Just as Mrs. Shen was hesitating, a servant suddenly called out from the outside, "The Minister of Revenue wishes to inquire about his son, Gou Xiuhao, Gou. He just passed over an invitation saying that he would like to come to the residence to reward the Purple Vine Flower, as promised by the Second Master."

Old Madam Nan then frowned. "The mansion is full of ladies, how can we meet the male guests?"

However, Mrs. Shen said, "Since it's a guest that Second Master has asked for, it would be rude to send him away so carelessly. "As I see it, why don't you let me lead you. Zhijun and Yurou wear a veil, and lead Gou Hanshi to the backyard. That's it."

Old Mistress Shen sighed, "As you wish."

Nan Zhijun smiled and did not object. On the contrary, Nan Yurou pouted her lips and looked a little reluctant. However, she did not say anything on behalf of Mrs. Shen.

The few of them immediately retreated, leaving the Hao Mei Hall. Mrs. Shen and Nan Yurou purposefully walked a few steps faster, leaving Nan Zhijun behind. Nan Zhijun wasn't annoyed. Instead, she deliberately slowed her pace as she pondered over the matter.

Careful consultation, the Ministry of Revenue, smooth and smooth, Murong Yan is one of the most hidden cards. In his previous life, at the most crucial moment when he was trying to ascend the throne, the princes suddenly turned their spearheads and threw a counterattack at Murong Yan. It was said that when the Crown Prince found out about this news, he was so angry that he fainted on the spot with blood flowing from his mouth, and almost lost half his life.

As for Gou Xiuhao, he was just an ordinary Young Master'er. In Nan Zhijun's eyes, he was just an insignificant person. However, what was the point of Gou Xiuhao visiting him now?

Was it due to the seriousness of the situation, or was it due to Murong Yan's words?

After the establishment of the Great Yuan, the Yuan Martial Emperor had the intention to divide the civil officials into military officials, the big house with the Nan Family to support the father. However, the second house walked the path of a civil official, the second house, South Disciple, was a Taoist in the current dynasty, and it had some connection with the current situation.

It was ridiculous to say that Nan Zechen had studied so hard to become a third rank official. He had no idea what was going on, but he had become a bat figure, and the birds saw him as a beast and the beasts as a bird. Wen Chen mocked his birth, and the generals treated him as an outsider. Therefore, the Second Master of the Nan Family had to make a few decisions during festivals. If it weren't for Mrs. Shen's support of her Nan's Estate, the Second Branch probably would have even eaten so much as a tael of silver.

However, when Gou Hanshi and Pingli looked at each other, their hearts were filled with pride. Gou Xiuhao's visit this time was definitely not about Gou Hanshi and the others. In other words, Gou Xiuhao had come under Murong Yan's orders?

Nan Zhijun was startled, but her steps were unflustered. She calmed down a little and her eyes became indifferent again.

It was fine, it was fine.

In front of her, Mrs. Shen talked to Nan Yurou in detail. Only then did Nan Yurou's displeasure turn to joy. She gently tugged on Mrs. Shen's arm and shook it as she said in a delicate voice, "Good mother, why didn't you tell your daughter earlier? If you had told her that this person is the Sixth Prince's trusted aide, then why would your daughter have suffered for so long?"

Mrs. Shen loved this darling of hers the most. She tried to coax her again in a gentle voice before turning around to urge Nan Zhijun to leave faster. The three of them made their way to the backyard together. attendant had already informed the door and led Gou Xiuhao to the backyard. Gou Xiuhao had probably been waiting there for quite some time already.

Nan Zhijun wore a light green veil, slightly lively but not ostentatious; Mrs. Shen wore a white veil, which matched her scholarly bearing; Nan Yurou wore a red veil, which accentuated her charm and charm.

The three of them arrived at the back garden. The rose, Jasmine, Lily, Mountain Dan, Banana, and Evening Fragrance Jade were blooming in clusters. The servants in the mansion were pruning them properly, making them look all the more beautiful. The three of them walked around the garden and saw a person in green clothes, Young Master'er's back was facing them. He was bent over and sniffing the flowers. Hearing the movement behind her, Young Master'er turned around, clasped his hands together, and said, "Excuse me."

Young Master'er's appearance was not ordinary, but she dressed like a noble person. Under the scorching sun, the gold beads on her body reflected the sunlight, making her stand out like a conspicuous person. Nan Zhijunwei lowered her head to avoid the sunlight, but she knew in her heart that Young Master'er was naturally the son of Minister Gou Shu, the son of Gou Xiuhao Gou Gou.

Mrs. Shen stepped forward with a smile. "How can you be so bold? I've heard a lot from Second Master praising Young Master for being a good person. Now that I've seen him today, I know that what he said is true."

Gou Xiuhao grinned. He fanned himself with the folding fan twice before closing it again. Just as he was about to insert it into his neck, he realized that this action was inappropriate. He laughed dryly twice before tossing it into his sleeves. When Nan Yurou saw this, she became more and more dissatisfied.

He thought about how the Sixth Prince was such a carefree person, how could his trusted aides be so vulgar.

Gou Xiuhao also felt a bit awkward. He walked around the flower tree once more and learned it as if he wanted to show off: "This little one knows the Purple Vine Flower well. In such a big capital, I'm afraid no other Purple Vine Flower is blooming so well?"

The flattery in her words could not be more obvious. Although Nan Yurou was unhappy in her heart, she wanted to show off a little more and get Murong Yan's attention. She thought for a moment and then continued, "I'm afraid that Gou might not know that this Purple Vine Flower has another name, it's called 'Hundred Day Red'."

"Hundred Sun Red?" Gou Xiuhao was stunned for a moment, then suddenly pulled out his folding fan and opened it again, letting out a sound, "The only thing that I said was: 'A person doesn't have a thousand good days, a hundred flowers don't have a hundred flowers'.

"I'm afraid Young Master Gou still doesn't know. Our mansion still has a few clumps of 'Thousand Sunsets' that we obtained from the Southern Barbaric Nether Domain. They are even better than this' Hundred Suns'." Although Nan Yurou still had that delicate and weak appearance, her tone still carried a bit of arrogance. Nan Zhijun remained calm and collected, but she secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

As expected, being young was still too young and impatient.

The group enjoyed the garden for a while. The sun was shining, and they left the garden. Originally, Nan Yurou thought Gou Xiuhao would leave the mansion immediately, but when she read her zither, she realized that there was no one in the audience. She had to force Gou Xiuhao to listen to a song before she dared to give up.

Nan Zhijun came to her senses. That's right, she had never cared about Nan Yurou in her previous life. Now, it seemed that this little girl, Nan Yurou, had probably fallen in love with Murong Yan. The second room did things for Murong Yan. It seemed that it wasn't just those rewards, but also Nan Yurou herself.

Nan Yurou called maidservant, who was passing by, and instructed her servants to get her zither and come over quickly. Saying that, Nan Yurou looked at Yu Zhijun again, and laughed arrogantly: "Big Sis, you don't want to play a song? Teaching maidservant to summon people to retrieve her zither also saves her the trouble of coming here. "

Nan Zhijun was about to refuse, but she glanced at Gou Xiuhao and immediately changed her mind. She smiled and said: "Since it's a request from my sister, of course I won't reject it."
