Chapter 17: Forced Recommendation

On the same day, Gu Tingcheng left the palace, and Lu Zuo Zhaoyi didn't take long to find an opportunity, stew tiger whip soup, and personally invite the emperor to Zhongcui Palace.

The emperor was lucky, drank tiger whip soup, and after a rain with Tuoba Tao, Lu Zuo Zhaoyi and Tuoba Tao snuggled in his arms.

Raising his eyes and saying softly: "Your Majesty, the concubine recently saw Gu Zhongnian's daughter in Shang Shulang, who was the doll who was set for Yu Er back then. ”

"Oh?" Tuoba Tao sat up and said casually, "How about the girl?" ”

"It's also clear-eyed, smart and smart." Lu Zuo Zhaoyi Road.

Thinking of Gu Qingcheng's young age, such thoughts, and such calmness, he shuddered.

"That child is Wang Xiaolian's granddaughter, speaking of which, if it weren't for Wang Xiaolian's strong support in military spending, my Great Wei would not have been overwhelmed, and he would have subdued the surrounding territories so smoothly." Tuoba Tao groaned.

Lu Zuo Zhaoyi elegantly waited for His Majesty to react.

Emperor Tuoba Tao looked stern:

"This Wang Xiaolian has also passed away for more than ten years, and since he has set a baby parent, the royal family will not be able to live up to the promise of the year."

"But Your Majesty, after all, that child grew up in the countryside, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to be the princess of Nan'an. At that time, he was smiling and generous, and he lost the royal prestige. Lu Zuo Zhaoyi's face was full of worry.

Tuoba Tao got up in his clothes, and Lu Zuo Zhaoyi also dressed and followed closely.

"After Huang'er left, I ordered all my children and grandchildren to keep the system for Huang'er for three years, and they couldn't get married, and now there are still nearly two years.

During this period, Concubine Ai can slowly adjust the etiquette of the child's palace. ”

Tuoba Tao paced slowly with his hands in his hands and walked to a soft couch.

"Your Majesty, the concubine is afraid that her rotten wood will be difficult to carve."

Lu Zuo Zhaoyi helped Tuoba Tao to sit on the soft couch, gently took off his coat, and massaged his shoulder.

A pair of fair-skinned and slender, coated with Kodan's soft wattles, as if they were boneless, pressed and kneaded on Tuoba Tao's body, very skillful.

Tuoba Tao also hummed and chirped in his mouth, which was very useful. It is obvious that Lu Zuo Zhaoyi has served like this for a long time, and he has served quite well.

Lu Zuo Zhaoyi kneading and whispering:

"The concubine has an idea, the 80th birthday of the ancestor will be the 80th birthday in the next month, the 80th birthday of the ancestor is not trivial, you have to prepare in advance, the concubine thought, let the child coordinate the birthday banquet."

"Nonsense!" Tuoba Tao was slightly stunned.

Lu Zuo Zhaoyi's hand paused for a moment, and then continued.

"The birthday of the ancestor should be undertaken by the palace supervisor and supervised by the queen.

How can it be the turn of someone outside the palace to operate, besides, it is still a child who does not understand the world! Tuoba Tao said.

"Your Majesty, the concubine hasn't finished yet." Lu Zuo Zhaoyi murmured softly.

She was tepid, and hugged Tuoba Tao behind her with a smile, and continued to massage.

"The queen has been presiding over various banquets in the palace for many years, and she is also tired.

This year, let her rest well and enjoy happiness on the sidelines. And the palace supervisor has been hosting banquets, coming and going, and there is nothing new.

The concubine thought that if the child could cope with it, she would marry her as the concubine of the king of Nan'an as promised.

If she has no talent and no virtue, and she can't match Yu'er, she will be named a side concubine casually, and no matter how unbearable she is, she can also justifiably withdraw from her.

In this way, it will live up to the covenant of the year, and the world will not criticize it. ”

Tuoba Tao groaned for a long time.

"Ai Fei is thoughtful, do you want to test that child?" Tuoba Tao bowed his head slightly, and there was appreciation in his words.

After thinking about it, Tuoba Tao shook his head again and said:

"But after all, he was a country kid who had never seen the world, so how could he manage such a big feast.

The 80th birthday of the ancestor was celebrated by the whole country, full of guests and friends, and envoys from various countries.

If I mess up, my Da Wei's face will be lost. ”

"Your Majesty can send the regular servant Zongai to keep an eye on it secretly and report to Your Majesty at any time.

If she can handle it, let her handle it. If she can't be built, we can be considered to have given her a chance. ”

"Okay, Concubine Ai is really kind-hearted." Tuoba Tao finally nodded happily.

Lu Zuo Zhaoyi didn't know whether to laugh or cry on his face.

The Emperor continued:

"People live eighty, and there are very few people. The 80th birthday of the ancestor is not trivial, and it must be done well.

I gave the boy 300,000 dollars from the treasury to see if she could handle it. ”

"Three hundred thousand?"

Lu Zuo Zhaoyi was really angry that Gu Qingcheng wanted to blackmail herself, although she promised to give her a chance, if she didn't do it well, His Majesty wouldn't like her, and she would be to blame.

"It's a little less, in the past, it didn't cost three or five hundred thousand to hold such a feast, and it didn't do it at all." Tuoba Tao sighed slightly, "But after years of fighting, the treasury is not full, and if you can save it, you will save it." ”

"Your Majesty, the meaning of the concubine is not too little, and she intends to allocate 100,000 to Gu Qingcheng. Didn't Your Majesty say that if you can save it, you will save it? Lu Zuo Zhaoyi looked more virtuous.

"One hundred thousand?" Tuoba Tao said in astonishment.

"Hmm." Lu Zuo Zhaoyi hummed softly.

"There are more than 1,000 guests, the kings of the Quartet, and envoys from various countries, can she do it well?" Tuoba Tao said incredulously.

Only then did the emperor realize that Lu Zuo Zhaoyi was actually embarrassed by the Gu family's child.

"If that kid can't do it properly, she doesn't have the life of the princess, and she herself won't be able to climb the king of Nan'an." Lu Zuo Zhaoyi's softness couldn't help but weigh his hands hard.

Tuoba Tao frowned slightly, and said in his heart: Don't say it's that child, even if it's the concubine, you may not be able to do it, right?

It's just that he himself has the heart to try the future daughter-in-law, so he nodded silently.

"Okay, just give her 100,000, and see if she is a phoenix or a pheasant." Tuoba Tao's head.

was coerced by a little girl who was lighter than a feather, and she had to give her a recommendation, Lu Zuo Zhaoyi was like eating a fly at the moment, not to mention the disgusting and uncomfortable.

"That child can meet Aifei, such a kind future mother-in-law, it is her creation." Tuoba Tao's eyes converged, but his mouth was full of approval.

But I was inexplicably worried about the child.

"The concubine thanked Your Majesty on behalf of the child." Lu Zuo Zhaoyi said softly.

She was finally a little relieved that she had behaved so generously and decently, and sure enough, as Gu Qingcheng said, His Majesty appreciated her affection and righteousness.

It's just that the letter in Gu Qingcheng's hand is like a man's back and a fish in his throat.

She has to arrest her father Gu Zhongnian, or her nurse, in order to turn defeat into victory, turn things around, and no longer be subject to her.

She thought fiercely while massaging, but if she made a rash move, causing Gu Qingcheng to jump over the wall in a hurry, and all the letters were made public to the world at once, wouldn't she die without a place to be buried?

Do you just sit back and wait for you to die?

Let her take what she wants?

Thinking of these consequences, she couldn't help but grit her teeth with hatred, and the strength of her subordinates suddenly increased.

"What's wrong with Aifei? Seeing that you are absent-minded, are you also worried that the girl will not be able to do it? Tuoba Tao turned slightly, "After all, the girl of the Gu family is a child, but the concubine has thought clearly?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, the concubine has thought clearly." Lu Zuo Zhaoyi Road.

She turned back to His Majesty, and while carefully peeling the oranges for His Majesty, peeling and removing the core, she said softly:

"Even though Gu Qingcheng is a child, the children of the poor are in charge of the family early.

She grew up in the countryside, and she has long known about housework, so it should be a test for her to become the princess of Nan'an.

If she really can't do it, isn't there still a concubine staring at her, the ancestor's birthday banquet, she won't mess it up. ”

"Okay, then I'll give her a chance and let her try." Tuoba Tao is the first to go.

Slowly ate the oranges that Lu Zuo Zhaoyi sent into his mouth, and then said:

"I will pass on the decree, everyone in the harem, etc., will cooperate with Gu Tingcheng to organize the birthday banquet of the ancestors, and the birthday of the ancestors must be held decently and impressively, not only to satisfy the ancestors, but also not to disgrace the Great Wei!"

"The concubine thanked Your Majesty on behalf of Gu Chengcheng."

Lu Zuo Zhaoyi thanked His Majesty and put the peeled and pitted oranges into the emperor's mouth.

"Sweet! This year's oranges are particularly sweet. The emperor said pleasantly.

When Lu Zuo Zhaoyi turned around to clean his hands, he felt that hatred in his heart!

She is dignified Zuo Zhaoyi, for the sake of that stinky girl in the countryside, she wants to please Your Majesty so much, and intercede for her so much, when the matter is over, she must break her body into ten thousand pieces!
