"Yes." Gu Changting agreed, thought about it and said with a hippie smile: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother and the Queen Aunt, I'm afraid they want to ask me to come over and scold, so you can help me say a few kind words."

"How can I say this? You should suffer the scolding yourself."

The emperor snorted coldly, picked up a book and waved his hand: "Go down, I will be upset when I see you."

"Yes."

Gu Changting bowed and retired, and when he went out, several eunuchs who were waiting for him smiled at him, so he pointed around one by one, gritted his teeth and said, "The money I spent on you can't be wasted, give me a little cleverness, see which ignorant person complains to the emperor, and write it down and tell me when the time comes."

The eunuchs had to smile and agree, until he walked away, several eunuchs got together, and said to Xue Yan, the chief eunuch manager: "Prince Duan is becoming more and more arrogant now, I remember that he was not like this a few years ago, it has only been a few years, and after becoming a prince last year, it is even more amazing, if it goes on like this, I am afraid that he will not have good fruit to eat."

Xue Yan waved his dust expressionlessly, and said lightly: "Everyone has their own life, he is the prince of Duan, and the emperor is favored, so he naturally has the capital to be arrogant, what kind of heart do you have?" As slaves, we only need to be loyal to our masters."

"Yes, yes."

Everyone agreed to retreat, Xue Yan turned his head and looked again, where could he still see Gu Changting's figure, he coughed, and then turned around and went into the imperial study to serve.

"Grandma, Aunt Qiu is here."

Hearing the announcement of the little girl outside, Liao Shifang sat up from the couch, and the girl who was waiting in the house, Fangcao, hurriedly took a soft pillow and put it behind her. Really, tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival, where in the house is grandma not to be in charge? But you're sick right now, what can you do?"

Liao said lightly, "What are you panicking about? You are here to stumble and sigh, I don't know what kind of happiness my aunt and grandmother have become. Now it's good, she is finally in charge of the house, but she can't show off her talents and pave the way for her future calls."

Aunt Qiu snorted coldly, sat on the embroidery pier in front of Liao's family, and said angrily, "It's really not the concubine's instigation, it's really the eldest aunt and grandmother who are too unpresentable. Who heard the widowed sister-in-law and sister-in-law running back to take charge of the house? Is she going to make this example? I only said that the prince must not tolerate such nonsense, and grandma must not be too weak, but the prince is busy, and grandma is sick again at this time. Fortunately, the kitchen is still in charge of the Xin family, and I am watching from the sidelines, and my aunt and grandmother seem to be unable to hold it back, and the next one is to take over the kitchen. It's just that at that time, she will no longer be restrained in the house, what can grandma do? We can't let my aunt take over all the affairs smoothly, right? Let me say, it's still my old idea, it's better to join Yao Niangzi ........ net

Before he finished speaking, he saw Liao's complexion change a few times, and suddenly wept and said, "Can't you see it? I can't protect myself now, who else can I unite? Do you think the prince doesn't know what his sister is? Why did he hold back? Isn't that obvious?"

"What's wrong?" Aunt Qiu asked cautiously, "Grandma...... Why are you so discouraged? You are the prince's wife, and now there is no princess, you are the greatest."

"Huh!" Liao shook his head and smiled miserably: "My aunt is gone, I will become a motherless child, who can still make decisions for me?" The prince had a falling out with the prince's brother before, and the whole capital knew about it, and he ...... He was dissatisfied with the prince's brother and the Liao family in the past, saying that we were rampant and would eventually be rewarded. Now that he is in this posture, he is unwilling to even do superficial work, isn't it obvious that he wants to break with the prince and the Liao family? Sure enough, you say, I'm caught in the middle, what else can I do?"

"Huh?" Aunt Qiu blinked and said in a panic, "Also...... It doesn't have to be that bad, right? Besides, there are a few people, the water spilled by the married daughter, since grandma married into the palace, it has nothing to do with the Liao family, and the prince can't implicate you for this because he turns against the prince Liao's family."

"The truth is that this truth is true, but I used to be too deeply involved with my mother's family, I ...... If my aunt was here, it would be fine, but now my aunt is gone, and I am afraid that the prince will not be all detained for those things in the past

On my head? At that time, I am afraid that I will not even have a foothold in this palace. 「

As she spoke, she was already in tears, and Aunt Qiu was busy comforting her. However, thinking that I now have a backer, my grandmother used to treat herself like a dog, and I finally don't have to be instructed by her calls in the future, because my heart is really happy.

After leaving the Liao family's courtyard and walking out for about a mile, Aunt Qiu couldn't help but look back at the spacious and exquisite courtyard, because she sighed leisurely, "Qiu Ling, have you noticed? Grandma's yard is now dead, and it has no spirit at all."

Qiu Ling wondered, "The courtyard is not human, how can it be spiritual and dead?"

Aunt Qiu smiled, "It's just a feeling. I remembered that in the past, what I envied most was my grandmother's yard, which was spacious and beautiful, and a few antiques in a room alone were worth a fortune. I thought at that time, I want to be her dog for the rest of my life, after all, the concubine is her aunt, and she loves her like her own daughter, and even the lady of the main room has to bow down to her, who would think? It's only been a few years, and the concubine's bones are not cold, and her qi is exhausted."

Qiu Ling said softly, "It seems that since Aunt Xin came out of Qingliang Pavilion, Grandma was suppressed by her. But the strange thing is that now that Aunt Xin has gone back, why is grandma not as good as day by day."

Aunt Qiu said lightly: "In the end, the Xin family has been favored, and now it seems that when she returned to Qingliang Pavilion, she really responded to her grandmother's words, but it was to retreat as advance, but it didn't matter. If you take a closer look, it's not just grandma's yard? This whole palace, in my opinion, is already in decline."

Qiu Ling was so panicked that she hurriedly looked around, and only after making sure that there was no one did she breathe a sigh of relief, and whispered, "Aunt Shenyan, let people listen to this, can we still live?"

After speaking, he said nervously, "Auntie, what do you say...... Zhang Ye, he can really ...... Can you really save us from the palace after it falls?"

Aunt Qiu smiled: "I was also worried in the past, but Yao Niangzi is right, no matter what I say to you, I was also selected to enter the palace, how many of the worlds he has seen can compare to us? Once the palace falls, we are not going to commit it, but we are just female dependents, at most, it will be sent to the Department of Teaching, and it will be redeemed for a few dollars. Don't say that there is this incense, but no, when he sees you and me like this, he can't spend money to redeem it? You need not be worried, but be with me, and serve him well, so that you may be well in the future."
