Being a cannon fodder female supporting role is not as good as marrying a lucky villain
Chapter 30 Changes in the Situation
Overnight, the situation in Jiangning was turned upside down.
As soon as the news came out that Jiang Zhizhou had assassinated the head of Changning County, the streets and alleys were abuzz. And the news that he sent people to search for beauties from all over the country and imprisoned them in Jiangning was also widely spread among the storytellers in various teahouses under Gu Ning's deliberate guidance.
.
When several important families in Jiangning learned about this, they could only rejoice in the misfortune.
Jiang Zhizhou had been in Jiangning for many years, and he was just a slave to the common people, but local powerful families like them were often raided by Jiang Zhizhou.
Relying on the Jiang family behind him, he was extremely arrogant, and now he met the head of Changning County, who had a deeper background than him, which was karma.
Gu Ning waited in the other courtyard for several days. Instead of waiting for the Yuan and Ling families to attack, many posts came, including an invitation from Mrs. Yuan's family.
"I didn't expect their relationship to be so plastic." Gu Ning threw the post aside and rolled his eyes angrily.
The system whispered: "They don't take you seriously."
Gu Ning snorted coldly, and the system suddenly did not dare to speak. It only dared to remind him hesitantly: "Host, your luck value has been stagnant in the past few days. If this continues, the automatic withdrawal function may be automatically turned on again.
Already."
"If you don't have your goals, how can your luck increase?" Gu Ning gritted his teeth.
But being familiar with the nature of the system, she quickly noticed a clue in the system's attitude.
With a slightly cold expression, she read through all the plots about Jiangnan in the original book, and finally her keen eyes fell on the post sent by the original family.
"I still have to go to this banquet of the Yuan family."
The original book clearly stated that this banquet of the Yuan family was Mrs. Yuan's 60th birthday. All the wealthy families in the south of the Yangtze River sent people to congratulate her. Pei Anlin also sent people to obtain the gift from the Yuan family during this banquet.
Evidence of illegal salt trafficking. According to the description in the book, Pei Anlin's men suffered serious losses for this operation. Even Pei Anlin himself had one of his legs crippled before Chu Yunyi arrived with his troops.
Due to his own promotion, he was the one invited to the birthday banquet in the original book.
But based on Pei Anlin's emphasis on Xie Yan and Xie Yan's own strength, Xie Yan will definitely take action during this birthday banquet.
"Heavy losses..." Gu Ning muttered these four words, and a strange light burst out from his beautiful eyes.
Now that she has thousands of elite soldiers, she will definitely not let the tragedy in the original book happen again.
By attending the birthday banquet, she can not only preserve the strength of the Pei family, but also gain Xie Yan's trust!
…
The matter of Jiang Zhizhou sending people to assassinate Gu Ning was quickly brought before the imperial court.
"The Jiang family!" The emperor's face was gloomy, with a hint of sinisterness appearing on his elegant face, "They are quite courageous! In order to cover up those scandals, they dared to assassinate Ning'er!"
In front of him, several men in official uniforms were kneeling on the ground.
The cold ground did not relieve their tension at all, and they replied in a low voice: "This is the news that just came from Jiangning. It seems...it seems that this matter was done by Jiang Zhizhou alone."
"Are the crimes stated in the letter true?"
The emperor's deep voice sounded in the palace, and several people immediately fell to the ground.
"These are all messages sent through secret messages. They must be true."
"What a great Jiang Zhizhou!" The emperor sneered, "What a great Jiang family! If Ning'er hadn't happened to save those women, I'm afraid they would have kept these things a secret! As the lord of the world, I,
They have been kept in the dark for many years!"
A few people didn't dare to show their anger, and the hall was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
After waiting for a long time, the emperor calmly said: "Don't get involved in this matter for the time being. We will deal with it after Pei Anlin returns to Beijing."
"yes!"
As if they had received an amnesty, they quickly exited the Tai Chi Hall.
In the hall, a hunched body walked out of the secret door.
"Old Yu, I'm afraid I need you to go to Jiangning for me this time." The emperor was very calm, "I, these ministers, are a little pedantic after all. The Jiangning matter is not that simple."
"Don't worry, Your Majesty." The old man smiled sinisterly, with a sinister smile showing at the corner of his eyes, "When I go to Jiangning, I will definitely investigate this matter clearly for you."
Just when the old man was about to leave, the emperor asked again: "Be sure to pay attention to the movements of Pei Anlin and the eldest princess at all times. After so many years, I still..."
"Don't worry, if I take action, all the monsters and demons will appear!"
After hearing what the old man said, the emperor finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The palace calmed down again. The emperor looked at the empty hall in front of him and seemed to recall what happened a long time ago. In his eyes, wisps of murderous intent slowly took shape.
…
"What?" Gu Zhiyuan almost jumped up when he heard the news from Jiang Ning.
Fortunately, he realized that there were still Gu Qingqiu and Gu Yunwan around him, so he could barely maintain his previous image.
Gu Qingqiu said softly: "Uncle, Sun Yu likes to gamble. He always hangs around the fireworks place. He is really not a good match for Yun Wan."
"Uncle!" Gu Yunwan knelt on the ground, looking at him with tears in her eyes, "Please save me! I am also the daughter of the Gu family, how can I marry such a person?"
Gu Zhiyuan naturally did not want Gu Yunwan to marry Sun Yu, but thinking of Pei Anlin's instructions, his shaken heart became firm again: "Yun Wan, it's not that I'm cruel, it's really... the story between you and Sun Yu
All over the capital, even if you don't marry Sun Yu, who can you marry? Besides, the Gu family has several daughters waiting to be married, if it's because of you alone..."
"Uncle!" Gu Yunwan interrupted him loudly, "What you said was passed down by the Pei family! But the Pei family is the Pei family, how can you interfere in our family's affairs? You are the Gu family's
Owner!"
Hearing this, Gu Zhiyuan looked stern.
But every word Gu Yunwan said spoke exactly to his heart.
Yes! He, Gu Zhiyuan, is the master of the Gu family!
Why could Gu Ning, a white-eyed wolf, use the power of the Pei family to force him?
At this time, Gu Qingqiu said softly: "Uncle, General Pei is not in the capital either. Why don't you... why don't you tell your aunt about this."
"My aunt is kind-hearted and listens to your words. She will not watch Yun Wan enter the Sun family's den of tigers and wolves!"
Gu Qingqiu's words made Gu Zhiyuan feel comfortable physically and mentally.
"That's right." He nodded, "The princess does listen to me the most."
As long as he says a word, Anyang will definitely agree to this matter.
Thinking of this, he waved his hands towards the two of them: "Okay, you all go back. I will send a letter to the palace to ask the princess to return to Beijing early and make decisions for you."
Gu Yunwan was overjoyed, knelt on the ground, and bowed heavily to Gu Zhiyuan: "Thank you, uncle!"
The two left the study, and the smile on Gu Qingqiu's face disappeared.
She shook off Gu Yunwan's hand and said word by word: "I have done everything you asked me to do. From now on, we will write it off!"
But before she had even taken two steps, she heard Gu Yunwan behind her say angrily: "Sister, you are so majestic."
"But I think so." Gu Yunwan smiled and said full of malice, "You are my uncle's biological daughter. He will naturally listen to everything you say. No, even if I say thousands of words, it can't be compared.
Just say something."
Gu Qingqiu's pair of almond-shaped eyes suddenly turned red.
She stepped forward quickly and covered Gu Yunwan's mouth: "What are you talking about!"
Gu Yunwan chuckled lightly, without any fear, and looked directly at her: "Sister, if you want people to keep secrets, you should give them some benefits."
"Isn't this enough?" Gu Qingqiu gritted his teeth and said, "I have settled the matter of marrying Sun Yu for you, what else do you want from me?"
"I am just a concubine. I am not as good as my elder sister. I have the love of my aunt and the protection of my real father." Gu Yunwan said quietly, "For my own sake, I have to take this step."
Gu Yunwan's words made Gu Qingqiu even more uneasy.
She gritted her teeth and her eyes gradually became cold: "Just say what you have to say!"
"I want to marry Prince Duan." Gu Yunwan said simply, "My requirements are not high. My sister is the concubine, and I only need the position of a concubine."
After saying that, she smiled gently at Gu Qingqiu.
"You!" Gu Qingqiu pointed at her, his face flushed with anger, "My status is very different from Gu Ning's. Even if Gu Ning can't marry His Highness, how can I, with such a low status, marry His Highness and be a good person?
Concubine?"
"Sister, don't belittle yourself." Gu Yunwan said with a smile, "You have more than that. Look how much His Highness Duan Wang cares about you. Even in Jiangnan, he never forgets to send you some clothes and jewelry."
"You have such a good method, why can't you fly up a branch and become a phoenix?" Gu Yunwan whispered in her ear, "What's more, you have your biological father helping you behind the scenes..."
"Shut up!" Gu Qingqiu stared at her coldly, his gentle expression fading away.
Seeing this, Gu Yunwan didn't panic. She just straightened the messy hair at her temples and said briskly: "Sister, there is no need to look at me like this. If I am frightened, I don't know what I will say."
Gu Qingqiu's delicate face was distorted for a moment, and finally she suppressed the anger in her heart and said word by word: "I promise you."
…
Jiangning Mansion.
The streets are very lively and the sound of firecrackers can be heard everywhere.
The carriage drove slowly on the busy streets. Unlike the busy streets, the carriage was very quiet inside.
Xie Yan half-closed his eyes and put the long sword on his knees. No matter how wild the look across from him, his face remained calm.
Gu Ning looked at Xie Yan over and over again, from his handsome face to the skin under his Adam's apple.
She suddenly chuckled and moved closer to Xie Yan.
Before Xie Yan could speak, a slender white finger had already been placed on his lips.
"Let me guess, what is the purpose of Guard Xie accompanying me to the dinner at Yuan's house this time?"
This finger is as soft as boneless, and the delicate touch on the lips all expresses the woman's presence.
Suddenly, the fingertips slid down from his lips to his Adam's apple.
Xie Yan's eyelids twitched and he firmly held the white wrist.
