Chapter 409: Resolutely
Gu Yanhe's face was deep and noncommittal,
Gu Hong frowned, and said unhappily: "This bastard boy, he is really getting bolder. He didn't even discuss with us, so he quietly went to ask the queen. Now I'm afraid that this matter has spread. ”
The wind and grass in the palace can't hide from anyone at all. In just this half a day, the matter of Empress Gu summoning Ye Qinglan has probably spread all over the famous families of the noble family in the capital.
"What about getting around?" Sun said disapprerovingly: "Anyway, the queen mother has not officially decreed the marriage, so we should not have such a thing." ”
Isn't this a self-deception? Gu Hong frowned, but he didn't say anything.
Mrs. Zheng said, "That's not good! There are many people who know about Sister Lan's entry into the palace. If we just don't have this kind of thing, won't we hurt Sister Lan? "How will Ye Qinglan marry in the future?
Sun snorted lightly: "According to what you say, we still have to admit this family business?" ”
Mrs. Zheng was choked up for a moment, and she was silent.
Gu Xiyu suddenly burst out again: "Cousin Lan is so good, why does grandmother dislike her so much?" ”
Sun glared at Gu Xiyu unhappily, and said angrily: "I don't like her, do you need a reason?" ”
If it had been someone else, he would have stopped talking a long time ago when he heard such a tone. But Gu Xiyu has never had the habit of looking at people's faces and speaking: "Grandmother, this is prejudice." ”
Sun's face darkened when he heard this.
Gu Xiuhe finally opened his mouth to speak: "Okay, don't talk about it." What the hell is going on, wait for Xi Nian to come back and ask clearly. ”
Sun snorted softly. Finally stopped.
I waited until after dinner. Gu Xinian only returned home at a moment's notice. The little guy who had been waiting in the concierge hurriedly said, "The prince is finally back." Grandpa Guo and the old lady are all waiting for you in Shunyi Hall. ”
Gu Xinian raised his eyebrows and hummed casually. Unhurriedly, I went to Shunyi Hall. As soon as I stepped into the main hall, I saw everyone's eyes looking at each other, with a bit of inquiry in their eyes.
Gu Xinian knew what was going on, but he pretended to be stupid and said with a smile: "It's so late, why don't your grandfather and grandmother rest?" ”
"Of course I have something to ask you." Sun couldn't hold his breath, and hurriedly asked: "I heard that the queen mother summoned Ye Qinglan's girl into the palace today, is this your force behind the scenes?" ”
Gu Xinian unexpectedly admitted: "Yes, it was indeed me who went to beg the queen mother." ”
……
Conjecture is conjecture. But when they really heard Gu Xinian admit it in person, everyone was shocked. The rare collective was stunned.
Gu Xiyu was not surprised at all, and looked at Gu Xinian dissatisfied: "Big brother, how can you do this." "In this way, Cousin Lan will not be able to marry someone else.
Gu Xinian smiled faintly: "Of course, I have a reason why I have to do it." Yu'er, I'll explain it to you later. ”
Gu Xiyu nodded reluctantly.
"What do you mean you have to do," Sun finally came back to his senses, and his face turned up in displeasure: "Such a big thing." How can you act on your own initiative. At the very least, you should consult with us! ”
If so, is it possible for them to agree? Gu Xinian smiled noncommittally and said lightly: "Now I know that it's the same." ”
Sun's anger suddenly came up: "How can this be the same." Now everyone knows that the queen mother has seen Sister Lan, and they will definitely think that the queen mother is going to marry Ye Qinglan for you! What will others think of our Dingguo Mansion at that time? ”
Gu Xinian had expected such a reaction from the Sun family. responded indifferently: "I am unmarried, she is unmarried, and it is even more joyful to have the queen's mother to marry." Even if someone else knows about it, what's the matter? ”
"I don't agree to this family business. You dispel this idea as soon as possible. Sun Shi had a straight face, and his tone was scathing: "Just a concubine." is also trying to climb our Dingguo Mansion in vain, which is simply a joke......"
Gu Xinian calmly interrupted the Sun family: "Grandmother really wronged Cousin Lan when she said this." Actually, I like her. That's why I did everything possible to ask the queen for her approval. Agree that we will be given marriage later. ”
……
Sun was speechless, and looked at Gu Hong hatefully: "Look at your good son, you don't take my grandmother in your eyes at all." ”
Gu Hong has always been filial, and when he heard this, he immediately glared at Gu Xinian with a calm face: "How did you talk to your grandmother?" ”
Gu Xinian apologized insincerely: "If there is something I can't say, I hope my grandmother doesn't take it to heart." However, I have already made up my mind that Cousin Feilan will not marry. I hope my grandmother can make it happen! ”
Sun's face flushed angrily: "No! I would never agree with it! ”
Compared with Sun's excitement, Gu Xinian seemed very calm: "This is my lifelong event, and the person who wants to live with her for the rest of my life is also me." Why is the grandmother so vehemently opposed? ”
"She's just a concubine, and she's not worthy of you at all." Sun's tone was full of disdain: "If you marry such a woman and come back, where will the face of our Dingguo Mansion go?" ”
Gu Xinian tugged at the corners of his lips: "I didn't know until today that the face of our Dingguo Mansion is so worthless, just because marrying a concubine will not be able to raise your head in front of others!" ”
Sun: "......"
Facts have proved that with Gu Xinian's "combat effectiveness", Sun is not his opponent at all. Defeated in just two rounds.
Gu Xiyu didn't say a word, Mrs. Zheng looked at Gu Xinian's seemingly indifferent but resolute expression thoughtfully, but Gu Hong frowned and reprimanded: "You are too presumptuous!" How can there be such a child's play in a lifelong event. ”
Gu Xinian evoked a sarcastic smile: "Is there still less child's play in our house?" Five years ago, when I participated in the scientific expedition in the Gongyuan, how did Shen Qiuyu get married? ”
……
There was silence.
Even Gu Xiuhe, who didn't move the eight winds, was shocked.
Since Shen Qiuyu got married five years ago, this name has become the most taboo topic in the house. At most, everyone occasionally mentioned it in private, but they didn't mention it in front of Gu Xinian. I didn't expect Gu Xinian to take the initiative to mention it, but he still used such an understatement tone!
When it comes to Shen Qiuyu, the most embarrassing person is the Sun family. On that day, in order to fulfill the crown prince, the Sun family strongly advocated preparing for family affairs behind Gu Xinian's back. As a result, while the prince was satisfied with his wish, Sun also completely lost his grandson's respect for his grandmother.
Since then, Sun's feelings for Gu Xinian have become more and more complicated and contradictory. The kind of guilt that can't be said also makes the Sun family less confident when facing Gu Xinian. Whenever Gu Xinian looked at him with that kind of smiling eyes, Sun would unconsciously retreat......
"Xi Nian," Gu Xiu looked at Gu Xi Nian fixedly: "Have you really made up your mind to marry that girl?" ”
Facing the majestic and deep Dingguo Gong, Gu Xinian's attitude was much more restrained, but his tone was still resolute: "Yes, I hope my grandfather will be successful!" ”
In the Dingguo Mansion, the person who really made the decision was not the short-tempered Sun family at all, but the silent grandfather Gu Xiuhe. If you want to marry Ye Qinglan, you must pass the level of Gu Xiuhe.
Gu Xiuhe's eyes narrowed slightly, and he asked slowly, "If I don't agree, what will you do?" ”
Gu Xinian's tone became respectful: "Grandfather has always felt sorry for his grandson, and he must be reluctant to let his grandson lose his soul for a woman. ”
…… At first glance, it sounds like a plea, but when you taste it carefully, it is clearly a threat. almost didn't say directly, "If you don't let me marry her, I'll pick and choose to do it immediately."
Gu Xiuhe was so shrewd, how could he not hear the meaning of his words, and raised his eyebrows when he heard the words: "Are you threatening me?" ”
"Grandchildren don't dare." Gu Xinian said that he didn't dare, but the look on his face was not the same at all: "What is the grandson's temperament, grandfather must also know very well." After Shen Qiuyu got married, I was depressed for four years before I cheered up. Now that I finally have someone I like, if my grandfather doesn't agree to this family business, I will never talk about marriage in the future, and I would rather die alone and alone! ”
The last sentence was like a bombshell, and everyone who was shocked couldn't come back to their senses.
Mrs. Zheng was the first to come back to her senses, and said anxiously and nervously: "Xi Nian, you can't just talk nonsense......
"Mother, you should know very well that I am not talking nonsense." Gu Xinian's tone was indifferent, but his eyes were very firm: "If you all insist on opposing it, then don't get married in front of me from now on." ”
Anyone can see that Gu Xinian is by no means joking.
Mrs. Zheng was dumbfounded, and glanced at Gu Hong for help. Gu Hong took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "This matter came too suddenly, we have to let us discuss it slowly." ”
It's also a bit sad to say. Other families are sons who listen to Lao Tzu's words, but when it comes to Gu Xinian, this article is completely inappropriate. Gu Xinian seems to be gentle and casual, but in fact, he is the most assertive, and no one can force him to do what he doesn't want to do. In the same way, it is not easy for him to stop what he has to do. Therefore, no matter how unhappy Gu Hong is, he can only use the word "drag".
In fact, such an attitude has softened.
Gu Xiuhe didn't speak, and acquiesced to Gu Hong's way of dealing with it. Sun Shi was holding a breath in his heart, and was about to make a sound, but Gu Xiuhe glanced at her lightly.
Sun swallowed back the words that came to his lips aggrievedly.
Gu Xinian was well versed in the principle of accepting it when he saw it, and nodded in response: "Okay, then I'll wait a few days." After a pause, he said goodbye politely: "It's not early, so I won't delay my grandfather and grandmother to rest." ”
Gu Xiuhe nodded: "You also go back to rest early, and this matter will be discussed in a few days." ”
Out of Shunyi Hall, Mrs. Zheng finally couldn't help it: "Xi Nian, what's going on with you and Sister Lan?" (To be continued......)
