Malicious Medical Princess of the Marquis House

Negotiations are like a tug of war.

General Pei, who was supposed to make decisive decisions on the battlefield and win thousands of miles, had to work as an accountant.

Like a miser, fighting for every penny.

Mr. Dou left the villa, found two real logistics accountants, and began to count the supplies needed by the Northwest Army.

Once the Northwest Army captures Xiliang King City, it will be the day when Marquis Lu becomes king and the day when the court will cut off supplies.

So you must prepare in advance and ask for as much supplies as possible.

Everything is missing and everything is needed.

Not even a piece of cloth can be spared.

The more weapons and medicinal materials, the better.

Order more now and save money later.

On Gu Jiu's side, the unparalleled team of cashiers killed Pei Meng and the others without leaving any behind.

Every penny must be counted, and every penny and penny must be calculated clearly, which is what the accountant has to do.

Pei Meng wanted the lion to ask for things, but Gu Jiu's accountant tried every means to deduct according to the head consumption.

The sound of the abacus in the villa is ringing from morning till night.

Pei Meng and Mr. Dou were a bit overwhelmed.

Mr. Dou left the villa again, and found a dozen other accountants to fight.

Gu Jiu settled down leisurely.

She took the children, went to the racecourse for a few days, and then returned to the palace.

Liu Zhao laughed happily when he learned that Pei Meng and Mr. Dou were trapped in the villa.

He took Gu Jiu's hand and said triumphantly, It's better for you. I really want to see Pei Meng's burnt-out state with my own eyes.

Gu Jiu reminded him, Don't go too far in being a human being, be careful not to piss him off.

I can't die of anger! His fate is very hard. Liu Zhao said triumphantly.

Gu Jiu pursed her lips and smiled, What are you going to do with the Pei family?

Liu Zhao said: According to the regulations, the Pei family has to stay in the capital. But since we want to use Lu Hou and his son to expand the territory of the Great Zhou, I am willing to show a little sincerity. Lu Hou and his son can take the family away. But the Pei clan ,

For example, several of my uncles and family members have to stay in the capital.

Gu Jiu said softly: It doesn't make any difference to Lu Hou and his son whether the Pei clan stays or not. They are hard-hearted people, and they have already prepared for the clan to be exterminated. Of course, let them take the family away, At any rate, it also demonstrates the kindness and generosity of the imperial court towards its own people.

Liu Zhao said solemnly: I need you to talk to Mrs. Lu Hou in advance.

Gu Jiu raised her eyebrows, I'll come to talk? She's your aunt, why don't you come out?

Liu Zhao frowned, and remained silent for a while before saying: When I was young, Mrs. Lu Hou was kind to me. There are some things that I can't say.

Gu Jiu understood, But I have never seen you go to Luhou's mansion, nor have I seen you show any kindness to Mrs. Luhou.

Some kindness, I will always remember it in my heart.

Keep it in my heart and never forget it.

Although there is no contact on weekdays, when necessary, he will repay this kindness.

He Liu Zhao is by no means an ungrateful person.

Gu Jiu responded, I will talk to Mrs. Lu Hou.

...

Mrs. Luhou was really surprised when she received Queen Gu's post.

She was a little flustered.

It's finally here.

Just in time for Pei Man to return to her mother's house to be a guest, she also became nervous when she learned that Queen Gu had posted a post to invite her mother to a banquet alone.

Mother, will your daughter enter the palace with you?

Ridiculous! You treat the palace as a market, so you can go there whenever you want?

Daughter go back and beg Gu Ting...

Don't go! Mrs. Lu Hou stopped Pei Man's waywardness, Mother knows you are worried, but the empress is always kind, so it should be fine to enter the palace this time.

But the eldest brother has disappeared for several days, and no one knows where the eldest brother is. What if the eldest brother has been...

Don't think about it! Mr. Dou has been back twice, and although he hasn't revealed anything, I'm sure your elder brother is fine.

Why is mother so sure that elder brother is fine?

Mrs. Luhou smiled, Half of the Jinwu guards outside have withdrawn, and I think things have turned around.

ah?

It was the first time that Pei Man knew that there were Jinwu guards outside Luhou's mansion all the time.

She burst into tears, feeling deeply terrified.

My mother was about to die and was about to be sent to prison. Why didn't my mother reveal a word about such a big matter before?

Tell you, it's just to make you worry for nothing. Nothing happened now, and the turmoil will pass soon. So, you don't have to worry. Don't tell Gu Ting about this, don't let him be in a dilemma.

Fearing that Pei Man would get into the wrong place, Mrs. Lu Hou had to remind her, You still have to think about the three children. For the sake of the children, you have to hide it from Gu Ting, and don't let him run for the Pei family. If it hurts him and the empress The brother-sister relationship between the children will also suffer, can you bear it?

Pei Man shook her head again and again, feeling the pain in her heart.

On one side is her natal family, the biological mother who gave birth to her and raised her, and on the other side is her husband and children. She was caught in the middle, wishing she could die.

Mom, what can I do?

Don't do anything, and supervise Gu Ting to complete the homework assigned by the empress. Your wealth, the wealth of your children, is still waiting for you.

Pei Man didn't know why.

Mrs. Lu Hou caressed her cheek, Silly girl!

Pei Man was crying, squatting on the ground, looking up at Mrs. Lu Hou, My daughter is really stupid!

Stupid people are blessed with stupidity! Mrs. Luhou laughed.

The palace has been reluctant to issue a decree to confer titles on the Gu family to their relatives, it is clearly waiting, waiting for the right time is also waiting for the right person.

In the capital, many people have seen through this point.

Only Mr. Gu, Queen Gu's biological father, couldn't see through it. He jumped up and down all day long, making a lot of jokes.

Pingnan Hou Gu's family must have understood what the palace meant, but they couldn't tell Master Gu the truth. Afraid of provoking Mr. Gu, he would do even crazier things.

Mrs. Luhou is a woman who understands politics. She has seen through everything a long time ago, so she can't say the same.

She implicitly reminded Pei Man, Wait patiently, there will be results soon.

Pei Man wiped away her tears, Why don't you ask Eldest Sister for help.

Pei Yun married into the Wei family of the Duke of Zhu's mansion. The Duke of Zhu's mansion is full of loyal families, and he and the Gu family are also in-laws, so there must be a way.

Your elder sister is keeping a filial piety, don't bother her.

Last year, the ancestor of Duke Zhu's mansion passed away, and Pei Yun, as the eldest grandson's daughter-in-law and the wife of the clan, had to observe filial piety.

Calculating the time, there is still half a year to be filial piety.

Because Pei Yun was in her filial piety, after Pei Man returned to Beijing, she didn't dare to bother her at home, and only sent someone to give her a gift.

But it's about the lives of the whole family, how can we pay so much attention at this time. Pei Man was anxious.

Mrs. Luhou smiled, I've said it all, things have turned around, and the result won't be as bad as you thought?

Pei Man asked nervously, Really?

Most of the Jinwu guards outside the gate have withdrawn, so it is true.

Then, then I will stay here until my mother returns from the palace.

No! You are the daughter-in-law of the Gu family, you have to go back home.

But I'm worried about mother.

If there is news, mother will send someone to inform you.

Mrs. Lu Hou sent Pei Man away by force.

Pei Man kept crying and crying until she got home and stopped crying.

Fearing that Gu Ting would see something strange, she hid in the room and did not show her face. On the pretext of being unwell, Gu Ting was sent to the study to rest.

...

Mrs. Lu Hou put on the court dress and went to the palace to meet the appointment.

She only brought two little maids with her.

Entering the palace this time is unpredictable.

She is not afraid of death, she just wants to save the lives of her grandchildren and give them some way out.

As for Marquis Lu, his eldest son Pei Meng, and several other sons, she was already unable to take care of them.

Madam, please! Your Majesty is waiting for Madam in the side hall of Xingqing Palace!

How dare you wait for your wife, I will punish my wife with death!

Ma'am, it doesn't have to be like this!

The palace people invited Mrs. Lu Hou to settle in the side hall.

A moment later, Gu Jiu appeared in the side hall with the palace servants.

The minister's wife pays homage to the empress, the empress is happy and auspicious!

Ma'am, you're welcome! Today we don't pay attention to these vain etiquettes, Madam, please be more at ease, just chatting.

The minister obeys the order!

Mrs. Lu Hou is very old, with gray hair and full of air in her speech.

Gu Jiu asked curiously, Is Madam sixty?

Thank you for your concern, Madam, I turned sixty last year.

Last year was an eventful year, and I actually missed my wife's 60th birthday.

The country's affairs are difficult. Last year, the family just got together for a meal, and they didn't make a big deal of it.

Gu Jiu said: It's time to pick a date and hold a birthday banquet for Madam.

Thank you for your kindness! The minister's wife is used to keeping everything simple, so the birthday banquet will be skipped.

Gu Jiu smiled and said: Madam insists, so I won't force you. How is the family? How are the nephews and nieces?

Mrs. Luhou's grandson and granddaughter, it is also appropriate for Gu Jiu to call her nephew and niece.

Mrs. Luhou said hurriedly: Thank you for your concern, everything is fine at home. The boy and girl are also busy studying and practicing martial arts, so they are considered diligent.

I heard that Madam's eldest grandson has been in the army for many years?

Your Majesty is right. The eldest grandson, the second grandson... a total of four grandsons have been trained in the army, and all of them are in the Northwest Army. They only made minor military exploits and were severely taught by his father.

The eldest grandson and second grandson in Luhoufu's population are all Pei Meng's children, born of his original wife.

Does Madam miss them?

The man's ambition is everywhere, and he is determined to serve the court. There is a courtier's wife to take care of him at home, so we must not delay the children's errands and future.

Madam is righteous! Uncle is back in Beijing. Madam, have you talked with Uncle?

I don't know what aspect the empress is referring to?

Gu Jiu suggested with a smile, For example, the future of the Pei family.

Mrs. Lu Hou's heart was beating violently, and she was a little flustered. She lowered her head and said, I haven't talked about it in detail.

Gu Jiu pondered for a while, Now there is an opportunity, Madam will go to the northwest to reunite with Marquis Lu, would you like to?

Mrs. Lu Hou was stunned, unable to react.

How many years?

How many years has she been separated from Lu Hou and his wife?

She could hardly remember what Lu Hou looked like.

Suddenly talking about reunion, she was at a loss.

The minister doesn't understand what the empress means, can the empress express it clearly?

This Palace and His Majesty have some ideas, and want to send Madam to the northwest to reunite with Marquis Lu.

Mrs. Luhou asked blankly what was in her heart, Won't the imperial court kill him?
