When Mao Liu thought of this, his eyes were dark, his legs and feet were weak, and he fell to the ground first. Fortunately, Gu Changming opened the door in time from the house, and directly restrained the two sides with one move.
"Phoenix, what kind of place is this, you can mess around." Gu Changming took a deep breath and scolded, first reprimanded his own family, and then turned his head to Mao Liuwen and said, "She has always been lawless, and she doesn't understand the rules when she arrives in the palace, which makes Lord Mao laugh." โ
Where could Mao Liu laugh, the corners of his eyes twitched, and finally his heart fell back to its original position: "The Phoenix girl is innocent, I don't want to stop her from coming in, I'm worried that the son and the emperor will be frightened." โ
Gu Changming took a closer look, Mao Liu was really frightened, and the panic in his eyes never had time to fade. At this critical time, what Mao Liu thinks in his heart, he can roughly guess six or seven points. Gu Changming was willing to make his words clear, so as not to make the other party suspicious: "Phoenix has no bad intentions, she is anxious, and the emperor also knows." โ
"Let people in, it's okay." Song Renzong never showed up, and raised his voice to admonish.
Mao Liu's back was cold at this moment, and he was in a cold sweat, and the emperor was relieved when he heard it, and he was sure that he was too worried. Gu Changming shouldn't have any problems, otherwise, according to this person's martial arts, he is so close to the emperor, and there are too many opportunities to start.
"If Lord Mao still has doubts, why don't you come in and talk together?" Gu Changming is anti-customer-oriented.
Where did Mao Liu dare to comply, after all, he had been a secret guard by the emperor's side for more than ten years, and some things were deeply ingrained and could not be easily changed in a day or two. He envied Gu Changming's brightness in his gestures, and he knew that he would never be able to do it: "I'll just stay outside, and if Changming Gongzi has any needs, just command." โ
"What Master Mao has to do is the work that Su Xu has not finished, although Su Xu has an easy-going personality, he laughs first when he meets others. The position that should be half a step is unwilling to back down, which Lord Mao seems to be lacking. "Gu Changming has known Mao Liu since Tiangao, and his impression of this person is not bad.
Strictly speaking, with Dai Mianshan's relationship, his impression of the dark guard is not bad.
Mao Liu didn't expect that Gu Changming would teach him in turn, and he was speechless for a moment.
"Since the emperor trusts Lord Mao, he hopes to do better than Su Xu, so as to live up to Su Xu's sacrifice." After Gu Changming finished speaking, he pulled the little phoenix behind him, "Even if I am holding the privilege promised by the emperor himself, if Lord Mao feels that I will be a threat to the emperor, I will also stick to the end." If you let me go today, you might misplace another person tomorrow. โ
Mao Liu was so ashamed that he could barely raise his head, whether it was his official position or age, he should not be taught by Gu Changming today. But Gu Changming was meticulous in every word, and it was for his sake everywhere, and he couldn't even refute it, so he had already agreed with it in his heart.
"Sometimes, arrogance is not a bad thing. Inside and outside the imperial study, Lord Mao's status is above 10,000 people under one person, remember this, it will not be wrong. Gu Changming was grateful to him for taking good care of the little phoenix all the way, and a few words could be regarded as a return gift.
Song Renzong listened to it in the imperial study, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but bend up, and then he thought of the tragedy of Su Xu's death, his smile condensed again, and several complex emotions blended together, and his heart was definitely not comfortable, and his face couldn't be too dewy.
When Gu Changming came in with the little phoenix, Song Renzong returned to his usual calm and light demeanor, and the eyes that looked at the little phoenix were no longer penetrating her body and remembering another person. Once it is transparent, in its eyes, the little phoenix and Concubine Min have no resemblance at all, there are many women in the world, and some similarities abound at the corners of the eyebrows and eyes, but it is just a state of mind.
"Xiao Gu, it's rare to teach Mao Liu a few words just now, if he can listen to it, it won't be in vain for you to work hard." Song Renzong's words were not finished, and he saw that the little phoenix broke free of Gu Changming's hand and pounced on him. He was also apprehensive about a series of changes, and his first reaction was to jump straight up from his chair and hide behind it.
The little phoenix was stunned, the emperor was afraid to see her?
Gu Changming was funny and angry, and pulled the little phoenix behind him again. Where has the emperor seen a battle with people showing their teeth and claws, he said in a low voice: "Say what you want to say, don't move around." โ
"Brother Gu, I'm restless, I always feel that Sister Liu and Guozi are afraid that something is going to happen." The little phoenix was served in the imperial dining room before, and her heart was beating wildly, and her stomach was like a river overturning the sea. She hurriedly threw down the uneaten snacks and went straight to look for Gu Changming, only to meet Mao Liu, who intercepted her.
"If you care, it's messy, they will be fine in the Gu family." Gu Changming didn't expect the little phoenix to come over violently, but what he wanted to say was his own imagination.
"Brother Gu, let's go back and see if it's okay. What if last night's thief comes again, sees that I am not there, and takes the lives of other people! Little Phoenix's face turned red, and she was also anxious, "We can't be one step behind our opponents everywhere, we must get the first move!" โ
"Master Mao sent someone over to take a look, my father was not at home, and there was nothing abnormal." Gu Changming couldn't bear to blame when he saw the little phoenix looking so anxious, "Miss Liu's martial arts are also excellent, and there is no problem in protecting the fruit." โ
"That man's martial arts are very high, very high." Little Phoenix shouted at him and repeated, "That person's martial arts are very high. Before the words fell, the whole person seemed to be a harrier with a broken thread, and fell straight to the ground.
This time, Gu Changming was scared a lot, and he quickly stopped people and hugged them. Song Renzong was also dumbfounded: "She, is she an old problem?" โ
"It's not." A possibility rose in Gu Changming's heart, turned his back to unbutton the collar of the little phoenix, and put his fingers on her carotid artery, her heartbeat was fast and chaotic, as if it was uncontrollable.
"That good little girl, how can you say that she fainted and fainted?" Song Renzong was dumbfounded, but he could only see Gu Changming's back. This person is also a domineering character, blocking the whole person of the little phoenix, and he can't see anything.
"How did the emperor faint in the Imperial Garden?" Gu Changming asked rhetorically.
Song Renzong really couldn't answer: "If I knew what was going on, Su Xu wouldn't have died." โ
"Your Majesty, there is something in the palace. There are unclean things. Gu Changming confirmed this again, "I always thought that someone deliberately drugged it, but in fact, the medicine was in the palace." โ
When Song Renzong heard him say this, he looked left and right, and asked in a trembling voice, "You mean to say that someone put poison in the palace, and it is right next to me." โ
"At least the emperor is safe and sound for now." Gu Changming hugged the little phoenix straight to the small couch behind the bookshelf, "The grass people have a reluctant request. โ
"Put people down, in extraordinary times, don't say any palace rules." Song Renzong saw Gu Changming carefully put the person down, "She won't also change, right?" โ
"No signs have been detected at this time." When Gu Changming bent down to arrange the sleeves of the little phoenix, he saw the silver light shining between her fingers, and took out a few silver needles, "Your Majesty, look, this is what the old Imperial Physician Wen left for her." โ
"Is that what you copied on the pages of paper, the best way to deal with it?" Song Renzong suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly called Imperial Doctor Di to come in.
Although Di clearly said that he was going to decoct the medicine, in fact, he waited outside for a long time, and his voice was hoarse when he heard the emperor's shouting, and he almost poured all the decoction medicine on the ground with a shake of his hand.
"Imperial Doctor Di, she fainted, can you go over and see what the situation is?" Song Renzong stepped back as he spoke, until he felt safe and stood firmly, before calling Mao Liu in, "Send four, no, six masters over, surround her in the middle, and observe closely." โ
Gu Changming heard it all in his ears, and the emperor can be regarded as a wise man, and he is careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years. Mao Liu didn't ask too much, and quickly sent six people to surround the little phoenix and Imperial Doctor Di, but instead left Gu Changming aside.
"This girl doesn't look like she's sick, she doesn't have the slightest symptom to follow." Di certainly frowned and said, "Except for the faster heartbeat, I can't find anything else wrong for the time being." โ
Song Renzong's face became more and more pale, and he turned his head and asked Gu Changming, "What's going on with her?" โ
"When she was in Ah Jiushan, she used to be like this, not what the emperor thought." Gu Changming was indifferent, set aside the encirclement of the guards, walked to the little phoenix, squatted beside her, and whispered, "Phoenix, so many dangers have come, don't be lazy and hurry up." โ
"Your Majesty, maybe it's better to send this girl to another place to recuperate?" Although Di didn't know what the situation was, the worry that the emperor couldn't hide in his eyes was clear at a glance.
"Okay, okay, send people to the hospital." Song Renzong agreed, as if he was afraid that the little phoenix would jump up and bite at any time.
Gu Changming had no objection, picked up the person again, and when he was about to walk to the door in three or two steps, he suddenly thought of his father's words for some reason, after so many years in the court, he did his best, but the emperor only needed one sentence and one action to make people feel chilling.
Song Renzong probably sensed something, and added: "The Tai Hospital must cure her." โ
"Your Majesty, don't worry, we'll do our best." The corners of Di's mouth twitched, and his eyes glanced at Gu Changming intentionally or unintentionally. Who is this person, he knows very well in his heart, recently the emperor is a person who only believes wholeheartedly, but he can bring such a woman into the palace, but he can't think of it, but the emperor's tone is even more natural.
"I know the way to the Imperial Hospital, Imperial Physician Di still stays by the emperor's side, and in extraordinary times, I can't take it lightly." Gu Changming adjusted his mentality as quickly as possible, he had not been in the dynasty for many years, and he did not have as many sighs as his father. It's just that Imperial Doctor Di's reaction was somewhat unexpected for him.
"Changming Gongzi, I'll let the two guards send you over." Mao Liu walked out and scolded directly, "Why are they all stunned, there is still some way to get to the Tai Hospital here, do you want people to hold on to it and go find a soft pocket!" โ
"It's okay, she's not heavy." Gu Changming really didn't move, probably others didn't believe it when they saw it, "Lord Mao, the emperor's mood fluctuates greatly, you must pay attention." Also, if my father has news, send me a message. โ
Mao Liu was inconvenient to ask, but when he took the initiative to mention it, he was good to say: "Master Changming, Master Gu can't find it all over, if you come to find it, where will you probably go?" โ
"You can't see inside the city, you can go outside the city and have a look." Gu Changming lowered his eyes and looked at the person in his arms, "Even if the courtyard is burned to ruins, as long as it is a man-made thing, there will still be some clues." โ
