in the sound of swallows

Chapter 157 Alliance
Master Shen and Bao Shi quickly turned around and knelt down to salute, and Shen Guiwu also knelt down.Shen Guiyan pursed her lips and looked up at him: "Why did the emperor come here so early?"

Gu Chaobei stepped into the door with a smile on his face, his stern face seemed to have been forgotten elsewhere.Holding a piece of smooth warm jade in his hand, he said: "I know that your elder brother will come back today, and his eyes will be red from crying. I begged the best warm jade from my mother, and I will let you apply it to my eyes later."

The voice is really gentle, it's even better than Shen Guiwu's, if you pinch it, you can squeeze out a piece of water from Taiye Lake.

Shen Guiyan couldn't help shivering, her eyes were a little frightened.

"Stay flat." He stepped in, put his arms around her waist, and put the warm jade into Shen Guiyan's arms.Then he looked at the guard at the door and said, "What are you doing?"

Baoshan pouted and said: "There were people who wanted to offend the empress just now, and these people came to escort her."

Gu Chaobei smiled lightly, waved his hands and said, "Let's go down, everyone in this palace is our own, how can anyone offend Yan'er? She is my heart, who doesn't know? It's too late to protect her, how can she bully her?" go?"

Hearing this, Bao Shan gave Bao Shi a smug look, then sent the group of guards out to stand there, and closed the door.

Bao Shi hasn't recovered yet. Doesn't this mean that Shen Guiyan won't be favored after a miscarriage?These people were not surprised why the emperor came to the Yonghe Palace, as if they had seen it often.

Master Shen had a lamp in his heart, which was shining brightly, and he cupped his hands and said to the emperor, "Your Majesty, forgive me, this bitch doesn't understand the rules, so I was rude just now."

"Why are you being rude?" Gu Chaobei asked curiously as he sat down on the chair.

Shen Guiwu said indifferently: "Fang Caichen asked about the place where his biological mother Qin was buried, and had some conflicts with Bao. The emperor doesn't need to care about it."

When Bao Shi heard this title, he felt extremely uncomfortable.Shen Guiwu should also call her mother, but since he was a child, he would rather be beaten all over by her and call her "Bao Shi".

Even people who are so angry can't change his faults!
"Your Majesty has learned that the minister just said that the Qin family was buried in the ancestral grave, and the imperial concubine suddenly became angry and even threatened the elders with the emperor's power." Bao said dissatisfiedly: "Are you blaming the minister for being rude?"

Master Shen took a deep breath, his temples throbbing with anger.Others know that one family helps the whole family, and now that Yan'er is the big lucky star of the Shen family, it's fine for her not to be grateful, but to provoke the relationship between the emperor and Yan'er, saying that Yan'er is wrong?What's on your mind?
Bao did not see Master Shen's anger, but only looked at Shen Guiyan with hatred.

Shen Guiyan sat beside the emperor and chuckled lightly.The emperor raised his eyebrows and said, "The Qin family Madam mentioned is Yan'er's biological mother?"

"Exactly." Bao said: "At least she is from the Shen family. At that time, she didn't enter the ancestral grave because of other reasons. Later... Later, the minister's wife found her bones and buried them back in the ancestral grave."

"Oh?" The emperor smiled: "Where did you find it?"

Bao was taken aback for a moment, he didn't expect the emperor to ask this.Of course, she was just talking about the scene, and it was a big project to be buried in the ancestral grave.

"I found it... somewhere on the outskirts of the city. At that time, Qin's body was sent to Yizhuang." Bao's eyes flickered.

Gu Chaobei and Shen Guiyan sneered at the same time, let alone Bao Shi, even Shen Guiwu was startled, and looked sideways at the two of them in surprise.

Shen Guiyan said: "The Qin family's tomb is in Luoxia Mountain. The emperor built it himself. It's not somewhere on the outskirts of the city."

Shen Shiqing was startled, and looked up at Gu Chaobei in disbelief, Shen Guiwu was also somewhat unexpected.

A tomb built by the emperor himself?
"Well, back then I was just a concubine of the prime minister's mansion. To please the beauties, I buried the Qin family in Luoxia Mountain generously. Afterwards, I took Yan'er to visit and was fined when I came back."

Speaking of what happened back then, the emperor only thought it was an interesting memory, but Master Shen and Bao Shi were shocked enough.

The crime of deceiving the emperor, Bao's mouth is closed, it is the crime of deceiving the emperor!

"Your majesty forgive me, my wife... My wife said something wrong, she may have found the wrong person to be buried in the ancestral tomb, my wife will just go back..." Bao kowtowed repeatedly, panicked.Master Shen also knelt down on the other end, trembling slightly.

"Father-in-law and mother-in-law, what are you doing?" Gu Chaobei was not angry at all, instead he helped them both up with a smile on his face: "We are all a family, and it's just a wrong sentence. What can't be forgiven? Now I value it very much." The Shen family, father-in-law should have noticed it too, why should he be frightened by such a trivial matter?"

Shen Guiwu watched quietly, only feeling that the smile on the face of the emperor in front of him was not sincere at all, and there was no smile in the eyes of the Shen family and his wife.Only when he turned his head to look at Shen Guiyan did he realize a lot.

This is really interesting.

Yan'er seemed to be a bad face, and the second elder of the Shen family was terrified as soon as she came.The emperor came to sing his face, and the father-in-law and mother-in-law yelled again, and said that they were a family, and they were given a lot of warm care. It seemed that the two elders were moved.

It's a good match.

"I have prepared banquets and songs and dances. It's rare for your family to get together, so don't be so cautious." Gu Chaobei smiled and said, "Let's go and have dinner in the courtyard."

Before Bao Shi could recover, Master Shen had already pinched her severely, his eyes were full of warnings.She quickly restrained herself, followed by saluting.

Shen Guiyan walked a few steps slower, Shen Guiwu came up and said softly: "The emperor is sincere to you."

Shen Guiyan pursed her lips, she knew that this ruffian seemed to be sincere to her since a long time ago.It's a pity that the sincerity is true, but it will not compromise for her, nor will it put her above everything else.

This is also very good, proving that he is a heroic emperor.It's just that such an emperor will not let her depend on her as her husband.Because there is no way to rely on it.

When all parties are seated, the dancers come up to perform.Shen Guiyan raised her eyebrows, and asked Gu Chaobei in a low voice: "Why do these dancers look like... Your Majesty, recently?"

It seemed that the youngest dancer was over [-] years old, and the oldest dancer was probably in her thirties, but she was in her mid-mature and her charm was still there.

Where did you find the middle-aged and elderly singing and dancing troupe?
Gu Chaobei smiled wickedly, half covered his face with his sleeves, and said in a low voice, "What kind of look does your father like?"

Shen Guiyan: "..."

Dare he want to choose a concubine for his father?However, she knows Bao's temperament best.With such a small mind, there is no room for a few people.

But seeing Gu Chaobei's enthusiastic eyes, Shen Guiyan still pointed at two delicate ones.

My daughter understands her father's temperament better.Through observation, it was found that Shen Guiyan pointed out that these two were indeed correct, and Master Shen nodded his head in approval.

Gu Chaobei looked like a son-in-law, without any airs, chatted with Master Shen about the world, and even took Shen Guiwu to drink together. Gui Yan nodded straightly: "I married a good man!"

Gu Chaobei smiled and said: "The dancers in my palace are not young, and I haven't allowed anyone yet. If my father-in-law doesn't mind, can you help me solve my problems?"

Shen Guiwu glanced at Gu Chaobei, then at Bao's face that suddenly turned purple, and couldn't help adding another note in his heart, this is still a vengeful emperor, no matter who offends him or Yan'er, he will I seem to remember them all.

Master Shen generously agreed, picked two of the most beautiful dancers, and took them away when they left the palace.

From now on, the alliance between the Shen family and the emperor has been established.

Master Shen and Mrs. Bao went out of the palace first, and Mrs. Bao wanted to drive the two dancers out of the carriage as soon as they left the palace. However, Mr. Shen, who was drunk, seemed to wake up suddenly, grabbed Bao's hand and threw her off the carriage. .

"As a wife, you must know how to manage the house. As the wife of a minister, you should understand the truth and understand the will of the king. You can go back by yourself, live in your own yard, and don't come out to be ashamed."

If she was struck by lightning, she would be thrown on the street just like that, no matter how much she cried and shouted, the carriage in front would not stop.

The surrounding people pointed and pointed, Bao was so angry that he ran back to the Shen Mansion with his own legs, vowing to drive out the two goblins from the palace.

Shen Guiwu was still in the Yonghe Palace, and the remnants in the courtyard were cleaned up by the palace people. He sat with the emperor and concubine, looking up at the sky at dusk.

"I won't let others know that I have also entered the palace today." Shen Guiwu said.

Gu Chaobei looked at him drunkenly, and said with a light smile: "After all, the person recommended by General Yuwen is smart."

As he spoke, he looked at Shen Guiyan beside him: "Smart as Yan'er."

Shen Guiwu smiled, looked at Shen Guiyan softly and said, "Yan'er was stupid at first, because she listened too much to her master's teachings and was too honest, and was bullied for a long time. I don't know that after I left, she became so stupid. How much smarter."

Shen Guiyan raised her eyebrows in disbelief: "Second brother should praise me for marrying the right person with discerning eyes, and escaped many disasters, step by step to the present."

"Really?" Shen Guiwu smiled dotingly: "Aren't you afraid of spiders now?"

Shen Guiyan's face froze.

"Aren't you afraid of screaming in the middle of the night?"

Shen Guiyan leaned into Gu Chaobei's arms.

"Still not afraid of the dark shadows in the room?"

"..." Gu Chaobei raised his eyebrows and looked at the person in his arms. Shen Guiwu had already hit the nail on the head. Shen Guiyan, who seemed to be omnipotent, had so many things to fear?
Moreover, he didn't know any of them.

Seeing Shen Guiyan's appearance, Shen Guiwu laughed, turned to look at Gu Chaobei and said, "When Yan'er was a child, she would put a dagger next to her pillow when she slept, because she said she was afraid that people would come into her room."

The corner of his mouth twitched slightly, and Gu Chaobei nodded, not knowing whether to laugh or cry: "I've seen that thing before."

Now he still has a scar on his shoulder.

Shen Guiyan blushed a little, coughed lightly and said, "It's not released now."

Ever since she married Gu Chaobei, she hasn't let her go.

Shen Guiwu nodded in relief, and said: "Yan'er is stronger than anyone else, but she is not invincible. After all, she is still a girl's family."
