Chapter 416 Breaking the siege has many intentions since ancient times
Gu Feiyan said: "My Majesty, don't be surprised. The little woman is here to accompany you. But I vaguely remember if I said something strange yesterday? Oops, damn it, you said I forgot. ”
"It's nothing, you don't have to think about it if you can't remember it. Pack up your things. Ming Xuanze said, seeing Gu Feiyan looking at him with an inquiring gaze, and then said lightly: "Now that the murder case has been solved, we don't need to stay here for a little longer." That person's whereabouts are not in a hurry, so pack up your things and go back to Beijing today. ”
"Okay, let's call Ye Xinlan with us later." Gu Feiyan looked at Ming Xuanze, and said with a somewhat calm face: "She has also helped a lot along the way." After all, without her, I'm afraid we wouldn't be here. ”
Ming Xuanze put down the silk book in his hand and stared at Gu Feiyan for a while, then turned his gaze back to the silk book and stopped talking.
After the homicide case was solved, Ming Xuanze and the three of them did not stay here longer, and left for Beijing on the same day.
"Concubine Nianchen, you have made a contribution to solving the case, but because of the exposure of this matter, there has been a lot of commotion among the people. I'm afraid that I will be dismissed for rewarding an official career, but I still come forward to reward you with a box of silver taels, although the amount is also two hundred taels. Your Majesty, what do you think? The Queen Mother gave Gu Feiyan a painless reward and said.
"It's useless and he, this reward is as good as the retainers want." Ming Xuanze calmly accepted the reward from the emperor and said.
"Who will be convinced like this.. Isn't it because of your high position and power to bully people too much?"
And Gu Feiyan on the side of Ming Xuanze in the main hall was a little unhappy, and muttered a few words softly, saying. After all, Ming Xuanze failed to get the reward the previous few times, especially when he was dealing with the plague in Beicheng. Now that Ming Xuanze is in this matter, he has eliminated a major hidden danger for the people and eradicated a major hidden danger for the country, but he can only suffer the cold eyes of the Queen Mother.
"Since Concubine Chen is not convinced, it is better to hold it in her stomach honestly. lest any further trouble arise. A cold voice came into his curtain, and Gu Feiyan turned his head sideways, it was Lu Chuxuan with an unkind face.
"It shouldn't be the turn of the idlers to talk about this matter here, right?" Gu Feiyan said with a chuckle.
"Indeed. After all, I am now pregnant, and the little prince will be able to give birth to his father after a few months. There's no need to dwell on your old memories here. Lu Chuxuan snorted coldly and said.
Listening to Lu Chuxuan's words, Gu Feiyan was suddenly surprised.
Unexpectedly, Lu Chuxuan was pregnant again.
"So, Pearl, why do I have to go to that lady's party?"
The bronze mirror reflected the appearance of the maids in the palace tidying up the cloud temples for Gu Feiyan, but Gu Feiyan's expression was a little dissatisfied and pouted, and continued.
"Even if I am the wife of the palace, I have that kung fu to study and practice martial arts, I haven't learned the internal skills that His Majesty taught me before, why do I want to go to the capital to have fun with those noble ladies, I don't think I am a noble lady."
After a pause, Gu Feiyan then added.
"What's more, if you have to have a banquet with Ye Xinlan and Lu Chuxuan, I am afraid that I will be laughed at by those sisters on the other side again. I really don't want to go. ”
"But even if you don't want to go, they'll chew those tongues behind their backs. And you are also the favorite concubine in the palace, and your status is above that Lu Chuxuan. In front of you, Ye Xinlan is even more of a concubine who has been demoted. The women were happy to say that there was nothing to be afraid of. But after all, you can't afford not to go. ”
"Niangniang, you think, if you don't go, the noble girl's feast represents our majesty's noble daughter, isn't it only Ye Xinlan? If she says something sarcastic and sarcastic about you that day, she will insult your innocence. Or distort the truth and tell the world that she is the mistress of the palace. If this is spread out, even if you are slandered, Madame, we will not be happy with the maids and maids who support you in the house. ”
Zhu'er said slowly.
"That's right. Then I have to sacrifice my life to accompany the gentleman. Gu Feiyan looked at his appearance in the bronze mirror and nodded, and nodded with satisfaction. Suddenly, his face became strange, and he turned his head to look at Zhu'er and said, "No, Ming Xuanze doesn't seem to care about this kind of thing at all, so why should I go." Am I being tricked by you? ”
At the gathering of noble ladies in the capital, Ye Xinlan and Lu Chuxuan formed a group one after another, and bought off many high-ranking ladies who were not accustomed to Gu Feiyan in private in advance, and unified their voices, they would definitely squeeze out and isolate her that day, she looked at her coldly.
As a result, Gu Feiyan became the target of the women who partnered to exclude and squeeze out the cold among the nobles present, sitting alone with a small wine and eating side dishes, and did not talk to the surrounding concubines and wives, which looked very strange.
Seeing that Gu Feiyan's face did not waver because of this, and he didn't pay attention to it at all, he suddenly felt that it was a little insufficient, and wanted to add more fire to it and put more articles on it, so he said in front of all the nobles.
"Sisters, you say, these noble ladies are basically people with their own children. One of my concubines is already pregnant for the second time. But some women have been married to the palace for so long, and they are still a favorite concubine. Until now, there is no movement in the stomach, but he still has to treat others like a son. Is it like a hen that can't lay eggs? After speaking, Gu Feiyan glanced at Gu Feiyan with his peripheral vision, and motioned to all the nobles present and said, "Concubine Chen, do you feel the same way as me?" ”
Gu Feiyan didn't want to deal with Lu Chuxuan, but when he saw that the other party was so blatantly provoking him today, he raised his eyebrows. was going to fight Lu Chuxuan to the end, but just wanted to say something to refuse, but was interrupted by another noblewoman.
"What Concubine Xuan said is very true. But the hen who can't lay eggs has lost the duty of the hen, if the head of the house loves the hen, and holds the hen in the palm of his hand with the old love, it is also the blessing of the hen. But even if some hens that lay eggs have been in the courtyard of the head of the house for so long, the head of the house has no concern for the old love, and his status can only be on an equal footing with the female master chicken of the neighboring country. What's more, the chicken is still a small one, wouldn't it be more ridiculous and generous to say it? ”
As soon as Lu Chuxuan heard it, she knew that this woman who enthusiastically helped Gu Feiyan to relieve the siege, Fang Cai's words were referring to her Lu Chuxuan's fact that she could only sit on an equal footing with the county lord and concubine of the neighboring country in the palace, and her face suddenly became gloomy and she stopped squeaking.
