Although he is reluctant to give up his daughter who has worked hard to cultivate, but now it can only be like this, Gongsun He kowtowed and said: "The emperor understands the intentions of the eldest prince, but the eldest prince is stubborn, and the child will kneel at the door, not for anything else, just to see the sinner girl Qian'er, do your best filial piety, and hope that the emperor can fulfill it." ，x.”

Gongsun He had already made up his mind after listening to Qi You's words, he could only try his best to make up for the eldest prince, and never mentioned the matter of intercession, but just leaned on the eldest prince's behavior towards filial piety, wanting to protect the eldest prince and give Qi You a face.

Qi You heard it and said: "The filial piety of the eldest prince is still very clear, but now in extraordinary times, the eldest prince is unstable, I am afraid that it will not be good to see it, and it is not too late to talk about this matter when the eldest prince's mood is stable, I will not refute his filial piety." ”

Although he said it tactfully, Qi You meant not to agree, and Gongsun He also heard it and said: "Yes, the emperor is still thoughtful, and it is the criminal who is negligent." ”

Qi You let out a sigh of relief and said: "In this situation, the most uncomfortable and embarrassing thing should be me, but I can't be sad or angry, but I am looking at the hard work of your Gongsun family for many years and the face of the eldest prince, I have given you everything, and you should also be thoughtful, right?" ”

When Gongsun He heard this, he immediately kowtowed and said: "The criminal minister will go all out and never let down the emperor's kindness, thank you for the emperor's kindness." ”

"Okay, I know that you are an understanding person, and you have been kneeling for a while, get up, and I will hand over to you, the eldest prince who is kneeling outside. I hope you won't let me down. Qi You asked Gongsun He to calm his back and said.

Gongsun He naturally knew that this was the emperor's last order, so he bowed down and said: "The guilty minister will not live up to the emperor's trust!" ”

"Okay, it's good that you understand it in your heart, you can also take this big prince back, and if you kneel again, you don't know what words will come out." Qi You raised his hand.

Gongsun He immediately bowed and bowed and withdrew from the Heart Cultivation Palace, the door of this hall had just been closed, and Gongsun He's body suddenly shook unsteadily, but fortunately, he was supported by Gonggong Xue and said, "Gongsun Lord be careful." ”

has just experienced the threshold of life and death, and Gongsun He's close-fitting robe is already soaked, and now he is outside the hall. The cold wind of early spring blows. I really couldn't help but shudder, but under this cold and hot attack, Gongsun He couldn't stand still.

With the help of Gonggong Xue, Gongsun He regained the focus of his eyes and thanked him with a look on his face: "Thank you Gonggong Xue." ”

"Lord Gongsun is polite, you're okay. Do you want the old slave to ask the doctor to come and see you? Xue Gonggong said with concern.

The paleness on Gongsun He's face has not subsided. But he could only force a smile and said, "It's okay." It's okay, maybe it's too hot in the hall, and the cold wind suddenly blows and it's a little cold. I'm fine, thank you Grandpa Xue for your concern. ”

Gonggong Xue also smiled and said, "It's okay if Gongsun is fine, it's okay." Saying that, Father-in-law Xue also withdrew his hand.

Gongsun He smiled: "I'm tired of Grandpa Xue, I'm going to go back." ”

Father-in-law Xue nodded and smiled: "Then the old slave won't send more, the emperor is still waiting for the old slave to serve, Lord Gongsun, you can go slowly." ”

After that, Gonggong Xue returned to the hall, and outside the hall, Gongsun He looked up at the sky, as if he was holding back the tears in his eyes, he couldn't tell whether it was surprise or joy, not for Gongsun Qian or for himself, after a while, he lowered his head and looked at the eldest prince kneeling there, and this worry crawled all over his old cheeks.

When the eldest prince saw his grandfather Gongsun He coming out of the hall, he called with an expectant face: "Grandfather, is my father going to see me?" ”

Gongsun He walked a few steps quickly to the eldest prince's side and whispered: "The emperor is not angry with you because of your mother's affairs, so don't be unhappy with yourself, get up quickly, and go back with your grandfather!" ”

"Grandfather! Father disagrees? The eldest prince was stunned.

"Don't say anything more, I really want to see your mother go back with your grandfather first and then discuss in the long run, this is not the place to talk, hurry up." Gongsun He didn't want to talk much here.

The eldest prince was stunned, looking at his ancestor's angry but firm eyes, he still resigned himself to crawling up from the ground, and went out of the palace with Gongsun He with a disheartened face.

The eldest prince left the door of the Heart Cultivation Palace, and Gonggong Xue opened the door and came out to take a look, and then went back and replied: "Your Majesty, Lord Gongsun has persuaded the eldest prince to leave. ”

"Hey, this Gongsun is smart and will give up, this is really still something to learn." Qi You sighed.

"Your Majesty, the old slave has a sentence that I don't know whether to say or not?" Xue Gonggong bowed and said.

Qi You glanced at him and said, "Just say anything." ”

Gonggong Xue let out a sigh of relief and said: "Your Majesty, you have not allowed the eldest prince to see the Gongsun family, will this eldest prince have a mustard in his heart?" ”

Qi You smiled and said, "Feeling guilty? Gongsun He is not a fool, the Gongsun clan is guilty of enough to be beheaded, and I am just a solitary confinement, they will not be stupid enough to spend the lives of a hundred or dozens of people to go to such a person who has been abolished. ”

Xue Gonggong pondered for a moment before saying, "This is for them to choose." ”

"Exactly!" Qi You said.

"In this way, the emperor is much better for the Gongsun family than for Prime Minister Le." Xue Gonggong naturally muttered to himself.

"Oh, why do you think so?" Qi You said sideways.

"At least there is such a hope as the eldest prince of the Gongsun family, and the five princes of the Kele clan no longer belong to the Le family, isn't there even a hope?" Xue Gonggong said his own opinion.

"Le ...... Hmph, it's all her own fault, if she didn't have this child, maybe she wouldn't have fallen into this step. Qi You said vaguely, but Xue Gonggong naturally knew that Qi You was calculated by the Le family back then and had the evil spirit of the five princes, such a big thing, Prime Minister Le Cheng had no reason not to know, so the Le family should be like this.

"Then the emperor will keep holding it down?" Gonggong Xue was a little worried about the reaction of the courtiers.

"As long as Prime Minister Le and Lord Gongsun understand in their own hearts, do I need to say more?" Qi You asked rhetorically.

"Yes, the old slave understands. It's just that the queen and the second prince ...... there," Xue Gonggong was a little unsure of what to say.

"Father-in-law Xue, I know you're worried, but you still have to cooperate with me in this play, otherwise I really won't be able to end it all at once." Qi You said with a smile.

"Hey, the emperor just orders, the old slave must go all out." Father-in-law Xue said humbly and respectfully.

"That's good, okay, I still have to finish reading these excerpts, the hour is not early, don't forget to go to Changxin Palace to arrange tonight's dinner." Qi You commanded.

"Don't worry. Emperor. The old slave woke up. With that, Gonggong Xue retreated.

The hall was quiet again.

At this time, in the Changxin Palace, Huan Yan's story was heard about the part where Xibao and Qi You went to the royal hunting ground, and Xibao had been telling it for more than an hour. I need several pots of tea. But Huanyan was fascinated by it. said that he would not let go of his own mother.

Xibao was obsessed with Huanyan for a while, and he could only continue to talk about it, just talking about Xibao and Qi You, when Qi Zhe and the three of them went to ride a horse. Outside the door, Huan Yue's voice came from asking for peace: "Mother, my son is here!" ”

Xibao immediately sat up when he heard this, and he was secretly relieved, but Huan Yan was interrupted by his younger brother for no reason, so he was a little unhappy in his heart, frowning and saying first: "Why are you here?" ”

Huan Yue laughed when her sister asked this: "You can come, I can't come?" ”

"Aren't you going to your father?" Huan Yan asked.

Huan Yue said while taking off her big hat: "I've been there, it just so happens that my father can't get away from something, so I took the opportunity to come to my mother's concubine, how rare this opportunity is, I'm not stupid." ”

"You!" Huan Yan was angry by his younger brother's appearance.

Huan Yue didn't care at all, she immediately climbed the mountain to warm the kang, and drank a large cup of tea before saying, "What are the concubines and sisters talking about here?" ”

Xibao smiled: "Let's talk casually, but I just want to take advantage of the days before your sister got married to get closer and closer." ”

"That's right, if this sister gets married, it won't be easy to come back." Huan Yue nodded in agreement.

"Isn't this the case after a woman marries a wife, you see the mother, the eldest uncle, and the second uncle, aren't they all very rare to go back to their parents' homes, as the saying goes, the water spilled by the married daughter can't be recovered." Huan Yue glanced at her while jokingly chattering.

Huan Yan bit her lip angrily and threw the pillow next to her, and Huan Yue caught it, even if she caught it, Huan Yue also said with a look of grievance: "Mother, take a look, my sister is so short-tempered, she has already bullied me like this in two sentences, if I marry in the future, I will be relaxed, but Second Brother Jiang will be unlucky." ”

"Qi Huanyue!" Huan Yan really roared through gritted teeth.

"Oh, mother, help!" Seeing this, Huan Yue immediately rolled to Xibao's side to seek refuge.

Huan Yan is not bad, he dragged Huan Yue out directly from behind Xi Bao, ready to twist his ears to vent, but Huan Yue was more dexterous than Huan Yan, and he got out and jumped on the ground with a backward flip.

Seeing this, Huan Yan also chased down, and the two chased and frolicked in this warm pavilion, Xibao knew that this was a joke between the sisters and brothers, so he smiled and didn't speak, and outside Wenqin and Wenqi looked at each other funny when they heard the noise inside, and then they all shook their heads and went to their own things.

This has been making trouble for about another quarter of an hour, and the time is not short, even Huan Yue is a little out of breath, not to mention Huan Yan, who is already out of breath and almost has no strength, he is holding his waist with one hand and holding his chest with the other, panting and glaring at Huan Yue angrily.

Seeing this, Xibao smiled and said: "Okay, okay, how old are you both, and you are still making such a fuss, if you let your father see it and don't talk about the two of you, okay, come and sit down!" ”

As soon as Xibao spoke, Huan Yue went back and sat down first, Huan Yan glanced at Huan Yue and said, "I will spare you first when I look at my mother's concubine today, hum!" ”

Seeing this, Huan Yue grinned and said, "Hehe, then thank my sister for your mercy!" ”

"Humph!" Huan Yan said disdainfully as he sat down.

"It's done, how can there be so much temperament between sisters and brothers, one person should say a word, it's true, only your father can cure the two of you." Xibao said helplessly.

Huan Yue answered: "Hehe, mother, don't worry, my father will be busy, and he won't be able to get over for a while." ”

"What, is your father seeing anyone?" Xibao asked.

"Well, see Gongsun Shangshu." Huan Yue said.

"Gongsun Shangshu?" Xibao was puzzled.

"Hmm...... Yes, the son was going to go to his father's palace to practice politics, but when he arrived at the door, he saw the eldest brother kneeling at the door, and I felt strange in my heart, so I asked Xue Gonggong, and Xue Gonggong told me about it, saying that my father was talking to Gongsun Shangshu, and it was estimated that it would take a while, and I heard that I came to my mother's concubine first. Huan Yue said truthfully.

"The eldest prince is kneeling at the door of the main hall?" Xibao asked.

"Well, I heard Gonggong Xue say that he came for Concubine Xian, and he has been kneeling for another hour, and his father has not seen him, so he has been kneeling." Huan Yue said.

"Is this an expression of filial piety or a threat to my father?" Huanyan was puzzled when he heard this. (To be continued.) )
