Being a cannon fodder female supporting role is not as good as marrying a lucky villain

"You're snoring so loud I can't sleep."

Gu Ning was so scared by Chu Shiling that her whole body tensed up, but soon, she pretended to be nonchalant and threw the blame on Chu Shiling.

Sure enough, Chu Shiling covered her mouth in disbelief after being dazed for a moment.

"I... I snore?"

As a noble girl who cares about face, Chu Shiling didn't want to believe that she would be so rude while asleep.

Gu Ning nodded, and sighed wearily: "The sound is too loud, so noisy that people can't sleep, don't you know?"

Chu Shiling had already thrown away her plan just now, she shook her head blankly: "Liu Yun never told me."

"You are the master and she is the servant, how could she tell you?" Gu Ning sighed.

The more Gu Ning said this, the more ashamed Chu Shiling felt.

"I……"

"It's okay, I won't say it outside."

Gu Ning waved his hand vigorously, making Chu Shiling's eyes light up: "Really?"

"Naturally." Gu Ning nodded, "You are my good sister, how could I tell your scandals? Isn't this damaging your face?"

These words made Chu Shiling even more moved, she nodded her head, and kept holding Gu Ning's hand tightly: "You are so kind!"

Gu Ning patted her on the shoulder, smoothing Chu Shiling's frizzy hair like smoothing the hair of a pet.

Although Chu Shiling is stupid, it is not a bad thing to have such a friend.

……

Because of Concubine Xian's suicide, the empress dowager who was over [-] years old worked hard all night. When Gu Ning, Chu Shiling and others went to see her the next day, her complexion was not very good. You can clearly see the dark blue under her eyes.

Seeing the young people in front of her, the queen mother didn't even bother to smile, she waved her hand: "The Ai family is already in good health, and there is no need for so many of you to be by my side."

However, she still felt uneasy, and added: "Just let Ning'er and Shi Ling stay with Ai's family."

After hearing the words, many people cast envious eyes at Gu Ning and Chu Shiling. It is a blessing to be favored by the Queen Mother. They are born in clans and their parents are not very outstanding daughters. If they want to marry A good family still depends on the empress dowager.

Being stared at by these pairs of eyes, Gu Ning pretended to be excited and honored: "Ning'er will definitely take good care of the empress dowager, and share her worries for the empress dowager."

Seeing that Gu Ning readily agreed, Chu Shiling hurriedly bowed to the Queen Mother without thinking otherwise.

On the surface, the two were respectful to the queen mother, which made the queen mother very useful.

Gu Ning was thinking that there are still many secrets in the palace. Since she came here, if she didn't take something with her, she would be a little sorry for her sacrifice in front of the queen mother.

"Ning'er, come to Ai's house."

The queen mother waved at Gu Ning, her eyes were very kind.

If it wasn't for Gu Ning who hadn't read the original book and knew that the Queen Mother had the lives of dozens of concubines and heirs, she would have been deceived by her gentle appearance.

There was a flash of deep thought in Gu Ning's eyes, and soon she raised her head, and a pair of extremely clear eyes met the Queen Mother directly.

"Empress Dowager, what are your orders?"

"The Ai family wants to apologize to you for Yun Yi. What he did before is really sorry for you." The queen mother sighed lightly, "He has you in his heart, but he was deceived by the villain and let the two of you feel sorry for you." There was a misunderstanding in between, which caused you to drift apart."

Gu Ning heard the Queen Mother's words, and felt a burst of cold sweat behind his back.

Isn't it true, you still wanted to catch an adulterer last night, and you started to match yourself and Chu Yunyi today?

The queen mother saw that Gu Ning's little face was full of confusion, and there was a gentle smile on the wrinkled face: "The Ai family knows that it is too late to say anything now, but don't bear grudges against Yun Yi, he was also forced to help him. .”

Gu Ning sneered again and again in his heart, why was he forced to be helpless?Could it be that others can force him to flirt with Gu Qingqiu and keep secret?

But under the gaze of the Queen Mother, Gu Ning just lowered his head, rubbing his fingers uneasily, with a flattered expression.

Seeing this scene, the Queen Mother breathed a sigh of relief.

She knew that Gu Ning still had affection for Chu Yunyi.

Concubine Xian committed suicide last night, and she got an extremely important piece of news—Master Zheng Tianshi has already turned his target to Chu Yunyi, saying that direct bloodline is more effective.

Now that the Jiang family has collapsed, Chu Yunyi has nothing to rely on. Whether he can sit firmly as the crown prince depends entirely on the emperor's thoughts.

But the emperor is now obsessed with ghosts. Once Zheng Tianshi's lobbying is successful, Chu Yunyi's life will be in danger. Thinking about it this way, she must find a new backer for Chu Yunyi, so that the emperor will not dare to act rashly.

Looking around, only the Pei family is the most suitable for Chu Yunyi!

Before Gu Ning was infatuated with Chu Yunyi, if he hadn't been heartbroken, why would he choose to marry someone else?But Gu Ning is infatuated, she only needs to lobby for a while and make a promise, and she will definitely turn around.

So, this is the one that came out today.

The queen mother patted Gu Ning's hand, and said softly: "Aijia likes you, and Yunyi likes you too, but he dare not show his heart to you again."

Gu Ning lowered her head shyly, scolding her inwardly.

The Empress Dowager and Chu Yunyi really held on to the Pei family and refused to let go. Where did they have the confidence to think that they would be fooled again?

"Ning'er, what do you mean by Yun Yi...?"

"I...I don't know."

Gu Ning kept his head down, lest the Queen Mother see the sarcasm in her eyes.

Seeing Gu Ning's appearance, the Queen Mother became more certain of her guess.

With a smile in her eyes, she looked at Gu Ning as if she was a kind elder: "Ning'er, the Ai family will make decisions for you. During this period, you should stay in the palace well."

Gu Ning responded in a low voice: "Thank you, Empress Dowager."

Don't let this chance come to you for nothing!

She was worried about how to find an excuse to stay. For Xie Yan, even if he had enough troops to overthrow the dog emperor in one fell swoop, it would be the next strategy. The innocence of the wronged first prince is to let the people of the world know the evil deeds of the dog emperor.

And the key to this innocence is a will left by the late emperor.

In the book, this edict did not appear until the finale, but there are still clues that the edict is still in the imperial city.

As long as this edict can be found, it can be confirmed that when the first emperor was critically ill, the heir chosen was the first prince, not the dog emperor, and Xie Yan should be the heir of the Chu state. He is also famous for his crusade against the dog emperor.

Thinking of this, the smile in Gu Ning's eyes became more obvious, and he was very satisfied with the Queen Mother's proposal.

Seeing this, the queen mother was also very satisfied.

As soon as she left the main hall, she raised her foot and walked towards the Taiye Pool.

Chu Shiling hurriedly followed behind her, her eyes were full of anxiety. Although she didn't hear the conversation between Gu Ning and the Queen Mother just now, she had been living in the imperial city since she was a child, and she was very aware of the Queen Mother's hypocrisy.

not to mention……

"You don't want to abandon Lord Xie, do you?"

Chu Shiling's eyes widened, feeling very uneasy, thinking that Gu Ning had been away for a long time last night, a thought popped out of her brain that stopped turning at this moment.

"Did you have a private meeting with the prince last night?"

"What nonsense!"

Gu Ning rolled her eyes angrily, and pinched the flesh of Chu Shiling's cheek, making it impossible for her to say what was on her lips.

However, Chu Shiling's eyes opened even wider: "You...uh..."

"Who do you think is better, Xie Yan or the prince?" Gu Ning asked.

"Of course it's Mr. Xie." Chu Shiling replied without thinking, "When I had tea with a few noble girls before, who didn't envy you for having a husband like Mr. Xie?"

As she said that, she also persuaded Gu Ning: "Think about it, Mr. Xie is handsome and obedient to you. Except for his status, he is not as good as the prince, but everything else is worse than the prince. With your family background, there is no need Like everyone else, I want to marry the prince in exchange for the future of the family."

Gu Ning nodded: "You are right, I also think Xie Yan is better than the prince."

"Then you still..."

"I didn't do anything, it was your own thoughts."

Hearing this, Chu Shiling's eyes widened, but she still couldn't believe it.

Gu Ning said slowly: "I stayed in the palace not because of the queen mother's matchmaking, but because of..."

Seeing Chu Shiling's flickering big eyes, Gu Ning smiled, and suddenly stopped talking.

She was like this, which made Chu Shi's face flushed with aura: "You can tell me what it is for!"

Gu Ning snorted softly and raised his chin: "You will know later."

Chu Shiling was at a loss, but she couldn't get the truth from Gu Ning's mouth, so she could only stomp her feet fiercely in a frenzy: "Then when will we go!"

"Don't worry, don't worry, I heard that there is a peach grove beside the Taiye Pond." Gu Ning held Chu Shiling's arm and said with a smile, "We have nothing to do in the palace, how about we go enjoy the flowers together? "

Hearing this, Chu Shiling's expression was complicated, and she persuaded in a low voice: "Why don't we change places? Although the peach forest is beautiful, if we go, I'm afraid we will touch the emperor's bad luck."

"Why?" Gu Ning looked puzzled.

Seeing that there was no one around, Chu Shiling leaned into Gu Ning's ear and said softly, "There is a ruin next to the peach forest, which is the East Palace."

Seeing that Gu Ning was still puzzled, Chu Shiling was so anxious that her speech speed became faster: "You are still from the Pei family! Why can't you even understand this? The prince is a thorn in the emperor's heart, even if there is already It became a ruin, and no one dared to go there!"

Gu Ning naturally understood this truth, but the reason why she made this proposal was to go to this ruin to find out.

So, under Chu Shiling's persuasion, she said a sentence: "But the prince is long gone, and the new East Palace also has a new owner, why does the emperor still have a heart for a ruin?"

"That's naturally..." Chu Shiling just wanted to tell the rumors he had heard, then swallowed it back into his stomach, and only replied in a low voice, "Don't worry about it so much! Anyway, you just listen to me! Can it hurt you?"
