Chapter 3 Talk

Gu Boli sent his eldest son away, but he went to see his mother. He knew that what happened in the mourning hall today could not be concealed by his mother, not to mention that he had something to say to his mother.

After Gu Boli went in, he looked at his mother sitting under the candlelight, obviously waiting for him.

"Mother." Gu Boli walked over and said, he was never the kind of person who talked a lot.

"Well, you are here, I have left you a vegetarian noodles and you can eat some." In just five or six days, my son was much haggard, although he was still dressed neatly.

She is not used to expressing her feelings, but after all, she is also a mother, so she will not lose any concern for her son.

Gu Boli nodded and ate all the vegetarian noodles. After eating, his stomach felt much more comfortable. He had never eaten much this day.

After waiting for her son to eat noodles, the eldest princess said, "I know the matter of the mourning hall. What are you going to do with the Lu family? I don't want such a daughter-in-law!"

Gu Boli said lightly: "If she is willing to marry in, let her come in. We have the final say after entering. How can she live well if Awan is gone!" The best way for her to live in is to marry in. To put it bluntly, it is because of the girl from the Lu family. Otherwise, how could Concubine Lu attack his wife?

However, Concubine Lu has been really arrogant enough over the years. He did not expect that his wife was poisoned. It was too late to find out, so all he could do was avenge his wife.

But this will ruin the rest of her son's life? The eldest princess doesn't want to see it, but the firmness and coldness in her son's eyes made her realize that her son probably had an idea in her heart, and such an idea would obviously not change easily.

The eldest princess sighed and said, "Even if this is the case, things have to take things slowly. I am worried that Ah Wei's child has been born for five or six days, and is still like a kitten. Doctor Ye is here again today, but it's still hard to say."

Thinking of his youngest daughter, Gu Boli felt a little sad. The child was wronged. Gu Boli said, "Only Doctor Ye knows more about the people in the Poison Imperial Hospital, but it does not mean that no other doctors except the Imperial Hospital know. I'll see, why don't you let someone look for it."

The eldest princess nodded: "I think so too. The child has been born with great effort. How can she let her go?" The eldest princess couldn't say what happened later, and she was unwilling to face such a result.

Gu Boli was silent. He was actually extremely uncomfortable these days, and he felt frustrated and angry. Therefore, he wanted to let Concubine Lu and the Lu family involved in the palace be torn to pieces. However, now all he could do was tolerate, and even if he did, he would do it secretly.

After all, he is not only Awan's husband, the father of the child, but also Zhennan Hou, the patriarch of the entire Gu family, so this means that he cannot do anything randomly.

Gu Boli said, "Awei has to bother his mother to take care of him." He is a big man. Even if he feels sorry for his daughter, he doesn't know how to do the details, so he can only be his mother.

The eldest princess waved her hand: "There is nothing, the child is a miserable life after all. Speaking of which, although Awan's death was caused by Concubine Lu, there were other people involved in it, and the purpose was to Zhennan Hou Mansion and the Wen family."

Gu Boli clenched his hand tightly. He was not stupid. If he was just Concubine Lu, he would not be able to do such a thing. After all, she offended the Zhennan Marquis Mansion like this. In recent years, the Zhennan Marquis Mansion has been honored and favored. Not only because of the eldest princess, but also because the Zhennan Marquis Mansion has such qualifications and confidence, Concubine Lu would not have acted so blatantly.

So it is probably because someone deliberately gave Concubine Lu such confidence that Concubine Lu was so arrogant and even had no intention of concealing it.

Gu Boli said: "My son is investigating the matter inside, and he will almost have an answer." These days, from outsiders, he was not in the mood to pay attention to other things because his wife passed away, so he started to clean up the traces, but those people must not know that his secretly manpower is waiting for them to clean up the traces!

The eldest princess sighed, "After all, my son is much smarter than the dead husband, and fortunately this is the case."

The eldest princess tapped the table casually with her fingers: "I heard that the Lu family's legitimate branches have entered Beijing. I think that Concubine Lu was just a concubine who was not valued by the Lu family. Although she had a good face, the Lu family did not pay much attention to it. But this daughter confused the emperor with her face. She has been honored and favored for more than ten years. The Lu family was still a little disdainful in the past two years, but now she plans to start to win over!"

Gu Boli is not surprised at all: "The Cui family in the Qinghe, the Xie family in Chenzhou, and the Wen family in Suzhou now play an important role in the court, but the Lu family is getting worse and worse. They should be anxious, so they don't care about their former prejudice, which is normal." After all, people are pursuing interests.

Cui Xiewenlu, the four major families, is extremely famous in history and has continued to this day and is extremely prosperous.

The eldest princess curled her lips: "It's also a rush to seek medical treatment. Relying on women's love is not a long-term thing. Moreover, Concubine Lu has no son and only has two daughters. Speaking of which, it's time for her to give birth this time."

He always asked people to pay attention to the movements of Concubine Lu in the palace, so he naturally knew it. He nodded after hearing this: "It should be these few days."

Gu Boli came out of the eldest princess's mansion to the Marquis' Mansion. At the beginning, the late emperor loved the eldest princess very much, so he said that the eldest princess married the Zhennan Marquis at that time and built the Princess' Mansion next to the Zhennan Marquis' Mansion. The eldest princess and the old Zhennan Marquis lived in the Marquis' Mansion when they were loving. Later, the old Zhennan Marquis had other women and gave birth to a child. After the eldest princess moved to the Princess' Mansion and ignored her husband again. Speaking of which, the eldest princess always had a tough personality.

Gu Boli first went to Gu Chen's place. He knew that Gu Chen was asleep, so he felt relieved. Then he turned around to the mourning hall where his wife was. They all said that the soul of the dead would not leave the house forty-nine days. His Awan had always been afraid of the darkness, so he wanted to accompany her.

Gu Boli lit incense: "Awan, can you hear it? If you can hear it, please bless our Awei to grow up healthily."

The next day, when the two wives of Zhennan Hou Mansion came to pay their respects, Mingyu had not yet woken up, and she now slept for a long time every day.

At the beginning, the eldest princess fell in love with the old Zhen Nanhou and married him. At the beginning, she was also beautiful, but later, the old Zhen Nanhou came back from the war in Fujian and brought back a woman and a child. The old Zhen Nanhou, who has always been clear-headed, said that he and the woman were truly in love, and hoped that the eldest princess could help him and make the woman a fair wife.

When the eldest princess was in the palace, she said that she could not tolerate sand in her eyes. Because she had always been happy with the emperor's favor, she naturally couldn't stand her husband's betrayal, so she immediately went to the palace to find the emperor to make the decision.

Since ancient times, how could the princess have other women besides the princess? Not to mention a fair wife, even a concubine or a wife, so the old Zhennan Hou’s approach was to touch the emperor’s bottom line. What was the result of touching the bottom line? Zhennan Hou had made contributions after all, so he escaped a disaster, but the woman did not have such a good fate. She immediately lost her life, but the woman’s child was left behind.

Perhaps the two of them are indeed in true love. The Marquis of Zhennan was lingering in their sick bed shortly after the woman died and left soon. At that time, the eldest princess was only twenty-six years old, and Marquis of Zhennan was only nine years old.

But the eldest princess held on.

The eldest princess has two sons, one is Zhennan Hou and the other is the second master. Zhennan Hou Congwu, but the second master chose the path of imperial examinations and has now passed the Jinshi and is in the Hanlin Academy.

The second wife, Zhou, is the legitimate daughter of the second wife of Chengyi Bo Mansion. After marrying her, she has given birth to two daughters, namely the five-year-old girl Gu Mingyan and the two-year-old girl Gu Mingchan.

The third master is the child born to the woman. At that time, the eldest princess just thought that the child would save the child's life innocently. She has been lukewarm all these years. The third master herself is honest and dull. She dares not breathe heavily in front of the eldest princess. Now she is eighteen years old, but she has accomplished nothing. The third wife Jiao comes from the Jiao family in Shenyang. The Jiao family in Shenyang is not as good as the four major families, but she is also a second-rate family, but this third wife is the output girl of the Jiao family.

The third wife has a son and a daughter, two-year-old fifth master Gu Shi and eight-month-old fifth girl Gu Ming'e.

The eldest princess was not very patient and came to pay her respects, so she just asked her two daughters-in-law to come every month on five and ten.

Today is the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month.

Since Wen Qiuwan got pregnant, the housekeeper's affairs have been in the hands of the second wife. Now, the second wife is still in charge. As Wen Qiuwan dies at the end of the year, there are naturally many things to do. Today, the second wife also wants to come over to ask the princess for some matters.

The second wife has always been a relatively safe person. When she gets married, she will inevitably feel that she is not confident enough, so she is more thoughtful in doing things.

The second wife smiled and said, "The New Year is coming soon, and there are some things that my mother needs to tell you."

The eldest princess suddenly realized that it was the end of the year. There were too many things to do in this year, so the eldest princess just said: "According to the examples of previous years, you can reduce it by 20%. How to do the books and managers in previous years know about them."

The first princess was most satisfied with the second wife. The second wife had always understood very well, so the housekeeper had not changed the important management of the housekeeper for a year, but had arranged some of her own people in some other places, and any of the housekeeper's women could do it.

The second wife also understood that the eldest uncle is capable, even Gu Chen is smart at a young age, so he will not be able to get the title of the second wife in the future. Why should he take advantage of the butler to do too many small moves?
