My money-loving little lady

The scene was quiet. At Jing Rongyao's signal, Yunxi asked the maids around to retreat. After serving tea for the two of them, Yunxi also retreated.

"You must not have had a good rest these past few days. Why don't you stay here with me for a while? My husband will go out later, so he won't come home for dinner at night. It just so happens that you and I can stay in the west wing.

, we two sisters can also say some words of respect here." Jing Rongyao patted her shoulders to comfort her.

"I just came here after helping my mother fall asleep. She might wake up at night, and it's not convenient for you to live here. I just came here to see if you were doing well. When I saw you doing well, I

I'm relieved. After all, this is my own family matter, why should I worry you?" Gu Qiqi wiped away her tears and said with a lonely look. Once upon a time, she was still the carefree little princess who never had to worry about anything.

, now she has also learned to be humble.

Jing Rongyao looked at her with a distressed expression, "Your father died young, and the old prince can no longer go to the battlefield due to leg disease. Your family has great military exploits, and your uncle is such a talented general. Naturally, the forces in the court are against him.

Your family is watching with eager eyes. That’s why your mother wanted you to attach yourself to Prince Ling before, because she also wanted to find a way out for you."

"I know, my mother has told me this a long time ago."

"When?" Jing Rongyao was stunned and slowly turned sideways to look at her.

"A month ago, my mother was fine at home. I don't know who handed over a letter. After reading it, my mother fainted and fainted. After falling to the ground, she was found to be seriously ill. That night, my mother

She called me into the room and talked with me about many things. She apologized to me and explained to me why she had always loved me so much for so many years. My father died young and the day he died was when I was born.

My mother has been living in the longing for my father for so many years, but I have no idea. I have been causing trouble everywhere. I am not worthy of being a son at all." As she said that, she sighed.

"It would be great if you can untie your knot and understand each other." Jing Rongyao comforted her, "This is not your fault."

"But I was still sad. When I saw my mother, who had always been very tough, suddenly fell on the bed, my heart really panicked. I really didn't know what to do at the time. Her face was so pale.

, no matter who gave her the medicine, she just couldn't get it in. She was foaming at the mouth and coughing desperately. Yao'er, you said that our Gu family has not offended anyone at all. Why do others treat us like this? My father is only two years old.

He died on the battlefield when he was more than ten years old. My grandfather has been fighting for more than forty years. Our Gu family fought with blood to conquer the country! Why is it like this now!" As he said this, Gu Qiqi's eyes suddenly turned red and he clenched his hands tightly.

Her arms were so hard that she felt a little pain.

"Um...Qiqi?" Jing Rongyao, who was enduring severe pain, looked at Gu Qiqi, who was reacting abnormally, "What on earth is going on."

"My father was killed by someone! He was killed by someone!" Gu Qiqi roared and took out the crumpled paper ball from his clothes. Jing Rongyao took it and saw that it was crumpled.

frown.

The envelope recorded in detail the specific details of the battle that General Gu participated in thirteen years ago. At that time, General Gu only brought 30,000 troops, but the opponent was close to 100,000. General Gu had revised the book many times and sent it to the court quickly.

Requesting for support, it was originally said that reinforcements would be sent, but the reinforcements did not arrive. In order to take the overall situation into consideration, General Gu led his troops to Luanpo Ridge, but they were ambushed and raided. All 30,000 troops were ambushed and died in Luanpo Ridge.

The details of the contents of the letter, the accuracy of the names, and the authenticity of the contents are shocking.

The leader of the surprise attack team was none other than Sima Yan, the brother of Sima Ruozhao, who was also the deputy empress at the time.

"I want to kill her! I want to kill her! She killed my father, how can she still be the queen! How dare she! She is not worthy at all, I must kill her!"

"Uh, uh, uh!" Jing Rongyao immediately covered her mouth with a serious and gloomy expression, "Shut up, Gu Qiqi, don't talk nonsense! Do you know that this is a matter of losing your head? You don't want your life."

There is also your mother, your grandfather, aunt, and uncle! They are dying!" Hearing her roar like this, Gu Qiqi gradually calmed down.

"Listen to me, this matter is not trivial. Even if it is true, we can't go directly to the palace to question the queen about this matter. First, we have to clarify three things. Listen up, Gu Qiqi, in

Before these three things are clarified, you must not act rashly, do you hear me clearly?" Facing Jing Rongyao's very calm persuasion, Gu Qiqi could only hold back his hatred and nodded silently. Seeing this,

Jing Rongyao nodded, "First of all, we need to find out who is the person who delivered this letter? Thirteen years ago is a long time ago. This is not something that ordinary people can know.

, if the person who delivered the letter has nothing to do with the Queen, then it must have been dictated by the survivors who experienced this battle and witnessed what happened. This gives us room for investigation. Sima Yan is also

He is not very good at force. If we directly say that he led the troops to encircle and suppress General Gu, who has experienced hundreds of battles and has great martial arts skills, there is still some doubt. Moreover, an old incident from thirteen years ago was suddenly sent to your Gu family out of thin air.

Come on, if it's not against your Gu family, then it's very likely that he's someone who wants to use your hatred to do something. If so, then he's probably someone who hates Queen Sima's family. Sima Ruozhao is very thoughtful.

, usually do things without leaving any trace. After such a long time, do you think your Majesty will believe you if you go to the emperor with this informant letter of unknown origin?"

"Then are you going to let me do nothing, just sit there and pretend not to know anything?"

"That's not what I meant. This third point is what I want to tell you. I want you to promise me that you will never act willfully before finding out the truth. You have to think about how the old prince has been keeping a low profile for so many years.

I just don’t want you to get hurt? Suddenly this incident happened, and the last person who should be messed up is you! If you mess up, then Concubine Hui and the old prince in the palace will be implicated. In this way, you pretend first

I don’t know what to do, so I can take good care of my wife’s body with peace of mind. I’ll send someone to handle this matter. If I find out anything, I’ll tell you, okay?”

Jing Rongyao was really uneasy about letting this girl investigate this matter. Gu Qiqi had never experienced anything like this, and she only focused on the beginning when dealing with the problem. If she was really allowed to rush straight into the palace with the letter, Empress Hui Fei had worked hard to deal with it.

After so many years, we may all fall short.

Thinking of this, she called Ziyue again, "Go and take out the two wild ginsengs from the warehouse and bring them back to the princess."

"Yes."

"Qiqi, you have to believe me, we will definitely solve it." Jing Rongyao held her hand with both hands, her eyes were very sure, Gu Qiqi nodded, "I understand, then you have to promise me,

If you have anything sad, don’t bear it alone, talk to me.”

"Yes, I will definitely do it." Jing Rongyao smiled, the two chatted for a while, and then she watched Gu Qiqi leave.

Jing Rongyao looked down at the letter in her hand, silently lost in thought.
