Gluttonous Crown Princess - Chapter 116

Half an hour later, the dishes on the long mahogany table were wiped out, especially the dishes sent by Tao Ti, which were all eaten up.

Gu Zhihong leaned back in the chair and lazily touched his stomach and burped, “It’s so delicious, my stomach is about to burst.”

Fu Xirui said to her heart: Almost two-thirds of the braised pork with chestnuts has entered your stomach, can you not support it, Mr. Lang?

Fu Xirui opened another food box containing desserts and took out several snacks from it. “The crown princess said, if you have a long meal, drinking a bowl of hawthorn soup will relieve your greasiness and digestion.”

“My cousin is really thoughtful.” Gu Zhihong took a sip of the hawthorn soup, feeling a lot more comfortable in his stomach.

When Gu Qu saw him stubbornly sitting and not sitting, he scolded with a calm face, “Sit down, as if there are no bones in your whole body, like something.”

Gu Zhihong smiled bitterly, and the mouse sat up straight after seeing a cat.

Pei Yan said indifferently, “Uncle doesn’t have to be so restrained by Ah Hong, he is his own family, so it’s okay to relax.”

Gu Channel, “Your Highness, you don’t know how stubborn he is. His grandmother and mother have spoiled him. If I don’t care about it, this **** is going to turn the sky.”

After a pause, he squinted to Gu Zhihong solemnly, “Chang’an is no better than a sandbar. You can be a monkey there, and you have to behave well here. On the way here, what I said to you, you can I remember it all.”

Gu Zhi Hong Ling’er responded, “Yes, my son knows. After entering Chang’an, we have to be cautious in our words and deeds. We must not cause trouble to the Donggong. We have to help Donggong with all our strength…”

He listened to these words over and over again, and his ears became calluses.

Gu Qu got angry when he saw him like this, and asked him to roll to the side hall without getting in front of him.

Gu Zhihong didn’t want to continue to listen to the old father’s lesson. He carried the hawthorn soup, and also took a bowl of sweet-scented osmanthus sugar steamed new chestnut powder cake, and left happily.

“Loving mothers are more defeated.” Gu Qu shook his head and sighed, then turned to look at Pei Yan, his original serious expression softened a lot.

Without others, the uncle and nephew who had not seen each other for many years can finally let go of the conversation.

After talking about the recent situation, Gu Qu asked about the arrangements for the political situation of the DPRK, and Pei Yan briefly stated his plan.

Gu Qu rubbed the wall of the cup and muttered, “Since the Zhou family has already felt panic, we might as well add another fire to make them jump over the wall in a hurry.”

“Uncle, you just returned to Chang’an, are you a little haste?”

Gu Qu shook his head, “Don’t be anxious. In the past sixteen years, I have always wanted to knock down Zhou’s family, in order to avenge my revenge.”

Pei Yan lowered his eyes, after a moment, and asked, “What’s the plan of the uncle?”

Gu Qu unreservedly stated his thoughts. He has been planning for so many years, and he knows the insidious cunning of the Zhou family. The longer it is, the more difficult it will be for the Zhou family to deal with it. It would be better to cut the mess with a sharp knife while Zhou’s family was taking it lightly.

Unconsciously, half an hour passed, the teapot on the table was empty.

Gu Qu suddenly remembered something, “His Royal Highness, after the incident, how do you plan to deal with the Palace of Yongwei and how to arrange the princess?”

In these two months of letters, the nephew occasionally mentioned the princess, although only a few sentences, it is enough to see the status of the princess in the heart of the nephew.

Even the unsmiling Gu Feng Su Rili praised the princess.

It is a pity that Yong Weihou is a shallow-eyed idiot. He chose to stand on the side of the third prince and the Zhou family, and had to be the enemy of Donggong.

Pei Yan’s deep eyes are very firm, her thin lips lightly open, “She is the lonely princess and the only wife.”

Hearing this, Gu Qu’s eyes moved slightly, “That Yongweihou Mansion…”

“The Zhang family has reconciled with Yong Weihou.”

“I’ve heard about this when I returned to Chang’an.” Gu Qu squinted and thought of the little girl who loved to wear red clothes and flamboyantly.

Years ago, Susu, Yueniang, and… Yuanyuan, these three little girls with different personalities always love to get together, admire flowers, drink tea, throw pots and fight grass, carefree, as if they have brought together everything in the world. Of happiness and beauty.

When they see him, they will call his brother sweetly.

Later, when Yuanyuan entered the palace, Yueniang married someone. Susu kept dragging her until she was almost 20 years old and became an old girl. Only then did she reluctantly agree to Tao Bosong’s pursuit and marry into the Yongweihoufu.

In order to marry Susu, Tao Bosong tried his best and stalked and vowed to treat her wholeheartedly.

I never imagined that people’s hearts are changeable, the first likes gradually fade away over time, and in the end only resentment is left.

Fortunately, the vigor in Susu’s bones hasn’t faded, and now that he is leaving, he can be considered to get out of the mud in time.

Seeing Gu Qu in a daze, Pei Yan reminded him softly, “Uncle?”

Gu Qu came back to his senses and said ashamed, “I just recalled some old events. You also know that Zhang and your mother and queen are good friends in your boudoir… Now that she is separated, you have to respect her more, don’t do this. Underestimate her.”

Pei Yan said, “This is natural. It’s time to stop, and to face the chaos, Zhang’s and Li’s actions, Gu admires it very much.”

Gu Qu relaxed and said, “Aside from the Zhang family, Yong Weihou is the biological father of the princess. If you kill him, you and the princess will not have a grudge.”

“Uncle rest assured, Ati has a clear sense of reason and can handle it well.” Pei Yan paused, and said lightly, “Besides, loneliness doesn’t have to kill him.”

He had no reason to kill Tao Bosong, as long as the Hou Mansion collapsed and the Zhou family fell, Tao Bosong would be an insignificant humble ant.

For the sake of a bit of blood, Pei Yan can keep him alive.

If Tao Bosong doesn’t know what is good or bad, Pei Yan can make him “unexpectedly dying” anytime and anywhere in jail and on the way to exile.

Seeing that Pei Yan had planned long ago, Gu Qu was relieved, raised his hand and patted his shoulder, “Since you have a princess in your heart, you have to think about her for everything that involves her, and don’t hurt you. The love between each other.”

He didn’t have any deep meaning in his words, Pei Yan’s lips pressed slightly, and he hummed.

At dusk, the Gu family left the palace.

When Gu Zhihong saw his sister, he couldn’t wait to show off, “Sister, do you know how delicious the prince concubine’s cousin cooks! Wow, I really can’t walk today!”

Gu Minglan looks at him like fools, “I went to the Prince’s Palace with my grandmother, mother and others. Wouldn’t I know that the dishes she cooked are delicious? Look at you for this boring energy, noisy and yelling, and I haven’t eaten it for eight lifetimes. It’s like a thing, don’t say it’s my brother when you go out, it’s a shame!”

Gu Zhihong let out a cry.

Seeing their brother and sister quarrel again, Bai nodded Gu Minglan’s forehead, “You, you, I am ashamed to say that your brother, today’s pot of river prawn and chicken wings, you did not eat less, the chicken bones and shrimp shells on the plate are all The pile is so high.”

She also gestured with two fingers.

Gu Zhihong burst into laughter, learning the tone of Gu Minglan just now, squinting his eyes and saying, “As if you haven’t eaten anything in eight lifetimes, don’t say it’s my sister when you go out, it’s a shame!”

Gu Minglan was embarrassed and squeezed her fist to beat Gu Zhihong. Gu Zhihong hugged her head and screamed.

Bai sighed helplessly, did these children really come out of her belly? No matter how temperamental, no one resembles her.

After much trouble, the two of them disappeared. Gu Zhihong asked, “Sister, what does the cousin look like, do you think?”

Bai taught him, “Rude.”

Gu Zhihong curled his lips, “I’m curious, after all, the prince cousin looks like a fairy. If his prince princess doesn’t look as good as him, wouldn’t the cousin suffer.”

Gu Minglan said, “Although the prince is not as good-looking as the prince, she is also a beauty with bright eyes and white teeth.”

Gu Zhihong “oh oh” twice, then switched the topic back to eating, “Sister, which dish do you think is the best for lunch? I like the chestnut braised pork the most. The meat is called a fragrant, even fat and thin. , Savory and delicious, with endless aftertaste. If you can eat that braised pork every day, you won’t make it for a god.”

“Hey, eat every day, it’s so beautiful for you.”

Speaking of this, Gu Minglan took out an exquisite and shiny VIP card from her arms and couldn’t help showing off, “You can’t eat braised pork every day, but I can drink milk tea every day.”

Gu Zhihong also heard the name of the milk tea, and hurriedly asked where the card came from.

Gu Minglan explained, Gu Zhihong was also shocked, “I didn’t expect my cousin to be so powerful!”

The two sisters and brothers here happily discussed taking the VIP card to the Gourmet Pavilion to buy milk tea early tomorrow morning. On the other carriage, Gu Qu and Mrs. Gu talked about Pei Yan, with a lot of emotion.

“His Royal Highness still looks very much like Yuanyuan, but his temperament… his temperament is still more like the emperor.”

“This child is not easy. The little man grows up to this age alone in the palace. If he didn’t have a strong temper, he would have been eaten to the point that he had no bones left.”

Mrs. Gu sighed, her loose eyelids drooped and her voice was old, “But I think the daughter-in-law chosen by your sister is very good. I thought she would be as simple as she was when she was young, like a little pepper. I never thought that she is a gentle, delicate, considerate and sensible child, and I think she has a lot of memory for Yan’er in her words, which is really good.”

Gu Qu echoed a few sentences and sighed, “I only hope that Yan’er will not be paranoid like his father…”

When Mrs. Gu thought about what Emperor Zhaokang had done back then, she squeezed the beeswax beads in her hand, her anger still couldn’t be calmed down!

At night, with a faint fragrance lingering in the drapery, Tao Ti leaned against Pei Yan’s arms and talked about the Gu family.

“The grandmother is very kind, the aunt is very gentle, and the cousin Gu’s cousin has a good temper. They are all kind.” Tao Ti asked with his ear to his chest, “His Royal Highness, what are the personalities of the uncle and the cousin?”

Pei Yan put his hand on her waist and closed his eyes, “Uncle’s face is cold and warm, and my cousin is a jumpy man. He is a bit wild, but his heart is pure. Next time I have a chance, I will take you to Gu Mansion. So that you can see.”

Tao Ti said good, hesitated for a moment, and couldn’t help but ask, “His Royal Highness, back then…Did the Gu family really rebelled back then?”

The reason why Gu’s family was demoted to the Northland was that they had hidden weapons privately and intended to rebel.

Rebellion is a serious crime of ransacking the family. Emperor Zhaokang thought of Queen Gu, so he did not copy the house and beheaded, but banished the Gu family into exile.

Tao Ti didn’t think much about it before, but today I saw the Gu family’s daughters treat people and things politely, especially Mrs. Gu’s unobtrusive, indifferent and generous temperament, it is really difficult to get hooked with the rebellion.

In the darkness, Pei Yan slowly opened his eyes, and said coldly, “It’s not a rebellion, it’s… the killing of the king.”

Tao Ti, “???”

Pei Yan’s voice was low and slow, “The queen died of illness, and the Gu family was also in great grief. My uncle had a grudge in his heart and had a dispute with the emperor, and the weapon stabbed the emperor in the chest…”

Tao Ti, “!!!”

“The father wanted to suppress this matter, but the matter was passed on. The remonstrators of Yushitai knelt in the Taiji Palace and asked the father to convict Gu’s family. Not long after that, my grandfather left a suicide note and blamed himself for his son. Lacking strictness, apologize with death. As the rule of the court and calm the emotions of courtiers, the father finally exiled the Gu family…”

Tao Ti was silent for a long time, not knowing how to answer the conversation.

I just feel that the Gu family is really miserable in this ancient time when the imperial power is supreme.

Pei Yan lowered her head and took a deep breath in her shoulders, and said softly, “Back then, the Zhou family was often behind the scenes. If it weren’t for the father and the emperor’s relationship with the mother, the Gu family…I’m afraid there would be no one.”

Tao Ti only felt that the past was like a cloud of fog, especially the relationship between Queen Gu and Emperor Zhaokang.

Everyone said that Emperor Zhaokang loved Queen Gu deeply, but is this really the case?

If it is deep love, why did Queen Gu choose to commit suicide by taking poison?

The curtain fell silent for a while.

After a long time, Tao Ti raised his head and gently kissed Pei Yan’s chin, “His Royal Highness, don’t think about the unhappy ones.”

She said softly, “I will always be with you.”

Pei Yan raised his hand and rubbed her hair, and kissed her face, “Well, go to sleep.”
