Chapter 81: Princess Jinyang
"Have you heard? The Zhou family fell into the hands of Gao Xuan, the eldest son of the Taiwei, and the end was extremely miserable. Gao Xuan first fed Zhou poison and made her endure the pain of piercing her intestines and belly every day, and when the torture was enough, he threw her into a strange water, and when she fished it out again, there was only a pair of Bai Sensen's bones left. At the turn of the corridor, two little girls gathered together and whispered. As soon as they finished speaking, the two of them couldn't help but shudder as they imagined that scene.
Not only that, but Zhou's father was also imprisoned on charges of taking bribes. The huge Zhou Mansion is afraid that it will be destroyed. It is rumored outside that you must be cautious when giving birth to a daughter, if you give birth to a daughter like Zhou, it will really be eight lifetimes of mold. ”
Su Manman stood at the end of the corridor for a while, and then heard such words, and his simple and lovely face suddenly drooped, as if he was very unsafe.
"Miss. The maid beside Su Manman whispered.
Su Manman turned around and walked in the other direction.
Not only did she not kill Gu Shuiyue this time, but she almost set herself on fire, if it weren't for her cousin Concubine Lian's protection, she might have ended up with the same fate as the Zhou family.
Su Manman has always liked to play with power, but he didn't expect to be disadvantaged.
"Don't underestimate Shuiyue. This is a phrase left for her by her cousin.
Gao Xiuyan died, and the Zhou family also died in the hands of Gao Xuan, and there are only three people left in the entire Qianxin Palace, which is extremely deserted.
Those rumors about the Zhou family had spread throughout the entire Qianxin Palace, and naturally they had also reached Gu Shuiyue's ears.
When Gu Shuiyue heard this, she didn't raise her eyelids, but held her shoes.
Yinzhu glanced at what her mother was doing seriously, and felt that her mother didn't have to be so serious.
It's really my own mother's craftsmanship that is too bad! It turns out that my own omnipotent mother actually has shortcomings.
Gu Tianlan has been holding swords since he was a child, and later became Empress Mochizuki, and wanted to make a purse for the emperor, but he gave up after only half of it. The cloth was cut crookedly, and the needles were too thick, uglier than the cheapest purse on the street.
Except for the last time, this can be regarded as the second time Gu Shuiyue picked up the needle and thread, and she has relived her life, and she still hasn't made much progress.
However, she persevered. Imagining Gongsun Yi with such long boots on his feet is particularly interesting.
After several days of work, Gu Shuiyue's boots were finally completed. She placed her boots on the table and looked at them carefully, finally figuring out some merits. Although these boots are not good-looking, the stitches are dense, and the fabric of the sole is also carefully selected, this shoe is very firm and comfortable to wear.
'Bang bang', someone knocked on the window.
Gu Shuiyue walked over, opened the window, and a black figure jumped in from the outside.
"Gao Xuan, what are you doing here?" Gu Shuiyue was a little curious when she saw someone coming.
She cleared her grievances and helped Gao Xuan catch the murderer who really killed his sister, and there was no connection between the two of them.
Gao Xuan was born tall, with deep facial features, and his eyes were slightly different from those of the Central Plains, but he was undoubtedly very resolute and handsome, and his deep eyes stared at Gu Shuiyue like that.
Her skin is like congealed fat, her facial features are exquisite, and only her lips are a little red, and there is no doubt that her appearance is excellent.
In the face of danger, he is quite courageous.
"Gongsun Yi's vision is not too bad. Gao Xuan said.
Gu Shuiyue reacted quickly, so did Gao Xuan come to praise her?
Gao Xuan's gaze fell on the shoes on the table: "I happen to be missing a pair of shoes." ”
As he spoke, he picked up the boots on the table and quickly jumped out of the window, leaving Gu Shuiyue stunned.
These are the shoes she spent several days and nights making for Gongsun Yi! She must find a way to get her shoes back!
If Yinzhu knew about this, she would definitely feel unbelievable, there are still people who can look at her mother's shoes, how blind it must be!
On the twenty-eighth day of the first month, the emperor feasted the ministers in the palace, and the women of the harem with a little grade could also participate.
In the past few days, Fu Xiaohe has run away from Gu Shuiyue.
Without Gao Xiuyan and Zhou, Fu Xiaohe has no scruples. When she entered the palace, she didn't have any friends in the palace, and Su Manman didn't look down on her, only Gu Shuiyue didn't dislike her.
"Sister Gu, I heard that His Majesty's banquet has another purpose for the ministers this time, which is to choose sons-in-law for several princesses. When the time comes, the entire Shuoyun talent will gather in the palace. Fu Xiaohe said, his eyes shining brightly.
"Isn't there one of these talents that you fancy?" Gu Shuiyue said.
Fu Xiaohe's face flushed, but he still nodded.
"You are in this Qianxin Palace, and when the holy decree comes down, you will be the emperor's woman, but don't think about anything else. Gu Shuiyue said.
She said that these are also for Fu Xiaohe's good.
Since ancient times, it has never been a new thing for palace concubines to have affairs with foreign ministers. But today's saints are not stupid, and once they are discovered, it will be a catastrophe.
"Sister Gu, in fact, there is a precedent for the emperor to reward the people of the Qianxin Palace to the courtiers. As long as the courtier's status is high enough and he asks the emperor for it. Otherwise, why does my sister think Your Majesty wants us to participate together?" Fu Xiaohe said.
This can actually be regarded as the emperor's means of encircling the courtiers.
The banquet was held in the evening, and during the day, the queen's grandmother brought clothes.
"A few ladies from the harem are also going to attend a few dinners. You are not a palace concubine now, don't dress too flamboyant and make a few ladies unhappy. For the sake of several girls, the queen chose simple clothes. The old lady said.
After the old lady left, she shook the clothes she brought: "Niangniang, this is too simple!"
Gu Shuiyue didn't care: "I don't compete with those palace concubines." ”
Gu Shuiyue's appearance is indeed well-born, even if she is wearing plain clothes, she is less bewitching, and has a more sense of purity that comes out of the mud without being stained.
Gu Shuiyue got dressed and was led to the dinner by the eunuch with Fu Xiaohe and Su Manman.
Yinzhu looked at Fu Xiaohe and Su Manman's clothes, and couldn't help but say: "Niangniang, the queen must have done it on purpose, otherwise why are Fu Xiaohe and Su Manman's clothes so gorgeous, only Niangniang is so simple to wear." ”
Gu Shuiyue is not blind, so she naturally sees it.
"It doesn't matter. ”
As the night darkens, colorful lanterns hang from the trees all around. The dinner party set up by the emperor is not ordinary, and the drinking beads are dizzying, and it is really the first time to see such a big world.
"Sure enough, you don't have much knowledge, but you didn't come from in which mountains?" said a maid mockingly.
The maid's master was a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl, who was extravagant and squeamish.
The girl almost looked at Gu Shuiyue with her chin: "You are the Gu family of Qianxin Palace? I don't know which countryside my father took it from, isn't it that there are too many famous girls around you, so you want to change your taste?"
The girl sneered, and left with the mighty maid.
In order to please their masters, those maids deliberately bumped into Gu Shuiyue and Drinking Beads.
After they were all gone, Fu Xiaohe leaned into Gu Shuiyue's ear and said, "That's Princess Jinyang, the emperor's favorite princess, and she was born by the queen." Sister Gu, you should avoid it. Many palace concubines in this palace are quite afraid of her. ”
Princess Jinyang obviously didn't know that she was Princess Yun, and it seemed that her identity was known only to the emperor and empress, Concubine Pian and Su Manman.
Coincidentally, the location of Qianxin Palace is next to the position of the princesses, and Gu Shuiyue's position is not far from Princess Jinyang, and the road is really narrow.
"We are not considered palace concubines now, if there are courtiers who take a fancy to us, we can also ask the emperor for gifts. Fu Xiaohe explained the reason for the arrangement of the seats.
Princess Jinyang saw Gu Shuiyue and stayed away from her, as if she would be infected by her rustic aura.
Princess Jinyang's eyes kept looking towards the entrance of the banquet, as if she was waiting for someone to come: "Sister Huang, the courtiers have arrived one after another, do you think King Yun will come?"
"Since the last royal farewell, King Yun has not been in the palace for a long time on the grounds of physical discomfort. The eldest princess sitting next to Princess Jinyang said.
Gu Shuiyue naturally caught what they said. Last time in the royal business, Gongsun Yi was almost killed by the emperor, and he will not throw himself into the net again.
Princess Jinyang felt Gu Shuiyue looking at her, and snorted from her nose: "Haven't you even heard of the reputation of King Yun, this country woman? Of course, people like King Yun are definitely not within your reach." The King of Clouds is the god of war of my Shuoyun, and his military exploits are outstanding, which terrifies the surrounding countries. As soon as the Cloud King came out, there was no battle that he couldn't win. ”
"Don't you like King Yun, doesn't King Yun have Princess Yun?" Gu Shuiyue said.
Princess Jinyang's words were full of reverence and love for King Yun, and Gu Shuiyue was really sour when she heard it. Gongsun Yi is really good at attracting bees and butterflies.
"Whatever, anyway, this princess likes King Yun. Princess Jinyang snorted coldly, "This princess is much more interesting than the yellow-faced woman in his family, and King Yun will definitely like this princess." ”
Mystery of self-confidence.
"The Cloud King is here!" I don't know who whispered, Princess Jinyang's eyes suddenly lit up, and her gaze fell straight on the tall and straight figure.
Gu Shuiyue followed her gaze and saw the familiar figure.
Gongsun Yi is still dressed in a dark brocade robe, with a white jade crown on his head, with a trace of murderous aura and a trace of a son's breath as warm as jade, as handsome as ever.
Why did Gongsun Yi come to this banquet?
At this moment, Gongsun Yi's eyes swept over, passed through many people, and landed directly on Gu Shuiyue, with a rare smile on his face. Like breaking the ice, because of that smile, his eyes are also extraordinarily tender.
Gu Shuiyue instantly understood his intention, and couldn't help but smile too.
"Sister Huang, Sister Huang, King Yun is looking at me! King Yun is still smiling at me! The gentle King Yun is so good-looking! Isn't it that King Yun has already seen this princess and has long been obsessed with this princess?" Princess Jinyang said happily with excitement in her voice.
Gu Shuiyue: "......"
