"Thank you two great uncles!"

Xu Wenhui's original purpose was to go in and have a look. The two uncles with four and five bedrooms were so enthusiastic, so Xu Wenhui was naturally not polite! I agreed immediately!

After saying that, he winked at Gu Tingye, motioning for him to follow, and followed the two uncles inside!

The two people in the fourth and fifth bedrooms didn't care about Gu Tingye at this time. They just followed Xu Wenhui and chatted while walking.
"My dear nephew, didn't the second master of the Zhang family come with you? Why can't you see him now?"

"Yes, yes! I'm also thinking about having a drink with Brother Zhang!"

Xu Wenhui smiled and said:

"Uncle Zhang Shi has other things to do, so he has gone back first. I am a junior, and there is nothing to do today, so I will wait and see! See if I can have a chance to meet Gu Shibo!

Gu Shibo took good care of me in the northwest. Now that I heard that he is not in good health, Wen Hui here is really worried! "

When he was drinking with Gu Tingye before, Zhang Kai had already sent someone to notify Xu Wenhui!

Since he can't see Gu Yankai, he won't stay here any longer!
After all, if Gu Yankai really went, he would have to make complete preparations in advance, and he would have to discuss it with other people! It’s not good to stay here for too long!
As for Gu Tingyu, it seemed that his body couldn't hold on anymore and he went back to his yard to rest!

The two people in the fourth and fifth bedrooms heard Xu Wenhui mention Gu Yankai, saw the worried look on Xu Wenhui's face, and finally thought that they had an elder brother who was dying!

A trace of embarrassment flashed across his expression,
Then he quickly put away the smile on his face and became a little sad.
The fourth-fang master said slightly gratefully:
"Hey, eldest brother... Many thanks to my nephew for coming to visit me! It's a pity that my eldest brother is too weak to visit! I'm afraid I have failed my nephew's kindness!"

"Yes! Yes! It is indeed inconvenient!" The master of the fifth room also nodded in agreement. As he spoke, he couldn't help but glared at Gu Tingye, who had been silent, and then said:

"My eldest brother has always been healthy. If it weren't for some rebellious and unfilial things that made my eldest brother so angry! He would never be like this! God has not blessed my family!"

Gu Tingye had always been at odds with his four-bedroom and five-bedroom uncle, but now looking at the two men's movements, they were no different from clowns!
I opened my mouth to make a mocking argument, but then I saw Xiao Qin’s mother walking out of the house.

I felt guilty, and I didn’t want to disturb my father by having unnecessary arguments with these two clowns, Four Fangs and Five Fangs, so I shut my mouth again!
Xiao Qin's behavior is much more normal than the two in the fourth and fifth bedrooms.
With a worried and sad look, he forced a smile.
He walked up to him, looked at Xu Wenhui and said:
"It's Wen Hui here! Don't be offended if you miss him from afar!"

Naturally, Xu Wenhui didn't care about other people's polite words. He slightly bowed his hands and cupped his fists and said:

"Auntie is seriously ill. I wonder how Uncle Shi is doing now. Is his condition getting better? Can Wen Hui go in and visit?"

Xiao Qin's face became more sad when he heard this. He stretched out his hand to wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes, shook his head and said helplessly:
"I'm afraid it won't work. The imperial doctor said that the Marquis can't stand the slightest disturbance now..."

The fourth and fifth bedrooms also agreed, but they couldn’t meet Gu Yankai anyway!

Now he is standing in the courtyard,
Xu Wenhui perceived more and more clearly,

In addition to Gu Yankai and Xiao Qin, there were other people in the room.

There are indeed two figures who look like imperial doctors,

It's just that the two of them are not with Gu Yankai, they are staying outside now!

There is a maid next to the two imperial doctors, who seems to be serving or supervising the two imperial doctors!
The two imperial doctors also kept silent, neither talking nor discussing their condition!

It seems like he is taboo about something!
Gu Yankai is still unconscious, and his breath is indeed very weak, but to the extent that he cannot be visited,

That's not necessarily true. It's obvious that the entire Gu family doesn't want Gu Yankai to convey any information to the outside world!
I don’t know if Gu Yankai has noticed this...

Xu Wenhui was thinking in his heart, but didn't show it on his face.

Hearing what Xiao Qin said was so serious, he also showed worry at the right time.
"So that's what it is...Shibo is a good person and a good match for heaven! I hope he recovers soon! The great Zhou Dynasty cannot be without Shibo, a pillar of his family!"

As he spoke, Xu Wenhui winked at Gu Tingye calmly, as if asking, is your father really that serious?
Gu Tingye saw Xu Wenhui's doubts,

At this time, he also sensed that something was wrong. If he was not allowed to visit his father, the reason was somewhat reasonable.
After all, he knew that his father, Gu Yankai, looked down upon him, and what happened to Zhu Manniang,
When Gu Yankai sees him now, he may become more angry, his condition may worsen, or he may even die!
But not allowing Xu Wenhui to visit would be unjustifiable.
So he interjected:
"Mom, my father has always been optimistic about Bo Sheng, and even regarded him as a confidant. Now that Bo Sheng is here, why not let him meet him? I don't think my father will be happy to see Bo Sheng, and it will also help his condition!"

Before Xiao Qin could say anything, the old man from the fourth room jumped up and stared at Gu Tingye and shouted:

"Shut up! You bastard! There is no room for interjection here! If it weren't for the shady things you did outside, why would my brother be like this!"

"Yes, we saw that you came with the young marquis, so we didn't drive you away! Now you still have the nerve to speak, you are really shameless!"

The old man from the fifth house did not hesitate to give in, and immediately scolded Gu Tingye!
After saying that, fearing that Xu Wenhui might misunderstand that he and others were scolding Gu Tingye to look at Xu Wenhui's face, he hurriedly said to Xu Wenhui:
"My nephew! You don't know! My brother is so angry just because of these evil things! Tell me! Which family in the capital city of Manbian can have such a bastard son... My brother has been famous all his life. , destroyed in the hands of this little beast!"

Xiao Qin also cried secretly when he heard this... It seemed that he had confirmed what the two old men of the fourth and fifth bedrooms said!

Xu Wenhui didn't expect that Gu Tingye would arouse public anger when he spoke. It would be hard for Gu Tingye to interrupt now!
Otherwise, it would be hard for me to stay any longer if there was a commotion!

So while winking at Gu Tingye and shaking his head slightly to prevent him from speaking, he changed the subject and responded: "Elders, please calm down...Although Zhong Huai made some shortcomings, it was unintentional in the end! What matters now is Shibo's body! I don't know. Is there anything I can do for you?" He said with a helpless sigh:
"Hey, speaking of it, if it weren't for some military matters that need to be discussed with Uncle Shi, Wen Hui wouldn't be able to disturb him at this time!"

Now that Xu Wenhui has said this, it is not good for a few people to hold on to Gu Tingye at this time. After all, in front of Xu Wenhui, an outsider, it is fine if he means what he means. If he goes too far, the Gu family will also be embarrassed!

The eldest man of the fourth room boasted that he was now the number one person in charge of the Gu family, besides Gu Yankai. When Xu Wenhui talked about military affairs, his thoughts changed.
If his brother Gu Yankai dies, the Gu family will need the help of Xu Wenhui and other distinguished family members if they want to successfully inherit the military legacy.
At this time, have a good exchange with Xu Wenhui, and maybe their fourth room can get some benefits from it!
So without waiting for Xiao Qin to respond, he immediately nodded and said:
"My good nephew is interested! My eldest brother is really powerless now. Why don't you and I..." As he said that, he realized that talking about important matters was inappropriate and a bit rude in this courtyard, so he slapped his forehead and said in regret:

"Oh, look at my brain. I let my nephew stand in this courtyard and talk for a long time. It's so rude, so rude!
Come, come, walk, please in the house, please in the house! Come on, hurry up and serve tea! "

Now that Xu Wenhui has something to ask for, the old man from the fourth room is even more attentive!
The elder of the fifth house had the same thought when he heard this. He was also afraid of falling behind, so he hurriedly echoed:
"Yes, yes! My dear nephew, you are an honored guest, so you can't neglect me! Let's go and have a cup of tea in the house!"

"This……"

This was unavoidable. Xiao Qin wanted to say a few polite words, so she sent Xu Wenhui away.
I didn't expect that the fourth uncle and the fifth uncle would invite Xu Wenhui into the house on their own initiative for their own selfish interests. Isn't this adding to the chaos?
I couldn't help but secretly scold my fourth and fifth uncles for being bastards!
After thinking about it, Xiao Qin felt that it was not appropriate to let Xu Wenhui stay, so she thought it would be better to be more cautious. She happened to be standing in front of everyone, blocking the way, so she did not move and interjected:

"How about going to the Wutong Garden next door? The scenery there is better and cleaner! It's also convenient for conversation! After all, the Marquis needs to rest..."

When the fourth old man saw that Xiao Qin had other opinions, he couldn't help but feel a little unhappy. He even ran to the yard next to him. Isn't this just adding trouble to the situation? If Xu Wenhui thought that he and others were deliberately neglecting him, it wouldn't be worth the loss! So he said a little impatiently:

"Oh, sister-in-law! You are really over-concerned. We are just going to the lobby, so we can't disturb Big Brother! Besides, it's convenient for us to take care of Big Brother here! If anything happens to Big Brother, we can't stay too far away! "

"That's right, sister-in-law! It's not the way to treat guests when you're close and you're far away! Let's go, let's go! It'll be okay!"

The fifth old man was also a little disdainful in his heart that Xiao Qin was a timid and fearful woman, so what if she just sat in the lobby!
When Xiao Qin heard what her two uncles said, although she still didn't want to, she couldn't say much in front of Xu Wenhui.
After all, if he stops him again, it will seem like he is deliberately targeting Xu Wenhui!
Even for Gu Tingye, it’s hard to do it in front of Xu Wenhui... Otherwise, it will easily lead to misunderstandings!

After thinking about it, it really shouldn't be a problem just in the living room.

So he suppressed his anger and forced a smile:
"The fourth uncle and the fifth uncle are still thoughtful, it's me who worries too much! Wen Hui, come in quickly! It's my aunt who's being rude here!"

As he spoke, he turned slightly to the side and made a gesture of invitation!
The fourth master next to him was very proud when he saw Xiao Qin surrendering, and he laughed and said:
"That's right, we are here, sister-in-law, don't worry!" He said and made an inviting gesture towards Xu Wenhui,

"Please, my nephew! Let me tell you, my Gu family has a tea factory in the south, and the Xiao Long Tuan is an authentic place..."

Naturally, Xu Wenhui also kept being polite, and then everyone invited me to go into the house together!

……

Several people quickly entered the main hall!
As the current mistress and master, Xiao Qin naturally sits at the top!
Xu Wenhui as a guest,
Sitting on the first chair on the left, Gu Tingye sits below!
The old man in the fourth room and the old man in the fifth room were sitting opposite each other!

After sitting down,

The old man with four and five bedrooms couldn't wait to wait for the tea to be served and looked at Xu Wenhui impatiently.

"My dear nephew, you just said that you need to discuss some military matters with your brother? Now that my brother can't be in charge, why not talk to me? Maybe I can help with some advice!"

"Yes, yes, I have also experienced in the military. If my nephew has something to do, please tell me. If there is a way, if three people are walking together, there must be my teacher. Let's talk about it and we can refer to it together!"

Xu Wenhui entered the room just to delay time so that he could wait for Gu Yankai to wake up, so he was naturally willing to respond and replied:

"Two uncles, this is it! You are also aware of the current situation. Some things have reached a critical moment!

In order to ensure a smooth transition, our nobles still have to firmly grasp the errands in hand!
But if Gu Shibo can't step in to take charge at this time, then something important is missing..."

Although Gu Yankai held many positions, including the general of the auxiliary state, the state of Shangzhu, the military governor of Hedong Road, etc.!
But these are all false positions,

His most important position is the commander of the Tianlong Army, in charge of the Tianlong Army, one of the six armies in the Beijing camp!

Today, the capital camp of the Great Zhou Dynasty is divided into Pengri, Tianwu, Longwei, Shenwei, Shenyong, and Wuyi. The six armies are collectively called the "Shang Liu Army", with a total of more than 300,000 troops! It is the most important military force to stabilize the stability around Bianjing!
At first, the Sixth Army was controlled by nobles. Among them, the ancestors of the Xu family served in the Shenyong and Wuyi armies.
Later, with the gradual decline of honors and nobles, talents withered!
The four armies of Longwei, Shenwei, Shenyong and Wuyi among the Sixth Army were gradually controlled by the emperor's cronies.

Today, only the Tianlong Army and the Japanese Army are still in the hands of Ningyuan Marquis Gu Yankai and the British Duke Zhang Kai respectively.

Later, Xu Wenhui led the Xu family to rise, and after returning to Beijing,
Many generals from the Xu family who were brought back were placed in Wu Yi's army. Because the Xu family had operated in Wu Yi's army many years ago, and their disciples had many old friends, so although Xu Wenhui has not been directly appointed as the commander of Wu Yi's army,
However, according to the Xu family's past relationship, coupled with the current management, some of Wu Yijun's movements can also be affected at critical moments!

But in general, it is not as legitimate as the Tianlong and Pengri armies led by Gu Yankai and Zhang Kai.
Moreover, Gu Yankai, the two of them, has high prestige, and Zhang Kai has the blessing of the old British general, so the power in his hands is relatively solid!

It can be regarded as the Dinghai Shenzhen among the nobles!
But if Gu Yankai dies suddenly and no one from the Gu family can take over in a short time,

That day the Dragon Army lost its backbone, which was equivalent to half of it being crippled!

The power in Xungui's hands has naturally declined a lot, which is why Zhang Kai and others are worried!

Although Xu Wenhui was not as worried as Zhang Kai, he tried his best to point out these key points in order to deal with the four-bedroom and five-bedroom Gu family! (End of chapter)
