Rebirth after waste

Chapter 139

After the morning party was over that day, Yin Fansu made a special trip to stay, and solemnly bowed to Gu Yunxian, "Thank you, my concubine."

"Fan Su, what are you doing?" Gu Yunxian stretched out his hand to support her, "I'm just speaking for you, it's nothing."

"The concubine is not thanking my sister for helping the concubine, but the concubine is thanking my sister for trusting the concubine." Yin Fansu said seriously, "My sister must have heard the rumors in the palace. But my sister is still willing to believe in the concubine, and it is because of my trust in the concubine." This concubine is a great kindness!"

Gu Yunxian sighed softly when he heard the words, "They are all sisters of my own family, don't talk about being kind or not, there is no birthright. I believe in you because I think you will not harm me. I think our sisters for so many years Love is not only important to me, but also to you."

"Yes. The concubine naturally values ​​it!" Yin Fansu said, his eyes a little moist, "Actually, the day my sister came back, the concubine wanted to explain to her, but she didn't know how to say it. Sister, don't be fooled by the rumors in the palace. .Your majesty has treated his concubines very well these years, better than others, but that is only for the sake of my sister. In your majesty's heart, you are different from everyone else."

Gu Yunxian was silent for a moment, then smiled and said: "Of course I know that Shen Zhuyang and the others deliberately released those rumors, I won't be fooled, don't worry." Patted her hand, "Bring Ah Hang here this afternoon. No, I miss him so much."

"A-Hang also misses my sister very much." Yin Fansu said, "He always remembers how much my sister loved him in the past, and even in the past few years when my sister left, he often thinks of you."

Gu Yunxian knew that she was implicitly telling herself that Ji Hang would not argue with his younger brother, so he smiled and said, "I understand. Ah Hang has always been a good boy."

One month after Gu Yunxian returned to the palace, the court formally proposed that "the five sons of the emperor are getting older, so it is better to set up their positions early and go out to study in the pavilion".

Establishing a son-in-law as the prince is the general trend, and it was confirmed very smoothly.Although there were still some ministers who did not give up on saying that the second son of the emperor was extremely intelligent and could be crown prince, they were ignored by everyone in unanimous agreement.

Soon, the emperor issued an imperial decree. After the spring of the second year, the fifth son of the emperor was formally registered as the prince, and the prince and Taifu were selected for him to preach and teach.

When the news reached Jiaofangdian, everyone was very happy.Ah Ci was a little embarrassed and said: "The imperial concubine has never had any disputes with the young lady. This time, it is the servant who treats the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain..."

She is like this, she is unambiguous when doubting people, and she is very straightforward in recognizing mistakes, truly straightforward.

Gu Yunxian shook his head and said helplessly, "You're just worried about me, I understand."

According to the information she secretly inquired these days, the emperor did have a preference for Fan Su Duo, but that was only in relative terms.In fact, in the past five years, the emperor has changed from his previous state of being obsessed with women, visiting the harem at most once or twice a month.The palace people said, "Your Majesty is lucky enough to go to the harem, and eight out of ten times I go to the imperial concubine's place", but they never thought that because the total number of times is too small, even though the imperial concubine is favored more than others, they will not actually see the emperor all year round. how many times.

The latter point was ignored by others unconsciously, but Shen Zhuyang deliberately ignored it.Not only that, but she also seized on this matter to drive a wedge between her and Fan Su when she didn't understand the situation.The calculation was pretty good, but she underestimated her trust in Fan Su.

As for the voices in the court who want to make the second son of the emperor as the crown prince, it is even more insignificant.There will never be a shortage of ministers who are independent and love to fight against everyone. To put it bluntly, they are nothing more than attracting people's attention.What's more, these people may have been instigated by someone at all, and came for a certain purpose.

They thought that they had lived a clean life in Mushan for a long time, so they were not familiar with the conspiracy and calculations in the palace, and they thought her too useless.

Even for Ah Huan, she would not be deceived so easily.

At the beginning of November, another major event occurred in the court.A well-known person from the south of the Yangtze River wrote an article titled "Pursuing the Sages", but in fact he scolded the king.Things like the emperor's absurdity and willfulness when he was young, the forced acceptance of his younger brother's wife when he ascended the throne, and the reinstatement after being abolished were all brought out, and he was severely reprimanded, with sharp and vicious words.

If only criticizing private morality is enough, the key is that at the end of the article, the celebrity changed his style of writing, saying that the so-called New Deal was just a product of the emperor's tossing about to satisfy his own selfish desires and seize power.It is just an excuse to have the world in mind and serve the country and the people.

As soon as this article came out, the whole country was in an uproar.

It is said that after reading this article, the emperor was so angry that he even brought out a headache that he hadn't committed for a long time.Mr. Lu went up to comfort him, but the emperor broke the Langhao brush in his hand in two, and the servants in front of the imperial court were so frightened that they knelt on the ground.

The direct consequence of this incident was that Lu Chuan, who was in a hurry, went to the Jiaofang Hall to invite Gu Yunxian in person, and begged her to persuade His Majesty not to get angry with unworthy people and hurt himself.

"Your Majesty just contracted a cold a while ago, and you haven't taken the medicine prescribed by the imperial physician for two days, and something like this happened." Lu Chuan sighed, "I see that Your Majesty is usually worried about state affairs. Yes, it is really hard to suffer these injustices now. These celebrities have written articles to gain fame, but they don’t want to think about how the people who have been scolded by him will calm down! But His Majesty still can’t treat him seriously. ...."

Lu Chuan came over in person, so Gu Yunxian naturally couldn't refuse, and followed him to Dazheng Palace.

When she entered, the emperor was holding a booklet for reviewing. Hearing the voice, he raised his head and saw Gu Yunxian's plain face like a snow lotus.

He froze for a moment, propped his head and smiled wryly, "Did Lu Chuan bring you here as a rescuer?"

"I heard that you are so angry that you have a headache, Master Lu is in a hurry, so please let me take a look." Gu Yunxian stepped forward, "What's the matter? It's just a sour literati's empty talk, why are you so concerned? "

The emperor glanced at her, "Haven't you read what he wrote?"

"No." Gu Yunxian shook his head, "But I've heard the content from the palace people." It's not the first time he was scolded by scholars like this, and Cui Shuo's wonderful bullets back then are still vivid in his memory!

The emperor conveniently took out a copy from the sidebook and threw it to her, "You can read it for yourself."

Gu Yunxian opened it inexplicably, and after scanning it, he immediately found the key.

It turned out that apart from criticizing the emperor's obscenity and lust for power, this celebrity also made a bold accusation.

"Empress Xuanyi didn't like Jingshi before, but today she insists on welcoming her into the palace, against her mother's will. I think about Xuanyi's death late at night, maybe it has something to do with it..."

She unconsciously clenched the fold with her fingers, and she took a deep breath.

As soon as the emperor saw her reaction, he knew that she had seen the key, and the bitterness and self-blame in his eyes became more and more serious, "I can laugh at everything this person scolds me, but this is the only thing I can't pretend I didn't see..."

Gu Yunxian didn't know what to say.

She had never heard the palace people mention that there was such a stroke in the article, presumably this was too bold and no one dared to discuss it.

Of course she didn't think that this celebrity knew something, most of it was just his own random speculation, but she didn't want to just hit the emperor's heart.

In the previous life, the queen mother was indeed killed by Jing Fushu, who was brought into the harem by the emperor.

After not hearing Gu Yunxian's voice for a long time, the emperor smiled wryly in his heart, sure enough.

After she returned to the palace this time, the relationship between the two has greatly eased. They will discuss Ahuan's various hobbies together, and they will also play chess and play chess in the garden while talking and laughing.Sometimes he even felt that she no longer had any real affection for him like she did five years ago.Several times when she looked at him, there was clearly something else in her eyes.

Such a situation made him happy, as if he had embraced the boulder for many years and finally warmed the stone, his heart was full of excitement and disbelief before the consummation of merit and virtue.

But this memorial woke him up again.

He had done such a stupid thing before, although Yunniang said she didn't blame him, how could she not have grudges in her heart?

Those entanglements of life and death cannot be forgotten just by forgetting them.

I was feeling desperate in my heart, but felt a warmth in my hand.

He looked up in astonishment, but saw Gu Yunxian's gentle eyes, with a hint of understanding and relief, "We have all made mistakes, and this is something we can't help. Since we can't turn back, let's make up for it in the next time. Auntie I hope you will be a sage monarch, and you are now. She must be very pleased with the spirit in the sky. When these decades pass, we will go underground to plead guilty to my aunt. At that time, she will be willing to accept whatever punishment she wants , okay?"

He watched her hold his slender hand.The ten fingers are white and tender, and the nails are finely powdered. It is the hand with his memory that can only play beautiful music and write good words.

This was the first time in five years that she took the initiative to get close to him.

He flipped his right hand and held hers backwards, with more and more force.She was pinched a little painful, but she didn't struggle, just looked at him with a smile.

He stared at her for a long time, and finally said hoarsely, "Okay."

Gu Yunxian didn't know if he wanted to reach a settlement with the emperor.She always felt that since she had never hated him and deliberately indifferent to him, it was inappropriate to talk about reconciliation.

She just, doesn't feel anything for him anymore.

Perhaps it was his courageous and wise side that awakened her initial memories, reminding her of how energetic and vigorous the boy she had been infatuated with was.The heart that was so indifferent to him began to soften.When I saw him frustrated and self-sufficient, I couldn't help but comfort him.

What's more, they still have Ah Huan.

Five years have passed, and she is no longer as determined as before, and he will not demand her pure and incomparable feelings.He is willing to accept her hesitation and wait for her to slowly unravel the knot in her heart.

Their once sharp edges and corners have been smoothed by time, and they have changed to a more gentle way of getting along.

Perhaps, she should let the situation develop like this and not take the initiative to intervene.

Since the gods let her be reborn and let him recall the past, maybe they will arrange the most suitable result for them.

It took more than half a month for the emperor's wind and cold to heal, and during this time, in order to avoid giving Gu Yunxian the illness, he has never seen her.

While the emperor was ill, Gu Yunxian saw another person.

Someone she doesn't want to see now.

Cui Shuo.

The emperor wanted to choose the crown prince and Taifu for Ah Huan, and Cui Shuo was the first candidate proposed.He is well-educated and well-known for his poems and prose when he was young. He just taught the prince how to read, so there is nothing difficult for him.

Gu Yunxian knew that there was another more important reason besides this, and that was that Cui Shuo was the leader of the new political party.

Ah Huan is the future emperor, and his political opinions will determine the future destiny of the country. The emperor naturally hopes that he can inherit his ambition and not be fooled by the old forces.Therefore, his teacher must be selected from the new political party, and looking at the entire new political party, no one is more suitable than Cui Shuo.

Since the farewell on the Shangyuan Festival, Gu Yunxian has deliberately avoided Cui Shuo on various occasions, so the two have never seen each other again.

After learning that Cui Shuo was probably Ah Huan's husband, she hesitated.I wanted to say no, but I couldn't find a suitable reason, and felt that it was more deliberate to do so suddenly, so I had to give up in the end.
