CHAPTER XXIX

In the winter of the thirty-second year of the orthodoxy of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the emperor announced that Gu Ning, the third daughter of the Gu family, was visited.

No one knew what had happened, let alone what Gu Ning had paid for it.

Gu Ning came to the hall and knelt down with everyone in the Gu family to listen to the holy decree, although it was the result of knowing it, but this moment was really ridiculous.

Is it for the sake of those two?

It's really inexplicable, is it my own request?

Did the two of them ask themselves?

Seeing Gu Zhenghai's happy appearance, he took out a piece of silver from his sleeve and gave it to the eunuch who announced the holy decree, and the eunuch did not shirk, took it in his hand, and said happily, "Gu Sanniang, please prepare as soon as possible and enter the palace with the Sprinkle family." “

Gu Zhenghai hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Soon! Soon! Why don't you hurry up and help your lady go in and change your clothes!" turned his head to Ji Xiang and Ruyi and said.

Looking at Gu Ning, who was limping away, the eunuch's brows furrowed again, is this disrespectful in front of the palace?

Gu Ning didn't think about it so much, and now she can't care so much, so when she came to her room, she asked Gu Qiang to find a way to inform Shangguan Hao as soon as possible, about her entering the palace today, for some reason, Gu Ning always had a sense of foreboding, and only hoped that the emperor would not embarrass her little girl.

But she forgot that there was not only the emperor in the palace, but also those concubines, and she forgot that the prince's mother, Concubine Jing, was also a person who lived in that palace.

"Lady, which one is good to wear?" Ruyi held Gu Ning's hand tightly, and Ji Xiang was rummaging through the cabinets to find a suitable dress.

Because Gu Ning had just come back from Tsing Yi Nunnery, the clothes were still that plain color, I don't know if it would be too light, and no one had taught them, the rules of entering the palace, how to dress, when Ji Xiang was in a hurry, Gu Ning said a word.

"You don't need how to wear it, just that one!" Gu Ning casually ordered a skirt, "It's a blessing or a curse, it's a disaster that can't be avoided." ”

Gu Ning sighed softly in his heart, has this Gu Master been smashed unconscious by the Holy Decree? Doesn't he know what this means? Or does he no longer care about his daughter's life or death?

Then he hooked his lips and smiled mockingly, yes, now Gu Zhenghai is thinking about how to climb up, how much glory his daughter was summoned by the emperor, how could he think of the things that followed, how could he think of what Gu Ning would face, how could he think of how frightened she, a young lady who was not in time, went to such a solemn place for the first time?

He doesn't want to think about it, and he doesn't want to think about it, is he just a weight in his mind?

For some reason, there was a cold feeling on Gu Ning's cheeks, and when she reached out and touched it, she actually burst into tears!?

Is she still looking forward to it? Or is she ...... Gu Ning, are you still nostalgic?

When he was dressed and helped by Jixiang and Ruyi to the hall, the eunuch was already a little impatient.

When Gu Ning saw it, he had to say, "I've been waiting for my father-in-law for a long time, Sanniang is ready." ”

"Well, let's go quickly, the miscellaneous family has nothing to do, and if there is Your Majesty Lao, then the sin should be ten thousand deaths. ”

"Yes, yes, what my father-in-law said, don't hurry up. Gu Zhenghai glanced at the subordinates on both sides, he also knew that Gu Ning's legs were inconvenient, and it was impossible for him to let her walk to the carriage at the door by herself, so he had already prepared his shoulders and waited.

Gu Ning pinched her sleeves, she knew that she was going to the palace and it would be beneficial for her to ask this father-in-law about even a little situation, so she took all the silver tickets by her side, if there was an emergency, sometimes it would be a life-saving straw.

When he sat in the carriage, Gu Ning heard the father-in-law say, "Your Majesty only invited the Gu family's Sanniang to meet you, and the rest of the idle people avoided it." ”

"Lady...... This father-in-law, I will send it outside the palace gate, and if I don't go in, I will wait at the door. ”

"Huh......?"

Seeing the eunuch's ugly face, Gu Ning comforted Jixiang in a low voice, "It's okay, I'll come when I go, I believe that Your Majesty is a reasonable person and will not embarrass me as a little woman." ”

Gu Ning knew that his every move would definitely be reported to the emperor, and if the emperor heard this, he might be angry and think that he was clever. But she couldn't, even if she was careful.

"Gu Sanniang, can we go? It's already this hour......

patted Jixiang and Ruyi's hands comfortingly, not missing the worry in their eyes, Gu Ning just shook his head and said to the father-in-law, "Then it will be annoying to the father-in-law." “

She believes that her legs and feet are inconvenient, and the palace must have prepared her shoulders, after all, the emperor knows best what her situation is, and she will not embarrass herself here.

With the sound of the carriage "tuk tuk" in his ears, Gu Ning closed his eyes, exhaled slowly and deeply, adjusted his emotions, and when he entered the palace, he couldn't rely on his temperament.

I don't know if Gu Qiang saw Shangguan Hao?

For some reason, I just believed that he would come to save me, no matter where I was.

So you believe in him so much?

Gu Ning laughed self-deprecatingly, in fact, she didn't want Shangguan Hao to risk it for her.

He already has too many things to carry, and Gu Ning doesn't want to be a burden to others, she just wants to live simply, but why is it so difficult?

"Li~", the carriage stopped, and Gu Ning also opened his eyes, and there was only calm in it.

"Gu Sanniang, I'm sorry, the carriage can only go here, you need to walk the road behind, I don't know ......" The eunuch glanced at Gu Ning's feet, the meaning was obvious, no one inside would come to pick her up.

I didn't expect that the emperor was so stingy, and there were still people who ???

Some people may want to see her appearance, but fortunately, I know that someone must have a small movement, and I specially asked Jixiang to prepare crutches, if I let myself walk in like this, then I can also do without my feet.

Seeing Gu Ning get out of the car and take out two sticks, the eunuch's eyes widened, when did he put it on? Why don't you know?

"My father-in-law is leading the way, and Gu Ning will follow. ”

The father-in-law coughed, came back to his senses, and then said, "The miscellaneous family said that when you walk behind the door, you will naturally have a shoulder, and the lady only needs to take two steps by herself." ”

Gu Ning looked at him strangely, he didn't say that just now, but she quickly cleaned up her expression, nodded calmly, still holding two crutches, and walked slowly.

It seems that this Gu Sanniang is not a simple person! The father-in-law thought about it, but it was useless, this is the palace, and he can't spit out bones if he eats people.

Along the way, Gu Ning thought about whether to stuff him with silver, but after hesitating for a long time, he still decided to respond to all changes with no change, and now he used up the weights around him, so how about going inside? Fortunately, this decision saved her life and gave her time to wait for Shangguan Hao to appear.
