Chapter 8: Kill a princess halfway
Gu Linan hurried back to the house, and as soon as he entered the lobby, he said to Gu Xiyuan, "Go and call Gu Xiqing over." β
Gu Xiyuan wiped her tears and said, "Daddy, Yuan'er was about to tell you about this, my sister had an affair with a strange man last night, and she was bumped into by His Royal Highness this morning, so she was so angry that she turned around and left, and her sister was ashamed for a while, so she committed suicide in the room, and I am afraid that she will be out of breath." β
"What?" Gu Linan was so angry that he waved his hand and slapped her, and roared angrily: "Why don't you, as the daughter of the Gu family, stop her?" β
Gu Xiyuan didn't react for a while, her body deviated, and she almost fell to the ground, but fortunately Chunzhi helped her, "Miss, are you okay?" β
Gu Xiyuan looked at Gu Linan aggrievedly, beating herself is the pearl of the Gu family, where has she suffered anything, let alone been beaten, Gu Xiyuan cried and asked, "Daddy, why do you want to beat Yuan'er?" It was my sister who did something wrong. β
Gu Linan roared angrily: "Don't talk nonsense, come here, hurry up and ask Imperial Doctor Zhang, no, this matter can't be spread, hurry up and find a doctor to cure the second miss, if the second miss can't get better, you all don't live." β
Gu Xiyuan asked puzzledly, "Daddy, what happened here?" β
Gu Linan said, "What's the matter? Xiqing was given by the emperor to marry King Leng as a concubine, if something happens to her in the Gu Mansion, our whole house will not be able to give King Leng an explanation, and we will all have to die! β
Gu Xiyuan was stunned for a moment, and muttered incredulously: "Impossible, how can this be?" Didn't she marry the second prince? Didn't the second prince get out of the marriage? Even so, the second prince agreed to marry me, even if she can't marry the second prince, it is impossible to marry King Leng again? β
How could that slut have such a good life?
The death of her mother left her a good marriage, the second prince liked her so much before, and she worked so hard to get what she wanted, but she could get so much that did not belong to her without any effort.
Gu Linan heard Gu Xiyuan's words, he was very displeased, he still knew Gu Xiyuan's thoughts, she liked the Second Highness, but because the emperor gave the marriage to Gu Xiqing, he could only think of letting their sisters enter the Second Prince's Mansion, so that no matter who he was the queen in the future, it would be beneficial to the Gu family.
But now that a Ming Jiang prince is going to marry the second prince, Princess Jian will be the queen, and the second prince's move has become a dead chess move here.
If Gu Xiqing can get the favor of King Leng, and King Leng may also be the emperor, then Gu Xiqing is undoubtedly the queen, no matter what, he can't let the Gu family be cut off in his hands.
Gu Linan said sharply: "Second prince? Hmph, the second prince is going to marry Princess Mingjiang, you broke off the second prince's thoughts as soon as possible. β
Gu Linan's words were like a thunderbolt from the sky, and Gu Xiyuan said incredulously: "How could it be that His Royal Highness the Second Highness married Princess Lian?" Doesn't that princess like women? His Royal Highness wouldn't like her. β
"Shut up!" Gu Linan slapped him again and said, "Her Royal Highness the princess, how can you come and chew the root of your tongue?" Let me tell you, don't want to marry the second prince in this life, Ming Jiang is a country of women, only monogamy, the emperor has promised Her Royal Highness the princess, after the princess marries, the second prince will not accept a concubine, not to mention, my Gu Linan's daughter, must not be a concubine! β
Gu Xiyuan cried and knelt down, pulled Gu Linan's clothes and said, "Don't, I just want to marry Brother Ling, and Brother Ling also promised to marry me, Daddy, please do it!" β
Gu Linan no longer felt any pity for his pearl at this moment, because he knew in his heart what was good for her, "Do you dare to compete with the princess for a husband, do you want our entire Gu Mansion to accompany the funeral?" β
Gu Xiyuan saw that this was already the case, but she had worked hard for so long, she couldn't just give up.
After thinking about it, Gu Xiyuan suddenly gave Chunzhi a look, and Chunzhi saw that her young lady was like this, so she hurriedly said: "Master, young lady must marry the second prince, young lady is already a person of the second prince, if she doesn't marry the second prince, she will die!" β
After hearing this, Gu Linan suddenly became furious, suddenly drew his sword and pointed at Gu Xiyuan, and roared angrily: "I don't know shame!" It's a shame for my Gu family. β
Chunzhi hurriedly stopped in front of Gu Xiyuan and said, "Master, you can't blame the eldest lady for this matter, it was the second prince who drank too much that day, and it was the second prince who did that to the eldest lady, the young lady is a weak woman, and the second highness is the prince, how can you stop it?" β
Gu Linan roared angrily: "Hmph, if you don't have the intention of marrying the second prince, will things become like this?" Now I might as well kill you, it's better than Her Royal Highness the princess taking matters into your own hands, and spreading it out to make people laugh at my Gu Linan goddaughter! β
Gu Xiyuan hurriedly kowtowed and said, "Daddy, my daughter knows that she is wrong, my daughter has a way to help her father resolve the crisis!" β
Hearing this, Gu Linan also knew that Gu Xiyuan had always been smart, so he calmed down and said, "Tell me, what is the method?" β
Gu Xiyuan also calmed down, if she didn't calm down, it would really be a failure, Gu Xiyuan said: "The matter has come to this, Daddy might as well send me to the Second Prince's Mansion, and my daughter will stay on her own, he will wait for Ming Jiang to weaken and the relationship with Long Yuguo will ease, the Second Prince will definitely change me as the concubine, as for Gu Xiqing, anyway, Daddy and King Leng are already mortal enemies, and they cannot be resolved, it is better to use Gu Xiqing to deal with King Leng, so that the second prince will definitely pay more attention to the Gu family." β
Gu Xiyuan explained Gu Linan's current problem in a few words, it is reasonable, Xuan Changji has always disliked his Gu Linan's style, and it is impossible to make peace with him because of a Gu Xiqing, it is really unwise to give up the second prince at this time, it is better to use Gu Xiqing to lead the king to help the second prince.
As for Ming Jiang's side, such a strong country has long been a big trouble in the emperor's heart, and when the time is ripe, the Dragon Feather Kingdom will definitely send troops to Ming Jiang, and Princess Ming Jiang will not be afraid at that time.
Gu Linan calmed down and said, "Even so, will Xiqing be obedient?" She has been in love with the second prince for a long time. β
Gu Xiyuan said: "Daddy don't worry, she did that kind of thing, she broke with the second prince a long time ago, as for whether she will be obedient or not, my daughter has a way to make her obedient!" β
βBackyardβ
When Gu Xi came to his senses, he was no longer in his room, but in the most luxurious courtyard of the Gu Mansion.
Gu Xiqing's whole body was weak, and she only vaguely remembered that Gu Xiyuan ordered her to be executed before, but later she was knocked unconscious and thrown in the backyard, and it was a woman who saved herself.
After waking up, Gu Xiqing found that a room full of old mothers and maids were serving her, and what was even more strange was that Gu Linan and Gu Xiyuan were caring about themselves left and right.
Gu Xiqing felt a little disgusted, and hurriedly pushed them away and said, "Am I not dead?" Why is it here? β
In her vague memory, Gu Xiqing suddenly remembered that when she was thrown outside, a girl came to her side, healed her wounds, and let her live, and after that, she lost consciousness.
Gu Linan said: "Xiqing, you finally woke up, it's because your father is not good, he didn't take good care of you, you should take care of your injuries first, and in a few days, King Leng will welcome you into the door." β
Gu Xiqing said in surprise: "What? Cold King? β
