Chapter 901 I Really Don’t Want to Work Hard Anymore
After putting the pressure on A Niang, Gu Yunyan was no longer afraid of anything.
She had a lot to do, so A'niang gave her the task of supervising the construction of the palace.
She was responsible for the site selection, design, and procurement of the palace, and was extremely busy every day.
Occasionally when she had a break, she would run to her second brother's palace to play with the fat boy, and feel full of energy again.
After Gu Nanxi revealed the news that she wanted to choose a husband for Gu Yunyan, there has been no movement so far.
After all, no one is a fool.
If Gu Yunyan becomes the next queen, as the husband of the king, he will definitely be the most feared. Just like the prince consort, he is not allowed to interfere in state affairs and has no achievements in officialdom.
Each family does have children who are not very outstanding, but His Majesty does not like them.
If I send my beloved son to be a prince, I would feel it would be a huge loss.
Therefore, regarding this matter, most people are watching and few are taking part.
…
In Xiangzhou, Lu Qing happily returned home carrying his bag, but what greeted him was his father's broom.
"Dad, what are you doing? Look carefully, I am your good son." Lu Qing dodged to the right and the broom almost scratched his face.
"I'm going to hit you!" Father Lu was so angry that his beard was shaking.
Lu Qing was still there, feeling aggrieved: "I didn't do anything, why did you hit me? Grandma, mother, sister, please come and judge for yourself!"
Grandmother Lu came out with a cane and angrily scolded Father Lu: "What are you doing? My grandson finally comes home once, why is he fighting and killing people?"
Father Lu snorted: "Why don't you ask this brat!"
Grandmother Lu looked at Lu Qing again: "What did you do to make your father so angry?"
Lu Qing was confused and aggrieved: "Heaven and earth can see that I didn't do anything."
"How dare you say that! I heard that you resigned from the Control Crane House?"
When this was mentioned, Lu Qing wanted to hug A Niang's waist and cry: "Yes, I resigned, shouldn't you be happy for me?"
In that damn place, if a mouse gets in, it has to be pressed on the table to work.
God knows how much he had to talk before he successfully left Konghe Mansion.
Father Lu was so angry that he jumped up and down, and said angrily: "You bastard, our family spent so much money and materials to finally get you into the Konghe Mansion. Now that Duke Yun has become His Majesty, you actually want to resign!"
It's really infuriating.
Just when he was about to ascend to heaven with his family, he actually quit!
Lu Qing cried, "Konghe Mansion is not what you think. We get up earlier than chickens, sleep later than dogs, and eat very little. We work with money!"
It’s so sad to think about it. He has been spoiled since he was a child and didn’t have to work so hard when he was studying.
Grandmother Lu touched his head and said, "Don't you admire Duke Yun the most? Don't you want to be by her side?"
"Yes, but I want to keep this life and accompany my grandmother."
No matter how sweetly Lu Qing spoke, he was still ruthlessly kicked out of the house by his family.
Father Lu threatened: "If you don't return to Konghe Mansion, we won't recognize you!"
Little cabbage, yellow in the field, only three or two years old, and already lost its mother.
Lu Qing was desolate and miserable, but fortunately he had the help of his sister and aunts so he didn't have to sleep on the streets at night.
His aunt advised him, "Look, you can't carry anything on your shoulders or lift anything with your hands. What else can you do except your face? For the sake of our Lu family, what's the problem with sacrificing a little bit of your looks?"
Lu Xinqing cried and said, "I would like to sacrifice myself, but His Majesty doesn't like it."
Aunt Lu sighed repeatedly.
Mr. Lu's attitude was very firm. He directly asked Sister Lu and Aunt Lu not to care about Lu Qing anymore.
Fortunately, there is always a way out. When Lu Qing was sitting in the teahouse, he got some big news.
So, he carried his luggage and the only 100 taels of silver he had left and took a bus from Xiangzhou to Kyoto.
…
"Master, there is a young man who has been coming to our store for three consecutive days, looking for you."
When Gu Yunyan came to Baiwei Restaurant to inspect the property, she heard the shopkeeper reporting in a low voice.
She followed the shopkeeper's gaze and saw a handsome man sitting at the table in the corner.
She has fair skin, an oval face, a pair of bright and affectionate eyes, and looks very young.
Gu Yunyan always felt that this person looked familiar, as if she had seen him somewhere.
Lu Qing waited for several days and finally saw Gu Yunyan. He waved and greeted her hurriedly: "Your Highness, do you still remember me? I am Lu Qing from the Control Crane Mansion."
Oh, I remember now, it turned out to be this group of suckers.
Gu Yunyan invited him into a private room on the second floor and asked with a smile, "What do you want to see me about, Mr. Lu?"
Lu straightened the wrinkles on his clothes and looked at Gu Yunyan eagerly: "I heard that His Highness wants to recruit a royal wife?"
"Yes, I have such an idea."
It’s just that there are no suitable candidates at the moment. I don’t like the ones who are too bad, and others are reluctant to give up the ones who are too good.
Lu Qing's eyes lit up and he volunteered: "Your Highness, what do you think of me?"
ah?
This made Gu Yunyan completely confused: "Aren't you from the Control Crane Mansion?"
"But I have resigned and I am now just an ordinary citizen."
"You resigned, why did you resign?"
Lu Qing looked at Gu Yunyan with an accusing look. Why do you want to resign? Don’t you have any idea?
Given the intensity of the work, it would be impossible to do it without a heart of gold.
Gu Yunyan obviously understood Lu Qing's meaning. She knocked her head twice and asked, "Then why did you come to see me?"
Lu Qing looked hopeless: "Because I really don't want to work hard anymore, I just want to lie down and eat some soft rice."
What a pure and unpretentious man.
Since the words were so clear, Gu Yunyan would not be polite.
She sat down and was about to pour herself a cup of tea when Lu Qing showed off his tea-making skills with great tact.
He was also very considerate and waited for the tea to reach the right temperature before handing it to Gu Yunyan.
Gu Yunyan took a sip of tea and did not say whether she was satisfied or not. Instead, she asked, "Do you want to be the king's husband?"
Sincerity is the secret weapon.
Lu Qing answered honestly: "It would be best if I could become the king's husband. If not, being a concubine would also be good."
Gu Yunyan sighed softly, and it was obvious that he really didn't want to work hard anymore.
"There are so many excellent people, why should I choose you?"
Lu Qing counted his strengths on his fingers: "First, I am good-looking. When I stand there, you can eat an extra bowl of rice. Second, I am considerate and can provide you with emotional value. If you ask me to be quiet, I will definitely not say a word. Third, I am generous and never jealous. I am as close to my brothers as a family."
"Fourth, I come from a humble family, so I definitely don't dare to have any thoughts that I shouldn't have. Fifth, I have a good physique, a high level of skills, and I am open-minded to learn and willing to hone my skills."
"Sixth, my family has a long history of learning. When it comes to pleasing the head of the family, no one can compare to me."
"Seventh, if you really don't like me, put me in the backyard as a mascot, or a vase or a wooden stake."
Anyway, he just didn't want to work hard anymore. His family kicked him out, and he just wanted to find a place to spend the rest of his life.
Gu Yunyan...
I have seen many hardworking and ambitious people, but this is the first time I have seen someone who is so clumsy.
