Quick Wear: The bad female supporting role, the male protagonist prefers

Chapter 173: The Queen Mother's Relatives Who Want to Become the Queen (2)

Gao Shaofu sneered in his heart. With Gu's temperament and character, how could she be worthy of being the heir of a country?

The queen is the mother of a country and a role model for all the people in the world. Gu is shallow and ignorant, and only knows how to enjoy herself. She is unable to shoulder the responsibilities of the mother of the country.

For the sake of the Gu family, he would give her the position of a noble concubine. As long as she stopped using those despicable and vicious means, she would be the most honorable master in the harem except for the empress dowager.

He did not plan to establish a queen. Unless something unexpected happened, his cousin would be the only concubine in the harem.

As long as she is sensible and behaves herself, he will just treat her as a gorgeous and delicate vase in his harem.

Gao Shaofu thought about it and did not want to discourage his cousin's thoughts, so he did not answer her question. He just asked her to put on her clothes and planned to let his confidant send her back to the Empress Dowager's Shoukang Palace.

"Your Majesty, my clothes are no longer wearable. Please bring me a new set of clothes."

Gao Shaofu followed the line of sight of Gu Shutang, who was wrapped in a quilt and trying hard to suppress her shyness as she said these words to him. He saw pieces of clothing scattered on the ground. He coughed lightly and shifted his gaze.

But his eyes couldn't help but glance at Gu Shutang's exposed, white, tender and delicate shoulders. He thought of the wonderful time he had just had in bed with her, and his heart was moved.

The matter is done. Since she has become his woman, as long as she restrains herself in the future and stops doing stupid things, he can forget all the past.

He shifted his gaze away from her, opened a small crack beside the palace door, and called the secret guards around him to go to the east side hall of Shoukang Palace to get Gu Shutang's clothes.

After receiving the order, the secret guard did not leave immediately, but reported that Gu Shutang's maid was still guarding his colleagues and asked for his permission.

Gao Shaofu originally wanted to secretly deal with the maid who knew about their affairs, but he thought that the maid who was brought to the palace banquet by Gu Shutang must be a maid she trusted.

Since he was unwilling to give her the position of queen, he should have been lenient with her in other matters.

Moreover, the maid was eager to protect her master and was only thinking about Gu Shutang. It would be a pity for Gu Shutang to lose her, so he asked the secret guards to take the maid back to the east side hall of Shoukang Palace and threatened her to keep silent and not to tell anything.

The secret guards intimidated the maid in the side hall. When she was trembling with fear and dared not say anything, they took her back to the east side hall, asked her to get Princess Jiaping's clothes, and then brought her back to Yuzhang Hall.

Princess Jiaping is a girl from a noble family, and she has just experienced lovemaking with His Majesty, so she must have a maid helping her change clothes.

After giving orders to the secret guards, Gao Shaofu planned to leave. Calculating the time, he had stayed in the palace for a long time, and the palace banquet outside had already ended.

In previous palace banquets, it was not uncommon for him to leave after only half of the attendance. The officials were used to it and would disperse when the time came.

He wanted to go back to the imperial study to deal with the government affairs that were delayed today due to the palace banquet, but Gu Shutang pulled his sleeve pitifully and prevented him from leaving.

"Your Majesty, are you leaving? Your Majesty is leaving me here alone and disheveled. If someone with ill intentions comes in, what should I do?"

Gao Shaofu moved his lips, wanting to say that the palace banquet had ended long ago. Looking at the time, the palace gates were already locked, and it was impossible for any outsider to stay in the palace.

But when he looked at Gu Shutang, who had never shown such vulnerability in front of him, he still didn't say anything and sat down beside the bed. "I won't leave. I'll stay beside you."

"Your Majesty, could you please fetch some water so I can clean myself?"

Gu Shutang looked straight at Gao Shaofu, her hair falling from her shoulders and landing in Gao Shaofu's hands.

Her body was slippery with sweat. If she didn't wash it, Gu Shutang felt that she would not be able to sleep tonight.

When they returned to Shoukang Palace, it was already late at night and asking for water would inevitably alarm the empress dowager, so they had no choice but to ask him for this.

Gao Shaofu felt the softness of his hand and immediately agreed, calling one of the remaining secret guards to fetch water.

They're just small things, it doesn't hurt to satisfy her.

The secret guards around the emperor asked for water, and the palace maids and eunuchs did not dare to delay.

After a while, the secret guards came over with several buckets of water and a clean bathtub, and used a screen to block the prying eyes through the palace door.

Gu Shutang came out from the thin blanket covering her body, naked, and walked directly to the bathtub. Gao Shaofu stood beside her without any intention of taking his eyes away, staring at her bathing without any hesitation.

We are all his, there is no need to be so secretive.

The palace door was suddenly opened, and the maid holding a tray with clothes on it was pushed into the palace by the secret guard. The secret guard did not dare to look at the situation inside the palace, but just pushed the person in.

"Mu Yue?"

Looking at the maid who was kneeling on the ground and not daring to look any further, Gu Shutang called out the maid's name.

When Musk Moon heard her princess calling her name, her heart, which had been beating violently with fear, calmed down a little and she responded to her call.

"Come and help your master change his clothes."

"Yes."

After saying this, Gao Shaofu got up from the bed and walked out of the hall, as if he was not at all moved by her bathing.

However, Gu Shutang, who was in the bathtub, chuckled in her heart when she heard the man's slightly messy steps, but she didn't expose him and let him pretend.

His untidy steps betrayed that his heart was not as calm as his appearance.

"I will let An Yi and the others take you back."

"Don't alarm the Queen Mother about what's going on between you and me. Wait until I give you the decree to enfeoff you before you tell her."

Gao Shaofu glanced at everyone in the hall, his tone full of undisturbed arguments.

Tears welled up in Gu Shutang's eyes. She bit her lip aggrievedly, glanced at Gao Shaofu, then lowered her eyes and agreed.

Unfortunately, Gao Shaofu did not feel any sympathy for her tears. After all, he knew very well what kind of person she was.

She was granted the title of Princess Jiaping at the age of five and entered the palace to accompany the empress dowager. She could be said to be his cousin who grew up under his care.

Although she looks cute and innocent, she is actually more willful and even vicious than the princesses left by his father.

The reason why he had not appointed a queen for many years after ascending the throne was all thanks to her behind-the-scenes manipulation.

He bribed the people of the Imperial Observatory and the master trusted by the empress dowager, saying that it was not suitable for him to get married early, so that the empress dowager would not be anxious and urge him to become queen and take concubines.

This was the only good thing his cousin had done. Gao Shaofu was unwilling to mention the other things reported by the secret guards. He even felt that his cousin had behaved inappropriately and brought shame to the Gu family.

The female doctor he summoned into the palace for his mother's health was an example. Somehow, she was noticed by Gu Shutang, who ordered his men to make trouble for the female doctor and even wanted to drive her out of the palace.

She has always been like this since she was a child. She would try to drive away anyone she disliked. It was disgusting.
