Reborn imperial concubine
Chapter 6
Gu Sheng fell asleep staring dazedly in his thoughts, at around four o'clock in the morning, outside the window was the golden crow falling to the west, and the jade rabbit rising to the east.
Half asleep and half awake, Gu Sheng vaguely felt that she was lifted up by a sweet embrace, and then gently pressed her head against the pillow and tucked in the quilt.
Gu Sheng squinted his eyes in a daze, and saw a piece of soft lotus root purple satin robe in front of his eyes, filled with a reassuring fragrance, which made her more sleepy.
"Mother..." Gu Sheng hummed vaguely.
Hearing the words, the person in front of her instantly smiled brightly at her, stretched out a soft white tip, brushed her pink cheeks, lowered her head and whispered in her ear, "Go to sleep, mother will accompany you."
Early the next morning, Gu Sheng woke up in Yan's embrace.
It was rare for Yan to wake up after her, probably because he was tired from worshiping Buddha in the temple all day yesterday.
Gu Sheng obediently stayed in her arms without making a sound.
At the seventh quarter of Yin time, when the sky lightened slightly, there was the sound of footsteps in the main room, and the night watch girl called out softly from outside the bedroom: "Ma'am, someone from the west wing has brought a fan to my sister."
Yan Shi was in a light sleep, and after the report was announced, she slowly opened her eyes, her delicate eyebrows stretched out, although there was no powder or daisy, they were already full like a lotus emerging from water, bright like a bright moon in the sky, and there was a little bit of excitement between her glances. Confused when he first woke up, his eyes were like water and mist.
She lowered her head to look at the child in her arms, only to realize that Gu Sheng's eyes were as black as lacquer, staring at her.
Yan Shi pulled the corners of her mouth, her smile was like a spring breeze breaking through ice, her voice was a little hoarse when she just woke up, and she said softly: "Silly girl, what are you looking at? How long have you been awake? You don't even call out for your mother."
When Yan came back yesterday, she had heard Shiliu talk about Gu Rao and Gu Sheng's quarrel over the round fan, and guessed that the fan would be delivered from the west chamber soon, so she didn't rush, and ordered the servants to come in, change clothes and wash.
It took about a cup of tea before she took Gu Sheng out of the bedroom with the curtain lifted.
"Ma'am." All the servants in the hall squatted down and blessed.
Gu Sheng followed behind Yan Shi, and glanced at the person coming from the west wing. It was Gu Rao's nanny, Aunt Wang.
This Aunt Wang is considered a very important person among the servants in the backyard. Gu Rao asked her to come personally to deliver the round fan, but she didn't know what she was thinking.
Yan Shi meandered to the grand teacher's chair, turned around and sat down, and waited for the girl to hug Gu Sheng beside her, then said leisurely: "I heard that someone is coming from the west wing, I think it's Shen Shi who came to pay my respects. .”
These words made Aunt Wang's face turn pale, and she smiled awkwardly: "Aunt Shen has caught a cold recently, and she was worried about disturbing the health of Madam and the second young lady, so she didn't dare to come to the house to say hello to Madam."
Aunt Wang explained on her lips, but her teeth itch with hatred in her heart, she said that the main house is now in name only, Mr. Gu hasn't come to take care of him for ten days and a half months, and the position of mistress Yan is just an empty shelf, and she is still there. Dare to ridicule their favored master, Aunt Shen, really knows nothing!
Hateful, hateful, Aunt Wang did not dare to show off in front of the Yan family, because this Yan family was born with an aura of calmness and self-prestige. After all, she is the daughter of the Marquis's mansion, and she has more than Master Gu. Innate majesty.
Yan Shi didn't talk to her too much, she raised her hand to ask the girl to pass the fan box from Aunt Wang, and opened it openly in front of her face, only took a look, then her face darkened, and she immediately raised her eyes and stared at the hall. Aunt Wang standing bowed.
Gu Sheng was also frightened by his mother's reaction, leaned over suspiciously and looked into the wooden box on Yan's lap, and immediately couldn't help frowning——
The round fan lying in the box was filthy, all the petals were stained black with ink, and several colorful butterflies were pierced by sharp objects. A delicate double-sided embroidered round fan with colorful butterflies around peonies is now becoming It was full of evil spirits, and it was very decadent.
Before Gu Sheng could react, he saw Yan's sapphire hand slapping the wooden box to the ground with a slap, and sternly reprimanded: "You are so brave!"
Aunt Wang seemed to have expected Yan Shi's reaction long ago, so she just lowered her head in feigned panic and replied: "Ma'am, I was just ordered to deliver the fan, if there is anything wrong, please tell me and let me take it back. "
That's why Gu Rao specially sent Aunt Wang to deliver the round fan. She expected that Yan would not dare to vent her anger on her nanny, so she specially asked her to present the dilapidated round fan to Yan's embarrassment.
Afraid of scaring her daughter, Yan suppressed her anger but couldn't hide her shortness of breath. Seeing this, Gu Sheng leaned over and hugged her arm, and called out sweetly: "Mother, I already have a fan with a blue background, so I don't want this." Let it rot!"
Yan Shi was stunned, and looked down at the fleshy little daughter in her arms, feeling a sudden warmth in her chest.
In the past month, she has always felt that her daughter has become much more well-behaved and sensible. Although she is still cute and cute, no matter how big or small, this little guy will try her best to make her happy.
Thinking of this, most of the anger in Yan's chest had subsided, and she lovingly ran down Gu Sheng's soft hair, waving for Aunt Wang to leave.
After the person left, Yan ordered a few little girls to find a place to destroy the fan.
Gu Sheng was planning to use this fan to fan Master Gu, but she didn't believe that Gu Xuanqing could indulge Gu Rao with such a narrow and vicious mind.
But mother is such a person who can't see the bad luck, Gu Sheng just opened his mouth, but hesitated to speak, blinked his eyes, watched the fan being taken out by the girl, but still didn't stop her.
Sure enough, the most important thing is to please the mother, there are plenty of opportunities for revenge.
Gu Sheng watched the fan being sent out so intently, but Yan Shi misunderstood it by mistake. She thought that her daughter was just pretending not to like it, but she actually still had nostalgia for this dilapidated fan.
This made Yan's heart ache, so she raised her head and told Nanny Liu, "Go to the front yard and ask your second brother to see where you bought this fan."
Gu Sheng was taken aback for a moment, then quickly raised his head and said, "Mother, what are you doing asking about this?"
Gu Yifei was able to bring back four of this kind of round fan embroidered as a tribute, most likely it was rewarded by some prince or nobleman. If you really want to spend money to buy it, you can't buy one for 100 taels!
This is not a valuable item that her mother and son can afford. Yan's monthly salary is 15 taels. After Gu Sheng was born, he added another five taels, making a total of 20 taels a month.
20 taels, although it is enough for an ordinary farmer's annual expenses, but for Yan Ruhua, it is not enough to maintain the appearance of the Viscountess.
Moreover, she never used her dowry, and planned to take it away with Gu Sheng when she got married, so her daily expenses were only 20 taels of silver, and there was little balance.
Gu Sheng didn't want to look up at Yan Shi and get anxious after half a year of pickles and radishes because of the broken fan.
Seeing that she was agitated, Yan explained gently: "Mother will buy you another good one."
"No!" Gu Sheng's little head was shaking like a rattle drum, and he thought, "Do you know how much this one is worth, mother! Once word of the inquiring about the price spreads, you can even tighten your belt and buy it!"
But he pushed back and said: "Sheng'er don't want it, I think of my second sister when I see that fan, I..." Gu Sheng held his mouth, and dared not speak further.
"I don't like Second Sister" naturally can't say it out, there are at least three or five Aunt Shen's eyeliner in this room.
Relying on the memory of his previous life, Gu Sheng can basically recognize who is the inner ghost, but because he is still young, he can't clean up these gangsters and maids for the time being.
In order not to fall into the trap, Gu Sheng had no choice but to communicate with Yan with his eyes.
Fortunately, although Yan's temperament is straightforward, she is not slow, and immediately understood what her daughter meant, so she stopped insisting.
After winter came, Aunt Shen hadn't gone to the village yet, and Gu Sheng was a little anxious. She remembered that the pomegranate had an accident on the eve of her birthday, but she wasn't sure if it was this year.
Because of guessing that she had something to do with Gu Rao, she had to stay in the house more peacefully than before and never go out.
In this way, I finally made it to my fifth birthday.
At first, he thought that this incident had been successfully avoided, until a month later, Gu Sheng accidentally saw the silk official document in Gu Xuanqing's study.
At that time, Gu Xuanqing was telling her to learn to read and write. She was standing on the armchair in front of Nanmu Chang's desk, but her eyes were all attracted by the official documents spread out on the side.
She had seen the official document in maroon silk cloth in the study of His Highness the Second Highness, it was the mansion newspaper distributed by the Secretary of General Administration to the [-] major yamen in the capital, and all urgent reports on important matters inside and outside the court would be published in this official document.
Gu Sheng has no interest in government affairs, but on the mansion newspaper, there is a line of big characters written in seal script that startled her——
Concubine Yougui gave birth to a baby girl on the tenth day of the twelfth lunar month in the 36th year of Qiyou. She was a super-rank emperor and was very happy with the Sacred Heart.
Gu Sheng felt his heart stopped beating for a moment, only to recover after being called out by Gu Xuanqing, and then went back to the room.
Concubine You gave birth to a daughter.
Gu Sheng was carried back to the house by Pomegranate in a daze, his heart was agitated——
The super-grade emperor, he must be talking about His Ninth Prince, this guy...was born.
It is really hard to find a super-quality dragon girl. Emperor Qi You was so excited that he organized an additional sutra feast ceremony. After the Hanlin University scholar lectured, all nobles above viscount and above could bring their family members to Fengtian Hall to enjoy the banquet.
This reminded Gu Sheng that she still had an impression of this grand and luxurious banquet, remembering that after the end, Pomegranate was waiting for her by the carriage outside the palace.
In other words, pomegranate didn't have an accident this year, and she will have to worry about it for another year.
What bothered her even more was that His Ninth Prince was born!
Gu Sheng clenched her small fists, her mind kept turning over her past life, her "extremely unpleasant" encounter with His Highness Ninth Prince...
"Jiang Chenyue..." Gu Sheng murmured the name of His Highness Nine, feeling filled with emotion.
He really lives up to his name. In terms of the appearance of His Highness Nine, he has the color of a sinking fish and the posture of a closed moon. He has inherited the high nose, deep eyes and delicate outline of the Princess of Northern Europe, and also has the delicate skin texture, delicate and elegant appearance of the emperor of the Xia Dynasty. specialty.
Regardless of appearance or strength, this Ninth Prince, who is famous in the capital, can be said to satisfy the ultimate fantasies of the men and women of the Xia Dynasty, but it is a pity that without the crucial hardware of "infatuation and single-mindedness", he is just like Gu Sheng. The Second Highness in my heart is far behind.
Recalling the stunning figure of His Highness Ninth Prince, and the words and deeds he said to her on the day they met, Gu Sheng felt all kinds of feelings in his heart, and finally they all came together in one sentence - "Scum!"
Half asleep and half awake, Gu Sheng vaguely felt that she was lifted up by a sweet embrace, and then gently pressed her head against the pillow and tucked in the quilt.
Gu Sheng squinted his eyes in a daze, and saw a piece of soft lotus root purple satin robe in front of his eyes, filled with a reassuring fragrance, which made her more sleepy.
