My Stepmother is Soft and Charming

After listening to Wei Taiwei's words, the fourth prince looked up and down at Fu Yanhui opposite him.

It looked like he was indeed a capable person, so he said without thinking too much.

Okay, I heard from Lieutenant Wei that you are not very young. If you are loyal enough in the future, I, the prince, will have many military merits for you. Is this clear?

Thank you, Fourth Prince!

Fu Yanhui didn't talk much. He was very calm even after he was appointed as a sixth-grade captain of the Gyeonggi Division. Such behavior made Shang Qilang take a second look.

The path of a military general is easier. He has been working hard with the fourth prince for so long, and he is still not as high as Fu Yanhui, so he feels a little bitter in his heart.

But it only happened for a moment, and I was soon relieved.

After all, this is the end of Fu Yanhui's future, but he will become prime minister in the future, so he feels that thinking about this now is a bit too worrying.

Thinking of this, I stopped paying attention.

Little did they know that Fu Yanhui would turn out to be the one who could stir up big waves in the future, and even he would join in!

Not only do we have to arrange for the Master in the Gyeonggi Department, we also need to explain a lot to the concubines in the palace. Now His Majesty's body is getting worse and worse. I heard that the concubines in the harem have not been summoned for many days. If not there are still Meals are delivered every day, and I am afraid that the old ministers will doubt whether His Majesty is still alive!

When Wei Taiwei said this, he was actually overstepping his bounds.

But for everyone, especially the fourth prince, he was looking forward to this day coming soon. After all, if the emperor is not dead, no matter how hard he and the prince fight, it will be useless.

The dragon chair had to be vacant, so he expressed his stance immediately.

Tomorrow I will go to the palace to see my mother and concubine, and explain the situation clearly to her. Even if my father doesn't see us, he will not miss my mother and concubine.

The fourth prince did not lie in his words.

It would be perfect if Your Majesty could stay in the Imperial Concubine's palace all the time!

Shang Qilang added next to him, and soon everyone understood.

Who knows whether His Majesty the Emperor will have a present or a tomorrow? If he loses his temper in the Imperial Concubine's Palace, they might have a chance to mediate.

Seeing this, the fourth prince also nodded, but little did he know that they walked step by step into the urn that Queen Guo had set up for many years. They were the ones who wanted to catch them!

In the Changchun Palace, Queen Guo was extremely dull.

Naturally, she also knew the news of Mrs. Gu's death, so she was so heartbroken that she couldn't even shed tears.

Eunuch Hu and others who had taken care of her for many years were also worried, but they didn't know how to comfort her. Just when they were upset, they heard that the prince and Prime Minister Guo were coming. They were overjoyed and immediately invited them in.

My son, I have met my mother.

Old minister, I have met the Queen.

While the two were talking, Queen Guo came over and wanted to say something, but she felt uncomfortable in her heart. So before the words came out, she burst into tears.

Seeing this, the prince thought that his mother was sad because of the death of Mrs. Gu, but only Mr. Guo knew that it was also mixed with complicated emotions towards the uncle of the Gu family and those past events.

However, others didn't know, and they were determined not to let this matter leak out, so they said it very seriously.

My dear, please don't be too sad. If Mrs. Gu has a spirit in heaven, she will also be sad when she sees you like this.

Although the person in the words was Mrs. Gu, Queen Guo understood that there was someone else her father was talking about.

As a queen for many years, she had long been accustomed to hiding all her thoughts and emotions behind her back, so she didn't say much and asked after calming down.

Is there something wrong with my father and the prince entering the palace?

Then, the two of them nodded, but did not say anything. Seeing this, Eunuch Hu immediately waved his hands to the palace people waiting around him and said.

Everyone, go down.

yes.

And he is the queen's confidant, so naturally he doesn't have to leave.

After those people had left, Prime Minister Guo revealed his plan to send fifty thousand tiger and benign troops south. Although he did not point out the real meaning behind it, Queen Guo was not stupid either. She understood it in just a few words.

Jinling City, the place where she grew up, she always thought about how it would be if she could go back to the past, but she could only think about it.

Now that all her sustenance was gone, there was not much specialness about Jinling City to her, so after a moment of silence, she said to Guo Xiang.

Your Majesty has not been seen for several days. I may not be able to enter the palace. I'm afraid it will have to be postponed for a few days. Anyway, Shao Yu has gone and the funeral has to be dealt with first. Let's wait. There’s no rush for this moment!”

After hearing this, Prime Minister Guo felt a little strange.

The emperor was invisible and in poor health. No matter how he looked at him, he felt that something was wrong.

But Guo Xiang didn't see that the queen was worried or anxious at all. He was only sad for Mrs. Gu, and he originally thought that he would agree to it, so how could he say that he should take it slow? , could it be that she has other considerations?

Seeing this, he couldn't say much in front of the prince. He could only glance sideways at Eunuch Hu next to Queen Guo. Seeing that he also looked calm and composed, he understood that there must be something fishy that he was not aware of. .

So, he pretended to agree, and then said to the prince.

Mrs. Gu is a person of imperial edict and she is also the widow of Marshal Gu, so the court should also show some kind of expression. I think His Highness the Crown Prince can personally write an elegiac couplet and send it to you. This can also express your concern for me. Heart.

When the prince heard this, he felt it was very reasonable, so he left Changchun Palace.

When I left, I originally wanted to take my grandfather to the East Palace to sit and talk, but Guo Xiang said that he wanted to comfort the queen here.

Thinking of how his mother had mentioned Mrs. Gu's thoughts to him many times, he naturally knew how sad his mother was, so he left without thinking much.

After he left, Prime Minister Guo waved to Eunuch Hu. Seeing this, Eunuch Hu knew that even he couldn't listen to what Prime Minister Guo was going to say next, so he didn't delay and immediately left the door of the hall. .

It wasn't until only the father and daughter were left in the hall that Prime Minister Guo sighed and stepped forward to speak to Queen Guo.

Father, I understand the pain in your heart. There is no one around you at this moment, so you can cry if you want.

After hearing this, Queen Guo couldn't hold back her tears. Tears burst into her eyes and soon soaked a handkerchief.

Father, my godmother just left like this, leaving without a trace. The Gu family... no one from the Gu family knows about their daughter anymore...
