Chapter 65 The Brazier Is Not Enough

"Let her go!" After He finished the first sentence, he yelled again. Wutong was afraid that Gu Mingxuan's words would arouse He's anger, and something would make Hou Ye even more angry, so he wished that He would not see Gu Mingxuan. So he hurried out and said: "The madam said, she can't bear to let the eldest lady be tired, why don't the eldest miss come to pay her respects when the madam recovers from her illness."

Gu Mingxuan originally greeted her as a gesture, or if He planned to torture herself deliberately, she would make her look good, so when she heard Wutong say this, she smiled and said: "It is the mother who is sympathetic to me as a daughter, so please trouble sister Wutong." With Nanny He."

With that said, Gu Mingxuan turned her head and left without hesitation.

While walking, Gu Mingxuan was thinking about what happened when she greeted Mrs. Cui today.

Cui soon knew all about what happened yesterday, so when she saw her today, she intentionally comforted herself and told her not to argue with Gu Mingzhi. Zhi'er has such a sweet and straightforward personality, and she doesn't have any malice of.

Cui cared so much about the reputation of the Marquis of Shun'an in his heart, and he had already taken advantage of it, if he was still relentless and aggressive, it would be ugly, and it would also change his impression of himself Choi, who supported herself, hated giving up on herself again.

It doesn't matter what the truth is, the important thing is that since you have already taken advantage of it, you should accept it as soon as you see it, and wait for the next time to take it again—one time is not eye-catching, if you take advantage of it all at once, you will offend people.

Therefore, Gu Mingxuan said: "Yes, my daughter also told her father that her teeth and lips are still fighting. There is a stumbling between the sisters, which is normal. The next day, they are affectionate again. Seriously, Xuan'er is not good at disobeying her father's will, grandma, Zhi'er is still young, she must be afraid to kneel in the ancestral hall at this age, if not, tell me about father, kneeling for three days is enough."

It's all about getting cheap and acting like a good boy.

Cui Shi laughed at that time, put her arms around Gu Mingxuan and said: "Our Xuan'er is sensible, and we deserve to be sisters."

"Even if you are an older sister, you are also a grandchild in front of your grandmother, and you need your grandmother's love. Grandma can't stop loving Xuan'er just because Xuan'er is a big sister. Xuan'er won't like that."

Gu Mingxuan hugged Cui's arm and acted like a baby, while Sun's Gu Mingling, Gu Minghe and Gu Yuwen were all laughing and joking, but Gu Mingrong had a serious face.

He has always been like this.

When she was leaving, Gu Mingxuan specifically said that she wanted He's sickness, but she was afraid that she would be angry with her grandmother, so Cui immediately allowed her not to come to pay her respects for a few days.

Gu Mingxuan remembered that Cui's face at that time was very kind, her tone was very kind, and she praised her for her filial piety. Gu Minghe's complexion was a bit uneasy at that time, but as long as Cui's happy, it's fine, isn't it? Gu Minghe and herself are natural enemies, she doesn't need to go out of her way to please her.

*
At the beginning of May, the peonies were in full bloom. Gu Yuwen had learned how to pruning flowers and arranging flowers. Every time she cut out the potted plants, they were very beautiful. After Cui saw them, she praised them a few words, so Gu Yuwen would hand them every month. Pruned a few pots of flowers and trees that bloomed just right, and gave them to Cui, He and Sun.

Mrs. He loves magnificent peonies the most, and Mrs. He trims a pot of peonies.

After careful pruning, Gu Yuwen washed her hands under the service of maid Chen Xiang and Pinellia, wiped it carefully with balm, covered it with a hot towel for a while, changed her clothes, and then got up and said, "Let's go, let me take care of you." Send this potted flower to Madam."

Gu Yuwen also thought about what happened when she paid her respects today. Although Gu Mingxuan has superb acting skills, when she got a bargain and acted well, it seemed to be from the bottom of her heart, and no one could find fault with it.

On the contrary, it was Gu Minghe. When Cui Shi said that Gu Mingxuan was filial and that she was very affectionate with Gu Mingxuan, a haze flashed across her face. If she hadn't known what Gu Minghe cared about most, so she stared at her specially, maybe she wouldn't have been able to find her What about the look on his face?

Gu Yuwen sneered from the bottom of her heart, thinking in her heart, now that Gu Mingzhi is useless, and the He family can't make waves for the time being, since she is Cui's housekeeper, she must work harder on Cui's side, and hope that in early May this year During the Seven Flower Banquet, you can show yourself well.

When Mrs. He was in charge of the family in previous years, because she didn't want to see her, she provoked Gu Mingzhi to take her there, but she didn't dare to be too outstanding, so as not to make Mrs. He feel that she stole the limelight from her two daughters , hating myself even more.

However, she is only one year younger than Gu Mingxuan and Gu Mingling, and she is [-] years old this year. No one planned for her. She will have to observe mourning for more than two years, and she cannot go out to socialize. Myself, what should I do.

Therefore, at the flower banquet on the seventh day of the lunar new year, she must seize the opportunity and perform well. Without He Shi and Gu Mingzhi this year, she doesn't have to be so cautious, but she can't be too showy.

Well, she can show some talent, but the most important thing is that she needs to have a good reputation. The matter of Gu Mingxuan asking He's Shiji today inspired her.

Gu Mingxuan can serve the sick, so can she.

Gu Yuwen thought so, and when she was about to reach the Baihe Hall, she saw Gu Mingxuan walking towards her by herself.

Gu Mingxuan also saw Gu Yuwen walking towards her. She brought Chen Xiang and a poor woman, holding a pot of peonies in her hands.

"Is sister Wen also here to visit mother?" Gu Mingxuan asked with a smile when she saw Gu Yuwen.

"I've met Sister Xuan, has Sister Xuan already visited my aunt?" Gu Yuwen saluted Gu Mingxuan with a smile, and then asked back.

"I originally wanted to serve my mother, but my mother loves me so much that she doesn't let me in..." Gu Mingxuan said with a gloomy expression, as if she was so sad and disappointed that Mrs. He didn't let her serve the sick.

Pretending to be such a thing, Gu Yuwen slandered in her heart, but with a cowardly and envious smile on her face, she said: "My aunt loves Sister Xuan, and Wen'er is very envious of Sister Xuan. She is loved by her grandmother, uncle and mother." ...Unlike me, after a long time, I am no longer close to my parents...Even my younger siblings are strangers to me."

Seeing that she was so sad, Gu Mingxuan looked at Gu Yuwen with a half-smile and pretended to be angry and said, "I don't like to hear sister Wen's words, grandma and father Mother loves you so much, it makes me jealous, if they know that Sister Wen feels that she is not loved by anyone, I don't know how sad it will be."

Gu Yuwen's expression froze, and she soon smiled, and said, "Don't sister Xuan love my sister?"

"How could it be?" Gu Mingxuan smiled meaningfully, and said, "Sister Wen is the one I like the most among the sisters in my family, and I feel closest to her." No wonder.

Only a fool would believe your words!
Gu Yuwen felt that she was good at pretending, but she didn't expect that she was not as good as Gu Mingxuan now, so she couldn't help but feel a little nervous, changed the subject, and asked, "Sister Xuan, what do you think of this potted flower? I thought that my aunt was bored while recuperating, so I cut it out specially. When it comes to potted flowers, my aunt likes peonies the most."

Gu Mingxuan looked outside, and said: "I don't understand these things, and I can't say what's good about them, but I think that although they are not particularly beautiful, they are just very comfortable to look at."

"Ah?" Gu Yuwen seemed very happy, she said, "Sister Xuan really feels very comfortable looking at it?"

"Yeah, it's very comfortable to look at." Gu Mingxuan replied with a smile.

Gu Yuwen also laughed, a little softly and timidly, and said: "Sister Xuan still said that she didn't understand, but I think Sister Xuan is really amazing. People who are sick can only recover quickly when they are in a good mood, so My potted flower is just to make my aunt feel comfortable looking at it, and get better soon."

Gu Yuwen's craftsmanship is really good, but it's a pity that she learned this to please people, and she lost her heart, so she naturally had too many flaws.

For example, since you want to make people feel comfortable, why choose peony?

"Why is Sister Xuan alone?" Gu Yuwen asked.

"Seeing that Zhou's mother couldn't carry the cress by herself, she asked Lurui to give it away." Gu Mingxuan replied casually, and when she saw Lurui approaching in the distance, she nodded and said, "Sister Wen, first Let's go, I'll go back first."

After meeting Lu Rui, Gu Mingxuan took a look at Lu Rui and asked, "What's going on?"

Lu Rui was stunned for a moment, thinking it was Gu Mingxuan who was questioning herself, and hurriedly said: "The maidservant didn't stay long, and came over immediately after sending off Mother Zhou."

Stupid... Gu Mingxuan once again felt that Lurui's use was really not going well, and said helplessly, "It's not about you, but what's going on with Zhou's mother, she looks very sad?"

It turned out that this was the question, and Lu Rui breathed a sigh of relief. Since it was not her problem, then there is no problem. She said: "I have inquired about it before, and Shui Qin's father wants to marry Shui Qin to the stupid son of the steward Mao's family. Shui Qin Mother wanted to beg Madam to give Shui Qin a favor, and find a servant to match her, even if she is older, as long as she is considerate, but Madam did not agree, Shui Qin’s mother is about to die of worry."

Upon hearing this, Gu Mingxuan smiled and nodded.

This person, Shui Qin, is a bit hateful. Not to mention being He's loyal henchman in her previous life, she has to feed herself laxatives from the very beginning in this life. If it is possible, she is really happy to see her end up like this, but...

I am short of people now and need manpower. Besides, Shuiqin is He's confidant. She must know a lot about He's things, which is much more important than Wei Wei and Chuncao. It would be a pity if she let it go like this.

Gu Mingxuan went back to Huaqing Garden, and after talking to Nanny Zhuang about the matter, she asked, "Mammy, can I ask, which of my mother's bodyguards has a suitable candidate for marriage with Shuiqin... "

"What does miss want to do?" Zhuang Nanny asked with a smile, "Of course there are candidates. I made a list a few days ago, and there are still more than 600 people who are willing to come back. Naturally, it is not easy to let so many people out." In the Marquis of Shun'an's mansion, I was thinking about how to gather them."

"So fast?" Gu Mingxuan was a little surprised. In her last life, she spent a long time with Madam Zhuang when she wanted to gather people together, but she only managed to gather 200 people. How come she has already gathered people in just a few days in this life? So many people.

Far more than the 200 people in the previous life.

"They heard that the young lady is back, and they are very willing to serve the young lady." Madam Zhuang stroked Gu Mingxuan's hair and said with a smile: "We are the most loyal guards of Prince Yi's Mansion."

Gu Mingxuan was silent. In the last life, when she and Nanny Zhuang wanted to win people over, it was two years later. At that time, her father hated her extremely, and her reputation in the capital had already been ruined to the extreme. In this life, in her With her own efforts, her fate has changed a lot.

Then, it's normal for other things to change a little bit, isn't it?

I remember that in the last life, Nanny Zhuang once sighed, saying that it would have been better if it had been half a year earlier. If it had been half a year earlier, many personal guards would still be there, which is a pity...

It can be seen that it should be a year and a half later, what happened to make them all disperse, but in my last life, I lived in a muddle at the beginning, and I really can't remember what happened a year and a half later, I really regret——

Wait, there should be no regrets, she remembered, and Gu Mingxuan's spirit shook.

After a while, Gu Mingxuan let out a sigh of relief and said, "Yes, they are all the most precious things my mother left me."

Grandma Zhuang was very happy to hear that Gu Mingxuan valued so much the original guards of Prince Yi's Mansion, and said: "Miss is right, they are the most precious things left by the princess."

After saying this sentence, Madam Zhuang asked: "Miss, do you plan to marry Shui Qin to one of them?"

Gu Mingxuan was absolutely relaxed in front of Nanny Zhuang. She snorted and said, "Shuiqin knows a lot about the He family. It might be useful to keep her." Smiling, Gu Mingxuan continued, "Shuiqin She has an outstanding appearance and is very capable, the only bad thing is her character, but when she gets married, she probably won't be able to make any troubles."

"We don't necessarily need our personal guards. I don't want them to marry Shui Qin. I hope to find a relative or brother who is not very successful in the personal guard's family. It is best that the family needs to rely on us for a living. Yes, this way can not only guarantee loyalty, but also prevent Shui Qin from knowing too much, and can control her, killing three birds with one stone."

"It's just an idle move, just do it as you please, anyway, cress isn't too bad." Gu Mingxuan finally said.

Grandma Zhuang smiled when she heard that, nodded repeatedly and said, "Don't worry, Grandma will handle this matter, and I promise it will be done beautifully."

Nanny Zhuang was very happy, Gu Mingxuan was so thoughtful about things.

After finalizing this matter, Gu Mingxuan asked: "Isn't there a suitable place for so many people right now?"

Nanny Zhuang nodded and sighed: "In the past, there were three thousand Qin soldiers in Prince Yi's mansion. When it came to the princess, the prince personally begged the late emperor for the princess. The late emperor was very merciful and allowed the princess to have a thousand soldiers." The soldiers, those who have passed the Ming Road, naturally have a place to resettle, but now, it is really a big problem to resettle so many people and their families."

Gu Mingxuan lowered her head and thought for a while, thinking of the place she used to train Ning Haiwei in her previous life, she might not be able to accommodate so many people, not to mention their family members. After a long silence, Gu Mingxuan thought of a place, although Some distance from the capital, but not very far, it should be very suitable.

Thinking of this, Gu Mingxuan said to Nanny Zhuang: "Why don't you do this, you can screen out the people first, and choose a hundred brave and know how to advance and retreat as special guards. After all, the capital does not need other places..."

"The rest of the people, according to their abilities, some can choose to spy on the news, and some can join the army under my father or other people. I believe that as long as I have the ability, my father will definitely use and promote my mother's personal guards. At that time, we will have confidence, and we will also give them a future, after all, I can't be like my mother now, with so many soldiers, it is too eye-catching, and it will cause trouble."

Nanny Zhuang nodded, thinking that this method is also good, and the young lady has considered it carefully, but she heard Gu Mingxuan say: "Remember to help me choose two maids with good martial arts skills, preferably ones who can be tall and tall. , It would be even better if you use something poisonous that can torture others to the point of death."

The first one will be used on the gentleman on Liang Shang that day, so that he can live half his life, and life and death are better than life and death!
Gu Mingxuan was furious, and someone who was wearing a fox fur and listening to Cheng Xun suddenly felt cold all over, four braziers were indeed not enough, six were needed...

Grandma Zhuang looked at Gu Mingxuan's fierce expression and was a little stunned. What's wrong with Miss?Why does it look like he has a deep hatred for others?

"Miss, you don't want to poison Mrs. He to death, do you? That's not okay..." Zhuang Nanny was about to persuade Gu Mingxuan, but Gu Mingxuan had already regained her senses. When she heard Zhuang Nanny's words, she immediately shook her head and said, "How could that be, Madam?" Mom, you think too much, I just want to teach that young master Yang a lesson, who dared to frame me after listening to other people's words. "

Gu Mingxuan found an excuse to prevaricate, and then remembered Zhao Zongyuan and Yu Zeqing. It is said that Zhao Zongyuan was severely taught by Chang Xinbo, and now he can't get out of bed. Push back, don't rush to deal with Zhao Zongyuan, but Yu Zeqing has to take it down first.

Nanny Zhuang laughed when she heard the words, since no one would be killed, it would be better to teach her a lesson secretly, at least, it would make the young lady feel bad.

"Okay, Mammy knows, she will definitely find two maidservants who are good at martial arts for the young lady, and as for Mr. Yang San, find two powerful personal guards to teach him a lesson, and just vent her anger on the young lady." Madam Zhuang He readily agreed.

"You need a very good maid." Gu Mingxuan acted like a baby.

"Yes, yes, it's very powerful." Madam Zhuang agreed, and Gu Mingxuan was satisfied.

While talking, Sang Zhi replied outside: "Miss, the treasurer of Jinxiu Pavilion is here to see you."
