Chapter 37: Heaven Listens
In the backyard of the Tianting Palace, His Majesty was drinking tea with Gu Zhan.
The windows here are wide open, the palace was originally built in the highest place in the Xijing City, and this day the palace is built at the highest place in the palace, and now it is autumn, and it is extremely cold.
Gu Zhan thought that he would have to lose the thickness he was wearing today, otherwise this old bone would not be able to lie down on him for ten days and half a month when he went back.
From a distance, the courtyard is vacated on the edge of a cliff.
The palace is surrounded by smoke, and it is better to sit here and watch the scenery, but it is better to say that there are two people in the scenery.
The emperor took a sip of tea and half-leaned on the sofa, staring at the scenery in a daze.
Gu Zhan stood in front of the marble fence carved with dragon patterns behind his back and sighed, "The scenery is really good, no wonder Your Majesty likes this place." ”
"You like it too?" The emperor glanced at Gu Zhan and laughed.
"Because Your Majesty likes it, the minister likes it." Gu Zhan replied in an orderly manner.
The emperor grabbed a handful of melon seeds, as if bored, and played with the pitcher.
He threw it for a long time, but only threw one in, and the little eunuch who was waiting on the side trembled and cleaned up the melon seeds that fell on the ground.
"Tsk, I can't hit it." The emperor frowned, he turned his head and asked Gu Zhan, "Can you vote?" ”
Gu Zhan glanced at the pot, shook his head and smiled: "Your Majesty, the spout of this pot is too small, and the minister's eyes are not very good, I'm afraid I won't be able to hit one." ”
At this moment, the little eunuch who had just cleaned up the melon seeds ran back, and he whispered to the emperor: "His Royal Highness the Prince and Miss Gu are here. ”
The Emperor nodded: "Come in." ”
Gu Nian was the first time he had seen this Heavenly Listening Temple.
The journey to the Tianting Hall just now almost didn't tire Gu Nian half to death, Gu Nian looked at the long staircase in front of him and was stunned.
Zhu Gonggong introduced on the side, every dragon pattern here is restored to the stairs little by little according to His Majesty's imperial paintings, and the stairs are not long, with 999 floors.
"It's not long, and you get used to it as you walk. Exercising is good for your health! Father-in-law Zhu comforted.
Light work is not allowed in the palace, so Yu Zeyan also accompanied her to walk the nine hundred and ninety-nine stairs together.
The staircase is made of white marble and is carved with delicate dragon patterns. From a distance, it looks like a dragon hovering over a staircase.
Due to the high terrain, the surface of the marble staircase is struck by water mist from time to time, making the surface particularly smooth.
Gu Nian almost fell several times, and she almost scolded.
Yu Zeyan gave her a look, she responded with a smile, but she was scolding her mother in her heart.
She Gu Nian is not stupid enough to talk nonsense in front of the Son of Heaven, and Yu Zeyan doesn't believe in herself too much, she still wants her own life.
Gu Nian thought about it this morning, and when he was sweating, he was either in a sauna or doing physical training.
After a while, when he was finally about to walk up, Gu Nian glanced at Gonggong Zhu and Aunt Ceremonial who were walking like flying in front of him, and then turned his head to look at Yu Zhiyan, who was also expressionless beside him.
She asked in a low voice, "Don't you all feel tired?" ”
"Tired... Miss..."Qiu Tong behind him was also out of breath.
Yu Zeyan snorted: "Where is this?" If you really want to practice martial arts to gain internal strength, you will have to walk on him at least ten times a day on this journey. ”
Gu Nian sighed, thinking that I don't need it, thank you for the soul beads, for giving me internal strength.
Finally arrived in front of the Heavenly Hearing Temple.
Gu Nian tried to hold back her breathlessness, she looked around, the jungle was thick, it seemed to be on the mountain.
She looked around curiously, sweating from the forced exercise.
The wind on the mountain was not small, and when it blew like this, Gu Nian suddenly sneezed.
"Ahh Gu Nian couldn't hold back, and smiled embarrassedly.
Yu Zeyan glanced at her and whispered, "Void." ”
You, you're empty! Gu Nian almost scolded again.
Gu Nian thought to himself, does your little slimming board really look good? Those who don't know look like they're malnourished.
Gu Nian ignored him, and stepped forward in three steps and two steps to keep up with Gonggong Zhu's pace.
She adhered to the concept of seeing less, saying less, and doing less wrong, and entered the temple with her head down.
The door of this hall was wide open, and there was no one in front of the hall, not even the guards and other people who protected the emperor.
The breeze blowing through the hall was blowing, and Gu Nian felt like he was walking naked on the ice, and there was no heating in this hall at all.
It is also strange to say that the Emperor of the Yu Dynasty and his second wife, Qi Guifei, in the autumn of just over September, one is in the winter and the other is in the summer, how did the two of them live together for so many years?
Gu Nian muttered in his heart.
After passing through the long corridor, we entered the inner sanctum.
Gonggong Zhu first went in to make a report, and then walked out with small steps, leading Yu Zeyan and Gu Nian in, leaving Aunt Etiquette and Qiu Tong.
Before leaving, Gu Nian looked back at Qiu Tong affectionately as if he was on the battlefield.
Qiu Tong was also vaguely worried about Gu Nian's eccentric temperament.
"It's fine." Yu Zeyan comforted in a low voice, "Gu Houye is inside." ”
Gu Nian remembered that Gonggong Zhu had informed him in the morning, and Gu Houye came to the palace this day after leaving the court in the morning.
Just at Yu Zeyan's words, Gu Nian suddenly felt that his image was much taller.
I thought that the hall would be warmer, but I didn't expect that the more I went into the hall, the cooler the air became.
Gu Nian and Yu Zeyan walked into the hall, but the hall was empty, and there was no one.
The beams of this temple are very high, so high that you can't see the top at a glance.
The white curtain that hung high was blown by the wind and swayed from side to side, and behind the white curtain, there seemed to be someone talking.
Gonggong Zhu glanced at Gu Nian, who was distracted, and shouted in a low voice: "Miss Gu family, here." ”
Gu Nian came back to his senses and hurriedly walked over quietly.
In the courtyard behind the curtain, the emperor and Gu Zhan were drinking tea.
Yu Zeyan gave a big salute first, and after Gu Nian saw it, he also hurriedly knelt down and bowed: "The courtier Gu Nian sees Your Majesty." ”
"Get up." The emperor said lightly, he turned his head to Gu Zhan and said, "This little girl of your family is very full of aura!" ”
Gu Zhan smiled, he stroked the four-inch beard under his chin, and looked at Gu Nian lovingly.
"What do you think?" The emperor looked at Yu Zeyan with a smile on his face and asked softly.
"Back to Your Majesty's words, the minister will never forget Nian Nian, and the sooner the wedding date, the better." Yu Zeyan smiled, sincerity was written on his face, but what he said made Gu Nian have to feel that something was wrong.
Gu Nian quietly looked at Yu Zeyan, she really wanted to ask Yu Zeyan if you were a paper frame? I can fit it like this.
The Yu Zeyan I met two days ago are all fake Yu Zeyan?
Gu Nianyi couldn't tell whether what he said and what he did was true or false.
If it's true, then Yu Zeyan is too terrifying, is this person a pervert? Could it be that the theory of beating is scolding is love?
If it's fake, then he's really good at acting, a famous actor in Xijing City!
Gu Nian didn't know whether she wanted this vow to come true or not, she just thought that it was probably more likely that she would respect her peers.
But suddenly confessed like this, I felt a little beautiful in my heart.
