Chapter 160: The Concubine

Lu Qing thought of his grandson-in-law Yang Fang. Although he had never approved of this man, after the Lu family got into trouble, Yang Fang did not divorce his wife like others did, which showed that this man was still reliable.

After thinking for a while, he said in a deep voice, "Report her safety."

It has been so long, and I think my granddaughter must be missing her family. I would like to take this opportunity to send her a letter to let her know she is safe, so that she can feel at ease.

Song was relieved, but still a little worried, "Father, why don't you just not write this letter?"

The son-in-law must be in a difficult situation now. If he receives the letter and someone knows about it, it will be bad.

Lu Zhou held the pen and had just finished writing the letter to the Song family, but he paused for a long time and did not put pen to paper when writing the letter to his daughter.

His wife's concerns are also his concerns. Given the current situation of his family, it is better not to cause trouble for his son-in-law. Perhaps the family will need help from his son-in-law in the future.

Lu Qing looked at his eldest son. As a father and a grandfather, how could he not know the concerns of the young couple?

"You don't want to write this letter to Tiao'er?"

Lu Zhou sighed, "Father, Yang Fang is now an official in the court. If this letter is sent and someone with ulterior motives finds out, it will probably cause trouble for Yang Fang, and Tiao'er will be blamed for it."

He was worried that his daughter would be in a difficult situation.

Lu Qing snorted coldly while leaning on his cane, "If he blames his wife because of this letter, I think there is no need for Tiao'er to stay in the Yang family."

Song: "."

Lu Zhou: "."

That's not what I meant.

Lu Qing reached out and took the pen from Lu Zhou's hand, "If you two don't write, I'll write it myself!"

It's just a report of safety. If the Yang family really minds this, I'm afraid my granddaughter's life in the Yang family will not be easy.

The next morning, Gu Xingzhao got up without even eating and rushed to Gudai to collect the letters. There were more than a dozen letters, and each of them specified where to send them.

I saw that there was a letter addressed to Lu Youtiao, but it was actually sent to the family of Yang Fang, an editor of the Hanlin Academy in the capital.

She quickly remembered that this was the old man's granddaughter, the one who married into the Yang family, and she seemed to be pregnant.

Gu Xingzhao immediately became concerned and assured Lu Qing that the letter would be delivered to Lu Youtiao.

She immediately took the letter to He's house to find He Zhen.

After hearing the intention of the god, He Zhen accepted the letter and said, "Don't worry, my ancestor. I will definitely take care of this matter."

Knowing that the gods cared about the Lu family, she also assured Gu Xingzhao that she would let the people around her handle this matter. As for the letter to be sent to the Yang family, she would go there in person and hand it to Lu Youtiao personally.

Gu Xingzhao was confident in He Zhen. He knew that no matter what was given to her, she would always be able to handle it. But when he thought of Liu Xiangbai, he probably wanted her to leave the capital.

She asked, "Are you going to the North with your daughter?"

He Zhen shook her head. The beverage shop had just opened and it was the time to make money. She was reluctant to leave at this time. Moreover, this was a task assigned to her by the gods, and she must get it done for her.

"It is better for me to stay in the capital."

Gu Xingzhao frowned, "Have you discussed this with Liu Xiangbai?"

Would Liu Xiangbai agree to let He Zhen stay in this troubled place?

He Zhen nodded, "He mentioned this to me in my dream last night. The final decision is up to me."

Gu Xingzhao didn't ask any more questions. After all, it was the couple's own business to decide.

For example, the last time the house was robbed, it was handled very well. He Zhen let everyone else who was interested in her know that she was not a woman who was easy to bully. Now, no one in the entire capital dares to climb over the wall of He's house.

"If you have any questions, just come to me and tell me."

"Don't worry."

After Gu Xingzhao left, He Zhen did not dare to delay and immediately arranged for someone to deliver the letter. Fearing that it would be too obvious for two people to deliver the letter, she sent four people in the courtyard, both men and women, to deliver it, to conceal their whereabouts.

As for Lu Youtiao's letter, she personally took it to Yang's house and asked to see Madam Yang, but was stopped at the door of the house. She stuffed a lot of silver into her pocket before she was informed.

After a long while, someone finally came out of the mansion. He looked like a capable person and looked at He Zhen. "May I know who the lady is?"

He Zhen had already thought of a good excuse when she came. "My last name is He, and my given name is Zhen. I was a good friend of Madam Yang before she got married. Now I am doing some fireworks business and have just opened a beverage shop. I want to send some to Madam Yang for her to try. Please let her know. She will come to see me when she finds out."

As she said this, she was still holding a food box with a few drinks in it.

Nowadays in the capital, everyone knows the reputation of fireworks. There is only one store selling fireworks in the capital, and his surname is He.

The steward said in a deep voice, "Madam, please wait a moment."

He hurried into the mansion, and soon ran out again and said to He Zhen, "My wife has caught a cold recently, so it is inconvenient for her to see guests. I hope Madam He will forgive me."

He Zhen was slightly stunned, but quickly reacted and handed over the food box in her hand. "It's okay. Please pass these drinks on to her. Please take care of yourself. Thank you."

"You're welcome, ma'am."

The steward took the food box, turned around and went into the mansion without stopping.

After leaving Yang's house, He Zhen went straight home, took the paper tube and talked to the gods.

"The Yang family's style is not good. I spent a lot of money, and the people outside went into the mansion to pass on the message. The steward who came out said that Lu Youtiao had caught a cold and would not see guests."

Gu Xingzhao was looking at the account book of the beverage shop that he had just received from He Zhen today. The business was better than he had imagined. In a short while, he would surely earn more than Fireworks.

After all, this drink can be drunk every day, but fireworks cannot be set off every night.

After hearing what He Zhen said, she frowned slightly, "Did you catch a cold?"

He Zhen responded, "That's what the people in the Yang Mansion said, but I think it's probably an excuse. I tried to test him at the time, and he didn't even go to pass on the message. It must be that the Yang family didn't allow her to see anyone outside."

She saw that the person who came out was a steward, so she was cautious. If the steward really went back and told the story, he would know that Lu Youtiao did not have any close friend named He Zhen.

After a long while, seeing that the god did not speak, He Zhen asked again, "Do you want me to find some people to get some information?"

The Yang Mansion is not well guarded, so it's not difficult to get information by spending some money.

Gu Xingzhao then put down the account book. He had just been thinking about whether to go and see Lu Youtiao or tell the old man about this first.

Hearing what He Zhen said, he immediately agreed, "Okay, you ask someone to get some information first."

He Zhen received the task and quickly found someone to do it, and he also got the news quickly.

"The Yang family has recently invited a doctor, but it was not for Madam Yang's cold, but to prescribe medicine for Yang Fang's new concubine to preserve her pregnancy."

Gu Xingzhao's face darkened slightly, and his voice unconsciously became colder, "Concubine?"
