"What do you mean......"

"Meaning she's delusional." Guo Zhongting said disdainfully, "Don't forget why Li Qi found her in the first place, isn't it just for the prophecy of the 'Mother of the Son of Heaven'?" I think she took it seriously. ”

Xilingyue is not stupid, thinking back to what Zheng Wanniang did, she helped Li Chengxuan several times for no reason, and she guessed about seven or eight points.

Moreover, the queen mother has moved to Xingqing Palace, and the power of the harem has officially fallen into the hands of Guo Guifei. At this time, Zheng Wanniang suddenly asked to enter the palace and asked the Guo family to take care of her, and the intention was obvious. Besides, she is Li Chengxuan's life-saving benefactor, and the Guo family will not help with this favor.

"Then you still agree to this, won't you cause trouble to Aunt Guifei?" Xiling Yue didn't understand his thoughts.

Guo Zhongting shrugged: "Are you stupid to be our aunt?" There are three thousand fans in the palace, and it is not trivial to place a Zheng Wanniang, I am afraid that she will not even be able to see the face of the saint. ”

Hearing this, Xi Lingyue's mind also cleared up, but she felt uneasy about Zheng Wanniang's choice of this path.

"If she wants to enter the palace, she can enter," Guo Zhongting finally sighed, "After all, she is the benefactor of the prince." Since she has this plan, we can't stop it. The rest is up to her own creation. ”

When he said this, he showed a slightly unusual look, Xilingyue stared at him for a long time, and suddenly said with emotion: "When you left Zhenhai, the prince once said that you have several advantages that no one can match, and now I finally see it." ”

"Oh?" Guo Zhongting immediately came to her side, changed his previous expression, and asked excitedly, "Tell me quickly, tell me what advantages I have!" ”

His expression of "asking for praise" was like two people, and Xilingyue couldn't tell which one was the real Guo Zhongting for a while.

From helping Li Chengxuan interrogate Master Zhen Luo, to preventing the Empress Dowager from speaking, to analyzing Zheng Wanniang's thoughts...... In fact, Guo Zhongting knows everything and can see everything through, but he wants to pretend to be a naïve idiot to cover up his clear mind, maybe this is the real survival rule for the children of the family.

Xilingyue didn't break it after all, the brother and sister looked at each other and smiled, everything was silent.

Half a month later, Zheng Wanniang entered the palace and was arranged to be an errand beside Guo Guifei. On the same day, news came from Zhenhai that there was infighting in Li Qi's camp. A group of generals such as his nephew Pei Xingli, soldiers and horses Zhang Ziliang, Li Fengxian, Tian Shaoqing and other generals opposed Li Qi's rebellion, and after persuasion failed, they openly disowned him and personally arrested their father and son to hand them over to the imperial court.

Li Qi's father and son went from openly raising troops to being defeated and captured, and it was only a short month before and after, and it ended like a joke.

On the first day of the lunar month, Li Qi, Li Hui and a group of Zhenhai traitors were escorted to Chang'an for questioning, and everywhere they passed were spurned and insulted by the people. Xi Lingyue, Guo Zhongting and Xiao Yi couldn't help but go to watch, only to see hundreds of Shence soldiers marching into the city gate with a few prisoner cars, and they had already arrived at Suzaku Street.

But his expression was still very calm, looking left and right, as if he was looking for someone, and there were words in his mouth. Because there were so many people around, the streets were so bustling that no one could hear what he was saying.

"What the hell is he talking about?" Guo Zhongting was very curious.

Xiling Yue naturally couldn't hear clearly, and shook her head.

"He's saying, 'Save me.'" Xiao Yi looked at the direction where the prisoner car was going and slowly answered.

Guo Zhongting said "ah": "Brother Xiao, you still know lip language?" ”

Xiao Yi retracted his gaze, but smiled silently, and only said, "Let's go back." With that, he escorted Xiling Yue out of the crowd, and didn't seem to take this matter to heart.

However, Xilingyue was shocked, even more shocked than Guo Zhongting, because she had known Xiao Yi for eighteen years, and she didn't know that he still knew lip language!

"Yue'er, what are you thinking?" Xiao Yi saw that she was suddenly stunned on the spot, and turned his head to call her.

"Huh? Oh, I'm thinking about it......" Xiling Yue hurriedly came back to her senses, and naturally answered, "I'm thinking, Li Qi was arrested, and I'm afraid that the identities of 'His Highness' and 'Pavilion Master' will be confessed." ”

"yes, this matter is really going to end!" Guo Zhongting obviously thought the same thing and patted her on the shoulder.

But no one expected that three days later, someone in the palace would spread the word, saying that the saint urgently summoned Guo Zhongting and Xiling Yue into the palace.

The two hurriedly packed up, entered the Daming Palace, and came all the way to the side hall of the Zichen Palace. Before he stepped into the palace gate, Guo Zhongting was already in a cold sweat, and whispered in Xiling Yue's ear: "After the Holy Lord ascended the throne, the Zichen Hall has been changed to the main hall of Changshen, and all the officials are here, be careful." ”

The implication is that the saint urgently summoned the two of them into the palace, and it was in the side hall of the Zichen Palace, and the discussion would not be a family matter, or even a harem matter, but a state matter.

Xilingyue raised her spirit at the moment, and walked into the gate of the side hall with Guo Zhongting, and stepped forward to bow down without squinting: "Guo Zhongting (Guo Lingyue) See the saint." ”

Li Chun was obviously in a bad mood, and waved his hand irritably: "No courtesy." ”

The two then sat down under the guidance of the eunuch. Only then did Xi Lingyue dare to look up, and she saw two acquaintances in the opposite position, and she immediately understood the purpose of the Shengshang's summons this time - for the case of Li Qi's rebellion, because Bai Juyi and Pei Xingli were sitting opposite!

Seeing Pei Xingli, who had not been seen for a long time, Xilingyue was very happy, and was about to say hello, but suddenly remembered that this was in front of the emperor, so she had to close her mouth and only gesture slightly to the other party with her eyes.

Pei Xingli's eyes were also scorching, a pair of peach blossom eyes flashed with an inexplicable light, and he looked at her motionlessly.

Such a fiery look...... Xiling Yue suddenly remembered what Jiang Wei had said, and immediately lowered her head, but the roots of her ears turned red in an instant.

The eye contact between the two did not escape the sharp eyes of the Son of Heaven, he narrowed his eyes slightly, and only said, "There is still one person missing." ”

As soon as the words fell, a eunuch hurriedly entered the door and said, "Your Majesty, King Fu has also arrived." ”

Li Chun eagerly raised his hand and motioned for him to bring people in.

Suddenly, Li Chengxuan was wearing a black python robe, with a jasper ring around his waist, from far to near the palace gate. I haven't seen him for nearly two months, but he is still the same tall and long, with eyebrows like ink drawings, eyes like stars, a bridge of the nose like peaks, thin lips like slashes, and a calm demeanor.

It's just that inexplicably, Xilingyue felt his loneliness and tiredness, as if he saw him walking alone in the bleakness of a lifetime, although he was still so elegant.

Li Chengxuan lifted his hem and knelt on the ground: "The younger brother has seen the saint." ”

"Sit down." Li Chun's face was still not good.

Guo Zhongting didn't know that Li Chengxuan was also coming, so he sat on the first seat on the east side, and Xilingyue sat next to him. Seeing someone coming at this moment, he consciously got up and gave way and sat down at the bottom of Xilingyue, Li Chengxuan took the opportunity to sit in Guo Zhongting's original position, next to Xilingyue, but did not look at her.

A faint familiar aroma of ambergris came to her nose, and Xi Lingyue felt a sour nose, and couldn't help but sneak a glance at Li Chengxuan from the corner of her eye. But the other party didn't seem to see her, and blindly looked sideways at the emperor on the Danqi, leaving her with only half an angular thin side face.
