Chapter 222: A Family Reunion
The emperor stared at the black entrance of the cave and jumped down first, and the guards behind him saw this and hurriedly followed.
Gu Tianqing stood there expressionlessly, and her heart was already overturned. The whole person was a little confused, and there was only one thought in his heart-
Gu Tianlan is back, Gu Tianlan is really back.
The people who died in Azure Town actually came back. She walked step by step, and she took revenge on her and Li Yejin.
Gu Tianqing gradually calmed down.
Actually, this is also beneficial.
She and Li Yejin are already inseparable, but they are Gu Tianlan's common enemies, and Li Yejin has to say something to her. This also reminded Li Yejin who is the one who really stands by her side.
The black hole was about more than a zhang, and Li Ye fell to the ground, and found that a broken wooden board was thrown on the ground, and Gu Tianlan and Li Yan had disappeared.
It's not as simple as a hole, it's connected to a secret passage. The secret passage was pitch black, and there was not a trace of light. The guards lit the candles to illuminate the nearest road, but there was no end in sight.
Li Yejin hurriedly walked up.
The passage was long and intertwined. Half an hour later, he came to the first fork in the road. He vaguely felt that this secret passage led to the outside of the palace, and where was the exit from the palace?
There is a secret passage hidden under the palace, and someone may give it privately under his nose. It's a bad feeling.
"Your Majesty, where are you going?"
Li Ye ordered the guard's lamp and candle to shine forward, and he saw some fresh footprints on the road on the right. Li Yejin stepped on the road on the right.
Looking for footprints, I turned around like this, and finally came to a secret room. The end of that footstep is this secret room, but the secret room is empty, can it be said that Gu Tianlan and Li Yan disappeared out of thin air like this?
Li Ye looked at this secret room expressionlessly.
The secret room was arranged as a study, with pen, ink, paper, and inkstones on the table, and many books on the shelves. In the northeast corner, there is a screen with a bed in it. Li Yejin walked to the bookshelf, took down a book, and as soon as he opened it, an envelope fell inside.
"The sun is pale, and the white dew is frost......"
The handwriting on it is strong and awe-inspiring, and it is obviously from the hand of a man, given to a woman who admires it.
The woman he admires is most likely a woman in his harem.
Li Ye carefully hid the letter in his sleeve.
"Your Majesty, there is an exit here!" replied the guard.
It was actually a one-man tall door, but it was made quite secret, blending in with the wall, and it was clear that this was another exit from this secret passage.
The guards exerted their strength at the same time, and pushed that one out of the way. Suddenly, a strong light shone in, contrasting with the darkness inside.
Li Yejin stood there with his hands in his hands, his eyes narrowed slightly, and a shadowy figure appeared in front of him, when he saw the people outside, Li Yejin's heart sank, and the corners of his mouth pulled out a mocking smile, staring at the people outside with a smile.
Gu Tianqing stood outside.
There was a painting hanging in front of her, but the door was pushed open and the painting fell to the ground.
Suddenly, her gaze met Li Yejin.
The blood on Gu Tianqing's face quickly receded, and she felt cold all over.
She had been thinking about where Gu Tianlan could escape, but she didn't expect that this was Gu Tianlan's real purpose.
She used Li Yan to force Gu Tianlan to appear, but Gu Tianlan took the opportunity to make her secret passage of fornicating with Ji Yingshao discovered.
The smile on Li Yejin's face became even colder, and there was no smile in his eyes: "Empress, how to explain this matter?"
Gu Tianqing's lips trembled and said, "Your Majesty, the concubine doesn't know anything. ”
Li Yejin said to the guards behind him: "You search all the secret passages and secret rooms, not only to arrest people, but also to see what interesting things are hidden in the secret rooms." ”
The guards took the order and left, and only Li Yejin and Gu Tianqing were left in the room.
Gu Tianqing knew how weak her argument was.
"Your Majesty, the concubine has been yearning for it since she saw Your Majesty ten years ago. His Majesty said something to the concubine, and the concubine missed it happily for a long time. The Gu family gave birth to me and raised me, but the concubines can care about nothing for the sake of Your Majesty. His Majesty is everything to the concubine and the father of the child in the concubine's womb. No matter what the concubine does, it will definitely not be unfavorable to His Majesty. Gu Tianqing said.
"Your Majesty, she is back to take revenge. Her purpose is to make His Majesty disagree with his concubines, and let the concubines taste her pain in the past. ”
The coldness in Li Yejin's eyes was slightly restrained.
Gu Tianqing admitted that this secret passage was related to her.
But it was the last sentence that really moved him.
At the beginning, Gu Tianlan would have had the opportunity to kill him. Li Yejin didn't think that Gu Tianlan didn't kill him because he still had no feelings for him. She felt that it was too cheap for him to die like that, and it was difficult to understand the hatred in her heart.
Gu Tianlan wanted him to betray his relatives, lose his reputation, and lose the country, leaving him with nothing.
How could he get what she wanted?
"I will find out about the secret passage. If you put your mind on the harem battle, it's fine, if you have other thoughts......" A killing intent flashed in Li Yejin's eyes, and he turned to leave.
Gu Tianqing leaned against the wall and sat on the bed.
She and Ji Yingshao are innocent, and they have never expressed the idea of coveting the country. So she doesn't have to be afraid.
The emperor returned to his palace. He took out a letter from the drawer, which was given to him by Zhao Li, saying that it was a letter exchanged between Ji Yingshao and Gu Tianqing.
The letter presented by Zhao Li was exactly the same as the handwriting that the emperor had taken from the secret room, and it was written by one person.
The leaves are pale, and the white dew is frost......
The affection on the letter was palpable.
Ji Yingshao had a private meeting with Gu Tianqing through a secret passage and watched her write this poem full of love.
The Emperor only felt a wave of anger rise in his heart, and slammed the letter in his hand on the table.
Once the seeds of suspicion were planted, they quickly took root, and the Emperor was eager to execute the two men immediately. But he absolutely couldn't let Gu Tianlan see his jokes.
Li Yan was tightly held in his arms and walked in the secret passage at great speed. Li Yan was distressed about her chubby body for the first time, and she must have been very tired holding herself. Li Yan stretched out his hand and grabbed her shoulder, relieving her of some of her burden.
Li Yan tried his best to keep a straight face, but he was happy in his heart.
If it weren't for the situation, he would have liked to lie on the ground and roll a few more times.
His mother is back, and his mother is still alive.
Therefore, when the light suddenly came, I saw that the corners of Li Yan's mouth were grinning, and his face was already unstoppable, and he smiled like a fool.
was suddenly caught like this, and the smile on Li Yan's face instantly froze.
Li Yan nestled in Gu Tianlan's arms with some shame, and his two chubby little paws grabbed Gu Tianlan's shoulders one by one.
Gongsun Yi, who was answering outside, looked at him very unhappily, reached out and lifted him out of Gu Tianlan's arms and carried him to the carriage.
Gu Tianlan followed suit.
Gongsun Yi no longer stared at the face of the waiter, and put on a silver mask on his face again, blocking his face. Li Yan didn't recognize him at first, stared at his silver mask for a while, and then recognized him. This person is the great eunuch in the palace!
Still being caught by the people he hated and smirking at himself, Li Yan was even more embarrassed, and nested in the carriage obediently.
The carriage moved.
Li Yan waited for a while, but he didn't see his mother come up, and when he opened the curtain, he saw his mother and the man sitting side by side in front of the carriage.
The man is tall and handsome, the woman is delicate and soft, Li Yan is young, and he only thinks that the picture of these two people sitting together is very beautiful, but it is also extremely dazzling. This person and his mother seem to have known each other for a long time, and there is an indescribable tacit understanding in every gesture, which he discovered when he first saw them together. He finally knew why he hated this person, he always thought that this person would rob his mother.
Gongsun Yi seemed to feel his gaze, and put his arm on his mother's shoulder as if demonstrating.
I don't know how Li Yejin would feel when he pushed open the door and saw Gu Tianqing, that scene must be very interesting. Gongsun Yi said.
Gu Tianlan thought about it and couldn't help laughing.
This time, the result naturally turned out to be her wish.
She deliberately wanted to expose Gu Tianqing's secret passage, so she first left footprints in the secret passage, leading Li Yejin to the main hall of Ganquan Palace, Gu Tianqing's bedroom, while she came out from the other exit.
Everything was so seamless.
Perhaps it was because the resentful eyes behind him were too strong, Gu Tianlan finally felt it, and turned his head to meet Li Yan's vicious eyes. When Li Yan saw her looking at him, he snorted coldly and threw the curtain shut.
What's wrong with "Little Baby ......"?
"Hmm. Gongsun Yi responded.
Gu Tianlan: "......" looked at him so big, and he actually responded to her words, which is really worthy of the word 'shameless'.
Gongsun Yi hugged her arm even tighter: "Ah Lan, children can't get used to it, otherwise they will raise lawless children." ”
Li Yan sat inside, a little chubby face almost hideous.
What do you mean by not being used to it? He is not lawless! Obviously, it is you, the great eunuch, who are lawless and occupy his mother's relatives!
Li Yan tore the curtain with his two little hands, and he couldn't wait to tear the big eunuch himself!
"Gu Tianqing is easy to deal with, but Ji Yingshao behind Gu Tianqing is not easy to deal with. Gu Tianlan originally wanted to go to the carriage to appease the little guy, but Gongsun Yi hugged her and said 'Ji Yingshao'.
Ji Yingshao is also the person Gu Tianlan fears the most.
Ji Yingshao is too mysterious and unfathomable. He has a complete intelligence network, and if he manages to put down a pair of eyes around them, they will be very dangerous.
Ji Yingshao is a variable on her road to revenge.
The carriage stopped in front of a small inconspicuous courtyard.
Gu Tianlan jumped out of the carriage and wanted to hug Li Yan, but Gongsun Yi took the lead in lifting the curtain. The little one was huddled in a corner, and his whole body exuded the smell of 'I'm not happy, don't touch me', as if he was going to grow old in a carriage.
"Asleep? I'll keep watch here. Gongsun Yi said.
As soon as Gongsun Yi's words fell, Li Yan got up and rushed into Gu Tianlan's arms steadily. Gu Tianlan put his arms around him. The little guy climbed on Gu Tianlan's shoulders with both hands, his little face full of haze instantly rained and cleared, hugged his mother tightly, and raised his chin demonstratively towards Gongsun Yi.
Gongsun Yi replied with a 'wait and see' look.
Gongsun Yi couldn't help but laugh when he thought of Li Yan's appearance of fangs and claws. At the same time, he felt that he was going back to life and fighting with a four-year-old child so happily.
