Di daughter graceful

Chapter 697
Old Hou Ye's eyes were blurred, and the heavy stone that was suppressed in his heart, which made him breathless, finally moved away.

"Qing'er, thank you! Thank you Jue Yi..." Old Hou Ye tremblingly said: "Grandfather knows some things in his heart, so grandfather will not pretend to be ignorant and greedy, and shamelessly pray for others. Now that she can be saved, grandfather Very satisfied, very grateful!"

Gu Qingyuan looked at the vitality in the old Hou Ye's eyes, and felt relaxed, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, "Grandfather, the eldest son is not a particularly tolerant person, so, grandfather, take care of yourself, you understand?"

After hearing this, the old Hou Ye didn't answer, and he was silent for a long time before speaking, "Young girl Qing, you are smart and have a clear mind, so you should understand some things. Grandpa has unavoidable difficulties."

"Does the minister have to accept the order of the emperor?"

Gu Qingyuan explained the cruel, sensitive, and taboo words in one sentence. The old Hou Ye's complexion changed slightly, and he said solemnly in a low voice: "Young girl, be careful! And my so-called difficulties are not this, don't think about it anymore! Never say that again, you know?"

Gu Qingyuan nodded after listening, and responded obediently: "Okay, I understand."

In fact, Gu Qingyuan knew whether it was true or not, and Old Hou Ye knew it even more!

After a moment of silence, the old marquis opened his mouth and said meaningfully: "Girl Qing, this is the Earl's Mansion, and you are the serious master of the Earl's Mansion. Everything is up to you! Whether it is a matter or a person, as long as you feel It should be, don't worry about other things, protecting yourself is the most important thing. Moreover, you are also helping grandfather."

Gu Qingyuan listened to the old Hou Ye's words, she knew very well what the potential meaning was.

Xia Houyong, the eldest princess, Xia Houjing, Xia Houqi, what they want and what they are planning, I think the old master knows very well.For that goal, they will definitely do something for it, and they themselves are the biggest stumbling block to realizing their desire.They will definitely think of various ways to move away or get rid of themselves, the person who stands in the way.

If something happened to him, with Xiahou Jueyi's disposition, those people might not be able to escape unscathed even with the presence of the old Hou Ye.On the contrary, if you are well, maybe there is still room for maneuver.

"My daughter-in-law understands that she will protect herself well."

"Well! This is very good, very good!"

After Gu Qingyuan finished speaking, a shadow guard flashed up to Gu Qingyuan and reported: "Concubine Shizi, the eldest son Xiahou and the eldest princess have come to Lord Hou."

Gu Qingyuan nodded, looked at the old man and said, "Grandfather, there are too many strangers in the Earl's Mansion. But here, it's safe now. Grandfather needs to recuperate well, you know?"

"Okay, I'll try to see."

Gu Qingyuan smiled lightly, then turned around, looked at the boy beside him, and said calmly: "You heard what you shouldn't have heard, and you've seen what you shouldn't have seen. You also know what to do next?"

The boy looked at Gu Qingyuan's cold face, and then at the boy on the ground, something flashed in his eyes.Then he calmly said: "In front of the imperial concubine, Zhang Quan made wild comments about the right and wrong of the eldest son, saying that his false filial piety is really harmful! Such a slave has a heart that can be punished and has ulterior motives. The Marquis was annoyed and ordered to kill him. The villain did it."

When the boy said that, Gu Qingyuan showed a playful smile, "Zhou Yi!"

Hearing Gu Qingyuan suddenly call out his name, the boy was shocked, but thinking of his father's evaluation of the princess, what happened just now, and the shocking words he heard, Zhou Yi calmed down instantly. , said respectfully: "Yes."

Glancing at Zhou Yi's expression, Gu Qingyuan turned to look at Old Hou Ye and said, "Grandfather, Zhou Guan is a good tutor!"

Old Hou Ye nodded and sighed, "It's not easy for him."

"I understand his difficulties, but I can't accept his ignorance. I don't want him to be completely devoted to Lord Hou, but I just hope that he can't bear it." Gu Qingyuan looked back at Zhou Yi and said, "It seems that this intolerance is not in the heart of Steward Zhou. is existence."

Listening to Gu Qingyuan's subtle but transparent words, Zhou Yi raised his eyebrows, his whole body shivered from his feet to his head.There is a creepy feeling in my heart, what does Shi Zifei know?Or, she already knew everything... Thinking of Zhou Yi's complexion suddenly changed, cold sweat immediately broke out on his forehead...

After returning from the old Hou Ye's courtyard, Gu Qingyuan lay on the soft couch and pressed the center of his eyebrows, his expression was tinged with exhaustion.

Ling Yun looked at it, frowned and said: "Is the concubine Shi Zi uncomfortable?"

"No, I just feel a little tired!"

Hearing this, Ling Yun hurriedly said: "Maidservant, go and make some medicine for Shi Zifei to nourish her body and relieve fatigue!"

Gu Qingyuan shook his head after hearing this, "The medicine is three-point poisonous, I don't want to take medicine! Just ask Mei Xiang to make me something to eat."

"Okay, the servant will go now."

Ling Yun left, and Ying Yi walked in.Seeing the woman half leaning on the soft couch, she stepped forward, knelt down on both knees, and solemnly kowtowed to Gu Qingyuan, her voice was still rigid and indifferent, but she was full of gratitude, "My subordinates, those who The shadow guards who have passed away, thank you, the Crown Princess, for your importance to them."

After hearing this, Gu Qingyuan sat upright and looked at Yingyi, shook her head slightly, and said with a wry smile: "There is nothing I can do for them. They have completed their mission with their own lives and blood. It is right to let them rest in peace. Their most basic respect. In fact, if I can, I want to see them live well."

Hearing the words, Ying Yi's face was filled with emotion, "These are what they should do, but now they can get respect and affirmation from the Crown Princess, they deserve it!"

After a fierce battle, there were three dead shadow guards, but only his master buried his shadow guard.My heart aches for the Shadow Guard's sacrifice.This is really the greatest comfort, greatest affirmation, and honor for people like them!
Gu Qingyuan sighed, she didn't feel relaxed at all with Yingyi's words.Thinking of those shadow guards still makes my heart heavy, but I also understand that once soldiers step into the battlefield, they are doomed to end in blood!That is an unchangeable fate, a tragic brilliance, as short as fireworks, but it lingers in my heart and will never dissipate.

"Shadow One, get up!"

"Yes, Crown Princess."

"Is there any movement in the palace?"

"The emperor has summoned all the ministers, and they are discussing matters in the hall now. I think there will be results soon."

Gu Qingyuan nodded after listening, "Is there any movement from Nangong Ling?"

"still has not now."

"I see, you asked you to continue watching, and tell me immediately if you have any news."

"Yes, my subordinates retire."

"Go!"

in another courtyard
Xia Houyong walked back and forth in the room with a gloomy and terrifying face. Looking at the eldest princess who was sitting on the main seat and closed her eyes only to turn the beads, anger appeared in her eyes. He walked up to her in two steps and said coldly: "You are really Calm enough! Ah! At this point, you can still sit still, and still be in the mood to recite those useless Buddhist scriptures."
