Chapter 047 Wind and Rain
sent away An Taifu, and the emperor left Yan Yu alone.
"Miss Yu should also know Ning'er's situation." Gu Nian opened his mouth first, "I don't want to embarrass you, I'm just ......"
"I know." Yan Yu smiled, "This family affair was decided by the first queen and my mother, and now that the ancestors have passed away, we naturally have to follow their wishes." ”
Everyone says that Gu Nian is lustful, and there are countless beauties in the harem, but in fact, he loves the first queen very much, and it is impossible for the emperor to retire from the family affairs she set.
"If only you could think so." Gu Nian sighed softly, "Ah Wan's relationship with your mother was really good back then. ”
Gu Nian talked about the events of the year, and paused when he talked about Xu Su marrying Xu Jin, "Back then, Xiang Yang, who was General Xiang, still complained about me, and I couldn't help it, your mother and your father were in love, and Ah Wan kept interceding, can I not agree." ”
Gu Nian probably hadn't talked to anyone else about the past, and sometimes it was upside down, obviously thinking of where to say, but Yan Yu still listened patiently.
Referring to Xiang Yang, Yan Yu remembered what she heard before, she was going to Xuanji Valley tomorrow, where it was the Tongqi realm, she had to go to see her brother, although she wrote a letter, she was afraid that her brother would think she was joking.
The contradiction between the Xiang family and the Yan family will never disappear, and the Yan family doesn't care, but once the Xiang family forms an alliance with the Shen family......
Was her brother's death in the previous life really just because she was going to save Gu Chaoci?
"Speaking of which, General Xiang has also returned to Beijing, and I am ashamed of him." Gu Nian said.
Yan Yu remembered this, the war in Nanguan was not settled, and the emperor sent Xiang Yang back, sealed the title, and wanted to trap him in Jiejing, but the fox for decades, how could it be said that he could be trapped if he was trapped, and the military power of the Xiang family was not so easy to take back.
"Your brother incorporated the old Tongqi department into his subordinates, and the old Tongqi department has a lot of problems, if it weren't for his insistence, I wouldn't want to take this risk. Now a lot of people are staring, waiting for your brother to make a mistake. ”
Yan Yu didn't expect Gu Nian to say so directly, she was stunned for a while, Gu Nian looked at her and smiled lovingly, "Do you know why I brought Xiang Yang back?" ”
Yan Yu shook his head.
"I'm scared, I'm afraid." Gu Nian said.
"The emperor is the Ninety-Five Supreme, and the whole world is not the king's land, what is there to be afraid of."
"I'm afraid of a repeat of the tragedy." Gu Nian was silent for a while, "I'm old." ”
Yan Yu smiled, "The emperor's longevity is higher than the sky, why do you say that you are old?" ”
"You kid." Gu Nian also smiled, "Go back, I'm going back to the palace too." ”
Gu Nian knew that he had said too much today, so he didn't continue to say, he didn't know why he said so much, but the reason was nothing more than that he still liked this child, as for why he liked it, maybe it was because she was the child of the old man, maybe he felt guilty about her, or maybe it was just because she was about to become his daughter-in-law.
Yan Yu looked at her back and was slightly distracted, there are still three years, whether it is long or not, and whether it is short or not.
In her eyes, Gu Nian can be regarded as a Ming Jun, but the mistakes he made in the last two years are irreparable.
It's not just that Gu Weining's death hit him too hard, but it's really because he is old, what Gu Nian did in the two years after Gu Weining's death is really incomprehensible, whether it is asking her to hold a ** with Gu Weining at the beginning, or later deposing Fu Yun, or going to Zhou Guo's house with his favorite daughter, or conniving at Gu Weining's gang, and finally bringing Gu Chao's edict back, it is incomprehensible.
After returning to Yan Mansion to rest, Yan Yu set off for Xuanji Valley early the next morning.
That night, the old lady became seriously ill after coming to the East Hospital, and the imperial doctor couldn't help it, so it was not difficult for Yan Yu to go out under the pretext of going to Machuan to buy medicine.
The breeze accompanied by a drizzle, like a burst of wet hazy smoke, shrouded the early morning of Jiejing in a shadow, Yan Yu was blocked in front of her carriage outside the west gate, Yan Yu opened the curtain and looked over.
The man was wearing a purple moire brocade robe, lying on the back of a horse, playing with the horsewhip in his hand, the corners of his mouth slightly hooked, and he happened to look at her for a long time at this moment.
"Lord Zhou?" Yan Yu was a little suspicious, looking at Zhou Xingyu's appearance, he was obviously waiting for her.
Zhou Xingyu straightened up and said quietly, "Miss Yu asked me to come, but I was too late." ”
Yan Yu was even more puzzled, "When did I ask you out?" ”
"Found it." Zhou Xingyu came to a sentence without a beginning or an end.
"She's there too?" Yan Yu replied without a beginning or a tail.
One understands the other party, the other guesses things quite accurately, and it is effortless to speak, but the breeze on the carriage is confused, so Yan Yu told the family that he was going to go to Machuan to buy medicine, and it may take several days to come back, but now he doesn't want to go with Lord Zhou.
This is somewhat out of line, they believe in their own girls, but if they fall into the ears of others, they are afraid that it will become an elopement, Lan Chun wanted to open his mouth to remind him, but Zhou Xingyu opened his mouth.
"The Yan family is also a family of Jiangmen, let me see how your horseback riding skills are." As he spoke, he turned over and got on his horse, raised his eyes to look at the red horse on the side, and motioned for Yan Yu to go up.
The color of this horse's hair is bright and smooth, and at a glance it is a good horse that is hard to find, Yan Yu did not be polite to her, got out of the carriage, turned over on the horse neatly, and said with the winter and spring: "You go back first, there is no need to worry about Lord Zhou." ”
She didn't plan to take them with her, even if she arrived in Zoumachuan, she wouldn't let them follow her to Xuanji Valley, but now she just had a reason not to let them go.
"But ......"
Fudong and Lanchun spoke at the same time, the former wanted to follow to see what Yan Yu was going to do, and the latter was worried about Yan Yu's safety, but no matter which one it was, there was no chance to say the whole sentence now, and Yan Yu had already left without knowing what to do.
Zhou Xingyu smiled slightly, said that he didn't have to worry and left.
As the two figures went away, the rain in the capital city became heavier and heavier, and a violent storm was brewing.
By noon, the future crown princess Yan Yu and the Nine Emperor Princes had a private meeting outside the Huaishui Pavilion during the Hua Dynasty Festival.
The painting was indeed made by Gu Chaoci, and he had nothing to say, but the truth was not what they thought.
When he met Yan Yu outside the Huaishui Pavilion that day, he didn't know that person was his future third sister-in-law, and he would paint that picture just to facilitate Zi'an to find someone, he just wanted to repay her kindness, but he didn't want to end up self-defeating and hurt his benefactor.
Now he can't explain anything, after all, he can't tell what happened that night, not because he was afraid of what would happen to him, but since Yan Yu didn't reveal her identity that day, she didn't mention it when she saw him later, presumably because she didn't want others to know that she had helped him.
Yan Yu's willingness to help him does not mean that he is willing to get involved in the battle for succession.
He is now grounded in the palace at this age, and there is no way to know Yan Yu's thoughts.
