famous eldest daughter

Chapter 187
Thinking of this, Gu Yuqing couldn't help but blush again on her cheeks. Afraid of being caught by Nanny Huang, she hurriedly changed the subject and said, "Did you hear my mother mention Miao Xinjiang in the early years?"

Nanny Huang's hand that was applying medicine to Gu Yuqing suddenly stopped, and her face suddenly changed drastically. The emotional fluctuations caused by the past events made Nanny Huang squeeze Gu Yuqing's fingers with force. Gu Yuqing felt pain and said "Hmm" Ying Ning shouted, and Nanny Huang hurriedly woke up.

He had just mentioned the word "Miao Jiang", but Nanny Huang's reaction was so huge. Gu Yuqing's heart suddenly shrank, she grabbed Nanny Huang's hand and said excitedly: "Do you know, Nanny?"

Meeting Gu Yuqing's eager eyes, Nanny Huang frowned and took a deep breath, asking, "Why did the eldest lady suddenly think of asking this?"

Gu Yuqing took out the rosewood box from her arms and pushed it to Nanny Huang. Ji Xiangruyi saw at a glance that the box was the one they dug out under the silver myrtle tree in the small garden last night. She couldn't help but step forward and waited with bated breath for Huang. Grandma’s following.

When her eyes touched the totem pattern on the box, Nanny Huang felt as if she had been struck by lightning. Her whole body trembled. She reached out tremblingly and rubbed the surface of the box, her brows frowning deeper and deeper.

"Where did the eldest lady get this?" Aunt Huang asked after a long while, but her voice was different from the usual conciseness, with a little hoarseness.

The more Aunt Huang acted like this, the more Gu Yuqing shrank in her heart and said hurriedly: "I went for a walk in the small garden yesterday and found this by accident."

Of course Gu Yuqing did not dare to say that it was "Tianji" who guided her there.

She was the only one who could hear what "Tian Ji" said. If she told Aunt Huang that she was holding a jade pendant to guide her to explore the secret, she would probably immediately invite a Taoist priest to exorcise ghosts and evil spirits for her.

Fortunately, Nanny Huang did not dwell on the process of discovering the box. She just stared at the box, took a deep breath, and sighed quietly. The expression on her face changed several times, and finally she seemed to have spent a lot of effort to make up her mind. Said: "When Madam was young, she had a good relationship with a girl from Miaojiang, and she could be considered as a best friend."

Gu Yuqing originally thought she would hear a story about a man. After all, what was in the box... Unexpectedly, Nanny Huang opened her mouth to mention that she thought she was a girl, and she became more and more curious.

Aunt Huang's eyes were a little wandering. She couldn't help but half-squint her eyes as she recalled the past, and said carefully: "Although that girl is from the Miao border, she has settled in Kyoto. When talking about the process of getting married with my wife, she was a bit indifferent. It means we don’t know each other.”

Gu Yuqing knew that her mother, who came from a Gusu family, had extremely good martial arts. She had seen her mother wield a sword, and she was really brave, heroic and charming.

My mother said that my aunt's martial arts skills were even more superb, but unfortunately...she had never seen her before.

Memories of the past drifted through Gu Yuqing's mind in bits and pieces, and Nanny Huang's hoarse voice rang in her ears, "At that time, my wife first married the Marquis and came to Kyoto from Qibei. She was not too accustomed to the life in Kyoto. , and besides, I don’t have many friends here, so I’m bored in the house every day.”

"My wife is bright and flamboyant. She was originally a rose with thorns. After being dull for a long time, she turned into a wilting greenhouse grass. The Marquis felt distressed when he saw it, so he took his wife to Xishan to play on a day off. Encountered a bully on the road Bullying the people, how could you ignore Madam’s temper and whip her whip at the bully’s face?”

"It happened that the Miao girl was also passing by here. She thought her mother was bullying her. Regardless of right and wrong, she picked up the long sword on her waist and swung it at her mother. The old slave was naturally anxious when he saw it, but the Marquis stopped him. I just said that my mother hasn't waved the long whip for a long time, let her take it as a vent, she really can't beat him, and it's not too late for us to help."

"The Marquis is really doting on Madam." Speaking of this, Aunt Huang sighed tremblingly, and swallowed back the rest of the sentence because she was afraid of upsetting Gu Yuqing.

It's a pity that my wife was short-lived and passed away early.

"To say that the girl is really good at martial arts. After fighting with the madam for a full time, they still couldn't tell the difference. It was the girl's family who asked the onlookers around in time to find out the truth. Stopped her in time."

"She knew she had misunderstood her mother. One moment, the two of them were fighting to the death, and the next moment they were clasping fists and apologizing. They were sincere. My wife immediately appreciated her free and easy attitude."

"Later, during a banquet at Prince Duan's Mansion, Madam unexpectedly met her at Prince Duan's Mansion, and found out that she was a concubine of Prince Duan. Because of their affinity, she got Princess Duan's permission, so she often visited Chi Nanhou. In the house, from competing in martial arts to chatting about household matters, I gradually talked about everything with my wife."

Speaking of this, Aunt Huang's face suddenly changed, and she said with unusual solemnity: "As everyone knows, you know people but don't know their hearts. Madam thinks of her free and easy personality and her martial arts skills. She never dislikes her status as a concubine. She even sympathizes with her as a concubine out of pity." , she was quite taken care of, and she actually started to care about Mr. Gu."

"It's just a pretense to come to the house to talk to my wife, but it's true that I want to meet Mr. Gu by chance."

When Gu Yuqing heard this, she was immediately shocked, "Was mother angry at that time?"

My mother's proud temperament was so betrayed by the person who handed her a handkerchief. I was afraid that she would be tempted to kill her out of anger.

Aunt Huang said angrily: "Of course she is very angry. Fortunately, the Marquis was considerate and handled the matter properly."

"What about the Miao woman? What happened to her later?" In his past and present memories, Gu Yuqing didn't even remember that there was a Miao woman in Prince Duan's palace.

Although the people of this dynasty are open-minded, the fact that the royal prince wants to take a Miao woman as his concubine is something that cannot be concealed.

Aunt Huang said: "Why do you need to take action? Prince Duan will just let someone sink her into the pond." When talking about the death of the Miao woman, Aunt Huang's deep and old eyes showed a hint of joy.

Gu Yuqing listened, but felt that the matter was not accidental.

Not to mention that the concubine was from Miaojiang, she was from Prince Duan's palace, but a concubine was able to win the nod of Princess Duan, who was always jealous, and agreed that she would go out to meet guests, and she would go out frequently. It doesn't make sense.

Coupled with the heinous deeds Prince Duan had done to the Gusu family, Gu Yuqing had to think more deeply.

The Miao woman must have deliberately approached her mother. As for why she wanted to cling to her father, she had no idea for a moment. She just had a strong feeling in the dark that all her actions were ordered by Prince Duan. for.

Let's talk about the past, except for the occasional "crackling" sound of candles bursting in the room, the air was extremely silent.

After a while, Gu Yuqing pointed to the totem on the box and asked Aunt Huang, "Where have you seen such a totem?"
