Chapter Seventy-Seven: Saving Face
Listening to Zun Mojun's words, this time the Liu family seems to be doing okay, but when it comes to her today, I'm afraid things are not so simple.
looked at King Xuan and motioned for him to continue, presumably there should be an unexpected surprise in the next words.
In the queen mother's heart, she didn't think that the Liu family would be a proper person.
"Erchen didn't finish this matter, the incense in Gu's room is not her own, it is Erchen's side room, Liu's family gave it as a gift a few months ago, Erchen was going to put Liu's in prison yesterday, but she had to clamoring to come to see you, Erchen thought that this matter was a family matter, but since it involved national prohibitions, she was clamoring to see the Queen Mother, just see the Queen Mother."
"That's why today's Erchen brought the Gu clan and the Liu clan together."
After Zun Mojun finished speaking, he asked Gu Muqing and the Liu family to kneel in front of the Queen Mother.
"Why are you arguing to see the mourners?" The Queen Mother looked down at Liu and asked in a cold tone.
"Back to the Queen Mother, the little girl wronged and asked the Queen Mother to be the master of the little girl." Liu cried and buckled his head several times.
"What's the matter, you can tell the mourning family again." The Queen Mother looked at the Liu family with interest, and wanted to see how the Liu family planned to exonerate herself, if she had the ability to remove herself from this matter, it meant that she could still keep it.
"The Empress Dowager, the concubine returned from the palace that day, and received a gift from Mama Li, after the concubine accepted it, thinking that the concubine had not gone to congratulate the princess after entering the palace, she picked a few items from those gifts and sent them fresh and luxurious, the concubine did not know what the wooden box was for, looking at such a beautiful and precious object, she had not given it to her sister before she played with it, but she didn't expect it to become a scourge now." Liu replied tremblingly.
"Then what do you mean, that thing is not put by the mourning family?" The Queen Mother looked at Liu, her eyes full of disappointment.
"The concubine doesn't dare." Liu lowered his head humbly.
Zun Motian looked at the scene at the moment, and said helplessly, "Bold Liu, you have embezzled the forbidden objects of the state without permission, and you still dare to frame the queen mother." ”
Liu knew that he was powerless to return to the sky, and he was very panicked in his heart.
Desperately said to the Queen Mother, "The Queen Mother, the concubine is an ordinary woman, you and your father planned to send me to King Xuan's mansion, and placed me next to King Xuan as a chess piece, what the concubine wants is nothing more than to get a person's heart, so that she can live a good life, you repeatedly put pressure on the concubine body to let me get rid of Gu Muqing, and now you have resolutely abandoned me." ”
"The little girl knew yesterday that her life was short, and I wanted to enter the palace today to see you just to have a final fight, but I didn't expect you to be so ruthless, so don't blame me for having no intention."
After Liu finished speaking, he pulled out the golden hairpin that was originally inserted on his head, and his hair poured down to his waist.
She riveted her strength and rushed towards Gu Muqing, and the hairpin was aimed at Gu Muqing's heart.
Seeing Liu's crazy appearance, Gu Wen rushed to Gu Muqing's face, and used his shoulder to block this deep stab for Gu Muqing, blood trickled down from Gu Wen's shoulder, staining his dark clothes.
"Come on, take down this crazy woman who is full of nonsense." Zun Motian finally finished watching the show in front of him.
He knew in his heart that what Liu said should be true.
He understands the queen mother's style of acting, vicious and decisive, listening to the meaning of the Liu family, it should have been a long time since his mother secretly restrained Zun Mojun for herself, and he couldn't let the Liu family talk about it anymore.
Zun Motian's personal guards drew their swords and surrounded the Liu clan.
"Put her in jail and wait for her to be released."
Liu struggled and was dragged down by the soldiers.
Gu Muqing looked at the departing figure of the Liu family, and thought in his heart that in this chaotic palace, I don't know how many women take the wrong step for love, and if they do something wrong, they will end up like this.
It is really a mountain with trees and branches, the heart is happy and the king does not know, the still water flows deeply, and the vicissitudes of life are singing; Three lives are cloudy and sunny, and once there are joys and sorrows.
She wants to firmly hold Zun Mojun's thigh and survive the future calamity safely.
She knew that the Liu family would not be the first woman who wanted to harm herself, and there would definitely be a second or third Liu family.
"You all go down, the mourning family is tired and needs to rest."
The Queen Mother took Mama Li's hand, got up and stepped out of the chair, "Gu Muqing? ”
"The concubine is here."
The Queen Mother turned around and called Gu Muqing, smiled at Gu Muqing with a kind face, didn't say anything else, turned around and walked back to the dormitory.
Gu Muqing knelt on the ground, watching the Queen Mother leave, and the Queen Mother's call made Gu Muqing instantly shed cold sweat and flow down his spine.
Zun Motian looked at Gu Muqing's little bird leaning in Zun Mojun's arms, and couldn't help but think of the other daughter of the Gu family who he saw in Xiangfu that day.
"Flowers and flowers are blooming all over the sky, who has mercy on the red incense? The gossamer is soft and fluttering, and the flocculent is lightly stained with the embroidery curtain......"
Under a tree full of gardenias, a woman with long hair swings, reciting poetry in her mouth, the breeze blows, the green silk hanging down her waist flutters with the wind, the ink-like pupils flicker with smart light, the long eyelashes are like fairy wings, flashing and flashing, and the corners of her mouth have a meaningful smile.
The girl on the swing jumped down, stood up and walked to Zun Motian's side, "This son is here to find Daddy, right?" Daddy is in the study. ”
Zun Motian couldn't help but be stunned when he looked at the beauty in front of him, he felt that the air was still at this time, and said with a smile, "I'm here to find Prime Minister Gu, Miss Xie will show you the way." ”
Gu Muqi took Xiao Er's hand, glanced at Zun Motian, and ran away happily.
The thoughts of the memories were interrupted by the small talk between Gu Muqing and Zun Mojun.
Gu Muqing sighed, "Hey, life in this deep mansion compound is not easy. ”
"Why did Concubine Ai say that?" Zun Mojun looked at Gu Muqing with interest.
"Women in this world want to harm others for two reasons, either for their lover or for their children."
Zun Mojun pondered Gu Muqing's words, "What does that lady mean?" ”
"Lord, the concubine has a reluctant request."
"Ask the prince and His Majesty to discuss giving the Liu family a decent way to die, after all, we are both the prince's wives and concubines, although the Liu family designed to frame the concubines, but they also accompanied the concubines for a lot of time on weekdays, the Liu family is also the position of the scholar, and it is also a figure with a head and a face in the palace, leave a corpse for the Liu family so that the family can live and settle down, and everyone can get by on face."
Zun Motian listened to Gu Muqing's words and thought, he didn't expect her to be such a reasonable and well-intentioned woman, and the rumors and rumors that spread before really made him underestimate her.
