Gu Changqing returned to the residence of marquis Ding'an.

Gu Chengfeng and Gu Chenglin went to the back mountain to pick fruit. He went back to his house.

He sat down by the bed.

Without an outsider, there was a trace of expression on his ice face, which remained unchanged for thousands of years. He frowned and untied his clothes.

His neck, shoulders, even the back of his hands and wrists were full of shocking scratches. In some places, blood beads oozed out. The blood beads dried up and adhered to his clothes. When he peeled them off, he gasped with pain.

"Oh! My son

Holding the clothes he had just taken down from the clothesline, he saw Gu Changqing's scratch on his neck. He was so scared that he asked, "which little hoof did it?"

Gu Changqing eyes a cold, Shua's clothes pulled up: "come in won't knock?"

"I don't know you're back," he said! Just now I was still here. I went out to collect my clothes. Who ever thought that Shizi would come back... In other words, Shizi, what's the matter with your injuries? Which girl did it? Is it outside the mansion or in our house? "

He didn't dare to talk about hooves.

"It's none of your business." Gu Changqing stood up and hung his sword on the shelf.

"Oh." The boy came to the bedside and folded the clothes one by one. If he didn't, he put them in the cupboard and hung them.

"Why women?" Gu Changqing suddenly spoke.

The little fellow said, "is that true? It's easy to scratch at first sight. Who keeps nails for men? "

Gu Changqing's eyes moved: "don't talk nonsense."

The little fellow murmured: "the son of the world doesn't let the little one say, the little one just doesn't say."

Gu Changqing was standing in front of the sword stand, where he was scratched was a dull pain, which was different from the sharp and direct pain of sword wound. The pain was strange and strange.

Flashed in the brain she was in the carriage, Gu Changqing closed his eyes.

The little fellow's eyes flashed and asked cautiously, "but Shizi, how did you suddenly figure it out?"

Gu Changqing did not understand: "what suddenly figured out?"

The young man said with a smile: "I don't want to tell you the truth. Shizi is not a girl these years. He doesn't even have a maid in the yard, and then he doesn't want to discuss marriage. The young people are all wondering... Does Shizi like men?"

Gu Changqing face a black: "go out!"

The boy trembled and went out bitterly.

Then he went to inform the old Marquis and Mrs. Gu that his son was enlightened, and his son met a woman!

After several hours of treatment, the king's injury was finally stabilized at night.

After looking at him to drink the medicine, the government doctor then withdrew.

Zhuang Taifu came to the king's room of an County. His face was not pretty. They didn't speak, and the atmosphere was dignified.

Zhuang Taifu said, "I'll ask you for the last time. Did you really do it?"

"It's me," said the prince of onjun, "and that's the answer my grandfather asked me many times."

Zhuang Taifu hates iron but not steel. This grandson is his most valued back. He places his hope for the prosperity of the dealer for the next century on him. However, he destroys his future and makes such a mistake.

He suppressed his anger and said, "it's not any girl in the street who can be dismissed by a sum of money or a little power. It's the daughter of marquis Ding'an's family. Even if she was adopted by the wrong daughter since childhood, she was also on the genealogy and became a member of the family. Not to mention that the old Marquis Ding'an and Gu Changqing are highly valued by his majesty. You can't deny this account. You have to give her a place. "

Princess an, lying on the bed weakly, said with a dead heart, "follow my grandfather's arrangement."

It's not her anyway. What's the difference between marrying Miss yuan or Miss Gu?

The next day, Zhuang Taifu sent a housekeeper of Zhuang's house to Ding'an Marquis's house to tell the Marquis and Mrs. Gu what he wanted.

"My master said that he would like Miss Nagu to be your concubine."

As soon as this remark came out, Mrs. Gu was very happy. The position of Ding'an Marquis's residence in the capital city was that they could get married with the makers. Even the position of side imperial concubine did not insult Gu Jinyu.

But the old Marquis's face sank down: "this is what your banker told Marquis Ding'an! Hum, you are bullying the Marquis's house of Ding'an. Without Gu Jiajun and military power, you can let you bully and butcher, right? "

The housekeeper gave a faint smile: "what did Mr. Gu say? Taifu didn't mean to despise Dingan Marquis's house. It's just that the capital has spread. This Miss Gu is not the flesh and blood of marquis Gu and his wife. She was born and raised in the Marquis's house by mistake. With all due respect, my young master is the prince granted by his majesty. He has worked for the prince in the state of Chen for ten years and made great contributions to the state of Zhao. Is his concubine a peasant girl in the countryside? Not to mention that not long ago, Miss Gu lied. I heard that Miss Gu falsely took the credit for the bellows first, stole the credit for mortar later, and transformed the bellows privately, harming countless craftsmen of the Ministry of industry and causing huge losses to the Ministry of industry Yamen. In a word, Miss Gu has no blood relationship with the Marquis son of Ding'an. Is the Marquis willing to let him marry a woman of this character? "

"How can that evil girl be worthy of Changqing!" Mrs. Gu opened her mouth in a calm voice.

As soon as she finished, she received a cold look from the marquis.

She realized that she had said something wrong. Her eyes flashed and she held up her cup for tea.

The housekeeper knew that he had won the match, so he didn't repeat it any more. He arched his hand with deep meaning: "if the old Marquis and the old lady don't have any opinions about this marriage, the younger one will go back to Taifu."

Old lady Gu opened her mouth and said something. She was hit by the cold eyes of the old Marquis, and she was silent in an instant.

The housekeeper went away with pride.

In fact, the heart is not happy, side imperial concubine? With Gu Jinyu that infamous woman also deserve?

She's still cheap!

"Master..." Mrs. Gu realized that she had just made a slip of the tongue and caused them to lose the situation. She didn't dare to complain about anything. She just said, "in fact, Jinyu has a heart. Although she has made many mistakes, she has reformed herself. She went to ciyouzhuang a few days ago. The master and lady Shufei support her. I don't think the banker will treat her harshly, even if she is the side concubine. "

But the old Marquis could not accept the title of side imperial concubine.

He never thought of using his children to go up to anyone, but he had a principle that his daughter would rather marry a civilian than a concubine.

Side imperial concubine listens to compare concubine room nobility, but after all is not right wife.

The Marquis went to Gu Jinyu's yard.

Gu Jinyu recuperated in the room, pale and haggard.

The old Marquis asked her, "let me ask you, if I can suppress this matter, would you like to marry someone else?"

Gu Jinyu knelt down in front of the old Marquis and said with red eyes: "Jinyu and the princess have a skin relationship. How can she have the face to marry someone else? If the dealer doesn't recognize it, Jin Yu will go to the nunnery to shave her head and be her aunt... "

The Marquis frowned and sighed.

No matter he didn't hurt her, no one would trample on the face of Hou Fu.

What's more, it's the fault of the makers. They bullied people and didn't want to be responsible. On the contrary, they forced the family's daughter into the nunnery to be their aunt. That's not the truth.

The old Marquis immediately entered the palace, but was told that the emperor was out of the palace, and he went out with his father-in-law.

"When will your majesty be back?" At the main entrance of the palace, the old Marquis asked Duke Wei.

Duke Wei said: "I don't know. Does the Marquis have something urgent to do with your majesty?"

The old Marquis was worried that the Empress Dowager Zhuang would communicate with the Empress Dowager ahead of time, and let the Empress Dowager Zhuang take Gu Jinyu as the Empress Dowager. Then it would be too late to say anything.

"There is something urgent," said the marquis

"Ah..." Duke Wei thought for a moment and said, "Your Majesty's whereabouts are inconvenient for me to tell you. If the old Marquis can trust me, I'm willing to convey it on behalf of the old Marquis."

That's all.

The old Marquis arched his hand: "thank you, Mr. Wei."

An hour later, a carriage stopped outside the nunnery.

Duke Wei stepped down from the carriage.

The emperor is feeding imperial concubine Jing to drink medicine in the Zen room.

Princess Jing was sitting at the head of the bed, covered with a thin mattress.

"I'll do it myself." She said, "it's not a serious illness. It's just a little cold. Why should your majesty come here?"

The emperor frowned and said, "if I hadn't arranged for someone to protect my mother's concubine secretly, I still don't know that she was ill. She used to fool me like this and hide everything from me."

Princess Jing said with a cool smile: "people always have such and such small problems when they are old. How can they be the same as when they were young? Your majesty is the king of a country. He manages everything every day. There's no need to arouse the masses for such a small matter. "

The emperor snorted: "who said that? I see the Empress Dowager's health is very good! It's three points stronger than before

Static Princess slightly a Zheng, obviously did not expect the emperor will suddenly mention the Empress Dowager.

With a smile, she said, "the Empress Dowager's strong body is a blessing for the state of Zhao. Her Majesty has been working hard all these years, and she has shared a lot for her majesty."

The emperor snorted, "the mother does not have to speak for her."

Princess Jing said with a smile: "I'm not speaking for her. I've known her for so many years. What temperament can I not understand? She gave birth to a knife mouth, strong and unforgiving, and her heart is toward her majesty. "

The emperor said in a cold voice, "if she is really facing me, she should hand over the power of the imperial government and spend her life in Renshou palace."

"Well, well, I won't say. The medicine is cold." Static too imperial concubine carries medicine bowl to begin to drink medicine.

The emperor watched her quietly, and suddenly his eyes fell on the wooden hairpin on the top of Princess Jing's head. His eyebrows slightly frowned and said, "although my mother's concubine is eating fast and praying to Buddha, her days are too hard. She doesn't even have a decent hairpin. It's not like the Empress Dowager. She's full of extravagance, surrounded by pearls

Static too imperial concubine opened mouth, want to talk and stop.

She continued to take the medicine.

The emperor glanced at the table and asked mother Cai, who was waiting beside him, "is there no candied fruit in the room?"

Tsai Ma Ma chuckled: "the imperial concubine does not eat this."

The emperor hummed coldly, "my mother's concubine is very hard-working. There are eight kinds of preserves in Renshou palace

Princess Jing's eyelashes trembled. She drank the medicine at one go, handed the empty bowl to mammy Cai, and wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief. She said with a funny face: "Your Majesty always mentions the Empress Dowager today."

The emperor choked: "do I have one?"

"Well." Princess Jing looks at him with a smile.

The emperor snorted: "it's not that she has gone too far. I'm so angry that my head hurts. I just hope to seize her real power as soon as possible, so that I can take her back to the palace with ease. "

"You." But she shook her head.

"Your Majesty, Duke Wei is here." The little eunuch came in and reported.

The emperor said, "what is he doing here?"

Quiet too imperial concubine way: "go to have a look, presumably is to have an important matter."

It took the emperor two quarters of an hour to come back with a dignified look.

"Your Majesty, what's the matter?" Static too imperial concubine sits at the bedside to ask.

The emperor always said everything to Princess Jing. He sighed and said, "Gu Chao has come to ask for the imperial edict. Let me marry Princess an for his granddaughter."

The quiet imperial concubine is slightly stunned: "old Ding an hou? How could he get married to the dealer? "

The two families are loyal to different camps, not to mention the incompatibility between fire and water, but marriage is really not the first choice for both sides.

The emperor said helplessly: "the king of an County despised Miss Gu, but he didn't want to allow her to be a concubine. He only treated her with the courtesy of a side concubine. Gu Chao doesn't pursue fame and wealth, and he doesn't cling to power. But he can't swallow this tone. He thinks that the dealer is deceiving people too much and doesn't have the attitude of making amends. "

Princess Jing was silent for a long time and said, "I've heard of the son of the king of an County. I didn't expect him to do such a thing."

The emperor said, "to be honest, I'm surprised."

Princess Jing looked at him and asked, "Your Majesty doesn't agree with this marriage?"

The emperor nodded: "to tell you the truth, I do have some hesitation."

Princess Jing said in a warm voice, "Your Majesty is worried that the situation will be unfavorable to your majesty after their marriage?"

The emperor shook his head: "no, Gu Chao is not this kind of person. Besides, Gu Jinyu is not Gu Chao's granddaughter. She is just a peasant child who has been held wrong since childhood." The emperor believed that the Marquis would not change his position for her sake.

Static too imperial concubine thought: "that, your majesty is to worry empress dowager not to agree?"

When the emperor heard about the empress dowager, he looked cold: "the Empress Dowager doesn't know about it, and I don't intend to ask her for advice."

If you ask, there's no room for change. If you don't do it, you have to seize the opportunity.

"What is your majesty worried about?" Asked Princess Jing.

The emperor hesitated for a moment and said, "this woman has been in trouble and has a bad reputation." The most important thing is that she took the credit of the little miracle doctor, which made the emperor unable to bear, so the emperor was not willing to praise Gu Jinyu.

Static too imperial concubine pour also didn't ask is to rush into concrete what disaster, she dun dun, smile to ask: "that she can change?"

The emperor said, "I heard that I had reformed myself. I went to ciyouzhuang to take care of the children there without telling my family. I was so tired that I fainted."

Princess Jing said with a smile: "Your Majesty, it's very important that you can correct your mistakes. Besides, marquis Ding'an has done a lot of hard work. For your Majesty's sake, you don't hesitate to demobilize the family guard and swear on your back. If your majesty can't even agree to his small request, it's too cold for the marquis."

The emperor thought about it carefully. The Marquis really didn't ask for anything. It was so easy for him to open his mouth, but he refused. It was a bit unkind.

Quiet too imperial concubine again way: "say up, old Marquis ye also saved my life in those days."

"How could it be?" The emperor looked at Princess Jing in amazement.

Princess Jing bowed her head and laughed at herself: "that's what happened before I entered the palace. I went to the temple to offer incense. On the way back, I met the brigands. Thanks to the help of the Marquis, I would have died in the wilderness."

The emperor said in a daze, "I have never heard from my mother."

Princess Jing looked at him with a smile: "at that time, I had been selected as a pretty girl, and I had to go out of the house without permission. I ran out secretly, and I also blame my youth for being naughty at that time."

The emperor suddenly realized: "so it is." He pondered for a moment and said, "I will consider the request of the marquis."

"Well." Princess Jing nodded with a smile.

The emperor talked with Princess Jing for a while, and he Gonggong urged: "Your Majesty, it's time to go back to the palace."

Static too imperial concubine looking at dark sky color, in the eye flash a silk not to give up, she patted the hand of the Emperor: "Your Majesty, return to the palace."

The emperor sighed and said to He Gong, "what about the peace talisman you asked for?"

Duke he quickly took out a brocade box from his sleeve, opened it and handed it to the Emperor: "please! It's Abbot Yuan who has opened the light

Princess Jing looked at the peaceful talisman that seemed to emit endless Buddha Qi: "this is..."

"Oh." The emperor said, "for the Empress Dowager."

Static too imperial concubine tiny a Leng.

Duke Wei said with a smile: "the Empress Dowager was tired and ill a few days ago because she stayed up all night looking after her majesty."

Quiet too imperial concubine laughs a way: "rare you mother and son two ice clear past grudge."

The emperor looked at Princess Jing and said, "my mother is my mother. She is only the Empress Dowager of a country. This peace talisman is given to the Empress Dowager by the king of a country, not by my son. What's more, I can't hide my whereabouts from her. Instead of asking her to come to her mother's trouble, I'd better tell her that I'm here specially for her. I'll see her by the way. "

Static too imperial concubine a face helplessly smile: "the Empress Dowager won't how to me, your majesty more worry."
