Now in this Guo Mansion, the most important thing is crying.

The second wife in the west courtyard was lying on the bed, and her tears never stopped, and the second old man sat on the side smoking a hookah with a black face.

"This matter has come to this point, and the third master is to blame! It was he who completely angered the emperor, otherwise Ling Zi would never have come to this ......" the second wife said.

"Say no more! Now that this is the case, what else can be done? You, you should have never given birth to him! ”

Hearing such ruthless words, the second wife whimpered again, "The bitterness of pregnancy in October, how can the master know that he has raised him so big, son!" Son! It's better for my mother to die for you! ……”

"It's so annoying! This catastrophe was also caused by himself, who can blame him? ”

"The emperor originally said that he wanted to open the net, as long as the third master was willing to give in, who knew that he was so resolute, so he walked the road to death!"

"You're crying here alone! I'll go out and breathe! After saying that, he left, leaving Zhou to cry and wipe his tears in the house.

When he went out, there was nowhere to go, so he walked to Aunt Li's house, only to see that she and Ling Qi were there, and this was the most peaceful place in the entire Guo Mansion.

"You're still pure here"

"Ling Qi, does the business of the sauce garden and the winery have an impact?"

"Fortunately, now the only income in the whole family is this sauce garden and winery"

Aunt Li poured a cup of tea for the second master and said, "Master, let's relax!" Every individual has a personal life! It's natural for my wife to be sad, you let her do it, and after a while, she will slowly get better, this living person will always live."

The second master glanced at her and said, "What you said today is still more deaf!" Not to mention anything else, your adopted son is indeed better than hers! Ay...... Now it's all up to Ling Qi! ”

Aunt Li smiled proudly, "That's also the master's son!" ”

In the north courtyard, the eldest lady held Ai Ning's hand and sighed, "How can this be good?" Yizhou is so far away, how can you, with a six-month pregnancy, withstand such a long journey on a saddle horse? ”

Ai Ning's face was not very good, but she still comforted her and said: "Don't worry, madam, my fetus is quite stable, although the road is far away, let's take a carriage, I guess we won't be too tired, no matter what, the lord still has an official position, even if he is poorer in the future, everyone can save less!" ”

The eldest lady was very comforted when she heard this: "They all said that I chose the right daughter-in-law, and this is no longer right!" Compared to Dongfuli, we are also good, and we can finally live together, look at the Lingtong girl, it is really pitiful, she lost her parents overnight, and now even her younger brother has been robbed...... Ay...... How ruthless is the emperor! Thinking of our Guo family, several generations of loyalty, but there are such two unscrupulous descendants! Woe to the door! ”

Ai Ning wiped her tears and said, "I thought, before we leave, let's leave some silver for them!" Last night my brother quietly sent someone to send a thousand taels of silver over, although we are also difficult, but it is better to return, there are still some small industries in Xifu, Ling Qi also has some means, and he is not hungry for the time being, it is better to let someone send five hundred taels at night, and don't send it to them, seal it in the jar and bury it under the plane tree in their yard, and then tell Sù Lingtong to say it, and save her to push it, what do you think, Mrs? ”

The eldest lady nodded and said, "Well, just do as you say......"

It was night, the emperor was looking at the excerpts in the Qinzheng Palace, although the old eunuch Wang Xian was scolded and punished for half a year, but he was still on an errand beside the emperor, he and the emperor were master and servants, and they were like father and son.

At this time, two people came outside the palace gate, and the little eunuch at the door saw it and hurriedly stepped forward to say goodbye.

"I want to see the emperor, you go and report it, and tell the emperor, I'm waiting here all night......" The person who came was none other than Concubine Su Gui.

The little eunuch came to the door of the hall and only glanced at Wang Xian, Wang Xian walked out of the door and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

The little eunuch said a few words in his ear, Wang Xian nodded, peeked at the emperor, and cautiously walked to the emperor's side and said, "Your Majesty, the old lady is waiting at the door, saying that she wants to see you."

"Old lady? Concubine Su? The Emperor frowned and said, "What is she here for?" If you come to intercede, you don't have to come in! ”

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid this is not good! The concubine is also an elderly person, and she said that if you don't let her in, she won't leave......"

"She was also favored back then, so in addition to the Queen Mother, she is the most respectful, let her in!"

Su Gui Taigui is wearing an apricot-colored palace dress, her hair is combed neatly and neatly, although she has a spring and autumn season, but she is very well maintained, she looks like a middle-aged woman, she is good at dressing up when she is young, and her whole body is as warm and smooth as a piece of mutton fat jade, which makes people look comfortable.

She walked in steadily, and saluted without humility or arrogance: "It's not the right time for me to disturb the emperor to see the excerpts......"

The emperor looked at her in the light, and his face did not change much, as if time had gone back decades, and he couldn't help but think of the colorful buns she gave herself when she was a child, which was more exquisite than anyone else's, and the clothes she made were the most suitable, and the halva and steamed cakes she made were also very delicious.

couldn't help but soften his voice and said, "I haven't seen the concubine for a long time, but I haven't seen much change!" ”

She smiled, "Your Majesty, this is coaxing me!" How can you not be old! Not an old goblin? ”

"When the Queen Mother had a throat disease and coughed every day, the emperor was worried that she would not be able to take good care of the emperor, so he entrusted the emperor to me, so, nearly a year, right?"

"Yes, back then, the concubine was graceful, and my father was very fond of you, I lived in the concubine's palace, how much halva and steamed cakes did the concubine make? Now, I haven't eaten it for more than ten years, and I still think about it! ”

"After the first emperor died, I didn't want to do it again, the emperor naturally couldn't eat it, but now I brought it specially, does the emperor want to taste it, and see if it's still not the taste of the year?"

"Oh? That's nature! ”

Concubine Su Gui clapped her hands, and the personal palace maid Lu Ya who followed outside the hall knelt in and came in and presented a pastry box, Wang Xian hurriedly brought it over and opened it in front of the emperor, and there were two snack boxes inside, one was halva and the other was steamed cake.

The emperor couldn't care about anything when he saw it, so he reached out and took it and ate it, while eating, he closed his eyes and tasted it, and kept nodding his head and saying, "It's delicious!" It's exactly this taste! The concubine's craftsmanship has not changed at all...... "Then I tasted the steamed cake, and I was also full of praise!"

Concubine Su Gui only looked at him with a smile, her eyes were full of love, and her mother's gaze was probably the most relaxing, and the emperor sighed with satisfaction and said, "I'm done eating, if you have something to say, just say it!" ”

Concubine Su Gui knelt down slowly, and the emperor hurriedly said, "What is the concubine doing?" I rule the world with filial piety, how can I make you kneel to me? That's not a good number! ”

The concubine knelt down and said, "What I say next may be against the emperor's dragon ears, so I will ask for the guilt first!" ”

"Get up and speak! I promised the concubine that no matter what the concubine said, she wouldn't be angry! ”

"Well, I have nothing to say if the emperor wants to punish the Guo family, I have nothing to say about the demotion of Uncle Guo, and I have nothing to say about moving to Yizhou to be a general sentence, just the same, my baby Ai Ning is now six months pregnant, and she has to go to Yizhou for a long time, but I can't stand it, and I don't worry!"

"His Guo family is sorry for the emperor, my Su family is not sorry for the emperor, the emperor was in turmoil, the treasury was empty, and the court couldn't get the silver, but our Su Mansion took 200,000 taels of silver to help the country tide over the difficulties, so I rushed to this loyalty, and the entire court couldn't find a second one! Now I'm here to ask for a favor, ask the emperor to allow her to go back to her parents' house to give birth, and it's not too late to go when the little great-great-grandson turns one year old! After speaking, he breathed a long sigh of relief, sat upright and stopped talking.

The emperor knew that what she said was the truth, and the court really owed the Su family a big favor, and the concubine's request was not too much.

He said quietly, "I promise you!" Su Aining was allowed to return to Su Mansion to give birth until the child was one year old. ”

"Just rush to the emperor's words, if there is a need for the Su family in the future, the Su family will definitely work for dogs and horses!"
