Chapter 368: The Queen's Plan (Third Update)
The personal welcome ceremony continued, but at this time, everyone had lost the interest in watching the ceremony, and they were full of thoughts about the sudden appearance of the queen of heaven, as well as the so-called bad omen, what did these mean.
Li Yu's face became even more ugly, he took a sip of the wine, handed over the gourd to the female official with a little impatience, and took Princess Gina to salute the saint and the queen of heaven.
It's just that his movements were a little heavier after all, and the female officer couldn't catch the gourd for a while, and when she fell to the ground with a bang, she broke open.
Princess Gina watched the female officer pack up the gourd in a panic through the fan, retreated with a panicked face, and looked at Li Yu in front of her, her face was full of impatience.
Her heart sank, and she remembered the words that Zhou Chuchu said to her when she came out of the palace that day, could it be that King Chengxian was still thinking about the Lingling County Lord and didn't want to marry herself?
She turned her eyes from Li Yu to look at the seat, and she had already quietly asked the palace maid, knowing that the young woman in the silver-red jacket and skirt sitting next to Princess Anping was the lord of Lingling.
It wasn't until she looked at Gu Mingzhu that her eyes couldn't help but tighten, revealing vicious jealousy.
The woman is slender, her appearance is like a flower of spring dawn, she is bright and delicate with dew waiting to be released, and the eyes in her eyebrows and eyes are even more moving.
It turns out that she is the lord of Lingling County, and she is the sweetheart of the virtuous king Li Yu!
It's also a thorn in your own flesh!
She retracted her gaze, gritted her teeth and lowered her head, this is not Gao Chang, and the woman in front of her is not like before, she can be whipped to death with a single sentence, she must endure it now, at least become a kiss before doing it.
After the palace maid helped Gina to send her to King Xian's Mansion, the sage waved his hand and let everyone in the hall feast, but he supported Liu An's hand back to the Taiji Hall with a calm face, and he didn't even have the intention of staying, he was obviously affected by Fang Cai's affairs and was worried.
The queen of heaven sat down at the upper seat with a smile, and said with a smile with Han Guifei: "It's been hard these days, and you have to worry about these things in the palace, big and small, and today's welcome gift is also very well arranged, and it is very proper." ”
Concubine Han Guifei had already lost that idea of complacency and expectation, and her heart had already raised her throat, but she still had to pull out a smile: "Niangniang has tormented the concubine, and it is the blessing of the concubine to be able to share the worries of the concubine." ”
As she spoke, she personally stepped forward to pour tea and soup for the queen of heaven: "These days, the mother is sick, the concubine is very worried, the original qualifications are dull and rude, and the affairs in the palace are also confused. ”
"Now that Niangniang is in good health, the concubines are really happy, and they don't dare to meddle in the affairs of the palace anymore, and ask Niangniang to take back the power of the six palaces."
As she spoke, she bowed down to the queen of heaven with a frightened face, not daring to have the slightest slackness, and looked sincerely looking forward to it.
At this time, the ladies in the palace also looked at this side, holding their breath and waiting for the queen of heaven to speak.
It's just that the queen of heaven didn't look at Han Guifei who was worshipping in front of her, but beckoned to Gu Mingzhu with a smile: "You come, come to me and talk." ”
Gu Mingzhu walked forward with his head down, sat down on the couch behind the queen of heaven, and listened to the instructions.
Only then did the queen turn her head to look at Han Guifei, but her smile was much lighter: "What is the concubine doing, I am not in good health now, and I just came to see Erlang's marriage today, there is no other meaning, you don't have to worry too much, Ansheng can sit down." ”
Han Guifei felt bitter in her heart, she was afraid of what she was doing now, and the queen of heaven would not accept it, even if she intended to return the power of the Six Palaces, it was useless to put on a posture of admitting defeat and seeking peace, and she was afraid that she would not be able to stop it anymore.
She could only get up in confession, and slowly retreated to the mat, bowing her head and not daring to speak again.
The queen of heaven talked to Gu Mingzhu with great interest: "...... Your grandmother went back to Qingzhou, who came to watch the ceremony? ”
Gu Mingzhu said softly: "The second aunt can't enter the palace without a grade, and the third sister Mingyu came with the wife of the Wang family." ”
The queen raised her eyebrows: "Mingyu? How old are you? ”
Gu Mingzhu beat a drum in his heart, but he didn't dare to hide it: "It's fifteen after the New Year." ”
"It's almost time, but it's a good age." The queen smiled and nodded, "Teach her to come over and take a look with me, and see if there are some similarities with you, and there are many things that please me." ”
Gu Mingzhu's heart became completely uneasy at this time, and he told Ah Bi to invite Gu Mingyu over, but he frowned worriedly, why did the queen of heaven target Gu Mingyu?
When Gu Mingyu came over with Abi, he bowed down and asked the queen of heaven to say goodbye, and the queen smiled kindly and nodded: "Get up quickly, sit with your sister and talk to me." ”
Although Gu Mingyu had a good and strong temperament in the past, he had never been cared about by nobles like this, and he was very uneasy in his heart, and when he sat down next to Gu Mingzhu, he timidly pulled Gu Mingzhu's sleeve and whispered: "Big sister......"
She really didn't know what was going on.
Although Gu Mingzhu couldn't guess the meaning of the queen of heaven, she could see that the queen of heaven had no malicious intentions, after all, at this time, she would never be an enemy of the Gu family again, but should have to envelop the Gu family more closely in her hands.
She patted Gu Mingyu's hand lightly, chuckled and shook her head, reassuring her.
The queen of heaven looked at the little movements of the two sisters, smiled even deeper, and asked Gu Mingyu: "Mingzhu is boring, she only likes to read, what did the third lady like in the house in the past?" ”
Gu Mingyu replied softly: "The courtiers don't know much about poetry and books, and in the past, they only rode horses with them to feast, or went to incense and listened to plays, I'm afraid that it is, I'm afraid that the mother doesn't like it......"
Her voice trembled a little, but the queen of heaven listened to it but her face was even more kind, and she smiled: "There can be a few young and old people like Mingzhu, the young lady should just ride a horse and listen to the lively play, if there is anything I don't like, I love to listen to the play." ”
She was glancing at Gu Mingyu: "After a while, you will come to the palace to accompany me to listen to the drama and talk to your sister." ”
Gu Mingyu was stunned, what does this mean?
Gu Mingzhu still heard the meaning, and couldn't tell whether she was happy or worried, so she gently pulled her and said in a low voice: "Thank you." ”
Gu Mingyu bowed down in a daze: "Courtiers Xie Niangniang Longen." ”
The queen smiled and stretched out her hand to nod Gu Mingzhu: "You are a clever one." ”
The banquet was full of joy, but in the Taiji Hall, there was already thunder, and everyone changed color.
The sage threw the book in his hand to the ground, gritted his teeth and scolded: "This group of rebellious ministers is rebellious, they dare, they dare to do something on the emperor's tomb, with the intention of destroying my Tang foundation, no wonder this palace is so unpeaceful, and my body is ......."
His eyes became more and more ruthless, and he instructed Liu An, who was already too frightened to straighten up: "Go, order someone to invite the queen of heaven, and the ministers of the court, I want to get rid of the rebellion!" ”
