A gleam flashed in Li Nian's eyes, but he finally lowered his head: "The son obeys his father's arrangement. ”

The saint smiled and nodded: "That's fine, I will choose a suitable marriage for you." He glanced at Liu An, the great eunuch behind him, and Liu An hurriedly stepped forward to pour wine.

Li Nian looked at Gu Qing, who had already finished writing the family letter and walked towards the banquet, and suddenly blurted out: "If the son is interested in the Gu family's wife, can he ask his father for permission to marry?" ”

After all, he can't give up such a good opportunity, if the saint is a lady from another family who has set up with him, then he will miss it from then on.

As soon as he thought of such a special and unusual little lady who had been strange to him since then, he could no longer look at those smart eyes calmly, he felt a little lost, not to mention that he believed that Man Chang'an would never have a more suitable woman than Gu Mingzhu, and the Gu family would become his help.

The saint was taken aback, looked at Li Nian with a straight face, and saw that his eyes were firm and did not seem to be casually speaking, and slowly showed a smile: "Which lady in his house do you have a crush on?" ”

He remembered that there were several little ladies in Gu Qing's mansion, and one was born to Xuanyang and was the eldest daughter.

Li Nian's tone was calm: "Erchen and Qujiang Banquet and Beizhuang have seen Mrs. Gu, and they are impressed by their grace. ”

It's actually Xuanyang's daughter.

The expression between the saint's eyebrows was a little complicated, and he didn't speak for a long time.

Li Nian was becoming more and more uneasy in his heart, such silence meant that the sage was not optimistic about his marriage to Gu Mingzhu, whether he would refuse it, then he would have no hope.

"If it's all other ladies, I will marry you, but the Gu family ......" The sage spoke for a while, but his voice was a little low, "The lady of the Gu family is afraid that Gu Qing can only nod, after all, he is also an old minister of the two dynasties, and Gu Da Niang is the daughter of your Aunt Xuanyang, so she can't come hard." ”

There was something solemn in his words, but few people could hear it.

Li Nian's heart was relieved, and he hurriedly raised his head to look at the saint, what did he mean by this that he didn't object? If Gu Qing can nod and agree, he will be able to give marriage?

He was overjoyed for a while, and hurriedly bowed down and said, "Erchen understands." ”

The sage looked at Li Nian's expression, his smile finally faded a little, and he waved his hand: "Go down, it would be a good thing if you could marry the daughter of the Gu family." ”

He didn't finish his words, but he refused to say more in the second half of the sentence, but just talked and laughed with King Gaochang again.

Li Nian hurriedly returned to the table, looking at Gu Qing who didn't know what he was doing, he was even more excited in his heart, he didn't mention it, he only talked to Gu Qing about the folk scenery in the northwest, as well as the hard life in the barracks, and when he talked about the rise, he raised his glass and drank all the wine in the cup.

When the banquet was dispersed, Li Nian ordered someone to wait for Gu Qing to go back to the room to rest, and he walked around the lotus pond.

The bright moon in the sky reflected the shadow of flowers, he walked a few steps, and called the attendants who followed behind him: "Let people bring the news to the pawnshop as soon as possible, and ask them to help take care of the affairs in the general's mansion." ”

Since he intends to form an alliance with the Gu family, he naturally can't sit idly by and ignore the affairs of the Gu family and Gu Mingzhu, so that he can also know more about Gu Mingzhu.

Gu Qing's letter was quickly sent to the Gu family in the Chang'an Hussar General's Mansion, but this time his letter was not handed over to Mrs. Gu, nor to Luo, but to Gu Mingzhu.

She opened it, glanced at it and scanned it, smiled faintly, and put the letter aside, not paying any attention to it.

Mama Han was a little worried, and said, "Lady, what did the general say?" ”

Gu Mingzhu's slender and beautiful fingers picked up the thin pieces of letterhead, handed them to Mama Han and said: "Father asked me to hand over the sign and invite the Cao Yuan to come to see the old lady, and it is necessary to cure the old lady's illness, and said that the old lady has always cherished thrift, so let me give the right to give the old lady the right to give the middle feed, and help the old lady to do the dots, saying that a lady who has not left the cabinet is not good after all." ”

Gu Qing's letter was a little hesitant, and his tone was also very kind and sincere, saying that he couldn't rush back to Chang'an for a while, so he asked Gu Mingzhu to help the old lady ask the medical officer to take a look again, and persuaded Gu Mingzhu to return the feed to the old lady, and euphemistically mentioned that the old lady Gu was old, and she had always cherished money the most, and if there was any more mistakes, she would be even more sick and angry, so that Gu Mingzhu could make the old lady feel at ease in terms of grandchildren's affection.

It seems that Gu Qing knew and knew that these things in the house had something to do with Gu Mingzhu, but he didn't reprimand Gu Mingzhu for some reason, but just persuaded her to stop.

Gu Mingzhu looked at the familiar handwriting, and her smile became even colder.

When they started to do it, why didn't anyone persuade them to stop, ruined her life, and let her live her life with tears and suffering, and now she just wants to get her things back, why should she stop? If you become a king or lose, if you dare to harm others, you must be prepared to pay the price!

She smiled coldly and asked Mama Han to take down the letter and burn it, as if she had never seen it.

Mama Han was a little apprehensive: "I'm afraid that the general is unwilling to let the lady take care of things, so it's better to ......."

Gu Mingzhu helped Bu Shao, who had slipped slightly to the side of his sideburns, and said expressionlessly: "This can't help him, if it weren't for his acquiescence over the years, how could those people dare to fight Dongfu's idea, now that it has reached this point, he wants to come and mud again, but he can't!" ”

Mama Han wanted to persuade again, after all, the general was the father of the lady, how could there be such a deep estrangement between father and daughter! If the eldest princess hadn't died of illness, she would never have been like this now.

Mama Han thought and shook her head sadly.

Gu Mingzhu is not the slightest bit sentimental, over the years, her heart has been polished more and more hard, and she has been covered with a thick layer of armor, and she will never be easily injured again.

She called Abi to send the four treasures of the study, and personally wrote a letter, sealed it with fire paint and handed it to Mama Han: "Mama asked people to send it to the palace gate, bring the palace card, and let it be sent to the palace to Princess Anping." ”

In order to communicate with Gu Mingzhu and Cen Liuniang, Princess Anping specially gave them a palace card, as long as the brand was given, the palace people who guarded the door would send the letter to Princess Anping.

Mama Han responded softly, but she didn't know what Gu Mingzhu was doing this for.

Gu Mingzhu breathed a sigh of relief, and watched the guards and Mao Mao in the cage compete for pine cones with a fan, and slowly showed a little smile, it was almost good, and she would soon be able to ask for what belonged to her, she had waited for this day for a long time, and now hope is in front of her.

She gently tapped the purple bamboo cage with the handle of the fan, and looked at the two little ones staring at her with wide eyes, with a vigilant expression, and couldn't help laughing.
