Chapter 37 The only one who stopped Ashu was Jiangzhou’s cousin

Author: Naughty Gu Gu

"Qing Ning knows that he was wrong, please ask grandma to punish you."

Knowing that he had lost control this time, Gu Qingning did not defend himself, let go of the maid's hand and knelt down.

"You are the daughter who has been carefully trained by the Marquis. You have followed the rules of the palace all these years."

"In terms of family background, appearance, and talent, you are one of the best in Beijing. It's just a missed opportunity. Why can't you keep your mind steady?"

"Fortunately, you still have some sense and know that you only lost your temper when you came back. If you were outside, the reputation you have carefully built up over the years would be destroyed in one day."

"The prince hasn't chosen a noble girl yet, but we still have a chance." Looking Gu Qingning up and down, the old lady paused and said, "Even if he has chosen, we can also be concubines."

The prince is the crown prince of a country, so even if he becomes his concubine, after he ascends the throne, he will be able to become a noble concubine and bring glory to the prince's palace.

"Grandma wants Qing Ning to be my concubine?"

Gu Qingning raised her head with disbelief in her eyes. For many years, she had been pushing herself towards the goal of being the crown princess. If she wanted her to be a concubine, it would be better to kill her.

Knowing her temper, the old lady didn't fight her hard, she just looked out the window and let out a long sigh.

"Qing Ning, you also know that your eldest brother has no friendship with everyone in the house. He also said it long ago that the honor and disgrace of Yong'an Houfu has nothing to do with him."

"Your younger brother is too young to support the Yong'an Marquis Mansion. As my sister-in-law, you have to bear the responsibility for a while for your younger brothers and sisters."

"Being a concubine with the prince is the last resort at your wits' end. If we plan carefully, we will definitely be able to make everything we want come true."

There was sadness in her words, and she seemed to have made such a decision with great determination.

Gu Qingning looked at the ravine that seemed to have deepened, with regret in her eyes. She stepped forward and knelt on the old lady's knees, "Grandma, Qingning listens to grandma."

Seeing how docile and obedient she was, the old lady smiled and nodded with satisfaction.

"You must establish a good relationship with Princess Suyang these days. She is the crown prince's biological sister. It will be good for you to have a good relationship with her."

The queen lives in the harem and cannot see anyone at ordinary times. Only Princess Suyang, who has been given a princess palace, can meet her from time to time.

If the prince can't see him, then he will start with the people around him. Once he has won over Princess Suyang, it will be logical to follow her into the palace to pay her respects to the queen.

"Princess Suyang often lives in the palace, and we have never had any contact with each other. Will it be counterproductive if we rush to get together now?"

The old lady stroked her head and chuckled, "I have thought of this a long time ago."

"Princess Suyang likes novel things. I happen to have an exquisite tower in my warehouse. If you bring it to the door, I'm sure she won't refuse."

The Linglong Pagoda was built by Buddhist monks from the Western Regions. It has a total of eighteen floors. Each floor contains three types of mechanisms. Only by unlocking the three levels can the upper floor be opened.

Legend has it that the 18th floor of the Linglong Tower houses the priceless White Pearl of the West Sea, which attracted competition from all quarters as soon as it came out.

Linglong Pagoda has disappeared for more than 20 years. I thought someone had solved it, but I didn't expect it to be with my grandmother.

"It is said that the Linglong Pagoda disappeared in the Western Regions. How could it be here with my grandmother?"

The old lady didn't mean to help her, she just patted her back gently and asked her to get up.

"It's better to choose a different day than to hit it. You go back and change your clothes, and then you can take the exquisite lock with grandma."

It would be too rude to come to the door without delivering the message.

Gu Qingning wanted to say a few words, but seeing that the old lady had closed her eyes and looked determined, she had no choice but to leave.

"Girl, please go back first. I will go to the warehouse to get the Linglong Tower and send it over."

Gu Qingning nodded, holding the maid's hand and walking slowly towards his yard.

"Girl, you have been kneeling in the ancestral hall for a long time, and you haven't eaten yet. Why don't you take a rest first before going?"

She walked very slowly, and her legs couldn't help but tremble when she was out of sight of Furongyuan. When the maid on the side saw her, she couldn't help but speak.

Gu Qingning clasped her hand tightly, took a deep breath, then turned her head and looked over coldly, "Don't say anything more."

How could a little maid like her have any say in her grandmother's decision?

Now that grandma has spoken, she can only kneel for a long time and her legs will become weak. Even if her legs are broken, she still has to go out today.

"If you still want to live the rest of your life in peace, you should learn to read more and speak less. Otherwise, if these words reach your grandmother's ears one day, I won't be able to protect you."

The little maid was frightened by this cold look, and she trembled and knelt down.

"This slave knows that I was wrong."

"That's it this time. If there's another time, I won't let you go."

Although she was strict, she was not a cruel person. She just had a quarrel and made the stakes clear, so she let it go.

The little maid breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly kowtowed in thanks. Seeing Gu Qingning raising her feet to move forward, she hurriedly got up and followed him.

There is a ten-mile long slope on the outskirts of Beijing.

After waiting for more than half an hour, the person finally arrived. Mu Chengze raised his eyebrows and looked at him sideways.

"This is really a rare thing. The Marquis of Zhenbei, who has always been very punctual, actually let Gu... let me wait for such a long time."

"Look at this day, every inch of light says you're late."

Gu Tingshu was riding on his horse, looking at him condescendingly, and without taking his words, he took the lead and whipped away.

"Tsk tsk, look at this man, he is getting more and more arrogant. He doesn't even take him seriously."

"Lang Yi, do you think Gu should be punished for his crime? If we let him go, I'm afraid he will kick Gu's nose in Gu's face."

Wolf Yi held the horse and stood aside, not daring to accept these words.

Every time I encountered a problem with the Marquis of Zhenbei, I would ask him about it. After asking for so many years, I have never seen His Highness blame him once.

If he accepts these words, he might be the first to be punished.

"Another piece of wood."

Knowing that he did not dare to answer, Mu Chengze did not embarrass him and jumped on his horse.

"Take people to hide around you, and don't show up without Gu's order."

"The Marquis of Zhenbei doesn't like people getting too close, so stay away."

"Your Highness, if you are too far away and there is danger, I'm afraid I won't be able to..."

"As long as Ashu is here, I won't be in any danger." Mu Chengze interrupted him, and when he saw him lowering his head and retreating, he whipped his whip and sped away.

After driving the horse for less than half a mile, he saw Gu Tingshu stopped by the roadside and smiled. Mu Chengze smiled and chased after him.

"I knew you wouldn't go far."

"The journey is long and boring. Tell me why you are late today?"

As soon as he came back, he asked the question again. Gu Tingshu glanced at him sideways and was stopped when he was about to whip his whip.

"Even if Ashu doesn't say it, I will know."

"Except for my cousin from Jiangzhou, there is absolutely no other person in the entire Yong'an Marquis Mansion who can stop Ashu."

I haven't seen him late in so many years. After making good friends with the cousin of the Shen family, his personality changed.

Not only did he collect so many good things from his palace and send them to his mother and father, but in just a few days, the small courtyard was almost filled with jewelry and novel gadgets.
