The daughter of the first wife grew up in the countryside and was extremely powerful

On that day, Liu was hurriedly sent to a temple outside the capital, and it was estimated that she would never be able to return to the capital.

After all, the Yuan family still has to consider the future of their children and cannot let them be stigmatized.

The prince's palace was more low-key because it was just a concubine and they could just kill her secretly.

Although the two main villains were dealt with, Gu Fanchu also knew that the Yuan family might still have some misunderstandings about Sister Yan'er.

But at least it can reduce some obstacles.

As for marriage, it can only come slowly. If she really marries into a family that looks down on her, she will probably not have a good life in the future.

Of course, it also depends on Sister Yan'er's own decision.

The atmosphere in the Gu Mansion has become a little depressed in the past two days because the eldest uncle is about to lead the army to war.

Wang secretly wiped away her tears. It would be a lie to say that she was not worried. Even the old lady was a little weak. Gu Fanchu had visited her several times, but he also knew that heart disease needed to be treated with heart medicine.

After looking for his grandmother, Gu Fanchu went to the study to look for his grandfather.

Gu Mingqing has been in very good health recently, which also proves that Gu Fanchu's method is really good.

Make everyone in the General's Mansion believe that she is indeed capable.

Gu Mingqing also liked this granddaughter more and more.

Seeing her coming, a kind smile appeared on his usually serious face.

"Why did you think of coming to see me today?"

In the past, Gu Mingqing claimed to the outside world that he was still weak, so he rarely met guests. In order to hide his identity, he was also very cautious even at home.

So Gu Fanchu rarely came over except to take his pulse.

"Chu'er greets Grandfather. I came here today because I have some thoughts that I can't figure out and can't make sense of, so I want Grandfather to give me some guidance."

Gu Mingqing asked the men to sit down and had the waiters close the door before he slowly said, "Come on, tell me, what is it that is so puzzling to you?"

"Grandfather, my aunt was diagnosed with pregnancy at her birthday party. Chu'er noticed something interesting about the expressions of His Majesty and the Empress. They didn't want my aunt to be pregnant."

Gu Fanchu spoke directly. If a little girl like her could think of these things, then her grandfather must have thought of them a long time ago.

However, the most important thing is how the General’s Mansion should move forward.

My uncle went to war, and although he won the battle, he encountered some problems on his way back to the capital. When he returned to Beijing, evidence of treason was found in the general's mansion, and he had been detained.

As soon as Gu Yunye entered the capital, His Majesty immediately imprisoned him.

However, the difference between the previous life and this life is that in the previous life, my grandfather forced himself to go to the battlefield and eventually died on the battlefield. But in this life, my grandfather received divine grace due to illness and no longer had to go to the battlefield.

But, will this change what happened in the previous life?

Moreover, although the general's mansion has been cleaned up now, no one knows whether there will be any accidents.

She couldn't risk it.

Gu Mingqing suppressed the smile on his face and looked sharply at the little girl sitting in front of him who was only fourteen years old.

"Then why do you think that is the case?" Gu Mingqing's calm voice was somewhat desolate: "Everyone has seen that His Majesty favors Concubine Xi, why do you think that

"Your Majesty is still wary of the power of our General's Mansion, right? Then... could it be the Emperor's hand in my aunt's inability to conceive over the years?"

Gu Fanchu looked cautious, but his words were very sharp.

"Chu'er, these words must never be mentioned again after leaving Grandfather's study. If you are not careful, it will surely bring disaster to the General's Mansion."

Gu Mingqing sighed inwardly, this child is really smart.

"Grandfather, Chu'er understands the seriousness of this matter and won't speak nonsense."

Gu Fanchu felt bitter and unwilling.

When the Gu family is in need, he will be given supreme honor and favor, but the emperor is very suspicious, and when the power held by the general's mansion is too great, he will be wary.

Even direct suppression.

Poor grandfather and uncle fought hard on the frontier to defend their country, but when they returned to Beijing, they still had to be careful everywhere.

"Then tell me, how can the General's Mansion break the impasse?"

Gu Mingqing did not look down on Gu Fanchu because she was a girl. Instead, he was curious about her opinions.

Gu Fanchu's eyes brightened instantly. Although she had a beautiful face, she said something extremely outrageous:

"Grandfather, since His Majesty is still wary of us, why don't we take advantage of this fear and do something."

"Oh? What are you doing?"

"Save my aunt's child and find a support system for him."

Concubine Xi's current situation is not good. As long as the General's Mansion is still there, Concubine Xi can naturally stay in the palace.

But if someone wants to deliberately frame the General's Mansion, as long as the General's Mansion is defeated, Concubine Xi will probably not have a good ending.

I guess many people are plotting against this child.

Gu Mingqing frowned. Finding a backer was not as easy as just talking about it.

Your Majesty now has only four princes: Crown Prince Pei Qiyu, born to the Empress, Fifth Prince Pei Baizhi, born to Concubine Wen, Sixth Prince Pei Qing'an, born to Concubine Rong, and Ninth Prince Pei Yanxun, born to Concubine Ping.

Although the prince is in poor health, his mother's family is powerful, and Queen Cui is not as kind and harmless as she seems.

Moreover, although Pei Qiyu is weak, he is respectful and humble, and his temperament is unparalleled. Unless he has committed a major fault, the position of crown prince will not be easily demoted.

The emperor seems to favor the fifth prince Pei Bozhi more. He is indeed quite intelligent and has been very ambitious and active in the past two years.

There were also many people in the court who were secretly observing the two of them.

The Sixth Prince Pei Qing'an is a mediocre person with no great talent. He has always been unknown. With several scandals recently, the emperor is also disgusted with him.

The ninth prince, Pei Yanxun, is still young and cannot make any waves for the time being.

"How do you think we can keep Concubine Xi's child? If His Majesty and the Empress don't want this child, I'm afraid they will definitely do something."

A sense of desolation gradually rose in Gu Mingqing's heart.

Your Majesty is on guard against the General's Mansion and feels that his achievements surpass those of the Lord, so he will naturally not give up.

"Grandfather, what do you think of the Crown Prince?"

Gu Fanchu asked.

In the previous life, the prince died in a fight with the fifth prince. The two fought to the death, and in the end, the good-for-nothing Pei Qing'an took advantage of the situation.

She had never met the prince, but she had heard from others that he was kind to others and had a good reputation.

I wonder if the general's mansion can escape unscathed if the prince takes the throne.

"These things are not something a little girl like you should worry about! Don't mention these things to anyone."

Gu Mingqing interrupted the topic and seriously warned the ignorant little girl.

"Yes...I understand, Grandfather!"

Gu Fanchu also knew that his idea was too naive, but as long as he started, he believed that his grandfather would have his own considerations.

"Chu'er's last thought is, if His Majesty wants to find fault with our General's Mansion, it will be nothing more than something related to the enemy country. Grandfather, you should be careful!"
