After shopping for a while, a little palace maid suddenly ran behind the three of them, and after inviting Ye to the emperor, she hurriedly shouted: "Your Majesty, there is a big incident in the East Palace, and the crown princess needs to go back to preside over the overall situation!" ”

"Oh? What's the big deal? When the emperor heard this, he asked with great interest.

The palace maid looked up at Gu Yuetong on the side, and said in a low voice: "It's Concubine Li, just today, she was diagnosed by the imperial doctor and had a happy pulse, and it has been two months." ”

Joy? When Gu Yuetong heard this, the whole person immediately staggered back a few steps, and her face instantly turned pale.

When Gu Ruoxi heard this, she couldn't help but turn her head and look at her with pity.

It turned out that she was the crown princess with infinite beauty. Life in this palace is not so smooth!

"It's a happy event!" At this moment, the emperor laughed and said, "The prince has been empty on his knees for the past two years, and now Concubine Li is easily pregnant, inform the queen that she must be comforted and cared for more!" ”

"Slaves obey!" Gao Gonggong didn't know where to come out of nowhere at this time, so he hurriedly answered, and then turned around and retreated. Draw with a orchestra pit.

After the emperor finished his order, he noticed Gu Yuetong's pale face, thinking that he could see Gu Ruoxi today, or relying on the credit of this daughter-in-law, at that moment, he stroked and said: "Crown princess, don't be too sad, child, there will always be." Concubine Li can be pregnant, that is also your good governance of the East Palace, I will reward you heavily! ”

"Thank you, father, this is what a daughter-in-law should do." Gu Yuetong said with a pale face, barely squeezing out a smile.

"Okay, since there is a happy event in the East Palace, then you should go back to Zhang Luo quickly!" The emperor waved his hand and said.

"Yes, Father." Gu Yuetong answered, turned around and was about to leave.

Gu Ruoxi hurriedly grabbed her sleeve and said worriedly: "Sister, your face is very abnormal?" Are you feeling a little uncomfortable? Sister send you back! ”

Gu Yuetong struggled for a while, didn't break free, and hurriedly said: "No need, I'm fine, can you accompany the emperor here?" ”

"There are a lot of guards around the emperor, and I don't need to accompany him, but you, sister, are so pale, which makes my sister very worried." Gu Ruoxi firmly grasped Gu Yuetong's arm and didn't let go, and said with a worried look on her face as much as possible: "Besides, the Queen Mother told me to accompany my sister more, but now you want me to abandon you and accompany the emperor, aren't you afraid that the Queen Mother will be angry in her heart when she finds out?" ”

"Queen Mother, she won't blame you!" Gu Yuetong struggled desperately again, but Gu Ruoxi's hand grabbed her firmly like a pair of handcuffs, and she couldn't break free at all, Gu Yuetong was helpless, so she had to give the emperor on the side a look.

When the emperor saw this scene, he smiled and said, "Xi'er, I didn't expect you to be so worried about your sister

Sister, but there are a lot of affairs in the East Palace, and there are many people, so you can't help if you go, so it's better to accompany me here for a stroll. ”

Even if Gu Ruoxi didn't know the absurd things in front of the Imperial Garden that night, he had heard a little about the absurd actions of the emperors in history. Knowing that these individuals are used to being self-respecting, they are interested in coming together, and they dare to do ridiculous things no matter where they are, she never wants to stay alone with the emperor!

However, this man was the emperor, and she didn't dare to say anything nasty to make him angry.

After thinking about it and thinking about it, Gu Ruoxi slowly let go of Gu Yuetong's hand, and said with a worried face: "Sister, your face is so ugly, where does my sister still have the heart to visit this garden?" is full of thoughts on you, what if you offend the emperor? Sister! ”

"Xi'er, don't worry, no matter what you say or do, I won't blame you!" The Emperor spoke up.

"Really?" Hearing this, Gu Ruoxi finally turned his head to look at the emperor, and said with a smile: "Then, the courtiers want to ask the emperor to promise the courtiers to go back to Cining Palace!" ”

Speaking of which, she just didn't stay with the emperor first.

The emperor's face sank, but it was not easy to attack.

At this moment, Gu Yuetong on the side hurriedly smiled and said, "Xi'er, you see that my face is very good, where do I look like I am sick?" Concubine Li is pregnant with the prince's flesh and blood, and it is too late for the palace to be happy! Don't be in a hurry to go back to Cining Palace, you see that the weather is so sunny, you can accompany the emperor here! That's it! After speaking, Gu Yuetong didn't give Gu Ruoxi a chance to refute, turned around and strode away. It was as if a hungry wolf was chasing her behind her.

And the palace maid who took her cloak did not come back until this moment.

"Sister!" Gu Ruoxi shouted, busy chasing after her, but at this moment, the emperor suddenly grabbed her hand.

Gu Ruoxi immediately shook off the emperor as if he had been electrocuted, took several steps back, stared at the emperor with a wary face, and said, "Your Majesty, what do you want to do?" ”

When the emperor saw her appearance, his originally good mood immediately changed.

This woman is very different from Gu Yuetong!

That night, although he was drunk, but he had a little impression of what he had done, he knew that he saw a woman at the entrance of the imperial garden, he thought she was Gu Ruoxi, so he pounced on it fiercely, and afterwards, he knew that the woman was not Gu Ruoxi, but his daughter-in-law, the crown princess.

The next day, the emperor ordered someone to inquire in Kunning Palace, and learned that Gu Ruoxi had stayed in Kunning Palace and never went out, but the crown princess went to the imperial garden in the boredom of that day, and he immediately understood that he had made a mistake.

But he doesn't regret it!

It's just that when I think about it, I feel a little disgusting.

And now, the sun was shining and the garden was fragrant, and the emperor stood in the sunlight, looking fixedly at the woman with a wary expression standing opposite him, and suddenly it became clear

One thing in vain.

The crown princess is the crown princess, Gu Ruoxi is Gu Ruoxi, each of them has her own unique charm, and she also has her own temper, even Min Shu at the beginning, and she also has her own unique gentleness, which others do not have.

He wanted Gu Ruoxi to replace her mother Min-sook, which was simply impossible.

However, Gu Ruoxi's vigilance made the emperor very unhappy and unwilling!

There are really women in the world who dare to refuse him! The previous one was Ding Minshu, and now this one is Gu Ruoxi. The frustration that he had never felt before hit the emperor's heart, which made him ignore everything and remember only one thing.

That is; This woman in front of him, he must get it!

As for what would happen after he got it, he didn't think about it. It is nothing more than enjoying the loss of this conquest.

The emperor looked at Gu Ruoxi fixedly, and said in a deep voice: "Xi'er, I just want you to accompany you for a walk, it's nothing, what are you doing with such a big reaction?" ”

"There are 3,000 beauties in the emperor's harem, countless concubines, and I don't know how many people want to accompany you, why do you want your courtiers to accompany you?" Gu Ruoxi glanced at the emperor and said firmly: "The courtiers still have something to do, so they will retire first." As he spoke, he blessed himself and prepared to retreat.

The emperor's face changed when he landed: "I'm so good to say, you just don't want to, right?" ”

Gu Ruoxi's steps were immediately retracted, she raised her eyes and glanced at the emperor, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, you should know that there are some things that cannot be forced. ”

"Can't force it?" When the emperor heard this, he smiled and said, "I am just reluctant, so what can I do?" ”

When Gu Ruoxi heard this, she couldn't help but change her face, and she was about to answer, when at this moment, a clear voice suddenly sounded behind the two: "Son, see your father!" I've seen Miss Gu Er! ”

Gu Ruoxi turned around sharply, and saw the fourth prince Xuanyuan Chun striding over from not far away, followed by two guards.

Since returning from Qingyun Mountain that day, Gu Ruoxi has never seen the calf of the queen of the dynasty again, and after a few days, he has become more and more handsome and chic.

The emperor also saw Xuanyuan Chun, and his face couldn't help but darken: "Chun'er, why are you here?" ”

"The queen mother is unwell today, and she has been having a headache since she got up, and she can't ask a lot of imperial doctors." Xuanyuan Chun lowered his head and said respectfully: "Erchen has been with his mother in the dormitory for a long time, and when he saw that she was looking forward to his father's visit, it happened that some palace people said that his father was visiting the imperial garden, so Erchen came boldly and hoped that his father would atone for his sins." ”

"The queen is sick?" When the emperor heard this, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

If this was true, he really had to go and see.

"Yes! I have already asked Mrs. Xu, Mrs. Lin and others to diagnose the pulse. Xuanyuan Chun said in a low voice.

When the emperor heard this, he looked at Xuanyuan Chun fixedly

Two eyes, just hate the itchy teeth! Didn't he just want Gu Ruoxi to accompany him to visit the imperial garden? Why are so many people coming to stir up the situation?

If he insists on his opinion, maybe Xuanyuan Jingxi will come back in a while.

Thinking of this, the emperor sighed helplessly, and said very unwillingly: "Then in this case, I will go to Kunning Palace to take a look at the queen, but it is the first time for Miss Gu Er to visit the imperial garden, Chun'er, how about you accompany her here?" ”

"Sons obey orders!" Xuanyuan Chun hurriedly nodded in agreement.

The emperor glanced at him, then turned his head to look at Gu Ruoxi, and finally left with his hands behind his back.

Gao Gonggong hurriedly followed.

When they left, Gu Ruoxi breathed a long sigh of relief, she turned around, solemnly invited Xuanyuan Chun to a leaf, and said, "Thank you Your Highness for breaking the siege today." ”

"It doesn't matter." When Xuanyuan Chun heard this, he smiled lowly, revealing a good-looking little tiger tooth and said: "It's just a matter of passing to relieve you of the siege, and being able to invite your father and emperor to visit your mother is the main purpose of Your Highness." ”

When Gu Ruoxi heard this, he smiled low and said, "No matter what, I want to thank you." ”

Xuanyuan Chun is the queen's faction, but the queen has a bad relationship with Gu Yuetong, and it is indeed commendable that the fourth prince can help her regardless of his previous suspicions. How could Gu Ruoxi not even say a word of thanks?

"You're funny." When Xuanyuan Chun heard this, he smiled at Gu Ruoxi and said, "Okay, are you going to continue shopping?" Or do you want me to send you back to Kunning Palace? ”

"Let's go back to Kunning Palace!" Gu Ruoxi didn't want to think about it, she didn't want to stay in this imperial garden for a moment.

Xuanyuan Chun nodded.

The two of them walked in the direction of Kunning Palace.

Xie Yu glanced at her and said with a smile: "Second Miss Gu, I heard that my father is going to agree to your marriage to His Royal Highness King Jing, it's really gratifying!" ”

When Gu Ruoxi heard this, a trace of shame couldn't help but appear on her face, she lowered her head and said in a low voice: "The holy decree hasn't been issued yet, the fourth prince, don't make fun of me." ”

"I definitely didn't mean to laugh at you." Xuanyuan Chun smiled slightly, glanced at Gu Ruoxi, but sighed and said: "I used to be the fiancé of the second miss, but now I have no relationship with you, now it is really disappointing to say!" ”

When Gu Ruoxi heard this, he raised his eyes and glanced at Xuanyuan Chun, seeing the smile on his face, where was the look of loss? This is clearly a joke about her.

"Fourth prince, you are young and promising, handsome and chic, I don't know how many daughters will marry you in the future, so don't make fun of me here." Gu Ruoxi smiled slightly and said.

"Broken head?" When Xuanyuan Chun heard this, he burst out laughing: "Second Miss Gu, you are too exaggerated!" There are a lot of people in this capital who like my Uncle Jing, so you, Princess Jing, should be more worried! By the way, I heard a little gossip. ”

"What's the news?" When Gu Ruoxi heard this, he immediately asked.

Xuanyuan Chun glanced at her, and suddenly leaned over and whispered a few words in her ear. Gu Ruoxi's eyes immediately widened in surprise: "What did you say?" Your Majesty, does he want to regret it? ”

Xuanyuan Chun nodded, and said in a low voice: "Anyway, he hasn't moved for a long time now, and he also complains about Uncle Jing, he forced his father to agree to your marriage, and he didn't choose a better day." Preferred on the first day of the Lunar New Year, these civil and military officials all went to court after the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, and the emperor suppressed this matter for reason! If you press it, it is easy to have accidents, and you have many dreams at night, Miss Gu Er, you know! ”

When Gu Ruoxi heard this, she couldn't help but feel a little upset, on that day, she thought that her marriage with Xuanyuan Jingxi had been decided, where could she have imagined that the emperor would go back on her word!

"By the way, Miss Gu Er, even if my father is going back on his word, he won't come openly, he will only force you or Uncle Jing to take the initiative to quit this family business." Xuanyuan Chun admonished: "So. Listen to my advice, and before things have developed to that point, hurry up and think of a way! ”

When Gu Ruoxi heard this, he first nodded, then glanced at Xuanyuan Chun suspiciously, and said, "Then why are you telling me this?" ”

Looking at her sparkling eyes, Xuanyuan Chun turned his head a little uncomfortably and said, "We have met before, I want to help you, can't you?" ”

"Absolutely!" Gu Ruoxi heard this. was stunned for a moment, and then quickly replied with a smile.

Just kidding, it's good to have one more friend, even if it's on the surface. Gu Ruoxi will not be stupid and naïve. thought that Xuanyuan Chun really wanted to help her, but she would not refuse this kindness.

"Alright, let's go! I'm going to go back to see my mother later! Xuanyuan Chun said.

Gu Ruoxi raised her eyebrows when she heard this: "But when you go back, didn't you disturb the emperor to accompany your mother?" ”

"You're thinking too much." When Xuanyuan Chun heard this, he sneered and said: "When my father goes to visit my mother, at most he will sit in front of her bed, and then he will go back to work on his own. ”

Hearing this, Gu Ruoxi nodded and said, "What you said is also right, it is so reasonable. ”

How many concubines in this deep palace are difficult to see the emperor until they die, and it is already a great blessing for the queen to be greeted by the emperor when she is sick, how can you ask for anything else? Doesn't that make people feel greedy enough?

"And. I disturbed my father's visit to the garden today, although he didn't say anything, but he must have sent someone to keep an eye on this side, if I go back late, he will call me over and scold me, saying that His Royal Highness does not respect his mother and does not know how to be filial in front of her bed. Xuanyuan Chun pursed his lips and said unconcernedly.

Hearing this, Gu Ruoxi nodded hurriedly and said, "Since that's the case, let's go faster!" If it affects the palace of the four princes

was punished by the emperor, this is not mine. ”

Hearing this, Xuanyuan Chun smiled slightly, didn't say anything more, and couldn't help but speed up his steps.

He felt that it was very interesting to talk to the second lady of the Gu family in front of him.

After a while, Kunning Palace arrived.

Xuanyuan Chun didn't just leave after sending it to the palace gate. Instead, he went in and asked the Queen Mother for a leaf before leaving.

When he left, the Queen Mother smiled at Gu Ruoxi and asked, "Why was it that when you went, you were accompanied by the crown princess, and when you came back, you became the fourth prince?" ”

Gu Ruoxi didn't hide it, and told the things in the garden one by one.

The Queen Mother didn't expect her to be so honest, her eyes couldn't help flashing, but she smiled: "It's okay, as long as Pingye comes back!" With that, she turned to Aunt Jingyue and instructed, "Isn't the queen sick?" You go and prepare a few supplements and send them to Kunning Palace in person, and Concubine Li's side, you also send a little maid to send some supplements. ”

"Yes, sissy." When Jing Yue heard this, she immediately responded with a smile, turned around and retreated.

The Queen Mother smiled at Gu Ruoxi, motioned for her to sit down beside her, and asked, "Xi'er, have you lived in the palace for a few days, are you bored?" ”

Gu Ruoxi shook his head and said, "Back to the Queen Mother's words, it's not boring, it's just ......."

"Just what?" The Queen Mother couldn't help asking.

Gu Ruoxi raised her eyes and glanced at her, and said: "Back to the Queen Mother, according to the rules, the courtiers should be more filial by your side, but the courtier's mother lived in the Qingyun Nunnery some time ago, and I heard that she was sick, and my father sent someone to pick her up in the nunnery a few days ago, and I think she should come back in the past two days......

"Understood, do you want to go back and see your parents?"

Gu Ruoxi nodded.
