Gu Xiaoye said expressionlessly: "Father, why do you always question the child, why don't you order Aunt Xu to bring Xue Yang up and ask him what he saw, he was beaten unconscious by the little sister's maid?" When Jinye Hou heard this, he was stunned, and Aunt Xu on the side said slowly: "Master Hou, do you still need to say this?" If the concubine's courtyard sneaks into the small servant or the guard, the concubine will be desperate to knock out first! Otherwise, would you want him to sneak into the house? The world is still ahead! When the time comes, if you see a foreign man coming out of the second lady's house, the second miss will not be able to say clearly if she falls into the Yellow River! ”

"You're right!" Jin Ye Hou nodded again and again, but turned around and glared at Gu Xiaoye hatefully.

Aunt Xu smiled lightly, and then said, "Master Hou, the guard concubine has also been interrogated. It's nothing more than that he saw a foreign man in the second lady's house or something, but isn't he a foreign man himself? Or sneak in! Since the prince sent a message and asked Xue Yang to come up to confront him, then the concubine sent someone to bring Xue Yang up. ”

"Nope! I want to know how that slut will slander Xi'er. Why listen to his foul language? Directly beat the stick to death! Jin Ye Hou said mercilessly.

When Aunt Xu heard this, she couldn't help but be taken aback, but she nodded very quickly: "Yes, Master Hou!" ”

When Gu Xiaoye heard this, he was immediately shocked, and couldn't help shouting: "Father! Aren't you disregarding human life by doing this? Xue Yang didn't do anything, just walked around the back door of Zhiyu Courtyard......"

"Oh? The prince originally knew that Xue Yang had gone to the back door of Zhiyu Courtyard? Even know what he does? Aunt Xu smiled slightly and said.

"Shut up!" When Gu Xiaoye heard this, she turned her head viciously and glared at Aunt Xu angrily: "I'm talking to my father, what are you talking to a lowly aunt!" ”

Aunt Xu heard this. Her face changed dramatically, her eyes slowly turned red, and she sat there without speaking for a long time.

"Bastard! Did you talk to her like that? No matter what she is, she is also the person in my room, and she is your elder according to her generation! Seeing that Aunt Xu was almost forty years old, and was so insulted by a hairy boy, Jin Yehou couldn't bear it at all, so she stood up and kicked Gu Xiaoye fiercely.

This kick has nothing to do with anything else, it's just that Jin Hou is really disgusted with his unruliness.

Gu Xiaoye was kicked to the ground, but he got up and said stiffly: "Father! Is there something wrong with what the child said? She is just a concubine, why should she ask her son-in-law to invite her leaves? It's not her turn to call the shots in my affairs! ”

"It's against you? I handed over the power of the family to Aunt Xu, and everything that happened in the entire Hou Mansion was under her control! You, of course, can manage it! Jin Ye Hou said angrily at Gu Xiaoye.

When Gu Xiaoye heard this, a sneer appeared on his face: "Father, what qualifications do you have to teach me?" You let an aunt take charge of the house, but you will be eight years old

Mrs. Yipinhou went to the nunnery to cultivate, and you are not afraid that outsiders will laugh at you for spoiling your concubine and killing your wife! ”

Jinye waited for the smoke of these words, he couldn't control himself anymore, and rushed up and kicked Gu Xiaoye several times!

"Where did you hear that? Do you still dare to teach me a lesson? Don't think I don't know about the things you secretly conspired with your mother! Tell you! It's already light to send it to the nunnery, if you dare to be verbose, I'll just leave Ding's! Jin Ye Hou scolded and beat at the same time, because he hated it in his heart, so he hit it quite hard, and in an instant, Gu Xiaoye was beaten by him and his head was bleeding.

But even so, Gu Xiaoye never relented at all, and after hearing these words, he said sarcastically: "Father, don't say it so high-sounding!" You wanted to divorce my mother more than ten years ago, right? It's just that the slut is dead! She's dead! You have no reason to divorce your wife, so my mother has been sitting in the seat of Mrs. Hou for so many years, yes or no? “

"Where did you hear that?" When Kazuha Hou heard this, his face turned pale. The movements of his subordinates couldn't help but pause slightly.

Gu Xiaoye took this opportunity to jump up from the ground, he stood straight in front of Jinye Hou, his head was injured, but the corners of his mouth almost grinned at the back of his head, just that smile, how sarcastic he looked.

"Father! Don't care where I hear it! I just wanted to tell you! If you want to abandon my mother in this life, it's impossible! You'd better get her back! ”

When he said the last sentence, there was suddenly a hint of coldness in Gu Xiaoye's voice.

"Then I'll tell you the same, no, but, yes!" Jin Ye Hou stepped forward and slapped Gu Xiaoye violently, the force was so great that he directly knocked him to the ground again, the dignified Hou Ye, he didn't even need the guards to make a move, just himself, he beat Gu Xiaoye like this, doesn't this show how disgusted he is with this son in his heart?

Gu Xiaoye's father and son quarreled fiercely, and finally developed into a big fight, this scene Aunt Xu has been standing quietly aside, not sad or happy on her face, nor moving forward.

She was a truly intelligent woman.

Jin Ye Hou was tired, so he stopped panting, Gu Xiaoye's heart was in pain, and he couldn't speak, the father and son, one standing, the other lying, all glared at each other viciously, and the flames in their eyes seemed to burn each other out.

After a long time, the anger in Jinye Hou's heart subsided a little, he glanced at Gu Xiaoye expressionlessly, turned to the guards and ordered, "Someone!" Pull the son down! Without an order, you are not allowed to leave the yard for a month! ”

"Daddy! What else are you going to do but put me under house arrest? Gu Xiaoye wiped the blood on the corner of her mouth, and glanced at her father with a mocking face, but she slowly got up from the ground.

At this moment, Aunt Xu stood there, and I don't know why she suddenly felt that the pair in front of her was not

Father and son, but enemies.

"Stay!" It is also very difficult to beat people, not to mention that Gu Xiaoye is stubborn, and Jin Yehou has long lost the patience to continue talking to him, so he immediately turned his head when he heard this, and did not look at Gu Xiaoye again.

Gu Xiaoye never turned his head to look at his father, just limped out of the study under the escort of two guards. The name is the garbage.

When I came, I was in high spirits, but when I went back, I was covered with scars.

No, maybe even my heart is broken.

In the study, Aunt Xu walked to Jinye Hou's side, carefully helped him sit down on the chair, and poured him a cup of tea to drink: "Master Hou, you dissipate your anger." ”

For the scene just now, she didn't ask or say a word.

Jin Yehou just roared for a long time, angry and angry, at this time it was already angry seven orifices of smoke, Wen Yan took the teacup and drank it all, but sighed: "This unfilial son, I am really angry!" ”

"Master Hou, don't think too pessimistic, everything will be fine." Aunt Xu's voice is soft, with her own style, not to mention that she is old, although she does not have the bright taste of a young girl, but she has the charm of a mature woman, and she knows what to say, what to persuade, Jin Yehou was served by her, and suddenly felt that her heart was up.

"I'll borrow your good words!" Jinye Hou said, but stood up and said, "You go back first!" I'm going to go to Xi'er to have a look, and I don't know if she's sad now. ”

"Master Hou, this matter may not have alarmed the second lady." Aunt Xu smiled slightly and said, "And the concubine looks at Amber's clever and clever girl, I don't think I will tell the second lady about it, Master Hou, are you sure you want to go?" ”

When Jinye Hou heard this, he was taken aback at first, but soon a smile appeared on his face: "This matter didn't alarm Xi'er, that's the best thing!" Well, I won't visit her today, and I'll talk about it tomorrow. ”

"That's what Master Hou said." Aunt Xu smiled slightly.

Jin Ye Hou sat down on the chair again, glanced at Aunt Xu, and suddenly asked, "How is Cheng Ye's homework now?" ”

Jin Ye Hou has not asked the second young master Gu Chengye for eight hundred years, and at this time, he suddenly mentioned it, which really made Aunt Xu feel flattered, she suppressed the ecstasy in her heart, smiled lightly, and said: "Fortunately, he borrowed to live in the academy, and he will come back during the New Year in a year, and this year will be soon." ”

"Really? How many days are left? Kazuha asked, "I'll send someone to pick him up?" ”

When Aunt Xu heard this, her heart was even more happy, but in the face of Jinye Hou's concern, she shook her head and said, "Master Hou, it's still not necessary!" Chengye comes back by himself every year, and no one picks him up, this kid has already developed a habit, Master Hou, don't let the extravagance of those noble sons infect Chengye, right? You sent someone to pick him up this year,

If he doesn't send it next year, he will be sad, and the concubine would rather come back by himself. ”

When Jin Ye Hou heard this, he originally wanted to refute Aunt Xu, but when the words were about to be spoken, he remembered Gu Xiaoye.

This sister-in-law of his, from childhood to adulthood, has been held in the palm of his hand by his wife, the slaves in the Songtao courtyard have always been twice as many as the slaves in other people's courtyards, and they are about to catch up with their own marquis, whether it is traveling or going to school, he has always been followed by a large number of domestic servants behind his buttocks, and there is always a smell of fat powder on his body, even if he has been in the army for a few years, this situation has not changed much. Recently, there have been so many things that have caused him, and everything has given him a headache.

This loser thing!

Thinking of this, Jinye nodded immediately and said, "Then listen to you, but when Chengye comes back, I will teach him his homework!" ”

"The concubine is here, thank you Master Hou first!" Aunt Xu smiled with a smile, and didn't seem to mind at all that Master Hou didn't send someone to pick up her son.

Jin Yehou looked at her like this, and felt a little closer in his heart at the moment, he said softly to Aunt Xu: "You go back first, I'll go to your place for dinner." ”

This is extremely ambiguous.

Aunt Xu suppressed the ecstasy in her heart, and still smiled lightly: "Okay." ”

After a few more small talks, she got up and withdrew.

But as soon as she returned to her own yard, Aunt Xu immediately ordered the little servant with an expressionless face to secretly execute Xue Yang and throw the body into a mass grave overnight. She did all this according to Jinye Hou's instructions, and no one dared to say a word.

There is another thing that others don't know, that is, in fact, this Xue Yang, after Aunt Xu brought him back, she had never interrogated him at all, and what she said in front of Jinye Hou was deliberate.

That's right! In this matter, Aunt Xu is on Gu Ruoxi's side!

At the beginning, because of Gu Ruoxi's words, the power of the family fell from Aunt Su's hands to herself, Aunt Xu was so grateful to Gu Ruoxi in her heart, their mother and son lived a difficult life in this Hou Mansion, and no one ever remembered them, except Gu Ruoxi.

"Cuiyan, go to the kitchen and instruct you to cook a few of Hou Ye's favorite dishes tonight." Aunt Xu smiled and instructed the maid beside her.

"Yes, auntie." Cui Yan answered, and immediately turned and retreated.

Aunt Xu raised her head, glanced at the already dark sky outside, and muttered, "Ming'er, Chengye will be able to come back." ”

……

In King Jing's mansion, Gu Ruoxi sat on a chair, looking at a table of delicacies from the mountains and seas, but he couldn't get his mouth shut.

Because there was a man who was still chattering at her; "Xi'er! You trust me! The queen mother's attitude has been loosened, and I think it won't be long before she agrees to our marriage! ”

Gu Ruoxi picked up a chopstick belly and ate it slowly, raised his head and turned at Xuanyuan Jingxi

A roll of his eyes and said angrily: "Are you annoyed?" Don't let people eat? You said the same sentence hundreds of times? ”

"Xi'er, I'm just...... I'm afraid you misunderstand me. Xuanyuan Jingxi smiled, but he was extremely attentive to Gu Ruoxi with a bowl of fish soup, and said intimately: "This soup has just been made, it is very fresh, you can taste it." ”

"Which dish on this table isn't new? Tell me about it. Gu Ruoxi rolled her eyes again while drinking the soup.

She was wearing the clothes of a small girl, and her appearance had become yellow and thin, and there was really no beauty at all, but Xuanyuan Jingxi looked at her, and her eyes were still full of tenderness.

"Slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue." Xuanyuan Jingxi apologized again and again. Gu Ruoxi glanced at him and said, "What are you doing without eating and staring at me all the time?" Are you so full? ”

"It's delicious!" Xuanyuan Jingxi smiled slightly and said.

"Boring! Hurry up and grab a bite to eat! I don't want to be discredited with abusive you! Gu Ruoxi gritted his teeth, but he did it himself, served a bowl of chicken soup for Xuanyuan Jingxi, and then put some vegetables in his bowl.

Obviously, she is angry when she says she is angry, but in fact she is not in her heart.

Xuanyuan Jingxi looked at Gu Ruoxi's movements, but there was a glimmer of light in his eyes.

The dishes he loves to eat and the soup he loves to drink, Xi'er remembers them! What could be more proof of her love than this? Although her tone of voice has always been fierce.

Xuanyuan Jingxi simply loves such Gu Ruoxi to death!

After the meal, Gu Ruoxi touched his belly, which was a little overwhelmed, and glanced at Xuanyuan Jingxi, who was standing aside and grinning, with resentment. Ever since she had served him vegetables, Xuanyuan Jingxi had been desperately putting vegetables into her bowl like crazy, and threatened her with food, which finally caused this situation.

Gu Ruoxi was a little speechless, can this thing not be so excited?

The answer is impossible, Xuanyuan Jingxi is usually a cold and cool prince, but as soon as he arrived in front of Gu Ruoxi, he changed back to his teasing nature, and he pretended to be similar before, but recently he has been revealing his original form.

But Gu Ruoxi didn't come over today to just watch Xuanyuan Jingxi become funny, she had something serious to say.

"Jingxi, if you do this, will you force the Queen Mother to grit her teeth and stuff ten or eight women in your yard? After all, she is a face-saving person, her son is a short-sleeved person, and she is talked about by everyone, she is likely to be driven crazy, and the best way to stop the rumors is to fill your yard with women! ”

"That's not what you're worried about." When Xuanyuan Jingxi heard this, he immediately smiled slightly, and said, "The queen mother won't do this, if I don't know enough about her, how dare I set up such a plan?" ”

Amber heard this and had no choice but to give up.

The New Year is approaching, because Gu Yuetong got married, Mrs. Jinye Hou went to Qingyun Nunnery to repair, and the Hou Mansion was deserted, and there was no excitement and atmosphere of the New Year in previous years.

The brocade leaves are waiting for the whole thing

I am busy with official business during the day. I rarely pay attention to this, because Gu Ruoxi is the first time to celebrate the New Year, and she doesn't know the scene of previous years, so when she faces the coldness in the mansion, she doesn't care at all.

As for Gu Xiaoye, his ban order will not be lifted until a month after the year, and people can't get out of the courtyard at all, so they can't see the scene outside.

But fortunately, there is also Aunt Xu, she has been in the house for many years, how Mrs. Jinye Hou buys New Year's goods every year and dresses up the Hou Mansion, she sees it in her eyes and remembers it in her heart, and she will get it all in time before the New Year. No one else has to worry about it at all.

On days like these, there are people who are comfortable. There are concerns. Gu Ruoxi's heart is undoubtedly comfortable, her body is getting better, she usually reads books, enjoys the scenery, occasionally goes to Jinye Hou's study to hang out a door, at night, Xuanyuan Jingxi always likes to go to her room to sit in the night, these two people cherish this rare opportunity to see, sit and chat or something. The relationship has never been more harmonious.

It's just that Xuanyuan Jingxi only stayed in the Hou Mansion for three days, and then retreated quietly, because the Queen Mother wanted to see him.

Meanwhile. Gu Yuetong sent someone to hand over the message to Xuanyuan Shu, and finally got a reply.

When the personal palace maid beside her handed over the letter written by Xuanyuan Shu to herself, Gu Yuetong was almost a little overjoyed, and even the tips of her fingers began to tremble.

How did she know that the reason why Ren Jiaying asked like this was because she was afraid that Gu Xiaoye's face would be blamed by Jinye Hou.

"Second Miss Gu, I'm sorry, I was reckless, and that's why you brothers and sisters had a big quarrel." Ren Jiaying said apologetically: "Please don't mind." ”
