Just a few months after being favored by the noble Yi, he lost his favor. The whole Gu family was just terrified, and Princess Huaike had to go to the palace to plead guilty.
"I live alone in the princess's mansion. I really don't know that the female members of the Gu family are being restrained by everyone..." Huai Ke really felt wronged. At the same time, he secretly cursed Gu Cong countless times. The well-behaved Manchu family insisted on calling the female members.
Just imitate the little feet of that lazy guy! Don’t imitate the really good ones, only imitate the bad ones! It’s also causing my son to be punished by you too!
Of course Shu Jin believed that Huai Ke didn't know about it. After all, Huai Ke and A Fu had been separated for many years and their relationship was very cold. He asked Aunt Lan Ruo to help her up and comforted her: "Gu Rong was just implicated, and you and your son were not at fault."
.Didn’t the emperor also fine him his salary? The emperor had an attack, and the matter was over."
Gu Yan, Gu Cong and his son were capable ministers and officials. After Hong Zhou hammered it, they would naturally continue to use it.
Only then did Huai Ke feel a little relieved, "With the words of the emperor's mother, I will feel relieved. That noble Yi——"
Shu Jin simply said: "The queen is virtuous and will not deprive her of food, clothing and chewing."
Huai Ke smiled bitterly. She was worried about such trivial matters as food, clothing and food. But she also knew in her heart that Yi Guiren had lost her Sacred Heart. By next year, I'm afraid it would be time for the draft, and by then the newcomers would be admitted.
I'm afraid nothing will happen to her.
Alas, she recommended her husband's cousin, firstly so that her son could be supported by his uncles and ancestors, so that his future would be brighter, and secondly, she wanted to please the emperor so that she, the princess, could maintain her glory.
Unexpectedly—oh, it’s all the Gu family’s family tradition that is ruined!
"Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings." Shu Jin tactfully reminded him. In these years, Huai Ke has either worried about his mother and brother, or worked hard for his son. Why bother? Just enjoy the blessings! Gu Rong has actually been very successful.
Not bad! Let him work hard for the rest! You must know that the more Adou tries to help him, the less effective he becomes!
Huai Ke heard something in the Queen Mother's words, and she lowered her head in embarrassment, "That's what the Queen Mother taught me."
Shu Jin didn't want to teach her a lesson. Huai Ke was no longer young. He was worried inside and out, and looked several years older. Standing in front of her, he looked like her junior?
"The children of the Gu family are honest and capable, and the emperor still needs to use them." Shu Jin hurriedly comforted him.
Huai Ke felt a little relieved now, "Yes, I will be kind enough to remind you to agree with Brother Rong, and I will do my best to do things faithfully in the future."
After seeing off Princess Huaike, Shu Jin hurriedly drank a cup of almond juice and then breathed a long sigh of relief. This Huaike just didn't know how to lie down.
Huai Ke returned to his own garden. Before his buttocks were warm, the eunuch came to report quickly: "Princess, it's not good! The concubine has fainted from anger!"
Huaike's head was as big as a bucket. Ever since E's mother went to Kejun Prince's Mansion to be raised, she always fell ill every now and then. At first, she thought it was Dong E's lack of filial piety, but then she gradually realized that it was her E's mother.
Looking for trouble!
Hongshi has never had any heirs. This is not Dong E's fault! It's not like there are no young and healthy concubines in Hongshi's house, but there has been no one for so many years. Whose fault is this? Isn't it obvious!
Huai Ke didn't insist on this anymore, he just looked forward to adopting an heir in the future and asked Hong Shi not to cut off his incest.
But E Niang didn't think so. She always felt that it was Dong E who was causing trouble! First, she made a fuss and asked the imperial doctor to examine the concubine Gege of Manfu. When no problem was found, she said that Dong E had bribed the imperial doctor and so on...
…In short, it was a very unpleasant scene.
"Just say I'm sick and can't go." Huai Ke closed his eyes and pretended to be sick and hid.
Princess Huaike knew her mother's nature well and thought that Concubine Qi must be pretending to be ill again.
Of course, Concubine Qi did pretend to faint, but this time, she failed to call her daughter to fight for her. Concubine Qi was very angry, and then - she became angry and sick.
It's really sick now.
But Princess Huaike still felt that her mother was still pretending, so she continued to pretend to be sick.
Then, when he found out that Hongshi sent someone to invite her, saying that Concubine Qi was seriously ill, Huaike suddenly woke up.
In the winter of the second year of Taihe, Princess Li of Qi died of illness in the Prince's Mansion of Ke County.
Another dowager died.
When the news came, Shu Jin was playing cards in the warm pavilion of Cining Palace. Concubine Maodegui, Concubine Mi, and Concubine Fucha, who was good at playing cards, just joined the table.
Shu Jin's luck was good or bad today, winning and losing equally, but Concubine Shu and Concubine Mi lost more than they won.
Hearing that Concubine Qi passed away, there was a moment of silence in the Nuan Pavilion.
"She lived a good life during her confinement in the past. Now she has been raised in Prince Ke's Mansion, but her life is not comfortable anymore." Shu Jin shook her head. She had no sympathy for Concubine Qi at all. She would not live a good life, so she insisted.
The whole family was disturbed by the commotion. As a result, he himself was troubled to death.
Concubine Mi, who also had a son, was very good at being a mother-in-law and would rather stay in the palace than go to Prince Chen's Mansion to take care of her old age.
Concubine Mi spat: "Son, my daughter-in-law is filial, but she still thinks it's not enough! Now it's better, Prince Ke has just paid paternal filial piety, and he has to observe maternal filial piety for three more years!"
Concubine Maodegui spoke even more harshly: "This will make it even more difficult for Prince Ke to have an heir! Even after she dies, she won't even let her son have an easy time! What a scourge!"
Shu Jin secretly laughed, Hong Shi probably had something wrong with his body. Otherwise, how could he have only given birth to a son and a daughter after so many years, and the son was born weak and died early?
Concubine Shu Fucha said weakly: "Empress Dowager, do you still want to play this card?"
Shu Jin took a look at his bad cards, then threw them down and said, "I won't fight anymore!"
Concubine Shu breathed a sigh of relief. She really couldn't save this game of cards.
Concubine Mi covered her lips and smiled, "Concubine Shu, you have worked really hard."
Concubine Shu immediately responded with a smile: "Playing cards with the Queen Mother and concubines is my blessing. How can it be hard?"
Concubine Maodegui couldn't help but laugh. This concubine was not only good at playing cards, but also good at talking sweetly.
Everyone moved to Dong Nuan Pavilion to have tea. Concubine Shu took a sip of Biluochun and said with a smile: "I heard that the emperor plans to select Gege, a close member of the clan, to be his adopted daughter."
Shu Jin nodded: "That's what happened." However, the candidate has not been decided yet.
Hong Zhou was reluctant to marry his own daughter to Fanmeng, so he had to sacrifice other people's daughters.
Concubine Shu said cautiously: "Empress Dowager, can this child Jingshu still catch your eye?"
Shu Jin was stunned for a moment, that is your sister's only daughter!
Concubine Maodegui was holding tea in her hand, and she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows and asked: "You are willing to give up Sifu Jin?"
Concubine Shu said: "Daughters from nearby clans often marry far away. It would be great if they could get the blessing of opening a palace." - Although Hongli was buried as Baylor, he was not Dorothy after all.
Baylor, Jingshu is just an ordinary clan member. But in terms of status, Jingshu is the granddaughter of the late emperor, so she is naturally qualified to enter the palace as an adopted daughter. However, the emperor hates Hongli, so Concubine Shu does not dare to appear in front of the emperor.
I opened this mouth, so I first explored the Queen Mother's tone of voice.
Shu Jin asked: "So, Sifu Jin is willing to do so?"
Concubine Shu said with a smile: "Others would like to be willing to receive this kind of blessing, but they wouldn't have the chance!"
Shu Jin couldn't help but think of that well-behaved, elegant and well-behaved child - Jing Shu was not like Yong Lin, but she still had a viscount title. This child's future marriage would also be a big problem. If he was unfortunately accused of cheating,
I'm afraid it will get worse. Rather than this, it would be better to invite yourself into the palace.
"Jingshu, you are very good." Shu Jin slowly nodded.
