Chapter 018: The Coming Storm (6)
Yue Liushao, who was waiting by the lake, saw the master coming over angrily, and hurriedly greeted him and asked worriedly: "Miss, what's wrong with you?" What is Shizi laughing at? Did he bully Miss? β
Gu Yunjin looked back at Dai Jinchao in the Huxin Pavilion like a flying knife, gritted his teeth and said, "Whatever he's a bastard or a madman laughing at, out of sight and out of mind, let's go." β
Bastard? Lunatic? Yue Liushao was stunned, she thought that a person as outstanding as the prince of Nanling, even if the young lady didn't like it, she shouldn't hate it, but she didn't expect the young lady's evaluation of the prince to be like this, looking at their appearance, could it be that they became enemies? If that's the case, how can you get married?
Yue Liushao was thinking wildly, and suddenly remembered something, quickly took two steps forward and approached her and asked, "Miss, who is Miss Meng Wanqing?" Why is she in the palace? What is the relationship with the son? β
Gu Yunjin frowned, looked at her and scolded, "When did you talk so much?" Who is she, and what does the relationship with the palace have to do with us? Don't ask what you shouldn't ask, don't say what you shouldn't say, don't know that there is a saying that 'trouble comes from the mouth'? β
"Yes, miss, the slave knows that she is wrong." Yue Liushao saw that her face was unhappy, and obediently bowed her head to admit her mistake.
Gu Yunjin didn't say anything more, and continued to walk forward, Yue Liushao followed behind her silently.
When she was about to arrive at the Nanling Princess's bedroom, Gu Yunjin saw Meng Wanqing coming from another direction, followed by two maids, holding a tray in her hand, and there were dishes on the tray, which seemed to be a soup porridge meal prepared for the princess.
Out of courtesy, Gu Yunjin no longer walked forward, but stood in place and waited for her to approach, and said with a smile: "Miss Meng is here to visit the princess, just let us go in together." β
Meng Wanqing always looked faint, and said softly: "The princess hasn't eaten since she woke up, so I cooked gruel for the princess and sent it." β
"Miss Meng has a heart." Gu Yunjin responded with a smile again, and his speech and demeanor were dignified and easy-going.
When a few people entered the house, Pan and Princess Nanling were talking about something, and the two seemed to be in a good mood.
"Jin girl, Wanqing, you're back." Princess Nanling saw them come in and greeted them with a smile.
Gu Yunjin responded with a smile, and then walked over to Pan's side and sat down.
And Meng Wanqing picked up the porcelain bowl in the maid's hand, sat on the edge of the bed and fed the Nanling princess porridge herself.
Pan Shi looked at Meng Wanqing and asked curiously, "Who is this young lady?" β
Princess Nanling said with a smile: "This is Meng Wanqing, the daughter of a distant relative of the Dai family, because she was changed by her family since she was a child, no one to rely on, her father and mother entrusted her to the Dai family before leaving, and fortunately with her company and careful care, I feel a little more relaxed and better." β
"I see, it's a poor man." Pan couldn't help but sigh, and then looked at Princess Nanling and said with a smile: "This has been raised since childhood, and it is not the same as his own daughter, and the princess is also a good blessing." She looked at it, she shouldn't be much older than Jin'er, right? β
Gu Yunjin noticed that when Pan said the words 'biological daughter', Meng Wanqing's movements were obviously a little stiff.
Princess Nanling took a sip of porridge from Meng Wanqing's hand before saying, "She, three years older than Jin Yatou, has just passed her eighteenth birthday. β
Eighteen years old? Gu Yunjin was slightly shocked. You must know that the women of the Dacheng Dynasty basically began to discuss marriage when they were twelve or thirteen or fourteen years old, and they could marry when they were fifteen or sixteen years old, and few of them were more than seventeen years old, and Meng Wanqing was eighteen years old, but she still stayed in the palace, could she really be the bastard's roommate?
Pan's surprise Cheng dΓΉ was as good as Gu Yunjin, she was about to ask something, when she suddenly felt that the corners of her clothes were being grabbed tightly, she looked at her daughter beside her, and also realized that there were some words that she should not ask as an outsider, so she tried her best to suppress the doubts in her heart, and changed the topic: "The princess must take good care of her body, it will be the queen mother's birthday in a few days, and the princess must appear radiantly, otherwise, the queen mother will have to worry." β
After drinking the porridge, Princess Nanling wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief and said, "The imperial doctor said that my body is fine, mainly due to hard work, and I can recover after a few days of rest." β
When Gu Yunjin and his entourage left the Nanling Palace, it was already sunset.
In the carriage, Gu Yunjin asked excitedly: "Mother, the fourth brother is coming back soon, and now the fourth sister-in-law can finally rest assured." β
When it came to this, Pan was also happy, "Yes, I heard your father say that he was just able to return before the Queen Mother's birthday." She glanced at her daughter and said, "I heard that the princess of Qingxiao Kingdom is also here." β
Hearing this, Gu Yunjin's face did not change in particular, and he still said excitedly: "The birthday banquet must be very lively on the day, mother, will you take your second sister there that day?" β
The Pan family never thought of bringing a concubine into the palace, after all, such a big scene could not lose the family demeanor in front of everyone. If it was before, she would definitely refuse without thinking about it, but now thinking of the changes in her concubine, and her daughter's calm but implied hopeful gaze, she was a little shaken in her heart, and asked rhetorically, "Do you want to take her into the palace?" β
Gu Yunjin lowered his head and said meekly: "I listen to my mother's arrangement." The main reason is that the daughter and the princess agreed that day, and they should play with her well, and they may not be able to stay by her mother's side all the time to take care of her. β
As soon as her words fell, Pan said: "In this case, then take her into the palace with you." In the past few days, you should teach her some etiquette in the palace, and don't go wrong. β
Gu Yunjin's eyes immediately lit up, and he nodded heavily: "Please rest assured, my daughter will teach her well." β
Although Gu Yunjin has not been here for a long time, she is more attentive to things, and in two or three months, she has basically mastered all the things that she should learn and know, although it is not very fine, but she will never make a big mistake.
At this time, Pan Shi looked at her and asked, "Jin'er, when I was in the palace, I wanted to ask Miss Meng about it, why did you stop me?" Do you know something? β
Gu Yunjin unconsciously fiddled with his fingers and whispered: "My daughter has seen Miss Meng in the palace, and I think she has a cold temperament, and she doesn't seem to like others to inquire about her, so her daughter will stop her mother." β
Pan nodded approvingly, "That's right, and it's also because I was too surprised and impatient at the time." β
Speaking of Meng Wanqing, Pan's brows furrowed unconsciously tightly, and said strangely: "However, this Miss Meng is also strange, she is eighteen years old and has not yet married." I think it's definitely not the princess's reason, I'm afraid it's because she has some ideas and doesn't want to get married. β
Gu Yunjin lowered his head and continued to fiddle with his fingers, responding casually: "Who knows what she thinks." β
When Gu Yunjin returned to Splendid Garden, it was time for dinner, and after running for a long time, he was indeed a little tired, so he directly ordered dinner to be set up and rest while eating.
As night fell, everything fell silent.
In the boudoir where the candle flame was flickering, Gu Yunjin took out the letter pressed under the pillow, stared at it quietly for a long time, and then raised it and lit it on the candle flame.
After a few moments, the smoke vanished, leaving only a cloud of ashes.
