Chapter 174: No Countermeasures

"Blue Yi, I want to go back to Fenglan Palace tomorrow." Gu Lingge put down the bowl and looked at the bottom of the empty white porcelain bowl and said so. It's enough to indulge in the past few days, the two of you, you and I are willing to be affectionate, and Gu Lingge doesn't like it on such days. But everything has a beginning and an end, and it is almost done.

Qing Ruifan's chest is indeed warm and reliable, but as she said herself, she can't let this pillow man really murder everything she has. If it's just property, it's okay, but there are so many people behind Liulizhuang, she promised to give them a home, and she didn't have to let them escape from the tiger's mouth and fall into the wolf's den.

Lan Yi replied softly, and then asked if she wanted to transfer the cuckoo back to her. Gu Lingge shook her head, now that there is one more alliance in the palace, there is one more target, she has limited energy and can't take care of that much, and the juan is now a fairy couple with Lan Yi, so she doesn't need to intervene.

"Concubine Wan is the quietest in the palace, every day in the Chunlan Hall to copy Buddhist scriptures, said to pray for the mother, Concubine Chen often goes to the Queen Mother to ask for peace recently, the rest of the time often beats the slaves, everyone in the palace is in danger, the Queen Mother has had a headache recently, but she has never been out of Ci'an Hall. It's in Niangniang's palace, because the palace maid in charge is not there, they all sent people to Niangniang's palace. Lan Yi talked about these harem private matters one by one, as if the person who spoke was not him.

"Weichen can make a list for you later, and besides, does Niangniang need a new palace maid? Wechen can go and arrange. "Lan Yi wants to send Gu Lingge a second Lixia, absolutely loyal, and can share her worries. Gu Lingge smiled, and looked at the dark pupils of the blue coat: "No need, I have my own method." ”

"Thanks, though." Gu Lingge raised his eyebrows, Lan Yi really deserved to be the chief steward in this palace, he knew everything, but he also knew what could and what could not be said. Gu Lingge has always admired Lan Yi, and it is a good thing that he did not have backwater by Qing Ruifan's side.

Front hall.

"There is no need to talk about this again." Qing Ruifan looked at Qing Ruiting, and there was hidden anger in his eyes. Qing Ruiting's suggestion just now made him very embarrassed, he knew that this matter was imperative, but he felt ashamed in his heart.

"Brother Huang, you also understand what the courtier means. The affairs of Liulizhuang are widely implicated, and if they are not eradicated now, they will definitely threaten the stability of the imperial power in the future. There are many people in Liulizhuang, and financial resources and manpower cannot be ignored. According to the report from the spy of the younger brother yesterday, the population of Liulizhuang in Changling is even more than that of the Gyeonggi Infantry Regiment, so it has to be guarded. Qing Ruiting said bitterly.

Gu Liangyue's coming from Liulizhuang does not mean that he also wants Liulizhuang to treat him politely, especially at this time. Qing Ruifan's rule has just gained a foothold, and the existence of Liulizhuang is like a sharp dagger under the pillow, and if you are not careful, you will die without a place to be buried.

Qing Ruifan frowned, he knew that Liulizhuang had to be cleaned up, but he didn't want Gu Lingge to know that the two couldn't be both.

Qing Ruiyang, as the left minister, also stood on Qing Ruiting's side at this time, he looked at Qing Ruifan's face, and echoed Qing Ruiting: "The minister brother heard the Ministry of Rites yesterday that the treasury has been in deficit recently, and the minister brother asked a few more words to know that now the richest person in the world is Liulizhuang, if you can merge Liulizhuang, then you will not worry about the treasury without food." Qing Ruiyang is telling the truth, and he doesn't want to implicate Gu Lingge, but this is the truth, for Han Qin, Liulizhuang is a piece of fat that flows around, and it is also an extremely sharp nail.

"What do you think?" Qing Ruifan couldn't make up his mind and looked at Ouyang. This right prime minister performed prominently in the Prime Minister's Rebellion, so he was promoted, and he was indeed a capable person, with his own opinions and positions, and he also had the courage to say what others dare not say.

"The minister thinks that this dynasty does not have the strength to take Liulizhuang at present, but it can't be left alone." Ouyang is a pragmatist in this matter. He also wanted to help Gu Lingge, but the only feasible way now was to think long-term. He didn't talk nonsense, Chang Dong and Chu Zhaonan conscripted troops to Tatar last year, and while cleaning up the border, they almost consumed most of the country's strong labor.

The current military strength cannot support the war with Liulizhuang at all.

"So, what does the right minister want?" It is a fact that the army is not strong, which Qing Ruifan admits. But Ouyang proposed another way, and he was very interested.

"Peace talks." This is the most likely path now. Ouyang knew that Qing Ruiting coveted the wealth and power of Liulizhuang, but he couldn't become a fat man in one bite, and he had seen it, the people of Liulizhuang could be said to be diehard, as long as Gu Lingge didn't speak, Liulizhuang could fight for her to the death.

"To put it lightly, the owner of Liulizhuang is elusive, does anyone know where he is?" Qing Ruiting has dealt with many people in Liulizhuang, but to be honest, he has never seen a real person. Although Gu Lingge had been guessed, he didn't really identify it in the end.

Of the four people in this hall, he is the only one who has not really seen the owner, but he is also the most persistent in Liulizhuang.

Qing Ruifan talked with them for a while, and then let the two imperial brothers go down, leaving Ouyang, the two talked about it very late, and when Ouyang walked out of the Yongyuan Palace, it was already a new moon. got into his sedan chair, and Ouyang ordered people to go home quickly.

When he returned to Oufu, his wife had been waiting for him at the door for a long time, and seeing the worry between his wife's eyebrows, Ouyang's heart warmed, and he hugged people into the main hall. This wife was begged by him for a long time, and his father-in-law's family originally disliked his low background and was not worthy of his own daughter, but later he went in and out of the palace more and more times, and stayed longer and longer, and his father-in-law's family somehow agreed.

The wife is a knowledgeable person, and Ouyang raised her eyebrows, respected each other like guests, and lived a warm little life. As soon as the two of them finished eating, Mu Yi jumped in from the wall and stood in the hall with his arms crossed, with the bearing of a soldier. The wife was a little frightened, Ouyang took her in his arms and comforted her for a few words, and then asked people to take her back to the backyard.

"Mu Gongzi should be careful when visiting, Humble Jing is not in very good health." There was a slight anger in Ouyang's words. Mu Yi touched the back of his head, laughed heartily, and then bowed his hand as an apology.

Ouyang asked people to sit down, let the housekeeper serve tea, and the two chatted until late at night.

Yongyuan Palace.

Qing Ruifan went down to the court and entered the apse, but he didn't see Gu Lingge, thinking that she was on the bed, and there was no one when she opened the curtain. The blue coat was behind him, his face expressionless. Qing Ruifan asked where the person had gone, but Lan Yi didn't speak.

Qing Ruifan sat on a chair, holding a teacup in one hand, and asked Lan Yi: "How many days?" ”

"Ten years." Gu Lingge and Qing Ruifan were in the Yongyuan Hall day and night, and it was exactly ten days. At that time, when Lan Yi gave him the medicine, he said that he would be able to make people spend this early autumn, but now Gu Lingge woke up before he was halfway through. Lan Yi didn't dare to tell Qing Ruifan that Gu Lingge didn't hit the plan from beginning to end, which would make Qing Ruifan very uncomfortable.

"That's it, you find someone to use for her, Lixia is gone, it's inconvenient for her to be alone." Qing Ruifan didn't force it. For him, Gu Lingge went back to Fenglan Palace instead of Yunhu Hall, which made him a little relieved.

Lan Yi shook his head, "Weichen asked Niangniang, and Niangniang said she didn't need it." Qing Ruifan was stunned for a moment, and then didn't say anything, and continued to criticize and fold by himself.

Fenglan Palace.

When Gu Lingge came back, everyone knelt on the ground and saluted her. She was a little tired now, so she picked one that fit her eyes and asked her to arrange for her to freshen up.

This person's voice was a little sharp, which made Gu Lingge very unaccustomed, looking at her vulgar movements and detached posture, Gu Lingge was even more disgusted, but he really wanted to sleep, so he didn't care, thinking about cleaning up the next day.

"Look at her villain's dewilled appearance, Niangniang will definitely not like it." The two old men in the palace bit their ears in the lower room. The person assigned by Gu Lingge knew that they only wanted to seduce the emperor to climb the dragon bed, and it was not a business at all.

"I'll see tomorrow, this person is watching the sky, go to bed early." The companion seemed to be extremely sleepy, pulled the other party's sleeve, and the two covered the quilt and fell asleep.

The next morning.

Gu Lingge called everyone to the bottom of the stairs in the main hall, and she casually wrapped a cloak and sat on the chaise longue. After accepting everyone's salutes, she glanced around, the person assigned last night now looked like a philistine, and a pair of peach blossom eyes were good-looking, but now she was obviously scratching her head in the crowd, as if she was already the palace maid in charge of this palace, Gu Lingge was even more disgusted.

"This palace has been seriously ill for a long time, and I have worked hard for everyone." Gu Lingge cleared his throat and found a sour taste in his mouth. There was no one around her, she sat on the top, looking dignified, but also lonely.

A group of people knelt down and shouted in unison: "May Niangniang be blessed and healthy." Gu Lingge waved them to get up, and then said: "The affairs of the harem are complicated, and there must be someone who can do things by your side, who wants to try it?" Bring it up now, and this palace will give you a chance to make it clear. "She doesn't look like she is in Yongyuan Hall now, she has nothing to do, so she naturally wants to have fun for herself, and she really needs such a person.

There was a dullness below, and just when Gu Lingge thought that they didn't want this opportunity, the girl stood up last night and said in a harsh voice: "Back to Niangniang, the slave is brave and wants to give it a try." As she stood up with her head held high, three or four people stood up one after another, bowing their heads, but humble and understanding the rules.

"Just try it. Since he is a person in the palace, he will go and clean up the bedroom and study for the palace, and whoever comes out first can be the head of the palace. Gu Lingge said as if he was strolling through the heart, just watching the five people enter the study and the dormitory, and the girl rushed to the front.

Half a pillar of incense passed, and the people who cleaned up the study came back first, after all, Gu Lingge hadn't entered the study during this time, so the things weren't too messy, and before waiting for a while, the people who cleaned up the dormitory also came back.

Gu Lingge looked at the five people and asked, "Can you finish cleaning up?" All five nodded. Gu Lingge stood up and walked towards the dormitory, and the five of them followed behind her.

The location of the dormitory is completely different from before. I don't know what they think, the cinnabar box that should have been placed on the dresser was placed on the sandalwood carved phoenix washstand, and the makeup was also a mess, the hair crown was placed on the right hand, and a bunch of bulky and gorgeous hairpins were placed on the left, Gu Lingge felt bored when he saw it.

The bed was cleaned up, and the sachets and lucky bags were placed in Gu Lingge's usual place, so that she would not lose sleep at night or have nightmares. In the past, Lixia cleaned up these things, and she was quick with her hands and feet, and half a pillar of incense could solve everything.

Sighing, Gu Lingge walked to the study. She doesn't usually like to read poetry and the like, but she reads a lot of travelogues, but now the things on the bookshelf are completely reversed. The porcelain and jade ruyi on the eight-treasure shelf are placed where they should be, the paperweight and duanyan are also pleasing to the eye, and the off-white rice paper looks good.

After turning around, Gu Lingge walked back to the main hall with people. Looking at the four people with their heads down in front of them and the girl who looked like a rooster. Gu Lingge asked them, "Who cleaned up the bed in the palace?" The palace maid in the middle stepped forward, still with her head down, and the pale green palace dress made her small and exquisite.

Gu Lingge glanced at her, and then said directly: "That's it." Looking at the people below, Gu Lingge asked the remaining four to stand back, and then looked at the girl in front of him who was still bowing her head: "Raise your head, from now on you will be the palace maid in charge of Fenglan Palace, what does it look like to keep your head down like this?" ”

The moment the girl looked up at Gu Lingge, Gu Lingge's body couldn't stop shaking. The eyes of the two met, one warm and the other trembling.

That girl has the exact same face as Rixia!
