County's main favorite wife
Chapter 26 Guess
"Why?" Gu Li asked directly.
"You are the daughter of our Gu family. Although your mother is gone and your father is still alive, how can you recognize another adoptive mother? The eldest princess can take a fancy to you, it is for your face, and it is also for the princess of Feng'an. Don't you You have to take it seriously, these things are all about saving face. You have stayed in the Gu family for a long time, and you will understand when you see the world more. Don't just listen to the eldest princess's polite words and just take it seriously, that's really short-sighted and makes people laugh. "The old lady babbled a lot, nothing more than saying that the eldest princess was only polite, and Gu Li took it seriously, and she was someone who had never seen the world.
Gu Li was not angry when he heard this, he stood up and said, "So, grandma won't allow it?"
The old lady shook her head, "It's not that I don't agree, it's that you shouldn't agree. Girls should be more reserved, and don't ask nobles to ask for a favor after casually giving them a word of grace. That would be too disrespectful. You don't want to if you are fine. Always go out, reputation is the most important thing for a girl, if you always show your face like this, if you lose your reputation, your future marriage will be difficult."
"Marriage?" Gu Li laughed.He really thought that she would be manipulated by them when she returned to Gu's house, but she was thinking about her marriage.
The old lady asked Gu Li to sit beside her, and said earnestly, "Li'er, although you didn't grow up by my side, you are the blood of our Gu family. How can a grandmother not feel sorry for you? You are seventeen this year, so don't look for me anymore. A well-matched family says marriage, but you are getting old. Grandma is thinking about you. Our family has a high threshold, and you are the eldest daughter. You must choose carefully. Don't worry, your grandma decides your marriage. I will marry you out of nowhere."
After hearing these words, the ordinary woman must be very grateful.The old lady was also ready to be moved by Gu Li, she even thought about what to say to comfort Gu Li later.Unexpectedly, Gu Li smiled and said, "Thank you grandma for your kindness. But the granddaughter has no intention of marrying yet, so grandma doesn't need to worry about it."
"You child." The old lady had a doting look on her face. "How old are you? I know you are thin-skinned, and it's embarrassing to bring up such things. There are no outsiders here with my grandmother, so what are you embarrassed to say? With your good looks and our Gu family's family background, even if you If you don't enter the palace, you have to marry into a royal family." Gu Li frowned slightly with the old lady's yearning look.
Is this the real purpose of getting yourself back?
"Grandmother, my granddaughter is interested in martial arts, so I don't have any other thoughts. If you have a good candidate, you might as well tell your two younger sisters, they are not young anymore. As for the granddaughter, grandma doesn't have to worry about it." Gu Li didn't want to talk about this topic. Turn around, get up and say goodbye.
As soon as Gu Li left, the old lady threw the teacup on the ground.The fine official kiln porcelain fell to pieces in an instant.Mama Yuan, who was beside the old lady, called the little maid to come over and clean up the broken porcelain pieces, and then sent everyone else out.
"Old madam, please calm down!" Mama Yuan followed the old madam since she was a child, and has been serving her personally for many years, so she understands the old madam's thoughts best.
"Look at that girl! I've run out of good things to say, but she won't take hard and soft words! And why don't you marry me? If you don't marry me, what do I want her to do as a wild girl? If you don't marry me, how will our Gu family explain to King Rui?" The old lady was very angry, and now she was panting heavily. "She also said that she wanted to recognize the eldest princess as a foster mother. She looked at me and didn't understand her little thoughts. After recognizing the eldest princess, the Gu family can no longer control her. In the past, I only thought of this girl as an outspoken girl. It's not easy." The old lady blushed with anger.
"Old madam, look at you. You're too old to be angry. No matter how powerful Miss Li is, she's just a lonely little girl. No matter how much the eldest princess loves her, she's not good enough. There's nothing at your mercy It's easy? If you tell her about your marriage, how dare she refuse? A charge of unfilial piety will destroy her for the rest of her life. Which young lady dares to bear such a charge? Do you think it makes sense?" Mama Yuan As expected of the old mother who has been with the old lady for decades, she doesn't leave anyone alive when she speaks.
The old lady was silent and did not speak. After a while, she ordered: "Go and see when the old man will come back. I have something to look for him."
Gu Li returned to his own Qingxueyuan, and saw Qiuyue talking to Li's mother as soon as he entered the yard.Seeing Gu Li coming back, the two immediately stopped talking and came over to greet her.
Gu Li nodded.As usual, they don't need anyone to wait in front of them, so they were sent back to their room.Gu Li entered his room, and Jiang Mi who followed behind said, "Miss, it's time to change your arm's dressing."
Gu Li sat at the table and put his right arm on the table.Let Jiangmi undo the bandage on his arm, the wound under the gauze is still hideous, Jiangmi couldn't bear to see it. "Miss, if you feel pain, just call out, and this servant should be as gentle as possible."
The scald was because he was in a hurry to take Qin Qi back to the eldest princess's mansion and did not apply the ointment in time.Later, it was completely stuck to the clothes, and Qin Xi wriggled restlessly in the carriage, so the whole piece of skin was rubbed off by the clothes.
Jiang Mi carefully applied the medicine prepared by the imperial physician, and wrapped it up with a new gauze. "Miss, such a big injury, I'm afraid it will leave a scar."
"If you leave a scar, you will leave a scar, it's not a big deal." Gu Li didn't care much about his appearance.In a place like Feiyejin, to paraphrase the words of her unscrupulous master: "The princess walks everywhere, and there are as many beauties as dogs." She remembered that when the master said this sentence, she was almost hurt by a finger from the head of the courtyard. Fortunately, master's martial arts are high enough.It is extremely dangerous to play lip service in front of the head of the courtyard.
"For a beauty like Miss, if she leaves such a big scar, even God will cry." Jiang Mi said with emotion.
"Just count your sweetness." Gu Li put down his sleeves to cover the layers of gauze on his arms. "It's better not to let Qiqi see my injury."
While packing up her things, Jiang Mi said, "Miss is afraid that the princess will be worried?"
Gu Li shook his head. "I'm most afraid of her crying. A woman's tears are terrible. Crying makes my brain hurt."
"Isn't Miss a woman too?" Jiang Mi wondered.
Gu Li was taken aback, she was a woman.But she seldom cries.She cried before when paying homage to Yao Chuxue, but it was only a little bit.And going back further, she couldn't remember when she cried.My heart is as cold as the ice zhenqi I practiced.
"Miss, the old lady disagrees with you accepting the eldest princess as a foster mother, what are you going to do?" Jiang Mi raised this matter with a worried expression on his face.
"It was originally a matter of necessity. We will report the situation to the eldest princess in a while. Regardless of whether we can have this mother-daughter status, I will record the kindness of the eldest princess to me." Gu Li finished speaking and dismissed Jiang Mi went out.She practiced exercises cross-legged in the room, practicing inner strength and mental methods.During this period of time, she had a great improvement in her internal strength after fighting against the inflammation and poison in Qin Qi's body.But now it seems to have entered a period of bottleneck.I don't know if I can make a breakthrough when Qin Qiyan's poison attacks at the beginning of next month.I don't know how the master practiced the exercise that I practiced, it's really hard to walk every step of the way.If I didn't have the opportunity of Qin Qi, it would be very difficult for me to make breakthroughs in martial arts.
Although he came to Mingxi Country and caused some troubles for no reason, but meeting a cute little rabbit and being able to practice well, it is considered a reward.
In the afternoon, Gu Li took Jiang Mi out to the Princess's mansion.Unexpectedly, he was stopped by the door guard.It is said that it is the order of the old lady, and the young lady of the Gu family is not allowed to go out without permission.
Gu Li knew in his heart that the old lady was embarrassing herself for the morning conversation.Since Ms. Gu's family can't go out, she turned to Jiang Mi and said: "Go and explain to the eldest princess what grandma means. I can't go out here. You can sue the eldest princess for me."
Isn't it just a complaint?Jiang Mi is so clever, he immediately understood.
"Miss, be careful." Jiang Mi warned.As a result, she was also stopped at the gate.Jia Ding still used the same set of words, and it was useless for Jiang Mi to argue with them.
"Come back." Gu Li returned to Qingxueyuan with Jiangmi still on his calm expression.
"Miss, they are going too far!" Jiang Mi said angrily.
"It's just a servant, obeying orders, there is nothing to blame." Gu Li poured himself a cup of tea, took a sip and said, "Since the Gu family won't let me go out, I just don't go out."
Seeing Gu Li's indifferent look, Jiang Mi found it strange.After these days of observation, her young lady is not a submissive temperament.So honest, do you have any other plans?Thinking about it this way, Jiang Mi understood.Gu Li can't get out, someone can come in.
Sure enough, in the evening, Qin Qi came to the door.Li's mother in Qingxueyuan claimed that Gu Li was unwell and had already fallen asleep, and originally wanted Qin Qi to go back.Unexpectedly, when Qin Qi heard that Gu Li was unwell, he insisted on going into the courtyard to see Gu Li.Mother Li bit the bullet and stopped, but was reprimanded by Rice.Xiaomi then escorted Qin Qi into Gu Li's room.
Gu Li is sitting on the table by the window watching the good show outside.Seeing Qin Qi coming in, he smiled and said, "Qiqi is so majestic."
Qin Qi came in and saw that Gu Li was fine, and asked strangely, "Sister Li, didn't you feel unwell and fell asleep?"
"That's what they said." Gu Li jumped down from the table, his movements were light, his clothes fluttered, Qin Xi's eyes straightened again.
"You're still here at this late hour." Gu Li signaled Qin Qi to sit down.
Only then did Qin Qi come back to his senses, and wiped the drool from his mouth, um, don't look too ugly. "You said to go home and ask what the Gu family meant, but I waited for you all day and didn't see you, so I came to see you." She frowned, already feeling that things had changed. "Does the Gu family disagree?"
Gu Li nodded. "Grandma doesn't agree. She still wants me to marry."
Qin Qi bit her lip, "Sister Li wants to marry?" Her big eyes were full of grievances.
Gu Li's bad intentions rose again, "I am seventeen this year, and I have reached the age to marry. My grandmother said that even if I don't send me to the palace, I will be a prince's family. Such a good family background is I didn't even dare to think about it before." She said with a look of longing.
"Sister Li." Qin Qi got up and walked in front of Gu Li, looking like he was about to cry because of his grievance. "Aren't you going to stop Qiqi?"
Gu Li frowned, she just wanted to tease the rabbit, not make the rabbit cry. "Qiqi..."
Qin Qi suddenly hugged Gu Li's neck, threw himself into Gu Li's arms and cried "Wow".Gu Li shivered in fright.what's the situation?
"Sister Li, don't you want to marry, okay? Let Xiqi stay with you, okay? Qiqi is very obedient." Qin Qi's tears and snot flowed down his cheeks to the back of Gu Li's neck.At this moment, Gu Li's heart was broken.
She reached out and grabbed Qin Qi, who was crying so hard, from his body, and pressed him onto the chair.He reached out and pinched Qin Xi's chin, forcing the little rabbit to look at him.He paused every word: "Listen well, I lied to you."
ha?Liar?
Qin Qi's small face wrinkled, and he continued to cry: "How can Sister Li bully Qi Qi like this? Sister Li is a bad person!" How could she be deceived by marrying someone?
Who knew you would cry like this when you got married?Gu Li's head throbbed with pain.She swore that she would never dare to make Qin Qi cry again. "Don't cry anymore and ignore you!"
Uh... Qin Qi's crying stopped immediately.It's just that the tears couldn't stop and kept flowing.Because I suppressed my voice, I cried so hard that I looked so pitiful and pitiful.
"Good boy." Gu Li had no choice but to unleash the big move of masturbation.Sure enough, Qin Qi, whose forehead was stroked, felt Gu Li's tenderness, and gradually stopped crying.
"Qiqi will be good. Sister Li, don't marry, okay?" Qin Qi knew that such a request was too much.She is the most favored princess, but her parents taught her not to use her status and privileges to do excessive things since she was a child.She never considered her status as a reason to order Gu Li not to marry.But...she really didn't want to leave Gu Li.Just let yourself be willful this time.Let yourself be unreasonable this time.Qin Qi thought silently in his heart.If God is willing to help her, she is willing to suffer from inflammation and poison for life after life.
Seeing Qin Qi who was trying so hard to be cute under his own palm, not even daring to move, Gu Li was really helpless. "Qiqi, I won't marry."
"Really?" Qin Qi carefully concealed her excitement, but the light in her eyes gave everything away.
Gu Li nodded amusedly. "When I was growing up, I always dreamed of becoming a master of martial arts like my master. Once a woman gets married, she must be burdened by mundane affairs. I don't want to live that kind of life." What Gu Li didn't say was that her appearance In China, most people in the world admire her appearance, rather than Gu Li himself.The face will eventually grow old, so what will happen then?With the lessons learned from her mother Yao Chuxue, she had no confidence in men.Maybe she will eventually meet someone who is not confused by her appearance, but she has no patience to find someone in such a huge crowd.For her, it is more suitable for her to live a life like a wild crane like her master Jiang Fengmin.
The corners of Qin Qi's mouth curled up unconsciously.If Gu Li doesn't get married, she can always stay by Gu Li's side.
"But Qiqi, what kind of feelings do you have for me?" Although Gu Li was cold, he was not totally ignorant.If Qin Qi's previous intimacy with her can still be understood as sisterhood, then how to explain this "don't marry" request?
"I, I, I..." Qin Qi stuttered nervously again.
Gu Li didn't speak, and waited for Qin Qi to figure it out.She felt it was her responsibility to let Qin Qi understand what the relationship between the two of them meant.In short, we can no longer get along with each other in such a muddled manner.Qin Qi is naive and doesn't understand, she is not young.This kind of thing is not clear, he is just taking advantage of Qin Qi's feelings.
"I just want to be by Sister Li's side." Qin Qi pointed at her finger with a guilty expression on his face.
"Is that true? In fact, even after I get married, you can still visit me, or even stay at my house for a long time." Gu Li continued to press.
"That's different!" The little rabbit was anxious.
Gu Li raised his eyebrows, "Why is it different?"
"Sister Li is mine!" Qin Qi pouted.Gu Li can only belong to her alone, so don't share it with others.
Silence, the room was silent for a long time before Gu Li asked, "So?"
"So..." Qin Qi raised his head with a blank face, "So sister Li, don't get married."
Gu Li held his forehead dejectedly.It seemed that Qin Qi really didn't understand. "Okay. We'll talk about this later. I can't go out without my grandmother's order. You go back and tell the eldest princess that my grandmother doesn't allow me to recognize my relatives, so I can only thank the eldest princess for her kindness."
Qin Qi blinked his big eyes, as if trying to digest this passage.After she understood it thoroughly, she stood up "huo", "My mother wants to adopt you as a foster daughter, as long as you agree. Only the emperor's uncle can stop this matter. Sister Li, you have to tell the Gu family that it is you who treat the Gu family. respect. The Princess's Mansion doesn't give the Gu family such a big face."
This time it was Gu Li's turn to take time to digest.She looked at the arrogance on Qin Qi's face in surprise, and it turned out that this was the appearance of Princess Feng'an when she showed her majesty.What happened to the rabbit I saw?
"Sister Li, don't worry, I'll take care of this matter. With me here, the Gu family can't do anything for you." Sure enough, after a moment of prestige, Qin Qi put on a fawning smile again.
Gu Li lost his temper by the little rabbit's face-changing.He called Jiangmi to fetch water and came in to wash Qin Qi's face.Qin Qi drove away Mi Xiaomi who came in to serve her, and acted like a baby and asked Gu Li to wash her face.Gu Li just made the little rabbit cry, now he felt guilty, twisted a cloth towel and wiped Qin Qi's cheek.Qin Qi hugged Gu Li's waist with both hands, but he didn't let go.
"Stop making trouble." After washing his face, Gu Li stretched out his hand again to grab Qin Qi off his body and carried him to the bed. "Sit down."
"Oh." Qin Qi had enough, and sat down obediently.Gu Li grabbed her wrist and lost a little bit of cold energy.Then I saw Qin Qi squinting comfortably.
"Don't sleep." Gu Li stretched out his hand to hold her head to prevent her from falling asleep.
"I want to sleep with sister Li." Qin Qi flattered her.
"No." Gu Li didn't want to refuse.
"Why?" Qin Qi was aggrieved.
Gu Li searched for reasons in his head with a headache, and suddenly thought of one, "You still have to send a message to the eldest princess for me."
"That's right." Qin Qi was so coaxing that he believed it right away.
Gu Li withdrew his internal energy, called Da Mi Xiaomi in and took Qin Qi away.Qin Qi reluctantly left.Going to the door, he smiled and said, "Sister Li, I still have to come tomorrow."
Jiang Mi at the door saw the helplessness on Gu Li's face, besides... Is it pampering?
Qin Qi's smile disappeared when he left Qingxueyuan.She was walking on the gravel road of Gu's mansion, and she saw Gu Xuan walking towards her.Qin Qi walked up to Gu Xuan, "Second Miss Gu, where are you going?"
Seeing Qin Qi, Gu Xuan hurriedly saluted. "Master Feng'an, I specially cooked lily and lotus seed porridge and wanted to send it to my grandmother."
"Lily lotus seed porridge, can I have a look?" Qin Qi smiled innocently.
Gu Xuan couldn't refuse, so she asked the maid behind her to bring over the food box containing lily and lotus seed porridge.Gu Xuan opened the food box herself, and a scent of lilies wafted out.
"Delicious porridge!" Qin Qi reached out to get it. "It's so hot!" As soon as she took the bowl out of the food box, she shrank her hands because she thought it was too hot, and spilled all the porridge on the front of Gu Xuan's clothes.
"Ah!" Gu Xuan exclaimed.The porridge was just cooked and brought directly from the kitchen, and it was boiling hot now.It was summer now, and the ladies were all wearing thin clothes, and suddenly her chest was burned a lot. "Princess, you..." Gu Xuan pointed at Qin Qi, but dared not say what was on her lips.
Qin Qi smiled and said, "I'm really sorry, Miss Gu. I didn't expect the porridge to be so hot. It was my fault. I'll apologize for delaying Miss Gu's filial piety." Qin Qi really slightly lean.
How dare Gu Xuan ask Princess Feng'an to pay for it?Quickly dodged to avoid the past. "It's okay, it's okay! Princess, please forgive me for being rude, I'll go back to my room and change my clothes first." Gu Xuan's chest was burning hot, and she couldn't care about getting angry with Qin Qi right now, so she hurried back to her yard.
Seeing that everyone had gone far away, Qin Qi continued to walk outside.When she walked out of the gate of the Gu family, she looked at the lintel of the Gu family and sneered, "Go home."
Princess Palace.
As soon as Qin Qi returned to the mansion, he went to see the eldest princess.Qin Wenbo was also there at this time, and the couple smiled when they saw their daughter coming back.However, when he walked in, he saw his daughter's face was full of displeasure. The husband and wife looked at each other, and the eldest princess said, "Qiqi, what's wrong with you?"
"Mother!" Qin Qi threw herself into the arms of the eldest princess, "The Gu family forbids Sister Li to be your adopted daughter, and even locks Sister Li in Qingxueyuan, preventing her from leaving the house."
The eldest princess frowned upon hearing this.The anger in my heart also rushed up. "This is what your sister Li said."
Qin Qi sat up from the eldest princess' arms, nodded and said: "Sister Li told me personally. Sister Li also said that Mrs. Gu wanted her to marry. Mother, Sister Li said she didn't want to marry. Mother, you Can you save Sister Li? Sister Li is so pitiful." Qin Qi burst into tears as he spoke.
Now the eldest princess is really distressed.My own daughter, every time when the inflammation flares up, she is so sad that she endures it desperately, and she is covered in cold sweat without ever shedding tears.How many times have you cried because of Gu Li?Every tear of the daughter was like a knife piercing the eldest princess' heart.She stood up and said, "Qiqi, my mother will go into the palace to find your emperor's uncle. Mother wants to see, my dignified princess wants to adopt a righteous daughter, who dares to stop her?"
Qin Qi nodded immediately.
Qin Wenbo was the calmest.My wife and daughter usually look magnanimous, but they are actually protecting their weaknesses. No matter who touches the person they love, it will not end well.He grabbed his wife and said, "It's already late today, and it will be tomorrow if you want to enter the palace." He turned to his daughter again and said, "Qiqi, it's getting late, you go back to rest first. Parents will take care of this matter." Sure, I will not let your sister Li be wronged."
"Yeah." Qin Qi bowed obediently and left.Even her father has talked about this matter, so there must be no problem.In Qin Qi's eyes, Qin Wenbo is the most intelligent person.No matter how difficult it is, as long as Qin Wenbo is willing to help, it will be solved.On the surface, Qin Wenbo cannot be an official as a son-in-law.In fact, Qin Wenbo helps his eldest brother Qin Wenyuan, who is the left prime minister, to deal with political affairs every day.And this point was acquiesced by Emperor Zhengyun.
"The Gu family is really a famous family, and they don't even look down on me, the eldest princess." After Qin Qi left, the eldest princess was still angry.
Qin Wenbo smiled and said, "Why should the princess be angry? I'm afraid this matter is not simple."
The eldest princess raised her head upon hearing the words, "What does the son-in-law mean?"
Qin Wenbo pulled his wife to sit on the bed, "The Gu family has been an official in the court for many years, and it is impossible not to understand the situation in the court. Princess, you are favored, and we are favored, this is well known throughout the country. The Gu family Why bother to offend the eldest princess's mansion because of Gu Li? Besides, it is a good thing for the Gu family that Gu Li gets involved in the eldest princess's mansion."
The eldest princess nodded, "Since it's a good thing for the Gu family, why doesn't the Gu family agree?"
Qin Wenbo looked at his wife with a smile. "Yeah, why don't you agree?"
The eldest princess has been in the harem for many years, and she is also a person who is used to tricks.After thinking for a while, he guessed: "Unless there is another matter that brings greater benefits to the Gu family. And that matter conflicts with my taking Gu Li as a foster daughter. That's why the Gu family gave up on my side."
"The princess is really smart."
To get a compliment from her husband, the eldest princess blushed. "So, the Gu family has bigger plans."
"In the final analysis, this matter is related to Gu Li." Qin Wenbo analyzed: "It's strange that the Gu family must insist on Gu Li's recognition of their ancestors and return to their ancestors. It seems that they already had a complete plan at that time."
The eldest princess leaned her body against her husband, "What's the plan?"
"Gu Li's face..." Qin Wenbo raised a point.
The eldest princess understood immediately. "Where can I find such a beauty? Didn't Xiqi just say that Mrs. Gu plans to let Gu Li marry? It seems that the candidate has been decided early in the morning. Is this trying to test Gu Li's reaction?"
"What the princess said is very true." Seeing that his wife had figured it out, Qin Wenbo stopped reminding her.
"Speaking of which, I really want to ask Brother Huang to decide this matter." At this point, the eldest princess sighed, and looked up at her husband, "I think Qi Qi is genuinely moved by Gu Li. Whether she can accept Qiqi in the future, she has always saved Qiqi's people several times. Since she doesn't want to marry herself, I can't let the Gu family treat her as a pawn in marriage. With the status of stepmother, in the future Gu Li's marriage, I can speak in a legitimate way." Thinking of her daughter being loved by her and her husband, and thinking of Gu Li's mother passing away early, and her father's wholehearted desire to exchange her for glory and wealth, she felt very depressed. "Gu Li is also a hard-working girl. I thought that after recognizing my ancestors and returning to the clan, I would get some love from my relatives, but I didn't expect... Sigh!"
Qin Wenbo hugged his wife tightly, and comforted her softly: "Since the princess loves her dearly, it's good to love her more after recognizing her adopted daughter. Qiqi also likes her, the more you dote on her, the happier she will be. Qiqi is happy If so, the entire An Guo Gong Mansion will be happy."
The Gu family, Hua Rongzhai.
One of the elders, Gu Haozhi, was invited to the old lady when he returned home. "Mom, you are looking for me."
"Today Gu Li came and said that the Eldest Princess wants to take her as a foster daughter, what do you think?" the old lady asked.
Gu Haozhi frowned, "In this case, it will be difficult for us to make decisions about her marriage."
"I think so too. So I don't allow her to recognize this relative. But although I can control Gu Li, I can't control the eldest princess. The eldest princess is very defensive. If she enters the palace and asks for the emperor's grace, our Gu family will not be able to control her." You can't disobey the emperor's order." The old lady thought of many things.
"Mother, we can't afford to offend the eldest princess. What if we ask Gu Li to recognize this relative? Although we tell Gu Li that the eldest princess will definitely participate in the future, we don't mean to push Gu Li into the fire pit and marry him. King Rui is worthy of her as a side concubine. My son thinks that the eldest princess may not stop her." Gu Haozhi felt that he did not treat his daughter badly.
The old lady sneered, "If you told me these words yesterday, I would have believed them. But today Gu Li told me clearly that she doesn't marry. Listen, what is she talking about? Good daughter Home, how can there be someone who doesn’t marry?”
Gu Haozhi thought that Gu Li might be very resistant to the marriage arranged by the Gu family, but he never thought about not getting married.With Gu Li's good looks and the Gu family's high family background, even if he entered the palace and became a favor, he would have no problem at all.How can anyone choose to die alone with such good conditions?
"Maybe... Gu Li is afraid that we will marry her at will." Gu Haozhi suddenly remembered something, "She went to Princess Rui's birthday banquet the day before yesterday, did she see King Rui?"
The old lady recalled it carefully, "I heard from Yin'er that she never saw her. She and Princess Feng'an didn't attend the banquet at all."
Gu Haozhi laughed and said, "Mother, when Gu Li meets Queen Rui, he will naturally agree to this marriage. How can there be anything to choose with a character and appearance like King Rui?"
The old lady nodded. "I hope so. Boss, you have to know about this matter. What I mean is to do it as soon as possible. To avoid long nights and dreams."
"My son understands."
Qin Qi is the barometer of the entire Anguo government.When she is happy, An Guogong's mansion is happy.She was not happy that no one in An Guogong's mansion dared to laugh out loud.Qin Qi got up every day to greet his parents, and then went to the next door to An Guogong's mansion to greet his grandfather and grandmother.I have to say hello to my uncle and aunt.Of course, everyone felt that this series of greetings was too hard, so they specially asked her to come to greet her if she had nothing to do, and not to come if she had something to do.
Qin Qi got up very early today.Go to the front yard first to greet your parents.After eating together, they entered Anguo Gong's mansion through the corner gate.
An Guogong Mansion, Qinghui Hall.
When Gu Li came in, Mrs. Guo had just had breakfast, and when she saw Qin Qi coming in, please An immediately asked her to come and sit down. "Qiqi, come to grandma quickly."
"Grandmother." Qin Qi was obedient, sitting next to Mrs. Guogong, looked at the forehead wiped on Mrs. Guogong's head and said, "Grandmother, this forehead wipe is really beautiful. Is it the handicraft of sister Zigui?"
Mrs. Guogong smiled and said, "You still have sharp eyes. You brought this gemstone, and it was polished just before. Zigui stayed up all night to make this forehead wipe for me. I wear it just right."
"Sister Zigui is amazing!" Qin Qi admired a handsome maid standing beside her.
The servant girl named Zigui Wanfu said: "My maidservant, thank you Princess for your compliment."
Qin Qi smiled, "Grandmother, I heard that green plums have come down from the farm in the countryside. Can you leave a basket for Xiqi when they come to the mansion?"
The Duke's wife frowned and said, "Qiqi, green plums are so sour, what do you want them for?"
"Give it away. Qiqi has a friend who likes to eat green plums." Qin Qi smiled with a harmless face.
Mrs. Guo's mouth was sour when she heard this, and she reached out and poked Qin Qi's forehead lightly, "You, you are the most naughty. Qingmei should be shipped in a few days, and then I will ask Zigui to leave a basket for you." You send it."
"Thank you, grandma." Qin Qi hugged Mrs. Guo's arm and rubbed it, making everyone in the room laugh.
After paying his respects, Qin Qi packed up his things, let Rice carry a small burden and went out.When the eldest princess heard that Qin Qi was going out with a burden, she shook her head and said, "What is this girl going to do again? Forget it, let her go. With Gu Li around, nothing can happen." Subconsciously, the eldest princess Gu Li's ability to protect Qin Qi has been recognized.
Gu family, listen to Yuxuan.
This is the yard of the second miss, Gu Xuan.Yesterday Gu Xuan was splashed with a bowl of hot porridge by Qin Qi, and when she came back and took off her clothes, there were large blisters on her chest, which made her cry.The eldest lady Wu Siran was surprised when she came to see the news.
"Princess Feng'an is too ruthless!" How can my daughter not feel distressed?Wu Siran was born in the Marquis of Wuning, an honorable family, and the lady has a very bad temper. "Our Gu family is a famous family anyway, why does she harm you like this? No, I have to go to the eldest princess's mansion to ask. Even if she is favored again, she can't act like this." Wu Siran watched the servant girl apply good ointment to Gu Xuan, I will go to the princess' mansion to discuss.
"Mother!" Gu Xuan understood the reason of the matter in her heart, and held Wu Siran tightly. "Forget it, mother, she is the princess of Feng'an! If you go there, you won't be able to get anything good, so it's unlucky to be a daughter."
Wu Siran looked at Gu Xuan grinning in pain and trying not to cause trouble, and said distressedly: "My Xuan'er, you are so sensible. This matter can't be finished, sooner or later my mother will ask you to pay back the debt Come."
After Wu Siran left, Gu Yin came to see her sister.Only the two sisters knew about the affairs of Prince Rui's Mansion the day before yesterday.At this moment, Gu Yin looked at Gu Xuan's appearance of enduring the pain, and said distressedly: "Xuan'er, I didn't expect Princess Feng'an to be so bold as to do something blatantly in Gu's house."
Gu Xuan smiled wryly. "Eldest sister, she is the princess of Feng'an County, what can she do? Although I am having a hard time, we didn't let Gu Li show his face in front of King Rui after all. You and I both know that there are not many men who can't resist Gu Li's face." Attracted. What if King Rui takes a fancy to it, what will you do?"
The handkerchief in Gu Yin's hand was twisted tightly. "Why should she seduce King Rui?"
"Elder Sister." Gu Xuan looked at the room again and saw that there was no one else, so she said in a low voice: "Since you like King Rui, you should make preparations early. I know that Mother is already planning a marriage for us. Once It's too late for you to say anything."
Gu Yin blushed. "This kind of thing...how do you want me to prepare?"
Gu Xuan thought for a while, "I think you might as well tell Niang Ming. Can Niang help you?"
Gu Yin immediately shook her head. "But you must never say that. Our Gu family has the most rules. As a young lady who has not left the cabinet, I will be fined to kneel in the ancestral hall if I say such things."
They are all souls bound by the rules of the Gu family, and they dare not do anything less than that.
The Gu family, Qingxueyuan.
Gu Li got up early to practice boxing in the yard.With her level of martial arts, there is no need to deliberately practice external martial arts.It is more about practicing inner exercises.Practicing boxing and kicking every morning is just to maintain the necessary physical strength and flexibility.
After a set of punches, Jiang Mi sent over a handkerchief.Gu Li wiped the sweat off his face, took a shower and changed his clothes, and went to pay his respects to the old lady.Yesterday, the old lady forbade her to go out, and even her maids were not allowed to go out, clearly making things difficult.The old lady thought that Gu Li would come to her to reason, but she didn't expect that Gu Li really didn't go out, and went back to her yard to stay quietly.
I came to pay my respects this morning and couldn't see anything unusual.Gu Xuan didn't come today, and Gu Yin's complexion was not very good, she looked at Gu Li with disdain and a hint of fear in her eyes.
"Xuan'er is sick, and Yin'er's complexion is not good. She didn't sleep well yesterday? Miss, don't have so many worries at home, you have lost your good looks." The old lady turned her head and said to Yuan's mother: "Go to my bed later. Take some bird's nests from the small storeroom, and send some to each young lady to refresh her complexion. The daughter of our Gu family has been raised and raised, so we must not be wronged by the cost."
Mama Yuan leaned over and said, "Yes, old lady."
The three sisters of the Gu family and Gu Li all got up and said, "Thank you, grandma."
The old lady waved to the ladies to sit down. "Thank you, they are all my granddaughters, and I deserve to be hurt." Speaking of this, the old lady sighed, "You are all grown up now. Except for Yinger, everyone is already old. It's time to tell you about others. "
The three sisters bowed their heads shyly except for the fourth miss, Gu Ying.Only Gu Li, as if he had never heard of it, just sat there quietly.

"You are the daughter of our Gu family. Although your mother is gone and your father is still alive, how can you recognize another adoptive mother? The eldest princess can take a fancy to you, it is for your face, and it is also for the princess of Feng'an. Don't you You have to take it seriously, these things are all about saving face. You have stayed in the Gu family for a long time, and you will understand when you see the world more. Don't just listen to the eldest princess's polite words and just take it seriously, that's really short-sighted and makes people laugh. "The old lady babbled a lot, nothing more than saying that the eldest princess was only polite, and Gu Li took it seriously, and she was someone who had never seen the world.
Gu Li was not angry when he heard this, he stood up and said, "So, grandma won't allow it?"
The old lady shook her head, "It's not that I don't agree, it's that you shouldn't agree. Girls should be more reserved, and don't ask nobles to ask for a favor after casually giving them a word of grace. That would be too disrespectful. You don't want to if you are fine. Always go out, reputation is the most important thing for a girl, if you always show your face like this, if you lose your reputation, your future marriage will be difficult."
"Marriage?" Gu Li laughed.He really thought that she would be manipulated by them when she returned to Gu's house, but she was thinking about her marriage.
The old lady asked Gu Li to sit beside her, and said earnestly, "Li'er, although you didn't grow up by my side, you are the blood of our Gu family. How can a grandmother not feel sorry for you? You are seventeen this year, so don't look for me anymore. A well-matched family says marriage, but you are getting old. Grandma is thinking about you. Our family has a high threshold, and you are the eldest daughter. You must choose carefully. Don't worry, your grandma decides your marriage. I will marry you out of nowhere."
After hearing these words, the ordinary woman must be very grateful.The old lady was also ready to be moved by Gu Li, she even thought about what to say to comfort Gu Li later.Unexpectedly, Gu Li smiled and said, "Thank you grandma for your kindness. But the granddaughter has no intention of marrying yet, so grandma doesn't need to worry about it."
"You child." The old lady had a doting look on her face. "How old are you? I know you are thin-skinned, and it's embarrassing to bring up such things. There are no outsiders here with my grandmother, so what are you embarrassed to say? With your good looks and our Gu family's family background, even if you If you don't enter the palace, you have to marry into a royal family." Gu Li frowned slightly with the old lady's yearning look.
Is this the real purpose of getting yourself back?
"Grandmother, my granddaughter is interested in martial arts, so I don't have any other thoughts. If you have a good candidate, you might as well tell your two younger sisters, they are not young anymore. As for the granddaughter, grandma doesn't have to worry about it." Gu Li didn't want to talk about this topic. Turn around, get up and say goodbye.
As soon as Gu Li left, the old lady threw the teacup on the ground.The fine official kiln porcelain fell to pieces in an instant.Mama Yuan, who was beside the old lady, called the little maid to come over and clean up the broken porcelain pieces, and then sent everyone else out.
"Old madam, please calm down!" Mama Yuan followed the old madam since she was a child, and has been serving her personally for many years, so she understands the old madam's thoughts best.
"Look at that girl! I've run out of good things to say, but she won't take hard and soft words! And why don't you marry me? If you don't marry me, what do I want her to do as a wild girl? If you don't marry me, how will our Gu family explain to King Rui?" The old lady was very angry, and now she was panting heavily. "She also said that she wanted to recognize the eldest princess as a foster mother. She looked at me and didn't understand her little thoughts. After recognizing the eldest princess, the Gu family can no longer control her. In the past, I only thought of this girl as an outspoken girl. It's not easy." The old lady blushed with anger.
"Old madam, look at you. You're too old to be angry. No matter how powerful Miss Li is, she's just a lonely little girl. No matter how much the eldest princess loves her, she's not good enough. There's nothing at your mercy It's easy? If you tell her about your marriage, how dare she refuse? A charge of unfilial piety will destroy her for the rest of her life. Which young lady dares to bear such a charge? Do you think it makes sense?" Mama Yuan As expected of the old mother who has been with the old lady for decades, she doesn't leave anyone alive when she speaks.
The old lady was silent and did not speak. After a while, she ordered: "Go and see when the old man will come back. I have something to look for him."
Gu Li returned to his own Qingxueyuan, and saw Qiuyue talking to Li's mother as soon as he entered the yard.Seeing Gu Li coming back, the two immediately stopped talking and came over to greet her.
Gu Li nodded.As usual, they don't need anyone to wait in front of them, so they were sent back to their room.Gu Li entered his room, and Jiang Mi who followed behind said, "Miss, it's time to change your arm's dressing."
Gu Li sat at the table and put his right arm on the table.Let Jiangmi undo the bandage on his arm, the wound under the gauze is still hideous, Jiangmi couldn't bear to see it. "Miss, if you feel pain, just call out, and this servant should be as gentle as possible."
The scald was because he was in a hurry to take Qin Qi back to the eldest princess's mansion and did not apply the ointment in time.Later, it was completely stuck to the clothes, and Qin Xi wriggled restlessly in the carriage, so the whole piece of skin was rubbed off by the clothes.
Jiang Mi carefully applied the medicine prepared by the imperial physician, and wrapped it up with a new gauze. "Miss, such a big injury, I'm afraid it will leave a scar."
"If you leave a scar, you will leave a scar, it's not a big deal." Gu Li didn't care much about his appearance.In a place like Feiyejin, to paraphrase the words of her unscrupulous master: "The princess walks everywhere, and there are as many beauties as dogs." She remembered that when the master said this sentence, she was almost hurt by a finger from the head of the courtyard. Fortunately, master's martial arts are high enough.It is extremely dangerous to play lip service in front of the head of the courtyard.
"For a beauty like Miss, if she leaves such a big scar, even God will cry." Jiang Mi said with emotion.
"Just count your sweetness." Gu Li put down his sleeves to cover the layers of gauze on his arms. "It's better not to let Qiqi see my injury."
While packing up her things, Jiang Mi said, "Miss is afraid that the princess will be worried?"
Gu Li shook his head. "I'm most afraid of her crying. A woman's tears are terrible. Crying makes my brain hurt."
"Isn't Miss a woman too?" Jiang Mi wondered.
Gu Li was taken aback, she was a woman.But she seldom cries.She cried before when paying homage to Yao Chuxue, but it was only a little bit.And going back further, she couldn't remember when she cried.My heart is as cold as the ice zhenqi I practiced.
"Miss, the old lady disagrees with you accepting the eldest princess as a foster mother, what are you going to do?" Jiang Mi raised this matter with a worried expression on his face.
"It was originally a matter of necessity. We will report the situation to the eldest princess in a while. Regardless of whether we can have this mother-daughter status, I will record the kindness of the eldest princess to me." Gu Li finished speaking and dismissed Jiang Mi went out.She practiced exercises cross-legged in the room, practicing inner strength and mental methods.During this period of time, she had a great improvement in her internal strength after fighting against the inflammation and poison in Qin Qi's body.But now it seems to have entered a period of bottleneck.I don't know if I can make a breakthrough when Qin Qiyan's poison attacks at the beginning of next month.I don't know how the master practiced the exercise that I practiced, it's really hard to walk every step of the way.If I didn't have the opportunity of Qin Qi, it would be very difficult for me to make breakthroughs in martial arts.
Although he came to Mingxi Country and caused some troubles for no reason, but meeting a cute little rabbit and being able to practice well, it is considered a reward.
In the afternoon, Gu Li took Jiang Mi out to the Princess's mansion.Unexpectedly, he was stopped by the door guard.It is said that it is the order of the old lady, and the young lady of the Gu family is not allowed to go out without permission.
Gu Li knew in his heart that the old lady was embarrassing herself for the morning conversation.Since Ms. Gu's family can't go out, she turned to Jiang Mi and said: "Go and explain to the eldest princess what grandma means. I can't go out here. You can sue the eldest princess for me."
Isn't it just a complaint?Jiang Mi is so clever, he immediately understood.
"Miss, be careful." Jiang Mi warned.As a result, she was also stopped at the gate.Jia Ding still used the same set of words, and it was useless for Jiang Mi to argue with them.
"Come back." Gu Li returned to Qingxueyuan with Jiangmi still on his calm expression.
"Miss, they are going too far!" Jiang Mi said angrily.
"It's just a servant, obeying orders, there is nothing to blame." Gu Li poured himself a cup of tea, took a sip and said, "Since the Gu family won't let me go out, I just don't go out."
Seeing Gu Li's indifferent look, Jiang Mi found it strange.After these days of observation, her young lady is not a submissive temperament.So honest, do you have any other plans?Thinking about it this way, Jiang Mi understood.Gu Li can't get out, someone can come in.
Sure enough, in the evening, Qin Qi came to the door.Li's mother in Qingxueyuan claimed that Gu Li was unwell and had already fallen asleep, and originally wanted Qin Qi to go back.Unexpectedly, when Qin Qi heard that Gu Li was unwell, he insisted on going into the courtyard to see Gu Li.Mother Li bit the bullet and stopped, but was reprimanded by Rice.Xiaomi then escorted Qin Qi into Gu Li's room.
Gu Li is sitting on the table by the window watching the good show outside.Seeing Qin Qi coming in, he smiled and said, "Qiqi is so majestic."
Qin Qi came in and saw that Gu Li was fine, and asked strangely, "Sister Li, didn't you feel unwell and fell asleep?"
"That's what they said." Gu Li jumped down from the table, his movements were light, his clothes fluttered, Qin Xi's eyes straightened again.
"You're still here at this late hour." Gu Li signaled Qin Qi to sit down.
Only then did Qin Qi come back to his senses, and wiped the drool from his mouth, um, don't look too ugly. "You said to go home and ask what the Gu family meant, but I waited for you all day and didn't see you, so I came to see you." She frowned, already feeling that things had changed. "Does the Gu family disagree?"
Gu Li nodded. "Grandma doesn't agree. She still wants me to marry."
Qin Qi bit her lip, "Sister Li wants to marry?" Her big eyes were full of grievances.
Gu Li's bad intentions rose again, "I am seventeen this year, and I have reached the age to marry. My grandmother said that even if I don't send me to the palace, I will be a prince's family. Such a good family background is I didn't even dare to think about it before." She said with a look of longing.
"Sister Li." Qin Qi got up and walked in front of Gu Li, looking like he was about to cry because of his grievance. "Aren't you going to stop Qiqi?"
Gu Li frowned, she just wanted to tease the rabbit, not make the rabbit cry. "Qiqi..."
Qin Qi suddenly hugged Gu Li's neck, threw himself into Gu Li's arms and cried "Wow".Gu Li shivered in fright.what's the situation?
"Sister Li, don't you want to marry, okay? Let Xiqi stay with you, okay? Qiqi is very obedient." Qin Qi's tears and snot flowed down his cheeks to the back of Gu Li's neck.At this moment, Gu Li's heart was broken.
She reached out and grabbed Qin Qi, who was crying so hard, from his body, and pressed him onto the chair.He reached out and pinched Qin Xi's chin, forcing the little rabbit to look at him.He paused every word: "Listen well, I lied to you."
ha?Liar?
Qin Qi's small face wrinkled, and he continued to cry: "How can Sister Li bully Qi Qi like this? Sister Li is a bad person!" How could she be deceived by marrying someone?
Who knew you would cry like this when you got married?Gu Li's head throbbed with pain.She swore that she would never dare to make Qin Qi cry again. "Don't cry anymore and ignore you!"
Uh... Qin Qi's crying stopped immediately.It's just that the tears couldn't stop and kept flowing.Because I suppressed my voice, I cried so hard that I looked so pitiful and pitiful.
"Good boy." Gu Li had no choice but to unleash the big move of masturbation.Sure enough, Qin Qi, whose forehead was stroked, felt Gu Li's tenderness, and gradually stopped crying.
"Qiqi will be good. Sister Li, don't marry, okay?" Qin Qi knew that such a request was too much.She is the most favored princess, but her parents taught her not to use her status and privileges to do excessive things since she was a child.She never considered her status as a reason to order Gu Li not to marry.But...she really didn't want to leave Gu Li.Just let yourself be willful this time.Let yourself be unreasonable this time.Qin Qi thought silently in his heart.If God is willing to help her, she is willing to suffer from inflammation and poison for life after life.
Seeing Qin Qi who was trying so hard to be cute under his own palm, not even daring to move, Gu Li was really helpless. "Qiqi, I won't marry."
"Really?" Qin Qi carefully concealed her excitement, but the light in her eyes gave everything away.
Gu Li nodded amusedly. "When I was growing up, I always dreamed of becoming a master of martial arts like my master. Once a woman gets married, she must be burdened by mundane affairs. I don't want to live that kind of life." What Gu Li didn't say was that her appearance In China, most people in the world admire her appearance, rather than Gu Li himself.The face will eventually grow old, so what will happen then?With the lessons learned from her mother Yao Chuxue, she had no confidence in men.Maybe she will eventually meet someone who is not confused by her appearance, but she has no patience to find someone in such a huge crowd.For her, it is more suitable for her to live a life like a wild crane like her master Jiang Fengmin.
The corners of Qin Qi's mouth curled up unconsciously.If Gu Li doesn't get married, she can always stay by Gu Li's side.
"But Qiqi, what kind of feelings do you have for me?" Although Gu Li was cold, he was not totally ignorant.If Qin Qi's previous intimacy with her can still be understood as sisterhood, then how to explain this "don't marry" request?
"I, I, I..." Qin Qi stuttered nervously again.
Gu Li didn't speak, and waited for Qin Qi to figure it out.She felt it was her responsibility to let Qin Qi understand what the relationship between the two of them meant.In short, we can no longer get along with each other in such a muddled manner.Qin Qi is naive and doesn't understand, she is not young.This kind of thing is not clear, he is just taking advantage of Qin Qi's feelings.
"I just want to be by Sister Li's side." Qin Qi pointed at her finger with a guilty expression on his face.
"Is that true? In fact, even after I get married, you can still visit me, or even stay at my house for a long time." Gu Li continued to press.
"That's different!" The little rabbit was anxious.
Gu Li raised his eyebrows, "Why is it different?"
"Sister Li is mine!" Qin Qi pouted.Gu Li can only belong to her alone, so don't share it with others.
Silence, the room was silent for a long time before Gu Li asked, "So?"
"So..." Qin Qi raised his head with a blank face, "So sister Li, don't get married."
Gu Li held his forehead dejectedly.It seemed that Qin Qi really didn't understand. "Okay. We'll talk about this later. I can't go out without my grandmother's order. You go back and tell the eldest princess that my grandmother doesn't allow me to recognize my relatives, so I can only thank the eldest princess for her kindness."
Qin Qi blinked his big eyes, as if trying to digest this passage.After she understood it thoroughly, she stood up "huo", "My mother wants to adopt you as a foster daughter, as long as you agree. Only the emperor's uncle can stop this matter. Sister Li, you have to tell the Gu family that it is you who treat the Gu family. respect. The Princess's Mansion doesn't give the Gu family such a big face."
This time it was Gu Li's turn to take time to digest.She looked at the arrogance on Qin Qi's face in surprise, and it turned out that this was the appearance of Princess Feng'an when she showed her majesty.What happened to the rabbit I saw?
"Sister Li, don't worry, I'll take care of this matter. With me here, the Gu family can't do anything for you." Sure enough, after a moment of prestige, Qin Qi put on a fawning smile again.
Gu Li lost his temper by the little rabbit's face-changing.He called Jiangmi to fetch water and came in to wash Qin Qi's face.Qin Qi drove away Mi Xiaomi who came in to serve her, and acted like a baby and asked Gu Li to wash her face.Gu Li just made the little rabbit cry, now he felt guilty, twisted a cloth towel and wiped Qin Qi's cheek.Qin Qi hugged Gu Li's waist with both hands, but he didn't let go.
"Stop making trouble." After washing his face, Gu Li stretched out his hand again to grab Qin Qi off his body and carried him to the bed. "Sit down."
"Oh." Qin Qi had enough, and sat down obediently.Gu Li grabbed her wrist and lost a little bit of cold energy.Then I saw Qin Qi squinting comfortably.
"Don't sleep." Gu Li stretched out his hand to hold her head to prevent her from falling asleep.
"I want to sleep with sister Li." Qin Qi flattered her.
"No." Gu Li didn't want to refuse.
"Why?" Qin Qi was aggrieved.
Gu Li searched for reasons in his head with a headache, and suddenly thought of one, "You still have to send a message to the eldest princess for me."
"That's right." Qin Qi was so coaxing that he believed it right away.
Gu Li withdrew his internal energy, called Da Mi Xiaomi in and took Qin Qi away.Qin Qi reluctantly left.Going to the door, he smiled and said, "Sister Li, I still have to come tomorrow."
Jiang Mi at the door saw the helplessness on Gu Li's face, besides... Is it pampering?
Qin Qi's smile disappeared when he left Qingxueyuan.She was walking on the gravel road of Gu's mansion, and she saw Gu Xuan walking towards her.Qin Qi walked up to Gu Xuan, "Second Miss Gu, where are you going?"
Seeing Qin Qi, Gu Xuan hurriedly saluted. "Master Feng'an, I specially cooked lily and lotus seed porridge and wanted to send it to my grandmother."
"Lily lotus seed porridge, can I have a look?" Qin Qi smiled innocently.
Gu Xuan couldn't refuse, so she asked the maid behind her to bring over the food box containing lily and lotus seed porridge.Gu Xuan opened the food box herself, and a scent of lilies wafted out.
"Delicious porridge!" Qin Qi reached out to get it. "It's so hot!" As soon as she took the bowl out of the food box, she shrank her hands because she thought it was too hot, and spilled all the porridge on the front of Gu Xuan's clothes.
"Ah!" Gu Xuan exclaimed.The porridge was just cooked and brought directly from the kitchen, and it was boiling hot now.It was summer now, and the ladies were all wearing thin clothes, and suddenly her chest was burned a lot. "Princess, you..." Gu Xuan pointed at Qin Qi, but dared not say what was on her lips.
Qin Qi smiled and said, "I'm really sorry, Miss Gu. I didn't expect the porridge to be so hot. It was my fault. I'll apologize for delaying Miss Gu's filial piety." Qin Qi really slightly lean.
How dare Gu Xuan ask Princess Feng'an to pay for it?Quickly dodged to avoid the past. "It's okay, it's okay! Princess, please forgive me for being rude, I'll go back to my room and change my clothes first." Gu Xuan's chest was burning hot, and she couldn't care about getting angry with Qin Qi right now, so she hurried back to her yard.
Seeing that everyone had gone far away, Qin Qi continued to walk outside.When she walked out of the gate of the Gu family, she looked at the lintel of the Gu family and sneered, "Go home."
Princess Palace.
As soon as Qin Qi returned to the mansion, he went to see the eldest princess.Qin Wenbo was also there at this time, and the couple smiled when they saw their daughter coming back.However, when he walked in, he saw his daughter's face was full of displeasure. The husband and wife looked at each other, and the eldest princess said, "Qiqi, what's wrong with you?"
"Mother!" Qin Qi threw herself into the arms of the eldest princess, "The Gu family forbids Sister Li to be your adopted daughter, and even locks Sister Li in Qingxueyuan, preventing her from leaving the house."
The eldest princess frowned upon hearing this.The anger in my heart also rushed up. "This is what your sister Li said."
Qin Qi sat up from the eldest princess' arms, nodded and said: "Sister Li told me personally. Sister Li also said that Mrs. Gu wanted her to marry. Mother, Sister Li said she didn't want to marry. Mother, you Can you save Sister Li? Sister Li is so pitiful." Qin Qi burst into tears as he spoke.
Now the eldest princess is really distressed.My own daughter, every time when the inflammation flares up, she is so sad that she endures it desperately, and she is covered in cold sweat without ever shedding tears.How many times have you cried because of Gu Li?Every tear of the daughter was like a knife piercing the eldest princess' heart.She stood up and said, "Qiqi, my mother will go into the palace to find your emperor's uncle. Mother wants to see, my dignified princess wants to adopt a righteous daughter, who dares to stop her?"
Qin Qi nodded immediately.
Qin Wenbo was the calmest.My wife and daughter usually look magnanimous, but they are actually protecting their weaknesses. No matter who touches the person they love, it will not end well.He grabbed his wife and said, "It's already late today, and it will be tomorrow if you want to enter the palace." He turned to his daughter again and said, "Qiqi, it's getting late, you go back to rest first. Parents will take care of this matter." Sure, I will not let your sister Li be wronged."
"Yeah." Qin Qi bowed obediently and left.Even her father has talked about this matter, so there must be no problem.In Qin Qi's eyes, Qin Wenbo is the most intelligent person.No matter how difficult it is, as long as Qin Wenbo is willing to help, it will be solved.On the surface, Qin Wenbo cannot be an official as a son-in-law.In fact, Qin Wenbo helps his eldest brother Qin Wenyuan, who is the left prime minister, to deal with political affairs every day.And this point was acquiesced by Emperor Zhengyun.
"The Gu family is really a famous family, and they don't even look down on me, the eldest princess." After Qin Qi left, the eldest princess was still angry.
Qin Wenbo smiled and said, "Why should the princess be angry? I'm afraid this matter is not simple."
The eldest princess raised her head upon hearing the words, "What does the son-in-law mean?"
Qin Wenbo pulled his wife to sit on the bed, "The Gu family has been an official in the court for many years, and it is impossible not to understand the situation in the court. Princess, you are favored, and we are favored, this is well known throughout the country. The Gu family Why bother to offend the eldest princess's mansion because of Gu Li? Besides, it is a good thing for the Gu family that Gu Li gets involved in the eldest princess's mansion."
The eldest princess nodded, "Since it's a good thing for the Gu family, why doesn't the Gu family agree?"
Qin Wenbo looked at his wife with a smile. "Yeah, why don't you agree?"
The eldest princess has been in the harem for many years, and she is also a person who is used to tricks.After thinking for a while, he guessed: "Unless there is another matter that brings greater benefits to the Gu family. And that matter conflicts with my taking Gu Li as a foster daughter. That's why the Gu family gave up on my side."
"The princess is really smart."
To get a compliment from her husband, the eldest princess blushed. "So, the Gu family has bigger plans."
"In the final analysis, this matter is related to Gu Li." Qin Wenbo analyzed: "It's strange that the Gu family must insist on Gu Li's recognition of their ancestors and return to their ancestors. It seems that they already had a complete plan at that time."
The eldest princess leaned her body against her husband, "What's the plan?"
"Gu Li's face..." Qin Wenbo raised a point.
The eldest princess understood immediately. "Where can I find such a beauty? Didn't Xiqi just say that Mrs. Gu plans to let Gu Li marry? It seems that the candidate has been decided early in the morning. Is this trying to test Gu Li's reaction?"
"What the princess said is very true." Seeing that his wife had figured it out, Qin Wenbo stopped reminding her.
"Speaking of which, I really want to ask Brother Huang to decide this matter." At this point, the eldest princess sighed, and looked up at her husband, "I think Qi Qi is genuinely moved by Gu Li. Whether she can accept Qiqi in the future, she has always saved Qiqi's people several times. Since she doesn't want to marry herself, I can't let the Gu family treat her as a pawn in marriage. With the status of stepmother, in the future Gu Li's marriage, I can speak in a legitimate way." Thinking of her daughter being loved by her and her husband, and thinking of Gu Li's mother passing away early, and her father's wholehearted desire to exchange her for glory and wealth, she felt very depressed. "Gu Li is also a hard-working girl. I thought that after recognizing my ancestors and returning to the clan, I would get some love from my relatives, but I didn't expect... Sigh!"
Qin Wenbo hugged his wife tightly, and comforted her softly: "Since the princess loves her dearly, it's good to love her more after recognizing her adopted daughter. Qiqi also likes her, the more you dote on her, the happier she will be. Qiqi is happy If so, the entire An Guo Gong Mansion will be happy."
The Gu family, Hua Rongzhai.
One of the elders, Gu Haozhi, was invited to the old lady when he returned home. "Mom, you are looking for me."
"Today Gu Li came and said that the Eldest Princess wants to take her as a foster daughter, what do you think?" the old lady asked.
Gu Haozhi frowned, "In this case, it will be difficult for us to make decisions about her marriage."
"I think so too. So I don't allow her to recognize this relative. But although I can control Gu Li, I can't control the eldest princess. The eldest princess is very defensive. If she enters the palace and asks for the emperor's grace, our Gu family will not be able to control her." You can't disobey the emperor's order." The old lady thought of many things.
"Mother, we can't afford to offend the eldest princess. What if we ask Gu Li to recognize this relative? Although we tell Gu Li that the eldest princess will definitely participate in the future, we don't mean to push Gu Li into the fire pit and marry him. King Rui is worthy of her as a side concubine. My son thinks that the eldest princess may not stop her." Gu Haozhi felt that he did not treat his daughter badly.
The old lady sneered, "If you told me these words yesterday, I would have believed them. But today Gu Li told me clearly that she doesn't marry. Listen, what is she talking about? Good daughter Home, how can there be someone who doesn’t marry?”
Gu Haozhi thought that Gu Li might be very resistant to the marriage arranged by the Gu family, but he never thought about not getting married.With Gu Li's good looks and the Gu family's high family background, even if he entered the palace and became a favor, he would have no problem at all.How can anyone choose to die alone with such good conditions?
"Maybe... Gu Li is afraid that we will marry her at will." Gu Haozhi suddenly remembered something, "She went to Princess Rui's birthday banquet the day before yesterday, did she see King Rui?"
The old lady recalled it carefully, "I heard from Yin'er that she never saw her. She and Princess Feng'an didn't attend the banquet at all."
Gu Haozhi laughed and said, "Mother, when Gu Li meets Queen Rui, he will naturally agree to this marriage. How can there be anything to choose with a character and appearance like King Rui?"
The old lady nodded. "I hope so. Boss, you have to know about this matter. What I mean is to do it as soon as possible. To avoid long nights and dreams."
"My son understands."
Qin Qi is the barometer of the entire Anguo government.When she is happy, An Guogong's mansion is happy.She was not happy that no one in An Guogong's mansion dared to laugh out loud.Qin Qi got up every day to greet his parents, and then went to the next door to An Guogong's mansion to greet his grandfather and grandmother.I have to say hello to my uncle and aunt.Of course, everyone felt that this series of greetings was too hard, so they specially asked her to come to greet her if she had nothing to do, and not to come if she had something to do.
Qin Qi got up very early today.Go to the front yard first to greet your parents.After eating together, they entered Anguo Gong's mansion through the corner gate.
An Guogong Mansion, Qinghui Hall.
When Gu Li came in, Mrs. Guo had just had breakfast, and when she saw Qin Qi coming in, please An immediately asked her to come and sit down. "Qiqi, come to grandma quickly."
"Grandmother." Qin Qi was obedient, sitting next to Mrs. Guogong, looked at the forehead wiped on Mrs. Guogong's head and said, "Grandmother, this forehead wipe is really beautiful. Is it the handicraft of sister Zigui?"
Mrs. Guogong smiled and said, "You still have sharp eyes. You brought this gemstone, and it was polished just before. Zigui stayed up all night to make this forehead wipe for me. I wear it just right."
"Sister Zigui is amazing!" Qin Qi admired a handsome maid standing beside her.
The servant girl named Zigui Wanfu said: "My maidservant, thank you Princess for your compliment."
Qin Qi smiled, "Grandmother, I heard that green plums have come down from the farm in the countryside. Can you leave a basket for Xiqi when they come to the mansion?"
The Duke's wife frowned and said, "Qiqi, green plums are so sour, what do you want them for?"
"Give it away. Qiqi has a friend who likes to eat green plums." Qin Qi smiled with a harmless face.
Mrs. Guo's mouth was sour when she heard this, and she reached out and poked Qin Qi's forehead lightly, "You, you are the most naughty. Qingmei should be shipped in a few days, and then I will ask Zigui to leave a basket for you." You send it."
"Thank you, grandma." Qin Qi hugged Mrs. Guo's arm and rubbed it, making everyone in the room laugh.
After paying his respects, Qin Qi packed up his things, let Rice carry a small burden and went out.When the eldest princess heard that Qin Qi was going out with a burden, she shook her head and said, "What is this girl going to do again? Forget it, let her go. With Gu Li around, nothing can happen." Subconsciously, the eldest princess Gu Li's ability to protect Qin Qi has been recognized.
Gu family, listen to Yuxuan.
This is the yard of the second miss, Gu Xuan.Yesterday Gu Xuan was splashed with a bowl of hot porridge by Qin Qi, and when she came back and took off her clothes, there were large blisters on her chest, which made her cry.The eldest lady Wu Siran was surprised when she came to see the news.
"Princess Feng'an is too ruthless!" How can my daughter not feel distressed?Wu Siran was born in the Marquis of Wuning, an honorable family, and the lady has a very bad temper. "Our Gu family is a famous family anyway, why does she harm you like this? No, I have to go to the eldest princess's mansion to ask. Even if she is favored again, she can't act like this." Wu Siran watched the servant girl apply good ointment to Gu Xuan, I will go to the princess' mansion to discuss.
"Mother!" Gu Xuan understood the reason of the matter in her heart, and held Wu Siran tightly. "Forget it, mother, she is the princess of Feng'an! If you go there, you won't be able to get anything good, so it's unlucky to be a daughter."
Wu Siran looked at Gu Xuan grinning in pain and trying not to cause trouble, and said distressedly: "My Xuan'er, you are so sensible. This matter can't be finished, sooner or later my mother will ask you to pay back the debt Come."
After Wu Siran left, Gu Yin came to see her sister.Only the two sisters knew about the affairs of Prince Rui's Mansion the day before yesterday.At this moment, Gu Yin looked at Gu Xuan's appearance of enduring the pain, and said distressedly: "Xuan'er, I didn't expect Princess Feng'an to be so bold as to do something blatantly in Gu's house."
Gu Xuan smiled wryly. "Eldest sister, she is the princess of Feng'an County, what can she do? Although I am having a hard time, we didn't let Gu Li show his face in front of King Rui after all. You and I both know that there are not many men who can't resist Gu Li's face." Attracted. What if King Rui takes a fancy to it, what will you do?"
The handkerchief in Gu Yin's hand was twisted tightly. "Why should she seduce King Rui?"
"Elder Sister." Gu Xuan looked at the room again and saw that there was no one else, so she said in a low voice: "Since you like King Rui, you should make preparations early. I know that Mother is already planning a marriage for us. Once It's too late for you to say anything."
Gu Yin blushed. "This kind of thing...how do you want me to prepare?"
Gu Xuan thought for a while, "I think you might as well tell Niang Ming. Can Niang help you?"
Gu Yin immediately shook her head. "But you must never say that. Our Gu family has the most rules. As a young lady who has not left the cabinet, I will be fined to kneel in the ancestral hall if I say such things."
They are all souls bound by the rules of the Gu family, and they dare not do anything less than that.
The Gu family, Qingxueyuan.
Gu Li got up early to practice boxing in the yard.With her level of martial arts, there is no need to deliberately practice external martial arts.It is more about practicing inner exercises.Practicing boxing and kicking every morning is just to maintain the necessary physical strength and flexibility.
After a set of punches, Jiang Mi sent over a handkerchief.Gu Li wiped the sweat off his face, took a shower and changed his clothes, and went to pay his respects to the old lady.Yesterday, the old lady forbade her to go out, and even her maids were not allowed to go out, clearly making things difficult.The old lady thought that Gu Li would come to her to reason, but she didn't expect that Gu Li really didn't go out, and went back to her yard to stay quietly.
I came to pay my respects this morning and couldn't see anything unusual.Gu Xuan didn't come today, and Gu Yin's complexion was not very good, she looked at Gu Li with disdain and a hint of fear in her eyes.
"Xuan'er is sick, and Yin'er's complexion is not good. She didn't sleep well yesterday? Miss, don't have so many worries at home, you have lost your good looks." The old lady turned her head and said to Yuan's mother: "Go to my bed later. Take some bird's nests from the small storeroom, and send some to each young lady to refresh her complexion. The daughter of our Gu family has been raised and raised, so we must not be wronged by the cost."
Mama Yuan leaned over and said, "Yes, old lady."
The three sisters of the Gu family and Gu Li all got up and said, "Thank you, grandma."
The old lady waved to the ladies to sit down. "Thank you, they are all my granddaughters, and I deserve to be hurt." Speaking of this, the old lady sighed, "You are all grown up now. Except for Yinger, everyone is already old. It's time to tell you about others. "
The three sisters bowed their heads shyly except for the fourth miss, Gu Ying.Only Gu Li, as if he had never heard of it, just sat there quietly.
