I woke up hungry before I usually got up, and when I remembered that I hadn't eaten dinner, I felt my heart close to my back, and I didn't feel confused at all after getting up.

Mother Hu and others came in to serve her after washing, breakfast had already been set up in the room outside the bedroom, according to the breakfast table formulated by Gu Ci, today is preserved egg and lean pork porridge and a few side dishes, as well as a drawer of soup dumplings and a bowl of double skin milk.

After eating a full meal, Gu Ci, who felt full of blood and blue resurrection in place, thought that he hadn't been able to see his mother when he came back yesterday, so he got up slowly and walked towards the upper room.

As soon as she stepped into the door, she shouted sweetly: "Mother, Ah Luan didn't see you last night, I can't think about it!" ”

There were two laughs in the room at the same time.

Belch...... Why didn't the little maid who lifted the curtain remind that there were guests...... Shame on you......

"You little elf, you got up early today, come and meet the two aunts."

Gu Ci fixed his eyes and saw that one was the Zhenyi he had seen at the family banquet, and the other aunt he didn't know was a little older, so she hurriedly stepped forward to salute obediently.

Zhenyi has a cool and pungent temperament, she doesn't have children yet, she loves Gu Ci very much, and hugged her, "Ah Luan can't think about it if she hasn't seen her mother at night, and your aunt hasn't seen you for a few days, so she can't think about it!" ”

"Aunt Zhenyi, I also miss you, I will put the little golden pig you sent at the head of the bed. You'll try my double skin milk in a while, it's delicious. ”

"This is your Aunt Chongyi, she has a lot of good things, you have to slap her well, you know?" Zhenyi whispered to her.

Chongyi is Yuyi's second sister, much older, the oldest of the eldest princesses, and looking at the other two is similar to looking at her daughter. She was tolerant, "You don't want to teach some good ones?" At such an age, he still messes around all day long. ”

"How can I have it, it's not a big deal if I don't get married." It's really ridiculous.

Got JQ? As soon as Gu Ci's gossip radar was activated, he obediently hid to Yuyi's side as a wallflower.

"Whether you get married or not is secondary, you look at how cute Aluan is, you don't want a child of your own?" Yuyi hated that iron could not become steel.

"It's not easy to raise children, eighteen sister, you raised Aluan so well, I come over from time to time to see and be satisfied. There's nothing wrong with not having to do it yourself. ”

Zhenyi is ranked fifteenth, Yuyi is ranked eighteenth, Zhenyi's mother is a die-hard fan of Empress Dowager Xiao, and the relationship between the two is very good.

"Aren't you uncomfortable being at home alone during the Chinese New Year?" Yuyi retorted to her.

Chongyi smiled angrily: "Where is she alone, she has no one to accompany her, but her temperament can't be settled." Letting her marry and have children is like forcing her to go to the execution ground. ”

Huh, hey!? So avant-garde, Dink + face?! Gu Ci suddenly worshiped the radiant Zhenyi, a woman is called a happy life like this!

"Look at what you said, people have to watch slowly, in case I encounter another file, can I still marry three times?"

"You have chosen so many people in your house, and there is no one who is satisfied?!"

"I don't have it, those are just a play to make a name, I'll let them out of the house. You're underestimating me. ”

"It's good that you're not a vegetarian. I'll ask the royal brother to show you someone when you go back, live a good and stable life, don't toss. Yuyi said categorically.

"Eighteenth sister, please spare me, let me see it again, didn't you say that you would marry again."

"Okay, you hurry up and give birth to a child, and we won't care about you when you get married. In a few years, you won't be able to give birth to a parent. Chongyi said very simply.

The villain in Gu Ci's heart made a shout, Mrs. was shocked, you can also borrow seeds to have children, the ancient princess is really strong!

Zhenyi listened to this, and hesitated.

Chongyi made persistent efforts: "Think about the one surnamed Dong before, if you and him have a child, anyway, his whole family will be beheaded, can't you play like now?" It also saves us the trouble of! ”

It turns out that Zhenyi is the princess who found the outer room of the horse breeding, angrily beheaded the dog men and women, and exiled the whole family of her in-laws!? Gu Ci simply worshiped the 360° backflip and Thomas full spin of the five-body throw.

Zhenyi thought for a moment and said, "...... I know, I'll think about it. ”

Yuyi pushed Gu Ci to Zhenyi and said, "Good girl, serve your aunt well, let her know how good it is to have a caring little padded jacket, and you will be able to have more sisters this year." ”

"Auntie, are your younger brothers and sisters okay?"

Zhenyi happily hugged Gu Xiaobihua, "If there is really a little brother, Ah Luan will come and be my daughter-in-law!" ”

"Then I'll become an old girl, my mother will be worried!"

Xu persuaded Zhenyi to make Chongyi relax a lot, and she lovingly pulled Gu to resign, "Your family is really interesting." I didn't bring your cousins and cousins today, next time I go to the house for a light meal and recognize my relatives. Then he began to ask her seriously what she did in her daily life.

Zhenyi was very relieved to see Chongyi shift his target, "The second sister has become more and more powerful in controlling us over the years. ”

Yuyi also persuaded her in a low voice, "Speaking of which, the second sister is also upset, the surname Dong was a jinshi at the time, and everyone who looked at it said that it was good, so she made a matchmaker for you." Who would have thought that he turned out to be a miscellaneous man who abandoned his wife and children. ”

"This is not bad for the second sister, I am not a person who does not know right and wrong. Besides, the old wife in front of him came to Beijing with her child, and Qin Xianglian who has the ability to sue the emperor, I can also throw that Chen Shimei back on their mother and son's faces! is unwilling to be suspended from remarrying, and reluctant to be the official body of the child's father, so he really dares to pretend to be a wife and live in a foreign house. And want to be big with me, when I'm dead?! ”

"Okay, it's all in the past, the family is distributed to the Kang-Tibet Plateau, what else do you have to be angry about."

Zhenyi glanced at Yuyi with a big grin, "Don't think I don't know what people outside say about me, but I heard that I was going to recruit another horse, and it wasn't a swarm of swarms, so I didn't want them to be satisfied." ”

"You're just betting with those stupid people so you don't get married?!"

"Then no one came to ask for a kiss!"

Chongyi, who seemed to be chatting with Gu Ci, but had been paying attention to this side, immediately reacted and asked, "Who didn't come to ask for a kiss?" ”

Yuyi and Gu Ci's two pairs of similar eyes also stared at her together.

Zhenyi opened her mouth and her face was red, and she hurriedly dropped a sentence "No one!" I'll go back and think about it first! And he ran.

***********************

Chongyi and Yuyi were relieved, and ordered someone to find out who it was, and then continued to talk.

Gu Ci saw that the two of them didn't mean to support her, and they also nested on the couch to listen to gossip with peace of mind, handing Chongyi a fruit from time to time and peeling a peanut for Yuyi, so that the two middle-aged beauties were in a moist mood, and the more they talked, the more they talked.

"I'll bother you with a meal at noon, and Xiangyi may bring her daughter with me in the afternoon, I'm afraid that she will entangle you with the little bad things at home, and the marriage of Zhangzhu, and mention it to you. Don't be troubled by me. ”

Xiangyi is ranked nineteenth, half a month younger than Yuyi, the mother who died early was born as a singer, and she was also one of Gaozong's most beloved concubines before her death. Because of Yuyi's protection, she suffered a lot less, and Gaozong's care for Xiangyi from time to time also made Yuyi more common to her father than the emperor, so the two were better like sisters.

"Second sister, what do you say, I'm not the kind of person who is kind enough to treat as a donkey's liver and lungs. I know a little about Xiangyi's family, but what happened to Zhangzhu's marriage? I haven't seen Xiangyi worry about the marriage of Zhangzhu before, so come out and walk around? The palm beads are all fourteen! ”

Wen Changbo is a snob, because Xiangyi has only had one daughter in Zhangzhu over the years, and he is clamoring to take a concubine, and he also said that he can go to his mother and keep his son. In fact, that aunt was already Wen Changbo's outer room, because Xiangyi was infertile and didn't dare to give birth, and she didn't take her into the house until Xiangyi nodded. But this concubine has given birth to two, and the eldest son is only one year younger than Zhangzhu, and I haven't seen anything happen to the aunt. Wen Changbo has always had a very personal relationship with Jing Tianbo, and it was rumored that Sui Zhangzhu would go to Jing Tianbo's house when he was a child, but now there has been a sudden change, which is somewhat unexpected by Yuyi.

"Wen Changbo's eldest son has begun to say goodbye this year, and wants to decide on the girl of the Marquis of Xiuning's mansion, and is ready to send the second son to be the companion of the Nine Emperor Princes this year. On Jing Tianbo's side, as soon as Concubine Chen Shufei's two sons died, Wen Changbo shrank. In the past year, Tian Bo went to visit their house several times, Xu wanted to bring up the marriage again, Wen Changbo was noncommittal, and Xiangyi was in a hurry. ”

“…… No wonder I sent someone early this morning to say that Ah Luan was not a guest, and she still had to bring the palm beads to come anyway, so that's the case. Yuyi couldn't laugh or cry.

"People who are good friends with Wen Changbo outside are now having some rumors, saying that Xiangyi is not virtuous, does not serve Aunt Weng, and treats his concubine unkindly. He also pulled out the fact that Wen Changbo's family worked hard and made great achievements, and when they established the dynasty, they were 'humble and unacceptable', and they were bent on helping Taizong ascend the throne. ”

When the ancestor of Wenchang was killed in Changjing, he and Taizong had an incident in Wuling City, led the army to the king, and later worshiped under the pomegranate pants of Taizong, and made great contributions to the country of Dayu, and was called 'Zhongwu' after his death.

"What kind of thing is Wen Changbo, stepping on a few boats, I really think others can't see it?! Her Xiangyi is surnamed Yuan, can't she be the master of her daughter's marriage? ! ”

Chongyi sighed deeply, "I know that you want to be good with her, but I'm afraid that you will pity you for a while, and you will really respond to something, and you will regret it afterwards and can't say it." If she really asks for something, if you are a little unsure, tell me. There are some things that I can say to you. ”

"You can rest assured...... I don't know what to do. ”

***********************

After lunch, Yuyi took Gu Ci to send Chongyi away, and was talking with several sons in the upper room, when she heard the next person tell her that the mother and daughter of the eldest princess Xiangyi had arrived at the second gate, and Yuyi did not let her son avoid it, and greeted each other with Xiangyi and Sui Zhangzhu.

Xiangyi looked at the four boys with envy, "My sister has both children and daughters, and the four brothers are really ......" She only got one daughter, and she couldn't ask for a son with all her might, but Yuyi had four sons, and she begged for many years before giving birth to Gu Ci.

Yu Yi frowned and interrupted her words, and said softly to Gu Ci: "You and your brothers accompanied Cousin Sui to go around Jiangxue Xuan?" This will be a good bloom, you can drink a little warm wine. He said to Gu Ao again: "Take good care of Ah Luan carefully, prepare a soft sedan chair, and come back as soon as the snow falls." ”

Gu Ao should be yes, picked up his sister, took his younger brothers and Sui Zhangzhu, and walked out surrounded by a group of maids.

When the children walked away, Yuyi said sternly: "Say this in front of the children, what do you let Zhangzhu think?" ”

As soon as Xiangyi said it, she saw her daughter's gloomy look, she already regretted it, and couldn't help crying: "Sister, I saw you today, and I ...... it" She couldn't help but scream sadly, and now she only dared to break down and cry in front of her sister who had loved her since childhood.

Yuyi exclaimed, "What happened to you in the past few months?" ”

Xiangyi just cried, but Mama Xi beside her threw herself at Yuyi's feet and cried: "Eighteen princesses, you have to be the master of my princess, her life is miserable!" ”

Xiangyi injured her body when she gave birth to Sui Zhangzhu, and it was difficult to get pregnant again. Because there is an order in this dynasty, the concubine shall not have a concubine, unless the princess allows, and the title is not inherited by a concubine, and the concubine and heir cannot inherit the title, unless they can seek the emperor's extrajudicial favor. Xiangyi was forced to agree to Concubine Wenchang, in order not to get in the way, let the woman live in Bofu, but she didn't know that she was luring a wolf into the house. This Aunt Wen is very favored, relying on her two sons to be the hostess of the uncle's mansion, faintly meaning that she is two heads older, and now it is said that she has a third child in her belly.

"Last year, the concubine said that he wanted to send Aunt Wen's eldest son to the princess's mansion, but the princess didn't agree. Originally, Uncle Jingtian's family had not mentioned it for a long time, but Layue's family suddenly moved around frequently, and they also wanted to follow the rules of their in-laws' family and the princess's mansion to go for a ritual. The princess asked the concubine and Jing Tianbo's family if they had privately decided on the girl's family affairs, and the concubine forced the princess to agree with the matter of the concubine, "Speaking of this, Mama Xi's tone was full of resentment that could not be concealed, and she said in a trembling voice, "The concubine was so angry that he took the initiative with the princess, injured the princess, and smashed the maid's head, and the person was almost not saved." said to the public that the princess relied on her identity, did not serve Aunt Weng, and did not respect the heroes. ”

Aunt Wen was reluctant to send the child to the princess's mansion when she was young, but asked Wen Changbo to urge Xiangyi to make her eldest son her son-in-law. How could Xiangyi agree. The couple have been arguing about this since the birth of the child, and finally dragged it on until the year before, Wen Changbo was anxious to book a good family affair for his eldest son, and he was ruthless.

"This is to treat himself as Guo Hua, but unfortunately his father is not Guo Ziyi!" Yuyi laughed angrily, and then raised her eyebrows to look at Xiangyi, her eyes were cold, "Could it be that you were beaten, but you recorded those two things in your name?" ”

Xiangyi's tears flowed more urgently, wiped her tears with a handkerchief, and choked up, "I'm useless, and I can't bear this breath, but ......" couldn't cry again.

Mama Xi mourned, "Mrs. Xiuninghou told Concubine Liang about this during the New Year, and the next day Princess Anyang accompanied the sixth princess to visit the New Year, and persuaded our princess with Mrs. Xiuninghou, and the king of Zhongshan also handed over the words, saying that the concubine has a lot to do, don't make a mess and make people laugh." ”

Mrs. Xiuning Hou is Wen Changbo's aunt, is the sister-in-law of Concubine Liang Liang, the sixth princess refers to the eldest princess of Chunyi, whose mother was the most powerful pet of Gaozong, and was defeated by Xiangyi's mother in old age.

Yuyi was angry and mourned his misfortune, and sneered, "Since you pretended to be virtuous and agreed to him to take a concubine, why is this in a hurry?" ”

Xiangyi choked, turned her head in embarrassment, and cried sadly, "I have to think about Zhangzhu in the future, there is no brother to support, where can she stand firm in her husband's house in the future, I think that it is her brother, if she is raised by her side, she is always willing to be close to Zhangzhu." ”

Seeing that she was stubborn and conclusive, Yuyi couldn't help but scolded angrily: "Stupid! Can the dignified county lord still be untenable in her husband's house? No matter how bad it is, it is better to have a side branch child who has no relatives and no reason, than to let the concubine have a child. Think about it yourself with your own brain, hold a child whose parents are dead and no one cares about him to raise him, and you give him fine clothes and food, a bright future, will he not be close to you? Don't miss your kindness? As long as he doesn't want to be drowned by someone spitting on Xingzi, he has to pretend to be filial to his adoptive mother and eldest sister! ”

Xiangyi regretted it and had no place to embarrass herself, so she could only hide her face and cry.

Mama Xi couldn't bear it, "Eighteen princesses, you also know that there is a lot of involvement behind the horses, and our princess is the most kind, so I don't want to meet them in general......"

"Didn't you choose Sui Zidu yourself?!" Yuyi remembered that among the many candidates, she chose this colt just by her looks, so she was angry.

Mama Xie, who has always been a wallflower, stepped forward slowly, helped up Mama Xi, who was crying with Xiangyi, and said, "Hurry up and clean up for your master, there is always a way." ”

Mama Xi got up and wiped her tears with a handkerchief for Xiangyi: "Don't cry, princess, there are eighteen princesses in charge of you, no one wants to bully you." ”

Yuyi glanced at Mama Xi and sneered: "My method is naturally once and for all, anyway, Wen Changbo's house is not clean, you take the evidence and sue the imperial brother directly, so that he has nothing." In the future, if you like it, you can keep it in the house as a face, and if you don't like to throw it aside. ”

“…… I didn't really want to tear my face with him, after all, he was Zhangzhu's biological father, and her reputation was hindered, so I thought that it had nothing to do with the Chu River and Han realms over there. ”

Yu Yi sneered: "You can really bear it!" ”

The tears that Xiangyi had just wiped clean fell again, crying so much that she couldn't help herself.

The dignified princess was pressed by a concubine to the point of being on an equal footing with her, and she didn't want to break the other party's corpse into thousands of pieces and be ashamed, but wanted to settle things. Yuyi was so angry that she really wanted to let go, and suddenly smiled again: "That kid really wants to be a concubine, he has to live in your princess's mansion, and it's not up to you to decide whether he lives or dies?" In your own house, you can always do this little thing, right? ”

Xiangyi gasped, although she wanted to go over to her mother and keep her son, but she never thought about the child's life, in the end, it was still Wen Changbo's bloodline, followed by Concubine Liang Liang, Xiuning Hou, Zhongshan King and Chunyi. This is also the confidence of Wen Changbo to dare to get drunk and beat Jin Zhi, that is, Xiangyi does not dare to offend him.

"What? Can't bear it? ”

Xiangyi snorted: "In the end, it is the heir of Zidu." ”

"If he was really good to the child, why didn't he take the child to the princess's mansion back then? Can the aunt raise the princess the same? ”

"It's the woman who refuses."

She had sent someone to pick up the child, but the woman cried miserably, and her colt softened when she heard the woman cry, and she was very affectionate.

"You and Wen Changbo have two sons and a daughter under their names to be inherited, and now they are just holding the marriage of Zhangzhu as a raft, if that aunt gave birth to a daughter, they are a little bigger, you say, is he willing to be the county lord of Zhangzhu, or his own daughter is the county lord?"

Xiangyi was shocked, the palm bead was her lifeblood, if it weren't for the palm bead, where would she need to look forward and backward so much, not for fear of annoying Wen Changbo, he and those people behind him pinched her. Thinking about these years, Wen Changbo is only afraid that he can't even remember the appearance of the palm beads, where is the feeling. Even if there is, compared with the daughter who is raised by her side, I am afraid that there is not much. She hesitated for a moment, and the expression on her face changed, and she was embarrassed: "If you cross the clear road of hugging in front of Mrs. Xiuning Hou and An Yang, something will happen......

Mama Xi complained on the side: "This Aunt Wen was given to the man by Mrs. Xiuning Hou." ”

"You are also the biological daughter of the first emperor, don't be so soft on your knees! You knelt down first, and you still expect others to lift you? If they dare to question you, let them come to me! ”

Xiangyi has always put herself in a very low position since she was a child, and being taught to be docile and patient has become an instinct for her, and she has to rely on someone stronger than her to live. Don't you know that the more this is the case, the more others look down on her. In this world, there are many people who bully the soft and are afraid of the hard.

Xiangyi gritted her teeth and made up her mind, no matter what, she had to give up Wen Changbo's idea of pinching her daughter first, but in this way, she really tore her face......

She is not afraid of this, what she is afraid of is the eldest son of King Zhongshan, who is nearly ten years older than the serious Yuan Yi's concubine.

She had always been optimistic about King Zhongshan before Yuan Yi was born, otherwise she would not have chosen Sui Zidu. After Yuan Yi was born, she felt that the hot stove that had been burning for many years was not good to put it down, not to mention that it was still unknown whether the motherless sister-in-law could grow up to be a prince, so she turned a blind eye to Sui Zidu's affairs. Moreover, it is rumored that Yuan Yi may not be valued by the emperor, and the queen mother is almost eighty years old, if she goes, what if she ......

Seeing that Yuan Yi was about to tie her hair, her daughter was the same year as him, and their husband and wife unanimously wanted their daughter to become the crown princess. It's just that she knows that Yuyi's road is not easy to walk, so she doesn't dare to act rashly, so she just lets Sui Zidu camp everywhere. Now that Yuan Yi hasn't leaned up yet, will it be too early to offend the King of Zhongshan?

Xiangyi was so entangled that the Jinpa in his hand was about to be crushed.

Yuyi looked at her indecisive appearance, thinking that she couldn't make up her mind to break with Wen Changbo, so she sighed lightly and patted her hand: "I look good at this child, you often bring her to play." ”

Xiangyi was faintly excited when she heard this.

Before Chen Shufei's two sons died, the marriage of Jingtian Bofu was not liked by their husband and wife, and she also revealed to Yuyi the intention of becoming a family of children, but Yuyi has not replied positively, so she lightened her heart. Moreover, the couple had the idea of letting their daughter marry Yuan Yi, and the two had the ambition to suppress their daughter's marriage together without mentioning a word to the outside world. But at the end of last year, Sui Zidu turned his face with her for the identity of the eldest son, and Jing Tianbo came up again, and she couldn't get a word of accuracy, so she became anxious, and wanted to ask Yuyi to help Yuan Yi with her efforts, or to see if Gu Ao's child was possible. Otherwise, I wouldn't have tried every means to bring my daughter to flatter the six-year-old milk doll today. Now Yuyi still never mentions Yuan Yi as always, but she can get a sentence that she can enter the Protector's Mansion, and she is a little relieved.

"Zhangzhu is fourteen years old this year, and I haven't had time to teach her a lot of things, I just hope to be closer to you in the future, and you are so good to point her out."

What Yuyi thinks is that Sui Zhangzhu's family background is good, and she is also weak, the eldest son and second son are all knights, which is definitely not suitable, her mother-in-law has a tough personality, and if the third daughter-in-law is a supple person, then the family must be much more harmonious. Originally, I wanted to wait for Gu Xi's out-of-the-box temperament to stabilize before deciding, but now it seems that I can think about it in advance.

"Ah Luan didn't know any sisters before, and I haven't let her learn needlework yet. Zhangzhu has always been patient, and I am willing to teach her well. If it is suitable, see if she and Brother Xi have a fate. ”

Xiangyi couldn't help but be happy, although Yuyi didn't say anything to death, and she was a little disappointed that it was the third son and not the eldest son, but thinking that her daughter had a good home after all, under the maintenance of the Protector Mansion and Yuyi, no matter who was in power, the status of the Protectorate Mansion would always be not bad.

Her whole person was relaxed, her gratitude was overflowing, and she cried with joy: "Thank you, sister!" Thanks a lot! ”

Yuyi sat quietly and drank tea, and did not comfort her anymore. I had the heart of choosing a daughter-in-law before, and my dealings with Xiangyi over the years, I secretly observed and knocked on the side of Sui Zhangzhu, except that he was a little weak and shy, but there was nothing wrong with it. She wanted to directly open her mouth to settle the family affairs just now, so that Xiangyi would have more confidence to deal with Wen Changbo's aunt and concubine, but she thought of Chongyi's words that specially reminded her, and she was afraid that she would have to make a hasty decision, so she said it vaguely, and first calmed Xiangyi's heart. Moreover, thinking of Gu Ci's appreciation of the Ren sisters' personalities, I don't know if Sui Zhangzhu and his daughter can get along.
