Under the Empress Dowager, all members will be King

Chapter 8 Betting Mrs. Gu Will Make Mistakes

Gu Yinwei did not rush to answer, but looked at the scene in front of her.

The sound of the rain outside gradually stopped, and the raindrops on the leaves fell on the bluestone slabs, as if playing a graceful song. There was a lush peonies growing under the eaves, and the raindrops on the flowers were shining brightly. The flowers are more colorful.

There is a faint fragrance of flowers around, as well as the fragrance of banana leaves and bamboo leaves.

The two of them are in their prime, but the topic they are talking about is murder. Gu Yinwei feels that this topic is too inappropriate.

"Second sister, it's fine if you don't want to say it, the rain has stopped, so my sister will leave now."

Standing behind Gu Yinwei, Chu Chu hesitated to speak. After a while, she mustered up her courage and said, "Second Miss, Third Miss seems very disappointed."

"If you're disappointed, be disappointed. How can Xiao Fengyu be defeated so easily? To deal with her, we have to think long-term."

Chu Chu has already understood Gu Yinwei's intentions. She set up this situation to solve Mrs. Chen and Zhong Baishi, and to challenge Mrs. Gu.

It's just that I don't know what kind of backhands Second Miss has left behind, and what kind of methods she has. The second Miss in the past had a pure mind, and she could guess her mind with a single guess. People can't see clearly and can't figure it out.

In the early morning of the next day, Gu Yingxia came to look for Gu Yinwei several times, wanting to know what arrangement Gu Yinwei had, but Gu Yinwei said that she had no arrangement, and Gu Yingxia left resentfully.

Gu Shenzhi came back before the sun set. As soon as he came back, the God of Ears reported to him. Zhong Baishi entered his wife's inner courtyard and he knew about the matter of repairing the flower wall for her. Gu Shenzhi did not confront Mrs. The servants in the mansion who knew the inside story sold all of them, and they even said they wanted to take the flat peaches as aunts.

Gu Qingrong also wanted to bring the military advisor Biantao into the palace, but she was not willing to give Biantao to Gu Shenzhi, so she had a big fight with Gu Shenzhi.

Gu Qingrong tried hard to keep Ting Tao, but Gu Shenzhi often went out and needed a good wife by his side, Ting Tao happened to be a suitable candidate, Gu Shenzhi chose Ting Tao to be his aunt, in fact, there was another important reason, which was Tsing Tao's age The bigger it is, the more it looks like Mrs. Xian.

Gu Qingrong argued hard, and even put the knife on her face, threatening that if Gu Shenzhi didn't leave the almonds, she would slash her face, Gu Shenzhi was very chilled by this.

Now the gap between their mother and daughter and Gu Shenzhi is getting bigger and bigger, Gu Yingxia is bringing tea and snacks, Gu Shenzhi just remembered that he has a neglected little daughter.

"You are more sensible than your two sisters."

Gu Yingxia smiled purely, "My daughter is willing to share father's worries."

Gu Shenzhi looked at Gu Yingxia seriously, then shook his head.

"You're not pretty enough, and you're not smart enough."

The smile on Gu Yingxia's face froze for a moment. After leaving Gu Shenzhi's study, Gu Yingxia muttered as she walked, "It's obvious that you are biased and refused to give me the contacts and resources left for big sister, but complained that I am not beautiful enough, and said that I am not beautiful enough. Not smart enough, it's nonsense, I'm the smartest of the three daughters."

Ah Qing tried to persuade her not to cry.

"Miss, tomorrow is the day to run for the election. It's not good to have your eyes blurred from crying."

"I didn't cry. No one in this family cares about me, and I don't care about this family either."

A person came out from under the dark eaves, and that person was holding a lantern.

"Tsk tsk, I'm going to be sad when the third sister says this. I'm obviously the person in this family who cares about the third sister the most."

"You care about me, then you should find a way to make Gu Qingrong lose the election."

"I can't do this."

"Then you made me a blockbuster in the primary."

"I can't do that either."

"You can't even do such a small request, and you still have the nerve to say you care about me."

snort! "

Gu Yingxia uttered a single sound from her nostrils, turned her head and walked away.

Gu Yinwei returned to the bedroom, raised her arm to draw the rune, tried several times, but ended in failure every time.

Only Chu Chu is the most loyal maidservant to her. Tomorrow she will definitely take Chu Chu to the election, Gu Yingxia will take Ah Qing, and Gu Qingrong will take Ting Tao.

The only person available to her is Chu Chu. She had drawn three talismans before, one thunder flame talisman, one Yin summoning talisman, and one ice talisman, and now the three talismans have been broken.

If she had known earlier that she would not be able to draw talismans for the next six months, she would definitely not have used the lightning-calling talisman to hit Mrs. Zhong, and should have saved Madam Gu.

Regrets, however, are of no use.

Now she can only wait. When she read the original book, she discovered that Mrs. Gu's childhood was described in the book. She had a childhood sweetheart cousin in her childhood.

This cousin lives in Jizhou, which is not far from Yizhou. Gu Yinwei has sent someone to find him. It is estimated that in three to five days, Mrs. Gu will be able to meet her young cousin.

Now I can only gamble that Mrs. Gu will make a mistake.

As long as she made a mistake, Mrs. Gu would be divorced by Gu Shenzhi, so that everything Gu Shenzhi arranged would fall on Gu Yingxia.

The bridge in Yizhou City was responsible for receiving the beautiful girls, and it landed at the gate of Gu's house early. There were three small sedan chairs, the body of which was decorated with light yellow silk and satin, and there were two servants behind the sedan chairs.

Gu Qingrong was a little unhappy, his father was a minister after all, so he had to get a big sedan chair carried by eight people, such a small sedan chair carried by four people was really shabby.

However, Gu Yingxia found her own sedan chair and quickly sat in it. She didn't want to stay in this house for a moment.

Gu Yinwei also sat in the sedan chair, Chu Chu and Ah Qing stood outside the sedan chair, the young lady sat in the sedan chair, and the maid walked.

When Gu Shenzhi came out, two of his daughters had already boarded the sedan chair. He wanted to talk to Gu Qingrong, but the heavy sedan chair curtain blocked his view.

The three daughters left the house all at once, the east and west yards of the Gu family were empty, and Mrs. Gu's heart was also empty.

Gu Shenzhi went back to the mansion for a few days and then went out to run some errands. Mrs. Gu was the only one left in the entire Gu family.

Marry someone who doesn't come home, wait for a door that doesn't open.

Madam Gu's resentment is enough to fill the pond of the Gu family.

Fortunately, an old acquaintance came to see her, and Mrs. Gu finally relaxed her brows.

The three sisters of the Gu family sat in a sedan chair all the way to the tallest building in Yizhou City. This high-rise building is called Qifeng Building. The building is [-] feet high.

A nun holding a ruler ordered the show girls to stand in a row. The show girls spread their hands and moved their knuckles, and the nun checked one by one whether the show girls' fingers were deformed.

Then tell the show girls to open their mouths to check their teeth, and then let the show girls roll their eyes to check their eyesight.

Then the height and waist were measured, and then the maids brought up the stools, the beautiful girls took off their shoes and socks, and the nuns checked the soles and toes of the beautiful girls.

The second level checks the posture and figure. The show girls line up and walk back and forth. This level mainly screens out people with body odor and incoordination of limbs.

The third floor examines speech and handwriting. Not many people can reach the third floor from the first floor, and even fewer people can reach the fourth and fifth floors.

Gu Qingrong was the only one among the three sisters of the Gu family who reached the fifth floor.

She was chatting and laughing with a few noble girls, with such an intimate appearance, she was more friendly than when she got along with Gu Yinwei and Gu Yingxia, as if she and these noble girls were real sisters, and the way she looked at Gu Yinwei and Gu Yingxia, But it's the same as looking at almonds.

In the primary election in Yizhou City, Gu Yinwei stood out from 500 candidates and became the top three.

Among the five hundred contestants, there were many beautiful and graceful women, but they were not selected, which made Gu Yinwei very puzzled, but some ordinary-looking women were selected.

Gu Yingxia explained her doubts: "The talent selection is not only based on appearance and figure, but also family background. Ms. Zhao's birth is not bad, but it's a pity that her father and brother have no official career, so she is destined not to be selected."

Gu Yinwei said: "You seem to know a lot about the inside story of the draft."

Gu Yingxia suddenly became sentimental, "The moon above our heads is the moon from a thousand years ago. Those of us who are a thousand years from now are actually no different from those who were a thousand years ago."

Gu Yinwei stared at the moon, "The ancient moon shines on people today, I don't know how many people like you and me have seen this round of moon."

"The most important thing Xiunu should care about is her own life, followed by the emperor's favor. How can she care so much about the moon?"

Gu Yingxia turned over and fell asleep for a long time.

Gu Yin pushed open the window slightly. She has almost recovered these days. She stretched out her hand out of the window, and a ray of moonlight from the moonlight was sucked into her palm. The yellowness on her face dissipated immediately, and her whole body looked like Put on a layer of moonlight.

The night passed quickly, Gu Yinwei and Gu Yingxia shared a carriage, and Gu Yingxia stared at Gu Yinwei when they got up together.

"What are you looking at?"

"You seem to be a little different. Your skin is delicate and fair, and your dark circles are gone. You obviously went to bed later than me last night."

"When you are in a good mood, your skin will naturally heal."

"Really? Did you know someone who is an expert in the world, but secretly kept it from me?"

"You think the nuns and guards outside are vegetarians."

"That's right, you can't possibly know an expert."

When the show girls arrived at the post station, the nanny arranged for the show girls to have lunch, Gu Qingrong met Gu Yinwei face to face, and Gu Qingrong stared at her for a long time.

She murmured in her heart, why did Gu Yinwei become so beautiful overnight.

Gu Yinwei didn't stay long, and continued to go back to the carriage to read after lunch. Gu Yingxia believed Gu Yinwei's nonsense, thinking that sleeping more would make her have good skin, so she slept almost all the way.

The carriage was swaying, the imperial army led the way in front, guards with knives accompanied on both sides, and behind the team were twelve men in iron clothes. knife.

They have a clear division of labor, the four observe the bushes and hills, the four are responsible for listening to the movements of the people around them, and the remaining four hold the rope with one hand and the knife with the other, ready to strike at any time.

These 12 people rode green horses, five in a row, and the five horses ran at the same time, but there was only one sound of horseshoes.

Gu Yinwei wore a hood on her head. She gently opened the corner of the curtain and looked back. The eyes of one of the horses met Gu Yinwei. Gu Yinwei looked straight at the horse. The son hurriedly turned his head away, looking terrified and very timid.

Gu Yin put down the car curtain slightly, closed her eyes and fell asleep.

Chu Chu gently covered Gu Yinwei with a blanket, Gu Yinwei opened his eyes and asked, "What time is it?"

"At the second quarter of the unitary hour, Miss will rest a little longer. When I arrive at Qifeng Pavilion tomorrow, the nun in charge will give lectures to all the ladies. I'm busy."

Gu Yinwei closed her eyes when she heard the words, Chu Chu and Ah Qing chatted with laughter, "Chu Chu, do you think the three ladies in our family can be divided into one?"

"I don't know for sure. Let's see when the time comes. If they are really grouped together, it's not a bad thing. At least they are people who know the basics. If they are grouped with others, it wouldn't be beautiful."

Gu Yingxia was already awake, she opened and closed her small mouth to talk about the new things she had heard, Ah Qing silently peeled the sunflower seeds for her, and Chu Chu made tea for her.

Sometimes she sips tea, sometimes eats melon seeds, and talks loudly while eating.

"There are more than 50 beautiful women selected this time, and some of them have already obtained ranks. Gu Mengjun, the granddaughter of Doctor Yushi, is Concubine Yi; Yi, Xijiao, the daughter of the governor of the imperial army, is called Xipin."

"These people are already old, so they entered the palace early. We people are not old enough, so we can only stay in Xifeng Pavilion."

"Nowadays, the empress comes from the Qiu family. It is said that she is Qiu Yuying, the eldest daughter of the Qiu family. When the new emperor was still the crown prince, Qiu Yuying was the crown princess. Now that the new emperor is on the throne, Qiu Yuying has also become the crown prince Queen.

"When the new emperor was still in Qiandi, there were three side concubines. Now these three side concubines have been granted Jin titles. Wei side concubine has been named Yi concubine, Wang side concubine has been named Jin concubine, and Mu side concubine has been named concubine Jin. Royal concubine."

"In the past, everyone looked down on Mu Xinran, but they didn't know that he came from behind and directly became the imperial concubine."

"I just like to watch face-slapping scenes. After entering the palace, I must be friends with the imperial concubine."

"Wishful thinking and flattery are not true friends."

"What is that?"

"At best, it's a dog's leg."

"You...you dare to call me a dog's leg, I will strangle you to death."

"If you tell the truth, you won't be able to bear it. How will you walk safely on the road to the deep palace in the future?"

Gu Yingxia hugged Gu Yinwei's arm and acted like a baby: "I'm not afraid, I have my second sister by my side, I'm a good person, I don't do bad things, and I won't harm others. If others come to harm me, I will strangle them to death. I was at a disadvantage in the battle with others, so I asked the second sister for help, and the second sister attracted lightning from the sky and struck them dead."

"Okay, if anyone bullies our third sister, I will call Tianlei to strike him to death."

The two clung to each other and laughed together. Gu Qingrong lifted the curtain of the car to reveal a smiling face. She had flowers on her forehead, her eyebrows turned into willow leaves, her face was painted with new rouge, and the corners of her eyes and brows were full of charm.

Seeing Gu Qingrong coming, Gu Yingxia straightened her clothes immediately, sitting upright with a serious expression.

"I didn't know that the third sister and younger sister are better off like this."

Gu Yingxia didn't answer and asked instead: "Why is Big Sister coming to our place when you are free?"

"As the saying goes, the eldest sister is like a mother, and she stays away from her parents when she goes out. Naturally, I have to take care of the two younger sisters. Today is Miss Ning Heyu's birthday, and I'm here to get a gift."

"Eldest sister, please come back, my second sister and I have not prepared a congratulatory gift."

"What? You guys are not prepared for such a big event?"

Gu Yingxia raised her hand slowly, and then tapped lightly on the tea table twice, "Gift giving and entertainment are big things for you, but nothing for me."

"Ning Heyu's name, this is the first time I heard you mention it today. I am not related to her, so why did I give her a gift? My birthday is coming soon, so why didn't she come to give me a gift?"

　Asking for a ticket Wow, I was stupid to death by myself, I forgot to set the time, I will send it when I get home
