"It's already past the hour, why hasn't the emperor come yet?"

"yes, this hasn't happened in all these years."

"Hey, Lord Wang, have you heard? Cai Yong died yesterday. ”

"I heard that Cai Yong colluded with the enemy country and did such a shameless thing, and he died like this, and it was too cheap for him......"

"Lord Zhao, a few days ago, Xinfeng Lou entered a batch of Western Regions wine, let's try it another day?"

"Very good, very good!"

The next day, the ministers got up early in the morning to go to the court as usual, but they entered the main hall, waited and waited, and saw that the time was about to pass, but they did not see the emperor.

"How? Can you stand it after standing for so long? ”

Listening to the officials slowly start chatting in a low voice, Gu Caizhi moved his legs, which were a little stiff from standing for a long time, and looked at Lian Qingjue, who was standing beside him, wrapped in a cloak and holding his hands.

"It's fine."

Lian Qingjue looked at Gu Caizhi with a faint smile on his face, frowning slightly.

"I missed the time of the early dynasty, this is the first time since the emperor succeeded to the throne."

"Ladies and gentlemen, the emperor is not feeling well today, so today's morning court will be exempted, please go back."

While the officials were still discussing in a low voice, Cao Fuxi finally appeared, although he was extremely calm, but those who had a heart still saw a trace of unusualness in his expression.

"Father-in-law Cao, is the emperor sick?"

Yushi Song Lianying stared straight at Cao Fuxi and asked the doubts in the hearts of the other officials.

"Yes, the emperor was infected with a cold last night, and he had a terrible headache this morning......"

"Have you seen the imperial doctor?"

Without waiting for Cao Fuxi to finish speaking, Song Lianying continued to ask.

"After reading it, the imperial doctor said that it would be good to recuperate for a few days."

"That's good."

Song Lianying bowed to the empty dragon chair.

"May the emperor recover soon, and the minister will retire first."

"Wechen retired."

Seeing Song Lianying leaving, the other officials also walked out of the hall one after another after saluting the dragon chair. Gu Caizhi turned around and was about to leave, but when he turned his head, he found that Lian Qingjue was still standing there motionless.

"Are you okay?"

"Nope." Lian Qingjue looked at Gu Caizhi and said with a wry smile, "My legs are numb, and I can't walk." ”

"You ......"

Gu Caizhi was surprised, and then he couldn't hold back, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, some couldn't cry or laugh, and looked at Lian Qingjue with some distress.

"Are you kidding me?"

Seeing the smile on the corner of Gu Caizhi's lips, even Qing Jue was a little surprised, this person obviously looks so good when he smiles, but he always has a tense face on weekdays. It seems that in front of him in the future, he will have to make him smile more.

"Nope."

Gu Caizhi immediately shook his head and denied it. He looked around and saw that only the two of them were left in the empty hall, so he walked out slowly with Lian Qingjue in his arms.

……

"Childe, there's news."

Because he had stood for too long in the early court and the hall was cold, Gu Caizhi was really relieved that Lian Qingjue was out of the palace gate, and got into the carriage of the Lian family and returned to Lian's mansion with him. And when the two of them had just had breakfast in the study, they saw Fan Yao walking in with a small bamboo tube.

"What's the news?"

Seeing that Lian Qingjue opened the bamboo tube and took out a piece of paper, with a somewhat playful expression after reading the contents of the paper, Gu Caizhi also leaned his head over.

"This Wen Xianchu...... It's kind of interesting. ”

"Wen Xianchu?"

After receiving a piece of news from Lian Qingjue, Gu Caizhi was also a little surprised after reading it.

"This Wen Xianchu is Cui Jiuling's senior brother?"

"Exactly. We had a few more encounters with him. ”

Lian Qingjue chuckled.

"I thought that when he stayed in the palace, he was really sincere to the emperor, but he didn't want to...... Oh, I didn't expect the emperor to pay the truth by mistake again. ”

"Then Wen Xian seems to be Sven at the beginning, and he can actually do such a thing as assassinating the emperor?"

Gu Caizhi frowned, but he didn't want Lian Qingjue to sneer suddenly.

"Tsk, you're impressed with him."

"Although it is a play, we have only a few sides to him, but his gesture is a ...... that even many children of the family can't match."

Gu Caizhi said unintentionally, but when he felt the cold gaze on the side, he couldn't help but pause, and then looked at Lian Qingjue with some weakness.

"I ...... I don't mean anything else...... I'm ......"

"How?"

"Poof......

Secretly looking at his son-in-law's face that had obviously changed due to Lord Gu's unintentional words, Fan Yao couldn't hold back for a while, so he laughed. Then, two cool gazes shot directly at him.

"Genus...... The subordinates still have something to do, and the subordinates retire. ”

These two eyes frightened Fan Yao, he hurriedly saluted Lian Qingjue and the two, and then left the study with a cold sweat, he almost didn't go to see the king of Hades early after copying the last "Art of War", and he had to be careful when he was by the side of Gongzi in the future.

"How?"

"Huh?"

Because of Fan Yao's interruption, Gu Caizhi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that he would have to pay attention when he spoke in front of this vinegar jar in the future. Unexpectedly, as soon as Fan Yao left, Lian Qingjue stared at him again and asked.

"I didn't ...... How. ”

Looking at Lian Qingjue's face slowly approaching, Gu Caizhi turned his head a little awkwardly.

"What's the matter?"

Even Qingjue still refuses to give up.

"But that's it...... It's just that there is one less infatuated person in the world. ”

Gu Caizhi simply closed his eyes and gritted his teeth.

"Hehe, you're sorry for him."

Lian Qingjue moved away and sat down, looking at Gu Caizhi, whose cheeks were a little crimson, and a little surprised.

"It's not necessarily that the emperor will kill him."

"Oh? How so? ”

Gu Caizhi was a little puzzled, in the situation just now, if according to the person's temperament in the past, the two of them were afraid that they would have ...... at this time But he actually sat back in a proper manner?

"Wen Xianchu originally had nothing to do with the emperor, but now he risked his life to assassinate the emperor, only to avenge Cui Jiuling, the emperor has a deep affection for Cui Jiuling, and Cui Jiuling's death was the emperor's fault, so now even if Wen Xianchu does not hesitate to risk his life to kill the emperor, for the sake of Cui Jiuling's face, the emperor will definitely not kill Wen Xianchu."

Pretending not to understand what Gu Caizhi was muttering in his heart, a sinister smile appeared on the corner of Lian Qingjue's mouth, and he would have to talk about Luo Awan's marriage later, and stay until the evening, heh, tonight will definitely not easily let go of this person who actually "misses" other men.

"There's some truth to that. I don't know what the emperor will do with this Wen Xianchu. ”

Gu Caizhi said, but suddenly felt a chill behind him, he turned his head to look, the windows were closed tightly, the carbon in the brazier was also burning, and even Qingjue was looking at himself with a harmless smile.
