Li Chun naturally couldn't refuse: "It's still the concubine who thinks thoughtfully, so let's settle this matter." ”

He was afraid that Guo Guifei would make things difficult again, so he hurriedly said: "I still have something to do with Qiu Niang, I took people away first, she is still young, and you will teach her slowly in the future." ”

Guo Guifei also accepted it when she saw it, and gave the emperor a step down, Ying Ying leaned over and saluted: "The concubine respectfully sends the saint." ”

Li Chun didn't wipe his wife's face in public, so he coughed lightly, and pretended to be serious and said to Du Qiuniang: "You haven't thanked the concubine for not punishing?" ”

Du Qiuniang pear blossom did as she was told: "Du Qiu respectfully obeys the teachings of the concubine and thanks the concubine for her grace of not punishing." ”

Guo Guifei smiled at the right time: "Go, serve the saint in a good life." ”

The two emperors and concubines left hand in hand. When he was about to leave the Hanxiang Palace, Li Chuncai remembered that Xiling Yue had also followed, and hurriedly glanced at her: "Well, Yue'er, you came just in time, accompany your aunt more." ”

Xilingyue knew that the emperor ordered her to appease Guo Guifei, so she had to accept the order.

"I've made you see the joke." In the side hall of the Hanxiang Palace, Guo Guifei leaned on a gilded ebony beauty couch and said weakly.

"Uncle," Xiling Yue was entangled in her heart, not knowing how to comfort her, "Holy he is just ......"

"There's no one right now, so you might as well call me aunt." Guo Guifei waved her hand, "How can my aunt be as good as my aunt." ”

"Yes, Aunt Guifei," Xiling Yue changed her words from admonishment, "Yue'er just observed that the Holy Lord is not targeting you, just ......"

"Just 'lustful heart'?" Guo Guifei evoked a sarcastic smile.

"Not really," Xiling Yue tried to explain, "The Holy One still respects you very much. ”

"He respects the Guo family, not me." Guo Guifei seemed to have seen through it, and a look of disappointment flashed in her eyes, "You entered the palace this time, but to investigate Ji Meiren's case?" ”

"Uh, this ......" Xilingyue was surprised in her heart, she didn't know why Guo Guifei's news was so well-informed, and she was thinking about whether to admit it or deny it, when she saw Guo Guifei smile again, and that smile was full of insight into the world.

"The saint really wants to cover up, just looking at Du Qiuniang's appearance, who wouldn't have thought of Ji Lianlian?" She lowered her head and fiddled with the Kodan on her nails, "If you think about the Sacred Heart, no one in this harem can match me." ”

"Aunt Guifei, then ...... you" Xiling Yue wanted to ask but didn't dare to ask.

Guo Guifei knew the meaning of her words, and suddenly looked up at her: "I haven't done it, I don't care to use this method!" Just a beauty, if I want to fix her, I can do it without knowing it, why take this risk? ”

"Aunt calms her anger." Xiling Yue suddenly felt relieved. In the past few days, what she is most worried about is that this case will involve Guo Guifei, and now the other party has stated that she believes that Guo Guifei will not lie.

"More than anyone else, I hope to get to the bottom of this case and clear my name." Guo Guifei frowned slightly, and sat up straight from the beauty couch, "You don't know, when Ji Meiren fell off the Qinzheng Building, the saint looked at me...... It's like you're going to kill me! Although he didn't say anything, he always refused to make me the queen for this matter. Guo Guifei's words were uneven.

"After the Holy Lord was not established, it turned out that it was because of this matter?" Xiling Yue finally woke up.

Guo Guifei sneered again: "This is the reason for the open, and the reason for the secret is naturally because my surname is Guo." He is cautious and doesn't want the Guo family to crush him. ”

Yes, since the beginning of the Anshi Rebellion, the Guo family has been prosperous for 50 years, and it is closely related to the Li Tang royal family. And the Holy Lord has only been on the throne for two years, and it is the time when he is in high spirits, and he will not allow such a Mount Tai to weigh on his head.

But which queen of the previous dynasties was not from a famous family and had a prominent family background, and the saint refused to stand up for the queen because of this, and even guarded against the Guo family, is it too much? Xilingyue thought so, but she didn't realize that she had gradually accepted the identity of "Guo Lingyue" and began to consider the problem from the standpoint of the Guo family.

"Don't look at the saint's affectionate appearance, Ji Meiren is dead, and he has to be used by him." Guo Guifei simply got up from the couch and said sarcastically, "Last year, after the courtiers successively wrote to me as the queen, he prevaricated with Ji Meiren's fall from the building, saying that I was not able to manage the harem well and could not convince the public, so I will discuss it later." When Guo Guifei said this, her eyes were already a little crystalline, and she said indignantly, "Since the founding of our dynasty, which emperor has not established a queen?" Only the reign of the first emperor is too short, and he has not yet had time to canonize! The saint doesn't care about my reputation at all, and he lets the harem of the court point fingers! ”

Seeing that she was extremely emotional, Xi Lingyue hurriedly comforted her: "Aunt Guifei is angry, this matter is not as serious as you think, when the Holy Lord mentioned this case to me, he still replied to you very well in his words." ”

"You don't have to comfort me." Guo Guifei turned to look out the window, her eyes flashed with stubbornness, "If you don't give me an explanation for this matter, I will simply jump from the Qinzheng Building to prove my innocence, and I will be a hundred!" ”

"It's not that serious." Xiling Yue persuaded her, but she only thought that she had said something angry, and she didn't take it seriously.

But at that time, Xilingyue didn't expect that this idea had taken root in Guo Guifei's heart and gradually sprouted and grew. Decades later, when Guo Guifei had become the empress dowager of the four dynasties, she finally stood on the Qinzheng Tower and wanted to jump.

And what gave her a fatal blow was the slave maid recommended by Guo Zhongting and Xiling Yue to enter the palace - Zheng Wanniang, a woman from a humble background, and finally became an equal to her.

Of course, that's another story.

At this time, Guo Guifei was still unknown about her fate, she just focused on the frustration and embarrassment in front of her, grabbed Xiling Yue's hand and said: "Yue'er, my aunt's innocence is tied to you, you must investigate this case clearly, and give your aunt justice." ”

"I ...... Yue'er did her best. Xiling Yue felt that the burden on her shoulders was a little heavier.

Guo Guifei poured out the words that had been accumulated in her heart for nearly two years, and she felt a lot better, and then said after relieving her emotions: "Okay, my aunt is fine, you can go and get busy." ”

"There's no hurry. Aunt Guifei, you have to do me a favor. ”

The next day, the Son of Heaven sent someone to inform Xiling Yue that after inquiring about the eunuchs who served the first emperor Wenmo, it had been determined that the first emperor had rewarded Wenfumo to three concubines, and these three concubines had given them to others, four of whom were the concubines of the current Son of Heaven.

They are: Guo Guifei of Hanxiang Palace, Zhang Huafei of Yutang Palace, Xu Wanyi of Greenhouse Palace, and Ji Meiren of Lizheng Palace.

At the same time, the secretary of the Shangyi Bureau also handed over the list of concubines who had received hard yellow paper in the past five years to Xiling Yue, with a total of ten concubines above the third grade, and four of them with Wenfu Mo were among them.
