The Daughter of the General's Gate: The Genius Little Meng Fei

Chapter 70

She also picked up the wine glass and replied: "Shu'er, this is a family feast, you don't have to be polite, just call me my aunt. Speaking of which, you two served the emperor meticulously and faithfully, and you have also shared the burden for me in the past two years." There are a lot of worries, and it's time for this score to be raised." She paused for a moment, then turned to ask the emperor: "Your Majesty, what do you think?"

The emperor didn't expect the empress to ask such a question suddenly, so he couldn't react for a while. He looked at the Wang sisters. The latter saw the emperor's gaze on them, but they were neither arrogant nor impatient. Instead, they smiled towards the emperor. The emperor thought that the two sisters were always soft-spoken and never overstepped, and they were cautious in serving him, so his heart moved, and he said with a smile: "The queen has the final say on such a small matter."

The imperial concubine here couldn't help gnashing her teeth with anger, and even openly proposed to promote Wang's rank on this occasion. If she expressed objection, it would just appear that she was narrow-minded, so she had to pretend to laugh: "The queen is really serious to the sisters in the harem." Take good care of me."

But everyone could hear that there was something in her words, but everyone didn't dare to disobey the Queen's face in public.

During a palace banquet, everyone had their own thoughts, some were happy and some were sad. After the banquet was over, Li Yan took Gu Qianli away quickly, as if there was something disgusting chasing after him.

After Gu Qianli went back, she went into the small kitchen. She saw that Li Yan didn't eat much at the banquet, but only tasted one or two pieces of pastry. Let's order supper.

She chose a piece of fresh pork, cut a small piece of lean meat, and chose a few prawns, opened the back, removed the prawn threads, peeled off the shells, chopped the lean meat and prawns into minced meat, mixed fine salt, cooking wine, soy sauce, Seasoned the chicken powder, mixed with a little chopped chives to enhance the color, then rolled the dough into thin slices, cut into small squares and wrapped a bowl of wontons, boiled in hot water and hung fresh with chicken broth, Only then did the small wontons be served in a celadon soup bowl, and I didn't forget to sprinkle some chives on top.

"Brother Hong, I don't think you have eaten anything, so I made you a bowl of small wontons. You can go to sleep after eating." Gu Qianli greeted Li Yan with a bad face.

"It's hard work. I don't want to go to bed early at this late hour. I'm not very hungry." Seeing her coming, the frost on Li Yan's face melted a lot, and he took the soup bowl Said.

"Thinking that you haven't eaten, I'll be so worried that I can't sleep. Let's eat while it's hot. I made a few less on purpose. Although this is easy to digest, it's not good to eat too much at night." Gu Qianli urged him to eat quickly .

"Okay, thank you Li'er." Li Yan's heart warmed up, and he sat down with a bowl and started to eat. After a while, there was no soup left, "It's delicious, really fresh." He couldn't help but praise.

Seeing that he ate so much, Gu Qian was very distracted, and took water to rinse his mouth before going to rest.

Looking at her busy little figure, Li Yan couldn't help saying softly, "Li'er, how lonely I would be if you weren't here."

Gu Qianli who walked to the door, heard his words, couldn't help but stop, and then she walked out firmly, because she knew that she would stay by his side and would not leave, so there was nothing to hesitate of.

On the second day, the empress summoned Gu Qian to leave her palace and chatted for a while. She didn't ask how the imperial concubine became young, nor did she ask what the imperial concubine did with her a few days ago. How is Yan's appetite, how is his health, etc., then let Gu Qianli go back.

Gu Qianli was a little puzzled, she thought that the queen would definitely ask her, and even prepared a speech, which actually confused her.

As a result, as soon as she went out, she knew why the queen didn't move at all, because she only needed to see her, and the imperial concubine would make moves. The queen simply used her as bait to see how much she had installed in her palace. The imperial concubine's eyeliner, but she doesn't blame the queen, at least the queen has never taken any malicious measures against herself.

Secretly stuffing the little maid who bumped into her just now into the note in her hand and putting it in her belt, Gu Qianli looked around, no one was paying attention to her, but she knew that there were countless pairs of eyes in the dark, already Pass this chance encounter to various places.

She pretended not to care and went back to the East Palace, until she came to her room, and then hastily opened the note tucked into her waist: "At three o'clock in Shenshi, by the Yuchi Lake, see you soon." There is no signature, but a drawing of a bird , she knew it was Skylark who wanted to see her.

Yuchi Lake is located in a relatively remote corner on the west side of the imperial palace. You have to go through a forest and around a promenade to get here.Because a few court ladies and eunuchs who fell into the water died here, there were some bad rumors over time, and it seemed gloomy. Everyone was generally afraid to come here, and over time it became deserted.

Skylark asked Gu Qianli to stay in this place, apparently relatively discreet and careful.Thinking of the imperial concubine's order, she couldn't help but tremble with fear. Standing here looking at the deserted lake that was about to freeze, she felt that her whole body was trembling.

Gu Qianli found an excuse to get out of the East Palace, and took a detour before arriving at the shore of Yuchi Lake. She stood silently in the distance and glanced at Skylark, and her panic expression fell into her eyes.

After a while, she appeared behind Yunque, and patted her on the shoulder lightly. She walked silently, but her dark skin in the past was pale and dead today. Yunque, who was patted on the shoulder, suddenly turned her head Then he saw a dead white face and red lips.I cried out in shock.

"Ah." Skylark screamed in fright.

"It's me, what is sister afraid of?" Gu Qianli asked coldly.

Skylark heard the voice of Xiao Ion, and then came back to his senses, "Xiao Ion, you scared me to death, walking silently, you are a human or a ghost."

"Elder sister thinks I'm human or human, and thinks I'm a ghost or a ghost." Gu Qian's smirk didn't even make sense, but suddenly he felt very creepy, and Skylark shivered unknowingly.

"Little Ion, don't be joking, how can my sister make such a decision, my own life is still in the hands of others."

Gu Qianli knew that she was just a slave under the control of others, so she didn't intend to scare her to death or kill her, so she chuckled softly: "I know my sister's difficulties, it's just a joke, sister don't worry Come on, I don’t know why you came to me today.”

Only then did Yunque breathe a sigh of relief, and patted Xiaoion on the shoulder: "Your joke almost scared me to death, isn't it because the imperial concubine thought that it was almost time for you to take the antidote, so she asked me to bring it to you. I heard that the empress is looking for you today, can I make things difficult for you?"
