Chapter Eighty-Eight: Gu Lao's Awesomeness (Second Update)

To say that Jiang is still old and spicy, Old Man Gu didn't mention Shun Concubine at all, but mentioned the things that the emperor cared about the most. Immediately caught the emperor off guard.

Since Old Man Gu stepped into the South Study, he has been thinking about how if Old Man Gu opens his mouth to talk about Shun Concubine's guilt, how can he follow his words to Shun Concubine and deal with the sins of Old Man Gu and the courtiers. But Old Man Gu didn't mention a word from beginning to end, but talked about An Huajin and Gu Qingyan's marriage.

This made him very unbearable.

His buttocks were almost unstable, he woke up and looked at Old Man Gu, "You want to go to Nanyang?" ”

"yes." Old Man Gu smiled, "I heard that the old in-laws are in very bad health, and the old minister plans to go and see him, but I haven't seen him for many years." The children are all older, and after the engagement was made, it has been eight years since they were separated. Now I think the two children get along well, things can't be dragged on like this, right? ”

The emperor was silent.

Old Man Gu smiled, "The old minister knows that His Majesty is very concerned about Huai'an and the little girl of the An family, and he has worked hard for His Majesty for so many years." These two children will be settled as soon as possible, and your majesty will be at peace as soon as possible, isn't it? Besides, Lao Chen has not been to Nanyang yet, and he also wants to go to Nanyang to have a look. ”

The emperor felt bitter in his heart, "Those two children, the time they got along is still short, two months ago, there were conflicts, fights, Xiao An'er also ran back to Nanyang, although I don't know why she came to Beijing again, but it still needs time to run in, right?" ”

Old Man Gu smiled, "Which husband and wife, aren't they all fighting?" When the old minister first came, he also found that the queen was waiting at the door of the south study, didn't she have a temper and fight with His Majesty? Your Majesty doesn't want to see the queen? Husbands and wives in this world are all the same, and unmarried couples are similar. Fight today, and you'll be fine tomorrow. Children are no different from us. ”

The emperor was even more bitter in his heart, and felt that Old Man Gu was really powerful, this was between words, so he put him in, but he still had to follow his words, and he couldn't tell him apart, after all, everyone knew what was going on today.

He pondered in his heart, if he agreed to Old Man Gu's request and let him go to Nanyang, then the marriage between An Huajin and Gu Qingyan would really have no room for turnaround, and it would be a certainty.

It's about the country he has been sitting for 20 years, it's about the An family, it's about the Nanyang Army, he has Chu Yan, and he still has the heart of establishing a prince, and he really doesn't want them to conclude this marriage contract.

But he can't refuse in one go, if he refuses, he has to show the sincerity to shut up Old Man Gu.

What he said today to go to Nanyang, he didn't necessarily have to go, it was nothing more than to use this to indirectly support An Huajin and make the decision.

The emperor weighed it again and again, and felt that he couldn't take it lightly no matter what happened today, so he said simply, "Gu Lao, I think that the marriage between Huai'an and Xiao An'er is not in a hurry, the two children are too young." And now that I am reunited, he doesn't have time to get married, so it's better to wait first, you are not in a hurry to go to Nanyang, and then talk about it after this year. ”

Old Man Gu nodded, and he was as good as a stream, "It's okay, listen to Your Majesty." ”

The emperor said, "I know that Xiao An'er has been wronged, and Concubine Shun is pregnant with my child after all. Although I have a lot of heirs, before the child lands, I can't ignore the dragon heir in her belly at this time. Indeed, the sin he commits is selfish revenge, and it is not permissible. So, you see, how about I dethrone her title? ”

Old man Gu sighed in his heart, how many emperors are not guaranteed in the evening, when His Majesty was young, although he did not make great achievements, but he still has merit, now, it is really ......

He quietly proposed, "Only abolishing the title is not enough to convince the public, Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, and you should set an example." If everyone follows the example of the concubine, takes revenge with selfishness, does something wrong, and only suffers a few minor mistakes, then there is no way to follow, everyone does not follow the rules, and the world is in chaos? Especially why did the little county lord of An have a personal enmity with Concubine Shun in the first place? Isn't it to share your Majesty's worries? Shilibao is reckless, but colluded with the six princes and the Fang family, his heart is hateful, to get rid of the Nanyang army, to make chaos in the court, An Xiaojun Lord has merit, but because of His Majesty's love for beauty, and let her be persecuted, if the matter is transmitted back to Nanyang, Your Majesty can imagine, I am afraid that it will chill the hearts of millions of soldiers at the border. ”

The emperor's face turned pale, and he added ruthlessly, "Abolish the title of Shun Concubine and send her to the cold palace to raise her baby." ”

"Your Majesty, it's better not to see her again." Old Man Gu is a ruthless person, if he were not a ruthless person, he would not have maintained the Gu family's prosperity for decades, lifting his weight in the court, cultivating a Gu Qingyan, and countless outstanding descendants of the Gu family.

The emperor stood up quickly, "Old Gu, do you want my life?" ”

Old Man Gu also stood up and gave his hand sincerely, "Your Majesty, you are serious." You must know that the identity of the little county lord of An is less than ten concubines. How precious is the lord of An Xiaojun, now this is a matter of no life, and the concubine is pregnant with His Majesty's heir, so she will not give Bai Aya poisonous wine. If Lord An Xiaojun folds on the way to Beijing, Your Majesty, think about it, how about the King of Nanyang? How about the Nanyang Army? I'm afraid that Nanliang's treacherous plan will succeed and raise troops to attack, and my Great Chu disaster will begin. The old minister is Your Majesty, for Da Chu, persuade Your Majesty, there are thousands of beauties in the world, why not a concubine? ”

The emperor could not say a word, and sat back in his chair.

It wasn't until this moment, when he had been in power for twenty years, that he really saw the power of this old man Gu, who had always been respectful to him. The Gu family is the head of the world's families, he knows that he can't be underestimated, and he must balance the relationship between the major families and the imperial power, he has always boasted of doing a good job, but today, let him really see that he, the emperor, when he ignored it, in front of the Gu family in front of the old man Gu, he couldn't be hard at all.

However, Old Man Gu couldn't see the slightest persecution of him, he only said that these were loyal words, but he couldn't help but listen.

"Your Majesty, think about it, and the old minister will not bother Your Majesty." Old man Gu accepted it when he saw it.

The emperor waved his hand, and was in no mood to say anything else.

Old Man Gu walked out of the south study, shook his sleeves, and walked out of the palace slowly.

At the gate of the palace, he met Chu Yan who entered the palace.

Chu Yan arched his hand at him.

Old man Gu, the elder of the Three Dynasties, used to be half of the emperor's master, and the emperor gave three points of courtesy, and the princes had to salute him when they saw him.

Old Man Gu smiled peacefully, "Is His Royal Highness the Seventh entering the palace for the matter of Lord An Xiaojun?" If that's the case, you don't have to go. The old minister just went to see His Majesty, lest you go again, Your Majesty has a rebellious heart, and feels that everyone is persecuting him. It's counterproductive. ”

Chu Yan was indeed grateful for this, "Thank you Elder Gu, since you said so, I won't be an eyesore in front of my father." ”

Old Man Gu nodded, got into the carriage, and went back to Gu's house.

Chu Yan watched Old Man Gu's carriage go away, thinking about the Gu family, and it seemed that he was really satisfied with his cousin. Old Man Gu has come forward today, so their marriage contract may not be firm.

He stood there for a moment, then stopped entering the palace, turned around and left the palace again.

Not long after Old Man Gu left the palace, the emperor reluctantly issued a holy decree, from today on, Concubine Shun deposed the title, entered the cold palace, and raised a baby in the cold palace.

He was afraid that something would happen to Shun Concubine's child, so he still instructed Father-in-law Zhang to send two experienced grandmothers to the cold palace to take care of Hua Ruyu.

After the holy decree arrived at Hanxiang Palace, Hua Ruyu was shocked, she never expected that it would be such a serious punishment. She thought that with the emperor protecting her, she would be deprived of the title of the head of the nine concubines at most. But I didn't expect that not only that, but also to pull out the Hanxiang Palace and enter the cold palace.

She cried out, "I want to see Your Majesty." ”

Gonggong Zhang waved his hand expressionlessly, ignored the concubine, and ordered, "Please go to the cold palace." ”

The people who were waiting rushed forward, helped Hua Ruyu, and dragged her to the cold palace. Hua Ruyu is naturally unwilling, she has martial arts and wants to do it.

Gonggong Zhang looked at her and said, "Your Majesty has sent two grandmothers, and they will be saved from death on the face of Niangniang's meritorious service to Your Majesty and her heirs in this month." If the mother resists forcefully and hurts the child in her belly, no one will be able to protect you. ”

Hua Ruyu knew how important this child was at this time, and suddenly behaved.

Zhang Gonggong took someone to personally send Hua Ruyu to the cold palace, according to the emperor's instructions, there was no yang and yin disobedience, and the cold palace was very arranged, although it is still not as simple as the Hanxiang Palace, but it can also live and raise the fetus with peace of mind.

After Gonggong Zhang finished this matter, he beat the people who were waiting in the cold palace fiercely, and then went back to the south study to report to the emperor.

The emperor knew that Hua Ruyu was not noisy or noisy, and knew that Gonggong Zhang had arranged a cold palace and did not treat his beauties harshly, so he felt more comfortable and was more satisfied with Gonggong Zhang.
