Chapter 022: The Disaster

Gu Jialuo had a bad premonition, and his smile couldn't help but fade, "What words?" Splendid, just tell me. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Huo Jinxiu swallowed her saliva and said with a little embarrassment: "When I meet my mother, if my mother says something bad, please look at my face and don't worry too much." ”

Gu Jialuo frowned slightly, becoming more and more puzzled: "Jinxiu, but what did I do badly and offended my aunt?" ”

Huo Jinxiu's mother, that is, the wife of Huo Menglong, the general of Zhenguo, is from the Jizhou clan, and it is said that the ancestor is the famous Boling Cui clan.

As for whether it is a chisel or not, it is difficult for others to say, but Cui's maiden family is indeed a family in Jizhou, and it has been an official slaughterer since the previous dynasty, and it is an authentic official eunuch family.

And Cui herself is also a typical noblewoman who is knowledgeable, gentle and virtuous, and marrying the military general Huo family is definitely a marriage.

Gu Jialuo was friendly with Huo Jinxiu when he was young, and Cui's and Song's were also old friends, so Gu Jialuo was no stranger to Cui's, and he called him 'aunt' whenever they met.

In Gu Jialuo's impression, the Cui family treats the younger generation very kindly, but now that Huo Jinxiu said such things, she couldn't help but beat a drum in her heart.

I can't help but speculate, is it the trouble caused by the 'tenant' again?

But the problem is that Gu Jialuo repeatedly studied the 'crossing diary' left by the 'tenant', and found no records about the Huo family.

"No, no, Garo, you didn't offend your mother, but、Instead~~"

Huo Jinxiu waved her hand again and again, biting her lower lip lightly, she hesitated again and again, leaned into Gu Jialuo's ear and whispered: "Our Huo family went to Beijing for more than three months, but then returned to their hometown overnight because of some things, have you ever heard of this?" ”

Gu Jialuo nodded, "I heard that the lady of the house is slightly ill, so-"

Huo Jinxiu hummed and continued: "My grandmother suffered some hardships when she was young, and her health has not been very good, and this time it is even more dangerous~ Alas, after our family heard the news, they were so shocked that their souls were gone...... My father and mother felt that they were unfilial and could not serve my grandmother, so that my grandmother was dying, and our family was not nearby......

Huo Jinxiu couldn't hide her shame and said, every time she thought that her grandmother could only hide in her hometown for some reason, they were extremely sad as juniors.

Especially after experiencing Mrs. Tai's critical illness and the family's almost separation of yin and yang, Huo Menglong and the others only felt sorry for Mrs. Tai, and hated the vicious woman who ruined Mrs. Tai's health more and more, and then turned their anger to some unrelated others.

And Gu Jialuo suffered from the disaster of no reason.

"Jinxiu, maybe it's not appropriate for me to say this, but since Mrs. Tai is not in good health, and General Huo has been transferred back to the capital to take up a post, why don't you just take Mrs. Tai to the capital?"

After Gu Jialuo heard about the Huo family, he had already had this question in his heart.

The capital is the political center of Daqi, and it is the most prosperous place in Daqi, and in the capital, whether it is the medical conditions, or the material conditions such as medicinal materials and ingredients, it is also much better than other places.

Huo Menglong took the post of the governor of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, and in the next few years, he will be in charge of guarding the capital in the capital.

But after Huo Menglong's family recovered from serving Mrs. Tai in their hometown, they left their old mother behind and only led his relatives into Beijing.

It's a bit weird no matter how you look at it.

Huo Jinxiu smiled bitterly and whispered: "This matter, alas, is a long story, and when it comes to this matter, I have to tell the story of my grandmother." Garo, do you know where my grandmother's family is? ”

Gu Jialuo was stunned, not to mention, she really didn't know the origin of Mrs. Huo's family.

Gu Jialuo didn't say anything, only shook his head blankly.

Huo Jinxiu continued to smile bitterly, "It's not just you, I'm afraid it's your mother, Mrs. Song, who may not have heard about my grandmother." I also found out recently. ”

If it weren't for her mother's inexplicable disgust for Gu Jialuo, Huo Jinxiu kept asking in shock, then she wouldn't know about that old case at this moment.

Gu Jialuo raised her eyebrows, she had a feeling that this matter might have something to do with her.

Huo Jinxiu didn't sell Guan Zi, and said briefly: "My grandmother's maiden name is Lu, and my ancestor followed my grandfather to fight the world, and together with other colleagues, I was given a nickname by the world, twenty-eight tiger generals. ”

Gu Jialuo's mind quickly flashed the information of the twenty-eight tiger generals, and then suddenly showed a shocked expression, "Lu family? That Lu family in Yuwangfu? ”

It is said that the twenty-eight tiger generals of that year, after following Grandpa Gao to conquer the country, were rewarded for meritorious deeds, and were respectively awarded the titles of King of One Word Side by Side, Duke of the Founding County, and Marquis of the Founding County.

That is, the so-called four kings, six dukes and eighteen princes in the world.

The four kings refer to the kings of Wei, He, Ji, and Yu.

Among them, the Weiwang Mansion was demoted because of the seizure of the heir and became the Weiguo Mansion; The king of Ji and the king of Ji died young, and they had no heirs, and the prince was taken back by the imperial court; Among the four major royal mansions, there is only one Yu Wangfu Lu family.

And the reason why Yuwangfu was able to escape the bloody purge in the last years of Gaozu and the succession of Taizong was that in addition to the caution of the Lu family, there was another very important reason.

That is, the prince of the Lu family married the eldest princess of Pingyang, the most favored sister of Grandpa Gao.

The eldest princess of Pingyang, the widow daughter of Grandpa Gao's father, Grandpa Gao was raised almost as a daughter.

Because of her, there is an aristocratic prison in the capital that imprisons errant female dependents - Tiejian Nunnery.

Gu Jialuo's eyes flickered, she seemed to think of something, but she was not sure, she pursed her lips and muttered: "Could it be that the noble lady who was humiliated to death by the eldest princess of Pingyang back then, is, isβ€”"

Huo Jinxiu's lips trembled violently, her eyes were covered with a layer of mist, and she said in a thick nasal voice, "That's right, the innocent and tragic lady is my grandmother's mother-in-law, the princess Ruan of the Yu Palace." ”

Suddenly, Gu Jialuo understood a little.

At that time, Pingyang took a fancy to the prince of Yuwangfu, but the prince had already married a wife, and his daughters were several years old. And the relationship between the prince and his wife is very good, the prince does not even have a concubine, and the family of three is very harmonious.

Pingyang is an arrogant person, she doesn't care whether the son has a wife and a daughter, since she has a fancy to this person, she wants to marry him.

Pingyang's biological mother, Concubine Mu, summoned Princess Yu into the palace, and Haosheng hinted: Dear, congratulations, our precious princess has taken a fancy to your son, why don't you hurry up and deal with the Ruan family, and then happily come to marry the princess?

What the?

How did Nguyen deal with it?

This is not simple, the Ruan family has not had a son for six years of marriage, and a 'childless' can divorce her.

What the?

The Ruan family was born in the Women's Army, and with Empress Zhenlie as a backer, can't he just give up?

This is also simple, you can't take a break from Ruan's family, then let her 'die of illness', so that the queen's face can also be taken care of, and the women's army can also be appeased. After all, people eat whole grains, which one doesn't get sick?

What the?

That unlucky child doesn't want to divorce his wife?

This...... It's a little difficult to do, the man is unwilling to do this kind of thing, even Concubine Mu can't press someone's neck to force him to agree.

Binh Duong didn't care about this, and after hearing the news, he ran out of the palace to find trouble with the Ruan family.

It just so happened that Ruan went to Wei Wang's Mansion to chat with his comrade and best friend Wei Wang's concubine Liu, and on the way back, he met Pingyang.

It was the height of summer in June, and Nguyen was wearing a light monofilament skirt, and when Binh Duong saw it, he suddenly became malicious and whipped Ruan's dress with a whip in public.

Binh Duong still refused to give up, and ordered people to find more than a dozen obscene and despicable idlers, coaxing and flirting around Ruan's, and kept saying some unbearable obscene words.

It was easy to return to the Yuwang Mansion, Ruan was ashamed and angry, and there were whip wounds on his body, and what was even worse was that Ruan was two months pregnant, and after some tossing, Ruan had a miscarriage that night.

The people of the Yu Wangfu hurriedly went to ask for the imperial doctor, who would have thought, Pingyang actually ordered people to guard the gate of the Yu Wangfu and did not allow the people of the palace to enter and leave.

Now, to put it mildly, it is too much of a doctor, even an ordinary doctor can't be invited, because the people in the palace can't go out at all.

…… Binh Duong's move made it clear that he wanted Ruan to die.

As for Ruan, he was ashamed, seriously injured, and miscarried, and died in less than two days.

The tragic death of the Ruan family immediately aroused the righteous indignation of the women's army led by the princess of Weiwang, Liu, and the Liu family directly changed into the armor of the women's army, and broke into the palace to beg Grandpa Gao and Empress Zhenlie to make decisions for the Ruan family.

The prince of King Yu also secretly hated, for the sake of his family, he clearly did not dare to offend Pingyang, but secretly united several imperial historians and impeached Pingyang fiercely.

Seeing that Pingyang's move caused public anger, and Empress Zhenlie also said that he should be severely punished, in desperation, he thought of a compromise and built a nunnery for Pingyang to 'think', which is the famous Tiejian Nunnery.

However, Grandpa Gao felt sorry for his younger sister, Pingyang only lived in Tiejian Nunnery for one year, and after the turmoil subsided, Grandpa Gao released Pingyang.

And in accordance with Pingyang's wishes, he married her to Lu Zixiu, the prince of Yuwangfu.

Lu Zixiu originally refused to marry such a vicious woman as Pingyang, but at that moment, Grandpa Gao raised his big knife and prepared to 'clean up' the twenty-eight tiger generals.

King Yu is a king with a different surname, and he is worried that Grandpa Gao will take the first one to open the knife, weigh the pros and cons, and finally decide to marry Pingyang.

Sure enough, after Pingyang married the Lu family, the Lu family successfully escaped the purge of Grandpa Gao, the prince was saved, and the family was also saved.

The only one who was tormented was the daughter left by the Ruan family, Sister Lu.

It was still the concubine of King Wei, Liu, who cared about the friendship with the Ruan family, and took Sister Lu to King Wei's mansion to raise her personally.

Later, it was also the Liu family who made the decision and married Sister Lu into the Huo family.

"When my grandmother married my grandfather, Pingyang even said that my grandmother was not allowed to be in the capital, but my grandmother was not afraid of this poisonous woman, but she didn't want to cause trouble for the Huo family. It just so happened that my grandfather was a military general, and I followed the British Duke to guard the northwest, and my grandmother followed me to the northwest. ”

Huo Jinxiu couldn't hide his resentment and said: "Although Pingyang is dead, but now King Yu is the eldest son of Pingyang, although he and his grandmother are sisters and brothers from the same father, but they are enemies of each other, so for more than 40 years, grandmother has never set foot in the capital half a step."

Gu Jialuo completely understood that the tragedy of the Lu family was caused by Pingyang, and it is not difficult to understand that the Lu family hated Pingyang and then angered those who had something to do with Tiejian.

In addition, Gu Jialuo also understood why the Qiu mother of the Weiguo Mansion hated him for no reason...... Alas, everything is caused by the three words 'Iron Threshold An'! (To be continued.) )
