Chapter 1188 First Encounter

Wang Yue was really not betting on whether Gu Jiusi would stop him. He just felt that since the other party was so vigilant, he could only contact someone else.

As for the matter of Xu Xu Tuzhi, it was not within the scope of his consideration at all.

After all, the emperor's envoy was already waiting at Changfeng Ferry, and he didn't have much time to discuss with a dude. What's more, this dude is the kind of person who only spends money and has fun and doesn't care about anything else.

In fact, he was overthinking it. When he arrived on his boat, Gu Jiusi had no intention of stopping him, as if he was certain that Wang Yue would find an excuse to go back.

Wang Yue did not turn around and talk to him as Gu Jiusi imagined. After he got on his boat, he saluted the three of them again, then asked his servants to remove the wooden planks, and then returned to the boat without hesitation. warehouse.

After Wang Yue's figure disappeared and the ship quickly broke away from contact, Yang Wenchang, who had never reported his name to Wang Yue, suddenly said, "Brother Chen, Brother Gu, did we make a wrong judgment?"

Chen Xun waved his hand carelessly, and said seriously, "It's just a mistake, so what? He is from Qingzhou, and we are in Yangzhou. We are so far apart. I don't know when we will meet next time. Do you still want to be friends with him?"

After hearing Chen Xun's words, Gu Jiusi shook his head in disapproval and said with some tangle, "I seem to have lost money."

Yang Wenchang looked back at Gu Jiusi in confusion, and asked in confusion, "What did you lose?"

Chen Xun immediately stood up, clapped his hands, and then said very depressedly, "Then the boy took Brother Gu's cloak away. Is there really a chance to meet again?"

The three of them chatted nonchalantly. They didn't know what they were talking about, but they laughed.

…

After Wang Yue returned to the boat, he felt a little warm, and then he thought that he had put on his clothes.

But he couldn't adjust the bow of the boat and go back to deliver clothes, so he didn't hesitate and asked his men to find out the identities of the other two people, and then the family would send a Qingzhou horse back.

Moreover, the cold in the south is different from that in the north. Just like the legendary magic attacks and physical attacks, it is really uncomfortable without a cloak.

After figuring it out, he no longer struggled, and took the boat to the dock in the city. As soon as he walked out of the cabin, he saw some people waiting at the dock.

Seeing Wang Yue coming out of the cabin, the leader greeted Wang Yue very politely, and then said respectfully, "You must be the prince, I am the housekeeper of the Ye family. The master and eldest son of my second room are not here, so I can only Let the villain come to greet the distinguished guest, and please don’t take offense, Master.”

Wang Yue waved his hand carelessly, and quickly urged, "It doesn't matter, just lead the way."

After he finished speaking, he walked off the boat and walked towards the shore. Although he was grand, he was very majestic, which made the Ye family's housekeeper dare not be careless and followed cautiously.

Before mounting his horse and heading to Ye's house, he waved to Wang Ping, the deputy commander of the guards, and whispered a few words to him, before Wang Ping left with a few people.

…

After Wang Yue came to Ye's house, because the second room of Ye's house was not there, he paid a courtesy to Mrs. Ye and then followed the housekeeper to the courtyard where Mr. Ye was.

The reason why Wang Yue is arranged here is because the Ye family currently has too many guests, and it is really not suitable to entertain customers like Wang Yue. If there is any conflict, then the Ye family will offend the Wang Yue family.

Therefore, only the wing room in the Ye family's eldest son's courtyard is more suitable for Wang Yue. After all, the absence of the eldest son who lives in the main room in the courtyard is equivalent to Wang Yue living in this courtyard alone.

After settling in, Wang Yue didn't want to go to Yangzhou city to play. He kicked his servants out and went to the study room on the second floor, where he started to cross his legs and practice his exercises.

As for contacting the Gu family, he planned to inquire about the local power situation in Guizhou before making further judgment. After all, other forces are targeting the Gu family, and Wang Shanquan, as the governor of Guizhou, will definitely not let them go.

In this world, Wang Yue felt that practicing was very strenuous. After practicing for a while, he just felt that his energy and energy were better, and he didn't know when he would be able to develop his internal skills.

Wang Yue performed some sword moves in the room. Although he felt refreshed, he looked a bit like a flower stand because he couldn't use his inner strength. He sheathed his sword dejectedly and pushed open the window of the room.

The moment she opened the window, she heard a clear girl's voice coming from the courtyard not far away, "It's not good, miss, please go over and have a look, madam, she is ill. "

Wang Yue was a little curious. Didn't he just meet the wife of the Ye family? Why did you faint suddenly?

So, he stepped to the window and looked out of the window. What comes into view is an exquisite small garden, which is covered with red plums. Among the red plums, there is a pavilion standing in the middle.

At this moment, there was a woman wearing light pink clothes and a white cloak under the pavilion, holding a hand stove and talking to a maid holding an umbrella outside the hall, and behind her, stood a little maid in pink clothes.

From a distance, Wang Yue could not see clearly. I just felt that the woman's appearance looked familiar.

The little maid holding an umbrella looked at the woman holding the stove and said excitedly, "The madam has no money left in her account. There has been heavy snow recently, the ferry has been blocked by heavy fog, and the price of medicinal materials has increased several times. , but Aunt Yue refused to give me a penny more, so the eldest lady had to put aside money to buy medicine herself, but now she really can’t afford it.”

Wang Yue was a little surprised when he heard this. A eldest lady should be held hostage by an aunt. She must be living a cowardly life.

He observed that Mrs. Ye was not an unreasonable person, and she would not let the concubine at home hold the eldest wife hostage, which meant that the small courtyard behind did not belong to the Ye family.

It seems that the owner of the house next door is a man who dotes on his concubines and kills his wives.

After hearing what the maid said, the young lady anxiously said to the little girl behind her, "Yin Hong, go get some silver from my account and take out all the jewelry in the house."

The little girl in pink clothes said anxiously after hearing what the young lady said, "But, young lady, I don't have much money, and the jewelry is not expensive. The price is so expensive now, I guess it's not enough."

Wang Yue listened to the conversation between the master and the servant, and couldn't help but feel pity in his heart. He was willing to help, but he didn't want to cause any trouble.

After all, he observed that the mistress did not have a mother to protect her, and she was a little thin, but her temperament was quite gentle. If placed in another house, it would appear normal, but in the house of a man who spoiled his concubines and killed his wives, it would appear a bit strange.

Wang Yue felt that this girl had her own way of survival, so he would not forcefully interfere.

After all, he will leave soon after helping this time, so he won't be able to help next time, but will cause unnecessary trouble to this girl.

So, he didn't continue to listen and returned home without hesitation.

…

Early the next morning, after breakfast, he greeted the old lady of the Ye family and went out.

As soon as Wang Yue arrived at the door of the Ye family's house, Wang Ping, the deputy commander of the Wang family's bodyguards, appeared in front of him.

He was not surprised at all, and said to Wang Ping very seriously, "How is it? What is Wang Shanquan doing?"

When Wang Ping saw Wang Yue's inquiry, he said seriously, "The governor of Wang has violently conquered the Prefecture and used his troops hard. The people are suffering unspeakably."

When Wang Yue heard what Wang Ping said, he knew that Wang Shanquan would not let go of the Gu family.

You know, even the emperor wants to take advantage of the Gu family's money by launching troops, let alone my king's good power?

Thinking of this, his more stubborn character gained the upper hand again, and he said to Wang Ping very seriously, "If we want to move the Gu family to Qingzhou, our current manpower alone will definitely not be enough. I need a team. We can't fight." Under the banner of Qingzhou. By the way, who were the two people who followed Gu Jiusi yesterday?"

Wang Ping had already inquired clearly, so he quickly replied, "Those two are Chen Xun and Yang Wenchang, who are Gu Jiusi's best friends."

Wang Yue nodded noncommittally and ordered calmly, "Give each of the three of them a horse from our Qingzhou."

Wang Ping saw that Wang Yue's words were majestic and had the aura of a master, so he did not hesitate and immediately respectfully accepted the order to arrange the delivery of the letter.

…

After Wang Yue waited for him to leave, he asked someone to go directly to Gu's house to send a greeting note. He felt that no matter what he said, he had to explain it clearly to the other party.

After arranging all this, Wang Yue began to wander around Zhuozhou City. He found that in this city, the industry serving dignitaries was quite popular. There were very few shops where ordinary people could live, and there was nothing like what he had done elsewhere. The world has seen the prosperity of Jiangnan.

As he was walking, he suddenly heard a familiar female voice saying, "Miss, do you think the white fox ball that man is wearing is the one you made?"

After the girl's voice finished speaking, another familiar girl said soon after, "It's true! Is he Gu Jiusi?"

Wang Yue heard that these two masters and servants were the masters and servants of the house next to the Ye family. I wonder what they wanted from that playboy Gu Jiusi?

He was a little curious, so he stopped and looked at the master and servant. Only then did I realize that these two people had dressed up in disguise today.

The heroine wears a cloak, making it impossible to tell whether she is a boy or a girl, but the maid is dressed like a servant.

However, this little girl named Yin Hong's ability to dress up as a woman is a bit clumsy, and it's obvious at a glance that she is a girl.

The Wang family attendants who were following Wang Yue saw Wang Yue stop and stood there quickly.

Seeing Wang Yue stop, the lady in the cloak quickly urged the little maid Yin Hong, "Quick, go and ask!"

The little girl quickly ran to Wang Yue and asked excitedly, "Excuse me, is this Mr. Gu?"

Wang Yue was a little funny. Looking at this little girl, it was too rash to catch up to her without anyone asking her questions clearly.

Before Wang Yue could reply, Wang San, the boy who was following him, stopped the little girl and said, "You have mistaken the person. My young master is not named Gu."

Yin Hong was a little stunned. He pointed at Wang Yue's cloak in a cute way and said seriously, "But where did this young master's cloak come from?"

The boy knew it well. When he saw that Wang Yue had no intention of stopping him, he quickly said with a smile, "Is this? My young master got three horses in exchange for Gu Jiusi."

Yin Hong was a little stunned after hearing this. How much did the three horses cost? The monthly income of their young lady is not enough for several years.

So, she didn't know what to do, so she looked anxiously at Liu Yuru who was standing in the distance, wanting her young lady to make the decision.

The conversation between Wang San and Yin Hong was not quiet, and Liu Yuru could hear it clearly. She felt a little chilly in her heart and didn't know what to do.

You know, if Gu Jiusi bought the cloak like that, she could get the cloak back and give Gu Jiusi the money he paid for the cloak in exchange for it.

However, now that Wang Yue had exchanged it for three horses, even though she was the daughter of a cloth merchant, she still couldn't afford to pay back so much money!

So, she hurriedly stepped forward and asked with the last glimmer of hope, "Master, is what your servant said true?"

After Wang Yue and others stepped forward, they saw through the gap in the woman's hood that the girl looked like Fan Ruoruo.

He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. Unexpectedly, he met an old friend here. It seemed that she was one of the heroines of this drama.

He didn't listen to what the master and servant said later, and he didn't know what the master and servant were going to do, but he couldn't bear to make the girl continue to be sad, so he said with some confusion, "That's what happened, did you encounter any difficulties? Yesterday I saw your master and servant in the garden saying they were sick. Is it because they lacked a doctor?"

After hearing what Wang Yue said, the woman quickly took several steps back vigilantly, as if to avoid a savage beast.

The little girl also hurriedly protected her young lady, and said with some vigilance, "You, why did you peek at others talking? Ah, no, where did you hear that?"

Wang Yue shook his head helplessly. People in this world are so vigilant. He explained helplessly, "I am Wang Yue from Qingzhou. I came to the Ye family as a guest. Yesterday I was arranged to rest in the young master's wing. I happened to overhear the conversation between the three of you, master and servant."

Hearing that Wang Yue was actually a guest of the Ye family, the little girl immediately relaxed a little. She glanced at her young lady and felt a little embarrassed, not knowing whether she should report the truth truthfully.

However, when she thought that the eldest lady was seriously ill now and that the young lady was overly worried, she couldn't care so much and said quickly, "My eldest lady..."

But before he finished speaking, Liu Yuru quickly interrupted and yelled, "Yin Hong!"

The little girl was continuing to talk, but when she heard the young lady's scolding, she quickly closed her mouth.

Liu Yuru didn't know how much Wang Yue had heard, but if she could avoid revealing her family's scandal, it would be better not to reveal it.

So, she gave Wang Yue a blessing, and then said somewhat politely, "Since you are a guest of the Ye family, I won't hide it. The fox fur on the young master was made by a little girl and was accidentally consigned to me by my aunt. "Originally, I was planning to ask for the money back, but now it seems that I can't afford it."

Wang Yue didn't expect Ruoruo in this world to be so stubborn, so he said helplessly, "I heard that your eldest wife is seriously ill. Don't worry, I can lend you money and you can pay me back in the future. It doesn't count." You interest.”

Liu Yuru saw that Wang Yue's words were sincere, so she hesitated a little. After all, she was really short of money.

But she was not familiar with Wang Yue after all, and she didn't know whether what Wang Yue said was true or not. Moreover, Wang Yue said that he was a relative and friend of the Ye family, but Yin Hong often visited the Ye family but had never seen him, which was really incredible.
