All the way back to the Queen Mother's Palace, the old lady had indeed been settled, and was planning to take a nap. Gu Wanyin went in lightly, but saw that the old lady was not asleep, but her face was full of sadness.

"Old lady." Gu Wanyin called, naturally walked over, sat on the edge of the bed, stretched out her hand, and pinched the old lady's legs.

Because there was no one else in the house, it was convenient to speak, so the old lady sighed and said directly: "The Queen Mother didn't agree." ”

Gu Wanyin's subordinates were stunned. Then he frowned, and looked at the old lady with some surprise: "Then the queen mother-" What did she say?

"The Queen Mother only said one sentence." The old lady sank her face, and her tone was a little cold: "The Queen Mother only said that King Qin is excellent." If our Zhou family wants to maintain its current prosperity, it should bet early. ”

Hearing this, Gu Wanyin's heart suddenly sank - the meaning of the Queen Mother's words was clearly to let the Zhou family support King Qin in competing for the throne. In other words, what the Queen Mother supported was indeed King Qin. Then, the Queen Mother naturally will not win over the courtiers in King Qin. Even, I can't say that the Queen Mother will feel unhappy because of the Zhou family's ignorance.

"And what do you mean, old lady?" Since the Queen Mother said so, how did the old lady care about it in her heart? Is it support, or is it ...... Gu Wanyin looked up at the old lady, lest she miss a hint of expression.

The old lady lowered her eyes, and said lightly for a long time: "Although King Qin is good, the Zhou family can't do things like forming a party for personal gain." We can only be loyal to the Holy Lord and the Prince. As long as King Qin is really made the crown prince, the Zhou family will naturally be loyal. ”

In other words, it also means that if King Qin did not become the crown prince in the end, then it would naturally not be within the scope of the Zhou family's allegiance. When the time comes, the King of Qin will only be the King of Qin. Although he is a prince of the royal family, the Zhou family is also a prince with a foreign surname. Naturally, there is no such thing as allegiance.

Gu Wanyin breathed a sigh of relief slightly—it was good that the old lady was able to insist on this. She was really afraid that the old lady would be shaken for a while, so she would make some foolish decision.

"The Queen Mother is afraid that she won't help Jing'er." The old lady sighed. The brows were tightly clenched, and the bottom of his eyes was even more worried, and he couldn't get rid of it. "Look at the situation. I'm afraid that King Qin will definitely go. "With the support of the Queen Mother. The support of the ministers is even a saint. Nor can we go our own way.

After hearing the old lady say what the queen mother meant, Gu Wanyin guessed that she was afraid that King Qin would definitely go back. I just don't know, what will the saint react after listening to her words that imply mysteries? Do you believe it, or do you not believe it? Do you suspect King Qin, or do you think she is playing tricks?

She had no way of knowing any of this. At present, there is only one word that can be done - that is, "wait". Wait for the saint to make a will, wait for Zhou Ruijing to be safe and sound, and wait for the turmoil to subside. But before that, maybe she and the old lady could only spend time in this palace?

"Actually, you really shouldn't stay today;." The old lady was silent for a moment, then suddenly sighed again. In his words, there was some complaint: "You are still young and don't understand the doorway here." The saint is clearly suspicious of Jing'er. That's how I was detained......"

Gu Wanyin was slightly stunned, but then she smiled and interrupted the old lady's complaint softly: "Old lady, in fact, I understand. But this time. If I can reassure the saint a little more like this, wouldn't it be better for the Zhou family? She was still embarrassed to say that it was good for Zhou Ruijing. However, if Zhou Ruijing is good, can the Zhou family be fine? After all, now the Zhou family relies on the big house to support the door beam.

The old lady was stunned, and was a little annoyed that Gu Wanyin interrupted her like this. However, the old lady thought about it quietly, and she did understand that Gu Wanyin was indeed doing this for the good of the Zhou family. It's just that the old lady is uncomfortable in the end, so naturally she doesn't have a good face and praise.

At that moment, the old lady stopped talking, and Suo Xing closed her eyes to recuperate. After a while, he fell asleep.

Gu Wanyin didn't feel the slightest sleep. Just thinking about what Duan Guifei said repeatedly, an hour passed like this.

In the afternoon, the Queen Mother asked Duan Guifei to temporarily arrange a palace for them to live in, and looking at the posture, she really wanted to keep them for a long time. also sent a few female eunuchs to come over to serve, but it would not be inconvenient. It's just that in the end, it's not in their own home, the old lady and Gu Wanyin are somewhat restrained, and they can't let go of their hands and feet.

And the most unsettling thing is that since they lived in the palace, the news from outside has not reached their ears at all. Even Zhou Ruijing's news was not told by anyone.

Xu is because of King Qin, the Queen Mother no longer has such enthusiasm, but is a little cold. Fortunately, Duan Guifei is still diligent, and often sends people over or asks them to go to the imperial garden to enjoy the flowers and listen to the piano, but it is not too boring.

After the third day of moving in, the Holy Lord finally made a decree in Gu Wanyin's fearful waiting—ordering the King of Qin to investigate the matter in Hebei. However, as soon as he turned his head, he ordered King Jin to go with him, ostensibly to help, but in fact, everyone understood that it was an inspector. As for who is the inspector...... Think about it, King Qin should know it?

Hearing the news, Gu Wanyin only felt that a big stone in her chest suddenly fell to the ground. If someone restrains King Qin, it is naturally difficult for him to trouble Zhou Ruijing again, at least, on the surface. As for secretly, I believe King Jin will also help? After all, being able to grasp the handle of King Qin, for King Jin, is naturally only good and no harm.

Moreover, Duan Guifei also said in person that she would let King Jin spare no effort to help Zhou Ruijing. As long as Zhou Ruijing really didn't do anything rebellious.

Zhou Ruijing naturally could not rebel.

Gu Wanyin is convinced of this.

This result can be described as a great joy for all. Gu Wanyin has nothing to complain about. The old lady was naturally satisfied.

On this day, someone came over to ask Gu Wanyin to go over and talk. And that person is none other than Concubine Rong.

Gu Wanyin hesitated for a long time, but finally refused. Not to mention, now is a special period, so it's better not to meet Concubine Rong. Otherwise, it's not good to misunderstand something. The most important thing is that Concubine Rong somehow offended the saint, and she really fell out of favor. Therefore, she naturally felt that it was best to avoid Concubine Rong. It's not that she has power, but that she is afraid that after the saint finds out, he will remember her relationship with Concubine Rong and be angry.

Regarding Gu Wanyin's behavior, the old lady praised it rarely: "You are also a sensible;." As for why the old lady didn't want her to contact Concubine Rong, she naturally didn't know the reason. But I didn't care much.

It's interesting, the person who came to invite Gu Wanyin just left on the front foot, and the person from Duan Guifei on the back foot arrived: "The princess, the concubine Niangniang, please come over, there is something important to discuss." ”

Without waiting for Gu Wanyin to speak, the old lady frowned and glanced at Gu Wanyin. That means, naturally, I don't want Gu Wanyin to go.

It's just that seeing that the person who came said something was serious, and it was serious, and as soon as she lived in the palace, Duan Guifei took care of it a lot, and helped in that matter, Gu Wanyin couldn't refuse, so she had to respond.

The old lady's face naturally became more and more gloomy. It's just that Gu Wanyin can't care about so much.

In fact, she didn't know what the old lady meant - after all, the queen mother didn't seem to like Duan Guifei very much. In addition, Duan Guifei is the biological mother of King Jin, so the Queen Mother naturally doesn't want them to get too close to Duan Guifei.

It's just that in the end, he doesn't reach out and hit the smiling person. Duan Guifei didn't have any side requests, but she still helped like that. These days too...... It's a little unreasonable to be reasonable. Besides, can't you really have something important to look for her?

After Gu Wanyin whispered back to the old lady, she hurriedly followed the visitor.

walked all the way to Duan Guifei's palace, but saw that Duan Guifei had already made tea and waited. Seeing Gu Wanyin coming, he beckoned and smiled: "Come and sit." Try the freshly delivered tea. I drank better than last year. ”

Gu Wanyin actually didn't know much about this, and she just echoed it at the moment. Thinking of the old lady's appearance, and she herself felt that she should avoid suspicion at this time, so she only said a few words of greeting before she dared to speak: "The concubine is looking for a concubine, but what are your orders?" ”

The sooner the things were done, the sooner they would have returned.

Duan Guifei seemed to see through her thoughts, looked at her with a smile, and only spoke after a while: "What, I can't wait to go back?" ”

Gu Wanyin was a little embarrassed, but she still lowered her head casually and smiled lightly: "It's just that I saw that person was in a hurry, and I was a little worried in my heart." ”

"I see." Duan Guifei nodded, but it was not difficult to know just by looking at that look, but she was afraid that she would not believe it in her heart.

However, Gu Wanyin didn't want to say anything, she just didn't see it, and waited quietly for Duan Guifei to say what was going on to find her.

Duan Guifei was not embarrassed, and said with a smile at the moment: "Actually, it's not a big deal, it's just that I heard about some things about the Gu family, so I specially asked you to come over and ask." ”

Hearing this, Gu Wanyin's heart sank, thinking that something bad had happened, and immediately raised her head eagerly to look at Duan Guifei - what happened to the Gu family? Who did not make it? It's not a trivial matter to make Duan Guifei talk about it in such a special way?

Looking at Gu Wanyin's anxious look, Duan Guifei laughed out loud and said: "Actually, it's not a big deal, you don't have to worry, I just ask, and I don't want to do anything to you, you make this appearance, others only think I'm going to do something to you." ”

Where is Gu Wanyin still in the mood to laugh? My heart was already very anxious. At that moment, he said: "Concubine Niangniang, please tell me, what happened to the Gu family?;
