Gu Jinxing and his wife took Jun Ge'er into the palace to ask for peace, and Gu Guanning left the three of them to have lunch in the Jiaofang Palace.

Xiao Xu, who had dispersed the court, also came, entered the Jiaofang Palace, took off his dragon robe and changed into regular clothes, first talked to his children, and then asked Gu Guanning affectionately how he was doing in the past half a day.

Like an ordinary husband returning home after a busy day away.

Gu Wanning said with a smile: "The eldest brother and sister-in-law brought Brother Jun into the palace to see me, and I am very happy for half a day." ”

The three-year filial piety period has not passed, and the emperor and queen are all in the palace, and it is not appropriate to leave the palace. Because of this, Gu Guanning has not returned to Dingbei Hou Mansion for more than two years. I was happy to see my mother's family.

Xiao Xu immediately said: "You stay in the Jiaofang Hall all day, it's really a little boring. After some time, I will let my sister-in-law come into the palace to talk to you. Luo Yao and the eldest sister, you can also be summoned into the palace as a companion. ”

What Xiao Xu said was Luo Zhixuan, Yao Ruozhu, Gu Guanhua and others. Several of them are Gu Guanning's closest sisters and friends.

Gu Wanning smiled and hummed.

Xiao Xu and Gu Wanning gossiped a few words, and looked at Gu Jinxing and his wife with a smile: "It's rare for the eldest brother and sister-in-law to enter the palace, so you don't have to be restrained." Just talk as you used to. ”

The husband and wife answered together.

There were no outsiders, and there were no separate tables for men and women, so lunch was as casual as a family feast. The children had a rare opportunity to play together, and after a few quick bites, they went out hand in hand.

Xiao Xu rarely saw Gillian and Ah Yi in such a good mood, and said with a smile: "Wait for a year or two, let Brother Jun come to the palace to be Ah Yi's companion." The two cousins are also convenient and always close. ”

"The two of us have thought of one thing," Gu Wanning pursed his lips and smiled: "I have already told my eldest brother and sister-in-law." ”

Xiao Xu winked at Gu Wanning: "This is a little bit of a good idea." ”

is already an old husband and wife, and the flesh is numb and still the same as before.

Gu Jinxing secretly shook goosebumps all over his body. Turning his face, he saw that Cui Junyao's eyes showed envy and yearning, and he immediately laughed in a low voice: "Our husband and wife also have the same heart. ”

Cui Junyao gently smacked him, her eyes full of shy smiles.

……

That same evening.

When the emperor and queen were alone, Xiao Xu asked in a low voice: "What is the reason why the eldest brother specially entered the palace today?"

Gu Wanning raised the corners of his lips slightly: "It is entrusted by Cui Shangshu." ”

Xiao Xu was stunned for a moment, and raised his thick eyebrows slightly: "What does Cui Shangshu have to ask for?"

Gu Wanning smiled: "You might as well guess!"

Xiao Xu's eyes flashed, he thought for a moment, and then showed a knowing smile, leaned into Gu Wanning's ear and whispered a few words.

"Even if it's not in the middle, it's not far away!" Gu Wanning smiled, and then said eloquently. Cui Shangshu specially asked Cui Junyao to bring him into the palace, and naturally said it word for word.

Xiao Xu's expression was a little complicated, and he said after a while: "Sure enough, it's an old fox!"

Isn't it?

Take a step back in exchange for more benefits. While bowing his head to the emperor and showing goodwill, he confidently asked "Cui Jiaerlang to go to the soup for the emperor"...... In other words, it is to ask for a good future for Cui Jiaerlang.

Gu Wanning also smiled and sighed: "This Cui Shangshu is indeed sophisticated and shrewd. It's just that people can't feel bad. ”

Xiao Xu thought about it and smiled: "That's it, he's still interesting." Seeing that the situation is not good, I have decided to surrender to me. As long as he is loyal to me, it doesn't hurt for me to promote Cui Jiaerlang. ”

Cui Shangshu did raise three good sons. Cui Dalang Cui Erlang acts steadily, Cui Saburo is witty and intelligent, and he has learned people, and they are all usable talents.

Gu Wanning pondered for a moment and said, "This matter should not be rushed. Wait until the next year is out of filial piety. Moreover, before that, it is necessary to 'foreshadow' a little, so as not to be too abrupt and suspicious. ”

Xiao Xu replied with a smile: "It's up to you to decide these things." ”

As he spoke, he leaned over.

When he was about to kiss Fang Ze, there was a few knocks on the door.

Xiao Xu paused, and asked in a voice a little unpleasantly, "Who is it?"

It's so late, what's the reason why we can't wait until tomorrow to report back?

Linlang's slightly hurried voice sounded outside the door: "Emperor Qiqi Empress Niang, Concubine Li Fang sent palace people to deliver the letter, Princess Danyang committed suicide and wanted to commit suicide, but fortunately she found it in time and was saved a life." It's just that there is a deep bruise on his neck, and now he is unconscious. ”

Xiao Xu was stunned, and subconsciously looked at Gu Wanning.

Gu Guanning's blush faded from his face, and his expression became a little solemn.

Unexpectedly, Princess Danyang would commit suicide!

……

Although Princess Danyang is not favored, she is a royal princess in the end, and suddenly she found a short view, and Concubine Li was scared enough. After saving people, he immediately sent people to Cining Palace and Jiaofang Hall to deliver letters.

After hearing the news, Empress Dowager Min hurriedly came to visit.

When I arrived at the gate of the dormitory, I happened to meet Xiao Xu and Gu Guanning.

Empress Dowager Min frowned quite tightly, and when she saw the two of them, she immediately asked in a low voice: "What the hell is going on?

This kind of thing is always not very good, and it will damage the face of the royal family.

Xiao Xu hesitated slightly, not knowing what to say for a while.

Gu Wanning had already said softly: "There are indeed some reasons for this, and it is inconvenient to say more now." After tonight, the daughter-in-law will report to her mother carefully. ”

Empress Dowager Min nodded and didn't ask any more.

The three of them entered the dormitory together.

Concubine Lifang, who looked worried, hurriedly greeted her and saluted with a bitter face.

Empress Dowager Min opened her mouth and asked, "Danyang is worried about his life?"

Concubine Li replied: "The imperial doctor is seeing Princess Danyang inside, and the injury on her neck is quite serious, but there should be no serious life." ”

While replying, I was uneasy.

Over the years, Princess Danyang has been raised by her side. She is also dedicated to Princess Danyang. However, in the end, it is not biological, and it is always separated by a layer of belly. At the same time, Princess Danyang has a dull temperament, and as she gets older, her temperament becomes more and more withdrawn. I can't say two words a day. Concubine Li Fang usually takes care of her, but she never knows what is on her mind.

Therefore, after Concubine Li Fang was shocked to hear the bad news of Princess Danyang's suicide, her first reaction was shock, and the second reaction was over!

Empress Dowager Min will definitely blame her for not taking good care of her! Maybe she will also be angry with her daughter, Princess Hengyang.

Concubine Li lowered her head and tried her best to show humility and self-blame: "It's all the concubines who are inconsiderate and negligent." Please also ask the Queen Mother to punish her severely!"

Empress Dowager Min was in a chaotic mood, how could she have the leisure to punish her severely, and said angrily: "Cure Danyang first." After saying that, he took the lead into the dormitory.

Xiao Xu and Gu Guanning followed behind Empress Dowager Min and stepped in together.

Concubine Li secretly breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly followed.
