Chapter 1277

"It scared her."

Gu Jiuci was really frightened for the first time in his life.

For several days after that, she tried to avoid Huo Mingche as much as possible. She would definitely not attend any gathering that Huo Mingche attended.Even when going to court in the morning, his subordinates were asked to check Huo Mingche's route in advance and then avoid him.

He spent several days in such a state of confusion, and Emperor Chu was also in a state of confusion these past few days.On this morning, the only eunuch who came to attend the ceremony was to sing "nai".

"Your Majesty has decreed that Prime Minister Gu will be in charge of the overall affairs of the court this morning. Major matters can be passed on to me by Prime Minister Gu. I appreciate this."

As soon as the great eunuch finished speaking, the expressions of all the civil and military officials suddenly changed.

"Let the Prime Minister preside over the morning dynasty? This dynasty has never had such a precedent!"

"Yes, isn't this prime minister's power greater than that of the previous regent?"

"If Your Majesty is in poor health, according to the ancestral system, the prince should be in charge of political affairs..."

Several admonishers headed by Mr. Du immediately started talking, but Prime Minister Gu, who was in the limelight, did not show any smile, but a trace of worry flashed in his eyes.

Gu Jiuci squeezed the jade plate in his hand and looked serious. This was the first time that Emperor Chu did not attend the morning court.In the past, even though she was in poor health, she still had to hold on to discuss matters... She suddenly smelled a conspiracy.

After the court came down, most of the civil and military officials gathered around his father to chat and fawn over him. Gu Jiuci quickly called Emperor Chu's personal eunuch while no one was paying attention.

"Eunuch Zhang, how is your Majesty's health? What do the doctors say?"

Gu Jiuci asked with concern, but unexpectedly, a hint of strangeness flashed across Eunuch Zhang's face.

"Hi! Your Majesty, there's nothing serious. It's just... there is no plowed land, only tired cows."

Eunuch Zhang said in a roundabout way.

"The emperor has already..."

Gu Jiuci raised her eyebrows in surprise. She was already so old, and the princes were all older than her, but they were still so indulgent!

"Which concubine has the emperor been staying with these days?"

Logically speaking, she, a foreign minister, should not pry into these things, but she had helped Eunuch Zhang a lot in the past years, and Emperor Chu had great trust in their father and son, so Eunuch Zhang lowered his voice and whispered in her ear.

"It's not like our newly promoted Concubine Xu, she is very capable. Several princes tried to persuade her, but she was even scolded by the emperor. The slave family kindly reminded Gu Tanhua that the noble saint's grace is so great that you must not touch this. Damn it!"

"Thank you for the tip, father-in-law. I'll remember it."

Gu Jiuci smiled and stuffed a gold leaf into Eunuch Zhang's sleeve, but a bad premonition welled up in his heart.

On the way back home, Gu Jiuci told his father everything he had learned.

"It seems that this Xu Yun'er is very special. If we don't find out her details thoroughly, I'm afraid there will be a lot of trouble in Xiliang."

"Her method is quite clever. She not only won special favor, but also directed the artillery fire of the ministers at me. Aci, your father and I have been quite eye-catching recently, so I can only leave this matter to you."

Gu Xiang said with a deep expression.

"it is good."

As expected, Emperor Chu did not go to court for several days in a row, blaming everything on his father, but he was not a vegetarian when he became prime minister. It didn't take long for everyone to know the real reason why his majesty did not go to court early.

Many remonstrators have begun to write notes to the emperor, and the rain and dew of remonstrance have been soaked.

Even so, the Prime Minister's Mansion has been deserted recently, so Gu Jiuci used this as an excuse to spend the whole day hanging out in Goulanwatou and stayed out all night.

In fact, it was for Tianjilou to seize the time to find out about Makino.

On this day off, Gu Jiuci stretched out and walked out of the oiran's room pretending to be satisfied. Unexpectedly, he met Huo Mingche head-on!

"!!!!!!"

There was a bang in Gu Jiuci's heart. How could he feel guilty that a heartless man was caught in the act? ! ! !
