"What did the four princes say?" Gu Wanyin didn't guess much, and asked softly.

Zhou Ruijing's voice was a little low, as if he was faintly worried: "The fourth prince didn't say anything, and suddenly mentioned the second uncle." ”

"Second master?" Gu Wanyin was stunned.

"Dow was also mentioned." Zhou Ruijing said again. This time she saw that he was indeed a little worried.

However, at this point, it is indeed time to worry! What is the relationship between the second master and Dow? Since the Four Princes mentioned it, it only means one thing - that is, the Four Princes knew about the Second Master's outer room!

Then, the meaning of the fourth prince when he mentioned this matter is naturally self-evident: it is clearly to use the matter of the second master to blackmail the Zhou family!

"It seems that the four princes have known about this matter for a long time." Gu Wanyin said slowly, her eyebrows furrowed slightly. But he stretched out his hand to hold Zhou Ruijing, and Yingying looked at him and asked softly: "What is the prince going to do?" ”

Zhou Ruijing did not hesitate: "No matter what, our Zhou family cannot participate in the partisan dispute." Even though the four princes thought that he could hide from the world, how could the saint not take any precautions? If this was the case, the saint would not have sat on the dragon chair back then. "The person who can defeat the other brothers to climb the dragon chair naturally knows how the dragon chair is to the princes, and it is impossible to really have no defense.

"If the Fourth Prince really reveals-" Gu Wanyin hesitated for a moment, then spoke again hesitantly. If others knew about it, the old lady's idea would not work. Since the fourth prince had known about this matter for a long time, he had to say that he had to delay in breaking it, just to keep it and threaten the Zhou family. Or maybe there's some other conspiracy. But there is one thing that can never be wrong - that is, the four princes want to be unfavorable to the Zhou family.

"The fourth prince will be in a meeting for a while, and there will be no action." Zhou Ruijing pondered for a moment and then said slowly, his eyes deep and dark. A glimmer of light flashed, and he said confidently: "The most important thing now is the matter on the embankment, this juncture. The four princes should not act rashly. Even if we want to move, we will probably have to wait for our Zhou family to take action. In the face of the fourth prince mentioning this matter, he has not yet made any statement. Since the four princes have carefully arranged. No matter how you have to wait for a result.

Gu Wanyin nodded, but she still couldn't stop worrying in her heart. couldn't help but instruct Zhou Ruijing to say: "It's been an eventful time recently, so it's better to be careful in everything." ”

"Hmm." Zhou Ruijing replied lightly, and then said: "This matter is still told to the old lady for the time being." ”

"Of course I know." Gu Wanyin sighed, if the old lady knew about this matter again, she would definitely be excited, and what would happen then. I can't say for sure. To be on the safe side, it's better not to tell the old lady. But-"When I go back to the prince to find out what the second master means, I will also go to the second wife to reveal one or two." "You can't put this thing off all the time, you know, the night is long and there are many dreams. Now the four princes are watching from the side, and if it goes on like this, no one knows what will happen.

Zhou Ruijing responded, and Fuqi and the two stopped talking and walked out tacitly.

At the same time, the old lady yard. Manna was feeding the old lady medicine.

The old lady looked depressed, very different from her usual energetic appearance, and she looked completely exhausted. And he has been frowning, as if there is something he can't let go.

Manna sees. He was busy and persuaded softly: "The old lady doesn't have to worry, things will always pass." The old people all said that the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge, and now the old lady is useless to worry about it no matter how much, so you have to take care of your body. When you're in good shape, it doesn't matter what else you do. ”

"Ganlu, this incident is not a trivial matter." The old lady sighed, her brows locked even tighter: "I don't know if this time it will work." If it doesn't work—"

"Don't think about this old lady first, it's only serious to drink the medicine quickly. It is said that children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, old lady, didn't you say the same in the past? Ganlu smiled and comforted, but in her heart she complained about the second master. If it weren't for the second master's business, how could the old lady be so worried?

"If it is not handled well, this matter is not handled, I am afraid that even Jing'er and they will be implicated." When the old lady thought of this, she felt extremely blocked. The saint already had a lot of fears about the Zhou family, although the queen mother helped him speak, but he was constantly guarding against suppression, both openly and secretly. Now that the second master is doing this, isn't it just giving the saint a reason?

When Ganlu heard this, she was stunned, and a complicated look flashed on her face. If you look closely, it is not difficult to see the worry in her eyes. After hesitating for a moment, Ganlu couldn't help but ask, "Then what is the way to save it?" Shi Ziye—"

"What else can I do now? There are only two paths! Either hide it or turn yourself in! But if you turn yourself in, our Zhou family is ...... now Can't afford to take that risk. The old lady sighed softly. If only the second master is convicted, it will be fine. But the previous examples are still vivid, how dare she gamble with the fate of the whole Zhou family?

Ganlu suddenly became silent, and complained even more about the second master in her heart.

If it weren't for the second master being so confused, how could the Zhou family be in such a situation?

After staying for a while, Manna came back to her senses, looked at the medicine bowl in her hand and hurriedly opened her mouth to persuade a few words, and the old lady drank all the medicine.

The manna carefully wiped off the residual liquid on the old lady's lips, and thoughtfully took water to rinse the old lady's mouth.

The old lady looked at the nectar for a moment, and suddenly said in a voice: "When I reach the limit, I will return the deed of sale to you, except for your lowly status." It's not in vain that you've served me all these years. ”

Manna was panicked when she heard this, and her eyes were instantly covered with a layer of mist, wet and full of horror: "The old lady is trying to drive me away?" Ganlu grew up in Zhennan Wangfu, where did she go from here? Gritting her teeth, she said resolutely: "Even if I die, I will not leave here;." If the old lady goes, I will become a sister-in-law and give the old lady a lifetime of spiritual guard! ”

"Nonsense." The old lady frowned and rebuked in a low voice: "How old are you?" I let you out of the house, naturally I have my arrangement. I don't know what I remembered, and suddenly smiled again: "I also know why you don't want to go out of the house, you have been with me for so many years, how do I not know your thoughts?" ”

In a word, Ganlu's face turned crimson, and he hurriedly lowered his head, so embarrassed that he couldn't raise his head, and only whispered to shirk: "What did the old lady say, the slave didn't understand...... she didn't understand" said that she didn't understand, but Ganlu had already guessed what the old lady was going to say next! At the moment, I was apprehensive in my heart, and for a moment I was sweet and happy, and I was afraid and worried.

"Although Jing'er is a little colder, she is also considerate, careful, affectionate, and righteous." A smile appeared on the corner of the old lady's mouth, and she said as if she was deliberately teasing nectar.

A pair of white and delicate hands with manna are almost twisted into a ball.

Seeing this, the old lady gradually restrained herself and smiled: "If she is accepted as a girl, it is better to be a concubine who is really brought in from outside." At least, whether you have children in the future or not, you will not suffer. Let me tell you a few more words, Jing'er will not treat you badly. Even if Gu is reluctant, there is no way. In the past two years, she knows the situation best. It's not as good as it used to be. Maybe one day she will die, or gradually become unclear, until then, she has arranged everything around her to leave with confidence. Manna has served her for so many years, and she has been with her every day to take care of her, and the friendship is naturally not comparable to ordinary girls. Naturally, she wanted to give Manna a good place to go.

When Ganlu heard these words, the mist in her eyes suddenly became even better. Secretly raised her hand to wipe the moistness from the corners of her eyes, and she was extremely grateful to the old lady in her heart. Speaking of which, she is just a girl, she has not endured hardships over the years, but she didn't expect the old lady to arrange it so thoughtfully for her!

It's just that...... There was still a trace of hesitation and worry in Ganlu's heart, and finally he couldn't help but say quietly: "But what if the prince is unwilling?" Last time—"If he had been interesting, he wouldn't have returned her to the old lady last time."

The old lady pondered for a moment, but shook her head: "Since ancient times, which man has not had three wives and four concubines?" Jing'er didn't agree at the beginning, it was just a piece of filial piety for my sake. When that time came, he naturally had nothing to disagree with. "It's just a concubine, and it's not a big deal, how can you disagree? Manna has a good character, and people are good-looking, who will refuse if you think about it?

If you say you don't want to, only Gu Wanyin is unwilling. But this matter is not something that Gu Wanyin can call the shots.

Hearing this, the last trace of hesitation in Ganlu's heart also dissipated, and she lowered her head and said shyly: "Everything is up to the old lady." Manna has no complaints. ”

The old lady smiled and nodded, and then sighed again: "Speaking of which, when I close my eyes, what I am most worried about is the second room." The second wife is angry, and the second wife is soft and xingzi. is pinched by the second wife everywhere, and I don't know how I will live in the future. I wasn't worried before, but now that this happened, the second wife must be resentful in her heart if she doesn't say it. In case they have a different heart...... "The second wife has firmly held the silver in her hands all these years, and if the second wife has a different heart, the life of the second room will be sad." Zhou Ruiming is okay to say, after all, he was born to the second wife, but what about the second master? It is inevitable that you will be restrained everywhere. The family is restless, how can the second master gain a foothold outside? Fuqi two, the same bed and different dreams, is the most taboo.

Ganlu was about to persuade a few words, but she heard a girl outside come in and say, "The prince and the princess are here." ”

Hearing this, the old lady immediately smiled and forced herself to sit up: "Quick, let them in.;
