Empress Dowager Jin was about to see Gu Yan, but Old Qu couldn't change it now. Thinking of what Gu Yan did today, the hatred suddenly surged into his heart, gritted his teeth, and knelt down with a "thump".

Everyone was shocked and looked at Old Qu. The female relatives of Dingyuan Hou Mansion behind her also looked at her in surprise and did not step forward to help her up.

"The Empress Dowager wants to make the decision for her wife!"

Empress Dowager Jin immediately frowned when she saw the old Qu family like this, and an unexpected look flashed in her eyes.

She has been eating vegetarian food and chanting Buddha's name in the harem for many years. She usually doesn't see anyone except Emperor Wen of Wei, Empress Feng and Prince An's family. She is a person who ignores everything. Today she was a fateful woman who held her back and was immediately unhappy. Besides, today is her son's birthday. If you have anything, you can't say it later. You have to say it today. Isn't this a bad luck for them!

Queen Mother Jin glared at Old Qu, but had to speak, "If you have anything to do, please tell me."

What can she do if she kneels down? She won’t cry to death if she doesn’t make decisions for her? Today is a good day, and she will lose her mood for such a good thing.

Old Qu thought that Empress Dowager Jin was the noble queen of the empress dowager and was the wife of fate. He should make the decision for the wife of fate. He would definitely find her if he had anything to do, but he forgot that today was the emperor's birthday and the time was wrong.

The old Qu did not know that the empress dowager was a little tired of her, so he lay on the ground and cried and said, "Empress Dowager, since Gu An's family came back, our Hou Mansion has been treating them carefully. First, he asked for 78,800 taels of silver in the mansion, and then acted as a domineering in the mansion. It was common for bullying sisters, and beating and scolding the servants was common. Finally, he spoke shocking words in public.

I was afraid that she would suffer a loss when she was too irritable, so I punished her to be confined. She was obedient and didn't really take a step forward in the waiting mansion. But who knew that this punishment caused another disaster. Somehow, she offended the county lord Jiahe and made the county lord leave angrily.

Today is the Emperor's birthday. It's not enough that she won't come. She even beat her uncle and interrupted her uncle's hand. Empress Dowager, you want to make the decision for her wife! She has been a county lord and a princess and a princess and a wife, and she has no choice but to do anything every day. Her wife can't stand it anymore. She asks the Empress Dowager to be considerate of her wife, but her wife has no choice."

Old Qu finished his words crying and covering his chest to faint, making people feel a little distressed when they saw it, and suddenly felt very sympathetic to her.

Empress Dowager Jin listened to Old Qu's crying and said that his mood had not fluctuated at all. She was like listening to stories and said nonsense. After that, she asked with interest, "She has his own hands?"

Old Qu choked and didn't recover for a long time, "What?"

Queen Mother Jin frowned, "I said, she broke Dingyuanhou's hand by herself?"

Old Qu shook his head hurriedly, "No, it was the maid next to her who did it, but..."

Old Qu was about to explain, but Empress Dowager Jin waved her hand indifferently, "Girl Yan didn't come? Okay, I understand, I will make the decision for you later."

When she heard that it was not Gu Yan who did it himself, Empress Dowager Jin suddenly lost interest. She just wanted to know how powerful Gu Yan was, and also wanted to see what Gu Yan looked like. If Emperor Wen of Wei had not stopped him, she would have called Gu Yan into the palace to see.

Thinking of this, Empress Dowager Jin complained about Emperor Wen of Wei again, saying that the girl was too young and was afraid of scaring her, and seeing her again in two years. She was also afraid that outsiders would be jealous of her if she had seen Gu Yan and would harm her. In short, she would not let her meet the little girl she could not help but let her like when she heard it.

Queen Mother Jin curled her lips secretly, then patiently glanced at the old Qu, who was crying with makeup, and her impatientness rose a little further.

"Take old lady Dingyuanhou to wash up."

A palace maid next to him walked out and half-helped the old Qu out of the hall.

When the old Qu came back after washing up, Empress Dowager Jin didn't even look at her, and waved her hand to lead the people to the Imperial Garden.

When Old Qu was confused, a woman came over her side and reached out to hold her arm.

"Mom, when did you say this matter is not good? I just said today that the Empress Dowager was a little angry. After you left, you didn't have a smile, and the Queen was not happy."

Old Qu looked back and saw that it was her eldest daughter whom she married to Cheng'enhou Mansion.

Old Qu was very happy to see his daughter, and clapped her hand and said, "If you don't say it today, there will be no chance. The Empress Dowager will not recruit people to the palace. How can I have that chance?"

Gu Qiuying pulled Old Qu and walked forward two steps, "It's not simple. You have someone send me a message to tell me that when I enter the palace, I just need to tell the queen. This little thing is necessary to tell the queen that it angers the queen and we can't afford to take care of it."

Before the old Qu's words were heard, Gu Mingli, the second daughter of the Gu family, came over and held the other arm of the old Qu's arms and said, "Sister is right. Although the Empress Dowager is not seeing outsiders, the Empress Dowager will meet you. Why should I take action yourself if you get an opportunity? She is just a xia                                                                                    

Gu Mingli married the youngest son of Duke Pu. Although life was a little messy, she had to be strong and had long lost confidence in her husband. She controlled the large amount of money in the family. She didn't care how many concubines her husband would take, but she lived a very comfortable life.

"My sister is right. Mom, you shouldn't have the same knowledge as her. Okay, let's do it now when things are born. My sister and I think of a way to not let the Empress Dowager and the Empress have a rift against you."

After Gu Qiuying finished speaking, she left without waiting for the old Qu family to speak.

Old Qu opened his mouth and looked around again, but said nothing. With Gu Rui's diligent support, he followed the army to the end.

The banquet was held in Qiyuan Hall not far from the Imperial Garden. It is the largest and most spacious palace in the entire palace. It was built by the founding emperor of the Great Wei Dynasty, indicating that the Great Wei Dynasty has opened a new chapter.

By then, Emperor Wen of Wei had already led the civil and military ministers to arrive first. Emperor Wen of Wei quickly walked down from the high seat and helped Empress Dowager Jin to the seat. Then he pulled Empress Feng, who was also supporting Empress Dowager Jin, to sit next to him.

Emperor Wen of Wei did not talk nonsense, and after a few words of scenes, the banquet began.

Singing and dancing at the banquet is essential. During the cup and cup, several ministers with good wine were drunk and stared at the dancer with their eyes squinted.

Emperor Wen of Wei didn't care either. Although the women in the palace were all his, he was really not interested. If a minister liked any dancer, he would give it to him and win over the court officials.

Emperor Wen of Wei glanced at everyone, saw the actions of the ministers, and realized their thoughts.

The lustful ones are still the ones, and the others are all fine, and a few are even looking at each other. Obviously, like him, they are not interested in these women.

Old Qu sat next to Gu Shuyu several times and wanted to speak, but the current atmosphere did not allow her to speak, so she was so anxious that she couldn't sit still.

Gu Shuyu frowned, picked up the wine glass and blocked it in front of him, "Is there anything wrong?"

Old Qu was shocked, trembling, and shook his head and said, "It's okay, no."

Gu Shuyu's expression remained unchanged, and he only reminded: "No matter what happens today, I will hold it in my mind. Don't make trouble, otherwise you will regret it."

Although Gu Shuyu is a wife who is in charge of the strict management, he also has his own bottom line. In recent years, he has become less and less afraid of the old Qu family. He just wants to live his own life. If she wants to destroy everything he has worked hard, he will never let her go.

Old Qu's face changed, his face turned pale, and he looked at Gu Shuyu in horror, unable to believe that he would talk to her like this.

Although the relationship between the two has not been repeated in recent years, he still gave her a very good face outside, never scolded her, and did not say any threats, but today he...

Old Qu felt a little aggrieved, but he couldn't say a word, because Gu Shuyu said it was too late and she had already caused trouble.

Gu Shuyu noticed something strange and looked back at the old Qu. The old Qu did not dare to look at him and chose to ignore him.

Just when Gu Shuyu wanted to ask her what had happened, Empress Dowager Jin took advantage of the break from singing and dancing to speak.

"Gu An, how are your wife in good health? Didn't you come today?"

Gu An stood up and bowed to Empress Dowager Jin, "Return to the Empress Dowager, the emperor sent several imperial physicians to have excellent medical skills. The inner person is much better, but his body is still weaker, and he still needs to take care of him for a while, so he did not come to pay his respects to the Empress Dowager today. I hope the Empress Dowager will forgive him."

Queen Mother Jin smiled indifferently, "Defenselessness is all trivial matters. Health is important. It's the same when she gets healthy before entering the palace. But, Gu An, why did the Ai family hear that your daughter is not very honest? First, Guan Hou's mansion asked for a large sum of money, and then bullied her sisters with the identity given by the emperor. What's wrong? Why did I hear that she even interrupted Dingyuan Hou's hand? What's going on?"

After hearing this, Gu An almost lost his nose. What else did he not know? It must be the old Qu who sued them behind his back.

Another person who was about to be vomited blood was Gu Shuyu. He looked at Old Qu like a fool, thinking she was crazy.

No one refuted the Tang family before entering the palace? Do you think Gu An is a dead person? You should use a better way to ruin someone’s reputation! This is too low-level, you can know what’s going on without checking it. If Gu An tells everything about it, will the consequences be borne by their family?

The old Qu family is no longer afraid of Gu Shuyu. They looked at Gu An with excitement, and a flash of light flashed in their narrowed eyes.

Haha, no matter what you say, no one will testify to you. As long as I bite these things to death, you can only stare at me, and I will not believe it. You, Gu An, dare to break up with me at this time. A hat of unfiliality can suppress you. If you dare to tell the matter, the Hou Mansion will not be able to get rid of you, and you will not be able to escape.

Gu An, you have taken the blame.

Old Qu thought it was pretty good, but he didn't expect that some people did not follow her routine.

Gu An got up and walked to the center of the hall and knelt down, kowtowing heavily to Emperor Wen of Wei.

"I originally wanted to say nothing, but now I have to say it. Since the Empress Dowager has asked, please forgive me for speaking out."

After saying that, Gu An turned his head and kowtowed to Gu Shuyu and the old Qu family, "I am not filial to you, please forgive me for your sins."

Gu An ignored Gu Shuyu's entangled face and turned around and knelt down, lowered his head to start the procession.

"Since I returned to the Empress Dowager, I have always felt frightened since I entered the capital. I felt that the officials today were unable to bear the position, and I was really sorry for the emperor's kindness. Therefore, I was frightened every day, like walking on thin ice, and I had to think twice before doing anything. I would never speak much without speaking, and I would spend my hard work every day in the study. I rarely even go to the backyard. The only thing I hope is to be worthy of the emperor's trust, so I work diligently and dare not slacken.

I know that the capital is different from other places. There are many high-ranking officials and many aristocratic families. There may be a noble person in every ten people. Therefore, I will become more strict when teaching my children. I warn them to act carefully and hope not to cause trouble for the family.

Fortunately, my children are filial. Not only do I not blame the ministers for not letting them go out, I also strictly supervise my servants to prevent them from causing trouble for my family. Therefore, the things the Empress Dowager asked were all made out of nothing. No matter who told you, they would lie to you, and their hearts would be punished.

I admit that after my family returned to Beijing, I took 78,800 taels of silver from the Hou Mansion, but those silvers were monthly payments that I deserved for many years, and there was not an extra one tael. I have not received monthly payments since I was born. This is the first time I have obtained monthly payments. I left my home at a young age and stayed in the border for many years, but I have not seen any monthly payments in the mansion. I know that I am an adult, and the grain I have distributed in the army is enough for me to survive, so I have never asked for these money. I will forget about these money.

But I have married and had children. I have never seen the mansion send monthly silver in Changzhou and border areas for many years. Instead, my inner family will send my food back to the capital every year to show our filial piety.

I am not afraid of laughing at the emperor and the queen mother. I have been supported by my inner men over the years. My wife has never seen me even if she has a tattoo of silver, let alone for money?

After returning to the capital, our family was full of no patterns. The emperor kindly provided the dowry for his inner family. But it would be fine if I was still outside. I have returned home, how could I still spend my wife's dowry? Therefore, I proposed to the mansion to calculate the monthly money for the past few years to me.

Is there a lot of 78,800 taels of silver? I should know how much grain I handed back to the Hou Mansion every year, the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of War should know?

In addition, my daughter Gu Yan is cold by nature and rarely cares about people and things. As long as she doesn't blame her, she has always been lazy to deal with her. If she doesn't like her, she doesn't even say a word, so how can she talk about bullying her sisters? I'm afraid my daughter doesn't even remember their appearance clearly.

I know that Gu Yan's behavior is bold, and what she thinks is contrary to common sense, but I think what she said is right. Women are indeed not worse than men. Take me as an example. Without the insider and without her support, how could I be today? If Gu Yan's behavior and speech are too bold and everyone is looking down on me, it is also my teaching and has nothing to do with people.

I have always been proud of having a virtuous wife. It is a great blessing for me to get a wife, so I have never taken a concubine for many years. When my daughter saw me like this, she would think of her husband as well. Otherwise, how could she, a little girl, think of those?

I have never told the public about this, just because I think it is a family matter and no matter what the girl in the future, it has nothing to do with others. I also know that her behavior and speech have had a certain impact on others, so I punished her to be confined and would not release her until she was in the age of her hair."
