Being a cannon fodder female supporting role is not as good as marrying a lucky villain
Chapter 16 The Scumbag's Confidante
The ship traveled for two full days and finally arrived at Yangzhou Pier.
Yangzhou is the only way from Chuzhou to Jiangning, and it is the most prosperous and lively place in Jiangnan besides Jiangning.
Since it was for fun, it was natural to visit several famous state capitals.
The eldest princess ordered to rest in Yangzhou, and the ship docked here.
There were already people waiting on the shore. It turned out that Lu Zhizhou of Yangzhou got the news and was waiting here early.
"I have met the eldest princess, His Royal Highness Prince Duan!" He stepped forward quickly and saluted to the eldest princess and Chu Yunyi.
Then he bowed to Gu Ning and said, "I have met the Lord of Changning County."
"The princess and the county lord have traveled a long way, and the official has already prepared the house, just waiting for you two to move in."
When he spoke, he frequently looked at the eldest princess and ignored Chu Yunyi.
The eldest princess, who had always been aloof, was also very kind to Lu Zhizhou and accepted Lu Zhizhou's kindness without hesitation.
Something interesting...
Seeing the coldness in Chu Yunyi's eyes, Gu Ning realized something. She narrowed her peach blossom eyes slightly, and a sly gaze moved in her eyes.
It seems that Lu Zhizhou is from the camp of the eldest princess, and maybe he is an old subordinate of the former prince!
She deliberately took a step behind and followed Chu Yunyi's figure with her eyes.
"Chunyu, what I asked you to do..."
"Don't worry, County Lord, all the servants have taken care of it for you." Chunyu lowered her voice, "The person who sent the letter has already gone to Xinghua Tower and will definitely investigate the matter for you."
Gu Ning nodded with satisfaction, and his steps suddenly became brisk.
The girl Qingqing in Xinghua Tower, who is known as the number one courtesan in Jiangnan, is Chu Yunyi's confidante.
If it was just this level of identity, Gu Ning wouldn't need to investigate too much, but this girl Qing Qing's identity was somewhat special.
She was so devoted to Chu Yunyi that she even sacrificed her own body to build connections for Chu Yunyi and get information. It can be said that Chu Yunyi's intelligence network in Jiangnan was centered on her.
And when she was with Chu Yunyi, she naturally wanted something.
What I am seeking... is the position of a concubine.
She is extremely possessive of Chu Yunyi. Among the several women who competed with Gu Qingqiu for Chu Yunyi in the original book, she is the one with the most fighting power!
Being jealous is the best way for her to get rid of Chu Yunyi!
The outcome is very clear as to whether he is a good-for-nothing and his confidant is more important.
Thinking of this, the smile on Gu Ning's lips deepened a lot, and the pear dimples were looming.
Every part of the house arranged by Lu Zhizhou is exquisite and has a graceful Jiangnan style.
Gu Ning got off the carriage and stared at the house for a long time.
In fact, as the system said, her coming to this world was not all bad. At least she took advantage of the public expense travel.
Besides, Mr. Lu’s arrangement cannot be bought with money.
"Is the County Lord still satisfied?"
Seeing her not speaking for a long time, Lu Zhizhou asked worriedly.
"Master Lu is very attentive." Gu Ning said softly, "I like it very much."
"It is the greatest honor for a lower official to be liked by the county master." Mr. Lu smiled and immediately turned his attention to the eldest princess.
It wasn't until the eldest princess nodded slightly to show satisfaction that he breathed a sigh of relief.
Everyone knows that the Lord of Changning County is the treasure that the eldest princess holds in the palm of her hand. Even if she is slighting the eldest princess, she cannot belittle the Lord of Changning County. Otherwise, his position as the governor of the state will be over.
Chu Yunyi stood aside and took in everything.
It is clear that he is the prince and has the most noble status, but the eldest princess is respected by everyone, simply because of the army in her hands.
If one day, he can control that army...
When he looked up at Gu Ning again, his eyes were full of ambition.
Get her!
…
With the arrival of the eldest princess, the peaceful Yangzhou suddenly became excited.
When Yangzhou was recaptured, it was Princess Da Chang who personally led the troops and defeated the previous enemy army.
Even a three-year-old child has heard about the deeds of the eldest princess.
As the granddaughter of the eldest princess, Gu Ning's name gradually spread.
In Xinghua Tower, several maids on duty were excitedly discussing the rumors in the city in recent days.
"I heard that the Lord of Changning County and Prince Duan are childhood sweethearts. The eldest princess is waiting to marry the Lord of Changning County when Prince Duan establishes a crown prince!"
"I don't know what the princess of Changning County looks like that can make Prince Duan fall in love with her!"
"What do you all know? The Lord of Changning County is an empty-headed idiot who is not proficient in playing, playing, chess, calligraphy or painting. How could Prince Duan like such a woman?"
The person who interrupted the discussion between the two unhappily was a little maid with a round face. She had a delicate appearance, but the fierce look in her eyes made her delicate face as sinister as a Rakshasa.
The two people who were talking hurriedly lowered their heads, with a look of fear on their faces.
"alright."
At this time, a soft female voice sounded, and a woman opened the bead curtain and walked out of the room.
She was extremely beautiful, especially the faint charm between her eyebrows, which added to her appearance. When she appeared, the luxury in the room seemed to dim a bit.
"I've met Miss Qingqing!"
When the two maids saw her, they were even more frightened than before. They fell to their knees and kept kowtowing to beg for mercy.
"My slave is guilty! My slave is guilty!"
As they spoke, they hit themselves in the face.
Seeing the red marks appearing on their cheeks, Miss Qingqing said calmly: "Okay, we women in Xinghua House, even if they are maids, we have to protect our faces."
"If this doesn't happen again, please step back."
Her words made the two maids feel like they had been granted amnesty. They thanked her profusely and left quickly.
The round-faced maid had a cold face and said bitterly: "Girl, you shouldn't be soft-hearted! They are just two maids, just kill them and throw them into a mass grave."
"Feiyun!"
Miss Qingqing shouted coldly, and Feiyun immediately shut up.
"He doesn't like to see blood." She said, with a touch of tenderness on her face, "He finally came to Jiangnan, and I can't ruin his interest."
Hearing this, Feiyun held his breath, but never expressed what was in his heart.
She knew that her girl had a deep affection for that person, so how could she be disappointed in that person just because of her few words?
Just as Feiyun was about to leave, she heard Miss Qingqing's charming voice behind her: "Go and check the Changning County Lord's schedule for tomorrow."
Feiyun was stunned immediately, and the next moment she turned around hurriedly and said in panic: "Girl, do you want to kill the head of Changning County? Is there a master protecting her..."
"I said, he doesn't like to see blood, so how could I kill the Changning County Lord? I just want to see what this rumored Changning County Lord... looks like?"
Miss Qingqing's words sent a chill down Feiyun's spine.
She had the same tone when she personally killed the woman who seduced Prince Duan.
But as Miss Qingqing looked at her, she hurriedly responded: "Slave, I'll do it now."
…
Jiangning.
As the largest and most prosperous state capital in the south of the Yangtze River, Jiangning's folk customs are open and open. Whether they are blond businessmen from the Western Regions or foreigners from the sea, they all seem to be ordinary in Jiangning.
It is precisely because of this that Qiu Yun and her son can hide in the crowd and live a stable life.
After sarcastically scolding the family who came to the door, Qiu Yun raised her chin proudly, like a victorious rooster, and closed the door with her head held high.
A boy of thirteen or fourteen years old, with a face as swollen as a pig's head, was leaning against the door frame. He looked vaguely handsome, but the lustful aura in his eyes was very inconsistent with his age and seemed a bit abnormal.
Seeing Qiu Yun returning home victorious, he said disdainfully: "I just touched my hand a few times, but they refused to let me go and came to ask for an explanation! It's really ridiculous!"
Hearing this, Qiu Yun immediately touched the wound on his face distressedly and spat bitterly: "My son is so innocent, that girl must have deliberately seduced you and wanted to take the opportunity to ask for some silver!"
The young man was smiling, but now he became impatient: "How long has it been, why hasn't my father sent me any money? Doesn't he know that our orphans and widowed mothers are living a very difficult life here?"
"Even if I want to have a drink..."
Before he could finish speaking, the door was knocked again.
Qiu Yun looked displeased: "Could it be that shameless family again..."
"lady."
Hearing this familiar voice, Qiu Yun immediately changed her expression and said with a smile: "It must be your father who sent Sheng Yu to bring the money!"
She opened the door happily, and what she saw was the dusty Sheng Yu.
As soon as he saw Qiu Yun, Sheng Yu said hoarsely: "Madam, hurry up and pack your luggage and leave Jiangnan with me!"
"You're all right, why do you want to leave Jiangnan?" Qiu Yun's face was unhappy, but she became happy the next moment, "Could it be that Gu Lang has organized the capital and wants to take me into the capital?"
After hearing this, Sheng Yu's face suddenly twitched.
Seeing Qiu Yun's expectant face, he couldn't help but interrupt her fantasy: "Madam, I am not taking you to Beijing, but asking you to go to Yuezhou!"
"Why?" Qiu Yun lost her voice, "Why do you want me to go to Yuezhou? I am living well in Jiangning..."
"If you don't leave, I'm afraid it will be too late!" Sheng Yu said quickly, "If the eldest princess finds out about your existence... I'm afraid you and the young master will both die!"
Speaking of this, Sheng Yu quickly grabbed Qiu Yun's hand and said eagerly: "You'd better come with me to Yuezhou as soon as possible!"
Ignoring Qiu Yun's struggle, he ordered the servants behind him to come in and directly carried Qiu Yun into the carriage.
At this moment, the young boy was also covered by someone's mouth and nose, and they were stuffed into the carriage together. They moved so fast that others had no time to react, and they saw the carriage drive away.
Just to the side, several people were staring at the movement here.
They looked at each other, one continued to follow the carriage, and the other quickly left here and went to Yangzhou to deliver the message.
After following him all the way for so many days, he finally caught them!
You must inform the eldest princess about this matter as soon as possible! Otherwise, it will be too late!
