Chapter 384 Gu Yun Has Something on His Mind

After the Ye family's carriage entered the imperial city, it circled the palace wall until it reached the east gate of Yongxiang, the dividing line between the former dynasty and the inner court. The south of Yongxiang is the place where the emperor manages state affairs, and the north is the range of the harem, where the concubines' natal family enters the palace. When visiting relatives, one must verify their identity at the east gate or west gate of Yongxiang.

Because of the disappearance of the emperor's grandson, the guards outside the palace gate have been strengthened, and there are many more imperial guards standing guard and patrolling than before.

As soon as the carriage came to a complete stop, the guards of the Ye family opened the door of the carriage, and Gong Zhenghui leaned out.

"I am back."

The soldiers of the imperial army were stunned for a moment, and then cheered, and the nearby soldiers ran together to salute the emperor and grandson.

"Take me to Grandma's palace."

Gong Zhenghui was young and generous, he waited for the soldiers to salute and immediately gave orders, and then sat back in the carriage.

The gate of the palace was quickly released, and the carriage went directly into the palace. The servants who were on duty here quickly ran to the front court and the palaces of the inner court to inform the sage in the imperial study and the prince and princess of the east palace.

The sage sat restlessly in the imperial study, reviewing the memorials endlessly. The news came back that no one was found, but the one who lost was his most precious grandson. The servants who went out with the emperor's grandson yesterday were all convicted of negligence If the child is really not found in the prison, those people will all end badly.

At this moment, the sage suddenly heard cheers from outside, and Eunuch Xi pushed the door open with an excited expression on his face.

"Saint, good news! The emperor's grandson is back!"

"Really?!" The sage threw down an excerpt that he didn't read a single word of, and clamored for it.

"It was brought back by Mrs. Ye from the queen's natal family. It is said that the emperor's grandson directly said that he wanted to see the emperor's grandma outside the gate of Yongxiang, and has already gone to Yiyang Palace."

"Then what are you doing in a daze, show off!"

When the sage rushed to the outside of Yiyang Palace, he happened to meet the three members of the prince's family who came by car, and the queen's maid came out in time to welcome the prince in.

In the warm pavilion of the main hall, Empress Ye had already hugged her grandson on her knees and was talking to her natal family. She heard the singing outside and said that her majesty is coming. Just as she was about to get up to greet her, she had already entered the door and waved her hand away from everyone.

Gong Zhenghui slid down from Grandma Huang's lap and rushed towards Grandpa Huang. As soon as the sage caught the child, he straightened his back and immediately hugged him, his movements so neat that he didn't look like an old man at all.

The family was reunited with joyful smiles, the prince and princess thanked Mrs. Ye repeatedly, and the saint ordered to grant a seat, so everyone sat in a circle in the warm pavilion, even the two children were among them.

Queen Ye handed the two pieces of paper written by Bai Kou to the sage, and while they were passing them around, Gong Zhenghui told the story of how he was abducted by a trusted servant. The elders are really angry and helpless. When a person dies, there is no evidence for his death. If he can bribe the servants of the East Palace, the master messenger behind the scenes must be in the palace, but he can't find out who it is. The story written by Bai Kou.

The emperor's grandson disappeared, the incident was so big, and he came back suddenly and safely. There must be a unified statement to the court and all the officials. The story written by Bai Kou helped the Tian family save a lot of trouble. , her name will not be mentioned in the public statement, but there must be a share of her in the subsequent rewards.

After everyone circulated the two pieces of paper, the princess crumpled the paper into a ball and threw it into the incense burner placed on the ground. After a while, it was turned into ashes in the charcoal fire.

While the adults were discussing about the rewards, Gong Zhenghui told his sister what delicious food he ate at Duke Ye's mansion yesterday, how good Bai Kou's craftsmanship was, and made the little princess greedy. Think about it I couldn't eat it again, so I couldn't help pouting and acting like a baby with Grandma Huang.

The elders in the room were amused by these two children, the crown prince immediately asked his father for instructions, can the family of four be allowed to go to Duke Ye's mansion to express their thanks in person, even if they are just parents of ordinary people, they should go to the benefactor in person Thank you.

The saint nodded in agreement.

The two children immediately clapped their hands and cheered.

The two female members of the Ye family hurriedly got up and thanked His Majesty.

The grandson returned safely, the sage was in a good mood, stayed in Yiyang Palace with his children, and left the Ye family's female family to have lunch together at noon, and they did not leave until the afternoon.

At the same time, Bai Kou and Gu Yun were wandering around in Chunhefang, which belonged to Xiafang. The two of them had just finished eating at the small restaurant, and they were walking around to digest food.

Here and the surrounding workshops are a well-known workshop area in the capital. After handing over the emperor's grandson to the Ye family in the morning, the two of them came to this area after breakfast. I was also idle, and didn't want to go back to the house so early, so I just came over to see if there was any workshop I liked that could be acquired.

"What kind of workshop are you looking for?"

"Glass vessel."

"What is the use of such a workshop?"

"Make living utensils."

"Do you like colorful glass?"

"I don't like it very much. It's okay to just use a few pieces as decorations. Too many colors will make it look messy."

"Since you don't like it, you still want to make a family?"

"Have you ever seen transparent glass that is as transparent as crystal?"

"I haven't seen one that is as transparent as crystal, but I have seen one that is transparent and light-transmitting. The lampshade with this kind of transparent glass is much heavier than the lampshade made of yarn. Oh! You want transparent glass?!"

"Use transparent colored glass to make bottles to hold fresh and clean liquid products. Whether we can make money this year depends on whether we can find a good workshop."

"I feel a little nervous when you say that so suddenly."

"You don't seem like a coward."

"It has nothing to do with cowardice!"

"Is it about confidence?"

"Uh! It's not that I don't have confidence in you!"

"You are really a pale explanation for the lack of 300 taels of silver here."

"Don't catch my bad language."

The two chatted while walking, and when they got hungry again, they finally walked through Chunhe Workshop. They also found out how many glass workshops there were, and they all seemed to be in business at first glance, and the finished products sold outside were also It's pretty, all kinds of plates and dishes are the main styles, and there are also glazed beads. Bai Kou silently took notes, and copied down the address of the workshop she liked, and saved it for future research.

After eating again on the street, the two returned to the place where the carriage was parked to meet the guards, boarded the carriage and left.

Lighted a fire in the small firepit in the carriage, and when the interior of the carriage warmed up, Gu Yun pulled Bai Kou to his side, and pulled her to lie down on the main seat, a pile of thick cushions acted as comfortable pillows, and the two of them hugged each other tightly. Relying on taking a nap, the door of the carriage was bolted from the inside, and the curtains on the windows were drawn. As long as the two of them don't make strange noises, they won't arouse the curiosity of outsiders.

Bai Kou was really tired from walking, she fell asleep in Gu Yun's arms immediately after lying down comfortably, Gu Yun opened his eyes energetically, kissed Bai Kou's face for a while, and played with her hand for a while. , My heart is full of contradictions.
