"Prince Heng's biological mother's surname is Bai." Gu Mingmu smiled half-heartedly.
"Is it possible... But the second girl probably doesn't know, right?" Xiuyue said hesitantly.
"Who knows, maybe it's just a coincidence. It happened that the second sister walked to the lake, happened to contradict Princess Xin'an for a little girl she didn't know, happened to know the nature of water and didn't drown, and happened to save Prince Heng's cousin." Gu Mingmou chuckled.
So many things are listed just right. Even Xiuyue can see the weirdness from the perspective of a bystander. The most weird thing is that the second girl and a concubine dare to contradict the princess. This is no longer brave, but stupid. If she does it all Inadvertence may even affect the entire family.
"Girl, will Princess Xin'an be angry with Madam because of this?"
"Of course." Gu Mingmou looked at the calm lake in the distance, and his words were unexpectedly calm.
She turned her head and looked at Xiuyue, who looked worried, and continued, "Not only that, my mother will definitely scold the second sister after she goes back and make the family uneasy. Later, Prince Heng will give birth to the Bai family girl because the second sister saved the girl." If you give me a heavy gift, my mother will become a cruel and cruel aunt who abuses her concubine. At this time, if someone adds insult to injury, it is her mother who deserves it." After saying this, Gu Mingmou couldn't help but laugh, but the laughter contained a terrifying depth. chill.
Xiuyue knew that her young lady's speculation was very possible. The premise of all this is based on the relationship between Prince Heng and Miss Bai, but I am afraid that few people know about this relationship, at least the ladies around Princess Xin'an don't know about it. It happened that her girl knew it, and the second girl might also know it.
"Miss, do you want to tell Madam this first?"
"Let's go find mother." She took a deep breath and left with her maid.
Not long after she left, two young men walked out of the rockery where they were hiding. One of them was a little thin and pale, but he was handsome. The other person was tall, wearing a black brocade robe embroidered with dark silver dragon patterns, and a nine-dragon pendant around his waist. Regardless of his stern appearance, his aura alone made people breathless. This person is none other than Prince Heng mentioned in Gu Mingmou's words just now, the future Emperor of Yan - Shen Guiye.
"Miss Bai seemed to have been quite frightened just now. She wanted to
Don't want to see her? "The king of Donglin County looked at the sparkling lake, and the corners of his mouth rose.
"She was not the one who fell into the water." The implication was that there was no way she could be frightened.
Qin Shen, the king of Donglin County, couldn't help but rolled his eyes. Can women be the same as men? But thinking about the girl just now, it seemed that it was not a big deal. After all, it was my sister who fell into the water, and I didn't see her panicking.
Qin Shen didn't really like the girl just now. He thought she was a little cold-hearted and a little delusional about persecution, but he had to admit that what she said was an eye-opener for men like them who had never been exposed to the inner house.
He couldn't help but turned to look at Shen Guiye curiously, and asked with curiosity: "Are you really going to give a big gift to the person who saved Miss Bai?"
Shen Guiye's face darkened and he did not answer Qin Shen's doubts.
If the woman hadn't said those words just now, he would definitely do this. After saving his cousin, he was naturally able to withstand his generous gift, but the woman's words changed everything. Was it premeditation or coincidence
And that woman, she knows too much...
When Gu Mingmou rushed over, Xue had already come out of the princess's place, and Gu Mingyue was following behind.
"Mother, I heard that the princess is looking for you, are you okay?"
Mr. Xue smiled and looked pretty good, "It's okay, let's go back first."
The princess did not say anything serious just now, but Princess Xin'an didn't give her any face. Gu Mingyue, a concubine, dared to contradict the princess, and all the blame was placed on her, the legitimate mother.
Thinking of the vicious look in Princess Xin'an's eyes before she left, Xue's heart sank, and he looked at the concubine with an increasingly unkind look.
Seeing this, Gu Mingmou hugged Mrs.
Ms. Xue frowned. There was still a mess waiting for her to solve, but her daughter had always been well-behaved and never made any requests, and she didn't want to refuse.
"Forget it, you go back with the second girl later, send her to the old lady, and tell her what happened before." Ms. Xue ordered the maids around her and ignored Gu Mingyue.
After sending Gu Mingyue to Huihu Mansion, Xue and Gu Mingmou did not get out of the car.
Take him to Baizhentang.
In the carriage, Mrs. Xue looked at her daughter, who was holding her chin in one hand and looking out through the window with a nonchalant expression. She finally couldn't help but said, "Tongtong, do you know something?"
"Mother, are you referring to the second sister rescuing Miss Bai?"
"Sure enough, you already knew." How could Xue not know what her daughter's character was? If she didn't mean to get rid of Gu Mingyue, she wouldn't have made such a willful request.
"When all that happened, my daughter happened to be passing by. Not only that, my daughter also knew a piece of news that no one else knew."
"oh?"
"Miss Bai is Prince Heng's cousin."
Xue's face instantly darkened, "How did you know?"
Gu Ming's eyes were dumbfounded, looking at her mother's ugly face, a chill swept from behind her. She relived her life, standing on the commanding heights and looking down at others, but she didn't realize how insignificant she was now, how dare she be so complacent.
"Mother..." Gu Mingmou murmured. She didn't want to tell her mother everything, because she felt that her mother wouldn't want a daughter who was blackened from the inside out, a daughter who was beyond recognition and lived only for hatred.
"That's all, I won't ask, mother, but are you sure?" Looking at her daughter's red eyes, Mrs. Xue sighed. She could more or less feel the changes in her daughter. When Tongtong met Gu Yong before His eyes were full of admiration, but now they were filled with indifference.
She didn't know why her daughter had such a change, but the person in front of her was undoubtedly her daughter, and that was enough.
"able."
Ms. Xue nodded. If Miss Bai had such a relationship with Prince Heng, she would be able to understand what Mingyue did.
Gu Mingmou believed that her mother was a smart person. As long as she knew the most crucial point, she would be able to avoid future events without her help as a daughter.
In the evening, the mother and daughter finally returned. As soon as they entered the door, they saw the maid serving the old lady hurried over and saluted Mr. Xue, "Madam, the old lady wants you and the eldest daughter to come over immediately."
"Lead the way."
The old lady's house was busy. In addition to Xue and Gu Mingmou, everyone in the big room was actually here. Even Gu Yong, who had rarely been seen in the past, was also there.
