[Red Mansion] Ronghua Road of Mrs. Hou's Mansion

"Chen Mei is not ignorant of the matter of the second bedroom of the Gu family. Why did he come to the Gu family to question us?" After a moment of silence, Sister Feng said, "Let's go out and have a look."

Before leaving Yusheng Residence, she saw Chen Mei walking over with two maids, followed by the mother-in-law and servants of the Gu family.Seeing Sister Feng coming, she seemed to have seen a savior, and hurriedly pleaded guilty, "Madam, Lord Hou, I can't stop you..."

He said he couldn't stop him, but he was actually afraid of hurting Chen Mei. After all, Chen Mei's status was precious.

Sister Feng waved her hand, "You guys go down first."

The mother-in-law and the servant left quickly.

Sister Feng took a few steps forward, and said with a smile, "Miss Chen San is here, and I'm sorry to welcome you."

Chen Mei looked at Sister Feng and snorted lightly, "I'm afraid that if I had been notified in advance, you wouldn't have let me in at all."

"Third Miss is joking, you are a distinguished guest, how can I keep the distinguished guest out? I don't know what is the purpose of Third Miss's visit to the house?"

Chen Mei asked coldly, "What am I here for, doesn't Mrs. Hou know?"

Sister Feng looked at the two maids who were filled with righteous indignation beside her, and she was still smiling, "No matter what the reason is, it's not appropriate for the third girl to do this. If you come to my house aggressively and make trouble, aren't you afraid that people outside will talk about you?"

"Gu Zhaoyu is not afraid of being criticized for doing such vicious things. I just want to help my sister get justice, so what's so scary?" Chen Mei raised her brows, looking very angry.

Sister Feng was suspicious in her heart, Chen Mei was not such an impatient person, and she still had something in her hands, how could she come to Gu's house to make trouble in such a big way?

Forget it, since she wants to make a scene known to everyone, she will accompany her to continue acting.

"Miss San should know that the second room no longer exists in the Gu family. Even if you want to seek justice for the princess, you should go to Lihua Lane to look for Gu Zhaoyu's brother and father. We really shouldn't be blamed for this."

Chen Mei persisted, "Is it useful to find those two people? Even though her father and elder brother were expelled, Gu Zhaoyu is still the Gu family. Is it wrong for me to come to you?"

Sister Feng looked very helpless, "So the third girl is determined not to go back?"

Chen Mei nodded, "If your Gu family don't give me an explanation today, I won't go back."

Sister Feng couldn't help it, "Forget it, since you don't want to leave, I can't make decisions on this matter alone, so I can only trouble grandma. Miss San, I will personally accompany you to Ningxin Hall."

Seeing this, the people around all backed away, and Chen Mei and Sister Feng walked to the front naturally, as if eager to ask Mrs. Gu for an explanation.

The two walked side by side, Chen Mei looked indifferent, but she stuffed something into Sister Feng's hands through her wide sleeves.

Sister Feng raised her eyebrows in surprise, feeling that it was folded paper, she asked her with her eyes.

Chen Mei looked at the front and whispered: "I am also a lady of everyone, do you think I want to destroy my reputation to take care of my family? It was my second sister who told me that I must hand this letter to you personally, but from the standpoint of our two families , I really can't find any reason to visit Gu's house, after much deliberation, this is the only way."

Sister Feng took it very seriously, knowing the concerns of Chen Mei and the princess.Although she and Chen Mei had finally resolved their grievances, outsiders didn't think so, especially the empress should not feel that the relationship between the Chen family and the Gu family had eased, otherwise they would definitely doubt the loyalty of the Chen family to the prince.

"Third Miss, do you know the intention of the Crown Princess?"

Chen Mei's tone was sour: "How did I know when the second sister had such a good relationship with you, and there is still a secret I want to tell you in private."

Sister Feng thought to herself, she doesn't know why the Crown Princess did this, the two of them are just acquaintances, what is it worth the Crown Princess to go through such a big detour to tell her?

"Who else knows about this except you and me?"

Chen Mei was a little distressed, and said: "Second sister told me not to let my parents hear the news. Of course, only the three of us know. If I make such a big noise, I will definitely be punished when I go back."

After the two were no longer enemies, Sister Feng suddenly felt that Chen Mei was cute.She smiled and said, "Don't you want to vent your anger for the princess?"

"Of course I thought about it." After a pause, Chen Mei's eyes lit up, "You're right, I can't make this mess for nothing, I must teach Gu Zhaoyu a lesson."

The two whispered in a low voice, and the people behind couldn't hear it clearly, they just thought they were arguing.Soon, the group arrived at Ning Xintang.Mrs. Gu had received the news a long time ago, and she was drinking tea while waiting for someone.

Out of etiquette, Chen Mei greeted the old lady first.

Mrs. Gu did not show dissatisfaction, and said to her: "Miss Chen, please sit down."

Chen Meishi calmly took her seat.

The old lady said: "Miss Chen comes here very rarely, so just speak up if you have anything to say."

Chen Mei said lightly: "I know that as a junior, it is indeed rude to say these things in front of you, but the princess is my own sister, and she has suffered so much. Please forgive me for not being able to turn a blind eye. I know, Although you don't care too much, you are a wise and wise person. How can you not see what kind of person Gu Zhaoyu is, and what kind of person is the princess? The second sister has been the princess for so many years, and has never harmed a single person. The concubine's room and children, everyone in the house respects her very much, so how could she frame Gu Zhaoyu out of jealousy?

Furthermore, my second sister once lost a child, and she finally got pregnant. Naturally, she regarded it as a treasure and was cautious, so why would she take her own child in order to frame Gu Zhaoyu?But Gu Zhaoyu pushed everything on my second sister. Obviously my second sister lost her child, so she became the wronged person?The prince can't see the facts clearly, but there are many people with clear eyes and hearts in the world. You must be able to guess what the inside story is?I know you might say that the second room of the Gu family has been kicked out of the Gu family, so I'm going to find the second master and the fourth young master Gu for an explanation.

Even so, Gu Zhaoyu lived in the Gu family before marrying into the Prince's Mansion, and now her name is still on the Gu family tree, shouldn't I come to the Hou Mansion to ask you for an explanation?Old madam, the Gu family is also a powerful family, and the family style has always been strict. It really surprised me to raise such a vicious and selfish daughter as Gu Zhaoyu.She not only harmed the crown princess, but also the prince's son-in-law. Could it be that you are indifferent and allow such a woman to ruin the atmosphere of the Gu family? "

Mrs. Gu remained silent for a long time, and finally sighed after a long time, "I naturally believe in the Crown Princess, she has always been virtuous and generous, and would not intentionally frame a concubine's room."

"Since you can see clearly, do you still pretend to be ignorant and indulge Gu Zhaoyu?" Chen Mei said, "You can call me arrogant or rude, if you don't give the Chen family an explanation today, I will Definitely won't give up."

Mrs. Gu asked, "Can you represent the Chen family?"

"Father is afraid of going against the Gu family and causing trouble, but I'm not afraid. Because that's my own sister, my own nephew, I can't keep calm, I can't swallow my anger."

Mrs. Gu suddenly laughed, "The third girl is really quick-talking and different." Sipping tea, she said, "The reason why Gu Hong and Gu Yanwen were expelled from the family is because they made a big mistake and cannot be tolerated by the Gu family. But Gu Chaoyu didn't make any big mistakes on the bright side. I thought about meeting her grandparents. She is a woman. In order to preserve her face, her name is still on the Gu family tree. It's a pity that she didn't Understand my painstaking efforts, but fueled her arrogance, and her methods became more vicious."

Chen Mei was surprised in her heart, but remained calm on the surface, "Since you understand that you don't know how to deal with her, you can't be reluctant to part with her?"

Chen Mei sat as firmly as a mountain, and Mrs. Gu would not leave unless she agreed.

Mrs. Gu was not angry either, and said: "Don't worry, Miss San, the Gu family will definitely give the Chen family and the Crown Princess an explanation for this matter."

Chen Mei felt half angry, got up and said: "Chen Mei thanked the old lady here, and please don't mind my rudeness."

Mrs. Gu waved her hand indifferently, "Third Miss's words are reasonable, how can I take this to heart?"

Chen Mei glanced at Sister Feng indistinctly, and said, "In that case, this junior will leave first."

As soon as Chen Mei left, Mrs. Gu said, "Send someone to invite Gu's elders here."

At the beginning, she felt a little bit of compassion, thinking that Gu Zhaoyu, a woman who was expelled from the family, would look bad, but she was so bold and unscrupulous.If he had known this earlier, he should have let her and Gu Yanwen get rid of the family together, and it would have saved a lot of trouble.

Just when everyone was discussing that the princess concubine framed Gu Zhaoyu with miscarriage and Gu Zhaoyu was punished by the queen, a piece of news came from the Gu family.

Because Gu Chaoyu was neither virtuous nor virtuous, he was detrimental to the Gu family's family tradition, so he was expelled from the family.

These were obviously spread on purpose by the Gu family, and it was clearly a slap in the face of Gu Zhaoyu.Isn't this telling everyone that the princess was wronged?Now Gu Zhaoyu has nothing to rely on for the last time, let's see how proud she is.

And Gu Chaoyu didn't even have a chance to sympathize with Bo, and the Gu family didn't leave her the last retreat.

Some people thought that the Gu family killed relatives righteously and understood the truth, while others said that the Gu family had no choice but to excommunicate Gu Chaoyu because of the persecution of the Chen family.But no matter what it is, it will be a blow to Gu Zhaoyu.

But the Chen family is not as proud as others think.

Chen Taifu held the ruler and looked at Chen Mei who was kneeling on the ground, "Now that you are grown up and have your own opinions, you will learn to cut first and then play, right? When did I ask you to take someone to Gu's house to ask for an explanation? Now this matter The city is full of disturbances, but I, the father, was the last to know, you are really capable."

While talking, he was about to hit her with the board.

Mrs. Xu hurriedly stopped Taifu Chen, "Isn't it just such a trivial matter, why are you blowing your beard and staring? She is your daughter, and I feel sorry for hurting you."

Taifu Chen pointed at Chen Mei, "If you don't discuss such a big matter with me, you can just make up your own mind. Now that everyone knows about it, you still want me not to be angry?"

Chen Mei lowered her head and muttered, "I don't think I did anything wrong. Second sister suffers, how can I just ignore it? Father swallowed this breath, I can't bear it. The crown prince is indifferent to second sister, so I can't turn a blind eye. Otherwise, outsiders will only think that our Chen family is easy to bully."

"Are you still reasonable?" Chen Taifu's beard trembled angrily, "You are a daughter's house, what does it look like to go to other people's house to make trouble?"

"Second Sister has always been gentle and respectful, well-behaved, but always compromised, so why not if I don't behave properly now and then?"

"Who did you learn this from?" Mrs. Chen was the first to see Chen Mei so eloquent.

"No one taught me, that's how I think."

"You don't know how to repent?" Taifu Chen stared angrily.

"I--"

"Okay, Mei'er, don't say a few words." Mrs. Chen winked at Chen Mei, and then said to Chen Taifu, "It is true that Mei'er made her own proposal, but she did what I wanted. Why do Xuan'er suffer so much, but we have to swallow our anger and be generous for the sake of the so-called face? Ordinary daughters who have been wronged can go back to their natal family to cry and let their natal family come forward to ask for justice. Why can't we? Just because Is Xuan'er the Crown Princess? You don't know how much Xuan'er has endured in the Prince's Mansion for so many years, but have you comforted Xuan'er once, knowing that the Crown Prince's virtues are good, and you have tried your best to help him. You can As your loyal courtier, I only care about my daughter's well-being."

"Ma'am, what are you talking about?" Fortunately, there was no one else in the room, so it would be bad if it got out.

"The truth." Mrs. Chen said.

"The crown prince is the eldest son, and he is orthodox. If I don't support him, can I still support others?" Taifu Chen frowned.

Mrs. Chen, Chen Mei pulled her up, and said with a sneer: "Okay, you can support whoever you want. If you can really support someone like the prince who can't be supported by mud, I really admire you. Now I only care about me." Can my daughter live happily ever after?" She snatched the ruler from Taifu Chen and threw it on the ground, "Don't even think about beating Mei'er again."

Walking to the door, Mrs. Chen turned her head and said, "Pedantic."

Chen Taifu is dumb, he is pedantic, is he pedantic?

He paced around the room for a while, raised his head and let out a long sigh, suddenly remembered something, his eyes froze.

He mainly taught Chen Mei to make his own way, so why did it end up being his fault?

This drama lasted for several days, and Gu Zhaoyu was hit hard.Because she is no longer the daughter of the Gu family, and she is just a Fengyi who is hated by the queen, so everyone in the prince's mansion is insulting her, even the prince doesn't go there much anymore.

Gu Zhaoyu is in a difficult situation, and she hates the Gu family even more, thinking that the Gu family is too ruthless to her.

Sister Feng knew that Gu Chaoyu would definitely anger the Gu family, but it was Gu Chaoyu's own fault, and she didn't have the heart to sympathize with her.

In the past few days, she has been thinking about the princess and read the letter over and over again.

"It seems that the Crown Princess is really disheartened. I never expected that she would take the initiative to join us behind Taifu Chen's back."

Gu Xingchi said: "Blindly accepting the situation will not lead to good results, it will only make people gain an inch. The Crown Princess must have seen through the Crown Prince before she made this decision."

Sister Feng looked up at him, "Do you really believe her?"

Gu Xingchi smiled and said, "You trust her too, don't you?"

"If I were her, I would definitely not be able to bear it for so many years."

Gu Xingchi said with great interest, "Oh, what will you do."

Sister Feng really thought about it carefully, "Since we can't reconcile, we can't remarry, so we can only be widowed."

Gu Xingchi's face darkened, and he said sadly, "Remarry? Widow?"

Sister Feng put her hands in front of her body, preventing him from approaching, "You asked me to say this, I'm just telling the truth."

Gu Xingchi grinds his teeth next to her ear, "With me here, don't even think about it."

Sister Feng laughed out loud, "Isn't this a hypothesis?"

"That's not OK."

Sister Feng's eyes fluttered, and she became more and more charming, "Since this is the case, you must always treat me well. If you change your mind, I will not be as kind and magnanimous as the Crown Princess, and I can bear it for so long."

Gu Xingchi's laughter was deep and sweet, "With a beautiful, intelligent and powerful lady like you, how could I be willing to change my mind?"

As he spoke, he held her in his arms, and his lips fell on her face lightly and heavily, breathing more and more heavily.She raised her hand to hook his neck, becoming more and more intimate.

The two were laughing and joking, Gu Xingchi was about to make the next move when suddenly the face of the person in his arms turned pale and his brows were frowned, looking very uncomfortable.

Gu Xing hurriedly got up, and asked nervously, "What's the matter, what's wrong?"

Sister Feng shook her head, "It's nothing, I just suddenly felt a stomachache."

Hearing this, Gu Xingchi hurriedly asked Xia Yanqi to come over.

Xia Yanqi was resting, and after squinting for a while, someone woke him up from the bed, rubbed his half-opened eyes, and trotted all the way to Yushengju.

Gu Xingchi pulled him over, "Why are you so slow?"

Xia Yanqi opened his mouth, "You——"

"Okay, stop rambling, and get Ah Feng's pulse." Gu Xingchi pushed him away.

Facing the amiable Feng Jie, Xia Yanqi decided not to argue with Gu Xingchi.

After a while, he straightened up and sat down to drink tea without saying a word.

Gu Xingchi snatched the teacup with his hands, "Speak."

"I'm not sick, what do you want me to say?" Xia Yanqi took the teapot over and refilled a cup of tea.

"Xia Yanqi—" Gu Xingchi was very impatient with his behavior.

Xia Yanqi put the teacup on the table, "Are you ashamed to ask me? How do you behave as a husband, you don't even know your wife is pregnant, and you still mess around, what if..."

Gu Xingchi's ears were slightly red, and he coughed lightly, "Stop saying what you shouldn't."

Xia Yanqi rolled his eyes at him and laughed twice.

Gu Xingchi asked: "Are you sure Ah Feng is pregnant again?" He emphasized the word 'again'.

Xia Yanqi said contemptuously, "Are you a doctor or am I a doctor? Although it's still young, I can still make a correct diagnosis according to my medical skills."

Sister Feng was surprised at first, and then delighted. She never thought that she would have a son so soon, so that she could make up for the regrets of her previous life.Somehow she felt it must be a boy this time.

Only Gu Xingchi stared at Biqing's tea leaves, silent, with unpredictable expressions.

Xia Yanqi said: "What's the matter with your reluctance? Why don't you send someone to congratulate the old lady for such a big happy event?"

Gu Xingchi looked up at him, "Okay, then I'll trouble you to make a trip."

Xia Yanqi thought to himself that the two of them must have something to say, and they didn't want to disturb them.He stood up, "If I go, I will go, hum, I will know how to kill donkeys, cross rivers and bridges."

Gu Xingchi sat next to Sister Feng and stared at her belly.

Sister Feng rolled up the quilt again, and looked at him suspiciously, "You don't like this child?"

Gu Xingchi seemed to have not accepted this fact yet, and said, "No, I was just too surprised, and this child came too fast."

Sister Feng smiled and said, "I don't think so. This is very good. The age difference between their siblings is small, they can grow up together, and their relationship will be very deep."

Gu Xingchi stared at her and asked, "What about me?"

"what?"

The more Gu Xingchi thought about it, the more depressed he felt, "After having a daughter, my position is already at the back. If you have a son, do I still have a place in your heart?"

Sister Feng was startled, then laughed, "What nonsense, you are the father of the child, how can there be no place for you?"

Hearing this, he felt even more depressed.After all, the child is the most important thing in her heart, and he seems to be incidental.

Moreover, he has only been a vegetarian for half a year, and he is going to be a vegetarian again.

Soon, the news of Sister Feng's pregnancy spread in the capital. At the same time, the Lu family also reported that Cheng Wan was pregnant.

Time flies, and soon it will be late spring, and the weather will start to heat up.

The news of King Nan'an's defeat also spread to the capital.
