Rebirth of marriage

As expected, Xie Jiu was not too disappointed. She asked what she was concerned about, "How will the emperor deal with him?"

This was the first time she mentioned the emperor in front of Gu Xiao.

Gu Xiao said lightly, "When he came to power, he had to rely on the Cao family, and many things could not avoid the Cao family's involvement. The Cao family has been through three generations of monarchs, and the relationship between the DPRK and China is intricate.

Taking advantage of the opportunity to support him, the Cao family quickly grew from a big tree into a forest, with roots deeply embedded in the imperial power and various ministries of the court. By the time he realized that it was difficult to grasp the power, it was already too late.

If he wants to completely eradicate the Cao family, he must also damage his own bones, and even damage the foundation of Daxia.

Therefore, he will not touch the Cao family easily, but he will most likely use this opportunity to take back some rights from the Cao family. "

Gu Xiao's face was calm and emotionless, as if he was someone who had nothing to do with him.

He continued, "According to the account of the Cao family guard who went out from the mountain, Cao Zhicheng believed that all this was done by that person, so he hurried back to the capital."

Xie Jiu didn't hide his gloating, "That's good too."

Because of Gu Xiao, she felt a little disgusted with the emperor. Cao Shoufu hurt his son, so it would not be unfair to ask him to take the blame for her.

Speaking of that person, Gu Xiao thought of the Sheriff's request two days ago, raised his eyebrows and said in a deep voice, "The Sheriff wants to settle the case of the Sheriff's wife as soon as possible, Mrs. Liu, do you still want to stay?"

Xie Jiu shook his head, "You should kill someone to pay for your life."

It was no longer of much use whether Liu would stay or not, but Xie Jiu thought that the county guard was in a hurry to deal with Liu, probably because he wanted to put aside his old friend and marry a new one earlier. His behavior would remind Gu Xiao of the emperor's ruthless abandonment of them. Mother and son, about marrying Queen Cao.

She changed the subject and told him that people from the Lu family spread the news that Cao Chief Fu was colluding with Di Rong in the capital. Finally, she said, "I promise Lu Hongyuan that if this matter is handled well, I will give him a big gift."

"What gift?"

Xie Jiu considered it carefully, "The last time the third prince sent people to massacre them made them realize that the future of the Lu family is to return to the capital, so I would like to ask the old censor to accept Lu Zhuo as a close disciple?"

She originally had other plans, but in the past few days she felt that the idea was very good.

The old censor was deeply trusted by the emperor and had prestige among the people. He could stay in the censor's office for a lifetime, not to mention his knowledge and strategies. If Lu Zhuo could get his guidance and be recommended by him in the future, he would surely make many detours.

Although Lu Zhuo was not showing off at the moment, she knew about his abilities in his previous life. This piece of jade would definitely be carved into a weapon in the hands of the old censor.

Xie Jiu lowered her eyes, and the fierceness in her eyes was hidden. She could not kill the third prince for the time being, but she could capture his past life's help in her hands, and he would be used by Gu Xiao in the future, and those like the Cao family who could not win over, nor did they bother to win over. It can only be destroyed.

Now that Gu Xiao's love for her has been confirmed, she will reveal her true self little by little at the appropriate opportunity. In the future, when they are connected, they can also be honest.

The old censor had a relationship with Gu Xiao, so she decided to ask his opinion on this matter.

Gu Xiao looked down at her, paused for a few breaths, and asked, "Is this arrangement related to something you can't explain yet?"

Xie Jiu nodded and decided to reveal something, "Ah Xiao, I have some enemies, and they are very powerful to me now."

In fact, she felt that Gu Xiao, as smart as she was, had already guessed something. If she didn't have a big plan, why would an ordinary woman need to earn so much money and set up Jiuxiao Pavilion to collect news from all over the world.

Gu Xiao's arm holding her suddenly tightened.

After the Yang family was sentenced to exile, the servants of the Yang family were re-sold. Xie Jiu's former maid was bought back to the Xie Mansion by Xie's father. The two people he stayed with in the Xie family asked her to find out a lot about Xie Jiu's relationship with Yang. What life was like in the backyard during those years.

She lived a very ordinary life as a widow without leaving the front door or stepping outside the door. She was occasionally made things difficult for her by the Yang family, but she didn't encounter any major problems.

He didn't know when Xie Jiu had an enemy. That enemy was so powerful that she needed to arrange people in the court. Her proficiency with needles could not be achieved overnight. She could climb over walls instead of just digging into dog holes like before. She Killing the Yang family's men without changing her expression, all the things she did to the Yang family...

"Are you thanking me for drinking?" he asked suddenly, his face solemn.

She has changed so much from before.

Xie Jiu was startled, but then she understood what he meant. She felt a little uneasy in her heart, but soon she felt confident. She pinched his face with both hands and pulled him to both sides, and said sweetly, "Do you think I am Xie Jiu? There are still people in this world. Do you know better?"

Of course she was thanking the wine, she was just reborn, nothing else.

Gu Xiao suddenly remembered that a few years ago, a drunkard pinched his face like this and said something daring.

He was suddenly relieved.

Perhaps somewhere he couldn't find out, she had experienced something that made her different from before. Who in this world would stay the same?

She was right. No one in the world knew better than him whether she was thanking the wine. His fingers rubbed a place on her lower abdomen. Very few people would have a red mole there. Five years ago, he took a quick glance and remembered it. In the morning He even kissed her.

He suddenly didn't want to be serious anymore, so he grabbed her over, sat on his lap, pressed the back of her head and kissed her hard.

After a long time, he picked up the person and threw him on the bed, then pressed him on top and said meaningfully, "I won't know until you test it."

Afterwards, Xie Jiu bit his jaw angrily, using a lot of force, leaving a deep red tooth mark.

Gu Xiao squinted and touched the tooth mark. It probably wouldn't be gone away tomorrow.

Xie Jiu made a preemptive strike, "You are not serious, you talk nonsense, you are like a goblin that sucks people's energy..."

If you keep me from getting out of bed, I'll keep you from seeing people. Let's see if you can restrain yourself from now on, Xie Jiu thought mischievously. At the same time, she also understood that Gu Xiao's suspicion was dispelled.

She didn't want to hide it from him, but she couldn't talk about rebirth, at least not right now.

"Are your teeth sore?" Gu Xiao pulled her into his arms and interrupted her far-fetched words.

Xie Jiu didn't expect this reaction from him, and said sarcastically, "It's not sour."

Then she said coquettishly, "My body is sore."

Everywhere, especially her thighs, ached terribly, but she also knew that Gu Xiao's current lack of restraint was due to the hot feelings deep in his heart.

"I'll massage it for you." Gu Xiao laid her down and massaged her gently but forcefully. Lu Zhuo agreed to accept the old censor as his disciple.

However, he asked, "Do you think highly of him?"

He really didn't see anything special about Lu Zhuo.

Xie Jiu's soreness was relieved, she closed her eyes to rest, and said softly, "He will become a great person."

The rating is not low.

Gu Xiao's hand paused slightly, thinking of the scene where he held an umbrella for her, and the ridiculous idea that he had had to marry Xie Jiu to him, he rubbed his hand somewhere.

Xie Jiu was frightened and quickly opened his eyes to look at him.

Gu Xiao pursed her lips and kept moving her hands, "You are not allowed to be alone with him in the future."

"I'll try my best." Xie Jiu felt that someone had pinched her 'weak spot', and she didn't want to bear it again. Although she didn't reject it in her heart, her body didn't allow it.

She softened her voice and said, "Now that the snow has stopped, I have to go to the nearby city to find the coal mountains as soon as possible and take them under my own name. I promised to take him with me when searching for the coal mountains."

Moreover, [-]% of Meishan's profits are recorded in the name of his maternal ancestor's family, the Xu family. Yuyouguan is your territory and others dare not make any decisions. If I want to use the Xu family's name elsewhere, this will inevitably require Lu Zhuo's intervention. "

Gu Xiao instantly understood that she wanted to use the Xu family's method to win over the Xu family.

The head of the Xu family, Lu Zhuo's maternal grandfather, is currently the Minister of Household Affairs, second only to the Minister of Household Affairs, and his official position is not low.

Gu Xiao couldn't help but think deeply. How high up was Xie Jiu's enemy?
