Chapter 597 The Last Princess Arrives (I)
"Mr. Yang, I want to marry the daughter of the Gu family!"
After leaving Gu's Wu Castle, Chen Duan also returned with a full load.
There were several more carriages in his queue.
Some of the carriages were filled with precious medicines for treating miasma, while others were filled with food and salt.
Gu Qingcheng definitely showed the greatest sincerity——
The reason why the Gu family was able to gain a foothold in Lingnan and was not afraid of the terrible miasma was because of the "special medicine".
Now, Gu Qingcheng did not keep the medicine to herself, but gave it to her hero, her god.
Chen Duan, whose heart had turned as cold as steel after years of fighting, was deeply touched.
The more people pay attention to interests, the more they understand the value of "interests".
If Gu Qingcheng was a little woman who only knew love, Chen Duan would not cherish her efforts no matter how valuable they were.
Because this is her nature. No matter who it is, as long as love comes to her mind, she will do it foolishly.
Gu Qingcheng is not a love-brained person.
She is ambitious and capable. She is not a little white rabbit, but a little fox.
She is cunning by nature, but she is willing to show me her soft belly——
How could Chen Duan not be moved? He had wanted to marry a girl from a noble family who met the right conditions in the past for the sake of profit.
But now, his feelings towards the third wife of the Gu family are mixed with a trace of sincerity.
Yang Wei sat in the carriage, holding a feather fan in a very pretentious manner.
Well, it’s not all pretense.
A feather fan can not only fan air, but also drive away mosquitoes.
In Lingnan, the things you can't avoid are mosquitoes.
Gently waving the feather fan, Yang Wei looked at Chen Duan deeply, "My Lord, have you decided?"
If it is just for profit, marrying a girl from the Gu family is definitely the best choice.
But Yang Wei was afraid that the prince was not just doing it for profit.
The God of War has no mortal desires, but once he is tempted, the consequences can be terrifying.
"...Sir, do you think Gu's is not suitable?"
Chen Duan tilted his head unnaturally, avoiding Yang Wei's gaze.
He didn't know whether he wanted to remind Yang Wei or convince himself, so he asked this question.
"It's appropriate! Gu's family comes from a famous family, and both his grandfather and father are heroes of the time."
"Gu is also talented and beautiful, with a strong character. She is a rare mistress!"
Gu Shi is not bad, but too good! So good that Yang Wei is worried that her master will not be able to keep his heart and will fall for Gu Shi in the future! "Since it is suitable, then marry her!"
Chen Duan had not yet realized the "crisis". He looked in the direction of Gu's Wu Castle and said firmly.
Yang Wei: ...Haha, you are the one who makes the final decision, and you are still pretending to ask me what I do? ...
Gu Qingcheng saw Chen Duan off, but was not in a hurry to leave.
She has to make arrangements for the Linyuan tribe. In addition, there is also some cooperation with the Chen family.
Gu Qingcheng stayed in Yuezhou for another month, and only after finishing all the matters did she set off back to Luozhou.
After entering Wu Castle, Gu Qingcheng went straight to Gu Heng's study.
"Aunt, I want to get engaged to Chen Duan!"
Poof! Gu Heng rarely behaved like spitting tea in his life.
But at this moment, after hearing what his granddaughter said, he still spat out a mouthful of tea.
Gu Qingcheng reached out helplessly and handed a handkerchief to her grandfather.
Gu Heng hurriedly took the handkerchief and wiped his face and the front of his clothes roughly.
"Ah Qing, what did you just say?"
Could it be that there was too much pepper in the tea today, causing me to hear hallucinations when I sneezed?
"Aunt, I want to marry into the Chen family!"
Gu Qingcheng repeated it obediently.
Gu Heng: ...I'm not hallucinating!
He subconsciously wanted to reach out.
Gu Qingcheng had a delicate face and raised her hand to block her grandfather's hand from reaching for her forehead, "Aunt, I don't have a fever!"
Why did he start talking nonsense when he didn't have a fever? Chen Duan!
Not to mention that he was a poor warrior, not to mention that the Chen family had usurped the Xiao family's throne, and not to mention that he was an old widower in his twenties...
My own granddaughter is a person with great ambitions.
The Gu family is helping her with almost all their strength, just so that she can conquer the world in the future.
As a result, Gu Qing went to Guangcheng and said she wanted to get married when she came back!
Get married?
She is not getting married at all, she is clearly handing over the whole world to Chen Duan.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
To make wedding clothes for others!
Could it be that Aqing was also infected by Gu Youyi?
Became a foolish woman who only cared about men? Gu Qingcheng glanced at her grandfather who was shocked, and did not rush to speak.
She picked up the teapot and poured herself a cup of tea.
Well, the tea soup is a blend of many flavors, and it is very intoxicating just by smelling it.
Gu Qingcheng took a sip and praised, "Great tea!"
Gu Heng: ...What time is it now?
You little girl, do you still have the leisure to drink tea?
The shocking words almost scared your grandfather, okay? ! "Ah Qing!!" Gu Heng was so angry at his little granddaughter that he blew his beard!
Gu Qingcheng put down the teacup, looked at her grandfather intently, and suddenly smiled.
The cute little girl's smile is as bright and beautiful as a spring flower.
"Aunt, you see, even you think I am 'outward-looking' and will 'make wedding clothes for others', let alone outsiders?"
And Chen Duan was also among the "outsiders".
Sometimes, worldly prejudices may become a help to you!
Gu Qingcheng has a sweet smile, but her eyes are so calm that it's frightening.
Gu Heng looked into Gu Qingcheng's eyes. Suddenly, he thought of something and started coughing violently.
"Ah Qing! You! You!"
Such cunning and scheming...he is simply a natural born politician.
Use everything available to achieve your own goals.
"Aunt, Chen Duan is willing to give 500 sets of armor and 500 war horses as a betrothal gift."
"And I also gave him one-third of the profits from the salt works as a dowry."
"In addition, the wars in Jiaozhou and Huangzhou are not going well, and Chen Duan is willing to 'lend' me troops."
Of course, the soldiers had been borrowed, and as a general, it was normal for Chen Duan to help fight the war.
Gu Qingcheng only showed her "sincerity" and offered some benefits, and she was given the right to use 20,000 elite soldiers.
Gu Qingcheng felt that this "marriage" was very worthwhile! Gu Heng:...I seem to have seen several famous Liu emperors in history who used marriage (relying on women) to the extreme! Waving his hands, Gu Heng showed an attitude of "I don't care", letting his little granddaughter toss!
In addition to cooperating with Chen Duan to capture Huangzhou, Jiaozhou and other places in one go, Gu Qingcheng also did not forget the bet with the Huang family.
With half a month left before the one-year gambling period, Gu Qingcheng's treasure ship was successfully completed.
Huang Yannian: ...I'm willing to accept defeat! Moreover, the Huang family didn't really "lose". Not only did they get dividends from the salt field, they also cooperated with the Gu family on the shipyard.
The daughter of the Gu family has the King of Liang behind her.
The Gu family's position in Lingnan became increasingly stable. The Huang family realized this, and other local powerful families also reacted and formed an alliance with the Gu family.
Gu Qingcheng not only expanded his territory, but also received more help.
Huoshui: "Your Majesty, another half year has passed, don't you want to do a mission?"
Gu Qingcheng nodded graciously, "Okay, for your sake, I'll do another task!"
