Chapter 218 On Fire...
Xia Hourui was in a very good mood. He and Gu Yiwen, who came from the Southern Wilderness, hit it off immediately. The two of them had lunch at Jinhua Pavilion.
In the afternoon, Gu Qingyu invited the Marquis to the brothel to have fun.
Twenty Hu Ji dancers were dancing the Hu Xuan dance on the dance floor. They wore pink and purple tube tops and apricot gauze skirts. They had golden arm rings on their bare white arms and their hair was combed into flying buns.
They danced with long veils, looking light and graceful like fairies descending from the earth.
Gu Yiwen took a sip of the dark red wine in the glass. He glanced at the people around him with his narrow and long phoenix eyes. Gu Yiwen found that there was a person behind him who looked very familiar, but he couldn't remember who he was.
Xiahou Rui has a beloved daughter who is old and has been waiting to get married. He is thinking that if he marries his daughter Xiahou Wanrou to Gu Yiwen, their families will become related, and Gu Yiwen will be able to stay in Western Wilderness for a long time.
As the son-in-law of the Marquis's mansion, this identity is not an insult to him.
Because this was their first meeting today, Xia Hourui could not mention this matter directly, so he said to Gu Yiwen:
"Brother Gu, since you are here, why don't you stay at my house tonight..."
Gu Yiwen said politely:
"That would be too much trouble for you, sir. I'd better stay in the inn..."
"Hey, brothers, don't be so rude. Tomorrow, I will ask the chef in the mansion to make you a roasted whole lamb. He used to be an imperial chef, and everything he makes tastes delicious. Brother Gu has come a long way, so don't be polite to me..."
Gu Yiwen curled his lips and smiled:
"Brother, you are so kind, I dare not disobey..."
Three hours later, Gu Yiwen went to rest in the guest room of the Marquis' Mansion. Looking at the luxurious antique ornaments and jade articles in the room, Gu Yiwen absentmindedly thought of his own time in the Gu Mansion of the Dayu Dynasty. Before his house was confiscated, he also liked such decorations in his own room.
A few years have passed in a flash, and the fat and bloated master of the third branch of the Gu family has disappeared.
Gu Yiwen led Ye Jiu's caravan to travel to many places in three years.
They earned millions of silver. Gu Yiwen originally didn't know that the profits of the caravan were so high. Silk, tea, porcelain, etc. were all very popular, especially the dried meat that his sister-in-law Ye Jiu brought to Gu Yiwen.
The backyard of the mansion...
The eldest daughter, Xiahou Wanrou, is now admiring herself in front of the dressing mirror. She is beautiful even though she is nearly thirty years old now.
Yunying is the unmarried Xiahou Wanrou, who has delicate skin and rosy cheeks.
On the big tree outside the window, there were two secret guards of the Marquis' Mansion guarding the safety of the young lady's yard. The secret guard Tu Su was staring at the moon in a daze. He had just caught a glimpse of Xia Hou Wanrou's face through the young lady's window. Her innocent yet charming little face made Tu Su swallow nervously. Tu Su's Adam's apple rolled up and down, and his bright eyes flashed with excitement and admiration.
Tu Su knew that the eldest lady might find a husband, and she didn't want to get married.
The secret guard Feng Liu was holding the dagger in his hand boredly. He gently stroked the scabbard of the dagger. Feng Liu was thinking about the competition between the "Qinglong Academy" and the foreign academy.
The two secret guards suddenly saw a flame rising in the distance, and that direction seemed to be the location of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
The two looked at each other, Feng Liu said:
"You stay here, I'll go inform the boss..."
He said that the whole person suddenly leaped into the distance like a flying bird.
Tu Su was stunned for a moment. He held the whip at his waist and stared at the yard.
Xiahou Wanrou in the room was wearing a thin white silk nightgown. Her cloud-like black hair was scattered on the blue satin square pillow. As she closed her eyes and prepared to go to sleep, she suddenly felt a tightness in her chest. She felt a little pain in her heart. This was an old problem, and Xiahou Wanrou didn't take it seriously.
The maid Bilian was wearing a dark pink embroidered bodice on her upper body and a green long skirt on her lower body. Bilian, who was so sleepy that she was sitting on a low stool in front of the young lady's couch, with her head resting on the edge of the couch.
The master and servant in the house lived a peaceful life. They didn't know that the room of the third daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion next door was on fire. Feng Qingyue was trapped in the room by the fire and had been fainted by the thick smoke.
Feng Qingya, the second young lady of the mansion who was recognized later, stared at the flames in the distance with hatred. The second young lady was born on the road. She was born together with the girl in the neighboring car. A midwife was in charge of two pregnant women. The anxious midwife picked up the wrong babies from the two mansions.
A few days ago, after Feng Qingya was rescued from the lake, someone discovered that she looked exactly like the Prime Minister's wife.
This led to the incident where the fake daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Feng Qingya, was exposed.
At this time, the real daughter of the prime minister, Feng Qingya, came back, and the fake one was on the way. She was sent back to the seaside fishing village with a look of despair on her face.
This time, the real daughter and the villagers went to the capital to sell fish. After selling the fish, they watched the scenery by the lake.
When they were playing on the cruise ship, the springboard suddenly slid into the water, and the real daughter, who was distracted by watching the fun, fell directly into the water. Her name in the fishing village was Shen Xiaohe.
