Tangled

Chapter 67

When Gu Qingning brought the medicinal materials and a group of younger sisters to Changfeng Pavilion, the atmosphere inside was solemn, except for the sound of smashing medicine, there was no other sound.

Eleven was guarding the courtyard gate, Gu Qingning looked away, bowed to him and said: "Grandmother ordered me to visit Cousin Shen."

"This is the medicinal material that my grandmother ordered me to bring over. I beg you to be flexible and let us go in and visit."

"Miss, Master Hou said that no one can go in, and I hope that Miss will not embarrass her subordinates."

"Now that the cousin is not awake, it is not appropriate to disturb her. The eldest girl should go back first. When the cousin wakes up, the subordinate will let the eldest girl be notified."

Normally, Gu Qingning wouldn't come here to run into trouble, but now that the prince is inside, she can't give up easily.

"Grandmother is really worried about my cousin's situation. My lord should go in and report. Qingning has seen it, so I can have an explanation with grandma."

"I'm sorry, Miss. If Master Hou says you can't enter, then you can't enter."

"Oh, why are you so stupid? It's the elder brother's decision whether to let us in or not. You are the gatekeeper. If you are told to go in, you will report it."

Gu Qingyun couldn't see that all the doorkeepers were so defiant, so she stepped forward and said loudly.

Her voice was sharp, even if she didn't go in to make an announcement, everyone inside could hear her clearly.

He was already having a headache because of Shen Qiqi's matter, but upon hearing this sharp voice, Mu Chengze came out with a cold face.

"If you dare to make noise again, Gu will sew your mouth shut."

"You can't even solve a few little girls. Eleven has been slacking off a lot recently. It seems that I have to talk to Ashu so that you can go out and practice more."

After frightening Gu Qingyun first, Mu Chengze turned around and scolded Eleven coldly.

"The ministers and daughters pay tribute to His Royal Highness the Prince."

"My daughter was ordered by my grandmother to come to visit, if she bothers you, please forgive me, Your Highness."

The crown prince didn't let them get up, Gu Qingning and a group of people bent their knees and bowed their backs, and they couldn't hold it for dozens of breaths before their bodies started to ache.

Mu Chengze half-closed his eyes, looked them up and down for a long time, and finally shook his head silently and sighed.

The girls of the Gu family were born well, but they were born well.

Although I have studied the Book of Rites for so many years, I am still so impetuous inside.

All the good intentions are only on the surface. It feels fresh at the first glance, but it will be boring when you look at it again.

This old lady really deserves to be born in the market, even if she wears jewelry and fine clothes, she can't hide her stinginess in her bones.

"Go back, Miss Shen is still awake, and you will only get in the way here."

"Eleventh, if they continue to make noise, they will be knocked out and sent back. Don't pester them, lest Ashu find out and throw you to the training ground as a stake."

He really didn't have the heart to deal with them, and Mu Chengze also gave up his original demeanor, and directly opened his mouth to chase them away.

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Eleven took the order, turned to look at Gu Qingning and the others, and stretched out his hand to ask them to leave.

It took a long time to get here, and I was delivering medicine for my grandmother, but I didn't even think I could get in through the gate of the courtyard.

Gu Qingning looked innocent, but there was embarrassment in his eyes.

Seeing the prince turned around and went in, she responded "Yes."

Leaving the area of ​​Changfeng Pavilion, Gu Qingyun was indignant, "Sister, Shen Qiqi's display is too big, we came to visit, but she didn't even let us in."

"The Hou Mansion treated her with great kindness, but she acted like this, it's really embarrassing."

If the grandmother hadn't seen her pitifully and picked her up back then, her life would be so difficult now.

No father, no mother, and no brothers, so he can't be bullied to death by others.

Although he has neglected her these years, he has never lost her in food, clothing, housing and transportation. If he had known this, he should not have brought her back in the first place.

She was so angry that she kicked the pebbles beside her feet, her bright little face was flushed with anger.

Gu Qingning lowered her eyebrows and did not answer her words.

Now that Shen Qiqi is still awake, not letting them in is also an order from her eldest brother. Although he doesn't like her, he also knows that this matter has nothing to do with her.

But if you know it, look at it, if you want to explain it to her, Gu Qingning also thinks that they are not so good.

These years have not been in contact with her, and she has been treated very well if she doesn't go down the drain in this life-and-death ordeal.

"Don't say this again in the future. If grandma hears it, be careful that you will be punished to kneel in the ancestral hall again."

The ancestral hall is no better than the Buddhist hall. The Buddhist hall is attached to the Furong Yuan. People will pass by from time to time outside the door. Although the doors and windows are closed, staying inside will not feel too scary.

But the ancestral hall is different. The ancestral hall is on the outermost side of the Hou Mansion, blocked by rockery and high courtyard walls. Even in Baiyan, the inside is extremely dark.

Moreover, the ancestral hall is such a solemn place that no one dares to approach it except for the servants who clean it every day.

If she entered the ancestral hall, she would be scared out of illness without staying overnight.

I was punished twice when I was a child, but that scary scene reappeared after mentioning it.

Gu Qingyun rubbed her arms and told Gu Qingning to stop talking in a low voice.

Seeing that she was frightened, Gu Qingning stopped talking, and took the things back to Fu Rong Yuan.

"Since she doesn't want it, let's put it back."

The old lady fiddled with the Buddhist beads in her hand, and looked up at the old mother, "Let people pay more attention to the movement of Changfeng Pavilion."

"Whether that girl is dead or alive, there must be someone who can believe it."

The old nanny backed away, and the old lady looked at the granddaughters who were standing all over the room, and waved them back.

In the grandson's generation, there are too few males. Among the children in the courtyard, there is only one boy besides Gu Tingshu.

No matter how many girls there are, they will all marry in the future. If there are not many brothers to help, how will the Hou Mansion be better in the future.

"Qingning, have you seen the prince?"

"If you go back to grandma, you've seen her before, but Qing Ning seems to dislike her granddaughter when she looks at the prince like that."

Thinking of her, Gu Qingning, the majestic daughter of the Marquis of Yong'an, is not always a star everywhere, how could she have suffered such humiliation.

"Grandmother, the way the crown prince treats Qing Ning, we are afraid..."

"Qingning, grandma also knows how difficult it is to marry into the East Palace, but if you don't marry into the East Palace, how will your younger brother compete with Gu Tingshu for the family property in the future?"

"Although Gu Tingshu said that honor and disgrace have nothing to do with the Marquis, but the rest of his life is long. If he regrets it, how can your brother beat him?"

If all of this Hou's mansion falls into the hands of Gu Tingshu, no matter whether she is married high or low, she will have a hard time without anyone to support her.

"Grandmother, Qingning has a plan, I don't know whether to tell it or not."

Seeing her hesitation, the old lady waved her hands away from the maidservants and beckoned her to come forward.

"Tell me, what's your plan?"

Gu Qingning glanced at the door and window to make sure that no one was eavesdropping outside, then lowered his voice and said, "It won't work here, the prince, we can go another way."

Your Majesty doesn't have only one son, if this one doesn't work, another one will do.
