Gao Xiuyi eventually fell ill with tuberculosis.
On the day of her death, Master Yu was not at home. He had been hiding outside for more than half a year in order to escape his debts, leaving only a bunch of mess for Gao Xiuyi.
Xiao Yu hates Concubine Gao, and naturally will not easily bypass Concubine Gao's maiden family. The tragedy of Gao Yu's family is caused by Xiao Yu alone. But was Gao Xiuyi's fate, perhaps because the Gao family gave up on her
Perhaps in the eyes of these people in power, girls are born to be sacrificed for the family.
Xie Yunqing is fortunate that her parents have never abandoned herself, even if she brought the Xie family into the vortex of fighting for power and profit.
Gao Xiuyi lowered her head and remained silent, even Luo Huixin put away the emotions on her face, and said nothing.
Xie Yunqing continued: "I have a way. You don't have to become a family pawn, nor do you have to make any choices."
"What way?"
Luo Huixin spoke first, and Gao Xiuyi also raised her head, watching Xie Yunqing not speaking.
"Even though Concubine Gao Gui is the emperor's favorite concubine, and the crown of the harem, it can be said that she doesn't care about the queen, but she only has concerns about two people.
Xie Yunqing's words were a bit rebellious, but there were only Luo Huixin and Gao Xiuyi in the house. She believed that they would not spread her words, so she didn't hesitate to say it.
Gao Xiuyi and Luo Huixin listened, but they didn't notice any problems. After all, Xie Yunqing was also telling the truth.
Although the queen and the emperor were husband and wife when they were young, and respected the emperor as guests, they were not so close emotionally. Concubine Gao, on the other hand, was born as beautiful as a rose. She was loved by the emperor when she entered the palace. She gave birth to the second prince in the second year after entering the palace. He was later named a concubine by Jin, and for several years, he was named a noble concubine. It can be said that Concubine Gao's life has gone smoothly.
The eldest prince is weak and has no relationship with the throne. The second prince from Gao Guifei is most likely to become the prince. Now the harem all respects Gao Guifei. Concubine Gao has gained power, and even the queen has never had a direct conflict with her.
"I know that one is the empress dowager, and the queen mother is your majesty's biological mother. Concubine Gao is definitely afraid to be disrespectful to the queen mother. Who is the other?" Luo Hui scratched her ears and asked curiously.
Xie Yunqing looked at Luo Huixin, "Your grandmother, Princess Huayang."
Princess Huayang is the emperor's aunt, and she has made many sacrifices for the royal family. Even if she is the emperor, she must be respectful and respectful to the princess. Concubine Gao Gui has more or less desire to win over the princess. .
Only yes, Princess Huayang did not want to interfere with anything in the harem, and lived her life wholeheartedly.
"If Princess Huayang gave Xiuyi a marriage, Concubine Gao would not dare to say anything." Xie Yunqing said.
Luo Huixin has frowned her delicate eyebrows, "My grandmother has always ignored these things. What's more, she doesn't even know which men of the right age are in Beijing, how to give Xiuyi a marriage?"
"In fact, there is no need to specifically say good people, as long as the eldest princess expresses her willingness to talk to Xiuyi and let Concubine Gao hear her, she will no longer interfere in Xiuyi's marriage."
Concubine Gao Gui is a personal spirit. If you know that the princess has a caring heart for Gao Xiuyi, she will definitely find ways to get along with the princess.
The matchmaking between the eldest princess and Gao Xiuyi not only will not stop it, but will try to promote it.
"The key to the problem now is how to persuade the princess," Xie Yunqing put his hand on Luo Huixin's shoulder and encouraged: "It's up to you."
Luo Hui was stunned, then pointed her fingertips to her nose, and asked, "Me?"
Xie Yunqing nodded, "You are the granddaughter of the eldest princess the most beloved. If you go and behave with the eldest princess, she agreed. What's more, you and Xiuyi are classmates, so you can’t bear to see your best friend because This innocent calamity loses weight, and I implore the princess to come forward for Xiuyi. Isn't this a logical thing?"
Gao Xiuyi narrowed her mouth, "Who is her best friend? Who needs her to help me?"
Luo Huixin was agitated by Gao Xiuyi's words, and raised her hand to pat the table. "Don't worry, I will make sense of my grandmother when I go back."
Xie Yunqing covered her mouth and smiled, "You two, it won't be happy if you don't quarrel for a while."
It was getting late outside, and Xie Yunqing and Luo Huixin were about to go back, so Gao Xiuyi got up and sent them off.
They were going to say goodbye to Mrs. Gao as usual. When Mrs. Gao saw that her daughter's spirit seemed to be better, she was also a little grateful for the two girls, so she strongly invited them to stay for dinner.
Luo Huixin refused Madam Gao's invitation because the princess was very strict with her and couldn't stay outside too late. Xie Yunqing did not want to stay with the Gao family at all. Although Gao Xiuyi is very cute, most of the Gao family members are old foxes. Although Xie Yunqing is not afraid of them, he really does not want to see their faces, so he declined.
Xie Yunqing returned to the ** government, after dinner, accompanied Gu Yunshuang on a walk to digest.
"I've seen Miss Gao's family too. She is charming and lovely, but she has a real temperament. It's hard to be a little girl because she doesn't dare to go out because of this." Gu Yunshuang sighed softly, "Since she has a good relationship with you, you usually Go to accompany her more and talk, so as not to feel upset in her heart and hold back her heart disease."
Xie Yunqing cuddles with Gu Yunshuang, this is her mother, who understands righteousness and kindness.
Grand Princess Mansion, Grand Princess Huayang is drinking tea. She used to drink scented tea, but she prefers Pu'er when she is old. The tea that the elder princess drank was also the best tea. The tribute from Yunnan was less than 100 jin, and the emperor gave 20 jin to the eldest princess.
"Let's talk, don't hold it down?" The princess said after drinking half a cup of tea.
Luo Huixin, who has been thinking about what to say, was surprised, "Grandma, how do you know I have something to do with you?"
"I don't know you yet?" The princess shook her head amusingly, "When you came back from the Gao family to see me, you seemed to be hesitant to talk. Why, your classmate is not in good condition?"
Luo Huixin told the eldest princess about Gao Xiuyi's situation, and told the eldest princess what Xie Yunqing taught her, but did not say who made the idea.
The eldest princess listened, pondered for a while, and then said seriously: "You tell grandma, who made the idea?"
"It's my idea," Luo Hui said nervously, shook the princess's arm, and stretched her voice to act like a baby. "Grandma, just answer me, do you agree or not?"
"You tell me who made the idea, and I will consider whether to agree to your request."
The princess was not in a hurry, and took another sip of tea.
"I said it was my attention, why don't you believe me?" Luo Huixin sat back, pouting dissatisfiedly.
The princess nodded Luo Huixin's head, "If you had this mind, I would have burned incense and worshiped the Bodhisattva. I thought about it. The little girl from the Xie family who accompanied you today was from her. Idea?"
"It's not her, how can she come up with this way, grandmother, do you look down on your granddaughter like this?"
"I will call her over and ask a few words in the next day to make sense." The princess smiled. Although her granddaughter is smart, she is not sophisticated in human relationships. Although she is open-minded, she is still too simple. .
I only hope that she can learn a little bit more with the little Nizi from the Xie family, and don't let others stumble in the future.
"Grandma, you must never find her, or she would think I am a talkative person." Luo Hui said nervously, her eyes widening.
The eldest princess shook her head helplessly, "Grandma knows it, but it's just teasing you, don't worry, grandma will do what you asked grandma to do."
After Luo Huixin heard this, she felt more at ease, and stopped pestering the princess, and went back to her room to play with the cat she raised.
The next day, the eldest princess posted a post to several clan wives and invited them to the princess mansion to enjoy the flowers.
Those who can be invited by the eldest princess are naturally not the idle generation. The eldest son and concubine of the Prince Heng's Mansion, the prince's wife, the wife of Wei Guogong, the wife of the left minister, the wife of the Yudu Yushi of the Imperial Court, and any of them are the most prestigious in Beijing. The female family members of the noble family.
The flowers in the princess mansion are naturally the most famous in the capital, but the princess Huayang has never liked publicity and rarely hosts banquets to outsiders. Therefore, the ladies who received the posts were a little strange in their hearts.
Gu Yunshuang knew something vaguely in his heart, but still a little confused.
Several aristocratic wives arrived at the princess mansion as scheduled, but the eldest princess did not show off. When they arrived at the princess mansion, they were led to see the princess.
The prince and concubine of Prince Heng were both family members of the clan, and she naturally got acquainted with the eldest princess. She went to rub her shoulders for the eldest princess, and asked with a smile: "Auntie, why are you interested in setting up a flower viewing? Banquet? All of us are full of children and grandchildren. We can't compare to those little girls. How can we have the heart to admire the flowers? Seeing these beautiful flowers, thinking that we are not young anymore, I might be ashamed to death. "
As soon as she finished speaking, the few wives in the room already laughed.
Both Prince Heng and his princes are long-lived people. Both are in their seventies and are still in good health. The elder son and concubine are both over fifty years old, but both husband and wife are very talkative and talkative people. The concubine's words both praised the princess and enlivened the atmosphere.
The eldest princess was also amused by the words of the concubine, and gently patted her cheek, "You, ten on one mouth, there is no one who can talk better than you."
Everyone wandered around the garden twice, and they were all trying to figure out the intention of the eldest princess to entertain them, but the eldest princess was not in a hurry, pulling them to introduce the exotic flowers and grasses in the garden, and not afraid of the trouble. Yihuamu talked about how to cook.
Several people became more strange and suspicious.
