Gu Tingcheng didn't know that such a drama happened to the Gu family on the way to Donghua Palace, if she knew, she would definitely laugh and clap her hands and say that she would be happy. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

It wasn't until the dinner was about to start that Gu Tingcheng saw the Gu family's group walking to the Gu family's seat under the leadership of Old Madam Gu. It's just that Gu Qingcheng found that their faces didn't seem to be very good.

"What's going on with the Gu family, how can you act like someone has robbed you of your money."

Hearing the people next to him talking about the affairs of the Gu Mansion, Gu Tingcheng pricked up his ears and listened.

"Snort, you don't know that, do you? Listening to my cousin who came late just now, Gu Chang'an, the eldest lady of the Gu family, broke the gift given to the queen by Miss Xie Qinglian of the General's Mansion, and Miss Qinglian claimed 30,000 taels of silver from the Gu family. ”

"It's only 30,000 taels of silver, when did the Gu family become so down, and they are still so happy for this little money."

After listening to the explanation, the other person said with a little disdain, in their eyes, 30,000 taels was not a small amount of money at all.

The person who started gossiping saw that he didn't care, and explained to him while snickering: "Thirty thousand taels is nothing, but have you ever seen a jade bracelet of thirty thousand taels?"

Some time ago, I just heard that the Gu family bought a jade bracelet of 3,000 taels in Bai Yuxuan, and now they have lost 30,000 taels of jade bracelets from the General's Mansion. ”

In this capital, who doesn't have a keen intuition. The Gu family has been in turmoil since they received the holy decree of marriage, and today's drama has only just begun.

Gu Qingcheng, who listened to the gossip with his ears pricked up, learned the general situation of the matter, and looked at Mo Lianqi with strange eyes. At that time, after she married into the Jingwang Mansion, she learned that Bai Yuxuan was Mo Lianqi's property. Originally, the 3,000 taels of jade bracelet was made out of this black-hearted goods, so Gu Tingcheng had to suspect that the 30,000 taels of jade bracelet might also be given to the director.

The whispers around Mo Lianqi naturally heard it, and when he saw the distrustful eyes cast by Gu Tingcheng, he suddenly felt that he couldn't speak clearly.

Although he didn't let him do it, it had something to do with himself. The last time Bai Yuxuan happened, after he told Xie Qingjun that the Gu family's money was very good, that guy was worried about it in his heart, and said that he would find an opportunity to do a big deal.

This time, the 30,000 taels of jade bracelet is estimated to be the result of him fooling Qinglian's sister.

"If the king says he doesn't know anything, will you believe it?"

"It's really not you?" Gu Qingcheng asked him a little disbelievingly.

"No, this should have been done by Xie Qingjun. Xie Qinglian is his younger sister. ”

After listening to Mo Lianqi's explanation, Gu Qingcheng finally believed that this matter had nothing to do with him. But who is Xie Qingjun? As soon as he made a move, he made the Gu family lose 30,000 taels of silver, which was cruel enough.

Mo Lianqi didn't know his casual explanation, but it invisibly made Gu Qingcheng's impression of Xie Qingjun more favorable.

Gu Jinlin had already been waiting in Donghua Palace for a long time before he saw that the old lady and her party were late, and hurriedly asked the eldest lady what was going on.

The eldest lady didn't dare to explain, and the old lady had a gloomy old face. In the end, Gu Changping explained the reason to him in a weird way.

"Dad, don't you know, the eldest sister just broke the gift that Miss Qinglian of the General's Mansion gave to the queen on the way to Donghua Palace. Her daughter was in trouble, and the eldest lady gave the general's mansion an IOU of 30,000 taels of silver in order to make amends. ”

Although Gu Changan was unlucky enough to bump into this incident, it did not prevent Gu Changping from gloating and stepping on her.

Gu Chang'an, who was burdened with the gift of breaking the queen's mother in vain, was already unhappy, but when he heard Gu Changping's complaint, his face became even more distorted.

"Gu Changping, if you don't speak, no one treats you as a dumb person, what's wrong with 30,000 taels of silver, and my mother can afford another 300,000 yuan."

This is not Gu Chang'an's big words, the Xiang family has held the stewardship of the Gu Mansion for so many years, and I don't know how much oil and water has gone into her pocket.

"It's not such a trick for the eldest lady to have money, the eldest sister still takes care of her mouth, and be careful of the trouble coming out of her mouth. Maybe it's really another 300,000 taels, but I'm afraid that Daddy's little money is not enough to pay off your debts. ”

The eldest lady's money is not all Gu Mansion's money, and the more the Xiang family loses her family, the happier she becomes. She didn't believe that her father and grandmother didn't feel sorry for the white silver at all.

Gu Changan wanted to refute something, but was stopped by the old lady.

"Enough, they are all young ladies from the Gu Mansion, and the noise and noise make people laugh at it. Don't forget what you're here for today, and if you have the strength, you might as well put more effort into getting down to business. ”

Although the old lady of Baihuahua was also distressed, what she liked most was the face of the Gu Mansion, no matter how she was, she would not lose the momentum of the General's Mansion.

No matter how dissatisfied Gu Jinlin is with Xiang's approach, he is still dominated by old ladies in the Gu Mansion, not to mention his biological mother. In the end, he could only sit down with a breath, and he didn't give Xiang a look.

The eldest lady saw that her husband was completely ignoring her, and a little sadness welled up in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face.

She knew for a long time that Gu Jinlin had only Mrs. Yue in her heart, and after so many years, even if Mrs. Yue was not there, he didn't put his mind on any woman in the backyard anymore. Outsiders envy her scenery, but who knows the bitterness in her heart.

Gu Tianyu is undoubtedly the smartest one, she knows that no matter how she fights, there will be no result, so she will not be resented by the eldest lady like the second sister. She wants to fight quietly, as long as she shines at tonight's banquet, why worry that she will not turn over in the future.

Just when everyone was thinking about it, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Mo Yan arrived. The crown prince was dressed in the red prince's fine clothes, and he also wore a beautiful jade crown on his head.

Gu Qingcheng didn't like this person very much at first sight when he saw the prince, and he knew that he was overindulged by looking at the blue and black under his eye sockets.

Because Mo Lianqi was the nominal imperial uncle of the crown prince, he walked towards them after seeing Mo Lianqi and Gu Qingcheng.

"My nephew has seen the emperor's uncle and aunt."

Although the prince was polite in his words, his tone and expression were not respectful. After seeing Gu Tingcheng's appearance, there was **** plundering in his eyes, which made Gu Tingcheng's heart very uncomfortable.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't need to be polite, today is the birthday of the Queen's mother, and the banquet has not started yet, so His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will preside over the overall situation first."

Although Mo Yanyong looked down on him, the crippled imperial uncle, what he said was reasonable. The queen mother has not yet arrived, and he should preside over the overall situation first to show his honor as the prince. It's just that he still didn't forget to cast an ambiguous look at Gu Tingcheng before leaving.

His own woman was worried about his nephew, and Mo Lianqi's face was as black as charcoal. He squinted his eyes and stared at the back of the departing prince, not knowing what he was calculating.

"Why did the emperor choose him as the prince, can such a person be a good king of a country?"

As soon as Mo Yan left, Gu Tingcheng opened his mouth and asked Mo Lianqi. That ambiguous look still gives her goosebumps until now, it's disgusting.

"The prince is the son of the queen's mother, and the eldest son, the ancestor of Da Chu, can only make him the prince. However, the crown prince was addicted to wine, and many ministers in the court and central government had long had opinions on the prince's style.

The emperor also knew that the crown prince was unbearable, and Concubine Jiang favored the harem, and the three princes she gave birth to were not only talented, but also knew how to be a corporal of etiquette, and many ministers in the court were henchmen of the three princes. Some time ago, a minister had already written to abolish the prince. ”

Not only the three princes are staring at that position, but the other princes have also cultivated their own henchmen, and the position of the crown prince is looking at the scenery, and there are not many people waiting for him to fall behind his back.

Mo Lianqi's meaning Gu Qingcheng understood, and it was precisely because she understood it too well that she didn't want to be involved in this whirlpool.

After His Royal Highness the Crown Prince left, Xie Qinglian, the young lady of the General's Mansion, came over again, and she happily trotted to Mo Lianqi and said, "Brother Lianqi, how are you doing lately?" I heard that you are married.

I'm sorry, my brother and I just came back from the border town and didn't make it to your wedding. This is the sister-in-law. Hello sister-in-law, my name is Xie Qinglian, you are the same as Brother Lian Qi, just call me Qinglian. ”

Xie Qinglian came over like a gust of wind, and kept talking like a cannonball, Gu Qingcheng was surprised for a while before coming back to his senses to greet her.

Xie Qinglian is the Miss of the General's Mansion who cheated the Gu family for 30,000 taels of silver, Gu Qingcheng and her are both the same character, and the two will soon be like sisters.

It turned out that Xie Qinglian had been living in the border city with General Xie, and because of the queen's birthday, she only rushed back to the capital a few days ago.

"Sister-in-law Wang, don't pay attention to the gossip of those laypeople outside, although Brother Lian Qi's legs and feet are inconvenient, but others are very good, and they will be good to you. You can be a princess Jing with peace of mind, and grow old with Brother Lian Qi. ”

Xie Qinglian's personality is straightforward, and her temperament of saying something directly in her heart makes Gu Qingcheng a little unsure of how to answer. She knew that Mo Lianqi was a good person, and she didn't dislike him. But the two of them are just a cooperative relationship, growing old together or something, is it really not that meaningful?

Just when Gu Qingcheng was thinking about how to deal with her, Xie Qinglian's father, General Xie, also came over. It's just that his expression is not so friendly, and he scolded Xie Qinglian as soon as he came over.

"How many times have you said it, don't talk to people who don't know what you don't know. Your brother has been looking for you, so go back to your seat over there with your father. ”

After speaking, he didn't care about Xie Qinglian's thoughts, stretched out his hand and ripped her away, ignoring her and Mo Lianqi from beginning to end, as if they didn't exist.

"Wouldn't this General Xie be a little too unreasonable, how can you say that you are also the prince of Da Chu, he left without greeting him."

Seeing that General Xie returned to their seat with the reluctant Xie Qinglian, Gu Qingcheng said a little unfairly for Mo Lian.

I don't know why, as long as he heard that Gu Qingcheng was upset for him, Mo Lianqi felt warm in his heart. No amount of suffering becomes less uncomfortable.

"Sometimes there are a lot of things that you don't see with your naked eyes as the truth. General Xie was loyal and patriotic all his life, righteous and brave, jealous and hateful. In his heart, the king has always taken him as an example to learn from. ”

What the naked eye sees is not the truth, so what is the truth? When Gu Tingcheng wanted to ask something again, the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother, and the Emperor arrived. Everyone bowed their heads and saluted, and Gu Qingcheng was no exception. Only Morenqi bowed his head in a wheelchair because of his physical inconvenience.

"All the secretaries of the family, get up!"
