Gao Jingluo came to Fushou Zhai, at this time it was the time for Mrs. Gao to recite the Buddha, Mother Wang took Gao Jingluo to the main hall and sat down, poured tea, and went in to invite the old lady.

Wang's mother came to Hongxiao's side and whispered in a low voice, Hongxiao nodded slightly, signaling Wang's mother to withdraw.

"Old lady, the lord has arrived." Hongxiao leaned down and whispered in the ear of the old lady.

Old Madam Gao opened her eyes slightly, one hand was stretched out in the air, and Hongxiao hurriedly stepped forward to pick up the old lady.

The old lady came out of the inner room with the help of Hongxiao.

"Mother, I wonder what you're looking for me?" Gao Jing got up slightly and thought that Mrs. Gao had made a compilation.

"Why is it not going well for the DPRK today?" Old Madam Gao looked at Gao Jingluo with a gloomy face, and a sad face hung all over her face.

"Hey, it's not a big deal, it's just that this Lan Taishi is playing the right prince." Gao Jing scribbled a few words.

After all, Mrs. Gao is a woman who has lived in the mansion since she was a child, and it is common for the power competition in the court to establish a prince and seize the heir, so she can understand very much about the Lan family's eagerness to establish a prince, after all, the world of the harem today is in the hands of Lan Qinwan, although she is not a queen yet, but she actually holds a lot of power.

"After all, the affairs of the DPRK and China are outsiders, so let's discuss the affairs of our family first." Old Madam Gao smiled.

"What's going on in our house?" Gao Jing's eyes widened slightly, and he secretly panicked in his heart, could it be that something happened to Gao Weihu.

The more anxious the Lan Taishi in the palace was to establish the prince, the more Gao Jingluo attached more importance to Gao Wei Lake, and now he felt that Gao Wei Lake was the only killer weapon of the Gao family that could compete with the Lan family, and Beitang Jinyu now had a good impression of Gao Wei Lake that everyone knew. It's just that this layer of window paper hasn't been pierced yet.

Old Madam Gao smiled even more kindly.

"It's not your business, so many things have happened in our Gaofu recently, none of them are auspicious, it's better to take advantage of this time to choose a few concubines for you, Chong Chongxi, and our Gaofu is not very prosperous now, and there are still not many heirs, so..."

Gao Jingluo knew what Mrs. Gao meant very well, after Zhou's death, Gao Jingluo threw himself on the court, and he didn't have the impulse to Zhou, and for a while, several ladies were more or less snubbed.

"The son-in-law obeys his mother's arrangement." Gao Jingluo didn't want the Gao family's heirs to prosper, so he nodded with a smile.

"Well, since you have no opinion, I'll tell you directly, a few days ago, Prime Minister Liu and his wife Ma came to visit the master, but you didn't return after going out for a few days, Prime Minister Liu wanted to marry Liu Mingyue, the daughter of the Liu family, into our house." The old lady looked at Gao Jingluo with a smile.

The forces of the DPRK and China are secretly divided into three forces, and Prime Minister Liu Cheng has always been hesitant and has never stood in line, why did he suddenly want to make friends with the Gao family, and even rushed to marry his daughter into the Gao Mansion as a concubine. Prime Minister Liu Cheng is quite low-key in the DPRK and China, and rarely participates in the open and secret struggle between the three forces, but not participating does not mean that he will not be affected, after all, the government and the opposition have gradually stabilized since Beitang Jinyu ascended the throne.

In the harem, although the daughter of the Lan family is in charge of the harem, Lan Qinwan's fall from grace is a well-known thing, and Gaofu's Gao Weihu is a dark horse that has burst in.

Choosing a side at this time is very important for the future development of the government and the opposition.

Gao Jingluo had seen the young lady of the Liu family once at the chrysanthemum banquet, but he didn't leave a deep impression on him, but Gao Jingluo vaguely remembered that it was also a gentle and delicate beauty, if he accepted Liu Mingyue as a concubine, his power in the court would also increase, and it would definitely kill two birds with one stone.

"Then it's better to choose a day than to hit the day, and let Gao Bo send the dowry gift today." The corners of Gao Jingluo's mouth rose slightly, and he nodded with satisfaction.

Old Madam Gao nodded with satisfaction.

In the afternoon, the housekeeper Gao Bo brought a thousand taels of silver, a thousand pieces of brocade silk, jade agate, and various jewelry brocade boxes, adding up to a total of ten full boxes, and sent them to Prime Minister Liu Cheng's house.

Prime Minister Liu Cheng ordered someone to give a bag to every family member who gave a dowry gift, and the bag contained a heavy amount of silver, which was enough for a family's salary for a year. Prime Minister Liu Cheng also prepared a few tables of sumptuous wine and food, instructed the housekeeper to entertain the team that came to give the dowry, and then turned to the inner room.

"Dad, how can you marry me without my consent!" A girl with delicate eyebrows and a voice like a warbler shouted angrily at Prime Minister Liu Cheng.

This person is Liu Mingyue, the daughter of Prime Minister Liu Cheng, Liu Mingyue was born on the night of the fifteenth, so he was named Mingyue, which means the same as the moon. It is also quite exquisite, a pair of willow moon curved eyebrows, small lips, a pair of bright eyes like autumn water, as if they can speak, smart and expressive, the waist is extraordinarily slender, graceful and beautiful, Chu Chu moving.

"What's wrong with marrying Master Sima!" Prime Minister Liu hurriedly pulled Liu Mingyue's slender hand.

Liu Mingyue frowned and slapped Prime Minister Liu's hand away.

"Okay? Okay, why don't you get married? Why do you have to marry me! Liu Mingyue pouted with a look of displeasure and sat down.

"The order of your parents, the words of the matchmaker, how can you be allowed to mess around!" Although Prime Minister Liu Cheng's voice was slightly fierce, his face was full of smiles. On weekdays, Prime Minister Liu Cheng's arrogance and indulgence Liu Mingyue are famous, and she has cherished Liu Mingyue as an eyeball since she was a child, no matter when she is, she is always loving this daughter.

"Mother, you take care of your father!" Liu Mingyue said to Ma Shijiao.

"You girl, it's all your father's habit of you, and now you're so disobedient." Ma looked at Liu Mingyue and said with a smile.

"Mother, my daughter still wants to be by your side and her father! I don't want to marry into any Sima Mansion at all, and besides, I haven't seen him before, so why do you have to let me marry him! Liu Mingyue grabbed Prime Minister Liu's arm and shook it back and forth.

"Yue'er, come to my mother's side!" Ma also has a pair of beautiful eyes like autumn water, but they are slightly inferior to Liu Mingyue's, but they have a little more sense of emptiness.

Liu Mingyue moved lightly to Ma's side, and the Jinpa in her hand kept holding it in her hand.

Ma stood up and gently tucked the broken hair on the side of Liu Mingyue's sideburns behind his ears, and there were ripples in his eyes.

"In the future, you are not by your mother's side, you have to keep an eye on everything, the back house of Gaofu is not as simple as our Liu Mansion, you must be careful everywhere about the things that you deceive and frame each other, if there is anything, you must let them come back to report, don't force yourself." Saying that, Ma took Liu Minyue's whole person into his arms, and the mother and daughter sobbed like tears.

Prime Minister Liu Cheng also wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with the placket of his clothes.

Ma patted Liu Mingyue's head lightly.

"Remember, don't provoke the second lady of the Gao family!"
