On the Day the Scumbag Got Married, I Lay Flat and Became His Sister-in-law

Everyone present had different expressions when they heard this.

Is Hou Ye going to raise Gu Xiyan as his own daughter?

The old lady is used to seeing the big world, and she was taken aback by Wan Qinghou's words.

She felt that Sister Xi was still valuable, so she might as well stay in the house. With Sister Xi's good looks, it would be easy for her to marry into a powerful family, and she might even enter the palace as a concubine in the future.

But it's not enough for her son to protect her like this. Is there something hidden in it that she doesn't know?

Little Gu was speechless, she never imagined that Wan Qinghou, who had always ignored the affairs of the backyard, would slap her in the face in public.

Things have come to this point, people can't drive her away, but she has plenty of ways to grind Gu Xiyan in the future.

I don't know if he guessed what she was thinking, but at this time Wan Qinghou suddenly added: "Since there is an irresolvable conflict between Madam and Sister Xi, from today onwards, Sister Xi will not have to go to Manfang Garden for the time being. Greetings to Ma'am!"

This eliminates the possibility of the little Gu family taking Gu Xiyan's anger.

There were many people present, but they were all silent.

Those who looked down on Gu Xiyan in the past can't help but think highly of Gu Xiyan now, after all, the Patriarch is protecting her.

The reason why Wan Qinghou made this confession was because he knew that Zhou Mu valued Gu Xiyan.

He and Emperor Chengde have been friends for many years, and the two had become friends before Emperor Chengde became emperor. It can be said that the Liu family is a loyal supporter of Emperor Chengde. Even though several princes in the former emperor's period fought fiercely, the Wanqinghou Mansion only regards Emperor Chengde as the sole heir to the throne.

It was precisely because the battle for the throne during the former emperor's period was too fierce that Empress Shun Gong had that catastrophe and became the victim of the battle for the throne.

Back then, Empress Shun Gong was pregnant with the eldest son Zhou Mu. She was poisoned in the late pregnancy and gave birth to Zhou Mu when the poison occurred. Empress Shun Gong, who was still a princess at the time, gave birth to Zhou Mu with the last bit of her strength, but the child passed away as soon as she was born.

Zhou Mu was dying when he was born, all the imperial physicians and doctors were at a loss what to do, they all said that the child was dying, please Emperor Chengde mourn.

At the moment when Emperor Chengde was in despair, Master Mingjue suddenly appeared, saying that Zhou Mu had a destiny with Buddha and wanted to take Zhou Mu away.

When Zhou Mu was born when Ye Mu came, Emperor Chengde hastily named the child "Mu".

Emperor Chengde reluctantly handed over the child to Master Mingjue. From then on, everyone thought that Zhou Mu died on the day he was born.

After ascending the throne, the first thing that Emperor Chengde did was to confer the title of Empress Shungong on the deceased Crown Princess, and then with a thunderbolt, he wiped out all the party of the three princes who had murdered Empress Shungong at that time.

It was precisely because of the tragic battle that Emperor Chengde felt more guilty towards Zhou Mu, and when Zhou Mu grew up, Emperor Chengde loved Zhou Mu more and more.

If Zhou Mu hadn't lived in the Fallen Immortal Temple for many years, with an indifferent temperament and no desires, Emperor Chengde would not have pinned all his hopes of inheriting the throne on King Qin alone.

Apart from Master Mingjue, Wan Qinghou is another insider who knows Zhou Mu's identity.

In the past, Marquis Wan Qing often met Zhou Mu face to face, and his impression of Zhou Mu was always calm and calm. Such a person could not have aspirations for the throne.

It wasn't until Zhou Mu got in touch with Gu Xiyan that his impression of Zhou Mu changed. It seems that because of Sister Xi, Zhou Mu's popularity is getting stronger and stronger.

According to his understanding of Emperor Chengde, Emperor Chengde was thinking of reconciling Zhou Mu and sister Xi.

As for the list that Emperor Cheng De made for Sister Xi, it was probably to stimulate Zhou Mu's mind.

If Zhou Mu really became possessive of Sister Xi and married a wife and had children, then Emperor Chengde might not give the crown prince to King Qin.

Furthermore, with Miss Chao's character, even if she became the Princess of Qin, she might not be able to control the King of Qin.

Rather than pinning the future hopes of the Hou Mansion on Sister Chao, he felt that Sister Xi had a better chance of winning.

After everyone else in Xiyuan had dispersed, Wan Qinghou said to Gu Xiyan: "Junyan was spoiled by her mother, she always thought that she could get whatever she wanted. Uncle knows that she hates you for getting Xu San's attention." , you don’t care about her like her. If she comes to make things difficult for you in the future, you just tell my uncle, and my uncle will treat her for you.”

Gu Xiyan didn't know whether Wan Qinghou really cared for her, or because of Zhou Mu, she treated her more politely, she thought it was probably the latter.

The Liu family is cold in their bones, and she dare not expect too much from the Liu family.

"Today, Xiyan was too impulsive, she shouldn't have left her sister on the street." Gu Xiyan knew that she still had to live in the Hou's mansion, and she didn't want to offend Wan Qinghou, so she finally lowered her posture.

In fact, if she was given another chance to choose, she would still drive Liu Junyan off the carriage.

"Son, my uncle has neglected you all these years. The Liu family owes you. As a father, I also know Junyan's temperament. She is just too strong. She always thinks that she can get what she wants. But people's hearts are the most uncontrollable." Wan Qinghou patted Gu Xiyan on the shoulder, and said earnestly: "I am not only your child's uncle, but also your uncle, I only hope that one day, you can call me uncle."

Gu Xiyan didn't feel much after hearing this.

Speaking of which, Wan Qinghou didn't take her seriously all these years, but at least Wan Qinghou never felt sorry for her. This is the rare warmth of the Liu family.

"Uncle made a special trip today because of Xiyan's troubles. Is it Xiyan's fault? Xiyan sent Uncle off." Gu Xiyan said softly.

Wan Qinghou asked her about some daily affairs before leaving Xiyuan, and then went to the old lady's Zaohui Hall.

The old lady had just sat down and was still thinking about Wan Qinghou's attitude towards Gu Xiyan. Seeing Wan Qinghou come to Zaohui Hall, she knew that Wan Qinghou had something to say.

"Are you here for Sister Xi?" The old lady guessed Wan Qinghou's intention in no time.

"Last time, my son said that the emperor's kindness is mighty, and this is not a lie. Mother still needs to take care of Xiyuan in the future, so that sister Xi can't feel resentful towards the Liu family. If Junyan and the others don't have eyes, you can just teach them a lesson Sister Xi must never leave the Hou Mansion, she will always be the eldest daughter of the Liu family, this is the attitude of a son!" Wan Qinghou looked extremely solemn.

The old lady has long passed the age of curiosity, but she still couldn't help asking at this moment: "Is there any secret about Sister Xi, is it related to the royal family? Tell me about it."

Wan Qinghou shook his head and said, "Son can't say anything. Mother just needs to know that Sister Xi is capable, and what kind of fortune she will have in the future is still unknown. This is all my son said, I hope mother can listen to it."

The old lady thought about it for a while, but she was still puzzled: "Sister Chao discussed the marriage with His Highness King Qin, and His Highness King Qin treated Miss Chao very well. With Sister Chao here, plus His Highness King Qin's face in front of His Majesty, Xi No matter how good things are for my sister, can't I surpass my sister Chao?"

It couldn't be that His Majesty took a fancy to Sister Xi.

But she found it impossible. Because His Majesty specially prepared the list of relatives for Sister Xi, it is impossible for His Majesty to have that kind of thought for Sister Xi.
