Chapter Seventy-Eight: Approaching
Su Yingtong didn't need to look at it to know that it was the Palace Mirror Domain, and somehow her heartbeat became faster, she let go of her hand and pretended to look at the Palace Mirror Domain calmly, "Is there something wrong with the prince?" β
Gong Jingyu sat beside her, holding an oil-paper bag in his hand, "Are you hungry?" There is a roast chicken that you like to eat. β
I had already made up my mind to ignore him, but ...... The nose sensitively smelled the tempting aroma of roast chicken, and Su Yingtong swallowed his saliva silently.
Gong Jingyu's narrow eyebrows and eyes jumped with a little smile.
Su Yingtong was completely unaware.
"Father, the mother concubine happened to be hungry, you came in time!" Gong Xiaozhao looked at his father with a look of adoration, how could his father seem to know everything!
Gong Jingyu raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
Su Yingtong unceremoniously gnawed on the chicken legs, and in a blink of an eye, he saw that the palace mirror domain was sitting on the backrest of the palace, and the long legs were casually stacked on the chair, the charming Danfeng eyes narrowed slightly, and the whole person was rarely a little lazy.
"You...... Planning to rest here? Don't get out of the car? β
Wasn't his duty to keep the emperor safe? Although the emperor's safety has nothing to do with her.
"I didn't sleep all night." Gong Jingyu's eyes showed a trace of exhaustion.
Only in front of her can he let his guard down like this.
The emperor only said that he wanted Su Zixuan to go to South China together, how did he know that Su Zhihui also followed, Su Zhihui was so uneasy, how could he let him down.
Overnight, they arranged manpower, and although they left Kyoto temporarily, Kyoto's IchiΔ wanted to get out of their control.
remembered Su Zhihui's words...... A sneer appeared on the mouth of Gong Jingyu, how do you want to share the worries of the saint? It's just a pillow companion, and after that, it's the harem to do politics.
Su Zixuan is far from having this ability, as for the other ...... Eyes turned to Su Yingtong's face, and his eyes became deep, the woman in front of him was an exception, if there was no mistake at the beginning, perhaps, she would have entered the palace.
Thinking of this possibility, I will be irritable in the bottom of my heart.
Naturally, I wanted to reach out and grab her.
Only then did she see Gong Zhaoyi on the side, so she could only turn around halfway and stretch out the roast chicken in her arms.
Sure enough, I saw her angry eyes wide, "Gongjing Domain, what are you doing!" β
His tiredness faded a lot, and he put the roast chicken out of her reach, "Roast chicken should not be eaten too much." β
"But I ......"
"Father, I want to go out and ride a horse." Gong Zhaoyi felt that he was a little redundant.
"Yes," Gong Jingyu was very refreshing, he raised the curtain slightly, and said to the guards accompanying the car, "Take Shizi to the front and let Sanshao watch." β
Gong Zhao jumped out with joy, and the guard took Xiao Shizi and rode to the front of the team.
Su Yingtong wanted to beat him, this stinky boy said he would leave, and he didn't even think to ask her opinion?
"Su Zixuan went to South China together, so you don't have anything to ask?"
"Why is that?" In fact, she had wanted to ask for a long time.
"The emperor specially ordered the guards to escort Su Zixuan over," Gong Jingyu looked at her, "I didn't expect Prime Minister Su to come over to take a look, it seems that Su Zixuan has a very high status in the Prime Minister's Mansion." But he didn't mention Su Yingtong's misidentification of Su Zhihui.
Whether it was or is now, her position in the Prime Minister's Mansion is so awkward.
Su Yingtong didn't want to discuss it anymore.
Gong Jingyu didn't ask, he would always wait until she was willing to say this to him.
"You went back to Kyoto last night?" Still want to know his whereabouts.
"Well," Gong Jingyu closed his eyes and rested, his side face was angular, and his voice was low, "The emperor is not in the palace, and there are some things that still require me to go back." β
Su Yingtong didn't ask any more. She guessed that it was for Su Zhihui, so she couldn't avoid talking about her identity as the prime minister's concubine.
The people around her are quiet, but Gong Jingyu is not used to it, she usually has no heart and lungs, but there are times when she is delicate, otherwise she will not scruple to talk about Su Zhihui.
Reach out and hold her little hand in the palm of her hand, no matter what happens to the Su family in the future, he will protect her thoroughly.
Su Yingtong pushed the palace mirror domain, wanting to break free.
Gong Jingyu leaned on her, "Let me take a break." The voice was a little tired.
Su Yingtong wanted to push him away, but saw that his handsome face was a little tired, leaning on her shoulder and breathing calmly, as if he had fallen asleep.
Thinking about his overnight run last night, he couldn't bear it.
With his free hand, he took a soft pillow from the side and cushioned it behind his waist, so let him sleep for a while.
Gong Jingyu buried his head in her neck, a smile on the corner of his lips, and finally found her weakness.
Later, Su Yingtong overheard Ye Yitian mention that their prince once stayed on the border city wall for twelve consecutive days all night, and only made up for a few hours to make up for a few hours until he repelled the enemy army, and then won the battle in the same vertical horse battlefield, Su Yingtong deeply felt that she was still too simple, in front of the palace mirror domain, she was simply too childish!
Now she saw that Gong Jingyu was sleeping deeply, only when he was really sleepy, and his eyelids were heavy, thinking that she hadn't slept for a few hours last night, she finally couldn't resist the tiredness and fell asleep against Gong Jingyu.
At the front of the team, Gong Yilin rode on a horse, and did not hesitate to praise Gong Zhaoyi next to him, "It seems that Yi'er's riding and shooting are good." β
Gong Zhaoyi and Uncle Liuwang rode a horse together, and when he heard the imperial uncle praise him, he didn't show a trace of pride, "Yi'er can't ride such a tall horse yet, and he has to practice for a few more days." β
"Not arrogant or impatient, with everyone's demeanor." Gong Yilin sincerely appreciates this imperial nephew.
Gong Lingxiao patted his little shoulder, "That's right, it's like your sixth uncle back then." β
"The mother concubine said that pride can't be a big thing." Gong Zhaoyi always doesn't forget to remember a few words about the good of the mother's concubine.
Gong Yilin's eyes flashed slightly, "How are your father and mother doing?" β
"Normally," Gong Zhaoyi wondered why the imperial uncle would ask like this, "It's not too good." β
Gong Yilin stopped talking, he glanced back at the carriage behind him, remembering that Xiangyuan was alone with her now, and his heart could not be calm.
even thought about using the identity of the emperor to order Xiangyuan to accompany him, but he was worried that he was too obvious, he had the majesty of his son of heaven.
Judging by Xiangyuan's reaction, she shouldn't have mentioned what happened last night to him, so she was smart.
For Xiangyuan, he always has some scruples.
Historically, the prince can only grant titles, and there are many restrictions on military power, but the former emperor especially loved Xiangyuan when he was alive, and he painstakingly drafted a holy decree before his death, passed on the crown prince, and was named the king of Xiangyuan, and the king of Xiangyuan assisted the new emperor to ascend the throne and take over the right to lead the army.
The decree was announced in the world for ten days, and the palace was sworn by Gong Yilin, and the emperor was relieved that the dragon returned to heaven.
Gong Yilin stood out among many princes and was named the crown prince, and then ascended the throne as the emperor, and naturally planned a lot in private, but he respected his father and the emperor, and he also had to show his generosity in front of the people of the world.
Although he was indeed unwilling at the beginning, since he was the emperor, why should he be subject to a holy decree of the emperor, and how many emperors could rest assured that his father was so partial to Xiangyuan.
But gradually, he began to understand what his father meant, although he was one year older than Xiangyuan, but his mind was never careful enough, if Xiangyuan had been loyal to him, he would really be a good helper.
I'm afraid that once he turns his back, he will be too passive.
It's better to plan ahead.
Gong Yilin set his eyes in the distance, this country, he wants to keep it, Su Yingrou, he doesn't want to let go.
When Su Yingtong woke up, he found himself leaning on Gong Jingyu's arms, his arm was still naturally around his waist, his old face suddenly turned red, and he looked up at Gong Jingyu for the first time, and saw that he was still asleep, and his heart was a little relieved.
I remember that it was Gong Jingyu who leaned on her, how did she hold him and not let go.
Su Yingtong slowly withdrew her hand depressedly, gently took away the hand that Gong Jingyu put on her waist, sat down a little, and just moved her shoulders, Gong Jingyu moved and slowly opened her eyes.
"Awake?" There was no trace of tiredness in Gong Jingyu's eyes, and he looked at the woman in front of him crampedly avoiding his gaze, his eyes disappeared from a smile, and he moved his arms.
He pretended to have just woken up, curled his index finger and pressed his eyebrows, "How long have I been asleep?" β
Su Yingtong didn't dare to look at him with a weak heart, "It's not long, and I haven't arrived at the post station yet." β
With that, the carriage stopped.
Su Yingtong lifted the curtain and looked out, and saw that the guards began to tie the horses and lay the table, and the maid also removed the utensils from the carriage, knowing that it was time to rest for a while.
"Second Shao, now there are still more than ten miles away from the Xinjiang River, and the eldest young man said to rest in place for half an hour before hurrying." A guard came to the car to report.
Su Yingtong smiled happily, and just wanted to jump out of the car, but was pulled by Gong Jingyu.
"This king hasn't gotten out of the car yet, what are you anxious about?" With that, he got out of the car.
Su Yingtong glared at his back.
Gong Jingyu happened to turn around and take in her small movements, and his face sank, "Su Yingtong." β
"What's wrong?" can only pretend to be innocent.
Gong Jingyu sighed secretly and stretched out his hand, "Come down." β
"Don't dare to bother the prince......"
"Come down." The tone hardened a little.
Su Yingtong handed him his hand depressedly.
Gong Jingyu helped her get out of the car, "In the future, you are not allowed to jump when you get off the carriage, what should I do if I am injured, do I want to send her back to Kyoto?" β
"I won't ......"
"Be careful in everything." Gong Jingyu was very strict, and when he looked up and saw the emperor coming over, he let go of her and stepped forward.
Su Yingtong didn't want to see the perverted emperor, so he turned around to find Gong Xiaozhao, but was told that the little young master and the third young master had ridden around and could only sit on the stool and drink water boredly.
A maidservant girl was busy putting cushions on the stool where Su Yingtong was sitting.
Qingzhu came to her side, "Miss, the prince asked you to go over and eat." Because Su Yingtong is now dressed as a girl, Qingzhu changed his name.
"Okay." I still have to eat food, and I can only try to ignore Gong Yilin's perversion.
Su Yingtong walked over, Su Zixuan was so ostracized, she sat on the stool on the side to eat, no one invited her to sit together, she naturally didn't dare to propose, looking at her ugly little face, Su Yingtong mourned for her in her heart, this Miss Xiangfu is so old or the first time she has been treated like this, and now it is like this, if she still insists on entering the palace to choose a concubine, it can only be said that she is self-inflicted.
