The carriage to the emperor's tomb was waiting in front of the palace gate early in the morning, when Gu Mingzhu came out with Ah Bi and Xiao Kui, Zhou Chuchu was already calling the servants to carry the cage, looking at the few simple burdens in Ah Bi's hands, Zhou Chuchu laughed, and his flying eyebrows were full of disdain: "The county lord of Lingling is really simple, he only brought so many salutes when he went out for two days, and he was not afraid of ......."

It's just that before her words fell, Princess Anping had already come out with the palace maids, and it was just two cages and a few burdens, which was far from being as exciting as Zhou Chuchu, so Zhou Chuchu reluctantly shut up.

Princess Anping pulled Gu Mingzhu: "Mingzhu, you can take my carriage today and talk to me." ”

Zhou Chuchu's face over there was very ugly, but he didn't open his mouth unexpectedly, just snorted in a low voice, turned his head and told the palace maids to clean up as soon as possible, and helped Pei Lan's hand to get into the carriage.

The concubines and nobles in the palace all boarded the car, but the carriage waited in front of the Ganlu Hall and did not move, and the queen of heaven had not boarded the car.

Gu Mingzhu lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked towards the Ganlu Hall not far away.

The halls and pavilions on the jade steps are high, and there is no movement to be seen, but the carriage in front of the jade steps is already panicked, and the queen of heaven has not boarded the car for a long time, and everyone knows that it must be because she is seriously ill.

The rumors of these days have spread vigorously, and the palace is also talking about and speculating about the diva's condition, but no one has ever thought that she is so sick that it is difficult to even board the car.

Gu Mingzhu's eyes swept over the carriages waiting in front of her, the first one was Concubine De's carriage, and coincidentally, Concubine De also lifted the curtain, and was looking up slightly towards the Manna Palace, there was no half-point look on her side face, only indifference.

It wasn't until she turned around and saw Gu Mingzhu that her face changed, showing a worried look, frowning lightly and nodding to Gu Mingzhu.

Gu Mingzhu also bowed slightly to her in the carriage, which was regarded as a greeting.

It's just that her undisguised cold color made Gu Mingzhu remember it clearly.

This famous good person in the Six Palaces is afraid that it is not so simple, Gu Mingzhu lowered the curtain, raised his eyebrows slightly, and thought secretly.

It has been half an hour since the queen of heaven came out of the palace, more than ten palace maids of the manna hall are surrounded by a rattan sedan chair, and the queen of heaven is sitting on the rattan sedan chair, although she is dressed in a bright yellow group phoenix Zhai clothes, red gold and nine-tailed phoenix crown, but it is difficult to hide the paleness of her face, she leans on the rattan sedan chair with half-squinted eyes, holds a handkerchief in her hand, coughs weakly from time to time, and looms under the phoenix canopy with her head down, Xu Siyan follows closely, her face is full of worry.

Coming down from the jade steps of the Ganlu Palace, the Queen of Heaven didn't even say a word to the palace concubines who had been waiting for a long time, and went straight to the carriage, Xu Siyan ordered to set off, and the emperor's tomb worship began.

Before leaving the palace gate, Princess Anping couldn't sit still, and was clamoring to go to the carriage of the Queen of Heaven: "Mingzhu, you have also seen it, A-Niang is very sick, I want to take care of her." ”

Gu Mingzhu stretched his eyebrows and shook his head: "Your Highness, I'm afraid that the Queen of Heaven is recuperating at this time, so it's better to go to the Emperor's Mausoleum, and then you go over to say goodbye to Niangniang." ”

Princess Anping looked at Gu Mingzhu's determined appearance, was stunned for a moment, slowly sat down, and seemed to be a little more settled in her heart, she trusted Gu Mingzhu, she must have a reason to say this.

The carriage of the inner palace out of the Taiji Palace and the convoy of the clan courtiers led by the sage were in one place, converging into a longer and more majestic convoy towards the Tonghua Gate, with the golden armor guards wearing gold armor and Tang swords on both sides, and the majestic Xiao cavalry guards riding tall horses took the lead in opening the way.

Gu Mingzhu, who was talking with Princess Anping, was a little absent-minded at this time, glancing at the low-hanging curtain from time to time, and couldn't help but want to open it to take a look.

The carriages of the courtiers of the clan are here, I wonder if the rest of the carriages that went to the imperial tomb with the holy driver have come?

was thinking about it, but he heard someone ask outside the carriage: "Her Royal Highness the princess is in the carriage?" ”

It was Qi Shanggong, who was dressed in a beard and hurried forward, following the carriage that was slowly moving forward.

Princess Anping was a little surprised, and ordered someone to invite her to get into the carriage: "What is the matter with Shanggong to see me?" ”

Gu Mingzhu bit her lip lightly and looked at Qi Shanggong, her eyes flashing slightly.

"The minister was ordered by Concubine De Niangniang to come to inform Her Royal Highness the princess and the county lord, in front of which is Lantian Station, where you want to change the carriage to go to the emperor's mausoleum, and please prepare Your Royal Highness and the county lord." Qi Shanggong smiled slightly.

Changing carriages? Princess Anping and Gu Mingzhu were a little puzzled, and looked at Qi Shanggong: "Why do you want to change the carriage?" ”

Qi Shanggong said with a smile: "This is the idea of the county lord of Changping, saying that the carriages that the inner palace rides on weekdays are made of birch, which is more than stable and light, and the long-distance journey is only afraid of clumsiness and inconvenience, so the county lord specially prepared dozens of carriages made of boxwood for the nobles to transfer." ”

Princess Anping's eyes widened: "She prepared dozens of carriages?" ”

Gu Mingzhu couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, he had always heard that the mansion of the eldest princess of Yuancheng was rich and generous, but he didn't expect it to be so generous, and he casually took out so much money and silver to prepare dozens of carriages, you must know that the carriages used by the nobles in the palace are all exquisite and luxurious, and it costs nearly 100 gold just to drive, not to mention so much.

It seems that Zhou Chuchu really put a lot of thought into it, and he still has money, but this time he has hollowed out his mind to make a long face in front of the saint and the queen of heaven.

Over there, Princess Anping was still curiously asking, "Is it only us who want to change the carriage?" What about my father and how many royal brothers? ”

Qi Shanggong said with a smile: "The carriage of the saint and several highnesses is all four, so naturally there is no need to change it." Even the carriages of several family gentlemen who went with the saint were all two-wheeled BMW horses, which was far from a problem. ”

When she said this, she tilted her head, and her eyes paused on Gu Mingzhu, full of smiles.

It was that little smile that made Gu Mingzhu turn her eyes away, she didn't dare to look at her directly, her face was a little uncomfortable, of course she knew what Qi Shanggong was talking about.

He's letting her know that he's around.

When Qi Shanggong delivered the message, he retreated, and rode a horse to follow the convoy and continue to move forward.

Princess Anping was a little interested at this time, and pulled Gu Mingzhu to talk about the carriage: "...... How generous she was, she spent so much money to buy a carriage, and she didn't know what the carriage looked like, and how it was better than ours. ”

The little lady is always a little excited when she has new things, and even the worries that have been hanging in her heart have faded a lot, and she gradually became cheerful, Gu Mingzhu looked at her expectant and curious appearance, and couldn't help laughing, but the dark cloud that had been hanging over everyone's heads was diluted a lot.
