Xiao Yuanshi pretended nothing had happened and returned to the private room.
But unexpectedly, several colleagues had already left.
For some reason, he felt an indescribable bad feeling in his heart.
He didn't stay any longer and went straight back to the general's mansion.
As soon as I sat down, Ge Chunru came in with red eyes.
Xiao Yuanshi was very upset at the moment. Seeing her like this, he couldn't help but frown and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Especially seeing her now.
She couldn't help but think of how he had mistaken the emperor's uncle for her, and she felt a little sick.
Ge Chunru also noticed that Xiao Yuanshi was in a bad mood, so she changed her words and said, "It's just that seeing my brother's current state makes me sad."
Xiao Yuanshi took a deep breath and said, "Things have already come to this. There's no point in you feeling bad."
"It's better to take care of the baby in your belly first."
"When he gets better, I'll try to find him a job."
This time, because of the broken leg, the job will not be good.
Ge Chunru felt a sharp pain in his heart, but he could only nod, "Then I'll trouble you, General."
She asked, "Are you in a bad mood?"
Xiao Yuanshi said: "I encountered some troubles in the Ministry of War."
He had just joined the Ministry of War and was serving as Vice Minister, a position with real power.
The title of general sounds good, and although its rank is higher than that of vice minister, it will become a sinecure once the military power is handed over.
Therefore, he had fought hard to obtain this position of Assistant Minister of War.
After hearing what he said, Ge Chunru didn't ask any more questions.
She knew that this man was very strong and didn't like women interfering in his official affairs.
So she asked the maid to present the freshly cooked soup, "General, you have worked hard. This is the chicken soup I specially asked someone to cook for you. Please have a bowl."
Xiao Yuanshi took the chicken soup and saw the oil in the bowl, which made him lose his appetite even more.
"You drank too much before, let's drink later." He put the bowl on the table.
Seeing that she was about to speak, he said first: "I'm going to the study to work, you go back to your room and rest."
Ge Chunru could only swallow her words about asking Xiao Yuanshi if he had found out who killed her brother, and said, "General, you go ahead and do your work."
After Xiao Yuanshi went to the study, she took another can of chicken soup to Ge Chunyi's yard.
When I pushed the door open, I saw my sister with red eyes, trying to comfort her angry brother.
Ge Chunyi stood up and bowed gracefully, "Sister, you're here!"
Seeing that her sister was becoming more and more like a lady from an aristocratic family, with a beautiful and dignified appearance, Ge Chunru showed some relief in her eyes, "I'll come to see Chunyi."
Ge Chunyi nodded and said nothing more.
Ge Chunyi half-lay on the bed, and asked with a ferocious look on his face: "Sister, have you found out who harmed me?"
Ge Chunru said sadly, "Your brother-in-law is still investigating, it will be done soon."
Ge Chunyi wanted to grab a sword and chop Xi Rui to death right now. "It must have been Xi Rui who did it. There's no need to investigate further."
Ge Chunru stretched out her hand and squeezed his shoulder. "If it was really Xi Rui who did it, don't worry, I will never let him go."
No matter who it is, she will not let it go if they harm her brother.
At this moment, the silent Ge Chunyi spoke up: "Sister, the Second Prince wants to take a concubine, please ask my brother-in-law to take me there."
Ge Chunru was stunned, "What?"
Ge Chunyi looked up at her and said, "I said, I want to go to the Second Prince's Mansion to be a concubine."
Ge Chunru looked at her sister with some complexities, "Have you thought it through?"
"A concubine is also a concubine. If you want to be the principal wife, I will ask your brother-in-law to help you find a good family."
She really loves her younger siblings.
Ge Chunyi laughed and raised her hand to point to the sky, "If one day the Second Prince reaches that point."
She knew that even though she had the support of the General's Mansion, how could a woman with both her parents dead and no family background marry into a powerful family and become a legal wife?
Might as well give it a try.
The emperor's concubine is also a concubine, but who dares to say that she is a concubine? Ge Chunru didn't expect her to be so ambitious, "But what if he doesn't go that far in the end?"
Ge Chunyi smiled and said, "She is also a concubine, she won't be looked down upon when she goes out."
She was fed up with being looked down upon and unable to fit into other people's circles because of her low status.
"You sent me to learn etiquette before, didn't you want me to marry into an extraordinary family in the future?"
Otherwise, why would you learn the etiquette of those ladies from aristocratic families?
She had not been in the general's mansion before. She was sent by her sister to a place in the capital to learn etiquette for half a year.
Who would have thought that when I got home two days ago, I heard that my brother's leg had been chopped off, and the suspect was the dandy young master of the Duke's Mansion.
At that moment all her ambitions were ignited.
If she could stand in a high position, would Xi Rui still dare to attack her second brother?
If she had the power, why would she ask her brother-in-law to help her investigate and take revenge?
Also, if she stands in a high position in the future, why would her sister need to be afraid of Xiao Hanzheng in the village? She can crush him to death with one hand.
Ge Chunru seemed to be meeting her sister for the first time, but on second thought it was a good idea.
It is always better to have scheming and ambition than to be a simple little white rabbit, otherwise you won’t even know when you are being eaten by others.
If her sister had a personality like Kong, she would rather she was cruel and ruthless.
Ge Chunru asked: "Why do you want to choose the second prince? The position of the crown prince's concubine is also vacant."
She really didn't want her sister to marry into an ordinary family, so she sent her sister to learn etiquette.
That’s right, instead of marrying into an ordinary wealthy family as a wife, it’s better to marry a prince.
If I'm lucky, I might even become an imperial concubine and give birth to a prince...
No matter how bad it is, when the prince is crowned a king, she will be a concubine, and even she, the general's wife, will have to show courtesy when she sees her.
Ge Chunyi replied: "The second prince's mother is the most favored, and her mother's family is one of the three major dukes' mansions."
"He has done a good job. The prince is still studying with the tutor, but he has already entered the court to work."
"And I accidentally discovered that my brother-in-law and the second prince have private dealings."
"If my prediction is correct, my brother-in-law will choose to support the Second Prince instead of the Crown Prince in the future, right?"
"Then why not tie the interests together more deeply? Sending me to be the second prince's concubine is the best option."
Her brother-in-law holds military power and also serves as the Minister of War. He is definitely someone the Second Prince wants to win over.
And with her beauty and means, I don’t believe that the Second Prince will not be tempted.
What she lacked was family background, and only with the intervention of her brother-in-law could she be made a concubine.
If she offered herself to him, she would just be a concubine, and she didn't want that.
Besides, it’s not easy to cherish things that are delivered to you.
She had already figured out how to do the opposite and attract the Second Prince's attention and make him like her.
She added, "As long as you have the favor of the Second Prince, will it be difficult to target Xi Rui, a playboy?"
Ge Chunyi calmed down now, looked at Ge Chunru and said, "Sister, I think my sister's decision is very good, please help her."
He must take revenge.
Ge Chunru thought about it and nodded: "Okay, I will mention it to the general in a few days."
Her sister was smarter than she thought. She even discovered that the general and the second prince were having a private relationship.
This kind of personality is indeed more suitable for fighting.
My brother's future has been ruined. If my sister can take the position in the future, it will be good for both her and my brother.
