Chapter Eighty-Nine: Entering the Palace

"The priests come every day?"

Gu Xiqian was a little puzzled, even if it was witchcraft, there was no need to come every day like this, right? And why did it only target Niangniang, and not anyone else in the house?

At this time, I saw a maid come out of the room in a hurry, and said to the maid next to her: "Quick, go and ask the priest to come over, the lady's illness has been committed again!" ”

When the other maid heard this, she immediately ran out in a panic, and Gu Xiqian took the opportunity to come to a window and poke a hole to look inside.

I saw Niangniang covering her head and yelling inside, her brows furrowed, and her expression was a little painful.

"Ahh My head hurts so much, who's going to save me! ”

The maids on the side immediately went up and held her down, "Wait a minute, the priest is already on the way, wait a minute!" ”

When the mother heard this, her body suddenly burst out with strength and pushed them away: "Hurry up, hurry up and call the priest, my head!" ”

The maids immediately opened the door and asked the gatekeeper.

Gu Xiqian watched from the sidelines, feeling a little strange, why do priests have to come every day, if there is a shortage of medicine, just let people prepare, if it is replaced by her, it will also make her bored if she comes every day.

At this time, there was a sound of footsteps in the distance, and Gu Xiqian immediately stuck to the wall and quietly poked her head out to look outside.

"Lord Priest, please come here." The maid said anxiously as she led the way.

When the maid guarding the door saw the priest coming, she immediately opened the door excitedly: "Lord priest, the lady's illness has occurred again." ”

"I see, open the door." The priest said calmly.

When the door was opened and entered, the priest looked at the lady inside, but slowly took out a bell and sat on a chair to observe.

And Niangniang was lying on the bed, covering her head and shouting, in a room, the two formed a very sharp contrast.

Gu Xiqian looked at the bell held by the priest and felt a little strange, because there was rune paper pasted on it, and the sound of shaking it was also very strange.

"Priest, help me, my head looks like it's about to explode." The mother said bitterly.

"Don't worry, the next official will be fine immediately."

I saw that the priest took out a medicine pill from his pocket, and then handed it over, only to see that the mother immediately ate it without even asking.

After the priest recited a few words, the bell shook a few times, and the mother's headache was relieved a lot.

"Hah... Hah..."

Seeing Niangniang's panting, her expression eased a lot, and the priest immediately asked, "How is Niangniang's situation now?" ”

"Much better, thanks to the priests for saving me."

Seeing that Niangniang was fine, the priest stood up and prepared to leave, and Niangniang asked, "Lord Priest, is my illness really incurable?" ”

"Niangniang, I'm not a doctor, it's useless for you to ask me about these things." After saying that, he left.

Gu Xiqian, who was on the side, muttered after seeing it: "You don't know how to treat it?" Then why did you save her? ”

After the maid walked in, after seeing that the lady was okay, she immediately settled her, and the other maid sent the priest away.

Gu Xiqian immediately followed, only to see that after a while, I saw the priest and a man walking together.

For fear of being discovered, Gu Xiqian could only follow not far behind and eavesdrop on them about love.

"How? Is the situation okay? ”

"It's okay, it looks like we're already under control, just a little bit more, and she'll promise to listen to me."

"Then the emperor's side..."

Hearing them talk about the emperor's words, Gu Xi was stunned, and sure enough, the priest had something to do with the emperor's affairs.

"Don't worry, the emperor has been witchcraft for a long time, and it won't be solved so easily, plus, what the princess ordered, Weichen will do his best." The priest replied.

At this time, Gu Xiqian felt a little strange, why did the person in front of her talk a bit like a woman? Even his body doesn't look like a normal male.

"Could it be that this man is trying to hide people's eyes?"

Gu Xiqian couldn't help but sigh at the other party's methods, so she continued to follow.

"It's better to delay the matter on Mo Xuanyin's side for a long time, otherwise, it may be too late for my side." The priest said with some embarrassment.

"I've got a little bit of a hindrance on my side, and you know you can't afford to delay too long." The man reminded.

Just when Gu Xiqian was thinking about eavesdropping closer, she accidentally stepped on the cat's tail on the side of the road.

"Meow!"

The kitten immediately ran away, and this scream caught their attention.

Gu Xiqian immediately ran away, but fortunately, they were separated by a distance, and after running to an alley, they found that the person was gone.

"What's going on? Did you just say that no one was following us? ”

"You go back first, and we'll talk about it later." The man urged.

At this time, Gu Xiqian poked her head out of the corner to look at them, only to see the two separated, and the "man" tore off the mask, it was Gu Miaoxuan.

"What?"

Looking at Gu Miaoxuan, Gu Xiqian was a little surprised, because she had always thought that she would not interfere in the affairs of Lanling Kingdom, but she did not expect that she would be in charge of their actions after Lin Yiliu left.

After returning to the Shizi Mansion, Gu Xiqian couldn't help but ponder, thinking about entering the palace the next day to face the saint.

And Liuyun on the side walked over, although she wanted to lose her temper now, but the other party was the county lord, so she had to hint at it.

"County Lord, the prince commands..."

"You don't need to say it anymore, no one can change what I decided, you go out." After saying that, he went to look at the ancient book.

At the end of the morning of the next day, Gu Xiqian came to the royal city, but when he just wanted to enter, he was stopped by the guards, even if he reported his identity as the county lord.

"County Lord, the emperor has an order, no one can go in, please go back."

"What's going on?" Gu Xiqian asked.

"Recently, the emperor has suffered from a head disease, and every morning after the end of the court, everyone except the priests is not allowed to enter." The soldier explained.

Gu Xiqian was a little puzzled, obviously the emperor had already fallen into witchcraft, why did he still control him through this means?

After a while, I saw the priest walk out of it and look at Gu Xiqian with a puzzled expression.

"County Lord Gui'an." After being stunned for a while, the priest slowly saluted and said.

Looking at his face, Gu Xiqian really had an indescribable disgust, although she was unwilling, she still respectfully returned the salute.

At this time, she saw a concubine walking out of it, and the soldiers let her go very respectfully, and Gu Xiqian suddenly had an idea.

Since I can't help it, I'll find someone to take me in.

Seeing that the other party came to the imperial city and walked around, Gu Xiqian felt that the opportunity had come, so she walked up and said, "Zhou Guifei, I haven't seen you for a long time, have you ever remembered me?" ”

Zhou Guifei looked back, it was actually Gu Xiqian, and immediately stepped back two steps and saluted: "It turned out to be the county lord, sorry, I was rude." ”

"It's okay, it's rare for the concubine to smile, could it be that she has recently won the emperor's favor?" Gu Xiqian said with a smile.

I saw that Zhou Guifei's face was a little red, but from the Zhu Hai on her head, you could get a glimpse of one or two, which was a tribute from other countries and was worth a lot of money.

Gu Xiqian's words confirmed her conjecture, the person in front of her was the one who could bring herself to the palace.

"Since it's fate to meet each other, why don't you walk with me for a while?"

The invitation made by the county lord was a rare invitation for her, so the two walked together.

"Concubine Zhou Guifei is deeply loved by the emperor, and even the tributes from other countries are rewarded, which is really enviable." Gu Xiqian said.

"Isn't the county lord a prince of the world, the two of them are a match made in heaven, and that is enviable." Zhou Guifei said. ”

I saw Gu Xiqian sigh and said, "Yes, but the prince has not returned since he went out to repair the river, and I can't go to the emperor to advise, and the marriage date is naturally not settled." ”

After speaking, he looked at Zhou Guifei, her expression was a little strange, as if she was asking for help.

However, Zhou Guifei understood what she meant: "What does the county lord mean, does he want to enter the palace?" ”

"Yes, but the emperor strictly ordered anyone to enter, and I was helpless." Gu Xiqian shook her head, "Since Concubine Zhou is embarrassed, then I have to invite someone else." With that, he prepared to leave.

"The county lord said this, doesn't he treat me as a sister?" Zhou Guifei said.

The meaning of this sentence, Gu Xiqian also understands that not only does she need her, but even she needs herself, if there is one more person in the palace to help her speak, then she will be safe, not to mention, the person in front of her is still a county lord.

"But, how can Concubine Zhou bring me in?" Gu Xiqian asked.

"Of course, in a few days, there will be a tribute from another country, and I heard that there is a lot of fine wine, if the emperor is happy, maybe he will feast everyone, and then I can bring you in." Zhou Guifei said.

Gu Xiqian suddenly understood, if it was before, of course the emperor would hold a banquet, but the current emperor is a little difficult to say, but with Zhou Guifei's words, everything will be easy.

"Then everything is up to Concubine Zhou." Gu Xiqian said respectfully.

"Be polite, and ask the county lord to say a lot of kind words in front of people in the future, and say goodbye." After speaking, Gu Xiqian left with the maid.

Seeing that things were almost arranged, Gu Xiqian immediately set off to go back to the Death Prince's Mansion to prepare.

Sure enough, two days later, I saw the envoy of a small country slowly walking into the imperial city with tribute, and the smell of wine on the carriage made people yearn for it.

Early in the morning, the emperor met with the envoy, only to see the envoy said excitedly: "Your Majesty, this is a special wine made by our country, brewed for three years, it can be described as the best quality, please smile." ”

I saw that the father-in-law on the side brought a glass, and suddenly the hall was full of wine.

"Well, you can smell the aromatic wine before you taste it, and since it is the best in the wine, I will set up a banquet to entertain everyone, in order to show the friendship of the South Vietnamese country, please."

Seeing that the emperor liked it, the envoy immediately saluted and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”

In the afternoon, Zhou Guifei came to the prince's mansion, looking at her expression, Gu Xiqian understood that the opportunity had come.
