Chapter 81

"Your Majesty has only a few younger sisters. I have met all my concubines before, and I have never heard of any of them who suddenly became a nun. Only Princess Lanxi, the concubines have never met by fate, that's why they are like this." Guess." Gu Yunxian said.

The emperor nodded when he heard the words, and looked out of the window, "Luo Wei was seriously ill when she was young, and she was ill for many years. After recovering, she insisted on becoming a monk and said that she would serve the Taoist monarch for life. The emperor was actually a little unhappy, But I hope she can be happy, so I begged Father."

"Does Your Majesty have a good relationship with the eldest princess?" Gu Yun asked enviously.

For some reason, she didn't want the emperor to know that she knew about the past between him and the third princess, so she deliberately pretended to be curious.

"It used to be fine. Then something happened. She was sick. We haven't spoken a word for many years. But she came to see me before she became a monk. It's okay to talk about some things." The emperor smiled slightly , "We are doing pretty well now."

Gu Yunxian nodded to express his understanding.

In fact, she didn't act very well, and there were still traces of unnaturalness in her expression.However, the emperor's thoughts at this moment were all on the next meeting with his sister, and he had no time to pay attention to her abnormality.

Seeing him like this, Gu Yunxian became curious.

I don't know what the third princess looks like.In fact, strictly speaking, her own destiny can be regarded as being changed by her.

If it wasn't for her, she wouldn't have had a deep-rooted love for the emperor, so that later, she made a wrong step, and finally stepped into an irreparable situation.

When Gu Yunxian saw Ji Luowei, she was sitting by the window making tea.

With slender white fingers and a small and exquisite wrist, the posture of holding the cup is casual and elegant, as if reaching out to catch a fallen flower on a March night.

She was wearing a blue Taoist robe, her long hair was tied up in a round bun on the top of her head, and the back view before kneeling in front of the desk had a sense of chicness.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, she turned her head, and Gu Yunxian met her calm eyes.

Her eyes were peaceful and indifferent, without the slightest desire or longing.

Gu Yunxian had seen this look in Ling Chongyuan's body before.However, Ling Chongyuan's eyes are three points more indifferent than hers, not as calm as hers.

Ji Luo carefully sized up the emperor and Gu Yunxian, and smiled, "My clothes fit you well."

This was said to Gu Yunxian.

She spoke casually, as if the two were not meeting for the first time, but had known each other for many years.Gu Yunxian was affected by her attitude, and smiled back, "It turned out to be the third sister's clothes, thank you."

In fact, Ji Luowei was older than Gu Yunxian, but Gu Yunxian used to be her sister-in-law anyway, so it was reasonable to call her "third sister".

Ji Luo nodded with a smile and turned to the emperor, "Brother."

The emperor looked at her fixedly, and sighed softly, "Luo Wei, I haven't seen you for a few years, and you don't seem to have changed at all."

"The years in the mountains are endless. After living here for a long time, one's heart becomes quiet. Sometimes it feels as if time has stopped, and naturally nothing has changed." Ji Luo said slightly, "Stop standing there, come and drink tea. This The tea is newly picked this year, so that my brother can taste my sister's handicraft."

Gu Yunxian knew that their brothers and sisters reunited after a long absence, and they were in complicated moods, so he sipped tea in silence and gave them space.

"When was the last time we met?" Ji Luo asked slightly, "It seems that my father passed away, so I'll go back to the palace for the funeral."

"Well. Then you went back to Xishan, and we never saw each other again."

"My brother didn't even say to come and see me."

"Do you need me to come and see you?" The emperor laughed at himself, "I see that you don't want to go back to the palace during Chinese New Year, and you still think you want to stay away from me."

"I didn't want to get involved in the bad things in the palace. I wanted to live a quiet life, so I ran away from it. But although I refused to go back, I always missed my brother in my heart, and hoped that my brother would come to see me." Ji After Luo Wei finished speaking, she smiled and shook her head again, "But what you said is also reasonable. If my brother visits me every two days, I'm afraid my sister will never be able to live a clean life again."

The emperor held a delicate porcelain cup in his hand, and didn't know what to say.

Seeing this, Ji Luo smiled and changed the subject, "Brother came to Xishan today, do you have anything to do?"

"It's not considered to be an errand, but to accompany people out to relax."

Ji Luowei's eyes fell on Gu Yunxian again, "It turns out that I'm going out to visit the mountains and rivers with my sister-in-law."

Gu Yunxian didn't expect that the topic would suddenly turn to himself, especially when Ji Luowei's tone was full of jokes, his cheeks couldn't help but feel slightly hot.

But the emperor said naturally, "Yeah. Originally, I thought that it would be rare for me to go out of the palace, so I would accompany your sister-in-law to play around. But I didn't want to be unlucky, and it rained, so I came to your place to take refuge. Take shelter from the rain."

"The younger sister is very grateful for the rain. Otherwise, I would not have seen my brother, let alone my sister-in-law."

She was aggrieved, and the emperor couldn't help but shook his head with a smile.

Ji Luo rolled her eyes slightly, and suddenly said: "Brother, can you go out first? My sister has something to say to Sister-in-law."

The emperor was taken aback, "What do you two have to say?"

Ji Luo raised her eyebrows slightly, "You don't have to worry about it. Anyway, it's something you can't listen to."

The emperor already loved this younger sister, so it was rare to see her this time, so he couldn't bear to disobey her request.Looking at Gu Yunxian again, she didn't have any objection, so she stood up with a smile, "Okay, then I'll go out first, brother. Please be nice to your sister-in-law, don't bully her."

Ji Luo was slightly dissatisfied: "Look at what you said. Can I still eat her?"

The emperor closed the door with a smile and went out, leaving the two women alone.

The smile on Ji Luowei's face slowly faded away, and when she looked at Gu Yunxian, she regained her initial calmness.

"I've heard about you for a long time." She said lightly.

Ever since she dismissed the emperor, Gu Yunxian knew that she had ulterior motives, and at this moment, she just quietly waited for her next words.

"Empress Dowager Gu's distant niece, the emperor's brother's first wife, her biggest advantage before she got married was dignified, smart and courteous. Such a person was deposed because of participating in the murder of the concubine's son. The changes before and after are a bit big " She said, "But this palace is a place that can turn a good person into a monster. It's not unusual for you to do this, so I didn't pay much attention to it at the beginning."

She looked at Gu Yunxian, "I started to be interested in you, it should be when I learned that you regained the Sacred Heart. I have never heard of it before, and as an abolished empress, I was able to capture the king's favor again. Turn around and turn the situation into what it is now." She said, "I'm so surprised just listening to it."

Gu Yunxian didn't speak.

"The year my father passed away, although I went back to attend the funeral, I didn't stay for too long, and I never met you. Thinking about these two years, I still feel a little regretful." Ji Luo said slightly, "Just now Jingmiao Tell me that His Majesty has come to the temple, and there is a woman with her. She doesn't know who the woman is, but I thought of you at the first moment. So, I asked Jing Miao to invite you and Your Majesty over."

Gu Yunxian finally said, "The elder wants to see me? Why?"

Ji Luowei said slowly: "Because I want to see what the woman who fascinates my brother like a emperor really looks like."

Gu Yunxian wanted to laugh a little.

Just a moment ago, I was also thinking in my heart, what kind of sister did the emperor worry about for many years.But who knows, I am curious about others, and others are also curious about me.

"The Elder Lord has seen it now. What do you think?" Gu Yunxian smiled.

Ji Luo frowned slightly, "You and I think differently."

"What's the difference?"

"Feeling." Ji Luo said softly, "I thought you would be a man of deep scheming and scheming. But seeing you today, I don't think you are like that."

These words seemed to be a compliment, but Gu Yunxian was unmoved, and only asked calmly: "It's only the first time I've met the Elder Master, so how do you know what kind of person I am?"

"Don't you know that I have been ill for many years?" Ji Luo said leisurely, "A madman's eyes are actually the most vicious."

After a pause, she continued: "A person, no matter how well he conceals his eyes, there will always be some clues in his eyes. Those who love vanity, those who are treacherous, those who are cold and cruel, all kinds of eyes, I just want Once you see it, you will never forget it.”

She looked at Gu Yunxian, "From the look in your eyes, it doesn't look like a person with a poisonous belly. You were wronged before, or is there something hidden in it?"

Gu Yunxian was a little disturbed by her words, and said in a blunt tone: "I don't want to mention the things in the past."

Ji Luo smiled, "It doesn't matter if you don't mention it, I don't care much anyway."

"The Elder Master deliberately dismissed His Majesty just to say this to me?" Gu Yunxian said.

"Of course not." Ji Luo said slightly, "I'm worried about Brother Huang and want to tell you something."

"what's up?"

Ji Luowei didn't answer directly, but brought up another topic, "At the end of last year, do you still remember the surprise ride of King Ning Jinxian's imperial horse?"

Gu Yunxian nodded.It is impossible to forget this matter no matter what.

"After I heard about this, I was very worried. Although I seldom meet the emperor brother, he is still the most important person in this world to me. I can ignore other things, but his safety I can't just ignore it." Ji Luowei said slowly, "I think there are some too dangerous existences in his harem."

She mentioned the matter of driving the royal horse in surprise, and also mentioned the emperor's harem.

Gu Yunxian's heartbeat quickened.

It was that incident that made her still doubtful.

When King Ning presented the imperial horse, Jing Fushu went up before the emperor tried riding it, but was thrown off by the imperial horse.Rou Wanyi later told her that the reason why Jing Fushu met the emperor was because her mount was frightened, and the emperor happened to save her.

When the same thing happened again, the emperor could not help but touch his old feelings and feel pity for her.

Fortunately, she handled it well at that time. Not only did Jing Fushu not get too much limelight, but she also took this opportunity to accuse Jiang Yuechang and Shen Zhuyang of ineffective administration of the palace, and won the palace power in one fell swoop.

However, although the matter passed, the confusion remained in her heart.

At that time, she was sure that this matter had something to do with Jing Fushu, but she couldn't figure out how she did it, so she couldn't do it.In addition, King Ning later pleaded guilty, admitting that he had a hard time resentment, and immediately moved his hands and feet, and the matter was settled like this.

Ji Luowei suddenly said that, could it be...

"I think the incident of the imperial horse's surprise driving has something to do with the Jing family." Ji Luowei's voice was very calm.

Gu Yunxian couldn't help taking a breath, "Why do you say that?"

"I don't know what's going on in the palace, I only know what I see with my eyes." Ji Luo said slightly, "In the 26th year of Linqing, I once saw King Ning and the Jing family meeting each other on the west mountain. Yes, in his behavior and speech, he doesn't look like an ordinary relative at all."

Gu Yunxian never expected that she would say such words, and his heart trembled, "You, you mean...Jing Fushu and King Ning?"

"I didn't say they were private, I just think their relationship is very unusual." Ji Luo said slightly, "The place where they met was on a small road behind the mountain in the west, and few people came. It happened to be the place where I would go for a walk every day. They probably didn’t expect that the current head of the Xishan Taoist Temple was actually the daughter of His Majesty, and they thought it was safe there. Later I asked the people in the temple, and it was Princess Zhou who brought The maid came to offer incense, and there is no record of King Ning's visit. So I guess, King Ning should have come quietly after Jing Shi."

Gu Yunxian didn't know what to say anymore, he could only open his eyes wide and his mind kept spinning.

King Ning and Jing Fushu?

Judging from her observation of Jing Fushu, she was indeed infatuated with the emperor, and it was impossible for her to have any unclear involvement with King Ning.

So could it be Prince Ning's wishful thinking?She remembered that King Ning used to be a famous romantic son in Yudu. Could it be that he fell in love with his beautiful third younger brother and sister, and saw that the third younger brother was weak, so he moved something that he shouldn't have?
Or, King Ning and Jing Fushu have known each other for a long time, just like His Majesty and Jing Fushu.It's just that Jing Fushu later married King Zhou, so King Ning was unwilling?
But either way, it's too...

Seeing that her expression was changing slightly, Ji Luo knew that she had fallen into a great shock.Let her think for a while, and then said lightly: "That's all I know. What's going on, you have to figure it out yourself."

Gu Yunxian raised his head and couldn't help asking, "Why did you tell me this?"

Ji Luo thought for a while and said seriously, "Because of my brother. When I saw him today, I felt that he was not the same as before. He seems to be happier." There was sadness in his eyes, "Although he used to always smile , but I know that he is not happy at all. He is very tired. I think, since he likes to be with you now, and you don't look like you, let me help you." Smiled, "This is a great gift from me to my sister-in-law, and I hope it can help you soar."
