"The Queen is wise," Nanny Wang chanted with her hands clasped together in the carriage.
At this time, Concubine Zhao and Cui Yu were dug out from the rubble by the eunuchs. Both of them were covered in blood and mud, and their original appearance was unrecognizable at all.
Xianzong did not dare to go forward to see, and asked Jingzhong from a distance: "How is Concubine Zhao?"
Jingzhong squatted down and felt Concubine Zhao's breath. There was a faint breath floating on his fingertips. Jing Dazong breathed a sigh of relief and reported to Emperor Xianzong loudly: "Your Majesty, the Queen is still breathing!"
"Imperial Physician," Emperor Xianzong called to the imperial physicians who were already on standby, "Go and see how Concubine Zhao is doing!"
The beam that pressed down on Concubine Zhao was an auxiliary beam and was not very thick. The main beams that hit the bed were blocked by the bed frames at the head and foot of the bed. The two bed frames saved Concubine Zhao and Cui Yu who was lying under the bed.
"Go and invite the imperial preceptor to the palace," Xianzong ordered a eunuch beside him. He had to ask the imperial preceptor, who was a high-ranking monk, to think of a solution. He couldn't let the queen be struck by lightning every day.
Yu Xiaoxiao was standing in front of the gate of the Marquis of Zhenguo Mansion. She had no requirements for accommodation, so she didn't feel anything when looking at the wealthy family in front of her. However, Gu Chen and Gu Xingnuo felt mixed emotions when they saw the empty door lintel after the plaque with the words "Marquis of Zhenguo Mansion" was removed. They were sad because they were loyal to the country but were harmed by treacherous officials. They were happy because their family was still alive. Being alive is better than anything else, isn't it?
The chief eunuch, who was ordered to help the Gu family move, trotted out of the door and saluted Yu Xiaoxiao first.
Yu Xiaoxiao didn't know what the eunuch was here for. She nodded to him and said to Gu Chen and Gu Xingnuo, "Grandpa, big brother, is this our home? Let's go in."
Seeing the family was about to go in, the chief eunuch hurriedly asked Yu Xiaoxiao, "Princess, what do you think the plaque in this mansion says?"
Yu Xiao: "What is a plaque?"
The chief eunuch thought that if he explained to Her Royal Highness the Princess what the plaque was, wouldn't it be disrespectful to Her Royal Highness the Princess? You don't even know what a plaque is, are you stupid, Princess?
After all, Nanny Wang had been hanging out with Yu Xiaoxiao for a few months, and she knew that her princess was not worldly-wise. She pointed to the spot on top of the gate and said, "That's where the name is hung."
The chief eunuch said, "The emperor has given an oral order, saying that this mansion can be called the Princess's Mansion." After saying this, he waited for Princess Linglong to kneel down and kowtow to thank the emperor for his grace.
The grandfather and grandson of the Gu family, as well as Gu Xingyan and other Gu family members who came out with the old lady, all froze in their expressions. This mansion is called the Princess's Mansion? Doesn't that mean Gu Xinglang is married into the family? Is their family a burden who followed Gu Xinglang to the Princess's Mansion to eat for a living?
Yu Xiaoxiao looked up at the empty top of the gate. She didn't want to be the daughter of that tyrant. She was already married and still called the eldest princess Mao? "This is the Gu family," Yu Xiaoxiao said to the chief eunuch, "Just write the two words Gu family."
"Gu family?" The eunuch in charge was afraid that he had heard it wrong.
Yu Xiaoxiao asked Gu Chen: "Grandpa, should I call him this?"
Gu Chen didn't see any false expression on Yu Xiaoxiao's face. The old marshal was a straightforward person. Since his third grandson's wife didn't treat him as an outsider, he must also treat this grandson's wife as a member of the Gu family. The old man said, "Let's call it the Gu Mansion."
Yu Xiaoxiao didn't think twice and said to the chief eunuch, "Call the Gu Mansion. Ask my grandfather about family matters."
The eunuch in charge had no choice but to obey the order.
"Let's go," Gu Chen laughed loudly and said to Yu Xiao: "Princess, let's go home and talk."
"Hey," Yu Xiaoxiao agreed to the old man and followed him into the mansion.
Nanny Wei was standing at the bottom of the stairs holding Yu Ziyi. Everyone in Baihong Palace was a little at a loss. Did the eldest princess forget something?
Gu Xingnuo was a steady man. Seeing Yu Xiaoxiao followed the old man into the house regardless of anything, he turned around and walked down the stairs, and said politely to Wei Ma: "Please come in too."
Yu Xiaoxiao had already walked to the old lady's side, called her grandma, and said, "There was a fire at home, are you not hurt?"
The old lady felt uncomfortable like the old man when Yu Xiaoxiao called her grandma, but her heart was warm. She smiled at Yu Xiaoxiao and said, "No one is hurt. We are all fine."
Yu Xiaoxiao breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's fine. Otherwise, I'll have to go find Zhao Qiuming. We can't just let this go!"
The old lady looked Yu Xiaoxiao up and down. She was a beautiful girl with a slender figure, and she didn't look like someone who knew martial arts. The old lady couldn't help but ask, "Princess, do you practice martial arts?"
Yu Xiao: "Yes, my mother was afraid that I would be bullied, so she found a master to teach me martial arts."
Nanny Wang followed behind and the fat on her face trembled. This was the story she made up to deceive Emperor Xianzong at the risk of her life. God knows how the princess ended up like this. Looking at her own princess in her wedding dress walking beside the old lady, Nanny Wang looked up at the sky. Although the Gu family was in trouble for a while and the prince consort was also a crippled man, this family was a good family. Compared to living a life of intrigue and deception in the imperial palace, the empress should be satisfied that the princess married the third son of the Gu family, right?
After the family entered the main hall, except for Gu Chen and Gu Xingnuo, everyone else looked at Yu Ziyi who was held in Yu Xiaoxiao's hand again.
Gu Chen said to the old lady and the others, "This is the Seventh Prince. He will be kept by the Princess for the time being."
The old lady and several women in the inner palace were shocked. Why was such a dignified prince not being raised in the imperial palace but being raised by a married princess?
Yu Xiaoxiao stuffed Yu Ziyi back into Gu Xingnuo's arms and said, "I was afraid that he wouldn't live long in the palace, so I brought him out to raise him. Don't worry, grandma, he doesn't eat much and is easy to raise."
The old lady nearly fell to the ground. How could this guy dare to say anything?
Gu Xingnuo was already the father of two children, and he was very comfortable holding Yu Ziyi. He said to the old lady, "Grandma, let's set up a separate courtyard for His Highness the Seventh Prince to live in. It would be best if he lives next to His Highness the Princess."
Yu Xiaoxiao wanted to shout no, she didn't want to see this professional swindler again, but looking at the people sitting in the main hall, they were not related to Yu Ziyi, why should they support Yu Ziyi? Yu Xiaoxiao lowered her head and tacitly agreed to Gu Xingnuo's proposal.
The old lady hurriedly called the housekeeper to come and clean up a courtyard to settle Yu Ziyi and his group.
After Nanny Wei carried Yu Ziyi away, the old lady said to Old Master Gu, "The new room for Her Royal Highness the Princess and Xinglang has been redecorated. Lord Ying and his men have also sent the cook from the mansion. He is already busy in the kitchen and will not delay the wedding banquet tonight."
Old Master Gu said, "Let's invite another opera troupe. We will still have the wedding banquet tonight. I will also build a stage and invite people to listen to the opera." The eldest princess' wedding was disrupted by Zhao Qiumin and his troops. He had to compensate his granddaughter-in-law, and he had no choice but to hold a lavish wedding.
