Wanfu, the Reborn Empress

Chapter 695 Tang Xin's Worries

"Xin'er, my elder brother has been quite busy recently, I'm afraid he doesn't have time to see you, does he?"

Hearing Gu Yanxi mention Gu Yanchao, Tang Xin immediately lowered her head shyly, her flickering eye feathers were like a pair of fluttering butterflies, just looking at them made people's hearts flutter.

"I heard from my father that the emperor lost something. Brother Chao, as the commander of the Jinwu Guard, should share the emperor's worries and find the lost items." Tang Xin's voice became softer when she said this: " However, I have been searching for this for so long, and I still haven't found the lost property, and I don't know where the thief is hiding, if the emperor gets angry and thinks that it is not good for Brother Chao, what should I do?"

Gu Yanxi saw Tang Xin's uneasiness, so he reached out and patted her on the shoulder, first jokingly said, "What? Worried that my elder brother will be punished by the emperor?"

Tang Xin was quite frank at this time, she raised her head and looked at Gu Yanxi, her bright and pure eyes were really filled with worry from the bottom of her heart: "Brother Chao has a heavy responsibility, he is on duty in front of the imperial court, and important treasures have been lost in the palace. It stands to reason that the Jinwu Guards are not good at taking care of them, so they will be punished. Now the emperor is willing to give his brother a chance to redeem his crimes, so he must seize it. But the thief is too cunning, and he has not been found until now. I'm really worried that Brother Chao will be punished for this. Jiaojiao, you have always been smart and very alert. Can you help Brother Chao think of a solution in this matter? And the old master and the others can't help Chao Brother?"

Gu Yanxi saw that Tang Xin was really worried, so he put away the smile on his face, lowered his voice and said to her, "Xin'er, it is the greatest blessing in his life for my elder brother to marry you, I can see You are concerned about him and nervous about him from the bottom of your heart, afraid that he will have an accident, and even more afraid that he will anger the emperor and cause trouble for yourself. It seems that although you are in the Tang mansion during this period of time, your heart But you have been worrying about my Gu family's affairs, you must not be at ease during this period of time."

Tang Xin picked her fingers, and said in a buzzing voice: "Jiaojiao, you also know what happened to my elder brother a while ago, because my elder brother and mother have been ill for two rounds, fortunately after careful recuperation, now I have recovered a lot. Although my father didn't say anything, I know that his heart is very serious. As for the elder brother, our whole family believes that he is innocent, but it is a pity that innocent people have been implicated. I was fined to guard the imperial mausoleum, and I don’t know when I want to reunite with my family. But at this time, Brother Chao was so busy that he didn’t touch the ground because of the lost property in the palace. I was really afraid of another accident. In the past, in the drama, I've always heard the phrase 'A companion is like a tiger', I can write and read this sentence, but I don't know what it means, but now, after going through these things, I finally understand this sentence The true meaning of the words. It turns out that no matter how favored the courtier is, once there is a slight mistake, whether it is a celebrity in the imperial court, or a high-level disciple, the future and personal freedom, it is all just a word from that superior person. Jiaojiao, I know I shouldn't tell you these things, but these words have really been stuffed in my heart for a long time, if I don't say it again, I feel like I can't hold it anymore. "

Gu Yanxi looked at the fragile Tang Xin in front of him, and glanced at Luo Mei who was waiting on her side. Luo Mei immediately understood what the girl meant, turned around and quietly walked out of the room, heading straight for the outside of the Furong courtyard.

And in the boudoir, Gu Yanxi took Tang Xin's hand, patted the back of her hand lightly, and said, "A heartless girl like you before, I didn't expect to grow up so quickly, and she even learned to worry about her side." It seems that what everyone said is true at all, experiences make people grow. But Xin Er, your growth rate is a bit too fast, it is better for you to be innocent and innocent like before , don’t put too much pressure and burden on yourself; because whether you are a girl from the Tang Mansion or marry into my Gu Mansion to be my elder brother’s wife in the future, you are destined to enjoy happiness. Don't worry about it too much."

"As for your worries about my elder brother, I can reveal to you a real internal news right now." As he spoke, Gu Yanxi approached Tang Xin's ear mysteriously, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: " Stupid girl, why are you so stupid? Haven’t you seen that the lost property in the palace and the sending of the Jinwu guards to find the thief are just excuses; my elder brother wasn’t looking for the thief at all, but was ordered to do something else."

Tang Xin was shocked, and she sat up straight. She straightened her back and looked at Gu Yanxi: "What did you say? Didn't you lose anything in the palace?"

Gu Yanxi asked the servants in the room to retreat, leaving only the two of them, and said to Tang Xin: "The next thing is a secret, you must never tell others, even your parents ,do you know?"

Tang Xin nodded vigorously, and promised, "Don't worry, Jiaojiao, as long as I'm told by you, I'll do it. Tell me quickly, what's going on?"

Gu Yanxi patted Tang Xin's head, smiled slightly, and said, "Think about it, judging from our current personality and temper, if we really lost the treasures in the palace, do you think he would really care about it at all?" Instead of punishing the Jinwu Guards, instead of giving them the opportunity to commit crimes and make meritorious deeds? Our emperor is notoriously mean, and he does not allow the people around him to make the slightest mistake. If it is really a thief in the palace, at this time you will I'm really going to cry, because my elder brother will definitely be severely beaten. At this time, he won't run outside with people without even being able to see him, but will lie obediently in his Wanfeng courtyard to raise him His bruises."

After saying that, Gu Yanxi paused, winked mischievously at Tang Xin, and said, "So, nothing was lost in the palace at all, and the reason why the emperor claimed that something was lost was because he had other errands to deal with." Let the elder brother do it; it's just that this errand can't be done clearly, so there is the saying "lost property in the palace". Xin'er, put your restless heart in your stomach, You don't have to worry about the eldest brother. Think again, the eldest brother is the most promising son of the Gu family. If something happens to him, do you think my grandfather and father will watch? I can imagine that if Big brother really did something that offended Longyan, we don’t need to worry here, grandfather would climb out of bed regardless of his illness, and run to the emperor crying to prostitute himself to the old. As for my father, he couldn’t help it even more You will do the act of breaking into the palace for the eldest brother. Now you know how important your future husband is to the Gu family, right? So, you can rest assured that everything about the Gu family is within our control. "

Hearing what Gu Yanxi said, Tang Xin breathed a sigh of relief, even her sitting posture was no longer as rigid as before: "That's great! It's really great! I'm really afraid that it will happen again Unexpectedly, as long as I know Brother Chao is fine, I will feel at ease."

Gu Yanxi patted Tang Xin on the back, looked at this little girl who had almost entrusted her whole heart to her elder brother, and said with a smile: "I really want my elder brother to see how you worried about him just now, my elder brother has worked very hard these days, busy I don't even have time to go home, I'm afraid the whole person has lost a lot of weight; but I believe that if you let him know that you care about him so much, no matter how tired he is, he will be full of energy and tell the emperor as soon as possible The errand is done."

Knowing that Gu Yanxi was speaking nicely for Gu Yanchao, and also knowing that she meant to make fun of herself, although Tang Xin sounded shy, she liked to listen: "Jiaojiao, what did the emperor tell Brother Chao to do?" What? Is there any danger?"

Considering that the Tang family should not know too much about the inside story, Gu Yanxi also decided to keep Tang Xin on this matter, and said, "I don't know the specifics, but it's definitely not lost; as for whether there will be any danger , I can't guarantee it, but I believe in my elder brother's ability, you can forget that he is the most bright and dazzling young man in the capital, and he is firmly seated as the commander of the Jinwu Guard at a young age, which at least proves that He has real strength."

Regarding Gu Yanxi's evaluation of Gu Yanchao, Tang Xin also agreed without hesitation, "Jiaojiao, you are right, brother Chao is a capable person, and besides him, there will be other Jinwu guards to protect him." He, even if what he does is a little dangerous, he won't be hurt, I should rest assured."

"That's right." Gu Yanxi smiled and pinched Tang Xin's face, but when she thought of her own brother, she couldn't help but say a few more words: "The incident with Brother Tang Feng can only be called a natural disaster." Man-made disasters can't be avoided. Although he is now punished to guard the imperial tomb, it doesn't mean that he will have no chance to come back in the future. I think letting Brother Tang go through these things is a kind of tempering for him, and it is a way for him to go in the future. Going higher and farther has laid a solid foundation. More importantly, Brother Tang has been secretly in love with Princess Huayi in his heart all these years. After this bad fate, there will be better fate waiting for him in the future."

Tang Xin thought of her elder brother whose innocence had been implicated. Although she knew that what Gu Yanxi said was reasonable, she still couldn't help crying out for her elder brother: "The culprit of all this is obviously Princess Huayi. Loyal and loyal, and even more infatuated with her, Jiaojiao, tell me, how could they treat my elder brother so cruelly? Especially Princess Huayi, if she just looks at me and is not used to it, just come to me Why do you want to hurt my relatives? Before, I really misunderstood her, thinking that she was different from those other spoiled princesses, but now it seems that she is worse and selfish than those people. "
