Chapter 17

"I have one more thing, I wonder if Taifu Shen can agree?" Gu Qinghua smiled again.

Shen Liulian hesitated slightly, and then said: "I don't know what His Majesty said, but I dare not refuse what I can do."

Gu Qinghua sighed softly, glanced at Shen Liulian, and said, "Does Master Shen remember Gu Yaozhi? The eldest sister's only son?"

"Your Highness!" Shen Liulian's expression changed suddenly, he nodded, and looked at Gu Qinghua in doubt.

"Yaozhi is the eldest sister's only flesh and blood. I just found out today that he is still in the cold palace and has just been released. This child looks very smart. I want to ask Taifu Shen to teach him well in the future. I wonder if Taifu Shen is willing? " Gu Qinghua said.

"Your Majesty's benevolence, I deeply respect you." Shen Liulian saluted and said slowly: "However, I think that the crimes committed by the Eldest Princess were ordered by the late Emperor, and it is God's grace for Your Majesty to pardon the Eldest Princess. As for the little Highness— —It is enough for His Majesty to reward him with wealth and honor!"

Shen Liulian's words were very clear, Gu Qingqi was the abolished princess of the previous dynasty, how could she not be annoyed by Gu Qinghua taking her throne?Now she died because of Gu Qinghua. Since Gu Yaozhi is her son, it is really a big security risk to Gu Qinghua. Gu Qinghua should not cultivate him. Giving him wealth can be regarded as the greatest favor !
Gu Qinghua sighed: "The benevolent ruler governs the world with benevolence. If I can't even influence a single child, how can I educate the people of the world?" Words are most useful to people like Shen Liulian. She glanced quietly, and sure enough, Shen Liulian looked at her with eyes full of admiration and admiration, which was not adulterated at all!So she went on to say: "Besides, the child is innocent! And he is also a member of my royal family. If I let him go, how can I bear it? I still hope that he will become a generation of virtuous kings in the future just like the big sister Huang!"

"Your Majesty is so generous, I am ashamed!" Shen Liulian looked at Gu Qinghua almost staring at him, and immediately said with emotion: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will definitely do my best to teach your Highness!"

The new year passed in a blink of an eye. This was the first year that Gu Qinghua came to Xiguo to celebrate the new year. The royal family’s New Year’s celebration was no different from ordinary people’s homes. There were countless complicated etiquettes and rules. Xianglin herself doesn't know much about it.In order not to reveal any flaws, secondly, they were afraid that the courtiers would make jokes and lose their prestige, so the two discussed, and on the grounds that the eldest princess was in deep grief at the funeral, they decreed that everything should be kept simple and save everything that could be saved.

The King of Political Affairs was reluctant at first, because there are too many royal etiquettes, and every year he can find an opportunity to rectify a few courtiers who have offended and despised him, and he also planned to make a good plan to make Gu Qinghua a big Ugly, if everything is kept simple, wouldn't it be a waste of time?

If it's something else, Gu Qinghua is strong, but he might agree, but this thing can't work. After implementing the set of rules, it's me who is tossing!On this point, she and Xianglin both maintain a high degree of agreement, to the extent that even the most well-mannered Aunt Su is helpless, let alone the king of politics!
King Yizheng went home with a stomachache, with a gloomy face, and as soon as he raised his hand, he brushed the precious suet white jade bottle on the case, watching it shattered on the ground and stomping on the ground, he couldn't let go of his hatred!

First, Shen Liulian, that old-fashioned, pedantic and stubborn guy, ran over and shook his head, twisted his beard and lowered his head, and talked to him about Gu Qinghua. He also misunderstood His Majesty, and "kindly" said that he could explain to His Majesty for himself, to clear up his past suspicions or something, and the convincing tone of appreciation made him very awkward, but he still had to pretend to be humbly taught, He racked his brains to evade his "good intentions".If it wasn't for the fact that this person had a lot of experience in Qingliu, he really wanted to tear himself apart with him at that time!
So he thought at the time, isn't this lingering the most important etiquette?very good!As long as Gu Qinghua stumbles hard on this, he will pick a few words in front of him with heartbroken heart, and he will not linger in worry and change his hateful opinion, but Gu Qinghua wants to keep everything simple.

The Son of Heaven wants to be frugal and respect filial piety, so he has nothing to say after a few disputes, so he has no choice but to give up!But the nameless anger in his heart burned more and more intensely, until he felt so hot and dry all over his body that it was extremely cold.

It seems that it's time to find her a royal husband, so as not to cause trouble every day!
The King of Political Affairs gritted his teeth and thought.

The Prince Yizheng is still planning this matter, but he doesn't want the Princess Yizheng to take action in the next year.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, as usual, all princesses and high-ranking wives will enter the palace to pay New Year's greetings with high-end make-up. One enters the palace to pay New Year greetings to Gu Qinghua.

The ranks are different, and the treatment they receive during New Year greetings is also different. Some side branch princesses, county princesses, or lower-ranking wives, dressed up neatly, just enter the hall and kowtow to the dragon chair to offer gifts, and then Aunt Su Waiting for a higher-ranking female official to lead to the side hall to drink a cup of tea, and then give one or two boxes of imperial snacks, new-style palace silk flowers, etc. It’s fine, and often even Gu Qinghua’s face cannot be seen!For those with a slightly higher grade, Gu Qinghua summoned several people at a time, gave them a seat to gossip, and went away in a formality, and then they dispersed!
However, Princess Yizheng is different. Not only does Gu Qinghua want to see her, but he also greets her with a smile on his face, giving her a seat and tea and snacks. Luo silk satin, imperial snacks and other gifts.

In the early morning of the first day of the first lunar month, when the sun was still dark, Gu Qinghua got up to dress up. The people who were going to meet on this day all wore heavy makeup, and she was no exception.

Just finished dressing up, and before she had time to eat breakfast, Suying lowered her hand to report: The princess discussing politics asks to see her and wish her Majesty a New Year greeting!
"It's so early!" Gu Qinghua was a little surprised, so he stood up and ordered "Biography!"

Take a look at your makeup from the large crystal glass mirror inlaid with gold and silver dots, red, green, sapphire and flower patterns, with towering temples, dotted with emerald hairpins and pearls, and wearing a dress inlaid with countless longan-sized pearls. The golden-winged phoenix crown, the nearly one-foot-long flying golden wings on the forehead and on both sides are adorned with fine golden tassels.There is a ruby ​​pendant as big as a dove's egg, and a necklace of a red gold dragon and a phoenix hanging on her ear. She is wearing a gold embroidered dragon and phoenix costume like a peacock's screen. The waist is slightly tucked in, the skirt wraps up in three layers, and the outside is covered with a near-transparent wide-sleeved gown of the same color.Coupled with the carefully drawn facial features, it looks even more majestic and infinite.

When Gu Qinghua saw it, he bluffed himself!
When the Princess Yizheng saw her, she couldn't help being taken aback.But I haven't seen her for more than half a year, who would have thought that the girl Pianzi, who can only make her petty temper lose her temper, has such a dignified appearance!When Princess Yizheng bowed her head and kowtowed, she couldn't help but wonder in her heart: Did she misunderstand her in the past or has she grown up?Or, because of the clothes?She felt that it was mostly because of the latter reason.

At the same time, Gu Qinghua also squinted at her. The neat red and gilt patterns were paired with wind-haired skirts, and underneath was a scarlet skirt that reached the feet. The crown of gorse and hibiscus inlaid with emerald gemstones has picturesque eyebrows, knife-cut temples, slightly high cheekbones, thin lips, radiant eyes at a glance, and a proud shrewdness in the whole person.

"Princess, please get up quickly! Entering the palace early in the morning, it's hard work! Aunt Su, give the princess a seat and serve tea!" Gu Qinghua smiled and raised his hand, with an elegant demeanor.

"My concubine, thank you for your majesty's grace!" Princess Yizheng got up and bowed her knees again, pursing her lips and smiling, "It is my concubine's honor to wish your majesty a new year. Others envy you and don't come, so why not talk about luck!"

Xianglin rolled her eyes quietly, and couldn't help but twitched the corners of her mouth, honor?Not envious?This man still loves to show off so much!

Gu Qinghua smiled and said nothing, waited for her to sit down, gave her tea and snacks, and chatted with her without saying a word, just how is the family doing?How did you spend New Year's Eve?What styles of jewelry, clothing, makeup, etc. are popular in the capital now.

Princess Yizheng answered one by one, and we had a good conversation with her, but occasionally glanced at her with some surprises: last year she also entered the palace to pay New Year's greetings, Gu Qinghua had no interest in talking about this with her at all!
However, this is just right, the atmosphere of the conversation is lively, and it is easier for her to speak what she wants to say.

After a while, when it came to all kinds of novelties and antiques, the Princess Yizheng got up and laughed with her, "Your Majesty, my concubine has something to present to His Majesty, please show me your favor!" He took out a narrow, long and small gold-painted mahogany brocade box, and raised his hands above his head to hold it upwards.

Seeing that she was talking about presenting a gift but did not kneel down, Xianglin couldn't help frowning slightly, feeling very unhappy.But Gu Qinghua's eyes lit up, he stared at the brocade box in her hand with great interest and said with a smile: "Oh, is that so? The things that the Princess of Political Affairs is interested in must be rare, Xiang Lin, quickly present them!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Xianglin endured the anger in her chest, walked down slowly, and took the brocade box over.

In fact, Gu Qinghua was not necessarily very curious about this gift, but seeing Princess Yizheng's smile narrowed her eyes, her complacent expression, and her eagerness to try to say something, she wanted to hear what she wanted to offer this gift. do what?Otherwise, why bother if it is not offered along with other gifts?So, she decided to cooperate well.
