174, provoking Pei
After Mrs. Zheng finished speaking, the aunts stared at Gu Qianxue eagerly. After all, this opportunity was once in a thousand years.
In Nanyue country, my aunt can't get on the stage. If a certain official family holds a party and banquet, it's a great face for my aunt to follow, let alone the palace.
It can be said that there is no such thing as a concubine's room at the banquet in the palace.
Of course, Aunt Pei of Gu Shangshu Mansion is an exception.
The first thing Gu Qianxue looked at was Aunt Pei.
Although Aunt Pei is at a low point in her life, she has to say that she can hold her breath. Unlike Aunt Liu and Aunt Zhou who jump up and down like Aunt Liu and Aunt Zhou, Aunt Pei has always kept a low profile so that no one can find her weakness.
The more this is the case, the more terrifying it is!
If she had a choice, Gu Qianxue really hoped that Aunt Pei would rush to her yard and slap her twice, so that she could feel at ease. But in fact, every time Aunt Pei saw Gu Qianxue, she had a "gentle and loving" smile on her face, and then she avoided it without saying a word.
The calm before the storm!
This is what Gu Qianxue is most afraid of. She has a premonition that either Aunt Pei will not have an attack, or if it does, it will not be resolved with just a few words.
Could it be that Aunt Pei is really planning something secretly
Does the deity still have any handles in Aunt Pei's hands
Gu Qianxue couldn't figure it out, but one thing was certain, Aunt Pei would never live in Gu's mansion like this.
"Grandmother, Qianxue is still young and doesn't know the rules of the palace, so I don't know if it is appropriate for this aunt to enter the palace." She said, looking at Aunt Pei.
No one expected that the eldest lady who had experienced the turmoil of King Li had always been kind to others, but at this critical moment her future was cut off, and she secretly hated her hypocrisy.
Mrs. Zheng was also like the aunts, thinking that Gu Qianxue was hating Aunt Pei, "Since the empress's decree specifically stated that there are no restrictions on people, it should be the emperor's grace, so let aunt come to the banquet. What's more, the empress invited her to the banquet alone. Mrs. Pei." Saying that, the finger with the emerald ring casually pointed at Aunt Pei.
—It seems that Aunt Pei must go.
As a modern person who advocates human rights, although Gu Qianxue can't accept her future husband as a concubine, she can't even talk about contempt for concubines. After all, they are all products of the era when men are superior to women.
If you can choose freely, who would like to be a concubine instead of a regular wife
What I did just now was to test Aunt Pei. If there was even a hint of anger or pride in Auntie Pei's eyes, Gu Qianxue would be relieved, but Auntie Pei's eyes were very calm, and there was something called "understanding" in those eyes looking at Gu Qianxue.
Gu Qianxue's heart sank again, she was almost certain that Aunt Pei must have some kind of big conspiracy, if she didn't have an attack, she might kill her, and if she did, she might kill Gu Qianxue.
"It turns out that Qianxue is narrow-minded, and the empress's heart is really not something that ordinary people like me can measure," Gu Qianxue's voice suddenly changed, "In this case, there is no limit to the number of empresses, we all go." Saying, He secretly observed Aunt Pei again.
Aunt Pei was stunned for a moment, and her eyes became a little complicated, but in the next moment, she regained her calmness and indifference.
Gu Qianxue thinks that she is more of a "Holy Mother", and her life is not focused on fighting for favor in the backyard or matching up with a good match. She does not believe that Aunt Pei, who never leaves the door, is more "Holy Mother" than her.
Heh, since Aunt Pei wanted to pretend, she wanted to demolish Aunt Pei.
Not to mention Mrs. Zheng, even all the aunts were taken aback.
Because even if there is no limit to the number of empresses, if they are placed in any family, the whole family cannot show their faces in the palace to have a meal.
"This...is there too many people?" Zheng was in a dilemma.
Gu Qianxue smiled and said, "So, Qianxue is not in charge of such a big event, so why does grandma wait for me to come back?"
The meaning is obvious, that is - since Mrs. Zheng asked Gu Qianxue to make up her mind, she must listen to her, otherwise, don't be so hypocritical next time.
Mrs. Zheng hesitated, and she could tell from her tone that Gu Qianxue wanted all the aunts to enter the palace out of anger, but if they all went, would it be a joke
If it is allowed, Mrs. Pei will definitely not be able to step down; but if she is not allowed, she may offend Gu Qianxue.
Even Mrs. Zheng didn't realize that in just a few months, the eldest lady, who was almost transparent, became the number one person who could influence people's decisions.
Aunts naturally want to enter the palace, that is the palace! The legendary palace! Not to mention ordinary women, even official women, how many of them have actually entered the palace
The aunts looked at Gu Qianxue with pleading eyes, especially those aunts with daughters, if they were asked to cut off a piece of meat in exchange for tickets to the palace dinner, they would be willing to do so.
After all, this banquet may determine the future marriage of his daughter.
Mrs. Zheng hesitated, but Gu Qianxue softened her voice, "Grandmother, it can be said that although everyone here is a aunt, since you have entered the door of our Gu family, you are a member of our Gu family. It is also an aunt, someone can enter the palace Wouldn't it be unfair if someone couldn't enter the palace to attend the banquet?" As he spoke, he looked at Aunt Pei with provocative eyes.
Aunt Pei still had a faint smile on her face, but her forehead covered by her bangs had bulging veins, her hands under the sleeves were tightly clenched, and the long nails were deep in her palms, and she didn't even know it.
Gu Qianrou was so angry that she was about to open her mouth to curse, but she was stopped by Aunt Pei. In the end, she could only lower her head, shaking so much that she wanted to cry.
Although Gu Qianrou is a concubine daughter, she has always been more beautiful than a concubine daughter. How has she ever been so ashamed
Gu Qianxue continued, "The family house seeks peace, but peace is based on fairness. If fairness cannot be achieved, how can there be peace?"
That being said, everyone knows that there is no such thing as fairness in this world.
Even so, in order to be able to enter the palace for the banquet, the aunts nodded desperately.
In the end, Mrs. Zheng weighed the usefulness of Gu Qianxue and the Pei family to the Gu family, and finally decided to side with Gu Qianxue. "You, is there anyone who objects to Qian Renxue's proposal?"
Naturally, no one objected.
So, Zheng said with a smile, "Forget it, just listen to Qianxue, please thank Qianxue, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, everyone should go and open their eyes, and it will be lively."
Regardless of their identities, the aunts came to express their thanks one after another, especially Aunt Zhou, who was even more grateful to Gu Qianxue.
Aunt Liu was a little bit aggrieved, because she thought she belonged to the eldest lady, and she obeyed what the eldest lady said, but the others did nothing. With such a good opportunity, why should everyone get it
But when Aunt Liu found out that the young miss had winked at her and nodded secretly, her heart blossomed like a flower. That kind of feeling is like a concubine who has been turned over by the emperor, and she is happier than serving the master all night.
175, different after all
