Chapter 167: Near Death and Survival
The voice outside the door Gu Qianyan was gradually unable to hear clearly, she wanted to go back to the window, but her steps seemed to be a thousand pounds and difficult to move, and then the hand holding the wall slowly slipped down......
Creation makes people, Gu Qianyan never imagined that one day he would die in Yang Pinglan's mansion.
The body slowly slid to the ground, Gu Qianyan could vaguely see the birdcage in the smoke, the canary in the cage seemed to be alive, the body was bouncing around in the cage and looked so uneasy, Gu Tianyan closed his eyes slightly.
Originally, I thought about the opportunity of how to make a comeback countless times, but I didn't expect that I would not be able to wait for this day.
"What are you two doing?!"
The scolding outside the door was the last voice Gu Tianyan heard before she fell into a coma, she closed her eyes, and she never knew if the voice outside the door would become her salvation in the future.
When Gu Qianyan woke up again, she was already lying outside Qingyanju's house, and there was a strange man squatting in front of her, watching Gu Qianyan wake up, she inevitably felt some joy.
"I'm afraid you're going to die in there."
Gu Tianyan shook his head, his throat couldn't make any sound for the time being, and he couldn't even say a word of thanks when he looked at the strange man in front of him.
The man stood up, looked at Gu Tianyan who woke up, and said, "It's good that you wake up, I thought something big had happened in the harem, let's go back here slowly!"
I can't stay here long, so I won't be with you. But you'd better go back early, if you walk around outside on this cold day, you'll only catch a cold, and your body looks thinner than the average palace maid. ”
Gu Qianyan looked at the distant figure and nodded, closed his eyes and took a deep breath before slowly sitting up from the ground, the two maidservants who were fanning the fire outside the door, Gu Tingyan had disappeared before she knew who it was, leaving her alone in the cold night.
Gu Tianyan couldn't help but cough twice in his throat, although his face didn't seem to have improved much, but he had picked up a life from the Ghost Gate.
Feng Jinglan didn't know anything about Gu Tingyan being bullied, let alone Feng Jinglan, even if it was Mr. Qingchen, or Luping Qiuting, how would he know that Gu Tingyan's current situation was like this.
The sky was slightly bright, Gu Tianyan got up and walked to the residence, and before he could rest properly after entering the house, he was arranged by the palace maid to carry water and laundry.
Gu Qianyan had never done rough work before, and she didn't rest all night, so her body was naturally a little unable to hold on, and when she picked up the bucket of water again, even someone fell to the ground with the bucket.
The palace maid in charge frowned and walked to Gu Qianyan's side, looking at Gu Tianyan's pale expression, she didn't have the slightest pity, but said dissatisfiedly.
"What time is it now, what are you going to pretend to be pitiful on this ground, don't think I don't know what you slept on last night, is it possible that even the high bed and soft couch used to be by Concubine Yang is not enough for you to enjoy, and it still makes it difficult for you to sleep?" The palace maid in charge clasped her hands and looked at Gu Tianyan arrogantly, which looked like a little slave in this palace, but it looked a little bit like a wife and concubine of the prince's mansion.
Gu Tianyan didn't speak, slowly got up from the ground, picked up two more wooden barrels and walked back.
"You can't even pick up water now, what use will you have in the future?"
Gu Qianyan lowered her head and didn't speak, her current situation was like a little ant in the prince's mansion, bullying others at will, in addition to not beating and scolding, looking at what those people did, she looked like she wanted to torture Gu Tianyan to death.
And Gu Qianyan came to the water's edge again, filled a small half bucket of water, and walked back with a flat shoulder.
"Why is it so slow, if everyone were like you, all these things would not have to be done." The palace maid in charge said, looking at Gu Tianyan and said impatiently: "A few of you teach her how to be a servant girl, so that she can clearly understand what kind of status she is today." ”
"Sister, don't we dare to teach Gu Liangdi, when the time comes, Gu Liangdi will be unhappy with us, or take out her posture of having sex again, but how can we be good." One of the maidservants deliberately sneered.
The palace maid in charge glanced at Gu Tianyan and said in a low voice: "It sounds good to have a room, but it's not the maid here, do you really think that Gu Tianyan can still go to sleep in the palace as a room?" His Royal Highness the Crown Prince already hated Gu Tianyan, and it was no longer possible for her to turn over in her life. ”
The palace maid in charge said this, which roughly means that now Gu Tianyan can be bullied by them casually, and he must be in a situation where he can't fight back or scold.
Several maidservants glanced at each other, nodded in unison for a while, and then the palace maid in charge left, and those people naturally intensified with the orders of the palace maid.
Gu Tianyan just put down the bucket in his hand, picked up the small half bucket and poured it into the wooden basin, but the other half bucket was kicked to the ground by a maidservant.
Gu Tianyan turned his head to look at the palace maid who made such a move, the expression on his face was still flat, and there was no fluctuation.
"What do you see, is it possible that I still need your approval for what I do, since the water is gone, I will carry it back, such a trivial matter, is it possible that I still need to teach you?"
"Not necessarily." Gu Tianyan picked up the two buckets on the ground and walked away.
"Gu Qianyan." The maidservant called out Gu Qianyan's name and surname, and when Gu Qianyan turned around, she overturned the wooden basin in front of her: "This dress will be soaked when you come back, come back and wash it again, otherwise these silks, if they are broken, you may not be able to eat and walk around, I am helping you." ”
Listening to the maid's words, Gu Tianyan couldn't help but feel annoyed, but the situation at this time was that people had to bow their heads under the eaves, and no matter what, Gu Tianyan couldn't vent his temper here.
He can only be called here like a little lamb by these handmaidens who look down on people.
And this scene happened to be imprinted in the eyes of Lu Ping and Qiu Ting, if Qiu Ting hadn't forcibly pulled Lu Ping, he wouldn't have said that with Lu Ping's temper, he would have to rush forward and find himself unhappy.
"Calm down first, now the scene of the master's suffering here, we must remember it at all, and let these people look good when the master makes a comeback." Qiu Ting comforted.
Lu Ping glanced at the scene not far away, and had to take a long breath: "Is there really nothing we can do to help the master now?" Look at what the master has been bullied by those people, if you continue like this, you have to be killed by those people here. ”
"Take your time, there is always a chance, we need a proper time to go to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Qiu Ting analyzed.
"If there is no right time in this life, will the master have to suffer here all the time until the fragrance is lost!" Luping said distressedly, tears sliding down uncontrollably. Seeing Gu Tianyan being bullied, she was much more uncomfortable than being bullied and tortured herself.
Qiu Ting looked at Lu Ping's appearance, and didn't dare to say to Lu Ping, it was Chu Jiaorou who let these people bully Gu Qianyan and make Gu Qianyan's situation in this palace embarrassing.
Now not only is Gu Tanyan embarrassed, but the two of them are no better.
"Let's go back to Yalanju first, and then look here, I'm afraid you can't help but be impulsive." Qiu Ting said, and couldn't help but pull Luping and leave.
"I know, but I can't let my master be bullied inside, I don't quarrel with these people, I can always go up and help my master! The master is also a beautiful lady in the Gu Mansion, how can he have suffered such a hardship. ”
Listening to Lu Ping's words, Qiu Ting also understood that Gu Qianyan had lived a life of fine clothes and food since he was a child, even if he did not become a wife and concubine in the prince's mansion this time, he could marry a young grandmother of a merchant family, how could he fall into this situation.
But Qiu Ting still left with Lu Ping, Lu Ping reluctantly glanced at Gu Qianyan's location, and let out a sigh helplessly, only hating that his current strength was as graceful as an ant, if he didn't make trouble for Gu Tingyan, he would already be considered sensible by Lu Ping, so how could he use his current self to rescue Gu Qianyan from the predicament.
……
On the other hand, Feng Jinglan went to the palace early in the morning because he learned about the alchemy of the saint today.
Now that the saint is reviewing the folds, when Feng Jinglan saw his face, it was not more ugly than before, but it was ruddy and healthy, and it looked like the elixir of the jade concubine had a good warming effect on his body.
Feng Jinglan asked An Dao: "Erchen has seen his father. ”
"Get up!" The emperor glanced up at him and said casually: "I heard that in your prince's mansion, the eldest daughter of the Yang family died, right?" ”
"Yes."
The emperor paused for a moment, and then said: "Even the child Gu Liangdi in your prince's mansion had a slippery tire just a short time ago?" ”
Feng Jinglan replied: "Yes! ”
Although I don't know how such a thing reached the emperor's ears, but for the outside world, Feng Jinglan did not tell the truth of the matter, maybe Feng Jinglan only wanted to punish Gu Qianyan, and did not want Gu Tianyan to have an accident.
For Gu Qianyan, Feng Jinglan couldn't tell whether it was hatred or love, and he didn't want Gu Tianyan to have good fruits to eat, but he didn't want Gu Tianyan to die like this.
"Is there any evil in your prince's mansion, this jade concubine has invited a good Taoist, and I can go to your mansion to investigate one or two."
Feng Jinglan looked at the emperor and replied: "Thank you for my father's kindness, my sons and daughters have it, but it is only the intrigue in the prince's mansion, or the wives and concubines of the prince's mansion have not played well with their bodies on weekdays, so that the fetus will easily slip off." ”
"If there is something wrong, you will tell me, and I will naturally solve it for you." After that, the emperor waved his sleeves and replied: "I heard that a few days ago, you have been unable to get along with your fourth brother, is it true, Yu Guifei said that you have long known that the Yang family will fall, but you have never explained to your fourth brother, so that your fourth brother has been attacked by the Yang family and the Chu family, can there be such a thing?" ”
"No, Erchen is not a prophet, how could he have known about the decline of the Yang family from the beginning, if it weren't for the accident between the concubine of the fourth emperor brother and the side concubine in the Erchen Mansion, I'm afraid Erchen still doesn't know what the situation of the Yang family is."
The emperor nodded slightly, and sighed: "Outside, the king's order is not subject to it, by the way, who was the person you handed over to the Chu family to give an explanation?" ”
"No, I just found a reasonable reason for the Chu family, but fortunately they accepted it happily, otherwise Erchen wouldn't know what to do." Feng Jinglan replied cautiously, and from his father's words, he could hear that he was a little dissatisfied with the Chu family's matter against the Yang family this time.
As for the reason, maybe it was the strength of the Chu family in the army that made the emperor feel threatened, or maybe it was the Chu family that broke the stable situation he had maintained with all his might?
The Chu family did not make public what Yang Pinglan did in the prince's mansion, but secretly retaliated frantically against the Yang family, so no matter what Feng Jinglan said now, there is a reason in it, and it will not easily arouse the emperor's suspicion.
And Feng Jinglan also knew that his father and emperor had become more and more unclear over the years, and it seemed that the time limit was approaching, so his complexion was nourished by the elixir, but his body was slowly hollowed out by the elixir.
If you really want to talk about it, Concubine Yu made the emperor obsessed with pills, which is also both beneficial and disadvantageous for Feng Jinglan.
Naturally, there is no need to say much about the drawbacks, the emperor will inevitably trust and rely more on Yu Guifei and others, and they will inevitably play with him in front of the emperor.
The relatively beneficial side for Feng Jinglan and others is that if the emperor thought that he could live forever, in order to ensure the stability of the situation, he should not put forward the idea of replacing the crown prince when he was not completely sure.
In this way, Feng Jinglan is equivalent to a race against time, as long as he is still the crown prince when the emperor dies, then he is the rightful heir of the Great Xuanguo, and Feng Jinghuang's desire to compete for the throne is a great rebellion.
Of course, Feng Jinghuang and the others can also come up with fake edicts, so what Feng Jinglan needs to do most at the moment is to cultivate his own power as much as possible and enhance his strength.
The emperor was still extremely jealous of Feng Jinglan's approach to the Chu family, and said in a deep voice: "Jinglan, you and Jinghuang are brothers, if you secretly fight each other about some things, I will inevitably feel uncomfortable as a father, but seeing you two like this, I am relieved." ”
"Erchen should take good care of the four emperor brothers in the future." Feng Jinglan replied.
From the emperor's mouth, it can be seen that he cares about Feng Jinghuang, and it is also the jade nobleman who often blows the wind in the ears of the saint, if not, with Feng Jinghuang's talent and virtue, how can it be worth the emperor's concern.
Thinking about it like this, Feng Jinglan can't help but admire a woman like Concubine Yu, who is also slowly facing old age and decay, and can still hold His Highness's heart, which is really not a good kind.
"Jinglan, you still go to see your queen mother, I don't see who your queen mother communicates with these days, but she rehearses the Buddha in her bedroom all the year round, if this kind of days continue, I am really worried that your queen mother will be accompanied by the green lantern ancient Buddha for a lifetime."
"Yes, the retainers are retired."
Feng Jinglan slowly stood up and left, the emperor's request was just as Feng Jinglan intended, because of the holy alchemy, Feng Jinglan wanted to go to the queen's side to explore. (To be continued.) )
