Chapter 126: Marriage Request
Lin Wanzhi heard Gu Yanran's sigh, and her eyes turned red in distress. "Yan'er, you go home with your mother.
Now the world is not peaceful, you are alone and only being bullied, look, how long has it been since you left the house, and so many things have happened. ”
She really can't bear to let her beloved daughter continue to suffer outside.
Gu Yanran smiled bitterly. "Mother, do you really think that Yan'er can live a peaceful life in the house? If there is peace in the house, my reputation will not be tarnished to this extent. ”
"This ......" Lin Wanzhi wanted to say something to refute Gu Yanran, but in the end she was speechless.
"Gu Qiuyu and Gu Kerou have spared no effort to smear me in the past, and these rumors against me today are also inseparable from Gu Kerou." Gu Yanran hated Gu Kerou very much at the moment.
The new hatred of the present dynasty and the old hatred of the previous life, when the time comes, she will find Gu Kerou to settle a total account!
"What kind of demon is she doing again?" Lin Wanzhi's expression could not hide her disgust for Gu Kerou.
She is most unaccustomed to seeing one set in front of her face and one behind her back in her life, but she can't even see through the yellow-haired girl who has not yet reached the end of time.
If it weren't for Yan'er's desperate fuss that day, she probably wouldn't have doubted Gu Kerou and Gu Qiuyu's nature until now.
"Well, look at my hand." Gu Yanran stretched out the hand that was injured by Gu Kerou that day. "This is Gu Kerou's masterpiece!"
Lin Wanzhi stroked the slender scar and scolded angrily. "This little slut, how dare you use such unruly means against you, look at how I clean her up when I go back!"
"Don't be in a hurry, I'm not done yet." Gu Yanran continued to sue. "Du Mengyao, you know each other, right?"
"The concubine of the Prime Minister's Mansion, of course I know." Lin Wanzhi didn't know why Gu Yanran suddenly mentioned Du's concubine.
"After I became the master of the four arts of the second prince at the behest of the king, Du Mengyao specially asked me to take her to meet the second prince."
Lin Wanzhi waited for the following. "And then?"
"Then, I sternly rejected Du Mengyao's unreasonable request, and was about to leave, who knew that Gu Kerou would scratch me when she came up." Gu Yanran was aggrieved and flattened her mouth. "At that time, I saw blood, but it hurt."
Every time she thought about it, she felt aggrieved, and regretted that she couldn't go up with her backhand to scratch it back.
"It doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt anymore." Lin Wanzhi lowered her head slightly and sighed towards the scar, and said lightly. "Wait, Wei Niang will definitely find a chance to give you this bad breath."
Gu Yanran squeezed into Lin Wanzhi's chair and sat down, throwing herself into the warm embrace that had been absent for a long time. "It's so nice to be a mother."
"Silly girl." Lin Wanzhi was stunned, patting Gu Yanran's back with familiar and regular movements. "As a mother, you are such a girl, who is not good for you?"
There were two people in the main hall, one maintained a gentle patting motion, and one stayed in the arms of the other and refused to come out.
It took a long time for someone to open their mouths to break the silence.
"Mother." Gu Yanran called Lin Wanzhi sullenly, and poured out her thoughts to herself. "Du Mengyao, it seems that she likes the second prince.
The second prince had just returned to the imperial city a few days ago, and wanted to get acquainted with the environment in the city, so he asked me to take him around.
Who would have thought that when I went to the moat at noon yesterday morning, I was secretly followed by Du Mengyao and Gu Kerou.
I didn't know about this at first, and thanks to the second prince's information, I wasn't kept in the dark.
When I arrived at the moat, I saw that Du Mengyao was getting close to the second prince.
But well...... The second prince told her to get out.
Du Mengyao saw that the second prince ignored people, and was so anxious that he couldn't even speak, which looked quite funny.
and that Gu Kerou, who seized the opportunity of Du Mengyao's scandal and began to express herself, smiling like a flower at the second prince. ”
Lin Wanzhi couldn't listen to it anymore when she heard this. "Gotta got, if Gu Kerou gets the blue eyes of the second prince because of this, you don't have to say any more, I don't want to hear it."
"Not really." Gu Yanran smiled and bent her eyes. "The second prince also didn't give Gu Kerou a good look, and asked the two of them to roll together."
"These two princes are too graceless, how can they let the girl's family get out?" Lin Wanzhi said this, but the corners of her mouth with a smile were almost grinning behind her ears.
Gu Yanran immediately argued for Nangong Xuanyi. "The second prince is not without grace, he is very good, it is Du Mengyao and Gu Kerou who are in a hurry to ask for their own boring, no wonder the second prince."
"Yes, yes, others are good, don't blame him." Lin Wanzhi scratched the tip of Gu Yanran's nose with her fingertips and doted. "Look at you, you can't say a bad word about him for your mother, now it's time for you to admit that you like the second prince, right?"
"I didn't deny that I didn't like him."
"If you don't deny it, then you still like it." Lin Wanzhi made a summary for Gu Yanran. "The children of our Gu Mansion have always dared to love and hate, if they like it, they will let your father enter the palace tomorrow and ask for marriage."
Gu Yanran was so shocked that she quickly sat up straight. "No! Absolutely not! ”
"Why?" Lin Wanzhi was surprised. "You also said just now that the second prince's attitude towards you is different from that towards others, which shows that the second prince also has a good impression of you, and you like him so much, why can't you?"
"Mother, you think things too simply." Gu Yanran had no choice but to analyze the pros and cons of Lin Wanzhi. "The second prince has returned after many years, and the monarch seems to want to make up for the five years he owes the second prince, and all good things and good things are close to the second prince first.
It is no exaggeration to say that the second prince is now in the limelight and has become the object of support of the new faction of the courtiers.
The second prince has passed the age of a weak crown, and there are certainly not a few powerful people in the DPRK and China who have the idea of 'asking for marriage'.
Grandpa is in the high position of the protector of the country, and he has been watched by those people in the court and China.
Do you still remember that day at the birthday banquet of the Queen Mother, the seventh princess said that she wanted to 'punish my nine clans'?
A princess, no matter how arrogant she is on weekdays, is categorically impossible to say such things in public.
Unless, someone told her.
The Protectorate Mansion is already embattled, and if there is another request for marriage, it is difficult to guarantee that it will not be accused of 'having other intentions' and 'plotting to usurp the throne' by others.
At that time, not only will the marriage not be invited, but it will also put the entire Protectorate Mansion in a desperate situation. ”
Lin Wanzhi was terrified when she thought about it. "This, this, you're right, it's true that I'm thinking too simple."
"So, please give up the idea of marriage." Gu Yanran sat back in her chair and handed another piece of tea to Lin Wanzhi's mouth. "There's another piece, you can eat, and if you eat, you'd better go back early."
Lin Wanzhi viciously chewed the refreshments brought to her mouth. "You little conscienceless, are you rushing to leave for your mother?"
"Yan'er doesn't dare, it's just ......" Gu Yanran suddenly covered her lips and smiled. It's getting dark, and if you don't get home before dark, Daddy will have to make trouble again. ”
