152 The Second Prince
It was originally an ordinary practice banquet, but it was changed by a sudden heavy rain in the evening.
"Sir Gu, news came from the front that the river embankment began to loosen, and I'm afraid it would be impossible." Zhang Sheng stood at the door of the private room in a scared look at everyone in the room. "What my subordinates saw with their own eyes that most of the embankment had begun to loosen. If this continues... it may collapse."
Gu Changqing and An Mingming in the house were both shocked. Qian Zhimin, who drank some peach blossom wine, woke up instantly and stood up in an instant, "Impossible! This time I was supervising the worker myself, and all the reinforcement materials were the best. It is impossible to have anything to do..."
Before he finished speaking, he heard a loud noise from outside. The sound was deafening and shattered the hearts of everyone present.
Something happened to the dam!
Gu Changqing stood up first, "Da Mao, go find Lu Zhian and let him quickly lead a thousand soldiers to maintain order."
"Zhang Sheng, go to the scene quickly and evacuate the river workers present."
"Mr. Lin, gather all the yamen runners and constables in the yamen, so that they can patrol the city continuously from now on, in case anyone seeks trouble during this period."
Finally, he looked at Qian Zhimin, who was shocked and An Mingming with a worried face, "You two go to the scene with me."
As soon as Gu Changqing had arranged the task, he heard another loud noise from outside. Before they could run to the window to see what was going on, they heard loud noises after loud noises that broke the hearts of everyone present.
"This is an explosion." An Mingming frowned.
"Someone is deliberately causing trouble." Lin Zhihai also reacted.
The second prince.
Gu Changqing narrowed his eyes. No wonder he has been so quiet these days. It turns out that he is waiting here.
"Let's go, everyone will act separately."
At this time, the Chu family members were also scared by the explosion after explosion and lost their souls. Donghao was so scared that he ran around the room, making "whimper" sounds from time to time.
Gu Changling and Chu Yu were chatting while eating melon seeds, saying that the embankment was reinforced very timely this year, and it started raining heavily just now. Unexpectedly, the two of them were not happy yet, and the outside was in chaos.
"Where did this explosion come from?" Chu Yu suddenly stood up, feeling a bad premonition. Thinking of Gu Changqing's comment about the second prince, he couldn't help but frown, "It's the second prince who came out to cause trouble, right?"
Gu Changling's heart also hangs.
Her brother was assassinated by the second prince's people, and now the other party is making an explosion here again. Why didn't she see that the second prince is so vicious before?
"Gu Changqing is still in Xuande Building?"
Gu Changling shook her head uncertainly. She did book the Xuande Building, but in this situation, they probably had gone to the scene of the incident long ago, so how could they still eat in the restaurant?
"Two ladies, Lord Gu sent someone to send a message, saying that no matter what happens outside, you should not go over and take risks, just stay at home with peace of mind."
"Sure enough, something happened." Chu Yu sat down with a little dejected look.
In the last life, Gu Changqing was so smooth, and there were so many trivial things. What happened in this life? It was one thing after another. Could it be that because both of them were reborn, many things were separated from their original trajectory?
"Sister Chu, this matter must be unrelated to the second prince." Gu Changling slapped the table with anger, "He is so damaging to my brother, and if he is too impatient, I will marry him!"
Chu Yu, who was recalling the past, was stunned when he heard this. What a bold statement?
"When I get married, I'll see how I deal with him."
Chu Yu smiled bitterly helplessly. It was really easy for this girl to think about things.
"Chang Ling, do you know where the second prince is now?" Chu Yu had already made plans in his heart.
Gu Changling nodded, "Sister Chu thinks this is really done by the second prince?"
Chu Yu smiled coldly. Her younger brother...he specializes in unreliable things.
"It's probably him."
After Gu Changling told Chu Yu about the address where Lu Liunian lived, she saw her put on a men's outfit and wrapped her soft whip around her waist, and prepared to set off.
"I want to go too." How could Gu Changling miss such an opportunity? She wanted to tear Lu Liunian in person.
Chu Yu raised an oil-paper umbrella, his eyebrows and eyes were clear but he said without any refusal: "You wait for me at home, I'll solve this."
Fulai Inn is not a top-notch in Linzhou, but it is also a place where rich people like to come. This is not only a place to stay, but also a platform to listen to music and watch operas. It is very lively from morning to night. Even if you don’t go out all day, you won’t feel bored.
For example, at this time, it was raining heavily outside, but the building was very lively.
At this time, the most famous opera troupe in Linzhou was performed on stage, and the actor was "A Dream of Visiting the Garden". The troupe owner looked carefully beside the stage, and his eyes almost fell on the stage.
It sounds strange. Before the opening, a guest insisted on experiencing the fun of being an actor, so he gave him a lot of silver notes and at the same time dressed up as Du Liniang and ran to the stage to sing the opera.
He was nervous, and he didn't know if this guy would play the role or whether this guy would do it. If this was really a mess, their opera team would be very sad in the future.
In the first row of the lobby on the first floor, there was a man in gorgeous clothes. He had outstanding appearance and his demeanor in his manners. He could tell at a glance that he was either rich or noble.
"Master, it's already done there." A man in black hurried in from outside the building. Perhaps because he was moving too fast, the cold air on his body had not yet dissipated, and a trace of raindrops hung on his forehead, but the pleasure in his eyes was unblocked.
The man in the Chinese uniform paused his fingers that had been tapping the table at the rhythm, and a smile rose from his mouth, and soon returned to normal.
"Remember to deal with it cleanly." A low voice came, the man in black nodded and then hurried out again.
As the man in black left, the man in gorgeous clothes turned his eyes to the stage again. He rarely watched operas on weekdays and was not interested in such babbling things. But today he was in a very good mood and was willing to turn his attention to everyone on the stage.
"Young Master—" A soft call was heard, and the woman in the costume walked shyly and timidly to the man in the gorgeous clothes. Although she did not do anything more, the fluctuation of her eyes when she turned around made him feel moved.
As soon as the gong sounded, the play on the stage was finished.
The headmaster on the side breathed a long sigh and finally finished the show safely. It was so thrilling.
Many of the guests in the audience were happy to see it and threw copper plates on the stage. Some ladies even threw a lot of jewelry. The shopkeepers who were serving the side did not react at all when they saw this, as if they were commonplace.
As the actors on the stage bowed and stepped down, the man in the gorgeous clothes who had been sitting silently slowly stood up and walked towards the backstage.
