After Gu Huiyan's words came out, the atmosphere in the room was obviously stagnant.

The eldest princess Shoukang is the grandmother of the former Crown Princess Gao Xi. The British government treats its daughters equally regardless of their legitimate concubines, but the eldest princess Shoukang does not necessarily.

Mr. Wei is the princess's legitimate daughter. When she married the British prince, she was a well-known combination of powerful people, and they were well matched. It's just that the married Wei family and the British prince didn't get along well. Wei pretended to be the daughter of a princess, and the British prince also preferred weak beauties. This marriage seemed noble, but the person involved, Wei, did not live well. . Later, when the Han family regained their favor and became the favorite of the British prince, the relationship between the Wei family and the British prince became even tighter.

How could the Wei family be so arrogant and arrogant, how could they endure being overpowered by a concubine with a humble background? In the first month of the ninth year of Jianzhao, just after the new year, the Han family came out to attract attention again, and the Wei family's years of grudges were exposed. After getting up, he immediately fell out and asked Han to kneel in the ancestral hall. When Lin Weixi thought about this incident later, she always felt that it was a terrible coincidence. At that time, Mrs. Han did not dare to disobey her mistress's order, so she humiliated herself and knelt in the cold ancestral hall. The weather was very cold in the first month of that year, and Mrs. Han knelt not long after , then saw red. When the British prince heard the news and came back quickly, he saw that his concubine's face was like gold paper and her abdomen was bleeding.

Mr. Han was actually pregnant. She was aroused by the cold floor tiles and immediately couldn't bear the sight of red. Heirs are of great importance in the family, and the prince was furious on the spot. After hearing this, the British ancestors also became angry with Mrs. Wei for being overbearing, jealous, and disrespectful of her decency. Mrs. Wei had a big quarrel with her husband and mother-in-law. The prince was so angry that he let go of many important matters. talk. Mrs. Wei had been depressed for many years, and her life had become irregular for a long time. She didn't even know that she was pregnant. She was so angry that she actually had a miscarriage during the conflict. Pregnancy is inherently harmful to a woman's health, and miscarriage is even more harmful. As a result, Wei fell ill and died early within a few months.

The Wei family's only daughter Gao Xi was only ten years old that year, and the child the Wei family aborted was a boy. The Wei family had been looking forward to it for many years, but in the end she ended up with such an end. Ironically, the Han family, who was actually punished in the ancestral hall and rumored to be unable to save the fetus, gave birth to a son safely nine months later.

This is Gao Ran's younger brother. If the heavenly book that Lin Weixi saw was correct, this fateful boy would become the heir to the British government as a bastard. After all, the aunt's mother was dead, and the only legitimate eldest son was Gao Xi, and the British prince particularly favored the Han family and their children. In the absence of any legitimate heirs, it was reasonable and reasonable to appoint the eldest son of the concubine as the heir.

The only daughter was tortured to death by a concubine. The eldest princess Shoukang would definitely not be able to forgive her when she found out. However, the Wei family was also at fault in this matter. In a society of etiquette and law where chastity and obedience were paramount, the Wei family punished the concubine and caused the other party to fall in love with her. Hong, later she argued with her mother-in-law and husband, but in the end she was so angry that she had a miscarriage. Shoukang, as the mother of the Wei family, was of course very angry, but outside, others would only say that the Wei family brought it upon herself. The eldest princess Shoukang could not seek justice for her daughter, and the British government was not a small family that could be manipulated by others. The eldest princess Shoukang could only endure the bad breath, took her granddaughter Gao Xi over, and raised her carefully.

Shou Kang is a princess, but the relationship between husband and wife has been indifferent all her life, and she has no children or grandchildren. Her only daughter died early, and her granddaughter Gao Xi is the only support for Princess Shoukang. But who would have thought that the tragedy of the previous two generations would once again happen to Gao Xi. Gao Xi was outstanding in everything, but her marriage did not go well after she got married. She was not even as good as the Wei family. She only lived for a year and became depressed. And finally.

The eldest princess Shoukang was greatly shocked, but the other party was the eldest son of Prince Yan's palace, and Gu Chengyao's father had all the power in the world. What could Shoukang say? What really made Princess Shoukang unbearable was what happened next. Gao Xi had only died a month ago, and the British government proposed to marry Gao Ran as a continuation.

Who is Gao Ran? Han's daughter. Not only did Han's bunch of **** kill Shoukang's daughter, but now they want to take over her granddaughter's family? The eldest princess Shoukang immediately fell out with the British government, and even the Prince Yan's family, which they had been close to for many years, also fell out of favor.

It is common knowledge in the capital that Princess Shoukang dislikes Gao Ran and that concubine. Gu Chengyao finally married the white moonlight cinnabar mole in his heart. Now that his heart is being targeted by Princess Shoukang, Gu Chengyao is not happy either. He was the eldest son when he was born, and his family background was superior. Over the years, only others had accommodated him. When had he ever seen other people's faces? Since the eldest princess Shoukang was showing off her face, Gu Chengyao was not shy about flattering her. Princess Shoukang's mansion is just an empty frame with no successors. Now everyone can see that their family is going downhill. It's just because Shoukang is senior and uses the seniority of the eldest princess to prop up the facade. How could Gu Chengyao be afraid of her if she really faced off against Prince Yan's Mansion?

So after Gao Ran entered, Prince Yan's Mansion and Princess Shoukang's Mansion inevitably became indifferent. Gao Ran was happy to see it happen, and Gu Chengyao didn't care. Now suddenly Gu Huiyan mentioned it, Gu Chengyao just paused and said, "The eldest princess Shoukang seems to have some misunderstanding about the eldest concubine. His son made a special trip to explain to the eldest princess, but the people in the princess's house looked coldly towards the eldest concubine. Since we become husband and wife, we are one body, and their disrespect to the Crown Princess is disrespect to me. In this case, there is no need for me to stay any longer."

After hearing this sentence, Lin Weixi knew it was over and Gu Huiyan was going to be angry. The expression on Gu Huiyan's face was as usual, and his voice was even the same as before: "You also know that husband and wife are the same body, so Gao Xi, the granddaughter of Princess Shoukang, is not your wife?"

Gu Chengyao turned to Gao Ran. Gao Ran originally felt relieved that the old princess who was not popular with men did not like her, and she did not bother to enter the princess's house. He couldn't even give birth to a son, and only knew how to oppress others by relying on his status as a princess. Gao Ran deeply felt that Shoukang deserved it, and Wei and Gao Xi would be the retribution in this world later. Gu Chengyao broke off contact with the Princess Mansion because the people there treated her coldly. Gao Ran felt that it was very useful. This gave him the aura of a leading actor. But now that Gu Huiyan put down such words... Gao Ran's face was stunned, and he didn't know what was going on. Could it be that King Yan was dissatisfied because of this? Why is this so?

Gu Chengyao was different from Gao Ran. He knew his father better. He knew his father was angry when he heard Gu Huiyan's tone. The angrier Gu Huiyan gets, the more calm he becomes. In this situation, it is obviously the latter.

Gu Chengyao did not dare to sit down any longer, so he immediately stood up, lowered his head and said, "My son didn't mean it this way... but the eldest princess Shoukang is too domineering. The imperial concubine is already my wife. How can she be filial if she doesn't have a loving son?" If her son is unwilling to respect the Crown Princess and still obeys her as always, wouldn’t that mean that he would be lowering the reputation of Prince Yan’s palace?”

Gao Ran also quickly stood up, glanced at Lin Wei Xi quickly, pursed his lips and lowered his head: "It's the daughter-in-law's fault. It has nothing to do with the prince. Please don't anger the prince."

Of course Lin Weixi understood the meaning of Gao Ran's glance. This was a family matter in Prince Yan's house, and no matter what, it was not Lin Weixi's turn to be an outsider. If it was normal, Lin Weixi would have found an excuse to leave the meeting, but the person standing in front of him was Gu Chengyao. Lin Weixi's years of upbringing told her to respect her master's private affairs, and now she should politely avoid it, but...she really wanted to watch Gu Chengyao and get scolded. Lin Weixi finally decided to obey her own will, and still sat steadily in all directions, trying to reduce her sense of presence as much as possible. On the surface, she was solemn, but in fact, she continued to listen with great joy.

When Gu Huiyan heard Gu Chengyao's words, his anger grew stronger. There was no emotion or anger on his face, but he could feel the intense pressure from his words: "If the eldest princess really doesn't care about the face of Prince Yan's palace, she won't let you in."

Both Gu Chengyao and Gao Ran lowered their heads and breathed deliberately softly. Gu Huiyan calmed down, and when he spoke again, he returned to the impeccable King Yan: "It's your fault to remarry before your wife's death. Princess Shoukang's attitude is just cold. She is the one who makes people happy." It’s right to shut you out. It was you who personally wrote a letter asking to marry the eldest princess’s granddaughter. She was the only bloodline of the eldest princess. However, he died of an illness in the palace for no apparent reason within a year. Princess Shoukang has a problem with you. , do you still dare to have objections?"

"Father." Gu Chengyao couldn't help but look up, "The person I was looking for was not her, but her and the eldest princess..."

Gu Chengyao's voice gradually disappeared from Gu Huiyan's eyes. Seeing that he lowered his head obediently, Gu Huiyan chuckled lightly and put the tea cup on the table with a bang: "Were you the one who wrote the letter? We are engaged. Are you the one who exchanged Geng Tie?"

Gu Chengyao looked aggrieved. He endured it again and again, but reluctantly said: "Yes."

"That's enough, no one will listen to your reasons. You are already so old. If you do something wrong, you do it wrong. You don't want to take responsibility, but you still make excuses for yourself?"

Lin Weixi's eyes became sore when she heard this. She quickly opened her eyes wide and forced back the tears. For such a long time, the Heavenly Book, the British Duke's Palace, and even many old servants of Prince Yan's Palace were saying that she had brought it upon herself and that she deserved it. Among so many people, Prince Yan was the only one to avenge her injustice and accuse Gu Chengyao mercilessly. . King Yan was even Gu Chengyao's father, a true member of his husband's family.

It was Lin Weixi who unconsciously took over Gao Ran's life-saving grace, but who is to blame? It was Gu Chengyao who admitted the wrong person, and it was Gao Ran who was behind it. Why should she bear the responsibility for the final mistake? Even if it turned out that the marriage was by mistake, Gu Chengyao married her after all. Why didn't Gu Chengyao think about his responsibilities as a husband?

Gu Chengyao was so embarrassed that he was reprimanded. Gao Ran wanted to say something, but when he caught Gu Huiyan's gaze, he was so frightened that his throat clogged and he immediately silenced.

This was a rare moment of anger for Gu Huiyan. There was a complete silence inside and outside the hall. Even the old prince's generation did not dare to speak at this moment. In the silence of the whole hall, a burst of irritable coughing suddenly sounded. The person who made the sound seemed to want to suppress the movement, but the coughing became worse and worse. Lin Weixi covered her mouth, frowned, and took the time to say to Gu Huiyan with difficulty: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry too. I don’t want to disturb you and the Crown Prince. Just...ahem..."

Lin Weixi's cheeks turned red as she coughed, and her eyes were filled with tears, which just covered her excitement. Gu Huiyan was originally angry, but when he saw Lin Weixi coughing so pitifully, he sighed and said, "Why did you start coughing again? Have you taken medicine today?"

Lin Weixi was speechless, Wan Yue hurriedly stepped forward and carefully replied: "I have already served the girl to drink, but the weather has been dry these days, so it doesn't work."

"Call the imperial doctor from the palace tomorrow and give you another medicine."

Lin Weixi thanked Gu Huiyan with difficulty. Gu Chengyao watched helplessly as a group of people rushed to Lin Weixi's side, handing him tea and patting him on the back. The prince seemed to have been forgotten.

But fortunately, what happened just now is over, and the servant who served Gu Chengyao breathed a sigh of relief. When Lin Weixi thought that she had saved Gu Chengyao again, she felt extremely angry, and the itching in her throat became even more unstoppable.

When Lin Weixi finally stopped coughing, everyone in the lobby breathed a sigh of relief. Gu Huiyan still looked at Lin Weixi with a frown. Lin Weixi looked at Gu Huiyan carefully while calmly speaking: "Your Highness, King Yan, are you still angry?"

Gu Huiyan glanced at Lin Weixi helplessly, without moving his eyebrows, and gently raised his hand to Gu Chengyao: "This will not happen next time."

Gao Ran was overjoyed when he heard this, while Gu Chengyao's face was tense. He glanced at Lin Weixi complicatedly, lowered his head and saluted Gu Huiyan. For a moment, everyone looked at Lin Weixi with gratitude, but Lin Weixi smiled stiffly, with pain in his mouth.

Actually, that’s not what she meant...
