"Instead of studying hard, you spend all day thinking about traveling. How disgraceful! What does it have to do with you if Shanhe Academy organizes students to go on a study tour?"
Liu Yi didn't care about anything and started scolding him.
Liu Zheng was a little scared.
Being beaten since childhood, even though one has thick skin and tough muscles, does not mean that one is willing to be beaten.
He quietly defended himself, "My son just wants to go out with me to broaden his horizons."
"If you haven't even studied well, what's the point of gaining knowledge?" Liu Yi was very dissatisfied.
Bang!
Xiao Qin'er kicked over the chair and questioned Liu Yi, "Tell me, what do you mean?"
Liu Yi said as a matter of course: "I am disciplining my son, you can't see it."
"go out!"
In front of Liu Zheng, Xiao Qin'er didn't give Liu Yi any face at all.
Liu Yi was furious, "Xiao Qin'er, don't go too far."
"You're the one who's going too far. I'll definitely fight for Zheng Ge'er on this study tour. I'm putting this out there. If you dare to object or make any moves behind my back, don't blame me for turning on you."
Xiao Qin'er made harsh remarks without showing any fear.
Liu Zheng felt a little guilty and wanted to leave, but he was afraid of disturbing his parents.
I just hid in the corner and calculated the time.
Liu Yi was so angry that his face turned blue. "Okay, okay, don't bother me about his affairs in the future. I'll just pretend I never gave birth to a son like him."
"That's what you think in your heart, right?" Xiao Qin'er said sarcastically, "You've wanted to get rid of us mother and son for a long time. Am I right?"
Liu Yi sneered, did not respond to Xiao Qin'er, and simply left.
Xiao Qin'er was so angry that she kicked the chair, making a noise.
It's so infuriating.
She looked at Liu Zheng and said, "What are you standing there for? Come here and tell me what this study tour is all about."
Liu Zheng obediently came to Xiao Qin'er, feeling a little regretful, "Mother, there is no need to argue with father because of your son."
"It's not your fault at all. Your father and I have always had conflicts, and it was only a matter of time before we had to fight."
"But……"
"No buts. Don't worry about your father's attitude. I support you, so go ahead and study. Remember, I only have the three of you, and your father has many children."
"I understand. I think if I can appease my father, I can stay away from studying."
"Silly child, why don't you go out? This is a rare opportunity. Go out and see the world, and experience it with Brother Yu. You are so old, but you have never left the capital. Don't you want to go out and see the world? One day, this family will be separated, and then your sister and brother will depend on you to take care of them. How can you not learn some skills now?"
Upon hearing this, Liu Zheng nodded heavily, "My son listens to his mother. However, my son may not have the opportunity to go on the study tour with you."
"I'll help you get the opportunity."
"Thank you, mother."
Liu Zheng turned his worry into joy.
…
The palace issued an edict, officially conferring the title of consort on Gu Jiu.
From now on, Gu Jiu is the Princess of Qin.
Many people sent people to give gifts and congratulate.
After receiving gifts from everyone, I have to give something back.
So, taking advantage of the happy event of being crowned as a concubine, Gu Jiu sent out invitations and invited everyone to come to her house to enjoy the flowers.
The eldest prince's palace has been officially renamed the Prince of Qin's palace.
Duke Sanyuan personally wrote the three characters "Qin Wang Fu" (Prince of Qin's Mansion), which were then carved by the craftsmen of the Shaofu and hung on the gate of the Prince of Qin's Mansion.
Anyone who passes by the door and looks up can see the three large gold-plated characters "Qin Wang Mansion", which demonstrates the heritage, style and power.
On the day of the banquet, many guests gathered.
Everyone gathered at the Prince of Qin's mansion to congratulate the Princess of Qin.
Everyone gathered around Gu Jiu, saying auspicious and festive words. Even the flattery was unconventional.
Gu Jiu moved with ease among the guests, trying his best to make every guest feel comfortable.
He was busy until the lunch was over and everyone moved to the theater to listen to a play, and only then did Gu Jiu have some free time.
I found a side room to rest. Just as I took a nap, a servant came to report that Madam Yi had something to discuss with me.
Gu Jiu said, "Please let the fourth lady in."
Xiao Qin'er was invited into the side room. "Thank you for your hard work today, sister-in-law."
"You're so polite, Fourth Sister-in-law! Why aren't you at the theater listening to the opera? Could it be that today's repertoire isn't to your liking?"
"That's not the case." Xiao Qin'er sat down, holding the teacup, wanting to say something but stopping herself.
Gu Jiu smiled and said, "Fourth sister-in-law, just say what you want to say."
"Then I won't be polite. The thing is, I heard that Brother Yu was going on a study tour with the teachers and students of Shanhe Academy, so I was wondering if my Liu Zheng could go with them. Liu Zheng is quite old, but he's never been out of the capital. If he goes with Brother Yu, he'll at least be able to improve his skills."
Gu Jiu said, "Fourth brother's wife thinks too highly of my brother Yu. As for the study tour, to be honest, His Majesty has not yet heard anything. Without His Majesty's approval, my brother Yu cannot leave the capital."
Xiao Qin'er hurriedly said, "I understand your difficulties. I just want to ask, if His Majesty agrees to let Yu'er go out for training, can you please fight for my Zheng'er? Don't worry, I won't let you help me in vain. I know you are building the Huanyu Horse Farm and need to enclose land. I have a farm there, covering an area of 20 to 30 hectares. If you don't mind, I can sell the farm to the horse farm."
oh?
Xiao Qin'er was willing to do it for her son.
Gu Jiu pondered for a moment, "There's no rush regarding the farm. Let's put it this way. As soon as there's news from the palace, I'll send someone to inform my sister-in-law. But I can't guarantee that His Majesty will agree to let Zheng Ge'er go out of the capital for training. I can only do my best."
Xiao Qin'er was delighted and said, "Thank you, sister-in-law."
With Gu Jiu's guarantee, half of the task was accomplished.
Xiao Qin'er smiled happily and couldn't wait to tell Liu Zheng the good news.
"Sister-in-law is tired after a morning's work, so I won't bother you anymore. I'll treat you to a drink tomorrow when I'm free."
"Whenever my sister-in-law holds a full-month banquet for her child, or a hundred-day banquet, I will definitely come over for a drink."
"Then it's settled."
Xiao Qin'er left satisfied.
Gu Jiu sighed, "How pitiful are the parents in the world."
The farm owned by Xiao Qin'er, located on the western outskirts of the city, is a profitable farm with a good annual output.
The farm was originally Xiao Qin'er's dowry. Later, when she had money, she bought some more land, and the farm became bigger and bigger.
Now, for Liu Zheng, Xiao Qin'er is willing to sell the farm she has owned for many years. She really has good intentions.
It is easy to sell farmland in the capital. Once it is put on the market, it will be snapped up by wealthy people within two days.
It is extremely difficult to buy a suitable farm.
Either the location is bad, there is no water source, or it is too far away from the water source. Or the area is too small or too large.
In short, if you want to buy a farm that suits your taste, you really have to rely on luck.
Unless you spend a lot of money like the Universal Racecourse, you may be able to find a farm that suits your taste.
If the news of the sale of the farm under Xiao Qin'er's name were to be released, there would definitely be a lot of wealthy people rushing to buy it.
Xu Yousi asked, "Does the princess really intend to secure an opportunity for Liu Zheng to study abroad outside the capital?"
Gu Jiu tapped the table lightly and said, "Go and invite the prince."
Xu Yousi accepted the order.
Not long after, Prince Liu Yu was invited to the side room.
"Mother asked her son to come over, but does she have any instructions?"
"sit!"
Liu Yu sat down as ordered, looking relaxed and natural.
Gu Jiu asked him, "What are you busy with recently?"
Liu Yu's eyes lit up instantly. "My son has been sorting out the materials of the three gentlemen's conversations over the past few days and has benefited a lot."
"Have you been practicing martial arts diligently?"
"I dare not slack off for a single day. Although I am not as brave as Brother Zheng, I can easily defeat three or five ordinary thieves."
Gu Jiu raised his eyebrows and smiled, "You are so confident, not bad, not bad."
Liu Yu smiled, his eyes filled with warmth.
Gu Jiu asked softly, "Today, your fourth aunt asked me if Liu Zheng could follow you out of the capital to study."
When Liu Yu heard this, he felt a little guilty. "My son knows he was wrong. He was so happy at the time that he accidentally let it slip."
"I know you and Liu Zheng have a good relationship. I'm asking you this formally: are you willing to let Liu Zheng go on a study tour with you?"
"My son is willing!"
"Why?"
"Brother Zheng's dream is to travel the world with his sword. Going abroad to study can help him realize his dream in advance. After experiencing it, he will no longer have fantasies and can stay in the capital and live a wealthy life."
Hey!
Gu Jiu was surprised.
She thought that the two brothers had a good relationship, and that was why Yu Ge'er wanted Liu Zheng to go out and study with him.
I didn't expect that Yu Ge'er would think so far ahead.
She couldn't help but ask, "Do you think Liu Zheng is not living a stable life now?"
Liu Yu nodded heavily. "Brother Zheng has too many ideas and likes to dream. Often, he's even more unrealistic than my son. My son wants to go out and gain some experience, see the outside world, and maybe after two or three years, he'll be able to settle down. With that comparison, I realize the life my grandson lives is nothing but a dream."
Gu Jiu couldn't help laughing, "What about you? You're so excited about going out, but is it because you're thinking too much that you can't settle down?"
Liu Yu frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and then said, "I'll never be satisfied if I don't go out and see the world. Besides, my son has many questions in his heart. Trapped in the capital, he can't find the answers. Only by going out can I get a chance to answer the questions in my heart."
Gu Jiu asked curiously, "What kind of questions are you having?"
Liu Yu was a little embarrassed and whispered: "Fate, life, death and reincarnation."
Gu Jiu frowned.
Such metaphysical questions, thinking about life and death, and fate at such a young age, are not sure whether it is a blessing or a curse. It seems necessary to remind Sanyuan Gong to always pay attention to Yu Ge'er's ideological problems.
Gu Jiu said solemnly: "You are going to study abroad, and mother has two requests."
"Mother, please speak."
Gu Jiu solemnly instructed: "The first requirement is to pay attention to safety. Safety is the first priority at all times. Don't show off. There are many beautiful girls out there, and there are also many people with complicated minds. Don't let them take advantage of you.
The second requirement is that being good at thinking is a good thing, but don't get stuck in a rut. Your worldview, your outlook on life, and your values aren't formed overnight. What you think today might be completely overturned in a month, a year, or even a few years. Don't rush to make conclusions.
