Chapter 106: The Queen Comes to the Palace
At this moment, in the Gu Wangfu, Zhaohua had just fallen asleep, and Gu Wangye was discussing countermeasures with Zhou Wenlian and Yue Lin for Zhaohua's success, and suddenly heard someone report from him: "Prince, the queen is here!"
"Queen, she must have come for Mu Changhan's business." Gu Wang Ye looked at the two of them and said.
Zhou Wenlian sighed: "Hey! What a ghost! ”
Gu Wang Ye said: "You two are busy with your own going, and I'll deal with her." ”
The queen's phoenix chariot had already stopped at the gate of the palace, and Prince Gu was busy asking someone to sort out his clothes and hair before leaving the palace to greet him.
When I went out, I saw that the queen's honor guard was less than half of the normal regulations. The queen who got out of the car did not have a hairpin ring on her head, only a silver hairpin was tied to her hair, and there was not much fat powder on her face, wearing a plain dress, Gu Wangye was also stunned when she saw this, although he was angry in his heart, but the queen's move was to invite the guilt, and he had to be respectful to the queen, stepped forward and saluted: "I don't know that the queen is here, and it is far away!" He was about to kneel down and salute, but was mixed up by the eunuch on the side of the queen's order, and said with a ashamed face: "The prince is invited to get up quickly, the palace has come in a hurry, and the palace should ask the prince not to be surprised!" ”
After Prince Gu got up, the queen looked at Prince Gu in embarrassment and whispered: "Today's palace is here for the prince's business......
Gu Wang Ye said: "Niangniang, let's go into the house." After that, he got out of the way and personally led the queen into the palace, and a string of palace maids behind him also followed into the palace with the gifts of medicinal herbs they brought. Entering the palace, the queen sat on the seat, and the prince Gu was about to arrange for someone to send fragrant tea and fruit, the queen said: "It's not necessary, Lord Gu, the palace came to apologize in person this time, how is Zhaohua now?" ”
Gu Wangye said coldly: "Zhaohua has already fallen asleep, and the imperial doctor has also come to take a look, saying that he was frightened, and he was sulking in his heart. But it's hard to say when you'll wake up or what you'll do when you wake up. ”
Queen Luan hurriedly said: "It's hard to say what it is!" ”
Gu Wangye said with a cold face: "Fang Zhaohua woke up for a while, but she was groggy and talking nonsense, and the imperial doctor said that she might have to be so confused for a long time." I also spoil her very much, and she has never been bullied like this. Today is such an originally festive day, in front of all the guests and friends, she can't support it! ”
Empress Luan immediately stood up uneasily and said, "Can I go and see this kid?" ”
Gu Wangye didn't say much, but stretched out his hand and said, "Please." ”
And he led the way, and took the queen with him.
Queen Luan saw that Gu Wangye's expression was very bad, and she was also very worried in her heart, and said secretly: "I heard Changhan say that he just scared and scared this girl, this girl can dance with knives and sticks on weekdays and make a few moves of three-legged cat kung fu, she has climbed trees and climbed over walls since she was a child, and she is wild like a civet cat, can she still be frightened by such a little thing?" I don't believe it! ”
Gu Wang Ye took the queen to Zhaohua's boudoir, and before he could get closer, he heard a loud noise, and a group of maids under the flowers and trees chased a woman with scattered sideburns and shouted: "The county lord, the county lord is us!" ”
Hearing the words "county lord", Queen Luan's heart tightened, and she secretly thought: "That crazy woman is ......"
It was Zhaohua.
But seeing her disheveled, barefoot behind a tree, holding a dangling sword in her hand, the crowd did not dare to approach, but heard her shout, "You want to come and arrest me?" Come on, I'll cut one by one, I'm going to find my daddy, I'm going to be daddy! You are not allowed to touch me......"
The servants were afraid of the sword in her hand, and did not dare to step forward, so they could only persuade hard: "County Lord, don't you recognize us, we are serving you, how can we hurt you, put the sword down quickly, don't hurt yourself!" ”
Zhaohua just dodged and muttered, "Go away, go away!" After talking for a long time, seeing that the people did not retreat, but surrounded them to wait for the opportunity to come forward, suddenly they screamed, waved their swords and slashed at the people, and shouted loudly: "If you want to snatch me away from my father, then ask me if the sword in my hand agrees, do you have to kill you before you stop?" Good, good! You forced me! As she spoke, she really slashed at the crowd, frightening everyone to flee in all directions, and a servant ran slower, and was slashed on the chest by her sword, and in an instant blood was dripping, and the servant turned pale with fright, and shouted: "The county lord is crazy, the county lord is crazy!"
This shout was even more incredible, and the scene was chaotic.
The servants all fled along the way, just coming towards Gu Wang Ye and Queen Luan, and when they saw the prince and the queen, they didn't care about saluting, of course, Gu Wang Ye and the queen didn't care, Zhao Hua ran over with a sword and red eyes, and the eunuch next to the queen immediately shouted: "Escort!" He stood in front of the queen alone, and Prince Gu quickly stepped forward and shouted: "Yun'er, put down the sword, Daddy is here!"
Zhaohua saw his father, the pupils of his eyes shrank, and he stumbled over in a daze, fell into the arms of Gu Wangye, and tightly pulled his sleeves to stare at Gu Wangye's trembling in horror: "Daddy, you are finally here, someone ...... Someone is going to snatch me away......" She glanced at Queen Luan, and immediately became vigilant again, pointed her sword at the queen and shouted: "Who are these people, what are they doing at our house!" Daddy, daddy, don't be afraid, I'll protect you, I'll save myself, if they dare to hit me in the corner of their clothes, I'll poke a hole in them! Zhaohua gritted his teeth and said, his eyes glaring fiercely at Queen Luan.
As soon as Queen Luan saw that gaze, she felt her heart tighten, and Zhaohua in front of her was blue, and her eyes were red, and she was immediately so frightened that she didn't dare to move.
Gu Wang Ye comforted her, patted her head and said, "They are not here to arrest you, they are here to visit you!"
"No, Daddy, don't believe her, she's here to arrest me, you let her go, leave our house, I don't want to see her, Daddy, I'm afraid!"
Zhaohua pulled Gu Wangye's sleeve as if he saw some devil, he was terrified, and Gu Wangye comforted: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, okay, Daddy will take her away in a while, you go back to the house obediently, today is tired, you go to sleep for a while, I will ask Master Zhou to steam your favorite buns for you, and we will eat when you wake up."
Zhaohua muttered: "Eat steamed buns, eat steamed buns......" Zhaohua's eyes were wooden, and then he calmed down a little. Gu Wang Ye gently took the sword in her hand, handed it to the servant next to her, and sent her back to the house while whispering comfort.
Queen Luan stayed in the courtyard and frowned, looking at the situation, Zhaohua was not lightly ill, although Gu Wangye didn't say anything, but Zhaohua's every move was to reprimand her, she felt very ashamed, but she couldn't go. Gu Wangye led her to watch this play to slap her in the face, she was ashamed but couldn't say anything, she didn't stay or leave, she just felt embarrassed.
After the prince came out, he instructed the maidservant: "Take all the sharp weapons, porcelain, and rings and jewelry that can be taken away from the house, and all sharp objects with sharp and thorny eyes, and move them to other places, and look at the county lord, if she wakes up and still makes trouble, then tie her up." After a pause, he then ordered: "Please stay in the palace for a few more days and take care of the princess, and you must help the imperial doctor with all your heart."
The maidservants agreed one after another, and then Gu Wang Ye walked in front of the queen, bowed respectfully, red eyes, gritted his teeth, and said word by word: "Queen Mother, you have also seen that my son Zhaohua is already crazy and unconscious, so the minister has nothing to scruple about now, so the minister will be blunt." If there is anything you don't like, please forgive me. ”
Queen Luan lowered her head and pursed her lips and didn't dare to look at him, Gu Wang Ye was full of confidence, and said loudly: "The minister thinks that it is useless for the mother to take off the ring, wear plain clothes, and bring gifts to make amends, because the mother just wants the minister to feel that the mother is a daughter, and the minister should be content to apologize to the minister." But Niangniang, the minister can be content, what about Zhaohua? Niangniang's move just gave the old minister enough face, but the minister didn't care about his own face, the minister's daughter Zhaohua! ”
In the end, Prince Gu almost turned into a hysterical roar, and the eunuch beside Queen Luan said, "Prince Gu, you...... You've trespassed! He reminded in a low voice, in exchange for an even more angry roar from Gu Wangye: "This king is going to trespass today, so what!" If you want to deal with this king, you have to deal with the prince first! ”
Empress Luan raised her head abruptly and said, "Lord Gu, the crown prince was just impulsive, and he didn't expect things to turn out like this." You and I are both parents, and I am innocent of your feelings, but can a moment of righteous indignation save the county lord now? disposed of the prince and Gu Wangye, what should Zhaohua do, who else in the world can take care of her? We have to find a way to solve it together, the children have made mistakes, I can do anything, and I am willing to help my children save this matter! ”
"Please go back to the palace, minister, I am dizzy today, I am really afraid that I can't control myself, a good daughter has become like this, the minister is disheartened, and I can't discuss with the enemy. Zhaohua has a doctor here to diagnose and smelt, what Niangniang wants to discuss with the minister, not how to save Zhaohua, because Niangniang doesn't understand medical skills, what Niangniang wants to discuss with the minister is how to save the prince! ”
Queen Luan didn't hide it, and said happily: "There is nothing wrong with a mother wanting to save her child, this palace is to save him!"
Gu Wangye "snorted" and said: "The minister has said, don't discuss with the enemy!"
Gu Wangye's mouthful of an "enemy" is not in accordance with the etiquette law, because the royal women and courtiers are also monarchs and ministers, he keeps saying that they are "enemies" between them, in other words, in other words, Queen Luan should have asked the emperor to confuse the public with his gossip, cause chaos to the court, and rebel, intending to rebel...... and other crimes, but today, it is she who is guilty first, Zhaohua is playing the prince, but unfortunately there is not enough evidence, and the prince bullying Zhaohua is an irrefutable fact, if she wants to investigate the guilt of Gu Wangye, then her son will not escape the blame!
Under the dilemma, Queen Luan had to make compromises, she couldn't bear the unhappiness in her heart, and said stubbornly: "Okay, since that's the case...... Then the palace will not be reluctant, and the palace will ask the prince to come in person to make amends to the prince. ”
Gu Wang Ye shouted: "You still dare to let him come!"
