"Mom, don't worry about this matter." Su Qi knew Yun Manyu's attitude of settling things peacefully.
"She is your aunt after all. Besides, we won't agree to this matter."
"Humph. If it's a good thing, why are you so unhappy about finding it for my uncle? I'm the most filial person." Su Qi's temper flared up, so naturally he wouldn't speak too softly. "If you plead again, I'll ask for three, not one."
Yun Manyu shut up.
never mind.
Su Qi was right. She had always thought that the Yun family's eldest aunt was very powerful. Naturally, she tried to avoid her and just ignore her.
"As you wish."
Su Qi didn't stay here for long before returning. Chong Yun Manyu had been talking to her seriously just now, and she felt bored.
Gu Beiheng and Zhan Wang in Dongqi were handling things.
Someone outside said that the guards of His Royal Highness the Third Prince of Dashun were coming.
I don't know why.
Gu Beiheng had a bad feeling in his heart.
He had received a letter from Li Dapao, saying that the old prince of Rongshan had been captured and handed over to the third prince.
As for Prince Rongshan's sons, Prince Jing and Prince Hui, they surrendered.
Gu Beiheng told Li Dapao not to make things difficult for the two of them.
In the future, they would be granted the title of Duke and could go wherever they wanted. Prince Jing and Prince Hui, thinking of their friendship with Gu Beiheng and his wife, naturally accepted their arrangement.
The two of them sent General Helian and General Li Hao to brief the Third Prince and Li Dapao early on.
"Master." Long Tianyi spoke again.
Gu Beiheng withdrew his thoughts and asked, "Are there only guards?"
"There's also a coffin. It's a bit big."
Gu Beiheng rushed out.
The War King also followed him out.
Gu Beiheng always remembered the Third Prince, their childhood playmate. The Third Prince was very clever when he was young and always teased Gu Beiheng, who was devoted to his martial arts training.
From Gu Beiheng went to the Northwest Camp.
As they grew up, they gradually stopped contacting each other to avoid suspicion.
When they met again, they witnessed each other being framed and the third prince's embarrassment.
Gu Beiheng arrived at the gate of the camp.
Although they captured the capital of Dongqi, they did not withdraw their camp and enter the city, simply because the Emperor of Dongqi had escaped.
"General Gu Wang. Our master, he, he... is dead." The guards at that time knelt on the ground and cried inconsolably.
After the death of the Third Prince, their belief in sending the Third Prince to Gu Beiheng kept them alive.
"What's going on? Why didn't General Li's letter mention that the Third Prince was dead?"
The guard kowtowed and said, "Our master has long been determined to die. After killing the old Prince Rongshan and his entire residence, he handed all matters over to General Li."
"The master said he would bring the young master to you. On the way, the master left a letter for his subordinate. He then committed suicide with the young master."
Someone came over on his knees and handed the letter to Gu Beiheng.
Gu Beiheng unfolded the letter and took a look. He confessed in his heart that he had lost hope of living since he saw Rui'er turned into a eunuch.
"Brother Gu, seeing Rui'er like this makes me more desperate than if he had died. I can't face the painful and cautious look in Rui'er's eyes. This is the fatal blow dealt to him by my so-called family."
"Life is too painful. I know that people who commit suicide will not be reborn as human beings. Rui'er and I both think that being human is too painful. We have said that we will not be human beings in our next life."
Gu Beiheng's eyes became moist.
The once elegant prince eventually embarked on a path of no return.
Gu Beiheng ordered people to open the coffin.
The two people, one big and one small, actually left with smiles on their faces.
Perhaps it is a relief for them, father and son.
The War King walked over and took a look, then looked at the two people in the coffin with a serious expression.
"Beiheng. The weather is not that cold yet." King Zhan reminded Gu Beiheng that the burial had to take place in the next two days.
"Come here. First use a secret method to prevent the body from rotting. After I enter the capital and issue an edict, I will bury it according to the standards for a prince of a different surname." Gu Beiheng took another look and had the coffin closed.
"Thank you, General." The guards were surprised that the Third Prince would be buried with the proper burial rites for a prince. "General, our master has one more favor to ask. Please do not use his last name."
"Give him the surname Long, the surname of the Qin Dynasty." Gu Beiheng added, "Recover the remains of his wife and children and bury them all together."
"I am willing to guard the master's grave."
"I agree." Gu Beiheng could see that these people had no hope of survival, but when they saw the third prince being buried with the specifications of a prince, they naturally thought of guarding the tomb.
Long Tianyi took the order and went down to make arrangements.
King Zhan had previously told Gu Beiheng that he didn't need to change his surname back to Long.
Seeing Gu Beiheng say this, something strange ignited in his heart. "Beiheng, you don't need to change your surname."
"Father. In the Gu family, only my mother gives me warmth."
The War King stopped talking.
"I asked Master to bring people here. All the secret passages in the Dongqi Palace have been rerouted. I want to take over the palace as soon as possible."
"I want to go back to Changshan Mansion first." Now there is only finishing work to do, and King Zhan wants to go back to see Qin Wan.
God knows how much I miss her these days.
Gu Beiheng also missed Su Qi.
But he can't leave Dongqi yet.
"Father, you should go back first." Gu Beiheng paused and said, "There are only ten days left. You must come back. Otherwise, I will send a letter to mother. What do you think she will do?"
Gu Beiheng knew how to threaten the War King.
The angry War King stroked his beard and rolled his eyes, but there was nothing he could do.
Between him and Gu Beiheng, Qin Wan naturally chose Gu Beiheng.
"You kid, you're making fun of your father."
Gu Beiheng smiled but said nothing. He also wanted to see Su Qi, and when King Zhan came back, he wanted to go back too.
Su Qi received the secret letter from Ying Wu and thought to herself that she had carefully observed Uncle Yun's preferences. The woman sent to her was tailor-made for him.
These days.
Uncle Yun is already deeply involved in it.
Ying Wu also sent some fertility medication to help the woman named Meng Niang get pregnant sooner. By the time the Yun family's aunt returned to Yunzhou City, it was likely that the woman was already three months pregnant.
He also sent a maid who knew pharmacology over.
Even if Aunt Yun had an idea, there was nothing she could do.
Su Qi wrote a reply, saying that she would do her best to ensure that Meng Niang would have a child and a support system in the future. She would also ensure Meng Niang's status in the Yun family.
"Madam, Aunt Yun brought two girls here. She said she brought some local specialties from Yunzhou City." Bai Zhi said while standing outside in the corridor.
"Is my aunt so kind-hearted? Please invite her to sit in the West Flower Hall."
"yes."
"Baizhi, serve a pot of good tea to my aunt. And ask someone to send some sweet and sour fruits over." A cold look flashed in Su Qi's eyes. She wanted to see if the specialty of Yunzhou City was those two beauties.
"yes."
After Baizhi left.
Su Qi called Yingyi to send the letter away.
According to the schedule, Aunt Yun should have come to see Su Qi long ago. It seemed that Yun Xiayang had been keeping a tight rein on her and hadn't let her come. He didn't know how Aunt Yun had managed to find a chance to escape today.
Su Qi sat slowly in front of the mirror.
Wearing a purple casual suit, Su Qi casually put two pearl hairpins on her head.
that's all.
The aura of the mistress of the house should not be underestimated.
Putting on her wrist the bracelet that Gu Beiheng had given to Su Qi, she stood up and walked to the West Flower Hall.
When she reached the door, Su Qi did not go in immediately.
Aunt Yun, with her hair covered in jewels, was sitting on a chair, drinking tea and talking to a woman in a light yellow dress. "Do you think the Gu Mansion has good conditions? If you enter the Gu Mansion, you will become a concubine in the palace in the future."
The other woman in pink looked envious. "Aunt, Madam Gu must be getting old and losing her beauty. I heard she's already given birth to four children. How can she compare to our youth and beauty?"
"Yes. You should give way."
Aunt Yun smiled awkwardly. She reached out and tapped their foreheads. "What nonsense are you talking about? Su Qi has given birth to several children, so her position is naturally stable. Your mission is to share Su Qi's worries and prevent the General King from setting his eyes on other women."
"And don't forget to promote people in your family." Aunt Yun said happily.
