After Pei Yourui got out of the carriage, she saw Song Yixiao who greeted her at a glance, and she was going to immediately ask a few questions that she was most concerned about, but Song Yixiao opened her mouth and said: "My grandmother is in the house now, and I am very happy to hear that my sister is here, and I want to meet my sister." ”

"Lao She is worried about the old man, is it mine." Pei Yourui is not very clear about the grievances between her uncle and the old lady Duanmu and the eldest princess of the Jin Kingdom, after all, since her father Pei He saved the idea of borrowing the light of the eldest princess of the Jin Kingdom and sheltering his daughter in his early years, of course he would not let her know that the reason why her uncle went at a young age had a lot to do with the eldest princess of the Jin Kingdom.

However, Pei He died unexpectedly on the way to Youzhou, and before he died, he mentioned Jian Limiao - later, because the eldest princess of the Jin Kingdom couldn't coax her to come to the imperial capital, she turned to Jian Limiao for help, and the people sent by Jian Limiao to Youzhou told her that Pei Ze and Jian Limiao were friends of life and death, and they were like brothers.

Therefore, although Pei Yourui had never seen Old Lady Duanmu, she knew that she was the elder of her own uncle and uncle, and she would not slack off at this moment, so she hurriedly suppressed her anxious mood and nodded, "Please take me to her old man's house immediately!" ”

Pei Yourui thought that she and Mrs. Duanmu had an old relationship, but firstly, she had never known her life, and secondly, Pei Ze had passed away for many years, and there might not be much left of this friendship.

I didn't want her to say a few words of greeting after seeing the old lady Duanmu, but the old lady looked at Song Yi next to her and said with a smile: "Didn't Shanyao say that there was still something to do?" You go and do it, Yourui is here, I have my old bones to greet you! ”

Although Pei Yourui was stunned, Song Yixiao knew early in the morning that the old lady Duanmu was going to personally inform Pei Yourui of the ins and outs of everything, so she nodded at her at this moment, gave her a reassuring look, and retired.

She returned to the back hall to deal with a few housework, and arranged for Tao Jinfang, who was listening outside Guansong Xiaozhu, to come over and say: "The county lord of Jingmin has left Guansong Xiaozhu, and he looks like he has cried, and his expression is also in a trance, but he should still be able to hold on - he entered the courtyard you arranged for her before without much help from the maid." ”

Song Yi smiled and asked, "Did Aunt Yun go to see it?" ”

"Aunt Yun has already followed up." Tao Jin said, "The person in front of the old lady told the slave maid that there is no need to disturb for the past two days, let the county lord of Jingmin be quiet alone." ”

"Send some medicinal herbs over, and then ask the people who serve Sister Pei, is there anything missing?" Song Yixiao stretched out his fingers and rubbed the corners of his forehead, and ordered, "Also, if they want to go to their grandmother in Qingyue in the past two days, tell them to be quiet when they go in and out, so as not to make trouble with Sister Pei!" ”

Moss brocade should go down, and stop talking.

"Anything else?" Song Yixiao noticed it and raised her eyebrows.

"There was also a news report on the door, saying that Gu Fu had delivered a message." As she spoke, she observed the hostess's expression, preparing to shut up whenever something was wrong, "The Tao is Gu Gonghe...... He wants to meet you! ”

When Gu Shao was the prime minister, everyone naturally called him "Gu Xiang", but later he was imprisoned because of He Lou Duhan, and it was not good to call him "Xiang" anymore, in order to show respect, everyone called "Gu Gong" on the scene.

However, Song Yixiao really has no desire to be close to this Gu Gong. Hope.

Hearing this, he sneered and said, "This is really strange! What does he ask me for? ”

Moss Jin lowered his eyebrows and said, "It seems to be something about Ji Nangong?" ”

"Then there's no need to meet." Song Yixiao waved his hand casually, "I haven't even met my grandfather - let alone just a friend of my grandfather when he was alive?" Tell someone that I need a baby right now, and I can't be disturbed! ”

Jiangnan Tang is extinct, where is there any need to inquire about the people and things that are close to Jiangnan Tang?

The news of the rejection spread back to the palace, but Gu Shao, who had just come out of the edict prison, was not surprised, and only showed a little regret in his eyes: "Don't you see?" Also, although she is Ji Nan's granddaughter, but I only focused on Yuan'er before, and I never took care of her, and I have calculated her a few times, so it's no wonder that she is too lazy to pay attention to me now. ”

The old servant was a little resentful in his heart: "If the master is really hostile to her, with the master's means, how can he want her to be ruined earlier?" Now I just want to ask her to help ask the Su family for an accurate question, but she refuses to even meet in person, which is really rude! After all, the old man is a close friend of her maternal grandfather, and for Ji Nangong's sake, she shouldn't refuse! This person didn't grow up in the Song family, and he has no rules! ”

In fact, Gu Shao wanted to make an appointment with Song Yixiao this time, mainly because he wanted to ask about He Lou Duhan.

Of course, he can ask the Su family directly, but Xu is because his ancestors and grandchildren have been getting along for many years, with Gu Shao's face, there is no need for the Su family to lie to him now-not to mention the truth, Gu Shao actually guessed almost the same - but Gu Shao didn't dare, he just wanted to go around in circles and circles, but he wanted to get out of the way, and he wanted to leave a glimmer of hope for himself and was unwilling to be exposed.

That's why he thought of Song Yixiao.

Of course, maybe it was because he received the news that Pei Yourui, the wife of He Lou Duhan, had just been admitted to Yanhou Mansion.

"That's it!" Gu Shao pondered for a long time, and finally shook his head, and said abruptly, "Actually, I didn't think about it either...... Do you want to ask clearly? Now she refuses to meet, just to help me make a decision, let's go! ”

- Although the Su family and Jian Xubai, who had controlled the imperial capital, had no intention of killing Gu Shao, there was no place for him in the court right now.

In fact, even if there is, Gu Shao, who raised a "grandson" and student who assassinated Lu Chengxuan, has no face to stay.

Therefore, he did not receive an ultimatum to return to his hometown, but he was already packing his luggage and preparing to go south against the wind and snow to return to the Hongzhou Gu Mansion where he had not been back for decades.

Speaking of which, he had traveled to the forest for nearly 20 years, and this time could have been spent in his hometown, but he lived in Jiangnan for a long time for He Lou Duhan, and he thought that he had cultivated an outstanding descendant, an heir who comforted him that "there is no successor", who knows...... Behold......

The Su family and Jian Xubai didn't kill him, probably because they knew that the blow to him from this incident was enough to describe it as "a catastrophe that will never be recovered"?

From now on, the name "Gu Shao", even if it is flawed, is still respected by most people in the world, but he can no longer be the famous face of the court.

No matter how healthy the body is, but the heart is dead, even if the stomach is full of wealth and poetry, who can threaten?

Gu Shao smiled bitterly, thinking of his old friend who died early, and then thinking of the current situation of Jiangnan Hall, he only felt that he didn't want to come to the imperial capital again in this life, and he didn't want to see Jiangnan again.

The next day, Gu Shao's master and servant did not bring idlers, only a few people, drove a small car, braved the wind and snow, did not use anyone to send it, did not tell anyone, and quietly disappeared in the imperial capital that gradually restored its prosperity due to the approach of the New Year.

A generation of celebrities, silent, throughout his life, never made any deeds recorded in history, not even circulated a word of poetry - after he returned to his hometown in Hongzhou, less than half a year, he fell ill on the bed, even after the imperial capital received the news, Emperor Sutai specially sent the imperial doctor to go, but five years later, still left.

According to the records in the history books, it is said that he was sick because he was in a hurry in the cold winter and wax moon, and because he had not seen his hometown for many years, he was too excited after returning to the Gu house, and he had not been able to take care of himself, so he died soon.

But in the family history of the Gu family, it is privately recorded that Gu Shao died of depression - otherwise, with his old and strong physique, how could he not be able to resist a trek in the snow?

In the final analysis, Gu Shao didn't want to live anymore, so he would die so quickly.

These are the last words, so I won't talk about them for now.

A few days after Gu Shao left the imperial capital, Emperor Sutai encountered something incomprehensible when he was studying, and asked left and right, but the answer could not satisfy him, so he thought that the government and the opposition were all up, and it was recognized that Gu Shao was the best learner.

In the current situation, although this old minister will definitely not be appointed, it doesn't hurt to ask him to come over and clear his doubts, so when he sent someone to the Spring Lane Garden to summon him, he knew that the person went to the garden.

"Your Majesty, do you want to send someone to catch up?" The chamberlain who returned to the palace bowed down and asked for instructions.

"No need!" Emperor Sutai shook his head, "Originally, it was just a trivial matter, since the person has left, then forget it!" ”

The young emperor put down the ancient books in his hand that had circled several doubts, and instead asked about the preparations for the post-book ceremony, "Is it still smooth?" Nothing is missing, right? ”

Although the post-book ceremony was not as important as Emperor Sutai's enthronement ceremony, because the emperor was very attentive, Jian Xubai and other newly promoted ministers could not make it difficult for the queen without identity, so it went very smoothly.

It's just that on the day of the ceremony, there was no auspicious sign of the first glow after the snow like the day Emperor Sutai ascended the throne.

However, under the round field of "Ruixue Trillion Year", the whole process is still very happy.

The day after Nie Wuying entered the Weiyang Palace, Emperor Sutai issued a holy decree to support himself, expose Duanhua, support orthodoxy and so on, Jin Jian Xubai was the Duke of Yan, and allowed his son to attack without surrendering - mainly because Jian Xubai was originally the Duke of Yan, and he is now the most powerful courtier.

Therefore, he can only make a fuss about the descendants of the heirs, and after he is allowed to inherit the title in the future, he will still be the Duke of Yanguo.

As for the grandchildren, it depends on the ability of the descendants of Jane Xubai. Emperor Sutai is not a fool, and he will not easily give the Jian family a chance to hold power for generations, unless the merits and abilities of the descendants of the Jian family make him have nothing to say and have to be sealed.

On the same day, Song Yixiao was awarded the title of Mrs. Yanguo and rewarded a number of treasures such as coral treasure trees.

The couple's two current only heirs, Jian Qingyue, have not been forgotten, and they have been promoted to the county lord and changed their title to Leyuan.

Leyuan County is adjacent to Yishui County, and Jian Qingyue's Jin Feng is clearly for the old lady Duanmu.

However, when Jian Xubai entered the palace the next day to thank him, he deliberately resigned the title of Duke of Yan Guo, on the grounds that his father Jian Limiao and his maternal grandmother, Mrs. Duanmu, have no title to seal at the moment, and they dare not cross it as a junior.

Emperor Sutai praised his filial piety on the spot, so he restored the status of the old lady Duanmu as the princess of Chengyang, and awarded Jian Li Miaozheng the position of a first-class Taiwei - Rui Xun Yong system, in the early days of the Yong Dynasty, the third division, that is, the Taishi Taibao Taiwei, or the real power of the first product of the position.

But in the middle and late stages, it gradually evolved into a false title, which was specially used to add glory to important ministers, and in fact, he did not receive any errands.

Since the duke is already the highest rank of titles that can be received by courtiers, Jian Xubai's title comes from the inheritance of his grandfather, and he skipped his father's generation in the first place. Now Emperor Sutai can't say that he should return it to his father, so of course he can only give Jian Limiao a fictitious title of the same level, and it is impossible to give Jian Limiao a duke, right?

The reward of the Jian Xubai family officially opened the dividends of the new dynasty - the Liu family, the Shen family, Qiu Shuxia and other heroes who participated in the support of Emperor Sutai have all received great benefits.

Even Su Shaoge, who had already set a return date, was also named a filial uncle.

Su Shaoge didn't care much about this title, and when he entered the palace to thank him after receiving the order, he only behaved decently, and he was not excited.

Emperor Sutai thought that he was dissatisfied with Zhishi's return to his hometown, which is also a reasonable thing - but the current Emperor Sutai can't help him in this matter, although Jian Xubai recognizes Emperor Sutai's qualifications and vision, it doesn't mean that he will immediately bow down to Emperor Sutai and obey his orders.

What's more, even if Emperor Su Tai can speak on this matter, he may not be willing to leave Su Shaoge.

After all, a qualified king would not let his kingdom, except for the clan family, be too prosperous.

Even if it's his cousin's family.

Therefore, Emperor Sutai comforted Su Shaoge with a few words, rewarded him with a batch of treasures, and sent him out of the palace.

Unexpectedly, Su Shaoge had just proposed to retire, and before he left the palace, a small chamberlain outside hurriedly rushed in, and almost bumped into him in a hurry - before Emperor Su Tai could drink, he had already knelt on the ground with weak knees, and said in a trembling voice: "The Empress Dowager is gone!" ”

Emperor Su Tai and Su Shaoge subconsciously glanced at each other, frowning at the same time!
