Gu Jiao went to the palace again and came to the southwest corner again.

When the bee maker saw that she came back so late, he asked, "Miss Gu, do you still need honey?"

In the afternoon, he heard Qin Gonggong in Renshou palace call her Miss Gu.

I thought it was just a girl related to Renshou palace, but the Queen Mother's friends treated her more respectfully than the crown princess, and the bee maker did not dare to neglect her.

At this time, the sun is setting, and the sky is gray and blue, leaving only a red glow of the setting sun to light up the last bit of twilight.

Gu Jiao's eyes fall on a pavilion shrouded by the setting sun. The pavilion is a little far away. From her point of view, she can only see a bucket arch cornice. house

"What's that over there?" Gu Jiao raised her hand and asked.

The bee maker followed Gu Jiao's direction and looked at the tile in the sunset. He said, "that... Seems to be Chen's residence."

Chen and Zhao have been at loggerheads for a long time. Naturally, Chen's protons will not live in such a luxurious and beautiful palace. Instead, they are given a secluded courtyard, separated from the back Palace by a beekeeping passage, and guarded by guards at both ends.

Gu Jiao looked at the eaves of Dou Gong, which was engulfed by the night, and gradually understood the meaning of the five words "imperial palace, southwest corner".

It's not that the other party lives in the southwest corner of the palace, nor does the other party go in and out of the southwest corner of the palace, but standing in the southwest corner of the palace to see the other party.

The summer in Zhaoguo is hotter than that in chenguoyan.

The cicada on the tree keeps calling, which seems to add some dryness.

There is also a small lotus pond nearby, with frogs chirping from time to time. It's really not a comfortable place for self-cultivation.

The lantern under the corridor was gradually lit up by the palace people, and the patrolling bodyguard was armed with a long sword and looked majestic.

Suddenly, a small figure came into the air.

The little figure's action was very light and didn't startle any bodyguards. However, a gray shadow suddenly flashed out in the seemingly insignificant corner. It was very fast and as fast as lightning. In the blink of an eye, it put a curved knife on the little figure's neck.

"Well, songye, let her in. She's my highness's guest."

Inside the room, a lazy voice with a trace of banter came slowly.

The man in grey coldly received the machete in his hand, but the vigilance in his eyes remained unchanged.

He looked at Gu Jiao for a moment, as if his machete would be on Gu Jiao's neck again as long as Gu Jiao was a little unruly.

Gu Jiaoyuan didn't plan to hide her identity. She wore her own clothes and didn't even wear a mask.

She pushed the door in with ease.

There are a lot of oil lamps in the house, but the brightness of the oil lamps is limited, and it's dim yellow to light the whole room.

Yuan Tang is sitting on a chair, and a palace man changes his dressing.

It seemed that he was injured in his waist and abdomen, the gauze was covered with blood, and the smell of acne medicine filled the room.

His dress was wide open, revealing a strong chest, massive abdominal muscles and two distinct lines of mermaid.

I don't know whether it's the heat or the pain. There's crystal sweat dripping down from his wheat skin, flowing through every compact but not exaggerated texture.

This is a body full of male strength, the air suddenly filled with the smell of male hormones.

Yuan Tang didn't expect Gu Jiao to come in so quickly. He was quick and quick, so he gave him medicine and wrapped gauze.

"Step back." He raised his hand when the palace people wanted to tidy his clothes.

"Yes." The palace man packed up and stepped down.

Yuan Tang will close his clothes and fasten his belt. He is a man. It's no big deal to be seen, but why——

Yuan Tang glanced at Gu Jiao.

Gu Jiao's look can be magnanimous, more magnanimous than the person he was seen.

This woman is really interesting.

"You step down, too." Yuan Tang orders the palace people in the room.

The crowd retreated in silence.

Just now, the man in grey was guarding at the door, and he didn't plan to go far away.

Gu Jiao felt a very strong breath from the man in grey. She was almost as good as the old Marquis. She didn't know who would be better if they fought each other.

Of course, if you are yourself in your heyday, you can cut his throat.

"Don't care about him." Yuan Tang said with a smile.

As early as in Liu Yisheng's yard, Gu Jiao and Yuan Tang met. At that time, Gu Jiao only felt that Yuan Tang's appearance was beautiful, but not perfect.

At least compared with his cousin Liu Yisheng, he is a little less exquisite.

But today, seeing his figure, we can see that Chen guoproton is also the best among men.

Gu Jiao looked at him with great generosity.

Yuan Tang couldn't help laughing: "should I call you doctor Gu, or should I call you lady Xiao?"

"Whatever you want." Gu Jiao said.

"Well, Dr. Gu." Yuan Tang smiles and says, "come to me so late. What's the matter?"

This is a clear question, but people always need one or two words of nonsense.

Gu Jiao didn't like to talk nonsense. She glanced at his wound and said, "you went to assassinate the emperor yourself?"

Yuan Tang is dumb for a moment, low a smile: "so important assassinate, don't go out personally how?"

There is no doubt that he admits everything.

Gu Jiao light way: "you admit pour is straightforward."

Yuan Tang wry smile: "from the moment my ears disappeared, I was ready to be exposed, but I didn't expect so soon, let alone you."

Yuan Tang didn't make a meaningless excuse, only a fool would take others as a fool, Gu Jiao can find out this step, it shows that she has nothing to do with a fool.

Since you can't fool around, why waste your strength?

"Why?" Gu Jiao asked.

"The responsibility." Yuan Tang said.

Gu Jiao asked: "the order of Chen Guojun?"

Yuan Tang turned to look out of the window at the night: "I have my own selfish heart. My aunt died in the hands of Empress Dowager Zhuang and Emperor Zhao. At that time, they had not turned against each other. My aunt was forced to die by them. So both of them... Are my enemies. "

"Your aunt is meticulous, and it's their duty to kill her." Gu Jiao's eyes always fell on his face, not half avoided.

Sometimes a person's strength is not necessarily reflected in his martial arts, status and talent. It is the strength in his heart that is the most invincible.

This is a woman with power in her heart.

Yuan Tang takes his eyes back and confronts her eyes: "so what's right or wrong in the world? I was born in the state of Chen, the prince of the state of Chen. If the two countries don't get along with each other, I will fight with the state of Zhao one day. I won't let the Empress Dowager Zhuang and the emperor of the state of Zhao go without my aunt. "

Gu Jiao asked, "did you do the same thing that provoked the Marquis's house and Marshal's house in Ding'an?"

"Yes." Yuan Tang did not deny it.

Gu Jiao then said, "it's you who went to the barracks to assassinate Gu Changqing?"

Yuan Tang: "yes."

Gu Jiao: "is it you who go to qianyin pavilion to find Feishuang?"

Yuan Tang: "that's right."

Yuan Tang admitted it all.

Gu Jiao's look was very calm from beginning to end. She was not surprised or puzzled because he admitted so simply. Instead, she pondered for a moment and asked him, "how can you know so many things?"

Tang Ming's hobby, the identity of Feishuang, and even the whereabouts of the emperor.

Yuan Tang said with a smile, "do you think the king of Chen will send an incompetent proton to Zhao?"

This is also true, just as Zhao also sent a very talented Anjun king to Chen as a pledge.

Protons who have no skills will die in other countries even if they go to enemy countries.

Yuan Tang held out his hand: "can you give me back the tassel?"

"No way." Gu Jiao refused.

Yuan Tang sighed helplessly: "it was given to my mother's concubine by my grandmother. It was hung on the jade pendant. There were only two pieces in total. One was given to my mother's concubine and the other to my aunt."

It's useless for Gu Jiao to play the sympathy card.

No return is no return.

Yuan Tang see Gu Jiao is really iron heart, know their ears 80% can't get back, heartache to accept this fact.

"What are you going to do?" He asked.

"Tell on you." Gu Jiao said frankly.

Yuantang: is it so direct?

Yuan Tang said: "at least I helped you, you forget?"

Gu Jiao said, "it's like you didn't benefit."

The corner of Yuan Tang's mouth flicks: "cousin, how can I tell you everything?"

The Crown Princess uses a cat to test Xiao LIULANG. It's Yuantang who has the cat taken away. But originally, the cat belongs to Yuantang. If Gu Jiao didn't tell him about it, he would also be involved.

Whether this matter is owed or not, at most, Yuan Tang is kind-hearted and helpful.

After Gu Jiao left, the man in grey stepped in: "Your Highness, go down and kill her!"

Yuan Tang snorted coldly: "do you think it's easy to kill her?"

"She's still young. She's not good at martial arts. In another three or two years, I'm afraid I won't be able to kill you! "

With the ability of the man in grey, he could be alert to the movement within a hundred steps, but the girl was only discovered by him when she came under his nose.

Yuan Tang faint smile: "in three or two years you are not now you, how? Are you afraid of her? "

"No!" Said the man in grey.

Yuan Tang covered the wound, and finally showed a trace of pain: "OK, this girl is available, Zhao'an is the main, it's a pity to kill."

The man in Grey thought and nodded: "there is no one in the world that your highness can't win over."

"Except for my cousin." Yuan Tang is cold hum, not good spirit ground says, "this highness takes a means to win over a person to be able to win over easily, dig out a heart nest to him, he can't feel however!"

Gu Jiao went back to Bishui Hutong.

Xiao LIULANG has been away from the Imperial Academy. He is tutoring xiaojingkong in his study.

Gu Jiao did not disturb the two, first went to the next door to see Wei Gonggong's injury, then went to the aunt's house.

The emperor suddenly wanted to eat candied duck. Gu Changqing went to the kitchen to help the old man pluck duck feathers.

The emperor was the only one in the room.

Seeing her coming, the emperor's eyes brightened, but he thought that she was the Empress Dowager of Zhuang. Her eyes dimmed again, and he asked, "didn't you change the medicine today?"

"I have something to say to your majesty." Gu Jiao said.

"What's the matter?" Asked the emperor.

Gu Jiao said, "I know who is the assassin who assassinated your majesty."

The emperor said with a sneer, "don't deliberately find someone to make a pot for your good aunt."

"I'm not that bored." Gu Jiao took out the multicolored tassel from her arms. "It was pulled from the assassin when I was fighting with him. I asked your majesty if he knew this tassel, but your majesty said he didn't. Does your majesty know why you don't? Because the assassin is not from the palace of Zhao state, but he knows his Majesty's whereabouts like the back of his hand. "

The emperor frowned: "who is he?"

Gu Jiaoding looked at the emperor, said: "Chen proton."

Gu Jiao's words are half true and half false, except that the spike is not pulled from the assassin, the rest are right.

However, Gu Jiao only has such a piece of grain, and there is no other evidence.

Whether the emperor believed it or not largely depended on his trust in Gu Jiao.

This is also one of the reasons why Yuan Tang dares to confess to Gu Jiao. What if Gu Jiao knows the truth? It's too far fetched to convict him just by a piece of grain.

Compared with Chen, the emperor was more willing to believe that empress dowager Zhuang was behind the scenes.

The emperor said in a cold voice, "do you think that if you plant a proton in the state of Chen, you will be able to exonerate your good aunt?"

"Your Majesty wants to make relatives hurt enemies quickly, so let's take it for granted." Gu Jiao said, turned and went out.

The emperor was very angry.

Day by day, he thought she was going to the hospital, but it turned out that she was going to find evidence for the poisonous woman to get rid of the crime!

That poisonous woman is so good, one or two, all for her!

Princess Jing, Ning'an and little miracle doctor are all poisoned by that poisonous woman!

They will be blinded by her, but he won't!

"I will not!"

At night, when Duke Wei regained consciousness, the first thing he did was to drag his seriously injured body to visit the emperor and plead with the Emperor: "the old slave's poor escort... Please punish him..."

The emperor looked at Wei Gonggong with bandages on his hands and neck. He couldn't bear to say, "you're not a guard. What do you want to protect? Get up. "

"I dare not."

"I order you to get up!"

"... yes!"

Duke Wei stood up tremblingly.

The emperor asked him to sit down and answer.

Duke Wei said: "Your Majesty, don't be a slave."

The emperor sighed.

Why is it so lonely?

"Your Majesty." Duke Wei, "the slave just met Miss Gu in the yard..."

The emperor's eyes were cold: "are you here to speak for the Empress Dowager?"

Duke Wei said quickly: "how can I speak for the Empress Dowager? I was just thinking that I was lying in a pool of blood and was about to die. Miss Gu was alone. I totally forgot that she was just a woman. I didn't let her run away, but asked her to save your majesty. What kind of mood did she go without hesitation? Knowing how dangerous the front is, and knowing that your majesty is at odds with the Empress Dowager.... "

Gu Jiao rescued the emperor without mentioning the details. The emperor thought that she ran into him by chance, but he didn't know that she had made a special trip to find him.

The emperor's mood suddenly became complicated, and there was something bad in his heart.

Duke Wei looked at the emperor with tears twinkling, and said: "Your Majesty, you can not believe the empress dowager, but you also don't believe the little miracle doctor?"

The emperor was silent.

The next day, Yuantang was healing in his house. Several guards from Dali temple and Honglu temple came to his residence.

The official of Dali temple said: "when your Majesty was assassinated, Dali Temple caught an assassin. The assassin turned out to be the person beside the sixth prince. We also found the sixth Prince's personal belongings at the scene. Please follow us to Dali temple!"

Yuan Tang frowned.

He did not expect that Gu Jiao really had the ability to let the emperor believe.

Naturally, the witness was used by the emperor to plant Yuantang. After all, Yuantang could not hold only one ear. Yuantang could say that his ear was lost or stolen.

But suddenly there was a witness, which was very painful.

And the witness is a guard under Yuan Tang.

Not a bodyguard, just a third-class bodyguard.

Yuan Tang's face became very ugly: "he bought the people around his highness. Oh, his highness really underestimated the royal family of Zhao state."

When to buy, Yuan Tang has no way to verify, fortunately the other side is only a third class guard, usually see his chance is not much, also unlikely to contact with his secret.

But no matter what, being bitten by this man, the situation becomes a bit tricky.

The man in grey said: "I'll kill him! Let them die without proof

Yuan Tang said coldly, "it's no use. He has already confessed and signed on the confession. If he died, the evidence of crime is also established."

Of course, Yuantang can't be captured obediently, but it's impossible for him not to give Zhao an explanation.

Finally, Yuan Tang reluctantly abandoned the car to protect the commander, handed over a confidant of his staff.

The staff took all the charges on themselves, saying that it was their own personal behavior and had nothing to do with Yuan Tang.

When he was in the state of Chen, he was a member of his family. He was resourceful and loyal to him. He gave advice to him many times and helped him out of danger.

When handing over the person, Yuan Tang's heart is dripping blood!

He wants to hand over a top bag of bodyguards, but Zhaoguo won't buy it!

It's not that he's afraid of death, but that he can't die for the time being!

……

The news of the emperor's assassination caused an uproar in the capital, and the court also had a little turbulence. However, the emperor had nothing to do with it, so he became a shake off shopkeeper in the clear water Hutong.

Of course, he did not say that he lived in Bishui Hutong, but announced that he was in the palace.

Although the misunderstanding of the assassination was solved, the relationship between the emperor and Empress Dowager Zhuang was essentially a piece of ice.

The emperor was still unhappy with empress dowager Zhuang.

Empress Dowager Zhuang still does not bird the emperor.

Empress Dowager Zhuang left after playing cards.

At first, the Empress Dowager Zhuang kept a secret from the emperor when she played cards. Later, when she saw that the emperor was staying here, the Empress Dowager Zhuang was too lazy to keep a secret.

I just want to play cards, love how!

The emperor looked at the back of Empress Dowager Zhuang when she went to play cards. He gritted his teeth and said, "if you don't abide by women's principles, you don't know how to be honest, you violate the palace rules, you don't listen to the instructions of your ancestors, you're not worthy of doing..."

Gu Jiao put a thermometer in the emperor's mouth.

"Hold on, don't talk." Doctor Gu said seriously.

The Emperor

The news of the emperor's assassination made a stir in the capital. Although he didn't disclose his identity to Xiao LIULANG and Gu Jiao's family, the only two people in his family who didn't guess his identity were Xiao Jingkong and Gu Xiaoshun.

Xiaojingkong is preconceived and has long accepted the fact that he is Chu Yu's father, uncle Chu, so it is difficult for the outside world to influence him.

Gu Xiaoshun is pure and simple.

Even Gu Yan guessed the identity of the emperor.

After all, there is no one in the world who has the courage to blow his beard and stare at his aunt.

……

It's too hot these days. Gu Yan had a heat stroke in Qinghe Academy. Then Gu Jiao went to the academy to ask him for leave and let him cultivate at home.

He refused to let him go to school in the past, but now he is really idle and boring.

He sat bored in the shade of the tree in the yard, sighing.

Gu Jiao went to the medical school, Xiao LIULANG went to the Imperial Academy, Gu Xiaoshun and Xiao Jingkong went to school, and he had a playmate.

I really want to go to school

When he was bored, a tall figure came and covered the light above his head. Then, a delicate wooden bow appeared in front of him.

Gu Yan was stunned. He looked at the bow and looked up at the man who was holding it.

"It's you?" Gu Yan turned away.

Gu Changqing went around to him, pulled the bow in his hand and said to him, "do you want to shoot?"

Gu Yan said, "I can't shoot arrows!"

Gu Changqing said softly, "I'll teach you."

In fact, Gu Yan has always had a dream of a great swordsman riding the fastest horse and shooting the farthest arrow. Unfortunately, he has no chance to mount the horse alone, let alone shoot.

He can't even pull the bowstring!

Gu Yan suppressed the palpitation of his heart and said with disgust: "I don't want it!"

Gu Changqing said softly, "Jiaojiao said that your body is much better than before. You should be able to pull the bow. If you don't believe it, try it."

Of course, I can't say that in order to take care of your body, I specially made the lightest bow, which can even open the four-year-old little clearance.

All men want face, even Gu Yan, who is only 15 years old.

Gu Yan quietly glanced at the bow that Gu Changqing had handed him. It was so exquisite that every radian and pattern was based on his aesthetics.

Most importantly, the bow was inlaid with jade.

Just... It's very exciting.

Gu Changqing saw through and did not say through, handed the bow to his hand, went over and set the target: "you try."

Gu Yan pulled the bow reluctantly.

He just tried at random, never really opened it!

He can pull a bow!

Gu Yan couldn't believe it, and then a layer of ecstasy poured into his heart.

Gu Changqing looked at his dumbfounded little appearance, the corners of his lips involuntarily slightly raised.

He also made a special bazooka and ten command arrows, all of which were reduced in weight.

He took the quiver, put it on the stone table beside Gu Yan, and handed him an arrow.

The first time Gu Yan took an arrow, some of them couldn't put it.

"So." Gu Changqing pressed his hand and put the arrow in the right place.

Gu Yan's hands are white and tender, slender and delicate. Gu Changqing's hands are also very slender, with distinct bones. However, they have grown a layer of cocoons because of years of martial arts practice.

He just gently pressed the back of Gu Yan's hand, and a red mark quickly appeared on the back of Gu Yan's hand.

Gu Changqing was a little distressed. He quickly released his hand and said to Gu Yan, "let's have a try."

Gu Yan shot an arrow and missed the target.

"It's OK. It's good that the first arrow can be shot." Gu Changqing gave him another arrow.

As a result, Gu Yan missed the target again.

Gu Yan is discouraged.

"You're not in the right position." Gu Changqing came to Gu Yan's back, took his hands in his two hands, put him in his arms, and took him gently to pull the bow and arrow, "you should pull here, aim your eyes, look at the bull's-eye... Shoot the arrow!"

Both hands release at the same time.

There was only a whew. The arrow left the string and hit the bull's-eye!

Gu Yan: Wow

Gu Changqing looked at him deeply, and his eyes were full of doting: "ah Yan is really powerful."

Gu Yan snorted: "of course I am! With you

The little hair on his head was curling up again.

Gu Changqing couldn't help laughing.

His laughter is not big, like the warm string in the sun, the smile is not exaggerated, the body trembles slightly because of the smile, inexplicably full of infection.

Gu Yan wanted to put on a bad face, but suddenly he couldn't.

He felt that he was too disheartened. He turned his head and said, "do you still teach me archery?"

Gu Changqing tried her best to stop laughing, but she couldn't hold her lips up: "teach, teach!"

He encircled him from behind again and gently grasped his delicate hand. Suddenly, he regretted that his bow was too rough, and it was not in Gu Yan's hand.

All afternoon, Gu Changqing was taking Gu Yan to practice archery.

Although Gu Yan and Gu Jiao are the twins of the same mother, they are so different in the value of force. Gu Changqing taught them all afternoon, but Gu Yan couldn't hit the target with an arrow.

Gu Yan was so angry that he refused to admit that it was his own dish. "It's this bow that's bad," he said! What bow did you make

Gu Changqing said: "well, the bow is not good. I didn't do it well. I'll make a new one for you tomorrow."

Gu Yan turned his face: "hum!"

……

After a few days in a paradise, the emperor's appearance improved a lot, and even the amount of hair seemed to increase.

The cooking skill of the old sacrificial wine was excellent. The emperor felt that he was wronged to let him be the Imperial Palace's imperial chef.

The liveliest time of the day is at night. The yard is full of chickens and dogs, some children are pinching me, the smell of food is wafting from the kitchen, and there is a loud noise of fun and abuse in the alley.

After being emperor for a long time, he sometimes feels numb, but these days his heart is always touched. He is in the middle of it. This is the kingdom of Zhao under his rule, and it is the light of all families that he tries his best to protect.

The emperor decided to go back to the palace. He couldn't let the power of the imperial government fall into the hands of others.

However, the night before returning to the palace, he suddenly fell ill with a high fever.

No one expected such a mistake. Gu Jiao went to the clinic. Xiao LIULANG and Lao Jijiu worked overtime with Guozijian at the Hanlin Academy. Duke Wei himself was still ill and couldn't help.

Gu Changqing went to ask miaozhou hall for a doctor.

Empress Dowager Zhuang has just finished playing the leaf card and is ready to go back to the palace. She hears Yu ya'er sitting at the door crying.

She went over and asked, "what's the matter?"

Yu ya'er cried out of breath: "that, that... Sir... I'm sick... I didn't take good care of... I... i..."

Empress Dowager Zhuang didn't want to care about the emperor's life or death, but the girl was so sad that she frowned and went into the room to have a look.

After all, I sold Gu Jiao's medicine. I can't say I'm proficient in medicine, but I can barely meet the emergency.

The emperor was very hot and his consciousness was blurred.

"Go and get the wine." Empress Dowager Zhuang orders Yu ya'er.

"... yes! Yes Yu ya'er goes to the kitchen to get a jar of flower carvings.

No one drinks at home. It's from the neighborhood.

Empress Dowager Zhuang dipped some wine in cotton cloth and wiped the emperor's armpit and forehead.

She saw that Jiaojiao had burned xiaojingkong so much, but Jiaojiao didn't use strong liquor, but the fine liquor in her medicine box.

Jiaojiao calls it alcohol.

This method seems to have some effect. About two quarters of an hour later, the emperor's fever gradually subsided.

But after a while, it recurred again, and the burning was more intense than before. No matter how empress dowager Zhuang wiped it, it was no longer effective.

The doctor of the medical school arrived. It was Dr. Lu. He used acupuncture to relieve the emperor's fever with little effect.

He wrote a prescription again and asked Gu Changqing to go to the hospital to get the herbal medicine.

Gu Changqing directly cooked it in the hospital and brought it over.

The emperor refused to drink.

"You step back." Empress Dowager Zhuang said in a light way.

"Yes."

Several people backed out.

Empress Dowager Zhuang looked at the medicine bowl on the table and the emperor who was in a mess. She took a deep breath and closed her eyes. She seemed to have made a very struggling decision.

Then she came to the bed with a look of disgust.

The emperor's high fever was fierce, and he felt uncomfortable all over. In a daze, he seemed to hear someone calling him.

"Hong er..."

Who is hong'er?

Is that him?

Who's calling him?

"Hong'er, it's time to take the medicine."

The voice was gentle and warm, which he never heard when he grew up.

The emperor was really confused. He didn't remember that he had become emperor or that there was a empress dowager Zhuang whom he hated most.

He is the prince of the palace girl. He was born in a humble family and was brought up by his wife.

Jing bin gave birth to a beautiful sister named Ning'an.

He likes his sister as well as his wife.

Is it the voice of Jing Mu Fei?

Is Jing's mother calling him?

Jingmu imperial concubine is the best to him!

"Empress..."

What the Emperor didn't know was that he was thinking about his mother's concubine, but what he finally yelled out was the empress.

He grabbed empress dowager Zhuang's hand and spent the whole night.
