Chapter IV: Marriage

"Miss, this brocade bamboo must have been sent by the second lady, and it is really dangerous to stay by your side." Aunt Su said worriedly.

Gu Xiqian's eyes were deep, and she said in a light tone: "It's okay, in the future, she will bring the medicine in, and we can pour it out secretly, it is not appropriate to startle the snake at this time, the Lin family is now in charge of the palace, and the palace is also her people, we have insufficient evidence, we can't easily make a conclusion, if we do it, we must uproot it."

Aunt Su and Cai Yin listened to Gu Xiqian's words, and they probably understood what they meant.

"It's just, Miss, your body?" Cai Yin asked worriedly.

"Fortunately, this poisonous herb is chronic, and it is not that there is no cure, but it is ......" Gu Xiqian thought of one of the medicinal herbs, but felt that it was really difficult to obtain.

"If you want to detoxify the poison of this poisonous weed, you also need a snow lotus in the Yunnan Snow Mountain, the other snow lotus medicinal properties are small, and it is not easy to detoxify, only the snow lotus in the Yunnan Snow Mountain, affected by the climate over there, the medicinal properties are much larger, and it will be able to restrain the toxin, I am preparing some other medicines, and it will be solved in many days."

Aunt Su and Cai Yin looked at each other, Yunnan is too far away from the imperial city, it will take months to come and go, and it is a snow lotus on the snow mountain, how rare.

Aunt Su has been secretly inquiring about where there is a snow lotus on the snow mountains in Yunnan, and Gu Xiqian also prepared some medicine for Cai Yin to fry separately.

Whenever Cai Yin decoction was sent to do something else, after many days, although Gu Xi's body was still a little weak, it was much better than it.

The Lin family and Gu Miaoxuan didn't know what to do these days, and they didn't come to trouble her, but the Fang family and their son Gu Ronghe had seen her.

On this day, the little maid came to deliver a message, saying that King Xiang asked Gu Xiqian to go over.

Gu Xiqian dressed up decently and went to the main hall of the palace.

King Xiang sat on the main seat of the main hall with a frown, and saw Gu Xiqian come in and showed a smile, since Princess Xiang died, he really didn't take the time to look at this daughter, but he knew that she had been sick for a few days.

On both sides of the main hall sat the second lady Lin, the third lady Fang, and the concubine Gu Miaoxuan.

Gu Xiqian made a proper salute, and King Xiang beckoned her to sit down.

King Xiang sighed and said to Gu Xiqian: "Qian'er, this morning the emperor made a decree in the court, you were named the county lord of Ronghui, and Miao Xuan was named the county lord."

When Gu Miaoxuan heard this, she glanced at Gu Xiqian dissatisfied.

Gu Xiqian listened to King Xiang's words and smiled gently: "This is a good thing, why does my father sigh?"

King Xiang was very helpless, and continued to speak: "Now the royal family does not have a woman of the right age and relatives, in order to win over the courtiers, the emperor can't avoid using the method of marriage to let us do our best, you and Miao Xuan have reached the age of leaving the cabinet, so the emperor intends to choose the two of you to marry, but your mother died not long ago, you ......"

Gu Xiqian naturally knew what King Xiang meant, when his parents died, his children had to keep filial piety, not to mention that Princess Xiang had passed away for less than a year.

"If you have to get married, why rush to get married at once, what does my father think?"

King Xiang wanted to speak and stopped, Gu Xiqian naturally knew that he had something to say, but before King Xiang could speak, Lin got up with a fake smile.

"That's the case, what the emperor means, is to marry you and Miao Xuan to the royal family, and the other to marry the prince of Yunnan, but ah, the marriage with the royal family can not be delayed, and the prince of Yunnan has just arrived in the imperial city, you can also put it on, Princess Xiang just passed away, I was thinking, the eldest lady will definitely not want to get married at this time, so I discussed with the prince, the eldest lady is married to the prince of Yunnan, and Miao Xuan, she will marry into the royal family, and she will be married to King Ping."

"King Ping?" Gu Xiqian knew that Gu Ye already had a wife, so who was this King Ping?

"This King Ping is the emperor's adopted son, Muchuan."

After Lin finished saying this name, Gu Xiqian suddenly felt like a sudden explosion in her brain, this name she had always remembered in her heart and hated it in her heart.

Mu Chuan, it was he who deceived her feelings and helped Prince Duan harm her relatives.

Gu Xi's thin lips pursed, thinking of the events of that night, her nails were white, clenched in the wide sleeves.

And the Lin family is chattering about this relationship.

"This Muchuan, although he is not the emperor's son, but he has made great contributions to the emperor and raised him by his side, and now he has won the title of King Ping, which is no different from other princes, but he has married Princess Nanqin before, but who made Princess Nanqin the daughter of the first emperor, and now Princess Nanqin is dead, and King Ping has no wife around him, and the emperor attaches great importance to this and his relatives, so he can't delay."

The Lin family smiled with a mask, but he was very satisfied with this King Ping, after Prince Duan ascended the throne, only Gu Ye and Muchuan made great contributions to the princes under him, and Gu Ye must be the future prince.

Although Muchuan is not his own, he was also raised by the new emperor, although this Muchuan betrayed the emperor, but the royal battle is like this, Miao Xuan will be Princess Ping if she marries in the past, and the rest of her life is better than staying in that small Jinju.

"Although my sister considers Coriander's filial piety, but Coriander's grandfather's house is in the imperial city, which is also the hometown of the princess, if you want to say who is the most suitable to marry King Ping, it is none other than Coriander, the princess is the daughter of a nobleman, and Coriander's identity is also compatible with King Ping."

The Fang clan couldn't get used to the Lin clan's attitude, and opened his mouth to King Xiang.

Lin glanced at Fang Shi dissatisfiedly, and then said in a sarcastic tone: "Now the Wei family is no longer valued by the emperor, and the identity of the eldest lady is not as noble as it used to be, besides, how can there be a reason for the mother to marry her daughter not long after her death, this is not filial piety, so what is wrong with the prince of Yunnan, I heard that he fought on the battlefield at a young age and conquered the surrounding small countries with countless contributions, but the emperor is now the most important person."
