The willow leaves have sprouted, the flowers are gradually blooming, and spring has quietly arrived.

The wind blew through the courtyard, blowing up the corner of the curtain, and in the study, the young man was draped, and his wide robe set off his slender figure, but his face was very good-looking, which could be described as slender but not delicate.

The young man was holding a book in his hand, and he sat for two hours, during which a maid brought tea to quench his thirst, and the young man did not have time to take a sip.

Mrs. Li stood outside Li Yan's study for two full hours, looking at her grandson who had suddenly changed sex, and she was extremely relieved.

"There is finally hope for the Li family. “

Mrs. Li sighed softly and left. Her heart was happy, and even her steps were much happier.

Cloud King's Mansion.

The power of the head of the palace has gradually been transferred to Gu Shuiyue's hands. Meng Xiyu has been in charge of the palace for four years, as if she is really tired, she doesn't care about many affairs at all, and she hands over all her brains to Gu Shuiyue.

In the spring, stepping on flowers and looking for butterflies, occasionally holding a paintbrush to draw Danqing, Meng Xiyu became a real leisurely princess.

"What has Gu Shuiyue been doing these two days?"

lost two maids in a row, and the people around Meng Xiyu were replaced by an old woman. This old woman is the person next to the old princess, she has been in the Yunwang Mansion for a long enough time, and she is smart enough, the city is deep, and she is calm, and she is not sure how many times stronger than those young maids.

The old woman said: "Gu Shuiyue's maternal cousin owes King Chun 20,000 taels of silver, and the people of the Li family want Gu Shuiyue to pay 20,000 taels after knowing that Gu Shuiyue is in charge of the backyard of Yunwang's mansion. “

Twenty thousand taels is not a small amount.

"Gu Shuiyue won't come out. Meng Xiyu said.

"Mother, you're right. “

"She has just taken charge of the house, and if she moves 20,000 taels out of the account, she will definitely be caught. Meng Xiyu said.

Gu Shuiyue wouldn't be so stupid.

Since the last incident, Meng Xiyu has re-examined Gu Shuiyue. Gu Shuiyue is not as stupid as she imagined, on the contrary, she is very smart and deeply fights in the backyard. Meng Xiyu thought that Gu Shuiyue was not blindly bullied in the Gu Mansion, she was Taoguang and had learned a lot of methods of fighting in the backyard.

"Niangniang, next month will be the old lady's fiftieth birthday, Gu Shuiyue has just taken charge of the house, this matter is a big challenge for her. The old woman said.

Meng Xiyu listened to this, and the corners of her mouth slowly hooked up a smile.

After having an accountant, Gu Shuiyue had no problem with the accounts. But the head of the family is not only able to settle accounts, but also to handle large and small happy events. Among them was the old lady's birthday. The old princess has an extraordinary status, plus many dignitaries and nobles who have come by then, this is related to the face of the old princess and the palace, if it is messed up, let alone the head of the family, Gu Shuiyue, the princess, will not be able to keep her position.

Meng Xiyu had handled King Yun's birthday before, at that time, the old princess sent several old women around her to assist her, and on her birthday, Meng Xiyu also made a big mistake, if it wasn't for the old princess to calm the field, she didn't know what to do.

And Gu Shuiyue, who was originally an unfavored woman raised in the deep boudoir, even though she had a little scheming and ability, she couldn't take over such a big stall. There was only one henchman by her side, Drinking Beads, and without the assistance of others, it would be impossible to complete such a difficult task.

Meng Xiyu finally understood why the old lady asked her to cultivate her body more, so she didn't need to worry.

"Then let's wait and see the show. “

Meng Xiyu said.

"Niangniang, the fifteenth day of next month is the fiftieth birthday of the old lady, please arrange it earlier. The old lady is a little unwell, and I am afraid that she will not be able to help her mother. The old woman beside the old lady said.

After the old woman left, Yinzhu couldn't sit still.

"Niangniang, how should this be? It is less than a month before the old lady's birthday, and this kind of thing should have been prepared months in advance, how can you arrange it well in a month?"

Such a burden suddenly fell on Gu Shuiyue, not to mention Gu Shuiyue, even the maids around her were stupid.

"Niangniang, why don't you go and ask the old lady for some help?"

Yinzhu walked around the room, and when she saw Gu Shuiyue sitting in a hurry, she couldn't help but be even more anxious: "Niangniang, you have to say a word." “

Only then did Gu Shuiyue look up at Yinzhu: "Do you think the old lady will help us?"

Drinking beads couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when she looked at Gu Shuiyue's eyes.

Will the old princess help them?

Niangniang has just taken charge of the house, so it is reasonable that the old princess should help some of them. Because it's about the face of the palace.

However, why did they inform them when such an important matter was approaching? And they didn't send the next person to help them? And the old lady also made it clear in her message that she was unwell and couldn't help Gu Shuiyue.

It seems that the old lady is going nowhere.

Yinzhu's brows frowned, and he let go again: "Niangniang, why don't you go and mention it to the prince and let the prince send someone to assist you?"

If the prince has any love for the princess, he should not sit idly by and let the mother go into such a dead end.

"Drinking Zhu, do you think it's impossible for me to do this well?" Gu Shuiyue asked.

Yinzhu's face turned pale, and he hurriedly said: "Niangniang, the slave doesn't mean that." But the slave felt that this matter was a pit arranged by someone to make the mother jump in. “

Gu Shuiyue nodded: "This is indeed a pit, they not only want me to jump down, but also want to say that I am buried at the bottom of the pit and will never be able to come up." “

"Mother!" said Yinzhu eagerly.

"And no one is going to help us. The old lady was naturally on Meng Xiyu's side, and King Yun ...... If I can't even do such a thing, how can I stand on the side of the prince?" Gu Shuiyue said.

It's a pitfall, but it's also a challenge.

Gu Shuiyue felt that if she was Gongsun Yi, she would definitely choose to stand by and watch. Gongsun Yi is a little special to her, and she can even use the word 'like', but between the prince and the princess, it is not enough to have love. Gongsun Yi's lover must have enough ability to compete with him.

After thinking about it for a while, Gu Shuiyue felt that Gongsun Yi was actually a good ally.

For her, Gongsun Yi is her enemy, but compared to Li Yejin and Gu Tianqing, Gongsun Yi is at most a villain who has fallen into the ground, and her biggest enemies are Li Yejin and Gu Tianqing. She wants to find Li Yejin and Gu Tianqing to take revenge, and then come to deal with Gongsun Yi. Until then, she can develop Gongsun Yi into an ally.

Gongsun Yi is definitely a good ally, he has scheming, strategy, and strong martial arts. Moreover, he still has some affection for her. She only needs to develop this love into love, and the alliance will be stronger.

This is an opportunity for Gu Shuiyue.

"We don't need anyone's help. I can do this without anyone's help. “

Drinking beads looked at her with some bewilderment.

She naturally knows how powerful her mother is. It's not that she looks down on her own mother, but this matter is too difficult, too difficult for a lady who has not gone through the wind and waves.

This kind of thinking of drinking beads is understandable, because she doesn't know that Gu Shuiyue has experienced a lifetime. In her last life, she was Empress Mochizuki, and she held the birthday banquet of the Queen Mother, and even the birthday banquet of the emperor. None of them were much grander and more complex than what she was facing now.

The only place she is now being detained is that there are not enough people.

"Drink beads, go and call for peace. Gu Shuiyue said.

There were three people in the living room, Gu Shuiyue, An Xian and Drinking Beads. In this huge palace, Gu Shuiyue can only trust these two people.

"Leisure, I will make a list of the things you need for your birthday, and then I will give you the list, and you will buy it yourself, and make sure that there are no mistakes in what you buy. “

"Drinking beads, it is very important that you inquire about the old lady's preferences and taboos from the others. “

"I'm in charge of listing the process for my birthday. “

Gu Shuiyue quickly assigned the task, and everything was arranged in an orderly manner.

Gu Shuiyue's words were calm and calm, as if she was born to be a superior, and An Xian and Yinzhu did not have any doubts about her words.

An Xian took the order to leave, and Yinzhu also inquired with the familiar maid.

"Is there any movement there Gu Shuiyue?" Meng Xiyu asked, looking at her very delicate nails.

"Back to Niangniang's words, there is no movement for the time being, quietly. The old woman replied.

For Meng Xiyu, all this was expected.

It's not that she doesn't want to do it, it's that she doesn't know what to do. Gu Shuiyue, if she is smarter, she should obediently hand over the power of the palace to me. “

Otherwise, when it comes to her birthday, it will be too late for her to regret it.
