In the middle of May of the eighth year of Xianqing, the border pass reported that the main general Zhenguo Gong Gu Rin fell from his horse and was injured when he was pursuing the Khitan rout.

When the news spread, the capital was shocked, and the emperor issued three decrees in a row. The first is to change the generals in battle, so that the deputy general of the border pass will become the temporary acting chief general of Anhou. The second is to appoint Gao Pinghou to replace the post of deputy general of Cheng Anhou, and rush to the border with Zuo Shilang of the military department and four imperial doctors. the third is to order the imperial doctor to try his best to treat the Duke of Zhenguo, and if he can travel far away, he will return to Beijing to recuperate; If it cannot be moved, it will be treated in the same place and returned to Beijing after it is stable. The required medicinal materials and utensils need to be supplied as much as possible by the border gates, and those who dare to delay and delay will be killed.

This change was no less than an eight-magnitude earthquake in the Gu family, and the Duchess fell ill when she heard the news. Fortunately, with Mrs. Tai in charge, she did not panic. Then the Son of Heaven issued a decree to appease and send an imperial doctor, which completely stabilized the Gu family this time. Because the second master of the Gu family is the deputy commander of Jin Wuwei, the responsibility is not small, and he cannot go to the border in person, and the son is too young. In the end, the Gu family sent Gu Jun, the male of the Gu family, to go to the border with the people of the imperial court to serve the Duke of Zhenguo.

A month later, the squire of the military department returned to Beijing first, and after reporting the military situation at the border pass, he said that Zhenguogong's injury had stabilized and was slowly entering Beijing, and the imperial doctor was on his side.

When the Son of Heaven heard the news, he immediately issued a clear decree to grant marriage, canonized the eldest daughter of the Gu family as the crown princess, and gave female officials to teach several accompanying princesses. Thinking that Zhenguo Gong was seriously injured and did not return, the wedding date was set for one year later.

Under the holy decree, the Gu family once again became the center of Yanjing, diluting the haze of Zhenguogong's serious injury, and the name of the first noble of the Gu family in Yanjing became a little heavier.

In the past few months, the situation has changed, and Hui Lan has more deeply realized the power of the emperor. When the news of Grandpa Guo's injury came, she lifted the grounding. With her great enlightenment and meditation cultivation, plus five heartfelt moral books, she finally won the forgiveness of the eldest lady. Or the eldest lady didn't really blame her, but she was just angry that she was ignorant.

The two sisters said a lot of thoughtful words, and the eldest lady had no shortage of admonitions to her. Hui Lan knows what to do, and of course she is humbly taught.

Afterwards, Hui Lan admired the eldest lady even more, she was locked up for half a month, and no one in the house came to the door or sent anyone to visit from top to bottom, including her own aunt. When she came out, she had nothing but care and care for her from top to bottom. She couldn't help but want to ask her aunt what explanation she had gotten, but she was only stopped and avoided by her aunt. Hui Lan is even more curious, this is not scientific!

It's a pity that this unscientific thing just happened, and Huilan couldn't help but be convinced. She accepted the lesson, and she didn't dare to ask the eldest lady, so she could only hold it in her heart and become an unsolved case.

However, after this experience, Hui Lan was even more distracted. In all fairness, the match between the eldest lady and the crown princess is estimated to be ranked in the first echelon of the whole Great Qin. Status, family foundation, appearance and education, character and intelligence...... All of them are top notch. She was stimulated more from the degree of freedom and the pit patriarchy system of male polyandry in feudal society.

But there is no way, there is no solution to this, in order not to trouble herself, Huilan can only pretend not to see. Other than that, all that remains is the worry of the court's plot to dump. She is only worried that the eldest lady has received the most orthodox education since she was a child, and she is the eldest daughter of the favored princess, but she is afraid that she will not understand the mentality and survival wisdom of those low-level characters. You must know that the royal family is the most unruly existence, as long as the superior likes it, no matter how low the voice is, it can be mixed into a high position. Moreover, the Gu family has no aunts, let alone children, and the eldest lady has no chance to get along with these two types of people and experience the hardships and hardships of them.

Although Huilan has never experienced it, she is well-informed. Those literary creations were enough for her to be a "mentor", of course, limited to theory. Coupled with a big brain and rich imagination, tsk tsk, she, the "mentor", will only be more ferocious.

It's a pity that she's a little Lori who is not yet ten years old, how can she be a mentor for the eldest lady who will get married in a year at most. It is estimated that the biggest possibility is that she will be confined again for the rest of her life. Life is such a cheat, obviously she has a belly of theoretical knowledge, but she can't say it!!

Then Huilan remembered her evaluation when she first saw the eldest lady, and she couldn't wait to give her a big mouth. Shouldn't she have the function of a crow's mouth, a good spirit but not a bad spirit. Hui Lan woke up in shock, and she couldn't talk nonsense anymore. Of course, you can still show it in the face of the enemy.

Then, the bad news came, and the whole family was shocked. The eldest lady happened to feel slightly ill, and this blow made her bedridden directly. The most stable person in the family is the old lady, she first asked the eldest lady to take Liulang to serve the eldest lady; reprimanded Mrs. Li, who was a little flustered, and entrusted the family affairs to her after she regained her calm; He also instructed the juniors that Erlang took San Lang and the four ladies to only take martial arts classes from now on, but they had to write ten big characters every day and show them to her every day; The fifth lady took Huilan and the seven ladies who were about the same age to continue the class, and the two big ones added three big characters every day, and they had to be shown to her.

Hui Lan was still panicked, and she had forgotten after listening to the old lady's series of instructions. The down-to-earth spirit she ordered by her old man represents her confidence in itself. I found the most suitable thing for everyone, so that everyone didn't have the energy to think nonsense. Even if she is a sick eldest lady, with the eldest daughter who wants to be the crown princess and the baby son of the future Zhenguo Gong by her side, she probably doesn't have much chance to think nonsense. And at this time, it is better to be still than to be still, the situation is unknown, and it is most taboo to play the piano indiscriminately.

So although the news of the family's improvement has not yet come, the house is as stable as an old dog from top to bottom, and no one has done anything superfluous. For her uncle and subordinates, the old lady will definitely explain them one by one, Hui Lan has no doubts. People who do big things will not ignore any small detail, after all, details determine success or failure.

Take 10,000 steps back, even if you are a grandfather...... The Guogong Mansion is still there, and there is also the eldest lady, the quasi-crown princess, and the impact on the Gu family will be compressed to the minimum. The royal family can't beat his mouth, and he just expressed his intention to marry someone else's girl. Then, because your father was born and died for your heavenly family, he was injured and could no longer lead the army, and even died in battle, so you regretted it. Hooligans can't do this!

If there is really a bad result, the crown princess of the eldest lady is definitely stable. And in the long run, this may not be an advantage of the Gu family. After all, what old emperor can tolerate a family with heavy troops? And according to the news that Uncle Li has reported several times, the emperor is in average health, and it is said that he has been sick twice since the Chinese New Year. Of course, it's all a small illness, but who knows the specifics.

The only thing that is a little bad is that Gao Pinghou mixed up with the position of deputy general. Hui Lan only felt unlucky, the Gaoping Marquis Mansion and the Zhenguo Mansion were indeed a bit offended. In the future, we must pay more attention to getting along, why is this so inch, is there no one in the whole Great Qin, or is the emperor lame......

After brainstorming, Hui Lan snorted several times and slapped the wooden table several times. I thought in my heart, Grandpa Guo, I really didn't curse you, the puppy farted with children's words. Don't care about the gods, she didn't say anything.

God willing, after that, the good news came, Grandpa Guo was just injured. Now that he is on his way back to Beijing, and he has made military achievements, the dark clouds above the Gu family have finally completely dispersed. In addition, the eldest lady received a formal marriage will, and the wedding date was set. Not to mention the clouds now, the Gu family is simply sunny, and spring returns to the earth. With so much good news, the eldest lady was happy and of course recovered quickly.

Fortunately, the old lady was stable and didn't let the Gu family give her a little sunshine. The so-called not to be happy with things and not to be sad about oneself, the reputation of the Gu family outside is better.
