Chapter 165 Chapter 164: Gu Qingyun's heart belongs to her

Gu Zhijin asked: "Then, does the Empress Dowager have a candidate in mind?"

Song Zhibai pondered: "I heard that she is Mei Qinxue, the first daughter of the Mei family."

The empress dowager probably meant that the fat and water would not flow into the fields of outsiders.

Gu Zhijin thought: "Since it is to choose a wife for Prince Jingli, and there is already a candidate, why do you want me to attend?"

"I guess I want to take advantage of this banquet not only to choose a concubine for Prince Jingli, but also to find other princes."

"But with my body, how could I enter the imperial family?" Gu Zhijin frowned.

How is it possible for the royal family to find a sick child to be a concubine.

Song Zhibai poured himself a cup of tea and sighed: "Ah Jin, you are no longer what you used to be. What the royal family values ​​is not your body, but the Nan family behind you."

To put it bluntly, he just fell in love with the Nan Family's 20 Southern Wing Army.

When Gu Zhijin and Xie Wenze got engaged, the royal family also discovered the benefits of Gu Zhijin, but unfortunately, she was already engaged to Xie Wenze at that time, so the royal family had no choice but to let it go.

Now that the two of them have broken off their engagement, Gu Zhijin has no reason not to participate in the royal draft.

Song Zhibai shook his head and sighed bitterly, the royal family finally made a move on Ah Jin.

Behind her and Xiaojiu is the Nan family, no matter which of the two sisters holds the token of the South Wing, the Army of the South Wing is always facing them.

Xiao Jiu is still young, and the royal family will definitely not think of her, and only Ah Jin is the right age for marriage.

Song Zhibai looked at Gu Zhijin, frowned coldly, "Ajin, if possible, I don't want you to marry into the royal family."

Now that the heir apparent is imminent, she doesn't like Ah Jin getting involved and becoming a victim of interests.

Even marrying an ordinary family is better than jumping into the fire pit of the royal family.

Gu Zhijin held her hand and smiled lightly: "Ah Bai don't have to worry, isn't it still not in the draft, and what will happen in the future is uncertain."

Song Zhibai smiled slightly: "That's right, man is not as good as heaven is, and in the future, we can only take one step and see one step at a time."

But she still hoped that Ah Jin would be able to escape unscathed.

This muddy water of the royal family is not suitable for her.

At Xu time, the sky was already dark.

Song Zhibai chatted with Gu Zhijin for a while, then got up and went back to the house, telling her to be careful when entering the palace tomorrow.

At a moment's notice, Gu Qingyun was arranging herbs in the room.

Aunt Jiang walked in, holding an invitation card in her hand, she was dressed in jewels, her face was rosy, and she was obviously in a good mood.

Now half of the middle class of the family is in her hands. After being an aunt for so long, she is naturally proud.

Seeing her come in, Gu Qingyun continued to work, and said softly, "Why is Auntie here?"

"Of course it's a good thing for my aunt to find you." Aunt Jiang smiled like a flower, put the invitation in her hand in front of her, and said happily: "Just now someone from the palace sent the invitation, and the empress dowager is going to hold a banquet in the palace tomorrow. Appreciating Peony, I also invite you to attend."

Gu Qingyun glanced at the invitation card lightly, without showing any excitement on her face, she responded: "Got it."

Aunt Jiang saw that she was not in high spirits, so the smile on her face dropped to three points, and she gave her a look: "Tomorrow you have to dress up to attend, I have already inquired about it, and the royal selection is coming soon, tomorrow the Queen Mother intends to give those princes Looking for a concubine."

Gu Qingyun lowered her head and fiddled with the herbs, seemingly not very interested.

Regardless of whether she listened or not, Aunt Jiang continued: "However, I heard that the Empress Dowager is mainly choosing a concubine for Prince Jingli this time, and she already has a candidate in her heart."

Gu Qingyun's hands fiddled with the herbs paused, her eyes suddenly fluttered.

She pursed her red lips, furrowed her willow eyebrows almost imperceptibly, looked down at the herbs in her hand, and said calmly, "Does my aunt know which girl the Empress Dowager chose for Prince Jingli?"

"Let me think about it," Aunt Jiang rolled her eyes and thought, then clapped her hands, "Oh, I remembered, I heard that she is the daughter of the Mei family."

"Miss Mei is both talented and beautiful, and she is a good match for Prince Jingli," Gu Qingyun smiled with red lips, but her lowered eyes concealed loneliness.

That Miss Mei had a relationship with her before, she also enjoyed a good reputation in the imperial capital, and she was also very talented in appearance and talent. It was a match made in heaven to form a good relationship with him.

Aunt Jiang sneered, "What's so good about Prince Jingli? He's not strong enough, and he doesn't have any real power in his hands. He's just an idle prince. He's about 30 years old and hasn't married yet. I don't know if there's something wrong."

"Aunt," Gu Qingyun's tone was slightly cold, interrupting her, "Don't talk about others behind your back."

"I just said a few words casually," Aunt Jiang didn't care much, and didn't think much about why Gu Qingyun's attitude was suddenly cold. She knew that her daughter was a benevolent doctor, and thought she didn't like to arrange others behind her back.

Aunt Jiang looked down on Jing Moyan from the bottom of her heart. Although she is also an upright prince, she has no real power in her hands and is also weak. She is about to stand in her thirties and has not brought up a concubine. I don't know if there is something wrong with her body. Hidden disease.

Hearing that the queen mother wanted to betroth a girl from the Mei family to him, Concubine Jiang had nothing to envy. Although her daughter was a concubine, her appearance and talent were all top-notch. Few noble daughters from the imperial capital could match her, and she was no worse than those prostitute daughters.

She thinks that her daughter is more than enough to marry into the royal family, and if she wants to marry, she must marry a noble prince, and she must not marry an idle prince like Jing Moyan.

In her heart, Aunt Jiang also had a sweet dream of "flying on a branch and becoming a phoenix".

It's just that she still doesn't know what Gu Qingyun is thinking.

Gu Qingyun was taciturn, and only cared about playing with the herbs in her hand, her beautiful eyes were closed, showing no emotion at all.

Aunt Jiang was slightly annoyed when she saw her unprogressive attitude, took her hand that was still fiddling with herbs, sat on a stool beside her, and said earnestly: "Yun'er must seize the opportunity this time, the princes of the royal family, Each of you has an extraordinary bearing, if you get their favor, my son will definitely stand out in the future, and my aunt will also enjoy happiness with you."

"Tomorrow, although the Empress Dowager will mainly choose concubines for Prince Jingli, she will also find noble girls from various families for other princes. If you perform well tomorrow, with your looks, you will definitely catch the eyes of those princes."

Aunt Jiang doesn't have a son, but relying on this one daughter to get ahead, she doesn't want Gu Qingyun to miss such a good opportunity this time.

Gu Qingyun frowned lightly, but did not respond to her words.

Those princes, even though they are graceful and dignified, are not the ones she likes.
In the relationship between men and women, she didn't want to wrong herself.

Her downcast eyes were full of sadness, and she sighed, "Auntie, let the marriage take its course, there is still a period of time for the selection, let's talk about it when the time comes."

After all, she still refused to compromise.

Her indifferent attitude made Aunt Jiang annoyed, but there was nothing she could do. This daughter had her own opinions since she was a child, and she was also stubborn in her bones. She wouldn't listen to what she didn't want to do.
