Chapter 280 Engagement Banquet

Those who don't know about this matter, there are two people in Jinchu.

"Bai Lu."

Gu Qingsheng said to Bai Lu who was pouring tea for him
"Is there anything going on outside today?"

At that time, it was just dawn, Bai Lu served breakfast, and replied as if nothing had happened.

"The slave girl didn't go out today, so nothing should have happened. If there is really something big, I believe the prince will come and tell the princess."

"Yesterday, the son went to the palace to intercede with the queen mother on behalf of the princess, but the queen mother refused very decisively."

"The queen mother loves the son the most on weekdays. It seems that this time she has really made up her mind."

One is her own disfigured granddaughter, and the other is a granddaughter who has a relationship with the disfigured murderer.

The palms and backs of the hands are full of flesh, even if Gu Qingsheng once saved the empress, this kindness can save her from dying, but if the empress finds out that she has contact with those people again, I am afraid that even the empress dowager will not be able to protect herself.

And according to Gu Miao's temperament, if she caught her again, she might say that Suhuai was instigated by her, and she was the culprit.

The queen mother must have thought of these things.

Gu Fengnan was rejected by the Queen Mother, he must have thought of talking about something outside to relieve himself.

Sigh
"Okay, I see. Is there any news from the National Teacher?"

"Yes."

Bailu nodded
"The national teacher said that he arranges it freely."

In the front hall, Duan Wang and Gu Fengnan were chatting.

"Don't tell your sister about those things outside."

Duan Wang took a sip of tea, said to Gu Fengnan, and put down the tea again.

"It's unlucky for a woman to jump into the river. If you tell your sister about it, it will make her even more depressed."

"She was in a bad mood when she was locked up at home. Let's think about everything before we talk about it."

"Tonight is Gu Miao's engagement banquet, and she will enter the palace tonight, so go and prepare."

Although he felt strange about Duan Wang's words, Gu Fengnan still nodded.
"Understood father."

Looking at the back of Gu Fengnan's departure, King Duan sighed, unfolding the letter sent by the Queen Mother this morning in his arms.
"Don't let Chang Le know anything about Huaixiang Pavilion outside."

"Don't let Fengnan tell her, remember."

As multi-faceted and exquisite as the queen mother, she has already thought about this kind of thing.

In the evening, the palace held a banquet about Gu Miao's engagement.

Princesses have never been given this kind of treatment, but Gu Miao, as the queen's own daughter, is naturally a bit special.

The red lanterns in the palace were decorated with lights and festoons, and Lin Song was also sent into the palace today.

According to customary etiquette, the emperor and queen should be saluted here.

Gu Qingsheng couldn't attend because he was locked up, which made Gu Miao wish for it.

In Gu Miao Palace, the lights were brightly lit.

She looked very luxurious in a bright red dress, with an excited expression on her face.

Luo Zhaozhao tied the skirt behind her back and said with a smile
"The color of the princess is beautiful. If the son-in-law sees it like this, he might be able to see it straight."

Gu Miao liked to hear these words the most, and immediately blushed, and she was also happy to see her own appearance.
"I said I like it, but he hasn't left the house for several days."

"I don't want to see me either, even the mother's edict has been dealt with."

She sighed, suddenly not confident

"Today, will he really come?"

Even Gu Miao must have been apprehensive when she was about to get married.

"Princess, Mr. Lin has come."

Luo Zhaozhaodao
"You don't have to think too much, Mr. Lin naturally likes the princess, especially seeing you in such a beautiful color today, he naturally likes the princess even more."

"Besides, today..."

she lowered her eyes

"Princess Changle didn't come over either, no one will stop you."

Gu Miao always likes to listen to compliments, and now she must be satisfied when she heard Luo Zhaozhao say this, the corners of her lips curled up slightly, but the scar on her face was shocking
"If I hadn't been disfigured, Lin Song wouldn't have been able to catch it, but unfortunately now..."

Sighing, she looked at Luo Zhaozhao and joked to Luo Zhaozhao

"Speaking of which, you seem to have lost some weight recently. Chu Zhiyao has always been good to you, and word has spread. When do you plan to marry him?"

"Although the imperial father's imperial decree for bestowing marriage says the time is for you to watch, but this thing really cannot be delayed."

After Gu Miao finished speaking, she looked up at Luo Zhaozhao's expression. Under the red candle, she lowered her eyes and said as if she hadn't thought about anything.
"We, Deputy General Chu, will naturally talk about it..."

"We are not in a hurry, I still want to wait for a while."

No matter how many times Gu Miao asked Luo Zhaozhao, Luo Zhaozhao always answered this way, which inevitably made Gu Miao feel boring
"Wait, wait, what are you waiting for?"

"He can't wait, and keeps asking me to urge you. Are your parents not in a hurry?"

"parents……"

Luo Zhaozhao was taken aback for a moment, and stopped helping Gu Miao to straighten the corners of his clothes.

Speaking of which, it has been a long time since I saw my mother.

She was silent and nodded

"I'll think about it again."

The store was brightly lit and red candles were everywhere, and there were already a crowd sitting under the stage, Gu Fengnan and Duan Wang were sitting next to the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother was twisting a string of Buddhist beads in her hand, and she was whispering to King Duan beside her. She seemed to be thinking about the fact that Gu Fengnan came to find her some time ago and ended up getting a bad nose, so she raised her old eyelids and called out.

"Fengnan."

Gu Fengnan, who was watching the singing and dancing, turned his head and his eyes were bright, and he smiled heartily without any malice

"What's the matter, Queen Mother?"

Seeing him like this, the Empress Dowager lowered her heavy eyelids again.

"Your sister, Changle, how are you doing recently?"

"Report to the Queen Mother."

Gufeng South Road
"According to the Queen Mother's instructions, my sister is now practicing calligraphy and painting in her room every day, which is quite fulfilling."

"That's good."

The Empress Dowager's eyebrows and eyes looked a little gloomy

"I don't know if I treat her like this, will I feel resentful towards me?"

Her words were obviously probing, but Gu Qingsheng could have heard it with just one ear.

The Empress Dowager did this for her sake. If she was dissatisfied with the Empress Dowager, she would have no idea what to do.

I wanted to know these things through Gu Fengnan's mouth, but Gu Fengnan pursed his lips and turned his eyebrows around

"What did the Queen Mother say? My sister has lived a very fulfilling life at home these few days. It's too late to thank the Queen Mother."

After he finished speaking, he took a sip of water, and the conversation he had with Gu Qingsheng recurred in his mind.

"Don't communicate too much with the Queen Mother this time, if she says anything, my brother should just respond."

"The current situation is in dire straits, and the Empress Dowager is also secretly comparing herself."

"elder brother."

I still remember that Gu Qingsheng's eyes were bright at that time, looking at the moonlight outside seemed to be deep

"For the Queen Mother, if we don't pay attention, we will fall into the abyss."
