Chapter 158: The Empress? Wife? No way...
Hearing that the empress was furious because of her own dragon face and expelled the commanders of the forbidden army from the palace, Gu Lan was even more confused!
But I'll have to figure out why in the future.
has come to the magnificent palace of nourishing the heart.
In the midst of the sandalwood, the beautiful palace maid came over and greeted Gu Lan and Gonggong Mao with a smile: "Gu Gongzi, Your Majesty is unwell today and cannot see guests, I hope you will forgive me." ”
“......”
Gu Lan was speechless, and said that the empress's illness was really troublesome, and she couldn't listen to it today, and she had to come back another day...
However.
The palace maid then said: "But what Gu Gongzi did, Your Majesty already knows, and the object given to Gongzi is on the dragon case. ”
"Childe, wait a minute, the slave will get it!"
Gu Lan was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "Thank you." ”
After the palace maid turned into the bright yellow dragon pattern screen, she turned to a square plate with a pair of flower feathers and a jade seal on it.
Shining brightly, the guards beside the Golden Palace looked sideways and swallowed their saliva!
"I knew that Gu Sheng was extraordinary, and I never thought that he would have the talent to solve cases and interrogate them, which really surprised me...... The position of the first-class earl of Tefenger, a hundred taels of gold, and a thousand horses of brocade..."
The palace maid reads the dictatorship.
This is the empress thought about it afterwards, since Xiao Xi at the dinner table has already said about the marquis... In order not to let Gu Lan suspect that she opened the back door to let him in, he could only postpone the reward by one grade first.
Even so, though.
The position of the first-class uncle is also quite low in Dajing Capital, especially such a young first-class uncle!
The guards swallowed louder.
Many palace maids also cast their eyes.
They glanced at Gu Lan nostalgically, although their hearts were itchy, they could only bow their heads and leave, not daring to look too much.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Gu Lan responded indifferently and accepted the reward.
He didn't think there was anything about it, after all, he saved more than 20 lives, and afterwards told the Dajing Imperial Court where the Huanxi Immortal Palace was located, and the merit was fully worthy of this reward......
"Gu Gongzi, Your Majesty has one more thing to ask you."
Just when Gu Lan wanted to return the same way with Gonggong Mao, the palace maid stopped him again.
Shouldn't it be that you have to arrange tasks again, how can this empress press a person, could it be the reincarnation of a juice squeezing queen...... Gu Lan had a bad premonition in his heart.
Then!
The palace maid spoke, and her voice was crisp: "Your Majesty asked, I don't know if Gu Gongzi is willing to enter the palace?" ”
Gu Lan: "!?? ”
We haven't even met in person, and you're even sick, so you're going to take the harem...... Isn't that outrageous?!
When the surrounding guards heard this, their eyes suddenly changed, from envy and jealousy before to real awe!
A kind of reverence for the future master!
And Father-in-law Mao also leaned back tactically, and he was shocked with such a happy look!
However.
Without waiting for Gu Lan to respond, the palace maid turned to say, "The prince is willing to enter the palace... Replace Luo Chen, the former commander of the forbidden army, and take over the forbidden army to join the army? ”
Gu Lan: "......"
Girl, can we not gasp for breath when we speak, if you pass the decree like this, it is very likely that someone will disobey in the future.
Gu Lan spit out, thought of an excuse and said: "Chen Yijie is a scholar, I don't know martial arts, I'm afraid it will be difficult to meet Your Majesty's expectations." ”
"Your Majesty said that the forbidden army is just a temporary post, and there is no need to cultivate martial arts."
The palace maid smiled and said: "It is said that the forbidden army protects Your Majesty, but in fact, everyone knows that Your Majesty is guarding the whole world, so why do you need others to protect you?" Joining the forbidden army is just another reward for His Majesty's talents. ”
Gonggong Mao helped at this time: "Yes, Gu Gongzi, since Your Majesty believes in it, how can you live up to this good intention?" ”
Hear the words.
Gu Lan suddenly fell silent.
At first, listening to the meaning conveyed by the palace maid, it seemed that it was just a casual invitation from the empress to give herself a chance to continue to perform...... But this repeated explanation and retention, how can there be a meaning that you have to reward yourself with a high position in Miyagi?
"If it is difficult for the prince to choose, he can go home and think about it for a few days, and then come to the palace to give His Majesty an answer."
The palace maid thought that Gu Lan was hesitating, so after saying this, she saluted and went back.
The task she received today was to let Gu Lan accept the reward, and then convey the will to throw the olive branch at the end.
So you can't give Gu Lan a chance to refuse!
Father-in-law Mao helped Gu Lan take the reward with a smile on his face, for fear that his thighs would not be blessed in the future!
"Childe, go back and think about it, the position, prestige and real power of the forbidden army are much higher than the first-class uncle in your hands... Since Your Majesty is interested, you must grasp it! ”
In the last half of the sentence, he leaned into Gu Lan's ear and said it.
The intention here is, of course, not only the meaning of appointing meritocracy, but also the deliberate intention of letting Gu Lan approach Miyagi and become a minister under the empress's skirt.
“......”
Gu Lan nodded lightly, noncommittal, his eyes flashed: "Father-in-law take me out of the palace, I will think about this matter." ”
"Good!"
Father-in-law Mao felt that Gu Lan had opened his mind, and his face was happy.
The two of them headed towards Miyagi Street.
The guards behind him looked at Gu Lan's tall back, and couldn't help their sour words at all!
"It's good to be good-looking! Obviously he is just an ordinary person, but he actually has the blessing of being favored by His Majesty......"
"Sure enough, a character like Your Majesty is not exempt from vulgarity! I thought that the only person in this world who could be worthy of His Majesty was the one who worshipped him. ”
"Don't care what other people cultivate, it will definitely be our master in the future, and there is no good fruit to eat when chewing the root of the tongue behind your back!"
"Yes, yes! Luo Chen was just beaten half to death, how dare we... I'm just a little curious, what is the identity of this scholar, and where is he from..."
“......”
Outside Miyagi.
Bidding farewell to Gonggong Mao, who looked at the concubine's eyes, Gu Lan came to the corner of the Zhu Wall, and the hidden heart of the holy product was quietly activated, and his figure gradually became transparent!
"This decisive stealth is really perverted, and even perception can be blocked! If this is placed in the bath of the previous life...... Ahem, if it's during the battle, how can the opposite side play? ”
Gu Lan turned back and walked to the palace again, and secretly said: "It's a pity that I learned it at a temporary glance, and I can only maintain it for half an hour...... But it should be enough, let's see what secrets there are about the lady in this palace, and if I can find my mysterious sister-in-law..."
...
At this time, the west gate of Miyagi.
A fiery red soft sedan chair stopped, and a goose-faced girl in palace costume came down, with delicate facial features, soft green silk, and a jade face that looked like the empress.
"Your Highness, Your Majesty is not in the palace today."
Knowing that Princess Mingle was coming, the female officer hurried to greet her.
Princess Mingle bowed: "It's okay, I know she's not there...... The teacher is available, I have something to do with the teacher. ”
The female official nodded: "The Taifu is in the study of the East Palace." ”
"Okay, don't go through, I'll go over."
Princess Mingle was a little happy.
Since she was intimidated by Mu Yuyan to take the school exam in front of many students, she didn't dare to slack off anymore, and she specified a plan last night to move to the East Palace to "study hard" for a while!
Even if you forget it!
The imperial sister knows her determination, and she won't be willing to embarrass herself anymore, right? After all, when the time comes, I will lose the face of the royal family...
"Uncle Zhang is not reliable at all, and he doesn't even know who the man the imperial sister likes is, so it's better to ask the teacher..."
On the way to the East Palace, Mingle shook his head and said as he kicked the pebbles on the road briskly.
When the maid behind her heard this, she hurriedly persuaded: "Your Highness, if you ask Taifu this kind of thing, it is estimated that there will be no result... And it will be known by His Majesty afterwards! ”
Compared with when she was a child, Her Majesty finally treated her a lot gentlely, but this master is always on the verge of being beaten and tempted wildly!
Let them be slaves and maids, very worried and afraid!
"Afraid of what?"
Princess Mingle turned around with a smile, her beautiful eyes were bright: "That man is at most favored by the imperial sister, otherwise he would have stayed in the Luanfeng Palace...... No matter how important he is, can he still have this palace important in the eyes of the teacher and the imperial sister? Besides, this palace also hopes that he and the imperial sister can succeed! ”
There is truth to this.
But for some reason, the maid always had a bad premonition...
......
Nourishing the Heart!
Gu Lan walked directly through the guards' patrol and came to the huge dragon case with a dragon and a phoenix!
The dragon chair is covered with soft cushions, and there is a dragon couch not far behind, with a hundred flowers falling and a moire brocade quilt, which is where the empress usually sleeps.
From time to time, there is a faint fragrance, which seems to be the body fragrance infected by the empress sleeping here for a long time......
Well?
How does this smell feel familiar...... Gu Lan shrugged his nose, and was not polite, and sat directly on the dragon chair.
At a glance, the broad perspective of the white marble foundation of the Taihe Hall in the south made him addicted to the emperor!
"Imagine that hundreds of officials kneel down, it's really cool to be the emperor...... It's a pity that I don't want to wake up to the trouble of being in power, I just want to get drunk and lie on my mother's knees. ”
Gu Lan curled the corners of his lips.
In the original work, Empress Dajing has never had a male favorite, and she is still a perfect body, so this heart palace should also be regarded as a boudoir.
No wonder it smells so good......
didn't care much about the fragrance of the empress's bedroom hidden at this moment, after all, he was not the male protagonist of the stallion Wen, Gu Lan calmly glanced at the internal layout of the Heart Cultivation Palace.
Next to the couch is a screen, behind which is separated by a clear pool, which is now empty, and at night there will be a palace maid pouring hot water and flower petals into it for the empress to bathe.
"Tsk, this woman is really going to enjoy..."
Gu Lan thought of the pool of the rich family in the luxury villa in his previous life, and couldn't help but feel a little envious in his heart.
However.
Just as Gu Lan looked around, he didn't find anything else.
When you want to get down to business......
A cyan gauze on the hanger next to the dragon couch attracted his gaze tightly!
The moire of the gauze is fine, the workmanship is like nature, and it fluctuates with a faint immortal aura!
Of course!
These are not important, the important thing is that Gu Lan is close, and the more he looks at it, the more he feels that this gauze is like a couple's outfit with the Tsing Yi he usually likes to wear!
"Isn't this the sale dress I gave to the lady, how can you be in the bedroom of the Empress Jiaqing?!"
It is difficult to find a second piece of immortal-level spirit clothes in the world, of course Gu Lan can recognize the system reward, and while he is shocked in his heart, his brows are slowly furrowed!
"The lady likes this dress very much, it is impossible to lose it, and she has been wearing this dress the other day, this morning... That's right! When she went out today, she wasn't wearing this! ”
Gu Lan groaned.
The fragrance of the empress's bedroom seemed to be getting stronger and stronger, pouring into her nose, and the extremely familiar feeling made Gu Lan feel shocked!
"Lady... The Empress... Won't you?! ”
On the dragon chair, Gu Lan's heart trembled, and he subconsciously sat up straight, his eyes widened, and all kinds of coincidences in the past instantly came to mind!
"When I was in Langzhou, I couldn't feel that mysterious sword fairy, and I couldn't see through the breath of the lady!"
"Empress Dajing...... Isn't it one of the few sword immortals in Dajing?! ”
"And some time ago, Si Qingqu said that the empress was taken away by the female officer because her husband broke into the Tianshan Mountains and bombarded the space barrier, and was later injured to exhaustion...... Could it be because of me?! ”
"And those major events in the world, the lady seems to have heard about it much faster than ordinary people......"
When the pictures were recalled, Gu Lan's face was shocked and he muttered to himself.
Originally, it was impossible for him to associate the two together!
After all, the lady has a gentle personality and is tender to herself, she is simply the most perfect woman in the world!
And the original Empress Dajing, but she has a cold personality, is ruthless and decisive, and has no mercy on the courtiers who raise the butcher's knife!
One is a little wife, and the other is a ruthless emperor......
How can this be a person!!
But now!
Even if it doesn't matter anymore, so many coincidences are stacked on top of each other, and there is ironclad evidence like Sayi, Gu Lan has to start doubting......
Lady, is she the empress of Dajing?!!
"Hmm... In the end, it's okay to go to the East Palace to see the living records of the empress over the years, anyway, you have to figure it out today! ”
Gu Lan took a deep breath, and regardless of the running time of the hidden heart, he hurriedly swept towards the palace in the east!
The guards on both sides of the road felt an inexplicable wind, and couldn't help but scratch their heads, revealing puzzled looks.
...
Along.
Gu Lan paid attention to Tingting's palace maids.
The appearance is indeed superior, but if it is compared with the lady, it is more than a step worse, and it is impossible to be a sibling!
"If my conjecture is true, then the mysterious sister-in-law really shouldn't exist..."
All the facts are pointing to that possibility, after Gu Lan came to the dormitory where the empress lived when she was a princess, her breathing became a little short!
Finally!
On a side case, Gu Lan found the emperor's living record, the pen and ink are still new, recording the whereabouts of the Empress Jiaqing in the past six months.
In order to verify the identity of the lady, Gu Lan couldn't wait to open it, her eyes nervous!
[You flipped through the empress's living record, special degree: unique]
[Reward: Cultivation is +1000, and you will get an additional loyalty of 100% Holy Rank Peak Dead Soldier x1]
[The host can be summoned anytime, anywhere]
Hearing the mechanical sound, Gu Lan's heart moved!
This added bonus... It's kind of extraordinary!
As a rule of thumb, rewards are not only related to the books read, but also to the content of the books!
It seems that there is something really strange in this living record......
Gu Lan flipped through it intently, but his brows furrowed slightly!
"The whereabouts of the empress in the living record are all in the palace, isn't it a lady? Did I guess wrong?? ”
"In the fourth year of Jiaqing, the empress accepted the way widely, reused the grain of Linjiang City, and rewarded thousands of people...... Is this also a coincidence? ”
Looking at the inconsistent daily life record with a confused face, Gu Lan's eyes flashed, and he was a little shaken by the guess in his heart!
However.
Just when he couldn't figure out the result.
The beauty in a gorgeous palace dress didn't know when she appeared, and she didn't shout, but just looked at Gu Lan who had already shown her figure with thoughtful and curious eyes.
After a while.
Princess Mingle's peach blossom eyes changed from memories to sudden, Bai Nenyu poked Gu Lan with her fingers, and said in a low voice of surprise: "Ah, is it you?" Saved me that night... Adulterous thieves? ”
Gu Lan came back to his senses and raised his eyes to look at her.
That night, because Princess Mingle was bathing, he didn't look at her incivility, so he didn't see her appearance clearly.
And at this time!
After looking directly at her charming face again, and her delicate facial features that resemble a lady, Gu Lan's eyes were stunned, and his pupils shrank fiercely!
Really......
(There were a lot of things when I wrote the last chapter, and I forgot about the empress setting...) But when I saw the book review, I immediately went back to the circle, thank you for the great reminder! This holiday should probably end the showdown plot, and the follow-up warm daily + Six Realms plot is as exciting, ask for data! )
