happy match

Yes, this is really just the beginning.In a few months, there will be the best chance to deal with Shen Qiuyu...

Ye Qinglan thought for a while, then said in a low voice: "In the previous life, the prince had no children, so Shen Qiuyu deliberately planned to give birth to a child in order to strengthen her position in the mansion. However, now the prince has two sons and a daughter. Shen Qiuyu will not Would you take the risk of making such a move?"

"Of course." Gu Xinian's tone was very certain: "The Crown Princess is weak, and Concubine Lin has fallen out of favor, as long as she 'gives birth' to a son, relying on the Crown Prince's love for her, maybe this child will be the future Prince. Since she has the ambition to become the queen of the Eastern Palace in the future, she will naturally try her best to have a son."

This remark makes sense.Ye Qinglan nodded in agreement, and then deliberately smiled and joked: "It really is an unforgettable old lover, you know her very well!"

Gu Xinian glanced at her sideways, with a warning look in his eyes.

Ye Qinglan couldn't help laughing already.After a while, the topic changed again: "Tomorrow is the court meeting!"

Gu Xinian hummed, and said meaningfully: "Tomorrow's court meeting must be very lively."

He was half right.The first official court meeting after the new year was indeed very lively.The emperor dismissed the crown prince from the post of military governor, and the third prince took over the post gracefully.For a while, the spring breeze was full of joy and scenery.

In contrast, the prince is a bit bleak.After being reprimanded by the emperor without saying a word, his position was also taken away, and he lost all face.He was also ordered to study in the mansion to cultivate himself.It is conceivable that in the next period of time.The Prince's faction will not be too active.

Coincidentally, the third prince has just taken over the post of military governor, and has not formally taken up his post yet.The good news came from the border. A general surnamed Liao led the army and won a big victory.The long-lost victory lifted everyone's spirits, even the emperor was overjoyed.

Next, good news came frequently.The war at the border took an earth-shaking turn overnight.In just a few days, the prestige of the third prince reached its peak.Some people even began to secretly plan to write a letter to please change the crown prince.

The prince's party fell into a state of panic, and some of them who were not firm in their stance had already begun to secretly "groom" the third prince's party.Although these are low-level officials.The backbone of the princelings has not wavered.But if things go on like this, it's hard to say where the situation will develop...

The most worried person is the prince himself.He first convened all the staff in the mansion to discuss countermeasures, and then held a private banquet, and basically all the most important figures from the princeling faction came.Of course Gu Xinian was among them.

Everyone is worried, you have said a lot to me.You can think about it carefully.There are no useful countermeasures at all.

Gu Xinian sat there quietly the whole time, without making a sound from the beginning to the end.

The prince took the initiative to open his mouth and asked: "Xinian, do you have any thoughts in your mind, why don't you let me know."

Gu Xinian said with a faint smile: "Your Highness, please forgive me for speaking bluntly. Since the emperor ordered you to study in the mansion and cultivate your moral character, then you should not make too many actions, so as not to make the emperor feel unhappy." Sometimes, talk more and do more. There are many.Not necessarily a good thing.It is better to wait and see the changes, and responding to all changes with the same is the way to protect yourself.

The prince is not a fool, he just got flustered and lost his sense of control for a while.Being reminded by Gu Xinian, he suddenly thought about it.

The others also calmed down, carefully pondering and savoring these two sentences, the more they thought about it, the more they felt it made sense.

It is not a trivial matter to abolish the crown prince, even if the crown prince is mediocre.But there is no loss in virtue, and no major mistakes have been made.The emperor will never abolish the prince easily.Right now, the third prince is aggressive.Everywhere to build momentum for the third prince, it is clear that he wants to force the prince to take action.As long as the prince makes any changes, it is easy to be caught by someone who wants to hurt his feet.At that time, it is really at stake.As for now, although the days are tougher, it is far from the most dangerous moment...

"You're right." The prince calmed down and said slowly: "I really shouldn't do anything now, and I can't do anything. Not only the third brother, maybe the father also wants to use this matter to test my character. If I can't hold my breath, my father will definitely be very disappointed in me."

Gu Xinian nodded approvingly.Compared with the mediocrity and impulsiveness of the previous life, the temperament of the prince in this life has also changed slowly.Being able to say these words is enough to see his progress.

Why is the emperor always picky and dissatisfied with the prince in every possible way and even deliberately suppressed the prince?Because the prince is the crown prince, he will sit in the golden palace to manage the courtiers and rule the world in the future.If you are impetuous and can't bear even a little setback, you are not qualified for this position.Therefore, the emperor's strictness towards him is pity for him, and it is also a test and temper for him.If the crown prince behaves inappropriately and disappoints the emperor, then it will be really bad...

After the prince figured this out, his mentality became much calmer.

After leaving the Prince's Mansion, Gu Xinian did not return to the mansion in time, but quietly went to the Yipin Building instead.

It was nearly midnight at this time, and the guests in the first floor building had basically left. In a private room on the second floor, Shen Changan had been waiting for a full night.Although anxious, he just held back his temper and continued to wait.

When the knock on the door sounded, Shen Changan finally breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly got up and opened the door: "Brother Gu, you are finally here."

Now that the status has been decided, even if Gu Xinian dislikes Shen Changan, he can only helplessly accept this future brother-in-law.It's just that there is still no smiling face: "Did General Shen send a letter back?"

Shen Chang'an nodded, took out the letter from his pocket and gave it to Gu Xinian.

Gu Xinian opened the letter as usual, and after reading it once, the corners of his lips curled up slightly, and a trace of satisfaction and joy flashed in his eyes.Then slowly lit the letter.

Shen Chang'an knew that it was unlikely that Gu Xinian would answer his question, so he couldn't help but ask, "What are my father and you discussing?"

As always, Gu Xinian ignored him, took out the reply letter he had prepared long ago, and urged: "This letter must be delivered to General Shen as soon as possible. After returning, have someone deliver it overnight."

Shen Chang'an nodded without hesitation, but still refused to give up and asked: "Before, I was defeated again and again, why are we winning again these days?" Those civil servants were only interested in being happy, and did not think of the subtlety of this at all.He had been on the battlefield and led soldiers in battles, so he naturally sensed that something was wrong.

Gu Xinian responded with a half-smile: "Of course it's because the third prince is able to supervise the army. These days, haven't you heard the praises from above?"

Shen Chang'an snorted: "It's fine to fool a layman with such words, but it's not so easy to deceive me. The battlefield is thousands of miles away, and the battle situation and what kind of strategies to formulate are all discussed by the commander and several important generals. Far away in the capital, send out some orders without pain, and by the time they are actually delivered to the border, even the day lily will be completely cold. It’s worthless!"

Although the words are rough, the truth is very thorough.

Gu Xinian silently gave a thumbs up in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face, he still smiled lightly and said, "What's the use of you thinking so, all the courtiers and the emperor have credited this credit to the third prince. "

Shen Changan rolled his eyes, and said the following rebellious words: "I really don't know what the emperor thinks. You can't even see the obvious facts. The prince was not to blame for the unfavorable war before. But now the situation has turned so much It's so exaggerated so quickly, but it's strange... Wait, this is what you and my father planned secretly!" When he said the last sentence, he couldn't help but raise the volume.

Gu Xinian frowned and glared at him.

Shen Changan immediately lowered the volume consciously, and said with a smile: "I was excited for a while, and my voice was inevitably louder than usual. It was definitely not intentional."

Gu Xiqing snorted: "I'll take a step first. In order not to arouse suspicion, you can go quietly through the back door of the restaurant later."

Shen Chang'an obediently agreed, and watched Gu Xinian go out.When Gu Xinian's figure disappeared before his eyes, Shen Chang'an suddenly woke up.Gu Xinian hasn't said whether his guess just now was right!

Brainstorming is really not something Shen Changan is good at. After racking his brains for a long time, he still couldn't figure out the mystery, so he simply didn't think about it anymore.He left neatly through the back door of the restaurant.

The task of sending messages from it is more suitable for him. As for the use of brains to calculate others, just leave it to the eldest brother!

……

Ye Qinglan was used to Gu Xinian returning late, so she sat under the lamp and read a book leisurely, waiting for Gu Xinian to come back.

Familiar footsteps sounded at the door, Ye Qinglan raised the corners of her lips, and stood up to greet her with a sweet smile.

After a busy day, all the intrigue and fatigue disappeared instantly when I saw that sweet smile.A soft warmth suddenly rose in Gu Xinian's heart, he took a step forward, and hugged his beautiful wife tightly into his arms.

Ye Qinglan snuggled into his arms submissively, and asked in a low voice, "Where did you drink again today?"

"In the prince's mansion." Gu Xinian did not hide it from her: "It has not been half a month since the third prince took over the task of overseeing the army, and there have been three good news from the border. There has been a lot of noise from the third prince and his party, and the prince has also panicked. That’s why we were all called over to discuss countermeasures.”

Ye Qinglan asked curiously: "What about now, has any countermeasure been discussed?"

Gu Xinian smiled lightly: "Respond to all changes with the same!"

Ye Qinglan savored these few words silently, and couldn't help sighing: "That's true, doing nothing right now is the best way. The third prince just took over the task of overseeing the army, and the border gates are passing good news. It depends on this matter." It’s a good thing, actually, it’s not necessarily the case when you think about it carefully. If the emperor doesn’t get suspicious, he’s been sitting on the dragon chair for so many years.” (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for it.
