Chapter 496: Two Branches
Bai Jinse was just taking advantage of the situation to provoke, but he didn't dare to really make enemies with Gu Fanghua.
You must know that Gu Fanghua is the person on the tip of the prince's heart, and he will definitely crown the six palaces in the future, and he will be favored by the emperor, so he can't be offended.
Yuan Yunwen had tears in her eyes and begged: "Cousin, I know that my status is low, and I don't dare to compete with Princess Mingzhu, so I bury it in my heart." But now, my grandmother has tried to kiss me several times, and I really don't want to do this, a treacherous person first. ”
"Wenwen, in fact, Xiao Yao doesn't have elders alive, as long as she opens her mouth, then your marriage will be done?"
Bai Jinse asked deliberately puzzled, Yuan Yunwen's eyelashes trembled, and tears rolled down. Choked up and said: "My aunt and grandmother know, but I am forced by the Queen Mother to speak out." can only delay on the grounds that Cousin Xiao is still in the filial piety period. ”
"How's that good?"
Bai Jinse guessed that there was no marriage at the beginning, so there was Princess Mingzhu and Gu Shinian Liaodong and their party. Now that the Lord of Fuling has said out of thin air that there is a marriage contract, I am afraid that it will be difficult to convince the public.
Yuan Yunwen looked around, and whispered a little embarrassed: "Can you ask my cousin to help me get the news out?" Mrs. Wang and the Queen Mother are handkerchiefs. ”
"This? Wenwen, you also know, after all, I am still the new daughter-in-law, and now the child in my belly does not know whether it is a man or a woman. If I say it rashly, I'm afraid that my grandmother will not be happy. ”
Bai Jinse originally had this intention, and told Mrs. Wang directly, but Wang Lang disagreed.
said that his grandmother had been friends with the queen mother for decades, and although he was loyal to the emperor and the prince, he didn't want to break the relationship between his grandmother and the queen mother.
After all, Empress Dowager Zhong is not an ordinary Empress Dowager, she used to be the Empress Regent and has mastered the lifeblood of the Great Zhou.
Yuan Yunwen's heart was cold, and she said helplessly: "Then what should I do?" ”
While asking people to serve Yuan Yunwen's face, Bai Jinse pretended to think about her and help her find a way.
"Wenwen, I think you only have two paths to go."
"Ask my cousin for advice."
Bai Jinse took Yuan Yunwen's hand and said softly: "First of all, although this gossip will attract gossip, public opinion is also the desire of the people. You don't have to cover this matter tightly, let out the wind, there are so many three religions and nine streams in the capital, you can do it yourself. ”
Yuan Yunwen originally had this intention, so she responded shyly: "Okay, I'll listen to my cousin." ”
"Secondly, you can't talk about this marriage when you meet people, you have to find a formal big occasion. If you want to make Empress Dowager Zhong unable to gag your mouth and let everyone know about this, when the time comes, the Lord of Fuling will be able to change it. ”
Bai Jinse felt that Empress Dowager Zhong's 60th birthday was a good opportunity.
Yuan Yunwen nodded and asked, "Thank you, cousin, is there any other way?" ”
"Also, you can't hide it anymore and show your talents. You have to build momentum first and tell everyone that you are worthy of Xiao Yao, you are both talented and beautiful. Princess Mingzhu, she is just rude. ”
Bai Jinse's thoughtful thinking actually coincided with what Yuan Yunwen thought.
"Well, I'll listen to my cousin."
Yuan Yunwen's well-behaved and trusting appearance, even if Bai Jinse knew that she was pretending, she felt happy.
"That's right, cousin. Do you know the person who was cut by a thousand knives at the entrance of the vegetable market in front of the country? I heard that he was plotting to murder Princess Mingzhu, but he was a little eunuch, what did he do to murder the princess? ”
Bai Jinse shook his head: "Don't talk about that, it's disgusting." Anyway, you have to know that Princess Mingzhu is the treasure in the palm of the Queen Mother, don't touch the stone with an egg. ”
Yuan Yunwen nodded, she had been worried, afraid that the eunuch would confess to the Lord of Fuling and involve herself.
However, the Lord of Fuling said that it couldn't be involved with her, and she could only believe it. It's a pity that Gu Fanghua had a big life and escaped.
Waiting for Yuan Yunwen to say goodbye and leave, Bai Jinse let out a long sigh and said, "This person is fate!" ”
"Young lady, it seems that the entire capital is still your best."
Qin'er's compliment provoked Yuan Yunwen's chuckle: "You girl, then tell me, where is my fate?" ”
"Look, young lady. The arrogant county lord of Changle at the beginning is long gone. The two young ladies of the Jiang family of Wuping Marquis are now one of them died early, and the other has been reduced to a concubine. There is also Miss Qing of the Pingguo Mansion, who is now married to King Kangjun, who is not out of the door, what is the difference between being imprisoned and being confined? ”
Qin'er's words made Bai Jinse feel proud, and said with a smile: "Other people's affairs, what do we care." ”
"Young lady, who can have your blessings. In this huge Guogong Mansion, in addition to the old man and the old lady, you and the young master are the two masters. The young master is not as sloppy as rumored outside, and he loves the young lady very much, which is your blessing. ”
Bai Jinse was proud in his heart, and glanced at Qin'er with satisfaction, naturally there was a reward.
Here, Gu Fanghua was talking to Ye Shisan: "I was poisoned this time, is there really no clue at all?" ”
"Back to the princess, there are indeed no clues outside the palace, there is a father-in-law in the palace, even if there is any news, it can't reach me."
Ye 13 did not hide it, and told it out.
Gu Fanghua wondered: "It's weird, then who wants to put me to death?" Don't guess, it won't be Brother Rong Ling's future concubine, what are they killing me for. ”
Ye 13 smiled: "Princess, I really can't find anyone else to suspect." ”
Gu Fanghua took a sip of soup, pursed her lips and smiled: "Maybe, it's Xiao Yao's peach blossom again, but I'm innocently affected." ”
Xiao Yao smiled helplessly, and said dotingly: "Don't worry, I am now pure and have few desires, and I don't go out on weekdays, where do I get the peach blossoms." Ye 13, you judge the theory. ”
"The princess has a point, and everything has a motive. If the princess is gone, the most obvious benefit is Marquis Xiao. ”
Ye Shisan is clearly retaliating against Xiao Yao's conspiracy just now.
Xiao Yao looked at Mingzhu and smiled, and didn't care, but he still explained seriously: "Mingzhu, thirteen is a strong word. What do I have to gain from, I don't have anyone else I like. ”
"However, there are people who like you!"
Gu Fanghua glanced at him and joked: "Maybe, someone wants me to die quietly, and then marry you." In the past, Fang Miaomiao, flowers were dying, weren't they all like this? ”
Xiao Yao could only smile bitterly, but Ye Shisan was thoughtful.
Seeing that Ye Shisan was deep in thought, Gu Fanghua asked curiously, "What's the matter?" What did you come up with? ”
"I think of a person who doesn't want the princess to marry the princess. She should also be suspicious, there were some settings before, I have to overturn them, and then find clues again. ”
After Ye Shisan finished speaking, Gu Fanghua hadn't guessed who it was, but Xiao Yao keenly felt that something was wrong, and he felt a sigh in his heart.
Thinking of his grandmother, who was a little abnormal after his son returned home, his heart sank.
