Chapter 540: An Eventful Season
Gu Wanyin knelt for a long time, and didn't wait for anyone to speak. In a small hall, the atmosphere is mysterious. It's more like it has condensed into a paste, and no matter what, it only feels sticky, and I can't get rid of it.
Gu Wanyin lowered her head, naturally she couldn't see that the eldest princess and Duan Guifei were both faint, but their eyes were full of brilliance. She only knew that if she couldn't convince the eldest princess Duan Guifei and the others today, then she would have endless troubles. Therefore, she only knelt motionlessly, although it was difficult to kneel with her stomach straight, but she still gritted her teeth and stiffened.
Beads of sweat trickled down her forehead. I don't know if I'm tired or scared.
After a long time, the eldest princess let out a soft "ah", and her voice was extremely surprised. It seems that at this time, Gu Wanyin was found kneeling on the ground. The eldest princess stood up, walked in front of Gu Wanyin, and personally stretched out her hand to help Gu Wanyin, but said apologetically: "I was out of my mind for a while, but I didn't expect you to be so solid-eyed." Good and decent, what do you do on your knees? You are heavy, so you should take good care of yourself. This must not be the case in the future. β
The eldest princess's tone was very gentle, which was different from before. Looking at Duan Guifei again, she also looked concerned: "Yes, the eldest princess and I thought something was wrong, why did you kneel on the ground?" After speaking, he looked at the Duchess of Huguo, and said angrily: "You too, the eldest princess and I were negligent, you should remind me." Why just sit there and watch a good show. β
The Duchess of the Protector sighed, "I only thought that Her Royal Highness the Princess and the noble concubine had something to say, but I didn't speak." Unexpectedly, it hurt the princess. β
Gu Wanyin sat back on the chair, and the eldest princess also returned to her seat. There was some apology on her face, and Duan Guifei naturally did the same. It was the Duchess of the Protector, with a calm face. The eldest princess and Duan Guifei want to be tempted, and the Duchess of the Protector is naturally able to cooperate. However, it seems that the Duchess of the Protector is very good at beating the side drum.
Gu Wanyin said some more words, all of which were nothing more than expressions of loyalty; The eldest princess and Duan Guifei. Naturally, he nodded again and again. There is no reason for unbelief.
Later, the topic was changed, and the three of them laughed for a while, and seeing that the hour was not early, the eldest princess got up and went out to greet the guests. But she asked Duan Guifei to accompany Gu Wanyin well, and the Duchess of the Protector also stayed.
When the eldest princess went, the expression on Duan Guifei's face softened a little, and she looked at Gu Wanyin and said in a kind voice: "How is Yufei preparing?" Seeing that the wedding date is approaching, there can be no delay. If there's anything, just say it. Whatever it is, I must have a thought. We're all family, so you're welcome. Although Yufei and Jin'er's marriage is important, you must not be busy, and your body is even more important. Seeing that you are about to give birth. But don't be too busy with this. β
Faced with Duan Guifei's concern, Gu Wanyin naturally responded with sincere fear.
Later, Duan Guifei asked about Gu Changfei in a roundabout way. Gu Wanyin only said that she didn't know, and there was a smell of hatred for iron and steel, and it showed that if you do something wrong, you will naturally be punished, and there can be no exception. Duan Guifei changed the topic again. I only heard Duan Guifei whisper softly: "By the way, do you remember the unlucky girl before?" It's the one who was engaged to Jin'er. β
Gu Wanyin was slightly stunned, looked up at Duan Guifei, and saw that at this time, Duan Guifei's brows were slightly furrowed, and the corners of her lips were pursed with a solemn and solemn look. Her heart couldn't help but skip a beat. Naturally, she remembered. First lost Xing's life. Then, after his death, even his reputation was ruined. Although he was finally buried in the name of Princess Jin, it was disgraceful in the end. Moreover, how precious is Xing's life?
Gu Wanyin looked at Duan Guifei, and suddenly understood what Duan Guifei meant, and her face turned slightly white at the moment, and beads of sweat came out. This time, I was really scared. Not intimidated by that tactic. is afraid that the means will fall on Zhou Yufei. At this time, Duan Guifei suddenly mentioned this, naturally with other meanings. Categorically, it won't just be talked.
Looking at Gu Wanyin's expression, Duan Guifei naturally understood that Gu Wanyin also understood what she meant, and continued to speak: "I got the news, and there has been some instability in the capital recently. Especially at night. The Holy One has been sick lately, and he doesn't have the heart to care about this. I'm a harem person, and I can't interfere too much. And there have been a lot of rights and wrongs in the palace recently, and it's not easy for me to get Yufei in. Be careful yourselves. β
In this matter, Duan Guifei and the Zhou family are naturally one. Duan Guifei knew in her heart that if something really happened to Zhou Yufei. The Zhou family will definitely not give up and cover up the past at this time. And when the time comes, I am afraid that the Zhou family will not only hate the culprit, but also hate her and Muzi, the king of Jin. After all, Zhou Yufei was forced, but not so willingly.
If it can be safe, and then the two get married, these are naturally not afraid. What relationship could be stronger than marriage? Besides, Zhou Yufei is Zhou Ruijing's only sister, and everyone has seen how much Zhou Ruijing loves this sister. However, Duan Guifei also believes that the Zhou family is not an idler, and if they are really on guard, those people may not be able to succeed.
"Thank you for the reminder." Gu Wanyin whispered grateful, although there was some panic in her voice, she was also very resolute: "After I go back today, I will send more people to guard Yufei." β
"Well, that's for the best. I will also ask people to walk around as much as possible outside your Zhennan Wangfu at night, and it is good to have a precaution. Duan Guifei sighed, somewhat stunned: "If it wasn't for the last negligence, I didn't expect the other party to do such a heartbreaking thing." I wouldn't have made a fuss about it. It's a pity that the girl's flowery life is gone. The regret on Duan Guifei's face was very strong, and she didn't hide it, and the regret was also obvious. That girl was suffering from the pond fish, everyone understands.
After a pause, Concubine Duan's face was cold, and she said heavily: "This time, we must not make any mistakes. β
Gu Wanyin exhaled a breath of turbidity and nodded again and again: "I think so too;." "The matter is something else, she can naturally put it aside, even if it is just a sigh, it will be left behind soon. But now that things have fallen on me, my feelings are naturally different.
At this time, the Duchess of the Protector, who had not spoken for a long time, smiled slightly, and said softly: "Why don't I lend a few maids around me to the princess." Although it's just some fancy fists and embroidered legs, it's much stronger than the average girl. β
Duan Guifei and Gu Wanyin were both shocked, and then they were both overjoyed. The girls around the Duchess of the Protector are powerful, they are all clear. Now that the Duchess of the Protector is willing to borrow a girl, it is naturally the best. With the protection of those girls, it is naturally equivalent to another layer of protection, which is naturally happy.
Gu Wanyin looked at the Duchess of the Protector gratefully, got up and saluted the Duchess of the Protector, and was overjoyed: "With the support of the Madame, we are naturally much more relieved." Fu rΓ©ndΓ En, our Zhou family must not dare to forget. If Mrs. He has any requests, please do not hesitate to mention them. She understood that the Duchess of the Protectorate was not only giving Duan Guifei face, but also showing favor to the Zhou family.
When the Duchess of the Protector heard this, her eyes narrowed slightly, and she couldn't see the light inside. However, the expression on his face was still soft: "What are these words?" I did my part. Where is it worth paying so much attention? β
Duan Guifei sighed, with a little tired on her face, and said meaningfully: "It's obviously spring, but I feel like it's late autumn." β
Gu Wanyin pondered carefully, and then understood what Duan Guifei meant: eventful. At the moment, his heart moved slightly, and he couldn't help but think: Since Duan Guifei sighed like this, does it mean that the palace is not calm at this time? Concubine Duan had said before that there were many rights and wrongs in the palace at this time. At that time, she was only competing for favor, and the saint was sick. But now it seems, it doesn't seem to be?
After saying this, Duan Guifei suddenly looked at Gu Wanyin and whispered, "Since you plan to split up, let's divide it quickly." Otherwise, I am afraid that many more incidents will arise. Now our two families are grasshoppers tied to a rope, so I won't hide it from you, the Queen Mother's illness...... It's about to be good. But the sickness of the saints is serious. β
There are also some situations where Duan Guifei did not say it explicitly. But I believe that with the cleverness of Gu Wanyin and Zhou Ruijing, they can also think of it. The undercurrent in the palace is now turbulent, and it is really, every step is frightening.
Faced with such a situation, Duan Guifei only felt tired. I feel even more panicked. Even if she is a noble concubine, there are many things in the palace that are not under her control. And now, the sky is gradually changing, even if she has the heart, she doesn't have the ability to change anything. The only thing you can do is to wait and see what happens, and then do everything you can to prevent the future.
Gu Wanyin looked at Duan Guifei like this, and she only felt uneasy in her heart. Duan Guifei has such a demeanor, which shows what kind of situation is already in the palace. If the Queen Mother is really good, then things may be very different.
After saying goodbye from the Eldest Princess's Mansion, Gu Wanyin was a little distracted. But after thinking about it, she also told Zhou Yufei what Duan Guifei said one by one, so that she could be a little guarded.
Although Zhou Yufei was also a little unstable, she seemed to be much calmer than her, and came over to comfort her; "Sister-in-law, don't worry, let's cover it horizontally, and the soldiers will block it. We don't necessarily have to be able to come in easily. Moreover, since the Duchess of the Protector made such a promise, we don't have to worry too much. Moreover, when things come to such a critical time, other people's goals may not be ours. β
Gu Wanyin smiled reluctantly, stroking her bulging abdomen, only to feel that the future was bleak. What will happen to you? Who knows. It's just that it makes people feel a little scared.;
