Good baby, you've let me be intimate with you, I'll promise you anything. "Gu Tingwei's hand reached out to embrace that delicate jade body, his eyes filled with desire.
You Qi gently pressed against Gu Tingwei's chest, her eyes like silk as she said, "Don't be anxious, Master, the matter I'm talking to you about is about your beautiful niece."
"What about her?" Gu Tingwei was startled.
"I've heard that she's been very intimate with a bandit recently." You Qi gently drew circles on his chest, raising her head to reveal a fawning expression, "Does Master not feel it's a pity?"
Gu Tingwei's face was full of anger, "That evil creature killed my sister, she's a bastard that shouldn't have been born into this world, and you say she's still hooking up with a bandit? This is simply preposterous! "
"Doesn't Master feel it's a pity?" You Qi hinted.
"Pity what?" Gu Tingwei asked.
You Qi said, "She's the most famous Goddess Ziwei on the List of Beauties, have you never been moved?"
"What are you talking about?" Gu Tingwei was startled, his brows furrowing.
"Master, please calm your anger," You Qi said in a sweet voice, "That bastard is a sinner of our Gu family, you accepting her is a great gift to her. In the future, no one in the family will dare bully her, she'll be grateful to you. "
"Absurd!" Gu Tingwei angrily rebuked, "Although she's a bastard, she's still my sister's daughter, how can I have any thoughts about her, if this gets out I'll be the laughing stock of the world, my grandmother won't let me off!"
"Master," You Qi let out a long moan, "This matter needs to be looked at from both sides. First, Phoenix Hall has always been ruled by women, it already owes you good men. Like Master, you have ambitions but you can't use them, being given the title of Northern Envoy is simply using a sledgehammer to crack a nut."
Gu Tingwei was very pleased, "Hmph, that's right, with my ability, giving Phoenix Hall to me is the right thing to do."
"Yes, but the Gu family's secret arts can only be practiced by women, once a man practices it, he'll burn himself to death, there's nothing we can do about it." You Qi smiled sweetly and said, "Old Master, what kind of talent do you have? Yet you have to bow down to a woman. Marrying that vile spawn as a concubine is also a kind of compensation."
Gu Tingwei's anger faded a little, and he fell into deep thought.
Striking while the iron was hot, You Qi said, "Because of this matter, Hall Master will definitely not obstruct Master. Why don't we take this opportunity to deliver a gift that will please the Master and conveniently mention it? Isn't this double happiness?"
"Secondly, you just said to look at it from two aspects," Gu Tingwei said.
You Qi said, "Secondly, that vile spawn's beauty is top-notch. If you do not accept her, in the future she will have to marry someone. Rather than benefiting others, it is better to benefit Master."
Gu Tingwei stared at the stunner in his arms and sneered, "You say it like you're thinking for me. Don't you have any benefits at all?"
You Qi's eyes were like silk as she said, "Old Master's eyes are like a torch, there is really nothing that can be hidden from you."
Gu Tingwei said, "Quickly speak!"
You Qi said, "Old Master, although you have placed this manor under this servant's name, in the end it is still surnamed Gu. This niece of yours has not married and can be considered well-behaved and obedient. If in the future she marries a powerful person and urges her to seize the manor, then if the Hall Master finds out, Old Master will not have a good time and this servant will also suffer."
Gu Tingwei said coldly, "So you are urging me to accept her so that you can rest easy in the future?"
You Qi frowned and said pitifully, "This servant is planning for the future. Could it be that after Old Master takes this servant's body, you will abandon me?"
"Good, good, good. You are right, you are right." Gu Tingwei frowned and then relaxed, coaxing in a good voice, "You do not need to worry about this matter. I will definitely think of a way to obtain my grandmother's consent. As long as my grandmother agrees, that vile spawn will not be able to escape the palm of my hand. "
"Old Master, you are really good." You Qi's tears turned into a smile.
The more Gu Tingwei thought about it, the more tempted he became.
"This Gu Tingwei is a headstrong and self-opinionated person. He is stupid and doesn't know himself."
In the tea house, Zhao Ting recalled the past and let out a disdainful sneer, "I will let Young Master know. This subordinate used to be a guard in the merchant group and had many dealings with him. He originally held a lucrative position in Phoenix Hall, but because of an absurd matter, he was chased away to become a Northern Envoy. "
"What absurd matter?" Yan Li said.
"He had a cousin who was peerlessly beautiful. Because she refused his marriage proposal, she was drugged and forced into an illicit affair." Zhao Ting said with disdain, "Originally, this matter was just a marriage. Who knew that the woman was so staunch and committed suicide by jumping into the river. Although Phoenix Hall is the leader of the Gu family, the side branches are not without experts. Gu Tingwei was almost chopped into minced meat by his cousins. It was Hall Master Gu who came forward to calm things down."
"Really a beast!" Li Xiang Jun said with disgust.
Yan Li said, "The Gu family produced such a person, and Hall Master Gu actually only gave a demotion as punishment?"
Zhao Ting said, "Men cannot learn the secret arts of Phoenix Hall. Because of this, Hall Master Gu felt very guilty and did not give a heavy punishment. However, Gu Tingwei was first locked up in the water prison for half a year before he was released. "
"What about the other members of the Gu family?" Yan Li asked.
Zhao Ting said, "The eldest is Gu Tingkun, the Deputy Hall Master of Phoenix Hall. The second is Gu Tingyu, the Chief Hall Master of Southern Phoenix Territory's Shun Tian Manor. As for those aunts, most of them have married into rich families. Only two of them have the means to let their husbands marry into the family, so that they can lean on the big tree that is Phoenix Hall and enjoy the shade. Both of them have lucrative positions. "
"Oh." Yan Li nodded, thought for a moment, and said, "Alright, go call the shopkeeper."
"Okay." Zhao Ting did not say anything else and ran to call the shopkeeper.
When the shopkeeper came to the private room, he was naturally puzzled. He carefully said, "Sir, it was just an accident. You …"
Yan Li waved his hand and interrupted him, "What is the name of the one who served us tea?"
"Ah, that one. He has a hard life. He studied for many years, but he can't awaken his true name. He has a sour taste, please don't …"
Zhao Ting grabbed him, "Just answer the young master's question. What's the point of saying all these unnecessary things?"
"His, his name is Fang Wenzhuo. He has a hard life. He was captured by bandits. How can he still be alive? Do you still want to make a fuss …" The shopkeeper was scared out of his wits, trembling as he spoke.
"Let him go," Yan Li said.
"Yes." Zhao Ting quickly let go.
Yan Li said, "Shopkeeper, don't be alarmed. This young master's study is in need of an obedient person. This Fang Wenzhuo, I find him pleasing to the eye. Just now, he has decided to go to my house to do some paperwork. Now that he has been captured, as his new master, I naturally have to go and get him back. As the saying goes, diplomacy before force. Shopkeeper, please help me send an invitation. Just say that Swallow Dock wants to ask for a favor from Nantian Estate. "
"Oh, so it's like that." The shopkeeper let out a sigh of relief and immediately smiled, "That's great. This Fang Wenzhuo brat can be saved. This lowly one will go write it now, I will write it now." Saying this, he left without delay.
Huang Shaoyu yawned, and said, "Boss, isn't this matter in the bag? Is there a need to go through so much trouble?"
Li Xiang Jun smiled, "Commander Huang, since Swallow Dock is doing legitimate business, everything must be done according to the rules. Otherwise, it will be troublesome if someone finds out."
…
Gu Tingwei held the invitation, his face gloomy. "What is the background of Swallow Dock?"
The bandit with the scar on his face had just returned from the teahouse. When he was asked this question, he disdainfully sneered, "Ha! It should be those three cowards. Just now, I was beating and capturing people in front of them, but they didn't dare to tell me on the spot. Instead, they sent an invitation to pay a visit to the manor. I'm afraid they want to report me to you. "
"Scar, you idiot, why are you causing trouble?" Gu Tingwei couldn't help but curse.
"Fourth Brother Gu, you were the one who told me to patrol the teahouse and control the mouths of those lowly servants so that they wouldn't gossip!" Scar's complexion changed, "What, you're teaching me a lesson?"
"I only told you to teach the lowly servants a lesson, not to provoke others!" Gu Tingwei angrily said.
Scar sneered, "Fourth Brother Gu, you are only a Northern Envoy of Phoenix Hall. If it weren't for Martial House Lord Gu, would my Golden Hook Bandits listen to your orders?"
Gu Tingwei said, "You make it sound so nice, but you've already taken 30% of the manor's profits. Do you think you're wronged?"
Scar said, "Humph, since I'm not your subordinate, don't tell me what to do. If you annoy me, I'll just break up. Who's afraid of who?"
Gu Tingwei suppressed his anger and said, "Scar, don't beat around the bush. Falling out won't do anyone any good. Why aren't you sitting in my seat? Let's deal with this person first! "
"That's fine." Scar sneered, "You didn't dare to speak in the teahouse, only trembling in fear. Now you want to come here and complain? I want to see if they think that I, Scar, am just an errand boy that's easy to bully."
As he spoke, he went to sit in the seat of honor.
Gu Tingwei's face was cold. He stood to the side, wanting to see just who this person was.
Not long after, Yan Li and the others were led in by the envoy. They were surprised to see Scar sitting in the seat of honor.
"What? Do you think that I, Scar, am just an errand boy?" Scar sneered, "You want to make me unlucky? I didn't kill you, but you came to me instead. I just happen to have some anger, so I'll lend you a few to vent it. Why don't you roll to your grandpa's saber and accept your death? "
"Catch him." Yan Li said lightly.
"Yes." Huang Shaoyu was about to move when Zhao Ting disappeared in a flash. When he appeared again, he had already grabbed Scar's neck, grabbed him, and slammed him onto the ground.
Scar was attacked by a sharp pain in an instant. He felt as if his back was about to break. He could not help but spit out a mouthful of blood. His eyes were about to pop out of their sockets. He could not believe that his true energy was like a decoration. He could not resist at all. When he saw Zhao Ting's face clearly, he could not help but scream, "Shadowless Divine Marquis, you, didn't you retire from Jianghu?"
Zhao Ting took a rope and tied Scar up. He threw him to the side and grinned, "Who said that retired people can't come out again?"
"So it's Lord Divine Marquis." Gu Tingwei hurriedly stood up and cupped his hands. "You really bring light to my humble house. Please take a seat."
"Are you trying to hurt me?" Zhao Ting said.
"Why do you say that?" Gu Tingwei was startled.
Zhao Ting made way, slightly bowed, and gave Yan Li a flattering smile. "Young Master, please take a seat."
