In the same palace room, after a while, it became a little different. The wet footprints on the ground gradually dried up and faded, and the steaming bath water was no longer steamy; The most different thing is that Fu Jinzhan was originally in high spirits, but now he looks very ashamed.

She got dressed and muttered, "How should I face her......" and suddenly turned around: "Do you have a way to appease the second sister?" ”

"It's not hard to appease her." Guo Shao said, "The difficult thing is how to convince yourself. ”

Fu Jinzhan listened, his eyes wandered on Guo Shao's face.

Guo Shao was wearing socks and boots, his hands were fast and steady, and he said without raising his head: "I have a subordinate named Zuo You, who saw that I treated the people of Shu well, and once called me a saint...... Later, I thought about it, none of us can be saints, no matter what we do, a large group of people live a life of unearned food and clothing, and they can't change the nature of plundering and exploiting most people in disguise. But I still restrain the soldiers to prohibit burning, killing, looting, and plundering, this is not hypocrisy, let alone fame, but when I want to rob and plunder the world, it is a little more humane. ”

Guo Shao muttered: "People can't be so noble...... Trying to be as good to everyone is just cheating. ”

"Are you convincing yourself?" Fu Jinzhan said quietly, she glanced at Guo Shao and said, "You go first, and when you go out, see if there is anyone around." ”

…… Guo Shao first followed the road to the palace where the three of them had sat just now and took a look, but there was no one and walked out. Finally, Fu Ermei was found among the stone paths in a garden. When Second Sister Fu heard the footsteps, she turned her head to look at it, and a very reluctant smile appeared on her face: "Husband, have you finished washing?" ”

Guo Shao quickened his pace and chased after him, and the two walked in silence for a while.

Second Sister Fu finally spoke: "Every time my husband goes on an expedition, I stay in the palace. This is the Imperial Garden, and there is a big palace called Wanfu Palace in the west, do you know what it does? ”

"I don't know." Guo Shaodao.

Second Sister Fu said quietly: "Taizu and the concubines of the first emperor all live there, and there are some old palace maids. They were not allowed to go out, but they were only allowed to stay in the Palace of Blessings. ”

Guo Shao was silent.

Second Sister Fu's bright-eyed and bright-toothed face rarely showed such a depressed mood, and she usually didn't think about the things that made her unpleasant. The two talked without saying a word, Guo Shao didn't say anything meaningful, he just listened patiently and seriously felt the second sister's thoughts.

The husband said that it was because of the eldest sister's trust that the court could be stable...... In fact, during the Lantern Festival that year, I didn't see you all the same result, you had already arranged it, my father wanted to let the Fu family marry the general of the forbidden army, and my sister arranged everything single-handedly. Second Sister Fu turned her head and said, "The lights are dim...... I suddenly remembered what my husband said, you said that in order to have the opportunity to stand in front of me, you have traveled thousands of mountains and rivers. ”

Guo Shao said: "If Wanfu Palace doesn't have a high wall, will the second sister regret that meeting?" ”

Second Sister Fu was stunned, pondered Guo Shao's words for a while, shook her head with a smile and said: "No, even if it's just a flower in the moon and water in the mirror, even if it's just a shadow play, let me go through it again, I will walk the same road, and I may be impatient to look forward to the arrival of the Lantern Festival that year." Does my husband know how I got over the past 20 years? ”

Guo Shao said honestly: "It should be better than most people in the world." ”

Second Sister Fu said pitifully: "No, because I didn't know that my husband was in this world at that time, so I didn't feel tormented and boring." ”

"Second sister...... In the bathroom just now, there was a man behind the curtains. Guo Shao said in a deep voice.

Second Sister Fu hurriedly said, "I know, it's a palace maid." My husband is right, it's too unruly for you to do that in the palace......"

"It's the Queen Mother." Guo Shaodao.

Fu Ermei covered Guo Shao's mouth with one hand and her ears with the other, but unfortunately it was too late, Guo Shao only said three words and immediately spit it out.

Her body went limp, she sighed faintly, and stood there silently. Guo Shao said again: "Before the Lantern Festival that year, your sister was still the queen; Before discussing the marriage with the Fu family, I was the commander of the forbidden army. The second sister thinks that how can a commander meet the queen at that time? ”

Fu Ermei listened and groaned: "Queen...... I'm afraid I can't go to court. How did you meet the eldest sister? ”

Guo Shao said: "Don't talk about the queen, even if your sister is the queen mother now, can you see her in command?" Even if you can see it during the Great Dynasty, it is in the curtain, and you can't even see what she looks like. ”

"That's really the ......," Second Sister Fu pondered with her head down.

Guo Shao said again: "When the first emperor was in power, let alone any personal affairs, I didn't want to die, and the queen wanted to die." He continued, "The queen has always been in the palace, ordinary people can't see her at all, and the only time I saw her was when the Gaoping Battle squad returned to the court, and she went to Chenqiaoyi to meet the army. At that time, the people who went to face the saint stood far away, and they didn't even dare to raise their heads, and I was still a top ten general at that time, waiting for the peak to ask for a good promotion. ”

Second Sister Fu suddenly said: "Before my husband married me, I didn't ...... my sister."

"How is that possible? Messing around with your head, it's not like that, there are so many people in the Fu family, what kind of mind does your sister have, the second sister knows best. Guo Shao said, "I don't even know what she looks like." ”

Second Sister Fu paced a few steps, and then said, "My husband has been a guard in the Fu family......"

Guo Shaodao: "At that time, I was only thirteen or fourteen years old, and I didn't seem to have seen the Fu family's lady, maybe I did, anyway, now I really can't remember what she looked like at that time; And the difference in identity is so big, I can't even say a word, let alone have any contacts. The second sister thinks that I am a person who can remember me for ten years when I see people and have beautiful parents? ”

Second Sister Fu said: "It turns out that before my husband married me, he hadn't even seen what the eldest sister looked like?" ”

"I haven't seen it clearly." Guo Shao replied quietly.

He gently put his hand on the back of Fu Ermei's hand, she didn't move, he gently held her warm and slender soft barley, and said softly, "The high wall of Wanfu Palace is not only for palace maids, nor is it only for second sisters...... Why isn't your sister within the walls? ”

Second Sister Fu didn't say a word.

Guo Shao turned his head and whispered in her ear: "Don't you think that the eldest sister is very similar to the concubine of Wanfu Palace?" The difference is that her walls are a little wider and extend to the entire imperial city; But can she go out, have you ever seen the queen mother who can remarry...... The eldest sister is only twenty-six years old this year, and she will be here alone for the rest of her life. ”

Second Sister Fu suddenly had a sympathetic look on her face: "I didn't even think about the eldest sister...... When you say this, you suddenly feel that she is so pitiful. ”

Guo Shao took the opportunity to say softly: "She is not only the eldest sister of the second sister, just like my sister. One person is to be the queen for the stability of the entire Fu family; Last year was stormy in Tokyo, and without her, at least I would have died without a place to be buried. Ordinary people can remarry if they are widowed, but she can't, so she can only spend it here. Should we let her sacrifice herself unconditionally for the overall situation for the sake of morality and etiquette, and then be so lonely? ”

Second Sister Fu's face gradually regained her vitality, although she looked regretful, but it was not as soft and melancholy as just now.

Guo Shao said quietly: "No matter what happens, the Queen Mother will not take anything from you." Second sister, think about it, you are the person who married the Guo family in the name of the Fu family, from the perspective of the marriage layout, the role of your sisters is the same, but King Fu Jiawei will not be willing to accept the matter of tossing and turning in vain to make the world laugh. ”

Second Sister Fu whispered: "The husband is sacrificing hue to sleep? ”

"What hue do I have......" Guo Shao said in amazement.

She covered her mouth and smiled, stood on tiptoe and whispered, "The eldest sister and I look so similar, you must be very willing." ”

Guo Shao bowed his head and nodded in acknowledgement.

Fu Ermei is a person who can't hide her thoughts, even if she doesn't say it, it's easy to show it. Looking at her playfully joking, Guo Shao knew that he had passed the level...... He found that he was indeed quite capable in some aspects, and there was a way to appease Second Sister Fu anyway; What I was confused about before was how to understand my own thoughts and accept my actions.

Guo Shao didn't speak much at first, but he was carefully feeling the mind of Capturing Second Sister Fu. People have experience and inertial thinking, but she doesn't really care about her husband's three wives and four concubines; But she cares that Guo Shao treats her as someone else's shadow and puppet.

So Guo Shao directly grasped the key place...... It's not a deception. He didn't treat his second sister as a substitute in the first place, but the position in his heart was different, but if he wanted to explain his true thoughts, it was very troublesome, unclear, and his credibility was low.

And the method he just made was much simpler and easier, and the result was the same anyway.

By this time the sun was in the middle of the day, and it was almost time to eat. So the second sister Fu took Guo Shao to the palace to eat.

…… Fu Jinzhan sat silently on the table, but seeing Fu Ermei's flushed and shy face, Marigold muttered in her heart, and couldn't help but glance at Guo Shao, but saw that his expression was very calm as usual.

"Big sister." Fu Ermei gently sat down beside Marigold and gently grabbed her hand under the table.

Fu Jinzhan's face was hot, ashamed and ashamed, a little unclear about the scene in front of him, and even suspected that what he had done before was just a dream. She nervously rubbed her knees together, bit her scarlet lower lip, and said awkwardly, "I thought you weren't coming to dinner." ”

Second Sister Fu said: "In the future, I will often enter the palace to accompany the eldest sister." ”

"Hmm." Fu Jinzhan replied and stroked his palm gently. After a while, the palace ladies came up with all kinds of delicacies and knelt down to the table.

"Eldest sister is not happy to see me?" Second Sister Fu said softly.

Marigold sat dignified in front of the palace people and said, "Don't make trouble, sit back in your place." ”

Second Sister Fu persistently entangled with Marigold, and when she saw that those palace maids had retreated, she put her mouth to Marigold's ear and whispered: "I am willing to share everything with the eldest sister, I will not be stingy." ”

Marigold pursed her lips when she heard this, thinking that she had said this before.

Fu Jinzhan glanced at Guo Shao, who was speechless, and turned his head to the second sister Fu's ear, with a helpless expression, and said with his lips: "Second sister, don't say it, let alone let the people of the Fu family know." ”

The second sister smiled: "Don't worry, eldest sister." ”
