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

  Chapter 85 The deceased emperor's eldest son

  Everyone present had different expressions when they heard this.

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

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

  She thinks that Sister Xi is still valuable, so she might as well stay in the house. With Sister Xi's good looks, it is very easy to marry into a powerful family, and she may 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 thought that Wan Qinghou, who had always ignored the affairs of the backyard, would slap her in the face in public.

  The matter has come to this point, people can't drive her away, but she has plenty of ways to learn from 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 is to prevent the possibility of the little Gu taking revenge on Gu Xiyan.

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

   Those who looked down on Gu Xiyan in the past will inevitably look up to Gu Xiyan now, after all, there is a Patriarch protecting her.

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

  He and Emperor Chengde have been friends for many years, and the two became 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 previous emperor's period was too fierce that Empress Shun Gong had that catastrophe and became the victim of the battle for the throne.

  Empress Shungong was pregnant with the emperor's eldest son, Zhou Mu, who 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, and all the imperial physicians and doctors were at a loss what to do. They all said that the child was dead, and Emperor Chengde expressed his condolences.

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

   Zhou Mu was born when Yemu came, and Emperor Chengde hastily named the child "Mu".

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

  After ascending the throne, the first thing that Emperor Cheng De did was to confer the title of Empress Shun Gong on the deceased concubine, and then with a thunderbolt, he wiped out all the party of the three princes who had murdered Empress Shun Gong 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 his hope of inheriting the throne on King Qin alone.

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

  In the past, Wan Qinghou often met Zhou Mu face to face, and his impression of Zhou Mu was always 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 interested in reconciling Zhou Mu and Xi.

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

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

  Instead of 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's reason for treating 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.

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

  Actually, 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 the human heart is 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 these words.

  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.

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

  The old lady 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 intentions at once.

"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, and don't let sister Xi 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's 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 is long past the age of curiosity, but she still couldn't help asking: "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 still didn't understand: "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 could not be that His Majesty has taken a fancy to Sister Xi.

   But she felt 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.
