Wanfu, the Reborn Empress

Chapter 742
Looking at Lu Yingying who was shaking her arms and making quick movements, Gu Yanxi smiled.

It was Tang Xin who spoke at this moment: "Although the Shi'an Courtyard is peaceful, it's really hard to guard against it. The old lady let us out because she really loves us and doesn't want us to listen to those nonsense words. I'm tired." Feeling."

Gu Yanxi glanced at Tang Xin, who was always very transparent and intelligent at critical moments, and said: "Nowadays, the battle in Jiuyang City is tense, and the soldiers and horses of the imperial court are fighting with the rebels in full swing. The panic has changed. Our emperor, who regards imperial power as everything, condescends to come to a courtier's mansion to celebrate at this time, which shows the urgency of the situation. In this situation, you princes should set an example, and at least unite as one It is to share your worries; but, you have seen the situation in the Shianyuan just now, those princes and concubines really deserve to be the emperor's good daughters-in-law, and they still don't forget to dig a hole for each other after they are like this. It's ridiculous. It's no wonder that those rebels were able to come all the way to the capital, so it's not without reason."

Lu Yingying quickly pulled Gu Yanxi's sleeve, frowned and taught her: "You have thrown all the words I said earlier into the dog's stomach, have you? How did I tell you, these crazy words you It’s fine to talk about it in front of me, but you must not mention it outside, do you really want to bring disaster to the Gu family?”

Gu Yanxi looked at the nervous Lu Yingying, and said, "I'm not that kind of stupefied young man. I speak according to the situation and the occasion. Right now, there are only a few of us here. Are you going to betray me?"

"Of course we won't betray you, but you should also know what a wall has ears." Lu Yingying looked at Gu Yanxi with a headache, secretly regretting and annoyed: "If I had known that you were such a 'dangerous' person, I shouldn't have put you on the wall." Let me tell you about the situation in Nine Suns City. It makes you feel emotional now, and I don’t know if telling you the news is for your own good or for your harm.”

Gu Yanxi hugged Lu Yingying's arm, swept away her calmness before, became mischievous again, and stuck out her tongue at Lu Yingying and said, "I know that Yingying treats me the best, and I also know that you care about me the most. Even for those of you who care about me, I will take good care of myself, and I will never let myself be caught by others at such a sensitive time, or fall into the trap of others; in this way, you can always rest assured right?"

Tang Xin also chimed in and said, "Fourth Miss, don't worry, I will take care of Jiaojiao for you; Jiaojiao is much more reliable now than before, and I believe she will find a way to protect herself."

After hearing Tang Xin's words, Lu Yingying said angrily: "You look at her for me? You stupid girl, you hang out with her, Gu Yanxi, and you're only being sold. How can you watch her? That's all, who Let me become friends with you, at worst, I will send someone to keep an eye on the Qingpinghou Mansion these few days, if there is any disturbance, I will be the first to stand up and not spare that gangster."

Gu Yanxi saw that Lu Yingying remembered Yao Jiting's eye on her until now, so she could only shake her head helplessly; at this time, she couldn't say anything more, lest she say too much, and Yingying would feel that something was wrong, so she could only They laughed awkwardly, and talked and laughed with Yingying about other things.But at the same time, he was not worried that Yingying's intervention would affect the overall situation.

Based on her understanding of Zhu Shi and Yao Jiting, these two people are good at disguising and are quite persistent. As long as they have an idea in their hearts, they will definitely try their best to complete it; this quality is very good Character, it's a pity that these two people have used this kind of perseverance in side ways. No wonder Qingpinghou's mansion has fallen to the present situation in just a few decades.

Gu Yanxi, Lu Yingying and the others had fun playing in the corridor. It wasn't until the Shi'an Court sent maids to look for them that they knew that the emperor's guard of honor had arrived.

Today, the son and queen can come to the Jingyanghou Mansion to celebrate the old lady's birthday. This can be regarded as the greatest honor of the Jingyanghou Mansion in the past ten years, and it is also one of the most talked about rumors in the capital during this period. one.

After all, the empress came in person, so Gu Yanxi and the others naturally did not dare to be slow at this time, and hurriedly followed the maids who called them to the front hall to greet them. In the front hall, Gu Yanxi met his mother, and Lu Yingying and Tang Xin were also greeted by them. The courtiers and female relatives who came to the birthday banquet together knelt on the ground amidst shouts of long live, and saluted the emperor and queen who came walking like dragons and tigers.

Gu Yanxi knelt in an inconspicuous corner, taking advantage of her mother's lack of attention, she slightly raised her head to look at the graceful empress.

Today's Emperor Liang Wu is no stranger to Gu Yanxi. After all, he was a man who fought and killed on the battlefield when he was young. When she is showing off her power, how should she frighten the world; as for the empress, Emperor Wu of Liang followed her when he was the prince, and she has been kept in the harem all these years, not too favored, but the position But still no one can shake it.

The prince and concubine who were following the queen looked like a harmonious husband and wife, but when the seemingly friendly prince saw his brothers, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he knew at a glance that he was not going to deal with it .

Right now, Jingyanghou and the old lady have been supported by Emperor Wu of Liang, because they are far away from Gu Yanxi, and she can't hear what they are saying, but she can vaguely hear Emperor Wu of Liang's laughter, which is hearty and generous , not like the appearance that has been plagued by wars in recent days.

Presumably, Emperor Liang Wu's appearance in the courtier's mansion this time was bound to complete the scene, so in front of the courtiers and female family members, he did not show any worry about the front-line war, but pretended to be calm, trying to leave it to others. The confident side of the universe.

But Emperor Wu of Liang didn't know that he had gone too far in this scene; it felt like there was no silver 300 taels here. However, the effect he wanted to achieve may not be as he wished.

"You silly boy, how dare you run away at this time? Get up quickly."

Just when Gu Yanxi was immersed in her own thoughts, her mother's voice came from above her head, and Gu Yanxi was taken aback for a moment, only then realized that she was the only one present who was still kneeling on the ground and saluting. The location is relatively remote, so that no one else noticed her weird behavior.

Lin looked at her daughter who seemed to have lost her soul, grabbed the child's cold fingers, approached her and asked with concern: "What's wrong with your child? You have been absent-minded since just now, are you tired?"

Gu Yanxi squeezed a smile on his face, shook his head to his mother and said: "No, mother, I'm not tired yet, I just suddenly saw the emperor and empress coming at the same time, and was photographed by their majesty, which made me dazzled."

Hearing what Gu Yanxi said, Lin naturally didn't believe it: "You think you can deceive me with this reason? Others don't know, but I know how brave you are. Back then, you were persecuted by Concubine Chang Gui, and you took me with you overnight. The evidence entered the palace, and exploded directly in front of the emperor, insisting on exposing the schemes of Concubine Chang Gui and Princess Huayi to the imperial court; it can be seen that your courage is probably stronger than your father's; How could you be caught by the majesty of the empress? Jiaojiao, Wei Niang has always believed in you and knows that you are a child who is measured, but you can't let Wei Niang worry too much for you, you know? Especially today, Wan Don't lose your dignity in front of the imperial court."

Gu Yanxi did not expect that at the end, his father would still tell his mother what happened that night. Since her mother knew everything, she had nothing to hide: "Mother, don't worry, I know what I should do."

After listening to Gu Yanxi's words, Lin sized her up and down for two more times, and finally heaved a sigh of relief, and continued to stand with Gu Yanxi in the crowd.

However, what Gu Yanxi and Lin shi did not notice was that Zhu shi, who was standing not far from them, could see the interaction between Gu Yanxi and Lin shi clearly, especially after seeing Gu Yanxi's trance-like appearance, he was even more satisfied A meaningful smile appeared on his lips.

When Ting'er sent someone to tell her that the third girl in Gu's mansion didn't seem to be easy to get along with, she was secretly worried that her son would run into a wall in front of Gu Yanxi, but she didn't expect that she was worrying too much.

Just now Gu Yanxi was so dazed that she even forgot to stand up. It can be seen that even though this girl has a good background, she has not been on the stage much. To deal with such a little girl, as long as she is coaxed carefully with sweet words, I don't believe she won't be coaxed dizzy; and as long as she is dizzy, then the plan of their mother and son will not be far away.

Thinking of this, Zhu Shi tightly clenched the handkerchief in his hand, and the look of determination on his face became more obvious.

Emperor Liang Wu appeared in Jingyanghou's mansion this time, in order to make a gesture to calm the people in the capital, but, no matter how relaxed and calm he was, the occasional exhaustion and anxiety revealed between his eyebrows and eyes would still let those around him know him as much as possible. Take a closer look.

Jingyang Hou deserves to be a person who has won the sacred heart over the years. Naturally, he knows why Emperor Wu of Liang came here. Although the emperor's empress came in person and brought supreme glory and honor to Jingyanghou's mansion, he must be careful Waiting on him patiently, for fear of being slighted.

After Emperor Wu of Liang came, Jingyanghou first accompanied Emperor Wu of Liang and said a few words to his closest ministers, and then led Emperor Wu of Liang to the study in the mansion, which was also a place for the tired Emperor Wu of Liang to rest temporarily The place.
