The night of the palace, the Qinming Palace, is brightly lit.

Emperor Jingxiao secretly summoned Min Guogong and God King Wanzong, and the three of them were around the table to discuss something in detail.

"Haven't heard from Lei Huan yet?"

In front of the dragon case, Emperor Jingxiao sat upright, his slightly yellow and fat square face was like the deep sea, and there was the brilliance of candle flames in his low-hanging eyes, jumping mottled.

Min Guogong and the God King were given seats when they entered the hall, and now that the emperor suddenly asked, Min Rui waved his hand upward:

"Back to the emperor, after the first battle of Weihai that day, Lei Huan's ship was heavily damaged by Ji Yaoguang and sank into the sea. The Chen's wiring has been searching at sea for many days without success, and I am afraid that it will be more auspicious and less auspicious......"

At this point, he lowered his head, and his voice grew quieter.

A few months ago, Dongqingshui had already received a report from Lei Huan, saying that he was ready for everything, and he would personally bring the Tianyanmen heirloom "Kunhuang Island Map" from Yingguo to Dayi, and present the treasure map to Emperor Jingxiao.

Because of his participation in the Baishui Guan incident that year, Min Guogong naturally knew how important the Kunhuang Island map was to Emperor Jingxiao. On the one hand, he sent someone to go to Beijing to report to the emperor first, and on the other hand, he went to sea to meet him at the agreed time, and he didn't want to be stabbed by Ji Yaoguang, a female pirate pretending to be a merchant ship, halfway.

When Min Guogong's voice fell, Emperor Jingxiao's eyebrows were tightly locked, and his five fingers stroked repeatedly on the wall of the teacup carved by the dragon, and after contemplation, he said to himself:

"That island map hides a mystery, indicating the location of the Kunhuang Underground Palace. Only by entering the underground palace can I retrieve my half of the jade seal. For many years, I finally bought Lei Huan to use, and he was ambushed when he didn't want to cross the sea to donate the map! It's just one step away...... It's just that he really died in the sea, but it's a pity that the picture, what if it falls into the hands of others?! ”

Seeing this, the god king Wanzong bowed and comforted:

"The emperor doesn't have to worry, just the battle of Weihai that Ji Yaoguang lost a lot, and this time he died for life. I'm afraid that Lei Huan will be lucky enough to escape this catastrophe, and he will be persecuted along the way to Beijing. Once he learned that Lei Huan was safe and sound, he would immediately ensure that he would enter the capital and present the picture to the emperor. ”

Emperor Jingxiao nodded silently, then gritted his teeth, and looked directly at the dragon case with a pair of cloudy eyes, and his eyes were poisonous:

"An He is really idle, and marrying Xiyi far away has to get involved in the affairs of the Dayi royal family. If it weren't for her secret assistance for many years, how could Tianyanmen have the strength to make an enemy of me and hide the secret of the jade seal in the Kunhuang Underground Palace? If you don't remember that she is the side concubine of King Udan Soro, I can't wait to kill her! ”

Speaking of being extremely angry, the emperor slammed his fist on the table.

"The emperor is angry."

The two important ministers got up at the same time, and were about to bow down when the emperor waved his hand to stop them, and said with a sullen expression:

"Alright, don't kneel."

The two sat down again, and Min Rui's fox eyes narrowed:

"I heard that someone placed a leather figure in Ouchi late at night, and his facial features and body shape are like the first emperor, can there be progress in this case now?"

Wan Zong snorted coldly: "This case has long been handed over to the Governor of Dongchang for trial, and he has been investigated for half a year and still has no eyebrows. ”

Min Rui's expression was frightened, and his gaze changed to the emperor:

"If you can do this in such a heavily guarded palace, I'm afraid that there is also an internal response in the palace."

Emperor Jingxiao's eyes suddenly looked blank, and a deep furrow erected between his slightly sparse eyebrows:

"At that time, the admiral of Dongchang took many people inside and outside the palace, and most of their lives were broken in Zhao Prison, and the clues were broken. I often think that person deliberately made the matter of the former emperor, could it be that he also knew the inside story of the Kunhuang Island map? ”

Wan Zong pinched his beard with his hand, his blazing eyes fell into the void, and after thinking for a moment, he suddenly spoke:

"If you know, it's best, as long as Lei Huan comes to Beijing alive, the old minister has a plan, which can lead that person to come out of the palace by himself......"

……

Outside the Qinming Palace, the father-in-law stood under the corridor with his hands folded, only a finger away from the translucent window lattice, and he could hear the conversation inside clearly.

And he always lowered his eyebrows and pleasing his eyes, his back was slightly lumped, and there was not much expression on his white and fat face, as if he were a wood carving, without thought and life.

……

The night was silent, and a few partridges suddenly sounded outside the high walls of the Smoke Pavilion of the harem.

At this time, how can there be partridges in the palace?

However, for Gu Yunjin, there was nothing unusual about this unusual bird call in the middle of the night.

Just after the partridge bird cried three times, each time three times, Gu Yunjin wore a moon-white plain cotton cloak, led the palace maid Caiyue and the chamberlain Xiao Maozi out of the main hall, and lit all the way to the west side of the courtyard under the wall.

"Godfather......

Gu Yunjin leaned on her back and whispered softly in her voice.

There was no response on the other side of the red wall, only the movement of the Lingling, and a dark shadow flew up the wall and followed a hemp rope. On the other side of the rope was a basket with delicious and delicate dishes.

After Gu Yunjin was punished and grounded by the emperor by someone on the shore of Koi Lake, she was trapped in the Weiyan Pavilion like a walking corpse all day long, except for Caiyue and Xiao Maozi waiting around her, all the other palace people were evacuated from the palace, and her food and clothing were also greatly reduced compared with before. Minglan remembered the old feelings, and every five days, he sent someone to send Gu Yunjin some food, gold, silver, fine and soft things in this form.

At this time, the three masters and servants in the courtyard saw the basket coming down, but no one dared to step forward to get it, because the person squatting on the wall was not Xiao Zhangzi they knew, but Kagura Hou Manri.

What's going on?

Gu Yunjin stared blankly at the wall, thinking that in the past, godfathers would send their cronies Xiao Zhangzi to deliver things. It's late at night, why is Wanli still in the palace?

Wan Li was wearing a dark red robe tonight, and the hookah-silk flowers were faintly shining under the cold moon. The three wings on his head are far away from the silver crown, and he is only tied with a slender crimson silk scarf at the top of the round bun, like a handsome and elegant literati son.

Curled up on the high wall and bowed his head, Wan Li stared directly at Gu Yunjin's delicate face like a flower, and inadvertently hooked the corners of his mouth, releasing a very evil laughing arc.

"Little Lord Jin, aren't you hungry?"

Tonight he entered the palace with his father, and saw that his father had been discussing with the emperor and Min Guogong behind closed doors for a long time, and he was really bored waiting outside the palace alone, so he walked to the harem.

Who guarded the door didn't know that the person who came was the younger brother of the imperial concubine, and he had something to see Wan Guifei, but no one dared to stop him.

When Wanli walked not long on the palace road, he met two little eunuchs, and after asking, he realized that it was the person sent by Minglan to send food and drink to Gu Yunjin.

Knowing that the beauty fell out of favor, Wan Li had evil thoughts for a while, so he followed the inner servant to the west side of the outer wall of the Weiyan Pavilion.

Seeing Gu Yunjin look at him in surprise at the moment, he refused to come forward to pick up the basket, Wan Li pursed his crimson lips slightly, with a somewhat ambiguous complexion, staring at Gu Yunjin intently while keeping his hands on the other, inch by inch to remove the hemp rope, and the food basket turned over and crossed the red wall.

The basket was stuffed to Caiyue, and Wan Li's squinting eyes walked up and down Gu Yunjin's body, and his voice was low and tactful between the openings, quite joyful:

"Little Lord Jin, I haven't seen you for many days, do you still remember Benhou?"

Gu Yunjin's heart tightened, and she couldn't help biting her lower lip. Looking at each other silently, she could completely intercept his thoughts from Wan Li's undulating exaggerated tone and aggressive eyes.

Taking a step back, Gu Yunjin crossed his pale ten fingers and clasped them together fiercely.

Wan Li ignored the presence of his subordinates, and approached step by step:

"Little Master Jin is talented and bright-looking, but he has been so neglected, I think my brother-in-law really doesn't know how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade. Now in winter, Ben Hou is always thinking that the little master can eat and dress warmly, and he is indeed at ease, so he came here to visit one or two. ”

Gu Yunjin bowed slightly, her eyes were bright, and she didn't dare to raise her eyes easily, and met the two unobstructed hot eyes of Wanli. In a panic and panting, the pair of upper bodies that were still tall and full under several layers of clothes were rising and falling rapidly.

Wan Li chased the dementor and smiled: "I advise the little master, the flowers can be broken and must be broken......"

On the one hand, he hated Shen Shen extremely much, and finally couldn't bear the loneliness of the deep palace, and he was extremely eager to sink, even if he knew that the man in front of him already had a family, he was only hypocritical to her at this time.

But Gu Yunjin has been lonely for too long, and the sixteen-year-old flower is about to wither before it blooms, how can she be willing?

Silence narrowed her beautiful eyes, Gu Yunjin's slightly lowered face suddenly turned serious, and her white and tender little hand stretched out and grabbed Wanli's big hand directly.

Raise your eyes again, your face is like a peach blossom, a hundred charms:

"Thank you Lord Hou for your compassion, the concubine's palace is boiling the aged peach blossom brew, I wonder if the Hou Ye is willing to enter the warm pavilion with the concubine to taste?"

Wan Li's eagle eyes lit up, as if he was ecstatic, nodded again and again, and walked into the main hall hand in hand with Gu Yunjin.

——

An autumn dew and a cold, time flies, the first day has arrived in a blink of an eye, the front is calm, and the harem is also happy.

According to the usual practice, every first day in the palace, the concubines will get together to cut window flowers, paint colorful banners, tie gold silk red velvet flowers in their hands, and talk and laugh all morning.

In the past few years, the queen was sick and quiet, and the concubines went to Kunning Palace in the early morning of the first day to greet her, and then went to Yongning Palace for the festival.

A month ago, the emperor annoyed the imperial concubine because of Bai Quan's matter, and she also had a sexual disturbance, and then closed her door and ignored everything in the outside world.

Queen Qian simply summoned the concubines to Kunning Palace to enjoy this year's Yuan Day Festival with her.

Seeing that the sisters got along well and the knotted lanterns of the velvet flowers were busy, Queen Qian was also pleased.

Concubine Xu's calligraphy has always been top-notch among the concubines, and at this moment she is holding a pen and waving her wrist to write couplets on the red paper sprinkled with gold.

This year's Chinese New Year's Eve came very early, and after half a month, these window flower couplets and other mascots would be useful.

Gu Yunyao felt tired after cutting a pair of magpie branches on the side of the long case, put down the scissors and raised her hand to beat her soft shoulder.

When the chief Songqin saw it, he hurriedly served a bowl of hot rice balls to the master.

Gu Yunyao smiled, pinched the spoon and scooped up a ball, brought it to his mouth and carefully blew it cold, before he bit it with his teeth, and frowned slightly.

Barely taking a second bite, she was caught off guard by the fact that her stomach was tumbling violently, she retched and almost spilled the porcelain bowl in her hand.

The concubines stopped what they were doing and cast surprised glances at her.

"Yu Zhaoyi, are you not in good health?"

Empress Qian noticed it, leaned over slightly from the phoenix chair, and asked with concern.

"Sister, what's wrong?"

Concubine Xu dropped the brush, approached lightly, and looked at Songqin rubbing her shoulders for the master, and her surprised complexion gradually turned to joy:

"Isn't my sister happy?"

In a word, the temple suddenly fell into an endless silence.

Gu Yunyao seemed to have been hit on the head and was stunned on the rose chair. Queen Qian suddenly realized, and then pushed and shoved again and again, urging in a trembling voice:

"Hurry, go, pass on the imperial doctor to take the pulse carefully for Yu Zhaoyi!"

Su Tong nodded with joy on his face, and should trot out of the hall.

Within half an hour, Imperial Physician Jiang entered the main hall of Kunning Palace with the medicine box on his shoulder, and a corner of the long book case was vacated, and he immediately checked Gu Yunyao's pulse.

Sure enough, Gu Yunyao is now two months pregnant, and the fetus is stable and stable. After saying goodbye to the queen and Gu Yunyao, Imperial Physician Jiang prescribed a prescription for fetal recreation, and then went back to the imperial pharmacy to decoct the medicine.

Queen Qian was so happy that she left her concubines alone for a while and went to the Buddhist hall in the side hall to offer incense.

The concubines in the main hall had different expressions, some of them sincerely blessed Gu Yunyao, and some people watched coldly, secretly gritting their teeth and holding grudges.

Gu Yunxi stood behind Concubine Xu, looking at Gu Yunyao's dignified and gorgeous posture, and was sincerely happy for her.

After two years in the palace, the eldest sister finally came out.

Everyone in the palace knows that she is now the daughter of Min Guogong, and her mother's family has a prominent status. Once a dragonborn is born, the emperor will also raise her position.

Thinking that she had annoyed the emperor for the matter of recognizing her relatives, she was pregnant at this time, and the emperor should change his mind and accept her again.

After a while, the concubines couldn't wait for the queen to come back, so they all had no intention of doing anything else, so they got up and said hello to Su Tong, and left Kunning Palace and went back.

In the outer garden, Concubine Xu personally sent Gu Yunyao to the sedan chair.

Seeing that her complexion was depressed and depressed, how could she have half the joy of becoming a mother, Concubine Xu stepped forward to hold her hand, looked at her habitually, and comforted her carefully:

"You, just take care of the fetus from now on. Once Lin'er is born, you will serve the emperor wholeheartedly, don't think about it anymore. ”

Gu Yunyao nodded sullenly, with a bit of loneliness and helplessness, and carried herself away from the sedan chair.
