Chapter 68: The Comb
The hallway is narrow and there are rooms on both sides, and the doors of the houses are closed, making the light a little dim. Xue Chongxun carried Gao Shi along the corridor to the innermost point, and then went to push a door, but it was not pushed, and the inside was latched.
Xue Chongxun gently put down Gao Shi and let her stand behind him, and then he knocked on the door twice with his knuckles, and a voice inside trembled: "Who...... Who is it? ”
"Open the door, you can't stop this door, and those who resist will be guilty of one more degree." Xue Chongxun bluffed.
After a while, I heard a knock at the door, and sure enough, it opened. Xue Chongxun pushed it away and walked in, only to see a palace maid standing there timidly with something in her hand. Xue Chongxun was slightly cautious in his heart, paying attention to her hands, so as not to be accidentally injured by her.
The light in the closed room was still not very good, and it took Xue Chongxun a while to see clearly that the thing in the palace maid's hand turned out to be a comb! He couldn't help but laugh dumbly, turned back to Gao and said, "Come in." ”
When Gao heard this, he followed in, and Xue Chongxun said when he saw this: "It turns out that you can already walk." ”
Gao Shi was a little embarrassed and said, "I just found out...... It doesn't hurt much in my leg anymore. ”
"You ...... Who are you? The palace maid asked in a trembling voice. Gao's hair was scattered, and the light here was not very good, so the palace maid probably didn't see it for a while. But after not waiting for a while, she saw the blue hairpin dress on Gao's body, and the women who are often in the Daming Palace naturally have some knowledge of women's clothes, and the ones who wear this kind of clothes are at least the life women, and the palace maid said: "You are a mother?" ”
Gao didn't say which palace he was, he only nodded and said: "Something happened to the Lin De Palace, borrow your place to hide, and reward you afterwards." ”
The palace maid hurriedly lost her comb, stood respectfully with her hands down, and glanced at Xue Chongxun from time to time, it was obvious that this guy was a man and was by no means a eunuch, who had ever seen a eunuch with a long beard?
"He's a minister of the court,......" Gao couldn't help but explain, and then diverted the topic, "Which palace are you from?" ”
The palace maid lowered her head and said, "The slave maid is in the Huanyi Bureau...... Washing clothes, there were not enough people at the banquet, so I was called by my grandfather to help, and then something happened The slave saw that everyone was running, so she ran here to hide. ”
"So that's the case, if you follow me, you won't have to go to the Huanyi Bureau to do those tiring jobs in the future."
The palace maid hurriedly knelt down and said, "Thank you for your great kindness." ”
The two women were talking nonsense there, and they didn't even understand each other's identities for a long time, they were all fooling, and Xue Chongxun didn't care, just stood at the door and watched the situation outside. No one has come here yet, and I don't know if the rebels will have a chance to search for it before the forbidden army arrives...... Although the forbidden army dispatched later than the sixth rate of the East Palace, the Xuanwu Gate was not far from here.
It was relatively quiet in the four places, it was not that they knew in advance that they came from the main hall, and it didn't look like there was a turmoil at all, and the Lin De Hall was really big.
"Come here, watch at the door, and when someone comes, hurry up." Xue Chongxun instructed the palace maid, and then walked in and looked around, trying to find some weapons for self-defense.
This place is neither a kitchen nor a palace bedroom, and I didn't find kitchen knives and other knives for a long time, not even scissors. Xue Chongxun stood there and looked at it, his gaze turned to a bed.
The Hu bed is naturally not a bed, it is a light chair that can be folded. When he walked over and lifted the bed, he heard Gao say, "I don't have to sit." ”
Xue Chongxun: "......"
He didn't answer, he folded the bed and held it in his hand, but he also took advantage of it, and it was better to talk than nothing. In case a soldier finds this place, they have weapons in their hands, and the place is too narrow to be blocked by flesh and blood, and it is better to have a Hu bed.
Xue Chongxun prepared for a while, glanced at Gao's and asked casually, "Are you scared now?" ”
Gao Shi was stunned, shook his head, his face was a little shy, probably afraid that Xue Chongxun would ask her why she wasn't scared again, she couldn't answer because of you, right?
"That's good." Xue Chongxun's voice was low, and he responded simply.
After being silent for a while, Gao couldn't help but speak again: "At first, you broke up, and everyone ran away in panic...... There were also a lot of important people present, why did Xue Lang just want to go with me? ”
Xue Chongxun said: "My mother is on the side of Chengxiang Palace, unconscious and unproductive, Li Chenghong definitely can't take care of going over there." In the Lin De Temple, who is important to me except you? ”
Empress Gao hurriedly lowered her head and whispered: "Cheng Xianggong, Zhang Xianggong, and Xiao Xianggong are all very supportive of Xue Lang, and Dou Xianggong often mentions you in front of me, and it is also on your side...... As for me, everyone values me just because I am the queen, without me, Xue Lang can also choose a suitable person in Daming Palace to form an alliance, right? ”
Xue Chongxun thought about it after hearing this, and said in his heart that Queen Gao is really going to be gone, who is better to choose in the palace?
Now that he has done it to this point, he will definitely not be a loyal minister if he doesn't do it, anyone who is the emperor must be closely monitored, and he can't be completely trusted, only by finding a female streamer to take power. As soon as Li Shouli dies, who can be the queen mother? Naturally, she is the biological mother of the new monarch, otherwise the other concubines are neither Li Shouli's main room nor the emperor's biological mother, why should they be the queen mother, and why should they be in politics in the name of righteousness? The Emperor's Biological Mother...... If you don't want to be your son or to outsiders, you can't rely on it. Princess Jincheng? It is really impossible to help her to take power, and the current situation is completely different from the situation of Princess Taiping at that time.
Thinking about it, only Queen Gao is the best candidate and the most reliable.
And people are more or less emotional, they always have to be close to people who have friendships, Xue Chongxun has known Queen Gao for a while, so he is naturally more willing to cooperate with her. Thinking of this, he blurted out: "The clothes are not as good as new, and the people are not as good as the old." ”
After saying that, Xue Chongxun realized that this was a bit ambiguous, and Empress Gao didn't know that her words were referring to friendship, so she hurriedly explained: "Allies who have been in trouble together are naturally more reliable. ”
Gao Shi said softly: "Only Xue Lang can accompany me at this time." ”
Her voice was faint, the lower it was, the more subtle it became. Xue Chongxun felt it and realized that this relationship was probably a bit troublesome, more troublesome than incest with his mother-in-law, because it was related to politics. The Tang Dynasty was already more chaotic than later generations, but in this kind of power field, it is two different things, and it is a foreign relative to interfere in politics, and it is easy to demonize the image of politics if it is done like this...... It's a little more troublesome than the average thing.
He didn't think much about it, his attention was still scattered outside the door, always paying attention to the movement outside.
"It should be okay to wait a little longer, Donggong Liuyu is definitely not Chen Dahu's opponent." He digressed.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the words fell, the palace maid who was watching the wind at the door panicked: "Someone is coming!" ”G
