After Gu Si returned home, he proposed the marriage again.
Because I was in a good mood and expressed some of my life insights, everyone supported me, so I went to propose marriage.
After the Gu family proposed marriage, the old lady ordered someone to invite Jinghou back from the inn, who was "going to mourn".
In fact, Jinghou has been paying close attention to the affairs in the mansion. Although he knows that the situation has improved, but then another Princess Wei came to Jinghou mansion. He was always afraid of getting into trouble, so he continued to hide. Now that the Gu family came to propose marriage, he paid attention to it.
Unexpectedly, he hurriedly packed his things and came back with his concubine, Mrs. Zhou.
Yuan Qingling also returned to live in Jinghou Mansion. Yuan Qingping threw herself into her arms and said shyly and incomprehensively.
Yuan Qingling couldn't help but laugh when she remembered that when she first returned to her parents' home, this sister had scolded her fiercely, and now she had turned into this little girl.
She then smiled and said, "There's nothing puzzling about it. Gu Si has liked you a long time ago. As for parents, as long as their son likes it, they will always support it."
Yuan Qingping twirled his handkerchief, his eyes sparkling, "Are you really sure he likes me?"
"If someone doesn't like you, why do they want to propose marriage? Do you want to have sharp teeth and a sharp mouth?" Yuan Qing said with a smile.
Yuan Qingping blushed, "How do I know?"
The two sisters talked for a while and then came in quietly, holding hands behind their backs.
He first sent Yuan Qingping out, sat down, and asked Yuan Qingling, "Did the Emperor really say that to you? Do you really want to pursue the matter at the Princess Mansion?"
"If we don't pursue the matter, why should I go back to my parents' home?" Yuan Qingling asked.
Jinghou looked at her and frowned slowly, "But the prince always comes to find you."
"The emperor is pursuing it, not the prince. I am still pregnant with his child. Can he come and see me?"
After listening to these words, Jing Hou's newly raised hopes were shattered again, and he couldn't help but resent her.
Thinking of his plan, he said: "Now that the matter has come to this, there is no other way. My father has asked your second wife to find a pregnant woman who is about the same age as you. If you give birth to a son, then there is no need."
Go up, I can naturally avoid disasters in the waiting house, but if you give birth to a daughter, replace her with her, and don’t make a fuss. As your daughter’s father, she will naturally order people to take good care of her. In short, everything should be based on the overall situation, and you can’t
Wayward, now that your second sister has become a noble relative, when the time comes, ask Mr. Gu to say a few words of kindness in front of the emperor, and our Jinghou Mansion will hopefully be able to maintain its current wealth."
Yuan Qingling was really angry and funny after hearing this.
She was not angry, but asked calmly, "Father, when I gave birth, there would be people from the palace, and Dr. Cao would be there to guide the delivery. My daughter would like to ask you, how did you hide it?"
Jinghou thought about it and said: "Po Wen will come over to stay in advance, and my father will take care of things. As for the imperial doctor, my father also wants to give a thousand taels of silver, but this matter has to be discussed.
Okay, you have to come up with the money, I just want to come forward and negotiate."
Yuan Qingling was shocked by his "simpleness" and asked: "You mean, for your thousand taels of silver, the imperial doctor is willing to risk the lives of the whole family to help me change my life?"
"Wealth is sought in danger. The imperial doctor is a fifth-grade doctor. The annual salary combined is only two hundred silver. A thousand taels of silver is quite a lot. Or do you think how much can I give?" I waited for my brain to think of this idea.
Why can't it work? He was not convinced.
Yuan Qingling looked at him for a while and said, "Father, please resign, okay?"
Jinghou asked: "If you resign, will the emperor spare us?"
"The prince will plead for mercy." Yuan Qingling felt that he could no longer be involved in officialdom. How did he get here in the past few years?
Why not die stupidly?
Jinghou said grandly: "If resigning can get the emperor to let us go, I, as a father, will not be attached to the official position."
In fact, he couldn't pass the test either.
In previous years, the assessment was all about giving favors and giving gifts, which cost a lot of money to maintain the current official position. After the incident at the Princess Mansion, I offended the chief minister, and no one accepted it.
