Chapter Thirty-Eight: The True Enemy

Gu Shuiyue is interlocking, and it is not Ru Xiu who wants to pull into the buckle, but herself!

Meng Xiyu, who realized this, suddenly tensed up.

At the same time, she also realized that Ru Xiu was not a picker. If she had been safe and sound, she would have saved her life, but now she actually dragged herself into the water, it was simply a suicide!

Meng Xiyu walked to Gu Shuiyue's side and knelt down towards the old princess: "Mother, the concubine is at fault." It is not good for the concubine to discipline the maid, so that the personal maid is used by others, and she actually does such a ridiculous thing. Disturb the second master, disturb the mother, and ask the mother to be punished. “

At this time, it was not based on reason, but to admit mistakes, and to retreat as advance, I have to say that Meng Xiyu is indeed a smart person.

Gu Shuiyue didn't speak, and Ashina said in a strange manner: "Being used, Sister Meng, is it being used by you." “

"This is a bureau set up by someone with a heart, the concubine is irrefutable, please punish the concubine. disturbed the second master, and the concubine personally came to the door to ask for guilt. As for my sister saying that it was a concubine who used it, the concubine really didn't do it, so I asked my sister to be cautious. Meng Xiyu said.

If I can't argue, then I won't argue, justice is in the hearts of the people. Gu Shuiyue interpreted such a meaning from Meng Xiyu's words. In this way, the decision was put in the hands of the old princess, and it was up to the old princess to see how justice was in the old princess's heart.

The old princess quickly made a decision: "The maid Ruxiu has misbehaved, discussed the master in vain, deceived the superiors and concealed the subordinates, the crime is unforgivable, and she will be dragged down and beaten to death." Meng's discipline was ineffective, and he was punished for copying Buddhist scriptures for ten days, and the old man personally disciplined him!"

The old princess made a final decision on the matter, and the matter ended here.

As soon as she waved her hand, everyone left one after another, even the old woman beside the old princess retreated, and only the old princess and Meng Xiyu were left in the whole room.

Meng Xiyu was still kneeling on the ground.

After a while, the old princess said, "Get up." “

Meng Xiyu got up, walked to the old princess's side, raised her eyebrows and slapped her shoulders and said, "Thank you aunt for protecting me, this matter is interlocking, and it is obviously aimed at me." “

The old princess closed her eyes and did not speak.

Meng Xiyu looked at her face and said, "Auntie, the Gu family is really not simple. She has only been in the palace for a few days, and Ashinayan's unruly temperament is obedient to her, and even the prince is very blue-eyed towards her. Her mind is as deep as the sea, and she is not an ordinary person. “

Meng Xiyu's two sentences implied that it was Gu Shuiyue who instructed this matter!

The old princess suddenly opened her eyes and glared at Meng Xiyu, making her shiver all over.

Meng Xiyu sighed in her heart and quickly knelt down.

"Xiyu, do you think that the old body is already old and confused? Can't even tell the truth from the fake? Not only did you calculate Lin'er, but now you have to calculate the old body?"

Meng Xiyu's face turned white suddenly.

"You did it, and you want to take back your power. The old body doesn't care what you do, but your mistake is that you shouldn't use Lin'er and use the old body!"

Meng Xiyu's tears fell: "Auntie, I was wrong, I was confused." I have been in the palace for four years, and in the past four years, the prince has never touched me, and the only thing I have is the power to be in charge of the family. Now Gu Shuiyue is going to snatch my last thing. Without this power in the family, what is the difference between me and those women who have fallen into the cold palace? Auntie, when I began to marry into the palace, I also wanted to be like you, and I was favored, but later I knew that not everyone is as unparalleled in the world as my aunt, and I don't ask for too much now, but only to have a place to live in the palace. “

When Meng Xiyu raised her head again, her face was already covered with tears.

The expression on the old princess's face was a little softer: "Xiyu, even if you are at fault, the old body will not allow outsiders to bully you, as long as the old body is in the palace for a day, there will be a place for you to live in this palace." “

Meng Xiyu wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, and also blocked the smile that flashed in her eyes. Her eyes were full of gratitude, and she bowed deeply: "Xiyu has thanked her aunt, and Xiyu will serve her aunt for the rest of her life." “

"Is that old woman stupid?" Ashina Yan followed Gu Shuiyue back to her courtyard, and as soon as she closed the door, Ashina Yan couldn't help but shout loudly.

Gu Shuiyue didn't have the slightest anger on her face, and she made tea unhurriedly. At this time, when he heard Ashina Yan speak like this, he raised his head and said, "Yan'er, be cautious." “

Ashina puffed out her cheeks, and although she was extremely angry, she still lowered her voice and said: "Shui Yue, this matter is obviously Meng Xiyu's conspiracy, she lifted a stone and hit herself in the foot, and most people can see it, why can't the old lady see it?"

"Why do you think she didn't see it?" Gu Shuiyue asked.

Ashinayan opened her mouth wide and glared at her: "Shui Yue, what do you mean, which old woman already knows......"

Gu Shuiyue nodded.

"She knows that she doesn't punish Meng Xiyu, isn't this a cover-up?"

Gu Shuiyue didn't speak anymore.

Meng Xiyu is the niece of the old princess.

Although she didn't bring down Meng Xiyu this time, she at least confirmed one fact. She has to deal with not only Meng Xiyu, but the old lady of this palace.

The old lady, Gongsun Yi's mother, and the court's wife, this is much more difficult than Meng Xiyu.

Gu Shuiyue came to visit Shuiyue Xuan's shopkeeper again.

Shopkeeper An's temperament is not small, and he actually shut the princess of this Cloud Palace's palace out of the door. Princess Yun was not annoyed, but stood at the door of Shui Yuexuan with a calm face, and even chatted with the maids around her in a leisurely manner.

"The concubine's name is Shuiyue, which has the same name as this pawnshop, it seems that the concubine and the shopkeeper do have a bit of fate. “

What kind of fate, it's obvious that this ghost pawnshop collided with Niangniang's name! This An shopkeeper also doesn't know what to do, Niangniang has come to the door, he actually closed the door and disappeared! It's a shame that his own mother has a good temper, otherwise he would have closed this Shui Yuexuan a long time ago.

Drinking beads thought to herself.

"In the past, there were allusions to the three visits to the thatched house, and the shopkeeper An was extraordinary, so why not wait for the concubine?" Gu Shuiyue said again.

As soon as she finished speaking, the door opened, and Shopkeeper An stood at the door with a dark face: "How do you know if you are the master of the Ming Dynasty or a straw bale!"

Liu Bei, the emperor's uncle of the Ming Dynasty, Liu Chan with straw bags.

Gu Shuiyue still had a smile on her face: "Shopkeeper An will know if you try it." “

Although Gu Shuiyue didn't know how to settle accounts, she had the ability to never forget, and the shopkeeper handed over a set of algorithms to Gu Shuiyue, and she mastered the mystery within three days. This incident has been passed down and passed down as a good story.

Shopkeeper An was convinced by Princess Yun, he had a strange temperament, and he was also a person with a temperament, so he immediately closed the pawnshop and went to be a housekeeper for Gu Shuiyue.

With such a powerful helper, Gu Shuiyue will not settle accounts, and it will no longer be the reason why she can't be in charge.

At the same time, an incident happened in another part of the capital. This is not a big deal, but an ordinary incident of arrears.

The only special thing is that the person who owes the money has something to do with Gu Shuiyue.

The family's surname is Li, and it is Gu Shuiyue's maternal family, after her mother Li married into the Gu Mansion, she was not favored by Gu Cheng, and only gave birth to a daughter. Gu Shuiyue's mother became an abandoned son, and the Li family gradually broke off contact with their mother and son.

Today's Li family is named Li Jingcheng, the elder brother of Gu Shuiyue's mother, and his official position in the court is that of a servant of the ministry. The servant of the ministry, from the third grade, is in charge of the appointment and dismissal of court personnel, and this official position is a fat difference with real power. Li Jingcheng was able to sit in this position, not because of his true skills, but on the other two points, first, the family shelter, and second, he was good at drilling camps and slapping horses.

This Li Jingcheng is a complete villain. When they heard that Gu Shuiyue was bullied in the Gu Mansion, Li Jingcheng and his wife did not have the slightest intention of standing up for her, but were glad that they had cut off contact with their mother and daughter and were not burdened by them.

Gu Shuiyue married into the Yunwang Mansion, and they also had an attitude of watching a good show, and completely dissociated themselves from Gu Shuiyue.

And now, they don't have the heart to watch the excitement.

An IOU was placed in front of Li Jingcheng and his wife, which was written by their eldest son, and he owed 20,000 taels. Of course, if he owes someone else, Li Jingcheng can also use his power to make the other party loosen. It's a pity that the borrower is King Chun, the demon king of the mixed world.

"Master, what should we do? This IOU says that the loan must be repaid within ten days, where can we get together 20,000 taels in these ten days?"

Li Jingcheng is good at management, and he is fat and poor, so he was not short of money, but his eldest son was good at gambling, and gradually emptied his family property, and now he actually borrowed money to borrow money from King Chun's head. King Chun is not easy to mess with, saying that ten days of repayment is ten days of repayment, if he does not repay in ten days, it is very likely that his son will feed his pet tiger.

Just when Li Jingcheng and his wife were collecting money everywhere, but they were still a big gap from 20,000 taels, Princess Yun was eager to seek talent, and finally asked for the shopkeeper of Shuiyue Xuan'an to be the housekeeper.

Princess Yun, isn't it Gu Shuiyue?

As soon as they inquired again, they found that in just a few days, Gu Shuiyue had not only been favored by the Cloud King, but also mastered the financial power of the Cloud King's Mansion!

"The power of the Cloud King is monstrous, and every time he returns from victory, he receives countless rewards, and 20,000 taels of silver is definitely a small amount for the Cloud King Mansion. Shui Yue is our niece, her mother's surname is Li, and she was raised by our Li family. Although he has neglected to move around in the past few years, the blood and family relationship are there, and it is impossible for Shui Yue not to even help with this small favor. Li Jingcheng said.

Mrs. Li was also overjoyed: "What the master said is that tomorrow the concubine will send a message of worship and go to visit Princess Yun." “
