The queen has such a plan, I don't know how many people envy the Seventh Princess and Mrs. Gu Shizi?

Therefore, such an honor, the Seventh Princess and the Lady of the Prince will not refuse.

But after the queen mother finished talking to the seventh princess and the princess, she still had no intention of letting the seventh princess and the princess leave.

The queen said that she hopes that the child can cultivate feelings from an early age and see if the personality can be compatible.

Therefore, I hope that the Seventh Princess and Mrs. Shizi can live in the palace with the little prince and the little prince.

The queen has already arranged the palace for them.

The Seventh Princess was not reluctant, so she accepted the queen's suggestion.

Although Shen Xian wanted to excuse herself, the queen didn't give her a chance to speak.

After the news that Mrs. Shizi and Xiao Shizi were left in the palace was transmitted back to Yongchang Houfu, the old man of the Gu family slapped his thigh and said to Gu Beicheng, "It's broken!" ”

Gu Beicheng also reacted immediately, adding Old Man Gu's words, "The emperor already knows?" ”

Old Man Gu looked worried, "I should already know." ”

"Let's not panic first, let's think about countermeasures first. Maybe the emperor doesn't know, and he doesn't know. ”

"But if the emperor doesn't know, why did he let the queen summon him at this time? also let Shen Xian and the prince live in the palace? ”

The old man of the Gu family and Gu Beicheng did not dare to have a fluke mentality.

In the end, Gu Beicheng suggested, "Grandpa, it's better for us to learn from the Seventh Prince." Presumably, even if the emperor knew about it, he would have dealt with us lightly. ”

"Now we have no choice, after all, the child is still in the palace?"

There was silence for a long time, and finally the old man of the Gu family nodded.

"Okay, the child is important, just do what you want!"

Gu Beicheng didn't want to do anything rebellious, but now that the matter has not started, the emperor already knows about it. It's not the best outcome, but it's not the worst outcome.

The emperor left his wife and Xiao Shizi in the palace, even if it was a warning to him, right? It was also an opportunity for him.

"Your Majesty, Gu Shizi asks to see you." Mr. Yin cautiously came in and replied.

He had already sensed that something was wrong, and the emperor had specially instructed him. If Gu Shizi comes to see him, he must return to him as soon as possible.

Sure enough, the emperor was very concerned about this matter, although he didn't show it, but Manager Yin, who had been with the emperor for a long time, could detect it.

"Let him in!"

"Yes."

Manager Yin almost trotted out, "Gu Shizi, did the emperor let you in?" ”

"There is Father-in-law Lao." Mr. Yin is still so gentlemanly and polite, and he is gentle.

"Weichen see the emperor." Gu Beicheng directly bowed to the emperor.

The emperor sneered, "Gu Shizi, I gave me a big gift." In fact, this is not an important occasion, so there is no need to make such a big gift. ”

"Besides, in my opinion, it doesn't matter how respectful and polite you are on the surface. What matters is whether the heart is faithful enough and respectful enough. ”

The emperor's words were all knocked on Gu Beicheng's heart.

Gu Beicheng's face remained unchanged, and he said neither humbly nor arrogantly, "Weichen is panicked and wants to ask the emperor for guilt." ”

"Oh? What sin are you? ”

"Your Majesty, Weichen is indeed guilty. Weichen didn't dare to ask the emperor for forgiveness, he only hoped that the emperor could give Weichen a chance to atone for his sins! ”

"Atonement?"

"Yes, Weichen didn't dare to deceive the emperor. The emperor already knows everything. ”

"Weichen originally planned to come to Meng Yichen of the Western Chu State to meet with each other. Now Weichen is willing to catch turtles in an urn with the emperor. ”

"Catching turtles in an urn?"

When the emperor said this, he chuckled lightly and said to Gu Beicheng, "You get up first!" How to catch turtles in the urn, we have to discuss it carefully. ”

"Yes, Weichen will definitely not disappoint the emperor." Gu Beicheng expressed his attitude to the emperor sincerely.

"Okay, then I'll give you another chance."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Gu Shizi and the emperor had a secret conversation for a long time, and in the end, the emperor said to Gu Beicheng, "Madam and Shizi live in the palace, you can rest assured!" The queen will arrange everything. ”

"Yes, Mrs. and the prince, it is a blessing for the little prince to be valued by the queen's mother."

"Then Weichen will retire first."

"Okay, you stand down!"

After Gu Beicheng left, the emperor thought alone for a long time, and finally sighed, and then went to the palace of the imperial concubine.

Now the imperial concubine still lives in Shuhua Yaotai.

Compared with when she was a concubine, today's imperial concubine is even less talkative.

When the emperor went up, the imperial concubine was feeding the fish in the pond.

When it's cold, it's rare for fish to swim to the surface to compete for food, even with the lure of bait.

The fish, all stay under the water, to seek that little warmth.

The imperial concubine suddenly felt that feeding the fish was boring, and put down the enamel bowl containing the bait and planned to leave.

But because the weather was too cold and it had snowed before, there was some stagnant water by the pond, which had frozen.

The imperial concubine was careless, and her feet slipped on the ice.

If in the past, when she was not pregnant, she would still be able to avoid this disaster with agility. But now, her belly is bulging, and her body has become bulky.

Whether it is falling on the ground or falling into the water, the consequences are unimaginable. If you don't do it, it's a matter of one corpse and two lives.

Yu Zhuo and Yu Run were waiting on the side, their eyes widened in fright, and they hurriedly rushed up, trying to stabilize the imperial concubine. But the two of them are too late.

At the critical moment, fortunately, the emperor rushed over and fished the imperial concubine in his arms.

It was so thrilling that everyone was in amazement.

Including the imperial concubine and the emperor himself, they are also afraid.

After their hearts calmed down, the imperial concubine said to the emperor, "Thank you for the emperor's rescue." ”

"Between you and me, why say thank you!"

The imperial concubine only said, "It's cold outside, the emperor should go inside and sit!" ”

"Yuzhuo, you go make a pot of tea." The imperial concubine commanded.

Now everyone knows the true identity of the imperial concubine. And Yuzhuo and Yurun, when they served, were even more respectful. And if there is an honor. What they are serving is the princess of the famous Western Chu Kingdom!

The emperor and the imperial concubine sat side by side in the hall, but neither spoke to each other.

Yu Zhuo quickly brought the tea, interrupting the quiet and awkward situation.

"The emperor tasted this flower tea, but it was delicious." The imperial concubine said this, and took a cup of tea and drank it to herself.

The emperor also picked up the teacup and tasted it, and after tasting it, he said, "Is it flower tea?" ”

"Yes!"

"Is it rose tea?" The emperor asked again.

"That's right, it's rose tea."

"This is a flower tea unique to the Western Chu Kingdom." The imperial concubine said again.

The emperor nodded, "Yes, I remember that the Western Chu Kingdom is rich in roses. Among the gifts sent by the Western Chu Kingdom this year, there are also rose dew and rose gel? ”

"This rose dew is for bathing, and the rose gel is for snacks." The imperial concubine added.

"Then I asked the people in the imperial dining room to make some rose cakes for you."

"Thank you for your kindness, but I don't like to eat rose cakes. I like even more, the hawthorn angelica cake of the Tanglin Kingdom. ”

"Hawthorn angelica cake?"

"Okay, since you like it, then I'll ask the Imperial Dining Room to make you one every day."

"Thank you for the emperor's kindness, but you don't have to. No matter how good it is, if you eat too much, you will get tired. What's more, although this hawthorn is appetizing, if you eat too much, it will also hurt your stomach. If it backfires, it's not good. ”

The emperor was silent for a moment, and then asked, "Does the imperial concubine have anything to say to me?" I always feel that the imperial concubine has something to say. ”

"It's counterproductive, what are you trying to warn me?"

The imperial concubine smiled slightly, "The emperor is too careful, and the concubines are just talking about things." ”

"The New Year is approaching, how does the emperor plan to celebrate the festival?" The imperial concubine asked again.

"The festivals in this palace have always been in accordance with the rules. It should be the same as in previous years! It's boring. The emperor said with a melancholy face.

"It's good to be boring! After all, in this palace, there is still a search for stability. If you blindly pursue excitement, you will abandon the basics. ”

As he spoke, Yurun said back and forth, "Your Majesty, Imperial Concubine Niangniang, it's time for lunch now, do you want to set the meal now?" ”

The emperor glanced at the imperial concubine. The imperial concubine said, "Since the emperor is here, it is better to stay and have lunch!" ”

The emperor smiled implicitly, "It's okay." ”

Mu Lingxuan didn't expect that Chu Shuyao, who had always been cold to him, would be able to have lunch with him so calmly today.

What a rare gentleness and virtuousness! But he always felt in his heart that something was wrong.

In the Western Chu Kingdom, the secret guard reported to Meng Yichen about the affairs of the Tanglin Kingdom.

The secret guard specially reported to Meng Yichen that the emperor of the Tanglin Kingdom had placed the wife of Yongchang Houfu and Xiao Shizi under house arrest in the palace.

And Gu Beicheng also went to the imperial study of the emperor of Tanglin Kingdom, and talked secretly for a long time.

After the secret guard finished replying, Meng Yichen's subordinates said, "Lord Wang, this Gu Beicheng, is it credible or not. The prince has to keep an eye on it! If it was like Mu Lingchen of the Tanglin Kingdom back then, then we would have suffered heavy losses! ”

Meng Yichen sneered confidently, "This time! This king will not let them pit me. ”

"Lord Wang, what do you mean by this?"

"The time agreed with Gu Beicheng is almost up. When the time comes, we just need to bluff outside the Imperial City of the Western Chu Kingdom. There's no need to rush inside. ”

"Let Gu Beicheng and Mu Lingxuan kill each other. If Gu Beicheng lied to us, it would not hinder us much. Gu Beicheng didn't lie to us, so let them fight each other, and finally we entered the imperial city. ”

"Yes. Subordinates understand. ”

"That's right. But got in touch with Princess Yan? ”

"We have been contacted, but Princess Yan will not listen to our advice. Princess Yan said that although she didn't want to stay in Tanglin Kingdom, she didn't want to return to Western Chu Kingdom either. ”

"What did you say?" Meng Yichen was annoyed.

"The prince is angry, and his subordinates are just relaying the words of the princess."
