019: Cover the coffin
Xue Jin laughed for a while, but he was not angry, and other colleagues also came over to talk to Xue Jin when they saw him.
Xue Jin saw Gu Che frowning slightly, knowing that Gu Che didn't like to disturb, he smiled and took the person away.
It was probably because Gu Che didn't like outsiders these days, so the man saw that Gu Che didn't look at him at all, so he sighed in his heart that Xue Jin was really understanding and followed Xue Jin to the side.
When the night was finally over, Gu Che was pushed next to Old Madam Gu's coffin, the weather was still cold, so there was no strange smell.
Gu Che leaned to the side and thought for a while before he spoke, "Country, family." β
Now the mountains and rivers are broken, and the princes are divided and support their own troops. Although this is still the emperor's world, how many people in this world listen to him?
Gu Che looked at the stiff face of the old lady Gu in the coffin, now that the country is like this, what about the family.
The family has always valued the family more than the country, and the Gu family survived the troubled times at the earliest and experienced the change of dynasties.
Gu Che tapped the coffin twice with his fingers, Yunzhou was originally far away from Kyoto. So although there have been several coups d'Γ©tat, the Gu family is becoming more and more prosperous, but who would have thought that this would be the case when she Gu Che was in this situation.
Gu Che took a deep breath, now that Ye Yi had killed Shen Xi and Shen Houye, his ambition could be said to have completely leaked. Let him stop now, I'm afraid that Shen Xi promised that the other princes from all walks of life would not agree. Now, even if the reaction is slow, all the princes have understood the benefits of holding the Son of Heaven hostage, Ye Yi is now a very powerful force, but it is only powerful, and it is not a monopoly. If there is no Son of Heaven, then the difference between the Ye family and the other princes is probably not big.
Therefore, the Ye family now needs people, and they need to monitor Gu Che well.
If the Gu family reversed at this time, it would be like a dagger inserted into the heart of Ye Yi's forces.
Ye Yi needs the support of the Yunzhou family, so he can't move the Ye family.
Gu Che lay quietly on the low couch, his fingers knocking on the plank of the coffin.
Mother, even without your arrangement, I will do my best to defend the Gu family in troubled times.
The Gu family is not only me, only the eldest brother, and there are 3,000 side branches.
Even if a prince like Shen Xi was killed by Ye Yi, if the Gu family, who had no military power in such a troubled era, lost the protection of the family, what would be the fate?
Gu Che closed his eyes, once the person made a decision, then the whole person relaxed. Gu Che, who hadn't been able to sleep well for several nights, lay down next to Old Madam Gu's body and fell asleep like this, until Gu Che really fell asleep, and Hui Ge, who was standing quietly on the side, came over and covered Gu Che with a blanket.
As soon as she stood up after covering it, she saw Gu Chun behind her, Gu Chun smiled at her, and then beckoned.
Hui Ge looked at it for a moment, then walked out and saluted Gu Chun, "Uncle." β
"Hmm." Gu Chun nodded, "Ah Che is asleep?" β
"Yes." Huige responded.
"Then you go and rest first." Gu Chun opened his mouth, as if he was afraid that Huige would be worried and spoke again, "The coffin will be officially covered at dawn tomorrow, you are your wife A Che, and you will have to do it, rest early." β
"Yes." Hui Ge made another salute before withdrawing.
When he arrived in the courtyard, the servants hurriedly welcomed Hui Ge in, and Hui Ge did not have the habit of retiring the servants and maids, so he had to sleep with his clothes. However, as soon as he lay down, Ling'er sent the others out.
Ling'er was a personal maid brought by Huige, and she grew up with Huige since she was a child, so she retired from the servants and retreated directly from the others.
Hui Ge looked at Ling'er, "Something?" β
"Girl." Ling Er's voice was a little aggrieved, "You have been married for so long, why don't Gu Ergongzi treat you two well, didn't you say that Gu Ergongzi is nothing when you got married, how can this be." β
"Shut up." Hui Ge opened her mouth, "You are going to call me Madame now." β
Ling Er was a little aggrieved, "I just can't look past it, you have liked Gu Gongzi for so long, but why did he treat you like this, where is the girl who talks about words and articles not worthy of him." β
Huige looked at Ling'er and didn't speak, and it took a while for Ling'er to cry, "Girl, I said the wrong thing." β
Hui Ge retracted her eyes, "In this life, I am the wife of Gu Ergongzi, as a personal maid, you should know what to say and what not to say, if I hear you say nonsense next time, don't mention it again." β
"Yes." Ling'er went down aggrieved, and Huige smiled, "Remember to wipe your face when you go out, otherwise the maids below will think that I have bullied you, and let my husband feel that I can't even tolerate my own maids, and I will end up with a bad reputation." β
"Yes." Ling Er immediately stopped her voice, and then wiped her face with her sleeve before retreating.
Hui Ge sighed when she saw Ling'er's retreating figure, how could she not know Gu Che's current body. I'm afraid that apart from her, Gu Che will not marry another concubine, let alone a maid, it may not be long before her notoriety as a jealous woman will spread, but I don't know how long Gu Che's illness can be hidden.
Gu Che slept peacefully this night, but Huige had insomnia.
After waking up on the second day, Hui Ge was busy covering the coffin of Old Madam Gu with Gu Chun, and Gu Che was also helped to the side of the chair. When he saw Hui Ge, Gu Che greeted lightly, "Madam." β
Hui Ge also responded, and Gu Che then turned his head to talk to Gu Chun.
Gu Che didn't have too many thoughts about Hui Ge, after all, Hui Ge was just a poor person like him, who was sacrificed by his family in order to keep more people alive.
Or that Hui Ge is more pitiful than him, so Gu Che doesn't know how to face Hui Ge, so he has no choice but to do this, if Hui Ge doesn't do anything out of the ordinary in this life, then the inside of the Gu family will be handed over to her.
Gu Che smiled for a moment, and then spoke to Gu Chun, "Somehow, it's probably because my mother misses me, and I slept very well next to her last night, without a dream." β
Gu Chun smiled dotingly, "Old Madam Gu must love you, otherwise how could she find you such a good wife for your younger brother and sister." β
"Hmm." Gu Che responded, and turned his head to smile at Hui Ge.
