Chapter 1090
Chapter [-] Refusal of Marriage
In the imperial garden, the emperor and Gu Liuyun walked on the stone bridge one after the other.

Today, the emperor specially summoned Gu Liuyun to the palace to play chess and enjoy flowers with him to kill time.

"What happened back then was indeed because I was sorry for your family." The emperor was deeply moved as he walked.

Gu Liuyun lowered his head and didn't speak, because in this case, he really didn't know how he should continue.

When the two walked to the pavilion, the emperor suddenly stopped and asked, "I also want to do something to compensate you."

"Now you should be at the age to start a family. I don't know if there are any of my princesses that you like. If there is, you can tell me boldly."

The emperor really wanted to compensate Gu Liuyun. He was a military general, unlike ordinary civil servants who married a princess and could only hold vain jobs. This move was undoubtedly to enhance Gu Liuyun's power and status. He even thought of two suitable candidates.

However, the suitable candidate for the emperor hadn't been spoken yet, and Gu Liuyun, who had been silent all this time, suddenly knelt down.

The emperor was taken aback, he didn't understand Gu Liuyun's actions, and wanted to help him up himself, but he listened to Gu Liuyun, "I dare you, please take back your orders."

"The emperor's princesses are all golden branches and jade leaves, and I can't afford it. In this life, I just want to spend the rest of my life with my beloved woman, and live together."

"You..." Hearing what Gu Liuyun said, the emperor reacted for a moment, and asked with a smile, "Listening to what you said, do you already have a woman you like?"

Gu Liuyun didn't hide anything, and nodded seriously, "I dare not hide from the emperor, I do already have a beloved woman, so I can't take advantage of the emperor's love."

"So that's the case, that's good, I don't mention what happened just now." The emperor really felt that he owed Gu Liuyun and just wanted to make up for him, but since he had no intention of marrying the princess, he would not make things difficult for Gu Liuyun.

After Gu Liuyun got the emperor's promise, he got up in peace.

The emperor asked curiously again, "Then who is the woman you like, do you need me to give you a marriage?"

Gu Liuyun was taken aback for a moment, thinking that He Lanshan hadn't cleared up her misunderstanding about her, her temper would not be at the mercy of others, and now is not a good time for the emperor to bestow her marriage.

So Gu Liuyun hastily declined the emperor's kindness, "I'm not afraid of the emperor's jokes if I say it out, there is a little misunderstanding between us recently, she is having trouble with me, now is really not a good time to give a marriage."

"Misunderstanding?" The emperor suddenly became interested again, and asked thoughtfully, "After you mentioned it, I also remembered that you didn't bring a woman with you when you came back."

"I heard that the outside world rumored that the woman was a concubine brought by you, and she was even pregnant. What's going on?" The emperor seemed to have no intention of taking a concubine from what Gu Liuyun said just now. What's the matter with people.

Gu Liuyun hesitated for a moment, and felt that it would be okay to tell the emperor about Wang Chuchu's life experience and experiences, so he told the truth.

"When I returned to Beijing, I did bring a woman with me, but it wasn't as rumored, it was my concubine."

Gu Liuyun still said helplessly, "Because this woman has encountered misfortune, and I was entrusted by her father on his deathbed. This woman's father died in battle, so naturally I have the responsibility to take good care of this woman."

"So that's how it is." The emperor looked suddenly enlightened, so he asked curiously, "Then what are your plans in the future?"

"The minister came back in a hurry, everything is not ready yet, I wanted to wait for everything to settle down, and find someone for this woman who can be entrusted to her for life."

Thinking of this, Gu Liuyun couldn't help but sighed, "It's just that I don't know how this rumor spread to the outside world."

"Because she is already pregnant and has no relatives in the capital, I can't let her be pointed behind her back, so I can't clarify the relationship with this woman."

When the emperor heard this, he also understood Gu Liuyun's difficulties.

"I'm already looking for a suitable candidate. If a marriage can be achieved in the future, I will naturally have a way to conceal it." Gu Liuyun confessed his plan, and the emperor had no objection.

"Okay, then this matter can be handled according to your wishes. If anyone needs my help, I will definitely help you." The emperor smiled heartily after speaking, and walked down from the pavilion.

Gu Liuyun breathed a sigh of relief, and followed the emperor down from the pavilion.

Afterwards, Gu Liuyun accompanied him in a game of Go at the waterside pavilion. Gu Liuyun deliberately gave up two games to the emperor, but he only won one game, which made the emperor smile happily.

Time passed quickly, and the sun was already slanting westward.

After Gu Liuyun resigned, when he came out of the imperial garden, he ran into Concubine Gao by accident.

He bowed to Concubine Gao, and originally planned to leave directly, but he didn't expect Concubine Gao to stop him.

"General Gu, please slow down." Concubine Gao Guifei said, then walked up to Gu Liuyun, narrowing her eyes slightly to look at him.

Gu Liuyun, who has always been vigilant and keen, felt a little uncomfortable when Gao Guifei scrutinized her eyes, and always felt that there was something strange and wrong.

Gu Liuyun said lightly, "Gao Guifei, what do you want to tell me?"

"No, I am a member of the harem, what can I tell General Gu." Gao Guifei withdrew her gaze from looking at Gu Liuyun, at least she is now convinced that he has not found out about the incident back then. .

In order to hide her embarrassment, Concubine Gao asked casually, "When you came out, was the Emperor still in the Imperial Garden?"

Gu Liuyun thought that she was only asking himself about the emperor's whereabouts, so he dispelled the doubts in his heart, "Return to Concubine Gao, the emperor was indeed in the imperial garden just now, as for now, I don't know."

"Okay, I understand." Concubine Gao calmly withdrew her gaze and headed towards the imperial garden.

Gu Liuyun walked towards the palace gate, but after taking two steps, he still felt something was wrong in his heart, so he turned his head and took a deep look at Concubine Gao's back.

He seemed to have thought of something suddenly, narrowed his eyes slightly, and then left the palace quickly.

Gu Liuyun quickly left the palace, and after returning to the general's mansion, he immediately locked himself in the study.

He put everything related to his father's case on the table, and he almost went through everything again with all his concentration, as if he wanted to find some clues from it.

In the palace at this time, Concubine Gao did not find the emperor in the imperial garden. After asking the maids and eunuchs, she learned that the emperor had probably gone to Concubine Gao's place, her eyes turned red with anger.

At this time, Concubine Gao was like a person who was ignited by jealousy. Since Concubine Yu was lifted from the ban, she immediately regained her previous honor and favor.
