The charming legitimate daughter is reborn, addicted to the abstinent prince's pampering

Meng Ying's crying stopped abruptly.

What will happen?

With the character of the Gu family man, he will definitely return to the capital to seek revenge.

Once it fails, the nine tribes will be implicated.

Her body shook even more.

"But...but if I don't listen to the imperial concubine, she will falsely accuse the Gu family of collaborating with the enemy and treason. The emperor loves her so much, he will definitely believe it...by then..."

Until then, the Gu family still cannot escape the fate of being implicated in the nine clans.

Gu Wangshu was very sure of this.

"But at least the emperor will not touch the Gu family immediately. The Gu family will be safe until next spring, because the northern border needs the Gu family."

Bordering the northern border of Helian Kingdom are the Mobei nomads.

After winter, there was a shortage of food and grass in Mobei, so every year they would go south to invade the Helian Kingdom and plunder it.

A month ago, Mobei invaded the Helian border again.

According to the practice in previous years, at this time the emperor would issue an order to transport winter clothes and grain to the border so that the soldiers could be well fed and clothed to resist foreign enemies.

But this year things have changed.

Concubine Wen blew the pillow breeze into the old emperor's ears and sent grain, grass and winter clothes to Mobei in vain.

According to her, as long as the Mobei nomads have food and clothing, they will not invade again and again.

Doing so will not only demonstrate His Majesty's Sacred Heart and Compassion, but also the magnanimity of a great nation. Helian Kingdom will also be able to avoid a war and the people will be able to recuperate, which is a good thing for the benefit of the country and the people.

When other countries see you, they will also praise His Majesty's wise demeanor and have good relations with our country. Isn't it the best of both worlds?

The old emperor was fascinated by her beauty and agreed without hesitation.

however.

Mobei did not give up after getting winter clothes and food. Instead, they became more and more rampant. After eating and drinking, they took pleasure in harassing the border gates, making the people miserable.

On the other hand, the Helian soldiers guarding the border could only endure hunger and cold in single clothes, struggling to support themselves.

Meng Ying figured it out and burst into tears again.

She was wrong, she couldn't be more wrong.

She was deceived by Concubine Wen!

Fortunately, Xiao Shu stopped her in time. Fortunately, Xiao Shu saved His Highness.

Otherwise...she couldn't imagine the consequences.

Guilt flooded her like a tide, and Meng Ying knocked her head to the ground with a "bang".

When she raised her head again, blood flowed from her forehead and flowed into her eyes, followed by tears, like tears of blood.

"Would you be able to forgive me if I tried to make amends later?"

The blood on her face hurt Gu Wangshu's heart.

"perhaps......"

The ambiguous answer gave Meng Ying enough hope.

She staggered up from the ground. She had been kneeling for so long that her legs seemed not to be her own and she could not stand firmly.

She held on, smiled at Gu Wangshu, then turned and left.

Every step I took, my knees felt like needles pricking me.

She gritted her teeth and remained silent. Her hunched back looked more like an old woman than a 16-year-old girl in her prime.

Meng Ying staggered out of the yard.

The pain in his eyes was slowly replaced by hatred.

Concubine Wen! ! !

It is unforgivable to dare to hurt the Gu family and the relatives she cares about most.

Sooner or later, she will also destroy her home.

......

Standing in the rain, Gu Wangshu was lost in thought.

Qiu Chi, who held an umbrella for her, said with concern:

"Miss, it's cold outside, please go back to the house."

Gu Wangshu looked up at the sky, which was gray with rain.

"What time is it?"

Qiuchi thought for a while and replied:

"This servant only looked at the hour before the young lady woke up. It was the end of the Chen hour, and it is about just after the Si hour." (Si hour: 9 to 11 o'clock)

"At this time...the second uncle has already gone to court."

"Yes, the second master should be rushing home."

Qiu Chi was a little puzzled and didn't understand why the young lady suddenly mentioned the second master.

Gu Wangshu picked up her skirt and hurried out of the small courtyard. Qiu Chi quickly followed to hold an umbrella for her.

"Miss, where are we going?"

"Go and say hello to grandma."

On the one hand, it's to say hello, and on the other hand, it's to see my second uncle.

The second uncle would go to my grandmother's place to say hello every time he went to court, and he would also have lunch with her.

She guessed that the second uncle would definitely mention Winter Clothes at Border Gate and Zhou Ziyan in prison.

However, the emperor was ignorant and ignorant, and could not see through Concubine Wen's sinister intentions, so he turned a blind eye to the border officers and Zhou Ziyan who was in prison.

She was going to her grandmother to see if her second uncle had any solutions.

Gu Wangshu walked a little faster and braved the rain to arrive at Mrs. Gu's Cijing Hall.

When the mother-in-law saw her, she quickly went to inform the old lady.

Before she could enter the inner room, Mrs. Gu's voice came out first.

There is also care in the anger.

"We just fell into the water yesterday, and it's raining again today. Why do you, a kid, come to grandma's house? You don't know how to take care of your own body."

The cotton felt curtain was opened, and before Gu Wangshu could say hello, his hands were held by the oncoming old lady, and he pulled her to sit on the warm couch.

"Look at how cold your hands are." Mrs. Gu's eyes were filled with distress, and she turned to the grandma who was waiting beside her and said:

"Lanyue, quickly bring Mrs. Tang and warm the lady's hands."

"Alas!" Lan Yue agreed, and after a while she got a stove for Gu Wangshu, not forgetting to add a fox fur coat to her legs.

After all the hard work, the chill in Gu Wangshu's body was driven away, his body became warmer, and his heart became even warmer.

Looking at her grandmother's face full of love, Gu Wangshu felt sad and almost cried.

During the year when she was a lonely ghost, she could do nothing but watch her loved ones die in front of her.

That feeling of powerlessness, even now when I recall it, is like falling into a bottomless pit, causing the sky and the earth to become inoperable.

Gu Wangshu put his face in Mrs. Gu's arms, held her waist tightly with his hands, and spoke in a muffled voice.

"Grandma, I miss you so much."

Madam Gu smiled and joked.

"You're so old and you're still acting like a spoiled brat." She said this, but it felt very good in her heart.

A slightly older hand stroked Gu Wangshu's long, disheveled hair.

"Are you thinking about grandma so much that you even forgot to dress up?" Mrs. Gu laughed and joked: "Your second uncle will see you later and make fun of you."

With that said, she asked Lan Yue to bring a comb and combed Gu Wangshu's hair herself, every stroke as gently as if she were treating a treasure.

At this moment, Gu Wangshu was as docile as a cat, which was in sharp contrast to the one she had last night, who was showing her teeth and claws with murderous intent.

She quietly let her grandmother take care of her, and they chatted with each other.

After about a cup of tea, a "squeaking" sound came from outside.

The sound sounded like something wooden grinding against the floor, from far to near.

Gu Wangshu looked around and saw a man coming in from outside.

The man was wearing dark blue clothes. His figure should be slender and tall, but he had lost both legs and could only sit in a wheelchair.

His eyes were like an eagle, powerful but not angry, but extremely firm, as if they could see through the soul. They were eyes that had experienced the baptism of war and seen life and death.

This person is her second uncle Gu Chengfeng, who once served as General of the Hussars and guarded Taicang Pass at the junction of Helian Kingdom and Nalan Kingdom.

Later, the two countries fought. Gu Chengfeng led 20 Helian soldiers to repel the [-] Nalan army and protected Taicang Pass. However, he lost his legs in that battle and was transferred back to Kyoto. The general became the Minister of the Ministry of War, and he changed from a military general capable of recruiting and fighting to a civil servant responsible for the deployment and arrangement of the army.

Shortly after the defeat of the Nalan Kingdom, they sent envoys to reconcile with the Helian Kingdom. As a bridge between the two countries to establish peaceful, friendly and amity relations, Concubine Wen was sent to the Helian Kingdom to make peace.

Judging from Concubine Wen's various actions to confuse the emperor's heart and harm the wise ministers, her arrival is definitely not for the sake of harmony between the two countries, but a premeditated beauty trap.

In the previous life, Concubine Wen succeeded, Helian Kingdom and Mobei Sandpiper Clam fought, and it was Nalan Kingdom that finally won.

A good soldier who can kill without any blood.

To subjugate the enemy without fighting is nothing more than this.
