famous eldest daughter

Chapter 1022 Voice
Since the prince said "Yao'er is getting engaged", that meant that even though the old lady had many dissatisfactions in her heart, the marriage was finally settled?

After Gu Yuqing finished speaking, the imperial concubine said, "It's a merchant we've chosen."

From the tone of the imperial concubine, Gu Yuqing couldn't tell whether she was happy or opposed. Wringing the handkerchief, Gu Yuqing said, "But the Tu family?"

The princess's eyes flashed, "Yaoer told you?"

Gu Yuqing shook his head and said with a smile: "The only merchants worthy of Pingxi Prince's Palace are the Tu family." After saying that, he turned to look at the old lady, "It's a good marriage."

The old lady frowned and looked at Gu Yuqing, "You think it's good?"

Gu Yuqing nodded, "Yes, although the Tu family is now a merchant, compared to other merchants, the Tu family has always paid attention to the teaching of the children of the clan. There are six or seven civil and military schools in the clan alone."

"Furthermore, the Tu family's family rules are strict. Men in the clan are not allowed to take concubines unless their first wife has not yet come out at the age of forty."

"I wonder which young master of the Tu family Yao'er has chosen. It would be best if it is the third young master of the Tu family."

A glimmer of light gradually appeared in the old lady's gloomy eyes, "How can I say he is the best?"

Gu Yuqing laughed and said: "I heard that the third son of the Tu family is talented in both civil and military affairs. If it is really him who proposes marriage, Yao'er will marry him and let him be influenced by the Pingxi Palace. Maybe he can become a fierce general. !"

Gu Yuqing didn't know whether the third master of the Tu family would become a fierce general. She only knew that the third master of the Tu family was indeed a good character, and he was absolutely infatuated with Luo Yao.

This is enough.

All I said was to coax the old lady to be more open-minded and let her happily marry Luo Yao.

After Gu Yuqing finished speaking, the Crown Prince of Pingxi Palace smiled and said, "What a coincidence, it's him!"

Gu Yuqing was immediately delighted, "Have you already proposed marriage?"

The eldest princess of Pingxi Palace said: "Well, the Tu family came the day before yesterday. Not only the matchmaker came, but also the patriarch of the Tu family." After saying that, the eldest princess of Pingxi Palace glanced at the old lady and continued: " It shows that his family really cares about this marriage."

Listening to the words of the Princess of Pingxi Palace, and looking at her expression when she had secretly glanced at the old lady just now, Gu Yuqing suddenly felt enlightened.

The Crown Princess was happy with this marriage, but the old lady was probably dissatisfied with the origin of the Tu family. Gu Yuqing immediately said: "The patriarchs are here? Is the patriarch of the Tu family already eighty years old?"

The eldest concubine of Pingxi Palace really didn't expect that Gu Yuqing not only agreed with this marriage so much, but also knew the Tu family so well, and she was really happy.

Since Tu's family came to propose marriage, Pingxi Palace has been gloomy for two or three days.

The mansion was divided into two factions. Unprecedentedly, she aligned herself with the old prince and approved of the Tu family's marriage, while the prince opposed it together with the old lady.

She could completely ignore the prince's objections, but here the old lady...

With Gu Yuqing's attitude at the moment, the imperial concubine naturally had to seize the opportunity and said hurriedly: "I'm not over 80, so it's really not easy to come here. It shows that I really value Yao'er."

Gu Yuqing nodded, "When the eldest son of the second wife of the Tu family married the legitimate daughter of the Su family in Rizhao, Shandong Province last year, the patriarch did not appear to be involved in the marriage himself."

The Su family in Rizhao, Shandong Province, has a century-old farming and studying family. There are several generations of scholars in the family, and everyone is successful. The position of Taifu alone almost covers everything for his family.

Although such a family does not need Pingxi Palace in terms of official position, their reputation far exceeds that of Pingxi Palace.

The legitimate daughter of his family could be married off, and Luo Yao would not be too disgraced to Prince Pingxi's palace by marrying him.

When Gu Yuqing mentioned the Su family, the Princess of Pingxi Palace's eyes immediately lit up.

That's right, the concubine daughter of Su's family in Shandong Rizhao last year was the second son who married the second wife of the Tu family. She heard that life was very good. This living example was right in front of her eyes, how could she forget it!
This one example is better than thousands of words of advice from her.

After Gu Yuqing finished speaking, the Princess of Pingxi Palace immediately looked at the old lady with her eyes.

Sure enough, the old lady's face brightened slightly when she heard this, and she said to Gu Yuqing: "How will the Su family's child live well after he gets married?"

Gu Yuqing pursed her lips and smiled and said: "I can't say whether it's good or not. You can send someone to the local area to find out. After all, it is the happiness of Yao'er's life. If you want to find out, you have to go to the Tu family and the Su family. Everyone asks around."

The old lady nodded when she heard this and smiled at Gu Yuqing: "If you hadn't said that, I would have thought you were the lobbyist she invited!"

The Crown Princess of Prince Pingxi smiled and said, "Mother has wronged me."

Even if we put this matter aside for the time being, "What's going on with your aunt?" the old lady frowned again and asked.

Gu Yuqing knew that the old lady was asking about rumors, so she immediately smiled bitterly, "The night before yesterday, my father did receive a letter from Yunnan. After reading the letter, my father said that our great-aunt is coming, but here we are. Before, I didn’t even know I had a great-aunt!”

"Yesterday, there were rumors going around in the capital. They were all about anything. On my way here today, I heard a few rumors. Some people even said that it was my grandfather who was responsible for marrying her off to Yunnan. , saying that the glory that Chinanhou Mansion has today is all because of her sacrifice."

"It's so mysterious, I don't know if it's true or not."

Once a rumor spreads, it cannot stop suddenly. The more suppressed it is, the more it will spread crazily. Gu Yuqing naturally understands this truth well, so when she left Bazhen Pavilion that day, she had no idea about the current situation. Just let the rumors go unchecked.

If you want to break this rumor, you can only spread new news and replace it.

Only when this rumor spreads more and more outrageously, and when she releases new information, will everyone's hearts be shaken more intensely.

Hearing what Gu Yuqing said, the old matriarch immediately said angrily: "What is true and false, of course it is false. She didn't mention the nasty things she did back then, but she has the face to say that the Chinanhoufu is sorry for her! It is really true. Confusing right and wrong, I have never come back in my life. Now that I am old, I come back with a shameful face, which is really a good thing!"

Speaking of this great aunt, the old lady's face was full of irritation.

Gu Yuqing originally thought that the old lady was just asking because she cared, but unexpectedly, she actually had something to say, so she immediately turned her attention away and looked at the old lady, "You mean, she has not been with Chinanhoufu for so many years. Is it because of what happened back then?"

Gu Yuqing asked ambiguously.

She didn't dare to say that she knew nothing about what happened back then. Once the old lady knew that her father didn't tell her much about the past, she was afraid that the old lady would not mention it at all.

The old matriarch snorted heavily, "A person like her can't afford it early. No matter what happened in the past, since she is visiting now, she must have a plan. You can be careful and don't follow her way."

After saying that, the old lady sighed helplessly, "In the end, she is your elder after all. Since she came to Kyoto, you can't let her live outside. No matter what, she can stay at home with good food and drink. As for her Ignore any requests I make. If you can't handle them, just come to me."

The old lady wanted to intervene directly, but after all, it was a family matter of the Chinan Marquis Mansion!She is an outsider after all!
