Chapter 213: The Emperor Gives Marriage
"What the spies said, but it's true?"
The emperor was dealing with the twists and turns, and suddenly asked Ah Fu, the eunuch beside him, Ah Fu had followed the emperor for many years, and knew the emperor's joy and anger, so he hurriedly stepped forward and spoke.
"Naturally, it's true, listening to the spy's meaning, the third prince and Wei Xiyue of the Wei family were kicked out by Mrs. Gu, at that time, many people saw the two of them having a stiff quarrel, and Gu Xue'er, the granddaughter of the Gu family, also changed her previous image and made a lot of noise at Huo Lingxiao. completely disregarding his identity, it can be seen that Mrs. Gu really doesn't want to cooperate with Huo Lingxiao. ”
Ah Fu replied to the emperor's words, and sharpened the ink for the emperor.
The emperor pondered for a moment, then smiled.
Although the emperor didn't say anything, Ah Fu understood: "The three princes went to Gu Taifu's mansion not necessarily to win over Gu Taifu, the three princes have always ignored the government and politics, nor did they care about big and small affairs, and they didn't seem to have the intention of seizing power." ”
Ah Fu looked at the emperor's face and cautiously continued to speak: "Besides, the third prince has always honored you, and you have a special preference for the third prince, this matter is not done by Mrs. Gu." ”
The emperor shook his head: "Do you really think that the third child doesn't have any intention of seizing the throne?" Is there anyone in the royal family who is not deceived by power? ”
"Although I have been very good to the third child for so many years, it is inevitable that the third child will not think about me otherwise, the power thing will be addictive, the third child is still so young, even if he has no ideas now, if these brothers compete for power in the future, if anyone succeeds, how can he still have his status? He also had to think about his future. ”
As he spoke, the emperor sighed.
"You can't say it all, the old slave has a good relationship with the third prince when he sees the eleventh prince."
"The eleventh is spoiled by the queen mother, and he is with the third president, he is not sensible now, and he will know the benefits of power in the future, and he will also try his best to drag me from his position."
"Your Majesty, you're too worried."
The emperor looked at Ah Fu: "I also hope that I think too much, you have been with me for so many years, and I don't hide it from you, I still feel a little happy about this behavior of Mrs. Gu, which proves that he is sincere to me." ”
"Maybe the third child doesn't want to win him over, but after this incident, she and Mrs. Gu will have no chance to cooperate, that is to say, Mrs. Gu will not be his help."
Ah Fu couldn't say anything more, and should have a few words with the emperor.
The emperor didn't continue to talk about it, but he was suspicious, afraid that the third child would really have some rebellious intentions.
"Someone."
The emperor had his own shadow guard by his side, and as soon as he finished speaking, a person stood silently next to him.
Ah Fu took the situation in front of him as usual, and did not show any surprise.
"Let's go and check carefully, the cause of Huo Lingxiao and Mrs. Gu's incident, and then stare at the state of the third child."
Seeing that the emperor didn't have any orders, the shadow guard left silently just like when he came.
After ordering this thing, the emperor seemed to let go of a matter of heart, and felt that the whole person was a little more relaxed: "Ah Fu, prepare dinner!" ”
Ah Fu informed the imperial dining room that the emperor would go after it was done, probably because he was in a good mood, so the emperor's meal had increased a lot today.
There are also many secret guards in Huo Lingxiao's mansion, and they will notify him if they notice anything unusual.
"Third prince, there have been a lot of secret guards in our house recently."
The dark guard said to Huo Lingxiao, originally they thought it was just a temptation from other princes, but they didn't expect the activities to be so frequent.
Chao Lingxiao knew about this matter, so he first thought about the people around him, and then focused on the emperor.
"Don't worry too much, if they don't have any special moves, don't report to me, let the people around you be vigilant, don't be chosen by some people."
The matter between him and Wei Xiyue and Gu Taifu has just happened, and I think that this matter has reached the ears of the emperor, although the emperor has believed it, but he inevitably has doubts.
Judging from the current situation, things are quite optimistic, which proves that in fact, subconsciously, the emperor thinks that this matter is true.
Huo Lingxiao was about to rest, but suddenly thought of the matter of the secret guard, since the emperor was suspicious of him, then Wei Xiyue's side would also be monitored.
Wei Xiyue only has Qingying and a secret guard by her side, so I'm afraid she didn't notice anything unusual so quickly.
After thinking for a while, I couldn't rest assured, put on my clothes, and went to Wei Xiyue to tell her.
Wei Xiyue has always slept late, and when she heard the noise outside, she instantly became vigilant.
didn't feel Qingying's abnormal movement, which proves that this person has no threat to himself.
The window was knocked softly, and Wei Xiyue walked to the window and opened it.
"Why are you here??
Looking at the person in front of her, Wei Xiyue was a little puzzled, although she said this, she still let the person in and closed the window again, although he was not afraid of any gossip, but it was not a good thing to be discovered at this time.
Huo Lingxiao came in, and he didn't want to disturb her more this time: "I came here this time mainly to tell you that the emperor should have heard the news by now and sent someone to monitor us, for fear that you are in any danger, tell you in advance." ”
"I noticed that there are a lot of secret guards outside the mansion today who have been paying attention, anyway? And thank you for coming to tell me. ”
Wei Xiyue smiled.
"Aren't we friends if you're so polite to me? , It's so late, I won't bother you, I'll go first. ”
Wei Xiyue stopped Huo Lingxiao: "Wait a minute, since the emperor suspects us, why don't we play another scene." ”
Huo Lingxiao raised her eyebrows and motioned for her to say.
"Don't be in a hurry, come and sit."
After listening to what Wei Xiyue said, Huo Lingxiao didn't expect it, and couldn't help but sigh again, Wei Xiyue's mind.
It was already late after discussing this matter, and it was inconvenient for Huo Lingxiao to stay longer, so he said goodbye and left.
The next day, Wei Xiyue and Huo Lingxiao acted in a scene again according to the previous plan, and on the street, many people could see it, and the surrounding secret guards would also report this matter to the emperor.
Huo Lingxiao knew that the emperor would believe it or not, it would depend on tomorrow's early dynasty.
Above the Early Dynasty:
The emperor deliberately cared a little more about Gu Taifu, which was not usual, and the people around him had heard some information more or less, but in fact, Gu Taifu understood that this was the result of a scene that Wei Yatou and the third prince were doing.
After listening to the emperor's question, Gu Taifu said respectfully: "If you go back to the emperor, thanks to the emperor's concern, the minister has been in good health recently. ”
replied to the emperor a few more words, and the two staged a drama of harmony between the monarch and the minister.
"I heard that your granddaughter Gu Xue'er has not been going well in her marriage recently."
Mrs. Gu didn't understand what the emperor meant. The emperor didn't need him to reply.
"How do you feel that there are two very good people in your heart who want to marry your granddaughter?"
Mrs. Gu's heart suddenly sounded the alarm: "The emperor knows, Xue'er has been spoiled by me since she was a child, and I still want her to stay with me for a few more years, so I have no plans to let her marry for the time being." ”
The emperor still wanted to persuade Mrs. Gu and hurriedly blocked back.
Although the emperor was a little unhappy about Gu Taifu's attitude, when he thought of his affair with Huo Lingxiao, he felt that this matter was acceptable.
But he has always spoken with sincerity, and it is impossible for someone to refute it so easily: "Xue'er is going to marry sooner or later, let a few children see each other another day, which one Xue'er likes, which one will be given to marry." ”
The words cannot be refuted, although it seems that Gu Xue'er has a great right to choose, but no matter how she chooses, she is the one chosen by the emperor.
Gu Taifu frowned, but it was impossible to refuse the emperor at this time, even if he was unwilling in his heart, he had to thank the emperor: "Then thank the emperor." ”
After dealing with today's affairs, the emperor was in a very good mood, and everyone had nothing to do to retreat.
When he went back, Mrs. Gu went to the restaurant and asked someone to send a message to Wei Xiyue and asked her to come out to meet him.
"Taifu, you look for me."
As soon as Wei Xiyue received the news, she immediately rushed over.
Mrs. Gu sighed, and then told Wei Xiyue what happened in the court today.
"Xiyue, I know you're smart, can you solve this matter?"
Mrs. Gu is good at teaching, but she is helpless to deal with this matter, and the first thing that comes to mind is her, so she immediately came to him for help.
Wei Xiyue had just asked Mrs. Gu for help, and the two of them also acted together in a scene, and now Mrs. Gu spoke, of course she couldn't refuse, so she agreed.
Because he was afraid of being found out and meeting in private, Mrs. Gu left quickly, and when Mrs. Gu left, Wei Xiyue began to have a headache.
How can the emperor let go and give up giving Gu Xueer only a marriage?
I was worried for a long time, and I thought of many ways, but they were not suitable, and suddenly I had a flash of inspiration and thought that I was about to take the monthly exam.
This time, the emperor himself said that the first place could ask him for a promise.
"That's a ......"
Wei Xiyue instantly had an idea, thinking of this, he couldn't help but raise a smile, if he could get the first place in the monthly exam, he could ask the emperor for a will.
It seems that this time the first self must get.
Now Gu Xue'er is being stared at by the emperor, and before the end of the monthly exam, she can't be allowed to meet with the person who is married.
"Blue Shadow."
The green shadow appeared in front of her.
"When I went to the third prince, I said that I had something to ask him to help with."
Wei Xiyue continued to wait here, Huo Lingxiao came quickly.
"You just met Mrs. Gu?"
As soon as he entered the door, Huo Lingxiao asked.
"Well, how do you know?"
"I just met him on the road, and I chatted casually, and then Qingying came over and told me that you are looking for me, are you worried about Gu Xue'er's affairs?"
Wei Xiyue nodded: "I have already thought of a way, this time the monthly exam is mainly for me to get the first place and ask the emperor for a promise." ”
Huo Lingxiao also thought of this: "Do you need me to do something?" ”
"I hope to send a message to Mrs. Gu in your name, and ask him to tell Xue'er not to leave the house before pretending to be sick until the monthly exam, and by the way, tell him that I will definitely get the first place in the monthly exam."
Huo Lingxiao understood what she meant and agreed.
