With the accession of the new emperor Zhao Zongquan to the throne, the ever-changing Tokyo Palace finally calmed down temporarily, but the Ningyuan Marquis Palace is now as noisy as a pot exploding.
"Brother, you can't stand still here!
Ting Ye must be recognized quickly!
Then our Gu family will be a wealthy family with one family and two marquises!" The fourth bedroom urged the eldest Gu Yan to open with a look of urgency.
"Brother, what the fourth child said makes sense!
Our Gu family is both prosperous and devastated!
Tingye is so promising now because he was taught well by our Gu family.
But now all the benefits are at the expense of the one named Sheng!" After hearing what the fourth room said, the fifth room also complained.
After hearing the words of the fourth and fifth houses, Ningyuan Hou Gu Yan was very happy and depressed. He didn't expect that "Bangchui" Sheng Hong, whom he had looked down on at the beginning, suddenly became rich overnight.
Not only did Sheng Hong's own eldest daughter become the royal concubine of Prince Huan, but his adopted son Gu Tingye also had the power to follow the dragon and became the upstart Marquis of Changsheng.
It was as if all the good things had been taken up by Sheng Hong alone. How could he not make the nobles in Tokyo jealous and jealous?
The Gu family of Ningyuan Marquis could not accept it the most, because in their eyes, Gu Tingye, the Changsheng Marquis, was originally the glory of their Gu family.
When Gu Tingye was expelled from the Gu family, Gu Yankai was still reluctant. He just wanted to teach Gu Tingye a lesson, let him understand the meaning of family, and let him feel the pain of being a "lonely ghost", so that he would naturally be honest in the future.
.
Gu Yankai waited for Gu Tingye to come back to him, begging for forgiveness from his father, but what he didn't expect was that Sheng Hong would suddenly cross paths and inexplicably recognize Gu Tingye as his adopted son, disrupting all Gu Yankai's plans.
plan.
"Master Hou, what the fourth uncle and the fifth uncle said makes sense!
We can't sit here and wait for death.
It was my fault at the beginning. I knew clearly that Ting Ye was ignorant, so I shouldn't have been serious with him!" Xiao Qin on the side knew that everyone regarded her as the culprit, so she could only express her position with a wry smile.
"Humph! As a legitimate mother, you have done your best!
It's all because of that evildoer who is too ignorant!
At first I expected that this evil obstacle would definitely come back and beg for my forgiveness when he could no longer survive outside!
Unexpectedly, Cheng Yaojin showed up halfway, and everyone was disrupted by Sheng Hong!"
"Master Hou, I heard that this Sheng Hong is planning to let Ting Ye marry the daughter of the Sheng family.
If this is really the case, our Gu family will never be able to reconcile with Ting Ye!" Xiao Qin suddenly said, pretending to be sad.
"Huh! What good thing does Sheng Hong have in mind?
The new emperor also has a palace, so it is impossible for him to see Sheng Hong get his wish!" Ningyuan Hou Gu Yankai said nonchalantly.
"Ah? Why is this?" Xiao Qin, the fourth and fifth bedrooms all showed puzzled expressions.
"Sheng Hong's legitimate daughter has become Princess Huan, and her adopted son Gu Tingye has also become the Marquis of Changsheng.
If Gu Tingye is allowed to do this again and marry the daughter of the Sheng family.
The Sheng family has become a monolith between the military and political circles!
Do you think the new emperor is willing to see this?"
"It's true! What the Marquis said makes sense!
Since the new emperor will not support Sheng Hong, let's not consider the matter of recognizing Ting Ye for now.
What we need most is to help Gu Tingye contact a daughter from a high family as soon as possible, and then marry Gu Tingye, causing conflicts between Tingye and the Sheng family!" Xiao Qin suddenly made a sinister "destructive move".
Hearing Xiao Qin's "damaging move", the three Gu brothers' eyes lit up, but the fourth brother said worriedly, "Sister-in-law, this is a good idea!
But with the current tense relationship between our Gu family and Ting Ye, it is impossible for Ting Ye to accept our arrangement!"
"Haha, Lord Marquis, Fourth Uncle, Fifth Uncle, you have forgotten that there is a new emperor!
We can definitely ask the new emperor to decree a marriage!
Could it be that Ting Ye and Sheng Hong will still disobey His Majesty?" Xiao Qin said confidently.
"Haha, yes!
In this way, Gu Tingye can only accept our arrangement.
We don’t need the Gu family’s intervention!” The three Gu family brothers were moved, and they all believed that Xiao Qin’s plan was feasible.
"It's just that, sister-in-law, do you have a suitable candidate for the wife?" Fourth Fang asked the most important question.
"Your Majesty, Fourth Uncle, Fifth Uncle, the new emperor has just ascended the throne and urgently needs the support of the distinguished nobles in Tokyo.
If Gu Tingye is arranged to marry the only daughter of a British official, the new emperor will definitely be happy to see it happen!"
"British Duke Zhang family?" The three brothers of the Gu family all looked shocked.
"Hmph! You have a good idea!
But how could a British prince like a villain like Gu Tingye?" Ningyuan Marquis Gu Yankai still looked down upon his son, and his tone was unavoidable with some disdain.
"Master Hou, you are a fan of the authorities!
Now Tingye has become the representative of the younger generation of the military.
He is also the Marquis of Changsheng, whom His Majesty personally conferred.
The British father must be very satisfied!"
"Besides, no matter whether this matter succeeds or not, it will cause a rift between Gu Tingye and Sheng Hong!
Maybe it will make Sheng Hong offend the British government!"
"Yeah! What the lady said makes sense!
I will discuss the next matter with the British Duke!" Ningyuan Hou Gu Yankai nodded and said.
At different times, people's mentality is completely different.
Gu Tingye has now been expelled from the Gu family tree, and the eldest son of the Gu family is short-lived. In the end, the title of Marquis of Ningyuan still belongs to her biological son Gu Tingwei of the Xiao Qin family.
In order to prevent accidents from happening, the only way is to let Gu Tingye go further outside, so that he will have no chance to come back and compete with Gu Tingwei for the Gu family's property.
...
Tokyo, Prince Huan's Mansion.
The old lady of the Wang family, the members of the Wang family and Wang Ruofu waited anxiously at the gate of Prince Huan. They were soon taken into the main hall of Prince Huan's palace. Wang Ruofu also met the eldest daughter Sheng Hualan, who was rising rapidly.
"Hua Lan, mother finally met you! How have you been in the past few years?" Wang Ruofu looked at his daughter in front of him with surprise on his face.
"Mom, father treats us brothers and sisters very well, you don't need to worry!" Looking at her mother Wang Ruofu in front of her, Sheng Hualan felt very complicated in her heart.
"Hmph! Hua Lan, don't mention your father to me!
Your father is the most heartless person!
It is also your own destiny that you can become Prince Huan's concubine now!
When I proposed to divorce him, he should have knelt down and apologized to me and the Wang family!
Then follow the arrangements of our Wang family!" Wang Ruofu became angry when he heard Hua Lan mention Sheng Hong.
"Mom, we haven't seen each other for a long time, why are you slandering my father like this?" Sheng Hualan felt a little unhappy when she heard Wang Ruofu insulting her father, Sheng Hong.
Hearing Sheng Hualan's accusation against him, Wang Ruofu was suddenly stunned. Mrs. Wang on the side quickly smiled and said, "Hua'er, you have always known your mother best!
She has always been so mean-spirited, Hua'er, don't mind!"
“Grandma’s words are serious!
My mother will always be my mother, and my father will always be my father!
My father never insulted my mother in front of us juniors, and we also did not allow my mother to slander our father!
And grandma, I am Princess Huan now, there are some things I still need to pay attention to!"
"Yes! Yes! What the princess said makes sense!"
Seeing that Sheng Hualan was no longer as close to her as before, Wang Ruofu was extremely sad. She couldn't understand the reason for all this.
She loves these three children so much, but Ru Lan has been staying in her hometown in Youyang and has never sent her a letter!
His son Sheng Changbai, who is also in Tokyo and very close to him, has never been to the Wang family to visit him.
Even when he took Mother Liu to visit Sheng Changbai, he dealt with her casually.
When she heard that her eldest daughter Sheng Hualan had been arranged by Sheng Hong to be a concubine for a down-and-out royal family, she was filled with grief.
Finally, when I heard that Sheng Hualan had changed fortunes and became the wife of King Huan, I wanted to come to my daughter to celebrate, but my daughter was so unhappy.
Wang Ruofu suddenly felt like she had been abandoned by the whole world and was not liked by her relatives.
In fact, she didn't know that she had abandoned everything.
Just because of her fear at the beginning, and because she listened to the advice of her natal Wang family, she mistakenly believed that her future rested entirely on the Wang family, not her husband's Sheng family.
