Chapter 383

He was not born when the late emperor died, but he once followed the emperor to visit Princess Jing in the temple.

At that time, he was still young and didn't know what he saw by accident. He didn't realize that it was an imperial edict until later, and it looked like the imperial edict left by the former Emperor from the content.

He didn't mention it to anyone.

When I was a child, I didn't mention it because I didn't understand it. When I grew up, I didn't mention it because I thought it was too serious and I was afraid of bringing disaster to the marquis.

Not long after he got the imperial edict, he was poisoned near Renshou palace.

He didn't put the two things together. Even when he was older, he didn't feel that there was any relationship between them.

As for why we don't doubt the intention of Princess Jing to steal the imperial edict, because if it was him, he would do the same.

But he thought that there should be a knot in his heart, otherwise, Gu Jiao would not be prevented from going to the nunnery outside the palace to treat Princess Jing.

Perhaps, Princess Jing had already found out that he had seen the imperial edict, so she would poison him.

Not only to plant the empress dowager, but also to kill people.

After he was lucky enough to get his life back, Xuanping Marquis and Princess Xinyang strengthened their protection for him, and Princess Jing was unable to start again until he died——

"Well, why do you stop talking all of a sudden? Isn't it scared? " Gu Chengfeng is good at shaking in front of his eyes, "this just where with where?"

Xiao LIULANG came back and said, "no, I'm just thinking about what you just said."

That day, he went to the next door to find the teacher. He heard that the teacher and Gu Changqing mentioned Princess Xinyang. The teacher said that there was something to ask Princess Xinyang, but he didn't hear much about it. He didn't expect that it would be about the imperial edict.

He thought he was asking Princess Jing.

Gu Chengfeng didn't know that he was thinking about the imperial edict, but he was shocked by the fact that imperial concubine Jing had given the emperor medicine: "until she was cruel, but I didn't expect that she could do it to her majesty, could she? Tiger poison doesn't eat son, she... "

Gu Chengfeng suddenly found that he couldn't find a word to describe the old witch. He turned his lips and snorted: "it's hard to be the Empress Dowager these years. Your majesty and she didn't have to go to this step... But ah, it's said that your Majesty's medicine is about to expire, so the old witch went to find someone to buy medicine. I don't know if she has given her majesty any medicine recently... "

Gu Jiao is located at the top of the pyramid of information, Gu Chengfeng can be ranked second. At present, it is not known that Princess Jing has given the emperor the wrong medicine.

But maybe soon he won't even be second.

Xiao LIULANG paused and said, "wait a minute. I'll write back to Jiao Jiao."

Gu Chengfeng's face turned black.

I brought you something to eat, and you have to write back to her!

One day he died, he must have been soured to death by these two people!

Xiao LIULANG wrote a note to Gu Chengfeng, folded it and put it into the purse Gu Jiao gave him.

He didn't do any secret keeping measures. First, he trusted Gu Jiao's vision. Gu Jiao could let Gu Chengfeng come over, which means Gu Chengfeng is his own person; Second, Gu Chengfeng can go freely under the eyelids of Gongyuan and longyingwei. It's impossible for him to have some skills. No matter how tightly he sealed it, Gu Chengfeng could see it.

"All right, I'll take another trip. I was going to send you food and go back to Hou's house." Gu Chengfeng takes the purse and mentions the food. His eyes sweep the dim sum on the table. The girl is not good-looking, but the dim sum is exquisite.

"Thank you very much." Xiao LIULANG sincerely expressed his thanks.

"You sincerely thank me for my words and give me a piece of your dessert." Gu Chengfeng said.

"No Xiao LIULANG refused mercilessly.

Gu Chengfeng

Gu Chengfeng uses his lightness skills to get out of the Gongyuan. Because of the fire in his heart, he goes to Bishui Hutong and doesn't even show his body. He directly throws the purse Xiao LIULANG asked him to bring back on Gu Jiao's windowsill.

Gu Jiao doesn't have to guess. She knows it's Gu Chengfeng.

Gu Jiao throws the medicine bottle into the air.

Sure enough, Gu Chengfeng catches the hair growth agent with a sharp spin.

He fell in front of Gu Jiao's window and said angrily, "just throw it! I'm not afraid to give it to the wrong person! Hum

After that, he carried Gu Chengfeng's medicine into the endless night.

Gu Jiao took out the note in her purse - the imperial edict is known. Don't act rashly until I come back.

When she saw the first two sentences, Gu Jiao's heart didn't have any waves. However, when she read the last sentence, her lips curved slightly.

"Wait for me to come back..." Gu Jiao read the last four words, elbowed on the windowsill and looked at the distance.

Why are you so happy?

Gu Jiaoqiao's lips can't be pressed down.

"Hello

Gu Chengfeng suddenly came back, hanging a gold hook upside down from the beam, his head hanging out of Gu Jiao's window, almost face to face with Gu Jiao.

The difference is that Gu Jiao's face is straight, his face is upside down.

Gu Jiao looks at the uninvited guest who destroys the atmosphere: "why?"

Gu Chengfeng said, "I forgot to tell you something. Your husband was poisoned in the Gongyuan."

Gu Jiao's look cooled down.

"Fortunately, I went early, just in time..."

Gu Chengfeng words did not finish, Gu Jiao has one hand to support the windowsill jumped out.

Gu Chengfeng was stunned: "er... What, I haven't said the second half of the sentence."

With Gu Jiao's skill now, it's not a big problem to sneak into Gongyuan. Although Gongyuan is big, its structure is simple. Invigilators live in Jingyi Pavilion all the time.

Xiao LIULANG had just finished washing and was only wearing a thin inner garment. He put out the oil lamp on the table to go to sleep, but someone knocked on the door gently.

"Who is it?" Xiao LIULANG came to the door, took off the bolt and gently opened the door.

Outside the door is not any colleague, but a petite figure in black, wearing a gaudy mask.

A pair of eyes under the mask, like the light of a Tianhe River, have been bright to the haze of his heart.

He was staring at her, and at herself in her eyes, forgetting to respond.

"You two, look over there!"

The voice of the bodyguard sounded not far away.

Xiao LIULANG quickly reaches out his hand and drags people in. He bumps them into his arms. He holds her in one hand and closes the door quickly in the other.

Almost as soon as he put the bolt on the door, the guard outside also arrived.

"You two, go and have a look over there. You two look in this yard. Follow me!"

"Yes

Gu Jiao is hugged tightly by Xiao LIULANG. She doesn't move. She blinks her big eyes and looks at him.

Xiao LIULANG put up his index finger and put it on his lip.

Gu Jiao understands.

Don't talk, she knows!

"Ah Chou"

But I can't help sneezing!

The masks are all crooked!

"What's going on?"

A bodyguard came to Xiao LIULANG's house.

"It's me." Xiao LIULANG said as usual.

"Is Mr. Xiao still up so late?" The guard asked outside the door.

Xiao LIULANG held Gu Jiao and did not dare to move: "I fell asleep, but I woke you up again."

"Sorry." The guard outside arched his hand. "It's our brother who found a faint guard near the kitchen. It seems that he has fainted for a long time. I don't know if there are any thieves sneaking in. We are being ordered to search the Gongyuan. Please bear with Mr. Xiao."

Gu Jiao took off the mask and was held tightly by him. She couldn't get rid of it. She simply buried her little head in his arms.

Xiao LIULANG's heart moved and his breath became heavy. He calmed down and said, "I haven't heard anything here. You should go to your adults to have a look."

"Yes." The bodyguard was there.

"Brother, I didn't find it here."

"Not over there, either."

"Go

The bodyguards left the Jingyi Pavilion one after another. Xiao LIULANG listened to their footsteps carefully and made sure that the last bodyguard had gone away, and it became quiet again.

However, Xiao LIULANG and Gu Jiao did not move.

There was no lamp in the room, only the thin moonlight projected from the window paper, almost no light.

The night was quiet.

He held her in his arms, hearing each other's breath and the sound of his heart beating a drum.

"I didn't knock out that guard. I didn't knock anyone."

Gu Jiao said.

"Well." Xiao LIULANG answered vaguely, and gently released his arm. The night covered the color of his cheek. "How did you come here so late?"

"Gu Chengfeng said someone poisoned you." When Gu Jiao said this, her fingertips had caught his pulse.

"I didn't eat it." Xiao LIULANG said, "the guard who fainted should be the one who sent me dinner."

"The pulse is OK." Gu Jiao asked, "is the food still there?"

Xiao LIULANG came to the table, took out the fire fold and lit the oil lamp: "take it away, I left a little of the scallion which was drugged."

He said and took out a small porcelain vase from the bag.

Gu Jiao poured out the scallion inside and looked at it carefully. Her face sank down: "it's arsenic."

Someone gave her husband arsenic!

Her little fists mean they itch!

Xiao LIULANG looks at her that pair of ferocious small facial expression, one didn't restrain, smile.

He raised his hand, gently rubbed her hair top: "I'm ok, this time I didn't hit, the other party should have guessed that it was revealed, and won't do it again in a short time."

At least not in Gongyuan.

"That's why you came in the middle of the night?"

In his opinion, this is a trivial matter. From the moment he returned to the capital, he had expected that there were many thorns ahead.

"I'll find the killer." Gu Jiao said seriously.

"Good." Xiao LIULANG smile, stroked her head was blown up by the wind of a small hair.

It's strange that he didn't do that before.

They have been in the name of husband and wife, but there is no intersection between them. They are more like guests living under a roof. They have their own fields and do not interfere with each other.

From which event did their boundaries begin to blur? And their plans are starting to involve each other?

Xiao LIULANG bowed his head and gave a smile.

"What are you laughing at?" Gu Jiao asked.

"No Xiao LIULANG shook his head.

I just can't help laughing.

As for what he was laughing at, he seemed to know, and he didn't seem to know.

"By the way, what exactly is written in the imperial edict of Princess Jing?" Gu Jiao skips the question of how you know the content of the edict.

Xiao LIULANG seems to finally understand what he is laughing at. He is happy.

It seems that you never have to worry about her asking embarrassing questions when you are with her. Of course, he doesn't deliberately inquire about things she doesn't want to respond to.

This is not enough to understand after careful, is due to each other's character, is a natural tacit understanding.

Xiao LIULANG said: "that was the imperial edict left by the late emperor before he died. It wrote very important things."

It's almost shocking to say that it's less important.

Gu Jiao asked, "is it related to my aunt?"

Xiao LIULANG nodded: "yes."

I think it's also related to my aunt, otherwise it would not have been pinched by Princess Jing for so many years.

Gu Jiao continued to guess: "is it the emperor who agreed to listen to the government from behind the curtain?"

If the emperor agreed, then my aunt would not have to suffer so much criticism. The fact that Princess Jing held the imperial edict in her hand undoubtedly hindered her Regency.

Xiao LIULANG shook his head: "No."

Gu Jiao changed the direction of speculation: "that is to let my aunt not interfere with the imperial court?"

"Not either." Xiao LIULANG shook his head again.

Gu Jiao said strangely: "it can't really be an imperial edict for my aunt to bury the late emperor?"

Xiao LIULANG was silent.

As soon as Gu Jiao saw him like this, she had an answer in her heart.

The imperial edict given by the late emperor before his death really made his aunt die!

In this way, Gu Jiao was even more puzzled: "but why did Princess Jing keep an imperial edict for her aunt to be buried? Why does she hide the imperial edict when she and her aunt can't get along so quickly? "

Xiao LIULANG's eyes became a little deeper: "because in the imperial edict... The empress concubine who buried the emperor was not only my aunt, but also Princess Jing."
