Three days later, Gu Yue was carried into the palace by a sedan chair.
No blessings, no wedding dress, no wedding, no wedding feast.
Only Mrs. Xie and Gu Teng came forward to give her some advice.
No one is optimistic about Gu Yue's life after entering the palace.
That is the palace after all!
Before going out, someone came to give gifts.
Ma Xiaoliu looked at Gu Yue with a smile, "My wife heard that my third aunt was going to marry into the Chu Palace, so she ordered me to come over and give her a ride. This is a little thought from my wife, please accept it with a smile. My wife also said , I wish grandma Sangu all her wishes come true and her future is bright."
disillusioned!
This is what everyone thinks.
Gu Jiu and Gu Yue have never dealt with each other, but Gu Jiu would actually send someone to give gifts
Even Gu Shan who was peeking behind the door ran out.
"Why did the second sister give her a gift? Could it be that she made a mistake."
Ma Xiaoliu said: "There is no mistake. My wife heard that Sangu's grandma was accepted as Liang Di by the Chu Palace, so she said, 'My wife knew that the third sister was unwilling, and she still came to this step'."
When Gu Shan heard this, she burst out laughing.
Gu Yue was a little embarrassed, "Your wife really said that? She's not a roundworm in my stomach, how could she know what I'm thinking."
Ma Xiaoliu said: "Of course my wife is not the roundworm in the third aunt's stomach, but my wife is very accurate. She said, 'The third sister is a strong person. If a widow marries again, she will not let it go. I would rather be a concubine than a concubine. As a small household wife, prosperity and wealth are more important than anything else'."
Gu Yue gritted her teeth and snorted, "I will accept the gift. Go back and tell your wife, thank her for her kindness. If there is a chance tomorrow, I will thank her personally."
Ma Xiaoliu said with a smile: "Third Gu grandma wants to thank my wife in person, but she has to work harder. As the Liangdi of the Wangfu, she is not qualified to come to my wife to say hello."
Too much deception!
Gu Yue gritted her teeth, "Don't worry, sooner or later I will stand upright in front of your wife."
She pulled the gift list, got into the sedan chair, and left.
Ma Xiaoliu also took the opportunity to say goodbye and returned to the palace to return to his command.
…
palace.
Gu Jiu listened to Ma Xiaoliu's report on the situation of the Gu residence.
"... Grandma Sangu seems to be pregnant, so the king of Chu made an exception and took her into the palace."
Gu Jiu smiled when she heard this, "I knew she had a reputation, but I never thought that she would hook up with the King of Chu. Xie Shi is obviously the pimp."
"Ma'am, do you want to keep staring at Grandma Sangu?"
"No need! She is not a fuel-efficient lamp. Once she enters the palace, she will naturally not keep her own place. But the Chu palace has a more powerful master than her. In a short time, she will not be able to stir up trouble."
Gu Yue had never been in contact with the concubine Sun, she didn't know how powerful the concubine Sun was.
Just because the concubine Sun rescued the young prisoner below and made Fang Shaojian work for her, it can be seen that the rank of the concubine Sun is more than ten blocks away from Gu Yue.
Concubine Sun has fought in the East Palace for decades, and has never seen any battles.
With Gu Yue's current rank, the concubine Sun can crush her with one finger.
When Gu Yue falls into the hands of the concubine Sun, just wait and cry.
…
In Chu Wangfu.
Concubine Sun's attitude towards King Chu Na Gu Yue's entrance was to slap King Chu directly.
crisp! Loud!
"You can't even control your lower body. What do you use to compete with others? Next time, your opponent will just play a beauty trick, and you will fall short."
"My son knows his mistake!"
King Chu's cheeks were burning hot, not because of being beaten, but because of embarrassment.
"Is it useful just to know a mistake?"
"My son doesn't like Gu Yue."
"fart!"
The concubine Sun yelled, "You are the face of the servant of the household department. Is it something you can beat if you want? The matter has come to this point, so I can only let her in. This Gu Yue may come in handy in the future, so let's keep it for now." with her."
"Son understands."
Because Gu Yue's surname was Gu, she escaped the first catastrophe.
…
Gu Jiu found that something was wrong with Liu Zhao recently.
The specific performance is that I talk a lot less, and I am not as keen on exercising in bed as I used to be.
She didn't say anything, didn't ask.
She hoped that Liu Zhao would take the initiative to confess to her.
On this day, after Gu Jiu was busy with the things at hand, the sky had already darkened.
She asked casually, "Where is your son?"
"Young master came back early in the morning and drank in the document garden."
"Drinking?" Gu Jiu looked at the sky outside, "What kind of wine are you drinking at this time?"
She hesitated for a while before deciding to get up and go to the document garden.
She is trying to conceive now, and Liu Zhao, as her husband, should cooperate with abstaining from alcohol at this time, instead of hiding in the document garden to drink away her sorrows.
Standing at the gate of Wenshuyuan, one could already smell a strong smell of alcohol.
Gu Jiu frowned, and asked the servant girl, Shi Qin, "How long have you been drinking?"
"Madam Qi, the young master has been drinking for an hour."
Gu Jiu frowned even deeper, "Has it been like this recently?"
Shi Qin bowed and said: "In the past, the young master was very restrained and rarely drank alcohol. Today, for some reason, he asked someone to bring a few jars of wine when he came back, and he has been drinking until now."
Gu Jiu waved his hand, signaling the maids to back down.
She walked into the document court alone.
Liu Zhao glanced at her, and said drunkenly, "I'll sleep here at night, so I won't disturb you."
Gu Jiu sat down in front of him, "It's boring to drink alone, why don't I drink with you."
She picked up the wine glass, ready to pour herself a drink.
Unexpectedly, Liu Zhao snatched the wine glass from her hand and slammed it on the ground.
boom!
The wine glass hit the floor and made a noise, which startled the servants outside the door.
Gu Jiu rushed to the door and shouted: "It's okay, don't come in."
She looked at Liu Zhao dissatisfied, "You are angry, why are you angry at me?"
Liu Zhao's eyes were bloodshot, with cruel intent, "Didn't you say that you can't drink alcohol because you want to prepare for pregnancy. Then what kind of alcohol do you drink? Or, from the beginning to the end, you didn't want to have children."
"You fart!"
Gu Jiu scolded Liu Zhao angrily, "You got angry outside, don't vent your anger on me, and don't speculate on my intentions. Also, before I get pregnant, you'd better stop drinking. I don't want our child to have any problems .”
Liu Zhao picked up the jug and poured it vigorously. He responded to Gu Jiu in this way.
Snapped!
Gu Jiu slapped the table with a slap, "The more you talk about you, the more you drink, you are deliberately angry with me, aren't you? Liu, don't think that I am afraid of you. If you continue to behave like this, I will not give birth."
Liu Zhao snorted coldly, "You didn't want to have children from the beginning, did you?"
He approached her and continued to ask, "Do you really want to have a child for me? Gu Jiu, do you have the heart? You just look down on me like that? Look down on the status of the emperor's grandson's wife, don't you?"
"What are you crazy about?"
Gu Jiu knocked off Liu Zhao's hand.
Liu Zhao's pressing every step of the way, accusing her every sentence made her furious.
"If I don't want to have a baby for you, why do I bother to take care of my body? Liu, don't deceive me too much."
Liu Zhao sneered, "I should say this, Gu Jiu, don't deceive others too much. Don't trample on your sincerity, and don't treat everyone as fools.
Also, you want to have a baby now, but because you can't bear the pressure, you have to. You are worried about the gift of a woman in the palace, and you are worried that someone will affect your status, so you need a son to consolidate your status and identity. Ask yourself, do you really want kids? talk! "
He is like a crazy trapped beast, ready to bite anyone he catches.
Snapped!
Gu Jiu raised his hand and slapped Liu Zhao on the face.
Liu Zhao was stunned. Alcohol affected his brain, which slowed his reaction by half a beat.
Gu Jiu pointed at him, "Liu, don't speculate on me with your filthy thoughts. You keep saying that you want me to have a baby, so let me ask you, how many days did you stay in the mansion after two years of marriage
In the first year, within half a month of our marriage, you were imprisoned in Zongzheng Temple and did not come back until the fall of that year. I didn’t rest for a few days after I came back, and went to work in the military camp again. I only came back three or two days a month.
This year, at the beginning of spring, you went to Beirong, and you came back after half a year. Beforehand, you don't tell anyone, how embarrassed I am when others ask me what you are up to.
It's not easy for you to come back. An's birthday is only a few days away, so you just hide here and drink for me, and you dare to accuse me of not wanting children.
I want to have a baby, but you are not here, who am I going to have a baby with? After all, you don't have to go out on business or go to the military camp, and you can finally have a baby, but you are causing me problems again. The surname Liu, if you don't want to think about it, and you deliberately find fault, make it clear as soon as possible. Madam Ben can live without you. "
Liu Zhao looked at her indifferently, "It's all my lord's responsibility, is it my lord who won't give you a chance to have a child?"
Gu Jiu sneered, and asked back: "Can I give birth to a child by myself?"
Liu Zhao sneered, "The last time I was in the palace, I saw your ability to turn right and wrong into black and white. If I don't come up with some convincing evidence, the shit is destined to be on my head. You keep saying that you want to Having a baby, what is this?"
Snapped!
A prescription was photographed on the table.
Liu Zhao gritted his teeth and asked word by word: "Do you recognize it? Are you familiar? In the past two years, all the health-preserving soups you ate were made according to this recipe. Tell me, the above What is the use of the raccoon grass? Tell me!"
Gu Jiu frowned, how could this prescription fall into Liu Zhao's hands.
She looks at him.
He sneered, "Isn't it strange, why do I have this prescription? You probably forgot, this prescription has been stuck in the book, unfortunately, I found it.
You keep saying that because I have been away from the mansion for a long time, I can't conceive and have children, and everything is my responsibility. If it is really my responsibility, I admit it. But in fact, you have been secretly contraceptive for the past two years. The prescription is here, now what can you say? "
Gu Jiu took a deep breath, "That's because I was weak in the past and was not suitable for conception, so I had to make a bad plan. Now my body has been recuperated and I can conceive."
hehe…
Liu Zhao sneered again and again, he looked at her, and asked with a painful expression: "You are not in good health, you are not suitable for conception, why didn't you tell me? In your heart, I am the kind of person who knows that you are not in good health, but still force you Are you pregnant? Am I so unworthy of your trust
You keep saying that husband and wife are one, but today I solemnly ask you, have you ever trusted me after two years of marriage? Have you ever thought about me for a moment in your heart? "
Gu Jiu was silent for a long time.
Liu Zhao picked up the jug and smashed it heavily on the ground.
"Well, you don't have to say anything. Leave me alone."
Gu Jiu gritted his teeth, and said solemnly: "There was a time when I did hate you. I hated you for choosing me as your wife, forcing me to marry into the royal family, and enduring pressure that I shouldn't have to bear. But that hatred comes after getting married. The queen has disappeared. I said that we are a husband and wife, which is the truth."
"Please stop talking." Liu Zhao shook his head, he didn't want to hear anything now, "Please let me be quiet, okay?"
Liu Zhao at this moment is painful and fragile.
His heart ached so badly that it made him feel bad for a while.
Especially when facing Gu Jiu, he was even more heartbroken.
"Please, go away. I don't want to see you right now."
Gu Jiu stood up, "Okay, I'm leaving. I hope you can give me a chance to have a good talk."
Liu Zhao lowered his head and didn't even look at her.
Gu Jiu took a deep breath and left the document garden with a heavy heart.
She stood under the eaves, listening to the movement inside.
Suppressed sobs.
How much pain does it take to drive a proud grandson to such a point.
Hiding in the room alone, weeping secretly.
Gu Jiu looked up at the starry sky, was she wrong
Maybe, she was really wrong.
A tear fell down his cheek.
She raised her hand and gently wiped away the tear.
At this moment, she doesn't want anyone to see her vulnerable side.
"lady?"
Qingmei looked at her worriedly.
Although she didn't hear what Madam and Young Master talked about in detail, she knew that Madam and Young Master had quarreled.
This is not a small quarrel like in the past, this time it must be a very serious quarrel.
She was worried whether the madam and the young master could cross this hurdle.
"Ma'am, are you all right?"
Qingmei called out again.
Gu Jiu nodded, "It's fine."
She was still standing under the eaves, with no intention of leaving.
Qingmei was very worried, "Madam, do you want to go back?"
Gu Jiu was silent.
Qingmei didn't dare to ask again.
The other servants, who hid far away, did not dare to approach.
The atmosphere is too dignified, too serious.
Something bad must have happened.
Gu Jiu has been paying attention to the movement inside.
The sound gradually became quieter, and finally the whole world was quiet.
There is a wind blowing, rustling the leaves with it.
A few yellow leaves were blown by the wind and fell down.
It's like the mood at this moment has fallen to the eighteenth floor of hell.
She looked at Lin Shuping who was guarding the door.
Lin Shuping hesitated for a moment, "Old slave, go in and have a look, don't you get drunk, young master."
After speaking, he walked into the study lightly.
After a while, he came out, "Ma'am, the young master is still drinking. He told you to go back first, and said,"
"What are you talking about? Just tell me, Mrs. Ben won't blame you."
Lin Shuping was a little nervous, licked his lips, and said, "Young Master said, he doesn't want to see you."
"yes?"
Gu Jiu nodded, "I see. I'll come back another day."
After finishing speaking, Gu Jiu led the people and left without any remembrance or reluctance.
Lin Shuping watched Gu Jiu leave, then walked into the study to return to his command.
"My lord, Madam has already left."
Liu Zhao drank the wine in silence, feeling like driftwood, drifting around, unable to find a place to land.
Lin Shuping opened his mouth, "My lord, drink less. My wife said that you can't drink alcohol when you are trying to conceive."
"roll!"
Liu Zhao gritted his teeth, his eyes were full of hatred.
Lin Shuping sighed, left silently, and loyally guarded the door.
Gu Jiu returned to the upper courtyard and remained silent the entire time, even without eating dinner.
"Ma'am, let's eat something." Qing Mei persuaded.
Gu Jiu shook her head, "Take it off, I don't have any appetite today."
Qing Mei persuaded again, "Madam and Young Master quarrel, at least you should take care of your health."
"Don't worry, no one will die from starvation."
Gu Jiu waved her hand to stop Qing Mei from persuading her.
She needed silence at this moment, absolute silence.
She sent everyone out and sat alone in the small study, meditating.
Looking back on the two years of married life, Gu Jiu felt like a joke.
She thought that she had prepared herself long ago to become a qualified emperor's grandson's wife.
In fact, everything is presumptuous.
She wasn't really ready for it.
She's been living her own life.
Therefore, when Liu Zhao asked her if she had ever trusted him, she could only be silent.
She could not deceive Liu Zhao, nor could she deceive herself.
Deep down in her heart, she trusts no one but herself.
So she carries all the things by herself, and she does all the things by herself.
She never asked for help, never cried out that she was tired.
It's just because deep down in her heart, she lacks a sense of trust.
She picked up the teacup, using the tea as wine, trying to get herself drunk.
Unfortunately, the more she drank, the more sober she became.
The more awake, the more painful.
