Mrs. Dou didn't know much about Qianxue's miscarriage, and Mrs. Gu would not tell her such a thing.
Gu Qiancheng was not interested in this matter and did not ask any more questions. He thought that he had just come back and he wanted to meet the old man because of his emotions, so he asked: "Is the old man here?"
"Yes, in the study. Look at my memory. The old man also said that the eldest lady will go see him when she comes back." It's not that Mrs. Dou has forgotten, it's just that she never mentioned it.
The old man wanted to see Gu Qiancheng just because of Qianxue's affairs. She could delay it for a while.
Gu Qiancheng saw Dou's petty thoughts, but he was just too lazy to pay attention to it. Besides, Dou's actions were in line with her wishes. She was really not interested in Gu Qianxue's affairs at all, and it was impossible for her to do anything for her. Get ahead.
Taking the initiative to meet the old man and asking to see her are completely different things. In order to prevent the old man from dragging her into talking, Gu Qiancheng went to see the old man without even changing her clothes.
The old man did not sit in the study, but had two chairs moved and sat in the yard outside the study. As soon as Gu Qiancheng stepped into the yard, he saw the old man sitting under the big tree, making tea leisurely.
It seems that the old man is not very anxious.
Gu Qiancheng stepped forward and said, "Grandpa."
"Qiancheng is here, sit down." The old man looked up and his eyes were dull, showing no emotion or anger.
The old man was becoming more and more shrewd and reserved. Gu Qiancheng couldn't figure out what he was thinking, so he had to sit down next to him. When he saw the old man pouring himself a cup of tea, Gu Qiancheng thanked him and drank it.
She is thirsty!
A small cup of tea couldn't quench her thirst. Gu Qiancheng drank three cups in a row before stopping. The old man didn't laugh at her for chewing peonies. He only asked her, "Are you hungry? I'll ask someone to bring you some snacks."
"Grandpa, I'm not hungry. I ate on the carriage." Gu Qiancheng didn't intend to talk to the old man for a long time.
"Okay, seeing that you are so busy, you must be in a hurry to go back and rest, so I will keep the story short." The old man knew Gu Qiancheng's temperament, so he put down the teacup and said calmly: "You must have heard about Qianxue. Well, she will be the concubine of Prince Chu for the rest of her life, and there will be no possibility of moving forward."
When the old man said this, it was not that he didn't think highly of King Zhao, but that he didn't think highly of Prince Chu. Although the Gu family was weak, some information could still be found, such as the matter of Prince Chu.
Prince Chu has been running to the temple outside the city every now and then, as if no one knows what he is doing.
Gu Qiancheng did not answer, and the old man continued: "Don't interfere with Qianxue's affairs. Although the married daughter's family must support her, it is also the matter of the father and brother. I have never heard of any unmarried sisters coming to the door. Support her."
The old man's words made Gu Qiancheng really stunned. After a moment of confusion, he said: "Grandpa, do you want me to leave this alone?"
He thought that the old man would ask her to stand up for Gu Qianxue for the sake of the Gu family. After all, by doing this, the Zhao Palace was hurting the Gu family's face.
The old man said categorically: "Don't worry about it. Don't worry about whoever comes to you. Just say it was what I wanted."
"It's just... In this case, where will our Gu family's reputation go?" The family's daughter had a miscarriage, and she had to give an explanation no matter what.
The old man sighed, "Qianxue is a concubine, and she should not have been the eldest grandson of Prince Zhao's palace." I am afraid that except for Qin Yunchu and Prince Zhao, no one else in Prince Zhao's residence would be happy to see Qianxue's child born. Including Princess Zhao.
"I understand." Gu Qiancheng thought that the reason why Qin Yunchu was invited by King Zhao to be the crown prince was because he was the eldest son. People in the Zhao Palace must be worried that when Qianxue, the eldest grandson, comes out, even if he is the eldest grandson,
May become a descendant.
Besides, with such an eldest son, Qin Yunchu would not be able to marry a daughter from a good family, and would be unable to attract influence to Prince Zhao's palace.
A child involves all kinds of problems. Gu Qiancheng doesn't understand why Mrs. Gu would let Qianxue get pregnant with this child?
Of course Qianxue and Mrs. Gu knew that Qianxue should not have a child, but their ambitions were too great. They always thought that if this child was born, he would be the first person in the Zhao Palace, or even the royal generation. This status would naturally be very high.
Tongfanxiang, maybe Qianxue can use this to make him the crown prince.
Even if he cannot become the eldest grandson, he still has the title of the eldest grandson of the emperor. Qianxue's status cannot be underestimated. In the future, even if Qin Yunchu marries the eldest concubine, he will not dare to do anything to Qianxue.
Greedy people always end badly.
Gu Qianxue was lying on the bed with a pale face at this time. There was deathly silence in the room. Gu Qianxue did not cry. She just shed tears silently, one drop after another without stopping.
Mrs. Gu didn't cry loudly. She sat beside Qianxue's bed and wiped Qianxue's tears. There were only mother and daughter in the room, and it was so deserted. From top to bottom, Prince Zhao's palace didn't seem to care about their mother.
Women take it seriously.
After a long time, Mrs. Gu finally couldn't help it and said: "Qianxue, tell mother, what is going on?" Why did Prince Zhao's palace not even have a person to take care of her daughter when she had a miscarriage?
She wanted to stand up for her daughter, but Qianxue repeatedly blocked her.
"Mom, I told you not to ask. I was blind and saw the wrong person. Can you take me home? I don't want to stay here, not at all." Gu Qianxue started crying as she spoke.
, the sunken cheeks and eyes silently told Mrs. Gu that she was not doing well.
Mrs. Gu's heart was broken. She had a son and a daughter. The son was sent away by the old man and his whereabouts are still unknown. But the only daughter is like this, but she can't do anything about it.
The people in Prince Zhao's Mansion didn't take her seriously at all. She had only been entertained by one or two servants for so long, and they had never even seen Princess Zhao's face.
"Qianxue, no married daughter can go back. You are the concubine of Prince Zhao's palace. Not to mention that the royal family will not agree to your return, even the Gu family will not accept it." The current Gu family is no longer the same.
In the previous Gu family, she had the final say.
"Mom, I don't want to stay here, not even for a moment. Can you let me go back? I beg you?" Gu Qianxue was pleading, but she remained motionless, like a wooden man.
Mrs. Gu felt really distressed and gritted her teeth and said, "Mom, go and beg Princess Zhao to take you home to recuperate for a while."
Mrs. Gu originally thought that it would be difficult to get Princess Zhao to nod, but she didn't expect that Princess Zhao didn't say a polite word and agreed after hearing Mrs. Gu mention it, "I will arrange for someone to take you back."
Before Mrs. Gu could figure out what was going on, she was sent back by Princess Zhao. Gu Qianxue's face turned red, but...
The Gu family, who received the news in advance, did not welcome Qianxue who was suddenly sent back by Prince Zhao's Mansion...
