Chapter 49: Conspiracy and Calculation

"What is the Imperial Grandmother going to do?" a stone finally fell in the prince's heart. He rolled his eyes and began to calculate the Gu family's little five who had worried him for a long time. Since she didn't let him get better, he wouldn't let her get better.

The crown prince pondered: "If the imperial grandmother only issued a will, can the father change his mind?"

Indeed, although the emperor is not in good shape, he is also a stubborn person, and the things he decides do not change easily. In the early years, the queen mother and the emperor were not in harmony, and once the emperor had a dispute with the queen mother, the illness became heavy. Later, the Queen Mother let the emperor everywhere, and even ignored his marriage to Princess Xiliang. This Princess Xiliang is also the concubine Cen Guifei who was later crowned. Therefore, this time, the Queen Mother wants to stop the emperor's decision, of course, she can't force it.

Mother Shen smiled slightly: "The prince doesn't need to worry. After all, the emperor is the emperor, and he can not listen to the words of the queen mother, but can he not listen to the words of the elders of the three dynasties? What kind of thing is that fifth girl of the Gu family, the daughter of a merchant, how can she enter our royal gate? But make a way to make the world feel that that Gu Wu girl is not a good match for our prince, but it is okay. ”

The prince's face suddenly showed joy: "If this is the case, it is best to let the Gu family retreat." ”

Mother Shen smiled: "Of course. The most important thing is that you can't lose the royal face, as for that Gu Wu girl, how does the prince think she should arrange her place?"

The prince said hatefully: "That Gu Mutou, this prince must not cheapen her, this prince must treat her well, let her understand, what is called a toad wants to eat swan meat, it is impossible!"

Mother Shen smiled comfortably: "The Queen Mother has long said that the crown prince is the best at dealing with those women who want to cling to power." In the old man's opinion, this is true. Well, Wen Xiang said that when he was discussing with the emperor in the study, he would move out of the ancestral laws and regulations to prevent the emperor from appointing the five girls of the Gu family as the crown princess. However, this may not be able to move the emperor, and the rest is up to you. ”

The prince was full of confidence all of a sudden, and nodded vigorously: "Mother Shen, you went back to the old grandmother, and she can rest assured about this matter." With the help of Wen Xiang, of course, it is impossible for that Gu Mutou to sit in the position of the crown princess. As for how to deal with this kind of greedy vanity and unscrupulous woman, this prince has a way. ”

Mother Shen nodded: "Then it's up to the prince." After that, he told the prince a few more words, and then went out of the palace to return to his life.

Seeing that Shen's mother was gone, Chang De looked at the prince with a smile: "Prince, that Gu ...... Gu Mutou," he said in the tone of the prince's voice, "How is the prince going to give her some color?"

As soon as the prince stretched out his hand, he knocked on his head and shuddered: "You have followed Prince Ben for so many years, don't you know the style of Prince Ben?"

Chang De touched his head, shrunk his neck, and said in his heart: "Now that Gu girl is miserable, the prince may be ruthless." ”

There was such a thing a long time ago. It was the Shangyuan Festival of a certain year, and the emperor invited hundreds of officials in the capital to bring their families to the palace to celebrate on a whim. Many children were playing in the palace and were very happy. Among them, there is a daughter of a family who doesn't know what official rank she is, she is fat, but she fell in love with the prince at a glance, and ran after the prince, but she couldn't get rid of it. At that time, the prince was only eleven or twelve years old, and he hated this fat girl very much. Later, for some reason, the fat girl fell into the lotus pond in the Imperial Garden and almost drowned. I heard that the doctor rescued him for three days and three nights, and then he woke up. When he woke up, he was stupid, wooden, and cried with fear when he saw the water.

The emperor was furious and ordered someone to investigate the matter thoroughly. But at that time, a large group of children were playing, whether they were pushed by others, or whether they accidentally fell into the water, no one can say. The emperor had no choice but to punish the eunuch on duty and the mother-in-law who was watching this group of children, and gave tens of thousands of taels of silver and a large number of medicinal materials to the official, which was regarded as compensation, and the matter was over.

This matter has been regarded as an accident, until one day the prince was drunk and inadvertently said it proudly, Changde knew that the whole thing was the prince's idea. A child who is only eleven or twelve years old, he almost calculated the lives of others so easily, and under the heavy and thorough investigation of Dali Temple, he can still not be found out, Changde felt cold when he thought of this. The master who serves himself is what kind of person he has become in the city!

Fortunately, the prince only uses tricks against those who provoke him, and he can still see his loyalty as a slave. Therefore, at this time, Changde can only pray that the five girls of the Gu Mansion will ask for more blessings.

Yanagi-in-in.

The midday sun shines through the window, through the lake-colored curtains, and softly onto the pearwood square couch next to the south wall.

Gu Zhirong opened his eyes in a daze, but he couldn't help but squint his eyes when he was stabbed by the sudden light. She had a vague feeling of not knowing where she was, until she saw Cai Qing, who was sitting at the round table not far away, napping with pink cheeks, and her tense nerves relaxed.

It turned out that he had returned to his home.

However, she has no memory of how she came back last night.

Last night...... Last night......

Did anything happen?

The memory of last night was a blank and she felt a pain in her head, a reaction to a hangover. Helpless, she had to stand up, leaned on the green forging ink pillow, and rubbed her temples vigorously.

This sound woke up Cai Qing, who was already asleep, and she jumped up suddenly, and her first reaction was to look in the direction of Gu Zhirong. Seeing that his young lady woke up, he couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief: "My young lady, you are finally willing to wake up." ”

Gu Zhirong looked at her strangely: "Why don't I wake up, do I want to sleep to death?" What's more, I only drank half a glass of wine yesterday, so it stands to reason that I can wake up today." I'm not a drinker, and I get drunk when I get drunk, but fortunately you still sent me back to the house and didn't let me live on the streets!"

Speaking of this, Gu Zhirong smiled. It's really not good to get drunk outside, but luckily she has a loyal girl who sent her back safely.

Turning his head, he saw Cai Qing looking at her with a very strange look, as if he didn't know her. She wondered, "Cai Qing, why are you looking at me like this, did I say something wrong?"

Cai Qing said cautiously: "Miss, you really don't know what happened last night?"

"What happened last night?" Gu Zhirong felt "Geden" in his heart, and subconsciously said, "Cai Qing, haven't you always been by my side......?"

Cai Qing saw that her young lady wanted to be crooked, and hurriedly said: "Miss, where do you want to go, of course the slave maid has been guarding the young lady and has not left an inch, but it is not the slave and the maid who sent the young lady back!"

"It's not you, then who sent me back?" Gu Zhirong said blankly.

Cai Qing stared at her: "Miss, you really don't remember? Last night, when you were drunk and resting at the door of the Piaoxiang Society......."

Gu Zhirong frowned and recalled, and suddenly, a clear figure appeared in her mind, as if she had been struck by electricity, she opened her mouth, and her voice was empty and weak: "Did King Su send me back?"
