Chapter 242: Uninvited Guest
Today, an uninvited guest came to the Chaoluan Palace. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Gong Yue took out a long skirt of rust red sprinkled with bright gold engraved silk and phoenix dragging the ground, her index finger bent slightly and casually buttoned the tabletop, and the red gold inlaid jade dripping bead armor shone in the bright sun, and a dazzling glow reflected a dazzling glow that flashed Liu Ji's eyes.
Clasped the table again and again, bringing out an invisible pressure, Gong Yue came out for a long time before he spoke: "Captain Liu is coming to find Your Majesty? Why did you find this place in the palace?"
Liu Ji's plump figure that couldn't be covered by an official robe moved by Nana, "The lower official is here to find the queen's mother." ”
"Oh?" Gong Yue didn't pause in her movements, and she couldn't hear any emotion in her tone, only slightly raised her eyes and glanced at the corners of Liu Ji's half-dragged official robe.
The eyes glanced lightly, as clear as the flying sun, and when he caught a glimpse of the heel of the shoe that was not completely covered, he sank slightly.
"I think the prime minister should have mentioned it to you. Liu Ji turned her toes lightly, and pressed the corners of her robe silently with her hands, "Liu Ji is now standing in the team of you and the Gong family... Therefore, Xia Guan is here to find your mother. ”
Liu Ji thought that even if Gong Yueyu was not surprised, she would more or less ask what she was looking for, but she didn't expect her to lower her head, as if she hadn't heard it.
As if she hadn't heard her words, Gong Yuechu took care of herself and dialed the tea stalk in her cup, and asked again after a while: "Dare to ask Captain Liu, which way did you come from?"
Liu Ji's hand holding the white porcelain cup of the Eight Immortal Lotus was almost undetectable, and she secretly wondered if she had exposed anything along the way, and only smiled gracefully after a while, and said with a smile: "Xia Guan has come directly to Chaoluan Hall since he got down from the court, and naturally he came from the Xiangyang Road leading to this side from Wuji Palace... I don't know why Niangniang suddenly asked about this, but what's wrong?"
Gong Yuechu knocked on the pineapple wood carved small table on his hand, and his movements were not chaotic, and his eyes were also peaceful and dignified, he shook his head and smiled elegantly: "It's okay, it's just nothing to ask." Bengong expected that Captain Liu should come over at once, and he didn't have time to have some breakfast, so he thought about asking someone to arrange it. ”
When Liu Ji heard the three words "useless work", she felt very harsh, but after thinking about it carefully, she felt that there was nothing else, it might be the first time she faced these women in the palace, and it was inevitable that she was too cautious and sensitive.
Gong Yueyu lowered her eyes again, hiding the complexity.
She saw that the soil on Liu Ji's shoes was the unique Jiangyuan clay red clay near the Wanzhu Tower in the Imperial Garden.
This soil is the first emperor in order to please a concubine who lived in the Jiangyuan area before entering the palace, specially sent someone from Jiangyuan to transport it by waterway, in order to plant a delicate Jiangyuan Wanzhu in the imperial garden, and then the concubine fell out of favor, this bamboo forest is prosperous, and it has been transporting soil to raise.
This is the only place in the entire palace that has this kind of sticky red soil unique to Jiangyuan, but the Xiangyang Road that Liu Ji said will not pass through the Imperial Garden at all, let alone Wanzhulou, so she can only lie.
This is actually not Liu Ji's negligence, it is really that she is new to the palace, especially the layout of the harem, how can she notice such a thing as the soil under her feet, and she is not wronged this time.
Gong Yuechu didn't want to dwell too much on this issue, so as not to startle the snake, after all, for her, the direction of Wanzhulou was a good breakthrough, and it was very likely to help her find some clues, and she would naturally not let go or miss this opportunity in vain.
So she turned back to the topic of Fang Cai, "Captain Liu laughed, my father really didn't mention the relationship between Captain Liu and the Gong family to the palace. Presumably, the prime minister also knows that this woman who marries into the palace can only be regarded as the emperor's person, and there is no reason to continue to be entangled with her mother's family. ”
"So..."Gong Yuechu raised her head to look at Liu Ji, and her hand on the table stopped at some point, "If Captain Liu has any ideas, it is better to go directly to the Prime Minister's Mansion, this palace is a woman's ear, and his identity is sensitive, so he really can't get involved in the political affairs of the previous dynasty." ”
When Liu Jifang heard this, she was still a little misty and didn't know what to mean, and after a pause, she realized that Gong Yueyu was mentioning the topic at the beginning, and this one after the other, she had already disrupted the rhythm she had arranged in advance, and the panic was only in an instant, Liu Ji calmed down, rolled up her sleeves and smiled stupidly, "Look at what you said, Niangniang, it is too dignified and serious." You don't want to think that the lower officials are just one or four grades of false positions, how can you be qualified to talk about national politics. I came to you just to say hello as the prime minister said. ”
Gong Yuechu was silent and smiled sarcastically.
Fang Cai also told himself that Prime Minister Gong had already mentioned her to him, but after a while, he changed his tone and said that he was here to say hello.
It doesn't hurt to slap yourself in the face.
However, looking at her attitude and the conversation that did not get into the main topic for a long time, presumably this trip was only a tentative intention to meet her.
Gong Yuezhu has no intention of being entangled with Liu Ji, at least for now, she has more important things to do.
"Since Captain Liu has also been greeted..."She Shi Shiran got up, "The palace is also lacking." ”
Liu Ji obviously didn't expect Gong Yuechu to be such a master who didn't enter the oil and salt, this time she originally had the intention of temptation, but she didn't expect that she couldn't receive any substantive results after some exchanges, and even shocked the snake and exposed herself for no reason.
She had a feeling that this palace moonrise would definitely start to guard against her.
"And... Rong Bengong said more. Gong Yue's voice was slightly cool, "No matter what reason you find today to come to my Chaoluan Palace, but the identity of this palace is really not suitable to have too much to do with you, and there are countless eyeliners in this palace, so can you understand?"
Half of her words were left and half were very obscure, but Liu Ji heard them clearly, her eyes became darker and darker, the smile on her face deepened, and her originally serious face returned to her usual charm at this moment.
Finally walked out of the Chaoluan Palace, Liu Ji reached out and gently wiped the sweat on her forehead, and let out a long breath - this queen is also a difficult lord to deal with... This Northern Qi is really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger.
Gong Yueli, who was sitting upright in the Luan Palace, also exhaled heavily after Liu Ji left.
Immediately, his eyes lit up, and his face was shallow, noble, and dignified smile, but his eyes were faintly cold.
She called softly: "Huanyue." ”
"Mother?"
"Let's see, why hasn't the prime minister arrived yet?" Gong Yuechu knocked on the table again, a trace of disgust crossed her face, and she said coldly, "Send someone to call him." ”
"No need!" someone walked in from the direction of the door.
Gong Yueyu immediately raised her eyes and looked over.
