Chapter 186: She is back
"Yes." Gu Yunxiang nodded and turned to leave. Xin Nian hurriedly stopped her and said, "Why are you alone? There's no girl following you?"
Gu Yunxiang said hurriedly: "Yangliu is waiting for me outside. I was afraid that my aunt hadn't woken up yet, so I didn't want to disturb you again, so I asked her to wait for me outside."
"Okay." Xin Nian was relieved. Aunt Gu hesitated and said, "Can the third girl do it alone? How about I go over and have a look?"
"No need." Xin Nian shook his head: "This matter is not originally about who has more power and louder voice. Anyway, the prince will naturally consider it. It is enough for three girls to take a look. Just stay here and take care of me.
Otherwise, if you go there, I'm afraid you'll get into a fight with Aunt Qiu and grandma, which will cause even more trouble."
Aunt Gu said coquettishly: "That's true. If I heard them making random arrangements for you, I would definitely start a quarrel. But... my sister just said it depends on the prince's attitude. What do you think his attitude will be?"
Xin Nian was silent for a long time, just looking at the raindrops falling from the eaves. Just when Aunt Gu thought she wouldn't speak, she heard her faintly say: "Who asked me to catch up there? What is the suspicion of melon fields and plums?
It is unavoidable that the prince will inevitably become suspicious. But...since he sent Brother Yun, he probably still has feelings for me, so he might let me go."
"How can this be called uncertainty? His Majesty is more than just in love with you. I see that His Majesty's love for you is as deep as the ocean. I guess that His Majesty is excited at the moment, and will inevitably doubt you in his grief, but...
...That's a thunder from the sky. Who can draw it down? It can't be your fault. So, after waiting for a while, the prince will eventually come around. If he doesn't pursue you now, he will be the last person.
That’s a good attitude.”
Xin Nian looked back at her: "Really? I don't have such great confidence, but you are so sure?"
Aunt Gu nodded solemnly: "Yes, I am so sure."
Xin Nian gave her a blank look: "Since you are so sure, why did you ask me just now? Sister Gu has no plans left, hasn't this been planned for a long time?"
Aunt Gu: ..."Seeing that my sister is still thinking about joking with me right now, it shows that this level is definitely a close call."
Such a big event happened in the house, and everything was in a mess. Before dinner, someone from Shouning Palace came to deliver supplements, saying that the old concubine only knew about this, and was afraid that Xin Nian would be too frightened, so she sent someone to visit
, and reassured Xin Nian that there was no one to blame for the Tianlei incident? He also asked her how she was in spirit? If she was not in good spirits, she would send her brother Yaya Feng, the sixth son, to stay in Shouning Palace for one night. The ancestors happened to miss them too.
Already..
Xin Nian's heart moved. The old concubine was clearly trying to support her, which was really rare in such a chaotic time.
So after sincerely thanking the old concubine, he asked someone to bring a message back, saying that he was much better and would go to Shouning Palace to say hello tomorrow morning. Liu Zai, Yaya and Brother Feng should have arrived at the concubine by now.
Courtyard, when they come back, let them go to Shouning Palace and wait...
After writing down the visitors one by one, they said goodbye and left. Here, Aunt Gu said happily: "It shows that our ancestors really like you. If you can stand up to you at this time, those villains who secretly want to add insult to injury will have to think carefully about it."
"
Xin Nian nodded, and Aunt Gu said softly: "It still depends on the prince's attitude. In fact, the prince must also be towards you, but... she is his mother after all..."
Xin Nian sat on the couch and said nothing, thinking: This is indeed the worst time. The concubine is dead now, which is when Gu Changting feels the most guilty and self-blaming. It is inevitable that he will not take his anger out on me. It's just...
…The opportunity is too rare, and I can’t afford to wait. If I really had to wait until the day he and the concubine and their son separated, I wouldn’t even know if Yaya and I were still there. Sister Qin would have been poisoned to death without any sound.
Is that so? I have thousands of hands and eyes, but I’m afraid I can’t take precautions. What’s more, I’m not a Bodhisattva, so I don’t have thousands of hands and eyes...
For three days in a row, Gu Changting did not come to Qingliang Courtyard, nor did he ask Xin Nian to go to the Taifei Courtyard, but he did not give up Xin Nian's power. In the past few days, people still came to Xin Nian to collect things.
Therefore, although Xin Nian had no involvement in the funeral matters, he was still very busy.
Finally, she had some time to take a breath in the afternoon. She was sitting on the couch drinking tea when she heard the sound of footsteps in the yard. When she leaned over and took a look, she saw Aunt Gu hurried up the steps and even almost narrowly crossed the threshold.
He stumbled and asked in surprise: "What's going on? Your Majesty is going to send someone to capture me?"
"No." Gu Auntie gasped for air, came and sat down opposite Xin Nian, first took a snack to eat, and then drank a glass of water, then she stroked her chest and said, "Guess who is back?"
"who?"
Xin Nian was confused. He really couldn't think of the person who could make Aunt Gu so nervous. Could it be that the Liao family came over to cause trouble because of Concubine Liao's death? That's not right, because Aunt Gu used the word "come back".
"Our eldest aunt is back, and she brought someone with her. This person is even more unexpected."
"Auntie?" Xin Nian straightened up: "Is Gu Yunxian back?"
Aunt Gu nodded, and then heard Xin Nian say doubtfully: "That's not right, the concubine only died a few days ago? She was thousands of miles away, how could she come back so soon to attend the funeral?"
"I didn't come back specifically for the funeral, I just happened to catch up with it. Now I was crying like a tear in the concubine's yard. The prince asked her what happened? She said she was being bullied at her husband's house.
I came back this time to join the concubine and my younger brother. Unexpectedly, I heard about the death of the concubine on the way. This was like a bolt from the blue, so I hurried and arrived in the capital two days early."
Xin Nian nodded slowly and said to himself: This is really not a peaceful life. A concubine died, but a great-aunt came back. This Gu Yunxian has always wanted to be the best. He was not on good terms with her husband's family in the past. Now that he comes back, he is afraid that he will
She has been here for a long time, and she is the princess. Wouldn't she be superior to others in this mansion? Oh! It's annoying. The only good thing is that she doesn't dare to kill Yaya, the sixth child.
After thinking for a long time, I suddenly remembered another sentence from Aunt Gu, so I raised my head and asked: "Yes, you said she brought someone back, and you said it was someone I didn't expect. Who is it?"
Aunt Gu looked at her with a complicated expression for a long time before sighing and whispering: "I heard my eldest aunt call her Madam Yao, and looking at her appearance, I guessed that she is the lady you once told me.
That girl Yao who passed by."
Xin Nian:......
Isn’t it? How could there be such a coincidence in the world?
"What's wrong? Maybe I guessed wrong. Otherwise, why don't you go over and have a look? Now I am temporarily arranged to live with the princess in Shuanghua Pavilion. This Shuanghua Pavilion is where the princess used to live when she was at home.
