My Stepmother is Soft and Charming

Chapter 311 Meeting the Emperor and Empress

"Your Majesty, Gu Shaoyu, is here to see you. Long live my emperor."

"My wife Gu Mensu (Gu Mendu) has met Your Majesty and wishes His Majesty to pay your respects."

The three of them knelt down in front of the emperor in unison, with a respectful attitude.

The emperor sitting in the seat was also in a rare good mood and good spirit, and said to the three of them.

"Pingshen Pingshen."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"But are you all ready to go south?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, so today I have brought my grandmother and wife here to resign. I hope Your Majesty will grant me your permission."

"Hmph, I succeeded in calling you a kid, didn't I? I remember that Mr. Guo once said that you resembled Marshal Gu and cared more about his family. Now you have really become Gu Shaoyu, right? Your name is Be prepared quickly.”

"Your Majesty, Shaoyu is the nickname given to me by my grandfather during his lifetime. Therefore, I changed my surname and used it. Please forgive me."

"Excuse me? Humph! If you don't be angry with me, please make me happy and everything will be fine."

"I obey the decree."

Du Jingyi lowered his head respectfully and kept listening to the conversation between His Majesty the Emperor and his husband. It must be said that the relationship between the two sounded good. The emperor did not have the so-called power and authority, and he treated his husband more like an elder.

This point coincides with the time when she met Queen Guo before.

But she also knew that the emperor's heart was deep in his heart. The emperor could treat you as a junior and pamper and love you, but you must never treat your majesty as an elder. Instead, you must always remember that he is a king, and he should be humble, respectful, and submissive. It cannot be crossed.

"How is the old lady's health?"

"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. Everything is fine with me."

"That's good. Marshal Gu died for the country and left you alone as a widow. Naturally, I have to take good care of you. I have already ordered the Inner Chamber to ask them to prepare some things. You can take them with you when you leave the palace. , it can be regarded as a little bit of my thoughts.”

"My wife, thank you for your majesty's gift. The whole Gu family shares the blessing."

After saying this, the three of them leaned over to express their gratitude.

Then the emperor focused his eyes on Du Jingyi and said lightly.

"I remember that when Shaoyu returned to the court to hold a palace banquet, you didn't come. Is it because you were feeling unwell?"

Mr. Guo and Mrs. Wei dug a hole for her, and she had to fill it now.

"Returning to Your Majesty, my wife was indeed slightly unwell at the time, but she has recovered well afterwards. Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty."

"Well, that's good. Now Shao Yu has a son at his knees. He's a little short, but your body looks pretty good. You should consider yourself as a family member and spread the branches and leaves for Shao Yu."

"My wife understands."

"There are two pretty good maids in charge of the palace. Now it's time to let them out of the palace. How about I give Shao Yu a job to follow you around and be a servant, so that you can relax a little bit? ?”

Du Jingyi never expected that after four years of marriage, she and her husband had never had any harem disputes or troubles with concubines. Who would have known that the first person to ask her husband to take a concubine would be the current emperor.

She was really caught off guard. Before she could speak, Gu Shaoyu stood up and spoke sternly to the emperor.

"I would like to thank Your Majesty for your kindness. However, my mother was depressed and unhappy due to the affairs in the back house and died of illness at an early age. At that time, I swore that a good wife would be enough for the back house. It is God's blessing to spread the branches and leaves in the back house. I don't think so. If you dare to ask more, now that Yun Zhan is here, you will be more comforted, so please rest assured, Your Majesty."

Shang Ji reacted quickly, and hurriedly used the reason for his mother's death to explain that he did not want to take a concubine and cause a dispute over the back house. He believed that the emperor must know the current situation of the Duke's Palace and the General's Palace, so starting from here, it would be possible to make things happen. The emperor relaxed his guard.

After he said this, the emperor did not answer the question. Instead, he laughed a few times and said.

"These two palace maids were personally taught by Empress Guo. They are not arrogant people, and they are both rare good-looking men. If they can enter the palace to serve you, within three years, the family will be in trouble. Now we can have children in groups, isn’t that a good thing?”

Hearing this, Shang Ji frowned. Du Jingyi didn't want his husband and the emperor to argue over this matter. Just when he was thinking about whether to accept it, Mrs. Gu spoke up.

"Your Majesty is kind-hearted. You also see that my Gu family is lonely and widowed and hopes to see the excitement of the past as soon as possible. Shao Yu, please don't refuse me anymore."

"grandmother……"

Shang Ji thought his grandmother was going to agree for him, so he wanted to refuse, but the next second Mrs. Gu said.

"Every member of the Gu family died for the country. Apart from the old man, there are also several daughters-in-law who are all empty-handed, especially those from the elder's family and the second child's family. They have been in the Gu family for decades. If you call them, look at Shao Yu. The family is lively, and I feel sorry for myself, so Your Majesty is kind-hearted to take care of my family. Why don't you give these two palace maids as daughters, change the surname to Gu, and recruit sons-in-law to come to the house in the future. If you give birth to a child, he will also be a descendant of my Gu family. This is also the case. What do you think, Your Majesty, that we can recreate the excitement of the past?"

Mrs. Gu would actually counter-general an army.

Without rejecting His Majesty the Emperor's kindness, he was able to successfully move the matter away from the two of them, and at the same time find a "monitor" person for each of them to watch.

If they are really good, they will naturally stay in the house, and they will be provided with food and clothing. But if they have evil intentions, then they have many ways to make them disappear without anyone noticing.

After Shang Ji heard Mrs. Gu's words, he immediately knelt down and said sincerely.

"I would like to welcome you two into the Gu family as sisters. From now on, you will become members of the Gu family. Their children will also be descendants of the Gu family. They should be included in the family tree and enjoy the inheritance."

As soon as these words came out, Du Jingyi was also surprised.

Entering the family tree and enjoying the heir means that all the people in the Gu family can inherit and share it. They are truly the Gu family.

After a moment of silence, the emperor laughed heartily.

"Okay, what Mrs. Gu said makes sense, so let's give these two people the surname Gu. I remember that your generation comes from the Xiao generation, right?"

"Your Majesty, yes."

"Then let's give them names like Gu Xiaochun and Gu Xiaoyun. The charm of spring is the charm of spring. I also hope that the Gu family can welcome the charm of spring again."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the name!"

After the three people kowtowed respectfully again, they stood up, chatted with the emperor for a few words, then retired, and went straight to Queen Guo's Changchun Palace.

When Du Jingyi helped Mrs. Gu down the steps, he whispered gratefully in her ear.

"Thank you, grandma, for resolving my grandson's worries. My grandson doesn't know what to say."

Mrs. Gu smiled and patted the back of her hand, and then whispered.

"Our son of the Gu family has no concubines. From now on, you are the only one who will accompany Shao Yu to enjoy the incense of the Gu family. Don't worry."
