Chapter 284: The Storm (Part 1)

The rainstorm finally came, and in the middle of the night there was a storm of wind and rain outside the temple, mixed with lightning and thunder, which woke the sleeping people from their dreams.

Ah Bi was the most vigilant, put on his coat and hurriedly entered the inner hall to close the window, and called the palace maids to carefully inspect the various halls and rooms of Qiluan Pavilion, and did not teach the water.

Xiao Kui entered the inner hall, looked at Gu Mingzhu, who had already sat up, poured a bowl of hot tea and stepped forward: "County Lord, but I was awakened by the thunder, I am afraid that this rain will not stop for a while, so let's rest again." ”

Gu Mingzhu looked at the shadows of the trees that were reflected in the hall window, and said in a deep voice, "What time is it?" ”

Xiao Kui said softly: "It's only a moment." ”

Gu Mingzhu shook his head lightly and slowly lay down: "When it is dawn, follow me to the Manna Palace." ”

She didn't sleep well that night, there were many chaotic dreams intertwined, dragging her deep and unable to sleep peacefully, there were the desperate cries of the crown princess Ding, the ecstatic face of Li Yu when she received the edict of canonization of the crown prince, and the contemptuous and ridiculous face when she was driven out of the Xian Wang's mansion.

After tossing and turning all night, he was finally woken up by Ah Bi carefully: "County Lord, the morning bell has ringed, it's time to go to the Ganlu Hall to greet the mother." ”

Gu Mingzhu rubbed the corners of her forehead tiredly, instructed Xiaokui to bring someone in to freshen up, and helped Abi's hand to get up from the bed.

While lightly holding Gu Mingzhu's hair in a bun, while looking at Gu Mingzhu's face, Abi said in a low voice: "County Lord, the person who did it ...... it."

Last night, Cao Gong of the Shanggong Bureau hurriedly came to Qiluan Hall and brought the news of the "thief", and according to Xu Siyan's instructions, this matter was handed over to Gu Mingzhu to deal with.

Gu Mingzhu's expression was cold, and he looked at himself in the palace in the mirror: "Everything is told to the mother as it is, and it is up to the mother to decide." ”

She knew that this turmoil would be difficult to calm down, and no one knew what would happen next.

After changing the clogs and wearing the crane, Gu Mingzhu went to the Qianqiu Palace to greet Princess Anping.

“…… The thunder and rain last night were so scary that I didn't dare to sleep for most of the night. Princess Anping's little face was scared, "The imperial brother is in Daming Palace, and I don't need to go to Chongwen Hall today, but I still feel bad, it's better to be good at everything on weekdays, even if I follow the master to write big characters." ”

Gu Mingzhu gently shook Princess Anping's hand, and said softly: "Your Highness doesn't have to worry, it's just temporary, after two days the weather will be fine, I will accompany Your Highness to the courtyard for a walk, I heard that the beauty chrysanthemum over there in Lingyan Pavilion is blooming very well, I asked Ah Bi to make chrysanthemum cake and taste it with His Highness." ”

Princess Anping smiled and nodded: "You go, I'm afraid that A-Niang will blame if you go late." ”

Watching Gu Mingzhu bend his knees and retreat, Zhou Chuchu, who was sitting on the side, slowly raised his head and stared at her back.

The queen of heaven once again summoned Gu Mingzhu to the Ganlu Palace, plus she took her to the Chengxiang Hall the day before, and even brought her with her in the palace, which shows that in the short time she has been in the palace, she has gained the trust of the queen of heaven and snatched the position that originally belonged to her.

She slowly put down the tea pot in her hand, and a sneer curled up at the corner of her mouth. Maybe Gu Mingzhu is really smart, but it's a pity that when he meets himself, no matter how much scheming he has, he can only fall short.

What she wants is not only everything that Gu Mingzhu snatched, but also Gu Mingzhu's life!

The rain has not stopped, and when you sit in the palace car, you can feel the cold that is soaked on the curtain, Gu Mingzhu has been silent, and Ah Bi and Xiaokui don't dare to say much.

When he arrived at His Royal Highness Ganlu, Xiao Kui held an umbrella, and Abi helped Gu Mingzhu get out of the carriage, stepping on the jade steps step by step towards the top.

When I arrived at the jade steps, I saw Xu Siyan come out: "The county lord is here." ”

Gu Mingzhu nodded: "Niangniang can be in the palace?" ”

Xu Siyan said in a low voice: "Yes, it's just that I suffered a little cold last night and has a headache." ”

Gu Mingzhu frowned and walked towards the hall: "Have you invited a medical officer to take a look?" Can the Korean hospital sentence be in the Tai Medical Department? ”

She remembered that the queen of heaven had always asked the Korean court judge to help see a doctor, and it was also the Korean court's judgment to ask for pulse to prescribe medicine on weekdays.

Xu Siyan was stunned for a moment, and his expression was even more complicated: "Yes, I have already sent someone to invite you." ”

Gu Mingzhu nodded, took off his clogs and cranes in front of the hall, changed his silk shoes and stepped into the hall, and bowed down in front of the queen of heaven's couch: "Niangniang." ”

On this day, the queen of heaven was not as strict and beautiful as usual, only wearing a homely plain satin dress, and no longer made a high bun on her head, but just curled a bun, holding a few white jade hairpins, her face was a little haggard, and she leaned on the table and talked to the Duchess of Wei.

Seeing Gu Mingzhu coming in, he smiled slightly: "Get up, are you drenched in such a heavy rain?" ”

Gu Mingzhu chuckled and shook her head: "It's tightly covered, and it's not drenched." ”

The Duchess of Wei on the side looked at Gu Mingzhu and smiled: "It's still the age of a little flower and a bone, and her body is good, so she won't be so squeamish." ”

The queen of heaven instructed the palace maid to send the couch to Gu Mingzhu, and her smile was a little pale: "No, it's not like our age, it's just that it's a little windy at night, so I can't stand it." ”

Duchess Wei sighed softly: "Yu Niang, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is just injured, and he will be fine in a while, you can relax, you should also go and talk to the saint well, why can't you just be separated......"

She said words of comfort, but her eyes flashed and flashed, and the look on her face was a little unnatural.

The queen of heaven didn't see it, but shook her head with a wry smile: "The current situation, even if I go to ask to see the saint, I can't take it all over, he feels it with all his heart...... How could they listen to me? ”

Sun Baolin's miscarriage reported to the Taiji Hall the night before, and the palace maid who was waiting in front of the palace came back to reply, only saying that there was a broken black jade unicorn paperweight in the hall, but no one came to ask her to ask, let alone ask her in person.

If he was willing to believe her, and remembered the love between husband and wife over the years, how could he not even ask a question, and he would not even listen to an explanation.

The queen's smile became more and more bitter, and she only felt that the pain in the corner of her forehead was even worse, and she had been married for more than ten years, and at this point, I am afraid that there is only a little bit of harmony left on the surface.

Duchess Wei looked at the queen's ugly face, hesitated for a moment, and still couldn't hold back: "After all, it is husband and wife, where is there an overnight feud, the saint is afraid that he will be angry for a while, so it is better to ...... I'll go and talk to him for you, and I'll persuade him, and it won't be like this. ”

Gu Mingzhu's hand holding the tea pot trembled slightly, his eyes lifted from the hot tea soup, and fell on the Duchess of Wei Guo, who raised her head to look at the queen of heaven, and then turned to look at the queen of heaven.

It's just that I don't know if I can't see the face of the queen of heaven through the hot air, so I just heard her say lightly: "It's naturally good that my sister is willing to help me share my worries, but the saint is afraid that he will not have time to come to the inner palace, so how can he listen to his sister's persuasion." ”
