Chapter 5 King Gu's First Love

When I came to the nave, it was almost noon.

The hall is bustling and crowded.

Yuan Ziling walked into the hall, picked up the fruit on the table and gnawed it, a morning passed, not a drop of water, no grain of rice, and he was already so hungry that his chest was close to his back.

Seeing Yuan Ziling coming in, everyone whispered.

Yuan Ziling nibbled on fruit while looking for Gu Hao in the crowd.

It's not because I want to see Gu Hao so much, it's just that in the huge palace, I only know him, and there are crises in this palace, so it's safer to have one more person to take care of each other.

I didn't find Gu Hao's figure, but Lu Zhi flashed in front of him.

Yuan Ziling, after thinking about it, followed.

Lu Zhi walked into a corner with a panicked expression, and Yuan Ziling secretly followed, hiding in the corner of the wall, and looking around.

found that Gu Hao was with a woman, and if you looked closely, the woman looked smart and moving, and her delicate facial features were like finely carved handicrafts.

"Stained, fake serious, it turns out that I secretly mess with the person I like here." Yuan Ziling rolled his eyes.

I saw that the woman approached Gu Hao, and just about to hug Gu Hao, he immediately took two steps back.

The woman withdrew her hands embarrassedly, raised her hand again, pressed the tears that fell with a handkerchief, and said to Gu Hao: "Brother Hao, are you still blaming Lan'er?" ”

"Second imperial sister-in-law, now our uncle and sister-in-law, the past has long been forgotten by this king."

Gu Hao put his hands behind his back, standing tall in the sun.

Sheng Ruolan's tears fell down like soybeans, pursed her lips slightly, and said coquettishly: "I don't want you to call me the second imperial sister-in-law, I like to hear you call me Lan'er." ”

When Yuan Ziling heard this, he almost vomited the overnight meal he brought from the twenty-second century.

Sure enough, the White Lotus is not a product of an era, but an enduring superposition.

"Heh, it's really cheap and invincible, and it's called Lan'er."

Yuan Ziling couldn't see the White Lotus the most, so she didn't hold back and walked out of the corner.

Gu Hao and Lu Zhi looked at each other, and their expressions were nervously frowned.

On the contrary, Sheng Ruolan was calm and calm, her face did not change, and she smiled at Yuan Ziling in surprise, but that smile was somewhat ironic.

Yuan Ziling glanced at Gu Hao, curled the corners of his lips and said, "Don't be afraid, I'm not here to catch the traitor, I just want to come out to see your Lan'er singing." ”

Sheng Ruolan's face finally flashed with anger, but it was only fleeting, and she soon changed to a faint smile.

"Miss Yuan, are we meeting again?"

"Miss Yuan? Well, I also think this title is more suitable for me, it's better than that Princess Gu. ”

Yuan Ziling saw that Gu Hao's face sank out of the corner of her eyes, and she raised the corners of her mouth proudly.

Suddenly, in Yuan Ziling's memory, fragments of Sheng Ruolan emerged.

Back then, Gu Hao led his troops to besiege the Eastern General's Mansion, it was because Yuan Ziling captured Sheng Ruolan, and he lost the throne in order to save Sheng Ruolan.

Yuan Ziling sneered and said to Gu Hao: "King Gu, you really value love and righteousness, for this woman, you have a future, and I respect you as a man." ”

Gu Hao's eyes tightened, and he said angrily: "Shut up!" ”

Yuan Ziling sighed lightly and said slowly: "A few tears, you just rush up, so unforgettable, why don't you marry her to be your princess Gu, oh, it's not that you don't want to marry, but people don't want to marry, a prince who has fallen out of favor, people stay away." ”

When Sheng Ruolan heard this, she was anxious, and immediately squeezed out a few more tears, and said to Gu Hao: "No, Brother Hao, she is talking nonsense." ”

Yuan Ziling glanced at Sheng Ruolan and asked, "It is rumored that when Gu Hao besieged the Dongguo General's Mansion and robbed the people's daughters, where were you?" Why don't you come out to clarify as soon as possible, you don't dare to gamble for this man at all, he has fallen out of favor at that time, and you are worried that coming out to clarify will ruin your reputation, and you can only be tied up with a prince in distress at that time. ”

Yuan Ziling shrugged his shoulders and continued: "Actually, there is nothing wrong with you protecting yourself, it's just that now you are crying and crying to win sympathy, which is really disgusting." ”

Sheng Ruolan heard Yuan Ziling's analysis, her heart was full of fear, and her fingertips were cold.

Yuan Ziling smiled back, and said to Gu Hao: "King Gu, you can give me a piece of paper and a book, from now on, life and death are vast, we don't owe each other, you can go to your Bai Yueguang." ”

"Oh, and you," Yuan Ziling pointed at Sheng Ruolan and said, "If you really want to marry him, I will help you find King Huai to ask for peace and leave the book, I think King Huai will fulfill you." ”

When Sheng Ruolan heard this, she trembled, she didn't expect Yuan Ziling to be so domineering and aggressive.

The anger in Gu Hao's heart gradually decreased, and slowly calmed down, but he felt that he had never known Yuan Ziling in front of him.

Lu Zhi, who was standing far away, nodded frantically at Yuan Ziling's analysis just now and agreed.

He always felt that Sheng Ruolan was not worthy of Gu Hao at all.

Yuan Ziling pursed his lips and said, "You guys think about it, I also have to think carefully about which prince should be better to choose after leaving and leaving, but as long as it's not King Gu, you can consider it." ”

As soon as the words fell, Yuan Ziling left humming a little song.

Sheng Ruolan looked at Gu Hao, and tears poured down like a broken embankment.

She was about to speak, but Gu Hao interrupted.

"This king has never blamed you, and I also ask the second emperor's sister-in-law to respect herself in the future, there are many people, and the reputation of this king is not very good, so as not to affect the second emperor's sister-in-law."

After speaking, Gu Hao took Lu Zhi and walked towards the hall.

Sheng Ruolan wiped her tears, her eyes full of hatred.

When Gu Hao was about to walk into the hall, he turned around and asked Lu Zhi, "That woman, what did you mean just now?" She said that except for King Gu, you can consider it? ”

Lu Zhi swallowed his saliva and nodded.

Gu Hao clenched his fists tightly and strode towards the hall.

After entering the palace, he looked around for Yuan Ziling, only to see Yuan Ziling and the King of Chu sitting in the corner at this time, talking as if no one was around.

He grinded the back sockets and walked over.

Yuan Ziling saw Gu Hao coming over from a distance, deliberately turned a blind eye, and continued to talk to the King of Chu about the case just now.

Gu Hao walked to the side of the King of Chu, waved his robe, sat down, patted the King of Chu on the shoulder, and said, "Fourth Emperor Brother, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”

"Long time no see, fifth brother." King Chu always maintained a faint smile on his face.

"Since King Gu is here, the concubine will not disturb your brothers' gathering." Yuan Ziling got up, saluted, and prepared to leave.

Gu Hao grabbed Yuan Ziling's wrist and said, "What, are you talking to the Fourth Emperor Brother about any unsavory topics?" As soon as this king comes, it will be over? ”

Yuan Ziling glanced at Gu Hao, then looked at King Chu, pulled the corners of his mouth in embarrassment, and said, "King Gu is laughing." ”

The king of Chu lowered his eyes and laughed, got up, and said, "Let's go with this king, and don't disturb your husband and wife whispering." ”

Seeing that the King of Chu was far away, Gu Hao ripped off Yuan Ziling, put it in her ear, and asked in a low voice, "What, have you taken a fancy to the King of Chu?" ”

Yuan Ziling raised his chin and smiled proudly: "I guessed right, the king of Chu is gentle and elegant, polite, humorous, and most importantly, he looks better than you." ”

Gu Hao's eyes showed a hint of coldness, and he squeezed Yuan Ziling's wrist hard, and she groaned in pain.

"This king has not taken a day off from you, you are all Princess Gu, recognize your identity, don't embarrass Gu Wangfu, otherwise this king will cut you with a thousand knives."

Yuan Ziling trembled in pain, but he always refused to beg for mercy, "King Gu, I'm not in a hurry, you're just in a hurry, King Chu is not married yet, I have time to spend it with you slowly, but you may not be, your Bai Yueguang, maybe you will soon be pregnant with someone else's child, when the time comes, the relationship will be messed up, is the child called your father or uncle?" ”

Gu Hao let go of his hand and scolded: "Nonsense." ”

Yuan Ziling thought that he had poked the weakness of Gu Hao's heart, so he let go of his hand.

But I didn't know that the strange taste in Gu Hao's heart was not because of Sheng Ruolan.

Just when the two of them had a ghost in their hearts, the queen mother and the emperor slowly walked into the hall with the support of the eunuchs and palace maids.

The queen followed.

Everyone knelt down to greet each other.

The Queen Mother and the Emperor ascended to the throne, and the Queen served on the side.

"I wish the Queen Mother happiness like the East China Sea, and longevity than Nanshan."

"Long live the emperor."

"Zhongqing is flat."

After a round of necessary rules, the emperor's personal eunuch shouted: "Enter the table, have a banquet." ”

Everyone sat down, and the palace people served.

Singers, dancers, enter.

Yuan Ziling saw that the dancing girl was wearing a gauze skirt, with a beautiful posture and a beautiful dancing posture, she patted Gu Hao and asked, "Such a beauty, does King Gu want to take back home and become a concubine?" ”

Gu Hao glanced at Yuan Ziling, picked up the wine glass and drank it.

Yuan Ziling rolled his eyes at Gu Hao, who did not answer, and continued: "There is no grass at the end of the world, why bother to love a flower, you look at these dancing girls, which one is not as good as her, take a long-term view." ”

Gu Hao held the hand of the wine glass, the green tendons on the back of his hand protruded, and his deep voice could be heard trying to suppress the anger in his heart, "There is no end." ”

Suddenly, the beautiful sound of the piano stopped abruptly, and everyone looked at the musician, who had fainted to the ground.

The emperor's personal eunuch immediately waved his hand, and several guards came up to carry the fainted musician down.

The Empress Dowager and the Emperor had a look of displeasure on their faces.

Seeing this, Sheng Ruolan immediately reported forward: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother, the concubines heard that Princess Gu is proficient in music theory, so it is better to ask Princess Gu to play a song to cheer up the emperor and the queen mother." ”

Yuan Ziling just drank a sip of water that was just stuck in his throat, and when he heard Sheng Ruolan's words, it was difficult to swallow.

"Yes, then I don't know if Princess Gu is willing to play a song?" The emperor asked.

Yuan Ziling immediately swallowed the saliva, she pursed her lips, and said, "The concubine's piano skills are not perfect, for fear of polluting everyone's ears and eyes." ”

The queen hooked the corners of her mouth and said with a smile: "Princess Gu, are you unwilling to play for the emperor and the queen mother?" ”

Yuan Ziling's eyes were so bright that Gu Hao almost wanted to get up, she immediately held down Gu Hao, got up, saluted, and said, "If you don't dislike it, and the concubines are not talented, I will play a song for everyone." ”

Yuan Ziling left his seat and moved to the musician's position.

Gu Hao raised his eyebrows and glanced at Sheng Ruolan, his eyes full of disdain.

Sheng Ruolan couldn't help but feel sad, she never thought that one day, her brother Hao would look at her like this.

Just when everyone was looking forward to Yuan Ziling's embarrassment, Yuan Ziling's fingers gently jumped on the strings, the sound of the piano was melodious, pleasant, exciting, tactful and exciting, and everyone was fascinated by it.

Sheng Ruolan stared at Yuan Ziling with a dead face, she thought that Yuan Ziling didn't understand music theory, so she wanted her to be embarrassed.

Gu Hao didn't expect Yuan Ziling to be able to stroke the qin, he stared at Yuan Ziling in disbelief, and he was a little distracted.

At the end of the song, everyone was still unsatisfied.

Yuan Ziling got up, bowed to the Queen Mother and the Emperor, walked to Hui Hao's side, and sat down.

Gu Hao asked in a low voice, "Why do you still play the qin?" ”

Yuan Ziling raised his eyebrows and said, "I'll have more, you just didn't find out." ”

Yuan Ziling thought to herself, fortunately, she learned the guzheng under the painstaking cultivation of her mother when she was a child, and later went to medical school, because the pressure was too great and she needed to relax, she picked up the guzheng again.

Now it seems that those efforts were not in vain.

Chapter 6: The Emperor's Questioning

In the middle of the birthday banquet, the emperor left the table.

In the middle of the moment, the emperor's personal eunuch came to Gu Hao and Yuan Ziling's side, and whispered that the emperor's side hall was invited.

When he saw the emperor in the side hall, he stood with his back to him, exuding a violent anger all over his body.

Gu Hao and Yuan Ziling knelt on the ground, waiting for the emperor to speak.

At the time of a cup of tea, the emperor slapped the table, became furious, and asked, "What's going on in the harem today?" ”

Gu Hao clenched his fists and wanted to speak.

Yuan Ziling took the first step, she pounced, prostrate on the ground, and said with a crying voice: "Your Majesty, please forgive me, it's all the blame on the concubine, it's the concubine who covets King Gu's beauty, and she can't control it for a while, so she has to pester him for the joy of fish and water, on the day of the wedding of the concubine and Gu Lang, Gu Lang went out to conquer the outside of the fortress, and just returned to the house last night and entered the palace non-stop to restore his life, the concubine really wants Gu Lang too much, so she will mess up the rules and do ridiculous things in the harem, and I hope the emperor will forgive her sins!" ”

Gu Hao was shocked after listening to Yuan Ziling's heartfelt words.

Also shocked was the emperor.

The two pulled their cuffs awkwardly and remained silent.

When the atmosphere was solemn, behind the screen in the hall, a figure walked out, he laughed twice, walked in front of the emperor, and bowed: "I have seen the eldest emperor." ”

"Fourth brother? How did you end up here? The Emperor asked, frowning.

"Brother Eldest Emperor, in order to rush back to celebrate the birthday of the queen mother, the courtiers were tired of traveling and traveling, I thought that I would rest here, but I heard Princess Gu speak so emotionally in a daze."

Yuan Ziling raised his head to meet the gaze of the King of Chu, and his face felt hot.

Gu Hao could see this subtle change, he clenched his fists, and his eyes flashed with anger.

"Princess Gu is really temperamental." The king of Chu moved behind the two, carefully looked at it, and spoke, "Brother the eldest emperor, brother of the fifth emperor and brother and daughter-in-law, after all, the blood is strong, and it is normal for people to act casually occasionally, not to mention, this is a matter of husband and wife, behind closed doors, it is better to let them go back to the house as soon as possible, what should they do." ”

The Emperor half-narrowed his eyes, stared at the two of them, pondered for a moment, and waved his sleeves.

"Get up, you don't have to attend today's banquet, go home."

When Gu Hao and Yuan Ziling heard this, they immediately got up, saluted, and left.

When passing by the King of Chu, Yuan Ziling hugged his fist to the King of Chu to express his gratitude, and the King of Chu smiled and returned the salute.

As soon as he walked to the door, Yuan Ziling heard the emperor say to the king of Chu: "Don't leave yet, I have something to tell you." ”

On the way out of the side hall, Yuan Ziling always felt uneasy.

Gu Hao saw her worries and slowly spoke: "Don't worry, King Chu is the emperor's younger brother and the queen mother's heart, so it will be fine." ”

"Huh? Are they biological? Yuan Ziling blinked in disbelief.

The emperor feels violent and ferocious, but the king of Chu gives people a warmth like a spring breeze.

Lu Zhi had already prepared a carriage and waited outside the hall, and when he saw the two of them coming out, he immediately put the stool on the ground to greet them.

Gu Hao strode on the horse and stretched out his hand to help Yuan Ziling.

Yuan Ziling directly ignored his outstretched hand, lifted the corner of his skirt and stepped into the carriage on the horse stool.

Gu Hao retracted his hand in embarrassment and twisted his fingers.

In this scene, Lu Zhi also looked stupid, Gu Wang actually stretched out his hand to help that woman, but that woman didn't care, all this seemed to be slowly changing.

The carriage walked gently outside the palace.

In the car, Gu Hao and Yuan Ziling sat opposite each other.

Gu Hao hesitated for a moment and asked, "What kind of medicine did you give to this king?" ”

Yuan Ziling raised his eyelashes, looked at Gu Hao, and said, "I didn't give the medicine." ”

"What did you say?" A trace of anger flashed on Gu Hao's face, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Just now you and the emperor clearly said that you coveted this king's ......"

Yuan Ziling rolled his eyes and said, "King Gu, think about it with your pig head, I want to be drugged, why don't you drugged in the mansion, do you want to drugged in the emperor's harem and seek stimulation?" That's a head-to-head thing, and no matter how stupid I am, I wouldn't do it. ”

She paused, and said thoughtfully: "Today's incident is obviously aimed at you, if that person was not me at that time, and the other concubines, the current King Gu, have already been killed with the scepter for the crime of defiling the harem." ”

Listening to Yuan Ziling's analysis, Gu Hao realized that his prejudice against Yuan Ziling has always affected his analysis of the case.

"So, you just said that to save the king?" Gu Hao looked incredulous.

Yuan Ziling shrugged his shoulders and said, "Don't be sentimental, I'm not here to save you, I just don't want to die with you, after all, now everyone still calls me Princess Gu, one day, I will get rid of the title of Princess Gu, and your business has nothing to do with me." ”

Gu Hao lowered his eyes and asked, "Princess Gu, you are so disgusted with the title?" ”

"You think I'm dirty, I think you're violent, it's better to forget about each other than to look at each other."

Yuan Ziling spread his hands, looking like what I said was very reasonable.

Gu Hao's eyes shrank and repeated: "Look at each other and hate each other? ”

"This girl admits that because of your face in the morning, I confirmed that I had such a good feeling, and later found out that the things that Yuan Ziling did were always the thorn in your heart, and I couldn't pull it out, not to mention, you already have love in your heart, and I don't want to mix it."

Yuan Ziling said sincerely.

Those words are always so harsh in my ears.

Gu Hao whispered: "This king has nothing to love. ”

"Anyway, find a suitable time, and ask King Gu to give the concubine a piece of paper and a letter of departure for today's sake, and let the concubine go."

Yuan Ziling knelt on the ground, leaned forward, and saluted Gu Hao to show his sincerity.

Gu Hao clenched his fists, his nails embedded in his palms, and said coldly: "I'll discuss it later." ”

"King Xie Gu." Yuan Ziling put his hands on his forehead and kowtowed, then sat down, leaning his head against the carriage window and looking out of the window.

Today's events are vivid, and in this space where power reigns supreme, human life is as thin as a cicada's wings.

Yuan Ziling offended the queen today, as well as Sheng Ruolan, and the days to come will be even more crisis-ridden.

The carriage had just stopped at King Gu's mansion, and before Lu Zhi could bring the stool, Yuan Ziling had already jumped off the carriage and rushed straight into King Gu's mansion.

Gu Hao stared at Yuan Ziling and said silently: "I always feel that something is wrong." ”

Lu Zhi nodded and responded: "I also think that the princess..."

glanced at Gu Hao, and immediately changed his words: "This woman is not the same as before. ”

That night, Yuan Ziling still lived in Meteor Pavilion, and Gu Hao lived in Mingyue Pavilion.

At night, when taking a bath, Gu Hao took off his clothes, and the red on the white underwear was like a red rose blooming in front of his eyes.

He frowned slightly and shouted, "Someone." ”

When a maid heard the sound, Gu Hao pointed to the pile of clothes and said, "Take those clothes down and burn them." ”

The maid picked up her clothes and withdrew.
