Chapter 167：

Xiao Heng is going to go to court on the ninth day of the ninth day, and on the eighth day of the day, he has to return to the palace from the Yiheyuan, so they are just a few days from the second day to the eighth day of the day to take a little rest. Naturally, time is not easy to delay.

The second day was the second day of the second day, and I took a carriage out of the palace early in the morning.

When passing through the streets of Yanjing City, Gu Suier lifted the curtain and looked out. In the hazy morning mist outside, there were fragments of firecrackers all over the ground, red and scattered, like red flowers on the ground.

Occasionally I can hear someone who gets up early and starts firing again.

The fireworks are full of flavor.

After leaving the city of Yanjing, the Yihe Garden was reached after a dozen miles of carriages and horses walked eastward.

After the carriage stopped, Gu Suier looked across the curtain, and saw that the sky was already bright at this time, the rising sun shining on this large garden, and the soft brilliance of the sun in winter reflected on the eaves of the glazed glass palace. Light, dazzling and bright. And outside that garden, there are pine and cypresses into a forest, full of greenery.

The principal of Yiheyuan here had already known that the emperor was coming, and had been waiting for a long time. Seeing the arrival of carriages and horses, he quickly opened the door to welcome them in.

Gu Suier's carriage and horses drove along the golden glazed tiles into the Jardine Garden, but the palace here is made of gray-white marble, reflecting the vermillion-black eaves, the kind of pale gray and rich colors. The vermilion is set against the backdrop, and it does not have a fresh flavor. Compared with the common palaces in the palace, it looks like an ingenious girl with Yili.

The carriage drove all the way, and the conservatory was visible, and the conservatory was covered with gauze curtains, which moved with the wind, whirling and blurring, and in the conservatory, thick shades of flowers and trees were faintly visible.

When Awan saw it, she was the first to be excited, and pointed to that side and said, "Mother, there are flowers, there are flowers!"

In this big winter, it is rare to see a green color, not to mention that there are flowers and trees, no wonder Awan is so excited.

Gu Suier hugged Awan and smiled: "Don't worry, we will stay here for a few days, so Awan can see it."

Awan could hear it, and then she no longer had enough to look at.

After entering the sleeping hall, the steward here knew that the empress was coming, and they had been carefully arranged. Although they were not as gorgeous as the palace, they were fresh and chic. They were all liked.

After the family rested, they went to dinner, and the meals were also specially prepared.

Not far from the mountains, we deliberately used mountain game to make the fresh and tender roe deer meat, as well as the roasted mountain pheasant, of course, besides this, there are some common ones, such as bear paw carp.

Gu Suier was also a little hungry after the bumps along the way, so she tasted everything.

Ah Chen and A Wan ate happily and applauded.

Seeing this, Gu Suier ordered to go down, pick what they like to eat, and do it tomorrow, and the bottom manager will naturally respond quickly.

The first emperor hadn't come here two years ago because of his body. This Yihe Garden was a bit deserted. Now that the new emperor came to the throne, he actually came. Naturally, he took great pains and thought about how to make the emperor happy here.

So that Gu Suier ordered a word, they all had to hollow out their minds, since the crown prince and the little princess liked this, wouldn't they also like that one?

Gu Suier didn't know that the people under her were so tremblingly thinking to please herself, so she just gave the order so casually, and didn't think much. After resting for a while, I told Xiao Heng to take a look at the greenhouse, and Awan looked like a flower.

Xiao Heng knew what his daughter was thinking long ago, and he has always loved this daughter, so naturally there is no objection to it.

"But it's too cold over there, let the manager prepare first."

"Well, that's okay."

So the steward went to prepare.

When they were ready, Xiao Heng took the three of them over, and as soon as they passed, Gu Suier was slightly surprised.

The outside of the conservatory here was originally covered with a drape. The whirling blur looked really good, but now it was covered with a thick curtain and top-quality carpet.

Gu Suier said helplessly: "It's too extravagant. These are not cheap. Let's just look at the flowers for a while. We can't be so wasteful!"

Xiao Heng said quietly: "It's nothing, just once a year, and this is all prepared beforehand."

Xiao Heng had seen the first emperor travel before, and the luxuriousness of the furnishings was not comparable to that of a heating house, but he didn't want to say it so as not to make Gu Suier feel bad.

Gu Suier thinks about it, too: "Looking at this, it was in the past two years, but there is no chance to use it."

Xiao Heng nodded: "It is true."

The group of people walked to the flower viewing platform in the greenhouse. It was called the flower viewing platform. In fact, it was like a small palace. Seats, house servants and all kinds of utensils were all available.

Sitting on the low mahogany couch, you can look away from the flowers and trees in the distance. The flowers are full of lush greenery, making people feel relaxed and happy. In fact, this view is nothing in summer, but it's only winter. It's cold outside. In such a comparison, it is really a world of two people inside and outside, and only the emperor can enjoy this kind of scenery.

At this time, tea and cakes also came up. In fact, the whole family was full, but seeing that some of the mountain dry goods were still fresh, just peel and eat a few at will.

Gu Suier personally peeled it and fed it to Awan, Xiao Heng saw this, so he peeled it and put it on the plate in front of Gu Suier for her to enjoy.

The Ah Chen next to him peeled it by himself and occasionally teased Ah Wan with the peeled chestnuts.

Just when the family was enjoying themselves, I saw a figure among the flowers over there, who looked like a woman, wearing a brocade goose yellow dress, wrapped in that graceful figure, with her black hair draped over her shoulders, looking quite moving.

When Gu Suier looked over, she saw the woman holding a pair of scissors in her hand, pruning branches and leaves.

She was a little wondering, isn't this pruning of branches and leaves usually a family member? Why is it that a woman of such a young age is allowed to do it now, but she just thought about it, and didn't care.

Ah Chen also saw the woman. He peeled off a hazelnut and threw it neatly into his mouth. He raised his eyebrows and looked at the woman in the distance, and asked, "Who is that and why are you here to disturb me waiting for the flowers?"

Seeing this, the steward next to him looked terrified: "That's the gardener in the flower room here, trimming the branches and leaves for the flowers and trees in the greenhouse, not to disturb the nobles to enjoy the flowers."

Ah Chen looked like a dude, and said with disdain: "Pruning the branches and leaves, when is it impossible to prune? Why do you prefer to prune when we are there? I think it’s just uneasy and kind, come here, grab me, ruthlessly Fight!"

When the steward heard this, he knelt down with a puff: "The prince calms down, and the old slave will let her go!"

The people around were naturally frightened and knelt down together.

When the woman saw the movement here, her face turned pale, and she knelt in the flower room with tears on her face: "The slave does not know anything, and disturbed the emperor. Please forgive the emperor! Please spare the life of the emperor!"

It's okay for her not to speak. When she speaks, the voice is delicate, as if she can pinch out water, and the tone of her opening is extremely pitiful, sad and moving.

Originally, Gu Suier thought that Ah Chen didn't know what was going on, and she actually bullied the weak, but when the woman spoke, Gu Suier felt that something was wrong.

Let's not say that it was the crown prince Ah Chen who was in the trouble. As a result, the woman asked Xiao Heng as the emperor when she opened her mouth. If a physically strong woman comes to trim the branches and leaves, Gu Suier still believes it, but now... such a woman who talks so sweetly as if it can turn into water, it is simply powerless to bind a chicken, how does it look like It looks like you can trim flowering branches!

She looked at the woman's dress up and her pitiful appearance, and suddenly she understood.

He raised his head and glanced at his own man, only to see that he was still lowering his head and peeling chestnuts for himself with his long and distinct fingers.

She couldn't help being funny, this woman came for Xiao Heng, right?

I don't know if I was stupid, or if I was too confident about my beauty, I used this method.

At this time, the woman suddenly raised her face and cried: "The emperor, the slave is just trimming the branches and leaves, please let the emperor spare the slave."

She is so pitiful with rain, and she looks really good. She dare not say that she is all over the country, she can be regarded as stunning.

Gu Suier glanced at Xiao Heng next to him again, and saw that Xiao Heng was still peeling chestnuts intently, not looking at the woman at all.

She really thought it was funny, so she whispered: "You are trimming the branches and leaves, and it's nothing, go on."

After taking a pitiful look at Gu Suier, the woman looked at Xiao Heng again unwillingly. Seeing that Xiao Heng didn’t want to look at her, she lowered her head and said weakly, “Thank you, the emperor, the queen and the prince are kind. The slave retires."

After the woman went down, the family continued to admire flowers and eat dry goods, and then drank the scented tea boiled with mountain stream water. As for the woman just now, it seemed that nothing happened.

After midday, Xiao Heng took Achen Awan out to ride a horse. Gu Suier did not go, and stayed alone in the room to rest.

She called over to Mother An and said indifferently: "What the **** is going on with that woman?"

The manager of a Jardine Garden in a small area naturally didn't have the guts to do this kind of action. As for the woman, she was just a weak woman. If no one arranged, she would not have the guts to do such a thing.

So Gu Suier felt that there must be instructions behind this matter.

"Return to the empress," Mother An said mysteriously, "I have already cross-examined. This woman should be from the empress empress' side, come here to wait."

"Sure enough it is her."

Gu Suier had already had a hunch.

Now that she has just become the queen, everyone knows that she is favored, and who would dare to play such careful thinking under her nose.

That is, the empress dowager, always thinking of stuffing a woman for the emperor, always thinking of making herself uncomfortable.

"Do you want to drive out that lowly woman?" Madam An mentioned the woman with a look of disdain: "Keeping it is a curse."

Gu Suier shook her head: "No."

Mother An doesn’t understand: "Why?"

Gu Suier said: "I know what the emperor’s character is. I don’t know how to think about such a woman. Let her go. When she tries to hook up with the emperor, he will anger the emperor. After a heavy punishment, the empress dowager can understand that the emperor is not going to favor other women easily, so let's die!

Mother An was very worried when she listened; "Niang, you can’t say that! Although the emperor spoils you, but since ancient times, who is not from the Sixth Courtyard, the emperor treats you well, so the empress’s position is naturally seated. Steady, but after coming out, I will be lucky to have a maidservant, that is also there! Be afraid of it! If the maid becomes pregnant, then it will be very troublesome. The maid still can't be careless. Be careful!"
