Chapter 33: Two Little Guesses

I haven't seen him for a few years, but the emperor seems to be in his twenties, silver threads appear from the corners of his forehead, and his cheeks are bloated, but the only thing that remains unchanged is the pair of eyes, which are still very wide.

I'm afraid that only Wang Lichuan can say such a rebellious word, Fu Jingyi glanced at him, and Wang Lichuan lowered his head and stopped talking.

"Miss Shen, according to the general's orders, I have prepared a place for you to rest.

Wang Lichuan then turned his eyes to Shen Qiqi's body, and a smile appeared on his face.

"Seventeen is here, I haven't seen you for a long time, I eat and drink well in the General's Mansion, why is my body still so thin?"

His concern is ill-intentioned, and it is difficult to make people feel good.

Seventeen shrunk his neck and turned away from him.

Wang Lichuan's face was distressed.

"Seventeen, you really pierce my heart by ignoring me like this."

Shen Seventeen ignored him, thinking about the affairs of the General's Mansion on the second day, Gu Jinghuai received a holy decree from the emperor.

The eunuch who announced the decree walked into the gate of the general's mansion with high spirits.

"General Gu Jinghuai, brave and good at fighting, proficient in the art of war, is the pillar of the country, now he has reached the age of marriage, I miss you and the princess childhood sweetheart, the two have no guesses, so you are named a concubine, choose a day to get married, Qin."

On the second day, the emperor prepared a palanquin and asked Fubo to follow a few guards to escort him into the palace.

As soon as he entered the palace gate, it was as deep as the sea, and whenever he walked through the majestic palace gate, he still felt a little emotional.

After a few years, the current Ninety-Five Zun doesn't know what happened.

Under the guidance of the eunuch, he walked to the side hall of the Heart Cultivation Palace.

The heavy wooden door is only guarded by a guard, and the sycamore in front of the hall is bleak, and soon the palace people will brush it off, and it will be clean and not cause a trace of dust.

The eunuch stood outside the door and seemed to have been waiting for a long time.

"Veteran, the army is still strong, the emperor has been waiting for a long time, please veteran, the army will follow me in." Su Zhengtian's tone seemed to be flattering, but looking at Gu Zhengxiong's eyes, it was still not very respectful.

Veteran, Jun has always thought that eunuchs are rootless things, and they are not men, even if they are the big eunuchs around the emperor, they cannot escape his contempt.

So he looked down on Su Zhengtian, Su Zhengtian saw that he was old, and he was no longer the general who was dominant, and he didn't take him very seriously.

After the two of them despised each other in front of the hall, Su Zhengtian opened the door for the veteran general Gu and the army.

The veteran, the army walked in with his head held high.

The moment the door was closed, a faint light flashed in Su Zhengtian's eyes, but it was fleeting and difficult to detect.

In the side hall, the light was dim, and the subtle light was cast in through the cracks in the windows, so that the veteran generals and soldiers could barely see the emperor's face.

At this time, the emperor was sitting at his desk, holding a stove in his arms, he had been very cold recently, so he had already used the stove.

Although it seems that the inside of this house is not seeing the light of day, it is very stuffy when the stove is burned.

The veteran general, Jun stood there slightly, beads of sweat on his forehead, but his expression was tenacious, and he still looked ahead.

I haven't seen him for a few years, but the emperor seems to be in his twenties, silver threads appear from the corners of his forehead, and his cheeks are bloated, but the only thing that remains unchanged is the pair of eyes, which are still very wide.

"The old minister has seen the emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live."

The emperor just glanced at him lightly, waved his hand and said, "Senior General Gu, the army doesn't need to be polite, get up quickly." ”

"The minister wrote to the emperor."

"After a few years, veteran Gu, the army has been in good health recently?" Veteran General Gu and Jun nodded respectfully: "The minister thanks the emperor for his concern, and the minister is fine." ”

The emperor's swollen eyes closed slightly, "General Gu is young and promising, commanding the four armies, and his contribution is indispensable, he is really a pillar of the country, a veteran, and the army has a good teaching, and it is really the glory of my Chu country." ”

The veteran general, the army respectfully clenched his fists: "The emperor praises falsely, and the ministers dare not be ashamed." ”

The emperor got up and waved his hand, "Veteran, the army doesn't have to be humble, I appreciate Gu Aiqing a lot, so I can rest assured that the military power will be in his hands, but after many years, there is another thing that makes me very confused, and now I can't figure it out, I still don't know the answer, I hope that the veteran, the army can mention me."

"Veteran, Jun naturally knows that the emperor will not call him into the palace for no reason, presumably there are other things to do.

So he continued to say respectfully: "Weichen must know everything. ”

The Emperor's eyes were fixed on him, not sparing any subtle expression from him, but every word he said next was like a huge stone falling to the ground.

"I ask you, Gu Jinghuai, is it the son of me and Red Sleeves?" In that case, then you should weigh it carefully, I won't embarrass you, you go down first. ”

The old general nodded and bowed, and left the palace, looking closely at his back was a little bent, it seemed that he had become old in an instant, he was old after all, and his body bones were no longer as good as they were back then, after so many ups and downs, wind and candles, he was already exhausted.

The eunuch's words, like thunder, exploded in Gu Jinghuai's ears, his brows were tightly locked, wrinkled into a ravine, kneeling and clasping his hands, but he did not mean to grasp the purpose.

The eunuch looked at him with a smile: "Congratulations to Master Horse, you still don't want to receive the decree?" Gu Jinghuai kowtowed heavily, "The minister is concerned about the safety of the country, and he doesn't dare to get married, and he hopes that the emperor will take back his life." ”

The eunuch narrowed his eyes and said, "General Gu, it is a great honor to give marriage to the princess, do you dare to resist the decree and disrespect?" Gu Jinghuai hugged his hands: "The minister doesn't dare, it's just that he has no intention of marrying, and he hopes that the emperor will take back his will." ”

His attitude was very resolute and did not give in the slightest.

If nothing else, even for Seventeen, he couldn't be a colt.

The eunuch obviously didn't expect this situation in front of him, and he was a little hesitant to hold the holy decree.

At the end, he said: "Since the general's attitude is so resolute, then please ask the general to tell the emperor in person, and the slave will retire first." ”

The eunuch put away the holy decree in his hand and left without looking back, leaving only everyone in the general's mansion in a cold sweat.

Gu Jinghuai got up and stood up, his body was as straight as a pine tree, and his expression was rigorous and unchanged.

"Come here."

Gu Jinghuai waved his hand at Shen Qiqi, who was hiding in the door, and Shen Qiqi immediately walked over obediently.

Gu Jinghuai's eyes were very deep, and he touched Shen Seventeen's head and said.

"Seventeen, I'll send you to the barracks first, send Xiao Deng to continue to take care of you, don't stay in the General's Mansion, I'll let Cui'e send you to the barracks in the afternoon." ”

Shen Qiqi looked confused, and grabbed Gu Jinghuai's sleeve with his hand and didn't let go.

Gu Jinghuai pulled her hand away and said in a serious voice: "You stay in the barracks for two days now, and I will look for you in a few days." ”

Shen Qiqi nodded at this time.

"Okay, I got it."

"Seventeen."

After Gu Jinghuai made some arrangements, he went to the palace alone.

The palace where the emperor is located is in the Changhua Palace, which is the most majestic and solemn palace in the palace.

At the entrance of the hall stood two guarded Praetorian Guards, looking at Gu Jinghuai with a little vigilance.

"General Gu, the emperor is looking at the excerpt at this time, and he can't enter unless he is summoned.

: Gu Jinghuai looked at the open temple door, pursed his lips, and then lifted the hem of his clothes and knelt down towards the temple door.

"Ask the emperor to take back his fate."

The two Praetorian Guards looked at him differently, but neither of them had the intention of reaching out to stop him.

Gu Jinghuai kowtowed again: "Please ask the emperor to take back his order." ”

There was still no response.

Gu Jinghuai said aloud again: "Please ask the emperor to take back his fame." ”

This time there was movement inside the door, and indeed the eunuch next to the emperor walked out.

"General Gu, you better go back, the emperor has made up his mind, don't waste all this energy.

As if he hadn't heard, Gu Jinghuai continued to kowtow to the front of the hall.

"Please ask the emperor to take back his order."

Now the eunuch didn't dare to speak, seeing that the emperor in the house was showing signs of anger, he was really afraid that the scene would not be able to control it.

"What are you two doing in a daze, go and invite the princess."

At this point, maybe the princess has something else to do.

So he sent his little apprentice to the princess.

The princess was drinking tea in the queen's palace, and the palace maid next to her trotted to her side, and whispered in a low voice.

Princess Ann's beautiful face changed instantly, and the teacup in her hand almost fell to the ground.
