Chapter 68 Consultants
Duan Lan was sent to the queen's camp, and it happened that the queen was with all the ladies that day, and her embarrassed appearance was clearly seen by everyone.
And the person who sent him also told everyone on the field what she said and did.
Even if the queen has the heart to protect it, she can't do anything about it. Duan Lan's reputation can be regarded as completely ruined.
After the ladies were gone, Shuyi lay on the queen's side and cried and said, "The queen motherβ"
Although the queen felt that she was too impulsive and reckless, she was her own daughter, and she couldn't bear to blame her: "Okay, today's incident is that you are reckless, and you can't do it again in the future." β
The queen was also puzzled like others, where did this Lin Jingshu provoke Shuyi.
Her own daughter, she knows it herself. is indeed arrogant and willful, but it will not attack a person who has no grievances.
"You tell the queen mother, why are you doing such a thing? Where did Miss Lin offend you? β
Shuyi was a little flustered when she saw the queen asking.
looked evasive, not daring to say the idea in her heart, after all, she also knew that the queen mother would not agree.
casually made up a reason: "Also, it's nothing." The queen mother, the sons are also wronged, the seventh brother, the seventh brother actually stood on the side of outsiders and came to humiliate me, you have to be the master for me! β
The queen saw that Shuyi was still dead and refused to admit it: "If you really want the queen mother to make the decision for you, tell the truth as it is, otherwise, how can the queen mother help you?" β
The queen's henchman on the side also persuaded: "Princess, you better tell the matter quickly, the queen is your mother, will it still harm you!" β
In the end, Shuyi still told the story.
The queen was helpless, her daughter was really confused: "You." So the consultant is that good? His father is just a fourth-rank official. You are the princess of the Great Jin, your husband must be a good talent of the Great Jin, and his identity is also noble, which is comparable to the son of a four-grade official. β
Shuyi didn't follow: "Queen Mother, I want to marry Brother Gu, I don't want anyone else." Brother Gu is handsome and talented, and he will definitely make a big difference in the future. I don't care, I don't care. In her heart, no one else can compare.
The queen still said bitterly: "There are many men in the Great Jin Dynasty, and among the wealthy soldiers, there is no one more handsome and talented than him?" I heard that he has not been in good health since he was a child, and if there is anything in the future with such a person, what should you do? β
Shuyi was facing her brother Gu Zaising, and she couldn't listen to the queen's persuasion at all, so she only felt that the queen was also blocking her.
Sadly, he turned his head to the side.
The queen was also sad when she saw it, but it was impossible for her daughter to watch her fall like this: "Even if you like him, he has already made a marriage with Lin Jingshu, is it difficult for you to marry and be a concubine?" β
Shuyi cramped: "Of course it's impossible! β
"Since it's impossible, you just accept this thought, and don't trouble Miss Lin in the future. Although his father is a new Hubu Shangshu, your father also values him now, so-"
"Queen Mother, even if they are really married, so what? Left and right, this is just a verbal appointment between Mrs. Gu and Mrs. Lin, and it can't be counted, as long as the queen mother speaks, does Mrs. Gu dare not accept it? β
The queen said: "This is impossible, Shuyi, if it is really just a verbal appointment, how can there be rumors, maybe the two families have already made up their minds." Why should you? β
"But but, I really like Brother Gu, why can he Lin Jingshu marry Brother Gu, Brother Gu is so good, she is not worthy of it at all. Queen Mother, you should fulfill the wishes of your sons, from childhood to adulthood, you are the most loving of your sons, don't you want to fulfill your sons' wishes? There were tears in his eyes, and he whimpered a little when he said it.
In normal times, the queen had already promised her. But this matter is related to her lifelong happiness, and she can't help it.
But now she also knows that no matter what she says, Shuyi can't listen to it, and it may backfire.
"Shuyi, if you really like the consultant line, then the queen mother will find a day to inquire about you, and by the way, visit the Gu family, is that good?"
Shuyi's eyes were full of smiles: "Thank you to the queen mother, I know that the queen mother is the best for me, and the queen mother loves Shuyi the most." β
The queen looked at Shuyi dotingly, Shuyi was her only daughter who grew up safely, and she naturally loved her in every way.
However, Shuyi was tempted: "Then, where is the seventh brother?" β
The queen became serious at this time: "You seventh brother, don't worry about it." Although he has not entered the court for a short time, your father has always spoiled him, you must not be disrespectful to him, you know? β
Shuyi said sullenly: "Got it." β
The queen knew that she was bitter in her heart, and she herself was helpless, who let her not give birth to a son, if she didn't have the position of queen, would she still be able to survive in this palace.
"Although your seventh brother looks cold, he is not an unreasonable person. If you don't want to see him, try to avoid him. "It's okay to hide, or if there's a conflict.
But Shuyi is also proud, let her hide from a person, how is that possible.
"I hate Brother Seventh the most, obviously the other brothers are very good to me, but he stands on the side of outsiders and bullies me." Anyway, Shuyi still couldn't forget that Song Ming was standing on Lin Jingshu's side, and asked her vigorously.
The queen said solemnly: "Shuyi, didn't you hear my words? If you don't like your seventh brother, try to avoid him. Also, your other brothers may not be as good as your seventh brother, who knows what medicine they sell in their gourds. β
The queen is worthy of rolling in the harem for many years, if other princes are close to Shuyi, there is no purpose for her to be good, and the queen will not be able to beat her to death.
She was afraid that Shuyi would be drawn into the battle for the heir by them.
She doesn't have a son, so no matter who ascends to the throne, she has to call her the queen mother, but in her heart, she still doesn't want those princes to ascend the throne, however, this is not something she can decide......
Shuyi didn't care, she thought who was good to her, she could still tell, maybe other brothers were good to her, including that she was the daughter of the queen mother, it didn't hurt.
In short, she is in the eyes.
After Shuyi talked to the queen for a while, she said that she was going back to rest, and the queen naturally did not stop her.
Mama persuaded softly on the side: "The queen mother is also relaxed, Princess Shuyi has grown up, and she will consider doing things." Although these words were reassuring and well-intentioned, they were not convincing.
After all, that kind of thing just happened.
The queen instructed her: "You will take the silk that the emperor gave me a few days ago, and take a horse and send it to Lan Yatou." Kind of appease her. In addition, I also told my brother about it, and my brother would know the severity. β
After all, this thing is that she is too reckless. However, Lan Yatou can be regarded as for Shuyi, if she doesn't show it, it's not good, but it's not good to make a big show.
"Yes. Then Mrs. Gu's sideβ"
The queen said casually: "That's just an excuse to appease Shuyi." At the last dinner, I had already heard it from Mrs. Gu's words. She is still quite satisfied with Miss Lin. If I open my mouth, won't I beat the mandarin ducks? Moreover, I look at the consultant as average, and his health is not good, and he has no fame. How can you be worthy of my Shuyi? Besides, what I just said wasn't all about coaxing Shuyi. The emperor has also sent a lot of things to Hubu Shangshu recently, with the intention of reusing him, if you offend him for this matter, it is not a wise move. When Shuyi turned around and asked, she told her that the consultant had already taken a fan. Children, what kind of love, when they get married, they must be with each other for a lifetime, and suitability is the most important thing. β
Mama chimed in: "Yes." It's just that the old slave is really tempted by that Young Master Gu when he is afraid of the princess, in case it hurts the feelings of the two of you because of this......"
"I'm her mother, and she can't hate me. After all, I won't hurt her, I will only do her good. When I go back, I will put Shuyi's family affairs on the agenda, and I don't believe it, can't this Gyeonggi find a young talent who wins the consulting business? When the time comes, Shuyi will be tempted when she takes a look. β
Since the queen has said this, Mama will not refute it. But she was still a little worried, looking at Princess Shuyi's expression when she had just mentioned Young Master Gu, the infatuation in her eyes was not like a whim. I'm afraid that this matter may not be as simple as the queen mother thinks.
But the queen was still curious: "You say, this Shuyi is also in the palace on weekdays, and she hasn't gone anywhere, why does she have a soft spot for that consultant's market?" β
Without the permission of Emperor Chengwu, the princesses in the palace are not allowed to leave the palace casually. This consultant has no fame, so naturally it is impossible to enter and leave the palace casually.
Mama thought for a long time and said: "This Gu Gongzi has been in poor health all the year round, and he hasn't even been out of the gate of Gu Mansion much, the old slave thinks, maybe he saw it at the birthday banquet in the palace last year." β
This Princess Shuyi didn't say when she acted for the advisor, and there was nothing abnormal on weekdays, if there was no today's incident, the queen really didn't know that there was such a person hidden in her heart.
Thinking of this, the queen felt that she had to pay more attention to Shuyi's affairs: "Later, bring the maid who is waiting for Shuyi, and I will interrogate it well." β
"Yes."
It's good to find out as soon as possible, so as to avoid causing even more chaos in the future, and when the time comes, it may not be as good as it is today.
Suddenly, I remembered something: "By the way, you also sent my set of noodles to Miss Lin, which can be regarded as suppressing her shock." "After all, there's nothing wrong with her.
"Also, didn't Shuyi just say who King Jing saved?"
"Back to the queen mother, this King Jing seems to have saved Miss Xin, the girl who cured the plague."
The queen nodded, some time ago in the palace, she also saw it, a very sharp little girl, and it really didn't match her rumors.
"Over there, you can send someone to greet you too." This greeting contains Emperor Chengwu's love for her.
The queen and Emperor Chengwu have been married for many years, and naturally they also know some of his thoughts, after all, they are heroes, and if there is no reward, they should also behave like it, so as not to leave a handle for others. I heard that this Xin girl has a good reputation among the people......
