Cousin girl's salted fish life

Chapter 70 Mutation
In the middle of the fifth month of the eighth year of Xianqing, there was an urgent report from the frontier, and the main general Gu Lin, Duke of Zhen Guo, fell off his horse and was injured while chasing the defeated Khitan army.

When the news spread, the capital was shocked, and the emperor made three decrees in succession.The first is to change generals just before the battle, and Cheng Anhou, the deputy general at the border, will temporarily act as the chief general.The second is to appoint Gao Pinghou to replace Cheng'anhou as deputy general, and rush to the border with Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of War and four imperial doctors.The third is to order the imperial physician to try his best to treat Duke Zhen Guo. If he can travel far, he will return to Beijing with his attendants to recuperate; if he cannot move, he will treat him at the original place and return to Beijing after he is stable.The required medicinal materials and utensils must be supplied by the three continents of the border, and those who dare to block and procrastinate will be killed.

This change was no less than a magnitude [-] earthquake in the Gu family, and the Duke's wife fell ill after hearing the news.Fortunately, there is Mrs. Tai in charge, so that they don't panic.Then the emperor issued an order to appease and sent an imperial doctor, this time the Gu family was completely stabilized.Because the second master of the Gu family is the deputy commander of the Jinwu Guard, he has a lot of responsibilities and cannot go to the border in person, and the son is too young.In the end, the Gu family sent Gu Jun, the eldest son of the Gu family, to the border with the court and horses to serve Duke Zhen Guo.

One month later, the Minister of the Ministry of War returned to Beijing first, and after reporting the military situation at the border, he said that Duke Mingzhen's injury had stabilized and he was slowly entering Beijing, accompanied by the imperial doctor.

The emperor was overjoyed when he heard the news, and immediately issued a decree to bestow the marriage, canonizing the eldest daughter of the Gu family, Yuan, as the crown prince, and bestowed several female officials and teachers to accompany the crown prince.Considering that Zhen Guogong was seriously injured and did not return, the wedding date was set for one year later.

Under the imperial decree, the Gu family once again became the center of Yanjing, diluting the haze of Duke Zhenguo's serious injury, and the Gu family's reputation as the No. [-] honorable man in Yanjing became even stronger.

In the past few months, the situation has changed, and Hui Lan has a deeper understanding of the power of the imperial power.When the news of the Duke's injury came, she lifted the restraint.With her great enlightenment and meditation cultivation, plus five hard-working moral scriptures, she finally won the forgiveness of the eldest lady.Or the eldest lady didn't really blame her at first, she was just angry at her ignorance.

The two sisters said a lot of personal words, and the eldest lady's words were full of advice to her.Huilan knew what was good and what was wrong, so of course she was open-minded and taught.

Afterwards, Hui Lan admired the eldest lady even more. She was locked up for half a month, and no one from the top to the bottom of the house visited or sent anyone to visit, including her own aunt.When she came out, there was nothing but care and love for her from top to bottom.She couldn't help but want to ask what explanation her aunt got, but she only got her aunt's secretive stop and avoidance.Hui Lan became even more curious, this is unscientific!
It's a pity that this unscientific thing happened, and Huilan couldn't help but be convinced.She had just learned the lesson, and she didn't dare to ask the eldest lady, so she could only hold back the unsolved case in her heart.

However, after this encounter, Hui Lan was even more distracted.In all fairness, the degree of compatibility between the eldest lady and the crown princess is estimated to be ranked on the first ladder in the whole Daqin.Status, family background, appearance and upbringing, character, learning and intelligence...all are top-notch.She was stimulated more by the degree of freedom and the cheating system of men in feudal society who had multiple concubines.

But there is no way, there is no solution to this, in order not to trouble herself, Hui Lan can only pretend not to see it.Beyond that, there was nothing left to worry about but a court conspiracy.She was only worried that the eldest lady had received the most orthodox education since she was a child, and was also the eldest daughter favored by the government. She was afraid that she would not understand the mentality and survival wisdom of those low-level people.You know, the royal family is the most unruly existence, as long as the high-ranking person likes it, no matter how low the voice is, they can get into a high-ranking position.Moreover, the Gu family has no aunt or concubine's children. The eldest lady has no chance to get along with these two types of people and experience the hardships and hardships.

Although Hui Lan has never experienced it before, she has seen a lot.Those literary creations are enough for her to be a "mentor", of course only limited to theory.Coupled with her big brain and rich imagination, tsk tsk tsk, her "mentor" will only be more cruel.

It's a pity that she, a little loli who is not yet ten years old, can be a mentor for a big lady who is about to get married in a year at most.It is estimated that the greatest possibility is that she will be imprisoned again for a lifetime.Life is such a mess, she has a lot of theoretical knowledge, but she can't say it out! ! !

Then Hui Lan remembered the evaluation she had made when she first met the eldest lady, and she wished to give her a big mouth.Maybe it's because she has the function of a crow's mouth, so the good ones can't work but the bad ones can't.Hui Lan woke up with a start, and she could no longer talk nonsense in the future.Of course, it can still be used in the face of enemies.

Then, the bad news came, and the whole family was shocked.The eldest lady just happened to feel a little sick, and she was bedridden immediately after this blow.The most stable person in the family is the old lady. She first asked the eldest lady to take Liulang to serve the eldest lady; then she reprimanded the flustered Mrs. Li, and entrusted the housework to her after she regained her composure; After that, Erlang took Sanlang and Fourth Lady to only take martial arts lessons, but he still had to write ten big characters every day, and showed them to her every day; There are three extra big characters every day, and they must be shown to her.

Hui Lan was still in a panic at first, but she forgot after hearing the old lady's series of instructions.Being so down-to-earth as the old man ordered, in itself represents her confidence.Find the most suitable thing for everyone, so that everyone has no energy to think about it.Even if the eldest lady fell ill, with the eldest daughter who will be the crown princess and the precious son of Duke Zhen Guo in the future, she probably has little chance to think wildly.And at this time, it is better to be still than to move, and the situation is unknown, so it is most taboo to play the piano indiscriminately.

Therefore, although the news of the improvement of the family has not yet come, the mansion is as stable as an old dog from top to bottom, and no one does anything superfluous.The old lady would definitely explain everything to her uncle and servants, Hui Lan had no doubts.Those who do great things will not ignore any small details, after all, details determine success or failure.

Taking ten thousand steps back, even if the Duke... the Duke's Mansion is still there, and the eldest lady, the quasi-princess, is there, the impact on the Gu family will be minimized.The royal family can't keep their mouths shut. They just expressed their intention to marry someone else's girl.Then, because your father died for your heavenly family, he was injured and could no longer lead troops or even died in battle, and you regretted it.Hooligans can't even do this!

If there are really bad results, the eldest lady's crown princess will definitely be safe.And in the long run, this may not be the advantage of the Gu family.After all, which old emperor can accommodate an in-law with a heavy soldier in his hand?And according to the news reported by Uncle Li these few times, the emperor's health is average. It is said that he has been ill for two times since the Chinese New Year.Of course it's a minor ailment, but who knows for sure.

The only bad thing is that Gao Pinghou took the position of lieutenant general.Hui Lan only felt that it was bad luck, the Gaoping Hou Mansion and Zhenguo Gong Mansion were indeed a bit guilty.In the future, we should pay more attention to get along with each other. Why is this so small? Is there no one in the whole Daqin, or the emperor is lame...

After the brainstorming, Hui Lan poohed several times and patted the wooden table several times.Broken thoughts in my heart, Grandpa, I really didn't curse you, Tong Yanwuji, the puppy farts.Don't care about the gods of the past, she didn't say anything.

God bless, the good news came later that the Duke was only injured.Now that he is on his way back to Beijing, and he has made military exploits, the cloud over the Gu family has finally completely dissipated.Coupled with the fact that the eldest lady has received a formal marriage decree, the wedding date has been set.Don't talk about the clouds now, the Gu family is really sunny, and spring is back to the earth.With so much good news, Mrs. Madam has a happy event, of course she recovered quickly.

Fortunately, the old lady was stable, and she was shining without letting the Gu family give some sunshine.The so-called not to be happy with things and not to be sad with oneself, the Gu family's reputation outside the world has been improved.
