Rebirth of the Beloved Princess

Chapter 80: innocent

Views:

"I almost thought I couldn't come back." The posture of raising his head was too tiring, so Gu Mingmou buried her head back and muttered in his arms. Fortunately, it was quiet at night, and the two maids didn't know if they were guarding the door, or if they didn't know that a man had entered her boudoir.

"No." Although she was still angry yesterday, she still made arrangements for her early in the morning. A woman who has been a concubine has been cautious all her life. Even if she is now a queen mother, some habits cannot be changed overnight.

The current Queen Mother is like this, especially when there is a concubine in the harem who cannot deal with her at all times. She is even more unwilling to be caught and separated from the emperor. After all, even her biological mother cannot compare to her sweetheart who sleeps with her day and night.

"Then will she still call her mother into the palace?"

"No, the Yongning Hou Mansion should have received the news by now. They will not let the Queen Mother interfere." The reason why the Queen Mother went to Xue directly was because she could not use her power to suppress the Yongning Hou Mansion. Now Xue refused to give in. Once the Yongning Houfu finds out, I'm afraid they won't agree to terminate the engagement.

Fortunately, he did not intend to let the Queen Mother interfere with this marriage from the beginning. Although pushing the Queen Mother might make it easier to dissolve the marriage, the Queen Mother has always been ruthless. Once she succeeds, Gu Mingmou's reputation will be completely ruined. .

He didn't have this idea before, but now he is reluctant to let it go.

The news that the Empress Dowager summoned Xue did not spread widely. Only a few people in the palace knew about it. Besides, the Empress Dowager did not take it too seriously. It was related to the family affairs of Yongning Hou Mansion. Even if she knew the Empress Dowager's plan, , and no one wants to meddle in other people’s business.

Marquis Yongning only heard the news from the palace on the second day. He hid the news from Mrs. Hou immediately, and then called his son to the study.

"Father."

"Did you know?" There was no doubt on his son's face, and he clearly knew why he called him over. Yong Ninghou looked at his eldest son, feeling somewhat proud in his heart.

Although he was slightly dissatisfied with his future daughter-in-law's family, he remained silent because of his son's affection for Gu Mingmou.

As for the Jin Palace, it was originally a good relationship, but unfortunately he only has one son. The son's wishes are obviously more important, and Yongning

The Hou Mansion does not urgently need to establish relations with the royal family.

Although King Jin still seems to be favored and has considerable power, and there are many people in the court who want to curry favor with him, in the eyes of Marquis Yongning, this is a dangerous sign.

The emperor will not like a prince who is well-fed in the court, especially if the prince still holds military power and has not handed it over.

"My son heard that the Queen Mother summoned Mrs. Gu." Qi Lang replied expressionlessly.

"Do you have any idea?"

"My son has no intentions towards Princess Anyang, but he was just eager to save people that day."

"I understand what you mean, but what if the Gu family compromises?"

Qi Lang paused for a moment, and his eyes showed a bit of murderous intent at that moment, but he quickly restrained himself and whispered: "Tongtong will not agree, and neither will Mrs. Gu."

His Tongtong is an innocent little girl, so she must have been frightened this time.

And all this was caused by Shen Ying's brother and sister. Thinking of this, his eyes became colder and colder.

Yongning Hou paused and had to admit that what his son said was right. That Mrs. Gu... Although he had only met her a few times, she had always been a sister to her, and would occasionally mention her. With her temper, I am afraid that even if the Queen Mother wants her life, she may not let go.

"You have to know that although your mother and Mrs. Gu decided on the marriage, Mr. Gu is the head of the Gu family. Once he opens his mouth, my father cannot refuse."

"..." After being silent for a while, Qi Lang finally said, "Don't worry, father, my son will not let this happen."

Marquis Yongning nodded with satisfaction. Although such a small matter was not difficult to deal with, a slight mistake would offend Prince Jin's Mansion. At the moment, he was not willing to break up with Prince Jin's Mansion, so he could only let the junior handle it on his own.

After Qi Lang left Yongninghou's study, he immediately went to the stable, took the horse and went straight to Gu's house.

Unfortunately, halfway through, he was stopped by a carriage. The carriage lifted the curtain, and he saw the person sitting in the carriage at a glance.

"Prince Qi, my princess wants to talk to you alone about something."

The maid beside Shen Ying whispered to Qi Lang.

Qi Lang frowned and was about to refuse, but then

I heard, "It's related to Miss Gu."

When Gu Mingmou was mentioned, Qi Lang thought for a moment and nodded in agreement. The two of them entered the teahouse not far away one after the other.

"Anyang Princess, if you have anything to say, just say it." After entering the box, Shen Ying remained silent. Qi Lang finally lost his patience after waiting for a while.

Hearing him speak, Shen Ying raised her head, as if she had finally mustered up the courage, "Prince Qi, I... I'm sorry, I didn't expect my mother to go to Mrs. Hou, I... I'm sorry..."

While she was still talking, Shen Ying's tears fell down, looking aggrieved and ashamed.

Qi Lang looked at her rosy look, his face softened slightly, and his tone was not as cold as before, "Princess, you don't have to be like this."

"But, but, my mother went to the palace to beg the Queen Mother. I heard that the Gu family's sister and Mrs. Gu were both summoned to the palace yesterday. I really want to say sorry to her, but I don't have the shame to see Sister Gu anymore. ”

"Tongtong... I won't take it to heart." Speaking of this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly. That girl is very vindictive, how could she not take it to heart.

When she was called into the palace yesterday, she would definitely suffer some grievances from the Queen Mother, but she didn't say anything to herself, for fear of getting angry. If I go to see her now, it’s unclear whether I can see her in person.

Although Shen Ying didn't look like she was cheating, she was ultimately responsible for all this.

Shen Ying bit her lower lip and said hesitantly: "Prince Qi, can you help me and let me meet Miss Gu? I want to make it clear to her in person that I have not... never thought of ruining your marriage." The voice said Getting smaller and smaller, she glanced at Qi Lang secretly, then lowered her head, her eyes red.

Every man has vanity. If a woman has deep feelings for you, even if you have no feelings for her, you will still feel pity in your heart.

Although Qi Lang did not agree to arrange for Gu Mingmou to meet Shen Ying, Shen Ying's actions undoubtedly made him shaken.

He thought it was Shen Ying's intention to ruin his marriage, but now it seems that it was Princess Jin's plan, and Shen Ying should be innocent.

Qi Lang did not stay in the box for long. It was not good for him to be seen alone.

As he left, a person walked out of the box next door. It was Shen An, the eldest son of Prince Jin.
