2037 Chapter 2037-putting the facts on the table
Gu Xin and Gu si left the palace after dinner. After they left, the Emperor stayed with the Grand Empress Dowager.
“Imperial grandmother, grandson gave that girl such a difficult task, Imperial grandmother won’t blame grandson, right?” The Emperor asked with a smile.
“Then Emperor, do you want this widow to blame you or not?” The Grand Empress Dowager cast a glance at the Emperor and asked.
“Aiyo, Royal grandmother, you still want to use this on your grandson? Your grandson naturally doesn’t want to be blamed! However, those servant girls were Imperial grandmother’s treasures. Grandson didn’t know if he should agree or not. So, he gave her a case. If she successfully solved the case, it would show that she had the brains to do so. If she went to the Yamen, it would be considered a blessing to great Zhou. If she couldn’t break it, she probably wouldn’t even want to talk about it!” The Emperor explained, feeling wronged.
“You!” The Grand Empress Dowager was tickled by the emperor’s aggrieved look, ” it’s been so many years, you haven’t changed at all! No matter if it’s a man or a woman, old or young, as long as it can be used, you want to use it, don’t you? Are you thinking that it’s best for Xinxin to solve this case so that she can use her strength to seal the mouths of those old guys, and you won’t have to waste your breath? And then you have another person to handle the case for you?”
“Hehe, Imperial grandmother knows grandson the best.” The Emperor didn’t deny it and continued, ” Royal grandmother, this girl, Xinxin, I do look different from the other girls. Just look at that girl Hui, she likes to fight and kill, and she talks with her fists. I guess that in that girl’s mind, she can’t wait for great Zhou to invade from all directions so that she can kill them one by one and become a heroine! Niannian, that girl, has been thinking about all kinds of strange and useful things that can benefit the people of our great Zhou. Her martial arts skills are high, but not like the Hui girl. as for sisi, she’s just a little money-grubber. Her ability to calculate accounts is probably comparable to the old man in our Ministry of Revenue. In a few years, I’m afraid that the people in the Ministry of Revenue won’t be able to calculate and audit accounts like her. She’s just like her mother, love money, and just like the Gu family, have the ability to make money. Xinxin seemed to like everything, but at the same time, she seemed to like nothing. Just like what she said, it’s not easy for her to be interested in something, so we should support her, right?”
“There’s more! Your grandson has really treated Xinxin as his own daughter. As long as the princess in our Palace has the ability to do anything she wants, your grandson will allow it. Unfortunately, they didn’t have that ability! Your embroidery is only at the same level as Xinxin’s. Your grandson’s heart is aching just by looking at you!”
“Emperor, who did you learn this from? you’re using someone else’s daughter to attack your own daughter?” The Grand Empress Dowager looked at the Emperor speechlessly, ” those little girls in the palace, this widow sees that they have been beaten day by day by you to the point that they can’t make any progress. As their father, you still blame them for not being capable? ”
“Imperial grandmother, you are wrong to say this. How was their grandson attacking them? I’m just telling the truth.” The Emperor completely refused to admit the blow he had dealt to the princes and princesses. besides, the Gu family’s girls are already very powerful! Your grandson wants all the children in their houses to be your grandson’s!”
“What nonsense are you talking about?” The Grand Empress Dowager glared at the Emperor.
“Hehe, your grandson is talking nonsense. I’m just envious of second Gu and his brothers. They don’t have to rely on themselves and can live well with their children!” The Emperor immediately admitted his mistake and said.
