famous eldest daughter

Chapter 611
Gu Yuqing raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a smile. Her bright eyes met the grandma's shining eyes, and her thoughts moved slightly.

What she asked was: "At the moment, who is in charge of the Sixth Palace in the palace, or the queen?" Her tone clearly showed that she hated the queen's tightness. Gu Yuqing tried to figure out her thoughts and briefly explained the things in the palace that were not secrets.

"The Queen has been grounded by Your Majesty for making a mistake."

Because he didn't know whether the grandmother in front of him was really Concubine Mei, Gu Yuqing did not mention Concubine Hui rashly.

Gu Yuqing trailed off, but before she could see her grandma's reaction, a crisp "bang" sound suddenly came from her ears. The sound came from inside, which was the sound of teacups falling to the ground.

Gu Yuqing's eyes immediately flickered, and his gaze suddenly fell towards the half-closed carved wooden door inside.

There are people in the house!
Who was that person and why did she have such a big reaction when she told her that the queen was grounded?

From the moment she came in, the only one active in the room was the old woman. Obviously, the people in the room didn't want her to know their existence.

But now, when the tea cup fell to the ground, everything was exposed, which was enough to show what kind of huge waves the words she just said had set off in the hearts of the people in the room.

Why should she avoid it? Why should she panic and fail now?
Gu Yuqing frowned slightly in surprise and suspicion, and a bold yet well-founded thought came to her: Could it be that the person in the room is Concubine Mei?

This thought, like a bolt of lightning, struck Gu Yuqing's mind, "Grandma, the person in the house is the owner of this jade pendant, right?"

The hand that squeezed the handkerchief tightened again and again, Gu Yuqing pressed the turbulent surge in her heart and said as if it was a joke.

The grandma, I don't know whether she was shocked by Gu Yuqing's words or the sudden sound in the room. The moment Gu Yuqing finished speaking, a trace of panic and uneasiness flashed on her face. However, this panic and uneasiness was also caused by Gu Yuqing's words about the queen. Being grounded, but with a strong sense of pleasure!
Seeing the change of emotions in grandma's face and eyes, Gu Yuqing struck while the iron was hot and said: "Since the owner of the jade pendant is in the house, I think it would be better to meet him in person. I can trouble grandma to introduce her to him."

Gu Yuqing's words were deliberate and not at all the tone that an ordinary village woman should have in her words.

What kind of notification, what kind of introduction, even if it is not within the palace, such words are still used by the female relatives of wealthy officials. How can such words be used among villagers.

"There is no one in the house, maybe my cat woke up and accidentally knocked over the water glass on the table." Granny heard this, but she flatly refused, insisting that there was no one in the house.

Gu Yuqing naturally didn't believe what the grandmother said. However, since she entered the door, the people in the house could avoid her. At this moment, Gu Yuqing naturally didn't really think that she could see her. What she said just now was just to test the grandmother. Just a reaction.

I want to see what her attitude is under such a tone of voice!

Sure enough...this grandma is no ordinary village woman.

What made Gu Yuqing even more distraught was how quickly this grandma's emotions calmed down. She originally wanted to strike while the iron was hot, and while her grandma's emotions couldn't help but show up, she said something sharp to make her mood fluctuate even more, so that clues could be revealed.

Unexpectedly, the grandma suddenly lost all her expression, and her face returned to that half-smiling look that looked kind and loving but was actually full of energy.

A smile like that is something that only a few people can achieve.

With her mind restrained, Gu Yuqing did not reveal her grandma's answer. As if she believed her, she gently flicked the emerald green bracelet on her wrist and said, "Grandma, do you have any other questions to ask?"

Grandma said: "Your Majesty has established a prince?"

Gu Yuqing's heart moved.

Another tough question!

Shaking his head slightly, he said with a mixture of truth and falsehood: "Your Majesty has not appointed a crown prince yet, but with the current situation in the court, everyone feels that it must be His Highness the Third Prince."

As Gu Yuqing spoke, her eyes were fixed on the grandmother's cheek, trying to capture her thoughts as they flew by.

How could she, a little girl, be allowed to make arrogant comments about the affairs of the imperial court, let alone the important matter of establishing a crown prince? However, Gu Yuqing really wanted to know how much this grandma knew about the affairs of the imperial palace and what her attitude was, so she added the last sentence.

Sure enough, as soon as her words fell, the old woman frowned and couldn't help but mutter, "Why is it him!"

The voice was extremely low and light, almost a whisper.

If Gu Yuqing hadn't held his breath and focused his gaze for a moment, Gu Yuqing almost missed this quick sentence, but he caught it and asked politely, "What? Grandma thinks there must be someone else?"

While Gu Yuqing was speaking, grandma raised her eyes and looked at Gu Yuqing. It seemed that although her eyes were looking at her, her mind was still thinking about what happened just now.

Gu Yuqing then said: "Now His Highness the Second Prince has been beheaded for committing a crime, and His Highness the Fourth Prince is an idle man with no knowledge and skills. The only one who is of the right age is His Highness the Third Prince. Could it not be him, or His Highness the First Prince?" ?”

Gu Yuqing said the last sentence extremely loudly.

She didn't just tell the grandmother, but also the people in the house.

If the person in the room is really Concubine Mei or someone who is inextricably related to Concubine Mei, she will never remain indifferent or unresponsive when she suddenly mentions the eldest prince.

His eyes were fixed on Grandma for a moment, but his ears were bent, listening to the sounds in the house at any time.

However, after Gu Yuqing finished speaking, except for the sudden loss of color on Grandma's expression, the room was silent and no sound was made.

Is there really no one in the room... Gu Yuqing shook her head, her strong intuition telling her that there must be someone in this room.

Since he didn't hear the expected sound, Gu Yuqing focused all his attention on grandma's shocked face.

"Have you ever heard of the eldest prince Xiao Yan? When he was alive, he was the most favored prince. If he were still alive, I am afraid that this throne would belong to him..."

If the person in the house is really Concubine Mei, and this grandma is really the maid of Concubine Mei who disappeared in the palace, what Gu Yuqing said at this moment is undoubtedly cruel.

But she couldn't help it.

Such a shocking secret was like a giant python that had been drunk with realgar wine, rolling in her heart. How could she resist saying anything and doing nothing.

If it could be verified that Concubine Mei was really alive, she would do her best to make her live a comfortable life.

Although he doesn't remember anything, Gu Yuqing clearly remembers the bond between his mother and Concubine Mei.

Gu Yuqing spoke, looking at the grandmother opposite her without moving her eyes, but before she could finish her words, her voice was interrupted by another sudden voice.

"Ape, see you off!"

The voice is hoarse and strongly choked. It is a female voice. You can tell the age by listening to the voice, but you can roughly estimate that the speaker is around 40 years old.
