Why did the princess give you a box of books on purpose? Could it be that the princess thinks you have bad manners?

As soon as Lin Nei left, Mrs Xie regained her eloquence.

Gu Jiu looked calm and said, I don't know.

Then open it quickly and see what books are there.

Gu Jiu shook her head slightly, If Madam has nothing else to do, I'll go back to my room and read first.

Xie was angry and patted the table, I asked you to open the box and see what books are inside, didn't you hear it?

Gu Jiu looked at Xie Shi with a half-smile, Madam, this is a gift from the princess, and it should be handled by me.

You're wrong. You don't have my first-mother in your eyes yet?

Xie Shi pointed at Gu Jiu's nose and cursed.

Gu Jiu lowered her head and smiled, As a first-mother, Mrs. should have the appearance of being a first-mother at any rate. She always scolds and scolds. People who don't know the inside story will think that you and I are enemies and meet each other.

presumptuous!

I don't dare to be presumptuous, but I am reasonable. Auntie, thank you for your help in greeting Lin's servant today, and my niece will say goodbye first.

The eldest wife, Mrs. Zhang, nodded slightly, Go.

Gu Jiu blessed her body and left the flower hall with the box in her arms.

Xie's expression was distorted with anger, You stop for me. I didn't let you go, how dare you go?

Gu Jiuquan left without hearing Xie's words.

Xie hurriedly shouted: Stop her, stop her quickly. It's just lawless. Did you learn the rules and go into the dog's stomach?

The people below looked at each other, but no one moved.

The second girl is going to marry the emperor's grandson in the future, so how can she offend her casually. Madam is confused.

After such a delay, Gu Jiu had already left, and no one could be seen.

Xie shivered in anger, pointed at Chun He's nose and cursed, Dare you not even listen to Mrs. Ben's words?

Madam, calm your anger! After all, it was a gift from the princess to the second girl. How dare the servants dare to do anything at will, wouldn't it offend the princess.

fart!

Xie scolded angrily.

The eldest wife, Mrs. Zhang, looked leisurely, Brother and sister, you've been losing your temper more and more recently. Do you want to invite a doctor to show you? If you continue like this, I'm afraid you will grow old very quickly.

Xie choked.

He hurriedly raised his hand to touch his cheek, Am I old?

The eldest wife, Mrs. Zhang, looked at Mrs. Xie with a half-smile, If this goes on like this, you look like you're more than seventeen or eighteen years older than Concubine Bai.

How could I be seventeen or eighteen years older than Concubine Bai. Don't talk nonsense, sister-in-law.

Xie's face changed slightly, and he tried his best to refute Zhang's words. I feel uneasy and nervous in my heart. Does she really look much older?

The eldest wife, Mrs. Zhang, said: At our age, people who tend to lose their temper all have problems with their bodies. They are irritable, age more easily than others, and have many problems with their bodies.

On the other hand, those who are mild-tempered and open-minded look at least seven or eight years younger than their peers.

The younger brother and sister do not want to age prematurely. If they seem to be older than the second brother, it is best to restrain their temper, smile more and soothe their mood in the future.

Mrs Xie opened her mouth and said softly, Sister-in-law misunderstood, I don't like to lose my temper too much.

The eldest Mrs. Zhang pursed her lips and smiled, Since Concubine Bai gave birth to a son, my younger brother and sister can count on their own, how many times have you lost your temper. You don't like everyone, and you have to scold everyone when you see them. Isn't this a tantrum? Anger hurts the liver. , brother and sister, beware of liver disease.

you……

Xie was about to get angry again, and remembering what Zhang had just said, he endured it and restrained his temper.

Sister-in-law reminded you right, anger hurts the liver, I will definitely lose my temper less in the future.

The eldest wife, Mrs. Zhang, nodded with a smile, I can rest assured that my younger brother and sister can figure it out.

Gu Jiu returned to Zhilan Courtyard, put the box on the desk, but was in no hurry to open it.

Qingzhu asked, Don't you open it, girl?

Xiaocui muttered, My wife is too much. She also has to take a look at the gift that the princess gave to the girl. And she would scold the girl at every turn. If the girl is not her own, she can do whatever she wants.

Qingmei said, My wife has been unhappy because Concubine Bai gave birth to a son.

Xiaocui snorted, My wife is angry, so she sent it to Concubine Bai. Why is she attacking the girl. Fortunately, the girl is tough, otherwise she would have to be tortured to death by the wife.

Gu Jiu smiled, Don't talk about your wife. She's in menopause, and it's not pleasing to anyone.

Several maids were stunned.

Qingmei asked, Girl, what is menopause?

It's just that when a woman gets older, her days are almost gone, and her body changes. During that time, she becomes moody and her temper is unpredictable. Commonly known as menopause.

Ah? My wife is only in her forties. Why is it so early? Xiao Cui said bluntly.

Gu Jiu smiled and said, Some people are early and some are late, and the duration varies from a few months to a few years. My wife is already irritable, so it's not surprising that it's early.

I didn't expect irritable people to have such a disadvantage.

A few maids seem to have not opened the door to a new world, and they have learned a lot.

Gu Jiu sat on the chair and said, Didn't you find out, my wife's face has been sallow recently, and she looks more haggard than during the Spring Festival.

Qingmei said: When the girl said this, the slave and maid remembered. When I saw my wife today, I didn't seem to be in good spirits during the Spring Festival days, and I looked tired.

Gu Jiu sneered, She just can't think of it herself, so she finds herself guilty.

It stands to reason that the Xie family already has two sons, and even if Bai Yiniang gave birth to a son, it would not threaten her.

As a result, Shi Xie was sulking all day long, and Concubine Bai's fur was not damaged, but she was pissed off.

In the end, Mr. Xie deserves it.

Since Yiniang Bai couldn't be tolerated, it should have been more straightforward at first, and not let Yiniang Bai enter the door.

While pretending to be generous, Concubine Bai was allowed to enter. At the same time, he played all kinds of small movements, making noise all day long, and he was not too tired.

Gu Jiu thought to herself that if she married Liu Zhao in the future, she would definitely not let Liu Zhao take a concubine.

If Liu Zhao did not respect her opinion, he had to take a concubine.

Hehe, it's simple.

When she gave birth to a son and had an heir, she kicked Liu Zhao out.

It doesn't matter whether Liu Zhao is dead or alive, as long as there is a son, she must hold the palace in her hands and give it all to her son.

As for Liu Zhao, death is best. Not dead, roll as far as you go.

Gu Jiu thought very clearly.

Marriage can't be chosen by herself, she will try her best to live a good life.

Man, it's just an extra leg, and she's not uncommon.

After completing the task, the man can get out.

Of course, Gu Jiu absolutely couldn't say these words. Too shocking, afraid to scare people.

Liu Zhao, who was in the palace at the moment, suddenly felt an itchy nose.

He pinched his nose secretly, but someone was scolding him behind his back.

Don't think about it, it must be Gu Jiu.

Liu Zhao frowned slightly, what is this woman Gu Jiu secretly scolding him again?

Too presumptuous.

It seemed that he had to advance the wedding date, marry Gu Jiu in the door earlier, and teach her the truth of taking her husband as the heaven.

Inside the Zhilan Courtyard, Gu Jiu opened the peach wood box, and there were indeed several collections of classics and histories inside.

Gu Jiu snorted, a little strange.

The princess sent someone to send books, how could they send the classics to Shi Ziji? Shouldn't it be time to send books such as Women?

Gu Jiu flipped through the book and found that something was wrong.

The box was a bit deep, but with just three or four books, the entire box was filled. This is not reasonable.

She looked inside and out and took out all the books. Sure enough, this peach wood box had a hidden compartment.

Carefully open the hidden compartment, and there lies a dagger inlaid with various colored jewels.

Wow……

When several maids saw the dagger, they all screamed.

Very expensive dagger.

No, it should be said that it is a very expensive jewelry.

The handle of the dagger is inlaid with emeralds, rubies, sapphires, and amethysts.

The scabbard is also inlaid with gems of various colors.

Regardless of the value of the dagger, all kinds of gemstones are already worth thousands of dollars.

Gu Jiu pulled out the dagger, which was dull and dull. At first glance, it does not seem worthy of such a luxurious decoration.

She raised the dagger, thought about it, and slashed lightly at the corner of the table.

The corner of the table suddenly fell to the ground.

Good sharp dagger. Gu Jiu's snack was taken aback.

Bring a hair.

Qingmei pulled two hairs from her head and tangled them together, Girl, try it.

Gu Jiu nodded, waved the dagger, and her hair snapped.

Wow……

Several maids exclaimed again.

This dagger is too sharp. I'm afraid there's nothing this dagger can cut through.

Gu Jiu laughed, in a good mood, Go get a stone, I'll try this dagger to cut the stone.

Wang Yi was the first to say, The slaves are going to move the stones.

Move small stones, not big ones.

Gu Jiu was afraid that Wang Yi would come to the garden and bring a huge stone.

Soon, Wang Yi came back with a stone.

The stone was the size of two palms, and it was quite heavy.

Wang Yi put the stone on the ground.

Gu Jiu was eager to try, raised his dagger, and slashed down hard.

With a crunch, the stone split in half.

Wow!

Another burst of amazement.

Blowing hair and breaking hair, this dagger is really sharp.

Gu Jiu was overjoyed and fell in love with this gem-encrusted dagger.

Qingzhu suddenly said: Why did the princess give the girl a dagger?

yes? How could the princess give such a gift to her own girl.

Gu Jiu laughed and said, This gift was not sent by the princess, but in the name of the princess. This gift was given by the prince.

Ah? This is actually a gift from the young master to the girl?

Is this a token of love given to the girl by the prince's edict?

Young Master Zhao is so strange. The gifts that other people give to the girl's house are all jewelry. The Master sent a dagger directly. Does he want the girl to use the dagger to slash people?

Gu Jiu laughed, and said with curved eyebrows: I like this gift. If you only give jewelry, you will be happy for a moment. There is nothing like this dagger.

After speaking, Gu Jiu thought to himself that Liu Zhao really knew how to read people's hearts.

He must have figured that he would like this gift, so he sent the servant Lin to deliver it.

I don't know how Liu Zhao could see that she would like this dagger.

Qingmei nodded, It can be seen that the girl really likes this gift.

Gu Jiu played with the dagger, looking like he couldn't put it down.

I didn't expect that Young Master Zhao would send this gift in the name of the princess.

Fortunately, the girl didn't listen to the wife when she was in the flower hall. If the box was opened in front of the wife, the dagger might not be able to hide.

A few maids were talking at length.

Gu Jiu sat at the desk and thought about whether she should return a letter to Liu Zhao as a courtesy.

It's just that writing a letter is easy, but sending a letter is difficult.

She was not sure that her letter could be delivered to Liu Zhao smoothly. Worrying about reaching the concierge of the palace, the letter turned a corner and arrived in the hands of the queen concubine.

After thinking about it, Gu Jiu finally gave up the idea of ​​writing a letter.

When I have the opportunity to see Liu Zhao in the future, it will not be too late to say thank you in front of him.

Liu Zhao left the palace and returned to the palace.

He went back to the East Court first, and when he saw Lin Shuping, he asked, Have the things been delivered?

Reporting to the young master, the gift has been delivered to Miss Gu by hand.

Liu Zhao nodded, hesitated for a moment, and asked, Does she like it?

Lin Shuping was in a dilemma, how to answer this question.

Let's be honest.

He bowed and said, In front of the two ladies of the Gu residence, Miss Gu did not open the wooden box. But thinking about it, she should like it.

Liu Zhao frowned, So you didn't tell her that there are other things in the wooden box?

Lin Shuping suddenly became nervous, Girl Gu is so smart, she will definitely discover the secrets inside the wooden box.

Liu Zhao snorted, noncommittal.

Lin Shuping blamed himself, blaming himself for his inability to do things, and for not trying to figure out the son's true intentions.

Liu Zhao was silent for a while, then asked, Where will this be, my lord?

Lin Shuping bowed and replied, Your Highness will be listening to the ditty in the Tourmaline Pavilion.

Liu Zhao immediately took people to the Tourmaline Pavilion.

As soon as I passed through the Moon Cave Gate, I heard the sound of silk and bamboo, accompanied by the extravagant voice of the woman singing a ditty.

Liu Zhao frowned slightly, calmed his emotions in a blink of an eye, and walked in with a blank face.

In the luxuriously furnished hall, the dancers were dressed in tulle dresses, with beautiful figures, and they were listening to the song and dancing.

The two singers sat on the edge, singing a melodious voice.

In the back is a row of musicians, with various instruments in front of them.

Liu Zhao stood at the entrance of the hall and did not go in.

Seeing this, the inner servant hurried forward to report to Prince Ning.

My lord, the eldest son is here.

After saying that, he pointed to the door.

Prince Ning opened his eyes and looked towards the gate, Oh, the boss is here, come in.

Liu Zhao walked into the hall with a straight face.

The dancers hurriedly retreated to the side, daring not to block the way of the eldest son. The two singers also stopped singing, and the musicians stopped playing their instruments.

Don't stop, continue! This king is on the rise, whoever dares to stop will be punished by this king.

Ning Wang shouted at everyone, looking unhappy.

Singer, dancer, musician, everyone looked at each other.

Caught between the prince and the eldest son, it's hard to live.

However, the prince is the biggest in the palace, so naturally he listens to the prince.

As a result, the sound of silk and bamboo played again, the singers sang, and the dancers danced gracefully. A scene of singing and dancing.

Liu Zhao stepped forward with an expressionless face, bowed and bowed, My son has seen his father.

Sit down and enjoy with this king.

My son has something important to report.

No matter what it is, I will talk about it later. This king is in a hurry now, and I don't have the heart to listen to what's going on in the court.

Liu Zhao's face was ashen, he sat down on the chair, his eyes first fell on the faces of the two singers.

The two singers were forced by Liu Zhao's eyes, and they sang the ditty.

Hey, the eldest son's eyes are so scary.

There was no way for the dancers to continue jumping, because Young Master Zhao looked at them.

Those eyes are eating people.

The singers and dancers were in a mess, and the musicians couldn't play well.

Listening to the scattered singing and watching the dancers in disorder, King Ning was furious.

Go away, get out of here.

The singers, dancers, and musicians hurriedly withdrew, as if they were amnesty.

As soon as people left, the huge hall seemed particularly empty.

King Ning was very unhappy and stared at Liu Zhao dissatisfiedly.

What's your fault for ruining this king's interest?

Liu Zhao said with a blank face: In the court today, the imperial grandfather promoted Xue Gui to be the secretary of the middle school.

When King Ning heard this, he immediately cursed, Is the old man confused? He even promoted Xue Gui, an illiterate bastard, to be a middle-school assistant.

The old man in King Ning's mouth naturally refers to the emperor.

Liu Zhao continued: The emperor's grandfather's move, the son dared to guess, is deliberately targeting the East Palace.

King Ning raised his eyebrows, Why do you see it?

Did your father forget that the current minister, Zuoshe Xu, is the elder brother of the prince, Zhan Shi, of the same family. The purpose of appointing Xue Gui as the minister of the middle book is to restrain the minister.

King Ning laughed, Although the old man has a bad eye for choosing people, he still does a good job.

Liu Zhao frowned, Father, I invite you to participate in politics tomorrow.

This king is not going. If you go, you will be scolded by the old man.

Liu Zhao's eyebrows twitched, Uncle Zhao and Uncle Yan are very active in participating in government affairs.

King Ning snorted coldly and stared at Liu Zhao, Are you so eager to be a prince?

This is a word of heartbreak.
