Chapter 296: The Uninvited Guest (First Update)
This time Gu Mingzhu went out of the palace, but it was a little different, the palace car that sent her out of the palace was followed by a carriage full of rewards, and it was sent all the way to the county lord's mansion, without any shying away from it, and it would soon be known to everyone in Chang'an's noble mansion.
Gu Mingzhu sat in the carriage, but he was very calm, this was intentional by the queen of heaven, I am afraid that I want to let your mansion know.
Mama Han waited in front of the door early, happily following Gu Mingzhu, but when she saw the reward of the car, she couldn't help but be taken aback: "County Lord, this is ......"
Gu Mingzhu smiled indifferently: "It's a reward from the queen of heaven, and Mama just let people pack it in." ”
Mama Han looked at the luxurious clothes, the best Persian incense, and many high-quality wool materials, and smacked her lips for a long time: "The queen of heaven is so loving that she has rewarded so many valuable rewards. ”
But this is just an ordinary time out of the palace, not a New Year's Festival, nor a happy event, it is really unbelievable.
Gu Mingzhu didn't care, went all the way to the house, and asked Mama Han: "Is the house okay?" What's not? ”
Mama Han smiled and stretched her eyebrows: "Thanks to the county lord's blessing, everything is fine, the house is safe and sound, but I just remember that the county lord is in the palace and I don't know if everything is okay." ”
She suddenly remembered something, frowned, and said, "Yes, the three ladies in the house over there came a few days ago, but they just sat down and left." ”
Gu Mingzhu raised her eyebrows suspiciously, she was not in the mansion, how could Gu Mingyu come over.
"What did you say?" Gu Mingzhu asked.
Mama Han shook her head: "I just asked when the county lord would leave the palace and return to the house, and left without saying anything else." ”
"It's just that the maid looked at the third lady's expression a little wrong, and she looked very anxious, but she didn't know why."
Gu Mingzhu thought about it, she had told Gu Mingyu that if she had any trouble, she would ask someone to come over and say it, but this time she actually came over in person, knowing that she was not in the house, she rushed over eagerly, it seemed that there was really something urgent.
She was about to order someone to go to the General's Mansion to ask and see what happened to Gu Mingyu, but before she could speak, she heard the maid come in and bow down: "County Lord, Lady Ping of the General's Mansion came over to ask to see the county lord." ”
Liu's? Gu Mingzhu was really surprised, she actually rushed over when she returned home, obviously letting people wait for news at the door a long time ago, but she didn't know why.
She frowned, and told the maidservant, "Go and invite her in." ”
When the Liu family came in, it still made Gu Mingzhu's eyes tighten.
It seems that it is indeed different, the Liu family is dressed in a begonia red satin magnolia wearing a butterfly sleeved shirt, a water-red silk pomegranate skirt, and two red gold flat hairpins on his head. ”
Gu Mingzhu didn't tell her to get up, nor did she smile at all, looking at her: "How can Mrs. Ping have time to come to me?" But what's the matter? ”
Liu's eyebrows were bright, and he didn't just get up, and worshiped there respectfully: "I just heard that the county lord has returned to the house, and the concubine can't help but be happy in her heart, and she has been thinking about coming over to ask the county lord for peace, and she just got the opportunity today, so she came to the door recklessly, and I hope that the county lord will not blame." ”
Saying that, she bowed down again and gave Gu Mingzhu a good gift.
Gu Mingzhu smiled lightly, and her eyes were cold: "Then thank you for the kindness of Mrs. Ping, now that I have seen it, I have also asked for peace, if there is nothing wrong, I will let the maid send Mrs. Ping out of the house." ”
Liu's smile did not change at all, but was even more respectful and cordial: "The county lord is not in the mansion these days, the old lady is very worried in her heart, today I heard that the county lord has returned to the mansion, and specially ordered the concubine to come over to ask for peace." ”
"There is another thing, tomorrow there is a flower viewing banquet in the house, the old lady has been chattering, saying that in the past, several ladies in the house were in one place, this year the county lord entered the palace, and the second lady is in the view of Qing Xiu, I am afraid that there is a lot less excitement." What Liu said was all playful and intimate, "I happened to hear that the county lord had returned to the house, so I didn't send the concubine quickly, but I also invited the county lord to go over tomorrow and have a good time with the third lady and the fourth lady." ”
Gu Mingzhu almost laughed out loud, the general's mansion Gu Mansion arranged a flower banquet, this is never a thing, Mrs. Gu came from a humble background, and she has always looked at money, where are those leisure and elegance to vassal elegance, in previous years, even the birthday banquet was also exquisite, I didn't expect to come up with new tricks this time, and I actually learned from those family lords and nobles to set up a flower banquet, and I don't know who came up with the idea.
She has lived so many times, and she understands the virtues of these people best, but she is afraid that this time she will have some calculations.
She raised her eyes and looked at the Liu family: "There is Yaxing in the house, but I don't know who I invited?" ”
Liu smiled and said: "They are all familiar with the house, the Duchess of Qin, the Duchess of Yanguo, Mrs. Nanyangbo, Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Cen San, Mrs. Liao Wu, ......"
She spoke eloquently, like a number of family treasures, and she was very familiar.
Gu Mingzhu looked at her, her eyes flashed slightly, it seems that these were arranged by the Liu family, otherwise she would not be so clear, but she heard the words Duchess of Yanguo.
Could it be that this lady has forgotten the ugly incident that happened in the Gu Mansion at the beginning, and she should not dare to come again if she has lost her face, so why would she invite her.
This flower banquet is becoming more and more interesting, I don't know what tricks Gu Fu is going to play.
Liu looked at her with affection: "The county lord must appreciate his face, the old lady has been thinking about it these days, and she is full of chagrin when she talks about the original incident, so she only said that she was confused for a while...... After all, it is a family, and the broken bones are still connected to the tendons, how can they be separated like this. ”
She said and looked at Gu Mingzhu even more eagerly: "What's more, the ladies and ladies who came back this time are all familiar with the county lord, and it is rare to get together, which is also a happy thing, isn't it." ”
I have to say that Liu is more tactful than Gu Mingzhu thinks, and is more able to guess people's hearts, if she really doesn't understand, I'm afraid that she feels that every word is very sincere, and I'm afraid that she won't suspect that she has other thoughts.
It's a pity that Gu Mingzhu saw her thoroughly, looked at her various words coldly, but didn't debunk her, and smiled: "Thank you for the kindness of the old lady and Mrs. Ping, since this is the case, I will definitely go to the banquet tomorrow." ”
Although she and the Gu family have been clearly separated, in the eyes of outsiders, after all, she is still from the Gu family, if the Gu family refuses to set up a banquet, I am afraid that there will inevitably be some rumors, since I want to know what happened to Gu Mingyu, I will take this opportunity to go over and take a look.
Liu's face changed after all, she was not confused, she naturally knew that what Gu Mingzhu said was going to the banquet, so she and the general's mansion would be wiped out with just one sentence, but I was afraid that their plan might not be so easy.
