In the Xuanshu Palace, a little eunuch with delicate eyebrows walked up to Guo Ang's side, "Your Majesty, please use tea." ”

Guo Ang doesn't like to drink tea, he feels that no matter what kind of tea it is, it has a strange taste, and it is even worse in summer, his little head continues to lower his reading and reading, and he said lightly, "Where to put it!" ”

"If Your Majesty doesn't like to drink hot tea, will the servant make you some plum juice?"

"Whatever." Others don't know that Guo Ang's favorite drink is the sour plum soup made by the Empress Dowager Jiang, and he doesn't know what home remedies are used, which is a hundred times better than plum juice.

The grape-like eyes were lowered, hiding the emotion in the eyes.

Actually, Empress Dowager Jiang was not so bad to him.

"How did the seventh brother become so boring!" The little eunuch took off his hat, and the green silk like a waterfall hung down on his shoulders, in stark contrast to his fair and delicate skin, and a pair of royal ancestral grape round eyes were bright and kind, as if there was starlight in them.

After seeing the woman's appearance clearly, surprise flashed in Guo Ang's eyes, and he said in surprise: "Third Emperor Sister, when did you come back?" ”

This person is the third daughter of Emperor Zhaohong, Guo Xuanji, who is the sister and brother of Guo Ang's mother, so the relationship between the two is the best. Three years ago, Emperor Zhaohong died, and was assigned by the Empress Dowager Jiang to guard the imperial tomb for three years, and the period expired before returning to Luoyang.

Guo Xuanji smiled, "In this Luoyang City, I'm afraid that only you still remember me." I came back three days ago, and I deliberately didn't let anyone inform you, just to surprise you! I remember that my seventh brother is eight years younger than me, and he is eleven this year! ”

"yes!"

The two sisters and brothers talked about the old days for a long time, Guo Xuanji sat on the pear wood chair beside her, and suddenly remembered something, and sadness suddenly flashed on her bright face, "I heard that the soul of the Empress Dowager Jiang has returned to her hometown, and there are no bones." ”

Surprise appeared in Guo Ang's eyes, "At the beginning, she kicked her out of the palace and cut off the relationship between you and Gu Xiang, I thought I would be very happy to know about her death." ”

Because the mothers of the two were good friends with Gu Jiming's mother Lan Shu, Xuanji often played with Gu Jiming, and when they came and went, they had feelings for Gu Jiming.

"At first, I did resent her, but after three years of reciting Buddhist scriptures, I found that she was not so hateful."

Guo Ang sighed, why didn't he think so, and said lightly, "Third Emperor Sister, Gu Qing is going to marry a wife, and the two of them will come to meet in a while, you ...... Do you want to meet him? ”

Guo Xuanji's soft facial features floated with a hint of sorrow, and she raised the corners of her lips bitterly, "Is Brother Jiming going to marry a wife...... Seventh brother, if I snatch love with a knife, will you think that the third sister is too domineering? ”

Guo Ang didn't understand love, but when he saw the sadness on his sister's face, he subconsciously shook his head, "I am now the Son of Heaven, if my sister has any wishes, I will definitely help you realize them!" ”

"Thank you, Seventh Brother!" When he bowed his head and thanked him, a pair of soft and kind eyes flashed with ruthlessness and calculation, and there was no softness and kindness just now.

Suddenly, a shrill voice came from outside the door, "Your Majesty, Gu Xiang and his fiancée He are here." ”

Guo Xuanji said a little shyly, "Seventh brother, I can't let Brother Jiming see the way he is now, you keep him first, I'll clean up and dress up!" ”

After the woman hurried away from the back door, the young man straightened his clothes and made a majestic appearance, "Xuan." ”

Jiang Cailing walked in, every scene and object in the Xuanshu Hall was full of familiarity, time had only passed for half a year, and the only thing that had changed was that the child in the dragon robe had become a young man, his face had begun to see edges and corners, and his eyebrows and Guo Yao were almost carved out of the same mold.

"Aiqing doesn't have to be polite, give a seat!"

After the two thanked and sat down, Jiang Cailing noticed the look that Guo Ang put on her, lowered her eyes slightly, and covered the emotion in her eyes, time flies so fast, in this serious little boy with the corners of his lips pursed, he can't see the figure of the child who was playing tricks because he wanted to sleep lazily and trying not to go to the morning court.

While Jiang Cailing was thinking, Gu Jiming and Guo Ang had been chatting for a long time.

"Gu Qing is the mainstay of my Great Zhou, I will definitely go to the big wedding banquet in person, and I ordered someone to create a pair of gold jewelry, I believe Gu Qing and Miss He will like it."

Gu Jiming arched his hand, "Weichen is panicked, thank Your Majesty for your gift, I heard Fuhai just now say that Your Majesty has not had a good appetite recently, and please take care of your Majesty's dragon body." ”

Of course, Jiang Cailing knows why Guo Ang has a poor appetite, every time it is summer, this kid will knock on the side and ask her to make some sour plum soup, obviously she wants to drink it in her heart, but she still looks arrogant, thinking of the situation at that time, Jiang Cailing feels a little funny.

Pity this child has no appetite, Jiang Cailing said, "Back to Your Majesty, the recent hot weather has indeed greatly reduced people's appetite, but you are the son of heaven of a country, affecting tens of millions of people, you must not neglect your diet." The folk girl will make some cold drinks, I wonder if Your Majesty can allow the folk girl to try it? ”

Guo Ang thought of the sadness in the eyes of the three emperor sisters just now, and a plan was born in his heart.

If he drank the drink made by He Ling'er and was poisoned, then he could use He Ling'er to poison the emperor as an excuse to disrupt the marriage and let the third emperor sister marry Gu Jiming!

Although this is unfair to He Ling'er, in the future, he will pay attention to the young talents around him, explain the misunderstanding and give her a marriage, and let her marry a good family.

Thinking of this, Guo Ang looked like a dragon with a happy heart, and said with a smile, "Okay! ”

Jiang Cailing followed the palace people to the imperial dining room, but on the way, she saw a magnificent woman with a slender figure walking in the direction of the Xuanshu Palace.

There should not be a woman of this age in the palace, unless...... It's the three princesses!

Only then did she remember that the three-year period had expired, and it was not surprising that Guo Xuanji returned to the palace. At the beginning, Emperor Zhaohong also told her before his death that Guo Yao must inherit the treasure before Guo Xuanji returns.

Emperor Zhaohong was worried that Guo Yao and Guo Xuanji had a deep relationship between their sisters and brothers, and Guo Xuanji was already sensible, so it was very likely to instigate Guo Yao. So he asked Jiang Cailing to issue an order and ordered his third daughter Guo Xuanji to go to the imperial tomb to guard the spirit for three years, and return after the expiration of the period.

Jiang Cailing sighed, Emperor Zhaohong is really a generation of wise monarchs, and he calculates step by step, and he is so accurate that people can't help but admire. It's a pity that because of her changes, this situation has become tricky.

Guo Yao, be sure to ascend the throne as soon as possible!

After preparing the sour plum soup, Jiang Cailing knew that the people in the palace were complicated and sinister, and she was worried that others would do something in it, so she could almost say that she was guarding by her every inch.

After the ice cubes cooled down, Jiang Cailing walked back to the Xuanzheng Hall with the sour plum soup with the ice cubes in her hands.

When I arrived at the Xuanzheng Palace, I saw Guo Xuanji standing next to Gu Jiming, I didn't see my face clearly from a distance just now, but now I look closer, and I am more soft and affectionate than three years ago.

She had heard about the close personal relationship between the Third Imperial Daughter and Gu Jiming before, and now it seems that the rumors are true.

Gu Jiming introduced, "Ling'er, this is the third princess. ”

Jiang Cailing Fuli said, "The folk girl visits the third princess. ”

"No need to be polite!" Guo Xuanji picked up Jiang Cailing and exclaimed, "This sister is a sign of good life, and I will be relieved to have someone like Miss He to take care of Brother Jiming in the future!" ”

This shout of "Brother Jiming" made Jiang Cailing have goosebumps all over her body.

Jiang Cailing pretended to be frightened, lowered her head, and said in fear: "The princess is of noble birth, Ling'er is just a common person, the princess's 'sister' really tormented Ling'er!" ”

"The princess is a royal lady, and this 'brother' can't afford it."

Guo Xuanji originally wanted to show her gentleness and generosity in front of Gu Jiming, but at this time, Jiang Cailing's reaction was as if she had bullied her, she had been called Brother Jiming since she was a child, why did she change her words now?

A hint of resentment flashed in her beautiful eyes, this He Ling'er is really scheming!

However, his face was still soft, and he slowly spoke, "I have been guarding the spirit for three years, the imperial tomb is on the mountain, compared to the delicacies of the mountains and seas in the palace, I am used to porridge and pickles, the summer is hot, even if there is no ice in the palace, it is better, and the most afraid is winter."

None of you have ever lived in a ventilated room, but it's actually quite fun, and I learned how to glue the windows from the people. In the past three years, I have been like an ordinary woman, so I forgot my identity for a while, Lord Gu and Miss He, you are right, I was negligent. ”

These words are full of strength in grievances, and they can poke people's hearts the most.

Showing weakness is a woman's best weapon.

This was taught to her by her mother, and sure enough, Guo Xuanji saw that Guo Ang had a guilty and distressed look on his face, and he was secretly proud in his heart, and his eyes turned slowly, looking in the direction of Gu Jiming, but the handsome face like jade was still expressionless, revealing a cold and detached expression.

Jiang Cailing naturally knew Guo Xuanji's intentions, and said softly according to the other party's words, "It is a good story that the third princess has guarded the tomb for the first emperor for three years, filial piety can move the sky, and the people and daughters are very admired. ”

Buckle all the suffering on the hat of filial piety, even if it is to cross the knife mountain under the oil pot, in the Great Zhou Dynasty that respects Baishun and filial piety first, it will only become reasonable.

Sure enough, there was less pity on Guo Ang's face.

Guo Xuanji bit her silver teeth, turned her back in order to hide her emotions, and took the plum juice from the palace maid's hand, "I forgot about business for a while, I came to send the green plum juice to the emperor's younger brother to relieve the summer." Over the years, I have been idle on weekdays, except for reading and writing, I will ponder in the small kitchen. It just so happens that Master Gu and Miss He are also there, let's try it together. ”

"Okay."

The plum juice in a glass cup looks crystal clear in the sunlight, and the plum that sinks at the bottom of the cup is paired with a light orange juice, which makes you feel appetizing.

After distributing it to everyone, Guo Ang took a sip and praised, "The plum juice made by the Third Emperor Sister is so delicious!" ”

Jiang Cailing knew that if Guo Ang really liked to eat or drink something, it would definitely not be like this.

However, Guo Xuanji didn't know that on weekdays, she let the eunuchs and palace maids around her taste it, and they would naturally compliment her, so that Guo Xuanji had the illusion that she was the best in the world in cooking, at this time, she looked at Gu Jiming expectantly, and said softly: "Master Gu thinks there is still room for improvement?" ”

Gu Jiming put it under his nose and sniffed, "Can the princess put fruit wine in it?" ”

Guo Xuanji's face was bright, "Gu Xiang is so powerful, Xuanji only put a little bit of green plum wine, I didn't expect the adults to guess it!" ”

"I'm sorry for the third princess, but the minister doesn't drink anything." As he spoke, he put the green plum juice aside, and looked sideways at the saint and said, "Your Majesty also knows that I never drink alcohol. ”

Guo Ang nodded, he didn't believe that Gu Jiming didn't drink a drop of wine, so he let Gu Jiming drink a glass of wine in front of him, and the result was ...... Gu Jiming rubbed his face as if he was crazy, when his face was white dough? After that, Guo Ang was so frightened that he granted Gu Jiming the privilege of not drinking.

Guo Xuanji couldn't hide the disappointment in her eyes, and saw the black liquid in Jiang Cailing's hand, and knew that the taste was very bad at a glance, and then said softly, "It's okay, but Xuanji is very curious about the taste of Miss He's sour plum soup, it feels delicious!" Miss He, can you give me a cup to taste? ”

Jiang Cailing's red lips raised, "Okay! ”
