Don't panic when the end of the world comes, the boss of the group has a system

Gu Ziqiu is the eldest son of the Duke of Xingguo’s Mansion. He is 18 years old and is Lin Yuyan’s engaged fiancé.

Duke Xingguo Gu Yunliu is the General Dingnan of Dongchu. He has 300,000 troops under his command and guards the border between Dongchu and Nanyou.

Gu Yunliu, 54 years old this year, has many concubines and children.

Crown Prince Gu Ziqiu is Gu Yunliu's only legitimate son. Old Madam Yuan gave birth to him with great difficulty when she was 32 years old.

In the Mansion of Duke Xingguo, Gu Ziqiu has 6 older half brothers, several younger half brothers, and many older sisters.

The old Duke has passed away. The current Duke of Xingguo is the elder brother of Concubine Gu, who was the favorite concubine of the late Emperor Chongde. The current Concubine Gu lives in her son, Prince Kang’s Mansion.

During the reign of Emperor Chongde, Empress Su and Concubine Gu fought to the death.

Su and Gu both have a son, who is two years older than them.

Su's father was the General of Dingxi, and Gu's father was the General of Dingnan. Both the Su and Gu families had 30 troops.

The Su family and the Gu family were evenly matched in the fight for succession.

In the battle for succession between the Su and Gu families, many officials became cannon fodder.

In the 18th year of Chongde, the previous prime minister of the Gu family was confiscated and exiled.

Su secretly tried to win over Lin Youze, who was the Minister of Personnel at the time.

With the secret help of the Su family, Lin Youze successfully became the prime minister.

In the 19th year of Chongde, with the support of Prime Minister Lin and a large number of civil officials, the 17-year-old Emperor Tianwu Chu Yuanhao was named crown prince.

In the 20th year of Chongde, Emperor Chongde passed away, and Emperor Tianwu Chu Yuanhao ascended the throne and changed the reign title to "Tianwu".

Prime Minister Lin Youze made great contributions to Emperor Tianwu's ascension to the throne.

Before Emperor Tianwu was crowned as the crown prince, he married Empress Xiao at the age of 16.

After Emperor Tianwu was named Crown Prince, Xiao became the Crown Princess, and Empress Su chose Lin Yuwei as the Crown Prince's concubine.

Lin Yuwei, who was chosen as the prince's concubine, was the eldest daughter of Prime Minister Lin. She was only 12 years old at the time.

In the second year of Tianwu, Lin Yuwei, who had just come of age, was named a noble concubine by Emperor Tianwu, brought into the palace, and granted the residence in "Chaoyang Palace".

One year after Concubine Lin entered the palace, she gave birth to the current second prince Chu Rui.

-

The Gu family and the Lin family have been sworn enemies for more than 20 years, and there is no possibility of an alliance between them.

One day in early June this year, the Gu family actually invited Wang the matchmaker, a famous Beijing celebrity, to come to the Prime Minister's Mansion to help Gu Ziqiu propose marriage to the Lin family.

Steward Lin reported to Prime Minister Lin: Gu Ziqiu wants to marry the second young lady...

After hearing this, Prime Minister Lin didn't believe it at all. He ignored Matchmaker Wang and thought she had made a mistake. He asked the housekeeper to kick her out.

A few days later, Wang, the matchmaker hired by the Gu family, came to the Prime Minister's residence again to propose marriage.

This time, Lin Yue'e met with Matchmaker Wang...

"Mrs. Lin, a few days ago I came to the Prime Minister's Mansion to propose marriage to the second young lady of your Prime Minister's Mansion. Your housekeeper kicked me out before I could even finish my words.

Last time I failed to do it, and Prince Gu begged me to do it again.

Master Gu said that this would definitely succeed, as the Second Miss Lin family liked him and she said she would not marry anyone else.

If it weren’t for what Master Gu said this time, I wouldn’t have taken on this matter…”

After hearing what Matchmaker Wang said, Lin Yue'e was so angry that her eyes went dark and she couldn't help but yelled, "Get out!"

Manager Lin once again drove Matchmaker Wang out.

Don’t you know whether the daughter you raised yourself likes Master Gu or not?

Yan'er is so simple. Apart from attending various banquets, she hardly goes out. How come she likes Master Gu?

She would not marry anyone but him? Did Yan'er know who Prince Gu was?

After Matchmaker Wang left, Lin Yue'e was furious and complained in her heart...

After Prime Minister Lin came back from court, Lin Yue'e, who had calmed down, quickly told Prime Minister Lin about the matter.

"Master, the Gu family knew that our two families were sworn enemies, but they still shamelessly came to propose marriage. After being rejected once, they came a second time and even said that Yan'er liked him, Master Gu. Did Yan'er really meet Gu Ziqiu when she went out to the banquet?"

"Madam, this matter is not simple. Please ask Yan'er in private. Please explain it to her in a nice way and don't scare her..."

So Lin Yue'e and Aunt Mei went to Lin Yuyan's Lanyue Pavilion together...

"Mother, aunt, why are you here?"

Lin Yuyan, who was embroidering in the Lanyue Loft, heard Zhishu say that her mother and aunt were coming, so she quickly got up and went downstairs...

Lin Yuyan greeted Lin Yue'e and Aunt Mei and walked into the main hall on the ground floor of Lanyue Pavilion together...

"Yan'er, come here and sit down. Mother has something to ask you."

Lin Yue'e walked into the hall of Lanyue Pavilion, sat down on the chair on the right hand side of the upper seat, pointed at the chair closest to her and said to Lin Yuyan.

Lin Yuyan felt that her mother was a little strange today, but she still walked over obediently and sat on the chair.

"Yan'er, do you know Gu Ziqiu? He's the prince Gu from the Duke of Xingguo's mansion."

"Mother, you mean Master Gu Ziqiu! I know him! I know him!

There are many girls in the capital who know Master Gu. Master Gu is handsome, has a good family background, is a martial arts expert, and is a juren. He is the best candidate for husband in the hearts of many girls in the capital!"

Seeing Lin Yuyan blushing and talking excitedly about Master Gu's goodness, Lin Yue'e's heart instantly turned cold.

"Is Prince Gu really that good? How come I haven't heard of him? The younger brother of Empress Xiao, Master Xiao, is also talented in both civil and military affairs, has a good family background, and is also good-looking. His family came to propose marriage some time ago, why didn't you agree?"

"Um, mother, it's not that Young Master Xiao is bad, it's... it's..."

The more Lin Yuyan spoke, the lower her voice became, but she was thinking in her heart: I have never met Young Master Xiao, how could I agree to the proposal of marriage, and how could Young Master Xiao compare with Master Gu.

It is said that Master Xiao is romantic, amorous and incompetent. Before he gets married, he already has several concubines in his courtyard. He is already in his 20s, but still has no proper job.

Yan'er is innocent and simple-minded, and she won't lie. The matchmaker must be talking nonsense.

Looking at Lin Yuyan who was hesitating, Lin Yue'e had already guessed what was going on, but she still tried to ask another question.

"Yan'er, if Prince Gu came to the Lin family to ask for your hand in marriage, would you agree?"

"Mother, you said it was 'if'. How could Master Gu be interested in me? There are so many beautiful girls in the capital."

Lin Yuyan muttered softly.

Lin Yuyan muttered softly, but Lin Yue'e still heard it clearly, and she no longer had any illusions in her heart.

Yan'er is so eager for the Gu family to come and propose marriage!

This silly girl probably really likes Master Gu.

"Yan'er, have you ever told Master Gu that you like him and that you will not marry anyone else but him?"

Lin Yue'e asked seriously.

"Ah! How could I tell this to Master Gu? Besides, I haven't spoken to him alone.

amount……

It seems that the last time I went to the eldest princess's house for a banquet, a few of us girls ran into Master Gu in the garden.

Prince Gu greeted us girls. That was the first time I saw the legendary Prince Gu.

Wow! Mother, you didn't see that Master Gu is really as the rumors say. He is not only extremely handsome and gentle as jade, but also elegant and polite...

After Master Gu walked away, we girls were still staring at his back.

Everyone was saying excitedly: If I want to marry someone, I want to marry someone like Master Gu. If I can’t find someone like Master Gu, I would rather not marry!

Look! Everyone has said this, it’s just a joke and you can’t take it seriously.”

Lin Yuyan spoke excitedly and waved her hands in amusement.
