The Grand Secretary’s Pampered Wife

Chapter 375 Princess (Part 2)

Concubine Jing pinched the imperial decree in her hand with a cold expression.

Cai Momo grabbed her arm and knelt down. Her face turned pale with fright, and her voice was trembling: "Your Majesty! This servant kneels down for you! Don't be impulsive! Your Majesty is just fascinated by ghosts for a while! Wait a while... ...Your Majesty will be fine after a while!"

Naturally, these words were just a kind of consolation, but besides this, Madam Cai couldn't think of any other way.

"I'm begging you, slave, please put the imperial decree back... put it back, okay..."

"Your Majesty is not the only one, you also have Princess Ning An...don't be impulsive... think about the princess..."

Concubine Jing said in a daze: "Ning An will never come back in this life...I can't come back..."

"No!" Cai Momo choked up and shook her head, "The queen mother said that as long as the princess dares to marry, she will not be allowed to come back for the rest of her life... It's just an angry word. The queen mother loves the princess so much. If the princess really wants to come back, how could the queen mother reject her? outside?"

Concubine Jing murmured: "Can Ning An come back?"

"Yes... Yes!" Seeing Dowager Jing's dazed expression, Nanny Cai stood up calmly, and carefully stretched out her hand to hold the end of the imperial decree, "Your Majesty, give the imperial edict to the servant... the servant Put it away for you...Later, the servant will grind the ink for the empress...The empress sent the princess a letter from home, saying that she misses the princess..."

Concubine Jing looked confused: "Write a letter to Ning An..."

Madam Cai pulled the edict out of her hand little by little: "Yes! Yes, my lady! Write a letter to Princess Ning'an! You haven't written your family letter this month yet!"

Concubine Jing did not resist in the end, her hand dropped.

Nanny Cai held all the imperial edicts in her hands, she let out a long sigh of relief, and hurriedly put the imperial edicts into another hidden compartment.

The former secret compartment has been exposed, but now this one is under the floor.

Fearing that Concubine Jing would regret it, Nanny Cai hurried to the study to get a pen, ink, paper and inkstone: "Come on, empress! Write a letter to the princess!"

No matter what, I have to divert the attention of the empress dowager first!

Concubine Jing lightly raised the pen.

In the night when no one was watching, she closed her eyes and shed a tear.

...

Xiao Liulang went to the countryside, Xiao Jingkong went to Xu Congee Congee's house, Gu Yan and Gu Xiaoshun went to learn art again, Gu Jiao felt that it was such a perfect timing that it was unreasonable not to do something secretly.

She sneaked into Ding'anhou's mansion.

The Marquis of Ding'an Mansion was as quiet as ever. Originally, Gu Chenglin was a little noisy, but a few days ago, Master Gu didn't have a carriage.

Walking from the countryside to the capital, both legs were almost broken, and when I got home, I fell ill.

Gu Chenglin is serving the sick in his father's yard today.

This happened to be convenient for Gu Jiao. After all, Gu Chenglin and Gu Chengfeng lived in the same yard, so it's not a bad thing to have fewer people staring at them.

Gu Jiao walked into Gu Chengfeng's yard with ease.

Gu Chengfeng was taking a bath, singing in the barrel while taking a bath.

Gu Jiao didn't know opera, but somehow felt that his opera accent was very nice.

"嘿~嘿~咱~咒~咒~When the geese fly in the sky~The voice of the slave falls on the screen~"

Gu Chengfeng sang with great devotion, with a melodious tone, melodious voice, and charming gestures.

"You can also sing female voice?" Gu Jiao asked, bending down and looking into his ear.

The tone of this sentence is so sparse and normal that it seems to be saying hello to an acquaintance on the street, but the reality is that Gu Chengfeng is bathing, singing in his own room, and has nothing to do with it!

In order not to be heard by others, he specially picked a time when Gu Chenglin was not in the yard, and turned away all the servants.

So he didn't expect to be disturbed at all.

Saying that the interruptions are light, this is really frightening!

Gu Chengfeng fell into the water with a plop and almost choked himself to death!

When he sat up while holding onto the edge of the wooden barrel, he already drank a few mouthfuls of his own bath water!

He grabbed the towel hanging on the wooden barrel to block a certain unspeakable place, and panicked so much that the hair in the barrel exploded: "Why are you here in the middle of the night! You only picked when I was taking a bath! What strange habit do you have? ?"

Last time it was in the toilet, this time it was in the tub again, Gu Chengfeng seriously suspected that she did it on purpose!

Gu Jiao spread her hands: "I didn't know that you were the one who sang the opera, who told you to take a bath and still sing opera, and also sing operas with female voices."

Gu Chengfeng blushed: "Student is clean and ugly, which one is which one is singing! Do you understand!"

"I don't understand." Gu Jiao said bluntly.

Gu Chengfeng: "..."

Gu Chengfeng gritted his teeth: "You you you you you...you go out!"

"Oh." Gu Jiao turned around, opened the door and walked out. After everyone had stepped over the threshold, a small head popped in again, "It's quite nice."

Gu Chengfeng: ...shut up!

The last time when she pretended to be an assassin and framed Nanny Cai, Gu Chengfeng used a voice that was not similar to her usual one. Gu Jiao didn't take it too seriously at the time, she just thought it was because of their high professionalism as thieves, they could not only hide their appearance , but also to disguise a little voice.

But after listening to it tonight, it's not like pretending to be a little voice, he can really change his voice!

"Hey, what voice do you still have?" Gu Chengfeng came out of the room with a dark face, Gu Jiao asked him.

"No more!" Gu Chengfeng said angrily.

Gu Jiao: "Oh."

Gu Chengfeng thought she had given up, but she suddenly asked again: "Can you speak loli?"

"Then... Yu Jieyin?"

"Young voice?"

"Queen's voice?"

Gu Chengfeng stopped and looked at her inexplicably: "Although I don't know what you are talking about, but... when did you become so talkative!"

Doesn’t your small horn speaker only have a small headroom!

Gu Jiao blinked, and sure enough she stopped pestering him to change his voice, she took out a copper coin from her purse and handed it to him.

"What?" Gu Chengfeng asked.

Gu Jiao said: "Tip, I will reward you."

Gu Chengfeng: "..."

The two of them left the courtyard and walked forward at a leisurely pace, but the old Hou Ye was not on the left side, and most of the hidden guards in the mansion were not here either.

When passing by a cabin, Gu Chengfeng said: "When you come to see me in the future, can you say hello in advance? Or, at least knock on the door."

I just ran into him singing in the shower today, in case one day...

He is a man, and it is always inconvenient for him to be bumped into.

"Oh, is that so?" Gu Jiao raised her hand lightly, and knocked on the door of the cabin.

crunch——

The cabin door opened.

Both of them were taken aback for a moment, no one expected that there was really someone here, and the person who came out was actually Gu Changqing.

Both of them were wearing night clothes and both held masks in their hands.

When Gu Chengfeng saw his elder brother, without saying a word, he put on the mask, performed lightness kung fu and ran away!

Gu Changqing frowned: "Who is it!"

Gu Chengfeng has long since disappeared.

"Did someone pass by here just now?" Gu Changqing asked.

Gu Jiao spread her hands: "No way..."

That guy is not human.

It's not that she wants to say that!

Gu Changqing withdrew his gaze from looking around, and looked at Gu Jiao suspiciously: "It's so late, why are you here? Where are you going in night clothes?"

Gu Jiao: "This..."

Gu Changqing asked, "Come to see me?"

Gu Jiao thought for a while: "That's fine."

Gu Changqing: ...whatever it is? Is it right?

"I want to steal the imperial decree." Gu Jiao said bluntly, she was bumped into anyway, and no one would believe her if she really said that she came for a walk.

Gu Changqing was shocked: "What imperial decree? Why are you stealing the imperial decree?"

Gu Jiao said calmly: "Concubine Jing has an imperial decree in her hand, and I want to steal that."

Gu Changqing looked at Gu Jiao suspiciously: "How do you know that she has an imperial decree? You investigated her...you stole her things?!"

Gu Jiao blinked her eyes, she was very innocent.

Gu Changqing gasped: "You are crazy! There are Dragon Shadow Guards by her side, if you approach her, you will die!"

Gu Jiao blinked her eyes and said nothing.

Gu Zhangqing suddenly couldn't get angry, no, he was still angry: "It's too dangerous, don't do this kind of thing alone in the future."

Of course he never thought that Gu Jiao would pull Gu Chengfeng along.

Gu Changqing asked, "When did you go?"

Gu Jiao thought for a while: "The day before yesterday?"

Gu Changqing frowned: "Did you startle her?"

Gu Jiao nodded: "Yes."

Gu Changqing took another breath, does this girl know what she is doing? She was shocked and she was able to retreat unscathed. Should he say she was lucky or lucky?

Besides, it's only been a few days, and she dares to go again?

This girl's courage is made of iron, right?

Gu Changqing didn't know what to say.

He raised his forehead: "It's too dangerous to steal the imperial decree now, and she may transfer the imperial decree... Do you know what the imperial decree is?"

Gu Jiao shook her head: "I didn't have time to watch it."

Gu Changqing thought thoughtfully: "Could it be... the imperial decree issued by the first emperor before his death to let Empress Dowager Zhuang be buried?"

Gu Changqing's reaction was the same as Gu Chengfeng's, which is not surprising. After all, there was an uproar about Concubine Jing stealing the imperial decree and burning it on fire. time leaked.

If Concubine Jing had an imperial edict in her hand, Gu Changqing could only think of this imperial edict.

Gu Changqing said: "Leave the imperial decree to me, don't act rashly, it is important to deal with her, but..."

Your safety is more important.

Gu Changqing couldn't say such nasty words.

The night wind was a little strong, and the bunch of little hairs on Gu Jiao's head rose again.

Gu Changqing raised his hand and gently pressed down her little hair, and when he let go, it stubbornly curled up again!

Gu Changqing suddenly wanted to laugh.

He thought of Gu Yan, who is worthy of being a dragon and a phoenix, even the little hair on his head is as stubborn.

He gently rubbed the top of her hair: "I'll take you back."

Gu Jiao: "Oh."

When Gu Changqing sent Gu Jiao out of the mansion, he walked through the main entrance. He asked someone to prepare a carriage, asked Gu Jiao to sit in it, and left Ding'an Hou's mansion dignifiedly.

The carriage stopped at Bishui Alley.

"You enter the room first." Gu Changqing said to Gu Jiao.

Gu Jiao suppressed the urge to steal the imperial decree, and entered the room slowly.

Gu Changqing went to the old Jijiu's side.

Lao Jijiu is inspecting the stove to make candied fruit. That's right, all the candied fruit for aunt every day is made by Lao Jijiu himself! The taste is better than the market! What's more, less sugar, healthier!

The old Jijiu met Gu Changqing in the study.

Gu Changqing explained why he came here.

The old Jijiu stroked his beard: "You mean... Concubine Jing probably didn't burn the imperial edict? This is strange, she and Zhuang Jinse are at odds, if there is really an imperial edict to kill Zhuang Jinse in her hand, why is she Why don't you take it out sooner?"

Gu Changqing said: "Could it be used as a trump card to blackmail the Queen Mother?"

The old Jijiu pondered for a moment, and said: "Why do you want to blackmail Zhuang Jinse? Wouldn't it be better to kill him directly? What Zhuang Jinse can give her, His Majesty can also give. On the contrary, because of Zhuang Jinse's constraints, His Majesty's power has been greatly reduced, and what you can give her is also So no matter how you look at it, killing Zhuang Jinse is her best choice."

Gu Changqing asked: "Is it not written in the imperial decree that the empress dowager should be buried?"

The old Jijiu frowned: "But, if Zhuang Jinse wasn't buried, what would it be?"

Gu Changqing was quite troubled: "There is no third living person who has seen the imperial decree, and no one knows what is written in the imperial decree."

Old Jijiu's eyes lit up: "No, maybe there is someone who knows."

Gu Changqing looked at him suspiciously.

Old Jijiu: "Princess Ning'an."

Gu Changqing: "Her?"

The old Jijiu said: "She is Concubine Jing's daughter, and she is the closest person in the world to Concubine Jing, maybe...she has seen that imperial decree!"

Gu Changqing hesitated for a moment, then said: "But she is far away in the frontier, even if she saw her, she will not come back for a while. It will be a long time before I send someone to ask her. Besides...she may not be able to tell. "

If Princess Ning An really saw it, and she still didn't mention the content of the imperial decree after so long, then there is only one possibility - she can't mention it.

Gu Changqing sighed: "Could it be that no one else knows the content of the imperial decree?"

"Maybe... there is another one." The old Jijiu said.

"Who?" Gu Changqing asked.

The old Jijiu looked at the West Room next door with a complicated expression: "Xiao Heng's mother, Princess Xinyang."
