Chapter 129

Yuan Su and Li Xiangyu's wedding is scheduled for the end of the year, and there are less than three months left for preparation.

It took three months to prepare for a grand wedding, but Li Xiangyu insisted on finishing it within the year. There was no other way, so the eldest lady had to hurry up and do it.

Li Xiangyu hasn't gone back to Gao's house yet, but he will go back for a walk occasionally.

The Gao family's attitude towards her was just as she said, no one bullied her, no one showed her face, but, no one paid attention to her.

She ran into Gao Lingfeng several times and wanted to talk to him, but Gao Lingfeng just greeted her lightly and then left, which made her feel very aggrieved.

There is a person in the Gao family who is very enthusiastic about her.

This person's name is Gao Ling'er, and she is the daughter adopted by the eldest lady. She is sixteen this year, and she has already started talking about kissing, but she has not yet confirmed who she is.

Gao Ling'er came to the Marquis Mansion when she was ten years old. She was originally the granddaughter of a cousin of Lord Gao Marquis. She was relegated to the Southern Manland by the late Emperor for committing a crime. Only Gao Ling'er escaped and lived with his grandmother.

When Gao Ling'er was ten years old, her grandmother died of illness, so Lord Gao ordered someone to bring her to Beijing, and took her under the lap of the eldest lady as her daughter.

Li Xiangyu began to look down on Gao Ling'er, thinking that she was born as an orphan and was treated like a young lady only after being adopted by the Hou's mansion. At first, she ignored Gao Ling'er.

But after that, no one in the mansion was willing to get close to her, and none of her brothers and sisters were willing to talk to her, so she became annoyed and started dating Gao Ling'er.

Gao Ling'er respects Li Xiangyu very much, and always calls her older sister and younger sister, intimate and sweet. Slowly, Li Xiangyu also changed from being contemptuous at first to being willing to accept it.

Gao Ling'er was also very willing to give Li Xiangyu things, all of which were her most precious, and she was not stingy at all.

Li Xiangyu occasionally returns some gifts, but they are all small things. Li Xiangyu is afraid of poverty, so she attaches great importance to gold and silver treasures and is very persistent. Because of this, she refuses to return Qinghe's relics to old lady.

On this day, Gao Ling'er gave Li Xiangyu another gold bracelet, and shook Li Xiangyu's arm and said, "My dear sister, take me to the General's Mansion for a few days, okay?"

Li Xiangyu asked with a smile, "Why do you want to live in the General's Mansion?"

Gao Ling'er pouted, "They can go to Ningshan for vacation every year, but they don't take me there. I also want to go on vacation, but it's not far away, so I have to go to the General's Mansion."

What Gao Linger said about them refers to the grandchildren of Lord Gao Hou. Naturally, her adopted daughter is not comparable to her own, and the eldest lady has no feelings for her. In short, she has no worries about eating and drinking, and then finds a husband's family for her. Once you get married, you have an account.

Li Xiangyu wanted to show off her majesty as the mistress in the General's Mansion, so that the little orphan girl would admire him even more, so she agreed, and asked Gao Ling'er to report to the eldest lady and stay in the General's Mansion for a few days.

Gao Ling'er was so happy that she immediately went to pack her things, and followed Li Xiangyu back to the General's Mansion that day.

At this time, Li Xiangyu didn't know that this Gao Ling'er would ruin her reputation in the future and lead to a terrible death.Just like back then, when Qinghe rescued her, he never thought that he would die tragically at the hands of this little orphan girl.

Let's not talk about it later.

The day when Caiyue will marry Beimo is approaching day by day, and Caiyue still enters the palace every day. She no longer asks Concubine Shang to give her ice lotus immediately, but only asks Concubine Shang to show her, but, Concubine Shang I have been pushing and resisting all the time, but I just don't take it out and give it to her.

Caiyue had no choice but to go back to the mansion and talk to King Huainan about her doubts.

King Huainan originally did not agree with Caiyu sacrificing himself to save his son's leg, but after the matter had been settled, he had no choice but now, after hearing Caiyue's reaction from Concubine Shang Gui, he began to wonder if Concubine Shang was deceiving her intentionally. Perhaps, she doesn't have ice lotus at all.

Although King Huainan is a martial artist and has no scheming skills, he is quite popular in Beijing and has certain connections. He ordered people to find out the whereabouts of Binglianhua.

Within two days, news came back that there were ice lotuses, but it was said that they were in the hands of the Snow Mountain people. However, the news also pointed out that Qi Shangshu had sought out the Snow Mountain people, so the King of Huainan suspected that the concubine Shang Gui The ice lotus in his hand was obtained from the snow mountain people.

After confirming that there was an ice lotus, King Huainan felt more at ease, and told Caiyue. Caiyue thought about it all night, and asked King Huainan to go to Xueshanren and ask if Xueshanren gave the ice lotus to Master Qi or Mrs. Shang Gui.

In order to make sure everything was safe, King Huainan went to find the Xueshan people.

However, Xueshan people generally don't meet strangers casually, and they need Chu Jinyu's recommendation. In desperation, Huainan King had no choice but to find Chu Jinyu first.

Chu Jinyu couldn't help being surprised when he heard that King Huainan asked the snow mountain people about the ice lotus, "Is it the ice lotus again?"

King Huainan pretended not to know and asked, "Someone asked the Snow Mountain Man for ice lotus recently? I don't know who it is?"

Chu Jinyu said: "Isn't it? Master Qi also asked Xiao Wang to find Xueshan people before, saying that he didn't know where he heard the news that Xueshan people had ice lotus flowers in their hands, and took a large sum of money to buy them from him. .”

King Huainan held his breath, "Did the Snow Mountain Man sell it to him?"

Chu Jinyu smiled, "How can I sell the ice lotus if it is not in the hands of the Xueshan people? Besides, this ice lotus is very precious. We in Daliang cannot find a second one. Even if the Xueshan people really have ice lotus, they will not be willing Sold it to Lord Qi."

When King Huainan heard this, his blood froze involuntarily, "The fifth prince is saying that Master Qi didn't get the ice lotus?"

"As far as Xiao Wang knows, there is no such thing."

King Huainan said in a daze, "Then could he have obtained it from other places?"

Chu Jinyu shook his head, "It's impossible. Xiao Wang said just now that there is only one ice lotus in Liangguo. Mr. Qi probably doesn't have an ice lotus in his hands."

When King Huainan heard this, he was furious immediately, and said through gritted teeth, "Okay, that's great, it's on my head."

Seeing his agitated expression, Chu Jinyu couldn't help asking, "My lord, what's the matter? Who plotted against you?"

King Huainan was furious, and he left angrily without responding to Chu Jinyu.

After King Huainan left, he wanted to go to Lord Qi, but after thinking about it carefully, Lord Qi has never shown up before, so what's the use of looking for him?

After much deliberation, he had no choice but to go to the palace to find Concubine Shang Gui and question her directly.

He has nothing to be afraid of now, for the sake of his daughter, he is going all out.

He returned to the mansion, intending to enter the palace early tomorrow morning.

Seeing that he came back angry, Caiyue asked about the situation, and Caiyue was dumbfounded when she heard that Concubine Shang Gui didn't have ice lotus.Although she always guessed that she might be cheated, but when she was sure that she was cheated, she couldn't accept it.

However, it has to be said that Caiyue is more sensible than King Huainan. After she calmed down, she carefully analyzed Chu Jinyu's words, then grabbed King Huainan's arm and asked, "Father, the fifth prince said that Daliang is just here!" One, Master Qi should not have an ice lotus in his hands, did he say that? Is that the original words?"
