The palace wall reflects the moon

Chapter 49
Qin Gu didn't understand why she said "thank you" and didn't ask much. He just sighed and said: "God fell into the mortal world and was as humble as dust. Mortals can finally step on him and blaspheme his former nobility... So, The world loves to see God fall.”

Xin Wei turned her head, not wanting to look into his compassionate and caring eyes, which made her heart become even more miserable.

"From a grassroots background, in just ten years, he has been able to reach the point where he is favored by both the government and the public. Mr. Jiang Chang is definitely a hero. I admire him very much." Qin Gu said sincerely, "It's a pity."

He was born into a distinguished family, and had been well-fed and well-fed since he was a child. He had never worked hard to gain a future, but he admired capable people the most.

Xin Wei composed herself and raised her glass to him in turn: "If you can stand out among the countless children of the Qin family and become the head of the Qin family, you must have extraordinary talents."

"Not necessarily."

Qin Gu was not being self-effacing, it was because his cousins ​​had so many outstanding children that he could not be more ordinary.He can be the head of the family simply because he is his father's only legitimate son.

There was a table of delicious food, but Qin Gu loved the plate of peanuts. He ate it in his mouth and looked at her with an inquiring gaze, "My spies said Jiang Qingyue has a bad temper, does not have the demeanor of a noble lady, and is not gentle and generous at all."

Xin Wei said: "Your spies can't make mistakes."

"But I see you are quite normal. Your posture and behavior are nothing like that of a noble lady," Qin Gu asked curiously, "What is the demeanor of a noble lady?"

Xin Wei chuckled and said, "I don't understand."

Most of the time, he smiles without showing his teeth, speaks without speaking loudly, behaves in a gentle manner, and does not express emotions or anger. He is just too reserved and boring at all times.

Her father often told her, daughter, don’t worry about it so much, as long as you are happy, daddy.Her mother also spoiled her and never said anything was wrong with her.

Over time, she thought that life was inherently so arbitrary and she could do whatever she wanted.

"Let the women in my backyard discuss this with you tomorrow."

"It's not necessary."

"They were very interested when they heard that someone from Jinling City was coming, but I said you were a concubine in the civil servants' palace. Remember not to let it slip."

"Row."

Drinking wine, eating food, and having a great time chatting.

When the wine pot was half full, Qin Gu's cheeks were slightly tipsy and he burped. He glanced at the table and saw that only one plate of mutton was untouched, so he gave her a piece of mutton in a hospitable manner.

Xin Wei hesitated and tasted it.

Qin Gu looked at her with his chin on his face, heaved a long sigh, and said in a persuasive tone: "The emperor is helpless. He has just ascended the throne, his foundation is unstable, and many things cannot be controlled."

Xin Wei nodded.

It is not impossible for the emperor to save his father, but now this treatment is more secure.

She didn't understand it at all, and so did Shen Shuning.

It's just that I am unwilling to accept the result obediently and not fight.

"There is no need to think about going back to Jinling," Qin Gu said sincerely, "Gusu is much better than Jinling."

For fear that she would misunderstand, he explained: "I don't mean to tell you to be my concubine with all your heart. People in places like Jinling are cannibals. If you are not careful, you will be doomed. This is also the reason why my ancestor of the Qin family decided to leave the court. "

Leaving the court does not mean leaving the officialdom completely. Officials of the Qin family, large and small, are entrenched everywhere. If the head of the family stands up and raises his arms, people from all over will respond.

In recent years, the Qin family has not done nothing. They have donated military funds and provided relief for several natural disasters. The imperial court is very satisfied with the Qin family, and the people are also full of praise.

Xin Wei said sincerely: "The fact that the Qin family has been able to stand out for hundreds of years must be due to the foresight of the successive family heads."

"That's natural!"

Speaking of his ancestors, Qin Gu became excited, "My ancestors were all very powerful people! For example, my great-grandfather..."

While drinking, he talked endlessly from his great-great-grandfather to his grandfather and then to his father, suddenly feeling heartbroken. "My grandfather was a wise man, but he was not good at choosing people. He actually chose an idle man like my father. My father was only in his [-]s. He actually gave up his career and went to travel with my mother. He took over such a big family. Give it to me!! Our Qin family is really inferior to every generation!"

……

Waking up from her dream, Xin Wei recalled the last time she saw Qin Gu, before leaving Gusu for Jinling.

A woman from Gusu was summoned to Jinling by the Queen. Qin Gu naturally got the news and came to see her: "I can help you get rid of the Queen's people."

"Thanks, no need."

Qin Gu looked at her in disbelief. Seeing the determination in her eyes, he was shocked and said sincerely: "Ms. Cao regarded you as a thorn in her side back then. Now she wants to find you. Don't you worry that she will kill you soon?" ?”

Xin Wei said: "I should also go to the Dragon Pond and the Tiger's Den."

She had "died" three years ago. In the past three years, she had fulfilled her duty as a dead person and was not a threat to the Queen's position. Now that she is suddenly looking for her in a big way, it may not be to kill her quietly. Probability is for exploitation.

Her identity is indeed useful to the queen.

Seeing that Qin Gu really didn't understand, Xin Wei explained: "Meng Zhen has been favored for three years, and her reputation far exceeds that of the queen. The queen has no heirs, so she is naturally afraid of Concubine Hui. The queen is looking for me this time, probably because of Sharing favors with Concubine Hui in order to frustrate Concubine Hui's spirit."

Qin Gu sneered: "Is she stupid? Aren't you afraid of being overpowered by you in turn?"

"She is not stupid. She knows that with my status, I will never be the queen and cannot replace her."

Xin Wei paused and her eyes darkened slightly, "Besides, she thought I didn't know what she did, and thought I only hated Meng Zhen."

"You are too stubborn." Qin Gu earnestly advised, "You know... the emperor may not miss your old friendship. If you go to Jinling, even if you don't die in the hands of the Meng family and the Cao family, you may still be executed secretly by the emperor. Once you go, Do you understand that you will survive a narrow escape?"

Although Qin Gu seems cynical and not doing his job properly, he always sees the situation clearly at critical moments and is very practical.

Xin Wei thought to herself, if this is the case, then she will turn into a ghost and go to hell to haunt him.

"Even if I die, I will die in Jinling. Fallen leaves return to their roots."

Seeing how stubborn she was, Qin Gu couldn't persuade her. He took a deep breath, bowed his hands and said, "Take care."

At that time, what she never expected was that the queen was not looking for Jiang Qingyue at all, but a substitute like Jiang Qingyue.
-
On the eighth day of hunting in Jiu Ming Mountain, Chu Ying took Xin Wei to sit in Liu Qingshu's house when she had some free time.

"Sister Concubine Liu, the emperor should make you the queen, right?"

Chu Ying always said something in front of Liu Qingshu and Xin Wei.

It is inevitable that the Queen will be deposed.

The one with the highest status now is Concubine Meng Hui, but Concubine Meng Hui is still unconscious and cannot get into the lower position.

Concubine Liu had the highest position and had the authority to manage the six palaces. Not to mention that Chu Ying thought she would be the queen, and the other concubines also thought so.

Liu Qingshu stuffed her mouth with a piece of apricot cake: "You must never say such words again."

Chu Ying took the apricot blossom cake and asked Xin Wei: "That's how it is, what do you think?"

Xin Wei had a vague feeling that the emperor would not let the daughter of a military general become the queen. This was the emperor's consideration when he made Meng Zhen his concubine and Cao Qing his queen.

But she didn't dare to say this, for fear of spoiling the fun, so she said perfunctorily: "Everyone said so, we are inseparable. Congratulations to Sister Liu Fei first."

Liu Qingshu glanced at Xin Wei, and then said: "Zhang Zhaoyi accompanied the king on the first two nights, and Tong Shi made two notes."
