The princes of the imperial palace were to go to the study every day to study their homework, and the study room of this dynasty was located in a side hall of the Jinluan Palace.

In the Zhao Kingdom, only the ministers of the third rank and above were qualified to go to the early dynasty of the Jinluan Palace, so teaching the princes was the only opportunity for the courtiers below the three grades to set foot in the Jinluan Palace.

But you still can't enter through the main entrance.

Xiao Liulang was carried by Gonggong Wei from the side up the small steps into the Jinluan Palace, and walked through the cloister to the outside of the imperial study.

"The homework of the remaining princes has been completed, and you will give lectures to the prince alone." Grandpa Wei reminded.

The prince and the crown prince are in class together, and the teachers are all respected ministers from the court, the difference is that the prince has a heavier study than ordinary princes, and the princes have to continue after class.

The crown prince followed the teachers in the morning, and in the afternoon he learned to deal with the government with the emperor, and was occasionally sent to practice.

The only one among the princes who no longer had to attend classes was the eldest son, King Ning.

When Xiao Liulang arrived outside the upper study, it happened that the princes came out of it - the third prince, King Rui, had a dish-faced face, and it was obvious that he was in great pain in class; The four princes are suave and light, but they will be able to look at it, and the fifth prince and the sixth prince have serious expressions, and they don't know if their homework is too difficult or what.

Xiao Liulang bowed slightly, his eyes did not squint, neither humble nor arrogant.

Father-in-law Wei saluted several sons.

King Rui stopped and asked, "Gonggong Wei, who is this?" ”

Gonggong Wei said with a smile: "If you go back to His Royal Highness King Rui, this is Xiao Xiu of the Hanlin Academy, and he will give a lecture to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince today." ”

"Such a young ......," Rui Wang's eyes widened.

I didn't say that the official rank was so low.

In comparison, the low rank is nothing, this teacher looks like he is only seventeen or eighteen years old, right? Can you give a lecture to the prince?

And he's ...... It's familiar.

King Rui stared at Xiao Liulang's face for a while.

Xiao Liulang calmly let him see.

King Rui is not the crown prince after all, and he is not close to the former little marquis of Zhaodu, and he didn't see that Xiao Liulang was like him for a while.

"Third brother, can't you go? Didn't you say take me and my fourth brother to your house to play? ”

The six princes urged.

"It's coming, it's coming!"

King Rui didn't think about Xiao Liulang anymore, and hurriedly left.

"Xiao Xiu, please." Father-in-law Wei gestured.

Xiao Liulang stepped inside.

The younger brothers are all out of class, and only I am a little unhappy to stay and continue to study, and then I look at the Hanlin official who came to teach is actually Xiao Liulang, and he is not good.

"How are you?" He almost stood up in shock!

Xiao Liulang arched his hand lightly: "Weichen was ordered by His Majesty to come to give a lecture to the prince. ”

"You...... Lecturing for solitude? ”

What did my father think? Why did you send this guy to lecture you? Is he already so dishonored in his father's heart?

What can a milky boy learn!

The prince's face was blue and white, which was really wonderful.

On the other side, Gu Jiao also entered the palace.

She had come to visit her aunt.

She had the Renshou Palace token given to her by her aunt in her hand, and she entered the palace very smoothly.

When she walked past the Jinluan Palace, she didn't know that Xiao Liulang was inside, but she just subconsciously glanced in the direction of the Jinluan Palace.

The Jinluan Palace is too magnificent, standing on the top of the 100-step long steps, towering under the Langlang Qiankun, leaning on the sky, the atmosphere is magnificent, the heavy historical atmosphere is blowing in the face, solemn and solemn, and people can't help but be in awe.

The Jinluan Palace is the dream place of every Zhaoguo official, and only by ranking in the Jinluan Palace can he really be qualified to be called an important minister of the imperial court.

To get to Insugung Palace, you have to pass through the Imperial Garden.

As soon as Gu Jiao walked there, she was stopped by a familiar and soft voice.

"Sister!"

It's Gu Jinyu.

Gu Jinyu walked towards Gu Jiao with brisk steps, and asked in surprise, "Sister has also entered the palace?" Are you here to visit the lady? ”

Gu Jiao looked at her lightly.

Gu Jinyu was accustomed to Gu Jiao's indifference, smiled, didn't take it to heart, and explained: "Concubine Shuniang is sick, and my grandmother couldn't sleep well after hearing the news, so she asked me to enter the palace to visit Concubine Shuniang for her." ”

Gu Jiao didn't have much contact with Gu Jinyu, but she also remembered that she used to call Old Madam Gu's daughter her aunt.

As if sensing the change in his attitude, Gu Jinyu lowered her head and smiled bitterly: "Sister probably doesn't know yet, I not only took the credit for the bellows, but also almost robbed my sister's glutinous rice mortar, I told Concubine Niangniang that I had a more powerful invention, but the East Window incident caused Niangniang to make a fool of herself in front of Your Majesty, and I heard that it also affected the five princes." Now the lady lady is afraid that she doesn't want to see me at all. ”

Gu Jiao had no intention of gossiping with her, so she didn't answer her words.

Gu Jinyu said: "My sister is going to see Niangniang, why don't you come with me." ”

Gu Jiao was about to say that she was not here to see Concubine Shu, but before she could speak, she was interrupted by a young man's shout.

"You're the wild girl from the countryside!"

Gu Jinyu's face changed slightly, and he turned around and bowed to a brocade-clothed young man: "I've seen the Fifth Highness!" ”

His Royal Highness is seventeen this year, the same age as Gu Chenglin, but two months younger than Gu Chenglin.

He inherited the beauty of Concubine Shu, and he is still outstanding among the princes who are already very good-looking.

It's just that his arrogant arrogance doesn't please Gu Jiao very much.

Gu Jiao didn't raise her eyelids, only glanced at him casually.

The fifth prince stood still in front of the two of them and looked at her in shock: "What is your attitude?" Why didn't you salute when you saw His Highness? ”

It stands to reason that she is going to kneel, but for the sake of her relatives, she is allowed to perform a blessing ceremony!

Gu Jinyu reminded Gu Jiao in a low voice: "Sister." ”

Gu Jiao was indifferent.

The fifth prince was even more angry: "You are so bold! ”

Gu Jinyu hurriedly stepped forward and said softly: "Fifth Highness, my sister has just entered the palace and is not very familiar with the palace rules, I will tell my sister well when I go back." Your Highness the Fifth Highness will forgive your sister for the sake of your grandfather and eldest brother! ”

mentioned the old marquis and Gu Changqing, the expression of the fifth prince softened a little, no matter how ignorant he was, he understood that his grandfather and eldest cousin were his backers.

My grandfather resigned on the surface, but secretly he was doing things for his father, and his eldest cousin must have done something in the barracks.

However, the fifth prince still didn't plan to let Gu Jiao go so soon.

He said coldly to Gu Jiao: "Did you make trouble last time?" ”

Gu Jiao looked at him strangely, completely unable to understand what he was saying.

The fifth prince snorted coldly: "You are really excessive, since you can invent those things, why don't you tell my mother in advance?" There are so many misunderstandings in the middle, and even I was questioned by my father and checked my homework, it's all your fault! ”

What kind of logic is this a domineering bandit?

What will she not do, why will she tell herself with such fanfare that she has nothing to do with the concubine?

Gu Jiao hugged her arms and looked at the five princes like a fool.

Gu Jinyu hurriedly said: "Fifth Highness, it's not about my sister, my sister told me, but I didn't tell my mother!" ”

Gu Jiao didn't deliberately tell Gu Jinyu that Gu Jinyu's words seemed to be taking the responsibility on herself.

But the fifth prince didn't buy it: "Don't speak for her!" I've heard about her! I obviously went back to the capital, but I didn't move back to the house, and I didn't come to say hello to my mother! ”

"My sister is married, where is the daughter who is out of the cabinet to live back to her parents' house? As for saying goodbye to the mother...... Isn't that coming? Gu Jinyu continued to look at Gu Jiao, signaling Gu Jiao to give in.

Gu Jiao was still indifferent.

The fifth prince blew up again: "Look at it, look at it!" She has no sincerity at all! I clearly didn't take me and my mother in my eyes! ”

The five princes lived a life of grievance, first by the emperor grounded, and then ordered to study hard, no one was allowed to help him with his homework, and the teachers were much stricter with him, making him no fun at all.

Today, everyone made an appointment to go to the third brother's house, but he could only stay in the palace because he had his father's punishment and did not finish writing.

He was a little angry with Gu Jiao.

If it was Gu Jinyu, Xu would let him.

But Gu Jiao won't get used to him.

Gu Jiao looked at him and said, "I'm not here to visit Concubine Shu, nor am I here to greet you." ”

After saying that, she tilted her head slightly and motioned for the five princes to get out of the way.

The fifth prince was originally just a little angry with her, but now he was completely enraged.

I treat you as a relative, and I only ask you to give me a blessing gift, but you give me a shame!

The fifth prince said coldly: "Kneel!" ”

Gu Jinyu's face was pale: "Fifth Highness! ”

"Get out of the way! I won't let you be punished together! "The fifth prince rarely spoke so harshly to Gu Jinyu, which shows that he is really angry.

Gu Jinyu didn't dare to speak again.

Gu Jiao frowned irritably: "I'll say one last time, get out of the way." ”

The fifth prince said angrily: "Don't be ashamed, come here, open your mouth to Your Highness!" ”

The two powerful eunuchs stepped forward and reached out to grab Gu Jiao, but they didn't even touch the hem of Gu Jiao's clothes, and they were swept to the grass.

The fifth prince jumped to his feet in anger: "You dare to commit murder in the palace!" He raised his hand to grab Gu Jiao.

Noise is dead!

She's a little grumpy!

It happened that there was a water tank for raising water lilies nearby, Gu Jiao grabbed the collar of the fifth prince and threw the person into the water tank!

"Ahh

The Five Princes screamed.

He sat and fell into the water tank, soaking wet, and grabbed the edge of the tank with both hands, and broke out of the tank with a large water lily on his head.

The huge movement startled Queen Xiao, who was passing nearby.

Today's wind and sun are beautiful, and Empress Xiao originally accompanied Qin Chuyu to play in the imperial garden, but Qin Chuyu disappeared after a while.

She was wandering around at this moment, when she heard the movement and came over, she saw the five princes sitting in the water tank and in a mess, trying to climb but unable to climb out.

Although the appearance of the five princes is a little embarrassing, it is also really funny.

The five princes were born handsome, and there was a pink and tender lotus flower on their heads, which was really unbearable.

"Ahem!" Empress Xiao cleared her throat, covered her mouth with a handkerchief, and instructed the palace people, "What are you doing in a daze?" Why don't you go and help the Fifth Highness up! ”

"Yes!" Father-in-law Su personally brought someone over and fished out the wet five princes from the water tank.

In the summer, it won't be cold when you soak in water, but it's just ugly.

The face of the fifth prince was even more ugly.

The palace people didn't dare to laugh at him, so they held back.

Empress Xiao walked over slowly, swept her gaze, and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"I've seen the Queen Mother." The five princes bowed aggrievedly.

Gu Jinyu also bowed and saluted: "Say hello to the queen, the queen is blessed with gold." ”

Empress Xiao's gaze fell on Gu Jiao beside Gu Jinyu: "Which palace is this?" ”

Gu Jinyu hurriedly said: "If you go back to the queen, this is the sister of the courtier." ”

"Your sister?" Although Empress Xiao had never seen Gu Jiao, she had heard of Gu Jiao, but people's brains sometimes short-circuited, and she didn't remember which sister Gu Jinyu had.

Besides, Gu Jiao's appearance is indeed too unsightly.

Empress Xiao frowned and withdrew her gaze from Gu Jiao.

"What's going on?" Empress Xiao asked the fifth prince.

The fifth prince glanced at Gu Jiao, he didn't plan to sue, but he couldn't stand the broken mouth of the eunuch below.

A eunuch got up from the ground and knelt down for Empress Xiao with a plop: "Empress Qiyu, this girl is so bold that she actually did it to His Royal Highness Fifth in the palace!" If you hadn't arrived in time, Her Highness would have been poisoned by her! ”

Empress Xiao's expression turned cold.

Assassinating the prince in the palace, is this still necessary?

"Empress Qiyu!" Gu Jinyu knelt down and begged for mercy at the risk of death, "There was just a little misunderstanding between the Fifth Highness and my sister, and my sister didn't want to kill the Fifth Highness!" Please Niang Mingjian! ”

"Yo, the Imperial Garden is so lively today."

At the entrance, there was the voice of Zhuang Guifei who seemed to be smiling.

She was followed by Concubine Yu.

Concubine Yu is the biological mother of King Rui, and the two have always been close.

This is the first time that Concubine Zhuang has come out to visit the garden after Princess Ning slipped a tire, and who expected to encounter such a wonderful thing.

Concubine Zhuang owed a slight debt to the queen.

Concubine Yu saluted: "The concubine has seen the queen." ”

The five princes bowed embarrassedly: "Zhuang Niangniang, Yu Niangniang." ”

Concubine Zhuang seemed to be in a good mood today, and when she spoke, she had a three-point smile between her eyebrows: "Xiao Wu, what's wrong?" Is it too hot to go to the water? Why is there still a flower on your head? ”

Flower?!

The fifth prince's face changed, and he hurriedly raised his hand to remove the water lily on the top of his head.

Thinking that his dignified prince of a country was blooming on his head in front of so many people, he was so ashamed and indignant that he couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into!

Empress Xiao looked at Gu Jiao and sighed: "Xiao Wu had a little trouble with this girl, and this palace is investigating this matter." ”

Concubine Zhuang smiled and glanced at Gu Jinyu and Gu Jiao beside her: "So, Xiao Wu was pushed into the water by her?" If there is such a big thing, let's call Concubine Shu, how can I say that Xiao Wu is also his own son. ”

Empress Xiao nodded: "Go and call Concubine Shu." ”

"Yes!" Father-in-law Su went to Changchun Palace to report to Concubine Shu.

Knowing that her son was actually pushed into the water, Concubine Shu didn't care that she was still sick, and went to the imperial garden under the scorching sun.

Empress Xiao can't remember who Gu Jinyu's sister is, can Concubine Shu still think of it?

A red birthmark on her face, so ugly that she can't see anyone, who is it not the niece who was raised in the countryside?!

She held the hands of the fifth prince in distress, turned her head and glared at Gu Jiao viciously: "You pushed Xiao Wu into the water?" I think you're the opposite! ”

Empress Xiao said: "Concubine Shu, the matter has not been clarified yet, Miss Gu and this eunuch have their own opinions, so let's listen to what Xiao Wu and this girl have to say." ”

Concubine Shu gritted her teeth and said, "I only asked the queen, did she push Xiao Wu into the water?" ”

The eunuch beside the fifth prince cried: "Niangniang! That's her! She beat the minions and pushed the Fifth Highness into the water! ”

Concubine Shu was trembling with anger, she clenched her fists, and said to Queen Xiao with the last shred of reason: "Niangniang, this person is my niece's niece, and I ask Niangniang to hand her over to me." ”

Empress Xiao asked, "What are you going to do?" ”

Concubine Shu looked at Gu Jiao coldly and said, "She has a mother and no mother, so the concubine naturally replaces her brother and sister-in-law!" Come! Take her down for me! ”

As soon as the words fell, Gonggong Qin's voice sounded from far and near: "The Queen Mother has arrived-"

Empress Xiao and the concubines hurriedly turned around and bowed down respectfully.

Empress Dowager Zhuang's phoenix came to the imperial garden, like a golden phoenix fluttering its wings, and its momentum instantly shocked the audience.

The Imperial Garden was so quiet that you could hear the pins falling.

Or is Empress Xiao the head of the concubine, so she has to have the courage to speak: "Why did the queen mother come over?" ”

"If the mourning family doesn't come, I don't know that all of you are so good at making trouble for the mourning family. The mourning family invited a doctor from outside the palace, but you blocked the way halfway...... Shouting and shouting and killing. How? The mourning family returned to the palace, so you can't look forward to the mourning family? ”

This hat is buttoned, but it is almost not said that they prevented the Queen Mother from practicing medicine and wanted to kill the Queen Mother's life!

"The Queen Mother forgives her sins!"

Empress Xiao knelt down with the support of the palace maid.

The queen knelt, and Concubine Zhuang and the others could only follow Hula and kneel.

"Come here." Empress Dowager Zhuang said without saltiness.

This was said to Gu Jiao.

Empress Dowager Zhuang still wants to serve a shelf in front of outsiders.

What she meant was actually to let Gu Jiao come to Feng Jiao's side, and then she continued to make a trembling calamity to the queen of the country!

I didn't know that Gu Jiao would be too careful, and with one hand, she got on the phoenix and sat beside her aunt very obediently.

Empress Dowager Zhuang: "......"

Everyone: "......"

Empress Dowager Zhuang: Woo, I'm used to it, and I have to spoil it if it collapses!
