The return of Mrs.
Bai Zhi shook her head, "The people on the other end of the main room were very tight-lipped. I only know that someone came to the palace at noon. Why did I fail to ask?"
Gu Mingyue tightened her handkerchief, frowned, and murmured to herself: "There are people coming from the palace, and Mrs. Xue comes back suddenly, why is it always different!"
Her expression was ferocious for a moment. Even Bai Zhi, who had been with her for many years, was startled when she saw this. Her girl seemed to have changed a lot. It was really uneasy to give her some strange tasks.
Gu Mingyue could not think about Bai Zhi's thoughts at this time. She felt flustered for no reason.
Things that never happened in her previous life kept happening. No matter how she interfered, it was all out of her control. What she experienced seemed to be like bubbles and phantoms, making it impossible for her to tell which was real and which was fake.
Is that person who is the mother of the world her own? Does she still have a chance to become the most noble woman in the world
"Girl?" Bai Zhi called Gu Mingyue cautiously.
Gu Mingyue was brought back to her senses by her shout, and turned to ask: "Ms. Xue is back home, is there any movement on the other side of Aunt Liu?"
Bai Zhi shook her head, "Aunt Liu has been staying peacefully in the yard recently and rarely goes out. The third girl, on the other hand, seems to be very dissatisfied with this. When talking to the maid, there was a hint of anger in her words."
Gu Mingyue sneered when she heard this. Her third sister was very ambitious. She wished she could step on Gu Mingmou's head. But she didn't have the brain yet. She could only say some mean words in private. She really had the guts to do something wrong. Smaller than anyone else.
But there are benefits to such a person. As long as you draw a big enough pie for her and let her see enough benefits, she will be used by you.
In the previous life... wasn't this how Gu Mingxin stepped on Gu Mingmou and became the Madam Hou Yongning
Everything hadn't started yet, she hadn't gotten Gu Mingmou's eyes yet, how could she give up so easily. Gu Mingyue clenched her fists, her eyes flashing with cruelty. It was hers, and no one could take it away.
It's just a variable. She believes that everything will be under her control sooner or later.
Gu Mingmou didn't sleep peacefully that night. Although he learned the inside story of the Queen Mother's summons from Prince Heng, it was not easy to deal with the matter properly. How could the Queen Mother be considerate of other people's thoughts? If Qi Lang hadn't been a prince of the Hou family, she would have issued a decree to grant the marriage.
When she summoned her mother, she would definitely not have anything nice to say, and since she was in the palace, she had to suffer any grievances she had. The more she thought about it, the harder it was for her to suppress the injustice in her heart. At the same time, she also understood why so many people wanted to marry into the royal family. The fact that one sentence could determine the rights of life and death would make people want to stop.
Before dawn, Gu Mingmou opened her eyes. Because she didn't sleep well, there was still a faint shadow under her eyes. After dressing up, she didn't have the time to eat, so she went directly to Xue's yard.
After taking people to the main courtyard, she found that there was no one else inside, except for a few maids. She was a little surprised at first, but Xiuyue reminded her later.
"Girl, the old lady sent someone into the main courtyard before. I'm afraid Madam won't live here anymore."
Gu Mingmu suddenly realized that she knew her mother's temper very well. Maybe she didn't care about what Mrs. Gu did in her heart, but she was not someone who could be manipulated easily. She was willing to come back because of the Queen Mother's instructions, not to give the Gu family face. This matter was not over yet.
"Go and ask, where does my mother live?"
According to Li Mingmou's guess, it was probably the courtyard farthest from her father's study.
Gu Yong was probably really stimulated by Aunt Zhang's incident this time. He didn't even go to Aunt Liu's place and moved to the study to sleep alone.
Gu Mingmou just laughed after knowing it. First Aunt Ning and then Aunt Zhang, each of them seemed to be sincere to him, but they were poisoned in their hearts. I wonder if he had any psychological shadow. It's a pity that Aunt Liu has become a useless stepping stone.
Sure enough, the news Xiuyue came back from after inquiring was as she expected. After Mrs. Xue came back, she had someone clean up a yard in the southwest corner and move in. No one went there on weekdays and it was very quiet.
Gu Yong is naturally unwilling, but unfortunately he has no position to persuade him. The little friendship between him and Xue has been polished off in the early years, and saying it rashly will only make him feel uncomfortable.
I have no face.
Gu Mingmou took Xiuyue and Sanqi to Xue's residence. The yard was not big, but it looked lush because it had been abandoned all year round. There was also a pomegranate tree in the yard with lush branches and leaves, providing a shade.
As soon as they saw Gu Mingmou coming, Xue's two personal maids quickly opened the curtains, knelt down and saluted before whispering: "Madam is waiting for the girl."
Although he only came back last night, the house had already been tidied up and the usual furnishings were not missing. Gu Mingmou felt at ease when he saw this.
"Here you come?" Mrs. Xue was wearing a white Sichuan satin embroidered with blue lilies, her hair was in a bun, and her earrings were sapphire, which contrasted with her clear eyes. She was so depressed compared to when she was at the Gu family, and now she is It really came to life.
"Mother."
"You haven't eaten yet, have you? Come here to eat first, and we'll talk later if you have anything to say." Mrs. Xue waved to her and said with a smile.
Knowing that Mrs. Xue would come back, someone from the palace would probably pick her up soon. There was no trace of nervousness on her face. Compared to Gu Mingmou, Mrs. Xue was more calm.
Gu Mingmou had a lot to say, but she couldn't tell her mother directly. The cause of everything was that Princess Anyang wanted to steal her fiancé. She shouldn't know so much, and she could only go so far. Gu Mingmou's mind changed. This The meal didn't taste very good either.
Mrs. Xue saw that her daughter was worried and didn't ask any questions. After eating quietly, mother and daughter had time to talk.
"Do you have anything to say to your mother?" During the meal, she saw her daughter looking up at her from time to time, as if she was hesitant to speak. I'm afraid this is something serious.
"It's the Queen Mother who summoned you to the palace. My daughter has been thinking about it for a long time. The only person who can be involved is probably Princess Anyang. But my daughter doesn't understand why the Queen Mother is alarmed."
Mrs. Xue raised her eyebrows, "Princess Anyang...the legitimate daughter of the King of Jin?"
Gu Mingmou nodded and briefly told what happened at the racecourse that day. After hearing what she said, Mr. Xue's smile gradually turned cold, "Did Qi Lang save the princess who was frightened that day?"
"Um."
"It's a coincidence." Gu Mingmou and Xue mentioned the rumors of Qi Lang and Shen Ying's affair before, but they were not credible because there was no evidence. Now that the two are involved again, it's hard not to think about it.
