Chapter 1091: The National Teacher (1)
That night, when the emperor and queen were alone, Gu Wanning had to sigh.
"In a blink of an eye, Gillian and Ayi have grown up and become assertive and responsible, and I can no longer treat the two of them as children. ”
There was relief in Gu Wanning's tone, but also an indescribable amazement: "I still remember what the two of them looked like when they were born, little soft and white and chubby, staying by my side all day long, sticking to me and pestering me. ”
The years slipped by imperceptibly. The children have grown up and have their own ideas and opinions.
Gu Wanning is usually calm and resolute, and rarely shows such a sad look.
Xiao Xu was both pity and reluctance, and gently hugged her into his arms: "The child will grow up one day sooner or later." Didn't you always hope that the two of them would be independent and strong? Gillian was precocious and assertive, and after Ah Yi was appointed as the prince, his temperament was much more decisive than in the past. You should be happy. ”
Oh, yes!
The two sisters and brothers are so good and outstanding, she should be proud of her as a mother-in-law. Sighing and sighing is not her character!
Gu Wanning cheered up and smiled: "What you said is that I am idle and thinking nonsense. ”
Xiao Xu opened her mouth and asked, "Sister Yue'er has improved today?"
Gu Guanning nodded: "Xu Cang saw Sister Yue early in the morning and prescribed a prescription to regulate and nourish her body. Sister Yue was bleeding profusely and her body was very weak. You have to take care of your health. ”
Therefore, there are many precious medicinal materials in Xu Cang's prescription. Among them, ginseng that is more than 100 years old is used.
When Xiao Xu heard this, he said without hesitation: "In the warehouse of Tai Hospital, there are two five-hundred-year-old ginseng plants, take one out and dispense medicine for Sister Yue'er." ”
Hundred-year-old ginseng has the effect of renewing life. The 500-year-old ginseng is a treasure that can not be found. Even in the palace, there are only two plants.
Xiao Xu had no guilt, and being so generous also moved Gu Wanning.
"Xiao Xu, do you really not mind at all?" Gu Wanning stared at Xiao Xu: "Xiao Rui has done so many evil things, and Sister Yue is his only daughter. ”
Xiao Xu raised his eyebrows slightly and smiled faintly: "Do you mind?"
Xiao Rui is also the enemy you hate to the core, don't you treat his daughter the same?
Gu Wanning was speechless.
"We are all flesh-and-blood people, not as cold-blooded and ruthless as Xiao Rui. Xiao Xu said lightly: "However, when people live in the world, they should have a human appearance." As you have said, there is no need to be upset about what you have done. Regret is also useless. Since we have taken Sister Yue into the palace to live, we should be responsible for her. ”
Gu Wanning hummed, and gently snuggled into Xiao Xu's arms, with a hint of tenderness in his eyes: "Xiao Xu, did I say that I like your softness and kindness." ”
Xiao Xu chuckled: "I haven't said it today." ”
Then, leaning over and kissing the smile on her lips.
……
In the middle of the night, there was a soft knock on the bedroom door.
Gu Wanning was awakened from his sleep, and his mind instantly sobered up. In the middle of the night, people around her knocked on the door to wake her up, obviously there was an important emergency.
Once Xiao Xu fell asleep, he fell asleep very deeply and did not wake up.
Gu Wanning got off the bed lightly and silently and opened the door.
Standing outside the door is Linglong.
In the dim light, Linglong's eyes were amazingly bright: "Niangniang, the Tubo National Teacher has been sent to the palace prison." When the slave got the news, she immediately went back and forth to her mother. ”
Gu Guanning once told that as long as the Tubo national teacher was sent to the palace, no matter when, he would report it immediately. Even in the middle of the night, you have to be the first to return.
Gu Wanning's eyes also lit up, like a sharp blade out of the sheath, with a chilling coldness: "Change my clothes, I'll go to the prison immediately." ”
Linglong knew Gu Wanning's temperament very well, and did not say anything to stop it, and quickly responded. Then he hesitated and whispered: "The emperor is sleeping peacefully, and the slave and maid go in, I am afraid that the emperor will wake up." ”
Gu Wanning said lightly: "I'll go to your and Linlang's house to change clothes." ”
……
Linlang and Linglong are Gu Wanning's henchmen and female officials, and they have a high status in the palace.
According to the rules of the palace, the two of them can live in spacious rooms, and there are a few little palace maids around them to serve food and clothing.
However, the two of them are used to living together, and they don't want to be separated at all, so they still live together. There is never a little palace maid around to serve. lest someone with ulterior motives approach him and prying eyes.
Linglong got up, and Linlang also woke up.
The moment Gu Wanning stepped into the room, Linlang was not too surprised, and quickly stepped forward to salute.
"No need to be polite. Gu Guanning quickly said: "Find me a clean set of clothes to change into, I'm going to the prison!"
Linlang's biggest advantage is that she never asks too much, and responds, finds clean clothes as quickly as possible, and combs Gu Wanning's hair for changing clothes.
The night was dark and breezy.
Gu Wanning walked forward quickly, as if there was a stream of magma surging in his chest.
The Tubo national teacher was finally sent to the palace.
If it is not wrong as expected, the person who secretly plotted to kill Xiao Xu must be the national teacher of Tubo. As long as the torture is forced to find a solution, Xiao Xu will be able to recover as before.
……
The prison is located in the most remote northwest corner of the palace, and hundreds of forbidden troops guard it day and night.
This is the place where the palace attendants and even the palace concubines smell the color. Once inside, few people can get out of it unharmed. During the lifetime of Emperor Yuanyou, this prison was activated several times. Many people have lost their lives here.
When Xiao Xu was five years old, Emperor Yuanyou's favorite concubine beauty poisoned her food, and the young Xiao Xu accidentally ate poisonous food and saved Emperor Yuanyou once.
Emperor Yuanyou was furious and put the favorite concubine and all the palace people involved in this matter in the prison and tortured them. Hundreds of people died in the prison.
After this incident, the prison became a taboo place in the palace.
A few days ago, Luo Ting quietly entered the palace and lived in the prison.
He has never been able to meet the emperor and queen, and only learned about his mission from Linglong's mouth. After that, he waited patiently. Tonight, the Tubo national teacher was finally sent to the palace from the distant border pass.
At the moment when he saw the Tubo National Teacher with his own eyes, he was as calm as Luo Ting, and he was also a little shocked.
He didn't rush to interrogate, but first ordered someone to deliver a letter to Linglong, and then waited quietly.
As expected, before waiting for half an hour, Gu Wanning came.
Gu Wanning came in a hurry, facing the sky, wearing ordinary palace clothes, with long hair tied into a simple bun, not even wearing a golden hairpin.
She had no intention of greeting her, and asked bluntly, "Where is the teacher of the Tubo country?"
She did not see him as an outsider and trusted him as always.
Luo Ting's heart was filled with warmth, and he said in a low voice: "People are inside, and Weichen has not had time to interrogate him." After a pause, he said: "There is something that I am afraid that the mother does not know." This Tubo national teacher is a woman. ”
