Chapter 248 Her man is awesome

Gu Qingyue looked around, feeling as satisfied as if she had drunk honey!

She made up her mind to continue working hard to earn money!

She imagined herself lying on a mountain of gold counting money and laughed out loud.

"Take this, may you grow up healthy and well," Gu Qingyue felt a weight in her hand as a large red envelope was handed to her.

She turned her head and saw Rong Qingqing staring at her with a smile, and smiled happily in return.

"Here you go, and I wish you all the best!"

"May all your wishes come true!" Gu Qingyue nodded and stood up.

She needs to get ready to have a meal with the disciples of Mingyue Manor, Yueying Pavilion, and Anren.

After having lunch with everyone at Mingyue Villa and receiving red envelopes, the boys' cheers almost lifted the roof off!

She also took a look at everyone's training results, which were quite good.

Most of them have already undergone two rounds of body tempering, and their martial arts skills have improved by leaps and bounds.

The overall strength of Moon Shadow Pavilion and Dark Blade has increased significantly.

She was deeply moved.

In the end, I did not let myself down.

It's easy to go to the deep mountains several times and go through all sorts of hardships to find various medicinal herbs for tempering the body. It sounds easy, but it's not easy to do.

Moreover, Gu Qingyue also discovered several promising talents with exceptional martial arts skills.

This includes Yu Mo, the brother and sister she once saved, and Cui Shuming of Dark Blade.

Especially Cui Shuming, who is nearly thirty years old, but has a very good talent for martial arts and has made leaps and bounds in progress compared to when she withdrew from the deep mountains.

She needs to think carefully about how to arrange things for these people.

After leaving Mingyue Manor, Gu Qingyue took Liu Feng and Yue Ling to their secret base.

That is, the original location of the Fengyun Sect.

She carefully examined the calligraphy scroll that Liu Feng had given her; it was a plaque written by Zhou Shanzhang of Songxian Academy in Lizhou City, which she had asked Liu Feng to find.

"The moon hangs high in the sky, casting sparse shadows across the vast sea of ​​clouds, encompassing heaven and earth."

The two lines of calligraphy are vigorous and powerful; Zhou Shanchang truly deserves to be called a renowned calligrapher of the Great Chu.

Although the handwriting was vigorous and the brushstrokes were sharp, they were not aggressive. Upon closer inspection, one could feel a sense of vigorous growth and endless vitality within the brushstrokes, which greatly pleased Gu Qingyue.

“Very good. Let’s get the name ‘Moon Shadow Pavilion’ taken and have someone make a signboard. I think it’s almost finished being repaired. We can start furnishing it after the Lantern Festival on an auspicious day.”

Gu Qingyue turned around and returned the words in her hand to Liu Feng.

The three of them stepped into the new base of Moon Shadow Pavilion.

Looking at the newly renovated main hall, Gu Qingyue was so excited she wanted to spin around!

But she couldn't afford to lose face in front of her subordinates, so she suppressed it.

As you climb the steps, the mountain slopes steep, and the buildings of varying heights and distances are arranged in a pleasing and orderly fashion.

Under the setting sun, a landscape painting in orange hues slowly unfolded as the group walked.

Gu Qingyue looked around, somewhat dazed.

Could it be that we've stumbled into a mysterious cave and stumbled upon a mysterious and unpredictable paradise on earth?

But upon closer inspection, it seems more like the pavilions and terraces of the Jiangnan water towns, which, though scattered and of different heights, are all integrated into one.

Looking up to someone in the distance is admiring them; being close to them is comforting.

Liu Feng led the way, guiding Gu Qingyue into the tallest and central courtyard. The courtyard had three sections, with a three-story pavilion in the back courtyard.

With its upturned eaves and black tiles, the house is magnificent yet elegant, a perfect home for Gu Qingyue, the pavilion master.

"Qingyue, you sent the furniture blueprints over before the New Year. Are all the materials golden nanmu wood?" Liu Feng asked, looking at the satisfied look in Gu Qingyue's eyes.

As the esteemed leaders of the pavilion, they naturally want to use the best and most beautiful things!

Gu Qingyue rejected the furniture designs they presented three times. In the end, Gu Qingyue took the time to draw a set herself, and only then was she satisfied.

Gu Qingyue's lips twitched upon hearing this.

This kid doesn't know the cost of living when he's not in charge of the household!

And Phoebe zhennan wood?

Why not use jadeite?

On second thought, jade and precious stones are not as expensive as golden nanmu wood!

She rubbed her forehead. "The best huanghuali wood will do."

What kind of Phoebe zhennan wood is used?

I'm not some nouveau riche or a wealthy landowner. Wait, even a wealthy landowner probably couldn't afford to use this. Do you think I'm some kind of local emperor?

After leaving the three-section courtyard, they carefully inspected the various secret passages and hidden rooms built there, and only descended the mountain when night fell.

Back at the Gu residence in Lizhou, although she was very tired, Gu Qingyue felt more fulfilled than ever before.

She walked slowly in the quiet courtyard.

Looking at the darkening sky and the strings of lanterns swaying in the wind in the courtyard, Gu Qingyue suddenly recalled the lines of poetry: "The Milky Way seems to fall like stars, the tower seems to hang like the moon."

I wonder how many people dream of a starry river of lights like this long river of night lights?

Amidst a river of lights resembling a tree in full bloom, Gu Qingyue stands alone, seemingly detached from the world.

Her gaze swept around, and in the quiet night, she suddenly felt a pang of loneliness.

"Little sister," Gu Yuanen's voice rang out from afar.

To Gu Qingyue at this moment, it was like heavenly music.

Gu Qingyue looked up and saw the upright young man in the distance.

Wearing a dark cloak, he stood smiling at the entrance of his small courtyard, seemingly waiting for her.

Gu Qingyue suddenly smiled.

She forgot that she had already found her family.

From now on, I will never be alone.

Whether or not I can go back to that Duke's mansion.

"Fourth Brother, what are you doing here?"

"Thinking that you were lonely all by yourself, I came to visit and wanted to keep you company."

Gu Yuanen walked over quickly, pulled Gu Qingyue's cloak tighter, and smiled warmly.

"It's so cold outside, why don't you go inside?" Gu Qingyue rubbed her hands together, feeling warm inside.

The care from loved ones is truly wonderful!

Gu Yuanen smiled, and the two entered the courtyard.

"I have good news and bad news. Which do you want to hear first?" Gu Yuanen asked, keeping everyone in suspense.

Upon hearing this, Gu Qingyue's eyes darted around, "Let's hear the bad news first."

“In the early hours of the morning, the head of the Qin family committed suicide in the dungeon of the prefectural government,” Gu Yuanen sighed. “It must have been the work of Prefect Li.”

"Murder?" Gu Qingyue asked curiously.

"No, it was suicide. According to the people keeping watch, Prefect Li went to the dungeon to see the head of the Qin family, but he stayed for less than a quarter of an hour. An hour later, the head of the Qin family committed suicide by hitting his head against the wall."

Gu Qingyue was so angry she wanted to curse. These treacherous scoundrels!

"anything else?"

"The news of the smuggled salt has spread throughout the city today. Prefect Li probably found out that the letter was missing and that he was involved in the smuggling case. At noon, he tried to escape with his valuables but was caught by the men sent by the Seventh Prince."

When Prefect Li fled, he took with him a concubine surnamed Wen and a secretary surnamed Wang.

He left his wife and daughter in the back office.

I heard that when Miss Li found out, she rushed to the street and got into a fight with Aunt Wen. Both of their faces were scratched by each other.

Thinking of this, Gu Yuanen shuddered. Women are not to be trifled with!

"Really?" Gu Qingyue smiled and her eyes narrowed upon hearing this.

Her husband is amazing!

They sent men over and dealt with Prefect Li in just one night.

The city of Lizhou must have been incredibly lively today, but unfortunately she was out of town and didn't see it.

Gu Yuanen chuckled and patted the little girl's head. "So happy?"
