happy match

At the moment in Shunyi Hall, the atmosphere is a little tense.

Dingguo Gong Gu Xiuhe sat on the bench with a deep expression on his face.Sitting next to him, Mrs. Sun frowned, and said to her son and daughter-in-law with a little displeasure: "This is not a small matter, and we need to think about it in the long run."

Mrs. Zheng sneered secretly in her heart.Sun's love for Gu Xiyu was pretty good on weekdays, but at such a critical moment, her heart immediately turned to the Crown Prince and Queen Gu.What else can be discussed in the long run, she will not agree to this marriage.

Mrs. Zheng didn't say anything, but just glanced at her husband Gu Hong.

Gu Hong received a hint from Mrs. Zheng, coughed and said: "Mother, Yu'er is still young, don't worry about getting married for now, let's talk about it later!"

Sun raised her eyebrows: "Yu'er is already thirteen, so she's not too young. Besides, since she's the matchmaker personally secured by the empress, it won't be bad!"

Mrs. Zheng couldn't help hearing this, and said calmly: "That Shen Chang'an is already twenty this year, seven years older than Yu'er. He is another martial artist with a scar on his face. No matter how you look at it Doesn't seem like a good match!" Although generals are also courtiers, in the eyes of honorable families who value poetry and book heirlooms, most generals are vulgar and unrefined.

Mrs. Sun choked for a moment, and her face was a little ugly.

There was silence.

In normal times, Mrs. Zheng would never speak to Mrs. Sun in such a tone.After all, Mrs. Sun is a mother-in-law, and as a daughter-in-law, no matter how unhappy she is in her heart, she can't show it at will.But now it's about her daughter's lifelong event, no matter how good-tempered Mrs. Zheng is, she can't help it.

Gu Hong saw that Mrs. Sun's complexion was ugly.I was a little uneasy in my heart, and my tone became softer: "Please calm down, mother, I know that the empress is also out of kindness, but..."

The anger in Sun's heart finally found an outlet, and she snorted lightly: "Just what? Hui Niang is your biological sister and Yu'er's biological aunt. Could it be that she will harm Yu'er?" Empress Gu's boudoir name was also called out.

Gu Hong replied embarrassingly: "Mom, calm down, that's not what I meant..."

"Then what do you mean?" Mrs. Sun didn't even look at her daughter-in-law.Just sneered at Gu Hong: "You don't know how Hui Niang has survived in the palace for so many years. This is such a good opportunity. It can not only find a good marriage for Yu'er, but also help the prince Win the support of the Mighty General's Mansion. What's wrong with killing two birds with one stone?"

Even though Gu Hong was good at speaking, he couldn't use it well with Mrs. Sun.Suddenly retreating steadily: "Mother's thinking is indeed reasonable...."

Mrs. Zheng had a bad sense, so she immediately took over the conversation: "The mother-in-law loves the queen and the empress loves the prince, don't you love Yu'er? Yu'er has been withdrawn and weak-tempered since she was a child, and she dare not meet strangers, even if others speak louder. I will be afraid. That Shen Chang'an doesn't know a lot of Chinese characters. Try to practice fighting and killing. If Yu'er really marries Shen Chang'an, how will she live in the future? Instead of waiting for regret in the future, it is better to politely refuse now , but it doesn’t hurt peace.”

She has been married into the mansion for so many years, she has always been gentle and humble, and it is almost rare for her to argue hard like today.But every sentence makes sense, and the blocked person can't speak.

Mrs. Sun finally turned from embarrassment into anger, and looked at Mrs. Zheng with a straight face: "Who said I don't love Yu'er anymore? The crown prince is my grandson, but Yu'er is my own granddaughter. Naturally, I love Yu'er more. The married girl should be married, and Yu'er has reached the age to talk about marriage. Having such a marriage is already considered good."

Some words need not be said, and everyone present knows it well.With Gu Xiyu's withdrawn and introverted personality, finding a suitable marriage is not easy.Shen Changan's conditions in all aspects are barely passable.If it were a handsome young nobleman who had read poetry and books, he might not be willing to come to ask Gu Xiyu to marry him.

Mrs. Zheng's complexion changed slightly after hearing this.The anger in my heart surged up.

In the final analysis, the Sun family is still on the side of Queen Gu and the crown prince.In order to win help for the prince, he did not hesitate to use Gu Xiyu as a pawn...

Ding Guogong Gu Xiuhe, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke out: "Okay, you all stop talking."

As soon as he spoke, Mrs. Sun and Mrs. Zheng immediately stopped talking.They looked at the past in unison.Let's see how he behaves now!

Gu Xiuhe has gray hair and beard, and a gentle and amiable face. He looks like a kind old man.But those who are familiar with his temper know how shrewd and sophisticated he is under his gentle appearance.Gu Xiuhe is not only relying on the power of Empress Gu and the Crown Prince to support Dingguo's mansion in the capital for so many years and even become more and more prosperous.

Mrs. Zheng complained a lot about her mother-in-law, Mrs. Sun, but she respected and feared this father-in-law.I prayed secretly in my heart, no matter what, he would not nod his head in agreement.If he nodded, Gu Hong would not dare to object again.With meager strength alone, how can I protect Yu'er?

Gu Chuhe was not in a hurry to express his opinion, thought for a moment, and asked lightly: "Zheng Shi, you met Shen Chang'an yesterday, tell me about his temperament."

Mrs. Zheng thought for a while, and answered the question truthfully: "The appearance is not bad, and the temperament is straightforward...and very enthusiastic. It's just that I haven't read many books, and I have been in the military camp all year round, and my speech is a bit vulgar. Some." These things can be known with a little investigation, and there is no need to lie.

Gu Xiuhe hummed, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes: "I have never met Shen Changan, but I am very familiar with Shen Ming. He is rough and bold, but there are subtleties in his roughness. He holds military power and is not self-respecting. He is highly regarded by the Holy Majesty. His son should not be sent anywhere..."

Mrs. Zheng's heart sank when she heard these words.

What does the father-in-law mean by that?Could it be that he, like the Sun family, disregarded Yu'er's lifelong happiness for the sake of Queen Gu and the crown prince?

As a daughter-in-law, the father-in-law should never interrupt when he is talking.But Mrs. Zheng was really anxious and anxious, so she plucked up the courage to intervene and said: "Father-in-law, please forgive my daughter-in-law for being bold. It is related to Yu'er's lifelong happiness, and I hope my father-in-law will carefully consider it."

Gu Chuhe raised his eyebrows in surprise, feeling a little uncomfortable with his daughter-in-law's intense rejection, but he didn't accuse her of anything, he just said lightly: "Don't worry. Yu'er is my own granddaughter, There is no way I would agree to this so lightly."

Mrs. Zheng breathed a sigh of relief, but the smile didn't reach her eyes, she froze after hearing Gu Chuhe's next words: "I will have someone investigate Shen Chang'an's temperament and temper, as well as those who are in the barracks. Things. It’s not too late to talk about this matter after confirming these things.”

That is to say, Gu Chuhe intends to examine Shen Changan carefully to see if he is qualified to be the son-in-law of Ding Guogong and grandson!

When Sun heard this, she felt relieved, and said with a smile: "It's still the Duke who is considerate. If Shen Chang'an is really unsightly, then that's fine. Let's find another good marriage for Yu'er." Shen Changan is not bad, so naturally he can seriously consider getting married.

Mrs. Zheng's face turned pale, and she was about to say something when Gu Hong winked at her.

After being married for many years, she can naturally understand the meaning in Gu Hong's eyes.This is Gu Hong's hint to her not to say any more.Anyway, things haven't really been settled yet, so it won't be too late to slowly convince the two elders in the future.

Mrs. Zheng had no choice but to swallow her sullen breath.

At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded by the door: "Grandfather and grandmother, don't bother to investigate Shen Chang'an, I know his affairs very well. If you want to know anything, just ask me."

It was Gu Xinian who spoke.Probably because he didn't sleep well last night, Gu Xinian's complexion today was not pretty, and his tone was indifferent with a hint of gloom.

Gu Chuhe glanced at Gu Xinian calmly: "Oh? Really? When did you become so familiar with Shen Changan?"

Gu Xinian shrugged casually: "I'm not familiar with him at all, but I've heard a lot about him." In fact, he knew everything about Shen Changan like the back of his hand.

In his previous life, in order to deal with Shen Chang'an, he spent a lot of thought, and he had already figured out Shen Chang'an's life clearly.It's also one of his best habits.Familiar with the other party's temperament, find out the other party's shortcomings and make use of them, make decisions before acting, know yourself and the enemy, and you will be victorious in all battles.

Gu Chuhe glanced at Gu Xinian, and asked with a faint smile, "Then, according to your opinion, is this marriage okay or not?"

"Of course not." Gu Xinian blurted out without hesitation: "Shen Chang'an is reckless and impulsive, irritable and irritable, and will strike at the slightest upset. Yu'er is so delicate, how can she marry such a warrior."

Mrs. Zheng was mixed with joy and sorrow when she heard this.He was happy that his son was on his side, but worried because he was afraid that Gu Xinian would anger Gu Chuhe...

Facts have proved that Gu Chuhe's heart and self-cultivation are all top-notch, and he didn't have any special reaction after hearing this.

On the other hand, Mrs. Sun was a little displeased when she heard this: "How can you take it seriously." One exaggerated than the other, she couldn't believe it. The empress's favorite person must not be so bad!

Gu Xinian glanced at Mrs. Sun, as if he saw what Mrs. Sun was thinking, and twitched the corners of his lips sarcastically: "According to grandma, should I agree to this marriage? As long as Yu'er marries Shen Mansion, Shen Ming will naturally stand by His Highness the Crown Prince, and His Highness the Crown Prince no longer needs to be afraid of His Highness the Third Prince..."

Sun's face suddenly changed.

Gu Hong rushed to reprimand: "Xinian, don't talk nonsense." Talking to elders like this is simply disrespectful!

Gu Xinian's eyes flashed, and he suddenly smiled slowly: "Since you don't want to hear the truth, then I don't mind telling you."

Sun's face turned pale from anger, and her body trembled slightly: "You...you want to anger me on purpose!"

Gu Xinian replied indifferently and politely: "Grandmother misunderstood, I never meant that." You are narrow-minded and angry, how can you blame me! (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
