Chapter 234: Identity

Liu Zhao secretly held Gu Jiu's hand, as if to give her courage.
Gu Jiu wanted to say that she was fine, she was not that vulnerable.
Liu Zhao let go of Gu Jiu's hand, and said to Empress Chong Shu: "If grandmother is dissatisfied, come directly to me, why do you embarrass Xiao Jiu?"
Concubine Shu narrowed her eyes slightly and stared at Liu Zhao: "Are you accusing this palace?"
Liu Zhao said in a deep voice, "Grandson dare not."
"Since you dare not, then don't talk nonsense."
Concubine Shu sternly scolded.
Gu Jiu couldn't help it, and wanted to stand up and explain a few words.
Liu Zhao sensed her intention and decisively held her down.
Liu Zhao said in a cold tone: "It seems that grandmother does not welcome the arrival of grandson and Xiao Jiu. In that case, grandson and Xiao Jiu will leave."
Concubine Shu coldly snorted, "Did this palace let you leave? I think you are clearly dissatisfied with this palace. For a woman, it is more and more presumptuous to dare to talk back to this palace."
Liu Zhao said in a loud voice: "Xiao Jiu is not an ordinary woman, she is my wife."
"You presumptuous!"
"I was presumptuous and learned from my father. If my grandmother wants to inquire, go to my father. Ask him how to get on the beam or not get the beam crooked."
"You, you dare to arrange your father, you are not filial."
"The grandson is filial and not filial, so I asked my grandmother to listen to what my father said. Goodbye!"
This time, Liu Zhao got up and walked straight out of the hall.
Gu Jiu stood up, bowed to Concubine Shu, and left after Liu Zhao.
Concubine Shu was so angry that she smashed a tea set.
The palace man persuaded: "The empress will calm down her anger."
Concubine Shu's expression was distorted, "How can I calm down my anger? Smelly boy, he has been unlovable and irritable since childhood. What is so good about that Gu Jiu, Liu Zhao actually defended her like this."
The palace official whispered: "The son's wife is just the newlywed Yaner at this time, and she has a deep affection. The son's protection of the wife is also excusable.
But no matter how good the relationship is, it will fade away. When the time comes, the empress only needs to push from behind, and she can easily push Madam Zhao into the abyss of immortality.
If she complains about herself, she will eventually become a disgusting woman. "
Concubine Shu turned her anger into joy and nodded secretly, "You are right, this palace is too anxious today. Wait for a while, when they have passed the wedding, this palace will teach Gu Jiu again."
"The mother is wise."
Liu Zhao was so angry that he left the Changchun Palace and kept a coffin face.
Gu Jiu followed his footsteps and said softly, "Thank you!"
"No need to thank you, you and me, my son should defend you."
Gu Jiu lowered his head and smiled, and then persuaded: "Don't breathe. I don't care about what the empress said."
Liu Zhao stared at her, "Why don’t you care. You are my wife, but you don’t get the respect you deserve. On the contrary, you are taken lightly. Why don’t you care? Could it be that you don’t care about your identity at all in your heart? Being despised by others? Do you know that when others despise you, it is tantamount to not giving your son a face."
Gu Jiu frowned slightly and looked at Liu Zhao with a strange expression.
Why is he so angry?
Gu Jiu was not polite, and said bluntly: "I said I didn't care, it was not that I didn't care about my identity. The lady was angry today, is she really coming to me?
The empress is obviously dissatisfied with you, and she takes the opportunity to pick up on my family background and want to embarrass me.
And it is obvious that the empress is not dissatisfied with you overnight.
She used an excuse to beat you and me. This is not the first time today, and it will certainly not be the last.
If you have to care about every time, throughout the year, how can there be an Ann birthday.
Or if my mother is picky about me, I have to cry bitterly and live to death, do I care?
If you need to care about it superficially, I can show it to you now. "
"To shut up!"
Liu Zhao lightly scolded Gu Jiu.
Gu Jiu said with a cold face, "Don't forget, this is in the palace, it's the second day of our wedding. If you want to get angry at me, when you return to the palace, I will give you a chance to speak clearly."
Liu Zhao took a deep breath, "You know this is in the palace, so you dare to teach me. Are you really afraid of being seen and spreading rumors?"
Gu Jiu bowed his head, "I don't know what kind of crazy you made today. But I want to remind you that it's getting late, and you have to go to see the imperial concubine and the concubine.
After that, I have to go to Shaofu. After leaving the palace, I have to visit all the princes and concubines.
Today's schedule is very tight, the mother concubine reminded us and told us to hurry back to have dinner. Continue to waste time here, I am afraid that so many relatives will not be able to leave until dark. "
Liu Zhao looked up at the sky, his mood was gloomy and his eyes were cold.
The servant Lin Shuping reminded quietly: "My son, the madam is right. Time is tight, so let's talk about it when you return to the palace."
Liu Zhao looked at Gu Jiu and said with deep meaning: "I am too anxious. Let's go and see the concubine empress."
Gu Jiu followed in silence.
Qiaomei was very worried. It was not a good sign that she would argue on the second day of the wedding.
Mother Fang reminded her in a low voice, "Don't think about it. Some things are accumulated over the years. You can only take care of your good wife and don't worry about other things."
Ome nodded.
Came to Ganlu Palace, waiting for the palace staff to inform.
Gu Jiu stood under the eaves, separated by two positions from Liu Zhao.
She looked at the garden.
In winter, the garden is in depression.
A gust of wind came, and the fallen leaves fell.
The sweeping maids clean up the fallen leaves on the ground in time to ensure that the ground is clean at all times.
When the Sasa maid stood up, Gu Jiu's eyes widened, and she couldn't believe it.
Jiang Yan glanced at Gu Jiu secretly.
When she learned that Gongzi Zhao and Madam Zhao were coming to visit the imperial concubine, she changed shifts and waited.
Huangtian paid off and finally let her see it.
Qingmei also recognized Jiang Yan, and quickly covered her mouth for fear that she would call out.
Mother Fang had never seen Jiang Yan, so she was very confused.
The handkerchief in Gu Jiu's hand fell to the ground. The wind rolled and fell into the yard.
"Madam's handkerchief."
Qingmei whispered.
Jiang Yan had quick eyes and quick hands, and picked up the handkerchief immediately and sent it to Gu Jiu.
"This is Madam's handkerchief."
Gu Jiu took the handkerchief and said, "If you have work, you can withdraw."
The moment the hands of the two touched, there was something in Jiang Yan's hand.
Jiang Yan quickly put his hand on the back and bowed back.
Gu Jiu watched her leave.
Liu Zhao followed Gu Jiu's gaze and stared at Jiang Yan's back.
He took the initiative to approach Gu Jiu and asked quietly, "Do you know her?"
Gu Jiu felt guilty at first, and then admitted frankly.
Liu Zhao narrowed his eyes and looked thoughtful.
Gu Jiu grabbed Liu Zhao's hand abruptly and shook his head slightly.
Jiang Yan is just a maid, who is of no use.
Gu Jiu didn't want Jiang Yan to die because of her.
When she gave Jiang Yan the opportunity to climb Gaozhi, she didn't let Jiang Yan die.
Liu Zhao held Gu Jiu's hand with his backhand, his eyes deep.
The strength in his hands is so strong that he seems suspicious.
What do you suspect?
Gu Jiu was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized.
Is Liu Zhao suspecting that she secretly intervened in the palace?
Gu Jiu wanted to break free.
Liu Zhao clung to her hand firmly and never let go.
He whispered: "Go back and talk about it."
Gu Jiu relaxed immediately.
Just at this time, the palace people came to invite, "The imperial concubine and lady invite the son and wife to the main hall."
"Please lead the way."
Jiang Yan returned to the room as usual, locked the door behind her, and then spread her palms.
Two silver notes, two hundred taels.
Jiang Yan covered her face and cried bitterly.
She slid down to the ground and bit her arm fiercely.
Don't cry, never cry.
But why is my heart so sad and sad. Tears couldn't stop falling.
Two hundred taels of silver bills were like a beacon in the dark night, which made Jiang Yan cry bitterly, but felt very lucky.
Jiang Yan cried happily. After crying, she cleaned her face and rekindled her fighting spirit.
Concubine Xue Gui was polite to both Liu Zhao and Gu Jiu without any embarrassment.
"Liu Zhao, you have a good vision, and you caught Xiao Jiu at a glance. Xiao Jiu, this child in the palace, likes it when he looks at it, it's really painful."
Liu Zhao first glanced at Gu Jiu, and then said: "The mother said that I am lucky enough to marry Xiao Jiu as his wife."
Guifei Xue laughed, "My palace just likes your frankness. Xiao Jiu, live your life with Liu Zhao, and ignore the gossip outside."
Gu Jiu bowed and responded, "Follow the teachings of your mother."
Concubine Xue gave off tea and said, "You are short of time, this palace will not keep you."
Liu Zhao and Gu Jiu stood up and left.
Gu Jiu got a set of head jewellery, a meeting gift from Concubine Xue Gui.
Liu Zhao stared at the jewellery in Qingmei's hands with a cold expression.
Qingmei was so frightened that she almost threw out the top jewelry given by Xue Guifei. The son's eyes are too scary.
Liu Zhao said nothing and continued on the next journey.
After seeing all the empresses in the palace, he went to Shaofu again.
Shaofu Jialing has waited for a long time.
Clap your hands, the official comes with a tray.
"Please take a look at the son's wife."
On the tray are placed a seal, a jade butterfly, and a gold book.
With these three things, it means that Gu Jiu's name has been on the royal family tree, and he has truly become the royal grandson's wife.
Jade Butterfly Golden Book, a status symbol.
The seal is kept on file for daily use. The seal and signature represent Gu Jiu's wishes, words and deeds.
"Thanks for your hard work, you will be ready so soon." Liu Zhao said politely.
Shaofu Jialing stroked his beard and smiled implicitly, "You are my son. Madam, would you like to try the seal?"
Gu Jiu stepped forward with a smile, picked up the seal, dipped it with ink pad, and left a signature on the blank paper.
The four characters "Mrs. Zhao" made Gu Jiu very satisfied.
She smiled and said, "Thank you, Sir Jialing, I am very satisfied."
"That's good."
The green plum is packed with a lotus seal, which is convenient for Gu Jiu to carry with him.
The jade butterfly is the same as the gold book, kept by the servant Lin Shuping.
Saying goodbye to the order of the Shaofu family, the two continued to meet non-stop.
Other relatives don't need to go, and you must go to the palace of the princes and princes. Those are all Liu Zhao's uncle.
When the family walked down, Gu Jiu gave out many meeting gifts and sealed many purses. At the same time, I also received a bunch of meeting gifts.
When it got dark, Gu Jiu sat in the carriage and returned tiredly to the palace.
As soon as she got off the carriage, the second wife came to report.
"Enlighten the grandson, the eldest lady, the banquet is ready. The princess ordered that after the son's wife returns, go directly to the Jinxiu Pavilion.
Liu Zhao nodded and said to Gu Jiu: "Let's go, go to Jinxiu Pavilion."
Gu Jiu is still unfamiliar with the palace, and Jinxiu Pavilion hasn't figured out where. Can only follow Liu Zhao and walk all the way.
When I arrived at the Jinxiu Pavilion, I heard bursts of laughter from inside.
The princess and empress are happy.
At today's dinner, everyone from the palace gathered together. The two side concubines, plus the beauties of grade, are all talented people here.
Next to King Ning, apart from Princess Ning and the two side concubines, the stunning women of the same water were all amorous.
"Finally came back."
King Ning laughed loudly and greeted Liu Zhao and Gu Jiu to get to the table quickly.
Gu Jiu stepped forward to salute, and then sat with the sister-in-laws.
Liu Zhao and his brothers sat at a table.
Princess Ning Pei coughed slightly and everyone was quiet.
She said to Liu Zhao: "The concubine Shu sent someone to send the meeting gift and put it at the princess's place. You will send someone to take it away later."
King Ning was surprised, "Why did the mother-in-law send the meeting ceremony to the palace. Zhao'er, didn't you go to see your grandmother?"
Liu Zhao bowed slightly and said, "I and Xiao Jiu went into the palace, first to see the emperor's grandfather, and then to see the grandmother. The grandmother may have appreciated our inconvenience, so she sent the meeting ceremony to the palace."
King Ning said oh, and did not delve into the matter.
Pei's gaze swept across Gu Jiu's face, and asked: "But you didn't speak properly and angered Consort Shu?"
"Daughter-in-law dare not."
Pei smiled, "It stands to reason, since it is a meeting ceremony, it should be delivered to you. As a result, Empress Shu sent someone to send the meeting ceremony to the palace. If you did not offend Empress Shu, this princess would not believe it."
Gu Jiu raised her eyebrows, how come one or two, they all came at her.
Are you really bullying as a new wife?
But today, Gu Jiu is destined to have no room to play.
Liu Zhao preemptively said: "I didn't speak properly and angered my grandmother."
Pei was annoyed, Liu Zhao defended Gu Jiu, and Liu Zhao didn't know how to measure.
She sternly said: "Why did you anger Consort Shu?"
"Do you need a reason to offend grandmother?" Liu Zhao said frankly.
Pei was furious.
King Ning coughed slightly, "Boss, how do you talk. You kid, you have a bad temper, no wonder you are not likable."
"My father taught me." Liu Zhao admitted his mistake quickly.
Pei was annoyed, and Chongning Wang said, "You are used to him."
King Ning laughed, "Okay, it's rare for the whole family to get together for a meal today, so you don't need to say a few words. Let's start!"
King Ning gave an order, and the servants served food and wine.
The wines and dishes are rich and taste good. The atmosphere in the hall gradually became lively.
Gu Jiu picked up the wine glass, "Sisters, brothers and sisters, I toast everyone."
"My sister-in-law is polite, we should respect my sister-in-law." Ouyang Fu cheered.
Gu Jiu chuckled softly: "I'm here for the first time. If there is something wrong, I would like to ask your brothers and sisters for advice."
Ouyang Fu said: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, if you have any questions, just ask someone to ask me."
Xiao Qin'er smiled and said, "Sister-in-law and second-in-law are really good at first sight. People who don't know, think you were good sisters in the past."
Gu Jiu laughed, "My second sibling and I hit it off. The fourth sibling envy us?"
Xiao Qin'er pursed her lips and smiled, "Sister-in-law, don't laugh, how can I envy you. Didn't the sister-in-law talk about drinking, why not drink."
Gu Jiu's eyebrows moved slightly, and he picked up the wine glass, doing nothing.
"Sister-in-law is a good drinker. I toast sister-in-law a glass."
Xiao Qin'er was the first to toast.
Gu Jiu took her hand, "Four younger siblings drink this glass of wine before talking, you can't be shameless."
Xiao Qin'er was a little embarrassed, "How can I be fooling, my sister-in-law is joking again."
Gu Jiu looked at her with a smile, just waiting for her to drink.
Xiao Qin'er twisted her waist, "Drink and drink."
After speaking, he picked up the wine glass and cleaned it.
Gu Jiu laughed, "The four younger siblings have a good drink, come, I will offer another drink to the four siblings alone."
In this way, Gu Jiu found various reasons to pour Xiao Qin'er's wine.
If Xiao Qin'er didn't drink, Gu Jiu would use agitation.
Xiao Qin'er didn't fight for the buns, and Gu Jiu couldn't read anything.
She drank one drink after another, and quickly became drunk.
Ouyang Fu smiled secretly, "Sister-in-law is a good drinker."
Gu Jiu also drank a lot tonight, but she would be sober after taking the medicine beforehand.
She smiled and said: "The fourth younger siblings are really strong tempered, I don't let her drink, she still wants to drink."
Ouyang Fu complained inwardly: Xiao Qin'er was stimulated like that by you, can it be strong?
I have to say that Gu Jiu will really stir people's hearts. In a few words, Xiao Qin'er was forced to drink into a pool of mud.
Princess Pei was very upset when Xiao Qin'er was drunk.
Secretly ordered his servants to quickly send Xiao Qin'er back to the room, so as not to get drunk and make people laugh.
When her ears were hot, Wu Meiren suddenly clutched her abdomen and screamed, "I, my stomach hurts. Prince save me, child, child in my stomach, save the child."
Everyone's discoloration changed, and the needle in the hall could be heard.
Is Wu Meiren pregnant?
Princess Pei stared at Wu Meiren, why did she not know that Wu Meiren was pregnant?
