Chapter 132

Cui Shuo stepped forward at the right time and knelt down to salute, "I will see you, Your Majesty, Your Majesty's peace."

"Yes." The emperor said lightly, "Rujing, you came just in time, go up and show your ability, let me open my eyes."

Cui Shuo smiled slightly, took the bow and arrow from the shelf beside him, aimed at the target in front of him, narrowed his eyes slightly, let go of his hand, and shot the arrow at the red heart.

The emperor looked at the target, then at Cui Shuo, his tone was still flat, "Good shot." He shook his head, "You always hide it normally, why are you willing to show your real skills today?"

"Your Majesty specially summoned your ministers to accompany you to shoot arrows. If you still don't try your best, wouldn't it be a disappointment for Your Majesty?" Cui Shuo said.

The emperor smiled and said, "You are very clever."

While talking, the two left the archery range and walked towards the pavilion in the distance.

"I see that His Majesty's complexion is not very good, but you are too tired recently?" Cui Shuo said.

"Probably." The emperor said, "You have also seen that everything has been crowded together recently."

"Speaking of which, I haven't congratulated Your Majesty on the birth of a son!" Cui Shuo suddenly bowed his head and said solemnly, "Such a great joy is truly a blessing for the community and your Majesty!"

The emperor looked a little strange, staring at the pillar not far away and smiled, "Is it my blessing?"

Seeing this, Cui Shuo's eyes flickered, he hesitated for a moment and then asked: "I heard that the empress's phoenix body is out of harmony, is there something wrong?"

On the surface, the relationship between the emperor and him is that of a monarch and minister, but in private it is actually more like a friend. Hearing the words, he did not hide it, nodded and said: "You heard it right, it is true."

"Is it serious?" Cui Shuo tried to make his voice sound like an ordinary courtier's loyalty to the queen.

"It's very serious." The emperor said, "The imperial doctor said that it's best for her to go to the hot spring palace to recuperate for a few years, otherwise the root cause of the disease may fall."

"Then, what is His Majesty's plan?"

The emperor asked without answering, "Then what do you think? What should I do?"

Cui Shuo thought for a while, "I think, Your Majesty should follow the doctor's advice and let the empress go out."

The emperor had expected that others would persuade him so, and was not surprised when he heard the words, "You think so too?"

Cui Shuo said earnestly: "One, the empress's phoenix body is important, if the treatment is delayed, it will be bad; two, it will almost look like next year, it is the opportunity that His Majesty has been waiting for for many years, when the time comes..."

What he said later was vague, but the emperor understood what he meant.

Yunniang is not in good health now, staying in this palace reluctantly will not only delay her medical treatment, but also encounter countless dangers.Now that I have such a relationship with her, I guess even if I keep her in the palace, I won't have much chance to meet her.As time goes on, everyone will see the clues, and then they will no longer behave like they are now, and all kinds of dirty tricks will go towards her.

At that time, if he had devoted himself to court affairs, he might not be able to protect her.

So, let her go.

The hot spring palace is far away from the turmoil in the palace, so there is no chance for others to attack her.

She can take her children to rest in peace among the green mountains and green waters, and live a truly carefree life.

Before Gu Yunxian came out of the moon, he had to drink nourishing soup every night.After dinner, Ah Ci went around the corridor to get medicine for Gu Yunxian from the cook, but inadvertently saw a black figure standing under the flower stand in the courtyard.

She didn't know how long he had stood there, but she saw that his shoulders were covered with falling flowers.She had never read a book when she was a child, but she only read a little poetry when she was with Gu Yunxian, but it was just superficial.He has never been a person of literary style, but at this moment he thought of a word as if obsessed.

Falling flowers are independent, and the Swift is flying.

There was a sense of loneliness and solitude.

Ah Ci was puzzled for a while, only to realize that the emperor's eyes were looking straight ahead.She looked along, but saw a vague shadow projected on the window.

That is, the lady holding the fifth son.

Confused, she took a step back.The footsteps were too heavy, the emperor suddenly woke up and looked at her.

"My servant sees Your Majesty!" She quickly knelt down, "My servant does not know that His Majesty is here, so..."

The emperor froze when he saw the shadows on the window, he must have heard their voices.

Don't look away, he said casually: "Get up. I happen to have something to look for your mother, take me in."

"promise."

Inside the Jiaofang hall, the fragrance is wafting, all the maids are waiting outside, and only Liu Shanggong, Caijia and Caizhi are serving in the inner hall.

Gu Yunxian did hear their voices just now, so he was not surprised to see the emperor at this moment, and hugged the child and saluted, "Your Majesty."

"You are still in confinement, don't be too polite." The emperor said gently.

Gu Yunxian was a little surprised by his attitude.

Today, he is no longer as gloomy as before, and his expression is very natural when he gets along with her, as if they are just an ordinary couple.

There was no quarrel, no love.

"Show me Ah Huan." He said softly.

Gu Yunxian handed the child to Ah Ci obediently, and said, "Be careful."

A Ci walked to the emperor with the child in her arms, and smiled, "Your Majesty, do you think the little prince looks a lot like you?"

The scene she saw just now made her fantasize, thinking that His Majesty came to reconcile with Miss tonight, so she said these words, hoping to help the two of them.

The emperor smiled and said lightly, "Be more like a queen."

Ah Ci didn't know what he meant, so she didn't dare to speak again.

Gu Yunxian watched the emperor holding the child, chatting and laughing, with a loving face, and couldn't help but said: "If your majesty likes it, you can take Ahhuan to Dazheng Palace for a night."

I heard that when she was ill, Ah Huan was placed in the Dazheng Palace and was looked after by the emperor. He must have missed her very much.

She did not think too much about him, but she did not intend to separate their father and son just because of this.If the emperor really liked Ah Huan, she would be happy too.

After all, he is his father.

The emperor squinted his eyes and continued teasing the child for a while, then raised his head and said, "No, I'll be back in a while. I came to see you tonight because I have something to tell you."

"what's up?"

"Xue Changsong told me a few days ago that you are not in good health and need to rest. So after thinking about it, I agreed to his suggestion to let you live in the hot spring palace for a few years."

Gu Yunxian was taken aback for a moment, "How many years will you live in the hot spring palace?"

"En." The emperor nodded, "It's far away from the palace, so there are not so many troubles. You can live there and be quieter."

Gu Yunxian thought about it for a moment, and then felt that this arrangement couldn't be better for her.

She knew that after she gave birth to Ah Huan, she would definitely face more open and secret struggles, and if she was not careful, the child would be involved.However, now she always feels weak and dizzy from time to time, and after a few times, it is clear that she has hurt her body due to childbirth.

In such a desperate state, how would she protect her Ah Huan?
He was still worried at first, but now he actually told her that she had a chance to avoid all this far away.

Maoshan Hot Spring Palace, if she goes there, not only will she not have to face all kinds of battles in the palace, but she will also not have to continue to see the emperor as an enemy, which will make both of them more relaxed.

He thought so too, so he agreed.

"Okay, concubine, but it's up to His Majesty to arrange."

The emperor chuckled and muttered to himself: "But according to my arrangement...."

Gu Yunxian saw that his eyes kept falling on Ah Huan, and suddenly had an ominous premonition, "Your Majesty..."

The emperor turned his head, "What?"

"Chenqie...Can Chenqie bring Ah Huan along?"

Seeing her nervous look, the emperor's eyes were a bit obscure.

After a long time, he smiled slightly, "Of course."

In late October of the fifth year of Yongjia, the queen moved to Maoshan Hot Spring Palace due to illness to recuperate, and the five sons of the emperor stayed with the queen.

This is another empress after Empress Duanyi who moved to the hot spring palace for a long time. Everyone was a little emotional.

If it weren't for the precedent of Queen Duanyi, I am afraid that the ministers would regard this as a disguised exile.However, the most favored Empress Duanyi has moved to the palace for many years, and now that Empress Gu moves there, it cannot be concluded that she has fallen out of favor with the king.

After all, all the imperial physicians have made it clear that the empress is indeed out of harmony with the phoenix body and needs to rest.

Sitting in the carriage, Gu Yunxian handed a finger to Ah Huan to play with.He nestled in her arms, holding her fingers tightly with two fat little hands, with a serious expression on his face, as if this was a problem he couldn't overcome.

Ah Ci opened the curtain, looked at the continuous palaces that were getting farther and farther away, and sighed softly, "I don't know how long I will be able to come back after this trip."

Gu Yunxian didn't even raise his head, "Why, are you reluctant?"

Ah Ci said: "How can this servant be reluctant. This servant has been longing to leave here. It's just that something that I've been looking forward to for a long time suddenly comes true, and my heart is full of ups and downs. I always feel that it's not real."

Gu Yunxian smiled slightly and continued to tease Ah Huan.

Even a careless person like A Ci who doesn't take things seriously doesn't like this palace, which shows what a helpless place this is.

She once lost herself here, lost her principles, and did many wrong things.Fortunately, God gave her a second chance to make up for her mistakes.Now that the world has changed, she has no other worries, and she has the opportunity to leave and start her new life.

with her children.

Even knowing that this departure is temporary and that she will come back one day, it can't dampen her joy at this moment.

"Ah Huan, my mother will take you to a place. There is no one else there, just the two of us, and those who love you." She took Ah Huan's hand and kissed the back of it lightly, "You You can grow up there happily and don’t have to worry about anything. Grandma will always protect you.”

After saying this, she silently looked at Yuxue's cute little face.

In fact, what A Ci said that night was correct, the child did look like his father, especially the eyes, which were carved out of the same mold.

When she left today, he didn't come to see her off, but discussed with the officials in Lixiao Palace.

The concubines of the six palaces sent off Fengjia at the gate of the palace together. Gu Yunxian shook Zhuang Guiji's hand and said with a smile: "I am going to recuperate, not to be tortured. Don't shed tears."

Zhuang Guiji suppressed her sadness, nodded and said: "The concubine is waiting for my sister to come back."

Gu Yunxian patted her hand with a smile, and then saluted in the direction of Lixiao Palace, which was regarded as a farewell to the king.

It's just that when I boarded the carriage, I still felt a little strange.Since the year they married him, this is the first time the two have been apart for such a long time.Thinking that she would be without him for a long time in her future life, she didn't know whether she was relaxed or at a loss.

In any case, he had really considered her for allowing himself to go to the hot spring palace to recuperate, and she was really grateful for accepting his favor.

"Haha..." The sudden laughter woke her up from her thoughts.

Looking down, Ah Huan grabbed her finger, put it in his mouth, bit it hard, and then laughed happily.

She looked at the drool on her fingers, and then at that little face that was smiling so happily, she felt that all the vague emotions in her heart dissipated, leaving only endless joy.

She hugged his small body tightly, and began to really look forward to the peaceful life of only their mother and son.
