Chapter 198: The Show Plays Out
Gu Tianlan was still in a daze, in a complicated mood, as if surprised and happy. And the little one suddenly lunged forward, and got into her arms, and two little hands grabbed her tightly. The little guy's body is soft, without the precociousness and arrogance of weekdays, and finally like a four-year-old child, simple and clingy.
"Mother, Yan'er misses her mother so much. Li Yan's little face rubbed against Gu Tianlan's arm, his little face was red, and his eyes were confused, "Mother, don't go, okay?"
Gu Tianlan stretched out his hand and touched it, the little face was no longer cold, but it was a little overheated. No wonder there was such a move, it turned out to be a fever.
Gu Tianlan wanted to get up to get the wet towel, but Li Yan's two little hands didn't know where the strength came from, and she couldn't break free at all. Gu Tianlan could only sit obediently and let the little guy nest in her arms.
"Autumn leaves. Gu Tianlan shouted, the door was pushed open, and Hongye walked in.
"What's wrong with Your Highness?" Momiji couldn't help but ask, looking at His Highness with a blushing face.
"Bring me a wet towel. β
Soon, a wet towel fell into Gu Tianlan's hands. She put the wet towel on Li Yan's head, and the little guy felt better, closed his eyes, and seemed to be asleep. It's just that the hand that grabbed Gu Tianlan's sleeve tightly did not let go.
"How long have you been serving by His Highness's side?" Gu Tianlan asked in a low voice.
Momiji glanced at her, then lowered her head forcedly by her, and replied, "Three years." β
"Who is His Highness's biological mother?"
When Momiji heard this, he was so frightened that his feet went limp, so he knelt down and didn't dare to say a word.
Gu Tianlan understood that this was a taboo.
The guess in her heart was a little more convinced, and she couldn't help but hug the child in her arms a little tighter.
When she looked at the child in her arms, her face was full of tenderness, and then when she turned away, her face turned cold.
When the child fell into the lotus pond, Gu Tianqing moved his hands and feet.
She made another note on Gu Tianqing's head.
Soon, she will let Gu Tianqing return it little by little!
The two were busy for a long time, and Li Yan's fever finally subsided. Li Yan closed his eyes, the flush on his face receded, and he slept much more peacefully.
In the second half of the night, Li Yan burned again, and it was even more ferocious than the first half of the night.
His whole body was red, nestled in Gu Tianlan's arms, like a small stove, and he kept muttering 'mother' in his mouth.
"I'll go get a doctor. Wang Fu said, and was about to go out.
"Wait. Gu Tianlan stopped him.
"Your Highness is burning too badly, don't ask the imperial doctor to ...... again"
"Can you invite if you go and invite you? Even if you do, how can you guarantee that the Imperial Doctor is saving people and not killing people?" Gu Tianlan asked in a cold voice.
Wang Fu paused.
She was right.
It was the queen who wanted to kill Her Highness. In this palace, most of them are the queen's people, and the Tai Hospital is no exception. As long as the Imperial Doctor moves his hands and feet slightly, His Highness may never wake up again.
Gu Tianlan was a little more long-term than he thought. She understands Gu Tianqing's non-stop temperament. If Gu Tianqing knew that Li Yan was still alive, he would definitely kill the entire side hall, including Li Yan. It's just that Li Yan died of illness, and the palace people were unfavorable because of the protector.
"Let no one know what is happening today, and let no one know that His Highness is in the temple. Gu Tianlan said, his voice softened, "Wait and watch the show." Fu raised his voice again, "Go out, shut the door, and no one will come in." β
Wang Fu didn't want to leave, but when she swept over with a look, Wang Fu shuddered and could only retreat.
Now he only hopes that the woman who is holding His Highness in his arms really has no bad intentions.
His Royal Highness is a nobleman, and it is pitiful enough to be reduced to such a point, and fate should not continue to treat him harshly.
Wang Fu sighed softly and sat down on the steps of the door.
in the room.
Gu Tianlan was holding a small stove in his arms, which was not a good thing in summer. She closed her eyes and used her internal force to dispel the heat from him.
The heat on the little one's body gradually dissipated.
Gu Tianlan's internal strength was suppressed, and she had just recovered, and gradually, she was a little weak.
Gu Tianlan's spirit gradually became sleepy, and this sleepiness emanated from his bones. She vaguely saw that there was one more person in the room. The man snatched Li Yan from her arms. Gu Tianlan was not panicked, but breathed a sigh of relief.
She lay limply on the bed for a while.
By the time she woke up, the sky was already faintly bright. There was a small figure arched in her arms, the heat on her body had faded, her little face was white and tender, and she was sleeping soundly.
The man who appeared quietly disappeared again.
There seemed to be a faint smell of the man in the air, which was reassuring.
Gu Tianlan focused his attention on the little guy in his arms. The little face was tender enough to pinch out whom, she reached out and poked at his white face, and quickly bounced it back.
The touch was so good, Gu Tianlan endured it again and again, his heart itched so badly that he finally couldn't help but stretch out his hand, and as soon as he touched his face, Li Yan suddenly opened his eyes.
Li Yan had a cold face, and his expression was completely inconsistent with his age.
"Isn't it fun?" Li Yan said coldly, with a hint of majesty in his immature voice.
Gu Tianlan's hand was awkwardly stretched out in the air. Compared with Li Yan, she seems to be the naΓ―ve one.
"Bold maidservant dares to sleep in the same bed with the main hall, and she can't go down. Li Yan said sharply.
Gu Tianlan: "......"
Gu Tianlan made a crying appearance: "The life of the slave is really pitiful, yesterday I scooped up His Royal Highness from the lotus pond full of mud and went to half his life." His Royal Highness suffered from the cold, and pulled the slave maid to call his mother, and the slave and maid did not sleep all night. Now that His Royal Highness is in good health, he crossed the river and demolished the bridge, and the 'mother' has become a 'maid'. β
Gu Tianlan sobbed as he spoke.
Li Yan sat up, his fair face turned red and black, changed a few times, and he didn't say a word.
"You are not the mother of this temple, and the mother of this temple is not so ugly. After holding it for a long time, Li Yan held back such a sentence.
"If you were my son, I'd take you and spank you. Gu Tianlan said.
"You ......"
Gu Tianlan raised his head and looked at him.
Li Yan snorted coldly, then turned around and turned his back to Gu Tianlan - out of sight is pure.
Gu Tianlan almost laughed out loud, this little guy is too funny. At first, she only thought that this child was too precocious, and the four-year-old child knew too much about deceit and human sophistication, and at the same time she felt that he was pitiful. Now, after all, he is a four-year-old child, and when he is angry, he will behave like this, which is especially cute.
In order to prevent him from going berserk, Gu Tianlan decided not to tease him anymore and got off the bed.
She called Wang Fu and Hongye in, and all the masters and servants in the side hall of Ganquan Palace gathered in this room.
Seeing Wang Fu and Hongye's respectful appearance towards this fake green lotus, Li Yan almost jumped off the bed again. He only slept all night, why did he feel that this side hall had changed?
"You have to cooperate with me and watch a good show. Gu Tianlan said.
Wang Fu was a little puzzled: "What does the girl mean?"
"Your Highness, the bath in this lotus pond cannot be washed in vain. A strange smile flashed on Gu Tianlan's face, and he whispered about his plan.
She only talked about the plan lightly, and mainly explained how they should do it to make the scene more exciting.
After explaining, Gu Tianlan went out with a shoe worn by Li Yan.
Only Li Yan, Wang Fu, and Hongye were left in the room. The three of them stared at each other, and finally Li Yan couldn't help but say, "I'm the master, why do you want to listen to her?"
Wang Fu said: "Your Highness, that girl saved you. β
The angry expression on Li Yan's face suddenly retracted, and he sat there cross-legged, thoughtful.
Gu Tianlan avoided the palace people, quietly came to the lotus pond in the imperial garden, chose a place, and threw the shoes in his hand into the water. Circles and loops of ripples spread out, and the shoe floated there alone.
Gu Tianlan picked a place that was easy to hide and had a wide field of vision, and hid.
After a while, a palace maid suddenly screamed: "His Royal Highness the eldest son of the emperor has fallen into the water!"
The cry was like a pebble falling into the water of a lake, stirring up layers of ripples, which soon alarmed the emperor and empress.
Gu Tianqing arrived first, staring at the shoes, her face changed, and she almost couldn't stand steadily, if it weren't for the palace people around her, she would have been sitting on the ground.
"Proverb...... This is the shoe ...... of the proverb," Gu Tianqing muttered.
Soon, the emperor strode in, his lips pursed tightly, and his face was ugly.
As soon as the emperor came, Gu Tianqing hurriedly took two steps forward: "Your Majesty, something happened to Yan'er." Yesterday's rain was so heavy, will the proverb fall into the water while playing......"
Before Gu Tianqing's words fell, Li Yejin took off his robe and jumped directly into the lotus pond.
Gu Tianqing's face turned even paler.
She was not worried about Li Yan's accident, but she didn't expect Li Yan's position in the emperor's heart to be so important. On weekdays, the emperor ignored him, as if he would not blink if he died. Now, when he heard that something had happened to him, the emperor couldn't even wait to search, so he jumped into the lake......
The more seriously the emperor looks at Li Yan, it means that in the emperor's heart, the more important that person's position is......
Gu Tianlan hid aside to watch the play, and was quite surprised by Li Yejin's actions, the ridicule on her face disappeared in a flash, and she continued to watch the play with relish.
Gu Tianqing took a deep breath, suppressed the jealousy in her heart, made a worried face, and stared at the lake.
The Emperor groped for the bottom of the lake until he could no longer breathe. The guards had also arrived and quickly searched for it. The emperor went ashore, muddy and wet.
"Your Majesty, you're soaked, hurry up and change your clothes, the dragon body is important. Gu Tianqing comforted.
The Emperor stood straight, staring at the lake, not saying a word.
An hour later, the guards searched the entire lotus pond, almost turning the entire pond over, and still found nothing, let alone a person hiding inside.
Gu Tianqing's brows couldn't help frowning.
Even if there is a lot of mud in the lotus pond and Li Yan's body cannot be found, then clothes should be found...... Why only one shoe?
He Zhong was sure that Li Yan had fallen into the water and was no longer struggling, and that Li Yan could not be alive.
Maybe the guards didn't find it. There are whirlpools in this lake, or they may have been swept into it.
Gu Tianqing thought about it, but her face made a look of grief.
"Your Majesty, something like this happened to Yan'er, and the minions in the side hall didn't report it...... "Pushing Li Yan's death on the body of the palace people, and killing the palace people, she will sit back and relax and solve the big trouble."
The emperor's face was ugly, his eyes were full of soaring killing intent, and when he thought that the child was gone, he panicked and urgently needed to kill and relieve his anger.
"Bring the palace people from the side hall here!" the emperor ordered.
