What Gu Linjiang said now was simply because he still wanted to take advantage of his daughter.
Gu Qiang curled her lips. She knew very well that for Gu Linjiang, both Gu Zhihua and herself were just pawns to help him consolidate his position.
There is no such thing as apologizing, but it's just a show, for those people outside who are watching eagerly. Gu Qiang smiled helplessly. This Gu Linjiang still regards himself as a fool. He clearly knows that he is not the type of person he can control, but he still wants to challenge his bottom line again and again, trying to push himself Introduce him into the game.
"Apologizing but not apologizing is beside the point. I just don't know if the second sister has reflected on her own mistakes this time. After all, this matter is not a trivial matter. If it is said that the younger sister is just showing off to her sister, , that’s not necessary, it’s better to consider this matter in the long run.”
Gu Qiang looked at the people in front of him. After hearing what he said, their expressions changed slightly. Gu Linjiang was able to keep his composure and quickly tugged on Gu Zhihua's sleeve.
"Look at what you did last time and made your sister angry. Why don't you come here quickly and apologize to your sister?"
Although Gu Zhihua looked unhappy, for the sake of his own future, he slowly walked forward and stood in front of Gu Qiang.
"My sister is young and ignorant, so she did such a thing. I hope my sister can forgive me and give me a chance to change my ways."
Give her a chance? Thinking about it, Gu Qiang felt that Gu Zhihua's words were a bit ridiculous. If she was not so lucky to be able to excuse herself this time, but fell into the trap of Ye's mother and daughter, if she was standing next to her now In front of him, if he begged her to give him a chance, would she look at her calmly like him, instead of going up and giving her a slap in the face until she wakes up
"What my sister said is quite interesting. If I asked my sister to reflect on her mistakes in this matter, and she just said an apology, then it would be meaningless for me to do this. That is to say, my sister actually didn’t realize where she was wrong. I think this matter should be discussed slowly. After all, I think the emperor will take care of this matter and is not in a hurry. My sister will go back later and won’t do it. There’s going to be some big problem.”
"You..." Who is Gu Zhihua? When had she ever apologized so humbly to someone else? If she hadn't been able to return to the palace quickly, she wouldn't have talked to Gu Qiang like this. Since she was a child, she looked down on Gu Qiang the most. Being able to talk to her like this now is the most humble thing she can do. She already felt that she would never do anything more humble than this. Isn't it enough for Gu Qiang to apologize to her and let her kneel in front of her and say sorry to her?
Gu Qiang Youyou looked at the furious expression of Gu Zhihua in front of her. She seemed to have anger in her heart but couldn't vent it out. She felt relieved in her heart, "My sister just said such words. My sister can't bear it." Have you lived? Isn't it human nature for my sister to ask her to admit her mistake? Why are you looking so angry now? Shouldn't you be very sincere in apologizing to me? Why? Are you worried now?"
Gu Qiang had known for a long time that Gu Zhihua's fox tail could never be hidden. Her temperament was enough to give Gu Linjiang a headache. In comparison, although Gu Zhihua took the position of the imperial concubine, It didn't seem to bring any substantial benefits to Gu Linjiang.
"Zhihua, why are you talking to your eldest sister? Don't you know that there is order in the elders and younger ones? How unbecoming is it for you to talk to your eldest sister like this? Besides, you did something wrong in the first place. Do you want to blame your eldest sister now?" Gu Linjiang saw that Gu Zhihua seemed to want to retort, and might mean something bad, so he quickly stopped Gu Zhihua and prevented her from continuing. If you go on, if you really turn your back, it will be harmful to yourself but not beneficial at all.
"Prime Minister Gu is aware of current affairs, but looking at the current situation, the second young lady does not seem to really realize what she has done wrong. It seems that the punishment measures given by Prime Minister Gu are too light, so the second young lady is allowed to There was no good reflection.”
Shen Qianshan originally didn't want Shen Zhongbai and Gu Linjiang to be of the same mind. It just so happened that judging from the current situation, both of them seemed to have their own ideas and were full of various barriers. Otherwise, Gu Linjiang wouldn't be so anxious. He wanted to send Gu Zhihua back to the palace.
Judging from the current situation, the more eager Gu Zhihua is to return to the palace, the less he can let her get her wish so quickly. After all, it is impossible for him to solve the problem of Ye's frame-up of Qian'er this time. If you are willing to give up like this, you must have Gu Zhihua present so that you can continue with your matter.
After hearing Shen Qianshan's words, Gu Linjiang's face was obviously uneasy. After all, he was also a prime minister, with a position below one person and above ten thousand people. Ever since he took this position, he had never flattered others like this, if it hadn't been recently. During this period, his position in the court was slowly being threatened. He would never be defeated by a prince like Shen Qianshan.
"Your Majesty's words are obvious. After all, Qian'er and Zhihua are sisters. Even if Zhihua is ignorant, I, as the father, must be sensible. Otherwise, the entire Prime Minister's Mansion will collapse. Yet?"
Now is a special situation. Even Gu Linjiang will definitely be in a state where he can't make a choice. Now he has no capital to put on airs in front of Shen Qianshan, not to mention that he still has requests from the Ninth Prince's Mansion.
Gu Linjiang made a distressed look, "What the prince said is actually right. Zhihua did something wrong. It was me, the father, who failed to educate her well. If I had given her more when she was little, If I spend more time with her, things like today won't happen."
Gu Qiang really doesn't understand how Gu Linjiang can change his face so quickly. Doesn't it matter to him no matter what he does in order to achieve his own goal
"What my father said is quite interesting. Sister Zhihua is like this because her father dotes on her too much, which is why she has such a result today. If you are by her side every day, how can he Don’t you want to be pampered by you?”
Gu Qiang still doesn't understand. Is it because she married the Ninth Prince, who has no real power, that his father must sacrifice his own interests no matter what he faces
"There is no need to say more." Shen Qianshan's face suddenly turned cold, "Since the Prime Minister came here this time without any sincerity, then we don't need to say more. I think what happened today , that’s it for now, please go back first, the Prime Minister and the Second Young Lady, I won’t give you any more gifts.”
Shen Qianshan saw that Gu Qiang was a little excited, and he had long been extremely disgusted with the father and daughter in front of him. It was a rational move to issue an order to expel the guests early. As for whether Gu Zhihua could return to the palace, he completely listened to Qian'er. , if she relents, she will think carefully about whether to reveal all that matter.
As soon as Gu Zhihua heard that Shen Qianshan had issued the eviction order, he began to panic. He had not yet achieved his purpose of coming to the Nine Princes' Mansion, so how could he leave like this? If he left so easily, wouldn't he have wasted the clever plan his father had thought of for him today
Originally, as long as he apologized, this matter could be solved easily. But if he really angered Shen Qianshan and Gu Qiang, wouldn't his return to the palace be far away
"Eldest sister, eldest brother-in-law, Zhihua knows that he was wrong, please forgive me..."
Gu Qiang looked at the hypocritical Gu Zhihua and had no reaction. On the contrary, she felt a little disgusted, let alone after Gu Zhihua saw that she had no reaction. It was time to reach out and pull Shen Qianshan.
Shen Qianshan did not expect that Gu Zhihua would make such a move. He did not expect that Gu Zhihua would suddenly rush to his side. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and avoided Gu Zhihua's hand. , and she missed it.
"Princess, please respect yourself." Shen Qianshan said this with a cold face. To be honest, ever since Gu Zhihua was sent home, no matter what occasion Shen Qianshan mentioned Gu Zhihua, he always used the second name of the Gu family. The only time I addressed her by her first name was as the imperial concubine, but it was on such an occasion.
As soon as Gu Qiang saw this scene, he immediately thought of Gu Zhiyao who was still locked up in the woodshed.
"Qi Bai, go and bring the Fourth Miss over. Just say that Prime Minister Gu has come to the Ninth Prince's Mansion to pick her up in person." Gu Zhihua will not let go for the time being, but that's because Gu Linjiang has already arrived. Naturally, he couldn't let his good father go back empty-handed. He had already come, so he should settle everything.
Gu Linjiang looked at the attitudes of Gu Qiang and Shen Qianshan, and naturally knew that there might be no hope for Gu Zhihua's matter for the time being. In other words, this time, he and Gu Zhihua were in vain. But no matter what, at least Gu Zhiyao should be brought back. It is not a problem to always put him in the Nine Princes' Mansion.
"Qian'er, you still have to think about this matter again. After all, Zhihua is also your sister, so let her go..."
