"Do you think the two of them can be trusted?"

After the prince of Wei and the prince of Han left, the chamberlains also retreated. There are only two emperors and queens left in the bedroom. Xiao Xu asked casually.

Gu Wanning raised his eyebrows slightly, and his voice was calm and indifferent: "They must be trustworthy." ”

Both of them are smart people and must know what to do.

If there is even the slightest rumor of unfavorable news against the emperor and queen, the first unlucky ones will be the two of them!

Xiao Xu thought for a while and smiled: "Cousin Rin doesn't talk much, but his mind is transparent, and he can calm down. Cousin Lie is a little more impulsive, but he is also a smart man. As long as you go around the corner, you will try to cover it up. No traces will be revealed. ”

In the end, they all grew up beside Emperor Yuanyou, and there is no shortage of scheming city mansions.

Gu Guanning smiled slightly: "What you said is true." Both of them are shrewd and capable people. The only thing to worry about is the word faithfulness. ”

In the nature of the descendants of the Xiao family, they all have the deepest desire and obsession for the throne. On weekdays, this ambition will be strictly concealed, and once there is an opportunity, this ambition will take root and break through the ground uncontrollably.

In short, it's a double-edged sword.

If you can't control it, you will hurt yourself.

"Today, I deliberately let the two of them know that it was you who wrote Zhu Pi on my behalf," Xiao Xu's eyes flashed: "First, let them cover up for you in front of the ministers." Second, there is also the meaning of taking the opportunity to beat. ”

I know you're suspicious. Just tell me bluntly.

So, what do you do next?

Gu Wanning said angrily: "Envoy Yin said, let you stop distracting." That's why I won't even let you see it. Hello, don't think about these things anymore. ”

Xiao Xu immediately obediently admitted his mistake: "What the queen mother said is very true, I will lie down and rest." ”

"Flim Flam. Gu Wanning glared at him, and there was a hint of a smile in his eyes.

After Xiao Xu lay down and closed his eyes, he soon fell asleep.

The smile in Gu Wanning's eyes quietly disappeared.

After a month of resting, Xiao Xu's body still did not improve. I spend more time falling asleep every day than I did at the beginning. This is clearly not a sign of improvement.

The doctors in the Tai Hospital asked for pulse consultations every day, and they couldn't tell what was going on.

Xiao Xu didn't want her to worry, and always behaved extremely relaxed in front of her.

She also didn't want Xiao Xu to know her worries, and rarely mentioned her illness.

The husband and wife acted with each other, and they could deceive each other, but they couldn't deceive themselves.

……

After Xiao Xu fell asleep, Gu Wanning quietly walked out of the bedroom.

Chen Yueniang and others, who were waiting outside, immediately gathered around.

Gu Wanning looked at Chen Yueniang and said softly: "Master, the battle report was sent from the border pass today. Ah Yan and Xu Cang have developed a prescription, and the plague in the army has been controlled. ”

Everyone's faces were full of joy.

Especially Chen Yueniang and Sango, who have been worrying a lot these days. At this time, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

Gu Guanning said again: "Please ask the master to write a letter to Xu Cang, and ask him to return to Beijing immediately after receiving the letter." ”

Chen Yueniang smiled, didn't ask much about the reason, and opened her mouth to answer.

Actually, there is no need to ask. The imperial doctors obviously didn't have any good ways to deal with the emperor's illness, and they didn't get better in the past month. If it weren't for the urgent need for Xu Cang at the border gate, Gu Guanning would have already issued an order to summon Xu Cang back to Beijing.

At present, the plague of the border army has been stabilized, and it is okay for Xu Cang to return to Beijing.

Gu Guanning did not personally issue the phoenix decree, obviously not wanting to arouse suspicion.

In other words, the illness of the Son of Heaven cannot be spread at this moment. so as not to cause people's hearts to fluctuate and the court to turmoil.

……

Evening.

Dingbei Hou Mansion.

Mrs. Tai was seriously ill and hurt her vitality. has been recuperating in Zhenghe Hall, and the trivial matters in the house are basically no longer asked. The children and grandchildren did not dare to disturb Mrs. Tai's tranquility.

The only exception is Gu Hai.

Every day when he returns from the court, no matter how late it is, Gu Hai always has to come to Zhenghetang.

"Third child, what is the good news in the DPRK today?" Mrs. Tai saw Gu Hai's brisk steps, and there was a hint of joy between her eyebrows, and her heart floated with anticipation: "Is the border army victorious?"

Gu Hai smiled: "It's more pleasing than winning a battle." ”

Quickly told the report of today's battle.

Mrs. Tai was really very happy: "This is very good! It is really blessed by God! Ah Yan has really made a great contribution this time." ”

praised Shen Jinyan by the way.

Gu Hai's heart knot had been resolved, and he was much more tolerant of Shen Jinyan, and echoed with a smile: "I didn't expect that he would have such courage and courage to live in the military camp. Moreover, his medical skills are really better than those so-called famous doctors. ”

Shen Jinyan began to study medicine with Master Huiping at the age of eight, and then studied under the divine doctor Xu Cang, and learned a superb medical skill. At critical times, it came in handy.

The plague was suppressed, and the greatest crisis of the border army was solved.

No wonder Mrs. Tai is so happy.

"By the way, the emperor hasn't been to the court for a month, right?" asked Mrs. Tai with concern, "What is the emperor's illness?"

Gu Hai smiled.

Mrs. Tai's heart sank, and she hurriedly asked, "Could it be that the emperor's condition has worsened?"

"I don't know. Gu Hai never hid something from Mrs. Tai, frowned and responded: "The emperor is recuperating in the palace, and he doesn't see the courtiers." What the symptoms are, it is all the words of the Queen Mother, and the ministers don't know. ”

Mrs. Tai's brows also furrowed, and she whispered: "It seems that the emperor's illness is not trivial. ”

Otherwise, it will not be so concealed.

Gu Hai's eyes flashed, and he lowered his voice: "Someone is suspicious that the emperor is seriously ill and can't afford to review it at all. It's just that the fold has indeed been reviewed, and the handwriting on it is no different from the emperor's handwriting. ”

Mrs. Tai was taken aback, Huo Ran looked at Gu Hai: "What do you mean......"

Gu Hai nodded.

Mrs. Tai's brow was almost twisted into a knot.

Gu Wanning is good at imitating people's handwriting. Outsiders don't know, but of course they know it very well.

Taking care of Hai In this way, if this twist and turn is not approved by the Son of Heaven himself, it is obviously from Gu Guanning's hand.

It took Mrs. Tai a while to squeeze out a sentence: "This matter must not be known." ”

Gu Hai said in a deep voice: "The prince of Wei, the prince of Han, sent the fold to the Funing Hall today, and after coming back, he seemed to have inadvertently mentioned it, and witnessed the emperor review the fold. ”

Mrs. Tai stopped talking again, and looked at Gu Hai for a moment before sighing slowly: "It seems that this piece must have been approved by Sister Ning." ”

The prince of Wei and the prince of Han were obviously covering up for the emperor.

Gu Hai nodded.

This was also his conjecture.

"Wang Ge Lao Cui Ge Lao and them, they are silent for the time being. Gu Hai said in a low voice: "However, if you continue like this, you won't be able to hide it for too long." ”

Mrs. Tai couldn't help but sigh: "What can I do about this." ”

Gu Hai is quite confident in Gu Wanning: "Mother doesn't have to worry too much. Wanning will definitely find a way to deal with it. ”
