Chapter 33: Shut Out
As the capital of Dazhen, Bianliang City is naturally the most prosperous place in the whole country.
But today's autumn hunting meeting is also a first-class event in the whole country, from the gate of Bianliang City to the western suburbs of the woods on the road to display hundreds of soldiers, courtiers and nobles in the forest sitting in the back of the back pain, these soldiers are also standing on the road dizzy, it is not easy.
Compared with the two little brown horses that Wei Yuchuan rode during the day, the difference between her and the two little brown horses was really 108,000 miles.
Kicking and kicking Lala walked all the way, and when he entered Bianliang City, the sunset had already spread out on the horizon.
The sunset was drunk, like a fire burning clouds, and the color of agate faded into the eyes of the girl at the head of the carriage window.
Today's sunset is dissipating more slowly than usual, as if it is lighting the way home for Gu Jin.
She thought faintly, I am afraid that there will be a rain tonight.
……
At this time, just in time for the people of Bianliang City to clean up the market, Gu Jin's carriage swept all the way through the hustle and bustle of life and headed to the north of the city.
To the north of the city, in the direction of the courtier's residence.
Bianliang City has been in the wind and rain for several dynasties, a total of six emperors, prosperous for more than 200 years, and now the saint has reigned for 23 years, giving benevolent government and settling the world, but only suffered the loss of the weakness.
When the saint was young, he worked hard, determined to quell the rebellion in the north of the war, clean up the six departments of the Gui clan, and worked diligently in the government day and day until he fell into a stubborn disease, and people suffered from various illnesses in middle age, but they were worried about political affairs day and day, and they could not sleep peacefully every night.
The six divisions of the Gui clan took advantage of the weakness of the saint to distribute in Shuobei Vietnam, even though Gu Jiangyuan's father and son were guarding the northern Xinjiang, there were still people in Shuobei who complained about it.
The saint was sympathetic to the people, and in the past two years, he was even more worried about the war, but after all, he was unable to do it and fell ill on the bed.
The prince of the court was undecided, and the dispute over the establishment of the heir and the chief became more and more fierce in the court.
Rao is like this, the saint is still lingering on the sickbed, Shuobei is still in flames, the court is still standing and arguing, and there is still the danger of overturning behind the prosperity of Bianliang City.
Gui's six divisions, sooner or later, it will be a disaster.
"Miss, it's ......"
Yun Xuan's voice came, pulling back Gu Jin's thoughts, and he arrived home.
Gu Mansion, or General Gu's Mansion, or Marshal Gu's Mansion.
Now that Prime Minister Wei, the head of the hundred officials, has been suppressed by Ning Guogong, there are not many courtiers who can be respected, but Gu Jiangyuan is counted as one, because he holds 100,000 troops in his hands.
Gu Jiangyuan's wife, mother, and daughter are all in Bianliang, and they have been blessed by the saints, and this mansion is indeed not small compared to ordinary mansions.
Gu Jin is a concubine, and she never walks through the front gate in her life, so the carriage rushed to the corner gate of the backyard.
Yun Qian stepped forward and knocked on the door.
"Second Miss is back, open the door quickly."
No one responded.
Yun Qian knocked three more times.
No one responded.
Gu Jin sensed that something was wrong in the carriage, although the corner gate was guarded in the past, it was always open during the day, and it was locked after dark. It was just dark today, and the courtyard must have known that Gu Jin hadn't returned home yet, so it shouldn't have been locked in advance.
"What's going on?" The girl has been running around all day today, and her voice is already tired.
The coachman was an honest man, and after thinking about this for a while, he said to Gu Jin: "Second Miss, I think it's because the housewife and the young ladies are not at home today, and the doorman in this courtyard is lazy." If you don't ...... Go knock on the front door, shall you? ”
Gu Jin nodded, feeling that this was reasonable, the courtyard guarding the corner gate was old, and it was possible to be lazy. Although she has never walked through the main gate, there is no saying that a concubine can't go through the main gate.
"Go knock."
She commanded the coachman.
The coachman answered, and was about to tie the reins of his horse to the bolt stone in front of the door.
Xu was the neighing of the horse, which startled the people of the inner court, and the people inside spoke.
"Second Miss, don't knock, it's plain and disturbing the peace for no reason."
This is not the voice of the old family, it is the voice of a mother-in-law.
Mrs. Liu, in the He family's courtyard.
Gu Jin's eyes fell when she heard this, and her long eyelashes were shadowed by the faint light of the lantern on the door, and fell on the Qingxue skin, and she silently pondered in her heart.
Yun Qian still didn't understand what he meant, and shouted in his voice: "Mother Liu, the second miss is back, open the door and let the young lady in." ”
Mrs. Liu's sneering voice: "Oh, Miss Yunqi, why is it still called by the second miss and the second miss, our third miss said, this is a character who wants to climb the dragon and attach the phoenix, the young lady who is famous in Bianliang, where do you dare to let her enter the Gu family's court!" ”
Yun Xuan's little face turned red instantly, Miss Today won the first place in one fell swoop, obviously she came back with glory for the Gu family, she was too late to be happy, why did Mother Liu say such a thing.
Gu Jin understood Mrs. Liu's words, and also understood Yun Xuan's expression, she smiled rarely, and the guess in her heart became a little clearer: Mrs. Liu came here to guard the door because she was instructed, and that person was not He but Gu Xiang, but He should have acquiesced.
At the autumn hunting meeting, Lu Guitang talked to Gu Jin many times, but Gu Xiang saw it, and now she is angry in her heart, which is understandable.
Today, for the first time in her life, she was rejected by the Gu family.
