Chapter 1942 Cooperation

They still wanted to give face to the Gu family even though they knew what the outsiders said.

Gu Ren knew what the outsiders said, and he showed off for a long time in front of Gu Shouxin and Cai Xiaolian. Except for the few people who traveled through time and Lu Zheng who knew the truth, everyone else thought the same as the outsiders.

As a partner, Gu En also felt that Lu Zheng was helping Gu Ren.

Gu Ren told the Empress Dowager about the contents of the third volume. It happened that Grandpa Gu and Grandma Gu didn't know the contents either, so they listened with great interest.

It also attracted many children to come and listen. The Empress Dowager didn't let them leave, so they also gathered around and attracted all the girls and young men who were over eight years old and under thirteen years old who didn't play cards.

The younger children were not brought by their families. Except for Gu En, all the others who entered the palace to attend the palace banquet were over eight years old.

At the mahjong table, Gu Xin was originally teaching a few princesses from the West to play mahjong. After teaching them, a little girl timidly asked Gu Xin to teach her.

As a result, when she walked over, she saw that they were old acquaintances. They were none other than Lu Ni, a sister of her brother Yuanyuan, and Jiang Hong, a cousin, and their friend Li Yuyan.

Lu Ni was the daughter of Lu Zheng's stepmother Lin. Because of something that happened to the Lin family, she was still unmarried at the age of 18.

Jiang Hong was the daughter of Lu Zheng's aunt. When Lu Ni and Li Shan played together, Jiang Hong was a follower. Now she has grown up and is one year younger than Gu Xin.

Lu Zheng's aunt was a concubine of the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion. She was not born to Lu Zheng's grandmother, but to Lu Zheng's grandfather's concubine. Her status in the Lu family was not as good as that of the concubine of the third master Lu. However, Lu Zheng's aunt married Jiang He, a subordinate of his grandfather. Jiang He was a military general. He made contributions in Yunzhou in his early years and has now been promoted to the second rank.

Jiang Hong listened to her mother since she was a child, and subconsciously learned to please Lin and Lu Ni.

Li Yuyan was the daughter of the Minister of Industry, and she was a close friend of Lu Ni.

With such a lineup, if this wasn't in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, Gu Xin would have suspected that the three of them were here to mess with her.

After sitting down, she suddenly had an idea. Hey, she had never lost a card game. How about winning some change from the three of them to buy a gift for Brother Yuanyuan?

Gu Xin thought about it, but she didn't expect that the three people on the opposite side had the same idea as her. I can't scold you, I can't beat you, I can't bully you, but I can't win your money?

This is the emperor's order. A little gambling is fun! If the three of us beat you, you can go and complain, but you can't complain.

After Lu Ni had communicated with Lin before, she didn't target Gu Xin like before, and was very friendly to Gu Xin.

Jiang Hong and Li Yuyan listened to Lu Ni in everything, so the table was very harmonious.

Gu Xin found that the three of them were pretending not to know, but in fact, the three of them knew it.

After playing a few games, she also found that the three of them were playing in coordination.

After discovering their purpose, Gu Xin felt very at ease and showed no mercy.

Then, Gu Xin started to win, win, win, and she also learned from Princess Jinghe how the noble ladies in the capital city were reluctant to accept and how to make them angry but still continue.

So, when the three people's chips were all in Gu Xin's hands, Gu Xin's tea talk and her naive behavior made the three of them feel that they couldn't leave. It would be embarrassing to leave, as if someone had no money. Gu Xin was so stupid, and if she took more chips, she would definitely win.
