"Father, Erchen knows that you are unhappy when you talk about the matter of the Third Emperor Brother today, and Erchen doesn't dare to say another word, so he can only silently pray in his heart that the Third Emperor Brother can change his past mistakes as soon as possible, so that your father and emperor are happy in your heart. It's just that the son still has a sentence that he wants to ask for his father. ”

Xuanyuan Yan said, stared at the emperor deeply, and said with a hint of pleading: "Father, my son really likes the second lady of the Gu family, please beg my father, you will promise to let her marry her son!" As he spoke, he kowtowed heavily!

When the emperor heard this, his expression, which was already peaceful, immediately changed! He couldn't help but flick his sleeves angrily and said, "Didn't I tell you before? Don't ask for anything more about this! I can't marry both of Jinhou's daughters to you! You can only marry one! ”

"There, the minister marries Xi'er!" Xuanyuan Yan didn't want to think.

"Ridiculous!" When the emperor heard this, he was furious: "This is about to get married, and you are going to change the candidate for the crown princess?" Such a naïve and stupid request, Prince, where did you get the confidence to think that I would agree? I'm not going to mess around with you! ”

"Father!" Xuanyuan Yan listened to the emperor's refusal, and was not discouraged, he continued to plead bitterly: "Father! My son also knows that such a request is too ridiculous, and I also know Tong'er's feelings for me, but my son really likes Miss Guer! Without her, my son really doesn't know how to live......"

"Ridiculous! You are the crown prince! How can you say such a thing! The emperor glared at Xuanyuan Yan fiercely and said, "If you continue like this, I really have to wonder if my decision to make you the crown prince was correct in the first place." ”

Xuanyuan Yan was trying his best to persuade the emperor, but when he heard this, he froze.

"Father...... You, you're kidding, right? It was a long time before Xuanyuan Yan found her voice, but it didn't seem to be her voice that was already trembling. Originally, he was kneeling on the ground upright, but at the moment he was in a shaky posture.

When the emperor saw his appearance, he snorted coldly in his heart: It's really useless! It was just a tentative word, and it scared him like this?

"When have I ever joked?" The emperor said meaningfully: "Don't say anything more, it is absolutely impossible for me to marry Second Miss Gu to you as a side concubine, you will die of this heart!" ”

"Father!" Xuanyuan Yan let out a hoarse shout, his face full of despair.

But the emperor didn't want to pay attention to him at all, and only waved his hand and said, "Prince, don't say it again, otherwise I will really have to think about what I just said." ”

Xuanyuan Yan closed his mouth violently, unable to utter a word.

Gao Gonggong raised his eyelids and glanced at him quickly, lowered his head again, and sighed heavily in his heart: Prince, Prince, you will really push yourself to death!

but

After all, the crown prince still did not completely disappoint the emperor, and when he heard the sentence 'I have to consider the sentence just now', he immediately calmed down and stopped being as crazy as he was just now.

I haven't let the woman lose her reason, and she doesn't care about anything. When the emperor saw such a prince, his eyes finally showed a hint of relief. He waved his hand. Said: "Okay, you stand down!" ”

When Xuanyuan Yan heard this, he raised his head and glanced at the emperor sitting on the high seat, seeing that his face was still expressionless, and he did not have the slightest soft-hearted attitude, he finally knew that his father would not agree to him about this matter no matter what.

He couldn't help but be heartbroken.

Seeing that the crown prince did not move, Gonggong Gao immediately reminded in a low voice: "Your Highness? It's time for you to go back. "The previous page is years old.

Xuanyuan Yan's heart froze, and he looked up at the emperor again, and saw that he was closing his eyes and recuperating with his head supported by his arm, looking like he was waiting for him to go out, and he finally died. He bent down and kowtowed heavily to the emperor, got up and retreated.

When he left, the emperor immediately opened his eyes, sighed heavily and said to Gao Gonggong on the side: "This one by one, why don't you know how to let me save snacks?" Where has all this filial piety gone? ”

"Your Majesty, the crown prince is just a little more anxious, and he doesn't have any bad intentions. Why should you bother with him? Gao Gonggong smiled and said: "He just likes the second lady of the Gu family even more......"

"Humph! He doesn't like the second child of the Gu family! The emperor listened to the persuasion of Gonggong Gao, but he did not buy it as usual, and still said angrily: "Don't you know when I don't know? He was afraid that I would marry the second child of the Gu family to another prince! In this way, Jinhou will remain neutral even if he does not maintain his neutrality, and he will be missing an arm, isn't he? ”

When Gonggong Gao heard this, he hurriedly bowed his head and said, "Your Majesty, these old slaves really don't understand ......."

The emperor glanced at him and said, "That's it, you stay in this deep palace all day long, and you don't go out and walk around." Where do you know that? I asked you in vain. ”

Gao Gonggong smiled and didn't speak.

"But the prince is really right, Xuanyuan Yu, it's time to release it." The emperor said slowly: "This child, whose temperament is also quite stable, I don't know how to make such a big deal this time, and he stayed in the imperial tomb for so many days." It's time for him to reflect on it, too. ”

"The emperor is generous and benevolent, and he is really blessed not to worry about His Royal Highness the Third Prince." Gao Gonggong immediately said with a smile.

When the emperor heard this, he immediately pursed his lips: "Why did you say such a thing?" I know I don't like to hear this! That being said, there wasn't much anger on his face.

Gao Gonggong smiled and lightly scratched the words on his cheek. said: "Oh, the old slave said the wrong thing again." ”

"Xuanyuan Yu, this child has never married the princess, and now it's time to stand." The emperor suddenly said something without a head,

After speaking, he turned his head and looked at Gao Gonggong fairly: "You said that the second girl of the Jinhou family promised Yu'er to be the princess, how about it?" ”

When Gonggong Gao heard this, he was stunned for a moment, but after all, he was a person who reacted quickly, and almost as soon as the emperor's words fell, he responded with a smile: "Your Majesty, these three princes are heroic and dashing, and the second miss is as beautiful as a flower, it is really a perfect match!" ”

"I think so, too." When the emperor heard this, he immediately nodded. But as soon as the words fell, his brows furrowed again: "The big girl of the Gu family, I have seen it a lot of times, but these two girls, I don't seem to have seen them all these years?" ”

When Gonggong Gao heard this, he immediately asked, "Then Your Majesty, do you want to ......?"

A shallow smile suddenly appeared on the corner of the emperor's lips.

……

When the emperor's decree was conveyed to the Jinye Mansion, Gu Ruoxi was eating the newly made plum blossom cake in the house, and was stunned for a moment when he heard the words: "You mean, the emperor's father-in-law personally came to the Hou Mansion to announce the decree and invite me into the palace?" ”

"Yes, Miss!" Mingxiang panted and said: "The people have already arrived at the front door and dismounted, the Hou Ye and Mrs. have already sent people to this side, and the slave and maid are trotting all the way back." ”

"Thank you for your hard work." Gu Ruoxi said, as she spoke, she put down the plum blossom cake that she had bitten half in her hand, got up and said, "Liuli, come in and help me change my clothes, by the way, the rest of the pastries are eaten by a few of you, and it won't taste good if it's cold." With that, he went into the inner room.

Liuli immediately followed.

Jin Se and the others all had worried expressions on their faces, no one knew what the emperor was doing when he invited the young lady into the palace at this time, could it be that he had already agreed to the prince's request to make their young lady a side concubine? Everyone is nervous, where can they eat pastries?

A quarter of an hour later, when Gu Ruoxi came out of the room refreshed, she saw that the pastries on the table had not moved, and her face sank.

When Jin Se saw this, he hurriedly picked up the plate and stuffed a piece in everyone's hands.

There was no time to delay here, Gu Ruoxi sighed heavily, took Liuli's arm and slowly went out, and everyone sent them to the door.

When he came to the front hall, everyone was there, and Jin Yehou greeted Gu Ruoxi enthusiastically and said, "Xi'er, are you here?" Come here! ”

Mrs. Jinye Hou's gaze swept coldly over Gu Ruoxi's body, and her eyes were gloomy.

Gu Yuetong pretended to be calm, but the anxiety between her eyebrows still betrayed her expression. Especially when he saw Gu Ruoxi, there was a fierce aura in his eyes that he wanted to destroy it, and he couldn't hide it.

In this room, there is only one person who is really worried about him, but because of the presence of Father-in-law Gao, he can only pretend that nothing happened.

"Miss Gu Er, the emperor heard that the courtyard where you live is full of plum trees, I think you must be a person who likes to appreciate plum blossoms, and it just so happens that the plum blossoms near the Qianqing Palace have also bloomed recently, and the emperor wants to invite you

Go to the palace to enjoy the plum blossoms, and see if the plum blossoms in the palace are good, or the Hou Mansion is good. Gao Gonggong said with a smile.

"The courtiers have seen the high father-in-law." Gu Ruoxi was blessed first, and then said slowly: "The plum blossoms in the Qianqing Palace are naturally more beautiful than the flowers in the courtyard of the courtiers, even if they don't need to be compared, the result is still there." ”

"Second Miss is polite, the famous flowers still need to be rewarded, you will go to the palace with our family?" Gao Gonggong said with a smile.

"It's better to be respectful than to obey." Gu Ruoxi hurriedly said. Although she was also very worried in her heart, she didn't know what kind of wind the emperor sent to summon her into the palace, but at this moment, she could only answer like this.

There is no need to express the expressions on the faces of the people of the Gu family one by one, anyway, there are jealousy, suspicion, and resentment. Only Jinye Hou, he called Gonggong Gao aside and asked quietly: "Father-in-law, when the emperor invited my little daughter, did he say anything?" As he spoke, he hurriedly gave the housekeeper on the side a look.

The housekeeper understood and hurriedly handed over a purse.

Gao Gonggong didn't refuse, stretched out his hand to take it, and said with a smile: "Congratulations to Master Hou!" Today is a great day! ”

After saying only that, he stopped saying it.

Who is Jinye Hou, he immediately guessed the meaning of Gao Gonggong's words, and his face changed suddenly.

The emperor wants to give Xi'er a marriage? Plum blossom viewing is just a pretense?

Could it be that the prince is ......

Jin Yehou's heart hung up, and he hurriedly pulled Gao Gong and said, "Father-in-law, is there no room for recovery in this matter?" ”

"What did Master Hou say! The emperor just summoned the second lady into the palace to enjoy the plum blossoms. Father-in-law Gao said with a smile: "The second lady has grown so big in the Hou Mansion, but the emperor has not seen her a few times, really just to see her, why should the Hou Ye worry?" ”

"But ......"

Jinye Hou still wanted to ask, but Gonggong Gao waved his hand and said: "Master Hou, I can't stay any longer, the emperor should be in a hurry, by the way, the third prince has been punished to the imperial tomb for several days, and the emperor seems to be thinking about him." After that, he no longer paid attention to Jinye Hou, turned to Gu Ruoxi and said, "Second Miss, please?" The carriage is waiting outside the Fumen Gate, and there are all kinds of pastries on the stove, so you don't have to prepare anything. ”

"There is Father-in-law Lao." Gu Ruoxi said, blessed his body again, glanced back at Jinye Hou, and followed behind Gao Gonggong and walked out, and everyone in the Gu family watched them leave intently.

When the little maid at the gate reported that the person had gotten into the carriage and left, Mrs. Jinye Hou couldn't wait to walk up to her husband and asked eagerly: "Master Hou!" What did the emperor do when he summoned Xi'er into the palace? ”

"How do you know?" Jin Yehou said impatiently: "Madam, now that Gonggong Gao has left, you can go back to Jinghong Courtyard." ”

Originally, Mrs. Jinye Hou was confined, but today because of the entrance of Gonggong Gao, Jinye Hou made an exception to let her appear in front of everyone. Now that Father-in-law Gao is gone, she should naturally go back

Continue to reflect.

"Master Hou!" Mrs. Jinye Hou listened to her husband's words, her face changed suddenly, and a strong grievance appeared.

Jin Yehou is also a mess in his heart, and he can't figure out his thoughts, where is there any kung fu to care about her? At that moment, he was about to scold a few more words, when he suddenly heard his eldest daughter shouting in a questioning tone: "Dad! You've locked up your mother for these days, so it's time to release it, right? Where is the reason to hand over the middle feed to an aunt to manage, but let the lady of the house sit idle? ”

Jinye Hou listened to this crisp question, his face sank, he turned around slowly, and saw that his eldest daughter was like a scrappy little rooster, staring at himself with her head held high and not showing weakness, he couldn't help but laugh angrily: "What do you know? How dare you mess around here? Did you talk to your father like that? ”

This is a very harsh statement.

Gu Yuetong had never heard her father speak to her in such a tone, her eyes immediately turned red, and seeing that tears were about to pour like a downpour, Jin Yehou was very impatient and said: "You don't have to worry about adult affairs, just take care of yourself!" ”

"Daddy!" Gu Yuetong was about to say more, but Mrs. Jinye Hou on the side suddenly shouted: "Tong'er! Shut up! ”

Gu Yuetong received her mother's stern eyes, and closed her mouth immediately, but her face was full of unconvinced.

Mrs. Jinye Hou turned around and faced her husband and said, "Master Hou, Tong'er is reckless today, it's the concubine's fault, the concubine will discipline her well, don't be angry." ”

"It's time for you to discipline her." Jin Ye Hou looked at Gu Yuetong and sighed and said: "I don't know who this arrogant and reckless personality is, and when I enter the palace in the future, when she hits a wall in the future, if you have kung fu, you can discipline her well!" You don't have to worry about it for the time being, just take care of the dowry and other matters, and I can rest assured. ”

These words, although he reiterated that he did not let Mrs. Jinye Hou take charge of Zhongyu, he finally handed over all the matters of Gu Yuetong's marriage to her. This was originally something that Mrs. Jinye Hou had been thinking about for a long time, and she was naturally overjoyed when she heard this: "Yes, Master Hou, the concubine will definitely take care of all this!" ”

"You're her mother, and I'm sure you'll do your best." Jin Ye Hou said, he didn't look at Gu Yuetong, and he didn't mean to explain, he turned around and strode out.

Gu Yuetong couldn't help but be angry in her heart, since when did her father be so indifferent to them! He probably only has that Gu Ruoxi in his heart, right? Thinking about it, she wanted to rush out and reason with her father, but was grabbed by Mrs. Kamino Hou. Not only that, but even his mouth was covered by his mother.

It wasn't until Jinye Hou disappeared that Mrs. Jinye Hou let go of Gu Yuetong and said before she roared: "Tong'er! Did you know that you have a big disaster today? ”

Gu Yuetong was stunned.

Gu Xiaoye from just now

Since then, he has been watching all this coldly, and it was not until this moment that he slowly walked over and said, "Tong'er! What my mother said is true, if you didn't question your father just now, I'm afraid that in a few days, my mother's ban will be lifted, but unfortunately, you are so noisy, my mother doesn't know when she will have another chance. ”

"Really, really?" When Gu Yuetong heard this, her face suddenly turned pale, and her eyes were filled with remorse.

Jinye Houren sighed and said: "That's it, since the matter has happened, it's useless to worry about it, let's go back quickly!" How exactly should the total be done? ”

These words immediately freed Gu Yuetong from her remorseful mood, and her thoughts suddenly returned to the matter of Gu Ruoxi being accepted into the palace by Gonggong Gao just now, she nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, yes!" This is the most important thing! ”

When Mrs. Jinye Hou heard this, she turned around and glanced at her son Gu Xiaoye, and both of them saw a deep worry in each other's eyes.

I don't know how to adapt, I can't see the overall situation, I have an impatient temperament, and my eyes are empty, is it really a good thing for Gu Yuetong to marry into the East Palace?

Mrs. Jinye Hou doesn't know, but this is the only hope she has worked hard for so many years, she didn't become the crown princess back then, her daughter must be! As for the rest, she couldn't care about it for the time being.

Although the thoughts in Gu Xiaoye's heart are not so complicated, they are almost the same as their mother.

My sister must be the crown princess! And to gain a foothold in the palace, otherwise, his future, his future will be ruined!

The mother and son returned to the Jinghong Courtyard, and as soon as they sat down, Gu Yuetong couldn't wait to ask.
