The conversation between Gu Qiancheng and Princess Zhao went smoothly, but the men in the front yard did not have a very happy conversation, and even had a faint smell of gunpowder.
Originally, the matter of taking wives and concubines should be a matter for the women in the backyard, but the matter between Gu's Mansion and Prince Zhao's Mansion has become too big. If it is not handled well, both families will lose face.
In addition, the two daughters of the Gu family have been wronged in this matter. No matter how noble King Zhao is, he cannot pretend that he knows nothing at this time.
Last night, King Zhao invited Qin Jiyan to come forward. Although Qin Jiyan and Qin Yunchu were of the same generation, their status was similar to that of King Zhao. I thought that these two people would come to apologize and the matter would be settled, but they didn't expect him and the others to come forward yesterday.
Something happened again at Gu's house that night.
When Qin Yunchu returned to Prince Zhao's Mansion, the medicinal properties in his body had not completely subsided, and the imperial doctor happened to find out. Qin Jiyan did not tell anyone about his illness, but Qin Jiyan did not say hello and left suddenly, so it must be the same
Something happened.
By grasping these two things, King Zhao changed from the one who was in the wrong to the one who was righteous.
Gu Guogong and Mrs. Gu originally wanted to talk to the old man about this matter today, but they didn't expect that Prince Zhao would be one step ahead of them. Only then did Mr. Gu know that such a big scandal had happened in the Gu family last night.
Mr. Gu couldn't believe what he heard. He turned to look at his son. When he lowered his head and did not dare to argue, he knew that everything Prince Zhao said was true.
"My family is unlucky, my family is really unlucky, how could I give birth to a son like you?" Old Mrs. Gu was so angry that her whole body was shaking, her blood was surging, and her throat was so sweet that she almost vomited it out.
Old Mrs. Gu quickly took a breath and swallowed the mouthful of blood.
He can't fall down now. If he falls down, the Gu family's reputation will be completely ruined.
"Dad..." Gu Guogong called in a low voice, but he was not admitting his mistake. He seemed to be blaming the old man and placing the blame on himself. In this way, there was no way to discuss the marriage between Qianxue and Prince Chu.
"Evil son..." Mr. Gu was very disappointed. He was very disappointed that his son still hadn't seen clearly yet and still wanted to use Qianxue to gain access to Prince Zhao's palace.
The Gu family has been pinched by King Zhao. Now it is not about negotiating terms with Prince Zhao's Mansion, but whether King Zhao can let them go.
A flash of sorrow flashed in Mr. Gu's eyes, and then he returned to his original determination.
Such a stupid son, it would be impossible to count on him. Old Mrs. Gu suppressed the anger in his heart, turned around and saluted Prince Zhao, stretched out his hand to lift up the hem of his clothes, and knelt down with a thud.
"Your Majesty, the old man did not teach his son well and caused trouble for the prince and the prince. If the prince wants to be beaten or punished, the old man will not hesitate." Boom... The old man kowtowed heavily in front of King Zhao.
"Dad..." Gu Guogong didn't know why. When he saw his father kneeling down, of course he didn't dare to sit down. He quickly knelt down towards King Zhao with an uneasy look on his face.
Mr. Gu was quite old. He had accompanied the emperor on the battlefield in his early years and was very important in the emperor's heart. He had not knelt down so solemnly for many years. This time he really had no choice.
His stupid son didn't understand, but he knew very well that the royal family would pursue this matter, which would be the death penalty for murdering the emperor's grandson, and the Gu family could not afford this crime.
Prince Zhao nodded slightly, a trace of satisfaction flashed in his eyes, there was finally a sensible person in the Gu family.
After all, there is no real evidence about the aphrodisiac. In addition, the victim is the daughter of the Gu family. Qin Jiyan has not revealed it, and King Zhao has no intention of pursuing it. He is just using this matter to warn the Gu family not to push too far.
Yes it is possible.
When Old Mrs. Gu retreated, King Zhao naturally would not pursue it any further. King Zhao stood up and helped the old Mr. Gu up personally: "The old Mr. Gu said something serious. Please get up quickly. It's just a misunderstanding between children. Just make it clear."
King Zhao is in his early forties, a man who has led troops and been on the battlefield. He has a resolute personality and a majestic manner. He does not look like a pampered prince, but more like a fierce general on the battlefield. His tiger eyes are extraordinary and his hands are powerful.
It's not something that Mrs. Gu can compare with.
Mr. Gu was pulled up by Prince Zhao, and he could only thank you tremblingly: "Thank you for your kindness."
For a moment, Mr. Gu seemed to have aged dozens of years. At this time, he was completely free of the excitement and excitement he had when he got "Yi Guo Zhi" yesterday.
The descendants of the Gu family are incompetent, so even if they get rich and powerful, they may not be able to keep it.
"The children are ignorant, so the old man doesn't need to take it to heart." The effect was achieved, and King Zhao became polite, but the old man was not in the mood to play Tai Chi with King Zhao.
When such a scandal happened, the old man was so ashamed and angry that he wanted to kill his disgraced son, daughter-in-law and granddaughter.
When King Zhao said that he would bring Gu Qianxue into the palace in two months, the old man did not dare to ask for anything. However, Gu Guogong had not seen the situation clearly and was anxious to win the position of the crown prince for Gu Qianxue. Fortunately, the old man found out
He got there early and didn't let Gu Guogong say it out and be embarrassed.
Before Prince Zhao left, he glanced at Gu Guogong with a half-smile: "Don't worry in the long run. The dowry sent by your Gu family will be brought back by me tomorrow. There is no need to prepare so many dowries for one side room." The word "long run" was written by Gu Guogong,
Prince Zhao said this at this time to show that he knew everything about yesterday's wedding.
Of course, the Gu family never thought that they could hide what happened yesterday. They had already lost their face and Gu Guogong didn't care. Seeing that King Zhao was about to walk out, Gu Guogong stood up in a hurry and wanted to chase him out: "Your Majesty..."
Fortunately, the old man reacted quickly and grabbed the man: "I respectfully see you off, Your Majesty."
"Hmph..." Prince Zhao originally wanted to give the Gu family some face, but when he saw that Gu Guogong was so disrespectful, he sneered. He flicked his sleeve, and it hit Gu Guogong's face directly, drawing out a bloody mark. It can be seen that although Prince Zhao
He allowed Gu Qianxue to come in, but was extremely dissatisfied with the Gu family.
What Gu Qiancheng said at the wedding yesterday not only embarrassed the Gu family, but also the face of Prince Zhao's family.
"Pa..."
Before Gu Guogong could react, the old man slapped him, pointed at Gu Guogong's nose and cursed: "Naughty son, evil son. How could I give birth to a son like you? Do you know that you almost harmed the Gu family?
It cost hundreds of lives in my Gu family."
To say that you are not disappointed would be a lie. Gu Guogong is the heir to the title. With his unpredictable temperament, does the Gu family still have a future?
"Dad, what did I do wrong? Everything I did was for the Gu family. When did I harm the Gu family?" Gu Guogong covered his face and was very dissatisfied. He is in his forties and has always been pampered.
He was almost a grandfather, but he was slapped by his biological father. It would be a ghost if Gu Guogong didn't get angry.
"You don't know yet, you... poof." The old man finally couldn't help it, vomited out a mouthful of blood, rolled his eyes, and fainted.
The Gu Mansion is in a state of chaos, but Gu Qiancheng's courtyard is rarely clean. After settling his marriage with Qin Yunchu, Gu Qiancheng feels relieved. Now that he heard that the old man was fainted from anger, Gu Qiancheng is even more cruel.
He breathed a sigh of relief.
It's not that she's unfilial, it's that she really needs time to think about how to get through this hurdle. If the old man faints, it means that she can delay it for another two days. In this way, she can also think of a perfect plan...
