The man in black lowered his head and said: "The younger ones also wanted to use their swords to deal with the people earlier.
However, before the younger ones took action, a group of people dressed in the same costume rushed over. The younger ones thought they were the ones guarding Er Ye Ning, and the confrontation with them took some time."
"People dressed up the same as you?" Duke Chengguo asked with a frown.
The man in black leaned forward and responded, "Yes! Finally, when we saw the other party attacking Mr. Ning, the younger ones realized that the other party had the same goal as ours."
Duke Chengguo asked: "Do you know who the other party is?"
The man in black shook his head, "I don't know. Princess Changle's people have arrived, and those people left first."
Duke Chengguo thought for a moment and said, "Go down."
The man in black bowed and stepped back.
Mrs. Cui, who was beside Duke Chengguo, murmured: "It's so good, why did Princess Changle appear in Qinggangpo?"
Manager Huang leaned forward and said: "Back to the old lady, it is said that the empress is ill, and Princess Changle went to Baoen Temple to hold a prayer meeting for the empress."
Mrs. Cui and Duke Chengguo looked at each other quickly and asked at the same time: "Mother, are you feeling ill?"
Manager Huang nodded, "That's what I heard from the letter."
Duke Chengguo waved his hand and said, "You go down first."
Manager Huang bowed in agreement, lowered his hands and stepped out.
Duke Chengguo turned to look at Mrs. Cui and asked, "Does Madam know that your Majesty is ill?"
Mrs. Cui shook her head, "I don't know, I haven't been in the palace for some days.
The empress has not sent a message asking me to go into the palace to talk. Therefore, I really don’t know about this matter."
Duke Chengguo's face turned even darker, and after a while he said: "Your Majesty is ill. Your Majesty did not tell us about such a big matter. It is not a small matter.
You go to the palace tomorrow and have a look. Let me tell you that the empress has asked Changle to go to Baoen Temple to hold a prayer meeting. It means that the empress is seriously ill and we should pay attention to her.
Furthermore, you can also test a few things and see how much your Majesty knows about today's events."
The more Duke Chengguo talked, the more uneasy he felt.
Regarding the marriage between Sister Yi and Brother Le, because of Brother Le's attitude, the empress was obviously on Brother Le's side.
They want to force Brother Le to marry Sister Yi. If the empress finds out, she will definitely disapprove.
Mrs. Cui nodded, "Yes, I understand. I will go to the palace early tomorrow morning to have a look."
Duke Chengguo thought of Princess Changle and reminded her, "Feel free to test your concubine's words about Brother Gu's marriage."
Mrs. Cui's expression paused, she raised her head to look at Duke Cheng Guo, and asked: "Master Guo really wants our brother Gu to marry Chang Le?"
Duke Chengguo picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, then put the teacup back on the table, looked at Mrs. Cui, and asked, "What? Isn't Madam not happy that Brother Gu will marry Changle?"
Mrs. Cui curled her lips with disdain, "What's so good about Changle? If you marry a high-ranking princess, the whole family will have to treat her as an ancestor.
Brother Gu couldn't even raise his head from now on. In front of her, Brother Gu didn't even dare to speak loudly.
I, the son of the Wu family, are all upright men, but just because I married a princess, I have to be humble in front of a woman. Just thinking about it, I am not worthy of Brother Gu."
Duke Chengguo sighed, picked up the tea cup and continued drinking tea.
Duke Chengguo did not accept Mrs. Cui's words, but he agreed with her words in his heart.
If possible, who would marry a princess? Isn’t there no other way?
Mrs. Cui continued: "If Brother Gu marries Changle, how will he be able to hold his head high in front of his classmates and friends in the future?
This is the second and most important thing. If Brother Gu becomes the consort, his future will come to a halt.
Even if Brother Gu is talented, capable, and full of ambition, it is all in vain."
Two grandchildren, brother Xuan is considerate and sensible, brother Gu is talented and has a talent for reading.
She had already thought about it for them. In the future, Brother Xuan would inherit the title and Brother Gu would be promoted to the official position.
The two brothers supported each other in the court, and together they wrote a glorious story that shone brightly on the lintel of the Chengguo Palace.
Duke Chengguo looked at his aggrieved old wife, let out a long sigh, and said, "You only have Brother Gu in your eyes."
Mrs. Cui pushed back unconvinced, "I am my own grandson. If I don't feel sorry for my grandson, who will?"
Duke Chengguo said angrily: "What are you talking about? What about your grandson? Brother Gu is just your grandson? Not my grandson?"
When Mrs. Cui saw that Duke Chengguo was angry, she shut up and refused to answer.
Duke Chengguo sighed, knocked on the table with his hand, and then said: "In your eyes, you only see Brother Gu being wronged, but you don't see other people's contributions to the family."
Mrs. Cui had a sullen face and said nothing.
Duke Chengguo looked at his old wife, lowered his voice and continued: "You don't know the position of Changle in the emperor's heart?
Whether it’s the empress or the prince, how much effort has been put into Changle in order to win the emperor’s trust? Can’t you see this?”
Mrs. Cui muttered: "Because of this, I can't calm down physically and mentally.
This Changle has already made my daughter suffer a lot, and he wants to make my grandson suffer too? I am not happy."
Duke Chengguo raised his finger and pointed at Mrs. Cui, stuttering angrily, "You, you, why can't you understand?"
Mrs. Cui looked up at Duke Chengguo and asked, "Which sentence did I say wrong?
How many tears did the empress shed for Concubine Zhen back then? It’s not like the Duke of Guo didn’t know! How many years have passed? Has the Duke of Guo forgotten it?
Yuan was named a concubine as soon as she entered the palace, and the emperor favored her alone.
If it weren't for the etiquette of the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month, the emperor might have forgotten Qin'er as the queen.
With Concubine Zhen gone, I thought that my empress could live a few more years of peace of mind. What was the result?
Over the years, the empress tried her best to please Changle in order to win the emperor's favor.
How many grievances did the empress suffer during this?
As a father, how much do you know?
Now, I still want her to marry into the house, so that we, old and young, can look at her face.
You are generous, generous and magnanimous, that is your business, don't let me give her a good look."
Mrs. Cui vomited out all the resentment she had accumulated over the years.
"It's really short-sighted. It's like a bean and it doesn't understand the general situation." Chengguo Gong slapped the table repeatedly and gasped in anger.
Mrs. Cui straightened her back, straightened her neck, and looked at Duke Chengguo angrily.
She complained about her daughter. What was wrong with her?
After a while, Duke Chengguo was defeated first, looked away, and leaned back.
After letting himself calm down for a while, Duke Chengguo suppressed the anger in his chest.
He lowered his voice and tried to reason with Mrs. Cui, "Madam, this is not how we look at it.
For a family to be prosperous and prosperous, there must be people who contribute to the family.
No matter Brother Xuan or Brother Gu, they were born in such a family and lived a life of fine clothes and jade since childhood.
They have inherited the good life provided by their family, and they have the responsibility and obligation to contribute to the prosperity of the family."
