Chapter 50: The Pavilion of Mountains and Rivers

Gu Jiuguan and Zhao Yuanxi chatted late last night, Gu Jiuguan had read some books, and she could more or less talk about her own opinions about the allusions that Zhao Yuanxi said, and even the things in the court. The two chatted happily, soaked in the warm fragrant Pu'er eight times and was tasteless, so they simply served the wine again and continued to talk until late at night, when they fell asleep and rested.

This is the first time Gu Jiuguan has served Zhao Yuanxi to bed, the two of them drank happily, they were both a little drunk, and Zhao Yuanxi also tossed her at night, and when she woke up, it was already noon.

As soon as she opened her eyes, the maid waiting under the bed quickly opened the bed curtain and waited for Gu Jiuguan to wash and change clothes.

Gu Jiuguan asked, "What time is this?" The sun was so strong. ”

The maid Cuizhu said: "The queen mother, it's noon now." ”

Gu Jiuguan hurriedly got out of bed, only to feel sore, and said, "Cuizhu, you are my wife, and you didn't even ask me to get up." The first time I stayed in the Emperor's Palace, I made such a mistake, which is really inappropriate! ”

Cuizhu smiled and said: "It was explained by the Emperor of Yuanxi, saying that it was the hard work of the mother's sleep, so don't ask the mother to get up today, and ask the mother to sleep more and rest more." ”

Gu Jiuguan's face turned red, his ears were also pink, and he said, "Oh, there are so many people, you should be quiet." ”

Cuizhu snickered, helped Gu Jiuguan get dressed, and helped her go to the dresser to comb her hair.

There was a bowl of soup on the dresser, which smelled a little bitter.

Gu Jiuguan put on a disgusted expression and said, "How can there be a bowl of medicine on this dresser?" ”

Cuizhu said: "The emperor and queen mother, this is a decoction that can bless the mother to conceive the prince, as long as the mother sleeps in the future, you will have to drink a bowl." ”

Gu Jiuguan was alert, she still knew some tricks in the palace, and said, "Is this medicine safe?" Did you boil it yourself? ”

Cuizhu said: "Niangniang, rest assured, this medicine is boiled by Ju Xue herself, she is a mother and rest assured." ”

Ju Xue and Cuizhu are both Gu Jiuguan's wedding maids and her most trusted henchmen.

After drinking the decoction, I went to the small kitchen to prepare some delicious pastries and prepare them to be sent to the Shanhe Library.

Shanhe Shuge is the most elegant place in this huge palace, with a unique courtyard design, bamboo forest, small pond, koi, small bridge and flowing water, and a century-old maple tree.

The maid led the way, and Gu Jiuguan followed behind with a food box, and said: "This mountain and river book pavilion is really elegant, and there is such a scenery as a small bridge and flowing water, it is really a change of scenery, seconds." ”

The maid replied: "The Shanhe Book Pavilion is the office area and study room of the emperors of the past dynasties, so it is naturally more elegant and quiet. ”

Gu Jiuguan said, "Why can't my maid enter?" ”

The maid replied: "The Shanhe Book Pavilion is strictly managed, and it contains the most important books and cheats of my country, and it is also where the emperor approves the excerpts, so it is forbidden for unauthorized outsiders to enter." ”

Gu Jiuguan said: "Then why can this palace enter here?" ”

The maid replied: "Niangniang is the emperor, and she can go anywhere in this palace without authorization." ”

Gu Jiuguan was overjoyed, smiled slightly, and was silent.

The maid pushed open the door, turned around and said, "The queen mother, it's here." Emperor Yuanxi was waiting for Niangniang inside. ”

Gu Jiuguan walked in, there were three doors before and after, as well as a long book gallery, and finally went to the depths, which was the place where Zhao Yuanxi usually reviewed and recited, and it was even more elegant here, the fan-shaped window was the first time I saw it, and there were some calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall.

Gu Jiuguan squatted down slightly, saluted, and said, "The king, the concubine has brought you some pastries, how about the king rest for a while?" ”

Zhao Yuanxi put down the brush in his hand, greeted him happily, and helped Gu Jiuguan to sit down.

Zhao Yuanxi said: "It's hard work, your craftsmanship is very fond of this king, let me see what surprises you will give this king?" ”

Gu Jiuguan opened the food box, and a fragrant fragrance came to his face, and said: "Jiuguan prepared honey-stuffed osmanthus cake, almond tofu, and kidney bean paste for the king. ”

Zhao Yuanxi said: "Yes, they are all delicious and affordable." ”

Zhao Yuanxi tasted everything and said, "Yes, sweet but not greasy, Jiuguan has worked hard." He took Gu Jiuguan's hand and rubbed it.

Gu Jiuguan said: "If the king likes it, the concubine is also happy." ”

Zhao Yuanxi said: "This king is still busy, and there will be ministers to meet him in a while, so the snacks will be placed here, and this king will go to you at night." Go back and rest. ”

Gu Jiuguan stood up and saluted, and said, "Then the concubine will go back to the Feng Pavilion, and when the king is done, you must remember to come over." ”

Zhao Yuanxi said: "Go ahead." ”

Gu Jiuguan put away the food box and left.

As soon as he walked outside the door, he saw a female official waiting outside.

Luo Yao clasped her fists and saluted, "The lower officials pay a visit to the emperor and queen." ”

Gu Jiuguan said: "You are a female official?" ”

Luo Yao replied: "The subordinate officer is Luo Yao, the Rulin Lang of the Ministry of War." ”

Gu Jiuguan said: "Ru Linlang's little official character, can he actually come to such an important place as the Mountains and Rivers Library?" ”

The maid on the side explained: "After returning to the emperor's mother, it was Emperor Yuanxi who summoned Lord Luo Yao. ”

Gu Jiuguan felt threatened, now the harem is dominant, and now it is not easy to get through to the end, and he has been favored by Zhao Yuanxi, and now this female official is also handsome, if she becomes a concubine one day, her status is not in danger.

Gu Jiuguan didn't speak, and glanced at Luo Yao with a warning look, Luo Yao looked at him, and quickly lowered his head. Gu Jiuguan left.
