    After eating the banquet and sending off the guests, Gu Jiu and the others stayed in Houfu these days.

    Xie was worried, and had to exhort a few more words.

    Especially telling Gu Yue.

    "If you live in the Hou Mansion, you must abide by the rules of the Hou Mansion. Don't make a fuss about everything. If you are unsure about something, just ask your fourth sister or some of your elders."

    Gu Shan lowered her eyebrows and said pleasingly: "Don't worry, mother, I will abide by the rules, and I won't mess around."

    How could Xie's really rest assured.

    She turned around one step at a time, fearing that Gu Yue made an unforgivable mistake in the Hou Mansion and would offend everyone.

    The eldest wife, Zhang, persuaded, “Brothers and sisters, here are children and grandchildren. You can’t take care of your children for the rest of your life. You should let go when you should let go. Several children have reached the age of talking to each other. It’s useless to worry if you are still ignorant at this age."

    Xie's shut up and said nothing, she and Zhang have nothing to say about this matter.

    The eldest wife Zhang raised her eyebrows and smiled. Forget it, she didn't bother to talk nonsense.

    She called Gu Jun to her front, "Have fun in the Hou Mansion. If you don't understand, just ask your sisters."

    "I listen to my mother."

    The Xie family and Zhang family were sent away, and the girl from the Hou Mansion led Gu Jiu and them to settle down.

    Gu Jiu lives in the same courtyard with Gu Mei.

    "Sister Xiao Jiu, can you sleep with me at night? It just so happens that we can talk."

    "As long as Sister Mei doesn't dislike me sleeping noisily."

    Gu Jiu said with a smile.

    Gu Mei said: "I'm afraid you will dislike me for being noisy. The maids say that I do not sleep well."

    Gu Jiu laughed, "My sleeping face is not very good either."

    "That's a coincidence, we two happened to get together."

    As soon as Gu Jiu settled down, and wanted to ask Gu Mei what he had for pastime, a maid came in from outside.

    "Big girl, it's okay. The second girl is so sad that she is crying, please go and comfort her."

    Gu Mei's expression changed, "Does Sister Qi cry very hard?"

    The maid nodded again and again, "The second lady can't persuade me no matter what. Big girl, go and have a look."

    "I'm going now."

    "Sister Mei, I'll go with you." Gu Jiu said.

    Gu Mei nodded, "Sister Xiao Jiu comes with me."

    Gu Jiu followed Gu Mei to the courtyard where Gu Qi lived next door.

    Sure enough, as soon as entered the courtyard, heard Gu Qi crying.

    Gu Mei worried about Gu Qi, and walked into the room in two steps in three steps. Gu Jiu followed behind her.

    "Sister Qi, are you okay?"

    Gu Qi was lying on the bed and crying. Hearing the movement, she raised her head and glanced, and then started crying again.

    The second wife Wang sighed again and again, "Mei girl, you and Qi'er have a good relationship, please persuade her quickly."

    "Second aunt, what's wrong with sister Qi?" Gu Mei asked.

    The second wife Wang sighed, "It's not because Zhao Wangfu wants to marry Qi'er, and Qi'er doesn't want to."

    Wang's natal family, and Zhao's uncle, that is, Xue Guifei's natal Xue family, are not far away relatives.

    However, as the controversy over seizure intensified, the Wang family, Zhao Wangfu, and Xue family were left with only face.

    At this time, anyone who has the foresight will not take the initiative to join the controversy.

    You know, the one sitting on the dragon chair is not a merciful lord. Randomly ransack the family and annihilate the clan.

    It's better for everyone to stay on their own feet.

    But in this world, it's not that you want to keep yourself safe, others will allow you to keep yourself safe. Someone will force you to lower your bottom line again and again, and compromise again and again.

    This time, Zhao Wangfu went to Pingnanhoufu.

    It's not that Gu Qi doesn't love wealth, but wealth must also be enjoyed by life.

    She doesn't have anyone she likes, but she never thought about marrying Prince Wangfu.

    She cried because she felt wronged, not respected, and felt that she was hurt. In addition, she was a little bit resistant to marrying to the palace in her heart.

    The palace is very well-regulated. In addition to the princes and concubines in the palace, there is also a big Buddha in the palace.

    Gu Qi is scared when he thinks of marrying into the palace and having to endure this or that kind of pressure.

    What's more frightening is that if the seizure fails, Zhao Wangfu will definitely be liquidated.

    The more Gu Qi cried, the more afraid she became, and the more she cried, the more sad she became.

    She rushed to the second wife, Wang, and said, "Mother, can you figure out a way for me? I don't want to marry to the palace. You can find a family for me. Anyway, I don't want to marry to the palace."

    The second lady Wang sighed, "I'm not counting this matter."

    "What should I do? Does the mother bear the heart and watch her daughter marry to the cannibalistic place in the palace?"

    "Don't talk nonsense."

    "My daughter is not talking nonsense. The palace is really so good, why the noble families in the capital are not willing to marry their daughters to the palace."

    The second wife Wang didn't know how to persuade Gu Qi, but smiled bitterly.

    Gu Mei took out her handkerchief and wiped her tears for Gu Qi, "Sister Qi, don't cry in a hurry, you can think of ways. Old Hou Ye, old lady, my father and second uncle will try to find a way for you. No one will watch you marry to the palace."

    Gu Qi sobbed twice, "Thank you, eldest sister, for comfort. I am afraid it will not be so easy to refuse the marriage of Prince Zhao's Mansion."

    After speaking, Gu Qi cried again.

    Gu Jiu remained silent.

    The Zhao Wangfu wanted to marry Gu Qi, but it was to win over the Houfu and add a helping hand.

    Then, although Hou Mansion was on the side of the anti-prince, it did not mean that Hou Mansion was willing to be in-laws with Zhao Wangfu.

    If the Prince Zhao’s Mansion took a tough attitude, saying that you must marry if you marry, and you must marry if you don’t marry, then this matter will be serious.

    Conventional methods are simply impossible to dispel the idea of ​​Prince Zhao's marriage.

    Therefore, we can only use unconventional means to enter the palace and start from the harem.

    Through the harem cloud to influence the decision of the Zhao Wangfu.

    Gu Jiu asked in a low voice, "Is there anyone in the palace in the Hou Mansion?"

    The second wife Wang shook her head slightly, "It used to be someone, but since that person passed away, now our Hou Mansion has nothing to say in the harem."

    "Maybe there is another way."

    Gu Jiu said softly.

    Gu Qi suddenly sat up from the bed, "Sister Xiao Jiu, do you have a way?"

    Everyone looked at Gu Jiu.

    Gu Jiu deliberately said: "I have an immature idea. Because I don't understand the situation in the palace, my method may not be feasible."

    The second wife Wang said: "You don't have to worry about these, you first tell your method. Whether it will work, we will consider it."

    Gu Jiu nodded, "My thought is that Zhao Wangfu wants to marry sister Qi and win over the Houfu. The people who are the least happy to see this happen are the empresses in the palace besides the Houfu.

    If the thoughts of the Hou Mansion can be passed on to the Empress Empress, I think the Empress Empress should have a way to get the Zhao Palace to dispel this marriage. "

    Gu Jiu's confidence in the queen came from her supporting her weak son to the position of prince, and keeping her position as prince not shaken for so many years.

    Everyone said that as long as the queen lives a day, the crown prince's position will be as stable as a rock.

    It can be seen how powerful the queen's influence on the court and the emperor is.

    Based on these two things alone, we can see that the queen is a very strategic person.

    If she intervenes in this marriage, it will be impossible for Zhao Wangfu's plan.

    Gu Qi looked at the second wife Wang clan, "Mother, is the method Xiao Jiu's sister said is feasible?"

    The second wife Wang frowned, "This matter has to be discussed in the long term."

    Gu Jiu knew what Wang was worried about.

    She said: "Cooperating with the Empress Empress is a double-edged sword for the Hou Mansion. The most worrying thing is that the Empress Empress will use this matter to intimidate the Hou Mansion and let Hou Mansion stand on the side of the prince and become a party of the prince. pawn."

    The second wife Wang nodded again and again, "Xiao Jiu is right, I'm just worried about this."

    Gu Jiu smiled lightly, "To put it a taboo, if the empress's empress lives for a hundred years, this matter is indeed a big hidden worry. If you are not careful, the Hou Mansion will fall into a situation where it will never be restored.

    Then, everyone knows that the Queen Empress’ days are running out. At this time, cooperating with the Empress Empress, the Hou Mansion actually has a lot of leeway, and it can be said to be able to advance and retreat freely. "

    Huh?

    Everyone looked puzzled.

    "Xiao Jiu, don't betray you, talk to us quickly."

    Gu Jiu asked, "Second cousin, what do you think the empress is most worried about now?"

    The second wife, Wang, was stunned for a moment, but she quickly reacted, "The queen empress is most worried about the safety of the prince after she has gone. There is also the cadre of Weiyang Palace, who was cultivated by her heart. , Lost in vain, everyone feels distressed."

    "If the Hou Mansion promises the Empress Empress, she will do something for her. Second cousin, you guessed, will the Empress Empress be willing to cooperate with the Hou Mansion to abolish the marriage plan of Prince Zhao's Mansion?"

    There was light in Gu Jiu's eyes, a light called excitement.

    The second wife Wang asked nervously: "What can we do for the empress?"

    "Hou Mansion can help empresses in many places. For example, to protect the Xue family, for example, to protect the members of Weiyang Palace, etc., for example, to protect the prince's safety within one year."

    "This, is it possible?" The second lady Wang was a little confused, "The Hou Mansion doesn't have such a great energy."

    Gu Jiu smiled softly, "Second Tang Auntie, whether the Hou Mansion has such a large energy, it is up to the Lord Hou to have the final say."

    The second lady Wang frowned.

    Gu Qi looked at Gu Jiu, but she forgot to cry.

    Gu Mei whispered to Gu Jiu, "Sister Xiao Jiu, are these things you said reliable? You listened to others, or you thought about them."

    Gu Jiu replied in a low voice: "What I said are my own thoughts. Let me just say it, you don't have to take it seriously."

    Gu Mei smiled bitterly, "At this time, Sister Xiao Jiu is still joking. How could we not take such a big thing seriously. Even if we listened to it for the first time, those words of yours have all entered our hearts, and we will never forget them. Lose."

    Gu Qi nodded repeatedly.

    The second wife Wang said: "This matter is very important, I have to discuss with the old lady Laohou. Qi'er, don't worry, no one can tell what will happen until the end. Mei girl, Xiao Jiu , You two should accompany Qier more."

    "Second aunt, go and work, sister Qi has me here, don't worry."

    The second lady Wang hurried away.

    Gu Qi then asked Gu Jiu, "Sister Xiao Jiu, will the method you mentioned work? I really don't need to marry Prince Zhao's mansion?"

    Gu Jiu said: "The matter is man-made. But in order to avoid retaliation from Prince Zhao's residence, after the matter is resolved, it is best for Sister Qi to make an early marriage and get married as soon as possible."

    Gu Qi said, "But in such a short time, where can I find a suitable marriage."

    Gu Mei comforted her: "Sister Qi, don't worry. With the old lady here, your marriage will be resolved soon."

    "Thank you Sister Mei. Sister Xiaojiu, you are amazing. You figured out a solution for such a difficult thing in a few words. How did your little head grow?"

    Gu Qi will recover now, so she is thinking about joking.

    Gu Jiu said, "My little head, of course it is for eating."

    "Ha ha……"

    Everyone laughed.

    Gu Qi finally laughed, and Gu Mei secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

    When it got late, Gu Jiu and Gu Mei said goodbye to Gu Qi and returned to the room.

    After washing up, I planned to rest after reading a book, but the old lady next to her found her.

    "Is Miss Xiao Jiu here?"

    "Is it Mother Yu? Come in, please."

    Sister Yu entered the house, saluted the two girls, and then said: "The old lady sent the servants to take a look. If Miss Xiao Jiu is not asleep, go to Songhetang to talk."

    Gu Jiu was puzzled and vaguely guessed something.

    Gu Mei asked hurriedly: "It's so late, and the old lady asked Sister Xiao Jiu to talk over. Sister Yu, did something happen?"

    "The maidservant doesn't know exactly what the matter is. The maidservant just asked Miss Xiao Jiu over to speak according to the old lady's order."

    Gu Mei worried.

    Gu Jiu said to her, "Sister Mei, don't worry. I think it should be sister Qi."

    "Then I will go with you."

    Gu Jiu nodded.

    The two sisters followed Mother Yu to Songhetang.

    The main hall of Songhetang was already full of people.

    Old lady, Lord Hou.

    Great master, big lady.

    Second master, second lady.

    Gu Jiu stepped forward and saluted.

    "Don't be too polite, Xiao Jiu, Mei Mai, you all sit down."

    Lord Hou is a very energetic old man, with a pair of eyes to see through the world.

    He looked at Gu Jiu, "Xiao Jiu, the old man has heard what you said to your second cousin aunt before. Your idea is very remarkable."

    Gu Jiu said hurriedly, "Master Hou is absurd, I just talk about it casually."

    "Talking about it can alarm the whole family, and if you talk about it seriously, it's even more serious."

    Old Master Hou laughed, very hearty. It also dilutes Gu Jiu's inner tension.

    After laughing, Lord Hou stroked his beard and said, "The Queen Empress is not an easy master. Cooperate with her and be careful to get her skin off. But Xiao Jiu's idea is right. Please ask the queen to face Fu Xue. Noble concubine and Zhao Wangfu, this is the best way."

    The second master Gu Zhiwu looked at Old Hou Ye, "Father, I am reluctant to marry Qi'er to the Zhao Palace. But if the entire Hou Palace is sacrificed, the marriage can be terminated. I would rather marry Qi'er to the Zhao Palace."

    The old man waved his hand, "Second, don't worry. The empress is not easy to mess with, but as Xiao Jiu said, the empress will not live long. The news from the palace is always possible for the empress. Departure. This is also a good thing for our Hou Mansion."

    The elder Gu Zhiwen asked: "Does my father really intend to take Xiao Jiu's opinion and cooperate with the queen empress? But in this way, we are not tied to the prince. It will be difficult to get away in the future."

    Master Hou laughed, he pointed to Gu Jiu, "Xiao Jiu, tell everyone about your thoughts."

    Gu Jiu was nervous.

    She took a deep breath, settled, and then said: "My idea is that the Hou Mansion is cooperating with the Empress Empress, not the prince."

    "What's the difference? The queen's interests are the prince's interests." the second master Gu Zhiwu asked.

    Gu Jiu shook his head slightly, "I don't agree with what Uncle Er Tang said. In my opinion, there is a fundamental difference between the queen and the prince.

    No mother can fully represent the son of an adult. Not even the queen.

    The cooperation between the Hou Mansion and the queen does not mean that it has to cooperate with the prince. The queen is the queen, the prince is the prince, they are different. "

    "How is it different?"

    Gu Jiu smiled and said, "Weiyang Palace and Donggong are two completely different groups of people. Old Master, is there really no contradiction between the people in Weiyang Palace and Donggong? Are they really close together?"

    Master Hou laughed, "How is this possible. There are still fights between the upper and lower teeth, let alone two completely different groups of people.

    On the surface, Weiyang Palace and Dong Palace have the same interests. But in private, there are contradictions and struggles on both sides.

    It’s common for people in the East Palace to look down on the people in Weiyang Palace, and to look down on the people in the East Palace. "

    Gu Jiu laughed and said to the second master Gu Zhiwu: "Uncle Er Tang, this is what I said is different. This is also a favorable condition for this cooperation."

    The second master seemed to understand but did not understand, a little understood, but he didn't feel like to understand.

    He looked at Master Laohou, "Father, please tell me what to do. My son listens to you."

    Old Houye didn't rush to make a decision, but looked at Gu Jiu, "Xiao Jiu, in what way do you think the Hou Mansion should cooperate with the Queen Empress?"
