Chapter 213: Dong Shi Xiao provokes criticism
On the birthday of the old lady of Gufu, there was an endless stream of guests who came to congratulate her. Mrs. Gu and Mrs. Gu stood in the courtyard to greet the guests together.
"The king of Xiangyang, the princess of Xiangyang are here......" the little maid at the door sang loudly. Immediately afterwards, I saw the king of Xiangyang and the princess of Xiangyang walking in with their children and their entourage.
"Congratulations to my uncle and aunt, where is the old lady? I took the child over to show the old lady. Zhan Xinyue said with a smile.
"Mother is sitting in the hall, and so are Yunxin and King Rui." Gu Mu smiled lightly.
As soon as the words fell, I heard the little maid outside the door singing loudly: "The prince of Ningguo and the princess of the princess are ......."
Seeing that Xiao Ziming had arrived, Mrs. Gu and Mother Gu stepped forward together and said with a smile: "The prince, the princess." ”
"Mrs. Gu and Mrs. Gu are really happy, this is the first time for the princess to participate in this feast of the nobles of Kyoto, if there is anything bad to do, please take care of Mrs. Gu and Mrs. Gu."
"The princess was born in the royal family, so naturally she will not do anything wrong, even if she does something wrong, she will lose the face of Beiliang and the Xiao family, why should I let my uncle and aunt be treated?" Gu Yunjing raised his voice.
"What Sister Yun Jing said is, if the princess is afraid of embarrassing the Marquis of Ningguo's Mansion, she shouldn't come, the Gu family has nothing to do with you, it is the birthday of the grandmother of the concubine, and it is not the grandmother of the princess, why bother to be courteous here." Gu Peiqing shook his handkerchief and pouted.
"Third sister is fine," Gu Yunjing said slightly towards Gu Peiqing.
"My sister is a good friend. I don't know if the big sister is already here? Gu Peiqing looked around.
"The eldest sister and King Rui have already arrived, and they are talking to grandmother in the hall." Gu Yunjing said with a smile.
"Okay, I'll go see my grandmother in a moment." Gu Pei said lightly.
Mrs. Gu looked at Gu Peiqing, and didn't know what to say to him for a while, this daughter did the same thing as her biological mother, but I just hoped that she wouldn't let herself regret it.
"Father, mother, I'm going to see my grandmother." After finishing speaking, Gu Peiqing walked in the direction of the hall.
Fortunately, Gu Peiqing walked away, otherwise Mrs. Gu wouldn't know how to entertain this "guest".
Gu Peiqing walked to the hall and saw Gu Yunxin and Rui Wang sitting beside Old Madam Gu, talking together, looking at the smile on Old Madam Gu's face, Gu Peiqing was really envious.
Looking at Gu Yunxin, the corners of Gu Peiqing's mouth raised slightly, it seems that a good show is bound to be staged today. Don't you like to imitate, Linghua? Wait and see what happens to you.
Immediately, Gu Peiqing walked in, "I've seen my grandmother, I wish my grandmother happiness is like the long flowing water of the East China Sea, and her longevity is better than that of Nanshan Immortal Pine." ”
"Well, get up. Peiqing, you look a lot thinner, you need to pay more attention to your body. Old Madam Gu said with a smile.
"Grandmother, I don't have anything, I just have to worry about the affairs of the house every day, and it's normal to be a little haggard." Gu Pei said lightly.
Although Xiao Ziming married Ling Hua as a concubine, the affairs of the mansion were still taken care of by Gu Peiqing, in addition to considering that Dao Linghua was not familiar with Da Zhou's interpersonal relationships, the most important thing was that he did not trust Ling Hua.
While speaking, except for the people of the Feng family, other people also arrived at the Gu Mansion one after another, Mrs. Zhan Tai has a fate, even if today is Mrs. Gu's birthday, everyone wants to salute Mrs. Zhan Tai.
Mrs. Zhan looked out of the door from time to time, everyone has arrived, Zhan Xinlan won't be so ignorant and won't come to participate, right?
With the singing and harmony of the little guy outside the door, Zhan Xinlan, Zhan Tianfang, and Zhan Tianlei also arrived, and Mrs. Zhan was relieved to hear that they had arrived.
In the courtyard, the housekeeper was busy counting and registering the gifts sent by each house one by one, so he didn't care about other people or things.
Zhan Xinlan walked in with a hosta and saluted slightly towards Old Madam Gu, "Old Madam Gu Wan'an, grandmother Kang'an." Zhan Xinlan saluted respectfully.
"Xinlan is here, the old body is so happy, we are all relatives, don't be too polite, Xinyue and Yunxin are also here, you young people let's talk more together." Old Madam Gu said with a smile.
"Yes, these days, Sister Xinyue and Yun Xin are staying in the house behind closed doors, and the two princes are taking care of them tightly, so I can't bother them." Zhan Xinlan said with a smile.
"Recently, something has indeed happened in the house, for the safety of Xinyue, I can only let her stay in the house and send more people to protect her." He Yunhai said with a smile on the corner of his mouth.
"Is there something going on in the house? As for the two princes who have sent additional people to guard the palace, could it be that spies from enemy countries have mixed in and want to steal some confidential information? Gu Peiqing said with a smile.
"These things are not convenient to spread outside, it is better for you to be a deep house woman and not inquire." Rui Wang said coldly.
If it weren't for the fact that Gu Peiqing was Gu Yunxin's sister, he wouldn't have bothered to pay attention to this woman. It's just that Gu Peiqing is already an insignificant person to Gu Yunxin.
"Big sister...... Big sister ......" The immature voice outside the door sounded.
You don't have to look at it to know that this is Gu Qinghong coming, as soon as Gu Qinghong saw Gu Yunxin, he threw himself into Gu Yunxin's arms and coquettishly, "Big sister, you're back, Qinghong's hand is going to be sore and broken." ”
"Oh? How could my hand be sore? Did you do something wrong again and was punished by your father for copying articles? Gu Yunxin was so tidy.
This baby brother of hers, as long as he gets into trouble, he is looking for his grandmother and mother for help, under normal circumstances, his grandmother will protect him, first, he is the youngest child in the family, and second, he is a son-in-law, so naturally he can't want to treat his concubine so casually.
"I ...... I accidentally broke the inkstone in my father's study, and my father punished me for copying the university 50 times. Gu Qinghong said with a look of grievance.
Seeing this, Gu Yunxin sneered and laughed, "You have copied it fifty times."
Okay, then you should remember it, can you listen to it to your sister? ”
"Huh? Do you still want to carry it? Gu Qinghong's eyes widened, looking at Gu Yunxin in disbelief, this big sister has always loved him the most, I thought that if she was coquettish like this, the big sister would coax her, but she didn't expect that this coquettish would be useless today.
"Of course, if you can't memorize it, you have copied too little, at least fifty more times." Gu Yunxin was serious.
"No, I'll just carry it. Well...... the way of the university is in Mingmingde, in being close to the people, and in stopping at perfection......" After a while, Gu Qinghong finished reciting this university.
Seeing this, Gu Yunxin couldn't help but smile slightly, Qing Hong was only a three-year-old child who could already recite the entire university, and sure enough, he was still a talented son of a strict father.
Thinking of this, Gu Yunxin couldn't help but set his eyes on Rui Wang and He Yunhai, these two people were also their father's students back then, I don't know, when they were Qinghong's age, would they be able to recite the entire university?
King Rui seemed to see Gu Yunxin's intentions, and then scratched his head, "When I was as old as Qinghong, I could recite the entire university, but it wasn't because I copied a lot, but because I was beaten a lot by the palm of a beater." ”
Yes? I really didn't expect that King Rui was beaten when he was young? Since King Rui has been beaten, He Yunhai must not be able to escape this beating.
"You don't have to look at him, he must be embarrassed to say it, when Yunhai was young, when he couldn't memorize the article, his father-in-law also punished him for copying the article, but he still couldn't remember it after copying it, every time his father-in-law asked a question, he always turned to me for help, so ......"
"So, you two will be punished together!" Mrs. Gu's voice sounded outside the door.
Looking at the two students he taught back then, now these two have become his relatives, and the world is really unpredictable.
"Mother, the guests have arrived, let's take a seat." Mrs. Gu bowed respectfully to Old Madam Gu.
"Okay, let's go." Old Madam Gu got up with a smile and said.
The group walked to the hall, and at this time the guests were already seated, waiting for today's old birthday star, but when Gu Yunxin walked in, everyone's faces flashed with a strange light.
At this time, Princess Linghua's face also became very ugly, she turned out to be exactly the same dress as Princess Rui today.
Gu Yunxin's dressing style has always been so elegant and luxurious, and there have been people in Kyoto who have learned from Princess Rui to wear the same dress, but they are all Dong Shi Xiaofeng, and they can't wear Gu Yunxin's nobility and elegance.
"This Concubine Xiao Shizi is also really, how can she learn to wear clothes with Princess Rui, doesn't she know that the person Xiao Shizi likes in her heart is Princess Rui, so she learns from the other party's sweetheart to win favor?" During the banquet, an official's female family pouted.
"It's not, I don't think this Xiao Ziming knew what he was doing, so he didn't want to let the eldest lady of the Gu family go, but he was mixed with a concubine
Together, now this concubine is a princess from another country, who knows what is going on with this princess. ”
"You don't know, when the envoys of various countries were in the Great Zhou before, Princess Linghua had a miscarriage with Princess Rui, and King Rui almost killed her at the beginning, if it weren't for the diplomatic relations between the two countries, where would I be able to see her now."
"Really? Then this Xiao Shizi is also quite pitiful, he actually married King Rui's enemy as a concubine, and King Rui will inevitably have to get along with him in the future. ”
"Who's to blame, isn't he confused?"
Seeing Xiao Ziming's unkind eyes towards them, the two ladies immediately closed their mouths in understanding.
Today's Xiao family is only a superficial scenery, Queen Xiao is not favored in the harem, and half of the stewardship of the harem has fallen into the hands of Concubine Ru. Moreover, Xiao Ziming married Princess Linghua again, so he would naturally be suspicious of the emperor.
"Shizi, I ......"
"Whoever asked you to wear such clothes, don't you go and change it soon." Xiao Ziming said in a deep voice.
Hearing this, Ling Hua was about to get up and change her dress, but at this moment, Gu Peiqing sneered: "I advise the princess not to change her dress, my big sister will also bring a set of change dresses when she goes out, in case you change into the same clothes again, it won't be my big sister embarrassed."
"Gu Peiqing, you said it, this dress was made for me by the prince of the world, you want to frame me, it's really despicable." Ling Hua gritted his teeth.
"Don't blame me, princess, she dresses up as my big sister on weekdays, and seduces him to your room when the prince is drunk, but at this time you say that the concubine framed you, so you followed my big sister's example before, and I forced you to do it?" Gu Peiqing raised his voice.
When she saw Gu Yunxin today, she knew that Ling Hua would become the laughing stock of everyone, but what she didn't expect was that King Rui didn't have a seizure, if it had been left before, I am afraid that King Rui would have let Ling Hua's clothes be torn apart.
At this moment, Zhan Xinlan smiled slightly at Gu Peiqing, and Gu Peiqing picked up the wine glass in understanding......
