Dong Chenghu had just woken up and was in a good mood, but his mind was still dizzy. After hearing Gu Shuixiu's words, he was stunned for a moment and asked strangely: "Why did you suddenly ask this? But what's wrong with Liuyin Pavilion?"

Gu Shuixiu whispered a few words in Dong Chenghu's ear, and then said normally: "Your Majesty, we have been with the Yuan family for a year. You know more about the old man of the Yuan family. He doesn't like to bother others the most, nor do he like to live under others. They are uncomfortable in the palace, which is not a good thing for everyone. We will go over and take a look later. If Mr. Yuan has ideas, we should support them as much as possible. What do you think?"

Dong Chenghu also knew clearly what Gu Shuixiu said. He even knew the idea of ​​Old Master Yuan better. After all, he was a scholar. Old Master Yuan's awesomeness was not exhausted due to poverty and illness. He accepted the money they gave before because they insisted. In addition, it was difficult to refuse after knowing their identities, so he took it. Dong Chenghu later thought of helping them again, but Old Master Yuan refused to agree.

However, the Yuan family's foundation is too thin. In a place like Jiankang where every inch of land is valuable, the amount of money is not enough, and it is impossible to even buy a decent small house. If the Yuan family lives in a dormitory house like Baishui County, he himself cannot overcome the hurdle in his heart.

The couple was talking about something, and the palace servants outside came to report that the Crown Princess brought a few sons to the palace to pay tribute.

It just so happened that Dong Chenghu and Gu Shuixiu hadn't seen their grandson for a long time. They smiled and asked them to come in, holding the three children and refused to let go.

After Bai Tongyu greeted her, she stood by and watched with a smile. It was not until Gu Shuixiu asked her that Bai Tongyu respectfully told the Emperor and Empress that what happened in Gu Shuixiu for more than a year was not in the palace, "Mother, Princess Wen gave birth to a little granddaughter for you, and Princess Wu gave birth to another son. Recently, she often thought about why she didn't give birth to a caring little cotton jacket. She was a little depressed, but she was still in confinement and could not enter the palace to pay her respects.

The eldest son of Yong'an Bo Mansion has already married, and the other party is the eldest daughter of General Yu Qi's family..."

Dong Chenghu and Gu Shuixiu listened with a smile, very happy, thinking that they would let Princess Wen carry her little daughter into the palace later, which would make them very rare.

Seeing that Dong Chenghu and Gu Shuixiu were so happy, Bai Tongyu hesitated and didn't know whether to tell them another bad news.

Gu Shuixiu's sharp eyes were still sharp, and she found that Bai Tongyu's face was not very right. After her questioning, Bai Tongyu sighed and said, "My father and mother, the Grand Tutor started to get sick at the beginning of the year, and his condition has become worse and worse. The Imperial Doctor said that he can't last long."

"What!" Dong Chenghu stood up in shock, with an incredible look on his face.

Gu Shuixiu asked sadly, "How could this happen? When we left, the husband was still so strong, how could he fall ill so quickly? What about the imperial physicians in the Imperial Hospital? Can't even cure them?"

Seeing that the emperor and empress were both sad and angry, Bai Tongyu quickly explained: "Father, mother, the prince had already asked the entire Imperial Hospital doctors to go to the Taifu Mansion to treat the Taifu Lord, and even some doctors with excellent medical skills in the folk have been invited. However, the Taifu is old and has suffered some hidden diseases before, so now he can only treat it gently and take care of it slowly, and cannot give strong medicine at all.

But those gentle medicines cannot cure them, so... In addition, the matters of the Pei family have always bothered the Taifu, and the Taifu couldn't rest well at all."

"Pei family? Hasn't the Pei family's problems been dealt with? What trouble happened?" Dong Chenghu asked angrily.

Bai Tongyu replied honestly: "Since the separation of the family, the Pei family has indeed disintegrated their internal forces. There is no problem with the second and third bedrooms of the Pei family. However, the Dingguo Duke's Mansion is different. The three sons of Dingguo Duke are not fuel-efficient.

Especially the second son and third son of Duke Ding Guo, the two of them had healed their scars and forgot the pain. After that, they continued to linger in the Huajie Street and the wine alleys, and even reached the point of giving up on themselves.

The two of them were unable to enter politics, and the Yue family gave up on them. In addition, they had been squandering the money from the Duke Ding Mansion. Over time, the eldest son of Duke Ding's family also had objections to them. At first, they just deducted some money, but later they simply refused to give it to them.

This matter ended up with Duke Ding. Duke Ding was so angry that he had a stroke, and it seemed that he would be almost out of reach. If Duke Ding fell and the prince succeeded to the throne, I am afraid that those two families would not have a good end.

Duke Ding Guo was unable to write a trustee to the Taifu, hoping that the Taifu would help coordinate the family affairs, but he didn't know that the Taifu was in poor health. After knowing the situation of Duke Ding Guo's mansion, he became ill. It was useless to persuade Duke Zhenguo. Now the Taifu occasionally dreamed that he kept talking about something about sorry for his wife. It seemed that the matter of the Pei family caused a serious psychological burden to him."

Bai Tongyu didn't understand why the Pei family was involved, and Shen Shikang felt guilty, but Dong Chenghu and Gu Shuixiu knew that since Pei Dongqi had not listened to Shen Shikang's advice, Shen Shikang intentionally or unintentionally alienated the Pei family, and even tactfully refused Pei Dongqi's suggestion to marry. Afterwards, he never had any interaction with the Pei family. His approach was actually to protect the Shen family and protect the Duke of Zhenguo's family. It was just in the eyes of others, which was a bit unkind and even heartless.

Now that the Pei family is broken down, Pei Dongqi has become like this again. Except for the title of Duke Ding, nothing can match the second and third rooms of the Pei family. Shen Shikang feels guilty, which is normal.

Gu Shuixiu Si paid some time, looked at Dong Chenghu, and signaled him to sit down and think of a solution. Then he asked Bai Tongyu: "How is your health now? Can you still eat or sleep?"

Gu Shuixiu asked, but fortunately Bai Tongyu had a relatively detailed understanding before, so he could answer it.

The emperor and empress were thinking about the solution, but they didn't say anything more.

Bai Tongyu wanted to go and see the Yuan family, and asked carefully: "Father, the queen, the prince just told me that my aunt and her family had entered the palace, and my wife wanted to visit them."

"It should be that you are a junior. It's better to meet in the past. They are in Liuyin Pavilion. You go there first, and ask them if there are any shortages or any requirements. I will discuss with your father how to deal with the matter of the Taifu, and then go there." Gu Shuixiu likes Bai Tongyu's filial piety and respect, and gently asks her to take the child away.

Then he frowned and discussed with Dong Chenghu how to solve the problem of the Pei family.
