Chapter 77 Part 02: Heir

 

^^

 

Lin Wei Xi was suddenly a little curious, she coughed, and pretended to ask casually: "Wangye, how exactly did you punished Shizi? I don't know what to say when asked about it today."

 

Gu Hui Yan replied indifferently: "It's nothing, a small punishment is not a big deal."

 

This was just a small punishment... Lin Wei Xi was speechless, she half-jokingly said: "Then I should really thank Wangye, I was so foolish, but Wangye did not punish me."

 

Gu Hui Yan laughed: "How can you be the same."

 

This was not the first time Lin Wei Xi had heard from Gu Hui Yan that she was special. Lin Wei Xi unknowingly smile arrogantly and self-confidently, then said: "Wangye, Shizi Consort stayed at her maiden house for several days. But there was no movement from Shizi. He didn't even show up when Shizi Consort came back today. Today in Duke Yingguo Mansion, I don’t have the nerve to say, but isn’t Shizi too cold toward Shizi Consort?"

 

"The matter of their husband and wife, let them handle it by themselves. If there is a conflict, they come to look for you, when the husband and wife have a cold war also come to look for you. Why you have to put so much effort."

 

Although saying this, but if the son and daughter-in-law had an ugly quarrel, which family’s mother-in-law did not step forward to mediate and coax the daughter-in-law after scolding the son? Lin Wei Xi also didn't want to take care of these things, but she was still a little hesitant: "If I really don't care about anything, is that okay?"

 

"That as it should be." Although Gu Hui Yan was still smiling, his eyes suddenly revealed something meaningful, "Why do you care so much about their husband and wife?"

 

Lin Wei Xi was pardoned by Yan Wang himself, and was so happy. Suddenly she heard the next question, her radiant eyes paused, and then like she didn’t care, continued to pick up the cherries: "After all, I am their elder. The younger couple are at odds, how can the elders not care?"

 

Gu Hui Yan just smiled, did not say whether he believed it or not. Lin Wei Xi was afraid that Gu Hui Yan would turn over the old account, quickly changed the subject: "Wangye, I met a fourteen or fifteen years old boy on the way to Duke Yingguo Mansion. He has a particularly good memory, is sensitive to mathematics, and has great courage. I think as long as there is a suitable opportunity, his future’s achievements will not be low."

 

Gu Hui Yan also heard this matter from his subordinates. Someone dared to run into Lin Wei Xi's carriage, how could it be hidden from him. It's just that Gu Hui Yan didn't expect Lin Wei Xi's evaluation of this person was so high.

 

Gu Hui Yan suppressed his original words and asked, "Do you admire him very much?"

 

"Yes, who doesn't like smart and hardworking people."

 

Since Lin Wei Xi liked it, Gu Hui Yan instead didn’t know where to start. There was a vague feeling in Gu Hui Yan's heart, Lin Wei Xi was too concerned about the affairs of Duke Yingguo Mansion. He asked: "There are so many talented people in the world, the diligent and tenacious humble scholar are as vast as stars. Why do you care about this Gao Ke?"

 

Of course it was because his surname was also Gao. Lin Wei Xi didn't say the specific reason, so she could only smile, and said vaguely: "It's just fate. Hey, Wangye, how do you know his name is Gao Ke?"

 

"Answer my question."

 

Lin Wei Xi snorted in her heart, her behavior remained the same, but the expression on her face quickly became fierce: "You mean to me?!"

 

"No."

 

Lin Wei Xi snorted, turned away and said nothing, leaving Gu Hui Yan with the view of her back. Gu Hui Yan was helpless and could only coax her: "Since you don't like it, then forget it. There are many talented children from the subordinate family of Yan fief. If you like it, I will let their madam bring them in to relieve your boredom. "

 

Lin Wei Xi smoothly passed this ordeal. She took advantage of the situation to relax her expression and said, "It doesn't have to be so troublesome. I just saw an intelligent child and like it very much."

 

Gu Hui Yan's heart moved, faintly testing with a sentence, "The mansion is indeed a little dull now. It's okay to let their madam walk around with their children more, and make the mansion more lively."

 

The topic suddenly turned to children, Lin Wei Xi’s heart became cold, and the smile on her face immediately faded. This was not a pretense anger like before, but sincere from the heart, inside and outside was cold and lonely.

 

Lin Wei Xi finally realized that Yan Wang was testing her. But test her for what? Whether or not she covet Shizi’s position? Lin Wei Xi didn't want to talk about this topic, she instinctively resisted the possible results. And when Gu Hui Yan saw Lin Wei Xi's cold expression, he thought she was unwilling.

 

The atmosphere that was still harmonious just now became stiff. After only a moment of silence, Gu Hui Yan spoke: "If you feel bored, you can summon people to come in anytime, and doesn’t have to limit it to the subordinates inside. Before I return to the mansion. I was talking to the Emperor about the summer vacation. If there is no accident, this year can go to the outside palace to escape the summer heat, so I came home late."

 

Lin Wei Xi also cooperatively responded: "It turns out that Wangye and His Majesty was talking about going out of the palace, it's no wonder coming home so late. Then these few days, I should pack up and prepare to go to the outside palace?"

 

Gu Hui Yan responded with a low tone and said, "You can arrange it."
