Chapter 347: Namei

Huai'en dared not say anything more. Emperor Qianyuan's temper has not been very good recently. The influence of the empress dowager's chaos in politics still exists. Only in front of Gu San Shao can Emperor Qianyuan be truly happy.

The emperor is in a bad mood and will really die.

Huai'en didn't want Duke Ding and Empress Gu to capsize. Not to mention that the court would cause the Gu family to be unlucky, and even His Majesty... he wouldn't be in a good mood.

Although he had the intention to repay Gu Tianze for saving his life, he had to consider more about Emperor Qianyuan's dragon body and reputation.

"Uncle Guo." Huaien went out of the imperial study and lowered his voice: "I have been following Your Majesty. The person who made the mistake this time is really the grandson of Marquis Ningyuan. He has no relationship with the Third Young Master. The Third Young Master was almost injured by the Liu family's trap. You also know that the Third Young Master is a protective person and a wife of Yan State personally named by His Majesty. How could he see the Third Young Master being embarrassed? Naturally... everything is done by the Mrs. Yan State."

"Thank you, Father-in-law Huai'en."

Duke Ding Guo was not a person who was not a person of the world. Huai'en rarely called him the uncle, and would not easily call Aze the third young master.

Huai'en was a slave to Emperor Qianyuan, and they were relatives of Emperor Qianyuan.

"Sister, you'd better go back to the harem."

Duke Dingguo dissuaded Empress Gu who was standing beside him and whispered: "The emperor favors her very much, and is very cautious and his majesty's favorite minister. Aze has not yet spoken. You are not suitable for mentioning the daughter of the Liu family at this time, and Aze is the one who is released in Aze's house. Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion is precious and not suitable for Aze."

Queen Gu's eyes flashed, "I have a sense of responsibility, so I can't be wronged."

"The Empress..."

Duke Ding wanted to persuade him again. A little eunuch ran in from the side and said to Huaien first: "There is news from Duke Rong's Mansion to be sent in."

Huai'en was slightly stunned, "Madam Rong Guogong?"

"Yes." The little eunuch said in a low voice: "It was said that Mrs. Rong Guogong's pain, maybe it was an attack in advance. Please ask the Duke to return home."

Huaien said: "Why don't you hurry up and tell Duke Huiding? Duke Rong is really good at rushing the time. He is really a noble man who is born to be a Duke's wife."

No one believed that Duke Dingguo entered the palace, but Duke Rong launched the wife of Duke Rong. Duke Rong was afraid that Duke Situ wanted to stop Duke Dingguo... Even if he couldn't stop it, he would remind Duke Dingguo. He not only had the son Gu Sanshao, but also Duke Rong's mansion.

No wonder most famous families use legitimate daughters to marry each other, which is not to say that the birth of a illegitimate daughter is not good. Just in terms of success rate, legitimate daughters who have been strictly educated since childhood are much better.

After hearing the letter from the eunuch, Duke Ding was in a dilemma. He was determined to leave the palace to accompany Duke Rong, but he was surrounded by Empress Gu.

"I won't go in?"

"elder sister……"

Queen Gu was a little disappointed, "Forget it, you go and do it, it's okay for me to be alone."

At any time, the body that was straight and wanted to bend was slightly bent. Queen Gu stared at Duke Ding with complexity and turned around and entered the imperial study.

Duke Ding was silent for a while, and then walked into the imperial study.

Father-in Huai'en waved his hand to disperse the eunuchs around him. He closed the door of the imperial study room and stopped interfering with Emperor Qianyuan's family affairs.

He did what he should do and what he should be compatible with. He bowed and stood beside the pillar, and approached the eunuch next to him and whispered: "Why don't you go and send a letter to Lord Gu?"

The little eunuch who was talking was swept across by the eyes of the father-in-law Huai'en trembled in fear, "I am kind-hearted. My father-in-law, I am..."

"We know you are kind."

Father-in Huai'en smiled, "But you shouldn't say this. The most important thing for those who serve His Majesty is to be strict."

"Father-in-law..."

"You have always wanted to go to Dongchang, and our family will help you." Father-in-law Huai'en waved his hand gently, "Give this monkey baby to Eunuch Liu, and he will listen to Liuchang's orders from now on."

"yes."

The eunuch was blocked and pulled away.

"Brother-in-law..." Someone took over his position. Huai'en stared at his shadow on the ground. "Why make it difficult for Mr. Gu San to make things difficult? Mr. Yan wants to coax and favor him. Mr. Gu San was busy as a father. Just fighting with Lord Wang is enough to work hard. The emperor will not make things difficult for the Empress for a while. Besides, there is no Duke Ding in the house? In terms of being close, Duke Ding could not persuade the Empress. What's the use of Master Gu San to come to live? It's just to waste His Majesty's favor."

"I heard that Lord Wang was going to keep Mrs. Yan's wife at her mother's house to give birth, and Lord Gu was scratching his head."

"Let the East Factory send more fun from the Marquis' Mansion. Your Majesty likes to watch it. Your Majesty is happy. Only those who are our servants can live a better life and wealth can last forever."

"My father-in-law said yes."

One day, the emperor and the ministers, like their group of eunuchs who followed Emperor Qianyuan, they are good at Emperor Qianyuan. They are decent when they go out, and the ministers of the previous dynasty dare to offend easily. What if Emperor Qianyuan... the new king would not trust them, it would be nice to find a place to retreat. Do you still want the decent today?

****

"Your Majesty, I really like Liu Mingzhu. That child is as sensible, filial and wise as before."

Only Queen Gu's heartfelt praise was heard in the imperial study, praising Liu Mingzhu as a strange woman who was in the sky and not on the ground. "She knows both piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and she speaks and acts very well. I heard that she is still a blessed person."

Emperor Qianyuan sat on the dragon chaise with a meaningful smile on his lips. He did not interrupt Queen Gu's words, but instead gave Queen Gu a hint of encouraging him to continue praising him. Queen Gu's eyes lit up, "Your Majesty, she is really a rare lady."

Duke Ding stood by silently. Although he followed Empress Gu into the imperial study, he did not say a word, nor did he say that the Liu family was a hero, nor did he mention apologizing for his son.

"The queen values ​​Ningyuan Hou's granddaughter?"

Emperor Qianyuan turned sideways and widened the wide teacup lazily. "I was a little moved by praising her like a flower. Why? Marquis Ningyuan asked him to come to you?"

Duke Ding was shocked in his heart, raised his eyes and glanced at Emperor Qianyuan. This was the last chance left for Empress Gu. "The Empress likes Miss Liu very much, and wants to give her a decent amount. There is no more glorious marriage in this world."

I just hope my sister can understand, and never mention Aze.

"Oh." Emperor Qianyuan didn't even raise his eyelids. "Which family did the empress like her? In addition to the prince and Aze, I have always handed over the marriage between important officials and nobles to the empress, and the empress's mother will treat the world and make a good marriage."

"His Majesty……"

"Duke Ding, this is the Queen's business. Don't talk too much. I know that your brother and brother have a deep relationship, but don't forget that you are a foreign minister."

"I obey the order."

Duke Ding could only be anxious, regretting that he had not communicated with Empress Gu before entering the imperial study. He had never thought about marrying the Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion. The Gu family is now as hot as fire and the precious relatives can't even hide. How could they get together?

He kept close to Ningyuan Hou. It doesn't mean that he wanted to win over Ningyuan Hou.

What's more, Aze's wife is just pregnant and is Wang Jinzhi's daughter. She is the title of Mrs. Yan. Which one is the less identifiable?

If you have a noble concubine or a fair wife, aren’t you afraid that Wang Jinzhi will swear in front of the court officials?

Marquis Ningyuan was not the wife of Duke Rong, but they were all hereditary marquis. The status was different a lot, and the Situ clan happily became Duke Rong. In front of Duke Ding, he was a small one, but the granddaughter of the Marquis Ningyuan was much more precious than the Situ clan.

"The queen tells you, Mingzhu is so beautiful, which boy is the queen planning to give it to?"

Emperor Qianyuan's smile became stronger, as if he was talking to Empress Gu, as if Empress Gu would nod when he said someone.

"His Majesty……"

Empress Gu was bewitched by Emperor Qianyuan's smile. Over the years, Emperor Qianyuan rarely rejected her requests. Sometimes she knew that she had excessive requests, Emperor Qianyuan approved them and ended them. Therefore, among the court officials and among the people, Empress Gu has a good reputation and many people call her a virtuous queen.

Sometimes when Emperor Qianyuan was stubborn, the court officials would try to find Empress Gu to be compatible. Every time Empress Gu came forward, Emperor Qianyuan would give face.

Empress Gu also knew the importance of the matter and would not come forward easily. Therefore, in the eyes of outsiders, the emperor and the empress were in love with each other.

The confidence over the years has made Empress Gu more confident. Besides, she said that Aze is the one. Everyone knows that Gu Tianze was raised by Emperor Qianyuan as his son. Even if the emperor disagrees, she will not let her down on her kindness to Aze.

"How do you think of Aze?" Queen Gu asked tentatively, "I have always treated him as my biological child. I am willing to leave any good things to Aze."

"Aze?"

Emperor Qianyuan smiled, "The Queen doesn't remember that Aze has a wife? The celestial fairy-like person the queen likes is just a concubine for Aze? The Marquis of Ningyuan would not know if he would fight to me. The Ningyuan Iron Cavalry he used was stationed in the suburbs of Beijing, and the court could no longer withstand the shock."

Empress Gu retreated a little when she heard this. The Ningyuan Marquis Mansion was indeed very popular for a while, but because of this, Empress Gu thought of tied the Ningyuan Marquis Mansion to the Gu family's ship.

"Mrs. Aze is pregnant and does need arrangements. Aze was raised by me, so naturally it is unusual for a nobleman." Emperor Qianyuan left a living point.

Duke Dingguo closed his eyes, this was a trap!

What Your Majesty is best at is setting traps and watching the court officials jump in willingly.

"This matter is not without room for maneuver. Isn't there any precedent for Duke Ding?" Queen Gu was indeed caught and said self-righteously: "Duke Rong's Mansion also needs a prince."

Duke Dingguo: "..."

"interesting."

Emperor Qianyuan laughed and said, "It's really interesting. Prince Rong Duke? The queen is so smart that she adopted Aze directly under the name of Rong Duke? I heard that Mrs. Rong Duke is about to give birth, what if she gives birth to a son?"

"It depends on who is the crown prince for his son. Aze should not only be the lord of Yongshou. Dingguo Duke's mansion already has a crown prince. Aze is both talented and beautiful, just because he is the third son of the legitimate son who cannot be crowned the crown prince. He also has the attention of His Majesty, which makes it difficult for the eldest son-in-law's son-in-law to have a heart-to-heart relationship with him."

"how do you say?"

Emperor Qianyuan interrupted Empress Gu and turned to ask Duke Ding, "Are you willing to adopt your son to your second brother?"

"My...My..."

Of course, Duke Ding couldn't bear to let Aze go, and felt guilty about Aze. He never thought of adopting Aze, even his second brother was the same.

"The queen didn't discuss it with you before?"

"minister……"

Duke Ding fell to his knees and was speechless. Emperor Qianyuan gave him a choice, whether to leave Aze or sacrifice Aze for the ignorant Empress Gu, the palms and backs of his hands were flesh, and no matter how he chose, he was wrong!

Emperor Qianyuan looked down at Duke Ding who was kneeling in front of the imperial case in a profound and unpredictable manner, waiting patiently for his answer, "It's okay, you are my brother-in-law, just say it if you have something to say, I can control the crimes of outsiders, you are different, you have made merits in the country, and I... I have always treated you as a relative."

Empress Gu's puzzled eyes wandered back and forth on Emperor Qianyuan and Duke Ding. The atmosphere was inappropriate. Did she say the wrong thing?

"I'm not happy to let Aze be the prince of Duke Rong? The Duke Rong is a hereditary duke, and it is already the most expensive."

The state dynasty cannot be granted a title without a royal family, and the hereditary duke is the pinnacle of the civil ranks.

"You are just watching Aze lead the army to fight for a future? The last time he sent troops to the southern border was his good luck. Who knows if there will be danger in the future?" Queen Gu said: "Don't you feel sorry for him?"

"Empress, Aze is Yongshouhouhou."

Duke Ding couldn't help but remind Empress Gu, "He doesn't need to worry about his future, His Majesty will make arrangements."

"Isn't Wang Zhiyao pregnant? The title of Yongshou Hou will be left to her son to inherit, and the rules of inheriting the title should not be messed up."

"But... Aze is Chen's son, not his second brother!"

Duke Ding Guo said in a very strong tone, "Empress, he is the son of a minister!"

In an instant, Duke Ding seemed to have removed a heavy burden and was much easier.

Emperor Qianyuan stared at Duke Ding for a long time and curled his lips, "Do you still remember that he is your son? I thought you had forgotten it long ago."

"Your Majesty..." Duke Ding's face turned pale, "Empress is unintentional, and I... everything is my fault."

Emperor Qianyuan smiled and said, "Empress, you are not kind. A beautiful woman like Liu Mingzhu shouldn't be here to enjoy it? Is it impossible for me to be the queen's heart to be that stinky brat?!"
