The decree sent by Emperor Wen of Wei quickly arrived at the Wu'an Hou Mansion. Everyone was stunned after hearing this. When they learned that the emperor was coming tomorrow, they were all excited again.

But Wu was not in the mood to be excited. It was indeed a good thing for the emperor to arrive, but with his arrival, what she had to do was doubled several times, and she could no longer do anything perfunctory.

The security work must be done well, the people who serve the emperor must be selected, the tea cups must be selected again, the snacks and meals in the kitchen must be arranged, and the tables and chairs must be moved to the warehouse. The bonsai flowers and plants must be selected as the most beautiful ones, and the place must be selected, so as not to get in the trouble tomorrow. It is best to set up a ceiling in the schoolyard tonight, so as not to let the emperor dry. The most important thing is that the house and courtyard must be cleaned again, and there must be no dust.

There were too many things one by one, and Wu didn't have time to sue the crime before leaving, so he hurriedly pulled his mother-in-law Yan to run away first.

The Wu'an Hou Mansion is different from the Dingyuan Hou Mansion. Gu Shuyu, Dingyuan Hou, guarding the Hou's position, refused to let go. Qu said that he gave the housekeeper's power to Yu and did not completely let go. Many of the officials in the Hou Mansion are hers, and they are still loyal to her.

Bao Jianhui, the old man from Wu'an Hou Mansion, passed the position of Hou to his eldest son in his early years, and focused on Mrs. Zhang's life, and did not care about anything else, and did not even go to court. He only reported when Emperor Wen of Wei needed him. The same was true for Mrs. Zhang. He handed the Hou's mansion to her a month after Yan entered the door, but he did not care about power at all, and threw it away completely without caring about everything. When Wu came to Wu, Yan also imitated Mrs. Zhang and threw it all over to Wu. He removed the housekeeper's power early, and wholeheartedly guarded his two grandsons to serve her husband, making him happy.

So the whole thing that happened to Wu was so busy that she had to pull Yan up again.

Everyone didn't care about the matter of Wu and Yan leaving first. Now, no matter whether they could look at it or not, the wife, who was very considerate, had thought deeply about what Gu Yan said, and was about to think about it carefully after returning home, how can she live in the future to be worthy of herself, and how should the little fairies in the family be handled appropriately.

Gu Yan got the result she wanted and didn't want to stay too much. She had to go home to deal with the unconscious at home. She couldn't blame her parents for her. She should bear the responsibility for what she did.

Gu Yan was leaving, and Yu didn't want to stay anymore. She wanted to go back early to discuss with the mansion how Gu Yan would handle what she did today.

Gu Rui glared at Gu Yan unwillingly, followed Yu's family outside Wu'an Hou Mansion, and followed Gu Yu and the other two behind her.

Shuxiang was pushing Gu Yan forward, but was stopped by the Censor's wife Wang.

Wang seemed to have made up his mind, with firmness in his eyes, bowed to Gu Yan, and said with gratitude: "Thank you, the words of the county lord Huairou finally made me wake up and let me know what life I had lived before. You are right, women are not weaker than men. Over the years, I have paid too much for this family, and it is time to enjoy my happiness. I already know what to do. Thank you, Huairou County Lord, for the reminder of the county lord, I will come to watch the ceremony in the battle tomorrow, and I will buy you to win, and support you with actions. I hope you can try your wishes and let all men in the world know that women are not weak, nor do they have to live with men."

After saying that, Wang said, without waiting for Gu Yan to reply, he bowed his body and raised his head and chest to leave Wu'an Hou Mansion.

Gu Yan looked at Wang's departure and suddenly thought that maybe everything she did today was right, maybe her remarks would bring a different end to the entire Wei Dynasty, and maybe one day women would have a place in this feudal society, no longer so weak, no longer so lacking in existence, and no longer live without dignity.

Perhaps her words today will change countless women and affect the stability of countless families, but she does not regret it. Instead of living without dignity, she would rather do her best to do her best. Even if there is no change, let the world know what she thinks. What she wants is a pair of people for life, and her husband must be the only one.

Gu Yan quickly left Wu'an Hou Mansion. Yu and Gu Rui and others had already left without waiting for her. Only Gu Zhehan was waiting in front of her carriage.

Gu Yan called out "Brother" and got Gu Zhehan's back as he snorted coldly and turned around and left.

Gu Yan had no choice but to let Shuxiang carry her into the carriage and follow Gu Zhehan back to Hou Mansion.

Half an hour later, the carriage arrived in front of the Wu'an Hou Mansion. Before Gu Yan got off the car, she heard the voice of Zhao's mother.

"Madam, the master and the lady are back."

Gu Yan frowned and raised the curtain to look out. She saw Tang sitting in a wheelchair, looking at the carriage with anxiety. She was obviously relieved when she saw that she had nothing to do, and then she frowned tightly.

Gu Yan got off the carriage, Shuxiang pushed her to Tang. Neither mother nor daughter spoke. After looking at each other for a moment, Tang was defeated.

"It's up to you, as long as you are happy. Although you're a little reckless, it's not bad. It's better than marrying a scumbag in the future."

The word scumbag was learned from Gu Yan a few days ago. Tang thought this word was very appropriate and showed the various bad attributes of men. This time it happened to be used.

Gu Yan was surprised and moved by being able to get the support of Tang.

Maybe this is family. They care about you all the time. They can do everything for you. They can support you unconditionally, and they can come and comfort you as soon as you are sad.

Gu Yan took a deep breath and showed a faint smile.

"Okay, I won't lose."

At least she has to find a way to get a draw. It is definitely not easy to win a normal competition, but she can have a different approach and may not lose if she does it well.

Gu Zhehan threw the reins to Chang Si, the servant who was with him, and walked up to Gu Yan and said, "When your father comes back, you have suffered, you have never thought about what consequences will this day's words have to you? You don't want your reputation?"

Gu Yan shook her head, "That's why we compete!"

Gu Zhehan glared at Gu Yan angrily, pushed Tang's wheelchair into the gate of the Hou Mansion.

At this time, Yu and Gu Rui and the other four had already arrived at Rong'an Hall to pay tribute to the old Qu family, reporting on the entire process of Gu Yan's shocking move in Wu'an Hou Mansion. After listening to Yu's reply, Old Qu threw the teacup in his hand in anger, and swept the teapot on the other side to the ground.

It’s one thing to hear outsiders say, but it’s another thing to hear what my family members say when they witnessed the whole process. The outsiders never say it clearly, not to mention that the words Mrs. Zhang said to Gu Yan were not heard from him. It was the first time that Old Qu heard it, so Old Qu became even more angry.

She had no disagreement with Mrs. Zhang, but she knew that Mrs. Zhang looked down on her. Similarly, she looked down on the rude bandit, thinking that she had defiled the market for noble girls in Beijing, just like an ugly duckling falling into a group of white swans, which completely tainted her eyes.

Old Qu wiped the water stains on his hands and gritted his teeth and said, "Let her come over to see me."

Yu did not dare to be negligent, so he immediately sent someone to call Gu Yan, and also winked Gu Rui and asked her to go back to her yard and not to get along here.

Gu Rui pretended not to see it, and tried to please her by Old Qu, and Yu turned around and left in anger.

Gu Rui didn't care, and stayed here wholeheartedly to serve Qu, waiting to see Gu Yan joke.

Gu Rui didn't leave, and Gu Yu and his concubines didn't dare to leave, and they didn't dare to approach Old Qu and snatch Gu Rui's favor and criticize her. They had to sit quietly aside and drink tea.

The one who ran to pass the message was Hongdou, the eldest maid in Yu's yard. When she arrived at Baifang Garden, Gu An had just returned. When she heard that Qu was looking for Gu Yan, she knew what was going on. She immediately got up and changed her clothes to prepare to go with her.

Hongdou didn't say anything. Anyway, she had already brought the words, so she was not interested in anyone who went with Gu Yan. As long as Gu Yan went, she would do it, so she turned around and reported to Yu.

After Gu An changed his clothes, Gu Yan and Tang were talking, and Gu Zhehan walked to Gu Yan and patted Gu Yan on the back.

"Don't worry, no matter what happens, your mother and I will stand by your side with you. At worst, my father is not a good official. Our family goes to Changzhou or borders. As long as we are together, it will be the same everywhere. You don't have to worry too much. With your father here, you just do what you want to do, and your father will take care of you if something happens."

Gu Yan's heart became hot, and she couldn't help but turn red. She closed her eyes, and when she opened it, she felt clear in her eyes.

"Dad don't worry, I know the competition. The old ministers in the court can't let go of their attitude and look down on women. No one will come on stage unless all the young talents are defeated by me. Even if they come on stage, I am not afraid, Gu Yan, is not easy to mess with.

They can't compare to me when shooting archery. I think that except for my brother, all the civil and military officials, I have never been convinced by anyone. I am the best at playing chess. I have already obtained the true teachings of the master. I am not worried at all. As for painting and calligraphy, I can have a different approach, and at least I won't lose. The remaining poems and couplets are easy to talk about. Although I have learned a little, it is not easy for them to win."

Haha, the essence of the five thousand years of culture is not as good as you ancient people? There were so many poems in the past life that I could win if I recite two of them. As for whether I was cheating, haha, this is not within her consideration. She has a big face and doesn’t care about those, so she can win.

Seeing that Gu Yan had already thought about what to do, Gu An stopped muttering her and pushed Tang out of the yard.

When Gu An and his family arrived in Rong'an Hall, Gu Shuyu had already changed his clothes and spoke to the five tribe elders in the capital. At the same time, he also knew what Qu's meaning was.

Gu An pushed Tang, Gu Zhehan pushed Gu Yan, and the family of four leisurely entered Rong'an Hall, causing the five clan elders and Gu Shuyu to look at them frequently.

"Second brother, you're late."

Gu Huai sat on the lower head of the old Qu family and did not move. He took a sip of tea and looked up at Gu An's family.

Gu An glanced at him and found that except for the third room, everyone in the Hou Mansion had arrived. Even the two illegitimate children from the fourth room had arrived. They were held in their arms and looked at them. In addition to the family of Hou Mansion, there were five elderly people. If Wei Yi's information was correct, these five people would be the five clan elders.

Gu An glanced quickly and smiled and apologized to the elders of his tribe, "I'm sorry, I've made several elders wait for a long time. Father and mother, I wonder what's wrong with you calling a little girl?"

Old Qu narrowed his eyes when he heard Gu An’s question, but did not make a sound, but looked at Gu Shuyu and asked him to make the decision.

Gu Shuyu and the five clan elders looked at each other and said majestic: "You know what Yan'er said today, and you should also understand that the family will not be careless. I discussed with several clan elders and decided to send Gu Yan to the Family Temple to the family temple for a restoration to repay her sins after tomorrow."

The emperor has become interested in tomorrow's competition, and it's not possible to compete, but the whole thing is not over. Dingyuan Hou Mansion must give the world an explanation. Handing over Gu Yan is the best way, but Gu An will not agree, and Dingyuan Hou Mansion cannot give up him, so he can only take a step back and send him to the ancestral temple.

Gu Shuyu thought very well, thinking that he had taken a step back, Gu An should be able to agree, but he didn't expect that Gu An would be more pampering his daughter than he thought.

"No, my sister can't send it to the ancestral temple. What did she do wrong and want to send it to the ancestral temple? Didn't she just tell the truth? If she told the truth, she would also send it to the ancestral temple, how many people in the world would have to send it in? Besides, Yan'er's status is different now, and even if she gives it to her, she has to ask the emperor whether she agrees."

Before Gu An could speak, Gu Zhehan exploded first, and then he responded to Gu Shuyu's words.

Gu Shuyu's words made Gu Zhehan completely deny it, and pointed out that Gu Yan's identity was different from the past. They were not what they wanted to deal with it. His hands were so angry that he trembled.

Gu Shuyu lived so old, except for several setbacks in the officialdom and was scolded by the emperor several times, no one dared to talk to him like this, let alone his descendants.

Gu Shuyu's beard was trembling with anger, and pointed at Gu Zhehan and asked Gu An, "This is your good son you raised. How dare you talk to me like this? Am I still your father? Or is it his grandfather? Does he still have some education?"

When Gu An heard Gu Zhehan speak, he knew it was not good, but it was too late to stop him. He could only wait for him to finish his words and was not afraid of his reaction. At this time, what else can I worry about?

Gu An smiled and glanced at Gu Zhehan. Gu Zhehan understood in an instant and immediately bowed to Gu Shuyu.

"Grandfather calms down, but grandson dares not, but what grandson says is nothing wrong. Yan'er's identity is different now, so I hope grandfather thinks twice."

Gu Shuyu was so angry that he fell down by Gu Zhehan, pointing at Gu Zhehan that he couldn't speak.

Gu An stepped forward and walked to Gu Shuyu to help him calm down, "Don't be angry, today..."

Before Gu An could finish his words, Gu Huai stepped forward and pushed Gu An's hand aside. With the old Qu family, he took Gu An's hand anxiously and continued to make anger for Gu Shuyu.

"Dad, don't worry. They have to do this today or not. If they don't handle such a big thing, it will be unfavorable to our waiting mansion!"

"Yes, Mr. Hou, don't worry, let's just talk about it carefully. I believe the second brother will understand your hard work. Yes? second brother?"

Old Qu had a anxious look on his face, but a gleam flashed in his eyes.

Gu Zhehan curled his lips, let Tang glar back with a glance, and took two steps back to Tang and Gu Yan, leaving the battlefield to Gu An.
