Indulge in the national teacher

Ji Lianzong's ability to control the former court and the harem, the first time Shangguan Guifei sent someone out to contact his mother's family, he got the news from the secret guard.

Lian Zong pondered for a moment, and then told the secret guard in charge of watching: "Don't act rashly, keep watching, I want to know everything they talked about."

"Yes." The dark guard knelt in front of Lian Zong, bowed his head and gave the order.

Then he flitted out of the window with a "swoosh", so fast that Zhang Pu, who was keeping his face outside, didn't notice that someone just passed by him.

Zhang Pu only felt that the wind was a bit strong tonight, and thought in his heart that if the little palace people came from the charcoal fires of the Internal Affairs Bureau, His Majesty the Emperor would not be frozen.

Lian Zong naturally didn't know his confidant's sudden "slender" thoughts, he looked at the snowflakes still falling outside the window, and his thoughts immediately drifted to Gu Fang.

Lian Zong was thinking about Gu Fang, but Gu Fang had no time to think about His Majesty the Emperor at this moment.

He looked at the sacrificial offering sent by Zhang Pu, and asked the imperial guard in charge of the delivery in puzzlement, "Has the sacrificial offering been delivered so early?"

"Returning Master, this is only a part. Since this year is the first year of His Majesty's ascension to the throne, the sacrificial ceremony will naturally be more grand than in previous years, and there will be more sacrifices." The imperial guard shook his head and explained: "From tomorrow onwards there will be more sacrifices." It was delivered one after another."

Gu Fang then nodded in understanding.He entered the National Teacher Tower with the forbidden army, and just wanted to have the sacrifices transported to the ice storage on the fifth floor, but found that so many sacrifices seemed to be carried up by people.

He was at a loss for a moment: "This..."

"National teacher don't have to worry." The forbidden soldier smiled, "Just leave it to our brothers."

As soon as he finished speaking, the other officers and soldiers of the Forbidden Army who followed him also laughed, and some even made an exaggerated gesture to show their physical strength.

Gu Fang was amused by their actions.But he didn't laugh on the spot, he just gave a low cough, and then led the way.

The leader of the imperial army saw that the national teacher was not angry because of their presumptuous behavior, he was relieved and at the same time beat the frivolous imperial army hard.

He lowered his voice: "Don't you even look at this place? Do you still think this is a border gate? What do you want to do?"

The person who was hit by him touched the painful place innocently, and said, "I'm not used to it? Besides, it is said that Master Guoshi has a good relationship with our marshal, so they should..."

He suddenly frowned in distress, and asked the people beside him, "How should I say that word?"

The people beside him gave him a blank look, then picked up the sacrifices that had been packed into bags, and strode forward: "You don't know it yourself, how could I know it."

Gu Fang listened to the somewhat nonsensical conversations of these forbidden soldiers at the front and knew that these people had fought with Lian Zong, and they should all be trustworthy, otherwise Lian Zong wouldn't have arranged them into the forbidden army's team .

It's just that he didn't expect that the people under Lian Zong had such a detached personality, and the common people called Lian Zong's army "the division of a hundred battles" and "the division of ever-victorious".

In fact, the voices of these forbidden soldiers are not very loud, but Gu Fang is now practicing boxing with sharp eyes and ears, so he can naturally hear what they are saying.

After the Imperial Army moved all the sacrifices into the fifth-floor icehouse, they said goodbye to Gu Fang.

Gu Fang looked like he was not breathing very much, thinking that these people who had been on the battlefield were indeed extraordinary.

Thinking about it, the appearance of the master of these people suddenly appeared in front of Gu Fang's eyes, and he didn't know what His Majesty the Emperor was doing now.

He leaned against the head of the bed, touched the beating heart here, and knew that he might have fallen into it completely, into the big pit called "Lian Zong".

The next morning, the sun finally broke through the heavy clouds and fog and penetrated in.When the warm sun shrouded the palace, the thick snow that had piled up yesterday began to melt.

But even if the sun melts the snow, the snow on the road still needs to be cleared manually, otherwise the nobles in the palace will easily fall down when they walk by.

Even those little maids and guards are more careful in their actions than usual.

But someone stumbled all the way into the Qianyuan Hall, and found Zhang Pu, the head of internal affairs, out of breath.

"My lord is not good." The palace man who came running around told Zhang Pu, "The servant is in charge of the sacrifices from the Internal Affairs Bureau. Today, the sacrifices that have been processed are counted and they are transported to the National Master Pagoda. At that time, I found that there was one less set of teacups for sacrificial rituals, so what should I do?"

The little palace man blushed with anxiety.

Sacrifice is very important to the Dayao Dynasty. Now that the sacrificial supplies are lost in the Internal Affairs Bureau, those who work in the Internal Affairs Bureau cannot absolve themselves of the blame.But it would be fine if only one of them was punished, I'm afraid they will be implicated in the whole family.

"Why do you work on errands!" Zhang Pu knew it was not good when he heard it, he hit the little palace man hard, and then hurriedly ran into Qianyuan Hall.

It's fine if it's other things, like those sacrificial food, although it's troublesome to make, but they are all stored, even in the National Master Tower.But the teacups used for sacrifices are different. Those teacups were handed down from the founding of Dayao, and they are truly valuable things.

It can be said that Zhang Pu crawled up to Lian Zong and told about the theft of the teacup.After speaking, his back in thick clothes was wet with sweat.But Zhang Pu didn't feel the cold at all now, he just felt that His Majesty looked at him with eyes full of unkindness.

Of course Lian Zong was angry.Since he ascended the throne, he has sent his subordinates to replace part of the imperial army, and many hidden guards have hidden in the palace, so it can be said that he has the entire palace in his hands.But now, someone slapped him in the face with the theft of sacrificial supplies.

But the more it got to this time, the smile on Lian Zong's face became deeper and deeper.

"Zhang Pu, I'll give you three days to investigate this matter, otherwise you don't have to be a manager." Lian Zong stared at Zhang Pu who was kneeling in front of him.

How dare Zhang Pu refuse to do so.After he left the Qianyuan Hall, he had people call all the palace servants, maids, and guards to the Internal Affairs Bureau.

Even if the courtyard of the Internal Affairs Bureau couldn't fit so many people, he would force it!

Here Zhang Pu is in a hurry to interrogate the palace maids.On the other side, Gu Fang comforted the distraught emperor in the National Teacher Pagoda.

When Lian Zong came to the National Teacher Tower suddenly, Gu Fang didn't want to see him.Although he admitted that he fell on Lian Zong's body, he still felt a little awkward in his heart, and didn't really want to see Lian Zong's face that would upset him.

But when Gu Fang saw Lian Zong's expression with a deep smile that couldn't reach his eyes, and after hearing about the theft of the sacrificial supplies, he didn't have the heart to think about those hypocritical things.

"Tell me, what's going on?" Gu Fang handed Lian Zong a cup of hot water, asking him to relieve the cold first.

But when he withdrew his hand, he was firmly grabbed by Lian Zong.

"I feel bad." Lian Zong suddenly moaned and leaned against Gu Fang, rubbing his head against Gu Fang's neck.

"Don't make trouble." Gu Fang said so, but he didn't really push Lian Zong away.

"Those tea sets are important?" Gu Fang asked.

"It was left by the ancestors." Lian Zong explained, "These are the ones that have been used for sacrifices over the years, and they have been around for a long time."

"Then just change it." Gu Xin turned around in thought, "Things passed down from the ancestors should be cherished, and if you continue to use them like this, one day they will go bad."

After he finished speaking, he wanted to hear Lian Zong's thoughts, but he just buried his head in his neck and didn't speak.

Gu Fang thought that something was wrong with Lian Zong, when he heard Lian Zong suddenly laugh in a low voice.

Seeing him twitching with laughter, how could Gu Fang not realize that Lian Zong actually had a solution long ago, but he just pretended not to worry him?

Therefore, Gu Fang pushed Lian Zong away unhappily, and then said coldly: "Since your Majesty has a solution, what are you doing in the National Master Tower?"

Seeing that Gu Fang was really angry, Lian Zong hurried to Gu Fang and said, "I really need your help."

Seeing that Lian Zong's expression didn't look like he was lying, Gu Fang reluctantly expressed his willingness to continue listening to him.

Lian Zong didn't hide anything, he said: "The trouble with this matter is changing the tea set."

It turns out that the tea sets handed down from the generation of Emperor Kaiyuan really went through a "miracle".During a sacrifice more than a hundred years ago, someone saw the soul body of Emperor Kaiyuan.

And it's not just one person, but many people. To be precise, the descendants of the royal family who participated in the sacrifice that year saw Emperor Kaiyuan suddenly "come" and drink water with tea sets that are exactly the same as those tea sets.

"They all believe that this is an ancient utensil brought back to their old master." Lian Zong asked Gu Fang at this point, "Why don't you see your ancestors?"

Hearing Lian Zong's question, Gu Fang glanced at him lightly and said, "Do you want your ancestors to see us as we are now?"

"What's wrong with us now?" Lian Zong was puzzled.

Gu Fang sneered and pulled Lian Zong's hand out of his coat. He snorted, but didn't respond.

Lian Zong laughed in a low voice, but he didn't feel how embarrassed he was, instead he took this opportunity to hug Gu Fang even tighter.

"So I need my ancestors to come forward to make this happen." Lian Zong saw that Gu Fang was looking at him wrongly, so he hurriedly talked about the tea set again to divert Gu Fang's attention.

How could Gu Fang not know his intention?But after thinking about it, he decided to solve the immediate problem first, and then discuss with Lian Zong about their "getting along".

"Then wait for the ancestors to come back." Gu Fang said, "Master and the others have been out for a while, and it's time to come back."

"Well, no hurry." Lian Zong lazily replied, "Just let me deal with the traitor issue first."
