Chapter 711: Meritorious Escort

"The prince is awake!" Lu Yao called out ecstatically.

But who knew that Gu Congyuan's first call turned out to be his father, and this time it really gave Lu Yao a slap in the face, the smile on her face couldn't help but stiffen, and she thought to herself a little depressed: "Hey! This dog man. ”

Although she knew that Gu Congyuan had changed his mind now, she never expected that he would change his face so completely, and he wanted to protect the emperor in his sleep.

Where is Lu Yao, the main room where the hero came to save the beauty halfway?

But compared to the depressed Lu Yao, the emperor was almost moved to tears, it was one thing for their father and son to have a dislike before, and after this sacrifice of their lives to save each other, it will naturally become another thing.

Even if you can't get rid of your old suspicions immediately, at least you will become more harmonious and kind than before.

Xiao Guifei was also moved to cover her heart, and shouted in a fuss: "Okay! Yuan'er now knows that he cares about his father! ”

Lu Yao laughed embarrassedly twice.

If Concubine Xiao Guifei and the emperor learned that it was Gu Congyuan who sent Sang Chaqing to the cholera court, I don't know what kind of expression he would have.

The emperor looked at Gu Congyuan in a daze for a long time, and then said with sour eyes: "Hey, Yuan'er! ”

Gu Congyuan gradually came to his senses, and when he saw Lu Yao and Xiao Guifei in front of him, he didn't feel the slightest bit of coercion, maybe women were born with a reassuring feeling, he just blinked his eyes to make his vision more sober.

But when he heard the emperor's angry voice and saw the bright yellow dragon robe, he was really frightened and his scalp was numb, and he immediately sat up.

"Shhh His movements were so violent that he suddenly touched the wound, and it hurt terribly for a while, and his brows furrowed tightly.

"Lord Wang, lie down and rest." Lu Yao stepped forward to hold him.

Gu Congyuan waved his hand and motioned for Lu Yao to help him sit up, his lips were pale, there was still a buzzing sound in his mind, and the scene of Sang Chaqing going crazy flashed in front of him, and he asked in horror, "Are you okay?" ”

Lu Yao hurriedly said: "It's okay, don't worry." ”

Gu Congyuan slowly looked up at the emperor and Concubine Xiao Guifei not far away, a little embarrassed for a while, and suddenly wanted to get close to his estranged father, but he didn't know where to start.

He licked his dry lips, and just as he was about to speak, Xiao Guifei immediately handed over a cup of tea and asked, "Thirsty?" Drink some water to moisten your throat. ”

Gu Congyuan stared at the tea cup in front of him, he couldn't help but be a little surprised, and he didn't know if it was the emotion of the rest of his life after the catastrophe or what, when he took the tea, his fingertips trembled slightly: "Thank you, concubine." ”

Now that his attitude has eased a lot, Concubine Xiao Guifei doesn't ask for anything else.

As long as Gu Congyuan can talk to her well, it doesn't matter if the rest is concerned.

Gu Congyuan moistened his throat and said slowly: "Is my father, the emperor, and the concubine okay?" ”

The emperor sat not far away, and said with a smile: "We're all fine, it's just that you ......" Halfway through his words, his eyes showed a little worry, and his eyes also fell on the wound on Gu Congyuan's shoulder.

The layers of gauze still oozed a little blood, which showed how serious the wound was that ran through the shoulder.

"As long as everyone is safe and sound, no matter how seriously injured your son is, she doesn't care." He lowered his eyes and glanced at the wound on his shoulder, such an injury was really not worth mentioning for Gu Congyuan.

When he was sixteen years old, he received many fatal blows on the battlefield, and returned to Kyoto safe and sound, and was beaten and abused by Gu Ji countless times in the Shadow Pavilion, but he also survived very tenaciously.

Now the injuries on his shoulders and hands are just a bit of flesh and skin pain for him.

Moreover, after being injured, countless imperial doctors came to treat him as soon as possible, which was really ironing for Gu Congyuan, who had not received much good treatment in the early years.

Hearing him say this, the most distressed person is Xiao Guifei, today, this concubine's pear blossoms are raining, and her smart eyes have become swollen.

She sighed and said: "Yuan'er, it is a great achievement that you saved Your Majesty this time, if you encounter any danger next time, don't rush up!" The hurt is in your body, and the pain is in your mother's heart! ”

"I see." Gu Congyuan rarely refused Concubine Xiao's proposal, but nodded honestly.

He glanced at the emperor who was looking at him cautiously, and somehow, even the king who commanded the Tiansheng Dynasty had to look at his face carefully, which really made Gu Congyuan feel a little uncomfortable, and he didn't know what he had done all these years.

While admitting the thief as his father, he has a bad attitude towards his biological father.

Today, their relationship is now tense and awkward, and this is not only caused by Xiao Guifei and the emperor.

"Father." Gu Congyuan didn't know where the strength came from, so he suddenly got up and bowed, and bowed deeply to Gu Ji.

This sudden salute directly stunned everyone present, and the emperor was afraid that Gu Congyuan would be involved in the wound, so he hurriedly got up and came over to support him, and said: "Yuan'er, get up quickly, beware of the injuries on your body!" ”

"Erchen has been fighting for many years, and this injury is nothing at all." Gu Congyuan's sword eyebrows frowned tightly, and his lips pursed into a cold arc, as if he had a lot to say, but it was difficult to say for a while.

Lu Yao knew what he wanted to say, but he didn't want to force him, and thought silently in his heart: "The coming day is long, and the father and son are not in a hurry to release their suspicions." ”

Gu Congyuan seemed to see her eyes, and he felt more confident in his heart, and slowly said to the emperor: "This time Sangcha Qing's assassination was completely unfavorable for the sons and daughters, which frightened the emperor. ”

"What do you say, silly boy? It's clear that Sang Chaqing suddenly went crazy, I think the imperial doctor and the servant should give her a good test! Let's see if there's something wrong with her braincase! Xiao Guifei didn't want to see Gu Congyuan take these blames on herself, she was afraid that the emperor would be angry, so she punished him.

"No...... he narrowed his eyes, still muttering, "I really made too many mistakes before. ”

Even the emperor and Concubine Xiao Guifei didn't know the true identity of Sang Chaqing at all.

For a long time, it was him Gu Congyuan who wanted to poison Gu Ji openly and secretly.

Even Gu Ziyan, who was eyeing the emperor, did not have any thoughts of harming the emperor, and his purpose was only for the throne, but Gu Congyuan's side was very different, he not only wanted to seek power and usurp the throne, but even wanted to give up the hard-won throne to Gu Huai in the future.

As soon as he recalled the past, Gu Congyuan suddenly realized how ridiculous his previous self was.

"Yuan'er, what are you talking nonsense?" Concubine Xiao Guifei couldn't help but look at the emperor's face, and she pulled Gu Cong away one by one, but the person was still as immobile as a mountain.

Lu Yao saw his stunned expression, and he didn't know what it was like in his heart for a while.

almost killed his biological father, and I don't know if Gu Congyuan can forgive himself?

The emperor slowly walked up to him, a touch of bright yellow came into view, and Gu Congyuan was supported by a warm and powerful hand.

"Father?" He was slightly stunned.

Gu Ji looked at him calmly, and said slowly: "Yuan'er, you don't have to feel guilty, this time it was you who protected him, how could I punish you?" Concubine Xiao doesn't have to worry, Yuan'er is a person who has made meritorious contributions, this time, not only will I not punish him, but I will also be rewarded. ”

Lu Yao and Gu Congyuan were both stunned: "Reward? ”

"Not bad." Gu Ji bowed his head slightly, in this situation, he didn't have a good impression of the prince, Gu Ziyan didn't have the opportunity to compete for favor and invite merit in front of the emperor, and the only one who could be impressive was King Cong.

Even if the emperor knows that the methods behind King Cong's back are not clean, but in the royal battle, where is there a single person?

He touched it from his arms for a long time, and suddenly handed a small jade pendant to Gu Congyuan: "This thing, temporarily handed over to you for safekeeping." ”

When everyone present saw the fish-shaped jade pendant, they all changed color in shock and gasped.

Gu Congyuan opened his mouth slightly, forgetting what to say.

"Your Majesty, give this thing to Yuan'er...... Is it appropriate? After a while, Xiao Guifei asked tremblingly, even though her tone was a little panicked and dazed, but she couldn't hide her joy.

Lu Yao also said in disbelief: "The tiger talisman of the Tiansheng Dynasty is a double fish pendant composed of two fish-shaped jade pendants, and it is difficult for Your Majesty to hand over this half of the jade pendant to the prince...... Do you want to hand over half of the world's military power to the prince? ”

She said it too bluntly, Gu Congyuan said in a slight deep voice: "Yao'er." ”

Lu Yao pursed his lips and remained silent.

Now it seems that this is what the emperor meant?

Gu Ji didn't nod or shake his head, but said nonchalantly: "Of course I won't give it to you in vain, I don't know if you still remember that I proposed the development of the Silk Road in the Western Regions before?" ”

Lu Yao and Gu Congyuan glanced at each other, and suddenly understood: "Erchen remembers." ”

"That matter has been delayed, recently Tiansheng and the Western Regions friendship, the pass trade has been urgent, once the Silk Road is successful, it will not only be of great benefit to the diplomatic relations between the two countries, but also will make an indelible contribution to the trade between the two countries." The fish-shaped jade pendant kept shaking.

This small object symbolizing military power swayed in front of Gu Congyuan, making him mixed for a while.

"Your Majesty means ......" Lu Yao looked at the emperor without saying anything.

The emperor nodded and said, "Yes, when King Cong's injury is almost healed, he will set off for the Western Regions. ”

He slowly lowered his eyelids and said in a deep voice: "King Cong, still don't accept the order?" ”
