040 Name Correction
The corners of Queen Mother Yuan's lips formed a hard line, and the bamboo shed above cast a faint shadow on her graceful face.
"Don't talk nonsense." Empress Dowager Yuan suppressed the turbulent emotions in her heart and said with a smile to herself, "Miss Gu has already made an engagement!"
Empress Dowager Yuan stared at Prince Kang intently and gripped the armrest tighter with her right hand.
She came to Prince Jing's Mansion today to choose a concubine for her son. Secondly, she also wanted to see Gu Yunchun. She planned to take a step back and let this girl become a concubine, which would satisfy her son's wishes.
But now, Empress Dowager Yuan changed her mind, and she felt unhappy with Gu Yunchun in her heart.
Her son has great talents and strategies, and he will be the one to dominate the world in the future. As a king, he cannot be obsessed with a woman.
Daji brought disaster to Shang Tang, and King You of Zhou used beacon fire to play with the princes because of a beautiful woman... As a monarch, being greedy for beauty is a sign of harm to the country!
"Mother, you are mistaken, that is Miss Gu Er's marriage." King Kang looked directly into Empress Dowager Yuan's sharp eyes and said sternly.
"..." Queen Mother Yuan was startled, and her first reaction was, isn't Gu Yunchun the second girl Gu?
Most of the other people around him were also confused.
King Kang summoned his personal servant, pointed in the direction of Zhuo Xin Water Pavilion and said: "Miss Gu Er is in the water pavilion. Go and call her."
Gu Yanfei and Gu Yunzhen in the water pavilion also heard it clearly. Gu Yunzhen frowned, and remembered the chaos in Yueji Pavilion just now, and the scene was fixed on Fang Mingfeng's bloody face.
After a while, the chamberlain in green clothes quickly entered the water pavilion and politely raised her hand to Gu Yanfei: "Miss Gu, the Queen Mother and His Highness Prince Kang invite the girl to come over and talk."
Gu Yanfei put down the tea cup, stood up leisurely, held down Gu Yunzhen who wanted to go with her, and said with a smile: "Sister, I'll be back as soon as I go."
The other people in the water pavilion all looked at her with different expressions.
"Miss Gu Er, please." The waiter in green stretched out his hand to make a sign of invitation.
Li Zhulang stared at Gu Yanfei's graceful back in despair, his shoulders hanging down in frustration, and a thought repeatedly echoed in his mind: The beauty is actually engaged?!
A graceful lady, a gentleman is a good man.
The beauty was engaged, so wouldn’t he have already completely lost before he could win!?
Li Zhulang stood frozen on the spot, about to cry but had no tears. The young boy patted his cousin on the shoulder comfortingly.
The autumn wind is blowing, and the road from the water pavilion to the polo field is extremely quiet. The "swishing" sound of the branches and leaves becomes clear, and the water vapor on the lakeside is brought by the wind to bring a bit of coolness.
Gu Yanfei walked to the other side of Gu Yunchuang in the eyes of everyone, and bowed to Empress Dowager Yuan. His movements were standard and yet showed a trace of spontaneity.
Prince Kang had no intention of paying attention to Gu Yanfei, or in other words, he didn't even look at her. He said coldly: "Tell the queen mother, are you and the British prince married at the fingertips?"
"No." Gu Yanfei said two words with a smile.
The smile spread lightly on her pretty little face, just like the sunrise after the clouds dispersed, and the branches were covered with half-opened begonia buds.
As the words "Gu Yanfei" came out, the people around him gradually became agitated, whispering to each other.
Today, many people have noticed Gu Yanfei's fresh face, especially her face, which is so beautiful and beautiful that it is very pleasing to the eye. No matter whether they are men or women, they can't help but take a second look.
However, most of them didn't know her identity. They only heard her surname was Gu and thought she was a girl from the Gu family.
Now it seems that this strange girl Gu seems to have "extraordinary origins"!
King Kang frowned and glanced sideways at Gu Yanfei. The little girl stood there obediently with a faint smile. It was hard to tell whether she was deliberately going against him or whether she didn't know about the engagement at all...
After suppressing his thoughts, King Kang stood with his hands behind his back, exuding a cold and stern aura, and said arrogantly and forcefully: "Fourteen years ago, when your grandfather was still alive, he made an agreement with the old Duke of the British government.
It is a matter of marriage, so that Gu Ce’s eldest daughter will marry Fang Mingfeng on the fingertips of her family..."
"His Royal Highness Prince Kang is right," Gu Yanfei cleverly picked up the other party's words and smiled calmly, "The person who is engaged to the British Duke is the eldest daughter of the eldest daughter of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion."
The ribbons on her hair were flowing in the wind, and her flowing skirt was flying. It was as bright as the cold moon. The girl seemed to be surrounded by an ethereal aura, which was in sharp contrast to the cold King Kang.
"The letters of appointment between the two families were written clearly and clearly." As she said that, Gu Yanfei turned her gaze to Gu Yunchun and continued, "As we all know, the eldest daughter of Xian Dingyuan Marquis is Gu Yunchun."
Gu Yanfei tilted her head and smiled and asked Gu Yunchuang, who was only half a foot away from her: "Yes or no?"
Gu Yunkuang's pupils narrowed slightly and the end of his eyebrows twitched.
King Kang also had a bad look on his face and stared at Gu Yanfei with squinted eyes before looking at Gu Yanfei with a straight eye.
Facing this pair of lovers, the smile on Gu Yanfei's face gradually deepened, but it was not as deep as the depth of her eyes.
In her previous life, after Gu Yanfei returned to Dingyuan Hou Mansion, she and Gu Yunkuang were recorded as twins in the names of their father Gu Ce and mother Xie. However, the Gu family never clearly introduced her identity to the outside world. Whenever they talked about her, they always
Vague.
At that time, she had been beaten and scolded since she was a child. Later, she was belittled, suppressed, and humiliated by Nanny Xu again and again. She became more and more cowardly. She was trapped in the Hou Mansion all day, not daring to interact with others, and did not
Opportunity to argue for yourself.
As a result, almost all the government offices in the capital did not know that she was the real legitimate daughter of the Hou family. They only regarded her as an orphan from a distant family and as an adopted daughter.
It is clear that she is the real bloodline of the Gu family, but instead she has become an unspeakable existence and is regarded as a fish eye pretending to be a pearl.
Until her death, her identity remained unclear...
This was also her inner demon, which once made her depressed when she was young.
It was like this again in this life, old things happened again, even if Gu Yunchun was adopted into the second house, the Gu family had no intention of clearing their name.
It didn’t happen in my previous life, it doesn’t happen now, and it definitely won’t happen in the future.
Gu Yanfei tilted his head slightly, looked at Gu Yunkuang who was very close at hand, and asked again: "Yes or no?"
A few strands of black hair on her cheeks slipped down with her movements, and the small pearl earrings swayed gently under her earlobes. There seemed to be bright light flowing through her eyes, which was so bright and attractive.
"..." The color on Gu Yunchun's face faded by three points, and her lips pursed slightly.
Gu Yanfei forced herself into a dilemma with just a few words.
No matter how she answers now, it's wrong.
If she answered yes, it would be equivalent to publicly admitting that Gu Yanfei was the only daughter of the eldest son.
