happy match

A trace of mockery flashed in Gu Xinian's eyes.

Fortunately, the crown prince had the face to boast, saying that he didn't care about the affairs of the inner house, he simply did not distinguish between wives and concubines, holding Shen Qiuyu in his palm and pampering him, the majestic crown princess Mo Shi became a decoration of the crown prince's mansion.

Whenever he thought about these things in his previous life, he only felt anger and jealousy in his heart.But thinking about it now, there is only a trace of pity.The prince, like him in his previous life, was deceived by the charming Shen Qiuyu who is good at putting on airs.Mistaking a peerless poisonous flower for a rare treasure.

However, Concubine Lin, who just gave birth to brother Ming, can be considered as a noble mother, although she has not yet been able to compete with Shen Qiuyu.However, it was enough to become a thorn in Shen Qiuyu's eyes.

As long as he thinks about Shen Qiuyu's uncomfortable life, he will feel very happy.Therefore, from time to time, I mentioned brother Ming in front of the prince, just to let the prince's heart gradually turn to the child.

Seeing that Fengyi Hall was outside, Gu Xinian suddenly stopped in his tracks, and said in a low voice: "Cousin, I have something to ask you."

The prince replied without hesitation: "You are still so polite with me. If you don't ask for anything, just talk about it. I will definitely promise you."

Gu Xinian raised his eyebrows, and asked slowly: "Really? Whatever I ask you, will you promise me?"

The meaning in the words is so profound that it makes people's heart skip a beat.

The prince smiled, and a ridiculous thought suddenly flashed in his mind.Gu Xinian...Could it be that he asked him to return Shen Qiuyu to him...Bah, bah, bah, nothing!The two of them didn't have a formal engagement that day, and when he married Shen Qiuyu, he married Shen Qiuyu in a fair and honest way.He neither stole nor robbed, so what is there to be guilty of?Besides, it's impossible for Gu Xinian to make such a ridiculous request!

The prince collected himself, suppressed the guilt and uneasiness in his heart, and said with a smile: "Then I have to listen carefully, what do you want from me?" After all, he didn't dare to pat his chest and say yes.

Gu Xinian's thoughts on the prince were as clear as a mirror, a trace of ridicule flashed in his eyes, but he lowered his voice: "It's a long story, so I'll just talk about it briefly! I'll see you later. I want to ask my aunt to give me a decree, allowing me to make independent decisions on life-long affairs in the future. When the time comes, you have to help me intercede."

This matter has been planned in Gu Xinian's mind for a long time.

Ye Qinglan's status as a concubine is indeed a big trouble.However, it is not without solutions.If you start with grandparents, most of them will not nod.There will be a lot of trouble at that time.The cleanest way.It is to ask Queen Gu to order a marriage.With Empress Gu personally bestowing the marriage, Dingguo's family naturally has nothing to say, no matter how reluctant they are, they have to happily prepare for the wedding.

For women, the queen's bestowal of marriage is a supreme honor.In the future when Ye Qinglan marries into Duke Dingguo's mansion, no one will dare to make irresponsible remarks about her status as a concubine.

The most critical question now is, how can we persuade Empress Gu to make such an edict?

If you let Queen Gu arrange it.I'm afraid that he will betroth a noble girl like Zhang Yue to him without hesitation.Just in time to win another help for the prince.Therefore, he must throw enough bait.Empress Gu's heart can only be moved by more tangible benefits than marriage.

In his previous life, he was a member of the Third Prince's faction, so he naturally knew what the Third Prince was doing secretly.Now, all these have become his most favorable weapon.As long as the arrangements are made properly, it will be enough for the Third Prince to fall hard.If this information is revealed to Queen Gu for a little bit, she will definitely make the wisest choice.

When you open your mouth.It is also very important to have someone on the sidelines to intercede.The prince is the perfect candidate.He is almost 100% sure that the prince will definitely promise himself!

The crown prince was taken aback by Gu Xinian's words: "You...why did you come up with such an idea all of a sudden? Is it because Grandpa and the others forced you to get married?"

Gu Xinian hummed.He said lightly: "To tell you the truth, they always want me to marry the young lady of the British government. However, I don't want to, so I want to ask my aunt to order."

Why not?This sentence almost blurted out, and finally swallowed it back in time.The prince's expression was slightly embarrassed.

Is there even a question?Gu Xinian has been refusing to marry, of course because of Shen Qiuyu... Thinking about it further, isn't he the culprit?

Gu Xinian didn't need to think too much, he knew what the prince was thinking, and said with a calm smile, "I'll tell my cousin, in fact, I already have someone I like."

The prince only felt his temples throbbing wildly, and he raised his heart unconsciously: "Oh? Who is it?"

However, Gu Xinian refused to say it clearly, and only smiled: "You don't know this woman, and you don't know if you tell me. However, she is still young, so it won't be too late to get engaged next year."

The prince breathed a sigh of relief.No matter who it is, as long as it's not Shen Qiuyu!

"Since you like her, just tell your grandfather." The prince's tone suddenly became more relaxed: "Grandfather and the others have always hoped that you will get married as soon as possible, so there is no way they would disagree!"

Gu Xinian deliberately let out a long sigh: "If I were telling the truth, they would definitely not nod their heads in agreement. This woman's family status is not high, and she is a concubine."

This is really a problem.The crown prince also began to find it difficult, and was about to say something, when Gu Xinian said sincerely: "Cousin, you are a man of temperament. You should know what it's like to like a woman so anxiously. If I miss her, I will They will probably never get married again in their lifetime.”

Hearing this, the crown prince felt guilty and terrified, and immediately responded: "Okay, I'll just intercede for you later." Gu Xinian had better get married quickly, if he really didn't get married for the rest of his life, he would definitely do it too. Don't feel at ease.

A smile flashed in Gu Xinian's eyes: "Thank you, cousin." Everything was within his expectations, and the next step is the real hard battle.It is not that simple to convince Queen Gu.

Gu Xinian followed the crown prince into Fengyi Hall, and the maid quickly went to report to Queen Gu.

Empress Gu was in the side hall, and said with a smile: "Hurry up and let the prince and Gu Shilang come in." After a while, the prince, accompanied by Gu Xinian, walked in high-spirited, and the two saluted respectfully and greeted him.

Empress Gu pursed her lips and smiled, very kind and easy-going: "You don't need to be so polite, sit down and talk." Then she ordered the female officer beside her to go to the imperial dining room: "Let the imperial dining room cook some good dishes and bring them here. Today, the palace wants to keep the crown prince. Have dinner with Gu Shilang in Fengyi Hall."

After the maids served tea, Empress Gu smiled and asked the prince.Family affairs are just a few words, but more questions are about the affairs of the court.

According to the rules, the concubines in the palace are not allowed to interfere in the government affairs.Even the queen is no exception.But the harem has always been closely related to the affairs of the court.Empress Gu didn't ask questions on the surface, but in fact she didn't interfere much in private.

It is an indisputable fact that the prince's talent is mediocre. As a mother, even if she knows this, she has to do her best to plan for her son.The royal struggle has always been cruel, once lost, all the glory will be gone.Maybe even life is in danger.Therefore, Empress Gu has been trying her best to win over various forces for the prince.It's a pity that the emperor has always favored the talented third prince, and the courtiers are all good at figuring out the Sacred Heart's cunning, and no one is willing to place a bet lightly.Moreover, most of the people knew that the prince had a gentle temperament and mediocre talents, but on the contrary, there were more people who supported the third prince.

Queen Gu was secretly anxious, but there was nothing she could do.People's hearts want what everyone expects, and if they fall behind in this respect, it is really bad, and it will be difficult to recover.If one is not good, it will be even worse if the Sacred Heart is lost.Therefore, Queen Gu did not dare to act rashly.

However, since Gu Xinian became the servant of the household department last year, his brilliance could not be concealed, and he secretly planned for the prince, which brought back a lot of disadvantages.

After Queen Gu heard what happened in the hall today, she felt very happy.He smiled and praised: "Xinian, you did a good job."

Gu Xinian responded modestly: "My nephew dare not take the credit. In fact, all of this is due to my cousin. If he hadn't quietly reminded me of Qian Shilang's changes before, I wouldn't have come up with a countermeasure so quickly."

Such an intimate and easy-going title was also insisted on by Queen Gu.Gu Xinian rejected it a few times at first, but later he became disrespectful.

Empress Gu wanted to win him over with family affection, so he simply pushed the boat along, so that what he was going to say next could go smoothly.

After a few words of gossip, Gu Xinian brought up the matter that had been planned in his mind for a long time: "Auntie, His Royal Highness the Third Prince has always wanted to start with Tian Fu and make some achievements. Today in the court hall, what Qian Shilang said, In fact, it is just throwing stones to ask the way, to test the emperor's reaction. If my prediction is correct, the third prince should make some moves next."

He is naturally very clear about the subsequent development of the matter.Because in the previous life, it was he who really planned this matter for the third prince.The Tian Fu at this time did have various drawbacks. In his previous life, after painstakingly studying the policy of the Tian Fu, he came up with ways to improve it.Facts have proved that these methods are practical, and also reduce the burden on farmers who lease land in a disguised form.Agriculture is the foundation of the imperial court, and the collection of land taxes is also a major source of income for the imperial court, and its importance is self-evident.

Because of the success of the reform measures of Tian Fu, the third prince won a beautiful battle in the court.It also completely compared the mediocre and incompetent prince.

It's a pity that the third prince in this life can no longer have such good luck.Even if the third prince has good ideas, the clumsy and impulsive Qian Shilang is not good enough.

After hearing these words, Empress Gu was really refreshed, and immediately asked: "Then what should I do next?"

Gu Xinian smiled faintly, and suddenly changed the topic: "Auntie, my nephew came here today with the audacity to ask for something. I hope my aunt will agree." (To be continued.
