"Li'er, get up!" Gu Mingjue stood helplessly on the edge of the couch and shook someone who was still asleep.
Su Jinli said with sleepy eyes: "What are you doing?"
Gu Mingjue helped the delicate girl nested in the quilt and leaned against the quilt, and then scratched her delicate nose dotingly and said, "Today is the day to go back!"
"Huh? Well! Hearing this, Su Jinli, who was traveling in the sky, finally came back to his senses.
As soon as she saw that the room was already bright, she exclaimed, "Why didn't you call me earlier?"
Today, grandpa will definitely get up early and wait for her at the gate of the house!
This was the case in her previous life, but at that time, she hated her grandfather for promising herself to Mingjue, and she didn't go back to the house if she was not angry.
His old man stood at the gate of the mansion like that, from the light of day to Mingjue, he really couldn't persuade himself to go alone, so he went back disappointed.
Now that I think about it, she was really a bastard back then!
Gu Mingjue was not displeased at all because she was petty, but explained more gently: "I was tired of you last night, and I couldn't bear to call you when I saw you sleeping soundly!"
When he said this, Su Jinli couldn't raise his temper at all, and only secretly blamed himself for being sleepy in the past few days, and said in a loud voice: "Okay, okay, don't talk about this!" I'm going to get dressed and freshened! โ
"Yes!" Gu Mingjue pretended to nod his head and said, and suddenly amused the anxious Su Jinli with a "poof" laugh.
Then Gu Mingjue took the gorgeous clothes that had been prepared for her before the screen, took them to the couch, and personally dressed her one by one.
Only then did he carry her to the vanity mirror, cleaned her face and hands, and rinsed her mouth before calling Qingyue and a few people to come in and clean up.
After Qing Yao pulled a luxurious high bun for Su Jinli, Gu Mingjue waved them back again.
I carefully picked out hairpin necklaces from Su Jinli's several large boxes of dazzling jewelry, and put them on for her one by one.
Gu Mingjue looked at Su Jinli and asked carefully, "Lady, do you want to stop sticking a plum blossom?"
"Just what I want!" Su Jinli responded with a light smile.
She is wearing a red brocade palace dress today, and the hairpin on her head is a set of delicately gilded red agate plum blossoms.
This outfit makes her extraordinarily noble and elegant, but the makeup on her face is a little more plain, and she always feels that something is missing.
She just thought of sticking another flower, and Mingjue was the first to speak.
Seeing Su Jinli's eyebrows and eyes smiling, the smile on Gu Mingjue's lips deepened, and he hurriedly found Huadian to paste it for her.
Then the couple returned to the mansion in a carriage with valuable gifts and a group of servants.
The Seven Princes' Mansion was not far from the Ningguo Mansion, so they arrived quickly.
"The Nine Emperor Princes, the Nine Emperor Princesses have arrived!" As soon as the carriage stopped, Xiao Ningzi shook off his dust and sang.
The old prince led more than 100 people from the Ning Mansion to bow down and salute and said: "The old ministers (ministers, courtiers, courtiers, courtiers, and slaves) knock to see Your Highness, Your Highness is a thousand years old!" Welcome Your Highness home! โ
Su Jinli, who had just gotten out of the carriage, saw his grandfather giving him this big gift, and his nose suddenly became sour.
A few days ago she was still waiting for the word boudoir, to her grandfather to say goodbye, today she became a guest, and the beloved grandfather also had to bow down to her.
She was about to walk over quickly to help her up, when she saw Gu Mingjue take three steps and two steps to help her grandfather up.
"Grandpa, don't be polite to your grandson! I am accompanying my wife to Ning today as the son-in-law of Sufu! He said sincerely.
Hearing this, a trace of gratitude slipped across the old man's face, mixed with a little relief.
He has lived for most of his life and has known countless people, and he can completely conclude that Gu Mingjue is telling the truth.
The dignified emperor respected Su Jinli because he loved him, and such affection really lived up to his expectation that Emperor Yongli would promise him Li'er when he was angry!
Not to mention the old man, Su Jinli was also very moved by her grandfather when she saw Gu Mingjue using such humility and respect.
After helping the old Guogong, Gu Mingjue said to the rest of the Guogong Mansion: "Get up!" In the future, there will be no Seven Princes in Ningguo Mansion, only your eldest aunt! โ
"Yes!" And all the people answered with joy.
"Your Highness really loves Miss!" Su Li muttered quietly, his eyes full of envy.
Su Ningyun also smiled: "Big brother Quanxia will be very relieved to know!"
"Uh-huh!" Su Li nodded hurriedly.
The couple were whispering, and over there, Gu Mingjue and Su Jinli had already helped the old man to walk to the mansion one by one.
When they arrived in the house, Su Jinxiu and Su Jinjun, sisters and brothers, came to Su Jinli and his wife.
"Eldest sister, is my brother-in-law good to you?" Su Jinjun blinked his big eyes and looked at Gu Mingjue, thinking that he was asking Su Jinli in a low voice.
"Haha...... Mingjue is very good to her sister, Jun'er don't worry, sit down and eat! Su Jinli couldn't help but smile.
What do seven-year-olds know! But I have to say that the concern in Jin Jun's eyes pleased her.
"People are small and big. I'll treat your eldest sister well! Gu Mingjue also smiled.
Hearing this, Jinjun's face flushed, and then he hung his head in embarrassment.
It turned out that his words were actually heard by His Highness! I don't know if His Highness will be angry!
Thinking about it, he quietly looked at Gu Mingjue, and was relieved to see that he had no intention of blaming.
His actions naturally fell in the eyes of everyone without leaking, and Su Jinli and the others laughed again in an instant.
After laughing, the old prince said lovingly: "The dishes are all ready, let's move the chopsticks!"
Then he took the lead in picking up chopsticks and pinching a honey-roasted pigeon for Su Jinli to put in the bowl.
"Grandpa......" Su Jinli's eyes were hot, grandpa has always spoiled himself like this, remembering all her preferences.
Which dish on the table today is not her favorite to eat?
I don't know how stupid she was in her previous life to do something that him off!
The old man didn't know that her heart was turning a thousand times, and when he saw that her eyes were red, she was moved, and doted on: "How can you shed tears when you return to the door?" Hurry up and eat! โ
Su Jinli sniffed, suppressed her tears, and responded with a smile: "Yes!"
Then everyone began to move chopsticks, and there was no rule of "food without words" in the Guogong Mansion, so under Xiao Jinjun's adjustment from time to time, everyone was very happy to eat a meal.
Looking at the lively and laughing scene in front of her, Su Jinli was even more determined in the decision she had made before.
After eating, rinsing his mouth and cleaning his hands, the old man took everyone to the garden.
The Mansion is magnificent, and the garden is also very large, full of exotic flowers and plants.
It was late spring, and the garden was lush and beautiful.
They sat down in a corridor covered with wisteria, the breeze blowing and the fragrance wafting to their nostrils.
Not long after sitting down, Su Jinli said solemnly: "Grandpa, Li'er has something to discuss with you and the second uncle!"
"What's the matter? It doesn't hurt to say so. The old man's usual doting tone.
"Big ...... Li'er said! Su Ningyun originally wanted to be called "Miss", but as soon as she said a word, she was glanced at by Su Jinli and immediately changed her words.
"I want my grandfather to ask for the title of Jinjun as the son, and in the future, he will take the title of the Guogong Mansion." She looked at the old man steadily.
Her tone was indifferent, but it surprised the rest of the people.
The title of the Guogong Mansion is said to be granted? You must know that the Ningguo Mansion has 500,000 soldiers!
It's not like a lord with just one title!
After a while, Suning Yun suppressed the joy and impatience in his heart, and said bluntly: "Thank you Li'er for your kindness, but the second uncle should not allow this!"
"Huh?" Su Jinli was puzzled, and even the contemplative old man and Gu Mingjue looked at him suspiciously.
Su Ning Yun, who has always been not good at words, looked a little wooden when he heard this, and said: "The rule of the Su family is that the eldest son of the Su family will inherit the lord, and although the eldest brother died young, he did not leave a male heir. The bloodline is not endless, and our second room must not touch the title! โ
Hearing this, Su Jinli was moved, but still said firmly: "This ...... The second uncle's bearing, Li'er admires, but Li'er is a woman who can't attack the lord after all, so it's better for Jinjun to attack! โ
Su Ningyun didn't want to think about it: "You can't inherit the throne, but aren't your heirs also the bloodline of my Su family?" When you and His Royal Highness give birth to Lin'er, you will be crowned the son by your father! โ
He was very happy when Su Jinli let them stay in the Guogong Mansion, there was indeed a reason why the title was about to be obtained, but more importantly, he could do his filial piety in front of his elderly father.
During this time, he found that his only niece had been reborn, wise, and orderly, and no longer as stupid as she had been.
His mind for the title became less and less important.
Just now she proposed to let Jun'er inherit the title, and he was a little moved, but in a blink of an eye, he remembered the care and care of his eldest brother when he was alive.
That's why he resolutely shirked it.
As soon as Su Ningyun's words fell, the old man's eyes flashed, obviously moving his mind.
Su Jinli hurriedly said: "I am very grateful for what the second uncle said, but Mingjue's identity is special, and he must not have more than 500,000 troops!" Otherwise, there will be no place for our husband and wife in this Yan country! โ
What she said was to dispel the old man's mind, and she was also telling the truth.
Gu Mingjue is the prince who holds the military power, if he has more military power in the Ningguo Mansion for no reason, not only other princes can't tolerate it, but even Emperor Yongli can't tolerate him!
Seeing that the old man was obviously shaken but still entangled, Su Jinli gritted his teeth and made another fierce announcement.
She said: "The Ningguo Mansion has always been loyal and patriotic, and has never participated in the prince's succession!" If I and Ming Jue's child attack the knighthood, then how can the Guogong Mansion escape the royal struggle? โ
With so much military power in her hands, even if she and Ming Jue are loyal and patriotic, you can't tolerate them!
These words were like a thunderbolt, and they went straight into the hearts of everyone present.
After pondering for a long time, the old man finally made a decision: "What you say makes sense, just do what you say!" It's just that for Jun'er's name to be right, I have to pass him on to your father! โ
"This ......" Su Jinli frowned, she understood what her grandfather meant, but the second uncle had a son under his knees, how could he give it up?
However, unexpectedly, Su Ningyun did not speak out against it, but pressed Su Lishi, who had a bad complexion, and said: "Daddy is thoughtful, it is his blessing that Jun'er can pass on to his eldest brother!"
Seeing Su Jinli's stunned eyes, Su Ningyun smiled and said, "Big brother is a hero in my heart, and he is kind to me!" I feel very guilty for taking the title of my eldest brother, if Jun'er can be given to him as an heir, I will not be shameless when I see him in the future! โ
