Rebirth: Return to Houfu

Chapter 92

With the queen's intervention, Wei Qian was quickly accepted into the palace.Immediately afterwards, it was the matter of summoning Qin Yunran alone.

For Wei Qian, Qin Yunran's patience seemed to have grown infinitely.No matter how Wei Qian made trouble, Qin Yunran would remain unmoved.It was as if Wei Qian was irrelevant to him.

"Is the prime minister's residence vaguely dissatisfied with this marriage in the Muwang's residence?" In front of Wei Qian, the queen asked Qin Yunran directly.

"I don't dare." Qin Yunran is now an official, and he is a well-deserved official of the court.Coupled with Wei Qian's relationship, she will soon become a legitimate relative of the emperor.However, he himself is not very rare for this honor, and his attitude has always been alienated.

It was clear at a glance that Qin Yunran really didn't like this marriage, the queen understood it, and glanced at Wei Qian calmly.The marriage in the Prime Minister's Mansion was begged by Wei Qian herself.At that time, the situation at that time was coquettish and shameless at best, and nonsense at worst.

At that time, the queen didn't think too much about it, and felt that it was not difficult, so she directly agreed.But now it seems that she created a pair of resentful couples without knowing it...

Wei Qian didn't have so many thoughts, she just focused on Qin Yunran.Seeing Qin Yunran becoming increasingly indifferent to her, she deeply regretted it.If she had known that she would not have made trouble with Gu Fangling that day, she did not expect that the matter would become such a big mess in the end, and she would not allow her to clean it up.

Although she went to the prime minister's mansion again and again to apologize afterwards, but it was hard to reunite, Wei Qian always felt that there was a layer of separation between her and the prime minister's mansion now.

Because she felt something was wrong and was extremely uneasy, Wei Qian was worried that this marriage would end one day.This made her sleepless and terrified.

With all kinds of anxious thoughts, Wei Qian chose the most risky path: hunger strike.She believes that as long as she does this, it will definitely attract enough attention.When things get to the palace, no matter whether it is the Holy Majesty or the Empress, there will always be one who will stand up and make decisions for her.

Facts have proved that Wei Qian was right.No, she was standing in the queen's bedroom at this very moment.What's more, Qin Yunran, who had been avoiding her all this time, was also called into the palace.

Of course, Wei Qian knew that doing so was not a long-term solution, and also expected that it would cause Qin Yunran's dissatisfaction.But she has no retreat, nor does she want to retreat.She just wanted to marry Qin Yunran, and no matter what, there was nothing wrong with this marriage.

"Young Master Qin, please give Xiaoqian an explanation! This will prevent the girl's family from worrying and thinking wildly all day. If something happens, everyone will have a disturbed conscience." With a hint of admonition, the queen spoke.

Qin Yunran has always known that in this world, it is impossible to do everything recklessly and follow one's heart.But only at this moment, Qin Yunran hated the powerlessness of being forced.

If he had understood his feelings earlier, he wouldn't have passed by Gu Fangling!If you don't return the marriage of Gu Hou's mansion, how can you attract Wei Qian's savage pestering?
Wei Qian will never know, the more aggressive she is, the more disgusted Qin Yunran is towards her.What's more, from familiar friends to disgust and irritability that I can't wait to stay away.

statement?Qin Yunran didn't raise his head, his eyes fell on his toes, and he didn't speak for a long time.Not a silent protest, but really not knowing what to say.

Make him swear to be nice to Wei Qian?Even if it is to let him die, it is absolutely impossible to do.Or else, just let him calm Wei Qian's emotions with gentle words, so that she will stop messing around?Although it's not impossible, but...Qin Yunran just didn't want to do this.

If he could tell the truth, Qin Yunran would not mind showing his heart directly.He wished that Wei Qian hated him, or even hated him.As long as Wei Qian doesn't bother him again.Don't use the so-called marriage as an excuse to hurt the people he cares about in the name of justice.

Why!In matters of emotion, even if it is the royal power, it is impossible to control people's hearts, and it is even more impossible to accurately control all emotions.Not everyone loves power, and not everyone is tempted by gold and silver.The queen knew that Qin Yunran standing in front of her was such a number one person.

To some extent, Qin Yunran is more inclined to the character of the third prince!After confirming this point, the queen found it more and more tricky and difficult to handle.She can't force Qin Yunran to like Wei Qian, can she?If she had this skill and ability, how could the number of concubines in the harem increase every year?

Seeing that Qin Yunran remained silent, the joy and excitement in Wei Qian's heart were gradually extinguished, and the smile on her face also disappeared.She loves Qin Yunran so much, but Qin Yunran treats her differently.She knew that Qin Yunran had someone in his heart, and that person was probably Gu Fangling.For this, Wei Qian gritted her teeth with hatred, but for a moment she had nothing to do with Gu Fangling.

Last time, I wanted to punish Gu Fangling severely, ordering him not to get close to Qin Yunran recklessly.As a result, she accidentally provoked the prince's brother into a rage, causing her to offend the imperial concubine and the fifth brother, and finally implicated the entire prime minister's mansion...

For some mistakes, it's enough to make them once, Wei Qian didn't want to make them a second time, and she didn't intend to be that stupid person.

Therefore, if you can't start with Gu Fangling, you can only grab Qin Yunran's heart.Even if there is no way to make Qin Yunran fall in love with her immediately, at least he must firmly grasp Qin Yunran's weakness, so that he can no longer think about Gu Fangling.This is the small calculation in Wei Qian's heart, and the result she wants to get after going around a lot.

However, Qin Yunran didn't seem to understand her painstaking efforts at all, and was unwilling to follow her script.Even though she had hinted so clearly, Qin Yunran still didn't take her seriously, even the Empress Empress was indifferent when she came forward.

Seeing this scene, Wei Qian couldn't help hating Gu Fangling's existence even more, wishing to get rid of Gu Fangling immediately.Only in this way can Qin Yunran truly give up.Thinking of this, Wei Qian clenched her hands tightly into fists, and a firm light burst out from her eyes.

In the end, the summons came to nothing.The Queen failed to ease the conflict between Qin Yunran and Wei Qian, so she could only let Qin Yunran go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion first, and then comfort Wei Qian.

"Aunt Queen, it's fine. Xiaoqian already knows what to do. Don't worry, Aunt Queen, Xiaoqian won't be stupid again." Wei Qian wrinkled her whole face pitifully, and Wei Qian's words were filled with tears, with a look of mourning There is nothing greater than the look of death.

"You, you haven't reached the last step yet. Why did you give up so early? According to this palace, the prime minister is definitely not a hard-hearted person. On the contrary, he is extremely affectionate and righteous. Xiaoqian might as well change her mood and start Slowly get along with the prime minister and get along more, maybe you can impress the prime minister's heart?" Because Wei Qingmo had already told him that there were many places where it was inconvenient for the empress to intervene, so Wei Qian could only rely on Wei Qian's self-reliance.

Although she didn't know what Wei Qingmo had said to the queen, Wei Qian also knew that the queen couldn't help her sincerely.After all, it was clear from the last time that the queen was on Gu Fangling's side.Didn't you see that Gu Fangling can enter and leave the palace at will until now?He talked about teaching the princesses how to ride horses, but inwardly he was deliberately giving Gu Fangling special privileges?

Therefore, Wei Qian didn't believe the queen's consolation at all.From her point of view, the empress was just perfunctory to her, she just wanted to give an explanation to her concubine mother and Prince Mu's mansion.

Hearing this incident alarmed the Holy Majesty?That's right, the queen must be acting deliberately to show Uncle Sheng, it is absolutely impossible to be so kind as to really help her plan.

While silently thinking this way, Wei Qian directly divided the queen and Wei Qingmo into the hostile camp.After that, I started looking for other relationships.Immediately afterwards, without any hesitation, he thought of Imperial Concubine Huang Guifei and Wei Qinghao.

No matter what, these two people will definitely protect her!Upholding such firm thoughts, Wei Qian didn't want to stay in the Queen's bedroom any longer, so she just found a reason and left the Queen's sight.

Hearing that Wei Qian wanted to be alone, the queen let her go without thinking too much, and even specially told the palace servants around her to take good care of Wei Qian.And when she heard the report that Wei Qian had gone to the imperial concubine's place, the queen's expression changed immediately.

Looking at it like this, Wei Qian thinks that the imperial concubine can keep her quiet, and the queen's bedroom is just a suffocating place?The queen didn't feel angry, but secretly rejoiced that she was reminded by the prince and didn't devote all her blood to handling this matter.

As for the Holy Majesty, the Queen felt that it would be better to tell the truth.Since she is not capable enough and Wei Qian trusts the imperial concubine even more, why not leave this matter to the imperial concubine to handle?The queen believed that with the exquisite appearance of the imperial concubine, maybe she could really plan a bright road for Wei Qian?

Hearing that the Queen said that she was helpless, the Holy Majesty did not blame too much.Knowing that this matter was really embarrassing for the queen, she simply did as the queen said and handed it over to the imperial concubine to have a try.

Suddenly being appointed by the Holy Majesty, the imperial concubine was overjoyed, and immediately vowed secretly that she would make the Holy Majesty look at her with admiration.But after hearing the news from Wei Qinghao, the imperial concubine couldn't help but have a headache.She didn't know that Wei Qian had made the situation so out of hand that she offended the entire Prime Minister's Mansion completely.In this way, what should I do?
"What can we do? Just leave it alone and let Xiaoqian make troubles on her own." Hearing the embarrassment of the imperial concubine, Wei Qinghao snorted coldly, and had no intention of taking over this mess at all.Why do they bother with things that even the queen doesn't care about?

Not to mention that he had already had a rift with Qin Yunran, Wei Qinghao didn't want Wei Qian to further destroy the already shaky friendship between him and Qin Yunran.

Unexpectedly, Wei Qinghao would react like this, and the imperial concubine was a little stunned for a moment.leave it alone?This...isn't that good, is it?
And Wei Qinghao really meant that, and even urged the imperial concubine to keep silent and let Wei Qian do whatever she wanted.

Thoughts came and went, the imperial concubine still chose to follow Wei Qinghao's suggestion.Although I feel sorry for Xiaoqian by doing this, my son will never harm him.What's more, feelings are unpredictable, maybe one day Qin Yunran will suddenly change his sex and fall in love with Xiaoqian?
Thinking of this, the imperial concubine began to stand by with peace of mind.In front of Wei Qian, it is necessary to use your mouth and say a few nice words.In front of the Holy One, it is necessary to cry out your grievances in a little embarrassment.After several twists and turns, the imperial concubine's tactic of obedience and infidelity was extremely successful, and gradually calmed down the matter.

The concubine's calculations, the queen had seen early on, but did not stop her.After all, it had nothing to do with her, and she no longer wanted to mess with Wei Qian, a hot potato.So, let the imperial concubine worry about it!
With new countermeasures in the palace, the pressure and intimidation on the Prime Minister's Mansion were instantly reduced, and the atmosphere was much more relaxed.

Qi Luo was kicked out by the prime minister's wife because of the leak of the previous news.Since then, the prime minister's wife has been in a depressed mood, filled with indescribable remorse and guilt.

If she had known that Qi Luo was restless, she should have kept an eye on Qi Luo.If it wasn't for Qi Luo, the Prime Minister's Mansion would not have been scolded by the Holy Majesty, and Yun Ran would not have been pestered by Wei Qian again and again...

As long as she thought of Wei Qian's hunger strike in such a grand battle recently, the prime minister's wife would feel overwhelmed.Wei Qian was her chosen daughter-in-law, but it wasn't really a happy event.Just looking at the troubles and disasters that Wei Qian brought to the Prime Minister's Mansion before she even passed the door, it can be seen that there may be troubles in the future.

It turned out that the Prime Minister's wife was almost driven to the point of exhaustion by Wei Qian.Just thinking about making one last effort and going to Prince Mu's Mansion to have a good discussion, he heard that Wei Qian was taken into the palace by the empress.

At that time, the prime minister's wife had mixed feelings, and she didn't know how to react at all.Are you happy that Wei Qian's farce is finally over, or are you worried that Wei Qian will make up things in front of the Queen and the Holy One, and even add crimes to the prime minister's office?

The moment she learned that Qin Yunran was announced into the palace, the prime minister's wife felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave, and felt chills all over her body.I thought it would be another involuntary reprimand, but unexpectedly, there was only a lot of thunder and rain, and no bigger waves were caused.

In the following days, the prime minister's wife has been suffering through.She was worried that if she let down her vigilance, Wei Qian would be caught off guard.But fortunately, things slowly calmed down.

I heard that it was the good fruit obtained by the imperial concubine's help?The prime minister's wife was so grateful that she repeatedly urged Qin Yunran to thank the fifth prince face to face.

Faced with the prime minister's wife's urging, Qin Yunran did not refuse, and went to find Wei Qinghao as before.

Listening to Qin Yunran's words, although Wei Qinghao knew that he hadn't done anything, everything was just a mistake.However, he still didn't explain anything, patted Qin Yunran on the shoulder, and readily accepted the gratitude from Qin Yunran and even the entire Prime Minister's Palace.

At this point, the almost broken relationship between Qin Yunran and Wei Qinghao was suddenly relieved and returned to normal again.What's more, there is a faint trend of heating up.

On the third day of March in the 32nd year of Xuanyuan, it was sunny and sunny, suitable for marriage.The sixteen-year-old Gu Fangyao finally got her wish, and with joy and excitement, she married into the Fifth Prince's Mansion in a splendid manner.This year, Gu Fangyao was 15 years old, and her marriage has not yet been decided.

In June of the 32nd year of Xuanyuan, the marriage between the little princess of Mu Wang's mansion and the son of the Prime Minister's mansion was put on the agenda.The spring breeze was blowing on Wei Qian's face all day long, but Qin Yunran, who was usually handsome, showed a gloomy aura day after day.

Looking at Qin Yunran, who was obviously in a bad mood, Wei Qinghao twitched the corners of his lips and invited him to a restaurant to get drunk.

Qin Yunran remained silent, did not refuse, and agreed.

"Old lady, the second girl's marriage can't be delayed any longer." Because of the Holy Majesty's oral order, Chen Ziyun couldn't move Gu Fangling.But now, Gu Fangyao is already the upright side concubine of the Fifth Prince, Chen Ziyun naturally becomes full of confidence.

"Well, it really can't be delayed any longer." Su Shi nodded upon hearing this.No matter it was because of Gu Fangyao's affection or out of caring for Gu Fangling, the Su family would definitely not object to Chen Ziyun's proposal.

"Then..." Chen Ziyun deliberately hesitated for a moment before asking, "You decide to choose a marriage for the second girl?"

"No, you can handle it." With a completely different attitude from a year ago, Su waved his hand and handed over the right to call the shots to Chen Ziyun.

Chen Ziyun was overjoyed, and did not refuse, and agreed on the spot.Because of Chen Junbao's matter, she completely offended her natal family, and now she is only waiting to make up for her mistakes, and of course she can't go on business trips anymore.

In fact, ever since Gu Fangyao and Wei Qinghao's marriage was settled, the relationship between Chen Ziyun and the Chen family has been significantly eased.Now the Chen family has even benefited from Chen Ziyun, and the whole family moved from Yecheng to Yancheng.At the same time, Chen Junbao, who had disappeared for a long time, finally returned home.

Compared with the young and ambitious two years ago, Chen Junbao, who has lost both legs, looks depressed and gloomy all the time.It's not that the Chen family doesn't hate Gu Fangling, but they can't find a chance to get revenge.Now that Chen Ziyun brought up the old matter again, and once again talked about the matter of betrothing Gu Fangling, the Chen family's mind inevitably became active.

Gu Fangling learned that Chen Ziyun was in charge of her marriage again when Chen Ziyun directly ordered someone to deliver the list to her.

The scene was exactly the same as the previous life, but the time was changed, and the names on the list were also changed.Just looking at the topmost word "Chen Junbao", but still unable to escape the "Chen" surname, it can be seen that Chen Ziyun has no selfish intentions, and still has the same plan.

The former Gu Fangling couldn't resist, and was sent into the Chen family's magic cave by Chen Ziyun and Gu Fangyao.Now Gu Fangling scanned the list without saying a word, and with a smile ordered Lan Yan to just pass the list to Gu Changlin for review.

Thanks to Wei Qingmo's support, Gu Changlin's position in the court has been stabilized, and he is a well-deserved important minister that cannot be ignored.Whether it's dealing with people or scheming, they are definitely not comparable to Gu Changlin in his previous life.

For example, at this moment, when he casually tore the list in half, Gu Changlin pursed his lips and told the boy beside him: "Give it back to Madam."

Chen Ziyun dropped the porcelain all over the floor.This matter is not hidden from anyone, nor can it hide the news.

When Gu Changlin heard about it, he sneered and said nothing, only knowing what to do.

When Gu Fangling found out, she laughed at Yanyun cleverly, and deliberately sent the clothes she had embroidered for a long time to Gu Changlin's yard.

When Mrs. Su heard about it, she raised her eyebrows in surprise, and hurriedly found Madam Su to ask what was going on.

As for Su Momo, with a light sigh, she told the truth about Gu Changlin's actions.However, in the words, there is still a sense that Mrs. Hou is not calm enough.

Su Shi also felt that Chen Ziyun was too impatient.Isn't it just a list, Changlin will send it back, naturally he looks down on the people on it.Chen Ziyun just chooses another candidate, why bother to insult his reputation?
Of course Chen Ziyun didn't mean to be angry, she was really pissed off by Gu Changlin's actions.What does it mean to tear it in half?To threaten her, or to intimidate her?Thinking about it further, is Gu Changlin implying that he intends to take her life?
Chen Ziyun couldn't help but tell Gu Houye about the scene that made his heart tremble just thinking about it.In return, Master Gu scolded and scolded without knowing why: "A woman's opinion! Long hair, but short knowledge. Chang Lin is just expressing his opinion, where is the threat and killing intent?"

"Master Hou, this concubine is a stepmother after all, so..." Chen Ziyun felt that she was wronged, and began to cry, "My concubine also wants to get close to the young master and the second girl, but you also know, Lord Hou, that they Both brothers and sisters don't care about the concubine's body. In the past, Yao'er was in the mansion, and she was able to appease the depressed mood of the concubine's body. Now that Yao'er is married to the fifth prince's mansion, there is only one person left in the concubine's body. It is really uncomfortable. , so I couldn't help but talk to Lord Hou..."

I have to admit that Chen Ziyun is very smart, so she appropriately moved out of Gu Fangyao's current status as the side concubine of the fifth prince's residence, and was careful not to annoy Gu Houye.

Sure enough, the next moment, Master Gu sighed, and took Chen Ziyun into his arms gently: "Where are you alone? Don't you still have a husband and Chang'an?"

"Master Hou, the concubine is just... just..." Chen Ziyun broke down in tears, and he never finished his words after that, but it seemed that he had exhausted countless grievances and pains.

"It's because my husband has neglected you all these years, and I apologize to you for my husband." Because Chen Ziyun gave birth to him a daughter who sat on the fifth prince's side concubine, Chen Ziyun's weight in Gu Houye's mind increased sharply, and even had Today's warmth and care.It is extremely rare, but it is enough to prove that Chen Ziyun's position in Guhou Mansion has risen again.

"Why did Lord Hou say this? I don't need an apology from Lord Hou, and I don't dare to ask him to apologize. I have a small heart, and I just want our family in Guhou's mansion to be happy, and everyone to be safe. It's just a matter of living. Yao'er is already married, so she can be regarded as beautiful. Now the second girl is following closely in the mansion. As a stepmother, how can I be sloppy? I am afraid that what I do is not safe enough, which will make the second girl unhappy. It made the young master feel dissatisfied, so he expanded the scope of selection as much as possible. It's just that I didn't expect that the concubine has already done this, and there are still some omissions. I am ashamed." Got Gu Houye's clear statement , Chen Ziyun's mood calmed down immediately, and he spoke very neatly.

Gu Houye became more and more guilty the more he listened, his position shifted instantly, and he inevitably stood by Chen Ziyun's side.Think about Chen Ziyun's embarrassing position in Guhou's mansion, and then think about Gu Changlin's current success, and Gu Fangling's smooth sailing after receiving the Holy Spirit...

No matter how Gu Houye thought about it, he felt that Chen Ziyun must have been wronged in places he didn't know about.Piansheng is such a woman who has suffered all kinds of grievances for him, but without complaint has raised a concubine who is enough to make Guhou's mansion even more popular.Gu Houye pursed his lips, and suddenly made a decision in his heart.
