Chapter 102: Discord
King Su is different from the regent, fair-skinned and handsome, and the most important thing is that King Su has a very good temper and has a smiling face when he meets everyone.
Even if King Su doesn't like his intention to greet him, he probably won't be like the regent, who gives people no face in public.
Because of this, Gu Wanyue was ready to move.
But helplessly, King Su is now drinking with Cheng Yi in the study.
Gu Wanyue shifted her mind from Gu Wanning's body to King Su, looked around, and saw when King Su would come over.
But helplessly, after a long time, King Su didn't come.
However, the small inner attendant beside King Su came to Gu Wanning's side, "Second lady Gu, King Su is invited." ”
Everyone was very puzzled, what King Su summoned Gu Wanning for.
Gu Wanning had a bad premonition in her heart.
King Su is a person who is harmless to humans and animals on the surface, but the prince who came out of the imperial city is what he shows on the surface.
Not to mention that King Su was also entrusted by Princess Jin.
"Dare to ask what King Su summoned me for?" Gu Wanning asked.
The waiter said: "It's about Lord Cheng." ”
Oh, it's not that King Su means anything to his wife and sister.
The fire of gossip around was gradually extinguished.
"Then I'll go with my father-in-law." Gu Wanning got up and thought about how to get out for a while.
I didn't want Gu Wanhua to grab the corner of Gu Wanning's clothes at this time, "Second sister, you are lonely, sister, I'll go with you." ”
Gu Wanning raised her eyebrows, bumped into Gu Wanhua's dodging eyes, and seemed to realize something for a while.
For Gu Wanhua, it is at an age when she doesn't know the height of the sky, and she wants to marry a good family, and she has soared from then on.
There is nothing wrong with pursuing power and wealth, but even if you are a concubine, you can't be so careless.
Gu Wanhua used to call Princess Su a cousin after herself, and King Su was also her cousin-in-law.
Although there are sisters who work with a husband in ancient times, the premise is that the sister takes the initiative to give.
My sister didn't mention it, but you want to be a concubine in a hurry, after all, you don't talk about morality.
From this aspect, Gu Wanhua and Gu Wanyue are somewhat similar.
"It's fine." Gu Wanning responded, and thanked Gu Wanhua very face-savingly.
It's better to let her suffer a little, knowing that these well-born princes have always been the most shrewd people.
Who can touch it and who can't touch it.
Whoever can bring benefits to themselves, they all have a scale in their hearts.
Gu Wanning and Gu Wanhua came to the outside of King Su's study with the inner attendant.
"Lord Tong Cheng still has something to say, Gu Erniang and wait outside first." The inner room glanced at Gu Wanhua again, "As for this Gu girl, don't follow in for a while, it's not you who the prince wants to see." ”
After that, the inner servant Shi Shiran left, leaving Gu Wanhua with an embarrassed face.
In addition to embarrassment, there is more regret.
"Does the fourth sister really want to see King Su?" This is the first time since Gu Wanhua chewed her tongue with someone outside that night, Gu Wanning spoke to her in a good voice, "Actually, it's not impossible." ”
"What's the solution?" Gu Wanhua asked excitedly.
Gu Wanning said, "Come here." ”
Gu Wanhua then clung to the past.
"Let's go and change our clothes and comb each other's hair, and you can go in for me in a while, and you will be able to do your wish."
"But in this way, King Su may be angry."
Gu Wanning told Gu Wanhua the pros and cons, "That's Prince Su, if you learn that you have been tricked, you must be very embarrassed, are you sure you want to go in instead of me?" ”
Gu Wanhua took it for granted and said: "King Su has such a good temper, even if he is angry, he will be scolded a few words at most." ”
"That's fine."
The person on the other side wanted to hit the south wall so greedily, of course Gu Wanning would not stop it, the two changed their clothes together and waited outside the door.
In the study, King Su and Cheng Yi sat opposite each other.
Both of them are gentlemen, but compared to King Su's soft eyebrows and eyes, Cheng Yi has no expression on his face in front of outsiders.
"So, this king has said so much, is Lord Cheng just unwilling to give this king a face and release the people of Qunfanglou?"
Cheng Yi said with a fair and selfless face: "Aunt Duan committed a crime, abducted and sold women from good families, and should be imprisoned for seven years according to the law. ”
"This is the criterion for being an official."
is a good person, not a personable nobleman, but with a cold face.
"Just looking at Lord Cheng's appearance, I will probably be deceived by you, and I think you are easy to talk to, after such a conversation, this king found out that Lord Chen, your temperament is really very stinky."
King Su complained, but he was not angry, but continued to discuss with Cheng Yi: "In front of this king, why should Lord Cheng say those high-sounding words, even if Aunt Duan is not particular, it is impossible to forcibly abduct the women of the good family, all this is just a crime for you to give her." ”
Cheng Yi said: "The lower officials have never wronged the innocent. ”
Aunt Duan's original intention was not to forcibly kidnap the women of the good family, but what she did was to force the good to become prostitutes.
Even if all this was instructed by others, Aunt Duan refused to reveal the real murderer behind it, so she could only bear this responsibility herself.
"Unless," Cheng Yi looked directly into King Su's eyes, "King Su is willing to admit his guilt, and the lower officials should commute Aunt Duan's sentence." ”
King Su was stunned, he was amused by Cheng Yi's directness.
"Master Cheng, don't be kidding." King Su laughed for a while and said: "Count this king begging you, Cheng Yi is one of the few people under this king who can make money for this king, don't hide it from you, if there is no Qunfang Building, it will be difficult for this king to support the palace with those fortunes." ”
The first emperor's concubine actually spoke to the prefect in such a humble tone, but King Su didn't care at all, and his eyes were earnest and sincere.
Cheng Yi replied: "King Su is joking. ”
"You're boring." King Su suddenly approached Cheng Yi, "But seriously, you don't give face to this king, and you insist on punishing Aunt Duan, is it because of the so-called strict laws, or is it for personal feelings?" ”
Cheng Yi looked up at King Su, who looked extremely interested.
"It's for the strictness of the law, and it's for personal affection." Cheng Yi said word by word to King Su: "Gu Erniang grew up with Xia Guan, and was regarded as a younger sister by Xia Guan, and Xia Guan did not allow anyone to hurt her. ”
King Su sat back at once and said, "It's boring." ”
"Sister? Gu Erniang doesn't have a brother, I want you to have one more brother. ”
"But the Ming people don't say dark words, your thoughts, this king understands."
"But now that the regent's thoughts about Gu Erniang are revealed, aren't you afraid?"
Cheng Yi recalled everything he had seen today.
All the tacit understanding between the regent and A-Ning is intimate, and it is undoubtedly a blade that pierces him in the heart.
The most desperate thing is not that you have lost, but that you think you have lost and regained, but the result is still empty.
In the meantime, despair cannot be expressed in words.
He has always been calm, but he also has a sense of pain.
A pair of eyes surged, and finally returned to calm.
"Xia Guan only wishes her happiness." Cheng Yi said.
