Chapter 41: Marriage (2nd Watch)
Chu Yunsheng's heart chuckled.
This is the purpose of the Queen Mother calling her over!
In the current situation, there are rumors about her and Qin Qi everywhere, where is the Queen Mother asking her which son she cares about, this is to test Qin Qi to her!
So should she say that she has a sweetheart, or no sweetheart?
If not, she was sure that the Queen Mother would definitely ask "how is Qin Qi" in the next sentence.
If she said yes, who should she say she cares about? Xuan Shizi? She still doesn't know if the beautiful Xuan Shizi has a sweetheart.
If so, is she a sideways one?
Seeing Chu Yunsheng's distraction, the Queen Mother shouted, "Yunsheng, what are you thinking?" β
Chu Yunsheng suppressed his gloomy expression and shook his head, "It's nothing." β
"You look so melancholy, aren't you thinking about which son?" The Queen Mother had a very confused smile on her face, "Tell your grandmother, is it that the son you like already has a fiancΓ©e, so you are depressed!" β
Fiancee? In the entire capital, there are not many people who are only engaged and unmarried, needless to say, they also know that they are alluding to Qin Qi and Gu Yitang.
Chu Yunsheng was looked at by Empress Dowager Gu with fan-like eyes, she lowered her head, this is a dead end, no matter how you say it, it is wrong.
Can she choose not to answer!
Under the urging of the Queen Mother, she was stumbling, and she didn't have a name between her teeth for a long time.
At this time, Aunt Yulan came over and said, "Queen Mother, King Su and Princess Eleven are here." β
Qin Qi is also here? Chu Yunsheng's heart froze, and sure enough, Qin Qi was also in Empress Dowager Gu's plan.
While thinking about it, a delicate voice came from his ear, "Grandma Huang." β
Chu Yunsheng took the opportunity to look over, Qin Qi was still wearing an ink robe as usual. Qin Qi was holding a little girl carved in pink and jade, her height was at Qin Qi's waist, and she was eight or nine years old, which was probably the eleventh princess that Aunt Jinyu said.
The eleventh princess is pink and tender, wearing a pink gauze skirt, her face has a little baby fat, immature and cute, and a pair of watery eyes are like a clear spring, clean and thorough.
Eleven originally wanted to run to Empress Dowager Gu's side, but was pulled by Qin Qi, and the two of them greeted Empress Dowager Gu together, "Empress Dowager/Imperial Grandma Wan'an." β
Chu Yunsheng also bowed towards Qin Qi and the eleventh princess.
Qin Qi glanced at Chu Yunsheng, a flash of something flashed in his unwavering eyes, and then looked at the Empress Dowager Gu, "The Empress Dowager called me!" β
Empress Dowager Gu's shrewd eyes looked at Qin Qi and nodded, "Yes, the mourning family hasn't seen you for a long time, and it happened that Yun Sheng came today, and he called you over after thinking about it." β
After speaking, Empress Dowager Gu glanced at Chu Yunsheng, and saw that Chu Yunsheng had no expression on his face, and her eyes flashed with loss.
Eleven followed the Queen Mother's gaze and saw Chu Yunsheng, Eleven trotted up to her, blinking at her with clean eyes, "Sister Pingyang is also here, can I change my voice to call your sister-in-law in the future?" β
When these words were spoken, the whole temple was terriblely quiet.
Whether it is the capital or the palace, there are gossips about the two of them everywhere. The Queen Mother summoned the two of them over at this time, and everyone understood what they wanted to do, but they didn't say it through their bellies.
Now, from the mouth of the innocent eleven......
Chu Yunsheng's face was full of black lines, she bent down and held Eleven's pink face, correcting her low-level mistakes, "Your brother is already engaged to Miss Gu from the Wulie Marquis Mansion, and he will get married soon, and Miss Gu is your sister-in-law." β
Eleven shook her head, "Sister Gu is so beautiful, Eleven also hopes that Sister Gu can become Eleven's sister-in-law, but Sister Gu doesn't like her brother." β
Her big eyes looked at Chu Yunsheng, "Eleven heard a long time ago that my brother went to Sister Pingyang's boudoir, and now I heard that my brother saved you, and you are still hugging each other in public." You really like my brother, so I miss you more as my sister-in-law. β
Chu Yunsheng: ......
Who taught this little kid? Qin Qi?
Chu Yunsheng raised his eyes to look at Qin Qi, and found that Qin Qi also had a black face, Qin Qi said, "Eleven, you go back first." β
"No, I have long wanted to see Sister Pingyang, but my father didn't let me leave the palace, and I finally saw it today, so I don't want to go back." Eleven pulled Chu Yunsheng's sleeve tightly, as if if she didn't tighten it, her Pingyang sister was about to run away.
Eleven didn't go to see Qin Qi, and said to the Empress Dowager Gu, "Grandma Huang, hurry up and marry my brother and sister Pingyang!" β
Chu Yunsheng: ......
Qin Qi: "Aunt Yulan, please send Eleven back to Zhaoyang Palace, and instruct the grandmother who takes care of her to let her write the homework assigned by her master ten times, and she is not allowed to step out of the gate of Zhaoyang Palace until she finishes it." β
Aunt Yulan persuaded her with good words, but Eleven ignored her, and was finally forcibly taken out.
Chu Yunsheng listened to Eleven's struggling voice gradually getting smaller, and she was still shouting for the Queen Mother to give her marriage, she couldn't help but glance at Qin Qi. Qin Qi stood with his hands in his hands, still with that solemn expression, he looked at the Queen Mother, she guessed that Qin Qi was giving marriage This sentence came out of the Queen Mother's mouth.
Said it from the mouth of the Empress Dowager Gu, and then rejected it in a grand manner?
After Eleven was forcibly taken away, neither Chu Yunsheng nor Qin Qi spoke. There was silence in the hall for a long time, and Empress Dowager Gu finally spoke, "Qi'er, the mourning family also heard a lot of rumors about you and Yun Sheng yesterday. β
Thinking of those rumors, Empress Dowager Gu shook her head helplessly.
Qin Qi took advantage of Empress Dowager Gu's pause and said, "Qi has also heard about this matter, the rumors have spread too abnormally, and people have already asked people to thoroughly investigate the source of the news, and I believe that there will be results soon." β
Chu Yunsheng glanced at Qin Qi, nodded and said, "Yes, this rumor is too strange, it spreads throughout the capital with the power of thunder, someone must have done it on purpose." β
Through Cardamom, she learned that these rumors had been spreading since she entered the capital, and everyone knew that it had been a matter of effort for half a day, and that someone had done it on purpose.
It's just that she can't figure it out, who wants to spread this kind of rumor, wants her to become Princess Su, or wants Qin Qi to reject her and become the target of public criticism?
"There must be a source of gossip, and the mourning family asked the commander of the soldiers guarding the city gate, you are intimate by the moat, and it is true." The Queen Mother sighed and looked at Qin Qi deeply, "Yun Sheng is so ruthless because you are haunted by rumors?" β
There are rumors about Qin Qi and Chu Yunsheng everywhere, Qin Qi is a man, but it's okay, Chu Yunsheng is a woman, and now his reputation is very bad, will he die alone if he doesn't marry Qin Qi?
Her grandson is more ruthless in handling things, but she still has responsibility, which has ruined Chu Yunsheng's reputation, and he knows the seriousness of the matter.
"If the Queen Mother really has this meaning, she might as well ask the county lord of Pingyang what she thinks." Qin Qi's face was expressionless, and after he finished speaking, he looked at Chu Yunsheng.
