Indulge in the national teacher

Gu Fang lifted up the corner of the curtain of the carriage, and he saw Zhang Pu was talking to a man in court clothes.Seeing that they seemed to be talking for a long time, Gu Fang frowned a little irritably,

Just at this moment, Lian Zong also turned his head to look this way.Seeing Gu Fang's tense expression, he moved to Gu Fang's side without thinking twice, and then lightly patted Gu Fang's back twice.

He felt the warm body under his hands that could still be touched through the not-so-thick clothes, and couldn't help but pause.But Lian Zong quickly concealed his inexplicable embarrassment, and then comforted Gu Fang with a smile: "Don't worry."

Gu Fang's eyes widened slightly, obviously he didn't expect Lian Zong to make such an intimate gesture.He leaned back subconsciously, and whispered, "I know."

Lian Zong withdrew his hand unhurriedly, as if nothing happened just now.

Lian Heng sat on the side, although he felt that Gu Fang was a little different from his brother before, but he just couldn't tell what the problem was.

Fortunately, His Royal Highness Qinyang Wang has never been a person who likes to make troubles for himself. After thinking about it, he put these things behind him.

After about a cup of tea, Zhang Pu finally returned to the carriage, and then drove the carriage away from the palace smoothly.

As for the palace man, according to Zhang Pu's report, he was from the palace of Concubine Yue.This person used to serve Lian Zong in the Qianyuan Palace, but he was brought back to the Internal Affairs Bureau because of a little mistake.In the past few months, several concubines were canonized in succession, and the Internal Affairs Bureau assigned him to Concubine Yue.

Today he was originally going home with Concubine Yue to visit relatives, but he was sent back halfway, and happened to meet Zhang Pu.He also has excellent eyesight, and recognized Zhang Pu in disguise at a glance, and called Zhang Pu to stop.

Fortunately, Zhang Pu was clever, and fooled him into saying that he was sending treasures to the royal family outside the palace, and that person believed him, so Gu Fang and Lian Zong and Lian Heng were not found.

Gu Fang and Lian Zong didn't take this incident to heart, but Lian Heng yelled, "I can't think of any treasure that needs to bother you, the head of internal affairs."

Even Gu Fang could hear the teasing in his tone, not to mention the wise and mighty Emperor and the exquisite Zhang Pu.

Sure enough, Lian Zong slapped Lian Zong on the head severely in front of Gu Fang, and reprimanded Lian Heng pretending to be angry.

But Zhang Pu didn't make a sound, but Gu Fang saw through the curtain that Zhang Pu had a smile on his face.

From this point of view, Zhang Pu really lived up to Lian Zong's most trusted person, and the relationship between the master and servant was good.

It didn't take long before they arrived at Baiyuelou.After they sat in the pre-booked private room, Zhang Pu went to the shopkeeper to rush to serve the food.

During the Shangyuan Festival, the Baiyue Building was crowded with people, and the common people came here to taste the signature roast duck. When they got excited, they would drink wine orders and recite poems to discuss current affairs.Even if we sat in the private room on the second floor, we could still hear the noise in the lobby downstairs.

Lian Zong and Lian Heng didn't show the slightest discomfort with this noisy environment.Lian Zong even discussed with Lian Heng what the people in the downstairs hall said with great interest.

Gu Fang glanced at the two people who were chatting happily, and then turned his gaze out of the window.

Strictly speaking, this is the second time he has played in the capital.I remember the last time, it was before he was ten years old.At that time, his mother begged for a favor from the former An Guogong, and then took Gu to her natal family outside the capital to play.

and many more.

Gu Fang suddenly remembered something.

"Is there a gymnasium outside the capital?" He turned to look at Lian Zong who was tasting wine.

"That's right, there is a Qingcheng temple." Lian Zong drank the fine wine in the glass in one gulp, and then replied in a nonchalant tone, "What's wrong?"

Gu Fang thought about it and told Lian Zong about seeing a Taoist priest at his mother's house when he was young.

He remembered that the Taoist said that he practiced in the Qingcheng Temple outside the city, and he specialized in clearing up evil spirits in the homes of ordinary people.At that time, Gu Fang didn't believe his words, because through his yin and yang eyes, he could see the evil spirit shrouding the Taoist priest at a glance.

Thinking of this, Gu Fang secretly glanced at Lian Zong again.Lian Zong's evil spirit was also very heavy, but he was not under the control of evil spirit, but the Taoist priest was not.The red light in his eyes from time to time at that time was very similar to what happened to Lian Zong before.Gu Fang felt from the bottom of his heart that that person was not a "good" Taoist priest.

"This Taoist priest seems to be very familiar with Gu Yan." Once he thought of it, all the memories of Gu Fang's childhood appeared in front of his eyes.He also discovered many things that he hadn't paid attention to when he was a child.

"Gu Yan and Yu Qi are also very familiar." Lian Zong slowly put down the wine glass in his hand, and put away his smile.

Gu Fang and Lian Heng wisely closed their mouths at this moment.They can all see that Lian Zong's mood is not very bright now.

"Now that I think about it, the Qingcheng Temple was suddenly established after Yuqi became a national teacher." Lian Zong said quietly.

Gu Fang regretted telling these things at this time, but if they don't know anything, it will be really scary when the accident happens.

Lian Zong obviously also thought of taking precautions before they happen.He immediately ordered the hidden guards to strengthen the guards, and sent a letter to the palace people to let the forbidden army go to Qingcheng to watch and deploy defenses.

When he was making these arrangements, he didn't avoid Gu Fang either.First, he has confidence in his ability to see people, and later, he also has confidence in Gu Fang.

Lian Heng saw that his brother and Gu Fang were silent, so he said in a lively manner: "After we finish eating the roast duck, let's go to Mingxin Lake outside the city. At this time, the sweet-scented osmanthus by the lake is in full bloom."

This is obviously a very playful person.Gu Fang glanced at Lian Zong, then picked up the teacup and did not speak.

Zhang Pu soon came back with the roast duck.Baiyuelou's roast duck really lived up to its reputation. It tasted crispy and tender, and they were immersed in the delicious food all at once, and they couldn't even bring up any worries.

When they were eating to their heart's content, they suddenly heard a loud noise from the private room next door. It sounded like someone had pushed the table to the ground.

Naturally, such a big movement won't only attract Gu Fang's attention, there are already many people looking around next door.

"Zhang Pu, go and have a look." Lian Zong put down his chopsticks and ordered slowly.

Zhang Pu went out with his head down.

In the cubicle, Lian Zong said to Gu Fang naturally: "When we return to the palace, you can take some copies back." His eyes were piercing.

"...Okay." Although Gu Fang knew in his heart that Lian Zong was thinking about the ancestors, he still felt a little hot for no reason, and couldn't help but look away from him.

Then in the next moment he heard Lian Zong's undisguised chuckle.

After this person left the palace, he really became more and more relaxed. He didn't look like a king of a country at all.

Not long after, Zhang Pu came back.

Under Lian Zong's gesture, he vividly learned what he heard from us.

Hearing him imitate the voices of the quarreling couple so vividly, Gu Fang took a lot of effort to hold back his laughter.As for Lian Heng, he had already been swaying from side to side with a smile. If Lian Zong hadn't seen him kicking him, Gu Fang suspected that Lian Heng was going to sit under the chair.

But Zhang Pu is really talented, he can imitate the pampered eldest lady and the equally stubborn son of the family so much.

"It turns out to be the daughter of Zhongshu Ling's family." After Lian Heng laughed enough, he sat upright under Lian Zong's face hiding a knife in his smile. He clenched his fist and coughed twice, saying, "Isn't the imperial concubine going back today?" Zhongshu Ling's family visitation? Why isn't this young lady waiting for her biological sister at home?"

As soon as he said that, Gu Fang remembered.The eldest daughter of Zhongshu Ling Shangguan is the imperial concubine in the palace, and she is currently the highest-ranking concubine in the palace.

"My lord doesn't know that the imperial concubine and this Miss Shangguan are not born of the same mother." Zhang Pu explained, "The mother of the imperial concubine is the deceased original wife of Mr. Zhongshuling."

"That's it." Lian Heng immediately understood, and he applauded loudly, "It seems that the imperial concubine's return to her mother's house is not something everyone is happy about."

After discussing this Miss Shangguan, Lian Heng asked who that young master was.Seeing his high spirits, Zhang Pu didn't want to dismiss his little master's nature, so he said it very frankly.

Gu Fang glanced sideways and sat there standing still, listening to Lian Zong very seriously, suddenly felt that such a leisurely time was not what he had always wanted.

From Zhang Pu's description, Gu Fang and the others learned that the son of the aristocratic family also came from an extraordinary background, and he was the third son of King Ningping.The second elder brother of the third son was the one who discussed marriage with Gu Xue before, and then contacted the Li family, and wanted to send Gu Xue to the palace.

King Ningping and Zhongshu Ling are both supporters of the Supreme Emperor. Although the Supreme Emperor is ignoring the government, they still make trouble for Lian Zong.

After the draft, the eldest daughter of Zhongshuling's family became the imperial concubine in the palace. Although there were no rumors that she was favored by the sixth palace, Zhongshuling always felt that he was superior in their camp.This made King Ningping, who was born in the royal family, a little dissatisfied.

Today, on the Shangyuan Festival, Miss Shangguan and the third son of King Ning Ping traveled together. Originally, Zhong Shuling wanted to ease the relationship with King Ning Ping by consummating the marriage. Unexpectedly, Miss Shangguan actually looked down on King Ning Ping in her words.This caused the quarrel.

"It turns out that when they have internal strife, it's really fun!" Lian Heng patted the table and laughed, thanks to Lian Zong's timely horizontal glance to stop him, it is estimated that it will attract interested people.

Naturally, it is gratifying to have such a fight in the nest.But Gu Fang looked at His Majesty the Emperor who was sitting there calmly drinking tea, and always felt that there was a lot of tricks in it.

Noticing Gu Fang's eyes, Lian Zong smiled and said nothing.

After hearing the gossip and eating delicious food, Gu Fang, Lian Zong, and Lian Heng all came to the lake outside the city with joy.

From a distance, Gu Fang looked at the people who guarded him in the Lian Zong barracks.

Although several months have passed, Gu Fang still has lingering fears about that person's ability to speak.

When approaching those Lian Zong's subordinates, Gu Fang deliberately walked towards Lian Heng.

Lian Heng teased Gu Fang: "Didn't you always dislike me for talking too much, and would rather be with Brother Huang than play with me? Why did you come here by yourself this time?"

After getting along in the National Teacher Tower some time ago, the relationship between Gu Fang and Lian Heng has grown a lot, so in front of Gu Fang, Lian Heng is also very relaxed.

Gu Fang gave him a blank look, and then said, "I'm just afraid that you might accidentally fall into the lake."

Just as Lian Heng was about to reply, he heard a loud "plop".

Those of them by the lake all looked towards the source of the sound, only to see a woman in red struggling in the lake.

Someone actually fell into the lake.

Lian Heng's face turned green all of a sudden.
