When Cui Lin got down the jade steps and was about to take the reins and horsewhip from the eunuch, he suddenly turned around and strode towards Gu Mingzhu, who sent him out: "I'll pick you up in a few days." ”

Gu Mingzhu heard the firmness in his tone, his heart warmed, and he smiled: "Don't worry, I'm just talking to the Queen Mother, I used to live in this palace for a long time, and I've long been used to it." ”

Cui Lin's expression was solemn and did not ease at all, his eyes looked at her intently, and after a while, he turned over and got on the horse, and went out of the palace with Cui Cheng and the others without looking back.

Gu Mingzhu watched him walk away, the smile on his face finally disappeared, and he turned his head and walked towards the Taiji Hall with a little heavy steps, in fact, they all understood that the Queen Mother would not leave Gu Mingzhu as simple as talking.

The Queen Mother wants Cui Lin's submission, but also the support of the Gu family, as well as Gu Mingzhu.

Although Gu Mingzhu didn't know what the Queen Mother's final decision was, she didn't think it would be what the Cui family and everyone wanted.

The inner hall of the Taiji Hall has been cleaned up, the saint who is like a gossamer was placed on the couch, the queen mother sat on the side with heavy eyes, looked at him for a long time and did not speak, the palace maids stood aside with bated breath, and saw Gu Mingzhu go in before they breathed a sigh of relief, and bowed down.

Gu Mingzhu didn't look at them, but walked to the Queen Mother's side: "Niangniang." ”

The tears in the Queen Mother's eyes flashed, and she turned her head and smiled: "When you come back, my heart will be much more stable." ”

Gu Mingzhu looked at the silver threads on her high bun that were difficult to hide, and sat down softly: "Niangniang is at ease, there is nothing to do." ”

The Queen Mother held her hand and sighed in a low voice: "It's just that Ah Rong ...... her"

Thinking of Xu Siyan's death, Gu Mingzhu was also a relative in her heart: "Let's bury her alive." ”

Although Xu Siyan has spent most of her life in the Taiji Palace, she has already seen through the treacherous and complicated nature of the deep palace, she definitely doesn't want to let herself be buried in the flower garden of the Jiashou Palace so hastily, no matter what, Gu Mingzhu wants her to go with peace of mind.

The Queen Mother nodded again and again: "She has followed me for all these years, and she died to protect me, originally I wanted to wait for the big event to be decided, give her a good marriage, marry out and enjoy wealth and prosperity, but now...... can only be buried in her. ”

Gu Mingzhu sighed in her heart and promised, "Just leave it to me to arrange." ”

The Queen Mother pulled her and said, "What about Anping?" Is she okay? ”

She already knew that Princess Anping was rescued by the Cui family, and she was always uneasy when she didn't see her coming.

Gu Mingzhu nodded: "Fang Cai Qilang has already sent Her Royal Highness the princess into the palace." ”

This change after accident made the originally simple Princess Anping even more depressed and uneasy, and Gu Mingzhu was also distressed in her eyes.

The queen mother didn't know that Princess Anping was afraid, but she was not an ordinary woman in the deep palace, she had to worry about not only this idea, but also the relationship between children and children, and the shortcomings of the family, she wanted to put more thoughts on the Sheji Dynasty, and when she heard that Princess Anping was fine, she put her heart down: "She is only afraid and scared, she has never seen these when she is young, you take more care to accompany her to relieve her." ”

Gu Mingzhu responded softly.

"I have ordered someone to urgently summon your father back to Chang'an," the Queen Mother changed her words, "San Lang is about to become a vassal, and your father and daughter sisters should also get together, after all, Nanhai County is far away from Chang'an, and I am afraid that we will rarely see each other in the future." ”

The Queen Mother not only allowed King Xian to become a vassal, but even let them go in such a hurry, so what is her plan......

Gu Mingzhu's heart flickered, but he didn't dare to show it on his face, and bowed respectfully: "Empress Dowager Xie." ”

She whispered about Gu Mingyue's death again: "...... The aftermath of the side concubine, I am afraid that I will have to help the general's mansion handle it. ”

Although Gu Mingyue bears the name of King Xian's side concubine, she has not been on the jade, not to mention that King Xian is now difficult to protect herself, and only the Gu family can help handle her posthumous affairs.

The Queen Mother was also a little surprised when she heard the news of Gu Mingyue's death, but she didn't care more and nodded: "I heard that your aunt is very virtuous and housekeeper, so I want to be able to take care of it, and let the Shanggong Bureau send the utensils over according to the funeral ceremony of the side concubine." ”

Gu Mingzhu also responded and ordered them one by one.

The Queen Mother left her for a long time, and arranged everything after the chaos one by one, but she didn't mention letting her out of the palace, and Gu Mingzhu didn't ask, just like before she got married, she stayed in the palace to help the Queen Mother take care of the affairs of the six palaces.

In the evening, Gu Mingzhu went to Princess Anping's bedroom.

Princess Anping, who was dressed in a plain white dress and had black hair, sat on the couch in despair, looking at her in a daze: "Mingzhu, they said that the saint is really bad this time?" ”

Gu Mingzhu recalled the saint she saw in the Taiji Hall in the daytime, pale and emaciated to the point that only a pair of skins and skeletons remained, the ups and downs of her chest were so weak that they were almost gone, and that appearance really seemed to disappear at any time, she nodded hesitantly: "The medical officers of the Imperial Medical Department all said so." ”

Princess Anping didn't cry this time, but Mu Mu turned her face: "So who will fight this time?" ”

Gu Mingzhu felt a pain in her heart, and stepped forward to hold her cold hand: "Your Highness, everything will pass." ”

Princess Anping raised her head and looked at her: "What does she want to do this time?" The eldest brother is no longer done, the second brother will also be questioned, the third brother will be forced to go to the South China Sea, who else can be at her mercy? ”

The sadness and hatred in her eyes shocked Gu Mingzhu, and she whispered for a long time: "This is the emperor's family, Your Highness should know that no one has a choice." ”

When Princess Anping heard this, she was stunned for a long time, and tears fell into her eyes: "Yes, there is no choice, if you can really choose who wants to be born in the emperor's family, watching your relatives kill each other, but there is nothing you can do, you can only be at the mercy of fate." ”

She buried her face in her hands and cried lowly, wanting to cry out all the fears, fears and grief of these days, Gu Mingzhu couldn't open her mouth to comfort her, so she could only reach out and hold her and let her cry happily on her shoulder.

When her crying gradually subsided, she took out a handkerchief and sent it over: "How much more comfortable?" ”

Princess Anping watched her palace dress being ravaged by her own tears, she couldn't help blushing, hurriedly took the handkerchief and wiped her tears, and said in a low voice: "You don't persuade me either." ”

Gu Mingzhu smiled: "Can you hear me like that?" ”

"You dare to make fun of me!" Princess Anping was so ashamed that she forgot her sadness, and said complainingly, "I think it's even worse for you to marry." ”

Gu Mingzhu looked at her with a smile: "Don't forget to thank Qilang, this time it was he who bravely rescued him, so that our Highness could be safe and sound." ”

At the mention of Cui Yi, Princess Anping blushed and turned her head in a panic: "What kind of brave rescue, didn't you call him here!" ”

Gu Mingzhu couldn't help but hide her mouth and shook her head with a smile: "It's not me, it's Qilang who volunteered." ”

"I won't tell you, it's so easy to say goodbye, you will know how to play me!"

The candles in the Qianqiu Hall were bright, dispelling the desolation and silence after the palace change, and the laughter in the hall was also endless, making people almost forget the long night afterward.
