She knew that her background as a merchant made Nan Xingzhi, who was the prime minister, embarrassed.

He felt that she was no longer worthy of him. If it weren't for the relationship between Nan Xi and Gu Qingshu, she, the wife of a merchant, might have resigned long ago - Oh no, he might have persisted for a while longer. Because she still held huge wealth in her hands, he hinted many times, openly or secretly, that she should hand over several shops in the capital to his concubines to manage, euphemistically saying that it was time for her to enjoy a rest.

Mrs. Nan just wanted to give him a slap in the face.

It is said that there is no businessman without treachery.

But she, a woman with a serious business background, was cunning and shameless in front of Nan Xingzhi, but she was willing to be inferior. But she's not hopelessly stupid, her husband is unreliable, and she has a daughter.

Her daughter was a piece of flesh that fell from her body, and was her last relative in this world. She loved her as much as a treasure, and no one could take away her inheritance except her daughter.

Nan Xingzhi wants to take advantage of her shop?

I'm afraid that if she hands over the shop, she will propose the favored concubine in the house as his wife. Do you really think she doesn't know what he is planning?

Over the years, Mrs. Nan has seen through Nan Xingzhi's character, and in her opinion, Gu Qingshu is the same.

If he really likes Xi'er, then he should rely on his own ability to seek a bright future. What kind of ability does a manly man rely on his father-in-law's power and wealth to get promoted and make a fortune?

I'm afraid that in the future, a highly respected minister will also abandon his wretched wife and become romantically involved.

"I didn't do anything." Nan Xi spoke in a calm and steady tone, "The news that Nan Yue stabbed me has been spread outside. I was afraid that my parents would be worried, so I asked the regent to let me come back and stay with my mother for a few days. sky."

As she spoke, she pointed to Yin Yue and Yin Shuang who were standing outside, "The regent also sent someone to protect me."

Protect?

Gu Qingshu's heart moved slightly, wondering whether it was protection or supervision?

Nan Xi's tone and attitude of speaking today are very different from before. Did she mean to tell the two maids outside?

If this is the case, it can be explained.

Nan Xiang had the same idea as him. He glanced at the two maids outside calmly and said calmly: "Did the Regent treat you harshly?"

"No, the regent is very good to me." Nan Xi said, "Father, please rest assured."

really.

Gu Qingshu breathed a sigh of relief. How much did Nan Xi hate the regent before? How could you say something good about him?

So these words were deliberately spoken to the two people outside.

But Gu Qingshu's mood was still a little gloomy.

The fact that Nan Yue was sent to his residence left him speechless. He had just arrived at the Prime Minister's residence, and rumors were already spreading outside.

Qingyang, the bodyguard of the Regent's Palace, directly arranged for several people to spread the news that the Prime Minister's daughter Nanyue brought a dagger to the Regent's Palace. On the grounds of the deep love between sisters, she hoped that her sister would allow her and her mother to enter the Prime Minister's Palace to recognize their ancestors. , Nan Xi only said to think about it, but Nan Yue stabbed her biological sister with a dagger when she disagreed.

Fortunately, the regent came to the rescue, otherwise the dignified daughter of the prime minister's palace would have died.

The rumor spread from one to another, and it evolved into several versions in just one morning. At the end, it was directly stated that Gu Qingshu was affectionate on the lips, but secretly he had already had a passionate relationship with Nan Yue, and even instigated Nan Yue to assassinate her. sister.

As long as Nan Xi dies, his marriage to Nan Xi will naturally fall through. Gu Qingshu will not have to wait for Nan Xi who has lost his reputation due to his affection and gentlemanly demeanor. Moreover, if Nan Yue can successfully recognize her ancestor and return to the clan, she will not have any trouble at all. Delaying him from becoming the prime minister's son-in-law was really a good plan.
