After Gu Tingye left, Shen shi came out from behind the screen looking flustered, holding a short sword in her hand. She was afraid Gu Tingye would harm Qi Heng. Qi Heng hurriedly snatched the short sword away. He was very grateful for what Shen shi did, and at the same time, he confessed to Shen shi that Sheng Minglan was the person he had originally intended to marry.
Shen shi smiled slightly, saying there was no need to mention past events, but she wanted to hear them. Shen shi's expression changed in an instant; it was better not to listen after all. Xiao Qin shi sent someone to invite Bai Dalang to the capital. Bai Dalang originally didn't want to go, after all, he nearly lost half his life the last time he went to the capital.
But as soon as he heard that Gu Tingye had killed someone, and it was an official's family member, he immediately changed his mind and went to the capital. The Empress Dowager wanted to raise Consort Liu's child Yong'er in her own palace. Consort Liu panicked as soon as she heard this; she needed to think it over carefully. Returning to her palace, Consort Liu remained silent and drank a lot of wine.
Suddenly, Consort Liu smashed her wine cup, hardened her heart, and carried the crying Yong'er to the Empress Dowager's palace, letting him enjoy the Empress Dowager's affection. The child had drunk milk and was now sleeping soundly. Nanny Chang, while holding him, said that Gu Tingye was very attentive to this child. Sheng Minglan, however, said with a hint of jealousy, "He is attentive; he's still repairing Qian Fengxian's house now."
Qian Fengxian's courtyard had been burned down and was drafty everywhere. She was now pitifully begging Gu Tingye to arrange a place for her. Gu Tingye, however, acted as if he hadn't heard, telling Shitou to find the origin of the fire, then left, not arranging a new place for her at all.
Back in the room, Gu Tingye was about to get a good look at his son, but Sheng Minglan asked him how the house repairs were going and suggested settling Qian Fengxian in their courtyard first. Gu Tingye tacitly agreed. Sheng Minglan got annoyed as soon as she heard this and silently told Gu Tingye to stay away from her son. Gu Tingye was momentarily stunned before bursting into laughter.
He had originally intended to use this opportunity to send Qian Fengxian away, but then he thought that since Sheng Minglan had arranged for her to be a concubine, she would at least have a title, and besides, the courtyard didn't lack food for her. Sheng Minglan subtly retorted, first saying there were many matters in the Marquis's residence, then saying Gu Tingye smelled bad, which made Gu Tingye laugh heartily.
Gu Tingye said that he was jealous of Qi Heng every day, but now it was good; it was finally Sheng Minglan's turn to be jealous of him. Sheng Minglan was very displeased. She didn't let Xiao Tao change Gu Tingye's clothes and called Shitou in to replace Xiao Tao. Xiao Qin shi's mama was very dissatisfied with Qian Fengxian.
Qian Fengxian felt very wronged; when she was originally forced upon Gu Tingye, everything was promised to be wonderful, but after coming here, she hadn't even seen Gu Tingye many times. Although he came more frequently after the fire, it was only to check on how the bricklayers were doing. Xiao Qin shi was also dissatisfied with Qian Fengxian. As soon as she heard that Consort Liu had come to bestow favors, she hurried back.
After receiving the favors, she learned that Old Lady Wang often visited the Empress Dowager. Gu Tingwei was about to leave, not wanting to stay in the residence for dinner. Xiao Qin shi was very disappointed and planned to find a time to enter the palace to thank Consort Liu. Zhao Ceying suggested reclaiming the borderlands. Zhao Zongquan was very displeased, thinking it was Gu Tingye's idea, and his suspicions towards both of them deepened.
Bai Dalang was dressed as a servant by Xiao Qin shi and brought into the palace. She herself went to Consort Liu's palace, and the two of them spoke many words, both openly and covertly. Bai Dalang, on the other hand, was received by the eunuch beside the Empress Dowager. The eunuch told him to bring some of his family's salt for Consort Liu to taste the next time he entered the palace.
On the carriage back to the residence, Bai Dalang told Xiao Qin shi what had happened. Xiao Qin shi felt increasingly uneasy; even Yong'er was being raised in the Empress Dowager's palace, so it seemed Consort Liu must also have designs on the Crown Prince's position. As soon as she returned to the residence, Xiao Qin shi learned that the Fourth Household had arrived. Gu Tingye and Zhao Ceying met for a drink.
He said that he had killed Aunt Kang a few days ago. Zhao Ceying was stunned. " But I haven't heard any rumors these past few days?" Gu Tingye was also a little surprised. He had thought Old Lady Wang would go to file a complaint with the Emperor the next day. He was afraid they wanted to clench all their fingers into a single fist to exert maximum power.
Gu Tingbing had killed someone on the way to exile, which was why the Fourth Household came to plead with Xiao Qin shi, but Xiao Qin shi had no intention of interfering.
