Chapter 36 The Lord of Beiwan
Gu Qingwan didn't care about Zhu Tianyi at all, as if he was a grass that could be seen everywhere. Zhu Tianyi's face was pale, and his usually gentle eyes were rolling dark clouds at the moment.
"Although the courtiers used to be the fiancΓ©es of the three princes given by His Majesty, the three princes loved the sister of the courtiers. Although the courtiers are vulgar, they also know that they would rather demolish a temple than a marriage, and the courtiers are willing to fulfill the eldest sister and the third prince. Gu Qingwan paused and continued: "And because the courtiers have been rude and have also affected the reputation of the third prince over the years, the courtiers know that they are ashamed, so they are willing to dissolve the marriage contract. β
Gu Qingwan couldn't help but be moved when he heard it, and it also made many people sigh to themselves, if it were them, they would definitely find a way to make the fox spirit who seduced the three princes ask for their own hardships, but Gu Qingwan would rather sacrifice himself to fulfill them, it can be seen how a woman she knows righteousness, fulfills others, and has a broad mind!
However, only Gu Qingwan knows her true thoughts, why did she want to stop Gu Yan from dying by herself, Zhu Tianyi blocked herself, of course she had to fulfill it.
The dissolution of the marriage contract is a loss for the woman, not to mention that Gu Qingwan still has a marriage contract with the royal family. If there is no emperor to marry in the future, I am afraid that no one will dare to marry from now on, but now, she is still so generous, has suffered such a big loss, and has suffered such a big grievance but still does not make noise, and she is so aware of the righteousness. For a while, everyone inadvertently leaned to Gu Qingwan's side.
Zhu Hong couldn't hinder everyone's eyes, coughed lightly, and motioned for his father-in-law to bring a pen and paper.
Soon, Zhu Hong wrote the holy decree, and his father-in-law pinched his throat and said to Gu Qingwan: "Gu Qingwan, the second lady of Nanhou Mansion, accepts the decree." β
Gu Qingwan bowed down and knelt down, quietly listening to the will, "Fengtian carrier, the emperor's edict said: From now on, the marriage contract between Gu Qingwan and the third prince Zhu Tianyi will be dissolved." The second lady of the Gu family is obedient and skillful, and she is specially named the lord of Beiwan County, and she is specially given a pair of auspicious jade Ruyi from the West Sea, a pair of jade hairpins, a dark star bracelet, and a thousand taels of gold, cloth..."
Dark Star Bracelet! Gu Qingwan grasped the key point, and she couldn't listen to what was behind, and her heart was a mess.
Could this Dark Star Bracelet be the one she bought with her life in her previous life?
Gu Qingwan frowned and pondered, until the holy decree was recited, but he still didn't realize it. The father-in-law couldn't help but remind in a whisper: "Beiwan County Lord, hurry up and take the order." β
Gu Qingwan came back to his senses in an instant, kowtowed respectfully, and took the will, but there were huge waves in his heart. The banquet in the back did not intend to participate, and sat quietly in his seat and bowed his head in deep thought.
Qin Mochen saw the strange Gu Qingwan, his eyes flashed slightly, and he also lowered his head and thought deeply, but he didn't know what he was thinking.
Qin Xue Garden, the time had passed, Gu Qingwan was still sitting by the window, looking out of the window and frowning and thinking, he didn't even notice that Qin Mochen was near.
It seems that we will only be able to see the 'Dark Star Bracelet' when the reward arrives tomorrow.
"Hey, it can't be that you're suddenly going to be the county lord and be happy and stupid, right?" A joking voice came.
Gu Qingwan turned his head sharply and gritted his teeth, "I'm not rare to this county lord. β
"Oh, that's good. I'm not unusual. Qin Mochen lowered his voice and said, "I'm here to tell you that the news of your saving the Queen Mother today has been spread." I'm afraid that tomorrow, the old emperor will find a reason to announce your entry into the palace. β
So soon, will her medical skills be impossible to hide? Also, the palace was originally Zhu Hong's territory, and there must be people from all corners, so it was reasonable for him to know so quickly.
But since there are his people in the shadows, why are he indifferent when he sees the Queen Mother sick? Anyway, the queen mother is also her queen mother. The royal water is unfathomable!
Qin Mochen saw Gu Qingwan bowing his head and was silent, thinking that she was worried that there would be trouble tomorrow, the corners of his lips pulled slightly, and his voice was even more cold and ruthless in the cold winter night, "The old emperor seems to be very jealous of you, and he is quite suspicious. Today you are sharp again, but I am afraid that tomorrow you will go or there will be a crisis. But don't worry, I won't let you have anything to do. β
Gu Qingwan suddenly froze, he was specifically here to tell himself that there might be trouble tomorrow?
After a moment, her eyes were as deep as a wolf, flashing with a bloodthirsty light, "Thank you." However, I can solve my own business by myself. β
"You can't fight him for the time being."
"Huh, huh? But I've never been afraid of anyone when I'm so old, he just comes. Gu Qing's eyes were cold, "If people deceive me, I will destroy their clan; If anyone in the royal family deceives me, I will destroy his kingdom. β
Qin Mochen was shocked in his heart, how could a woman who was not valued at all say such imposing words? He looked at Gu Qing's stubborn body secretly, and involuntarily stepped forward and stretched out his hand to stroke her head, strong and domineering: "Without the permission of this son, who dares to touch you?" Gu Qingwan, listen, you have been booked by this son! β
His tone was as cold as an ice cellar, and the rosin on his body also exuded a faint cold fragrance, but it made Gu Qingwan feel warm. Gu Qingwan was unconsciously addicted.
Early the next morning, Gu Qingwan received a message from the palace that she was named the lord of Beiwan County and other rewards, Gu Qingwan received the reward, and the father-in-law who passed the decree said that she should enter the palace immediately to thank the emperor.
Gu Qingwan frowned slightly, according to Sheng Cang's law, isn't it because he should be after tomorrow morning? is in such a hurry to let her enter the palace, it seems that what the black-bellied man said is indeed right, Zhu Hong is indeed suspicious of himself, and wants to catch himself off guard.
Gu Qingwan took it with a light smile, Zhuyin took out a bag of silver from his sleeve with a discerning eyesight, and said to the father-in-law who passed the decree with a smile: "Father-in-law, since my young lady wants to enter the palace to thank her, she must dress up, please forgive my father-in-law for a while, and let the slave maid freshen up for the young lady." β
The father-in-law took the money bag handed over by Zhuyin, checked it, and immediately said yes with a smile after feeling the weight of the money bag, and patted Gu Qing's ass directly, saying that Gu Qingwan would definitely soar in the future.
Gu Qingwan has probably earned tens of thousands of taels by cooperating with Yun Feng to sell pills in the past few months, so the weight of that bag of silver is not light, to say the least, there are a hundred taels. And in this dynasty that has no history at all, twenty taels is enough for ordinary people for about a year, and one hundred taels is by no means a small amount.
After Gu Qing entered the house, he immediately opened the box containing the Dark Star Bracelet, took out the Dark Star Bracelet and held it in his hand to look left and right.
The Dark Star Bracelet is black overall, with a small diameter, and a dark night star is carved in a special way through the notch, but there is no other carving, although it is simple, but it is of excellent workmanship and good texture. It also uses modern synthesis technology and synthetic materials, which are by no means produced by this dynasty that has not been produced in history. So, whether it's ancient or modern, it's definitely priceless.
But now, Zhu Hong gave it to himself, and eighty percent felt that the workmanship was simple and there was no special attraction, and he might think it was just an ordinary bracelet.
Gu Qingwan carefully observed this bracelet, but he didn't find anything special about it besides its priceless price. Gu Qingwan secretly thought in her heart that there might be a mechanism or something, but after she stared for a while, she didn't find any mechanism openings on this bracelet.
Could it be that the bracelet she bought for her life in her previous life was actually just a relatively rare thing?
This is the 'culprit - Dark Star Bracelet' that betrayed her lover in her previous life and died in Huangquan in another world? Gu Qingwan's heart was extremely complicated, and he didn't know what it was like.
"Miss, it's not too early, we should be ready." Zhuyin looked at the tangled Gu Qingwan and reminded in a low voice.
Gu Qingwan couldn't help but be disappointed, sighed in frustration, casually put the Dark Star Bracelet on the wrist of his left hand, and after changing into the special palace clothes made by the county lord under the service of Zhuyin, he went into the palace with his father-in-law to thank him.
In the imperial study, Gu Qingwan had been standing here for about an hour. The father-in-law who entered the palace with her said that Zhu Hong had something to discuss with the minister in the Zhengde Palace, and asked Gu Qingwan to wait in the imperial study.
Gu Qingwan stood quietly in the imperial study waiting for Zhu Hong, she could feel that there were at least three people in this hall who were not only staring at her in the dark, but there might be some that she didn't notice. She believes that as long as she moves what she shouldn't do, she will be killed immediately if she doesn't go.
Gu Qingwan lowered her eyes and sneered, as far as she knew, Xie Heng and Xie Yan didn't enter the palace at all today. If there is something to discuss, how can the Minister of the Military Aircraft Department not be there? Where Zhu Hong was discussing things with the minister, it was clearly to deliberately embarrass her, let her show her flaws first, and he could take down himself in one fell swoop. Although she didn't know what she had in her that was worthy of Zhu Hong's jealousy.
Isn't it just waiting? What she has is patience, in her previous life, when she was specially trained by her superiors as a mercenary, she stood and ran for a few days, and she ate the last meal without the next meal. Won't you just let her wait here for a while? If Zhu Hong thought that he could expose his flaws in this way, he would inevitably underestimate her, right?
Finally, after a quarter of an hour and a quarter of an hour, Zhu Hong walked in with his sleeves flicked.
Gu Qingwan respectfully knelt on the ground and kowtowed to thank him, and after waiting for a while, he didn't see Zhu Hong let her get up, so he raised his head to look at Zhu Hong. Zhu Hong was squinting at Gu Qingwan at the moment, and Gu Qingwan raised his head to meet his gaze.
"I heard that you saved the Queen Mother yesterday?"
Zhu Hong still didn't intend to let her get up, it seemed that she was going to kneel and reply, Gu Qingwan felt a little helpless in his heart, but his face was still respectful, "Back to Your Majesty, exactly." The courtiers accidentally got lost yesterday, and unfortunately bumped into the Queen Mother's old illness, and the situation was critical, so she took the pulse of the Queen Mother on her own. She knew that she couldn't hide the matter of saving the Queen Mother from Zhu Hong, so she simply answered.
"You've studied medicine?"
"No, I didn't."
"Presumptuous! Gu Qingwan, you are so bold! Zhu Hong suddenly became angry, his eyes were sharp, and he said: "Do you know that the queen mother is noble, how can you be treated at will by a yellow-haired girl who doesn't know medical skills?" If the Queen Mother has three longs and two shorts, can you afford this responsibility? β
Gu Qingwan's eyes narrowed slightly, not at all moved by the imperial momentum exuded by Zhu Hong's body, but became more and more calm, and said: "Back to Your Majesty, the courtiers have seen some medical books from their mother before, and they have also seen the illness of the Queen Mother, so they will save the Queen Mother." Moreover, the courtiers specially waited for the imperial doctor to diagnose the Queen Mother before leaving, and when the imperial doctor diagnosed and treated the Queen Mother, he did not find anything wrong. β
"Really?" Zhu Hong looked at Gu Qingwan suspiciously.
"Yes." Gu Qing's back was straight, even kneeling would not make people feel that she was inferior.
