Chapter 2: Zhao An's Temptation

Zhao An returned to the palace and didn't see Gu Yunyao, and when he was puzzled, Tu Duxue walked into the main hall in a pink skirt.

"Hey, Gonggong Zhao, why didn't you go to rest after the night shift?"

The girl smiled sweetly and shook the drops of water from her hands as she said to him.

The two small palms are delicate and delicate, soaked in clear water, and the ten fingers are extraordinarily white and eye-catching.

Zhao An's eyes were shocked in an instant, and the expression on his silent cheeks was slightly tense.

I had just met with the "Tu Guard" of Dongchang, and now Zhao Anxin knew that the girl in front of him was not Gu Yunxi at all.

No wonder when I saw her for the first time at that time, I felt a strange sense of alienation in my heart, but the enthusiasm and warmth like seeing relatives could only be clearly felt by the "Tu guards" in Dongchang.

Today's teahouse will be a while, and it can be regarded as solving the mystery that Zhao Anxin has precipitated for a long time!

"Father-in-law Zhao, the slave maid saw that your eyes were swollen and wet, have you ever been sad?"

The girl suddenly took a step forward, her eyes were clear, and she stared at Zhao An's eyes and explored.

Her vision is really tricky!

Knowing Zhenyunxi and mentioning the sad things in the past, the kind man couldn't help but cry for a moment.

"Oh, it's nothing, two days ago, the master had an accident, and our family was in a hurry to see the symptoms of wind and tears. In your spare time, grab a few pairs of gunpowder and eat them. ”

Zhao An wiped the corners of his eyes, and his expression dodged.

The girl blinked, lowered her head slightly, and half of her cheeks sank into a shadow of an inch, her expression complicated and uncertain.

Because he remembered what the little master had told him in the teahouse, for the sake of Gu Yunyao in front of him, he couldn't expose the identity of the fake Yunxi, let alone mention the matter to Gu Yunyao, so as not to backfire, not only would it make her hit again, but the worse situation would be that it would be extraneous and detected by the scheming fake Yunxi.

What Zhao An has to do now is to monitor every move of this fake Yunxi for Leng Qingtang and Dongchang.

Xu noticed that the atmosphere at the scene was a little duller, and the girl pursed her lips and chuckled:

"Nacheng, go back to the earroom and rest. The master went to the Imperial Garden, and will be back in a moment. ”

Zhao An nodded, his eyes drooped, and the cold light faintly reflected from the bottom of his deep eyes, but his voice was euphemistic and full of warmth:

"Xi'er, now that you have come to our Jingyang Palace, it is considered that the master has a wish. You should know that from childhood to adulthood, the master of the three sisters of Gongyuan loves you the most.

Do you remember that when you were nine years old, you hid and played with lanterns during the Lantern Festival, and as a result, you burned most of the kitchen.

The master was afraid that you would be punished, so he was stunned and said that she was responsible for all the crimes for you, but he was beaten by Gu's mother. ”

The girl listened attentively, her eyes flickering. His complexion was sluggish for a moment, and then he stretched out, and smiled brightly:

"Father-in-law Zhao rest assured, Xi'er has always remembered the past, Xi'er knows her sister's good self best, and she won't dare to forget it until the day she dies of old age. In the future, Xi'er will spend her life protecting her sister and repaying her kindness. ”

looked at the girl with wide eyes, and her warm face was always smiling shallowly, without half a wave:

"That's fine, that's fine, you go and do things."

"Okay."

The girl happily agreed, and walked away with a light step.

In an instant, the pigment of his eyes was cold, Zhao An's expression changed as cold as the frozen surface of the lake, his teeth were clenched, and his jade-white cheeks protruded with clear arcs.

What she just said was pure fiction, but she happily accepted it.

Her "Gu Yunxi" is really fake!

β€”β€”

Emperor Jingxiao and Empress Qian rushed to the north side of the imperial garden, and before they approached the Di Ying Pavilion, they saw a crowd of people under a cypress tree.

Father-in-law Zhang's hands shook the dust, and his sharp voice was pulled high:

"The emperor and the queen have arrivedβ€”"

In just a moment of chaos, a group of people formed two neat columns, bowed their heads, and shouted in unison:

"Long live the emperor, long live, long live, long live the queen's mother, thousand years, thousands of years, thousands of years."

Emperor Jingxiao walked at the forefront of the honor guard with his hands in his hands, and his sharp eyes looked at both sides, before he rushed to the bottom of the tree.

The cypress tree is a little old, with a thick trunk about three people hugging each other, and dense branches, but there are few leaves before summer.

The roots of the cypress tree are thick, and a few main tendrils meander an inch out of the loess surface. At the intersection of the root tree and the loess, the view is spectacular:

Tens of thousands of ants are squeezing and crushing each other at the moment, forming a strange pattern.

If you look at it from a certain distance, the pattern of the activity does look like eight separate black characters:

Concubine Yu's Min family should have a son

The pupils dilated suddenly, and the emperor was completely shocked, staring at the wriggling black spots on the ground in a daze, and his mind was blank for a while.

Concubine Yu's miscarriage has already injured her body's pulse, and many doctors in the hospital have determined that she is no longer able to have children.

And the ants gathered here to form words, could it be some kind of omen?

Empress Qian stood beside the emperor and felt embarrassed, her five fingers in her sleeves were clenched into fists, and her eyes were filled with a narrow cold light.

At this time, there was a rumor behind him:

"Your Majesty, Concubine Yu has arrived."

Everyone turned around and saw that the jade chariot had fallen, and the elegant person had plain makeup, a little puzzled and a little frightened, and came in small steps, and bowed to the emperor and queen:

"The concubines have seen the emperor and the queen."

"Yao'er, hurry up, it's overcast, how can you run out of Jingyang Palace again, how can I feel at ease if you are so willful?"

The emperor's soft palm supported the woman's elbow and asked her to straighten up, frowning and nagging a few words.

Gu Yunyao's eyes were as misty as mist, and she folded her hands with grievances on her face:

"The concubine heard in the palace that the imperial garden was descending from the sky and the concubine was involved, and I thought that there were frequent incidents in the harem recently, and the concubine was afraid that she would be implicated again, so she rushed to watch, and it is better to see it than to come out of nowhere."

"That's right," the emperor nodded in agreement, leaning sideways to give up an angle:

"Come and see."

Gu Yunyao frowned and stepped forward, glanced at the ground, suddenly turned around and exclaimed, stumbled on the emperor's chest, and her voice trembled:

"Your Majesty, why is this happening? Could it be that God knew that the concubines could no longer continue the bloodline for the South China clan, so they wanted to condemn the concubines? The concubines are so afraid! ”

"No, no, no......"

The emperor took pity on her, trapped her light body in the crook of her arm, and patiently coaxed:

"Concubine Ai don't have to be afraid, I will send you back first, and I will know everything when I send someone to ask the Ming Guoshi."

Boom, thunder overhead came just in time. The clammy wind carried a heavy layer of water vapor and hit everyone's face.

The emperor said to Empress Qian:

"You let everyone disperse, I will go to Jingyang Palace first."

"Congratulations to the emperor." Queen Qian lowered her eyebrows.

When the honor guard was gone, the woman raised her scarlet eyes, and the hatred in her eyes became more and more gloomy.

The sandalwood curled in the four elephant houses, and the handsome and cold man changed the medicine patch shirtless, slowly closed the fiery red fairy clothes, and his eyebrows were full of disdainful and cold smiles:

"Mediocre people disturb themselves, if there is no external force to intervene in the world, where will the celestial wonders come from!"

Dao Tong stood with his hands down, and said suspiciously:

"If it weren't for Providence, then why would countless ants gather into words?"

Outside the house, there was a thunderstorm, and then the rain sparsely fell.

Yu Xuanji smiled coldly:

"In the past, Chu and Han fought each other, Liu Bang won and Xiang Yu retreated step by step, and when he finally fled to Wujiang, he saw countless ants gathering on the avenue, showing the four words 'Xiang Yu will die'. Xiang Yu thought that this was the will of heaven, so he drew his sword and killed himself in Wujiang.

As everyone knows, that is exactly Liu Bang's military advisor Zhang Liang's trick. He knew that Xiang Yu would go to the Wujiang River if he was defeated, so he sent someone to the river with honey to mention the words first.

The so-called gathering of ants is just attracted by the aroma of honey.

See, now that the rain washes over the loess, it will not leave any trace after it. ”

Dao Tong listened to the mouth and suddenly opened, and after a moment Nuo Nuo spoke:

"Now that the emperor has sent someone to ask about the Imperial Garden, how should the Immortal Chief deal with it?"

The light eyebrows were raised one degree, and the man smiled:

"After the catastrophe of the abortion, the more Concubine Yu lived, the more she understood, and finally understood the magic of taking the initiative. That's it, there is a give-and-take, this time Zuo is just that she wants to compete with the East Palace for the Seven Princes, and the poor way has fulfilled her wish, and it is also beneficial to us and harmless. The moon is empty, and the pen and ink are waiting. ”

……

As soon as Emperor Jingxiao and Gu Yunyao entered the outer garden of Jingyang Palace, the continuous rain line hung down.

The palace maid in a pink skirt ran towards her, holding an oil umbrella:

"The master is back, the slave and maid will take the umbrella for you! You can't get caught in the rain. ”

The shallow voice stopped abruptly, and she saw the middle-aged man in the bright yellow brocade robe beside the woman.

Father-in-law Zhang waved the dust to stop the girl from approaching, and scolded angrily:

"Boldβ€”"

The girl retreated in terror, and a shuddering umbrella fell onto the gravel pavement, rolling out a full arc.

Gu Yunyao was shocked and hurriedly explained:

"Your Majesty, Xi'er is just worried about the concubine's body, not intentionally offending Long Yan."

"Xi'er? It is...... Xi'er who came out of Yongning Palace? ”

Emperor Jingxiao turned his eyes to look at it, and saw that the girl had a beautiful face, her skin was brighter than snow, and her slender figure was standing in the rain and mist, so beautiful that she was like a fairy.

"The emperor is angry, the slave and maid are not intentional......"

The girl muttered with her chin, her delicate body shook slightly, and the stars in her eyes swayed, like panic and naughty.

"I don't blame you......"

The emperor looked at her fixedly, inexplicable.

Not to mention, this pink dress is really beautiful on a young girl who has not yet come out of the cabinet, and only this color can decorate her delicate and weak temperament just right.

In an instant, the emperor bent down to pick up the umbrella for Concubine Yu, and turned his eyes to the girl with a few words:

"Go down, you have a heart."

"Yes."

The girl smiled like a cheerful little swallow running all the way, and her skirt bloomed like a lotus.

Under the soft prompting of Gonggong Zhang, the emperor retracted his gaze and walked into the main hall with Gu Yunyao.

On the side of the corner gate, Zhao An recalled the scene just now, and the expression on his handsome white face was up and down, changing rapidly.

During lunch in Jingyang Palace, a Taoist boy came and sent a letter written by the national teacher to the emperor.

Emperor Jingxiao looked at it carefully, and his brows stretched and fell into the dishes and chopsticks.

"Aifei, you have been in the harem for two years, and you have always behaved modestly, gently and decently. I'm going to leave Lin'er to you to raise, are you willing? ”

Gu Yunyao's expression was slightly stunned for a moment, she got up and knelt on the ground, her voice soft:

"The concubine Xie is sympathetic to the emperor, but the concubine is already a guilty person who failed to open up the branches for the royal family, how can she still be qualified to take on this important responsibility?"

The emperor sat upright and groaned, helped her up and pressed her back on the chair:

"I don't blame you for that. I think your father Min Rui spent half his life guarding Weihai to protect the peace of Dayi's coastal defense, but I failed to take care of his daughter, so it is the South China clan that is responsible for the Min family.

I have asked the national teacher, and it is clearly written on the words, you and Lin'er are the best match, and only you can raise him at the moment, and I am the most at ease. ”

Gu Yunyao lowered her eyes and smiled lightly, her thick and long eyelashes blocked all the aggressiveness at the bottom of her eyes, and replied in a soft voice:

"In this way, it is better for the concubine to be respectful than to obey the order, and the concubine has thanked the emperor for his grace."
