Spring Girl's Notes

Chapter 448

Except for Aunt Cheng who was serving, no one else knew about the conversation between the Queen Mother and Princess Sirou.

People in Beijing only know that Princess Sirou has officially become a monk, and she voluntarily asked the Queen Mother to remove her title of princess.

She doesn't want to be disturbed by the world anymore, and wants to be a clean person.

The queen mother agreed, and asked the prince of Jianguo to issue an imperial decree, removing the title of Princess Sirou.

It was this incident that caused quite a shock in Beijing.

There are many discussions among the meritorious families in Beijing.

Roughly speaking, it's a bit painful.

No matter how many people spend their entire lives, the title of a princess can't be changed. Prince Jian's mansion loses it as soon as it says it loses it.Sure enough, he is a real nobleman, born with grandeur.

But more, are guessing the reason.

No one is a fool, thinking that Prince Jian's Mansion is really so generous.

There must be other reasons for Princess Sirou's matter.

Therefore, someone vaguely heard that the Princess of Luyang, Mrs. Gu, went to offer sacrifices to Princess Jian, and Princess Sirou embarrassed Princess Luyang on the spot, and even made a move.

Could it be that what happened to Princess Sirou was only because of the queen mother's protection of Princess Luyang?

This maintenance is really frightening.

****

Gu Jinzhi also heard his mother talk about this matter.

Song Pan'er only heard about the dismissal of Princess Sirou's title, but no one mentioned about Gu Jinzhi in front of Song Pan'er.

Gu Jinzhi thought of how she went to the palace to file a complaint, so she could guess a little bit.

"... Princess Sirou used to be your second sister's sister-in-law. Your second sister has dealt with her for many years, and you know yourself and your enemy. I heard from your aunt. When your second sister mentioned this, she couldn't believe it and said A person like Princess Sirou is reluctant to bear her title of princess. No matter how pious she is, her nature is hard to change." Mother said to Gu Jinzhi.

Gu Jinzhi nodded, agreeing with her mother's words.

Then, Gu Jinzhi said again: "No one can bear it. However, people's hearts are unpredictable. Princess Sirou lost her husband a few years ago, and now she has lost her mother. It is possible to be depressed and understand the world of mortals for a while."

The mother was silent for a while, and did not refute Gu Jinzhi.

After a few days, I heard that the Empress Dowager personally issued a decree to order Jian Wangfu to build a nunnery for Sirou in the west of the city.For Sirou to practice.

The queen mother also gave the nunnery the name "Changxing Temple", and gave Sirou the name Master Huimian.

Princess Sirou became Mrs. Huimian.

Gu Jinzhi thought that Sirou must be unwilling.

And the queen mother is willing to kill Si Rou like this, no doubt she is guessing something.

Such speculation.It is beneficial to Gu Jinzhi and Zhu Zhongjun.

Gu Jinzhi remained silent and did not enter the palace again.

In a blink of an eye, it was July.

July in Beijing.The heat is unbearable.The sun is like a fire, roasting the world like a stove, and the flowers, plants and trees are dying.

Yanying practiced martial arts with Chen Dingwen and suffered from heatstroke.

Gu Jinzhi asked Chen Dingwen: "Should we stop for a while and learn after the Mid-Autumn Festival?"

Yanying was young, so she couldn't bear such arduous training.

But Chen Dingwen felt that martial arts should not be wasted for a day.

Especially children.Endurance is not enough.If a few days are wasted, he has tasted the sweetness.Will never be serious again.

Chen Dingwen knew that the princess loves the child, and he made sense, so he told Gu Jinzhi what he thought: "It's really hot in the daytime, and it's not suitable to practice martial arts outside. Fortunately, the boat hall in the outer courtyard is spacious and cool, so the princess might as well pack it up and change it to The place where the second young master practiced martial arts..."

Gu Jinzhi thought for a while, and said, "That's fine, I'll ask someone to clean it up today."

Chen Dingwen quickly thanked him.

He knew that Gu Jinzhi supported him and respected him, so he became more serious about teaching Yanying.

Yanying practiced martial arts alone, and she didn't cry too much, which Gu Jinzhi was quite pleased with.

On July 21st, it was the birthday of Gu Jinzhi's third son, Yan Shao.

Yan Shao is already two years old.

Compared with his two elder brothers, he is more mischievous and lively, even worse than Yanying.Gu Jinzhi took him with him personally, and sometimes he was so exhausted that he was out of breath.

A two-year-old child, innocent and romantic, he loves whoever treats him well.

Gu Jinzhi didn't want to miss any of the child's growth, he didn't want the child to only know the wet nurse and not her as the biological mother, so he would rather be troubled and spend time with the child every day.

Yan Shao is also close to Gu Jin.

Gu Jinzhi's belly grew bigger day by day, and sometimes her back was sore. The maids and servants were frightened, and all of them advised her to rest more.

"It's okay, I know my own body. Like peasant women, with such a big belly, they still have to go to work in the fields." Gu Jinzhi smiled, "It's easier when you're tired."

The maids and servants thought to themselves, how can this princess compare herself to a peasant woman?Even the little maids in this mansion are somewhat more noble than the peasant women, let alone the princes and concubines?

The more Gu Jinzhi compares like this, the more people don't know how to persuade him.

A few servants, no more words.

On the evening before Yan Shao's birthday, it rained heavily.

On the morning of the 21st, the weather was full of sweetness and coolness.

The green leaves on the treetops are washed by the rain, the dust falls off, and the green leaves become greener.It is crisp to the eye and adds a bit of coolness.

In midsummer, such weather is rare.

Today, there are also a few clouds in the sky, which weaken the heat of the scorching sun.

Gu Jinzhi didn't invite relatives and friends, but just cooked a bowl of longevity noodles, invited his parents and brothers, and ate with the children.

Song Pan'er gave Yan Shao a gift.

A pair of gold locks and two pairs of small gold bracelets.

Gu Yanzhen gave some things for painting red.

Brother Xuan, Xiao Shi and Xiao Shi gave Yan Shao toys.

After eating longevity noodles in the morning, Gu Jinzhi brought Yanying and Yanshao into the palace to greet the empress dowager.

It was more than six months since the Queen Mother saw the children again.

The queen mother felt that the children grew up very fast.

Especially Yanying, who has grown a lot taller.

As for Yanying, she has changed a lot since she was a toddler in the first month of the lunar year, and she is now articulate.

There was water in the eyes of the Queen Mother, and Yan Shao and Yan Ying came to her.I looked and looked, and I couldn't get enough of it.

She also asked Yanshan.

Gu Jinzhi told the truth.

The queen mother was a little worried, so she just asked: "Mr. Lin, is it reliable?"

Gu Jinzhi reassured: "Mr. Lin is very reliable..."

The Queen Mother was relieved.

Yan Shao was a little anxious and wanted to hide.

Yanying is very familiar with the Queen Mother.

He said to the Queen Mother: "Grandmother, I often think of you..."

Even Gu Jinzhi was a little surprised by this statement.

She didn't teach Yanying what to say.

Yanying really missed the Queen Mother.He didn't live long in the palace, the queen mother treated him very well, the intimacy in his blood nature made Yanying like the queen mother very much.

Later, he didn't enter the palace very much.It was Zhu Zhongjun who specifically told him that it was inconvenient to enter the palace, but he didn't make a fuss.

He missed the queen mother from the bottom of his heart.

The Empress Dowager's eyes became slightly moist and hot,

"Good boy, good boy..." The Empress Dowager hugged Yanying.Repeatedly.She didn't doubt the authenticity of Yanying's words at all, but was very moved.

At the age of the empress dowager, she probably has no defense against her children and grandchildren, right?

Or, the Empress Dowager never set up defenses against Gu Jinzhi and Zhu Zhongjun...

In Gu Jin's heart.Feeling a little guilty.

She stood there without making a sound.

The Queen Mother gave Yan Shao a birthday present.They stayed in the palace for another night.

Concubine De also brought King Jin to see them.

King Jin was very awkward, didn't look at Yanying very much, and was very angry.

He was still thinking about what happened last time.

Yanying ignored King Jin.

Children also hold grudges.

The queen mother just smiled.

Concubine De is a little embarrassed.

Sitting with the Queen Mother, Gu Jinzhi left the child in Renshou Palace and sent Concubine De back to Jinghe Palace. The two sisters chatted along the way.

"Has the prince been away from Beijing for some time?" Concubine De asked Gu Jinzhi.

Gu Jinzhi nodded.

Concubine De asked her again what was going on outside.

"...There hasn't been anything interesting recently. The most talked about in Beijing. It's Princess Sirou—now she should be called Mrs. Huimian." Gu Jinzhi said, "Her affairs are talked about by the world. Yes, I've heard it often."

"I've also heard about it." Concubine De said to Gu Jinzhi in a low voice, "It's also a merit for her to be able to realize the world of mortals..."

Concubine De didn't elaborate further.

The sisters understood.

When they arrived at Jinghe Palace, Concubine De suddenly sent out all the attendants, leaving only Gu Jinzhi to speak.

She had something private to say to Gu Jinzhi.

This made Gu Jinzhi a little panicked.Now that she is pregnant, she may not have the energy to help Concubine De.

Gu Jinzhi thought about it in his heart, and then organized a tactful rejection, no matter what Concubine De asked of her.

"... Your majesty has gone to the northwest. The crown prince means that everything in the palace must continue as usual, otherwise the world will speculate that the war will be unfavorable, and people will panic. The third princess is already 13 years old, and the crown prince will go to the Ministry of Rites to choose her son-in-law. This One thing, you bring me a message to my uncle and aunt, and let them pay attention to the candidate. The eldest princess will not marry well..." Concubine De was worried when she mentioned these words.

In this era, the law stipulated that in the marriage of the princess, the beautiful one among the folk children should be chosen as the son-in-law, and the children of civil and military ministers were not allowed to marry the princess.Therefore, when a princess gets married, it is called "marrying down", which means a gift.

The eldest princess' mother concubine is Concubine Zhang Shu.

The Zhang family had already been exiled to Lingnan because of their conspiracy.

The fuse of the incident was Gu Jinzhi's kidnapping.

After that, Concubine Zhang Shu was imprisoned in the cold palace, and died within two years.

The eldest princess was very lively when she was a child. Since the Zhang family collapsed and Concubine Zhang Shu left, the snobs in the palace treated her worse than before, and the eldest princess also felt inferior and became more cautious.

The queen mother felt that she was not as dignified and gentle as she was when she was a child, and she was blindly cowardly, so she didn't like her very much.

Like all princesses, the eldest princess's marriage was ordered by the emperor, and the Ministry of Rites and the Supervisor of Rituals jointly chose it.

According to the laws and regulations of this era, even princesses are often discriminated against.

The eldest princess married a family named Jiang, and her life was not satisfactory.

Many things are hidden from the queen mother, but people in private know it.

Except for the queen mother and the emperor, everyone else has heard that the eldest princess is not very good.

The second princess is the daughter of Concubine Su.

Concubine Su's natal family is considered a meritorious person, and she is more concerned about the second princess's marriage, so the second princess married well.

Concubine De was very reluctant to let her daughter marry.

When the time came for the third princess to choose a son-in-law, Concubine De's heart arose.

The concubine and her natal family must not interfere with the matter of the princess choosing her son-in-law.Therefore, Concubine De shouldn't rashly send eunuchs to spread the word to let the Gu family pay attention to this matter.

She needs someone she trusts to help her.

Gu Jinzhi is one of the people she trusts.
