The first Hades

Chapter 30

"Why are you in such a panic? It's not like the sky is falling. Even if the sky is falling, there are still tall people holding it up. What are you in a hurry for?"

"Miss, just now the emperor sent someone to deliver the imperial decree to marry the young lady to His Highness Prince Jing, and the marriage will be completed in three days."

"What?" Gu Qingluan was completely stunned!Is this an imperial decree from heaven?Come so fast?Didn't it mean that we should wait until the choice of the prince is confirmed before marrying her to the prince?
In Master Xiang's study.

Gu Shiyuan, who was wearing a blue robe, was sitting upright with his feet straight and sternly posing, his tiger eyes were slightly angry.

Sitting next to Gu Shiyuan were his eldest wife Lin Guifang, second wife Cui Baozhu, eldest lady Gu Qingfeng, and second lady Gu Qingyan.

Gu Qingluan walked into the study and looked at the situation, thinking that besides the emperor's imperial decree, he might have committed some serious family rules.

She silently walked in front of everyone, and when she was thinking about how to explain, the eldest lady Lin Guifang said in a gentle and benevolent voice: "Luan'er, sit down, your father has something to say."

A maid lifted a chair for Gu Qingluan to sit down.

Gu Qingluan obediently called Daddy, and after greeting the eldest lady, second wife, eldest lady and second lady one by one, she sat down slowly and put her hands on her knees pretending to be obedient.

She found that the expressions on everyone's faces were very strange, but the most special thing was that she felt that the eldest lady was happy; and the pair of almond eyes of the second lady, Gu Qingyan, seemed to be poisoned, and she did not hide her love for her at all. hostility.

Prime Minister Gu Shiyuan waited for her to sit down, and then solemnly announced: "Luan'er, Eunuch Li, who is next to the emperor, came to pass on the sage just now. The emperor has already married you to His Royal Highness King Jing. Three days later Get married."

"His Royal Highness Prince Jing? Didn't you say that you must first confirm who is the prince before you propose marriage to me?" Gu Qingluan wondered, feeling more like he had fallen to the bottom of the valley.

Gu Shiyuan simply explained: "The queen mother must eat fast and recite Buddhism seven days a month, and ignore world affairs. The queen asked the emperor to marry him, and the emperor approved it. Eunuch Li has read the imperial decree just now. Luaner, you will do it in these three days. Get ready to get married! You are not allowed to go out anywhere."

I see!She understood what Xiangpapapa meant.The empress took advantage of the empress dowager's seven-day fast, and begged the emperor to grant her son His Royal Highness King Jing?In this way, the candidate for the future heir apparent in the emperor's mind is His Royal Highness Prince Jing, not King Wei.

As for the struggle for power and profit in the palace, Gu Qingluan didn't know all the forces in the palace, but he became the first sacrifice.

Apart from his appearance, she has no impression of Long Xuanfu, His Royal Highness Prince Jing who shot her with an arrow, so she is going to marry him?
She was depressed and could not speak for a long time.

It took a long time before he struggled and said: "Daddy, must my daughter marry His Highness Prince Jing? My daughter is not willing! What my daughter likes is..." Gu Qingluan wanted to say that she liked Dongfang Ze.

However, rationality told her that if Dongfang Ze's name was brought out, it would be of no use other than angering the prime minister's father, and it might even harm Dongfang Ze.In ancient times, the imperial power was high, and the whole family was copied and beheaded to resist the decree. How could Xiangye's father not allow her not to marry?
Sure enough, she just protested softly, and the father on the right had a bit of anger on his face: "Luan'er, I heard that you went to the Bauhinia Pavilion in the Red Leaf Forest with the commander of the Dongfang guards today. The news spread Do you know that it will affect your reputation? You are the future princess, from now on, you must not get too close to any man. Remember! You are already the future Prince Jing."

After Xiangye's father finished speaking, the eldest lady Gu Qingfeng smiled and congratulated her coquettishly: "Congratulations to the third sister! Congratulations to the third sister who was married to His Royal Highness Prince Jing. She is the future Princess Jing with a good name." The reason for the joy is that the third sister will not marry her beloved King Wei.

"Hmph!" Second Miss Gu Qingyan snorted coldly from her nose, her apricot eyes seemed to be spitting fire and devouring blood, the reason was that she had always liked His Highness Prince Jing.

Is she the future Princess Jing? !The marital happiness of her life is so up to her?Can she slap the table and lift the tiles to object?

Surprised, angry and helpless, Gu Qingluan heard Mrs. Lin's very dignified and gentle way quietly: "This child has always been pitiful, and now he is finally cured suddenly, so how could he do anything deviant? Master, don't say it too seriously. No, nothing scared Luan'er again."

"That's good!" Gu Shiyuan snorted coldly, and asked the eldest lady with thick eyebrows and cold eyes, "Then she went out alone today without even bringing a maid, whose fault is it?"

The eldest lady bowed, and replied softly: "That's my negligence. Luan'er was seriously ill at the beginning of Yu, and I should have sent two maids and mother-in-law to take care of her. Now that the imperial decree has been issued, it is even more negligent. No. The concubine will definitely let Luaner prepare well for these three days, and no mistakes will be allowed."

Gu Shiyuan's face was slightly calm: "Since Madam said so, I will leave the matters of Luan'er's marriage to Madam to take care of it. Madam has always loved Luan'er very much, so I think she will take care of all the marriage matters properly. .”

The eldest lady hurriedly bowed her head and bowed her eyebrows: "Thank you for your trust, master! Please rest assured, master, everything will be left to the concubine."

The second wife, Cui Baozhu, was secretly jealous, but she didn't dare to show it. She just said in a pretentious way: "It stands to reason, which one of the things that my sister handles is not appropriate? But my sister's body has just recovered from illness. Why don't you hand over some of the labor to your younger sister? Let her share some of it, otherwise she will be overworked. My younger sister is also a member of the family, but she is always idle. She only eats and does nothing, and the younger sister enjoys too much Already!"

As Cui Baozhu said, he turned to Xiangye and said with a drawl, "Master—"

Gu Shiyuan frowned deeply. He has always left the affairs of the prime minister's house to his wife Lin Guifang. As for Cui Baozhu, he is greedy for her beauty, but he doesn't think she has the ability to manage money and housework, and even treats her a little lightly. despicable meaning.

However, his wife Lin Guifang has been feeling unwell recently and her complexion is pale, which is also true.So, he thought for a while and said: "Since you have the heart, Fang'er, you can send some things to Zhu'er to share."

"Yes, master. The concubine will follow the master's orders." The eldest lady speaks in a decent manner and advances and retreats appropriately.

Cui Baozhu was just used to wanting to win, but she hadn't been able to win it for so many years. Now the master agreed lightly and skillfully, and she was shivering with joy secretly.

Gu Qingluan didn't pay much attention to the fight for power between the eldest lady and the second lady, and her ears were ringing because of the news that she was going to marry the third prince, Long Xuanfu, in three days. up.

When Gu Qingluan returned to his room, there were several old slaves and maids inside and outside the door.

On the surface, they came to serve her, but in reality they were watching over her.

Like a bird in a cage, the feeling of being locked in a golden cage made Gu Qingluan feel terrible!She ran away in her boudoir, going back and forth, thinking, can she still get away?
While thinking hard, there was a coquettish shout from outside the door: "Go away!" Then the voices of the maids replied in fear: "Yes."

Following that coquettish scolding, the second lady, Gu Qingyan, with upside-down willow eyebrows, pointed face, slender figure, dressed in emerald green clothes and full of pearls and jewels, came in.

After she came in, her pretty face, which was originally angry, quickly put on a fake smile, and she called out in a pretentious way: "Third sister——"

"What's the matter?" From the mouth of the maid, Gu Qingluan knew that Gu Qingyan's conduct was a bit bad, and she used to secretly bully the mentally handicapped Gu Qingluan.

Gu Qingyan hated from the bottom of her heart that she had a crazy and silly third sister, Gu Qingluan, which made people outside sometimes laugh at her for having a silly younger sister.Now that she has become normal, she suddenly became Concubine Jing and stole her favor, which made her hate it even more.

She laughed so fake that she suddenly didn't bother laughing at all, and asked coldly, "Third sister, don't you like Dongfang Ze? Are you going to go to Huaqiao obediently in three days?"

"What else? Resist the decree? Escape from marriage? Or cry, make trouble, and hang yourself? Is it useful? Or... Second sister has any magical tricks that can help me avoid this disaster?" Gu Qingluan asked lukewarmly .The person who was still in the room just now sat down and drank tea leisurely.

Gu Qingyan endured that her beautiful eyes were about to burst into flames!Does this dead girl actually regard marrying His Highness Prince Jing as a catastrophe?Does she know how many girls in the world want to marry His Highness Prince Jing?She thought about it day and night, almost going crazy.

Suppressing the fire in her heart and the smoke above her head, Gu Qingyan piled up a fake smile again and said: "Don't say that the second sister doesn't love the third sister. If the third sister really doesn't want to marry His Highness Prince Jing, the second sister has a trick here." , it depends on whether the third sister is willing or not."

Gu Qingyan just came here to give it a try, but she was actually thinking in her heart, would she really not want to marry His Highness Prince Jing?Isn't it already normal?It's not a case of madness. How can there be a woman in this world who doesn't want to marry His Highness Prince Jing?Could it be that she is really crazy and stupid?

Gu Qingluan didn't even lift her eyelids, she just took a sip of tea and asked: "Second Sister, what's the trick, why don't you tell me."

A calculating light flashed in Gu Qingyan's beautiful eyes, she bent down and brought her small mouth to Gu Qingluan's ear, and said in a low voice: "Right now, the ladies and maids sent by Da Furen are guarding outside, if you want to go out Ah, it's really difficult. However, your second sister is free to come and go, come and go as she wants."

"Ok?"

"I don't understand? The second sister means that it is too easy for you to go out as long as you pretend to be me. And I can stay instead of you."

"This is indeed a good plan! The second sister is really smart! After going out? What should I do? What should you do?" Gu Qingluan asked pretending to be a fool.

Didn't Gu Qingyan want Li Daitao to be stiff?This will work?Although she is a newcomer, she doesn't want to cause dozens of members of the Gu family to be executed.

Gu Qingyan continued: "Don't you understand? After you go out, of course you are looking for Dongfang Ze! I have a pack of medicine here, you just..." She stuffed a pack of medicine into Gu Qingluan's hand, A word was spoken in Gu Qingluan's ear.

"Uh! What a poisonous trick! It's wonderful! What about you? How will you deal with it in three days?" Does Gu Qingyan really think her a fool?Let her drug Dongfangze and take the opportunity to cook cooked rice with Dongfangze?Such a despicable and shameless thing, if you think about it, is it still human?What's more, now that the emperor's imperial decree has been issued, she doesn't want to tire Dongfang Ze's head.

"Well, Second Sister has her own way to deal with it, so you can rest assured! For the happiness of Third Sister, even if Second Sister is punished by Daddy, she is still willing."

What a willing one for her!Some people say it better than they sing.However, there are still three days before the big wedding, since someone is willing to take her place in the golden cage and stay bored, why wouldn't she be happy to do so, and take the opportunity to go out for some air?
