Gu Shihai only sat in the front hall of Jingshou Palace for a quarter of an hour before walking out of the house.

He came out of the house with a grim look on his face and stride. Although he was dressed in a civil robe, he was like a general in armor, full of murderous aura.

The guards of the inner court who were guarding the door saw him come out and walked quickly after him.

Along the way, Aunt Fanghua and the palace maid and eunuch saluted him as usual, but he didn't squint, didn't say a word, and left Jingshou Palace directly.

Aunt Fanghua's heart rose to her throat. Obviously, the conversation between the emperor and Gu Shihai was not pleasant.

She glanced into the front hall, the noon sun could not shine into the front hall, Aunt Fanghua looked in from the courtyard, and could only see a figure sitting on the main seat, but she couldn't see the emperor's expression in the shadows.

Ye Qianhuai was in a bad mood after going to court today, and now that she was talking to Gu Shihai and broke up unhappily, Aunt Fanghua couldn't help but worry about Ye Qianhuai's condition. While instructing the palace maid to go to the guards to find a ladder and let the guards climb to the tree to dismantle the cuckoo's nest, she went to the small kitchen to make a pot of Cuiping Green Snow Tea for Ye Qianhuai.

This tea is the most defeating fire.

However, as soon as Aunt Fanghua walked outside the door with the brewed tea, she heard the sound of porcelain breaking.

She paused and walked into the room lightly, putting the tea in her hand on the small table beside her.

The ground was in shambles, a jade-white teacup shattered on the ground, and the warm tea and tea leaves were spilled on the ground, apparently broken by someone vigorously.

Ye Tianhuai sat straight on the seat, her left hand on the arm of the chair turned white because she was clenched too tightly, her whole body trembled slightly, her eyes stared at the tea stains on the ground, as if she was out of a trance, and she didn't notice that Aunt Fanghua walked in.

"It's my carelessness. The sacrificial wine does not participate in the question, but participates in the marking. The problem is not in the leakage, but in the marking. This Shi Taiping was replaced by Wen Xinzhong, obviously changing the soup but not the medicine. Why didn't I think of that? Ye Qianhuai muttered to himself.

"Your Majesty, don't be angry." Since she was a child, Aunt Fanghua had never seen Ye Tianhuai have such a big temper, and she didn't even dare to approach Ye Tianhuai's side.

"This Wenxin is so capable. Since he is Gu Shihai's person, he can make Chen Yuansi nod his head. Chen Yuansi...... That's right, why is Chen Yuansi so calm this time? In the triennial spring, he was able to watch Gu Shihai push his own people up. Ye Qian thought for a long time, didn't come up with a reason, frowned and muttered, "When will they still be able to pee in a pot?" ”

"Li Baoquan!" Ye Tianhuai shouted loudly, and Li Baoquan immediately ran in from outside.

"Go and pass on Chen Yuansi, and let him enter the palace to see me immediately." Ye Qianhuai commanded.

Li Baoquan saw the debris on the ground, hesitated for a moment, and still responded.

After he left, only Ye Tianhuai and Aunt Fanghua were left in the palace. Ye Tianhuai hung his head and remained motionless, while Aunt Fanghua picked up the porcelain on the ground. In the empty hall, there was only the faint sound of fragments colliding.

After a long while, Aunt Fanghua heard Ye Tianhuai say to her, "Auntie, watch out." ”

Her voice returned to its usual gentleness. Aunt Fanghua stopped what she was doing and looked up at Ye Qianhuai.

Ye Tianhuai showed an apologetic smile to her and said, "I lost my temper." Scares my aunt, right? ”

Aunt Fanghua shook her head, put aside the half-packed pieces, brought the pot of newly brewed Cuiping Green Snow Tea to the tea table beside Ye Qianhuai, went to a new teacup and poured it for her, and said, "Your Majesty, the slave maid's newly brewed green snow tea." ”

Ye Qianhuai looked at the bowl of spring-green tea, and the fragrance of tea came to his nose. The tea did not enter the mouth, and her anger disappeared. She laughed at herself: "Auntie, it is said that incompetent people are irritable, and I am also an incompetent person." ”

Aunt Fanghua saw that she was discouraged, and her heart was swallowed back into her stomach, and she comforted her and said: "How can a person live a lifetime without being angry." What's more, Your Majesty is the co-master of the world, and Your Majesty has to worry about so many things in the world, and there are even more annoying things. ”

Ye Qianhuai sighed: "But someone doesn't want me to worry about this." She looked at the courtyard outside the door, the spring was in full bloom, the magpie flew back again, and several guards and little eunuchs in the courtyard were chasing after them with bamboo poles, so it was not lively. The call of the magpie came from the courtyard, but Ye Qianhuai felt that he was not as irritable as Fang Cai, but a little pleasant.

"Auntie, do you think I shouldn't worry about this?"

"Does Your Majesty want to worry about this?" Aunt Fanghua asked.

Ye Qianhuai didn't expect her to ask such a question, and couldn't help but be stunned by the question, and turned her head to look at Aunt Fanghua.

yes, no one ever asked her that question.

Since she sat on this throne, all she heard was "what you should do" and "what you need to do", and even she herself has always told herself what to do as an emperor. Day after day, I dare not relax for a moment.

No one had ever asked her "what do you want to do", so much so that even she had forgotten to ask herself what she wanted.

She didn't want to worry about it.

"If I want to worry about this, why would I have the mind to give birth to Zen?" Ye Tianhuai lowered his eyes and muttered.

She was suddenly a little confused.

Since she was a child, she has never longed for this throne. On the contrary, this crown of supreme and noble in the eyes of the world has always been a calamity and cage that Ye Qian could not avoid.

It was this crown that exhausted the body of the father, and it was also this crown that caused the brothers to kill each other. And it finally fell on Ye Qianhuai's head, and this incident became her mother's life-saving talisman.

Now this crown looks like it is going to be her talisman again.

Gu Shihai's talented appearance made Ye Tianhuai really feel that if she, the emperor, was not "worthy", Gu Shihai would be able to kill the monarch.

It's not a lie to say a little.

Today, the two gentlemen and ministers talked about this, and they can be regarded as bringing the strength of the secret competition before to the table, and there will be no room for turning around in the future.

Ye Tianhuai suddenly remembered something.

"Auntie, are the guards on this side of Jingshou Palace still Li Baoquan's left guard? Have there been any recent changes? Ye Qianhuai asked.

Aunt Fanghua pondered for a moment and replied: "It seems that there was a wave of people during the New Year's Festival, saying that it was because the Ministry of Rites was too busy to transfer some people, but after the New Year, those people before were not replaced. ”

"Are these people listening to Li Baoquan's transfer now? What are the restrictions? ”

"It should be Gonggong Li's person. It's not that there are any restrictions on us, it's just that it feels like there are more people than before. ”

Ye Qianhuai nodded.

The forbidden army in the imperial city was divided into two departments, the left guard and the right guard, and the left guard obeyed the orders of the eunuch of the inner government, that is, Li Baoquan. The right guard was dispatched by the military department, which was equivalent to obeying Gu Shihai's orders.

Now that she and Gu Shihai have torn their faces, they naturally can't use the right guard anymore. Although Li Baoquan was suspected of revealing her whereabouts, he was much safer than Gu Shihai after all.

Ye Tianhuai was thinking about it, and Li Baoquan rushed back.

Seeing him come back alone, Ye Tianhuai's heart sank first.

Chen Yuansi was not with him.

"Your Majesty, Chen Ge is sick." Li Baoquan reports.

"Did you see him?"

Li Baoquan thought for a moment and replied: "I saw it, I was indeed not lightly ill, and I couldn't get out of bed." I'm afraid that tomorrow's morning will also take a holiday. ”

"Has the Imperial Doctor seen it? What is his disease? ”

"The imperial doctor hasn't been there yet, I heard the doctor in Chen's mansion say that Chen Ge is too worried, the wind and evil have entered his body, and he is depressed into his heart, and he is afraid that he will have to rest for a few days to recover." Li Baoquan replied.

The more Ye Tianhuai listened, the more outrageous he became, and he frowned: "What are you worried about?" Stagnant in the heart? ”

What did he have to worry about? What's there to be depressed about? At most, what he is worried about is whether Wen Xinzhong will be able to handle his granddaughter's engagement gift for him next month.

Ye Tianhuai couldn't help but sigh: "This old fox." ”

Chen Yuansi fell ill at this time, no matter whether he was really sick or fake, Ye Tianhuai couldn't count on him to help deal with Gu Shihai anymore.

But now the list of Chunyu is the same as in the previous life, fraud still exists, but I am afraid that the hidden danger of the change of Chengtianmen has not been eliminated.

"Li Baoquan, this morning, why did you go to the Ministry of Officials for so long? Is there anyone in the ministry who is embarrassed? Ye Qianhuai asked.

"Back to Your Majesty, no one in the ministry is embarrassed. I came back late because of a detour. ”

"Why the detour?" Ye Tian had a bad premonition.

Li Baoquan replied: "There was a disturbance in front of the official department, and the servants took the champions to go around from Wangqu Street and did not go to Tianmen Street. ”

"Who is making trouble in the ministry? Tell me more about it. ”

"There were about a dozen people, all dressed as scholars. Listening to the meaning of speaking, it should be a student who has been a classmate with Zhuang Yuanlang, and he is not satisfied with Zhuang Yuanlang's talent. I heard that Yijia was in the Ministry of Officials, so he came to block the door in front of the Ministry of Officials, and wanted to discuss with the champion face to face. The slave was afraid that he would be entangled by them when he walked through the main gate, so he missed the entrance to the temple, so he took the side gate and detoured, delaying for some time. ”

Ye Tianhuai took a deep breath and closed his eyes with his hand on his forehead.

It seems that everything is still developing according to the established trajectory. If nothing else, tomorrow will be the day when the students will jointly sign the book.

Now that Chen Yuansi is sick, Gu Shihai has turned his face with her again, and above the court, it must be a situation where Gu Shihai alone has the final say.

In this life, her identity as a woman has not been leaked, even if the change of Chengtianmen has occurred, she should not come to a dead end and have no power to return to heaven.

However, could she really watch such a tragic thing happen at the feet of the Son of Heaven and be indifferent?

"Li Baoquan, how many Zuo Yawei are under your control in the forbidden army?"

"Back to Your Majesty, there are three thousand seven hundred and fifty people."

Ye Tianhuai nodded, and said in his heart, the forbidden army in the imperial city has a total of 12,000 people, that is to say, there are more than 8,000 people in Gu Shihai's hands.

"Li Baoquan, from now on, as long as there is no edict from me and no seal from me, no one can mobilize your left guard. Words will not work. Of these 3,750 people, if one of them leaves his post without permission, I am the only one who asks. Do you understand? ”

Ye Tianhuai's expression was grim, quite a bit of a mountain rain is about to come, and the wind is full of buildings.

Li Baoquan was shocked and replied: "The slave keeps it in mind and will live up to His Majesty's trust." ”
