This was nothing to him at all. As for whether Wang objected or not, he didn't care at all.
Promoting Qin to be a co-wife is also a good thing for Concubine Gu. It is impossible for her to become a concubine and still be a concubine in the future. That would be shameful for him.
Gu Mingyuan felt so happy that he couldn't hide the smile on his face. He folded the letter and put it into his sleeve.
Then he ordered his servants to find him some good snacks so that he could have a good chat and a few drinks with the two messengers.
Because of Gu Xiaoqiao's letter, Gu Mingyuan's attitude towards Qin took a 180-degree turn.
Not only did he say in front of the servants in the mansion that he wanted to promote Qin to a co-wife, but he also spoke to her in a soft and gentle voice, even more gently than before.
When Wang heard the news, she had a big fight with Gu Mingyuan that night and even smashed the house to pieces.
"You heartless thing!"
Gu Mingyuan glared at Wang with gritted teeth, wishing he could tear her into pieces. "Have you had enough of this?"
"I'm not satisfied!"
Wang smashed things and accused Gu Mingyuan, "Back then, your family was so poor, but my father still betrothed me to you. He thought you would be a good official. He promised me that I would be the head of the family and that I would be the only legal wife!"
"And now you're just looking at me. As soon as that bitch's daughter gained favor, you couldn't wait to make her your equal wife. Do you still have any conscience? If I keep putting up with this, I'm afraid someone will snatch my position as the mistress of the house away!"
"Wang Haixia, watch your words. How can you call her a bitch all the time? Qin is Concubine Gu's biological mother. If you keep talking like this, don't blame me for divorcing you!"
Gu Mingyuan was so angry that the veins on his forehead were popping out.
Wang Shi, however, was not afraid at all. "Bah! How dare you say you want to divorce me? I tell you, if you dare to divorce me, I will immediately go to the capital to file a complaint. Then I will let all the people in the city come to see how the Gu family bullies me! You still want to be a peaceful official in the capital? Dream on!"
Gu Mingyuan: "..."
This shrew!
Gu Mingyuan was so angry that his whole body was shaking.
Seeing that he was furious, Wang curled up a triumphant sneer on her lips. She thought she could scare him this time.
But in fact, she really underestimated the man in front of her and underestimated his obsession with his career.
When a man's career is threatened, he will do whatever it takes to remove any obstacles that stand in his way.
He suddenly slapped Wang hard on the face, his eyes gloomy and his face ashen.
The force was so strong that Wang's entire face swelled up instantly.
There was a trace of blood at the corner of her mouth, and she looked at Gu Mingyuan in surprise.
"You dare to hit me?"
She couldn't believe that this man dared to hit her!
Gu Mingyuan looked at her coldly, "This slap is to wake you up. If you still want to be the mistress of the Gu family, then you must stay quiet. If you dare to have other thoughts, I will make you live a life worse than death!"
"If you don't believe me, let's wait and see. If you still care about your two children, then be a good wife to me and don't think about causing trouble for the Qin family. Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
After saying this, Gu Mingyuan turned and left the yard.
Wang was left standing there in a daze, and it took her a while to come back to her senses.
After being married into the Gu family for so many years, this was the first time she saw Gu Mingyuan's poisonous eyes. His cold and resolute tone made her feel like she was being stared at by a snake.
For some reason, she suddenly felt a chill in her heart.
She knew that Gu Mingyuan was not exaggerating.
He can do what he says.
After receiving the slap from Gu Mingyuan, Wang Shi finally calmed down.
Although she was extremely unhappy, she was ultimately unable to change the fact that Qin became her second wife.
After packing up their belongings, the Gu family moved to Kyoto and lived in the place arranged by the messenger.
Sifang Lane is the most prosperous place in Kyoto City, covering an area of about 50,000 to 60,000 hectares. It has a straight and wide street and many exquisite and luxurious houses. Many nobles in Kyoto live here.
Most of the shops in Kyoto City are organized around Sifang Lane, where you can find food, clothing, housing, and transportation supplies specially tailored for the nobility, as well as restaurants, inns, and even various entertainment facilities...
The house that Emperor Mian gave to the Gu family is nearby, only one or two streets away from Sifang Lane.
It was a large house with five courtyards, a garden and a pond. The environment was elegant and much more magnificent than the one they lived in Jiangzhou.
The news that the Gu family had settled down in Kyoto naturally reached Gu Xiaoqiao's ears very quickly. When she heard that Concubine Qin had been promoted to a co-wife and was living a good life, her worries were relieved.
It gradually faded away.
Gu Mingyuan is the best at weighing the pros and cons. Since he has made his choice, there won't be many problems later.
In the following days, she just focused on taking care of her baby.
Mid-Autumn Festival arrived quickly. Dayuan had always had the custom of holding Mid-Autumn Festival banquets in the palace. In addition, Gu Xiaoqiao was pregnant with the emperor's first son, so the royal family paid special attention to this Mid-Autumn Festival banquet.
Emperor Mian even issued an order that all officials above the fifth rank in Kyoto could bring their families into the palace to attend the banquet, and the Gu family was naturally invited to the palace as well.
When Gu Xiaoqiao heard the news that Qin had entered the palace, she couldn't help but ask Caiwei to take her to Changle Palace, wanting to meet Qin.
After not seeing each other for half a year, Qin's eyes turned red when she saw Gu Xiaoqiao, and she took her hand and looked at her.
