Gu Xinian's expectations were not bad at all.

Soon, trouble ensued. First of all, there were suddenly a lot more people who came to receive money and money every day with approval slips, and the household department had to delay for a few days according to the custom, and then some people began to play and impeach the household department for procrastination. The first unlucky one is, of course, the head of the household, who was already old, and fell ill directly by such a fit of anger. Another Qian waiter also "coincidentally" sprained his horse while riding, and all the affairs of the household department naturally fell on Gu Xinian's head.

Then, the impeachment of Tobe Gu Shilang gradually increased. Among them, there are many heavyweight ministers, and there are many bitter and mean officials. As if they wanted to vent all the anger and resentment that had gathered in recent months, the rhetoric on the song became more and more intense. At first, it was to impeach Gu Shilang for doing things unfavorably, but later it gradually evolved into "Gu Shilang deceived his superiors and concealed his subordinates, took charge of the household, manipulated finances, and secretly formed a party for personal gain" and so on.

Gu Xinian quickly became the focus of attention inside and outside the court, and many people paid attention to his every move.

On the cusp of such a storm, Gu Xinian seemed to be a little unable to withstand the pressure, and went on several self-defense twists and turns in a row. Then, according to the practice of this dynasty, after being impeached, he honestly stayed in the palace to introspect, waiting for the emperor's dictation or holy decree.

Some people applauded such a result, while others were secretly anxious. More often than not, they have a wait-and-see attitude. Who is Gu Xinian? That is Queen Gu's own nephew, His Royal Highness the Prince's cousin, and an important minister in charge of the money and food of the household department. What will the emperor do with this matter?

The Dingguo Mansion is also turbulent, but it is not calm. Dingguo Gong Gu Yan and his father and son deeply felt that this matter was tricky, and each told Gu Xinian to introspect himself in the mansion with peace of mind, and there must be no mistakes in his steps. Gu Shengnian and Gu Yongnian's official positions are not high. It can hardly help in this kind of thing, at most it is a verbal expression of concern.

Gu Xinian was in front of them. Table xiàn out of a heavy and depressed mood. But when he returned to Izumo Xuan and saw Ye Qinglan, he immediately put aside all these pickled things.

Stealing half a day's leisure. It's rare to have such a righteous and bright opportunity to accompany his wife in the house, who still has the heart to care about the bunch of tedious things in the household department?

Ye Qinglan has been pregnant for more than five months. It was hot, and I wore only a thin dress. Although the dress is loose, it can't cover the bulging abdomen.

Since the child in the womb had fetal movement, Gu Xinian had more fun. Touch it at least ten or twenty times a day. If it happens that the child moves, the feeling of pride and self-satisfaction is really indescribable, and it is probably more exciting than when he won the top prize.

"The kid is moving again!" Gu Xinian was as amazed as if he had discovered a new world. Gently and carefully, he put his hand on Ye Qinglan's bulging belly.

Ye Qinglan smiled dumbly: "It's not the first time, what are you doing so excited." ”

Speaking of this, Gu Xinian was quite dissatisfied: "This stinky boy." Usually always messing around with you. As soon as I touched it, he wouldn't move. I didn't take my father seriously at all. After he is born, the first thing to do is to teach him a good lesson! ”

Ye Qinglan was amused, and deliberately revealed his bottom: "Okay, good, this is what you said." Don't say you can't do it. When the child is born, I see that you are reluctant to do it. ”

Gu Xinian deliberately put on a vicious expression: "You just wait and see!" ”

After the husband and wife laughed, Gu Xinian naturally took Ye Qinglan into his arms: "Your appetite seems to have improved in the past two days, and you vomit less." ”

Ye Qinglan smiled and hummed, and then sighed: "I only now know that pregnancy is such a tiring thing. ”

Count the days. She has been more than two months since her morning sickness began on the first day. I vomit every day and I have no appetite, and I have to force myself to eat. There are also all kinds of supplements for the body, not to mention how greasy it is to eat. But you can't eat it. You have to ensure the nutrition of the child in your belly!

That's all, but the inconveniences brought by pregnancy make her even more uncomfortable.

Food, clothing, housing and transportation suddenly became more exquisite, and there were strict rules for walking, standing, sitting and lying. Mrs. Zheng didn't worry about a few maids around her to take care of her. He specially sent the experienced Huang's mother over to take care of her daily chores. A piece of kindness from my mother-in-law. Of course, there is no excuse. As a result, Ye Qinglan lived a life like a pig who eats, drinks and sleeps more every day

Such a life is not bad. But no matter what you do, being controlled by someone is really not a wonderful taste.

After becoming pregnant, even Ye Qinglan herself was very sensitive to the fact that her feelings were prone to ups and downs. I am often unhappy because of a little thing. The maids and women around her didn't say anything, and even Gu Xinian tried her best to put away all her temper, and she was extremely gentle and considerate in front of her.

Ye Qinglan lay in Gu Xinian's arms, adjusted to the most comfortable position, and then was a little aggrieved: "Look, my face is starting to have spots." ”

Gu Xinian looked down seriously for a moment, and then retorted righteously: "Your face is white and beautiful, how can there be any spots." ”

"Why didn't you !!?" Ye Qinglan tilted her head slightly, and her slender fingers pointed at her cheeks: "Look, there are obviously spots here." I'm sure I'm going to grow more and more in the future, and I'm going to be ugly! ”

Gu Xinian immediately coaxed: "This little spot can't be seen if you don't look carefully." When I have a baby, I will be gone. Even if there is a little bit, in my eyes, you are the most beautiful woman in the world. ”

It's easy to say, but I finally coaxed the sentimental and changeable pregnant woman to have a smile.

Counting it, Gu Xinian has been in the house for five or six days after the setback. Everyone in the house was secretly anxious, but Gu Xinian himself looked elegant and leisurely, and he was not anxious at all.

Ye Qinglan couldn't help but ask: "If you stay in the mansion every day, aren't you afraid that the emperor will punish you?" ”

Gu Xinian tugged at the corners of his lips and replied leisurely: "You can rest assured, in three days at most, the emperor will issue an edict to let me go to court again." ”

Ye Qinglan subconsciously pondered. Since Gu Xinian said it so surely, of course he relied on it

"Why are you thinking nonsense again?" Gu Xinian's somewhat helpless voice sounded: "If you want to know anything, just ask me." I promise to know everything, and I will say everything. ”

As soon as the words fell, I heard Ye Qinglan ask: "You are so sure, is there someone who will intercede with the emperor on your behalf?" ”

Gu Xinian's eyes flashed, and he replied meaningfully: "It is inconvenient for the queen mother to come forward, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will definitely go to intercede for me in person." ”

One by one, the impeachment recitals were piled up on the table in the imperial study, and the emperor looked at it carefully, looking unpredictable.

The eunuch who served the pen and ink stood aside with his head down, but his ears were erect, and the corners of his eyes were paying attention to the emperor's every move.

The eunuch outside the imperial study trotted in all the way in to report: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asks to see you." ”

The emperor said lightly: "Let him come in!" ”

After the prince came in, he respectfully greeted the emperor. The two are not only father and son, but also monarchs and ministers. When you meet, you can't miss the number of courtesies. Thinking about his intentions again, the prince's attitude became more and more respectful: "My father has every opportunity, and my sons and daughters took the liberty to come without being called, disturbing my father's directors, and I hope my father will not blame." ”

Since the emperor made up his mind, he has been much kinder to the prince than before: "There are no outsiders here, just you and me." You don't have to be so restrained when you speak. It just so happens that I want you to see these twists and turns, so you can come and watch them. ”

Obviously, the emperor did not seem to be angry.

The prince was secretly happy in his heart, and walked over calmly, looking through the twists and turns. In fact, even if he didn't read it, he knew what was written in these memorabilia. In the past month or so, the impeachment of Gu Xinian has not stopped. Clear-eyed people knew at a glance that the three princes' faction did not have the courage or ability to shake the prince again, so they focused their attacks on the most powerful cronies around the prince.

If Gu Xinian is really impeached, it will definitely be a heavy blow to the crown prince. Let's not talk about the private feelings, even inside and outside the court, the prince can't do without the shrewd and powerful Gu Xinian. Therefore, when the prince noticed that the situation was not good, he was even more angry and anxious than Gu Xinian himself.

The emperor's reaction is really puzzling. No matter how many impeachment twists and turns, he never got it. All the twists and turns were presented to the sea.

The more this is the case, the more crazy the offensive of the three princes and the party becomes. Although the emperor did not cure Gu Xinian's crimes, he did not stop them from impeachment, right? That being the case, it means that they still have hope for success!

So, the folds quickly piled up on the desk in the imperial study. Gu Xinian should also be proud of this. was impeached by so many people, but he is still unharmed.

While flipping through the folds, the prince quickly calculated how to open his mouth to intercede in his heart, and his face naturally revealed some subtle expressions.

The emperor had been paying attention to the change in his expression, and at this time, he suddenly asked idly: "These twists and turns are all impeached by Gu Shilang, do you think the words on these folds are true?" ”

"Back to my father, what Gu Shilang has done in the past few years as the head of the household department, everyone has seen it." The prince carefully considered his words: "Erchen feels that there are many untruthful and exaggerated parts in these twists and turns. ”

The emperor sighed, and his voice was flat: "Then tell me, which ones are not true, and which ones are exaggerated?" ”

From the voice, I definitely can't hear how the emperor is feeling at the moment.

The crown prince also knows the emperor's temperament very well, and knows that when he asks this, he is giving him the opportunity to argue and intercede for Gu Xinian, so he immediately cheered up: "Thank you father, the emperor there, and the minister will have the courage to express what he thinks in his heart."
