Chapter 172
With things in mind, Gu Nian was not in the mood to hang out, and led Ming Pei, and the two went straight back to Kunning Palace.

As soon as she entered, she heard Lue come in quietly and told her that Mrs. An was asking to see her outside the hall.

An Shaoyu?
Gu Nian looked up at the sun outside, the summer in the capital city is getting more and more suffocating, the heat wave in the air is like a fierce tiger with teeth and claws, forcing people to live indoors.

"Let him in."

Gu Nian was sitting lazily, with iced watermelon in hand, which can be called an extremely luxurious thing in this hot summer.

"Slave An Shaoyu, kowtow to the empress."

Gu Nian saw that An Shaoyu's clothes were soaked in sweat, his face was flushed from the sun, and large beads of sweat fell from his forehead.

I can't help complaining, but also feel distressed.

"Why do you want to come here on such a hot day, Lue, bring a bowl of mung bean soup from the imperial dining room quickly, and Ming Pei, go get some water and let Mr. An wash his face."

"Hey!"

"Hey!"

Lue and Mingpei spoke out at the same time, the smiles on their faces were almost overflowing, the master looked refreshed when Eunuch An came.

It's not that Gu Nian didn't see Lu'e and Mingpei smiling with good intentions, it's just that she is magnanimous, so she doesn't have the same knowledge as these people!
Looking down, he saw that An Shaoyu was also giggling, and his face froze: "Eunuch An, do you think it's funny to see Bengong?"

An Shaoyu shook his head: "I dare not."

"Okay, come here when the sun is in full bloom, why are you in such a hurry?"

Gu Nian forked a piece of watermelon, handed it to An Shaoyu, and forked another piece for himself, the juice overflowed and shot in the air, the sweet taste made Gu Nian look satisfied.

An Shaoyu put away his smile, took out a letter from his pocket, and handed it to Gu Nian.

"This is the news from the palace. I think you don't know about it, my lady, so I rushed over here in a hurry."

Seeing that Gu Nian was about to tear it apart, An Shaoyu gently pressed it with his hand: "Madam, I hope you don't get angry after reading it. If you get angry, it's not worth it."

It was Gu Nian who heard the same words twice in one day, and then warned himself not to panic, but it was still false, what happened in this palace, let him and the queen mother comfort her like this.

Gu Nian's thoughts were disturbed, and the hand holding the letter trembled slightly. After An Shaoyu took it, he opened it and placed it in front of Gu Nian's eyes.

From the capital city to the palace, for three full months, the emperor not only searched for a lot of women among the people, but even some of them were married women.

At the beginning, it was just a small fight, and some officials said that they were brutally killed by the emperor, and they became more and more cruel in the later period, but at this moment, no one in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty dared to stop the emperor's evil deeds.

What made Gu Nian the most angry was that Concubine Chen had a miscarriage and was demoted three grades in a row. If the emperor hadn't felt ashamed about the death of his father and brother, I'm afraid that the only thing left for her would be a whole body.

The more Gu Nian looked at it, the more angry he became, and he wished he could rush to the palace immediately and kill the emperor.

This world is not only the world of the emperor, but also the world of all the people. It is fatuous and immoral. This is a sign of annihilation of the country!
How does the imperial power stand in this era!

If the king is not the king, these fledgling chicks will not have the ability to resist at all!
The emperor endured humiliation for so many years, and finally revealed his selfish and greedy nature.

"Your Majesty, please calm down. The emperor's sudden temperament change must be caused by the people around him. You...you should not be sad."

An Shaoyu's heart felt as if a knife had been twisted. Gu Nian was so angry and resentful. Could it be that she didn't have feelings for the emperor as she said at all...

"Sad? Hahahaha, how can I be sad?" Gu Nian stood up from the chair abruptly and tore the letter paper in his hand to pieces.

There was majesty in her eyes, and she said earnestly: "An Shaoyu, I need your help, would you like to help me!"

An Shaoyu stared at her with a deep feeling in his eyes that he had never noticed before. Looking at Gu Nian's firm eyes, he knelt down on the ground: "I am willing to go through fire and water!"

"it is good!"

The two came to the highest point of Miyagi, where they could see everything in their direction.

This may be the most difficult road, but no one backs down.

The next day, Gu Nian still went to Yongshou Palace to pay her respects. She tentatively asked, "Emperor's mother, all the concubines know, the emperor... the emperor..."

The queen mother looked at Gu Nian who was kneeling at her feet and pulled her up from the ground: "You know." She stroked Gu Nian's hair and said slowly: "Queen, men love sex, it's human nature. The emperor is no exception. Don't cry. Men don't love each other. If you spoil a few women, you may forget about it when you turn around. But you are different. You are his wife. I can't get past you."

"Emperor Mother, really?" Gu Nian lay on the empress dowager's lap, hiding her sadness where she couldn't see it.

Through her experiments, she discovered that the Empress Dowager did not know that the emperor killed many civil and military officials because of this, otherwise she would not have only anger but no sorrow.

"really……"

The queen mother looked at Gu Nian's side face, and sometimes wondered why they weren't born in ordinary people's homes, so they wouldn't have so many worries.

Working at sunrise and resting at sunset, the children and grandchildren are full of joy.

She can also enjoy the purest family affection in the world, instead of getting old, she has to be wary of the current emperor's unfilial piety.

In October, Gu Nian watched the mighty team slowly walk from a small point to the outside of the palace city, passing through the long street full of people, and there was a place in the deep palace that everyone yearned for.

"The concubine welcomes the emperor back to the palace, long live the emperor, long live the emperor."

Gu Nian squatted on the ground, and kneeling behind him were the servants who came forward one after another. In this court, everyone bowed their heads to the supreme imperial power.

"The queen is exempt from the ceremony. The empress mother has told me that you go to the Yongshou Palace every day to pay her respects. It is really hard work. My Zitong will never let me down."

Gu Nian smiled, looking at the smug smile on the emperor's face, he just felt hypocritical, who among these women was really on his mind.

The trend of interest was just that she looked at the new faces behind the emperor, wondering if there would be any naive people in this crowd, trying to take the emperor as her own.

"The emperor's reputation is too high, the boat and the car are exhausted, the emperor has worked harder."

You come and I go, it is a scene of husband and wife loving and harmonious relationship.

At night, Gu Nian sat beside the emperor, pointed to the new faces and asked, "Your Majesty, whose daughter is this? With such a sign, is there a marriage?"

The emperor looked embarrassed, and looked at Gu Nian with cold eyes: "These are the women I favored when I went to the palace. As for the status, the queen will make arrangements."

No matter what, at this banquet, the emperor always has to take into account Gu Nian's face, and the status is still up to the queen to decide.

"Your Majesty, these younger sisters are all graceful and charming, why don't they be named sixth-grade talents, what do you think?"

The embarrassment on the emperor's face faded away, and he finally showed a little satisfaction. Compared with these women selected from the folk, the sixth rank is not too bad.
