Chapter 269: People's hearts are cold
Both parents are in prison, Gu Shuniang just wants to dress up more flamboyant, Gu Wanniang should accept Gu Shuniang's praise, so she didn't speak, and hung Gu Shuniang all the way, Gu Shuniang was not embarrassed on the road, but she could only endure in front of the early ancestors, and only if she had enough forbearance could she appear more aggressive.
Gu Wanniang got out of the carriage and entered the palace gate, and her mood was not very good.
Men and women are seated, Gu Jing is in the left column, and Gu Lao Ancestor takes Gu Wanniang and Gu Shuniang to take the right seat, Gu Shuniang is in a seat behind Gu Wanniang, so Gu Wanniang is sitting with the county lord of Xiangqiu.
The family of the county lord of Xiangqiu is also the party of King Qin, but the uncle is smart, and he defected to the lineup on the day he saw Yi An enter Beijing, and the family business of the Han Chengbo Mansion is still there, and the county lord of Xiangqiu is still the noble county lord of Chang'an City.
Gu Wanniang's expression was a little disgusted, even if she was sitting upright in the seat, she could be seen to be absent-minded, "I have heard that Gu San's girl has set a good family affair and fought to seize the city, Gu San's girl has become the young lady of the Mei family who is envied by everyone in Chang'an City from the wanted list, with the friendship between the second son of Mei and the new emperor, I am afraid that Gu San's girl is lucky." ”
Xiangqiu's accosting made Gu Wanniang turn her head and glance at her, the two of them were close to each other, and they could hear clearly, but they couldn't see their expressions clearly in the night.
Gu Wanniang: "Has the marriage between the county lord of Xiangqiu and my second brother been decided?" ”
It is a family matter mentioned by Han Chengbo's mansion, Xie Yuan's intention to let the two mansions marry does not necessarily have to be Gu Jing and Xiangqiu, the selected candidate is recommended by Xiangqiu, Xiangqiu likes Gu Jing? One was a talented girl in the women's college of Meijia Academy, and the other was an unqualified student who was always punished for skipping school.
Xiangqiu's words paused, probably not expecting Gu Wanniang to tell the matter directly to herself.
"Although Gu Jing is stubborn and not loved by the elders, and the matchmaker's selection always thinks that Gu Jing is not a good match, but how many boudoir women in Chang'an City don't like the heroic young man?"
"I used to envy you for being Gu Jing's favorite sister, there was a heroic boy who coaxed you to make trouble for you, I envied you that you were Cheng Yu's sweetheart, and the three top jinshi would also buy you the most interesting gadgets in the world. But unfortunately, I like to stay in the academy to study, and you don't like to meet people, so we have never met each other, only to meet in Mr. Bai's class at the Mei Family Academy. ”
"I saw that you were not so good, and you were not worthy of such a good son of Cheng Yu and Gu Jing, but then you met the second son of Mei, probably you have always been lucky." Xiangqiu bit his lip when he spoke, it was impossible for Gu Wanniang not to be jealous.
Xiangqiu: "When Qingcheng dislikes you, I don't like you either, and I even understand why Qingcheng has made things difficult with you again and again." ”
"I won't be as stupid as Qingcheng, embarrassed by you on the surface, and ended up with a haircut and trapped in Qingshan. But, the third sister? Xiangqiu called Gu Wanniang cordially, probably because the marriage between Xiangqiu and Gu Jing was really decided.
Gu Wanniang said: "Since you are happy with Gu Jing, then after marrying into the Gu Mansion, treat the Gu family and treat him well." ”
Seeing Gu Wanniang's indifference, Xiangqiu was shocked, although Gu Jing and Gu Wanniang are not compatriots, but the hospital is closer than her brother and sister, why doesn't Gu Wanniang think that she is not a good match for Gu Jing? "It's as it should be."
"The man is gone." Gu Wanniang suddenly spoke.
was originally discovered by Gu Wanniang, Xiangqiu said dumbly, thinking that he had delayed very well, it turned out that it had always been expected by Gu Wanniang. Xiangqiu: "No wonder you can get Cheng Yu and Second Prince Mei's appreciation." ”
Xiangqiu wouldn't suddenly say so many things to Gu Wanniang, if she did, it would have a purpose.
Gu Wanniang picked up a bowl of small fruit wine in front of the table and took a sip, knowing that Gu Shuniang sitting behind her was missing without looking back. Xiangqiu and Gu Shuniang used to be friends, and they will also become sisters-in-law in the future, so there is no surprise to her.
Gu Shuniang got an invitation card from Xie Yuan today, which was the opportunity Xie Yuan gave her, her sister is really the second, and she was born for the next position.
When it was time for the banquet, Emperor Xie Yuan had not yet arrived, and several eunuchs in front of the dragon throne whispered in their ears, and informed the female officials and grandmothers in charge, probably because Xie Yuan couldn't find him or was late, in short, something went wrong The emperor was late.
Gu Wanniang felt a little bored, so she got up and walked to the location of the imperial garden, Gu Wanniang didn't know the way, but today there are a lot of relatives in the palace, and there are palace maids and eunuchs everywhere who will not get lost.
The evening breeze is quite cold, and in the winter season, it is not enough to keep warm even if you shrink your body, and you need a warm cloak to block the cold wind.
Mei Huailing didn't attend today's banquet, and he didn't know what he was busy with, and for more than half a month, Gu Wanniang didn't see him appear in front of her eyes. Thinking of the eight good maids that Xie Yuan sent to him, he didn't know how Xie Yuan would block Gu Wanniang and Mei Huailing in the future, and he became more and more bored when he thought about it.
As soon as her body was hot, Gu Wanniang was put on a cloak, but she turned around but Yi An.
Gu Wanniang's raised eyebrows were relaxed, "Cousin of the Yi family, now that he is a supreme minister, he still likes to hide in a place where no one is around." ”
"The same goes for you."
"I'm different, I just feel that the dinner party is a little boring, so I just come out to relax."
Yi An looked at Gu Wanniang in front of him, he knew that Xie Yuan had done something restless to Gu Wanniang's side, it was because of Gu Wanniang's appearance, which caused a gap between the three of them who had grown up. But Yi An didn't stop it, he had the opportunity to let the woman in front of him not have to worry about it, but unfortunately the woman had already drawn a clear line with him, and he also knew how to restrain himself.
"Why don't you stop your second sister." Yi An had mentioned her, and Gu Wanniang also knew what Gu Shuniang was going to do.
"Stop her from what? Stop her from wanting to be queen, or does she want to save her uncle and aunt? "The old ancestor and Gu Jing have made trade-offs, and even Gu Jing has provided her with convenience, but Gu Wanniang doesn't want to take care of the trivial things of the Gu family.
Some people's hearts are not warm, and they feel suffocated when they expose the hypocrisy, but why do they leave no hypocrisy on the surface after they are exposed?
Probably there is a lot of trouble in the palace, and the old palace people are walking quickly and in a hurry. "Cousin Yi is at this time now, why don't you preside over the overall situation? This is just the end of the enthronement ceremony, it is not good to cause trouble, even if it is to cause trouble, it cannot mess up the hearts of the ministers. ”
"When the time comes, it's time to go."
Yi'an: "Before I can do that, I'll have to take you somewhere where someone wants to see you. ”
