Shang Zhi and Qin Yushuang looked at each other. Is there really a secret?

"Does my second brother have someone you like?" Shang Zhi asked.

Qin Yushuang felt that if someone he liked, Mrs. Gong would not be so embarrassed unless the woman had a secret information. She was not the kind of person who valued family background, but focused on a person's character.

"If there are people I like, I won't worry, and I will just do their marriage." Mrs. Gong's eyebrows were filled with sorrow and said in a casual manner. "The master went to Beijing to take the exam. There was also a merchant named Gu who was awarded the Jinshi exam, but he failed the exam. The master was sent to Qinghe County as the county magistrate and returned to his hometown with him. The master encouraged him on the road and resolved his frustration of failing the exam, so the relationship between the two families became closer."

"He gave birth to a pair of twin daughters and I had two sons. At that time, he said that the two families would become in-laws, but it was just a verbal agreement. Whether this in-laws can be successful depends on the fate of the children. As they grew up, the eldest son became a hermit and followed his master to study art in seclusion in the mountains and forests. Only the second son grew up by his side."

"Gong Xingchen's personality is very lively and cheerful, and is loved by the two sisters of the Gu family. When he was fourteen years old, he had a relationship with the eldest sister of the Gu family. The two families hit it off and got engaged to the two. However, half a year after the engagement, the eldest sister was gone and the marriage was abandoned. Just as the Gu family's business encountered setbacks, the family moved to Anyang Prefecture City, and they broke off contact from then on."

"He looked heartless and didn't know that worries and sorrows were actually just a stubbornness. Over the years, I thought he had let go. In the past two years, he had been muttering to see him in his ears. He was either interrupted or like this today, as he was right in front of his ears."

Mrs. Gong was very helpless. Gong Xingchen was only fourteen years old at that time. Even if he had feelings, he should have been a vague relationship between men and women. He would not be very deep. He should have forgotten it after five or six years.

Shang Zhi was surprised, but he did not expect that Gong Xingchen would have this past.

If Mrs. Gong hadn't said this, she wouldn't have known that this happened at all.

He never mentioned that there was a young girl who was unpredictable, but he was a little different to Shen Qiu.

"Since my second brother is unwilling to get married, maybe there are other hidden feelings in it, you can ask him." Shang Zhi thinks that the most important thing is to get along with a couple. Gong Xingchen is a responsible person. Although he looks uncontrollable and lacks intent, he is usually a stubborn person. "I think my second brother is very serious about his feelings. He may not have let go of the Gu girl. He may not have met the woman he likes, so he avoids talking about marriage."

"I hope." Mrs. Gong sometimes even told her sister to Gong Xingchen. Then she remembered that although Gong Xingchen grew up with the two sisters and had a closer relationship with her elder sister, she didn't like her second sister very much, so she stopped thinking.

Shang Zhi thought she could test Gong Xingchen.

Qin Yushuang felt that her feelings when she was young were very sincere, not dirty by the world, but pure and beautiful.

She was also at this age and had to marry Su Yuanjing.

In the end, it was just a lie.

Qin Yushuang felt a lot of emotion when she heard about Gong Xingchen and his young fiancée.

Shang Zhi came out of the house to find Gong Xingchen. He was sitting in the pavilion in the backyard. There were a few stones piled on the stone table. He took the stone and drifted it.

This is different from Shang Zhi’s brainstorm. She thought that Gong Xingchen was so sad that he should have drunk his sorrow?

"Do you want to drink?" Shang Zhi sat next to him.

Gong Xingchen put in a handsome position and threw the stone in his hand coolly. With a 'bang' sound, a circle of ripples appeared in the middle of the lotus pond. The stone sank and did not jump up on the water.

Shangzhi: "..."

Gong Xingchen: "..."

Gong Xingchen touched his nose and coughed twice, "I have to go to the dyeing workshop in the afternoon. Drinking is too bad. Do you want to drink, so I'll drink with you?"

"Okay, Shenzhi doesn't allow me to drink. Let's drink a little today." Shang Zhi hurriedly went to Mrs. Gong to ask for two jars of fruit wine. It's not easy to get drunk and it's easy to eat.

She held two wine bowls, filled them all, and pushed them in front of Gong Xingchen, "Do it!"

Gong Xingchen looked at the wine bowl in front of him and wrinkled his nose, "I won't drink it, I'll drink it with you."

Shangzhi: "..."

This is such a way to accompany you...

Shang Zhi wants to throw the bowl!

She doesn't want to drink!

But it's already full... Then do it!

Shang Zhi poured two bowls of wine in one breath and drank two bowls of wine in minutes.

Gong Xingchen admired and said, "Sister, you have a good alcohol tolerance. I will pour it down after a bowl. Do you still want to drink it?"

Shang Zhi glared at him, trying to hold the bowl in his hand on his head.

I felt that she was not stupid, but I was worried that Gong Xingchen would be sad and drank with him to relieve his sorrow!

With a "bang", I put the bowl on.

Shang Zhi narrowed his eyes and asked Gong Xingchen, "Second brother, what do you think of Shen Qiu?"

"It's very good." Gong Xingchen looked at Shang Zhi strangely, not knowing what she was doing, so he mentioned Shen Qiu.

Shang Zhi didn't know how to ask. She leaned on her chin and looked at Gong Xingchen with a puzzled look. She couldn't help asking: "I think you usually take good care of Shen Qiu. When you watch the lanterns during the New Year, you didn't go. When Shen Qiu went, you just followed her. When you were at 9th anniversary, you specially gave her a red envelope. I thought you were a little different to her."

"Where is different? She is an orphan of a martyr, a girl, how pitiful? She was sent to protect you again. Anyway, I recognize you as my sister, so take care of her!" Gong Xingchen said sadly: "You and Xue Shenzhi are in love with each other. Have you ever considered the feelings of me and Shen Qiu? We are so heartbroken. I am a man, of course I have to take care of the little girl's feelings."

Could it be that during the Chinese New Year, he only gave a red envelope to Shangzhi?

Shen Qiu has no relatives, and New Year's Day is the day when relatives reunite to stay up for the New Year. Shen Qiu may be sad. He only gave Shang Zhi alone, which was not suitable.

Shang Zhi's face turned black, he glanced at him and stood up and left.

Gong Xingchen scratched his head, not knowing where to make Shang Zhi unhappy.

——

Shang Zhi walked home, and Shen Qiu chopped firewood in the yard.

When Shen Qiu saw Shang Zhi coming back, he took Chai back to the miscellaneous room and told Shang Zhi what happened outside.

"I found out that the Empress and the Marquis of Xingning secretly fought. There seemed to be someone behind the Empress who was helping. The Marquis of Xingning had no room for a counterattack and retreated step by step." Shen Qiu felt that once the person who cooperated, he would be a life-and-death battle. The other party held his own evidence of guilt in his hand, which was a huge threat. This was very well reflected in the Queen and Xingning Hou. The Queen held the evidence of Xingning Hou in his hand, sorted out all his crimes and presented them to Emperor Jin of Yuan."

Shang Zhi was very surprised. How could the queen bit him with Xingning Hou?

King Yu is now a useless man, slid in bed and unable to take care of himself. Marquis Xingning chose another master, and it was not a betrayal to pose a threat to the queen. The two should be in peace. The two of them faced each other in a tit-for-tat way, which would only lead to both losses.

The queen was determined to avenge King Yu, so He stole the jade hairpin from her and should have complained to the queen. He broke his leg and sent a maid to monitor He. He just gave the jade hairpin to the queen, but there was no movement yet.

Instead, the queen and Xingning Hou Panji came!

"Is something else going on?" Shang Zhi felt that something else must have happened in the middle, which would make Xingning Hou and the Queen turn against each other.

Chen Qiu did find out some news and told Shang Zhi in detail, "There was a team of people attacking the old subordinates of King Yu. When the queen investigated, she found that it was from the Xingning Marquis' Mansion. After further investigation, there was news that the Xingning Marquis' Mansion had purchased horses and Zuimu. The queen believed that it was the Xingning Marquis's horses under the forage and plotted to murder King Yu. Because King Yu broke an arm and had no chance to be with the throne, the Xingning Marquis joined the King of Li, but at the time, the Xingning Marquis was the King of Yu and did not deal with King of Li. In order to win the trust of King of Li, the Xingning Marquis gave King of Yu as a generous gift to King of Li."

Shang Zhi was puzzled. She was the one who took action on Ma Zuimu. How did the queen find Xingning Hou’s head?

Suddenly, Shang Zhi suddenly realized that someone must be helping behind the scenes! It is estimated that the blame was to make the Queen fight with Xingning Hou, and they reap the benefits of the fisherman.

So who would this person be?

Shang Zhi couldn't think of it.

Chen Qiu said another thing, "He took away your jade hairpin and was taken away by Su Jingnian."

Shang Zhi frowned. The Su Jingnian she thought of was her gloomy eyes, which exuded contempt for her. Was he taking the jade hairpin to help her?

"I also found out that before He fell off the carriage, he was going to Yuxuan, and asked the master to make a hairpin like yours, and then send it to the queen to frame you. Then she had an accident and broke her leg and lay on the bed, but she still didn't give up and sent a maid to do business, and was blocked back." Chen Qiu felt that it was the Su family who was helping. No one except the Su family could control the movements in the Su family.

Shang Zhi fell into deep thought, and all this information pointed to the help of the people from the Su family.

Su Yuanjing was disliked by her and would not help her. Moreover, he was physically poisoned and had no energy to inquire about things outside.

Mr. Su Er had never met him. He was released as an official and was not in the capital. He could basically be ruled out.

Su Yi and Su Yue are all in the military camp, and they are beyond the reach.

Only Su Jingnian is left.
