Chapter 793 (1/2)

The next morning, Gu Jiu took a carriage and went to Houfu.

Gu Cheng and his wife, Hu, are waiting at the Houfu.

”Little sister Jiu is here. Let's go to see the old lady first.”

”Three brothers and three sisters in law accompany me on this trip.”

”Little sister Jiu is too outsider.”

They went to the pine crane hall in the backyard.

the old lady Wei was very haggard and her eyes were particularly tired.

See Gu Jiu, she is still very happy, just can't lift spirit.

”Old lady, take care of yourself.” Gu Jiu stepped forward and took the old lady Wei's wrist.

The old lady Wei patted Gu Jiu on the back of her hand. ”I'm glad you can come. Don't worry about your health. ”

Gu Jiu said: ”tired old lady worry, I am in good health.”

”I see you look better than last year. The body is the most important thing. Nothing else is more important than the body. ” Wei, the old lady, was very moved.

Gu Jiu nodded, ”I listen to the old lady. The old lady has to take care of herself. We are all worried about you

The old lady, Wei Shi, said with a smile, ”don't worry. I can still hold on. Even for the sake of this family, I can't fall down. ”

”Old lady!”

Several daughter-in-law of Hou's house are sad.

The old lady Wei's face was flat, and whispered: ”what is it to do with a sad face

several daughter-in-law of Hou's family quickly wiped the corners of their eyes.

”Old lady, my daughter-in-law will take Xiao Jiu to visit the old Marquis,” said the old lady

”Go. Hu stayed to talk with me. Gu went to the courtyard to talk to his brothers. ”

Everybody takes orders.

Gu Jiu followed his wife, the little Wei, out of the Songhe hall, and heard a sigh.

”Auntie in the lobby is working hard!”

The big lady and the little Wei Shi wryly laughed, ”it doesn't matter if I work hard. I'm afraid that this family can't survive the ups and downs.”

”Why is that so?” Gu Jiu was surprised.

The relationship between the Marquis and China is very hard. Even if the old Marquis is is gone, it should be able to survive.

The first lady, the younger Wei, took Gu Jiu and said as she walked, ”I will not hide from you. Once the old Marquis is gone, it is still uncertain whether the title can be smoothly transferred to my master.”

”How could it be so? The hall uncle is a descendant, and he should inherit the title. ”

”That's what I said, but the imperial court intended to cut off the marquis. According to law, my master should be a second-class Marquis if he was to be reduced to a second rank. But a few days ago, there was a rumor from the Ministry of rites. I'm afraid the succession to the title would not be so smooth. Everything depends on your Majesty's will. ”

The elder lady and the younger Wei were worried.

Gu Jiu asked, ”does the old Marquis know about it?”

The elder lady and the younger Wei Shi nodded, ”the old Marquis is is very clear.”

”What does the old Marquis say?”

”The old Marquis said that when he inherited the title of marquis, the late emperor made a special offer of mercy, allowing him not to be degraded to xijue, and succeeded to the first-class Marquis of his ancestors. This time, I'm afraid your majesty will settle the old account. If my Lord wants to succeed, he can only be reduced to a third rank. When your hall brother inherits the title, he can only be a general. ”

With that, the elder lady and the younger Wei Shi sighed heavily.

Originally thought that his husband could succeed to the second-class marquis. When his son, Gu Rui, succeeded to the title, he was the third marquis.

Now it seems that Gu Rui can only inherit one general, Xu Jue.

Gu Jiu Cu eyebrow, ”old Marquis did not think of a way?”

The older lady, the younger Wei, shook her head, ”the old Marquis is is getting heavier and heavier, and he has been unable to govern. Again, the old Marquis also said that this is the general trend and can only drift with the tide. Even the hereditary nobility of the Duke of Zhenguo was reduced to the Marquis of the fifth generation. We are better than the Cui family. ”

Gu Jiu said, not much.

She followed the eldest lady, the younger Wei, to the outer courtyard to see the old Marquis.

The old Marquis is very thin, very thin!

This is Gu Jiu's first impression.

Looking at the skinny old Marquis, Gu Jiu's tears suddenly fell down.

”Silly child, cry what.”

The Lord can still talk, but he can't get up.
