The Taoist of the national teacher Yu Xuanji is located in the back wing of the Qianfu Palace where Emperor Xiao lived, and a place in the imperial garden.

500 steps through the Qianfu Palace, enter the southeast corner of the Imperial Garden, walk 100 meters, you can see a tower building rising from the ground.

This building has three floors, and the structures are all made of high-grade gold bricks, with nanmu as columns. The outer layer of the building is wrapped in green bamboo rows, and the roof is built with five-color glazed tiles.

From a distance, under the long red wall, surrounded by green trees and flowers, there are lush green grass buildings looming. In the faint morning light and twilight, the beautifully decorated tower-shaped spires are all glittering, and they do not lose the solemn and magnificent royal momentum in the elegant and quiet.

In front of the main hall on the first floor of the Daolu, the cedar plaque is hung high, and the three solemn red gold characters of "Four Elephant Lu" are written on it, which is eye-catching.

The doorposts on both sides are carved with Taoist gods and birds with floral patterns, which are magnificent. Go into the building, you can see all kinds of prayer flags and gods, tower incense runes, all kinds of things.

Emperor Xiao took Yun Yao's hand and entered the Daolu, went up to the second floor with a familiar car, and came to a room.

Next to the red sandalwood carving case, a few wisps of green smoke curl in the bronze three-legged toad furnace, and the room is full of ethereal fragrance.

On the southeast side, there is a golden silk nan square offering table that is more conspicuous, and a few strings of pink and purple two-color inlaid with gold-edged satin lotus wind flags are hung on it.

The person enshrined on the offering is not a statue or a rank, but a golden two-eared round tripod, about two feet high. The tripod cover is the yin and yang gossip inverted, the tripod wall is thick and smooth, the hundred blessing pattern is carved on it, and it is inlaid with clams, lapis and gold.

Around the golden tripod, according to the feng shui direction, the bronze lotus incense burner, the golden bowl, the wooden fish, the golden gourd and the beeswax bracelet are placed in turn.

On the south side, there is a four-sided group of clouds and stone eight immortal tables, and a pair of four-legged round chairs.

Next to it is a few cases, lying on the paulownia wood yaoqin. There are calligraphy and paintings hanging on the snow-white wall behind the piano case, and the first vermilion seal is from the hand of Emperor Xiao.

There is a small room on the north side, which is separated from the outer room by a goose-yellow gossip picture curtain, which should be the living room of the owner of this house.

When Emperor Xiao came in, he meditated cross-legged on the oval brocade silk futon, and inhaled a few deep breaths of the rich aroma of sinking water in meditation, so that his impetuous and depressed mood was relieved.

The first time Gu Yunyao came to the Dao Mansion of the National Teacher of the Dynasty, his vision was unfamiliar everywhere.

Due to the number of courtesies, she hurriedly glanced at the interior furnishings, and she didn't dare to look at it at random. obediently put his hands between his sleeves, and stood beside the emperor.

Yu Xuanji instructed Dao Tong to present a Zen chair to Yu Zhaoyi, and put the hot tea on the table.

After meditating for a moment, Emperor Xiao did not lift his eyelids, and asked in a lazy voice out of thin air:

"Xuanji, have I prepared my golden pill?"

Yu Xuanji was standing with his hands down at the moment, next to a golden silk nanduo lattice cabinet on the west wall. The young facial features are surprisingly calm, the eyes are constricted, and the filial piety emperor who is concentrating on meditation on the futon has deep eyes, and the overlapping and overlapping are all complicated.

Hearing the emperor's sudden question, Yu Xuanji's expression changed slightly, like a fallen leaf floating on the water, the ripples were faint, and it was so small that it was not easy to be noticed.

"The emperor is at ease, and the poor road will be prepared immediately."

The mellow and gentle voice is sprinkled like jade, and the big red fairy clothes are like fire clouds fluttering. With a turn of figure, Yu Xuanji turned his back to Emperor Xiao and Gu Yunyao, and took out a square brocade box from the upper left drawer of the locker.

The slender fingers gently lifted the bone buckle, carefully lifted the lid of the box, took one of the turmeric wax pills inside, and secretly incorporated it into the palm of the hand.

Junyi's face changed slightly in the silence, as if it was covered by a dark shadow, and it was unruly, revealing an instantaneous hideousness.

I haven't forgotten the Lord's instructions at that time, and before the time comes, this medicine must not be used!

However, what else is more at stake than his life at this time?

Yu Xuanji's five fingers clenched the wax pill tightly, and his arm trembled slightly. Quietly squinting, there was a flash of gloomy sharp eyes.

Over there, as soon as Emperor Xiao opened his eyes, Gu Yunyao beside him bent his knees and knelt to the ground.

Emperor Xiao was stunned for a moment, and asked puzzledly:

"What does this mean, concubine?"

Reached

Help her, but she can't afford it, her beautiful eyes are red, tears flowed, and she said sadly:

"Your Majesty, today's Spring Banquet is from the Youzhu Tribute Courtyard, and the concubines have entered the palace from the Tribute Courtyard, so they are uneasy in their hearts, and they are still ...... in fear."

Yu Xuanji watched Gu Yunyao's performance, and secretly praised it in his heart.

is also an informant inserted by the commander of Dongchang next to the emperor, Gu Yunyao doesn't know Yu Xuanji, but Yu Xuanji knows Gu Yunyao's identity!

Emperor Xiao stared at Gu Yunyao's poignant, and his heart softened. Seeing that she refused to stand up, he said, "Concubine, how about helping me up?" ”

Gu Yunyao was really obedient, holding her hands together, and her slender ten fingers carried the fragrance of faint orchids, which seemed to be lingering and infinitely soft, and in an instant, she sank into the two nostrils of Emperor Xiao, firmly holding the emperor's heart.

As soon as he stood up from the futon, as soon as his arm was retracted, Gu Yunyao took advantage of the situation to lean over, and his delicate body fell into the emperor's arms at once.

And she seemed to be hidden in her heart with infinite thoughts, her body trembled, biting her lower lip slightly, and covering a layer of gurgling weakness on the peach blossom surface.

She is already good-looking, I see pity, her cheeks are as clear as begonia dew, and her complexion is as moist as the sky is flowing. Now he deliberately pretended to be very aggrieved, raised his beautiful eyebrows, and puffed up the slightest trace of sadness, and Emperor Xiao's heart suddenly melted.

"Your Majesty, the concubines have been lonely since childhood, grew up with their sisters in the Tribute Courtyard, and regard the Tribute Courtyard as their own home. Now by the emperor's favor, he was named Zhaoyi by his side, and the concubines felt the grace of the king. Seeing this incident in the Gongyuan, the concubine's heart was full of anxiety, and she was terrified for a while. ”

Gu Yunyao gently pillowed on Emperor Xiao's chest and poured out eloquently.

At the end of the words, there was another "duh" sobbing, crying so that his shoulders shrugged, and the tassels on the hairpins on the temples swayed gently with the rhythm of this temptation, and the streamer was colorful.

"Hey, it doesn't have to be like this. I didn't think about the palace banquet assassination, you would be so careful. ”

Emperor Xiao pulled her to the table, sat down with both of them, and comforted her carefully:

"Ai Concubine is relieved, I haven't reached the time when my old eyes are dizzy, my ears are blind, and my heart is blind. The assassination had nothing to do with Leng Qingtang and the Gongyuan...... More irrelevant. ”

Gu Yunyao was stunned and stopped screaming, her wet and beautiful eyes widened, and there was a glittering tear in her bright eyes. The beauty is delicate, and every move is all provocative.

Emperor Xiao recalled all the things at the banquet in the Fangcai Palace, and after a deep sigh, he continued:

"Do you think I don't know who Leng Qingtang is? He has been the commander of Dongchang for eleven years, and he is meticulous, even if he really wants to do something unfavorable to me, he will definitely use the dead soldiers who are loyal to him.

Think about it, how can a dead man who is faithful to the Lord betray the Lord before he dies? This is clearly an intentional planting, the assassination of me is fake, and the removal of the commander of Dongchang by my hand is their goal. ”

Gu Yunyao's tightly mentioned heart suddenly relaxed. It seems that this emperor has not yet reached the point of being completely mediocre and biased in listening and believing.

Gu Yunyaoyu stroked her chest with her hand, breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the emperor and said sourly:

"The concubine thought that you would go out of the tribute court because of the matter, and you would have some nostalgia for the concubine, and since then you have snubbed the concubine. You were just in the Baohe Palace, and you were beating and killing, and you were about to scare your concubines to death. ”

Emperor Xiao patted her hand as if soothingly, and then his face tensed, his anger rose one after another, and he complained and said:

"I was really angry at that time, angry at the person who those people wanted to deal with, but it was him Leng Qingtang!"

Gu Yunyao's beautiful eyes flipped over, and she had already heard too many meanings from the emperor's sneering words.

Holding hot tea to the emperor, Gu Yunyao cautiously talked to him:

"Your Majesty, the concubines also feel that the palace banquet is incredible. It has been nearly two months since the commander of Dongchang was ordered to go out of Beijing and inspect the white disaster in the six counties of Jiang'an.

Assassination is no small matter, and it always requires careful planning. If it was indeed done by Dongchang, Leng Qingtang had just returned to Beijing, where did he have the time to deploy?

In addition, the concubine was puzzled by the Assassin's words before he took his own shot. According to the concubines, it was indeed the initiator who deliberately planted the false accusation, using the mouth of the assassin to preemptively lead the people present into believing that the mastermind was the commander of Dongchang, and then the assassin

Self-determination, death without proof. ”

Seeing Emperor Xiao nodding his head with his eyes slightly closed, Gu Yunyao put on a face that was not confused:

"Your Majesty, since you know that the Admiral of Dongchang has been wronged, you still want to put him in the prison and behead him on a certain day?"

"When did I say I was going to kill him?"

Emperor Xiao raised his eyes, raised his eyebrows quite playfully, and said with a smile:

"I'm just using this to kill Leng Qingtang's arrogance! Jiang An inspected, he hid too much from me! As soon as he entered Fengyuan, he first killed the garrison governor, and was pestered by the imperial concubine every day some time ago! Entering the tomb, two fires were led to the Taishou Mansion and the official post. Qi Ling's death is unclear, and Leng Qingtang's recital is also unclear! Hit him, that's admonishing him! ”

The more Emperor Xiao spoke, the more excited he became, and he took a sip of tea before putting down the teacup and continued:

"I know that the East Factory has become bigger and bigger over the years, and Leng Qingtang has offended many officials. They fight, and I let them fight, and the court is full of stagnant water, which is not good for me. But if you want to borrow a knife to kill people, let me be this razor, and I won't let those people get their way! ”

Gu Yunyao secretly rejoiced. Leng Qingtang is fine, and his sister Yunxi is fine.

No jokes. In order to strengthen Emperor Xiao's determination, she once again tried to ask:

"Then the Admiral of Dongchang, you really won't kill you?"

"Let's stay in the prison for a few days! He is in prison for one day, and the government and the opposition can live in peace for one day! Fortunately, Concubine Xu and the prince are safe today, otherwise I would have let him stay in prison for the rest of his life! ”

"It's good if you don't kill, it's good if you don't kill. He once supervised the tribute court, but he was really killed, and the concubines were worried. I am most afraid that the harem will be mixed with mouths, and I will secretly point to my back, so that the concubines will be difficult to accommodate anymore. ”

"I have said a lot to you, so don't think about it, concubine...... Xuanji, you haven't prepared that golden pill yet? ”

Only then did Emperor Xiao remember the matter of the pill.

"Just ......"

Yu Xuanji hid his dark face, hid the wax pill in his palm into the placket, turned to the confession, poured out a golden pill from the golden gourd above, put it in the jade saucer and turned around with a smile:

"Seeing that the emperor and his mother are in love, like glue, and it is inconvenient to disturb the poor road, it is really not to stand, nor is it to hide, it is uncomfortable."

"Hehe, you......"

Seeing Emperor Xiao take the golden pill with a pious expression, the corners of Yu Xuanji's mouth twitched, as if he was sneering with disdain.

Even if you take drugs, you haven't spoiled your brain. Now the Admiral of Dongchang wants to oppose you, it's as easy as a snap! He didn't rebel, he was just waiting for the opportunity, waiting for the day when that incident would be revealed

His eyes flickered, and he turned to Gu Yunyao. Yu Xuanji secretly gave birth to a hint of admiration.

There is no doubt that although she looks gentle and delicate on the outside, her mind belongs to the type of smart and wise. A female streamer, who can think of striking while the iron is hot, takes advantage of this time to make a move to retreat as a defense, and overcomes rigidity with softness, which easily dissolves the anger of Emperor Xiao, and confirms the emperor's decision not to kill the governor of Dongchang, which is really courageous and strategic, and extremely commendable.

Poor Dao will take action to help your clever plan

Not long after Emperor Xiao took the pill, he felt hot and dry in his body, and there was always an unbearable strangeness in his heart.

He didn't know that the golden pill that Yu Xuanji gave him just now was a special pill with a small amount of enchanting medicine, so the five ridges and six beasts dragged Gu Yunyao straight to Xiao Yexuan, Luo Xiangnei tossed and turned, and rested several times.

I slept for two more hours, and it was getting bright.

Before going to the court, Emperor Xiao comforted Gu Yunyao again, swore an oath, and then set off to drive the Qinming Hall with satisfaction.

PS: I've been too busy lately to visit you on time, sorry. If you have time, go to your house!
