There was a very dazzling carriage parked in front of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and there was a row of maids in palace clothes standing next to the carriage, and several little eunuchs were standing behind it.

"From the palace?" When Yan Suwen handed his hand to Gu Changfeng, he saw his somewhat unhappy face, and then followed by his gaze on the dazzling carriage. "Look at this battle, it won't be the Anping County Lord again."

"No, this is the honor guard of the concubines in the palace." Gu Yunfei poked his neck and looked: "I guess it's Concubine Li who is here." ”

"Concubine Li?"

"Didn't you tell Madame?" Gu Yunfei glanced at Gu Changfeng cautiously.

"What did you say?" Yan Suwen moved his gaze back to Gu Changfeng's face: "Yanqing, you have something to hide from me." ”

"Yan ......" Hearing this title, Gu Yunfei only felt a suffocation in his throat, as if he was blocked by something. Unconsciously, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh.

In the whole world, those who dare to call Xiangye Yan Qing in person are probably only the lady and the one in the palace.

"Nothing important." Gu Changfeng replied lightly, took Yan Suwen's hand and walked to the house: "It doesn't matter to the person, if you don't want to see it, just go back." ”

"You're here to see me?" Yan Suwen is not stupid, so he can naturally hear the implied meaning of Gu Changfeng's words just now. But she couldn't figure it out, and she couldn't understand why the lady in this palace wanted to see her. Could it be that she was lucky enough to be the wife of the Prime Minister's Mansion?

I was a little apprehensive in my heart, so when Gu Changfeng was not paying attention, he quietly turned around and asked Gu Yunfei: "What is the origin of this Concubine Li?" It won't be the backer of the lord of Anping. ”

"Yes, but not at all." Gu Yunfei gave an ambiguous answer.

"Mother was born in Jiangmen, you know this." Gu Changfeng stopped and gave Gu Yunfei a look, and the latter stopped in place with interest.

"When I first came to the Prime Minister's Mansion, my grandmother specifically told me about my mother-in-law, so I knew a little about it."

"My maternal grandfather was a general guarding the frontier, and my maternal grandmother was also a heroine who could carry a gun and kill the enemy. Although she married my father, she was still free and easy in her bones. Others only know that my maternal grandfather and maternal grandmother only gave birth to my mother, but they don't know that my maternal grandfather also adopted a righteous daughter. ”

"Concubine Li?"

"Hmm." Gu Changfeng nodded: "Her biological father was a striker under my maternal grandfather, and he was also a confidant and confidant who blocked the sword for my maternal grandfather several times on the battlefield. After his death, his grandfather went to comfort his family, only to learn that he had given birth to a daughter with a happy woman. After learning of his death, the woman returned to the Qinglou to resume her old job, leaving her young daughter at home and leaving her to live with the seriously ill elderly. My grandfather couldn't bear it, so he took her in as a righteous daughter and raised her in the general's mansion, with the same food and clothing as my mother. ”

"But what did she do later, that's why you made Yan Qing look displeased when you mentioned her."

"Mother and father are the orders of parents, and the words of matchmakers." Gu Changfeng raised his head and looked at the courtyard where Old Madam Gu lived from a distance.

"I thought my father-in-law and mother-in-law were in free love."

"Free love?"

"It's the kind of two people who meet by chance, and then look at each other, fall in love at first sight, and promise each other for life." Yan Su asked, explaining.

"Silly girl, do you think everyone can be like you and me?" Gu Changfeng shook his head, "Although my grandfather and grandmother don't have any opinions, but in the border town, the eldest lady of the general's mansion, not everyone dares to covet it, and my mother followed her grandparents into battle to kill the enemy when she was a teenager. Those ordinary people are neither willing nor brave to go to the general's mansion to propose marriage. Seeing that the girls of the same age as my mother had already become mothers, the rental parents began to choose a good match for her, and when they chose to choose, they chose my father. ”

"Father-in-law must be a good match for mother-in-law."

"Yes, although my father was born in a scholarly family, he is not the kind of sour and rotten reader. Although he can't carry it on his shoulders or lift it in his hands, he has the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains of the Great Wei in his chest, yearning for the Jin Ge Iron Horse and the grass leather shroud. Mother, although she was born in the general's mansion, she is not an arrogant and unreasonable eldest lady, she can not only go into battle to kill the ground, but also chant poetry and paint, and even her father's clothes, shoes and hats are sewn by her. ”

"No wonder they can give birth to a child as good as you." Yan Suwen looked down at his hands: "Alas, compared to my mother-in-law, I am really a little useless." Yanqing, are you very aggrieved when you marry me? ”

"Fool! Mother is unique in the world, but you are not something I married back casually. ”

"Also, a powerful character like my mother-in-law can only come out in hundreds of years. How fortunate I am to be the daughter-in-law of your Gu family. Yan Su asked with a smile: "After talking for a long time, it's all about my mother-in-law, what about Concubine Li, what did she do?" ”

When my mother left the cabinet, she naturally wanted to enter Beijing from the border, so she begged her grandparents to allow her to accompany her all the way, but who knew that she actually had thoughts about my father that she shouldn't have moved. Fortunately, her father is very upright and has a soft spot for her mother, so she has no choice but to stay in the Gu family anymore. ”

"Then how did she get into the palace?"

"She carried her grandparents behind her back, recognized someone else as her father, and entered the palace as the daughter of that person to choose a choice, relying on her appearance and scheming, she first became Concubine Li, and then became Concubine Li."

"Isn't the concubine of the former emperor dismissed, and the emperor temple is in the emperor's temple, how can this concubine Li still live in the palace?"

"Because she gave birth to a son." Gu Changfeng explained: "When the first emperor died, her son had just landed, and the first emperor couldn't bear it, so he allowed her not to enter the imperial temple to pray for her blessings and recite scriptures. After Anping entered the palace, she was also raised by her. In this palace, in addition to the queen mother, only she, Concubine Li, is the old man left by the emperor. ”

"I thought the emperor had no heirs." Yan Su asked and muttered quietly.

The current emperor is not the biological son of the previous emperor, but the successor to the name of the empress dowager. Therefore, during the period when the first emperor died and the new emperor ascended the throne, the vassal king was in turmoil and made a lot of trouble for a while.

"Before Concubine Li gave birth to that child, the emperor only had a princess, not a prince." Gu Changfeng explained: "Even with this prince, according to Concubine Li's temperament, it is difficult for her son to take on a big responsibility, and he can't bear the thousands of miles of my Great Wei." ”

"I hope Concubine Li thinks so in her heart."

"Naturally, she had other ideas, but my mother and I didn't bother to pay attention to them." Gu Changfeng snorted coldly: "If you want to see it, go and see it, if you don't want to, just go back, my mother will never be angry with you because of this matter." ”

"Since Yanqing's words are here, what's the matter if I go to see them. I can't let people underestimate me, and I can't underestimate you, thinking that you are a dignified prime minister who married a woman who doesn't understand the rules. ”

"I know that I didn't marry the wrong person, what others think, it has nothing to do with me, and I don't care."

Yan Suwen was moved in his heart, and stretched out his hand to hug Gu Changfeng: "I care, in the future, I have to earn enough face for you." ”

As soon as he returned to the room and changed his clothes, the maid from Mrs. Gu's side came to pass the word, saying that Concubine Li from the palace was here and wanted to meet the young lady. At the same time, the maid also left something else, saying that the young lady returned to the door today, and if she felt tired, she didn't need to go over.

Sure enough, it is a mother and son, and the heart and way of protecting her are exactly the same.

The mother-in-law was so protective, how could Yan Suwen make her lose face, not only took care of her clothes, but also wore a considerable amount of headdress and ornaments, and then followed the maid to Mrs. Gu's courtyard full of energy.

"Su Wen came over. When you came back today, did you go to see your grandmother? ”

"I went to see it, and grandmother is all right." Yan Suwen replied softly, first blessed Old Madam Gu, and then turned her body to the woman who was dressed in beautiful palace clothes, with a gorgeous posture, and always had a little calculation in her eyes.

"This is Concubine Li."

"Concubine Niang."

"Come and let me see." Concubine Li stared at Yan Su with a smile and asked, as if she was trying to put on a kind face: "You are the lady Feng'er newly married, right?" I heard that you are the second lady of the imperial doctor Yan family? ”

"Yes!" Yan Suwen replied obediently, and during the whole process, she never raised her head to meet Concubine Li's inquiring gaze.

Yan Suwen was well-behaved, but he pretended not to look at Concubine Li, but he did it deliberately. Before she couldn't figure out Concubine Li's true intentions, she couldn't let Concubine Li figure out her true character and hidden thoughts.

Seeing Yan Suwen, Concubine Li walked to herself obediently, although her makeup was exquisite, her face still had the youth of a young girl. When she saluted, she was also a little cautious, which was very in line with the information she had received before - this daughter-in-law of the Gu family was born and raised in the countryside.

Her background is also not good, and she is even more familiar with these cautions. Thinking of this, he smiled gently, took a string of beads from the side and put it on Yan Suwen's hand: "Your mother-in-law and I are sisters with different surnames, according to the rules, you have to call me an aunt." In the future, if there are no outsiders, you can just call me aunt. Concubine Li is called by outsiders, and it is also for outsiders to listen to and see. ”

Concubine Li paused: "When you married Feng'er, I was in the palace, and I couldn't help myself, and I couldn't go out of the palace to congratulate you." This string of beads was given by the emperor when I was promoted to the throne of concubine. Today, I will pass it on to you, hoping that you and Feng'er husband and wife will be harmonious and beautiful. ”

Yan Suwen first glanced up at Old Madam Gu, and when she saw her nodding in acquiescence, she accepted the beads and said, "Thank you for your kindness." ”

"You kid, why are you still a concubine." Concubine Li shook her head and said to Mrs. Gu in a slightly complaining tone: "Sister, look, is your daughter-in-law deliberately trying to be estranged from me?" ”
