That night, after Gu Qingyan and An Huajin played chess for half a day, they returned to Gu's house.
Mr. Gu was still waiting for him in his house tonight. When he saw him coming back in the wind and rain, his beard curled up, he said, "You brat, you have been looking forward to it for so many days, and now the An family's little girl has come to Beijing. Are you finally happy?"
”
Gu Qingyan sat down and asked seriously, "Grandpa, do you feel that you are young when you are older?"
Mr. Gu: "..."
He glared, "Are you trying another way to accuse me of being nosy?"
Gu Qingyan smiled, her eyebrows were indeed very relaxed, which showed that she was in a very good mood, "I see that you are indeed very free. In addition to caring about your grandchildren every day, can't you care more about your other brothers and sisters?"
Mr. Gu pretended to be angry, "Everyone else is very nice. What should I care about? Since you were a child, you have been the most rebellious. How can you do that if I keep looking at you?"
He was afraid that if he wasn't careful, he would be tricked by the little girl from the An family into going to Nanyang to be his son-in-law. He couldn't accept this result, and would have to die of physical and mental exhaustion.
Gu Qingyan understood the hidden meaning of Mr. Gu's words and sighed secretly. They said that since ancient times, it is difficult to have both loyalty and filial piety. In his opinion, it is also difficult to have both. Since ancient times, it is also difficult to have both affection and affection.
"What did you do with the An family's little girl today?" Mr. Gu still wanted to know more, but he didn't want to be a blind man. Once something goes wrong, it will be too late.
Gu Qingyan smiled with a happy expression, "Begging for tricks under the cucumber stand and playing chess all night again."
Mr. Gu was stunned, "What kind of trick is this?"
Gu Qingyan laughed out loud, "This is also the first time I've heard of it. Maybe it's Nanyang's Seven Skills Technique?"
He wanted to laugh when he thought of An Huajin and him squatting under the cucumber stand, and the little girl was not sure whether squatting was right or not. At that time, he really wanted to be with her forever like that.
Mr. Gu shook his head, "I really don't understand the thoughts of you young people. They are all weird ideas."
Gu Qingyan smiled and stopped answering.
Mr. Gu asked, "But we found out who assassinated her?"
"The dead soldiers raised by Zhang Chengze who stayed outside the capital were used by Hua Siyu, and Hua Siyu..." Gu Qingyan paused, and said truthfully, "They were used by my sixth cousin, who took the opportunity to kill her and deal with her at the same time.
Me."
Mr. Gu's face was heavy, "Did that kid An Zhi do such a big thing when he came back? Are you sure he was the one who instigated Hua Siyu?"
"Yes." Gu Qingyan nodded, "Besides me, he is the one who can calculate the nebula map so accurately. There is no one else in the world who can do it so accurately."
"It's been four years." Mr. Gu felt that this was not a small matter, "You have all grown up, why are you still the same as when you were a child? The same goes for that kid Kishi. Does he know what he is doing? Killing the little princess of Nanyang Prince's Palace, so
What is his involvement in such a big thing?"
"I'm afraid that he will choose the master and vote for him, and that person is not His Majesty the Seventh Highness." Gu Qingyan said.
Mr. Gu's expression changed. In this way, it makes sense for Wang An to kill An Huajin.
Mr. Gu was silent for a while and sighed, "If your grandfather was alive, he could always control him, but unfortunately, he passed away long ago. And An Zhi, that boy is his legitimate son and grandson, and the Wang family will be his in the future. If so,
He really chose his master, which is not a good thing."
Gu Qingyan nodded, naturally this is not a good thing.
"You haven't seen him since he came back, right? I think you should meet and talk to him." Mr. Gu said, "Even if you have been engaged to the little girl of the An family, even if you two are in love now
, but you are you, and our Gu family is our Gu family, and we cannot get involved in the struggle for power between the old and the new. Neither should the Wang family. If a wealthy family wants to establish itself in the world, it cannot get involved in the struggle for imperial power. Don't let that child go.
Crooked."
"I hope it's just my guess." Gu Qingyan said, "I saw him today, and I'm afraid his idea of taking an interest in Princess An will not go away easily. In the past four years, he has been missing since he left the capital.
Now that I have returned, I will never be willing to just be the heir to the royal family."
Mr. Gu rubbed his brows and said, "You must handle this matter properly. It is best to pass the transition smoothly without causing turmoil in the world. Otherwise, Nanliang and Nanqi will take the opportunity to raise troops, which will cause internal and external troubles, and Dachu will not be able to bear it." "Your Majesty, there are too many princes." Gu Qingyan said quietly, "We can only do our best and obey fate."
Mr. Gu was speechless for a moment.
Indeed, from ancient times to the present, there has never been an emperor who has so many princes and princesses under his body, and now, Hua Siyu is happy again. Your Majesty’s ability to sow seeds is truly extraordinary. Let Mr. Gu, who is so young,
I have nothing to say.
On the second day, Chu Chen, the Minister of Punishment, and the Minister of Dali Temple, after some discussion, jointly interrogated the three departments of An Huajin's robbery and murder case in Beijing.
Although Chu Chen had a confession in his hand, in order to make this case known to everyone, he did not produce the confession for the time being. He followed the people from the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple to interrogate this and that in a decent manner, which made a lot of noise.
Allow people to watch.
The emperor didn't care at all. He was immersed in the joy of the flowers like jade. He was very happy and rewarded them lavishly. Then, he made the unworthy flowers like jade his concubine.
She is also the first of the nine concubines.
The purpose of this title is to allow Hua Xiyu to have a good fortune, give birth to the prince safely, and make mother and child go smoothly.
All the concubines in the harem were very angry. Except for the queen, women with high status and good family background could reach high positions immediately after entering the palace. Ordinary women with poor family background were all working hard to improve their grades.
No woman, who was nothing, was awarded the title of the first of the nine concubines in one leap. Is the flower like jade going to heaven?
The women in the harem all gathered at the queen's place, and they were angry and crying uncontrollably.
The queen also felt that the emperor had gone too far. Although the previous emperor was lustful, at least he knew how to measure his limits. At least ten years ago, he would not grab a prisoner from the prison and bring him into the palace to favor him. Now he does not care about anything.
I even stuffed raw and cold food into my stomach. Is it because people are middle-aged and the sun is declining, so they become more and more beautiful?
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
It’s just that he is so beautiful, but look what he has done? He made her a concubine in a grand manner. How long has it been since the sixth prince’s case? He is really not afraid of violating the world’s taboos. p>
The queen was troubled by all the concubines, "Your Majesty recruited that woman into the palace without consulting with me in advance. Now that the woman is pregnant and has been granted the title of submissive concubine, without consulting with me. It can be seen that Your Majesty does not need it."
If others don't agree, the decision has been made, and the matter has come to this, you tell me, what can I do?"
A courageous concubine said angrily, "Empress, you are the head of the harem."
The implication is, even if His Majesty is willful, won't you advise him? Don't you care? You have to say something! You can't really be an empty-handed queen. After so many years, it's not like you have no skills, and you can't control someone who has no skills.
The harem is peaceful, and the sisters can compete for favor, but so far no one has dared to persecute the emperor's heirs. This is all the result of the queen.
"You are already old, why are you still fighting for favor with a newcomer?" The Queen was not angry, "Now that Concubine Shun is pregnant, naturally she cannot serve Your Majesty. This palace has decided to draft a girl in advance, and the newcomer will enter the palace. Concubine Shun will be pregnant in ten months.
, whether she can continue to be favored depends on whether she is really capable. How about this?"
When all the concubines heard this, they all agreed. They were all old and beautiful. Those who are not old and beautiful are not new people. Including Xi Guiren, who was favored before Hua Siyu, they are not new. If a new person comes in
Palace, there is always something fresh.
After the queen dismissed all the concubines, she continued, "Pass the imperial edict to the Ministry of Rites, saying that because next year is my father's birthday, I plan to go to Nanyang to celebrate his birthday. I'm afraid that next year's talent show will be a big deal.
I couldn’t handle it by then, so I simply made arrangements in advance now that I have nothing to do.”
Since the emperor brought Hua Siyu into the palace and bestowed Hua Siyu without her consent, then as the queen, she advocated early draft selection, so there was no need to obtain the emperor's consent.
There are many emperors and empresses who have been disloyal to each other throughout the ages. Only if you respect me can I respect you, right?
As the Queen's decree was issued, and the Ministry of Rites accepted it, everyone looked at each other in astonishment, and the news immediately spread throughout the government and the public.
If any family has a daughter of the right age and wants to enter the palace to seek a future when it comes to the draft, they will immediately make preparations. Those who do not want to enter the palace will quickly find a suitable family to marry their daughter.
For a time, in just half a day, Beijing became lively.
At the same time, various state, county, and government offices also received the imperial edict documents one after another.
For more than a month, the emperor had forgotten about the entire harem except for the flowers that looked like jade. Now the queen suddenly threw a big stone into the water, which suddenly woke him up. He asked Zhang De in surprise, "What's going on?
Why does the queen want to draft me in advance?"
Eunuch Zhang thought to himself that you finally remembered the Empress. In the past month or so, the Empress has not come to you, so you have forgotten the identity of the Queen's wife, thinking that the Empress is still the same as before. You are tolerating you in every possible way for the Nanyang Palace.
In today's Nanyang Palace, although the old prince is old and unable to do what he wants, Princess An Xiao has grown up and stood up, and is still a powerful one. What's more, His Highness Seventh Prince has also grown up and stood up. Now
