"You don't have to worry, you don't have to worry about what the second wife said." Zhou Ruijing didn't say anything in detail, but just said so.

Zhou Yufei came back to his senses, and after answering, he got up and went back to his yard.

Gu Wanyin had to ask Zhou Ruijing in the air; "Have you ever eaten in the Yamen?"

"I've eaten it." Zhou Ruijing sat down at the table, and Gu Wanyin naturally brought him tea. He picked it up and took a sip, exhaled slightly, and then showed a hint of laughter: "Today, Princess Qin met the saint at the Queen Mother's place. ”

"Oh?" Gu Wanyin was curious, raised her head to look at him, and urged him to speak quickly with her eyes. You must know that Zhou Ruijing is not a person who likes to say useless things, since he mentioned it, it must be something interesting that happened. But she didn't guess it, presumably, what Princess Qin could do at this time was related to King Qin's side concubine.

"Princess Qin took the initiative to mention the matter of giving King Qin a side concubine." Zhou Ruijing said with a smile, but he didn't sell it, and said directly: "Even the list has been prepared, and after meeting the saint, the list is submitted." The saint pointed to one casually. Later, the Queen Mother said that she was afraid that one was not enough, so she added another one. The decree will be made tomorrow, and then the date will be set, and we will wait to pass through the door. ”

Gu Wanyin was a little stunned when she heard this-she didn't expect Princess Qin to be so well prepared, and she even prepared the list early. Moreover, it was such good luck that he met the saint at the Queen Mother. I don't know how much preparation was made in advance and how much thought was spent. Princess Qin is really a powerful master. However, she is also deeply affectionate towards King Qin, and has done so many things for King Qin. It's just that King Qin treated her-

"On Princess Qin's list, they must all be daughters of small families, or they are daughters of concubines in big families." Only in this way can Princess Qin be suppressed, and only in this way will it not threaten the current status of Princess Qin. For this. Gu Wanyin guessed. If she were the princess of Qin, she would definitely be the same. Thinking about it, Princess Qin tried her best to prevent King Qin from accepting concubines, but now she has to take the initiative to mention this matter, which is ironic.

"That's true. It's just that this matter has something to do with our house. Zhou Ruijing nodded. But he said so suddenly. When she arrived, Gu Wanyin was confused, and she was even more worried in her heart, and hurriedly asked, "How can it have anything to do with us?" ”

"The one that the Queen Mother is referring to is Zhou Yuyan." Zhou Ruijing coughed lightly. That's when it came out. It's just that what he didn't say was that the Queen Mother was the first to mention Zhou Yufei, but the saint stopped her. The queen mother insisted, so she had to retreat and order Zhou Yuyan;

Gu Wanyin's eyes widened in surprise, she didn't know what to say-she had just told the second wife why she didn't let Zhou Yuyan go, but she didn't expect it to be a word in a blink of an eye, and there was really a sense of impermanence in the world.

However, soon Gu Wanyin put aside this idea and sighed. He smiled faintly again: "As long as Yufei is fine." I just don't know, what does Zhou Yuyan think? Willing or unwilling? But now, even if Zhou Yuyan is unwilling, there is no way to do it. After all, no one can disobey the will.

"Second uncle and second aunt, I shouldn't object." Zhou Ruijing didn't have much emotion about this. In his opinion, as long as it's not Zhou Yufei, it's fine. Since the second wife supports Zhou Yufei to marry as a side concubine, then such a good thing falls in the second room, presumably the second wife also feels happy. I don't think there's anything wrong with it.

"Hmm." Gu Wanyin answered softly and didn't say much. When the horizontal and vertical things come to this point, it has nothing to do with her. only needs to keep Zhou Yufei, and the rest has nothing to do with her.

Because the hour is getting late. After a while of gossiping, the two of them rested.

Early in the morning of the second day, sure enough, someone came to announce the decree. Because it was a holy decree, everyone from the Zhou family went. Gu Wanyin knew what the holy decree was, so she didn't see any panic, but the old lady and the others. A little flustered. If you say that the biggest reaction is Zhou Yufei. She didn't know the details, and her affairs had been so big in the past few days, so she only thought it was related to herself, and cold sweat broke out all over her body at that time, and she was only inexplicably worried.

Seeing that she cared so much, Gu Wanyin hurriedly reached out and shook her hand: "Don't be afraid." It's not about you. In front of everyone, she didn't say much, so she could only lower her voice and say such a sentence, and she stopped.

Zhou Yufei glanced at the letter suspiciously, and finally nodded and gradually regained his composure, although it was pretended, but in the end it looked much better.

When the decree was announced, everyone was stunned - they just thought that they had heard it wrong, how could it be that it was not Zhou Yufei, but Zhou Yuyan?

The old lady and the second lady were confused, looking at each other, but they were both a little inexplicable, and they didn't know what to do. The old lady couldn't help but ask: "Is it really a girl?" ”

Gu Wanyin nodded and replied seriously, "The old lady heard it right. It's indeed Yuyan's girl. As he spoke, he turned his head again, smiled at the second wife and Zhou Yuyan, and said sincerely: "Congratulations to the second aunt, congratulations to the second sister." Whether she thinks it's a good thing or a bad thing, this congratulations is indispensable. It's not just her who has to say it, but others say it too.

Gu Wanyin even quietly pulled Zhou Yufei, who had never come back to her senses in a daze, and Zhou Yufei was also busy laughing. Say hello to the second wife and Zhou Yuyan.

In front of everyone, the second wife really didn't want to say anything, and she didn't dare to show half a point, so she had to stiffly pull out a smile to respond. Zhou Yuyan was really smiling, surprised and happy. After all, Zhou Yuyan is still too young to understand that such a "good thing" may not necessarily be a good thing. After all, no matter how noble you are, what is a good thing to be a concubine with someone? If it is said that the wife is dead or gentle and weak, but Princess Qin knows when she looks at it that it is not a fuel-efficient lamp, how much better can it be to live under the hands of Princess Qin?

The old lady didn't see anything on her face, but her brows furrowed slightly, and her eyes seemed to sweep over Gu Wanyin's body inadvertently.

Gu Wanyin felt clearly, but she still smiled faintly, as if she didn't know.

And Zhou Yufei quietly let go of his fist and let out a breath; Knowing that it wasn't herself, she would naturally be happy. As for Zhou Yuyan - looking at it like that, Zhou Yuyan is sincerely happy. That being the case, then there is nothing to sympathize with.

Respectfully sent away the eunuch who came to announce the decree, and the old lady immediately frowned, "Come with me." "Even if you are suspicious or uncomfortable, you can't do it. When the will comes, then it is time to prepare for other things. Lots to be busy. In this case, it is natural for everyone to discuss and deliberate together.

After all, this matter is a big deal, so the old lady didn't let Gu Wanyin go back first. Gu Wanyin naturally didn't leave, and went in with her.

As soon as the old lady sat down, she frowned and asked, "What do you think about this?" ”

However, when I looked around, no one spoke. The second wife was depressed at this time, where did she still want to speak? As for Gu Wanyin, she won't speak. The third wife was happy to watch the excitement, but she didn't speak.

The old lady frowned deeper, sighed, and turned her head to look at the second wife: "Second daughter-in-law, what do you think?" ”

The old lady asked by name, and the second lady naturally didn't want to be silent anymore, but just raised her head, and before she could speak, tears fell in her eyes. The second wife did not hesitate, got up and knelt down, and said mournfully: "Ask the old lady to go to the palace to ask the queen mother for personal favors, and let Yuyan not marry her." ”

No one expected the second wife to say such a thing, not to mention the old lady's face full of consternation, even Gu Wanyin couldn't help but look at the second wife twice. The fact that the second wife can say such a thing shows that she is indeed not confused. It's just that it's like this for about everyone - if the same thing falls on someone else, it may be a good thing, but when it falls on yourself, it's a different feeling. Previously, the second wife asked Zhou Yufei to marry her, but she didn't look like this at all.

But now that the person has been replaced by Zhou Yufei, the second wife began to cry nonstop.

The old lady sank her face, looked at the second lady and shouted, "Nonsense! This is a good thing, this is the grace of the Holy God to our Zhou family, if you do this again, get out of here! What is the bitterness of crying? Frustrated! Even though the old lady didn't understand why Zhou Yufei was replaced by Zhou Yuyan, no matter what, this matter was not a bad thing. The second wife's behavior like this is indeed disappointing.

Seeing that the old lady was angry, Zhou Yuyan hurriedly stepped forward and knelt on the ground, and said crisply: "Don't be angry, old lady, my mother just can't think about it for a while." This is naturally a good thing, a divine grace. ”

"So, you're not reluctant." The old lady finally softened her tone, looked at Zhou Yuyan and asked lightly.

Zhou Yuyan nodded: "With such grace, we should naturally be happy and grateful." In Zhou Yuyan's opinion, although she is a side concubine and a small one for King Qin, what is the identity of King Qin? Moreover, Princess Qin's current situation is ......, and she knows it. Because of the emperor's eldest grandson, Princess Qin completely lost the favor of King Qin. If she marries and serves King Qin well, she will have children in the future, and maybe she will be able to overpower Princess Qin in the future. Besides, in the past few days, she has heard the second wife say that King Qin will ascend to the throne in the future, and she feels that this matter is a great opportunity. Gu Wanyin can still be a princess, so why can't she be a princess, or even an imperial concubine?

When the second wife heard Zhou Yuyan's words, her face changed at the moment, and she even forgot to cry. His chest rose and fell violently, obviously angry. At the moment, he hated and said, "You are too naïve!" Confused—"

It's just that before the words were finished, I heard the old lady's warning voice: "Second daughter-in-law, if you dare to talk nonsense again, I will let my mother-in-law kick you out!" Such a thing, how can you talk nonsense with red mouth and white teeth? "If Zhou Yuyan really doesn't want to get married, then it's going to be difficult!";
