Chapter XI
Jixiang and Ruyi didn't understand what Gu Sanniang meant, but it didn't matter, as long as they were by the lady's side.
Gu Ning, who has been tortured for a week, is better than dead, this body is too badly deficient, even if he eats the meals prescribed by the imperial doctor every day, it is still difficult to see the effect in the short term, plus this is the first time that this body has menstruation, and Gu Ning, who has pain in his lower abdomen every day, died and came back to life.
Auspiciousness and Ruyi are in their eyes, anxious in their hearts, but there is no way, the lady does not let the doctor be invited, and can only use the soup woman to apply it to the stomach every day, plus drink some brown sugar water every day, so that she has survived these days.
On this day, as soon as the little day left, Gu Ning felt that he had finally come back to life, and he only thought in his heart about how to spend the few days of each month in the future......
When Jixiang entered the house, he asked, "Jixiang, how many silver taels do we have?"
Jixiang was slightly stunned, and calculated the cost of the past few days in his mind, the first day to the owner of the nunnery is one hundred taels, plus the cotton and brown sugar that the lady bought in the past two days have been used, fortunately, the recent medicinal materials are sent by the Chen family, otherwise you will have to use up a lot of medicinal materials just to buy them.
"Lady, we still have less than a hundred taels of silver. Jixiang knew that what Gu Ning asked was what he hid, not those given by Master Gu and Mrs. Gu, those on the surface.
"Hmm~ It seems that we still have to think of ways to make money, but now I am locked up in this nunnery and can't get out, Ruyi has no idea, and it depends on you behind auspiciousness. ”
"What the lady said, as long as the lady will not be auspicious, auspicious will be willing to do anything. ”
Gu Ning looked at Ji Xiang and slowly said his thoughts.
She wants to do a brothel business, only there will not reject what she is doing now, and there is a brothel where money comes quickly and can be opened in the capital, and the background is hard enough.
The brothel is a mixed place, but it is also a news distribution center, when a man drinks and is fascinated, he often reveals the secret of his heart in the gentle village.
There is also a place where there are many people, it is easy to get carried away, and many people like to show off themselves, chatting and chatting and inadvertently saying what they know.
But now Gu Ning can only go to a brothel, because he can only make something for women, and selling it to those women is the fastest, and they also have the most effective way of publicity.
"Minister, long live Chen Zhong, long live Your Majesty, long live long live. Chen Ge knelt in the hall and bowed his head to the ground.
The emperor sat on the dragon chair and looked at the friend below who had been with him for most of his life, the only friend, since the death of this friend's daughter, there was no longer the demeanor of the year, as if the back had never been straightened, and when he saw his temples white, he could only sigh in his heart that time was really a terrible thing.
Whether it is he, the Ninety-Five, or his courtiers, or the common people, it will not stop for it, and ruthlessly crush everyone, things, and things.
He knew in his heart that this friend was here to say goodbye to him today, but there would still be reluctance in his heart, although he was an emperor, and he was destined to be a lonely person sitting in this position.
"Chen Zhong, how long have we not left, come and go with me again!" The emperor put down the shelf, and even "I" was useless, but "I".
"Minister-obey!" Chen Ge Lao heard the emperor's words, and the old man burst into tears and got up trembling slightly.
"Today, I want to go with Chen Zhong alone, so go down. ”
Gonggong Xu looked at the emperor with some concern, but knew that the emperor had made up his mind, "...... it"
Pushing open the door of the hall, he watched Chen Ge gradually walk out of his sight with the old emperor in his arms.
The little eunuch below also looked at Gonggong Xu, waiting for instructions.
"Look at something, keep an eye on it, but don't get too close, if Your Majesty has anything to do with your skin. ”
"Yes yes yes ......"
Walking on the road that he has walked for most of his life, the emperor's heart is not calm, he wants to persuade people to stay, but if he stays, his heart is no longer a useless person.
And Chen Ge Lao was also thinking about how many things he had done when he was young and had been by the emperor's side, and now the people around him were the time when he needed him the most, but he had to leave first.
It's just that he can't, he has already watched his daughter leave, and he doesn't want to send another son away.
No one knows better than him that the palace has become terrifying, because he has accompanied the experience of this person around him, the palace at that time was really bloody, and everyone in the capital was in danger, if it weren't for the three princes at that time, the person standing here now would not be himself, and there would be no prosperity in the eighteenth year of the Great Wednesday.
Thirty-eight years, thirty-eight years since I succeeded to the throne!
Every day, I think about the country with all my heart, and I am afraid of every decision I make, but I can't be afraid or timid in that position.
Those ministers are all refined monkeys, and if he, the king, has the slightest concern about performance, then endless troubles await him.
The two of them walked slowly, along the red wall, looking at the yellow glazed tiles, and what they got seemed to be power, but in fact they were more lonely.
Chen Ge quietly wiped his tears with the placket of his clothes, turned his head to look at the old emperor's face, and all he saw was silence and loneliness.
Their time is coming to an end......
Finally, I walked back to the main hall.
Gonggong Xu was also relieved when he watched the two of them walk back, and when he went over to help the emperor, he obviously felt that the emperor was trembling.
Your Majesty hasn't been so tormented for a long time, not to mention persevering, it seems that His Royal Highness King Ning has said it again.
"I'm right!" said the Emperor.
Actually, you already knew the result, didn't you?
Chen Ge Lao knelt down and prostrate on the ground, and his tears could no longer stop crying.
"Your Majesty, the old minister still has a wish!"
"Say, I'll never see you again in this life, so I'll say whatever I want today!" As soon as he finished speaking, he coughed, took out a handkerchief to cover his mouth, and when he put it down, all he saw was scarlet.
Gonggong Xu was anxious in his eyes, but he knew the emperor's temper best, so he could only sigh quietly in his heart~
The emperor put away his veil casually and looked at Chen Ge Lao.
"I hope Your Majesty can take care of Gu Ning and Gu Sanniang. Then he bowed his head again.
Gu Sanniang?oh~ It's the daughter of the Gu family, and it's also the granddaughter of Chen Gelao.
Before, this old thing was really good at pretending, and I thought I really didn't care about the only child left by my daughter!
"I know~ It's okay, you just step down, tell your kid, let him roll over for me on an errand, don't find an excuse to hide at home, now there are no worries, if you dare to be so slack, I will immediately ask for his head." ”
After speaking, the emperor didn't look at Chen Ge Lao's expression, and walked out of the palace gate with his father-in-law Xu, and the dragon was already prepared outside the door.
