Chapter 47: Candle Tears (25)

At night

A reclining chair was placed in the courtyard of Yong'an Palace, and Bu Niannian lay on Gu Xiang's knees, pinching the jade pendant tassel on Gu Xiang's waist, and turning it around with his fingers.

After a while, her muffled voice came: "Ah Xiang, I haven't had children for so many years, will you be disappointed?" ”

Gu Xiang replied without hesitation: "No, I am very satisfied with you." Heirs, isn't there still Xiao Qi? ”

Bu Niannian then asked: "But shouldn't the emperor have as many heirs as possible, now you only have the child in Sister Mei's womb, don't you feel sorry in your heart?" ”

Without waiting for Gu Xiang to answer, Bu Niannian continued: "Ah Xiang, you can hold another election, there are too few people in the harem now." ”

Gu Xiang helped Bu Niannian up, looked at her, and said very seriously: "Niannian, tell me, who made you say this." ”

Gu Xiang's eyes were too dazzling, Bu Niannian turned his face away, and whispered: "Nobody, I think like this." ”

Gu Xiang: "Nian Nian, I only have you in my heart, how can I delay other people's lives." ”

Bu Niannian felt that his face was a little hot, and muttered in his mouth: "You will coax me." ”

Gu Xiang gently squeezed Bu Niannian's hand: "I'll only coax you." ”

Since becoming the crown prince, Gu Duan's own personal time has become less and less, and every day when he opens his eyes, there are a bunch of things waiting for him to deal with.

Waking up earlier than the chicken and sleeping later than the dog, this sentence has become a true portrayal of Gu Duan's days. However, he has been wandering with Mu Yi for a few years, and his body is very strong, and he can't ask for a sick leave if he wants to.

Finally, Mu Yi couldn't stand it a little and helped him ask for two days off in front of Gu Xiang, and Gu Duan cried with joy on the spot.

Gu Duan hugged Mu Yi's arm and cried: "Imperial sister, does the imperial brother think that I am in the way of his eyes, but it is not good to get rid of me openly, so let me be the prince and want to exhaust me." Look at me, it's only been a few months, and the flesh on my face is gone, and I'm as skinny as wood. ”

Gu Duan howled dryly in his throat, and sadness spread everywhere, earth-shattering.

Coal was originally squatting on Mu Yi's lap and dozing, but Gu Duan's throat almost didn't send it away. It jumped up, raised its claws and swung straight at Gu Duan's face, the cat's claws crossing, and the five blood marks were bright and conspicuous.

Mu Yi turned his head and gave Coal a warning look, and Coal felt threatened and fled with his tail between his legs.

Gu Duan was stunned, and touched his face in disbelief, the wound was not deep, but it was a little stinging.

Just as Mu Yi was about to comfort Gu Duan, Gu Duan's dry howl full of sadness began again: "Sister Huang, you see how long it has been, and Coal doesn't know me anymore." Maybe you won't recognize me after two more days, why am I so miserable, being a prince and ending up in a lonely family and finally being exhausted to death and then throwing my body into a mass grave. Sister Huang, you go and persuade Brother Huang, I am not suitable for this prince, I will be obedient in the future, he said that I will not go west in the east, and he will guide me not to fight in the north. ”

Mu Yi vigorously broke Gu Duan's hand that was holding his arm, got up and took a step back, and sat on another stool. Seeing that Gu Duan had a headache, he said helplessly: "I think I was wrong, you deserve to be tired." ”

Gu Duan was about to start howling again, but Mu Yi hurriedly said: "Your imperial brother has eaten the scales and has an iron heart, so you can be your prince and die of this heart." ”

Gu Duan said pitifully: "But doesn't there one in Zhaoyi's stomach, what if he resents me for stealing his position in the future, and wants to kill me?" ”

"If you lose to him, will you still have the face to live in this world?" Qi Xuan pinched a pair of fans and walked leisurely into the pavilion, looking at Gu Duan with a smile: "If I lose to him, if I were you, I would be ashamed and eager to find a crack in the ground to get into." ”

Although Qi Ying usually smiled and looked more affinable than Mu Yi, Gu Duan was always a little afraid of him in his heart. As soon as Qi Xuan came, Gu Duan suddenly sat upright, and greeted him obediently: "Lord Qi." ”

Mu Yi touched his sore head, pointed to Gu Duan, who judged the two of them, and said, "He doesn't want to be the prince, he has been howling me here for a long time, I have no choice, you advise." ”

Qi Xuan: "Xiao Qi, you don't want to be the prince?" ”

If it weren't for the bright threat in Qi Xuan's eyes that stabbed Gu Duan's eyes, Gu Duan would definitely be deceived by Qi Xuan's gentle tone, he shook his head and waved his hand in denial: "No, I didn't pull the imperial sister to howl, and I didn't want to be the prince." ”

"Look." Qi Ying turned his head to look at Mu Yi, "What about him teasing you?" ”

Muyi: ......

Mu Yi no longer paid attention to Gu Duan, who was trying to become invisible, and she asked Qi Xuan, "What are you doing here with me?" Isn't there still something to be done, staying in Shengjing for so long, not afraid of delay? ”

Qi Xuan: "I've thought about it carefully these days, and your words are not unreasonable. ”

Mu Yi was confused, she had said so much during this time, and Qi Ying said that.

"What did I say?"

"You said you would meddle in the emperor's affairs." Qi Ying looked straight at Mu Yi and said slowly: "I've thought about it seriously these days, and the probability of it happening is very high. So I'm not going to go, and I can't go, until this is over. I have to watch you and make no mistakes. ”

This was Mu Yi's casual remark that night, but I didn't expect Qi Xuan to take it seriously. She couldn't tell for a while: I ......

In the end, Mu Yi could only say aggrievedly: "My lord, you are really dedicated. ”

Gu Duan was puzzled by the second monk who listened to it, and asked cautiously: "Can I know what you are talking about?" ”

Mu Yi didn't hesitate to reward him with a roll of the eyes: "No, you can take care of yourself first." ”

Qi Ying was still looking at her, and Mu Yi felt that the gaze fell on her and didn't move away. She didn't want to continue the topic just now, so she could only pull Gu Duan out again as a shield: "I heard that your imperial brother is going on patrol, is it time, who will go?" ”

Gu Duan was very bitter in his heart, how could he not care about the fire at the city gate, it was always him who was unlucky.

The fish who is always unlucky said: "The date is set for September 17, and we will set off after the Mid-Autumn Festival in the palace." As far as I know, there are people from the six departments of the DPRK and the Central Committee who are following. The palace only set Ying Zhaoyi to accompany her, Yu Zhaoyi will definitely not be able to go if she is pregnant, Yu Zhaoyi was born in Qiyang Houfu, knows martial arts, and has also been on the battlefield before entering the palace, according to the meaning of the imperial brother, if she wants to go, she will go, and if she is not willing to go, forget it. As for me, I can't go without thinking about it, and the imperial brother wants to leave me in Shengjing to take care of the family. ”

Mu Yi: "What about me?" ”

Gu Duan continued: "Brother Huang said, if you want to go, he won't stop you, and if you don't want to go, he won't force you to go. ”

Mu Yi thought for a moment and said to Gu Duan: "Tell him for me, I'll go." ”

Qi Ying also followed: "I'll go too." ”

Gu Duan and Mu Yi looked at Qi Xuan suspiciously: What are you going to do?

Qi Xuan ignored Gu Duan, a smile rose at the corner of his mouth, and he lifted the teapot to add water to Mu Yi's cup: "I'll watch you and avoid you from doing stupid things." ”

Mu Yi gritted his teeth and grinned: "I thank you." ”

Qi Ying nodded casually, and said very generously: "You're welcome, it should be." ”
