happy match

Gu Xinian raised his eyebrows, and smiled calmly: "Thank you grandfather for giving me a year to 'adapt' to court affairs. From today onwards, within a year, please don't worry about my marriage anymore."

Gu Xinian naturally knew what Gu Xiuhe was thinking.However, such a proposal is also in his mind.After one more year, he can also arrange arrangements calmly.When the time comes...the granddaughter-in-law Ye Qinglan, they will have no choice but to deny it!

The grandparents and grandchildren all had their own thoughts, and all showed meaningful smiles.

The Sun family on the side didn't understand Gu Chuhe's intentions in doing so, and hurriedly winked at Gu Chuhe.

Gu Chuhe turned a blind eye, chatted casually with Gu Hong and Gu Xinian, and then let them separate.As soon as Gu Xinian left, Mrs. Sun opened her mouth in a hurry and said, "Didn't we discuss it originally? This time, no matter what, we have to let Xinian nod and agree to this marriage. Why did you suddenly change your mind?"

In vain, it will be delayed for another year!

Gu Chuhe glanced at Mrs. Sun, and said calmly: "You saw his appearance just now. If you don't use this tactic of delaying the attack, do you really think he is willing to listen to you and me?"

Mrs. Sun thought about it for a while and sure enough, she couldn't help but said bitterly: "This Xi Nian is really spoiled all over. Whose family's marriage is not decided by the elders, but when he comes to him, he loses his stature. We have to act according to his face. He is not young, so he is still not sure about the marriage, not only delaying himself, but also delaying Yongnian's marriage."

Seniors and children are orderly, Gu Xinian never decides on marriage.Gu Yongnian had to wait.

Gu Chuhe frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Okay, wait another year. Fortunately, Shengnian has already married a wife and had children, and Xinian will be later. As for Yongnian, he idles around all day, reading If you refuse to work hard, don’t spoil him all the time in the future. Restrain his temper well. Don’t let people laugh at us for having unworthy descendants in Dingguo’s mansion.”

Mrs. Sun immediately spoke for Gu Yongnian: "Yongnian is still young, there is no certainty, and he will get better in the future." After a pause, he brought the topic back to Gu Xinian: "Xinian insists on not getting married, so why not?" You must still be thinking about girl Qiuyu! It's been five years..."

"It's a pity that you have the nerve to mention this." Gu Yu gave her a displeased look: "It was your idea that day, you only cared about the prince, and didn't think that Xinian was also a seed of infatuation. For that Shen Qiuyu, the whole thing was abandoned Fortunately, I finally figured it out last year. I am willing to enter the court. Otherwise, who will our Dingguo Mansion be handed over to in the future?"

Speaking of this, Mrs. Sun always felt a little bit wrong, and explained embarrassingly: "At that time, the prince knelt in front of me and begged me to help me, how could I refuse. I didn't expect Xi Nian to have such a big reaction."

If she had known that so many things would happen later, she would not have made such a decision.

Thing of the past.It is useless to say.Gu Yuhe quickly put the matter aside, and told Sun a few words: "Xinian is now a serious servant of the household department. He is busy with court affairs every day, and he has to assist His Royal Highness and the third prince in the court. Next, don't bother him with these things for the time being."

Mrs. Sun agreed reluctantly.

In Jingxin Garden, Gu Hongzheng frowned and reprimanded Gu Xinian: "...You are really getting more and more courageous, and you don't know how to respect and humility when talking to your grandparents. Fortunately, you have read a lot of sage books, and even filial piety I don't understand..."

Gu Xinian did not argue.

If he is really filial at all, he doesn't understand.He will not compromise to become an official, let alone force himself to get close to the prince.

Empress Gu was born in Dingguo Gongfu.Dingguo's mansion has long been tied to the prince's boat.If the crown prince is defeated, Dingguo's mansion will not have a good ending.In his previous life, he was blinded by hatred and turned a blind eye to this fact.Helped the third prince to fight against the prince, but in the end, the cunning rabbit died, and the third prince turned around and attacked him.The illustrious Dingguo Mansion was destroyed almost overnight.

After living a new life, he will naturally not make these mistakes again.Even if he doesn't want to see the prince anymore in his heart, he still wants to stand by the prince's side and use the power of the prince to deal with the third prince.Doing this is not only to avenge the past life, but also to protect everyone in Dingguo Mansion.

It's a pity that only he knows this, but his family members don't know anything about it.

Gu Hong was originally full of anger, but it could be seen that Gu Xinian was being scolded in silence, but his heart softened, and he sighed and said, "Xinian, I know you still have resentment towards grandma in your heart. But that incident has passed for so long , can't you completely forget about it?" In order not to irritate Gu Xinian, he didn't even mention Shen Qiuyu's name.

Gu Xinian twitched the corners of his lips, but his eyes were cold: "Father, if I told you that I have forgotten how my grandmother and the prince treated me, would you believe me?" One was his most beloved grandmother. One is his cousin, whom he regards as his own brother, but they teamed up to do such a thing behind his back.No matter how much Shen Qiuyu played a role in it, what they did was chilling enough.

He's never been big-hearted.For the sake of future plans, he can temporarily endure hypocrisy and obedience.But it's impossible for him not to mind at all.Up to now, he is willing to call grandma and prince cousin, which is not bad.

Gu Hong was speechless.The father and son, who had similar faces, faced each other silently.

Mrs. Zheng hurriedly came forward to smooth things over: "Okay, it's getting late, we have to go to court tomorrow, so let's rest early! We'll discuss things later. Anyway, there is still a year to go, and Xi Nian's marriage There's no rush for now." While talking, he winked at Gu Xinian again and again.

Gu Xinian opened his mouth to leave, Gu Hong sighed and waved him away.

After Gu Xinian left, the couple's long beards and short sighs will not be mentioned for the time being.It is only said that Gu Xinian, after returning to Izumo Pavilion, stayed in the study alone until midnight, and did not sleep until midnight.I don't even know what a person is thinking.

Quan Fu waited anxiously outside the study, and finally boldly knocked on the door of the study: "My lord, it's getting late, you should also rest.

After a while, Gu Xinian finally responded.

Silent all night.

In the early morning of the next day, the three grandparents and grandchildren of Duke Ding's Mansion left the mansion together to go to court before dawn.In the morning court every five days, it is inevitable that there will be a lot of things to be decided.Officials above the second rank are eligible to speak at any time.Those of the third rank and below also have to listen and think carefully, in case the emperor asks questions suddenly.

In this way, the spirit has been tense until the morning is over, which is almost noon.

The prince was a little tired, but he didn't hide his excitement. He patted Gu Xinian's shoulder affectionately, and said with a low laugh: "Xinian, what you said just now was really wonderful. It puts that Qian Shilang in the dark. You didn't notice that the third brother couldn't even laugh."

That Qian Shilang is the third prince's faction.He wanted to win the praise of the emperor when he played the reform of the land tax in the court, but was rendered speechless by Gu Xinian's incisive and sharp remarks, and it became a joke of the court.By the way, the third prince was also disgraced.It was strange that the third prince would laugh out loud.

Gu Xinian resisted the urge to pull away and leave, and said with a calm smile: "His Royal Highness has praised you. The emperor asked about Tian Fu, and I will naturally report them one by one."

Hubu Shangshu is not young, and he will retire in two years. He pretends to be deaf and dumb on weekdays, and remains neutral in party disputes.Gu Xinian and that servant Qian belonged to the prince's direct lineage and the third prince's faction, and they fought openly and secretly on weekdays.The verbal dispute in the court today is just the tip of the iceberg.

While the prince was in a good mood, he warmly asked Gu Xinian to have lunch in the palace before leaving: "...The queen mother has not seen you for a while, and she always talks about you in front of me these days. It's rare to be free today, let's go to Fenghuang together. Hall of Fame!" The two grew up together since they were young, and they have always talked very casually together, and the crown prince even omitted calling himself the king.

Gu Xinian wanted to refuse at first, but after thinking about it, he smiled and nodded again.

Seeing that he agreed so readily, the prince was naturally happy.

Ever since Shen Qiuyu married into the Prince's Mansion five years ago, the two who used to be as close as brothers suddenly broke off contact.In the past few years, although it has been a joy to be accompanied by a beautiful woman, every time I think of this matter, I feel quite uncomfortable.However, it is finally good now.The two were back to their old intimacy—or so he thought.To him, Gu Xinian was not only a capable helper, but also a close brother, and the two of them almost talked about everything.

However, the name Shen Qiuyu naturally became a taboo.The two of them kept silent in a tacit agreement.

Out of the corner of his eye, Gu Xinian glanced at the radiant and happy prince, and sneered secretly in his heart.No one knows Zhao 〉's temperament better than him. He is more than generous, but his ability is very mediocre, and his ears are soft.Compared with the shrewd third prince, he was far worse.If he hadn't taken advantage of the eldest son, he wouldn't be the third prince's opponent at all.

However, for him, the more mediocre the prince, the better.Otherwise, Empress Gu wouldn't rely on him so much...

"Cousin," Gu Xinian smiled and changed his name, looking very intimate and casual: "Brother Ming is white and fat, can you hug him?"

These slightly joking words quickly drew the distance between the two of them.The prince is a father for the first time, so he is naturally happy when he mentions Brother Ming: "Don't underestimate me, I will hug me for a while when I go home every day."

When mentioning Brother Ming, it is inevitable to mention Brother Ming's biological mother, Concubine Lin.Gu Xinian tentatively said calmly: "Biao sister-in-law is not in good health, and it may be a bit difficult to take care of brother Ming. Lin is brother Ming's biological mother, if she takes care of brother Ming together, cousin can breathe a sigh of relief. "

The prince did not doubt that he was there, and smiled casually: "I have never asked about these small things in the house. Let your cousin arrange it." (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to recommend it Tickets, monthly tickets, your support is my biggest motivation.)
