A hint of mockery flashed in Gu Xinian's eyes.

It's a shame that the prince has the face to boast, saying that no matter what matters in the inner house, there is no distinction between wives and concubines, holding Shen Qiuyu in the palm of his hand and pampering him, the dignified princess Mo has become the decoration of the prince's mansion.

In his previous life, whenever he thought about this, he only had anger and jealousy in his heart. But now that I think about it, there is only a trace of pity. The prince, like him in his previous life, was deceived by Shen Qiuyu, who was good at pretending. mistakenly regarded a peerless poisonous flower as a rare treasure.

However, Concubine Lin, who had just given birth to Brother Ming'er recently, can be regarded as Zirong's mother, although she has not been able to compete with Shen Qiuyu for the time being. However, it is enough to become a thorn in Shen Qiuyu's side.

As long as he thought of Shen Qiuyu's uncomfortable life, he would feel very happy. Therefore, from time to time, when Brother Ming is mentioned in front of the prince, he wants the prince's heart to gradually deviate to the child.

Seeing that Fengyi Hall was outside, Gu Xinian suddenly stopped and said in a low voice, "Cousin, I have something to ask you." ”

The prince replied without thinking: "I am so polite to me, what do you ask for, just say something." I will promise you. ”

Gu Xinian raised his eyebrows and asked slowly, "Really?" Will you answer me whatever I ask you? ”

The meaning in the words is profound, and it makes people's hearts beat when they hear it.

The prince smiled, and a ridiculous thought flashed through his mind. Gu Xinian...... Could it be that he was asked to return Shen Qiuyu to him...... Phew, what's not to pay back! The two did not have a formal marriage contract that day, but when they married Shen Qiuyu, they were married in the door, neither stealing nor robbing, what is the good heart? Besides, it's impossible for Gu Xinian to make such a ridiculous request!

The prince calmed down, pressed down the trace of weakness and uneasiness in his heart, and said with a smile: "Then I have to listen carefully." What the hell are you asking of me? "In the end, I didn't dare to pat my chest again and say yes.

Gu Xinian's thoughts about the prince were as clear as a mirror, a trace of mockery flashed in his eyes, but his voice was lowered: "This matter is a long story, I'll just say it simply!" When I see my aunt later, I want to beg my aunt to give me a decree that I will be allowed to make my own decisions about my life's affairs in the future. When the time comes, you'll have to intercede for me. ”

This matter has been planned in Gu Xinian's heart for a long time.

Ye Qinglan's identity as a concubine is indeed a big trouble. However, it is not without a solution. If you start from your grandfather and grandmother, they won't nod their heads. When the time comes, there will be a lot of trouble. The cleanest way. is to ask Queen Gu to give a decree to give marriage. With Queen Gu personally giving the marriage, the Dingguo Mansion naturally had nothing to say, and no matter how reluctant they were, they had to happily prepare for the wedding.

And for women. The Queen's marriage is a supreme honor. In the future, Ye Qinglan will marry into the Dingguo Mansion, and no one will dare to make irresponsible remarks about her identity as a concubine.

The most critical question now is, how can we convince Empress Gu to make this decree?

If he is allowed to be arranged by Queen Gu, I am afraid that she will not hesitate to marry a famous lady like Zhang Yue to him. Just to get another boost for the prince. So, he must throw enough bait. The benefits that are more tangible than marriage can make Queen Gu's heart move.

In his previous life, he was a member of the Three Princes' faction, so he naturally knew everything about what the Three Princes did secretly. Now, this qiē has become his most advantageous weapon. As long as it is properly arranged, it is enough for the three princes to make a ruthless mistake. If this information is revealed to Empress Gu a little, it will be known. She will definitely make the wisest choice.

When opening your mouth, it is naturally important to have someone to help you intercede. The crown prince is the obvious candidate. He was almost 100% sure that the prince would definitely promise himself!

The prince was taken aback by Gu Xinian's words: "You...... How did you suddenly have such a thought? Did your grandfather force you to get married? ”

Gu Xinian snorted. said lightly: "I won't tell you the truth, they have always wanted me to marry a young lady from the British Mansion." However, I don't want to, so I want to ask my aunt to make a decree. ”

Why not? This sentence almost rushed out of his mouth, but he finally swallowed it back in time. The prince's expression was slightly embarrassed.

Does this need to be asked? Gu Xinian has always refused to marry. Of course, it's because of Shen Qiuyu...... If you think about it deeper, aren't you the culprit?

Gu Xinian didn't have to think about it. also knew what the prince was thinking in his heart, and smiled indifferently: "Don't hide it from my cousin, in fact, I already have someone I like." ”

The prince only felt his temples pounding suddenly, and his heart unconsciously lifted: "Oh? Who is it? ”

Gu Xinian refused to say it explicitly, only smiled: "You don't know this woman, and you don't know if you say it." However, she is still young, and it is not too late to marry again next year. ”

The prince breathed a deep sigh of relief. No matter who it is, as long as it's not Shen Qiuyu!

"Since you like her, just talk to your grandfather." The prince's tone suddenly relaxed: "Grandfather, they have been looking forward to you getting married as soon as possible, so they won't disagree!" ”

Gu Xinian deliberately sighed: "If I tell the truth, they will definitely not nod in agreement." This woman's family is not high, and she is a concubine. ”

That's a real problem. The prince also began to feel tricky, and was about to say something, when he heard Gu Xinian say sincerely: "Cousin, you are a person of temperament. You should always know what it's like to like a woman. If I miss her, I probably won't be married again in my life. ”

The prince was weak and frightened when he heard this, and immediately responded: "Okay, I'll help you intercede later." "Gu Xinian should get married soon, if he really doesn't get married for the rest of his life, he will definitely not be at ease.

A smile flashed in Gu Xinian's eyes: "Thank you, cousin." "Everything he expected was expected, and the following was a really tough battle. If you want to convince Queen Gu, it's not that simple.

Gu Xinian followed the prince into the Fengyi Palace, and the palace maid quickly went to report to Queen Gu.

Empress Gu was in the side hall, and when she heard this, she smiled and said, "Hurry up and let the prince and Gu Shilang come in." After a while, the crown prince, accompanied by Gu Xinian, entered in high spirits, and the two saluted respectfully.

Queen Gu pursed her lips and smiled, very kind and easy-going: "Don't be so polite, sit down and talk quickly." Then he instructed the female officials around him to go to the imperial dining room: "Let the imperial dining room make some good dishes and send them, and today the palace will leave the prince and Gu Shilang to eat in the Fengyi Palace." ”

After the palace maids served refreshments, Queen Gu asked the prince with a smile. Family matters are just a few words, and more are asked about things in the court.

According to the rules, the concubines in the palace are not allowed to interfere in the government. Even the queen is no exception. But the harem has always been closely related to things in the court. Queen Gu didn't ask on her face, but in fact, she didn't interfere in private.

It is an indisputable fact that the crown prince's talent is mediocre, but he can be a mother, even if he knows this, he has to do his best to plan for his son. The royal struggle has always been cruel, and if it is lost, all the scenery will be lost. Maybe even your life won't be saved. Therefore, Empress Gu has been trying her best to attract forces from all sides for the crown prince. It's a pity that the emperor has always favored the three princes with outstanding talents, and the courtiers are all good at figuring out the sacred heart, and no one is willing to bet lightly. Moreover, the prince has a soft temperament and mediocre talents, and most of the people know it, but there are more people who support the third prince.

Empress Gu was secretly anxious, but she was helpless. The people's hearts are expected by all, and if they fall behind in this regard, it is really not good, and it is difficult to redeem it. One is not good, but if you lose the Sacred Heart, it will be even worse. Therefore, Queen Gu did not dare to act rashly.

However, since Gu Xinian became a household servant last year, his glory is difficult to hide, and he secretly plots for the prince, but he has recovered a lot of disadvantages.

After Empress Gu heard about what happened in the court today, she couldn't be happier. smiled and praised: "Xi Nian, you did a good job." ”

Gu Xinian responded modestly: "My nephew doesn't dare to take credit." Actually, this qiē is all due to my cousin. If he hadn't quietly reminded me that Qian Shilang had a move, I wouldn't have come up with a countermeasure so quickly. ”

Such an intimate and easy-going title is also insisted on by Queen Gu. Gu Xinian refused a few times at first, but then he was disrespectful.

Queen Gu wanted to use family affection to envelop him, so he simply pushed the boat along the river, and what he was going to say next could also be smoother.

After a few words of gossip, Gu Xinian brought up the things that he had been planning in his heart for a long time: "Auntie, His Royal Highness the Third Prince has always wanted to start with Tian Fu and make some achievements. Today in the court, what Qian Shilang said was actually just throwing stones to ask for directions, testing the emperor's reaction. If I'm right, the three princes should still make some moves next. ”

Naturally, he was very clear about the subsequent development of things. Because in the previous life, it was he who really planned this for the third prince. At this time, Tian Fu did have all kinds of drawbacks, and in his previous life, after painstakingly studying Tian Fu's policies, he proposed ways to improve them. Facts have proved that these measures are practical and feasible, and they have also reduced the burden on the peasants who rent land in disguise. Agriculture is the foundation of the imperial court, and the collection of land endowments is also a major source of income for the imperial court, and its importance is self-evident.

Because of Tian Fu's innovative measures, the three princes won a beautiful battle in the court. also completely compared the mediocre and incompetent prince.

It's a pity that the three princes in this life can't have such good luck anymore. Even if the third prince has good ideas, the clumsy and impulsive Qian Shilang will not be successful.

When Empress Gu heard these words, she really perked up, and immediately asked, "Then what should I do next?" ”

Gu Xinian smiled faintly, and suddenly opened the topic: "Auntie, my nephew came here with a cheeky face, but he actually had something to ask for. I hope my aunt can agree. ”
