Hearing this, Emperor Li sighed with emotion, "It's hard for you to worship Yan Wan for me these days." I was still too ruthless back then...... It has been fourteen years since that incident, and it is a coincidence that Qi Wuyin caught the little girl of the Gu family a few days ago. ”

"What?" Concubine Hui looked at Emperor Li in a daze, and almost used all her strength to calm down the spontaneous surprise, and hurriedly lowered her head, pinched her fingers on her wrist for a long time, and then said, "Is there still anyone alive back then?" ”

"Not really. However, it is not difficult to keep a person with Gu Yuanci's ability. Emperor Li didn't notice Concubine Hui's strange appearance and said slowly.

"So what's going on now......

Hearing this, Emperor Li patted the back of Concubine Hui's hand and said, "The people let the accomplices rob them." Alas...... I also blamed Linchen for this incident, he is a good boy, but his temper is too stubborn. Huiyue, I asked someone to send you some portraits to see if you like to choose a daughter-in-law. Although Xie Yaoguang is good, he can only be Linchen's side concubine, and the concubine still wants to be a noble daughter of the family. ”

After guessing that it was probably not Gu Changge who was arrested, Concubine Hui gave a sigh of relief. Her attention quickly returned to Emperor Li's last words, Emperor Li couldn't wait to choose a concubine for Linchen? Listening to Emperor Li, Xie Yaoguang is a good person, but his background is not good, and he can barely be a side concubine, and the main concubine can only be a noble daughter from other families.

Concubine Hui, who knew Xie Yaoguang's true identity, pursed her lips slightly, although Linchen didn't know her identity at present, but she could see that Linchen also liked Xie Yaoguang, how could she agree to let Xie Yaoguang be a side concubine and then marry other women with Linchen's temperament?

"What Your Majesty said is very true, the concubines will pay attention." After thinking for a while, Concubine Hui said softly, "Do you want to rest again?"

"What are you resting, then Gu Changge doesn't know where to hide? How do you want me to rest? That girl was a quirky appearance back then, thanks to the fact that she didn't marry Lin Chen back then, if she really let Lin Chen marry her, maybe she would have to make some trouble. At the mention of Gu Changge, Emperor Li's tone became disgusted.

Hearing Emperor Li's disgusted tone, Concubine Hui couldn't help frowning. Back then, Emperor Li liked the girl Changge quite much, and even opened his mouth to tell Mrs. Gu about it many times, but every time he was laughed at by Mrs. Gu. Now that she heard Emperor Li say this, she only felt cold all over her body, why did Your Majesty hate the Gu family so much?

The Gu family was loyal and finally ended up like this, how can it not be regretted. Concubine Hui lowered her eyes to hide the strange emotions in her eyes, and her years of quiet cultivation allowed her to hide the expression on her face very well.

It happened suddenly, but now that I think about it, I feel that it was a trap that had been laid at all, waiting for King Qin and the Gu family to jump down. Why did Emperor Li deal with a ruthless person without half a moment's hesitation, Concubine Hui actually knew it in her heart.

Whether it is King Qin, the proud son of the sky, or the famous Gu family, they are the most feared existence of Emperor Li. Especially after a lot of hardships, the Gu family's descendants finally had a daughter-Gu Changge.

Since childhood, he has been very intelligent, not to mention, he is even more favored, although Mrs. Gu is extremely strict with her, but he still loves her very much in his bones, and even the Queen Mother, who has never liked to be close to people, is attracted to her and regards her as the meat of her heart.

So much so that when the old case broke out, the queen mother, who had been in the world for many years, would specially invite the golden mace left by the former emperor to intercede for Gu Changge.

Failing to save her grandson before Emperor Li's decree was already the biggest pain in the queen mother's heart, so she tried her best to keep the little girl she liked the most.

It's a pity that what she didn't know was that under that circumstance at that time, Emperor Li was already determined to kill everyone, even if he compromised for a while, he still refused to let go under her coercion. However, she was afraid that the Queen Mother would never have imagined that it was the old scheming Gu Taifu who sacrificed his son for the Great Calendar who finally forced Emperor Li to compromise.

King Qin committed suicide in prison by drinking wine, and Sister Yan Wan committed suicide in the palace. And the Gu family was suspected of rebellion, except for the Gu family's descendants, who were given wine, and all the others were cut under the knife, and the imperial city was bleeding like a river that day. The queen mother who heard the news couldn't afford to be ill after that, and she ate fasting and chanted Buddha every day and refused to see Emperor Li.

In addition to the means of consolidating power, the great monarchy brought more about suppressing all the voices of injustice under the power. Since then, the court has been peaceful, but there is no more talent-rich Qin Wangfu, and there is no Gu family dedicated to the country.

And Concubine Hui, who witnessed Yan Wan's death, watched the emperor's ruthlessness and carved these past events into her heart. Even if those people had deep feelings for her, she still chose to put away her tears of grief and indignation and be a bystander in the corner of the palace, watching the situation in the DPRK and China change with cold eyes, and laughing at those people rising and falling, until a new situation emerged.

"I want to talk to Yan Wan." At this point, Emperor Li stood up and looked at Concubine Hui and said softly.

Hearing this, Concubine Hui smiled comfortably, "Your Majesty, please come with your concubine." ”

Saying that, Hui Guifei helped Emperor Li and the two of them to walk behind the carved wooden door, stepped forward and retreated the door, and then Hui Guifei walked into the side hall first, and after removing the Buddha shrine on the side, the tablet and the portrait of the woman placed behind were revealed.

Looking at the woman on the portrait, Emperor Li sighed, and couldn't help but reach out and touch the handwriting on the tablet, and his lips were speechless. His eyes were full of affection and couldn't be expressed, so he had to hold tears in his eyes but didn't dare to fall.

"Your Majesty, if you have anything to say, just tell Sister Yan Wan. You can rest assured that no one will disturb you. The words fell and Concubine Hui bowed, "The concubine is guarding for you outside." ”

As soon as she finished saying this, Concubine Hui bowed and retreated, leaving Emperor Li standing alone in front of Yan Wan's tablet in a daze. The place where the tablet is placed is very clean, it is obvious that the founder often comes to clean it, thinking of this, Emperor Li sat cross-legged on the soft couch on the side and muttered to himself, talking about his past with Yan Wan, regardless of whether the deceased would hear it.

And Concubine Hui, who was standing outside the hall, looked at the carved wooden door that was closed, and the corners of her lips were slightly hooked. A trace of ridicule slipped from her eyes, Sister Yan, have you seen this man for so many years, he still boasts that he is as deep as a promise, if he is really as deep as the sea, how can he let the Rong family poison Lu Hou, and then fall in love with you again? I'm afraid there is nothing like the country and the power in his hands for him.

"Concubine Niangniang......" Yi Ge walked out from behind the curtain on the side and respectfully handed over a letter, "This is what the Lord asked me to pass on to you before. ”

"How is your master doing?" Hearing this, Concubine Hui asked after pulling Qi Ge to the side and sitting down.

frowned and pondered for a while before he spoke, "There are many things that the concubine is in the palace and is not clear. If you are worried, the concubine can write to ask. ”

"It's an eventful time now, and there's no need for such trouble. You've been researching medicinal diets these days, and I've asked the kitchenette to prepare dinner for the two of us to eat together. When the words fell, Concubine Hui reached out and patted Yi Ge's hand, and said warmly.

"Thank you, mother. Would you like to read the Lord's letter first? Maybe there's something important in there. ”

Hearing this, Concubine Hui raised her eyebrows and smiled lightly and opened the letter, which was the word that Xie Yaoguang had been used to when he was young. Looking at the content written in the letter, Concubine Hui smiled slightly, but she didn't expect that Empress Xu would have such a hand. Is this preparing to beat yourself down? In the end, let yourself end up with the Rong family, not to mention who came up with the idea of Queen Xu, but it was obvious that it should be for himself and Linchen.

Thinking of this, a trace of coldness slipped through Hui Guifei's eyes, and then she threw the note into the smoker and watched the flames devour it. The real battle has just begun.
