Volume 1 Chapter 45 The Wild Sparrow

"Where did the news come from? Really? Wei Yu grabbed the hem of Concubine Xian's clothes and asked nervously.

Concubine Xian didn't expect her reaction to be so big, and patted her hand to comfort: "It's just that I heard a little rumor from the person who served in front of the palace, don't worry, if you hate that Gu Jiaqing so much, Your Majesty doesn't have to marry him." ”

Is that really the case? Wei Yu had a hard time convincing herself.

The Zhenbei General's Mansion has 400,000 Yong troops in his hands, and his family guards the northwest, and he has not been in contact with Beijing for many years, just like a tiger lurking on his side, it is really difficult for people not to be afraid.

What's more, even she herself has to admit that although Gu Jiaqing is essentially a madman, she does pretend to be a glorious and beautiful person on the surface, and she looks like a wishful man with both civil and military skills.

If she is her father, it is difficult not to be moved.

Although it is only a little rumor now, since her father has this idea, she can't sit still.

"No, I have to quickly think of a way to dispel my father's thoughts!" Wei Yu blushed and frowned.

"This ......" Concubine Xian really didn't understand this time, "Although this General Gu is a military general, I heard that he was also born very jade, why do you hate him so much?" ”

She thought that Wei Yu and Xiang Siyuan were in love with each other so she came over to remind her a little, but she didn't expect that since she hadn't already chosen Xiang Siyuan, why did she dislike Gu Jiaqing so much.

In ancient times, marriage events were the orders of parents, matchmakers, although the princess's family affairs were more free to choose, but after all, freedom is also limited, as long as the other party's family background, talent and appearance can be worthy, and there are many people who have never even seen each other before marriage.

Everyone came over like this, and Concubine Xian really didn't understand Wei Yu's resistance very much.

Why do you dislike Gu Jiaqing so much?

Wei Yu closed his eyes, and his mind crossed countless nights of breathing, the well-made gold chains on his ankles, the square sky in the square inch yard, and the humiliation of cat and mouse again and again...... Countless memories rushed to her.

Gu Jiaqing is a person who is scheming and ruthless, indifferent and ruthless, and absolutely unworthy.

She was cold, her teeth were sour, and the corners of her eyes were dark red, "I ......"

She spoke in a dumb voice, and when she spoke, she remembered the string of Buddhist beads on her wrist.

In this life, she and Gu Jiaqing have only a few faces, and there is really no reason to hate him, how can she say all the things in her previous life?

"I ......"

"Okay......" Seeing that her expression was wrong, Concubine Xian grabbed her and said thoughtfully: "If you are embarrassed, you don't need to say it." ”

"It's just that Liu San's matter is not so simple, it involves the noble in-laws, and the emperor has already woken up."

"It's not General Gu today, there will be General Zhang and General Li tomorrow, if you don't want to find someone to marry at random like an ordinary woman, it's better to ask the Queen Mother to plan as soon as possible, otherwise when the holy decree comes down, it will be difficult to collect it."

Wei Yu knew that Concubine Xian was also kind, but when she heard this, her heart still sank, so she had to smile at her reluctantly: "I know, thank you Niangniang." ”

Concubine Xian nodded and said, "It's good that you know, it's not early, and I should leave too." ”

Wei Yu bowed to her and said, "Congratulations to Niangniang." ”

After sending off Concubine Xian, Wei Yu couldn't hold back the anxiety in his heart.

In any case, she must not marry Gu Jiaqing in this life, even if she can abandon the old grudges of her previous life, Gu Jiaqing came with the memories of her previous life, and she was born into two camps.

If his father is allowed to continue to favor him, he is not sure what he will be able to do in the future.

In his previous life, he was already like the emperor, above ten thousand people, if it weren't for some contact, she could feel that Gu Jiaqing was not serious, and he would be no different from Huaiwang Jiang Song and others in her heart.

Now she still can't figure out Gu Jiaqing's intentions, so she can only put it aside, but she didn't expect that the tree wanted to be quiet and the wind didn't stop, she didn't go to find trouble, but she came to the door to trouble herself.

It is imperative to dispel the idea of my father as soon as possible.

The best way, as Concubine Xian said, find a suitable person as soon as possible and ask the Queen Mother to settle the family affairs, and then think about retiring in the future.

Xiang Siyuan can't go there, so who can he find?

Wei Yu sifted through the unmarried men of the same age in the court one by one in his mind, and suddenly fixed on a certain person.

She suddenly asked, "Dawn, what day is it?" ”

"March 5th, Your Highness."

"Is the palace test coming soon?"

She still remembers that this year's palace examination was a little later than in previous years, which was held on March 1, and then the Qionglin banquet was held on the street, but this year because of Qintian's poor monitoring, it was postponed to March 10, and now the palace examination has not been held.

"Yes, this year's Qionglin Banquet, His Royal Highness wants to take a look?"

Naturally, he was going to go, Wei Yu let out a slight sigh, he didn't expect to be reincarnated and reborn, but he still couldn't avoid being engaged.

In her previous life, she hid in Jianzhang for more than two years, and finally had no way to hide, and was mentioned by the Queen Mother to sneak back to the capital to get married, and the object was this year's new champion, Bai Zai, the prince of Anguo.

An Guogong and Yong'an Hou have a deep relationship, Wei Yu and Bai Zai are also childhood sweethearts, Bai Zai is two years older than her, and he often went to the palace to talk to the Queen Mother when he was a child. , the two seem to be born incompatible, they have been parting with each other since childhood, and a pair of enemies know each other well.

They were married in the twentieth year of Jiayuan, and they originally agreed to get married at the end of the spring of the following year, but they didn't want to get engaged An Guogong, who was in the prime of life, suddenly died of a sudden illness.

Before the two had time to get married, Wei Yu had already broken the country and died.

Later, she stayed in Beijing, and Bai Zai also went to Beijing to mention the relationship between the two at the end of the filial piety period, which was quite affectionate and righteous, but it was because Wei Yu had too close contacts with Gu Jiaqing, and there were frequent rumors in Beijing that the two were reluctant, and the relationship between the two could only be stopped.

The reason why Wei Yu still found him in this life was because he knew that he had always had a happy woman in his heart, that woman was the niece of an aunt of An Guogong, who was born in a declining business, her father died early, and she was in the Anguo Mansion with her mother, orphans and widows.

Because the door is not right, there can be no lover to eventually become a family, Bai Zai insisted on refusing to marry, until the nineteenth year of Jiayuan, the woman died of illness, and Bai Zai was decadent for a long time to get out of grief.

It was at that time that Wei Yu was also dragged to the age of twenty, and the Queen Mother and An Guogong simply made a couple.

Before the engagement, Bai Zai had already taken the lead in explaining this past to Wei Yu, telling Wei Yu that he would never forget that woman in his heart. At that time, Bai Zai no longer looked like a high-spirited young man, and the whole person was very depressed, revealing a sense of decadence that looked down on the world.

And Wei Yu has been practicing in Jianzhang for two years, and his temperament has sunk a lot, and he doesn't care much.

She knew that she was a little heartless in the affairs of men and women, and she didn't want to be single-minded, she didn't want to harm others, and it was just right to live with Bai Zai, so she agreed to get married.

Counting the days, now Bai Zai is only afraid that he is with his sweetheart, you and me, but soon he will be caught by the Duchess of An Guo and the mandarin ducks.

Later, there was naturally a big fuss, and the Duchess of Anguo swallowed her anger to cover this ugly matter and sent the mother and daughter to the Grange, while Bai Zai committed a conflict with the Duchess of Anguo for many years, and then until the death of the lady, the knot between the two has not been untied.

If Wei Yu wants to find a shield to avoid Emperor Cheng's marriage, Bai Zai is the most suitable.

As soon as the two of them knew each other, she was not worried about Bai Zai stabbing her in the back; Second, the two of them are quite equal, and they can also pull the banner of the Queen Mother, Wei Yu is not afraid of Emperor Cheng's opposition, and thirdly, the probability that she will use that girl to negotiate with Bai Zai to become a fake husband and wife has greatly increased.

If the two can get engaged, it will be beneficial to each other, he can protect his sweetheart, and Wei Yu can also be clean for a while.

The only problem now is that Bai Zai's matter has not been discovered by the Duchess of Anguo, and she is short of time, so she still needs to convince herself, I just hope that Bai Zai will not lose his mind by immersing himself in the deep affection and honey at this time, and it is also a troublesome matter.

"You get ready, and we'll see in five days."

Five days later, she had to put on a good show in public.

Listening to Concubine Xian's tone, the current father and emperor only have this idea, and they should not give an order for a while.

Let's do it first.

Wei Yu propped his head, took a sip of sweet tea to moisten his throat, and a feeling of exhaustion came up.

Since she was reborn, she doesn't seem to have stopped, and things have happened one after another.

Sixteen wars, Jiang Song is eyeing the tiger, Gu Jiaqing's intention is unknown, and the Xungui family has also set their eyes on her, Xiang Siyuan's assassination has just ended, and the monitoring of Jiang Song's dealings with King Huai has not yet yielded results.

She hasn't figured out the troubled waters of the court for a long time, which is really exhausting.

"I'm tired, I want to sleep, don't disturb me." Wei Yu said.

"Yes."

Dawn helped her to the temple and set her up, and retreated in silence.

The red gold four-legged lotus incense burner slowly floats with gray and white smoke, and the petals of the Buddha that are obliquely inserted on the incense table are pink and white, and the sunlight is warm, and the blue jade bead curtain that sways slightly climbs up, reflecting the brilliance of the room.

Lantian Yu was smoking, and Wei Yu's sleepiness gradually became stronger, and he soon lost consciousness.

In the winter of the fourth year of Yuanhe, Hengshan.

The winter snow is fluttering, and it is covered in snow.

Emperor Yuan died of illness, and in the second year of the new emperor's succession, it snowed heavily in Gyeonggi, and it became a snow disaster.

This is the second year that Gu Jiaqing has become the regent and concurrently the prime minister of the cabinet, and some people say that this is a divine punishment from heaven, because some people have cholera and the following offenses, and they have messed up their dignity and humility.

However, this can't shake Gu Jiaqing's position in Beijing, he has a heavy army, and in just four years, he has gathered most of the court officials, and he has great power, so that the Wei family and the surname Gu can be said to be windy and rainy.

Such a person who leans towards the government and the opposition and has every opportunity is often absent from Beijing in the busy season of the snow disaster at the end of the year.

Gu Jiaqing squeaked open the door of the beech peacock pattern, shook the snow on the cloak, and raised his eyes to look inside the house.

As if it had just been robbed, the priceless gold and jade porcelain was shattered, the chairs and stools fell in chaos, and the place was in a mess.

The doors and windows were closed, and the house was dark, and there was silence everywhere, except for the winter snow.

His expression faded, he turned his head to look at the maid by the door, and asked in a cold voice, "Where is the princess?" ”

The delicate-looking maid was so frightened by him that she stammered, "Your ...... His Highness is resting in the house. ”

The house has only been in operation for two months, and the current situation is already strange.

Gu Jiaqing took the cloak on his shoulder, put it aside at will, ignored the mess in the room, and turned into the house.

Bypassing the screen of Nanmu Dongxue Hanmei, I saw a thin figure on the half-drawn luxury stepping bed of the gauze curtain, and the light in the room was dim, and I couldn't see it really, only to see a head like ink and green silk pouring down.

In general, this gesture means not wanting to see people.

After several years of getting along, Gu Jiaqing has known everything about her every move and figured it out.

Listening to the falling snow outside the window, he suddenly remembered a pair of wild birds hanging in the corridor of his home in Beijing, which Gu Jiayan hunted back.

Wild and untamed, water and rice are not eaten and only run around in the cage all day long, and no matter how much effort is spent, it doesn't work.

Gu Jiaqing didn't know what was interesting about it, and when he asked him, his younger brother, who was cowardly all day long in front of him, was full of interest, "Wild things are wonderful in wild words, if they are easily tamed, how boring it should be." ”

He turned and took his cloak, went out of the house, and said to the maid, "Clean up the house." ”

The maid breathed a sigh of relief, and replied in a low and urgent voice, "Yes." ”

Gu Jiaqing opened a white umbrella, the snow fell on the umbrella one after another, he strode outside the courtyard, and said with a faint expression: "Close the mountain." ”

Thirteen is very unexpected, this winter heavy snow, the mountain road is difficult to travel, I don't know how much manpower and material resources it will cost to close the mountain.

"Your Excellency...... What are you looking for? ”

Gu Jiaqing smiled in a low voice and said slowly: "My wild sparrow flew away. ”
