Chapter 3 Meeting the Emperor
Looking at the food that had been served by the palace people in front of him for a long time, the palace was speechless for a while-
Is it really a tree falling and scattering?
In my memory, when Xu Yuan was favored, these people came to slap her up.
Now that Xu Yuan has lost power, they began to treat her coldly, and then regardless of their old feelings, they deducted her yin every day and snatched her golden hairpin and jade ring.
Gong Que let out a long sigh and turned his head, but saw Xu Yuan frowning and looking at the food in front of him that smelled peculiar and couldn't help pinching his nose.
Rao is as stupid as she is, and she also knows that this thing in front of her can't get into her mouth.
Xu Yuan pursed her lips, and as soon as she turned around, she saw her little Chi Chi eating the rancid meal in front of her without changing his color.
It's as if she's eating a normal meal.
Although some people are not shocked on the surface, they are actually helpless to the extreme, such as Gong Que-
Naturally, she didn't want to eat them.
But if you don't eat, you will starve to death, and if you die, how can you avenge this little girl named "Chi Chi"?
At the moment, it is important to survive and survive, and everything else is just floating clouds.
"Late, the concubine is hungry." Xu Yuan timidly tugged at Gong Que's sleeve, and his aggrieved look made Gong Que's stomach twitch.
Gong Que looked at her speechlessly: "......"
No, does she think she can turn rice into rice with her bare hands or cook vegetables with her bare hands?
Xu Yuan continued to look at her pitifully: "Hungry ......"
Looking at those big watery eyes, Gong Que was finally defeated, and said helplessly: "I'll go find something to eat, you wait here obediently, do you know?" β
Hearing Gong Que loosen his mouth, Xu Yuan's eyes immediately burst into stars, and he couldn't stop nodding like a chicken pecking rice.
"I know, I know, the mother concubine must be obedient and not make trouble for the delay."
Really......
Seeing her well-behaved appearance, Gong Que couldn't help but let out a long sigh in his heart, got up and walked out of Yongxu Palace with his little short legs.
It is the cold orange pomelo again, when the old sycamore in autumn color, the sunset hangs low on the horizon, the white clouds are like snow, and the sunset is like a dazzling brocade by the setting sun for a while.
The sunset splashed the color of the setting sun, and Gong Que looked up, and suddenly saw the last leaf that was still proudly hanging on the tree quietly falling under the autumn wind, like a dead leaf butterfly falling into the soil.
The lonely appearance reminded her of herself.
I don't know what happened to the young masters of the Imperial Six Family now, she vaguely remembered that those people were also caught in the space-time rift.
Could they be here too?
That's it, don't think about these for now, there is still a Xu Yuan in the Yongxu Palace who is waiting to be fed!
Gong Que shook his little head, threw those inconsequential thoughts out of his mind, and continued to hurry.
Walking slowly along the bluestone path, along the way, she saw many blue tiles and red walls twisting and turning behind her, making people unable to see the end at a glance.
Wait a minute!
After walking for so long, Gong Que suddenly realized a problem:
The little girl didn't leave her with a memory of the map of the palace.
Looking at the autumn chrysanthemums on his side, one after another under the caress of the breeze, Gong Que really realized-
Lost yourself!
Belch......
It's okay, it's a small problem, don't panic, and let her think about how she got here.
Gong Que sniffed, looked at the strange scene around him, and finally chose to stand there blankly-
Forget, really forget, she admits she's a road idiot.
Before she could lift her foot again, the sound of conversation cameβ
"Liu Jin, what's going on with Su Guiren?"
It's the sound of two men talking, could it be that it's a guard in the palace?
With doubts, Gong Que pricked up his ears and listened carefully.
"Back to the emperor, everything is fine with Concubine He."
"Well, tomorrow let the imperial doctor boil her more decoction to nourish her body, she has always liked to be pure, so don't bother her."
"Yes."
Emperor?
Gong Que didn't expect that when she entered the palace, she would be able to meet the emperor at once, was she really so lucky?
You know, Chi Chi this stupid girl has grown so big, I've never seen what the emperor looks like!
Hearing the sound of footsteps approaching, Gong Que hurriedly sorted out his clothes and pretended to look around blankly.
As soon as Gong Linfu arrived at the Imperial Garden, he saw a little girl standing in the garden, about four or five years old, who was extremely well-behaved and cute.
He hadn't seen her.
Looking at the delicate and cute little girl in front of him, Gong Lin softened his expression, and lowered his head to look at the little girl in front of him: "What's your name?" β
"I don't have a name." A certain small group timidly answered truthfully, and from time to time raised his eyes to look at him secretly.
But just by looking at it, he lowered his head timidly, twisted his fingers at the corners of his skirt, and looked so afraid of life that Gong Lin couldn't help but bend the corners of his mouth.
Gong Que didn't lie.
Indeed, in the memory of the little girl, she does not have a name, and the so-called "Chi Chi" is just a milk name.
But Gong Que was still glad about this, at least the original owner didn't have any strange names to spare her.
If she is lucky, maybe she can still be called "Gong Que" in this life, the "Gong Que" of Gong Que!
"No name?" Gong Lin couldn't help frowning, glanced at Liu Jin beside him, and then heard the little man in front of him speak softly-
"But I have a nickname, Chi Chi."
The moment their eyes met, Liu Jin instantly understood what His Majesty meant, squatted down, and asked the glutinous rice dumplings in front of him with a loving face: "Xiao Chichi, who are you looking for?" β
Who to look for?
Gong Que smiled secretly in his heart-
She didn't want to find anyone, but the person was sent to her by herself, wouldn't she live up to the good intentions of the sky if she didn't cherish this great opportunity?
Thinking like this, Gong Que pursed his ruddy little mouth, raised his hand, and pointed at Gong Lin in front of him, his eyes were full of longing and timidity, and his pitiful appearance made Gong Lin's heart soft.
Thinking of the eldest daughter's arrogant temper and the second daughter's sentimentality, he suddenly felt that the little group in front of him was much more cute than his two daughters.
I saw Gong Lin bend his lips and smile, touched Xiao Tuanzi's little head, and his words were full of love: "Looking for me? β
"Well, they all said that the father of the delay was wearing a dragon robe, and it was a long time before he finally found it!" Gong Que's voice is sweet and glutinous, and it is particularly good.
"Father?"
A certain emperor was obviously a little confused, why didn't he remember that he had such a daughter?
Suppressing the doubts in his heart, Gong Lin said softly: "Who is your mother?" β
Gong Que: "Xu Yuan." β
Hearing this name, Gong Lin's expression was obviously a little solemn, but in the next second, he returned to warm eyebrows, and said softly: "It turned out to be a junior." β
Little three?!
Gong Que suddenly felt speechless.
She's not a junior, thank you.
This word has absolutely nothing to do with her, a dignified and respected goddess! Absolute!!!
"But what are you looking for me?"
Gong Lin's words dragged Gong Que's soul down from the Nine Heavens, making Gong Que even stunned for a moment.
But then, he saw the little ball look up pitifully, and his voice was a little choked, and he tugged at the corner of his shirt and said, "I'm hungry." β
"Hungry?" The Emperor was a little puzzled.
Although Xu Yuan is the daughter of a criminal minister, he has always remembered his old feelings and has never treated her badly, how can he end up in a situation where he can't even eat enough?
Besides, if this matter spreads, won't it put a stain on his title of "virtuous king"?
Gong Lin has always been the most prestigious, and now someone is presumptuous in the harem, which makes him feel a little sad.
Gong Que innocently blinked his clear eyes: "Yes, I have to eat rancid food every day, it's so unpalatable, is my father going to eat such a meal every day?" β
Gong Que's words undoubtedly added fuel to the fire.
He has always restrained himself with honesty and kindness to others, even if he has not treated the abandoned concubines in the harem badly, and now someone is committing crimes against the wind and ruining his reputation under his nose?
And also abused her such a lovely daughter! Absolutely unforgivable!!
All of a sudden, Gong Que saw that his father's eyebrows instantly froze.
As soon as Gong Lin spoke, his words seemed to be a little serious: "Liu Jin, you go with the third princess and see who dares to embarrass my daughter." β
"Yes."
Liu Jin on the side responded, and stepped forward to hold Gong Que's hand, but was carefully avoided by Gong Que.
She put her hands on her chest, shook her head, her cheeks flushed, and rubbed her little hands, with a shy look: "The palace maids and sisters say that girls' hands can't be touched by other men." β
Seeing her so innocent and cute, Liu Jin was no longer reluctant, but just smiled and coaxed her: "Is it okay for the third princess to lead the way for the old slave?" β
Gong Que thought for a moment and nodded slightly.
Before the two left, Gong Lin saw the little glutinous rice dumpling suddenly turn his head and look at him with affection, his eyes were shiny and clear-
"Father, I'll protect Chi Chi, right?"
She said sincerely and pitifully, coupled with this naturally docile and well-behaved eyebrows, Gong Lin couldn't help but be moved-
It's so good, so cute, so pitiful!!
"Don't worry, my father won't let others bully you." Gong Lin leaned down and lovingly touched Gong Que's little head.
"Hmm." Gong Que nodded seriously, and after saying "delay in retiring", he obediently turned around and followed Liu Jin.
In the moment he turned around, Gong Lin didn't see it, and Gong Que's little face instantly returned to its original indifferent look.
She stared down at her white fingertips.
When did his charm become so weak, it could only last for such a small amount of time.
And she could feel exactly that her spells were gradually slipping by, and it wouldn't be long before she would be reduced to an ordinary person.
Looking back, Gong Que looked at the bright yellow back that was gradually moving away, and brushed the broken hair on the sideburns-
It doesn't matter, even if she doesn't use spells, she can get Gong Lin's favor.
Everything starts with the heart, and as long as he cares, it will be easy to do.
The two went around and came to the gate of Yongxu Palace.
The prosperity of the past has finally dissipated, and the originally luxurious palace is now extremely bleak.
The cold wind blew through the empty courtyard, like a ghost crying, and the two hanging trees by the wall, unable to see the variety, stood smartly.
Gong Que pointed to the three big characters of "Yongxu Palace" on the plaque, and said softly: "Father-in-law, this is it." β
