As the saying goes, Cao Cao Cao arrived, and the brother-in-law of the Marquis of Naning had just been mentioned that night, and this person arrived in Kyoto two days later.

Ning Guohou's wife is the daughter of Tang Ding, Marquis of Xinyang, although Tang Ye is a concubine, he has been raised by his mother-in-law since birth, and his biological mother died after giving birth to him.

Tang Ye is Tang Ding's only son, and he is a child fostered under his mother's name, and his natural identity has changed from concubine to concubine. And his reputation in the Xinyang area can be described as a household name.

On this day, Zhan Tianpeng was strolling on the street with Gu Yunxin, when he suddenly heard a rapid sound of horses' hooves galloping towards this side.

The man was wearing a royal blue suit embroidered with cloud sea patterns, cloud boots with the same pattern on his feet, and his long hair was inlaid with blue gems, with a pair of deep peach blossom eyes.

The horses galloped past, Zhan Tianpeng protected Gu Yunxin behind him, the man's eyes swept over Zhan Tianpeng and Gu Yunxin on the side of the road, and a smug smile rose on the corner of his mouth.

"Who is this man, how can he ride a horse through the street like this?" Xiangzhi said indignantly.

"He is Ning Guohou's brother-in-law, Tang Ye." Zhan Tianpeng pouted.

It seems that Zhan Tianpeng and this Tang Ye used to be a little unpleasant. No matter what happened to this Tang Ye, as long as he didn't hinder his side from having nothing to do, if he did, he would kill him.

"Third son, shouldn't this Tang Ye be in Xinyang? Why did you come to Kyoto in a good manner, our princess has just become pregnant, shouldn't it be the helper found by the Marquis of Ningguo's mansion. Xiangzhi said worriedly.

Originally, she thought that Xiao Ziming was also a good match, but she didn't want to be such an unbearable guy. Fortunately, there is a prince by the princess's side now, otherwise Xiao Ziming would definitely be entangled.

Tang Ye rode all the way to the Ningguo Marquis's Mansion, and the little guy guarding the door naturally knew him, so he happily led Tang Ye into the mansion.

Mrs. Ning Guohou sat on the main seat and glanced at Tang Ye who was sitting at the bottom of the seat, although this younger brother grew up with her since she was a child, and nominally speaking, she was the sister-in-law of Xinyang Hou, but she didn't look down on Tang Ye who crawled out of this aunt's belly at all.

"My brother came so fast, I've worked hard all the way, let's go take a bath and rest, the Hou Ye is back at lunch, let's eat together." Mrs. Ning Guohou said with a decent smile on her face.

"Yes, big sister, I'll go and rest first." Tang Ye saluted respectfully and walked out of the side hall.

Xu Lang, the entourage who followed Tang Ye, was very dissatisfied and said: "Master, what kind of majesty is this eldest lady, you are also her own brother, how can I treat you like this." ”

"Originally, I was a concubine, and it was my mother who fostered me in her name in order to consolidate her status, and it was normal for her to look down on me." Tang Ye said lightly.

What did it mean to show him his face, when he was a child, what kind of life he lived, he still remembered it, the catkins he wore in winter were sandwiched with clothes made of broken cotton, which were not as good as those worn by his subordinates, and the leftovers that their mother and daughter ate were also eaten, and now the old pious woman knew that she was old and knew that she would have to rely on herself in the future, so she would give herself a good look.

Now, his sister also has a request for herself, and she even puts on a high-minded appearance, and she doesn't know who she is looking at.

When passing through the garden, he happened to meet Gu Peiqing enjoying the flowers in the yard, Tang Ye had not seen Gu Peiqing, but just looked at the other party's side face and the woman he saw on the street.

Gu Peiqing found that someone was there

looked at himself, and then scolded sharply: "Bold thief, you dare to peek at this side of the concubine, why don't you get out of this side of the concubine quickly." ”

Side concubine? Could it be Xiao Ziming's side concubine? The appearance is a little coquettish, but this temperament is inevitably too domineering, but this is very compatible with the identity of the Xiao family.

"You are bold, a little side concubine, you dare to scold my son-in-law, my son-in-law is the son of the Marquis of Xinyang." Xu Lang said angrily.

If Mrs. Ning Guohou gave their son-in-law a look, it would be fine, and now a little side concubine is so rampant.

Hearing this, Gu Peiqing was slightly stunned, the man in front of him turned out to be the younger brother of his mother-in-law. But so what, it's just a concubine raised by his mother's side, is it difficult for her to give him face?

"It turned out to be my mother-in-law's younger brother, and I blamed me for being clumsy, and I didn't even know it." Gu Peiqing said with a light smile.

If this brother is very important to his mother-in-law, it is absolutely impossible not to let Xiao Ziming get married.

"It's normal that you know this son, after all, you don't need to invite too many guests to take a side concubine." After finishing speaking, Tang Ye walked away.

Hearing that Tang Ye didn't take himself seriously, Gu Pei rubbed the flowers in his hands to pieces.

"Concubine Fang, don't be angry, this son of Xinyang Hou is just a guest, you are the future mistress of this backyard." Chunchan said flatteringly.

"Hmph, you're right, I'll be the mistress of this backyard in the future, and I won't be like a concubine who can't get on the stage." Gu Peiqing said proudly.

But when she said this, she forgot that she was a concubine herself. Gu Peiqing's conversation between the master and servant happened to be heard by the Yao family in a corner of the garden.

Now, the most favored person in this backyard is the Yao family, but she also knows that her status is low, and her mother's family has no competent candidates, otherwise, she can also get a side concubine.

"Master, this Concubine Gu is really bold, there is also the princess, she is like the mistress of this backyard, this entire Hou Mansion, who doesn't know, the master is the person on the tip of the prince's heart." The maid Cuizhu said flatteringly.

"That's, what about me, I just don't have a good background, otherwise, what are the concubines of Princess Beiliang and Taifu, I don't take them seriously." Yao gently stroked the broken hair on his sideburns.

"So what are we going to do? Now that you have just had a body, in case the princess and the side concubine make a move, you can ......" Cuizhu said with some concern.

After serving in the house for so many years, Cuizhu deeply understands that the struggle in this backyard is fierce, and those who have children are naturally valued by their mothers, and those who have no heirs will be abandoned.

Now, the prince has no children, if the belly she serves is angry and gives birth to a son, even if it is a concubine, it is the eldest son, and the identity does not have to be a grandson.

"Then what else can I do, avoid them, and be extra careful in eating." Yao said lightly.

After all, with her identity and family background, she must not be able to fight against the side concubine and the main concubine.

"Well, by the way, the slave went out to buy you osmanthus cake today, and I heard that the people on the street said that Princess Rui was also pregnant. If you let the side concubine know the news......"

"If she knows the news, she will definitely go crazy with anger, maybe she will try her best to get rid of Princess Rui's child, and when the East Window incident happens, Gu Peiqing will be in a catastrophe, after all, it is Princess Rui, she is the daughter-in-law of the royal family, and this plot to kill the royal heir is to exterminate the nine clans

Target. Yao Shi hooked his lips slightly and said coldly.

"But master, no matter what she says, she is also a side concubine, in case this implicates the Hou Mansion......" Cuizhu hesitated.

"Afraid of what? When the time comes, the Gu family will remove her from her name for preservation, and the prince will also divorce her. I'll have to figure out a way, or she'll have to deal with me. ”

At that time, Gu Yunxin was sitting in the courtyard eating snacks, fortunately, there was an antiemetic medicine prescribed to her by Yun Zheng, otherwise she really didn't have any appetite.

"Master, the slaves are back." Hongxuan and Hongling smiled lightly.

"Oh, you two are back, and I'm really not used to you not being here these days." Xiangzhi smiled and grabbed Hongxuan and Hongling's hands.

"Didn't we rush back when we were done? Master, this is some seaside specialty, all of them are air-dried, the slaves and maids heard that the master is pregnant, so they brought some back to the master, the master quickly tasted it, it is not to taste. Hongxuan smiled lightly.

As soon as the bag was opened, a fishy smell of seafood came to her nose, Gu Yunxin couldn't help retching a few times, if it was usual, what would this little fish do, but it was her favorite snack, but now that she was pregnant with a child, it seemed that some food didn't look so fragrant.

"Master, it doesn't matter, the slave will check your pulse first." Hongling stepped forward and put her finger on Gu Yunxin's wrist and said.

After a while, he nodded with satisfaction, "Everything is fine with the master, and the little prince is very healthy." ”

"It's only been more than a month, and you can see men and women? I asked Yun Zheng, and he said that he couldn't see it. Gu Yunxin chuckled.

"It's true that I can't see it, the slave and maid feel that she is a little prince, what about the master? Does the master want to be a little prince or a little princess? Hongling quipped with a smile.

"I hope it's a boy, as mighty as the prince, and I'll be satisfied." After saying that, Gu Yunxin lowered his head shyly.

It's not that Gu Yunxin doesn't like her daughter, but she just thinks that if her daughter gets married in the future, she will be very worried, not all women are as lucky as she is to meet a man who has a soft spot for her.

If it is a boy, she will teach her son what it means to have a soft spot, so that he can also live forever with his beloved.

"Really? The lady would love to be a boy? The voice of King Rui rang out at the door.

"What? The prince doesn't like boys? Gu Yunxin raised his eyebrows slightly, and said for a long time.

Don't these men say all day long that this is unfilial piety? If the wife can't give birth to a son-in-law, the husband will have an excuse to take a concubine. Isn't it, this stinky man has such a mind?

"It's not that I don't like it, if it's a man, let him take responsibility for the husband, if it's a daughter, then the husband will spoil her to the sky, and she can do whatever she wants." Rui Wang said with a smile.

"What do you want? What if you poke a hole in the sky? Are you spoiled too? Gu Yunxin said with the mentality of watching a play.

"Of course, as long as it is the daughter of the husband, the husband must be spoiled."

"Oh, son, son, they are both your father's children, why are they so different? However, it doesn't matter, you still have your mother's love for you, and if you get into trouble, your mother will let your father carry it for you. Gu Yunxin muttered to himself.

In this conversation, the people present listened to the black lines in their heads, and it was too torturous to show affection without such a show of affection.

And Gu Yunxin didn't expect that King Rurui really did what he said, not only his daughter's slave, but also his son's pawn.
