Chapter 54 The rich second generation of rich and handsome

"I have been planning for so many years, swallowing my anger in the Gu family and enduring the arrogance of the mother and son for so long, why?"

Gu Zichen's eyes burst into a cold light, and his relaxed mood when he got along with Bai Rui also became impatient because of the fluctuation of his emotions. He snorted coldly: "Bai Rui, on the other side of Jiazi Mountain, you have to help me deal with it. Don't let An Yu and others act recklessly, if..."

At this point, Gu Zichen closed his voice. Bai Rui knew what he was worried about and nodded: "Don't worry, when do I need you to worry about things for so many years?"

Gu Zichen sighed heavily and reached out to pat Bai Rui on the shoulder: "Thank you!"

"They are all brothers. Why are you so polite? When I was a child, I ate a lot of osmanthus cake made by your mother.

"You also said that you were still greedy when you changed your teeth, and you tossed around a lot when you died in pain."

"Ha ha, what do you remember about those embembembthsment?"

"I still remember that you were asked to marry as a little girl when you were a child!"

Gu Zichen said this, with a faint smile on his face, and there was no usual alienation in his eyes. Seeing this, Bai Rui slowly raised the corners of his lips and picked up the water cup and drank slowly. The fan-like eyelashes trembled slightly and could not see any emotion.

"Zichen, you... like that girl named An Yu, don't you?"

Gu Zichen was stunned. The faint smile on his face was also stiff on his face because of Bai Rui's sudden change of topic. Then he said covertly, "I and she are not what you think. We don't have a husband and wife."

"Of course I know that you don't have a husband and wife. If so, she can't live in Gu's house as a guest now, right?"

nodded. Gu Zichen did not deny his feelings for An Yu. He knew that with his tacit understanding with Bai Rui, the other party could understand without his clear words: "What do you think of her?"

After saying that, Gu Zichen looked at Bai Rui with some expectation. Bai Rui was the closest person in Changdu, except for the Qin family. For the first time, he had a favorite girl, and he hoped to get his approval at the first time. A complex emotion flashed on Bai Rui's face, and his charming eyes lowered his eyes again, covering his look.

"If you think it's good, that's good."

After saying that, Bai Rui didn't seem to want to mention An Yu's appearance, but just looked at the direction of the closed window and said, "What's the name of the man with An Yu...?"

"Hu Li."

"Fox? Oh... this name is a little interesting."

"Gu Yuehu, the official of the official script, but it doesn't matter if you call him a fox. In my opinion, this man is far more cunning than the fox, and An Yu also calls him that."

Bai Rui frowned. At this moment, he turned his back to Gu Zichen. Gu Zichen could only see his side face. He couldn't see his emotions at all, and Bai Rui knew better than anyone else. He didn't like Gu Zichen to talk about An Yu. Gu Zichen seemed to be unaware of it. He opened his mouth and closed his mouth was An Yu, which made Bai Rui very uncomfortable. Cool.

"Do you know his identity?"

"It has been known that he is the only son of Hu Chong, a rich businessman in Qindu. As for why he came to Changdu and why he mixed with An Yu, it has not been found out."

"Rich businessman? You are really euphemistic. Qin is not younger than our Changdu, and the Hu family's business is all over the north and south of the country. I have never seen this Hu Li, and it is not easy to judge him, but his father Hu Chong, it is not too much to say that he is the richest man in Qin. He is the richest man in the world, and even the current emperor has to avoid him, but he is rich and never If you do anything illegal, even if the court wants to suppress him, you can't get any high-sounding excuse. And Hu Chong is shrewd and tactful, knowing that although the merchant is not harmful to the court, he is too rich and even comparable to the treasury, which has to distress him.

Gu Zichen nodded. Bai Rui knew that he had always talked little. Most of the time when they had been together for so many years, they also said by themselves. He listened, and at this moment, he was naturally no exception: "This is the truth! However, this old guy can make his family business so big. Naturally, he has his own way. He donates one-tenth of his annual income to disaster relief and two-tenths to the court. You said that the court has received such great benefits from others, and you can see that he has no rebellious intentions, and there is a treasury fixed to fill his country every year. Ku, so this Hu Chong has not been suppressed, but has become the object of indirect protection. He pays tribute to the court every year, which earns more than your family's business.

"Can't you just say that Hu Chongfu is still highly valued by the emperor in the world?"

"Who would know these tricks inside? No one knows how rich the Hu family is. The reason why I have this news is that I know that the Hu family raises these wine bags and rice bags of the court every year, which is just listening to what my father said.

Gu Zichen shook his head: "You can't overturn a boat of people. Your father is also a member of the court. There are many good officials like him, and there are many people in the court."

"The officials always only know how to play in the upper court, but it is those soldiers at the border gates who really fight for Hongguo. Therefore, compared with some officials who don't know the hardships of the world, I admire Hu Chong more. At least, he is really squeezing the money obtained by the rich and doing good deeds for the people. ."

"Do you seem to have a good impression of the Hu family?"

Bai Rui glanced at him and then said, "I'm reminding you that Hu Chong is a person with good and evil, and has a righteous heart. If you can figure out why Hu Li left home and get along with him, you can still get along with him. At that time, Hu Chong, the richest man in Qindu, will support you. I believe that you can take back what belongs to you without any effort. Everything about the Qin family.

In fact, when he knew Hu Li's identity, Gu Zichen did not think of giving up his current plan and directly specified that he would cooperate with Hu Li, but his idea only came out at the moment when it came out, he rejected it. Not to mention that he doesn't know why Hu Li left home. This still needs to be investigated. In terms of the relationship between him and An Yu alone, Gu Zichen can't calm himself down and talk about cooperation with him. Moreover, although they are not at odds with each other, Gu Zichen can still understand what Hu Li has done and the reason why he is against him. In fact, I just want to test myself whether I am qualified to take care of An Yu.

Thinking of An Yu, Gu Zichen understood that he could not rely on others, but could only rely on himself to get back everything he deserved step by step! He is not only for himself, but also for his mother who lives in a partial courtyard every day, as well as his deceased grandfather and uncle.

"Bai Rui, you still don't understand me?"

"It's because I understand that I said it's just a reminder. If you really want to get along with Hu Li, I won't say so much. I just hope you understand that if you feel that Hu Li has hindered you, you have to investigate why he concealed his identity and wandered in Jiazi Mountain to be the second head of a bandit village."

Speaking of this, Bai Rui's eyes tightened and immediately asked, "Yes, you and Hu Li are so at odds. Is he also investigating you?"

"I suspect that he already knows my details."

"Including that?"

Gu Zichen nodded: "We have carefully planned our identity for so many years. It has only been a few days since he came to Changdu, and he has figured it out. He also knows that the Longmen Inn is the place where I used to receive distinguished guests. Except for you and Asla's envoys, only the owner and shopkeeper of the inn know this matter. They are all Our people."

Bai Rui's eyes also had a serious look. He sat up straight, unconsciously clenched his hands into fists, and put them on his legs: "It seems that Hu Li's method is no worse than his father. We... have to guard against it."

"He doesn't seem to pose any threat to us. He can put it aside for the time being. The key now is how we will plan the next thing after the middleman appears. At the beginning, I wanted to make a plan. Who knew that the bandits Gu Zijun was looking for was An Yu and others, and An Yu also accidentally went down the mountain ahead of schedule, so The Qingming Gang bumped into the gang."

"What is the relationship between you and An Yu?"

Up to now, even if Bai Rui doesn't want to mention An Yu, he still has to ask clearly before he can arrange the following things. Gu Zichen's eyes changed slightly when he heard the words, and then shook his head helplessly: "So far, it can only be regarded as an ally."

That day, because An Yu was in the teahouse, Gu Zichen picked up some more important things and roughly brought him and An Yu's acquaintance. Now that Bai Rui asked this, Gu Zichen told him about the original incident without omission. The more Bai Rui listened, the deeper his eyebrows frowned, and finally he was angry. He had to slap on the table and got up angrily, "That's unreasonable! These bandits really don't have a king's law!"

Gu Zichen was slightly stunned when he saw that his friend was so angry, and then smiled and comforted him: "They didn't do anything to me. In fact, if you really want to calculate, it's actually An Yu who suffered losses. Although the fox's calculation is right, they regard me as Qin Ming..."

Speaking of this, Gu Zichen couldn't help laughing again: "Do you think that if a lonely man and woman slept naked all night, would I suffer or she suffer?"

"That's true...but you're still moved by her."

Gu Zichen glanced at him rigorously, sensed the faint loss in his eyes, and had no choice but to sigh, "Bai Rui, you know that I have only had feelings for Yuling. Even if your father is interested in letting the two families get married, but in my situation, even if I really have a love for Yuling, it is impossible for me. Harm her."

Bai Rui's slightly angry eyes flashed and suddenly became gloomy. Finally, he lowered his eyes habitually, covering all his emotions, and raised a wry smile at the corners of his lips: "It's a pity that my little sister has been getting along with you as a husband since childhood."

"I'm deeply sorry for this."

"Zichen, do you really don't understand or..."

"Bai Rui! You and I have been in love for many years, and you know better than anyone else that emotional things can't be forced. Don't force me.
