Chapter 327: Extra Five* Coming Home
After the news that Gan Qiongying and Lihua were preparing to return to Yindu returned to the imperial city, when the two of them were still on the road, Gan Lin had already sent someone to completely repair the princess's mansion.
The only thing that survives is the dilapidated courtyard where Gan Lin and Gan Qiongying relied on each other in the palace at the beginning, but they just changed the lock again, and did not touch a single grass or tree inside.
Gan Qiongying and Lihua traveled all the way to the mountains and rivers, and the people Lihua brought with them would change a batch every day, and Gan Qiongying didn't even recognize it at all.
"Those two good-looking maidservants, how come I have never seen them by your side before?" Gan Qiongying had eaten and drunk well, and after a few of the two children, she returned to Lihua's side and sat in the carriage with him.
The carriage was moving slowly, and they had just packed up their things from a town and set off for their journey. It only takes two or three days to reach Yindu.
It was already July, and it was the season of fog and rain, and their original plan was to arrive at the Imperial City by July 15.
Today is the second day of the seventh month.
Lihua didn't forget to deal with the account books in the rocking carriage, and this was the first time Gan Qiongying saw Lihua distribute the unprocessed account books to the maidservants below to deal with.
It was just now that the two of them withdrew from the carriage with the account book in their arms, and went to the two beautiful maidservants in the other carriage.
Gan Qiongying is not jealous at all, she has never suspected that Lihua will look at other women besides her.
Because Gan Qiongying knows very well that Lihua is different from normal people, he has psychological trauma. And there is also skin hunger, plus a tendency to masochism, anyway, all of these things are superimposed, causing him to be actually very closed.
It's not so easy for him to accept a person, he will never touch another person for the sake of coveting any beauty.
has been with Gan Qiongying for so many years, and there is only one sweet corner by his side. When Sweet Horn was a little girl in the first few years, Lihua was able to let her really wait for a change of clothes or something.
But now that Sweet Horn has grown taller and opened a little more, like a big girl, Lihua won't let her come forward at all.
Lihua is not to say that it is a woman, and when it is touched by a strange man, it will subconsciously frown.
Buli once secretly said to Gan Qiongying that when Lihua's symptoms were the most serious, even he had to put a handkerchief across Lihua's pulse, as if no one else in the palace could touch Niangniang except the emperor.
However, Gan Qiongying still deliberately asked about the two maids like jealous, because Lihua likes this.
Lihua likes Gan Qiongying and treats him as a treasure, and is afraid that he will be snatched away.
Sure enough, after Gan Qiongying deliberately asked, the corners of Lihua's mouth were stacked with a smile.
also deliberately pretended to be serious, and explained to Gan Qiongying: "They are Caihong and Danlu, and they are good hands that I have trained to help me with my business." ”
"How is that possible!" Gan Qiongying suddenly sat up from the carriage, looked at Lihua and said, "Aren't Caihong and Qilu two very tall women who can also do martial arts?" When you were at Aoyamaji Temple before, you clearly introduced ......"
"Oh, you lied to me at that time, you found two guards to pretend to be maidservants and spy on me!"
Now that the two of them have passed that sensitive stage, they have long been able to mention the things that used to be suspicious of each other like a joke.
When mentioning the original incident, Lihua did not have the slightest weakness, and even had a faint sense of pride.
"Cut!" Gan Qiongying hit Lihua's shoulder with her head, and said nonchalantly, "It's not very clever, I'll just say why those two girls looked as strong as cows at that time." ”
"And what's the use of you sending those two girls to follow me at that time, I didn't run away from Qingshan Temple in the end......"
Lihua really pursed his lips, mentioning the incident of Gan Qiongying running away at that time, every time he would show some grievances in his eyes.
is like a resentful woman who has been abandoned by her husband, Gan Qiongying likes him very much, and when she saw him show that kind of look again, she pressed the sitting Lihua directly into the carriage.
Then he held his face and kissed him, lifted his leg and straddled his waist to press him underneath, kissed and soothed him well, and Lihua finally returned to normal.
It can't be said that it is back to normal, that is, the face is red and the eyes are shining, as if it has been moisturized fiercely.
He was born with gold and jade carvings, and in the year that he was back together with Gan Qiongying, he was like a flower that had been carefully watered and bloomed, and he was a little more delicate than Gan Qiongying.
Sometimes Gan Qiongying looked at his hands looking through the account books, like white jade carvings, and like green bamboo joints, and looked at the calluses on his fingers that he had nothing to do with archery, and felt that he was the rough one......
It's like sitting up again after being moisturized at the moment, and the slightly messy hair adds a bit of warmth and casualness to him.
Gan Qiongying stretched out her hand to straighten his hair and said, "It's really good that someone can help you share the work, these two maidservants are with you, and you spend more time with me." ”
Lihua smiled and nodded, still explaining seriously: "Except for Madame, I will never mess with flowers and grass, and swear to prove it, if I violate it, God will punish ......"
Gan Qiongying stretched out her hand and pinched his mouth, and said with a helpless smile: "There's no need to swear such a poisonous oath, I believe in you." The two of us are so harmonious, can you still find a lady who loves you as much as I do? Treasure me! ”
Gan Qiongying has never had any inferiority complex, and the person who controls more and better between the two of them is actually Lihua.
But people with low self-esteem are also Lihua.
In fact, in Gan Qiongying's cognition, because she has lived in the modern world, it is normal for couples to be separated and combined between lovers and husbands and wives.
But it's different for Lihua, in Lihua's cognition, as long as it talks about love, it's a lifetime.
There is no possibility of separation and betrayal, unless one of them dies.
Gan Qiongying has always tolerated Lihua's state of some illnesses, after all, he has also suffered the benefits of Lihua, and it is normal for Lihua to have some shortcomings.
And because of Gan Qiongying's tolerance, Lihua almost showed her everything that belonged to her as a sacrifice.
The relationship between the two of them is even like a timeless pure grain wine, the older it gets, the more fragrant it becomes.
In short, the two of them were like glue, playing with the children all the way, and they arrived in the imperial city after another three days.
They returned quietly, and the magnates in the imperial city did not receive any news.
However, the moment Gan Qiongying entered the city, she had already asked people to hang a special bell in the princess's mansion on the horses.
She was in too much of a hurry when she left the Princess's Mansion to dismiss all the people in the Princess's Mansion for that reason, and now she is back, and she is rightfully the victorious side.
If any of these people are still waiting, Gan Qiongying is willing to recruit them back into his command.
She had already discussed with Lihua, and they would settle down in this princess's mansion, and they would set off from this Nanzhao Imperial City wherever they wanted to go in the future.
She also acts as his dignified princess, and Lihua also acts as her concubine, so that Gan Qiongying doesn't have to wake up in the middle of the night because she misses Ganlin, and their family always has to be in one place.
And it's completely different from when they couldn't help themselves, and now they can really live as they want.
However, Gan Qiongying and their car had just entered the city, and soon two little eunuchs wearing the uniforms of the chamberlain drove up in a luxurious carriage.
Gan Qiongying thought that it was the person sent by Gan Lin to pick her up, maybe she was sending her something, maybe she was not at ease.
Who would have expected that as soon as the curtain of this carriage was opened, it would be the emperor himself.
Lihua had obviously expected it, and had already bowed down and started saluting when Gan Lin's carriage lifted the curtain.
The emperor is the emperor, even when they were in the mountains, they were called relatives, and now that Gan Lin is the emperor, he always has to be courteous.
Therefore, Lihua directly saluted, because the emperor may have gone out on patrol, and did not shout long live on the spot.
Lihua even thought a little darkly, every time he saw Gan Lin in the future, he would kneel down, and Gan Qiongying would definitely feel distressed when he looked at it.
Maybe it will make him and Gan Lin see each other a few times.
Lihua really doesn't like to see Gan Lin, if there is anything that can make Lihua feel jealous now, it is that Gan Qiongying will never be able to change the heart that cares most about Gan Lin.
It's a pity that Lihua's belly conspiracy failed, as soon as Gan Qiongying saw Gan Lin open the carriage curtain first, and before she had time to be happy, she saw him thin like a seriously ill horse.
Gan Qiongying jumped out of the car on the spot, and even flew halfway over Lihua, who was bowing down.
After landing on the ground, he walked straight to Ganlin's carriage, stepped on the footstool and went up directly.
Before anyone could get into the carriage, they couldn't help but get angry: "What did I say to you at the time! You've only been away for a few months and you've been tossing yourself like this! ”
Gan Qiongying got into the carriage directly, and before she had time to confide in the feelings of her sister and brother, she scolded Gan Lin with her head and face.
The two fathers-in-law who usually served by Gan Lin's side didn't dare to say a word when they looked at their noses and noses, but in fact, their hearts were shaking and trembling.
They have not been by Gan Lin's side for a long time, and they really admire His Majesty's skill.
And Gan Lin is by no means a soft-hearted person, although he already has a benevolent name, no one inside and outside the court dares to step on his bottom line, which shows that he is not a good match.
And Gan Lin is like a living iron bucket, with almost no hobbies, and it is a dream to want to do what he likes inside and outside the government.
The only well-known preference is the turnip cake, which even the common people don't like very much, and most of the time they don't eat it and just keep it at hand.
But at this moment, the emperor, who has hardly smiled since his return to the throne, was scolded by someone pointing his nose at his nose, but he laughed like a stupid boy who was stunned.
Gan Qiongying scolded more, but she was still distressed, and looked at Gan Lin's eyes, which turned red with anger.
Gan Lin stroked Gan Qiongying's back and said, "Sister, don't be angry, I already know it's wrong." ”
"You know it's wrong? You all know it's wrong! Then dare to do it next time! ”
Gan Qiongying was angry with Gan Lin, and thought of the disobedient Lihua from Gan Lin's body, and scolded the two of them again.
Lihua originally wanted to open the curtain of the carriage and come in, but when he heard Gan Qiongying scolding him, he silently returned to his carriage from the door and did not dare to show up.
The group did not stay at the gate of the city for long, and soon all headed in the direction of the princess's mansion.
Before the princess's mansion, Gan Lin had already said to Gan Qiongying: "I'm going to go back to the palace directly, it's already difficult to get out of the palace this time, and the accumulation of twists and turns is about to bend my back......"
"Don't you want to come back yet? How can an emperor be so good? Do you only want to be a ruler and only have the pleasures of being poor and luxurious? ”
Gan Lin smiled, Gan Qiongying was reluctant to scold him anymore, reached out and grabbed his hand and said, "Wait for me to go back to the princess's mansion to settle down, and I will enter the palace tomorrow to find you in detail." ”
Gan Lin nodded slowly, although Gan Qiongying didn't make it clear, the two of them knew what the other party was going to say.
Gan Lin quickly returned to the palace in a carriage, and now the situation in the court seemed to have stabilized, but in fact, he, the emperor, was still being watched by all the clans.
Leaving the palace this time was also a big risk, and Gan Qiongying didn't dare to keep him longer.
When Gan Lin returned to the palace, Gan Qiongying and Lihua also returned to the princess's mansion to settle.
Revisiting the old place, every corridor, every moon gate and every dwarf tree in the princess's mansion carries the sweet memories of two people.
Those former suspicions and sourness, which have been fermented into sweetness with years and love, they really reminisced, and when they went to bed that night, their stomachs were filled with honey syrup, and they swayed straight when they turned over, making a nice sound.
And Gan Qiongying asked people to lead the horse and shake the bell twice in the imperial city, originally wanting to recall those who were still waiting for her back.
But Gan Qiongying didn't expect that almost half of the people were still waiting for her, still looking forward to her news, even if they had already reacted to Princess Duanrong, they were just looking for an excuse to let them leave, and it was not a drill or task.
The number of people who returned that night exceeded Gan Qiongying's expectations.
Before the time to fall asleep, thousands of people had already passed, and Gan Qiongying showed up in person, and the appearance of a group of people was different from the beginning. But without exception, they looked at Gan Qiongying's eyes with the same brightness and respect as at the beginning.
Gan Qiongying made them wipe two handfuls of tears.
But as soon as she turned her head and returned to the bedroom, she began to worry, she didn't have to fight against anyone now, with so many people around, her small treasury would be less regular every month in the future.
200,000 taels is really not much!
But these people who are devoted to her, after losing contact with her and knowing that Gan Qiongying and they have fled in defeat, are still waiting for news from her, and such loyal people must not be driven out or dismissed.
Fortunately, Lihua soon found out that Gan Qiongying's mood was not quite right, and after asking, she found that she was worried about money.
His wife was worried about money...... Lihua couldn't cry or laugh, and promised Gan Qiongying on the spot to add another 200,000 yuan to her pocket money every month.
But Gan Qiongying's mood is still not high, and Lihua's money is all hers!
What's the difference between this and left-handed to right-handed?
Lihua thought about the character of his wife who was a money fan, and after a little hesitation, he helped Gan Qiongying solve this problem.
Offered to let these people open a dart game.
After all, they all have martial arts, and their skills are good, and it is really the easiest thing to do, and it is also profitable.
Lihua also has a lot of dart games, saying that he can directly assign these people to the semicolon of his dart game, and then share the money with Gan Qiongying.
Not only can they make a living for themselves, but they can also provide some input for Gan Qiongying.
The most important thing is that these people can keep their arms and not retreat at the same time, and if Gan Qiongying wants to use their words in the future, she can directly transfer them back.
When Gan Qiongying heard this, she immediately opened her mouth, and admired Lihua even more.
Gan Qiongying's sorrow was easily solved.
The God of Wealth is worthy of being the God of Wealth, and he can come up with a way to make money no matter what the situation.
At night, the two children were coaxed to sleep early by the nurse after dinner, they had actually been weaned for several months, but the two nurses had been following them and taking good care of the children, so they simply took them with them.
Gan Qiongying's two children are very trouble-free, even less troublesome than when they were born, and even Zhen Zhen, who was born first, will now coax her younger brother Peng Peng, and she doesn't cry or make trouble all day long, which makes Gan Qiongying feel that she lacks the fun of being a parent.
You can't discipline them.
However, the child grows up healthy and obedient, which may be the dream of all parents.
The two of them don't have to worry about Lihua and Gan Qiongying, so they have more time to be in love every day.
Like tonight...... Taking advantage of this blessed land of Xiao Bisheng's newlyweds, the two of them tossed until the second half of the night, and when they saw that the sky was almost dawn, they finally stopped to wash.
Gan Qiongying even had her toes numb, lying there on her side softly, but she was still in high spirits and couldn't sleep at all.
"Gan Lin is really, he wants to me off to death, and he is as thin as a monkey!"
Gan Qiongying thought of this matter again, and couldn't help but complain to Lihua, "Look at how I will clean him up when I enter the palace in a while!" ”
Lihua actually grew some not very good hearts, and his first reaction was to be happy when he heard that Gan Lin was going to be cleaned up, but it soon turned sour.
Gan Qiongying only disciplines those who care, and Gan Qiongying hasn't disciplined him for a long time......
Lihua hugged Gan Qiongying and whispered comfort, saying: "He may be the first time that the pressure of real power in his hands is too great......
In fact, what he was thinking about was what he could do in order for Gan Qiongying to turn her attention back to him.
He can't calculate that Gan Lin made Gan Qiongying angry, so can't he calculate himself?
Lihua hugged Gan Qiongying's head and kissed it, and in the angle that Gan Qiongying couldn't see, her eyes rolled wildly, and she had a bad idea.
Gan Qiongying slept for about an hour when it was almost dawn, and she couldn't let go of Gan Lin and woke up soon.
After breakfast, I went straight to the palace.
Gan Lin has been waiting for Gan Qiongying since dawn, and Gan Lin didn't sleep well last night.
In fact, Gan Lin has not slept well since returning to the palace...... Wasting is also partly due to this.
Tranquilizers can't be taken all the time, and if they are always eaten, they will have no effect, and if they are not effective, they must increase the dose.
Xiao Qianyu said that too much dosage of tranquilizers would also make people become fools.
Therefore, Gan Lin stays up most of the time at night, occasionally gets a good night's sleep, and his body finally does not have other serious conditions.
After Gan Qiongying arrived at the palace, Gan Lin happened to be eating, and when he was in the mountains before, Gan Lin's food alone could be as high as the current ten Ganlin.
Gan Qiongying looked at Gan Lin like an anorexic, and she was angry, but she still didn't scold him during the meal.
When Gan Lin finished eating, Gan Qiongying said directly: "Kill them all, I don't care what method you use, I'll kill them tonight." ”
Gan Qiongying went straight and didn't give Gan Lin any chance to turn around, Gan Qiongying looked directly into Gan Lin's eyes and said: "Hate and love are very consuming things. ”
"But love can at least bring pleasure, and hate can bring you only death and consumption."
"Ganlin, have you ever thought that while you hate them, they are also consuming you. They consumed you like this, don't you want to bury them for them! ”
Gan Lin was so fierce by Gan Qiong that he took two steps back, and even his eyes narrowed slightly like a child who had done something wrong.
He is now an emperor, and all who speak to him are respectful. But he still likes Gan Qiongying the most, even if he cares about him so fiercely, it makes people feel very warm in their hearts.
"I see." Gan Lin said, "I didn't actually want to keep them for too long, I just thought about ...... It's too cheap for them to just die. ”
"Kill it, there's no point in consuming it any longer."
"The regent has become a blind man, Kou Ning'an just breathed a sigh of relief, and the two ants were lying on the skin and were weird, just pinch them to death."
"When they're dead, you don't think about that mess anymore." Gan Qiongying said, "I watched you kill them and go back." ”
Gan Lin took a deep breath, but finally did not say anything against it.
Leng Sheng ordered the palace people to send someone to bring the regent into the palace.
Now the regent no longer has any real power, and the name has not been removed for a reason, purely because Gan Lin is deliberately torturing.
He wanted the regent Sima Rui to hold on to hope and then despair.
But it seems...... It is true that they should not be left behind, Gan Lin made the decision to kill them, and even his heartache was suddenly relieved.
The two siblings sat together at the table and waited quietly, as if waiting for a destination they had finally arrived at after a long journey.
Gan Qiongying sat and suddenly smiled and said, "Do you remember the last time I stayed in the palace, but you were forced to drink poison by the Queen Mother in the middle of the night." ”
"It's really this time and that time." Gan Qiongying sighed and said, "I'm really looking forward to what kind of expression that old witch will have when she finds herself at a dead end?" ”
"The person has almost been sent to the palace, my sister will go with me to take a look,"
Gan Lin stood up, he was dressed in a gold-embroidered dragon robe, and even wore a curtain crown on his head that symbolized the identity of the emperor.
In fact, isn't this a sign of fear? Gan Qiongying always knew that Gan Lin had a fear of the regent in her heart.
After all, it was a bastard who used to take advantage of the moth that Gan Lin was afraid of and brutally mutilate Gan Lin unscrupulously.
Gan Qiongying reached out and took Gan Lin's hand, which was wet and cold.
Gan Qiongying knew that he had not dealt with the regent and the queen mother all the time or not now, and it was not just because it was too cheap for them to die easily.
But Gan Lin was always afraid in his heart.
Even if he is now on the throne, the shadow of the past years of oppression and abuse will not dissipate anytime soon.
Gan Qiongying pulled Gan Lin on the chariot together, the two of them sat in it, and the palace people carried them and walked quickly.
Gan Lin behaved as normal as he could, but he was actually very stiff all over.
He said to Gan Qiongying: "The way I chose to die for them is fire, which is more in line with the vigorous temperament of their mother and son." ”
Gan Lin said vicious words, but in fact, there was an emptiness in his eyes that could not be implemented.
Gan Qiongying took his hand, squeezed him and said, "Do you remember the last time the two of us sat together, that is, the Queen Mother forced you to drink poison and wanted to force me to drink it, and then you drank it all for me...... He refused to let me know what was going on, and forcibly kicked me out of the palace. ”
Gan Qiongying leaned on the seat, looked at Gan Lin with a smile and said.
"Don't be afraid, my sister is here."
Gan Qiongying very easily pierced Gan Lin's forcible disguise, and did not reprimand Gan Lin's weakness, but took it for granted.
"Just give it to Sister later, Sister will help you kill them. You won't have nightmares again. ”
It's not so easy to get over the shadows of childhood, and some people spend their whole lives trying to heal themselves, but they can't.
Gan Qiongying entered the palace today, just to help Gan Lin make a settlement.
She can't let those two things drag her Ganlin to pain, how can they match?
When the two of them arrived at the Queen Mother's dormitory, the dormitory was even more depressed than the cold palace.
In the old age hall where there used to be a group of servants and maidservants, now it is like a deserted palace, the corners of the palace are unattended, and weeds have grown after two rains.
Gan Qiongying and Gan Lin got off the cloth, and before they could go inside, they had already heard a report from the next person: "Your Majesty, the regent has been sent to the palace." ”
Gan Lin stepped down and reached out to help Gan Qiongying, and then he slowly straightened his waist very firmly.
Turning his head and looking resolute, his face was thin, and he commanded, "Bring the regent to the palace of the elderly." ”
"Tell Li Jie to let him let people move all the things I told me before to this old age hall."
The palace people immediately took the order to retreat, and Gan Qiongying and Gan Lin glanced at each other.
The two of them grabbed each other's hands, just like on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, they defeated Kou Ning'an from this old age hall, and supported each other and leaned on each other.
They held each other up again, entering the Hall of the Elderly, to face their former nightmares.
