The Epic Revenge Chapter 171: Traitor

As Gu Qingzhou guessed, the good show of the Overseer's Mansion is coming.

Gu Qingzhou had dinner and was about to go upstairs to rest when she received a call from the fifth aunt, Tai Huayan.

"Ms. Gu, you cured my illness. I have to thank you. Tomorrow night, I invite you to a banquet at the Governor's Mansion. It's a family banquet, and it happens to be my birthday." .

Gu Qingzhou thought to herself, all this is a bit of a coincidence.

Si Qiongzhi has been persuading the fifth concubine from the very beginning to treat the fifth concubine.

I'm afraid this birthday banquet is also what Si Qiongzhi meant, that is to invite Gu Qingzhou to the Governor's Mansion.

"Okay, first, I wish you a birthday Bi Nanshan." Gu Qingzhou said.

This old-fashioned blessing made the fifth concubine laugh.

After hanging up the phone, Gu Qingzhou went back to the room.

It's just that when Gu Zhang and Gu Ying heard the content of her phone call, their eyes rolled abruptly.

"Mom, Gu Qingzhou is going to the Governor's Mansion again." Gu Xiangyin gritted his teeth.

Last time, the second son of the mayor's family invited Gu Zhang to watch a movie, but nothing happened.

Gu Huang was very annoyed, so he deliberately called up the Wei family twice, but he never met the second son.

This matter hangs in Gu Zhang's heart.

She thought that she should prepare both hands and go to the Si's house more often, so that she might be able to strengthen other dignitaries. Even if you give Wei Gongzi a little pressure, let him pursue more actively.

"I heard that it is a banquet, so there must be many VIPs. Mom, I also want to go." Gu Zhang said.

Gu Ying also said, "Mom, I'm going too!"

The two of them lingered on Qin Zhengzheng.

If it were normal, Qin Zhengzheng would not dare to agree, Gu Qingzhou was too cunning.

But now, the old lady lives in Gu's mansion, and it is easy for her to hold Gu Qingzhou.

"Okay, Mommy will make arrangements." Qin Zhengzheng smiled.

Qin Zhengzheng calmed her daughter, turned around and went to the old lady.

On Saturday morning, it was raining lightly, the drizzle was misty, and there was a chill in winter. Gu Qingzhou changed into a quilted cheongsam.

The leaves of the sycamore tree outside her window have fallen, and the qiu branches are bare, bathed in the drizzle.

Gu Qingzhou went downstairs to have breakfast, and the old lady asked her with a dignified attitude: "I heard, what dance are you going to attend at the Overseer's Mansion?"

"It's not a dance, it's just the fifth concubine's birthday party." Gu Qingzhou said.

The old lady immediately became angry: "It's not decent! What a concubine, that's just a concubine! You will be the second young grandma in the future. Going to the banquet in the concubine's room will make people laugh out loud?"

Fifty years ahead, that's true.

The old lady's words are not bad.

But today's world is different, and the distinction between wives and concubines is long gone.

So many old-fashioned people can't accept the ethos of the new age.

Gu Qingzhou didn't want to befriend Wu Yitai either, she just wanted to secure Si Qiongzhi's last move, lest she make another move next time.

"It was the call from the Overseer's Mansion. If you don't want me to go, I won't go." Gu Qingzhou's brows and eyes are gentle, and his words are soft and soft.

Gu Guizhang heard it next to him, frowned and said to Gu Qingzhou: "How can you not go? If you lose your trust, how will you be a person in the future?"

Then, Gu Guizhang impatiently said to the old lady, "Mom, it's a new era, what kind of wives and concubines! If the concubines of the governor's mansion were in the previous dynasty, that is, the imperial concubine, this face is not given, and your son will not need to be an official in the future. Done!"

The Governor's Mansion is in Yuecheng, which can indeed be compared to a small imperial court.

The concubine of the Si family is more honorable than the wife of the common people. Gu Guizhang used "Queen" and "Concubine" as a metaphor for the wife and concubine of the Si family, which is a bit exaggerated, but it is also correct.

"You're flattering them too! A group of soldiers will be finished sooner or later!" the old lady said.

The old lady lost her temper, Gu Guizhang coaxed her, and Gu Qingzhou finished her breakfast slowly.

Compared with the old lady who picks three and four all day, Gu Qingzhou's attitude is gentle and demure, which makes the old lady more savage and vulgar.

Gu Guizhang is both afraid of his mother and despised her, and has complicated feelings for her.

"...She can't go alone. Young girls are unaccompanied by others. It doesn't look like it." The old lady said.

The main purpose is revealed.

"Let Tsang and Yingying accompany her." The old lady said, "No one supports her when she goes out, and she doesn't have the respect of the big lady."

Gu Guizhang thought about it and thought it was not bad.

Gu Qingzhou knew in her heart that there was a good show to watch tonight, and if she could accompany more than one person, she could pull anyone into the water at will, and she didn't mind.

"Don't the eldest miss and the fourth miss think that the fifth concubine is a concubine, and her status is low?" Gu Qingzhou asked back with a smile.

Gu Xiang said: "Don't you have no knowledge, that is the concubine of the military governor's mansion, which is much nobler than you."

Gu Qingzhou raised her eyebrows.

She agreed to take Gu Ying and Gu Ying. The two sisters had breakfast and just bought clothes.

The third wife is unbalanced: "Qingzhou, they take advantage of you again!"

"Is it so easy to take advantage of it?" Gu Qingzhou said with a smile, "I can't help them if they don't improve their memory."

The third aunt laughed.

At the same time, the third concubine complained that the old lady was always picky recently, and that her clothes were not dignified.

"What do I do when I'm young, so old-fashioned?" Mrs. 3 said, "This old lady, when will she leave?"

Gu Qingzhou smiled.

She thought, the old lady is leaving soon.

If Gu Qingzhou hadn't been injured and recuperated for a long time, she would have dealt with it long ago.

The injury was just right, and it was about the Overseer's House. Gu Qingzhou had to polish it one by one, and let the old lady be arrogant for a few more days.

She spent the afternoon reviewing her homework in her room, doing arithmetic for an afternoon, and didn't go downstairs until 4:30.

As for Gu Zhang and Gu Ying, they had already dressed up and were waiting to set off.

Gu Ying is a black evening dress, with a dark black British wind cloak; Gu Ying is a light pink cheongsam, wearing a pure white cashmere-trimmed wind cloak.

The two sisters wore light makeup and hair, with very thick bangs covering their eyes, with curly updos in the back, stylish and beautiful.

Compared with them, Gu Qingzhou's dress is nothing new, she is still the clothes she has worn, with simple updos.

The fifth concubine's birthday is too busy, and it is not very lively. There is only a small flower hall with four or five tables, all of which are relatives and friends of the fifth concubine.

Mrs. Si will not come.

But the younger generation of the Si family gave this concubine face and all attended.

Si Qiongzhi was also present.

Seeing Gu Huang and Gu Ying, Si Qiongzhi was stunned for a moment, but found it funny.

"The Gu family really spared no effort to take advantage!" Si Qiongzhi smiled softly.

She was wearing a long snow-colored dress with a pearl comb, and the warm light of the pearls reflected her face and her skin was radiant.

"Sister Gu." Si Qiongzhi stepped forward and greeted Gu Qingzhou with a gentle attitude, and there was no gap at all.

Gu Qingzhou smiled: "Miss Qiongzhi is so beautiful tonight!"

When am I not beautiful?

Si Qiongzhi couldn't hear the praise at these words, and was disdainful in his heart.

While they were talking, they never saw the fifth concubine.

In the banquet hall, in addition to the relatives and friends of the fifth concubine, some upstarts from Yuecheng also came to curry favor with the concubine.

The extravagance in the flower hall is a bit heavy, heavy and tacky.

The fifth concubine's trusted maid, Xiuxiu, stepped forward and said to Gu Qingzhou: "Miss Qingzhou, concubine, please speak in her room."

Gu Qingzhou nodded and went to the fifth concubine's room.

The fifth aunt is still wearing makeup.

Her hair has not been rolled up yet, and is loosely draped over her slender shoulders, making her neck more and more slender.

"......Qingzhou, thank you for coming to support." Mrs. Wu was a little nervous, "It's my first birthday."

"Really?" Gu Qingzhou thought a little.

The fifth concubine nodded: "It's not like this before. This time it was Madam and Miss Qiongzhi who said that I was a little wronged and asked the Overseer to help me celebrate my birthday and comfort me."

Gu Qingzhou smiled.

As she spoke, she stood up and handed a watch to Gu Qingzhou: "You treat me, and it seems that you treat you lightly. This watch is a thank you."

Gu Qingzhou holds it in his hand.

She took a few glances, then said to Mrs. Wu: "I'll go to the bathroom."

The fifth aunt pointed to the left: "Just go out."

Gu Qingzhou went to the bathroom and took apart the watch.

A watch imported from Switzerland with exquisite workmanship.

With the help of the light, Gu Qingzhou moved with the silver needle in his hairpin, and finally found something abnormal in the watch.

She sets up her watch.

Out of the bathroom, the fifth concubine saw Gu Qingzhou put her watch on her wrist.

The fifth aunt was very happy and smiled: "This watch looks good on you."

The gift she gave was valuable, and she was in a good mood.

Gu Qingzhou said: "If you don't mind, I'll help you with your hair."

Aunt Wu glanced at Gu Qingzhou's hair, it was loose but not messy, with a few strands hanging down, lingering around the snow-white neck, seemingly inadvertent, revealing scheming, and very beautiful.

"Okay." Mrs. Wu said.

So, Gu Qingzhou helped Wu Yitai fix her hair. Her fingers fluttered, and it took shape in a moment.

After dressing up, when they went to the flower hall, Xiuxiu, the maid who followed them, suddenly said: "My aunt, the path in front of you seems to be flooded, don't get your shoes wet, let's go around from the west."

If you go around from the west, you will pass by the outer study of the commander.

The fifth concubine didn't think much about it, while Gu Qingzhou's eyes were quiet, and she followed the fifth concubine and Xiuxiu.

When she arrived at the back door of the outer study, Xiuxiu's foot suddenly swollen, and she cried out in pain: "Ouch!"

"Who!" In the darkness, there was the sound of guns being loaded.

Aunt Wu was too stunned.

Gu Qingzhou quickly answered: "It's the fifth concubine!"

An adjutant under the eaves of the study came out. He was wearing a military leather raincoat and carrying a heavy gun. He greeted the fifth concubine, and then said, "Wu concubine, the Overseer is not at home today, so you cannot go near the outer study."

"I don't go to the study, I take a detour to the flower hall." Mrs. Wu said.

Three women walk around quickly.

After walking a few steps and getting further and further away from the outer study room, the fifth concubine looked back at the outer study room and thought: "Tonight the outer study room is heavily guarded, there must be something very important, for fear of being stolen." /

At this time, my wife proposed to celebrate her birthday and bring so many guests back, in case something goes wrong...

Aunt Wu's heart skipped a beat, always feeling like something was going to happen.

"Did Madam do it on purpose?" The fifth concubine thought to herself. "Are you setting me up?"

She was even more uneasy and went to the flower hall.

The expressions of the fifth concubine and Xiuxiu changed a bit, only Gu Qingzhou entered the flower hall leisurely.
