Chapter 719: Teasing
Xishan Hot Spring Palace, a war without gunpowder, Su Muqing's performance will be the top priority.
Although Su Muqing can't succeed in seducing the British duke, she and Xiao Yu can still have follow-up arrangements so that the whole thing will not fail, but it will add a lot of difficulties to it.
In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Gu Yuqing naturally needed Su Muqing to do her best and succeed in one fell swoop.
After Su Muqing's matter was ordered, she was sent away, and then she gave instructions to Zhou Bingde.
The concubine of the abolished prince of Liaodong, who was raised by the British public and private in the outer room of the Xishan Annex, always has a reasonable but eye-catching way to appear in front of everyone.
After some instructions at night, during the day, they each tried their own tasks repeatedly to temper them, time flies, and in the blink of an eye it is the day to the Xishan Palace.
In the end, Hui Guifei did not move forward because she was unwell.
Concubine Tong, who accompanied her, was very worried about what Concubine Hui explained to her the day before, and she did not show much joy for this award.
After many years of experience in the palace, she has long been trained to be untouched, but because of this heaviness, she gives people a quiet and indifferent state, and the emperor looks at it and feels satisfied.
And those princes and princesses, because there are not many opportunities to leave the palace in the sun, they are particularly excited.
This trip to the west was originally just a pastime and entertainment within the royal family, and there was nothing to do with the British government.
But first there was the queen secretly communicating with the Miao Jiang bandits who were grounded, and Xiao Yi was thrown into the prison because of collaborating with the enemy to frame Zhongliang, and Xiao Yi became a hussar general, yesterday afternoon, hundreds of people in the mansion were beheaded on the street, this series of things, one is more terrifying than the other, the British duke is still busy turning around to seek to rescue the queen, and the back foot has to use all his strength to clear up the relationship with Xiao Yi.
His heart was flustered and anxious, like thousands of small worms gnawing at his internal organs, and he was afraid that someone would give him eye medicine in front of the emperor and make Xiao Yi mess up, which had something to do with his British government. racked his brains again, wanting to make a great contribution in front of the emperor and show it, one to prove his bravery and loyalty, and the other to pave the way for saving the queen.
Suddenly, the emperor came to the Xishan Hot Spring Pool, even if the British Duke used the excuse that his other courtyard was in Xishan, he was familiar with Xishan, and it was appropriate to be a peripheral escort.
The emperor did not hesitate much about his request, as soon as he mentioned it, he responded, but privately asked the forbidden army to secretly lay out another defensive line.
promised the British duke, one in order to balance the court situation, the second in order to show his benevolence and wisdom, not to involve the queen's conviction with the British duke, and the third, and most importantly, wanted to test the British duke.
After all, the queen is the daughter of the British princess, and the queen collaborates with the enemy, and the British princess is difficult to prove her innocence.
If he really colluded with the queen, then today's Xishan Hot Springs and his party would be the best time for the British to wait for the opportunity to act.
Therefore, even if the British Duke did not take the initiative to ask for help, when it was time to leave, the emperor would hand over the security work to him and let him go with him.
Soaking in hot springs, resting is fake, and distinguishing the enemy is true.
A group of people, mighty, set off from the palace gate and went straight to the West Mountain.
Sitting in his own carriage, hugging the small hand stove in his arms, Gu Yuqing was thinking, thinking about what he was going to do today, checking over and over again whether there were any loopholes and whether there was a chance for people to take advantage of. And Ji Xiang Ruyi, who was sitting beside her, had a solemn face, obviously more nervous than her.
When the carriage entered the mountain, it began to become bumpy, and Gu Yuqing turned his eyes to look at Ji Xiang Ruyi, looking at them as if they were facing a great enemy, and couldn't help but smile, "Ruyi, the topic of last time hasn't been finished yet!"
How can they be so nervous.
His Majesty was already suspicious, and there was no problem with the British duke, but his own people showed their feet first, so that people could notice.
In line with the principle of adjusting the atmosphere and soothing emotions, Gu Yuqing looked at Ruyi with crooked eyebrows.
Suddenly, Gu Yuqing said this, Ruyi opened his eyes wide, and his eyes flashed, "Miss, what topic?"
Jixiang was even more dazed, "Yes, Miss, what's the topic?"
Gu Yuqing smiled auspiciously: "Last time, you followed Miao Er in Huaxiang, and after you came back, we talked about the topic of Ruyi, do you remember, Ruyi's face was red, and he ran away......
As Gu Yuqing reminded, the cell called gossip in Jixiang's body was suddenly awakened, and he forgot for a moment that his back stiffened all the way that was still nervous just now, his eyes flashed a pink sly smile, and he squeezed his eyebrows and looked at Ruyi, "Yes, yes, yes, the topic of the last time hasn't been finished yet." ”
When Gu Yuqing's words fell, Ruyi's face was red, and a handkerchief swirled around his fingers, and he was auspiciously teased, glaring at her hatefully, "I want a rotten little hoof!"
Jixiang stuck out his tongue, "As long as you can be happy, my rotten mouth is worth it." Speaking in an auspicious tone, he looked at Ruyi with a thief expression, "You still tell Miss about the situation, and let Miss give you an idea, after all, it is a lifelong event." ”
Ruyi blushed more and more, gritted his teeth with hatred, and stared straight at Jixiang, but he was ashamed and speechless.
Ji Xiang smiled more and more, "If you don't say it now, if the young lady comes out of the cabinet and thinks that you have reached the age of matching, she will marry you, wouldn't you ......?"
Ji Xiang said as he squeezed his eyes at Gu Yuqing.
Gu Yuqing cooperated: "Yes, you are not young anymore, you can't follow me for a lifetime, Ruyi is bigger than auspicious, naturally you have to marry first, a few days ago I also said to Mama Huang, I can't wronged you, although you can't marry into a high-ranking family, but you must not be matched with a small house, the merchant is not good, it is best to find a serious scholar, not afraid of the bitter cold, as long as you ......"
Before Gu Yuqing finished speaking, Ruyi said, "Miss, slaves and maids...... Whatever the status of the slaves and maids, they can marry the scholars. ”
Gu Yuqing glanced at her with disgust, "Why not, since I said I can, I will definitely be able to." ”
"......"
Gu Yuqing took Ruyi's words, "But the person you like is not a scholar, right?"
Ruyi's cheeks were hot, twisted the silk handkerchief, and muttered with her head down, "Miss, don't talk about this." ”
Gu Yuqing glanced at Jixiang, Jixiang understood, and immediately smiled and said to Ruyi: "You are embarrassed to tell Miss, or I will say it? Anyway, I know the secret in your heart." ”
"You dare!" Ruyi threatened, but because of the shyness on the cheeks under his eyes, this threat only made people feel cute.
Ji Xiang smiled, "I can't let you miss your beloved! Miss didn't know what to do, she was kind, she promised you to a family of scholars, so that you might be able to seal a lady or something in the future, but because you are worried about the current person, the marriage is not beautiful......"
"The more you talk, the more unpleasant it becomes, what a lady of Yipin!" Ruyi rolled his auspicious glance and said, "I'd rather eat bran with him than be a lady with others!"
