Pastoral Jiaoyi's mother and father are here

Chapter 226 Grandmother died (Part [-])
Next, Dongfang Xian faced Shang Nangong Che, one was the charming and enchanting Fiery Rose, and the other was the proud and holy Snow Mountain Ice Lotus.

The moment Nangong Che took off the veil, everyone held their breath.

Gu Xiangsi has seen many beauties of all colors, but she has never seen such a beautiful and refined woman.

Although Nanyan Kingdom is a country of blue-eyed people, their facial features are not exotic high noses and deep eyes, but the same as the people of Xihe Kingdom, their facial features are very soft, paired with a pair of blue eyes, it is absolutely like A fairy who fell into the mortal world.

Nangong Che is performing the most traditional dance of worshiping the gods in Nanyan Kingdom. She is wearing an elegant white tulle dress, and a white pearl gauze hat is covered with light gauze. She wears golden bell chains on her wrists and ankles. With a little cinnabar, she sang the divine songs in Nanyan Mandarin, which sounded like the sound of nature.

Gu Xiangsi watched Dongfang Xian join Nangong Che's dance. If Nangong Che was the girl who presented the most holy and pious singing and dancing to the gods, then Dongfang Xian was the demon girl who lured the high gods into hell.

Gu Xiangsi had never seen such a dance where fire and ice blended together, the sacred and the evil.

This is a shocking beauty, and it is also a battle between gods and demons.

Dongfang Xian held an exquisite magic flute inlaid with black jade inlaid with gold leaf patterns on her red lips. When her red dress twirled fiercely like fire, she revealed a pair of white and tender jade feet on her ankles, but she was wearing two gold snake anklets. The spitting golden snake letter and blood-red eyes seem to match the sound of the flute she plays as she keeps flying and spinning, making a trembling sound, which is very charming.

Nangong Che's ethereal singing and sacred dance seemed to suddenly suppress the magic power created by Dongfang Xian, so that everyone no longer struggled in pain, but gradually became peaceful and serene.

Gu Xiangsi asked Xilingyan to bring the two children over, and she used the silver needle she carried with her to close the children's hearing, so that they would not look up to watch the singing and dancing, and eat obediently beside their parents.

Bao Zhu didn't understand anything, she stood beside A Niang, eating snacks with A Niang, being cared by A Niang lovingly, she was very happy.

Although Lord Xiling had a lot of doubts in his heart, he still listened to his father and ate with his head down, and didn't care about anything.

Xiling Yan saw that Gu Xiangsi's eyes were very clear, and he was not at all confused by the music and dance, so he could safely go to Li Mingjing to break the confusion between the two.

Li Mingjing was also confused, but fortunately Xilingyan came over and patted him awake, so he followed Xilingyan up and walked over, each of them took a musical instrument.

Xiling Yan took a lyre, and Li Mingjing a hole flute.

When the sound of the zither sounded and the flute came together, gradually everyone regained their sanity.

Lan Jue has been paying attention to Gu Xiangsi, even people like Dongfang Ao have fallen into a dream, why is there nothing wrong with her?Isn't it said that pregnant women are the weakest, unable to withstand stimulation and fright at all?
Originally, he wanted to stop Che'er from continuing to compete with Dongfang Xian, but now he is no longer needed.

The corner of Dongfang Xian's mouth was bleeding and he fell to the ground in disarray, and the black jade flute in his hand fell to pieces, it was a pity for this exquisite black jade flute.

Nangong Che also spun a few times, her steps were chaotic, she was supported by her second brother Lan Jue in time, and he tapped behind him a few times, so she was not injured like Dongfang Xian, who was attacked by Xiling Yan's sound mixed with internal force very heavy.

Bei Gongzhen also woke up from his confusion. He looked at Li Mingjing who was holding a flute, blinked his eyes and asked, "Brother Mingjing, when did you go to play the flute?"

Li Mingjing looked at Bei Gongzhen with a puzzled expression, shook his head at her, then turned his head to look at Nangong Che and Dongfang Xian, and said coldly with his thin lips: "Today is the gathering of the four countries, all of you sitting here are important ministers of the four countries. And family members. What's more, the envoys of the four countries and my empress Xihe are here, and the two of you are doing this, aren't you offending our Majesty and the envoys of the three countries?"

Xiling Yan would never allow anyone to act presumptuously in the palace of the Xihe Kingdom, what's more, these two women almost hurt Ah Chu, his nephew whom he had protected so much, the king of their Xihe Kingdom.

"Ah!" Both Nangong Che and Dongfang Xian were shocked, because Xiling Yan actually used the sound blade to cut off the earrings they were wearing, and felt the sound blade across the neck like a wind knife. It's just a bad feeling, which makes people don't want to experience it again in this life.

Xiling Yan got up and handed the piano to the sober musician. He walked over full of hostility. Seeing that Xiling Chu was fine, he looked at Lan Jue. His thin lips opened and closed, and his voice was cold and murderous. Said: "King Nanrong, take good care of your sister, if she dares to behave like this again, this king will never let her go lightly next time."

"Yes, Lan Jue will take good care of my sister, and will not disturb the king of the town anymore." Lan Jue slightly bowed her head to apologize to the other party, Che'er has gone too far this time.After all, this is the country of Xihe. She and Dongfang Xian are so presumptuous, how can Xiling Yan not be angry?
They all know that Xiling Yan has always protected Xiling Chu. It can be said that Xiling Chu can sit on the throne of the Xihe Kingdom so firmly. It is all thanks to Xiling Yan's support and escort all the way. To lose any infamy is to gain the reputation of a sage king.

Because of this, Xilingyan did not allow anyone to offend the monarch of their Xihe country, and he took him by the hand and walked to his nephew today.

Dongfang Ao saw Xiling Yan looking at him, his eyes met coldly, lacking in blood, his lips as pale as apricot blossoms lightly opened and said: "I will punish Dongfang Immortal, and I will also punish His Majesty Xihuang and Zhenguo. A satisfactory explanation from the prince."

The daughters of the two courtiers of Dongyue Kingdom, under Dongfang Ao's eyes, they have stepped forward to help Dongfang Xian up.

When Xilingyan came to the two countries, he would punish those who made mistakes by himself, so he didn't go deep into pursuing them.Facing the king's seat in Xiling Chu, he bowed his hands and said calmly: "Your Majesty, the banquet can continue."

"Well, please take a seat, Uncle Emperor." Isn't Xilingchu still worried?If it wasn't for the uncle's presence today, he would have died, and he didn't know how he died.

But today is the gathering of the four nations after all, for the sake of the overall situation, he has to forgive Nangong Che and Dongfang Xian magnanimously for their nonsense.

If it wasn't for the sake of the overall situation, the emperor wouldn't be able to let Nangong Che and Dongfang Xian go so easily.

well!They are all for the sake of the overall situation, and they can only wrong their own people.

The banquet of the Four Kingdoms continued, the musicians played and sang, the dancers danced gracefully and lightly, the atmosphere was peaceful, and the tense atmosphere before was gone.

However, Gu Xiangsi was worried that the child would leave her side. These foreign princesses, princes and so on can do magic tricks. How would she know if they would go crazy again to confuse everyone and frighten her children?

Seeing that she insisted on bringing the child with her, Xiling Yan didn't stop him, but asked the maid to move the two chairs at the back, so that the family of four could make do with one seat.

Bei Gongli's face also became very ugly, he secretly clenched his sister's hand, and looked at Nangong Che with cold eyes, this woman is really more disgusting than Dongfang Xian.

"Second brother, I'm fine, but I was a little dizzy just now, and it's much better now." Bei Gongzhen also doesn't like Nangong Che, this woman has such a clear purpose, and she is not a fool, how can she not see it at all?
"It's a good thing that you don't get involved in these things. It's just... alas!" Bei Gongli naturally didn't want anything to happen to his sister, a compatriot, but if the sister really stayed in Xihe Country and married As a courtier, it's not easy for him to explain to the queen mother and the emperor's brother when he goes back.

"Second brother, when you go back, tell the emperor to let the queen mother and Uncle Ata stay together! Life is only a few decades, why bother so much? Is face important, or the happiness of relatives?" Bei Gongzhen With the support of Gu Xiangsi, a bosom friend, she became more determined to let her mother remarry.

There are many disputes in front of the widow's door, why are there so many?Isn't it because there is no man, people look down on them, or even be looked down upon?

Of course, their mother's queen is the queen mother of a country, so no one dares to underestimate their mother's queen, after all, her status is precious!

But no matter how honorable she is, the queen mother is also a human being!How can I be so lonely all the time?

Therefore, she still wanted her mother to marry Uncle Atta instead.

Bei Gongli was drinking from a glass, he needed to be quiet, this matter was beyond his acceptable range.

A four-nation banquet, full of excitement and thrills,
Fortunately, it ended smoothly in the end.

In the end, it was a real acrobatic meal. The dishes were delicate and the portions were small, and everyone really ate a lot.

Because the dishes are not authentic, all the imperial chefs cook in the dome built. Because the distance is not too far, the dishes are still steaming.

This is the first time these people have had a hot palace banquet for many years.

After eating and drinking, it will be afternoon.

After watching the singing and dancing for a while, they all dispersed.

There are three joys at this banquet today.

Yile is, Princess Tianyue of Beiju Kingdom has taken a fancy to Li Mingjing, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials.

Er Leshi, Princess Tianyue and Concubine Zhen all agreed to remarry their widowed mother.

San Leshi, Nangong Che and Dongfang Xiandouwu were finally wiped out by the king of the town, Xi Lingyan, and the minister of officials, Li Mingjing.

This palace banquet of the Four Kingdoms Gathering was even more exciting than the previous ones!

……

After the banquet of the Four Kingdoms, the three musics were spread.

"Our Prince Zhen and Master Li are very powerful, no matter what kind of goddess or witch, if you see these two, you have to bow your head and bow your head!" As soon as this man started talking, the big guys gathered together and started talking.

Of course, the most discussed one is not the matter of Princess Tianyue showing her love to Li Mingjing, but the matter of Gu Xiangsi and Bei Gongzhen wanting their widow mother to remarry.

This is a great anecdote. After all, they have lived for decades, and they have never seen a daughter who wants to help her mother find a husband to remarry!
But Gu Xiangsi was not joking, she really wanted to find a husband for her mother, and this was also to attract someone!

Feng Qiji did want to visit Ning Yezi after hearing about Gu Yun's death, but there were so many things going on in the south of the Yangtze River that he couldn't do without him, and he couldn't even arrive in Xilan City to attend the Four Kingdoms Gathering.

Gu Xiangsi's side was really busy. She called a lot of matchmakers and asked them to pick out some people of the right age and good conduct for her.

These matchmakers are the ones who get red envelopes on both sides.After all, if Ning Yezi remarried, let alone making irresponsible remarks, just talking about the father-in-law of the king of this town, that person doesn't want to be that person?

What's more, Ning Yezi is a stunning beauty, with white hair and red face, so she has a special charm.

Such beauty and status, and even the beauty of power and interests can be obtained, who don't want it?
Some widowers are a little lucky. Fortunately, they have been delayed and not continued. Otherwise, wouldn't such a beautiful event be missed?
Each matchmaker has prepared a lot of pictures, which contain various introductions to these people's family background and status, and even family members.

Gu Xiangsi asked Chu Qing and Fei Shu to put away all the portraits, and looking at the group of matchmakers who could speak well, she smiled and said to Yan Yan: "You are all famous matchmakers in Xilan City, so the person you are looking for is naturally not bad. Yes. However, I still want to hear everyone tell the truth, do these people really meet the requirements of this princess?"

The six or seven matchmakers present could no longer nod their heads when they saw the eyes of the Princess Zhen smiling at them.

Sitting on the Arhat bed in the flower hall, Gu Xiangsi put one hand on her belly, looked at them and smiled and said, "Before, I taught two people a lesson, I think you well-informed matchmakers have heard of it too, right? Haha , I don’t like to be fooled by people, and these people in the King’s Palace are not just for nothing, I want to know the facts, and I can find out on the same day, believe it or not?”

The seven matchmakers were all frightened with cold sweat on their foreheads. Naturally, they had heard about Lin Xu and Zhao Wenjing. This concubine of Zhen Wang who always smiles at others is really cruel.

Lin Xu has now left Xilan City without a trace.

Zhao Wenjing's reputation has been damaged, let alone a first-rate family, even a second-rate family will look down on her as a daughter-in-law.

In this way, if Zhao Wenjing wanted to marry in Xilan City, she could only choose from a third-rate family.

But with the arrogance of General Zhao's wife and Zhao Wenjing, they may not be able to look down on third-rate people!

However, this is not completely impossible, mainly depends on Queen Zhao.

If Empress Zhao is willing to help her half-sister, Zhao Wenjing will still not marry too badly in the future. If she can't marry the eldest son of a first-class family, she must be able to marry such a good husband-in-law as the second son.

But Empress Zhao has always been at odds with her stepmother, and is not close to her two younger siblings, Zhao Shaojie and Zhao Wenjing. It's hard to say whether she will offend Gu Xiangsi because of Zhao Wenjing.

These matchmakers are all very transparent, indeed!In order to help her son win over the King's Mansion, Queen Zhao would not offend her sixteenth aunt by helping Zhao Wenjing.

Because in her heart, although Aunt Sixteen was not a few years older than her, she cared for her like a mother. During her pregnancy, thanks to Aunt Sixteen's help, she did not have any heart problems during pregnancy.

Therefore, whether it's for profit or family affection, Empress Zhao will only stand by Gu Xiangsi's side, and will not help her stepmother's mother and daughter.

Some of the seven matchmakers couldn't hold on any longer, they knelt and kowtowed to beg the princess to spare her life, and said everything they should say and what they shouldn't say, they knew everything and said everything.

Gu Xiangsi saw that these matchmakers had told the truth, so she didn't make things difficult for them.

One person rewarded ten taels of silver, and then sent them all away.

Not long after the matchmaker left, Zhao Sheng hurried over with a complicated expression, entered the flower hall and saluted, "Princess, Mrs. Gu Guo, has passed away."

"Dead?" Gu Xiangsi didn't have much reaction to Mrs. Gu's death, and only told Zhao Sheng: "Get everything ready and go to mourn tomorrow."

"Yes." Zhao Sheng bowed and saluted, wanted to leave, turned around and left, but turned his head and asked for instructions: "Princess, can you tell Madam Xiangjiang County about this?"

"No need! Mother is no longer the daughter-in-law of the Gu family, and the old lady is no longer her mother-in-law. It would be inappropriate for her to go." Gu Xiangsi's status as a granddaughter cannot be avoided, but her mother has nothing to do with the Gu family. , and why do you want to attend Mrs. Gu's funeral?

"Yes." Zhao Sheng saluted, and this time he really resigned.

Chu Qing was a little worried about Wang Hao's body, so she said softly, "Wang Hao, let's go back and rest for a while."

"En." Gu Xiangsi nodded lightly, and with Chuqing and Fei Shu supporting her, she walked slowly to the outside of the flower hall.

Chu Qing shook Fei Shu, the princess didn't need to say "sorrow and resignation", because... the Gu family was sorry for the mother and daughter of the concubine, and the concubine was still willing to help Ningguo's mansion, which was already lenient enough.

Now that Mrs. Gu is gone, is it a relief?
Before Gong Jueyu came to Xilan City and made a big disturbance in Ningguo Mansion, Mrs. Gu had a stroke because of this, and she was bedridden for such a long time, isn't it a kind of torture that would make life worse than death?
It doesn't matter if you die now, everyone is liberated.

That is, the uncle of the second room and the fourth young master Gu are going to suffer again.

I guess it hasn't been long since I just arrived in Saibei, right?This time, Wanshuiqianshan is going to come back for the funeral.

……

Lord Xiling also heard that their great-grandmother had passed away. He was worried that his mother would be in a bad mood, so he brought his younger sister to live in Bibo.

Gu Xiangsi had just returned to Mingyue Garden, when she saw their brother and sister coming holding hands, her heart warmed, she naturally understood that these two sensible children came to comfort her.

"Aniang is not sad. My brother said that my great-grandmother went down to find my grandfather, because my great-grandmother missed her child too." Ever since Baozhu knew her mother was pregnant with her younger brother, she would never throw herself into her mother's arms again. He walked over carefully, and gently stroked his little brother in his mother's belly with his little hands.

She really hoped that her brother would come out to play with her soon, because her brother always taught her to read and write, so he rarely played with her!

"Baozhu is right. Your great-grandmother... just went down to find her own child." Gu Xiangsi held Baozhu in one hand. Mrs. Gu may have been a loving mother all her life, but she is also a mother who loves her children. One point, worthy of sympathy.

The white-haired man sent the black-haired man away, and the two sons were sent back and forth.

How can such a human tragedy not make people feel sad?
