Chapter 34: My Daughter-in-law
Chapter 34: My Daughter-in-law
The sun was shining, and the broken golden rays were shining through the nearby ancient pine branches, casting mottled shadows on the ground.
The old ancestor and Gu Tingcheng entered the hall for a while, and Tuoba was still immersed in Gu Tingcheng's joke just now.
It wasn't until he saw Gu Tingcheng coming out of the hall from the rockery that he woke up.
Watching Lianbu Yingying walk on the verandah and leave the Wanshou Palace, Tuoba smiled sweetly.
I wanted to go over to see her immediately, but the palace was full of people, and he would only get her into trouble if he went to see her so rashly.
Even in the palace, in front of her, it was difficult for him to guarantee that he would not be able to resist showing his affection for her.
The eyes and ears of the person behind the scenes are everywhere, and if the person who wants to assassinate her finds out that he likes her, then her life is in danger.
He was quite lost and entangled, watching Gu Qingcheng's back disappear into the courtyard of Wanshou Palace before walking into the hall.
"Ancestor!" Tuoba Jun stepped forward to salute the ancestor and held the ancestor affectionately.
"It's Jun'er here." The old ancestor smiled, pulling Tuoba Jun with a doting face.
"Jun'er came to accompany the ancestor for lunch today." Tuoba is in a rare good mood.
"Okay, it's rare for Jun'er to come to dine with the ancestors. Ah Rong, let people pass the meal! The old ancestor commanded with a smile on his face.
Mama Rong promised to instruct the palace people.
"Look, Jun'er is tanned." The old ancestor looked Tuoba up and down and pouted slightly.
Immediately, he smiled again:
"But it's even stronger!"
"Ancestor Xie cares about Jun'er." Tuoba Jun's smile was always on his lips.
The old ancestor said happily again:
"Just now, your daughter-in-law came over and told the ancestor a lot of jokes and stories, which made the ancestor very happy.
It's a pity you didn't come sooner. If you had come earlier, you would have heard her tell jokes.
The ancestor wanted to leave her for lunch, but she was too busy to prepare for the ancestor's birthday banquet.
The child is so young, and he has to do such a big thing, it's really difficult for the child in the city.
You're a daughter-in-law, what a baby. β
The old ancestor thought about the joke just now, and still couldn't close his mouth.
"My daughter-in-law?" Tuoba was stunned at first.
And then the surprise.
Then he looked at Mama Rong, who had just ordered someone to pass the meal, and asked Mama Rong with surprise in her eyes:
"What the ancestor said, but is it true?"
Mama Rong first sent someone to pass on lunch, and then shook her head with a wry smile and said:
"Ancestor, Xiao Chengcheng is the future princess of the doll daughter-in-law of His Royal Highness the King of Nan'an, not the future princess of the doll daughter-in-law of His Royal Highness the King of Gaoyang."
Rong Mama's words were like a basin of cold water, pouring down on his head, from the head to the heart of his feet.
The frost covered Tuoba Jun's body and mind, and the smile on his face froze.
A cold snap wafted through the air, bubbling with a hint of cold air.
"Is the mourning family confused?" The old ancestor seemed to muttered to himself.
The old ancestor suddenly looked like a child who had made a mistake, and he seemed to hesitate.
Then he looked at Tuoba Jun with a regretful face:
"That's a shame. The mourning family takes care of the small alluring city of the family, and Jun'er is really a natural pair. β
"Gu family, small allure city? The future princess of the eighth emperor uncle of the king of Nan'an? Tuoba Jun's eyes converged, and he asked with a frown.
I secretly said in my heart:
"It turns out that Zhang Xiulian is really not her real name, her real name is Gu Qingcheng. Looking at Allure, this is suitable for her. β
Mama Rong smiled and nodded:
"It is Gu Qingcheng, the second lady of Gu Zhongnian in Shangshulang, Lu Zuo Zhaoyi was the doll of Nan'an Wang Ding more than ten years ago, and only came to Pingcheng from Taiyuan a few days ago."
"Gu Zhongnian's second miss, the doll of the Eighth Emperor Uncle, only returned to Pingcheng from Taiyuan a few days ago?" Tuoba asked quietly.
His eyes were covered in frost.
The three words of the doll kiss were like three sharp arrows straight into his heart.
The pain was so painful that he couldn't eat, and he couldn't help but put down the dishes and chopsticks in his hand.
"Yes, as soon as she came, His Majesty ordered her to preside over the 80th birthday banquet of her ancestors.
Miss Gu Tingcheng is really as good as her name, and she looks at Allure.
Mama Rong has been in the palace for many years, and I have never seen any beauties.
Except for the old ancestor when he was young, he really hadn't seen a figure as immortal as Miss Allure.
And he understands medical science, and the medicinal diet of the ancestors in the past few days still depends on Miss Allure to serve him.
He is smart and clever, but he is really a living treasure.
I really didn't expect that the king of Nan'an would have such a blessing. β
Mama Rong talked about Gu Qingcheng endlessly.
The more Tuoba listened, the deeper his eyes became, and his eyebrows and eyes were as cold as a pool of water, making people unable to see the bottom.
His face became more and more cold, and the fist under the table became tighter.
That lunch, Tuoba Jun didn't know the taste.
The smile on his face couldn't hold up anyway.
Fortunately, Zhan Ying soon returned, and he also hurriedly said goodbye.
In the corner of the Imperial Garden of Wanshou Palace, Tuoba Jun looked at Zhan Ying, and his eyes couldn't wait.
"Your Highness, after you sent Miss Zhang Xiulian back to the mansion that day, your subordinates sent guards to protect Miss Zhang outside the Gu Mansion.
Miss Zhang didn't go out for three days, and early this morning, the guards followed Miss Zhang who left the Gu Mansion and watched her enter the palace.
Originally...... She is really Gu Zhongnian's second daughter, Gu Qingcheng, born to the original wife.
After the death of the original Wang family, Gu Tingcheng has been abandoned by Gu Zhongnian in the countryside of Taiyuan and ignored it.
Originally, Steward Li was ordered by Gu Zhongnian's current wife, Liu Rushuang, to pick up Gu Chengcheng and come back to resign from Lu Zuo Zhaoyi.
Then let her own daughter take her place.
Unexpectedly, Miss Gu entered the palace on the first day, but she didn't retire to get married.
In other words, Miss Gu is still ...... The doll of the king of Nan'an. β
When Zhan Ying said the last sentence, he looked sincerely frightened, knowing that King Gaoyang must be furious.
Sure enoughβ
"What is the doll of the king of Nan'an, we Xianbei Tuoba clan, there is no such rule!"
Tuoba was furious and punched the plane tree beside him.
Shake the leaves of the sycamore tree down.
Wanshou Palace Royal Garden planted a few sycamore trees, legend has it that the phoenix is not a sycamore, planting a sycamore, and pointing to attract the phoenix.
When Tuobajun's face eased slightly, Zhan Ying said again:
"Your Highness, there is something strange.
Palace banquets are generally undertaken by the palace supervisor and supervised by the queen.
Lu Zhaoyi begged His Majesty to let an inexperienced Gu Qingcheng preside.
I heard that in previous years, the ordinary birthday of the ancestor or His Majesty cost three or five hundred thousand.
Lu Zuo Zhaoyi not only asked a country girl who had just left the city to preside over the birthday banquet of the ancestors, but also applied to His Majesty for 100,000 silver taels just for Gu Tingcheng.
The 80th birthday of the ancestor is not trivial, and if you make a mistake, you will have to fall to the ground.
Lu Zuo Zhaoyi, this clearly wants to put Miss Gu Chengcheng to death. β
"What a girl who doesn't know whether to live or die!"
Tuoba Jun scolded in his mouth, but his face was nervous.
"But Your Highness, don't look at Miss Gu Chengcheng, who has just come out of the countryside, and she has never seen the world.
It is said that as soon as she received His Majesty's order, she immediately summoned the palace people of the six divisions and the twenty-four bureaus to give a lecture.
Jia Zhou, the apprentice who started to serve in Zongai, is a master and apprentice with Zongai, and he doesn't take Miss Gu in his eyes.
Miss Gu immediately ordered the Imperial Forest Army Staff to reprimand the Diao Nu Jia Zhou Thirty Army Sticks to stand up.
The beating made that Diao slave bitter, and no one dared to make a mistake.
also strategized, assigned the affairs of various departments and bureaus in an orderly manner, and the rewards and punishments were clear, and everyone was both respectful and afraid of her. β
"Calm and calm, like that girl does!"
When Zhan Ying said this, Tuoba Jun couldn't help laughing.
Then he smiled with honor:
"That girl is bold and careful, and she is calm and calm when she encounters a gangster like me who is being hunted down in the middle of the night.
It's a pity that this king was not present at the time, to see how she scolded Diao Nu.
The woman of this king is really extraordinary! β
"But, Miss Gu is Nanβ"
"Shut up!"
Before Zhan Ying's words were finished, he was interrupted by Tuobajun, and his people immediately became ruthless:
"In the future, Hugh will have to mention what the doll of the king of Nan'an.
The woman that this king has a crush on, not to mention the baby pro who has not yet been named.
Even if she marries Tuoba Yu, this king will snatch her back! β
Zhan Ying smiled at the corner of his mouth, and looked at Tuoba Jun with deep meaning.
He had never seen His Royal Highness King Gaoyang like any woman.
And he likes the baby of King Nan'an so blatantly.
So he stopped saying no more about stopping it.
"Zhang Xiulian? At that time, this king was thinking, such a peerless beauty who captivated the country and the city, her father and mother were really uneducated, so they gave her such an ordinary name. β
Tuoba rubbed his smooth jaw and smiled wickedly:
"Gu Qingcheng...... My Allure is indeed as good as its name. β
"It seems that Your Highness, not only to repay her for saving her life, but also to really like Miss Gu?"
Zhan Ying and Tuoba Jun grew up together since childhood, experienced in a hundred battles, although they are masters and servants, they have nothing to say, and they are like brothers.
Seeing that His Highness is rarely happy, he is also happy to see it.
"Idiot! Didn't you hear it just now, the old ancestor Chrysostom said that Xiao Chengcheng is the daughter-in-law of this king! Tuoba Jun grinned, and made a gesture to slap Zhan Ying's head fiercely.
"Yes, yes, that Gu Qingcheng is His Royal Highness's daughter-in-law!" Frightened, Zhan Ying hurriedly nodded and smiled.
Tuoba Jun let him go, and then frowned and said:
"Allure will definitely be in danger, her stepmother and Lu Zuo Zhaoyi are not kind to her.
Zhan Ying, you have to send more men to protect Gu Chengcheng. It's like protecting the king, you know? β
"My subordinates understand!" Zhan Ying immediately went to execute.
The palace was full of people, and Tuoba knew that blatantly going to Gu Qingcheng right now would only cause her trouble.
Maybe it's a murderous disaster!
I had to leave temporarily.
His alluring city will come a long way.
