Chapter Seventy-Six: Collecting Evidence for Gu Ning
Gu Qing had just returned to Gu's mansion on the front foot, and Zhao Gonggong also came with people behind, and the entourage with him carried a heavy wooden box, opened it and saw that it was full of precious antiques, calligraphy and paintings.
Everyone in the mansion was surprised, and Gu Lin's order outside the mansion was also unclear.
Gonggong Zhao only smiled and said: "What the emperor explained earlier, I hope that the third lady must keep it in mind." These things are all thank you gifts from the emperor in advance, can the third lady accept them?"
Isn't this a clear push of her onto the ondol?
Gu Qing hid behind Yu Niang, and Gu Lin's gaze was cast in front of her, she drooped her head, thinking in her heart, this is the end, she just came out of the palace, maybe her father will think.
The corners of Liu Ye's eyebrows were swept away, and he was also puzzled.
"Don't come over Shane yet?" Gu Lin reminded in a low voice.
Gu Qing hurriedly walked a few steps forward, walked through the crowd, and said to Zhao Gonggong with his chin head: "Thank you Emperor Longen." ”
She only saw a dusty shadow floating in front of her, followed by the voice of Zhao Gonggong: "The emperor values the third lady, and I hope that the third miss will not disappoint the emperor." ”
Where did the word "valuation" come from? What Zhao Gonggong said really made her miserable. After a few words of greeting with Gu Lin, after all, Gu Ning is a concubine sitting firmly in the palace, and the bridge relationship still needs to be built well, and there is a fortune telling prophecy first, maybe the phoenix position will fall on whose head in the future.
After Gonggong Zhao left, Gu Qing stared at the large box of jewels, her scalp was numb, and Yu Niang carefully interrogated what the emperor ordered?
Liu Ye returned to the courtyard, thinking left and right, but didn't figure it out, what kind of ability does Gu Qing's little girl have to do things for the emperor? She is just a female streamer, and she doesn't have a few capable assistants in her hands, what can she do for the emperor?
"I don't know if the second lady knows about this?" The maid asked.
Gonggong Zhao brought people to Gu Mansion to spread the emperor's message, and told everyone that Gu Qing was working for the emperor, and those who didn't know thought that some earth-shattering task had been arranged. He also said that the emperor valued it, but he really made a face for Gu Qing.
"Even if Ning'er knows about this, I will send someone to tell her. "Liu Ye is a thoughtful person, her biological daughter is a concubine in the palace, and it is difficult to step by step, what if Gu Qing steals her position halfway?
Then he wrote a handwritten letter and sent it to the palace.
At dusk, Gu Lin summoned Gu Qing to the study. In the quiet room, only the sound of flipping through the books could be heard, Gu Qing stood aside for a long time, and it had been half an hour before her father called her over, but her father ignored her completely, and only buried himself in official business.
After waiting for a long time, my mind began to wander.
Gu Lin's heart was like a group of horses stepping on, full of potholes, he couldn't tell whether he was worried or afraid, he couldn't help but feel bored when he flipped through the books in his hand, and his third daughter stood beside him.
He wanted to ask a lot of questions, such as, how did you get acquainted with the emperor, what was the emperor's errand, etc., etc., but he couldn't.
Murong also inquired with him about Gu Qing's life experience, he knew that he couldn't hide it for a lifetime, even if he could endure it for one more day, but the world was unpredictable, and he couldn't influence anything.
If you really can't hide it, you can only push Gu Qing away. If he had to make a choice between Gu Qing and Gu Ning, he could only choose his own daughter.
"Ahem, Gu Qingna, sit down. Slowly put down the book in his hand and talked to Gu Qing.
With his consent, Gu Qing said goodbye and sat sideways on the chair beside her, the atmosphere in the room was a little dull, and she had no interest in being naughty and mischievous in the past.
"Do you know that Ning'er is in the palace, what is the most important?"
How do you talk about the second sister?
She pondered and thought, "Status. ”
"Of course, status is important, but there is one thing that is more important than status, and that is the emperor's favor. ”
Gu Lin was afraid, afraid that Gu Qing would fall into the eyes of the emperor because of this, and also afraid that the two sisters would turn against each other, saying that it was fake to say that they had no feelings, after all, they had been with him for so many years.
Father's words, Gu Qing listened confusedly, for the concubine, the emperor's grace is very important, but why did her father tell her this?
"You two sisters are the pearls of my Gu Mansion, and I also hope that you can live well in the rest of your lives. Qing'er, can you promise me anything today?"
"Father, it's okay to speak. ”
Gu Lin hesitated slightly, and said: "In other days, if there is a-for-tat confrontation with Ning'er, you must remember the love of sisterhood." ”
If Gu Lin hadn't said this in an extremely serious tone, Gu Qing would have thought that his father was joking with himself. She never thought that she would be opposite to her second sister in the future, but her father thought too much.
"Why did my father say this? My second sister and I have long been like sisters, how can such a trivial matter for no reason be so serious that it becomes an enemy with the second sister?"
thought that her father would ask her about Zhao's father-in-law's gift, but she didn't expect to ask about an unrelated matter.
Thinking that he was serious, Gu Lin smiled reluctantly and eased the atmosphere: "I just suddenly remembered, just say it casually, Qing'er don't care." I think I'm getting older, and I'm always worried about this, worried about that. ”
Even so, my father still pays more attention to rest, and his body is important. ”
"I see, you've just returned home, so go spend more time with your mother. ”
After finishing the business, he was about to drive people away, and it happened that Gu Qing wanted to ask Yu Niang about the red flower, so he closed the door and left without stopping for long.
Along the way, her father's words buzzed in her head like scriptures, and she said that she didn't care if it was false, but she was curious about why her father said this. Even if Liu Ye had no estrangement from Meiyuan, she had never had an awkward relationship with Gu Ning because of this, and sighed, her father was still old, and he always liked to think about it.
——————
In the palace, Gu Ning unfolded the suppose that came in from outside the palace, his eyes swept over one by one, his expression did not change significantly, and he tore the supple into pieces casually after reading it.
"Mother, what is written in the letter?" Xiaoyu asked.
Gu Ning sighed, looked at the debris all over the ground, and replied seemingly casually: "It's just a family letter, and my mother complained to me about the small things in the house." ”
It seems that she doesn't plan to tell anyone around her everything.
Xiaoyu didn't ask much. Gu Ning's eyebrows added a hint of sorrow, she got up and leaned against the window, Gu Qing is the sister she has always hurt, not her own child, it is better than her own child. However, in the letter, Liu Ye's words were passionate, accusing Gu Qing of colluding with the emperor, and Zhao Gonggong chased him to the house to give gifts.
Can you chase her to the house to give gifts? Maybe if she is left in the palace again, what will happen.
In just half a year after entering the palace, her temperament has changed a lot, and now she has to look forward to everything she does. Just like at this moment, she clearly knows Gu Qing's nature and her character, but after hearing the nonsense of others, she will still be angry.
What's more, it's worry, it's fear, it's fear that their nonsense will come true, and it's afraid that Gu Qinghalal will become a piece of her heart.
"The slave maid heard just now, it seems that Su Guifei is pregnant, the emperor ordered, and gave several maids, and said that she must serve Su Guifei well......" Speaking of the back, the voice became smaller and smaller, Xiaoyu paid attention to Gu Ning's expression, and saw that she was still looking out the window in a daze, so she didn't say any more.
Gu Ning didn't hear it? She just didn't want to face it, thinking that the child in her belly was framed before she could cover the heat, and in the end she was convicted.
Although I don't know who is ruthless, but since she has done this to her, she will definitely not let others have a good time, and the days in the palace have been peaceful for a long time, and it should also set off some storms.
——————
The four people in the room gathered around the table, all with solemn faces.
The medicine was opened and scattered on the table, Gu Qing found out the tiny safflower inside, picked up one or two pieces, and asked Yu Niang repeatedly: "Can safflower really make people lose their babies?"
Yu Niang nodded: "It's true." ”
After repeatedly getting Yu Niang's affirmative answer, Gu Qing couldn't hold it back, and stared at the small piece of safflower tightly, the medicine was prescribed by the Tai Hospital, and it was also taken by the Tai Hospital, and the man's words were also a little greasy.
said before that it was Gu Ning's failure to take precautions that caused the fetus to die in the womb. She never believed in this conclusion, and even guessed that there were other concubines in the palace who were framed behind her back, maybe her guess was not wrong.
What people say when they are unintentional is the most convincing.
The man said that all the saffron was given to Concubine Ning. The medicine was taken by him, and it was also boiled by the palace maids, so who could take so much saffron in the Tai Hospital?
"As soon as you came back, you asked me what the safflower was for, and you didn't tell me yet, what is the matter?" Yu Niang asked.
Gu Qing was very sad, supporting her chin with her hands, the red flowers on the table were particularly conspicuous, she never hid from her mother, and she told everything she heard and thought.
Yu Niang was so surprised that she couldn't speak, she didn't know about Gu Ning's stillbirth, and she heard that it might be caused by safflower, so she shook her head again and again and was extremely regretful.
She has already seen the changes in the harem, each has vicious tricks to deal with each other, thinking that back then, when she was pregnant with Gu Qing and finally gave birth to her mother and son safely, it could be regarded as their escape from death, and the sharp and sharp claws made people suffocate.
On the day Gu Ning entered the palace, she had already thought of this, but she didn't expect everything to come so quickly. In today's harem, there are many beauties, most of them are idle in the palace as decorations, and the real scenery in the harem is nothing more than those women.
What about regrets? Just take it as fate, and so is her Qing'er.
Gu Lin discussed with her whether she wanted to tell Gu Qing her true identity, but she didn't agree. First, things have not yet reached the last step, and if there is still room for maneuver, it is not necessarily, and secondly, she is not ready, after telling Gu Qing everything at that time, I am afraid that Gu Fu will ...... They couldn't stay any longer.
"I don't know who is so ruthless!" Ah Huan was indignant, after all, Gu Ning was from the Gu Mansion, and he could be regarded as bullying them.
"The second sister's previous state has been bad, I see that she is often in a trance, and she is in a daze all day, hey. ”
