The General is Pregnant: His Majesty Abstinence and Sexual Devotion Every Night

Chapter 241 Yu Du Hu

Qi Yunjin: ...

Let her think so for now.

Seeing that the emperor had no intention of answering, Gu Junqing lowered his eyes and looked at the chessboard.

The emperor chose the white piece, so the black piece was naturally Gu Junqing.

She put down a piece and waited for the emperor to make the next move. Seeing that she was concentrating on the chessboard, Qi Yunjin looked at Gu Junqing who was concentrating on the chessboard and sighed silently in her heart, thinking, just take it slow. Then she put down a piece.

After playing chess for about half an hour, Qi Yunjin was the winner. Gu Junqing put down the black piece in his hand, a faint smile appeared on his expressionless face, and he subconsciously praised: "Your Majesty is still more powerful. I am ashamed to be inferior to you."

Qi Yunjin listened to Gu Junqing's praise, and his originally tense jaw relaxed, and a faint smile appeared in his eyes. But when he thought of something, his face darkened, with a little depression, but his tone was calm. He asked her:

"It is said that General Gu seems to have been running around the streets of Beijing recently. General Gu is so interested in him. Is there anything interesting there?"

When Gu Junqing heard this, her heart skipped a beat. For some reason, she always felt that the emperor was looking at her as if he wanted to eat her.

She no longer looked into Qi Yunjin's eyes, but lowered her head and looked at the chessboard on the table that had not been put away yet. After thinking for a moment, she answered truthfully:

"I can't say it's interesting, I can only say it's a little interesting, just like the unique and novel way of using incense that has just become popular in Beijing. At least now I can make one or two jars."

"Oh? In that case, General Gu, why don't you make a few cans for me?"

Qi Yunjin asked for it naturally. Gu Junqing was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect that the emperor was also interested in incense and wanted to make a few jars for him himself.

How could Gu Junqing dare not respond? He nodded silently to show that he understood.

I thought the emperor had given his orders and would not say anything else and asked me to leave.

But Gu Junqing couldn't come here in vain, so he planned to mention Xue Ben in a calm manner to leave a good impression on the emperor and prepare for the future.

However, the emperor asked who the owner of Xue’s incense shop was before her.

Gu Junqing raised her lips, and the speech she had prepared just now was no longer necessary. She had a look of joy on her face. Seeing that the emperor had asked, she naturally told him what Xue Ben was like in her eyes. Listening to the smile on the face of the person in front of him about Xue Ben and the relaxed manner in which he spoke, Qi Yunjin's heart sank, and he felt something was wrong.

"Does General Gu like this man named Xue Ben?"

Gu Junqing didn't hear anything wrong with Qi Yunjin's tone. He just looked up at the emperor and seemed to be thinking. Then Qi Yunjin heard her affirmative tone: "I really like it."

"..."

Qi Yunjin didn't know what to say, with a dumb and gloomy look on his face. What's more, Gu Junqing hesitated in his heart and thought, could it be that the emperor is angry? But he didn't say anything wrong just now. It's true that the emperor's mind is hard to predict.

"What do you like about him?"

Qi Yunjin tried his best to keep calm and asked.

Gu Junqing had a strange look in his eyes, thinking that he had just mentioned Xue Ben's advantages such as good talent and learning, so why did he have to say it again.

But since the emperor wants to hear it, why not say it again?

She said it again without any reservations. Seeing her calm expression and no other admiration-like emotions, Qi Yunjin couldn't help but react and thought, I like a man just for myself, but Gu Junqing has had women before, how could he like a man? He was really too paranoid.

Qi Yunjin just breathed a sigh of relief, but then he remembered that Gu Junqing had a woman. He felt so angry that he felt extremely uncomfortable.

Noticing that Gu Junqing was looking at him with an increasingly strange expression, Qi Yunjin's forehead twitched slightly, and he didn't know what to say for a moment.

"Your Majesty, what do you think?"

Gu Junqing carefully chose his words, thinking that there should be no problem with this sentence.

However, as soon as she raised her eyes to look at the emperor's face, she saw Qi Yunjin's face suddenly darken. Gu Junqing swallowed her saliva and wondered if she should not speak. She felt that everything she said from the beginning to now was wrong. Could it be that she had offended the emperor at some point?

"Very good opinion. I have noted down everything you said. I will see how this person performs in the exam in a few months."

After Qi Yunjin finished speaking expressionlessly, he stood up from his chair, walked to the place where memorials were reviewed, and picked up a pen.

Gu Junqing sat in his original position blankly for a while, then walked forward and wanted to ask if there was anything he needed help with recently.

As soon as she asked the question, Qi Yunjin, who originally looked a little unhappy, suddenly raised his head, with a gleam in his eyes.

Before he opened his mouth, this person actually asked on his own initiative.

Don’t miss the free opportunity.

Qi Yunjin's originally tense brows relaxed, and the corners of his lips were also somewhat happy, and even his tone was much lighter. "I recently sent Chen You to South City for a mission, and he won't be back for half a year, so you will temporarily take over his vacant position as Yu Duhu."

Chen You, also known as the director of the prison, holds two positions. In addition to being the director of the prison, his other official position is to be responsible for protecting the emperor and helping out with some trivial matters in life. His title is Yu Du Hu.

In fact, as the director of the prison department, Chen You was busy with prison affairs all day long. As for the position of Yu Duhu above him, it was just a title that Qi Yunjin casually gave him back then.

The Protector-General who is not in the capital now to protect the Emperor's safety must elect someone to take over temporarily, otherwise the ministers in the court will have to find ways to get people to their side.

Gu Junqing arrived at the right time.

Gu Junqing knew what he had to do every day as Protector Yu. He just had to stay in the palace, stay by the emperor's side to protect him, and serve him when he was free. Sometimes he even had to stay overnight in the palace. Gu Junqing was speechless and didn't know what to say. After all, he was the one who took the initiative to bring it up at the beginning.

Since the emperor had already said it and there was no joking expression on his face, Gu Junqing knew that this matter was a foregone conclusion.

Maybe as soon as she leaves the palace, someone will know that Chen You's position as Yu Du Hu will be temporarily taken over by her.
