Chapter 407: Hold it with your own hands
Gu Wanyin and Zhou Ruijing, as soon as they returned home, they went directly to the old lady's yard. However, she was stopped outside the courtyard, and the little girl who guarded the door looked at Zhou Ruijing with a look of panic and embarrassment: "Lord Shizi, this is the old lady's order - you and the princess, you can't go in-"
Seeing the little girl like this, Gu Wanyin couldn't bear it, pulled Zhou Ruijing, and saw that Zhou Ruijing's expression eased, so she turned her head to look at the little girl again, and asked softly: "The old lady can say, why is she willing to see us?" "The old lady's spleen doesn't look like a sulking master hiding in the house, presumably, there is a hindsight? It's nothing more than wanting to embarrass her.
Zhou Ruijing naturally understands the old lady, and when he saw Gu Wanyin asking like this, he also felt in his heart that it was true. Old lady, there must be a follow-up.
The little girl glanced at Zhou Ruijing in horror, buried her head deeply, and replied after a while: "The old lady said that unless the prince has figured it out, he can't go in." ”
Figured it out? Figure out what? Gu Wanyin glanced at Zhou Ruijing, and suddenly felt a shock in her heart - perhaps, the old lady forced Zhou Ruijing to make a decision, whether to submit to the Queen Mother, or insist on standing on the side of the saint. Now, it is no longer such a simple matter as establishing a prince, and the queen mother said that today, which naturally has exposed the family that has always supported the queen mother, that is, the saint's foreign family. With the suspicious Xingzi of the saint, naturally from now on, these families are afraid that they are going to slowly go uphill, right?
So now, it can be regarded as a silent battle. A battle between the family and the imperial power.
It's just that the confrontation between the Queen Mother and the Holy One is somewhat ridiculous - the kissing muzi should have blood thicker than water, but now it is for such a thing,-for-tat. Today, the Queen Mother persecuted the saint like that, but she couldn't see the flesh and blood affection in it. Perhaps, this is the sorrow of being in heaven? What father-son affection, what blood is thicker than water. None of them apply.
Zhou Ruijing could naturally think that there was a bit of darkness in his inky eyes. To this day, why can't the old lady see through the current situation? Lowering his eyes, Zhou Ruijing suddenly sighed, and said in a deep voice: "Since the old lady is still angry, let's go back first." When the old lady is gone, we'll come back. "Finished. actually pulled Gu Wanyin away.
Gu Wanyin didn't understand Zhou Ruijing's feelings? At the moment, I only felt a burst of distress in my heart, and I couldn't help but look at him, and whispered comfort as I walked: "Don't mind too much, everyone's way of looking at things is always different." "The old lady can't see through it. But she is willing to help King Qin, so naturally she has her reasons.
Zhou Ruijing nodded, but didn't say much.
All the way back to his small courtyard. Zhou Ruijing still didn't say much, and after only instructing Gu Wanyin to eat something, he went to the study. Gu Wanyin understood that he was uncomfortable, so she didn't say much, but only told the girls not to disturb at will.
Danzhi saw that Gu Wanyin had been silent, and her expression was also a little dazed, and she was naturally worried in her heart. Seeing that she drank less than half a bowl of chicken soup and refused to use it again, she suddenly became anxious and hurriedly persuaded her: "What's the matter?" How do you go out well and come back like this? It's just that it doesn't suit the taste, so it's better to take a few more sips. Even if it's not for yourself, it's for the sake of thinking about it. ”
Listening to Danzhi's persuasion, Bimei and Suqin also persuaded each of them.
However, Gu Wanyin never took another sip. Instead, he pushed the bowl away and said, "I feel disgusting, I really can't drink it." I'm not hungry either, Suo Xing is waiting. I'm tired and want to take a break. "After going through so many things today, she is really tired, her spirit is very tired, and her head hurts faintly.
And thinking of the old lady's attitude, she felt even more headache. Old lady this time. It's about time to get hands-on. Otherwise, there wouldn't be such a big move. In fact, the old lady wants Zhou Ruijing to bow her head, but her to bow her head. Because she is not obedient enough, not supple enough. That's why the old lady is so annoyed. Such disgust. Yinlu had already told her this. She also knew it in her heart.
Although this time it was a contest between the Queen Mother and the Holy Lord, the old lady's words and her words were also-for-tat. Old lady, it's natural to be upset. At the same time, the old lady wanted to take this opportunity to let her and Zhou Ruijing come into line. The current Zhou Ruijing is more worthy of wooing than before. After all, the strength of the Praetorian Guard should not be underestimated.
Crooked on the couch and muttered for a while, Gu Wanyin turned her head sideways and instructed Danzhi, who covered the quilt for her: "Go to the old lady's yard and inquire, what is the old lady doing here." She didn't believe it, she and Zhou Ruijing came back like this, and if she didn't eat the old lady's set, the old lady would be indifferent. Moreover, the old lady's behavior will definitely provoke many well-intentioned people to move. At this time, what to do is to prevent the slightest.
Danzhi nodded in response, whispered another word of persuasion, and then withdrew. And Gu Wanyin closed her eyes and rested. She was also really tired, and as soon as she closed her eyes, she quickly fell asleep. But in the end, he couldn't sleep well, and he kept dreaming, dreaming of many people and many things, and all kinds of troubles.
Bimei, who was guarding next to her, saw that her eyelashes couldn't help fluttering, and her eyebrows frowned and seemed to be very uncomfortable, that is, she knew that she had made the nightmare, so she hurriedly reached out and pushed her: "Princess Shizi, wake up quickly." ”
Gu Wanyin woke up from her dream all of a sudden, exhaled slightly, and found that her underwear was already soaked, and it was sticky to her body at this time, which was extremely uncomfortable. After taking a deep breath and calming her breath, she spoke: "Go fetch water, I want to bathe." ”
Bi Mei hurriedly went out to order, and Gu Wanyin saw that she was going out, so she leaned softly on the mat, unable to lift up her strength. Just now, she dreamed of the past. Not as a child, not at any other time, but in the past. In the past before being born again. After so many years, she recalls the original situation, but more and more she only feels very dreamy—perhaps, it is not that she has been reborn at all, but that she has a dream, a warning dream; The dream was too real, so she took it seriously.
And Fang Cai, the dream, was at that time. At that time, she was chaotic and naïve, and she only thought that forbearance would lead to a good result. But when the time came, she realized that it was so wrong. She shouldn't have left her fate in the hands of anyone else, that would be just making herself cheap and stupid. In the eyes of others, her forbearance is worthless.
She should hold her destiny firmly. Take your happiness into your own hands! Not even, as it is now, going with the flow. Because in this way, you will only end up with exhaustion! For example, the old lady had taken precautions in the morning, or had taken measures, then the scene would never be like today! At least, she won't be pushed up and forced to make a choice! In this way, all retreats are simply lost!
What she has to do is very simple. That's - my life, not God! Only by holding your own destiny with your own hands can you really grasp happiness!
Otherwise, it's just a momentary fortune, a short period of peace and happiness. Such happiness will be taken away from people from time to time.
When she married Zhou Ruijing, it was a fluke, and it was a fluke that she used Zhou Ruijing to calm down that turmoil and save her reputation. She still didn't try hard enough.
Spreading out her palm, looking at the tenderness of her palm, Gu Wanyin clenched it suddenly, and smiled slightly-she wanted to hold her happiness. She wants to keep the happiness she has now. She doesn't want to be slaughtered like she used to be. Aunt Li can't, old lady, either.
After a while, Bi Mei fetched water to bathe her. After bathing, he was naturally refreshed, and even with some chaotic and vague thoughts, he was firm step by step. After bathing, Gu Wanyin sat in front of the dresser wearing only a moon-white Chinese medicine doctor and a wide shirt, and let Bimei comb her green silk like splashed ink.
"Bimei, I've never heard the old lady talk about her mother's family, do you know something?" Gu Wanyin looked in the mirror and spoke softly. So far, she only knows that the Queen Mother and the old lady are from the same family, and they are both daughters of the Qin family. Even Princess Qin. But this Qin family is really not prominent enough. At least, it's rarely mentioned. She thinks about it now, but it is very unreasonable. There is no reason why a prominent family is so obscure, unless...... It's deliberately low-key.
Bi Mei was stunned, obviously a little puzzled why Gu Wanyin suddenly asked about this, and only then replied after being stunned: "The old lady rarely mentions this matter. However, I heard from the old people in the house that when the old lady got married, it was very beautiful. At that time, the old prince was already the prince, and the old lady was the princess as soon as she came. The old prince has been fighting outside all the year round, and the old lady is in charge of the family business alone, if it weren't for the help of her mother's family, she might not know what it was like to be bullied. Speaking of which, even though there are characters like the Queen Mother, they are very low-key. In addition to the New Year's Festival, there is very little contact with our house. There are not many officials in the court—"
After a pause, Bi Mei continued: "Even, it seems that our princess's maiden family is not as famous." ”
Gu Wanyin nodded, it was indeed so. Bi Mei is right. But she thought that the reason why the old lady was so insistent couldn't be just for the Zhou family. Inevitably, there are many more reasons. And for this reason, she guessed that it was the old lady's maiden family, because of the Queen Mother. If it's just for the Zhou family, the old lady doesn't have to be like this. No matter how good King Qin is, he is not an emperor in the end.
However, speaking of which, King Qin was also too anxious. If he acts like this today, he is afraid that he will be completely annoyed with him from now on, and if he wants to make the saint trust him in the future, he is afraid that it will be difficult to ascend to heaven.
I don't know if King Qin regrets it at this time? Can the Queen Mother regret it? And the strategist behind King Qin, has he ever regretted it? ;
