famous eldest daughter

Chapter 1015
Gu Zhen calmed down and looked up at Gu Yuqing and Gu Zemu, "Your great-aunt is coming."

"Grandmother?"

Gu Yuqing and Gu Zemu wondered in unison.

However, Gu Zemu looked at Gu Yuqing with doubts in his eyes: Do we have an aunt?

Gu Yuqing, on the other hand, looked at Gu Zhen with doubts in her eyes: We have an aunt?
In her past and present life, Gu Yuqing had never heard that she had an aunt.

Aunt and grandma, that is her grandfather's sister, such a close person, when grandparents passed away, why didn't they appear?And my mother passed away, I have never heard of such a No. [-] person!

The manager just said that the letter was sent from Yunnan. Is it because my aunt lives in Yunnan and the news from Kyoto was not sent?
Gu Yuqing shook her head inwardly, let alone Yunnan, no matter how far south Yunnan is, as long as she wants to send it, she can send it there, and as long as she wants to come, even if she can't come because she is old or unwell, then her Where are the children?It’s also due.

She hasn't shown up these years, is it because Chinanhou's mansion didn't notify her, or she didn't come by herself?

When Gu Yuqing was confused, Gu Zhen turned to the old steward and said, "You can go down now. I will just follow the eldest lady's instructions tomorrow as to how to arrange it."

The manager agreed and left.

The door to the study room was closed, Gu Zhen's eyes fell on the letter on the table again, took a breath, and said: "Don't say you don't know this great-aunt, if I didn't write, I wouldn't be able to remember that I have an aunt. "

Taking a sip of hot tea, the past gradually came to mind, and Gu Zhen said slowly: "This great-aunt is your grandfather's sibling sister, and she married the King of Dianyang in Yunnan."

King of Dianyang...

Gu Yuqing knew about this character, but she didn't know that Princess Dianyang was actually her great-aunt.

The current King of Dianyang just inherited the shadow title of his ancestors. He is mediocre and has no talents. He has never made any meritorious deeds in the past few years. The peace and stability of the war in Yunnan have always been dependent on the Murong family of Yunnan.

The Prince's Palace of Dianyang was originally the palace of military generals. Unfortunately, after the glory of the first generation, no one from the younger generation emerged. Now, it is said that the gold and jade on the outside has long been ruined, but it only has the airs of a prince's palace.

In the aristocratic circles of Kyoto, there has always been a saying that noble girls should not marry far away.

Back then, my aunt was the daughter of the dignified Marquis of Chinan. How could my great-grandfather agree to marry her off to Yunnan?What's more, the other party is still a prince Chengjue who has no merits and no virtue.

Moreover, such an illegitimate marriage should have caused an uproar in Kyoto, but she had never heard of it.

Even if ordinary people don't mention it, how come those noble ladies who have always been hostile to her are unwilling to mention it to humiliate her?

Even if King Dianyang is a prince, the title of this prince is probably not as valuable as a fourth-grade official in Kyoto!

Are they, like her, unheard of?

Doubts arose layer by layer, and Gu Yuqing stared at her father with squinted eyes.

Gu Zhen's face was expressionless, but his eyes were slightly lost in thought. He stared at the tea cup in his hand and said, "I have never met your great-aunt. She had already left the government when I was born."

"Your grandparents rarely mentioned her, and my grandparents never mentioned this daughter, so I don't know why she was married to Yunnan. I only know that as long as I can remember, she has never been with Chi Nan. We have had the slightest contact with the Hou Mansion."

While talking, Gu Zhen looked at the letter again, "This is the first time!"

Gu Yuqing's heart trembled, "Father, is this great-aunt a direct descendant?"

If she is the daughter of a concubine, even if it is not decent to marry far away, it is still justifiable, but if she is a legitimate daughter...

Gu Zhen looked at Gu Yuqing with eyes fixed on the tea cup, "He is a direct descendant, and he is the same as your grandfather."

A compatriot from the same mother...married away to the palace of a poor prince in Yunnan, and was never heard from again...

"If I hadn't heard your grandparents mention her by chance, I wouldn't even know that I have an aunt who is a princess." A complicated wry smile flicked the corner of Gu Zhen's mouth, his mind was blurred for a moment, and then he said in a flash: "What about her?" I only know that she married the King of Dianyang, and I don’t know anything else."

As he spoke, Gu Zhen let out a long sigh, a smile appeared on his solemn face, suppressed the emotions in his eyes, and said to Gu Yuqing: "That's all, since she's here, just welcome her. If she asks for anything, you can If you can do it, you might as well make it easier for her."

Gu Yuqing listened to her father's words, and then recalled the look in her father's eyes that had not faded away when he looked at her just now, and felt that his father had something he didn't say to them.

My father concealed the past.

What was the father hiding, something dishonorable?

While Gu Yuqing was thinking about it, Gu Zhen breathed a sigh of relief, and said again: "However, no matter what, you two must remember that this is Chinanhou Mansion and your home, and the prerequisite for doing anything is not to suffer it yourself. Wronged."

After saying this, Gu Yuqing's doubts became even more intense.

The father's instruction clearly meant that he knew that this aunt's coming would definitely bring grievances to her and her brother.

What happened back then that caused my father to have such an attitude towards his great-aunt whom he had never met.

After Gu Zhen finished speaking, Gu Yuqing suppressed her doubts, nodded in agreement, and said with a smile: "My daughter knows, father can rest assured."

Gu Zhen smiled and said, "It's late, let's go to bed."

Before receiving the letter, even if he couldn't celebrate the New Year at home, his father would just feel guilty and blame himself, but now, there is clearly anger hidden in his eyes.

What the hell happened back then!
If her father didn't say anything, she couldn't ask, so she had to leave with Gu Zemu. Gu Yuqing couldn't help but said, "Father isn't sleeping yet?"

Gu Zhen shook his head and said with a smile: "You guys go to bed first, I will pack things for tomorrow's departure."

Gu Yuqing took Gu Zemu and bowed before leaving, but she knew in her heart that what was keeping her father sleepless in a single room was not the departure tomorrow, but the arrival of her great-aunt.

Coming out of the study, a cold wind blew on his face, making him shiver. Gu Zemu insisted on sending Gu Yuqing back to Tongyuan before going back to rest. Although Gu Yuqing of the Chinan Marquis Mansion was already familiar with him and could no longer be familiar with him. Just the first day comes.

Gu Yuqing couldn't defeat him, so the two siblings walked side by side.

"Sister, I can vaguely guess why this great-aunt suddenly came to the door." After a moment of silence, Gu Zemu said.

Gu Yuqing turned her head to look at her special brother, "What?"

"His Majesty has not renewed the seal of the Prince of Dianyang. In other words, now, the Prince of Dianyang is the prince, but his son is not the prince. Once he is gone, the Prince of Dianyang will no longer be the prince, but An ordinary common man."
