, so he took out all the money he had saved over the years and built a three-entry house in the capital.

Today, the courtyard is full of guests. The guards of the palace, the servants, the guys of the Four Seas Commercial Company, many people were invited to come to have a wedding wine.

Qingmei borrowed a house from the Four Seas Commercial Company for her wedding in order to house more guests.

Gu Jiu brought Qingzhu and the others to visit Qingmei.

"lady!"

Qingmei hadn't seen Gu Jiu for a while, but she couldn't hide her excitement when she saw him suddenly.

Seeing that the tears were about to fall, Xi Niang hurriedly reminded, "I can't cry, I can't cry, my makeup is all worn out."

"Don't cry." Gu Jiu gently wiped the corners of her eyes, "Today is your day of great joy, so be happy."

"When I think about not being able to serve Madam, I feel uncomfortable." Qingmei said holding back her tears.

Gu Jiu took her hand and sat down on the bed, "From now on, you will be the wife of General Ningyuan, the fifth-rank official, and you can no longer call yourself a slave. You have been by my side these years, and what you have seen, heard, and learned , I hope you can make good use of it and manage your own small family well. You don’t have to worry about me here, come and visit me when you have time.”

Qingmei nodded heavily, "Slave..."

"Huh?" Gu Jiu had a straight face, why did she call herself a slave again?

Qingmei smiled shyly, "I'll visit Madam when I'm free."

Gu Jiu cheered up, "That's right. To be an official's wife, you must have the airs of an official's wife. Even the wife of a general should not fall into prestige. From this moment on, you must always remind yourself that you will not It's a servant girl, but an official wife."

Qingmei nodded, "I will listen to Madam."

At this time, Xi Niang was urging, the bridegroom came, and the auspicious time was coming, so hurry up.

Gu Jiu let go of Qingmei's hand, "It's almost auspicious time, and I won't delay you. Hurry up and say goodbye to your parents, siblings. I'll go to Zhao's house for a wedding in a while."

Reluctantly, Qingmei resigned from Gu Jiu.

Gu Jiu was also preparing to go out and head to Zhao's house.

The hall was crowded with people.

Qingzhu said: "Today there are quite a lot of guests at Qingmei's house."

"Qing Mei is married, everyone will naturally come to support her. Even the old lady of the Hou Mansion sent someone to give her a make-up gift."

After hearing this, Gu Jiu sneered, "My maid is outstanding in everything, marrying anyone is not considered high-profile."

This is not Gu Jiu boasting.

Qingmei is the director of the housekeeper, and she is familiar with the way of training the little maids. He is even more proficient in kitchen needlework. Literate and hyphenated, able to write and count, 18th class skills, proficient in everything. Over the years, he has also accumulated a large amount of private money.

On the bright side, Qingmei only has three thousand taels of dowry. Among them, two thousand taels were bought by Gu Jiu for her.

In fact, Qingmei has tens of thousands of taels of dowry. Most of them are projects outside the Nancheng Gate, and there are also equity interests in the cement road from Beijing to Luozhou.

Just eating these two dividends every year, you can get a lot of money.

Whoever marries Qingmei will have no worries about food and clothing, and the inner courtyard will be peaceful.

The guard Zhao San has eyes, and among all living beings, he fell in love with Qingmei.

The two are in harmony, and they will be able to live a prosperous life.

Gu Jiu reminded the maid beside her, "Study hard with Qingmei, and you will be able to marry a good man in the future."

The faces of the maidservants were flushed. All with a glimmer of hope.

Gu Jiu went to Zhao's house for a wedding.

Just in time to meet Liu Zhao.

Zhao San is very excited to marry a new wife. Before drinking, his face was already red.

Gu Jiu and Liu Zhao drank their wedding wine together. Gu Jiu is pregnant, so she can only substitute tea for wine.

Everyone is happy and the atmosphere is very warm.

Gu Jiu and Liu Zhao were present, and everyone couldn't let go.

So the husband and wife were very knowledgeable, drank three cups, and left early.

Gu Jiu sat on the carriage, a little sleepy.

I got up earlier today than Wangri, and I always felt that I didn't get enough sleep, and the weather was fine, so I felt a little drowsy.

Halfway through the journey, Liu Zhao went to the yamen and ordered the guard Haosheng to escort Gu Jiu back to the palace.

Gu Jiu raised the curtain and reminded Liu Zhao: "Come back earlier."

Liu Zhao smiled and said, "I'll be back when I'm done."

The two parted.

The carriage wobbled, making Gu Jiu more sleepy.

Suddenly, the eardrum seemed to be burst.

People roar and horses neigh.

Men's roars, women's screams, children's cries...

Chaos, chaos, the whole street is in chaos.

"what happened?"

"Madam, don't come out. There are mad dogs on the street, and they are biting people everywhere."

"Why are there mad dogs on the street?"

"Be vigilant, be vigilant. Protect the carriage, and never let the mad dog approach."

The streets are getting more chaotic.

Crowded with many people, stampede is unavoidable.

call out!

Something pierces the air.

The head of the guards was the first to react, "There is a surprise attack on the roof. Protect your wife and drive the carriage away from here."

"Be alert, be alert. No matter who comes close, they will be killed without mercy!"

Killing the word exit means that someone will die on the spot today.

Ding!

Arrows pierced through the wall of the carriage.

The arrow made of fine iron exudes a cold light. It's like an executioner who harvests human lives.

"what!"

The maid Xiaoyu screamed.

"To shut up!"

Qingzhu slapped her face, and covered her mouth with his hands.

"Madam, don't be afraid, this servant will protect you." Wang Yi pulled out his dagger and stood by Gu Jiu's side.

Gu Jiu looked calm.

The carriage is large and roomy.

The arrow penetrated the wall of the car, and the remaining half was stuck. No one in the carriage was hurt.

Someone is trying to kill her!

Who will it be?

In Gu Jiu's mind, the serious face of Princess Chaoyang first popped up.

People who run casinos are naturally not good men and women.

She said to Wang Yi: "I'm not worried, just let it go."

"The servant's duty is to stay close to Madam."

Gu Jiu nodded, staring at the arrow on the wall of the carriage.

The arrow is definitely made of refined iron.

Immediately she laughed.

Princess Chaoyang is doomed this time!
