Chapter 18 On Milk Cakes

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, take care of your health, Your Majesty." Zhang Desheng hurriedly gave relief to the emperor who was about to faint again.

Chu Tingxiao wiped the non-existent blood from the corner of his mouth, calmed down, and said angrily: "Heh, if it wasn't for the prince's reminder, I really forgot, Liuliu asked me to go to her Weiyang Palace, saying that there was a gift for me." ”

He accentuated the tone of the word "gift", his eyebrows fluttered, and his majesty was completely gone.

Isn't it just that Liuliu gave this rebel a coat, look at this rebel son, he has an exclusive gift from Liuliu!

Chu Ye carefully tucked the two soup women back into his sleeves, and bowed without smiling: "There is a courtier to send my father, and my father will go all the way-" Let's go.

"I don't need you to send it off!"

Chu Tingxiao paused, the anger on his face dissipated, his dark eyes deepened a little, and he said slowly: "Chu Ye, if you just want to be an example of a hundred officials, just go to the Gyeonggi camp, why bother to set up an archway here, I will be annoyed when I see you." ”

He really couldn't help it, Chu Ye was pretending to be stupid with him here, this rebel clearly knew how difficult his situation was now!

Chu Ye's eyes drooped slightly, and he finally said softly: "Father can know that the Taifu has long had the intention of returning to his hometown, and his uncle wants to just want to travel through the mountains and rivers and walk the rivers and lakes - the Gu family does not have the heart to fight for power, so what is the use of helping the sons and daughters or not." ”

He didn't know that Chu Tingxiao wanted to let him help and reverse the defeat of the Hui family in the court, but the key to this matter was the Gu family himself.

Chu Tingxiao opened his mouth, but he was speechless, and finally could only sigh: "Gu Chengqi and Taifu are good at everything, but how can they be the same as Liuliu." ”

Chu Yexuan's eyes narrowed slightly, recalling what Chu Yi hadn't finished saying before, and said, "If it's Xiaoliu...... Father, what if Xiaoliu stands up. ”

"By the way, today's June 6 is indeed different from usual." Chu Tingxiao's expression changed, and he suddenly remembered that when Chu Yi attended the ceremony today, he was dressed in red and looked peerless, and his fingers trembled.

The Gu family is good at everything, but they are indifferent to fame and fortune, and they don't compete with others, even Chu Ye, the prince, Gu Taifu and Gu Chengqi don't care.

But there is one point, the old lady and her brother-in-law Gu Chengqi care about Liuliu one by one.

If Liuliu wants to help the Gu family, but is involved in the court situation and suffers a little grievance, the Gu family will definitely be able to support it!

"Ye'er is on duty here, I'm going to find Liuliu to ask for a gift."

Chu Tingxiao didn't show joy or anger on his face, but a smile flowed from his eyes, he patted Chu Ye's shoulder hard, and left leisurely.

Before leaving, I didn't forget to say: "Ye'er is sometimes smart, but it's like me." ”

Chu Ye: There is something to do, nothing to rebel against, his father is really a generation of Mingjun.

He looked at Chu Tingxiao's departing back, quietly hooked the corners of his lips, and said in a low voice: "Little Liu, what do you want, my brother will definitely help you." ”

When Chu Tingxiao arrived at Weiyang Palace, the sun had completely set, the sky had turned dark, and Chu Yi was still sleeping soundly in the inner room.

The emperor couldn't bear to wake up his daughter, so he sat in the outer hall and waited for half an hour, until dinner time, when Xunchun brought a plate of milk cakes.

"Your Majesty, are you going to eat in Weiyang Palace?"

Chu Tingxiao lowered his voice and nodded: "That's natural." ”

He was indeed a little hungry, picked up the milk cake in his hand and took a bite, and immediately frowned: "This is overnight?" I came all the way to Weiyang Palace, you gave me an overnight snack? ”

Before the words fell, Chu Yi, who woke up and made up, walked out from behind the screen refreshed, bent his eyes, and said with a little grievance: "Isn't it delicious, father, this is what Yongning spent a lot of effort on yesterday." ”

Chu Tingxiao immediately threw a whole piece of dim sum into his mouth, and smiled while chewing: "Wow, what kind of fairy milk cake is this, it's so delicious, such a delicacy can only be made by a clever little fairy like my Liuliu!" How many times can I eat in the world? ”

He is going to persuade Liuliu to stand up and take power today, although this is for the Gu family and for her, but she has never paid attention to these mundane affairs, and she is delicate and frail, he has to coax her well before he is embarrassed to let her bother.

Chu Tingxiao thought of his sick and weak body, and he couldn't even bear to speak.

Chu Yi looked at the exaggerated father: "It doesn't have to be like this. ”

She walked up to Chu Tingxiao, and in his surprised eyes, she sat down on the beauty beside him.

"Father and Emperor look at Yongning like this, do you blame Yongning for being rude and making Father wait for a long time?" Chu Yi asked.

Chu Tingxiao shook his head for a while: "Liuliu, please be rude again!" ”

"I like to wait for people the most, in the future, you can sit next to me, you can sit as you want, you can only sit!"

His family is so soft, he finally got rude and rude today, and it was too late for him to be happy!

Chu Yi looked at him and said, "It's just that Yongning prefers that the person who sits next to his father is the queen mother." ”

Chu Tingxiao's heart trembled, and his expression became a little serious.

Chu Yi first set the tone of this conversation, and then picked up a piece of milk cake, did not eat it, and said softly:

"The pastry itself is mediocre, but my father eats two different moods because of the different people who make it, just like those twists and turns in the court, sometimes one road can't go through, maybe change the road, change the person, and everything will be smooth."

"Using this little milk cake as an analogy for the court, this is the first time I have heard of it, Liuliu is really smart." A little surprise flashed in Chu Tingxiao's eyes, and his heart became even more excited.

He didn't have the anger of a princess who dared to talk about the government, and even felt that before he could speak, Chu Yi took the initiative to talk about the affairs of the court, which was worthy of his most intimate little padded jacket.

"Liuliu thinks that what did I encounter that made me think that my first path would not work?"

Chu Yi looked at the emperor's eyes, and the words were sonorous: "Doesn't my father want to protect the Gu family, but you and your brother, one chooses to snub the queen mother to appease the ministers of the court, and the other chooses to snub the court affairs as a guard, how can you save the Gu family with such a road?" ”

Chu Tingxiao's eyes froze, and he subconsciously looked at Zhang Desheng beside him.

Zhang Desheng nodded and stepped back with Xunchun and the others.

Suddenly, in the huge Weiyang Palace, only the princess and the emperor remained.

The milk cake has a faint milky fragrance, and the bauhinia flowers inserted in the jade bottle exude a faint floral fragrance, but Chu Tingxiao's heart is extremely bitter.

"How does Six-Six know, I ...... Want to snub the queen? The Emperor asked in a low voice, sadness in his eyes.

Since ancient times, relatives have been hidden dangers of the country, even if he knows in his heart that the Gu family is loyal to the court and has made great contributions to the society, but he can't stand the hundred officials from treating them as beasts, so he has planned to take the initiative to snub the queen from this time to stabilize the court.

The queen, who is the daughter of the Gu family, is not treated by the emperor, and the courtiers may not be so directed at them.

The reason why he did this was because the Gu family was too loyal, and they were more stubborn than the other, and when they were said to be in power, they gave power to others; was said to be black-hearted in business, so they closed a few shops to shrink their power; Accused of abusing their private power, they took the initiative to cut off their wings.

Now, Chu Tingxiao pinned his only hope on Chu Yi.

Only Chu Yi can make the Gu family no longer flinch.
