Warm spring enters Hou's door
Chapter 129
Chapter 129
No matter how unhappy she was, Gu Caiwei could only write a greeting card to Princess Taiping afterwards.
Princess Taiping really replied, inviting her to go to Luoyang to appreciate chrysanthemums.
Sandwiched in the middle of the reply is the title deed of a house in Luoyang.Look at that place, not far from the palace!
Holding this reply in her hand, Gu Caiwei had mixed feelings in her heart.
There are chrysanthemums everywhere, but go to Luoyang to enjoy the flowers... Even, in order to let her enjoy the flowers with peace of mind, Princess Taiping directly gave her a valuable house!This capital is also big enough.
"Now, Her Majesty the Empress has already got up and headed for Luoyang, the capital of God." Du Juanqing said, "Many important officials in the court have also followed, and so has Old Di Ge."
Gu Caiwei sighed helplessly.
Chang'an was originally the base of the Li Tang Dynasty. Since the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Her Majesty the Empress has designated Luoyang as the capital of God, that is, the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty. She spent almost half of her time in Luoyang.However, due to various reasons, she still has to come to Chang'an from time to time.Therefore, whether they are relatives of the emperor or important officials in the court, most of them have a house in Chang'an and Luoyang.
However, Du Juanqing did not.
Not only Du Juanqing, but also Lai Guo Gongfu!
When the Empress ascended the throne, the Duke of Laiguo had already been in poverty for many years, and they did not squeeze into the encirclement circle around the Empress, so naturally there was no need to follow Empress Chang'an and Luoyang.
In the end, who would have thought that a plume of green smoke would suddenly appear from the Du family's ancestral grave, and a Du Juanqing who could catch the eyes of the queen would be born out of nowhere?
Over the years, the housing prices in Luoyang have risen again and again. They want to buy a better house there, but they have to spend a lot of money.But they didn't even plan to live in that place for a long time, and it was a waste of money to buy it.
So now, if they really want to go to Luoyang, they seem to have no other choice but to live in the mansion arranged by Princess Taiping.
"Just in this way, we owe the princess another favor. If she asks us later, we can't refuse." Gu Caiwei said in a low voice.
"It's as if if she doesn't accept the house, she won't ask us. And as long as she asks, how can we refuse?" Du Juanqing immediately responded, "Don't you know the princess's temper? She can be courteous before fighting, which is to be polite to us on purpose. If we don't accept her kindness, she should do it directly. "
The corners of Gu Caiwei's mouth twitched.
But she also knew that what Du Juanqing said was the truth.Back then, didn't Princess Taiping just call her back and forth?Later, seeing Du Juanqing slowly gaining ground in Chang'an City, and she also showed certain abilities, Princess Taiping's attitude improved a little.
Gu Caiwei couldn't help but sigh again. "From this point of view, we must embark on this thief ship!"
"Then step on it! It's better than stepping on the pirate ship of the Wu family." Du Juan said calmly.
So, the matter of going to Luoyang was decided.
But when Gu Tianyuan and Du Yi heard that they were going to Luoyang soon, they were very happy.
"Father and mother, can we go to Luoyang with you? I haven't seen Erlang for a long time. I want to meet him first before going to Yongxing County." Du Yi said hastily.
Although he has grown to be much taller than Xiao Langjun of the same age, and under the tempering of Fufengzi, his skin has become dark and dark, and he can clearly see lumps of flesh on his arms and legs .Now that he goes out to fight, I'm afraid that other young gentlemen can't beat him!
But in front of Gu Caiwei, Du Yi was still like a little doll, softly holding her hand and acting coquettishly cute.
Gu Caiwei looked at this cheap son who had obviously grown up by more than two laps, and goosebumps rolled down her arms.This feeling is almost the same as Du Juanqing pretending to be pitiful and getting into her arms every time.
Gu Caiwei had mixed feelings in her heart.
On the one hand, she was touched by the fact that Du Yi was still so close to her.But on the other hand... With Du Yi's current honor, it's really not suitable for him to act like a baby anymore.
Gritting her teeth and taking a deep breath, she quickly rubbed Du Juanqing's head. "Go if you want! Anyway, if you go from Chang'an to Yongxing County, you only need to detour for two days on the way, and this time is nothing."
The two little guys cheered for joy, and hurried to prepare a gift for Xue Chongjian!
Two days later, Gu Caiwei and Du Juanqing packed their luggage, and they left for Luoyang.
But Qi Shi and Gu Chengfeng did not accompany them.
"Ah Wei, you've grown up and are married now. My father and mother won't accompany you on the next journey. You and your son-in-law remember to support each other, walk slowly, don't worry." Qi Shi only said this to her.
Gu Chengyuan looked at Du Juanqing. "I'll leave my daughter to you. Although she has a bad temper and was spoiled by us since she was a child, she never wants to suffer, but she definitely deserves your kindness to her."
"I know. I will always be nice to her." Du Juanqing nodded immediately.
After Gu Chengfeng and his wife finished explaining, they waved goodbye to Gu Caiwei and his wife, and they pedaled back to Xuzhou to live in seclusion.
Watching her parents' carriage go far away, Gu Caiwei couldn't help but shed tears, her eyes fixed on the direction of the carriage and refused to look back.
Du Juanqing quickly pulled her up. "Let's go! It's time for us to set off."
Gu Caiwei was slowly pulled into the carriage by her, and the driver immediately flicked his whip and led them towards Luoyang.
It's just that Gu Caiwei's spirit is still not very good because her soul has completely occupied this body, so they walked very slowly along the way.When they were still walking slowly on the morning road, Luling Wang's family had already returned to Luoyang.Then, Xiang Wang Li Dan took the initiative to give up the position of prince to King Luling, and King Luling became the prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty.Princess Wei of Luling was conferred the title of crown princess, and several of their children were also crowned kings and princesses one after another.
When Gu Caiwei and the others arrived in Luoyang, it was time for this family to show off.
Regarding this, Du Juanqing only said one sentence: "Now, Mr. Di Ge should feel at ease."
Gu Caiwei pursed her lips. "maybe!"
They were not familiar with the King of Luling, and now it was time for the new crown prince's family to communicate with others, so Du Juanqing and Gu Caiwei retreated to the side knowingly.
It's just that they want to stay away from right and wrong, but some people are not willing to let them be so leisurely - on the second day after they settled down in Luoyang, Princess Taiping ordered someone to send an invitation card, asking them to come to Luoyang in three days. Go to the princess's house for a banquet.
"It's time to come." Gu Caiwei pinched the invitation and glanced at it, then she casually threw it aside.
Du Juan didn't even notice it, he just nodded indifferently. "Since it's here, let's deal with it head-on. It's not a big deal in the first place."
"That's true." Gu Caiwei nodded.
So, three days later, the whole family dressed up and went to the princess mansion together.
This time, the princess' mansion was still full of guests.As usual, Gu Caiwei only made a few snacks and brought them over as a gift to Princess Taiping.
As soon as the concierge at the door saw this gift, he hurried forward to invite Gu Caiwei and Du Juanqing: "Is Madam Changning Hou here? The princess has been waiting for you for a long time, please come here with me!"
This incident immediately caused quite a commotion among the guests—in the past two years, as Her Majesty the Empress gradually loosened her grip on Princess Taiping, Princess Taiping gradually began to intervene in government affairs, and now she has a lot of control over her. right now.Especially this time, when King Luling's family returned to Luoyang, it was she who worked hard back and forth.In such a short period of time, she has already successfully matched the crown prince and many courtiers.
However, those who can be favored by Princess Taiping must be talents among talents.But the Marquis of Changning and his wife in front of them... Is the princess being too enthusiastic about them?Didn't they just discover an iron mine!They even gave the imperial court the current mining right of this iron mine!
Facing the gazes projected from all directions, Du Juanqing and Gu Caiwei remained calm.
"Really? Then please lead the way!" Gu Caiwei had known that she would not be able to escape today, so she simply treated it with a normal heart.
The concierge hurriedly nodded, and hurriedly called a maid to lead them to meet Princess Taiping at the back.
As for Du Juanqing and Gu Tianyuan, they naturally have their places to go.
At this time Princess Taiping was talking and laughing with several ladies.As soon as Gu Caiwei walked in, she saw a few small plates by Princess Taiping's hands, and there were a few exquisitely shaped pastries on the plates - those were the ones she had just delivered!
So fast, they had just delivered the things to the porter, and then they had already delivered them to the princess!
Seeing this, Gu Caiwei was slightly taken aback.
Princess Taiping has also discovered her, she immediately smiled and said: "Mrs. Changning Hou is really a big face! Last time, the princess just quarreled with you, and then you got angry, and you have ignored me until now. In a word. If I hadn't taken the initiative to find you this time, would you still not come to see me?"
Well, just after we met, she put a big hat on her head.Act like it's all her fault!
Obviously, they were doing their own thing at the beginning, so they couldn't go on anymore, okay?
But in front of so many people, Gu Caiwei still bowed her head and admitted her mistake. "I was wrong, please don't be as knowledgeable as me, my lord, princess."
"If I were as knowledgeable as you, would you still be able to stand here safe and sound?" Princess Taiping smiled lightly and waved at her, "Okay, come and sit down! I've forgotten everything about the past But the cakes you make are still as delicious as ever. Over the past year, I have hired so many cooks to make them, but I still can't make them taste that good, which is really strange!"
"Of course. If my cooking skills can be imitated casually, princess, would you still care about me so much?" Gu Caiwei has always been proud of her cooking skills.
Now, it was Princess Taiping's turn to be stunned for a moment, and she smiled and said, "You really are getting more and more courageous!"
"Thank you princess for your compliment." Gu Caiwei smiled and lowered her head, then Shi Shiran went over and sat down.
And when she just sat down, those noble ladies who were still sitting here just now received the signal from Princess Taiping and got up to leave one after another.
Seeing this, Gu Caiwei couldn't help but look at Princess Taiping again.
Princess Taiping pursed her lips. "Why, I'm not allowed to deliberately find a few people to strengthen the momentum, so as to severely suppress you, a rebellious little lady?"
Gu Caiwei chuckled: "Princess, you are too worried. Since I agreed to your invitation, it means that I have bowed my head on my own initiative. And the reason why you are doing this now is not that you want to use their identities to impose on me." Rather, you want to use their mouths to let others know that the Marquis of Changning has defected to you with his mine, right?"
Princess Taiping's eyes darkened for a moment. "Mr. Gu, as a woman, it's not a good thing that you are too smart. Especially if you speak so sharply, if you are not careful, you will bring yourself to death."
"Then princess, will you kill me?" Gu Caiwei only asked.
"Of course not. I have just started using you, so how can I be willing to kill you?" Princess Taiping slowly showed a smile, "Besides, since I know your true identity, I am even more reluctant. You said how could you hide it so well that you even deceived me!"
Sure enough, she also knew about that.
Gu Caiwei lowered her eyes. "If I say this kind of thing myself, how many people will believe it? If I say too much, I'm afraid I've already become a lunatic in the eyes of others."
"That's true." Princess Taiping nodded, she couldn't sit still anymore, but stood up instead, and took the initiative to circle around Gu Caiwei several times, looking her up and down, "But I see you, from the beginning Up to now, there is no sense of disobedience at all. How did you do it?"
"Princess, you are really embarrassing me. Until now, I don't know what's going on! Didn't Her Majesty send Qin Tianjian to observe before? They must know better than me." Gu Caiwei play dumb.
Although Princess Taiping was interested in what happened to her, she was not willing to say more when she saw her, so she didn't ask any more questions, and just said: "I think you already know the purpose of inviting you here this time."
Gu Caiwei nodded. "yes."
"Then I don't know what Madam Changning Hou thinks?"
"Do I still have a choice?" Gu Caiwei smiled lightly, "We have already had a quarrel with your husband's family, the princess, and several lives have been caused. Our dispute will not end in the future."
"The Wu family is the Wu family, not my husband's family." Princess Taiping interrupted her suddenly and coldly.
Gu Caiwei is kind and kind: "We and the Wu family are already at odds with each other, and the differences will only become bigger and bigger in the future. But we are weak, and if we continue to fight like this for a long time, we will suffer in the end. So, since now, princess, you take the initiative to ask We reach out, we're not going to hold it unless we're stupid."
Princess Taiping raised her eyebrows. "You answered so readily? Don't you need to discuss it with Marquis Changning?"
"We have already discussed this kind of matter before we came here, and we have already made a decision, so there is no need to say more." Gu Caiwei shook her head.
In today's world, they have no choice, so they don't need to put on airs and hesitate any longer. Everyone quickly speak up, and then assign tasks to each other and do their part well.
Princess Taiping couldn't help laughing out loud.
"Mrs. Changning Hou, you are such a wonderful person. I just like talking to you! I haven't dealt with you for more than a year. God knows how boring my life is!"
Gu Caiwei quickly bowed her head in a docile gesture.
Not long after, the servant girl outside came to report: "Prince Princess, Princess Xindu, Princess Yongtai, Princess Anle and others are here."
Princess Taiping's eyes brightened immediately, and she quickly waved to Gu Caiwei. "Let's go! Now that you're all grasshoppers on the same rope, I'll take you to meet a few more grasshoppers!"
If the princesses knew that Princess Taiping called them grasshoppers, how would they feel?
Gu Caiwei thought to herself, her feet still obediently followed Princess Taiping forward.
Soon, they met Crown Princess Wei's group on the way.
When we meet each other, it is natural to exchange pleasantries.
Princess Taiping warmly called Webster's sister-in-law, and Princess Xindu cordially called her aunt around Princess Taiping.
But Gu Caiwei was standing not far away, and she clearly didn't see much sincerity in the eyes of these people.Princess Taiping is better, but the princess and her party...
Perhaps because of suffering too much in Luling County, the Crown Princess Webster's face was visibly vicissitudes, and the thick powder on her face could not cover the fine lines around her eyes.Even now that she is the Crown Princess, she is very cautious in speaking and doing things in front of Princess Taiping, her sister-in-law. From time to time, she has to pay attention to the changes in Princess Taiping's face, lest she say something that will make her unhappy.
This is especially true for the sisters of Princess Xindu.They only listened to their aunt's long and short, which made Princess Taiping laugh from ear to ear.
A group of people kissed and talked for a long time before Princess Taiping led them over. "By the way, I almost forgot to introduce this one to you. This one is the wife of Du Junqing, Marquis of Changning. Marquis of Changning, you should know, right? He now owns an excellent iron mine in Yongxing County. Leading the swordsmiths under him to develop a new type of arrowhead and a new Mo Dao. Because of this, the empress praised them in public!"
The Crown Princess Wei Shi hurriedly nodded with a smile. "The name of Marquis of Changning is so resounding in the generation of Jingzhou Road. How could we not know it in Luling? It's just because of our status, we only hear his name but don't see him. This is a great pity."
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard a soft hum from her side: "We can't leave Luling County because of my father, but it doesn't mean that outsiders can't come to pay respects to my father! But from the beginning to the end At the end, they didn't even come here, they just sent a greeting card and a meeting gift, and then it's over! I think they just don't look down on us!"
"Bao'er, don't talk nonsense!" Hearing Wei Shi's words, she was so frightened that she quickly lowered her face and scolded.
The little lady who spoke was naturally Princess Anle, the youngest daughter born to Princess Wei and the prince.
Hearing this, Gu Caiwei couldn't help but look over there, and she realized that - this Princess Anle was born really well!
Even though she was only thirteen or fourteen years old, she was already undressed like a flower that is about to bloom. She is so beautiful that people can't forget it at the first sight.It's just that she is only young, and there is already a smear of hostility between her brows, and she can tell at a glance that she is a little lady with a violent temper.
and……
"what?"
Staring at her face and looking at the princess, Gu Caiwei suddenly let out a low cry between her lips, and her eyes were more and more fixed on the eyebrows and eyes of Princess Anle.
She discovered something amazing!
Princess Anle was furious at the look on her face. "Bold! Who allowed you to stare at the princess so disrespectfully?"
It wasn't until Gu Caiwei realized that she quickly lowered her eyes. "Princess, calm down. I've never seen a beautiful lady like you, and I was fascinated by it for a while."
But these words could not convince Princess Anle, on the contrary, it made her even more angry. "I look good, that's my business, you are a mere Mrs. Hou, what right do you have to stare at me? A country girl like you who doesn't understand the rules should have her eyes gouged!"
"Anle!" Upon hearing this, Princess Taiping couldn't help but lower her face, "Mrs. Changninghou is my guest today, how can you allow you to speak ill of her?"
When Princess Taiping was angry, Princess Anle's mother and daughter immediately became excited. Princess Wei quickly pulled her daughter to apologize: "Taiping, Anle is young and ignorant, and she grew up in Luling County. In the world, I have always been negligent in disciplining her, which led to this. As an elder, don't be as knowledgeable as her. "
As she said that, she quickly pulled Princess Anle again. "Aren't you going to admit your mistake to your aunt?"
Princess Anle bowed her head unwillingly. "Auntie, I was wrong."
The Crown Princess took the initiative to bow her head to her to admit her mistake, and Princess Taiping calmed down when she saw this.
Originally, she didn't intend to turn against them, so she changed her face and returned to her gentle face just now: "An Le, you really wronged Mrs. Changning Hou just now. To be honest, Mrs. Changning Hou was famous in her ancestors. The miracle doctor in the world, now she also got some true biography from her ancestors. You have suffered enough in Luling County before, and now you have finally come back. I am planning to ask her to feel the pulse of you all, and each of you will prescribe some medicinal food to take care of your body! "
This is her intention to reconcile the relationship between Gu Caiwei and Princess Anle.
When Gu Caiwei heard the words, she nodded quickly: "What the princess said is true. I have no other skills in my life, and I can only cook well. If the princess and princess don't dislike it, please let me show you Take a look!"
"That's it, that's great!" The Crown Princess Wei Shi hurriedly nodded with a smile, and stretched out her hand to Gu Caiwei on her own initiative.
In fact, she didn't believe that a young lady like Gu Caiwei could have much real ability.It's just that since Princess Taiping has already praised her to such an extent, I will take it as selling face to Princess Taiping.Anyway, she took back the prescription of the medicinal food, and it was up to her whether to eat it or not.
But I never thought that after Gu Caiwei felt her pulse, she immediately said: "Princess, you have been worrying too much these years, which has caused the five internal organs to stagnate, so your body is deteriorating slightly faster than your peers, and your memory is also slightly diminished. Now you need more Eat some sweets, and think more about happy places, so that you can open up your mind. Also, Luling County is located in the south, where the humidity is heavy. You have stayed there for so many years, and your physique is extremely damp and cold. Now, do you often feel weak all over your body and don’t get enough sleep? Moreover, even when you wake up, you still feel groggy and can’t concentrate on doing things?”
Every word she said hit Wei Shi's chest directly, making her heart beat faster.
The little lady in front of me is actually right!
In an instant, she looked at Gu Caiwei with a bit of admiration in her eyes, and she even took the initiative to ask: "Then I don't know how I should take care of it?"
"Actually, this problem is not a big deal. Concubine, you can just eat a small handful of barley every day. Barley removes dampness, but it has a certain cold nature. You can fry it for a while before using it. , stir-fry the cold air in the barley, and then cook porridge, or soup, or grind it to make pastries. I will write you a few desserts and a menu of barley. You can take it back and let the kitchen Just do it."
"Hey, don't you need to take medicine?" Wei Shi was taken aback again.
Now, before Gu Caiwei could speak, Princess Taiping laughed. "Sister-in-law, you really have lost your memory. Have you forgotten what I just told you? Mrs. Changning Hou is best at food therapy. She treats people with delicious food. She is not like those white-bearded doctors in the imperial hospital. You know how to prescribe those soups that are too bitter to drink for us."
Wechsler immediately smiled. "So that's the case! Then I'm relieved. If that's the case, I'll trouble Mrs. Changninghou."
In an instant, her attitude towards Gu Caiwei changed.
Gu Caiwei nodded with a smile, and felt the pulse of Princess Xindu again.
"Princess, you are still young and have a strong body, but your body is still too damp and cold, and it is humid and hot. Right now, you can't just eat barley, and you have to avoid it. You can't eat too much beef and mutton every time, but chicken and rabbit meat are better." You can eat more. But the chicken and rabbit meat has its own flavor after it’s done, and I’ll make some recipes for you later, and you can take it back and let the kitchen make it.”
Princess Xindu quickly nodded happily.
Then Princess Ngee An, Princess Xinning, Princess Yongshou...
Every time after taking the pulse, Gu Caiwei can accurately tell their physical condition, exactly.Then say something about what they eat, with cooking methods-even some of them are eating methods they have never heard of!
Immediately, everyone lost their aversion to taking medicine, and instead felt a little bit of anticipation.Therefore, their attitude towards Gu Caiwei became more and more cordial.
In the end, it was the turn of the youngest Princess Anle.
Gu Caiwei stretched out her hand Shi Shiran: "Princess, please give me your hand."
But Princess Anle immediately put her hands behind her back. "You don't need to look, there is an imperial physician in the East Palace. We have been seen by the imperial physician after we came back. What the imperial physician said is similar to what you said. From this point of view, you actually only have this little ability, so don't look any further!"
Gu Caiwei frowned, but Princess Taiping's face darkened again. "Anle, what are you doing? Your sisters have already shown it to Mrs. Changninghou, and now you are the only one left. What if you show her?"
"I don't need to look, I'm fine!" Princess Anle insisted.
When Wei Shi saw this, she suddenly flashed her eyes, and quickly smiled and said: "This child An Le is like this. We have spoiled her since she was a child. Now that she doesn't want to show it to Mrs. Changninghou, then don't look at it. Anyway, she She is still young, and there is nothing wrong with her body now. If there is any problem in the future, it will not be too late for us to invite Mrs. Changning Hou to come and see."
She insisted that there was 'nothing wrong with Princess Anle'.
After hearing this, Princess Taiping couldn't help staring deeply at Princess Anle for a long time.
Princess Anle was so frightened that she hid behind Webster's back.
When Gu Caiwei saw this, she quickly said, "Since Princess Anle can't trust me, I won't force you. But everyone is a woman. You have suffered too much in Luling County before, and you have been worrying all the time. You must not be healthy. Good. Now that you are back, remember to drink more chicken soup to nourish your body. There are also white fungus soup and yam paste, these are good things for nourishing yin and nourishing, as women, we can eat more."
Wechsler nodded repeatedly. "We have written down Madam Changning Hou's words, and I will let the kitchen prepare it later."
Gu Caiwei nodded and said nothing more.
When Princess Taiping heard this, her eyes flashed, and she looked meaningfully at Princess Anle, who was still hiding behind Wei Shi's back, and then turned her head. "Now that everyone is here, let's go to the back garden! I've already had someone bring over the best chrysanthemums in Luoyang City. There are all kinds of chrysanthemums in various shapes and colors. Keeping them will feast your eyes !"
"That's great! By the way, we've been in Luling County for so many years, and it's been a long time since we had a good view of flowers!" Webster laughed quickly.
Among this group of people, Gu Caiwei's status was the lowest, so she was naturally at the end.
However, she still heard Wei Shi's words clearly, and she frowned slightly—why did the princess put her posture so low?Even in order to get the support of Princess Taiping, she has already lowered her status to cater to horses!
No matter how difficult the life of King Luling in Luling County is, he is also the biological son of Her Majesty the Queen, and their basic necessities of life will not be bad.The whole family was always in fear, but it was just because they were afraid that the queen would suddenly think of it one day and send someone to kill them, and let them go to hell with the former prince Li Hong and others.
Just thinking about this, Gu Caiwei suddenly noticed a person appeared beside her.
"No matter what you saw just now, you are not allowed to mention it to anyone. As long as you dare to mention a word, I will kill you!" The girl's immature voice said something that did not match her age. .
Gu Caiwei looked back, she nodded quickly. "Princess, don't worry, I didn't see anything. Doctors pay attention to seeing, hearing, and asking. I haven't even felt your pulse. How can I know how your body is?"
Princess Anle snorted lightly. "You are wise!"
Then, he flicked his sleeves and quickly stepped forward to catch up with Princess Taiping, and called out sweetly: "Auntie!"
Gu Caiwei immediately shook her shoulders, and quickly rubbed the large goosebumps that popped out on her arms.
Looking at the lively figure who was already bouncing in the crowd, her eyes were dim.
"She's only 14 years old now, so no matter who she is... she's a beast!"
(End of this chapter)
No matter how unhappy she was, Gu Caiwei could only write a greeting card to Princess Taiping afterwards.
Princess Taiping really replied, inviting her to go to Luoyang to appreciate chrysanthemums.
Sandwiched in the middle of the reply is the title deed of a house in Luoyang.Look at that place, not far from the palace!
Holding this reply in her hand, Gu Caiwei had mixed feelings in her heart.
There are chrysanthemums everywhere, but go to Luoyang to enjoy the flowers... Even, in order to let her enjoy the flowers with peace of mind, Princess Taiping directly gave her a valuable house!This capital is also big enough.
"Now, Her Majesty the Empress has already got up and headed for Luoyang, the capital of God." Du Juanqing said, "Many important officials in the court have also followed, and so has Old Di Ge."
Gu Caiwei sighed helplessly.
Chang'an was originally the base of the Li Tang Dynasty. Since the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Her Majesty the Empress has designated Luoyang as the capital of God, that is, the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty. She spent almost half of her time in Luoyang.However, due to various reasons, she still has to come to Chang'an from time to time.Therefore, whether they are relatives of the emperor or important officials in the court, most of them have a house in Chang'an and Luoyang.
However, Du Juanqing did not.
Not only Du Juanqing, but also Lai Guo Gongfu!
When the Empress ascended the throne, the Duke of Laiguo had already been in poverty for many years, and they did not squeeze into the encirclement circle around the Empress, so naturally there was no need to follow Empress Chang'an and Luoyang.
In the end, who would have thought that a plume of green smoke would suddenly appear from the Du family's ancestral grave, and a Du Juanqing who could catch the eyes of the queen would be born out of nowhere?
Over the years, the housing prices in Luoyang have risen again and again. They want to buy a better house there, but they have to spend a lot of money.But they didn't even plan to live in that place for a long time, and it was a waste of money to buy it.
So now, if they really want to go to Luoyang, they seem to have no other choice but to live in the mansion arranged by Princess Taiping.
"Just in this way, we owe the princess another favor. If she asks us later, we can't refuse." Gu Caiwei said in a low voice.
"It's as if if she doesn't accept the house, she won't ask us. And as long as she asks, how can we refuse?" Du Juanqing immediately responded, "Don't you know the princess's temper? She can be courteous before fighting, which is to be polite to us on purpose. If we don't accept her kindness, she should do it directly. "
The corners of Gu Caiwei's mouth twitched.
But she also knew that what Du Juanqing said was the truth.Back then, didn't Princess Taiping just call her back and forth?Later, seeing Du Juanqing slowly gaining ground in Chang'an City, and she also showed certain abilities, Princess Taiping's attitude improved a little.
Gu Caiwei couldn't help but sigh again. "From this point of view, we must embark on this thief ship!"
"Then step on it! It's better than stepping on the pirate ship of the Wu family." Du Juan said calmly.
So, the matter of going to Luoyang was decided.
But when Gu Tianyuan and Du Yi heard that they were going to Luoyang soon, they were very happy.
"Father and mother, can we go to Luoyang with you? I haven't seen Erlang for a long time. I want to meet him first before going to Yongxing County." Du Yi said hastily.
Although he has grown to be much taller than Xiao Langjun of the same age, and under the tempering of Fufengzi, his skin has become dark and dark, and he can clearly see lumps of flesh on his arms and legs .Now that he goes out to fight, I'm afraid that other young gentlemen can't beat him!
But in front of Gu Caiwei, Du Yi was still like a little doll, softly holding her hand and acting coquettishly cute.
Gu Caiwei looked at this cheap son who had obviously grown up by more than two laps, and goosebumps rolled down her arms.This feeling is almost the same as Du Juanqing pretending to be pitiful and getting into her arms every time.
Gu Caiwei had mixed feelings in her heart.
On the one hand, she was touched by the fact that Du Yi was still so close to her.But on the other hand... With Du Yi's current honor, it's really not suitable for him to act like a baby anymore.
Gritting her teeth and taking a deep breath, she quickly rubbed Du Juanqing's head. "Go if you want! Anyway, if you go from Chang'an to Yongxing County, you only need to detour for two days on the way, and this time is nothing."
The two little guys cheered for joy, and hurried to prepare a gift for Xue Chongjian!
Two days later, Gu Caiwei and Du Juanqing packed their luggage, and they left for Luoyang.
But Qi Shi and Gu Chengfeng did not accompany them.
"Ah Wei, you've grown up and are married now. My father and mother won't accompany you on the next journey. You and your son-in-law remember to support each other, walk slowly, don't worry." Qi Shi only said this to her.
Gu Chengyuan looked at Du Juanqing. "I'll leave my daughter to you. Although she has a bad temper and was spoiled by us since she was a child, she never wants to suffer, but she definitely deserves your kindness to her."
"I know. I will always be nice to her." Du Juanqing nodded immediately.
After Gu Chengfeng and his wife finished explaining, they waved goodbye to Gu Caiwei and his wife, and they pedaled back to Xuzhou to live in seclusion.
Watching her parents' carriage go far away, Gu Caiwei couldn't help but shed tears, her eyes fixed on the direction of the carriage and refused to look back.
Du Juanqing quickly pulled her up. "Let's go! It's time for us to set off."
Gu Caiwei was slowly pulled into the carriage by her, and the driver immediately flicked his whip and led them towards Luoyang.
It's just that Gu Caiwei's spirit is still not very good because her soul has completely occupied this body, so they walked very slowly along the way.When they were still walking slowly on the morning road, Luling Wang's family had already returned to Luoyang.Then, Xiang Wang Li Dan took the initiative to give up the position of prince to King Luling, and King Luling became the prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty.Princess Wei of Luling was conferred the title of crown princess, and several of their children were also crowned kings and princesses one after another.
When Gu Caiwei and the others arrived in Luoyang, it was time for this family to show off.
Regarding this, Du Juanqing only said one sentence: "Now, Mr. Di Ge should feel at ease."
Gu Caiwei pursed her lips. "maybe!"
They were not familiar with the King of Luling, and now it was time for the new crown prince's family to communicate with others, so Du Juanqing and Gu Caiwei retreated to the side knowingly.
It's just that they want to stay away from right and wrong, but some people are not willing to let them be so leisurely - on the second day after they settled down in Luoyang, Princess Taiping ordered someone to send an invitation card, asking them to come to Luoyang in three days. Go to the princess's house for a banquet.
"It's time to come." Gu Caiwei pinched the invitation and glanced at it, then she casually threw it aside.
Du Juan didn't even notice it, he just nodded indifferently. "Since it's here, let's deal with it head-on. It's not a big deal in the first place."
"That's true." Gu Caiwei nodded.
So, three days later, the whole family dressed up and went to the princess mansion together.
This time, the princess' mansion was still full of guests.As usual, Gu Caiwei only made a few snacks and brought them over as a gift to Princess Taiping.
As soon as the concierge at the door saw this gift, he hurried forward to invite Gu Caiwei and Du Juanqing: "Is Madam Changning Hou here? The princess has been waiting for you for a long time, please come here with me!"
This incident immediately caused quite a commotion among the guests—in the past two years, as Her Majesty the Empress gradually loosened her grip on Princess Taiping, Princess Taiping gradually began to intervene in government affairs, and now she has a lot of control over her. right now.Especially this time, when King Luling's family returned to Luoyang, it was she who worked hard back and forth.In such a short period of time, she has already successfully matched the crown prince and many courtiers.
However, those who can be favored by Princess Taiping must be talents among talents.But the Marquis of Changning and his wife in front of them... Is the princess being too enthusiastic about them?Didn't they just discover an iron mine!They even gave the imperial court the current mining right of this iron mine!
Facing the gazes projected from all directions, Du Juanqing and Gu Caiwei remained calm.
"Really? Then please lead the way!" Gu Caiwei had known that she would not be able to escape today, so she simply treated it with a normal heart.
The concierge hurriedly nodded, and hurriedly called a maid to lead them to meet Princess Taiping at the back.
As for Du Juanqing and Gu Tianyuan, they naturally have their places to go.
At this time Princess Taiping was talking and laughing with several ladies.As soon as Gu Caiwei walked in, she saw a few small plates by Princess Taiping's hands, and there were a few exquisitely shaped pastries on the plates - those were the ones she had just delivered!
So fast, they had just delivered the things to the porter, and then they had already delivered them to the princess!
Seeing this, Gu Caiwei was slightly taken aback.
Princess Taiping has also discovered her, she immediately smiled and said: "Mrs. Changning Hou is really a big face! Last time, the princess just quarreled with you, and then you got angry, and you have ignored me until now. In a word. If I hadn't taken the initiative to find you this time, would you still not come to see me?"
Well, just after we met, she put a big hat on her head.Act like it's all her fault!
Obviously, they were doing their own thing at the beginning, so they couldn't go on anymore, okay?
But in front of so many people, Gu Caiwei still bowed her head and admitted her mistake. "I was wrong, please don't be as knowledgeable as me, my lord, princess."
"If I were as knowledgeable as you, would you still be able to stand here safe and sound?" Princess Taiping smiled lightly and waved at her, "Okay, come and sit down! I've forgotten everything about the past But the cakes you make are still as delicious as ever. Over the past year, I have hired so many cooks to make them, but I still can't make them taste that good, which is really strange!"
"Of course. If my cooking skills can be imitated casually, princess, would you still care about me so much?" Gu Caiwei has always been proud of her cooking skills.
Now, it was Princess Taiping's turn to be stunned for a moment, and she smiled and said, "You really are getting more and more courageous!"
"Thank you princess for your compliment." Gu Caiwei smiled and lowered her head, then Shi Shiran went over and sat down.
And when she just sat down, those noble ladies who were still sitting here just now received the signal from Princess Taiping and got up to leave one after another.
Seeing this, Gu Caiwei couldn't help but look at Princess Taiping again.
Princess Taiping pursed her lips. "Why, I'm not allowed to deliberately find a few people to strengthen the momentum, so as to severely suppress you, a rebellious little lady?"
Gu Caiwei chuckled: "Princess, you are too worried. Since I agreed to your invitation, it means that I have bowed my head on my own initiative. And the reason why you are doing this now is not that you want to use their identities to impose on me." Rather, you want to use their mouths to let others know that the Marquis of Changning has defected to you with his mine, right?"
Princess Taiping's eyes darkened for a moment. "Mr. Gu, as a woman, it's not a good thing that you are too smart. Especially if you speak so sharply, if you are not careful, you will bring yourself to death."
"Then princess, will you kill me?" Gu Caiwei only asked.
"Of course not. I have just started using you, so how can I be willing to kill you?" Princess Taiping slowly showed a smile, "Besides, since I know your true identity, I am even more reluctant. You said how could you hide it so well that you even deceived me!"
Sure enough, she also knew about that.
Gu Caiwei lowered her eyes. "If I say this kind of thing myself, how many people will believe it? If I say too much, I'm afraid I've already become a lunatic in the eyes of others."
"That's true." Princess Taiping nodded, she couldn't sit still anymore, but stood up instead, and took the initiative to circle around Gu Caiwei several times, looking her up and down, "But I see you, from the beginning Up to now, there is no sense of disobedience at all. How did you do it?"
"Princess, you are really embarrassing me. Until now, I don't know what's going on! Didn't Her Majesty send Qin Tianjian to observe before? They must know better than me." Gu Caiwei play dumb.
Although Princess Taiping was interested in what happened to her, she was not willing to say more when she saw her, so she didn't ask any more questions, and just said: "I think you already know the purpose of inviting you here this time."
Gu Caiwei nodded. "yes."
"Then I don't know what Madam Changning Hou thinks?"
"Do I still have a choice?" Gu Caiwei smiled lightly, "We have already had a quarrel with your husband's family, the princess, and several lives have been caused. Our dispute will not end in the future."
"The Wu family is the Wu family, not my husband's family." Princess Taiping interrupted her suddenly and coldly.
Gu Caiwei is kind and kind: "We and the Wu family are already at odds with each other, and the differences will only become bigger and bigger in the future. But we are weak, and if we continue to fight like this for a long time, we will suffer in the end. So, since now, princess, you take the initiative to ask We reach out, we're not going to hold it unless we're stupid."
Princess Taiping raised her eyebrows. "You answered so readily? Don't you need to discuss it with Marquis Changning?"
"We have already discussed this kind of matter before we came here, and we have already made a decision, so there is no need to say more." Gu Caiwei shook her head.
In today's world, they have no choice, so they don't need to put on airs and hesitate any longer. Everyone quickly speak up, and then assign tasks to each other and do their part well.
Princess Taiping couldn't help laughing out loud.
"Mrs. Changning Hou, you are such a wonderful person. I just like talking to you! I haven't dealt with you for more than a year. God knows how boring my life is!"
Gu Caiwei quickly bowed her head in a docile gesture.
Not long after, the servant girl outside came to report: "Prince Princess, Princess Xindu, Princess Yongtai, Princess Anle and others are here."
Princess Taiping's eyes brightened immediately, and she quickly waved to Gu Caiwei. "Let's go! Now that you're all grasshoppers on the same rope, I'll take you to meet a few more grasshoppers!"
If the princesses knew that Princess Taiping called them grasshoppers, how would they feel?
Gu Caiwei thought to herself, her feet still obediently followed Princess Taiping forward.
Soon, they met Crown Princess Wei's group on the way.
When we meet each other, it is natural to exchange pleasantries.
Princess Taiping warmly called Webster's sister-in-law, and Princess Xindu cordially called her aunt around Princess Taiping.
But Gu Caiwei was standing not far away, and she clearly didn't see much sincerity in the eyes of these people.Princess Taiping is better, but the princess and her party...
Perhaps because of suffering too much in Luling County, the Crown Princess Webster's face was visibly vicissitudes, and the thick powder on her face could not cover the fine lines around her eyes.Even now that she is the Crown Princess, she is very cautious in speaking and doing things in front of Princess Taiping, her sister-in-law. From time to time, she has to pay attention to the changes in Princess Taiping's face, lest she say something that will make her unhappy.
This is especially true for the sisters of Princess Xindu.They only listened to their aunt's long and short, which made Princess Taiping laugh from ear to ear.
A group of people kissed and talked for a long time before Princess Taiping led them over. "By the way, I almost forgot to introduce this one to you. This one is the wife of Du Junqing, Marquis of Changning. Marquis of Changning, you should know, right? He now owns an excellent iron mine in Yongxing County. Leading the swordsmiths under him to develop a new type of arrowhead and a new Mo Dao. Because of this, the empress praised them in public!"
The Crown Princess Wei Shi hurriedly nodded with a smile. "The name of Marquis of Changning is so resounding in the generation of Jingzhou Road. How could we not know it in Luling? It's just because of our status, we only hear his name but don't see him. This is a great pity."
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard a soft hum from her side: "We can't leave Luling County because of my father, but it doesn't mean that outsiders can't come to pay respects to my father! But from the beginning to the end At the end, they didn't even come here, they just sent a greeting card and a meeting gift, and then it's over! I think they just don't look down on us!"
"Bao'er, don't talk nonsense!" Hearing Wei Shi's words, she was so frightened that she quickly lowered her face and scolded.
The little lady who spoke was naturally Princess Anle, the youngest daughter born to Princess Wei and the prince.
Hearing this, Gu Caiwei couldn't help but look over there, and she realized that - this Princess Anle was born really well!
Even though she was only thirteen or fourteen years old, she was already undressed like a flower that is about to bloom. She is so beautiful that people can't forget it at the first sight.It's just that she is only young, and there is already a smear of hostility between her brows, and she can tell at a glance that she is a little lady with a violent temper.
and……
"what?"
Staring at her face and looking at the princess, Gu Caiwei suddenly let out a low cry between her lips, and her eyes were more and more fixed on the eyebrows and eyes of Princess Anle.
She discovered something amazing!
Princess Anle was furious at the look on her face. "Bold! Who allowed you to stare at the princess so disrespectfully?"
It wasn't until Gu Caiwei realized that she quickly lowered her eyes. "Princess, calm down. I've never seen a beautiful lady like you, and I was fascinated by it for a while."
But these words could not convince Princess Anle, on the contrary, it made her even more angry. "I look good, that's my business, you are a mere Mrs. Hou, what right do you have to stare at me? A country girl like you who doesn't understand the rules should have her eyes gouged!"
"Anle!" Upon hearing this, Princess Taiping couldn't help but lower her face, "Mrs. Changninghou is my guest today, how can you allow you to speak ill of her?"
When Princess Taiping was angry, Princess Anle's mother and daughter immediately became excited. Princess Wei quickly pulled her daughter to apologize: "Taiping, Anle is young and ignorant, and she grew up in Luling County. In the world, I have always been negligent in disciplining her, which led to this. As an elder, don't be as knowledgeable as her. "
As she said that, she quickly pulled Princess Anle again. "Aren't you going to admit your mistake to your aunt?"
Princess Anle bowed her head unwillingly. "Auntie, I was wrong."
The Crown Princess took the initiative to bow her head to her to admit her mistake, and Princess Taiping calmed down when she saw this.
Originally, she didn't intend to turn against them, so she changed her face and returned to her gentle face just now: "An Le, you really wronged Mrs. Changning Hou just now. To be honest, Mrs. Changning Hou was famous in her ancestors. The miracle doctor in the world, now she also got some true biography from her ancestors. You have suffered enough in Luling County before, and now you have finally come back. I am planning to ask her to feel the pulse of you all, and each of you will prescribe some medicinal food to take care of your body! "
This is her intention to reconcile the relationship between Gu Caiwei and Princess Anle.
When Gu Caiwei heard the words, she nodded quickly: "What the princess said is true. I have no other skills in my life, and I can only cook well. If the princess and princess don't dislike it, please let me show you Take a look!"
"That's it, that's great!" The Crown Princess Wei Shi hurriedly nodded with a smile, and stretched out her hand to Gu Caiwei on her own initiative.
In fact, she didn't believe that a young lady like Gu Caiwei could have much real ability.It's just that since Princess Taiping has already praised her to such an extent, I will take it as selling face to Princess Taiping.Anyway, she took back the prescription of the medicinal food, and it was up to her whether to eat it or not.
But I never thought that after Gu Caiwei felt her pulse, she immediately said: "Princess, you have been worrying too much these years, which has caused the five internal organs to stagnate, so your body is deteriorating slightly faster than your peers, and your memory is also slightly diminished. Now you need more Eat some sweets, and think more about happy places, so that you can open up your mind. Also, Luling County is located in the south, where the humidity is heavy. You have stayed there for so many years, and your physique is extremely damp and cold. Now, do you often feel weak all over your body and don’t get enough sleep? Moreover, even when you wake up, you still feel groggy and can’t concentrate on doing things?”
Every word she said hit Wei Shi's chest directly, making her heart beat faster.
The little lady in front of me is actually right!
In an instant, she looked at Gu Caiwei with a bit of admiration in her eyes, and she even took the initiative to ask: "Then I don't know how I should take care of it?"
"Actually, this problem is not a big deal. Concubine, you can just eat a small handful of barley every day. Barley removes dampness, but it has a certain cold nature. You can fry it for a while before using it. , stir-fry the cold air in the barley, and then cook porridge, or soup, or grind it to make pastries. I will write you a few desserts and a menu of barley. You can take it back and let the kitchen Just do it."
"Hey, don't you need to take medicine?" Wei Shi was taken aback again.
Now, before Gu Caiwei could speak, Princess Taiping laughed. "Sister-in-law, you really have lost your memory. Have you forgotten what I just told you? Mrs. Changning Hou is best at food therapy. She treats people with delicious food. She is not like those white-bearded doctors in the imperial hospital. You know how to prescribe those soups that are too bitter to drink for us."
Wechsler immediately smiled. "So that's the case! Then I'm relieved. If that's the case, I'll trouble Mrs. Changninghou."
In an instant, her attitude towards Gu Caiwei changed.
Gu Caiwei nodded with a smile, and felt the pulse of Princess Xindu again.
"Princess, you are still young and have a strong body, but your body is still too damp and cold, and it is humid and hot. Right now, you can't just eat barley, and you have to avoid it. You can't eat too much beef and mutton every time, but chicken and rabbit meat are better." You can eat more. But the chicken and rabbit meat has its own flavor after it’s done, and I’ll make some recipes for you later, and you can take it back and let the kitchen make it.”
Princess Xindu quickly nodded happily.
Then Princess Ngee An, Princess Xinning, Princess Yongshou...
Every time after taking the pulse, Gu Caiwei can accurately tell their physical condition, exactly.Then say something about what they eat, with cooking methods-even some of them are eating methods they have never heard of!
Immediately, everyone lost their aversion to taking medicine, and instead felt a little bit of anticipation.Therefore, their attitude towards Gu Caiwei became more and more cordial.
In the end, it was the turn of the youngest Princess Anle.
Gu Caiwei stretched out her hand Shi Shiran: "Princess, please give me your hand."
But Princess Anle immediately put her hands behind her back. "You don't need to look, there is an imperial physician in the East Palace. We have been seen by the imperial physician after we came back. What the imperial physician said is similar to what you said. From this point of view, you actually only have this little ability, so don't look any further!"
Gu Caiwei frowned, but Princess Taiping's face darkened again. "Anle, what are you doing? Your sisters have already shown it to Mrs. Changninghou, and now you are the only one left. What if you show her?"
"I don't need to look, I'm fine!" Princess Anle insisted.
When Wei Shi saw this, she suddenly flashed her eyes, and quickly smiled and said: "This child An Le is like this. We have spoiled her since she was a child. Now that she doesn't want to show it to Mrs. Changninghou, then don't look at it. Anyway, she She is still young, and there is nothing wrong with her body now. If there is any problem in the future, it will not be too late for us to invite Mrs. Changning Hou to come and see."
She insisted that there was 'nothing wrong with Princess Anle'.
After hearing this, Princess Taiping couldn't help staring deeply at Princess Anle for a long time.
Princess Anle was so frightened that she hid behind Webster's back.
When Gu Caiwei saw this, she quickly said, "Since Princess Anle can't trust me, I won't force you. But everyone is a woman. You have suffered too much in Luling County before, and you have been worrying all the time. You must not be healthy. Good. Now that you are back, remember to drink more chicken soup to nourish your body. There are also white fungus soup and yam paste, these are good things for nourishing yin and nourishing, as women, we can eat more."
Wechsler nodded repeatedly. "We have written down Madam Changning Hou's words, and I will let the kitchen prepare it later."
Gu Caiwei nodded and said nothing more.
When Princess Taiping heard this, her eyes flashed, and she looked meaningfully at Princess Anle, who was still hiding behind Wei Shi's back, and then turned her head. "Now that everyone is here, let's go to the back garden! I've already had someone bring over the best chrysanthemums in Luoyang City. There are all kinds of chrysanthemums in various shapes and colors. Keeping them will feast your eyes !"
"That's great! By the way, we've been in Luling County for so many years, and it's been a long time since we had a good view of flowers!" Webster laughed quickly.
Among this group of people, Gu Caiwei's status was the lowest, so she was naturally at the end.
However, she still heard Wei Shi's words clearly, and she frowned slightly—why did the princess put her posture so low?Even in order to get the support of Princess Taiping, she has already lowered her status to cater to horses!
No matter how difficult the life of King Luling in Luling County is, he is also the biological son of Her Majesty the Queen, and their basic necessities of life will not be bad.The whole family was always in fear, but it was just because they were afraid that the queen would suddenly think of it one day and send someone to kill them, and let them go to hell with the former prince Li Hong and others.
Just thinking about this, Gu Caiwei suddenly noticed a person appeared beside her.
"No matter what you saw just now, you are not allowed to mention it to anyone. As long as you dare to mention a word, I will kill you!" The girl's immature voice said something that did not match her age. .
Gu Caiwei looked back, she nodded quickly. "Princess, don't worry, I didn't see anything. Doctors pay attention to seeing, hearing, and asking. I haven't even felt your pulse. How can I know how your body is?"
Princess Anle snorted lightly. "You are wise!"
Then, he flicked his sleeves and quickly stepped forward to catch up with Princess Taiping, and called out sweetly: "Auntie!"
Gu Caiwei immediately shook her shoulders, and quickly rubbed the large goosebumps that popped out on her arms.
Looking at the lively figure who was already bouncing in the crowd, her eyes were dim.
"She's only 14 years old now, so no matter who she is... she's a beast!"
