The Queen of the Red Chamber is a little flustered

On this day, Gu Qinyuan was talking and laughing with her mother and sister in the main courtyard as usual.

Suddenly, Nanny Wang hurriedly walked up to Mrs. Zheng, and whispered something in her ear.

Zheng's complexion changed drastically, her rosy cheeks turned pale, and her brows were filled with anxiety, she asked, "Is what you said true?"

Wang Momo was very sure, although she couldn't believe it, but it was the butler who came to tell her just now, "The news just came from the master, it said it was..."

Mrs. Zheng interrupted her unfinished words, looked at her daughter who was looking at her puzzledly, and said, "Sister Ting, mother has some things to deal with, you take Sister Yuan back to the yard, today's You can just read in your room."

This kind of thing must not be said in front of the daughters. Although it is still uncertain, it would be good if Sister Ting knew about it!

Gu Qinyuan nodded gently, and replied: "Yes, mother." She is not a curious person, she is very obedient.

Gu Qinyuan opened her mouth to say something, but seeing Zheng's bad face, she also knew that the two sisters probably shouldn't know something, so she got up and took her sister back to her small courtyard.

After the daughters left, Mrs. Zheng hurriedly walked to her husband's study in the front yard. Her footsteps were in a hurry, without the slow steps and graceful manners of the past.Nanny Wang also followed closely behind her.

Before entering the house, Mrs. Zheng exclaimed: "My lord, the news that came is true. The emperor really gave my sister Ting a marriage, and it was with Jia Amnesty from the Rongguo Mansion."

Gu Qingbai saw that his wife was different from the usual gentleness, indifference, elegance and nobility, because her hair was a little messy because she walked in a hurry.He nodded with a wry smile.

Zheng's expression changed drastically, with an unbelievable look, as if the sky was about to collapse.Tears rolled down from her eyes, and she cried, "How could it be, how could it be like this, why did the Holy One suddenly grant marriage?"

She didn't know Jia She of Rongguo Duke's mansion, but when she went out to socialize, she often heard the wives of other families talk about the men of each family.It is said that Mr. Jia is looking for flowers and willows on weekdays, and his surroundings are not clean. He has nothing to do all day long and is not serious.With such a reputation, which innocent family is willing to marry their pampered daughter.

Gu Qingbai embraced the crying wife with one arm, patted her shoulder with his big hand, and comforted her in a low voice, "Don't cry, don't cry!" He explained: "It didn't happen suddenly."

"Master, could it be that you knew about this in advance?" Zheng looked at her husband with surprise in her eyes, as if she couldn't believe it.

With a bitter face, Gu Qingbai shook his head and said, "Mr. Rong Guo mentioned to me about getting married a few days ago, but I didn't agree."

Zheng said resentfully: "The Jia family is a bandit, but if my family doesn't want it, he will go directly to the emperor to ask for marriage. What's the reason for that?"

If his family's matter is settled, is it possible that everyone will go to the emperor if they fail to discuss marriage in the future?

"Isn't that so, what kind of character is Jia She, is it possible that Rong Guogong doesn't know it?" Gu San Gu Yanfeng followed his eldest brother Gu Yanyuan into the door, and said loudly dissatisfied.

He has also seen Jia Amnesty, because of the gulf between Qingliu and Xungui, although he has never dealt with him, he often sees him idle in Beijing, how could his eldest sister marry such a person.

"Okay, now that things have come to an end, what can we complain about here?" Gu Yanyuan frowned and looked at the third younger brother who was jumping, and said with a serious face.

Then he greeted Gu Qingbai and his wife.

Gu Qingbai waved his hands, ignored his two sons, and helped Mrs. Zheng to sit down.

Gu San was impatient, and didn't care about the big brother's scolding, and asked quickly: "Father, mother, what should we do now, we can't let the big sister marry that prodigal Jaenhou like this!"

When Mrs. Zheng heard her son's "prodigal son", thinking of her poor eldest daughter, she couldn't help but feel sore, and wiped away her tears again.

Her poor sister Ting, how did such a thing happen to her?

Gu Qingbai stared blankly at his youngest son, and softly comforted his sad wife, "The Holy Majesty has not yet issued an imperial decree, and my father has not returned from the palace. I only found out about this after being woken up by Eunuch Wei, who is next to the Holy Majesty. .”

He turned to look at his two sons and asked, "How do you brothers know?"

Before Gu Yanyuan could say anything, Gu San hurriedly replied: "My cousin heard about it from my uncle. As soon as he heard about it, he came to look for me."

The eldest brother-in-law is a third-rank Hanlin scholar, and from time to time he would go to the imperial court to accompany him, and he must have heard the conversation between the Holy Majesty and Jia Daishan when he was on duty.

Gu Qingbai nodded, expressing that he understood.

Seeing her husband still looking calm, Mrs. Zheng couldn't help but patted his chest with both hands, and complained: "It's all your fault, if I agreed with sister-in-law earlier, I would have settled sister Ting's marriage earlier, and I wouldn't have There is such a thing."

When Gu Qinting and Ji were together, Mrs. Lin said that she wanted to book a marriage between the two. Mrs. Zheng was quite tempted, but Gu Qingbai was not very satisfied, and wanted to pick a perfect son-in-law.It's all right now, if I haven't found such a son-in-law, it's for nothing.

Gu Qingbai was helpless, how did he know that such a thing would happen.It's not that he doesn't regret it, but he just wanted to choose a good son-in-law carefully, so he hasn't made up his mind. He never thought that the emperor would pay attention to this matter.But he couldn't refute his wife, for fear that she would be even more sad.

Up to now, he also blamed himself in his heart.

Gu Yanyuan thought that his grandfather hadn't come back yet, so there might be a turning point, so he persuaded his mother who was still crying, "Mother, don't worry, maybe grandfather can dispel the idea of ​​the Holy Majesty."

After hearing this, Mrs. Zheng looked forward to it, and looked at her reliable eldest son with tears in her eyes.Gu Qingbai felt that there was no room for change in this matter, but it was not good to say something depressing.

Several people waited anxiously in the study for the old man at home to return home.

Zheng prayed to the Buddha in his heart, hoping to get good news.She really didn't want to marry her daughter into Jia's family, not to mention that Gu's family was a scholarly family, while Jia's family was honorable, and Qingliu and Xungui's family were not a good match.Let’s talk about how Jia She, who can’t succeed in literature and martial arts, is worthy of her eldest daughter who is as beautiful as a flower and jade, gentle and virtuous.

Although the Rongguo Mansion is the first-rank mansion, and the family of Jia Guogong is strong, but the father-in-law in the mansion is the elder of the cabinet, and his husband is also the household servant of the third rank, and the uncle in the family is also responsible for the errand of the magistrate of Yangzhou, so there is no need to marry the daughter. The icing on the cake.

***

Gu Ge sat in the rickety carriage, thinking about what happened in the imperial study, feeling depressed, touching the purse embroidered by his eldest granddaughter, he sighed.

Inside the imperial study.

Emperor Tiansheng sat on the dragon chair, holding a cup of tea in his hand, looking at the two confidant ministers sitting below from time to time.

Jia Daishan's face was full of excitement, and the wings of hope in his eyes were about to overflow.

Mr. Gu's face was full of astonishment, with an expression of reluctance.

Emperor Tiansheng tapped on the table and thought for a moment.One was born and died for himself, and guarded the arm of the capital, and the other was also the mainstay of the court. Although there was no need for a deep relationship between civil and military, the friendship between the important officials was hurt, because it is not good to have enmity over such trivial matters.

"Okay, Daishan, if you really want to marry Mr. Gu Ge, of course you need the two families to sit down and discuss it." Immediately, Emperor Tiansheng turned his head and said gently to Mr. Gu, "Grand Master Well, the Enhou of the Jia family, I grew up watching him, even his characters were taken by me in the early years, although he is a bit arrogant, but he is also a down-to-earth boy, when he was with the prince as a companion, you also saw him often Yes, if there is something wrong with him, just tell him straight up, and I will let him correct it."

Jia Daishan on the side nodded and got dressed, as if he was going to repair his son soon.

Gu Ge smiled wryly in his heart, can he just say that he is not satisfied at all, and doesn't want to be in-laws with Jia Daishan, a martial artist!

What's more, he has never met Jia She, Jia She was sent to the palace as a prince's companion when he was a child, but he was taken back after a few days.Old Gu Ge heard the news that Jia She felt that studying was too hard, and his grandmother felt sorry for her grandson and pleaded with the emperor to spare him from studying in the palace.

In recent years, Gu Ge hasn't seen Jia She very much, but "three-year-old sees the old", Jia She has a temperament that can't bear hardships since childhood, so how can he give Sister Ting happiness?

"Your Majesty, the old minister has also taught Jia She to that child. It's not that I'm dissatisfied, but it's just what the parents said and the matchmaker's decision." Gu Ge glanced at Jia Daishan and said, "Mr. Jia still doesn't agree with the old man." Discuss with an upbeat son."

Jia Daishan couldn't help but look anxiously at Emperor Tiansheng.

Emperor Tiansheng looked at Shidu's pitiful look, and thought of the nurse in Jia's mansion who was seriously ill in bed, and felt uncomfortable.Think back when he was just born, there was chaos in the palace, and several of his wet nurses were poisoned. Fortunately, the wife of Rong Guogong Jia Yuan paid his respects to his mother and concubine in the palace.At that time, Mrs. Rong Guogong just gave birth to Jia Daishan and was not yet weaned. Emperor Tiansheng grew up drinking her milk.In his heart, even Mrs. Fengsheng is not as important as Mrs. Rong Guogong.

The old lady was seriously ill, and when she was dying, she wanted to see her beloved grandson get married, how could he prevent her from fulfilling her wish.

What's more, now that the Gu family's attitude is cold, he doesn't have to worry that the Jia and Gu families will unite after they get married to break the current situation.

Emperor Tiansheng thought for a while, but his expression was as usual, "Grand Master Gu, although the marriage of children is decided by the parents, but the Grand Master is the grandfather, so it is naturally feasible to discuss the marriage of the granddaughter."

He waved his sleeves and said: "I see, your two families are well matched, and you are also very sincere in acting, Enhou is an honest boy, and the granddaughter of Gu Taishi's family is also a lady, so she is really a good match."

Gu Ge listened to Emperor Tiansheng's nonsense for a while, and glanced at him, as if saying: Saint, is it really good for you to open your eyes and talk nonsense like this.

"Cough, cough." Emperor Tiansheng scratched his throat, looking at the old courtier's face with a guilty conscience, but then said forcefully: "The two families are a match made in heaven. Grand Master Gu, I believe that the Jia family will treat your family well. Girl." Then he turned to Jia Daishan and said, "I'm going to make a decree to set the marriage, Rong Guogong, you have to make a good date, and don't treat Miss Gu family badly in the future."

Jia Daishan was pleasantly surprised, and quickly got up to salute and readily agreed.

Gu Ge knew that he was powerless and could not stop this marriage, so he had no choice but to bow his head and say: "Old minister obeys the order."

Afterwards, he ignored Jia Daishan who wanted to talk to him, and directly bid farewell to Emperor Tiansheng, turned and left.

Emperor Tiansheng also knew that he had wronged the old courtier, so he didn't care about his rudeness, and planned to ask the queen to reward the eldest daughter of the Gu family with more things later, so as to comfort the old courtier.

Jia Daishan had a happy face, thanked the emperor repeatedly, and hurriedly said that he would go back to prepare the dowry, so he also resigned.

Wei Zhong looked at Jia Daishan's excited back, and looked at the mysterious and unpredictable face of Emperor Tiansheng, thought for a while, and asked in a low voice: "My lord, I am afraid that Mr. Rong will offend Mr. Gu. Are the two families married or enmity?" ah."

"What do you know?" Emperor Tiansheng pointed to the disgust on his face, and tapped his fingers on the desk, "Jia Daishan, of course he has his cleverness. The world has been at peace for a long time, and military generals will naturally be less useful in the future. In the land of martial arts, if the Jia family wants to change from martial arts to literary, it is necessary to have a good in-laws. As for him, he chose the Gu family because the Gu family is the leading family in Qingliu. His appearance today is to let me agree to this. This marriage is also to dispel my worries."

Wei Zhong was still a little puzzled, "But now that Mr. Gu Ge is not satisfied, how can Duke Rong fulfill his wish?"

Emperor Tiansheng shook his head with a smile, "You, you don't have the brains of acting good. After getting married, Jia Amnesty is naturally the son-in-law of the Gu family. For the sake of her daughter, the Gu family has to help teach her well. What's more, In a few years, when the Gu family has a girl, doesn't it mean that Gu Qingbai still has plans for his grandson."

"It's still a wise man." Wei Zhong said flatteringly.

As for the Gu family who was cheated, Wei Zhong could only apologize in his heart. Although he and Lord Gu Qingbai had a good relationship, he was the emperor's slave after all. say.
