"Get out, this king wants to rest." Wei Qianlan avoided answering Ye Yuan's words and drove people away mercilessly.

Ye Yuan glanced at him angrily, "Get out, get out, in the end, I will give you a reminder, you are afraid of both the emperor and the prince when you come back this time, this time you took out the marriage letter of the emperor's testament, I believe that the emperor will be suspicious of you, be careful." The words fell, and the white shadow instantly disappeared into the dark night of the Lan Palace.

After the person disappeared, the essence in Wei Qianlan's eyes became darker and darker, and he came back this time to arouse the fear of the emperor and the crown prince, who all had to pay the price for what they had done.

Following.

In the early morning, as the morning fog slowly dispersed, Lingcheng ushered in the warm spring sun.

After the early dynasty, the great eunuch of Funing Palace hurriedly came, with the words of the queen mother, saying that the emperor and the prince were invited to sit in the palace and discuss something.

Funing Palace.

When the emperor and the crown prince arrived, they found that the queen was also there, and they were sitting on the side of the queen mother's bed to soothe her arms and soothe her hands.

"Queen Mother, did you come to me to talk about the marriage between King Lan and Gu Ningyan?" On the way, the emperor had already guessed that what the queen mother said was King Lan if there was something to discuss.

"Grandson, please say hello to the imperial grandmother." The crown prince looked at the queen again, "You are also there, Queen Mother?" ”

The queen nodded at her son, and then looked at the emperor, "The queen mother wants to know what is going on between King Lan and Gu Ningyan." ”

"Grandma Huang, do you know that Grandpa Huang actually left such a holy decree to Uncle Huang? Why didn't my father know anything? Speaking of that edict, Wei Tingtang was furious.

The Queen Mother was lying on the bed, covered with a thin blanket, vicissitudes like dead wood, and her eyes were slightly angry at the prince's inquiry. "Hmph, your imperial grandfather has always felt sorry for that little slut's evil seed, what's so strange about making plans for him in the end."

The emperor's eyes were cold and listened to the queen mother's curse, "What do you think of this marriage, there is the edict of the first emperor, and I can't suppress it, but Gu Ningyan must not marry King Lan, that would be too dangerous." ”

"Your Majesty, are you too worried, the mourning family doesn't believe it, what is the use of a cripple? Speaking of which, the result was all caused by yourself, the emperor back then, you were soft-hearted for a while, otherwise Wei Qianlan would be alive. "When it comes to Wei Qianlan, the Queen Mother's vicissitudes of life have no kindness, and some are all vicious.

The eyes of the queen, who was listening from the sidelines, fell on the emperor, and a trace of resentment obviously flashed.

The crown prince listened to the Queen Mother's words and said in a panic, "Gu Ningyan used to be a waste wood, but now he suddenly has a strong spiritual power and returns strongly, could it be with the help of the Blue Blood Compass?" ”

The emperor nodded, "What the prince said is not unreasonable, I have always doubted this issue, if it is true, then King Lan must not be allowed to marry her." ”

"Queen Mother, you can think of a way for the emperor and the crown prince, that Gu Ningyan is indeed rampant, not to mention ruining the Gu family, but also hurting Sister Yurou and Jing, you don't see how miserable they are now, it's really miserable." When the queen saw the opportunity, she added fuel and vinegar, and she was bound to punish Gu Ningyan.

The Queen Mother was even more furious when she heard this, and slapped her palm on the edge of the bed, "Hmph, Prime Minister Gu is too useless, I can't find a blue blood compass for many years, not to mention, I still raised such a daughter." ”

"Grandma Huang, please come forward to suppress their wedding date, so that we can have more time to investigate the purpose of Uncle Lanhuang's return and what is behind Gu Ningyan." The prince quickly stepped forward and knelt beside the Queen Mother to ask for advice.

The Queen Mother put away her anger in her eyes, and looked at her most beloved grandson lovingly, "Okay, what the imperial grandmother does is for you and your father." ”

"Where there is a queen mother." The emperor also liked the prince's proposal.

The Queen Mother waved her hand to signal that the emperor didn't have to, and then said, "How is Gu Yurou injured?" Can you still be the crown princess, if not, then choose another one from the Situ family, the prince's face is lost, and he will make it back as soon as possible. ”

"Yurou doesn't seem to be able to do it, I'll inform the Situ family later." The queen asked the imperial doctor on the day of Gu Yurou's burns, especially in the eyes of the face burns, she was afraid that she would not have the life of the mother of the country, so she couldn't help cursing Gu Ningyan in her heart.

The Queen Mother sighed deeply, "The Queen will do it as soon as possible." ”

"My grandson doesn't want to choose the crown princess, can't I do it in a while."

The prince's words caused the emperor to be puzzled, "Prince, do you have any plans?" ”

"Erchen just sees that his father is very hard, and he wants to help his father more, recently Uncle Lan and King Jinyang are both in Lingcheng, father, are you really at ease?" The prince said with a stern expression.

The emperor clenched his fists in his sleeves, the prince was right, Ye Yuan, the king of Jinyang, and King Lan grew up together since childhood, and they both won the favor of the emperor, Ye Yuan also inherited the position of the vassal king after his father's death, and the ministers of the feudal domain were all mentioning it, but he had been staying in Suicheng to keep silent, these were his own hidden dangers. It would be nice if we could find a way to contain them!

"Since the prince has a heart, then let it be up to you, I hope you don't disappoint me."

"The sons will not live up to your intentions, father, you don't know, the eldest princess Nianfu's sister has always been fond of Ye Yuan, the king of Jinyang, so father, don't you give them a finger on the marriage first."

The emperor looked at the crown prince with an approving gaze, "Your news is very timely, it just so happens that Ye Yuan is still in Lingcheng, Nianfu is not young, when it is the age of marriage, let's announce that Ye Yuan will come to meet." ”

"Erchen go at once."

Gu Ningyan drank too much with Ye Yuan last night, so she couldn't get up in the morning, until a noise woke her up. When she opened the door and walked out, there was no one in the inn, looking for the source of the sound, she saw Junyue coming to the backyard stable, a bunch of people gathered around, as if there were officials.

"Granny Akizuki?" I saw my mother-in-law and Sixiang also standing in the crowd and looking around.

"Miss, you're awake." When Granny Qiuyue saw Gu Ningyan wake up, she immediately grabbed Sixiang's neck and put her in the stable.

Gu Ningyan pinched his nose, and a thick bloody breath poured into his nose, "What's wrong?" ”

"There was a female guest in the inn who was killed, and her whole face was taken away, which was particularly bloody." Granny Akizuki made a frightened look as she described it.

Gu Ningyan was stunned, then looked up at the stable, and sure enough, a woman in a pink skirt with a face covered in blood was lying on the straw. Who would be so ruthless as to expose a woman's face?

"Get out of the way, don't you say that the cattle are all taken away, whose black mule is this, move away."

One of the little officials pointed at the four elephants and shouted.

The four elephants were angry, and they vigorously used their front two hooves to plow the ground, but their eyes were suggesting that the master was teaching each other a lesson.

Gu Ningyan almost laughed, and after calming the four elephants, he approached the front of the official, "This one in my family is not an animal, it is a mount, and it doesn't live in the stable, it lives in a room with me, do you understand?" ”

The little man widened his eyes, "What are you raising to live with people?" ”

"Whatever your business, I ask you, how did this woman die?" Gu Ningyan walked into the stable by himself, ready to check it.

"Who, don't mess in, otherwise you will be arrested as a suspect," another tall man looked like the head of the officials, forbidding Gu Ningyan to approach, and ordered someone to quickly move the body away.

Back in the room, Granny Qiu Yue closed the door, and the thought of that bloody face in her mind made her heart frightened, "Miss, you seem to be very interested in that deceased?" Seeing that the eldest lady asked with a deep look.

Gu Ningyan tapped on the table with one hand and took a sip of tea with the other, "I'm thinking who needs a woman's face?" When the words fell, a cold light flashed in his eyes.

"Gu Yurou!"

"Gu Yurou!"

Gu Ningyan and Sixiang said in unison.

"Miss, what do you and Sixiang mean—" Granny Qiuyue seemed to understand what they meant.

Gu Ning smoked a little, his eyes narrowed slightly, "Gu Zhenwen, the people behind them can't wait to finally make a move." ”

"What does the eldest lady mean, this matter was done by the forces behind Gu Zhenwen?"

Gu Ningyan nodded, "It seems that Lingcheng will not be peaceful in the near future." Gu Ningyan sighed, but his eyes looked out the window.

Granny Qiuyue and Sixiang also fell silent after glancing at each other.

Ye Yuan got the emperor's order and took his younger brother Ye An into the palace in a hurry, and didn't have time to say hello to Gu Ningyan.

Gonggong Chang led Ye Yuan into Kunruo Palace.

"Is Grandpa Chang wrong, if it is correct, this is the residence of the Empress Dowager of Kunruo Palace, not the emperor's diligent palace 36." Ye Yuan stopped lightly, raised his head and pointed to the name of the palace gate and asked Chang Hai's father-in-law.

"King Jinyang, that's right, the emperor is waiting for you in Kunruo Palace."

When Ye Yuan was puzzled, Prince Wei Tingtang suddenly went out to greet him, "Oh, Ye Yuan, you are here, this palace and my father have been waiting for you for a while." Then he looked at Ye An, "You are Ye An, you have grown a lot taller." ”

"See His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Without waiting for Ye Yuan and Ye An to come back to their senses, they were invited into Kunruo Palace by Wei Tingtang.

The emperor and the queen sat upright, and Ye Yuan took the second brother and stepped forward to salute, "Ye Yuan and his second brother Ye An visited the emperor, the queen mother, and the queen's mother." ”

Ye An was sleepless and timid when he entered the palace for the first time at a young age, so he chose to stand aside and wait quietly.

"I haven't seen him for many years, King Jinyang is really a talent, and so is the second son, young and handsome." The queen smiled and praised Ye Yuan and Ye An.

"That's what the queen said." The emperor did not hesitate to respond to the queen's words.

"Ye Yuan is late to see you, and I hope that the emperor will forgive you." Ye Yuan dragged the second brother beside him.

Ye An trembled, "Ye An is late to ask for your forgiveness." ”

"It's all forgiven, Ye Yuan, I know that you haven't married a woman yet, I don't know if I'll give you a marriage?" The Queen Mother smiled at Ye Yuan's expression, not letting go of a trace of emotion on his expression.

Ye Yuan's eyebrows were frivolous, and when he listened to the emperor's words, there was no flaw on his face, and he still kept smiling: "Thank you Queen Mother for your concern, Ye Yuan has no plans to get married yet." ”

The Queen Mother's face sank slightly at Ye Yuan's refusal, and her expression was obviously displeased.

The queen then said: "Why bother with the king of Jinyang, the second son and the third lady are still young, and they have lost the love of their parents early, so they should find a sister-in-law to love them well." ”
