First Lady of the Crown Prince

  Chapter 73 Door-to-door

  On the other side, Gu Houye stayed in Hot Spring Villa.

  Gu Houye was in an important position in the capital, and he could not leave for too long, but it was a matter of great importance. He had written to the second son of Beijing and asked him to enter the palace to take leave of his majesty on his behalf.

  Ordinary Marquis may not see his majesty, but who makes Gu Houye's sister be his majesty's favorite concubine? Therefore, it is not difficult for Gu Er Gongzi to enter the palace face saint.

   His Majesty knew about Gu Yan's situation. Gu Houye guessed that Gu Houye might not be well after he stayed. He let Gu Houye stay at the villa with peace of mind and take care of the family affairs.

  ...I just didn’t say to return to Beijing after handling Gu Yan’s funeral.

  Gu Houye knows nothing about his majesty’s inner drama, he is busy looking for the child back then.

  Gu Houye first found the stable wife who gave birth to the Yao family.

  Wen Po was invited from a nearby village. The scope of the search was not wide, and news soon came out.

  It’s just that the midwife’s family moved out many years ago. It is said that she received a large sum of money from the temple to deliver the nobles, and then settled down in the town.

  When Huang Zhong found the family, it was a pity that the midwife had passed away a few years ago, and her family knew very little about going to the temple to deliver the baby.

  Gu Hou's dead horse was used as a living horse doctor. He first found it from a nearby village and found some clues.

There are five children born in the temple, one of them is 18, one is 19, and the other is only seven. None of these three are the right ages. The remaining two are the right ages. They are all villagers at the foot of the mountain, and one is at the foot of the mountain. Xinghua Village, one in Qingquan Village.

  Gu Houye’s confidant guard went to Xinghua Village first, but found that the other party was a boy and the month was wrong.

  The baby was born in October, and the boy was born in August.

  In this way, only the child from Qingquan Village is left.

  If this is not right, they will have to look outside Qingquan Town, so that the scope of the search will be wider.

"Master Hou." The guard in charge of this investigation was called Huang Zhong, who was a confidant brought by Master Gu from the capital. He said, "Master Hou, Qingquan Village is not a village at the foot of the temple. They have all gone to the other side of the mountain. ,I am afraid…"

The possibility of    is not very great.

  Gu Houye also thought so, so he put Qingquan Village as the last investigation.

  He said: "You go and have a look first, then come back, don't let the news, if yes... I am waiting for you at the tea shop in the town."

"Yes."

  After Huang Zhong took the order, he immediately took a carriage to Qingquan Village.

  Huang Zhong is in his early forties, with a burly figure and a gentle face. He is a good person at first glance and can easily gain the trust of strangers.

   "That's Gu's baby!" said an uncle sitting in the sun in front of his house.

  This uncle is a little old, and his ears are dizzy, and he remembers that a baby in the Gu family was born in a temple.

  "Which Gu's family?" Huang Zhong asked.

  "Lizheng! Gu Lizheng!" The uncle waved his hand and pointed the way.

   Actually also surnamed Gu? What a coincidence.

  Huang Zhong thanked his uncle and drove the carriage to the old house of Gu’s family.

  Gu Dashun and Gu Xiaoshun have gone to school, and Gu Lizheng took Gu Changhai to the Yamen to pick up rice. Gu Changlu and Gu Ershun were sowing in the field in spring. Only Gu Yue'e and Wu's wife-in-law were in the family.

  Gu Yue'e opened the door.

  It’s not the first time that Gu Yue'e has seen a nobleman and a carriage, but she still stunned: "You, who are you looking for?"

  The country girl has never seen the world, and this reaction is normal. Huang Zhong smiled and said, "Is Gu Li here?"

  Gu Yue'e was afraid of talking to a strange man, turned her head and ran into the house: "Milk! Someone is looking for grandpa!"

  The three mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were chopping peppers in the backyard. Seeing Gu Yue'e running in a panic, Wu frowned impatiently: "Who is looking for your grandfather?"

  Gu Yue'e pointed backwards: "I don't know, I came in a big carriage."

  At first it sounded like a carriage, Wu's expression was different.

  Wu put down the kitchen knife in his hand, wiped his hand with a rag, and walked quickly to the door.

  Huang Zhong’s two-horse carriage was one more horse than the steward who sent the post to Gu Xiaoshun last time. Wu suddenly had a measure in his heart, and this person's identity was higher than the dean of the academy!

  But how come this kind of nobleman came to their house?

  Wu asked with a smile, "Who are you? What's the matter with me?"

   "My last name is Huang. I heard that your family has a child born in a temple. I want to inquire about that child."

  Wu’s smile disappeared suddenly.

   is looking for the little catastrophe, as long as you get involved with the little catastrophe, there is no good thing!

  Wu’s face was black and about to close the door, but Liu’s eyes flashed over, and he smiled and said: "Then you can’t inquire for nothing."

  Huang Zhong understood, his smile remained unchanged, and he took out a silver ingot from his arms.

The eyes of the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law went straight.

  Liu’s hand stretched out for it, but Wu took the silver one step ahead!

   Liu secretly gritted his teeth!

  Wu's face looked much better after receiving the money: "What are you going to ask? Ask!"

   "How old is that child? Is it a girl?"

   "Fourteen! Girl!"

  This time, Huang Zhong’s eyes lit up: "How many months were born?"

  This can stop Wu's question, a money-losing fool, who would bother to remember her birth date.

   Liu hurriedly said: "I, I, I, I know! Born in October!"

  She was just pregnant with Gu Xiaoshun that month, so she was very impressed.

   actually matched the month, Huang Zhong's heart began to excite: "What's the date?"

  "Seventeen or eighteen?" This Liu family can't remember well. It seems that no one except Gu Xiaoshun will remember Gu Jiao's birthday.

  The fetus of the dragon and phoenix was born on the 18th. These clues can be said to be very close.

  Huang Zhong held his excitement and continued to ask: "Which temple was born?"

   Liu pointed and said, "The temple on the other side of the mountain, where else?"

  At this time, Gu Changlu came out carrying a hoe.

  Liu clan waved at him: "Er Shun his father, was Jiao Niang born on the 18th or the 17th?"

   "Eighteen, what's the matter?" As Gu Changlu said, he looked at the man and the carriage in front of the door weirdly.

  Huang Zhong was overwhelmed with excitement, everything was right, it should be right.

  Unexpectedly, the child who has no hope at all is the child they are looking for!

  Gu Changlu came in next to Wu and Liu. At this time, Zhou also came out to watch the excitement.

  Only Gu Yue'e was timid, hiding in the back door of the hall and secretly looking over here.

  Huang Zhong’s excitement was a little bit too much to hide, Gu Changlu looked at him up and down, and asked Liu, "Why did you suddenly ask about Jiao Niang?"

  The Liu family pulled Gu Changlu aside, pointed to Wu’s pocket, and whispered: "He came to inquire about Jiao Niang and gave me a coin, but my mother took it all!"

  Gu Changlu stared at Liu, dissatisfied that Liu complained about his mother in this tone, but he did not agree with Wu’s approach.

  He walked to Wu's side and said, "Mother, we can't collect this silver."

   Wu tightly tightened his purse: "Why can't I take it away?"

  Gu Changlu glanced at Huang Zhong, and said, “I don’t know who he is, ask what Jiao Niang is doing? What if he is a bad guy and plots against Jiao Niang?”

  Wu is unhappy when he hears this, then the little catastrophe is doing her ass? It's dead clean, so the whole family will not be disturbed!
