Chapter 16: It's not that simple

Boling Cui's family is out of Langjun! Several ladies couldn't help but be taken aback, and glanced at each other, shocked and a little more excited.

That is the Boling Cui family, the head of the Guanlong clan, the leader of the world's clan, and the hundred-year-old clan that ordinary people can't even think about, even ordinary magnates are difficult to associate with them. At that time, if Emperor Gaozu had not been supported by the four great families of Guanlong, it would not be easy to sweep away the remnants of the previous dynasty and open a national dynasty.

It's just that after the incident of Zhao Guogong, the people in the scholar clan are unwilling to move around with the royal family and nobles more, and they are even more unwilling to enter the court as officials, so it is even more difficult to see these children of the scholar family. No one expected that at the Qujiang banquet this time, the concubine of the Boling Cui family would come, which was really surprising.

Mrs. Wang was still talking: "Not only will Cui Jialangjun come, but also Chen Liuwang......"

"King Chen Liu!" At this moment, even Mrs. Guo changed her face, she never expected this person to come, but she had never heard the slightest rumor before, it seems that this Qujiang banquet is really not simple.

She didn't think much about it, so she called Guo Yuxiu and Guo Yulan, the two sisters, to follow quickly, and hurriedly went to the Furong Garden.

Luo Shi also looked up and down in his heart, and asked Mrs. Wang in a low voice: "Why is that one also here, the Queen of Heaven called them to Ziyun Tower to meet them not for the sake ......of King Xian and His Royal Highness King Xian" Her voice gradually lowered, and her brows furrowed slightly.

Mrs. Wang's face was also a little uneasy, but she still smiled: "Naturally, I chose relatives for King Xian and His Royal Highness King Xian, but after a while, it will be the birthday of the saint, and King Chen Liu also rushed back to Chang'an to offer a birthday gift." ”

Luo Shi froze and said softly: "No wonder Cui Jialangjun will also come, just at this time...... It's really worrying. ”

Mrs. Wang was quite calm, and said with a smile: "What's the panic, the queen of heaven is here, where can there be any chaos." ”

As they spoke, they took a few of their ladies and sisters to the colorful and gorgeous apricot grove in full bloom.

The purple cloud tower towers in the depths of the apricot forest, revealing the eaves and corners of the Biwa Zhu Yong in the midst of the flowers. There are already many ladies and ladies of your mansion waiting in front of the building, and Mrs. Guo is talking with the Guo family sisters and Mrs. Deng of the Zhongshu Shilang Mansion at this time, looking pale, thinking that it is also because of the news that she just heard.

Although Gu Mingyu was straightforward and didn't know how to turn, he could also see that the atmosphere was a little weird, and he couldn't help but pull Gu Mingyue's sleeve strangely, and asked softly, "Who is King Chen Liu?" Why haven't you heard of this highness? ”

Today's saint's heirs are thin, and there are only three princes in the palace, except for His Royal Highness the Prince, who is the Virtuous King and His Royal Highness the King Xian, who are with the prince's mother, His Royal Highness the Prince has already made a marriage with Mrs. Feng of the Xuguo Mansion, and this time the Qujiang banquet is to choose a marriage for King Xian and His Royal Highness King Xian, but I have never heard of King Chen Liu.

Gu Mingyue bit her lip, and her originally delicate face also showed a hint of doubt, but she said in a low voice: "Don't ask more, just sit in peace for a while." ”

Only Gu Mingzhu looked calm, walked away a few steps casually, stood under an apricot tree that was in full bloom, and looked up at the apricot blossoms that were blooming just right.

It's no wonder that Gu Mingyue and Gu Mingyu didn't know who Chen Liuwang was, and Gu Mingzhu didn't know it at the beginning. Just because he is a person who is never mentioned in the palace and your mansion, it is an unspoken taboo, and he exists in the world and in the royal family like an invisible person.

It is said that the identity of King Chen Liu is so precious, he is the eldest son of the former queen Chen and the current saint, and he is also the crown prince of the jade treasure canon, but because Queen Chen was deposed because of the witchcraft of the queen, the position of the prince is also in jeopardy, fortunately, although he is still young, he still has self-knowledge, and he asked the saint to abolish his position as the prince, and invited him to the fief Chen Liu, and since then he has stayed in Chen Liu for many years and has not returned to Chang'an.

This is the first time he has returned to Chang'an in more than a decade.

At the moment, the door of Ziyun Tower was wide open, and the maids of Tsing Yi Palace came out, standing neatly on both sides and bowing down, greeting the ladies and ladies of your mansion.

Luo glanced at Gu Mingyu sternly as a warning, and then with a smile on his face, he took Gu Mingzhu, Gu Mingyue and Gu Mingyu, the three sisters, and Mrs. Wang's mother and daughter into the building.

The seats in each province were arranged according to their grades, and when Luo arrived at the table, he found that Gu Mingzhu's seat was far above her, and there was some distance between her and Gu Mingyue and Gu Mingyu's sisters.

She sighed softly, smiled and said to Gu Mingzhu: "You go and sit down at the table, if you have anything, just send someone to talk to me." He looked at Gu Mingzhu lovingly.

Gu Mingzhu smiled slightly, thanked her, and took Abi to her seat.

Guo Yuxiu and Guo Yulan also entered the seats, but their seats were next to Gu Mingzhu.

"How did Mrs. Gu dress up today? It looks like these palace maids. Guo Yulan looked at Gu Mingzhu's simple dress, and couldn't help but sneer, she was the same as Guo Yuxiu, she had never looked down on Gu Mingzhu, and when she thought of sitting with her, she only felt tired of herself.

Guo Yuxiu also covered her mouth and laughed: "Alain, if you don't say it, I haven't even seen it, as expected, Mrs. Gu's dress is really ingenious." ”

The two sisters smiled heartily and looked at Gu Mingzhu proudly, very satisfied with her inconspicuous appearance today.

Gu Mingzhu smiled faintly, and called the palace maid to take a few to lean on for herself, and then raised her eyes to look at the Guo family sisters who were smiling and trembling, and said, "I heard that the Lu family's Jiao Niang is no longer a good girl?" ”

Her words, like a basin of ice water on dog days, froze the smiles of the Guo sisters on their faces, Guo Yuxiu twitched the corners of her mouth slightly, and her eyes involuntarily revealed fear and panic, and it took a long time to calm down, and said: "What nonsense are you talking about, Jiao Niang is raised in the house, and the medical officer said that the injury is serious, and it will take some time to recover." ”

At least that's what Mrs. Guo told her.

Gu Mingzhu smiled and said unhurriedly: "Can you heal if you look like that?" She pointed to the two empty seats not far away, "If that's the case, why didn't Mrs. Lu and Mrs. Lu even refuse to come to this Qujiang banquet?" ”

Guo Yuxiu's hands trembled, she lowered her head, her heart was in chaos, did Lu Jianniang really not do it? It was Gu Mingzhu who she wanted to get rid of, but it wasn't Lu Jianniang! How did it come to this?!
