The Grand Secretary's Pampered wife

Gu Jiao rejoiced for successfully bluffing her way out!

She bobbed about her head, revealing a smug expression similar to that of Little Jing Kong.

Xiao Liulang: ...Is it really fine to be so obvious and expose yourself so quickly? Won’t this make you lose face?

"Jieyuan Xiao, Lady Xiao, here we are." Steward Zhou said on the other side of the curtain.

Xiao Liulang thanked him after the two of them got off the carriage. Just then, there was suddenly the cry of Little Jing Kong in the yard, making them stunned!

They still remembered the last time Little Jing Kong made a scene because of Grandaunt.

Gu Jiao left in a hurry today, and forgot to wake the little guy up and tell him she would be out.

If he woke up and found that he didn't sleep in Gu Jiao's bed last night, he would feel that his sleep was in vain again!

However, when they entered the backyard with anxiety, they saw Little Jing Kong playing happily in the snow with a puppy, seven chickens and a baby falcon.

Gu jiao: ...Er? Am I not important anymore?

Little Jing Kong saw Gu Jiao and Xiao Liulang, and dashed over at once, "JiaoJiao! JiaoJiao!"

He called with an excited voice.

"Bad brother-in-law."

He called with a muffled voice.

Gu Jiao opened her mouth, "Well, just now I..."

Little Jing Kong said adorably, "I know, I know! JiaoJiao went to burn incense! JiaoJiao wants the Buddha to bless me to grow taller!"

Gu Jiao: What’s going on?

Little Jing Kong's eyes sparkled like stars, "My Master has been here~"

The subject changed a little too quickly.

Gu Jiao blinked her eyes blankly and saw Little Jing Kong take out a piece of paper from a small box in the snow and hand it to her, "JiaoJiao, look!"

This was a... um... What was it?

Gu Jiao couldn’t read the words in the paper.

Xiao Liulang looked at it, as a result, he was also surprised, "A deed for a house in the State of Liang."

Gu Jiao: Was this a real estate speculation abroad?

Gu Jiao gave Xiao Liulang a look that could only be understood but couldn’t be described in words. It isn’t a fake deed that you and Granduncle deliberately made to comfort the little guy, is it?

Xiao Liulang pointed to the seal in the paper, "It’s a genuine house deed; it has the official seal of the yamen."

Gu Jiao：“…”

Gu Jiao learned from Little Jing Kong that his master came in the middle of the night, leaving a gift for him before departing again.

Gu Jiao asked, "Did you see him?"

Little Jing Kong thought for a moment then answered, "Yes! I saw him!"

Children were always firm in their own beliefs. As long as they wanted to see something, they could see it without actually seeing it!

Gu Jiao added, "Did you open the door for him?"

Little Jing Kong: "Yes! Yes!"

There were also times that children liked to say whatever they wanted!

This was mainly because Little Jing Kong truly believed that he opened the door for his Master and even spent a pleasant evening with his Master!

Little Jing Kong went to play with his head bobbing about.

There was another letter in the box, written in Gu Jiao's horrible handwriting. The letter said that she was going to burn the first incense and asked the Buddha to bless Jing Kong's height. Fearing that it would be unsafe for him to sleep alone, she took him to Grandaunt's bed first.

Gu Jiao looked at Xiao Liulang and said, "But this isn’t true?"

Xiao Liulang spread his hands, "It’s not me."

He really wasn’t capable of this kind of handwriting.

Meanwhile, the Old Chief next door could finally breathe a sigh of relief after too much exhaustion. He could easily imitate a famous painting, but imitating the handwriting of his little benefactor seriously almost killed him——

……

The collapse of the hanging bridge stirred up such a big uproar that the news could not be suppressed at all, and it soon reached the palace at night.

The person who blocked off the road was also identified. It was the Crown Princess.

The Crown Princess released the news that she was going to Puji Temple to burn incense, so the deputy commander of the imperial guards closed the roads, the bridge and even streets for her.

In fact, this thing wasn’t originally a big deal. After all, the imperial family couldn’t travel without ostentation and extravagance.

As long as nothing happened, everything was fine.

But the problem was that something had occurred, and it was even a matter of life and death!

His Majesty, who couldn’t sit still and had nowhere to vent his anger because it was difficult to admonish a woman, had to summon the Crown Prince to the imperial study and gave him a good scolding, "Look at what you've done! On the first day of the New Year, you two caused such a big mess for me! Do you think my throne is too stable? So you want to make trouble for me? "

The Crown Prince felt wronged too. Which imperial family member was never ostentatious and extravagant when they traveled? Not to mention, it was the Crown Princess, the future State of Zhao’s Empress, and she just closed off a section of road and a bridge. In fact, even if she had closed off the whole temple today, not allowing others to burn incense and worship, it would also not be considered wrong.

It wasn’t that the Crown Prince was partial to the Crown Princess, but that this had always been the case with the imperial family.

This wasn’t just the ostentation and extravagance of the imperial family, but also the customs of the imperial household.

The only exception was if the Crown Princess was traveling incognito.

But then her safety would not be guaranteed.

However, right now, His Majesty was truly angered, and the Crown Prince dared not refute a single word.

His Majesty continued to berate him, "Can't you learn from the third child? How did his wife handle the matter? How did your wife do?"

The Third Prince's Consort followed Gu Jiao's advice and selected a large number of people who knew how to swim from her own bodyguards as well as the imperial guards, and then took them to the back entrance of the temple. As soon as the hanging bridge broke, she immediately directed them to go down the river to save people.

The river flow wasn’t fast, and everyone was holding on to the planks of the hanging bridge. As long as they were saved in time, they wouldn’t freeze to death in the river.

Most of the drowning people were rescued, and the casualties were minimized.

Most of them were examinees for the coming metropolitan exam.

One could imagine how much talent loss it would bring to the entire court if the crowd hadn’t been saved!

His Majesty once had a very good impression of the Crown Princess. After all, she was engaged to the Junior Chief before, and they grew up as childhood friends. That child was so excellent, so how could his partner be worse?
