The reason for this speculation is that Xiao LIULANG told the old sacrificial wine that Princess Xinyang also had a dragon shadow guard in her hand. No matter what the Emperor gave Princess Xinyang the Dragon shadow guard for, at least one thing was explained: the weight of Princess Xinyang in the eyes of the emperor was very important.
In fact, if Xiao LIULANG didn't know that Princess Xinyang had a dragon shadow guard, I'm afraid he would not have known that the father and daughter had such a deep relationship.
Princess Xinyang's biological mother is Princess Yu. Princess Yu died when she was 13 years old. At that time, Princess Xinyang was old, and there was no such thing as who should take care of her.
The emperor did not take special care of her because she lost her parents. The emperor treated her the same as many princesses in the palace
The old man shook his head.
It seems that there are many things he doesn't know.
Gu Changqing and Princess Xinyang are not of the same generation. They don't know much about the situation at that time, so they don't have the same feeling as the old sacrificial wine.
He was only the emperor, and he always loved her very much, but he didn't know it.
Considering the current situation, he said: "Princess Xinyang is not in the capital, but it's not too far away. We'll be there in a few days. "
"She may not meet you." Said the old man.
Gu Changqing was silent.
He understood that the old sacrifice wine was true.
Since the young Marquis died in the fire of the Imperial College, Princess Xinyang was too sad to help herself, and finally left the capital with her confidants.
She refused to see anyone associated with the capital.
It's understandable to think that the loss of her son is too hard for her. She doesn't want to be hurt by the scene, and she doesn't want to contact anyone who may make her recall the past of Beijing.
"You have to try." Gu Changqing said.
On the surface, the most simple and intuitive way is to steal back the imperial edict, but once the Dragon shadow guard is in the hands of Princess Jing, they can't get it.
Maybe even if they know the content of the imperial edict, they still can't get it. But as the saying goes, knowing yourself and your enemy, they can win every battle. As long as they know the content of the imperial edict, they can understand what the bottom card of Princess Jing is.
Gu Changqing said: "Princess Xinyang is near Fengdu mountain. It happens that I'm going there recently. I'm going to visit Princess Xinyang by the way."
"What are you doing in Fengdu mountain?" The old man gave a word of concern.
Gu Changqing said, "my grandfather asked me to go."
Maybe it's about the secret army. My grandfather didn't say much about it.
Strange to say, last time my grandfather gave them all the tokens as if he had told them what happened, but the next day he took them all back.
The old man was in a low mood and said, "if you go to Fengdu mountain, go and offer incense to an old friend for me."
"Good." Gu Changqing didn't ask who his old friend was or what it was to do with the old sacrifice wine. He just asked for the address of the cemetery, and then he got up and left.
When he came to the door, he ran into Xiao LIULANG by accident.
I don't know how long Xiao LIULANG has been here and how much he has heard. However, he is not an outsider after all. There is no need to hide it from him.
Gu Changqing nodded to say hello.
Xiao LIULANG also nodded back.
Gu Changqing out of the yard, the old wine also came out, he looked at the moonlight thin lonely Xiao LIULANG, opened his mouth, suddenly did not know how to speak.
After a long time, he sighed with shame: "I'm sorry, I should have told you something. I shouldn't have involved Princess Xinyang in this way."
Having said that, he would still tell Gu Changqing that he hoped Gu Changqing could ask Princess Xinyang for an answer even if Xiao LIULANG stopped him.
It's not only for the sake of overthrowing Princess Jing, but also for Xiao LIULANG's safety.
Xiao LIULANG is already in the Bureau. If imperial concubine Jing doesn't get rid of the danger for a day, he can't get rid of it.
"But..."
"Teacher, it's getting late. It's time for you to rest."
The voice of Lao Jijiu and Xiao LIULANG sounded almost at the same time. It almost means that Lao Jijiu really spoke first, but after two words, Xiao LIULANG connected the words.
Seamless kind, people do not feel that he is deliberately interrupted or really accidental.
After a pause, the old man nodded: "OK, I'm almost finished here. You can also have a rest. It's hard to go to the countryside today. Go to bed early. "
Originally, according to the Convention and the relationship between the two, the old sacrificial ceremony would care about what he did when he went to the countryside. After all, it was these "achievements" that played a real role in the promotion of the imperial officials.
But when it comes to chatting, everyone knows it's time for the topic to end.
Xiao LIULANG went back to the next room.
Liu Quan came from the corridor: "master."
"Alas." The old man sighed, "why is he so stubborn?"
Liu Quan already knew Xiao LIULANG's identity, but he still didn't understand the old wine offering saying: "why did you say that?"
The old man waved his hand: "forget it, it's nothing."
……
After returning to his house, Xiao LIULANG plunges into his study. He closes the door behind him. Without holding the lamp, he stands alone in the boundless night.
He understood what the teacher was asking.
——Why don't you tell Princess Xinyang that you are back?
It's excusable not to tell Xuanping marquis. After all, the relationship between father and son is not intimate. After all, there are some strange repulsions and frictions between men. It's not surprising that a rebellious young man and a dissolute father become enemies.
But what about Princess Xinyang?
What's wrong with the mother who put you on the top of her heart? innocent? Why!
Once upon a time, I thought that you didn't go to her because you were worried that your business would involve her too much.
But she has dragon shadow guard in her hand. Who can hurt her?
Why, ah Heng, why!
Gu Jiao went to the kitchen to burn some hot water and had a snack. She planned to see if all the men at home had come back.
When she passed by the study, the door was closed, and there was no candle light. She didn't care.
But without two steps, she came back.
It's an intuition.
Instead of knocking on the door as usual, she gently pushed the door open and went in.
The faint candle light in the corridor made her see the road in front of her desk, which seemed to be shrouded in great sadness.
She closed the door with her backhand, and her figure was engulfed by the darkness again.
But she knew where he was and she could hear his breath.
She walked slowly and stopped behind him.
Xiao LIULANG didn't turn around or speak.
She didn't speak.
——He couldn't have been unaware that someone had come in. He didn't respond. He didn't want to talk.
Gu Jiao just can't understand too many complex emotions, doesn't mean she can't feel others' emotions.
Gu Jiao's mind flashed over when he was sad because his aunt had forgotten him, he held himself in his arms and gently appeased.
She stood on tiptoe and gesticulated behind him.
It's a pity that she is not tall enough to hold people in her arms like he did and let her head bury in her chest.
After thinking about it, she stepped forward, put out her little arm, and gently hugged him from behind.
Is that ok?
Can you feel less pain?
Gu Jiao was very light at first, but when she put her cheek behind his slightly stiff spine, she didn't know if it was close to his heart, and she felt more sad.
She tightened her arm.
In the dark, Xiao LIULANG held back the pain of his throat, raised his hand and covered her hand.
……
This time is no different from any other time in the past. Gu Jiao comforted him thoughtfully, but didn't question him. Gu Jiao obviously felt that after he calmed down a little, when he left, he opened his mouth and seemed to have something to say to himself.
Gu Jiao stopped for a second.
If he wants to explain, he can stop her. If he still decides not to explain, they won't be too embarrassed.
He didn't explain in the end.
The next day, Gu Jiao got up early and helped mother Fang make breakfast for her family.
When Xiao LIULANG came out of Westinghouse, Gu Jiao was arranging dishes and chopsticks. She bent her lips at him: "good morning."
It seems that nothing happened. It's the same as usual.
Xiao LIULANG nodded and said, "good morning."
Soon Xiao Jingkong got up. He went to the backyard to practice. After a while, Gu Xiaoshun and Gu Yan got up. A busy morning began.
After breakfast, Xiao LIULANG went to the Hanlin Academy. Xiao Jingkong followed the old sacrificial wine to the Imperial Academy. As for Gu Yan and Gu Xiaoshun, they naturally went to Qinghe Academy.
Now there are two carriages at home. Gu Yan and Gu Xiaoshun use the same carriage. Xiao LIULANG and Liu Quan get on Liu Quan's carriage. Liu Quan first sends an old man and a young man to the Imperial Academy, and finally sends Xiao LIULANG to the Imperial Academy.
Gu Jiao went to the hospital, she received a reply from Xue Ningxiang.
It has been half a year since Xue Ningxiang wrote to her last time, but after reading the contents of the letter, Gu Jiao can understand why Xue Ningxiang came back so late.
Xue's mother-in-law died of illness on Tuesday, the third day after Zhuang came home.
Gu Jiao once showed Xue Ningxiang '.
She was in her sleep and walked peacefully.
Zhao has the Dingyou system. The elders of the family have to stay at home to keep filial piety for the dead for at least one and a half to three years. Tuizhuang is just a small soldier, not in the ranks of Dingyou.
But mother's funeral is still better to do. On Tuesday Zhuang asked his companion for leave, and he stayed in the village to bury his mother.
This happened in spring. Now that summer is almost over, Chuang is supposed to come back on Tuesday. But another big event happened, that is, Dean li of Tianxiang academy came to propose marriage to Xue Ningxiang.
Seeing this, Gu Jiao was really surprised.
Xue Ningxiang didn't talk about everything with her, but she didn't mention the matter between Dean Li and herself.
Of course, there is an original explanation on this letter.
It turned out that when she and Xiao LIULANG were still in the countryside, Premier Li had already met Xue Ningxiang several times and was chased by Gouwa and called Dad.
Gouwa is a babbling child. He doesn't know much about father. Seeing other children calling Father to adult men, he probably thinks that all these men are dads.
This is Gu Jiao's own understanding.
Xue Ningxiang didn't give a specific explanation. She only said that Gouwa was bumped into by old lady Li. Old lady Li was old, and her brain was not clear. She took Gouwa as her own little grandson.
Dean Li is a good person. He has a friendship with Xiao LIULANG's family and helps Xue Ningxiang to get rid of the encirclement. Xue Ningxiang can't bear the old man's grief, so she is mistaken.
Who knows, after that time, it got out of hand. Old lady Li asked for her grandson every once in a while and took Xue Ningxiang as her daughter-in-law
Premier Li asked Xue Ningxiang not to misunderstand. Xue didn't misunderstand. He didn't know he would come to ask for marriage
Gu Jiao knew the trouble was coming when she saw it.
Sure enough, the back of the letter said that Zhuang had a conflict with Premier Li on Tuesday, and Zhuang had a fight with Premier Li on Tuesday.
On Tuesday, Zhuang was a soldier, and President Li was a scholar. It can be imagined who suffered the most in this fight.
Zhou Erzhuang's Thoughts on Xue Ningxiang have been known by Gu Jiao for a long time. It's just that President Li's thoughts are not known until today because she lacks the chance to discover them.
It's not difficult to explain why Xue Ningxiang's handwriting has made such great progress and his literary talent has also improved by leaps and bounds that he doesn't need others to write for him.
Now Xue Ningxiang has a headache. She says she wants to shave her head and be an aunt, but she doesn't want to give up Gouwa.
Gu Jiao can vaguely understand Xue Ningxiang's troubles. In this era, women's tolerance is very low. Xue Ningxiang is a widow, and her second marriage has been criticized. What's more, what she wants to marry is either Dean Li, who is not in charge of the family, or Zhuang, who is against the ethical code.
It's a dead move.
She would not want to become a monk unless she could bear the rumors and obviously could not.
At the end of the letter, he said that the medicinal mountain had been reclaimed, and the medicinal materials designated by Gu Jiao had been planted by the villagers under the leadership of Luo Lizheng.
Gu Jiao's fingertips tapped on the table and took the letter to the palace.
