Chapter 55
Calm days are not always easy to come by.

On this day, the emperor made a big fuss again in the morning court.

The Marquis of Changsheng has never been forgiven by the Xue family, and Xue Yue still steals a book every day to accuse the Marquis of Changsheng of disturbing the people. The emperor tolerated it for half a month, and it is estimated that the time is almost up, so he finally broke out in the early morning court.

After coming down to court, Marquis Changsheng stuffed a large bag of silver with his servant, and asked him to help give a word to the young servant waiting outside the palace gate, then followed the emperor to the imperial study, knelt on the ground and howled in the dark.

However, it still did not hinder the emperor's determination to deprive the Marquis. Although the imperial decree had not yet been issued, everyone inside and outside the palace knew that the Changshenghou Mansion had come to an end.

From the beginning to the end, Concubine Sheng didn't even show her face. She used to communicate with Changshenghou's mansion very frequently, but in the past half month, the letters that Changshenghou sent to the harem seemed like muddy cows, and they didn't get any response.

Things have come to this point, no matter how stupid Chang Shenghou is, he also understands that his daughter is going to abandon them and only want to keep his own glory.

-

Changsheng Hou Mansion.

Today, Mrs. Changsheng Hou woke up, her eyelids kept twitching, as if something big was about to happen.

She didn't even have an appetite for breakfast, so she waited at the door of Hou's mansion, waiting for her husband to return.

However, he didn't wait for the Marquis of Changsheng, but he waited for Shenggu to go out.

Chu Chu asked him to go out of the city, and said there was something she wanted to tell him. For this reason, he dressed up specially.

Sheng Gu had a happy expression on his face, his hair was half tied up, and he was wearing an extremely gorgeous golden crown, which was inlaid with various gemstones and pearls, which was even more eye-catching in the sun.

He was wearing a moon-white gown with wide sleeves. The gown had the luster of satin. At a glance, he knew that the material was very good. He also embroidered large pieces of bamboo branches with silver silk thread, which added a bit of elegance.

Around his waist, there was a sachet of jade pendants hanging around. Before he got close, he smelled a scent of bamboo. Choking nose.

Sheng Gu walked briskly, before reaching the door, he saw Mrs. Chang Shenghou who was circling anxiously in front of the Hou Mansion, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute respectfully: "Mother."

When Madam Changshenghou saw his outfit, she immediately frowned in dissatisfaction: "What are you going to do with your outfit like this today?"

"My son is making an appointment with Miss Chu, and we are going to go out on the street." This is the first time Chuchu took the initiative to ask him out. Last night he was so excited that he didn't sleep all night. At this moment, there is still a faint blue and black color hanging around his eyes." Is mother here waiting for someone?"

When she heard that she had an appointment with Chu Chu, Mrs. Changsheng Hou's face softened a little.

She only saw Chu Chu once at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet.

Although the woman seemed to be out of her mind, since she was able to catch up with the county king, she must have something special.If such a woman passes through the door in the future, she can also become a help to their Changshenghoufu.

And she is stupid, so she can handle it well, and she will be able to play prestige in the future.

Mrs. Changsheng Hou nodded, and before she had time to speak, there was a voice of howling ghosts and wolves from far and near: "It's not good—it's not good—"

Mrs. Changsheng Hou heard the voice familiar, she turned her head quickly, and immediately recognized him as the servant next to Chang Shenghou, so she raised her eyebrows and shouted angrily: "What's going on, what's wrong with yelling!"

"Master Hou asked the villain to come back and report the letter, saying that madam should hurry into the palace to meet the empress!" The servant was out of breath, "Master Hou also said that maybe...it's today!"

"What?!" Mrs. Changsheng Hou's eyes widened.

Mrs. Changshenghou was the same as Changshenghou, both of them were fat, and the facial features were not clear because of the fleshy face. At this moment, she suddenly widened her eyes, looking at it with a sense of joy.

Seeing his mother so excited, Sheng Gu was a little confused.

Marquis Changsheng went to the front of Xue's mansion every day to get a job. Mrs. Marquis Changsheng knew about this, but Sheng Gu didn't.

Mrs. Changsheng Hou always felt that he was still young, and such things were disgraceful, so there was no need for him to know, so she never told him.

And Marquis Changsheng even left early and returned late, and the father and son didn't even see each other on weekdays, so until now, Sheng Gu didn't know what happened in the past half a month.

So in Sheng Gu's view, the emperor was about to take back his family's Marquis position without warning.

"Mother, don't worry! Your Majesty won't be so heartless," Sheng Gu thought he understood His Majesty, so he quickly held his mother's hand, and said in a firm tone, "Mother hastened to the palace to see the empress, and my son will go right away. Write a letter to my sister, please help me!"

After Sheng Gu finished speaking, he turned around and was about to go back to write a letter, but Madam Chang Shenghou subconsciously pulled her back.

Seeing that his mother's expression was not right, Sheng Gu was inexplicably flustered: "Mother?"

"...Half a month ago, His Majesty gave your father an ultimatum, asking him to ask for the forgiveness of the Xue family no matter what method he uses, to appease the Xue family, and to marry a daughter of the Xue family..." Mrs. Changsheng's expression was pale. Pale, she closed her eyes, as if venting, and finally said everything, "In the past half a month, your father went to Xue's house every day, but he couldn't even see Prime Minister Xue...

This time, I'm afraid it really won't work..."

Sheng Gu's face turned pale, and he took a step back unconsciously.

how so……

"As for your sister..." Mrs. Changsheng Hou closed her eyes and couldn't see Sheng Gu's expression, she continued, "In the past half month, I have written many letters to your sister, but...not a single reply. "

The last sentence was like a thunderbolt, which struck Sheng Gu's immature heart.

The situation is urgent and cannot be delayed.

After Madam Changsheng finished speaking, she calmed down for a while, then hurriedly asked someone to hitch a car and went to the palace.

She wasn't even sure if she could meet the queen smoothly, but for the sake of her position as Marquis, she had to try.

Sheng Gu just stood there blankly until Mrs. Chang Sheng Hou left.

How could this be?
His own elder sister is the imperial concubine of Daliang, the favorite of the six palaces.

Marquis Changsheng also vowed that as long as the imperial concubine is still there, his Marquis position will be stable, but...how can it be gone?
Could it be... because of the Xue family, Xue Shu?

Sheng Gu rolled his eyes dumbly, and his eyes fell on his robe.

That's right, Xue Shu is backed by the Zhenbeihou Mansion, if she hates because of love, if she doesn't get him, she will be destroyed, it is possible.

"Your Majesty?" Seeing his pale face and dull eyes, the concierge was afraid that he would not be able to hold on, so he cautiously came forward to call him.

"Heh..." Sheng Gu smiled wryly, "Daughter of the Xue family, in order to marry me, she even alarmed His Majesty...

It’s really infatuated to spend so much time and energy…”

concierge:"?"

Why can't he understand what his son is saying?
"Prepare the horse," Sheng Gu flicked his sleeves, as if preparing to die bravely, "Go to Xue's residence."

The concierge didn't dare to neglect, bent over, and trotted to get ready.

Sheng Gu got on his horse, and turned his head to look at the gate of Changshenghou's mansion.

"Father, mother, sister, you have paid too much for the position of Marquis," Sheng Gu sighed, his eyes were slightly red, "In the future, let me guard the position of Marquis of Changsheng."

After finishing speaking, Sheng Gu didn't stay any longer, whipped his horse, and went straight to Xue's mansion.
