CHAPTER XXXVI
Gu Nanye shook his head and didn't say anything about Gu Paner's whereabouts.
He didn't want to block his mother, and he didn't plan to take Gu Pan'er back to the house.
Qu Muge sighed, it was really difficult to have such a father.
She had heard Xin's mother say privately that Master Gu raised a lot of outer rooms outside, and wherever the business was done, where the women were raised, there were many illegitimate children and illegitimate daughters.
Now those women and children can't contact Master Gu, they must all find Gu Nanye, and I don't know how he dealt with it.
It's easy for the woman to send the money, but it's not easy for the child.
"What are you going to do with these kids?" Qu Muge asked.
For Qu Muge, this may be difficult, but for Gu Nanye, it is not a matter at all.
The Yong Dynasty killed so many soldiers in battles every year, and countless orphans were left in the family.
The Pension Department will teach them the arts, and there will also be people who will go to the Pension Department to adopt children, and the court will arrange their lives until they get married.
Gu Nanye sent all the children of the Gu family to the Pension Division.
Even Ye Taohua's three children in his previous life were personally arranged by him.
Gu Nanye suddenly remembered the past, and then looked at the little girl in front of him, which made him feel a little unreal.
He almost ignored the fact that she was a mother and not a little girl who didn't know anything about the world, so it was no wonder that she would tell him about marriage needs and something......
After Qu Muge's worries were eliminated, he went back to his room and slept deeply.
On this midsummer night, Qu Muge had a dream of heavy snowfall.
Ye Taohua was wearing a white cloak and stood on the square outside the Heart Cultivation Palace, almost melting with the snow.
She carried a heavy burden in her arms, and her face was haggard and waiting for someone.
A group of figures walked out of the Heart Cultivation Palace, Ye Taohua stepped forward excitedly, and was about to walk up the steps, when he was suddenly pulled away by the two eunuchs who rushed over.
"You let go of me, I'll give him the things and leave, you let me go......"
Ignoring Ye Taohua's shouts, the eunuch pulled her to the corner gate on the side of the Heart Cultivation Palace, where a palace concubine was waiting.
Before Ye Taohua could stand still, she was slapped by her slender white hand.
"Is the Heart Nourishing Hall a place where you can trespass? If you don't understand the rules, don't go back to your Taixuanguan! ”
Ye Taohua clutched the burden tightly with both hands, and said with tears in her eyes: "Niangniang, please let me hand over the things to Master Hou...... The snow is so heavy, the weather is so cold, and I don't know if the children are dressed warmly...... They're still young, slush...... Mother, be merciful......"
The palace concubine sneered: "You shut up for me, and you still have the face to mention those evil seeds you gave birth to?" The emperor is afraid that you will be sad and will not tell you, this palace might as well tell you that these things that make the royal family lose face have been executed a long time ago! The emperor handed them over to Gu Nanye, how could he stay alive? ”
Ye Taohua's eyes widened suddenly, and she sat down in the snow in disbelief.
"No, my father promised me that I would treat them well...... They're not wrong, they're innocent! ”
The palace concubine looked at the haggard woman who fell in the snow with disgust, and said to the palace people: "Drag her back, let the ministers see it, and lose the face of the palace again!" ”
Ye Taohua was stimulated, like a divine power, so she shook off the eunuch and rushed towards the crowd outside the Heart Cultivation Palace.
Gu Nanye saw from a distance that Princess Taixuan, who had just returned to the palace, running towards him like a madwoman, and he waited for her quietly.
Ye Taohua ran wildly for a while, causing her to lose her strength, and she fell in front of Gu Nanye at the end of the steps.
She stretched out her hand with all her might, grabbed Gu Nanye's lower robe, and screamed, "You beast, you killed my child!" You give me back my child! ”
Gu Nanye knelt on one knee, held Ye Taohua with both hands, looked at her levelly, and said calmly: "Your Highness Taixuan, the children are all fine. ”
Ye Taohua's face was full of tears, her hair was stuck to her face, she was embarrassed, and she only had a pair of black eyes, her gaze was compelling, and she was full of hatred.
She shook her head in disbelief: "You lie to me, you are all lying to me!" Why do you want us to come back if you dislike us so much? It's better to let our mother and son fend for themselves outside! ”
Gu Nanye turned his head and glanced at the palace concubine who was chasing here, and then said to Ye Taohua: "Your Royal Highness Taixuan, I promise you with the soul of a soldier who died in battle, your child is very good now, you can trust me." ”
Ye Taohua looked at him with a choked voice, clasped his wrists tightly with both hands, and said word by word: "I want my child!" ”
In the end, Ye Taohua was still taken back by the palace concubine.
A few days later, a purse containing a red bean bracelet was sent back to Taixuanguan by Bai Yuan: "Gu Hou asked me to transfer this to you, please rest assured." ”
Ye Taohua held the bracelet and cried bitterly, this was made by her for her eldest daughter, and they were all still alive.
Qu Muge felt the excitement of Ye Taohua's ups and downs, bent the corners of his mouth, and said silently in his heart: "You can always trust Gu Nanye......"
In the dream, Bai Yuanhui comforted Ye Taohua.
"The emperor separated you from the child for your own good. Gu Hou has placed the children properly, don't worry too much. ”
Ye Taohua wiped her tears and said, "It's me who blames Xiling Hou...... Do you know when he will enter the palace, I want to apologize to him in person. ”
Bai Yuan shook his head back and said, "He has an accident, and he will be demoted to the South China Sea to calm the sea trouble, and I am afraid I won't see him in the near future." ”
"Ah...... Isn't he deeply trusted by his father? How was it degraded? Ye Taohua asked worriedly.
Bai Yuan replied: "Gu Hou's father was doing maritime business with the Fusang people, and he actually sold the navy patrol map secretly...... The Fuso pirates bypassed naval patrols and ransacked coastal towns. Gu Hou personally tied up his father and went to the palace to plead guilty, but the big mistake was made, the emperor spared his life, demoted him to a striker, and ordered him to go to the South China Sea to make meritorious contributions......"
Ye Taohua's heart tightened, and Qu Muge's heart sank heavily.
When she woke up in the morning, she was a little more preoccupied, and she sat at the head of the bed for a long time without waking up.
No wonder Gu Nanye hates his father so much, not only because Master Gu is sorry for Mrs. Gu, but also because Master Gu collaborated with the enemy and committed treason.
Thinking of the upcoming Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet, how forbearant did he have to be to agree to take Master Gu back for the Mid-Autumn Festival?
Qu Muge was unhappy for Gu Nanye in his heart, he had been paying for the country and his family all his life, but he was burdened with all the drag of the Gu family and the infamy of the whole world, why was it so unfair?
Because of something on his mind, Qu Muge was in a bad mood for several days.
Mrs. Gu thought that she was blaming herself for not holding a tea party, so she specially found her and said, "The brothers and sisters of the Lin family asked you to go to Tianyin Pavilion to watch the new "The Legend of the Second Concubine", you should go with them quickly, it is a good thing to make more friends." ”
Qu Muge shook his head silently.
