Text 172 Chaoyang Palace

There was always an end to the banquet, Guo Shu asked the Qian family and the Yun family to go back in the carriage first, and she hung slowly at the back of the team by herself. Although the lights were already dim, Emperor Yue specially ordered the palace to be closed today, so most of the ladies and ladies walked unhurriedly, ready to enjoy the palace at night.

Changchun Palace is in the depths of the palace, but Chaoyang Palace is on the main axis of the palace, if you want to return to Guo's house as soon as possible, you have to pass through the gate of Chaoyang Palace. Emperor Yue stayed in Changchun Palace tonight, and Xiao Hengyan was inconvenient to stay in Changchun Palace, so he also came out, and when he asked, he hurriedly chased after Guo Shu in the direction where he went.

"Miss, most of the lights in Chaoyang Palace have been turned off, let's go back quickly, the eldest lady and the second lady have gone back. Jiao Lan stood beside Guo Shu and said.

As she was talking, Huarong, the female official beside the queen, came out, "Niangniang asked the county lord to come in for a while, and the county lord please come with me." ”

"Please ask my aunt to lead the way. Guo Shu's expression was as usual, with Jiao Lan, following behind Hua Rong, and he didn't speak, and Jiao Lan didn't know what to say, so she could only keep her mouth shut.

"Niangniang is inside, the county lord please. Hua Rong said respectfully to Guo Shu at the door of the dormitory.

"Trouble Auntie. Guo Shu nodded, raised his feet and went in, Jiaolan wanted to follow up, but was stopped at the door as a matter of course.

Through the gauze tent, I could only see the queen sitting on the bed, and after only one glance, she fell to the ground. "Courtier Guo Shu, see the queen's mother. ”

The maids lifted the tents and withdrew one by one.

The queen didn't scream, Guo Shu had to continue to kneel, and after a while, the queen finally spoke.

"Sure enough, he taught it, he looked solemn and lively, exactly the same as he did back then, your master taught you very well, and you really have the demeanor of a princess. The queen's voice was both distant and close, just lingering on the sickbed, and she seemed to be lacking in breath.

"Don't dare, thanks to the mother's love. Guo Shu reflexively moved back, and turned his head and felt that something was not right.

"Your master said that you have a good set of detoxification, what do you think about the East Palace?"

Guo Shu trembled, "What is the East Palace?

"Don't you know?" the queen's voice suddenly became sharper, "You don't even know what you do, hahaha---- your Tinghuashan people are as ruthless as ever, they were the same back then, and they are now, dare not do it, have no responsibility, are not benevolent, unrighteous, unfilial, cough, ----cough,

Guo Shu was silent for a long time, seeing that the queen coughed so much that she couldn't even say a word, she wanted to say something several times, but it seemed that the more she thought about it, the more angry she became, and she held back for a long time, but she didn't hold back a complete sentence, Guo Shu was silent for a long time.

"After greeting the mother, it is getting late, and if you don't go out of the palace gate, you will lose the key, so the courtiers will retire first. After speaking, Guo Shu got up.

"Wait...... When you were young, you had to fly a kite while riding on the wall, and when you fell down, it was Quan'er who saved you, and in order to save you, he also twisted his hand, which hurt for several days, and you were in the mountains, and he also turned around a few hundred miles to see you, but he missed the time to return to Beijing, and was reprimanded...... Do you remember these things? Although he is not your brother all these years, has he ever felt the slightest bit sorry for you? You ......?"

These words seem to be accusations, and they seem to be confiding, Guo Shu's pace of walking out is always getting slower and slower.

The dusty memories slowly unraveled. Indeed, Guo Shu was only more than three years old at that time, and relying on his psychological age, he had to fly a kite and enlarge the kite, without taking into account his little bean ding's figure. As a result, there was a sudden strong wind, and Guo Shu flew up, the three-year-old little bean Ding was not yet fully developed, and there was no way to control it, so he could only let go violently, but he just fell on the wall, and his little hand couldn't catch anything, he thought he would be killed by a fall, but it turned out to be smashed on a person, and it happened to be fine. That person was Xiao Hengquan, and in the end, Xiao Hengquan injured his hand, and the Guo family also sent a lot of wound medicine. The Guo family is a family of military generals, and the bruise medicine prepared at home is better than that in the palace, and a whole box was sent in one go. Guo Shu can't remember the memories before the age of four, but Guo Shu still remembers this incident very firmly.

There was also four years ago, when Guo Shu had not yet come down the mountain, it was Guo Jin, who was the closest, to come to see her, but it happened that Guo Jin changed guards with the army, so he didn't have time, and he happened to meet the prince who was patrolling the border pass. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince clapped his hands, and promised Guo Jin to help him go to Huashan to visit Guo Shu. At that time, he lived in the mountains for four or five days, and gave Guo Shu a lot of things.

These are almost all of Guo Shu's impressions of His Royal Highness the Prince. But without exception, Xiao Hengquan left her a really good impression, although she didn't say anything, but this good was not forgotten. But these things, the master has already ordered her not to interfere, when she was in Yuezhou, in order to prevent her from interfering in the affairs of the prince's secret Chen Cang, the master poured her a month's soothing soup, the affairs of the East Palace, Guo Shu was not completely unaware, but the master's order was difficult to disobey. Don't look at Guo Shu arranging her master all day long, but in fact, she has never disobeyed him.

Wu Hao also told her in private, on the surface, it seems that Guo Shu does not respect her master, but in fact, she is the most obedient person, if it wasn't for Guo Shu being too obedient, she and Yu Wenjing would not have come that far. Guo Shu smiled at the time and said that even if there was no master, things would not change, and the things that were destined would always be the same. Of course, what Wu Hao said was right, and what Guo Shu said was right, the two of them only accounted for half of each other, so they could only say that there was no fate.

Leaving Chaoyang Palace with a heavy heart, Xiao Hengyan stood alone outside the door, watching Guo Shu come out dejected, his brows furrowed, and there was a trace of distress in his eyes.

"What's the matter, the queen is embarrassing you?"

Guo Shu suddenly came to his senses and smiled at Xiao Hengyan, "No, my mother treats me as a nephew and is very sincere to me, but I am ...... Forget it, let's talk about these things in two days, you're waiting for me here?"

The corners of Xiao Hengyan's mouth curled, and after thinking about it, he held back, "I heard that you gave the carriage to your two sisters-in-law, I think you shouldn't have prepared other carriages, or you come with me, I'll send you back." ”

Guo Shu looked at Xiao Hengyan's eyes full of expectation, and after all, he still didn't tell him the fact that Linglong was waiting on the side, the beauty of adults, Guo Shu has always felt that he is still very kind.

The carriage is not luxurious, it is the consistent style of King Xu's mansion, from the palace all the way out of the Royal Forest Army guarded along the way, after all, it was already a curfew, the emperor released a decree, but the Royal Forest Army still did not dare to slack off, Guo Shu opened the curtain, but after looking at it for a long time, he didn't see Guo Yuan, so he had to put down the curtain sullenly.

Xiao Hengyan was closing his eyes to recuperate, opening a slit in the corner of his eyes and looking secretly, seeing Guo Shu put down the curtain, he quickly closed his eyes again. "What are you looking at?"

Guo Shu said sullenly: "My fourth brother has been in the army and hasn't come back for a long time, I just want to see if he will be there tonight, and my third brother ......"

"Your fourth brother stayed on guard tonight and won't come out to inspect, as for Guo Cai...... He's in Qiantang now, you don't have to worry. ”

"You know better than me," Guo Shu said viciously, and then went down again, "When are you going to Qiantang?"

"After the mission leaves Beijing, it will be soon, but ......" Xiao Hengyan opened his eyes with a smile in his eyebrows, "I'll go and go back quickly, and then I'll ask my father for a favor......"

"Wait a minute----

The carriage stopped, both of them had questions, and Xiao Hengyan was interrupted because of his words, obviously dissatisfied, and rushed out of the carriage. Guo Shu sat in the carriage and waited, waited for a long time, and didn't hear any movement from the people outside the car, originally taking into account the girl's face and couldn't get off casually, but he couldn't suppress his curiosity, so he also got out of the car. As soon as he got out of the car, Peng Yifei led Qing'er to the side, and a red-clothed beauty came out of the carriage of King Ning's mansion, Guo Shu's face became gloomy for a moment.

Xiao Hengyan looked at a few people and knew that the situation was wrong, so he only moved two steps, but quietly blocked in front of Guo Shu.

Peng Yifei stepped forward and saluted, "See Your Highness, I haven't personally congratulated Your Highness on your joy, it's rude." ”

"Thank you, I don't know what the princess's intention is to take someone to stop my frame?" Xiao Hengyan subconsciously asked the person with the highest status present.
