Chapter 71
The night was as cold as water, Gu Hanzhao escaped from the banquet and hid in the gazebo by the lake, his drowsy head was a little awaked by the night wind.He sat in the pavilion for a while, and was not ready to get up and leave until he was fully awake. When he got up, he saw a curling figure approaching not far away.
Gu Hanzhao frowned slightly. He had already missed the best time to avoid it. It seemed deliberate to leave at this time, so he simply stood where he was and waited for that person to approach.
"Concubine Zhao." Seeing that Zhao Wuxia was alone, Gu Hanzhao couldn't help but feel a jump in his heart. Zhao Wuxia really had some tricks and dared to meet him alone at the palace banquet.She has only been favored for a short period of time, but she has gathered a lot of people, and she was able to hide from the guards in the palace to come here, or these guards have already been used by her.
"Master Hou." Zhao Wuxia nodded, her voice was low and soft, and as she approached, Gu Hanzhao could almost smell a scent of powder.He was used to the faint smell of herbs on Zhao Zheyu's body, but felt that the smell of powder was particularly pungent, so he took a few steps back calmly, keeping a distance from Zhao Wuxia.
Seeing that he didn't want to get involved with him, Zhao Wuxia saw that the faint smile that was hanging on the corner of his mouth seemed to have froze. Seeing this, Gu Hanzhao simply turned his gaze to the lake.
"Your Majesty, I'm leaving first." Gu Hanzhao didn't know what Zhao Wuxia's plan was, but he instinctively didn't want to be alone with her, so he didn't say anything more after bowing, and when he finished his resignation, he was about to leave but was stopped by Zhao Wuxia down.
"Wait a minute, Lord Hou. I have something important to discuss with Lord Hou." Seeing that Gu Hanzhao was about to refuse, Zhao Wuxia took the lead in interrupting, "When Lord Hou marries Jian Yu, my palace and Lord Houhou will be regarded as marriages." Relatives." Zhao Wuxia brushed the gold hairpin on his temples, and his seemingly casual words actually concealed a mystery.Gu Hanzhao paused as he was about to leave, knowing that Zhao Wuxia had deliberately pointed out Zhao Jianyu to force him to submit.
"Don't you hate Hou Ye in the palace today?" Gu Hanzhao was startled, not knowing what Zhao Wuxia was thinking, Zhao Wuxia seemed not aware of his doubts, Gu Zi said: "What happened in the court today has already been wiped out." As we all know, Lord Hou is a hero of Nanze, so don't you feel resentment in your heart if you fight with your life but only get a marriage contract?"
Gu Hanzhao sneered in his heart, Zhao Wuxia didn't understand the importance of this marriage contract to him, but seeing her confident appearance, he really didn't want to waste time with her.
Seeing that he didn't answer, Zhao Wuxia thought that he had touched the other party's pain point. Who in this world doesn't love power and position. If the person present at this moment is the sluggish Gu Hanzhao from his previous life, he might have been persuaded and felt dissatisfied. It's a pity that the current Gu Hanzhao only wants to live a leisurely life with Zhao Zheyu, and has no interest in the power and status that others are rushing to.
"Your Majesty's temperament should be clear to the Marquis. The war is over, and it won't be long before the Tiger Talisman in Marquis' hand will be returned to His Majesty." Gu Hanzhao didn't understand anything when he heard this. Tempted, hoping that I can help her in the court.
"Your Majesty, if you have something to say, you might as well just say it." Gu Hanzhao guessed that he had been away for a long time, and if he didn't go back, he was afraid that Zhao Jianyu would find him, and he didn't want to talk to Zhao Wuxia anymore.
"Master Hou is really straightforward, so I will stop beating around the bush. I want Master Hou to help me suppress Queen Zhao's lineage. Lord Hou must have been dissatisfied with Uncle Zhao's words in the court today. If not He made accusations, but if you think about it, Lord Hou doesn't have to ask for a marriage contract just to appease His Majesty's suspicion." Gu Hanzhao sneered in his heart when he heard the words, Zhao Wuxia was still the same as before, always speculating on others wishfully.
"It seems that the empress has only a half-knowledge about this matter." Gu Hanzhao's expression was so light that Zhao Wuxia couldn't see what he was thinking. I can retreat to the mountains and forests and live a fairy life like idle clouds and wild cranes. As for the battle in the court, I really don't have the interest and the mind to participate in it." Zhao Wuxia has the means, but because of Zhao Chong's relationship, he doesn't have many contacts in the court, otherwise he would not Will be eager to ask Gu Hanzhao for help.
Zhao Wuxia gritted her teeth secretly when she heard the words, the court and the harem were closely related, she was not like Queen Zhao, she had Uncle Zhao in the court to help and support each other with all her strength.Zhao Chong's abilities are limited, and it is already considered extremely lucky to be able to sit in the current position, and it is simply a fantasy to go one step further.And she has already offended Empress Zhao thoroughly, if she doesn't take this opportunity to get the support of Marquis Zhenyuan, I'm afraid it will be even more difficult in this palace.Originally, she was thankful that Uncle Zhao Guo didn't know what was good or bad, and pushed Zhenyuanhou into a position that was hostile to her, but now it seems that Gu Hanzhao really has no interest in military power.
"Even if Master Hou doesn't think about himself, he should think about it for Jianyu." Zhao Wuxia saw that he didn't like him, even if he couldn't believe it, he had to admit that Zhao Jianyu did have a special place in his heart.
Gu Hanzhao narrowed his eyes when he heard the words, and didn't bother to hide the coldness in his eyes. Zhao Wuxia was taken aback by his sinister eyes, but he still answered bravely: "Master Hou, don't forget, Zhao Jianyu's surname is Zhao. , The blood of my Zhao family is flowing on his body. You should be clear about the truth that everyone is prosperous and everyone is hurt. If you want Zhao Jianyu to sleep in peace, Hou Ye must ensure that the palace is also in peace."
Gu Hanzhao didn't answer, but the coldness in his eyes was even worse.Zhao Wuxia's hands twisting the embroidered handkerchief revealed her nervousness, but she didn't show the slightest bit on her face, still showing a domineering look.Seeing that Gu Hanzhao didn't refute, she just looked at her coldly, thinking that the other party had been persuaded, and the defense in her eyes relaxed a little.
"Your Majesty, this Marquis should be very clear. I can't and won't help your Majesty. As for Bi Yu, since he entered my Zhenyuanhou Mansion, I belong to Gu Hanzhao. I will protect him. Your Majesty doesn't need to." Worry."
"You!" Zhao Wuxia saw that he still had a look of reluctance, couldn't help raising his brows, pointed at Gu Hanzhao with his index finger and trembling slightly.
"Father." During the moment of stalemate between the two, Gu Mingchen, who saw that Gu Hanzhao had not returned for a long time, found out, and Feng Yu was with him.
Zhao Wuxia was stunned, he had clearly arranged for his confidants, and he would never let anyone pass without her permission, but he never thought that these two people would not be stopped.Zhao Wuxia looked uncertain, Gu Mingchen and Feng Yu who came uninvited were not uncomfortable.This fashion is in the palace, even though Gu Mingchen does not have a good impression of Zhao Wuxia in his heart, etiquette cannot be discarded.
Zhao Wuxia reluctantly complied, but the smile on his face had already stiffened, but Gu Mingchen and the two of them acted as if they hadn't seen it.Seeing that the etiquette was exhausted, Gu Mingchen ignored Zhao Wuxia, turned his head to Gu Hanzhao and said, "Father, Daddy was very worried seeing you leaving for a long time, so I will come out with His Highness to look for you."
Gu Hanzhao rubbed Gu Mingchen's hairy head, turned his head and said to Zhao Wuxia: "If your mother has no other orders, I will step back." Seeing Feng Yu present, Zhao Wuxia couldn't say anything even if he was dissatisfied, he could only Reluctance to maintain demeanor made them leave.
Seeing that Gu Mingchen pulled him away, Gu Hanzhao knew that Feng Yu had something to say to Zhao Wuxia alone. He could guess Feng Yu's thoughts to some extent. Zhao Wuxia needed a knife that could help her eradicate Queen Zhao, and Feng Yu was Needs a shield that can hold him back.The purpose of the two coincides with each other, and they can get what they need.
Zhao Wuxia saw that the Lord had already left, and was about to leave, but saw Feng Yu still standing there, looking at him quietly, Zhao Wuxia was stunned, wondering what the other party meant.
"Is your empress very confused? Why didn't the staff I arranged remind you that someone is nearby?" The more calm Feng Yu was, the more anxious Zhao Wuxia became. She never thought that Feng Yu, who had been neglected all along, was already in the palace. Established its own power in China and controlled it so far.
"Your Majesty, don't worry, this place is very safe, no one dares to come near without my order." Seeing her panicked expression, Feng Yu comforted her lightly.
"Your Highness the Eleventh is really powerful." Zhao Wuxia gritted his teeth.
Feng Yu didn't seem to see the other party's annoyance, and played with a sachet in his hand, the faint fragrance of medicinal herbs came out from it, diluting the strong smell of powder in the air.
"I don't play tricks with my empress, I just speak up if I have something to say, otherwise my father will come here in person later." Zhao Wuxia wanted to throw up his sleeves and walk away, but thinking of the people Feng Yu had arranged in the dark, he stiffened I endured it.
"Your Majesty, if you want to cooperate with Master Zhenyuan, how about changing someone else? I understand the master's temper. He is used to being free, and no one can catch his eyes except Mr. Zhao. Your Majesty would rather waste her energy on him." Make another plan."
Zhao Wuxia looked at him in surprise, Feng Yu's words clearly meant to cooperate with him, but why?Zhao Wuxia was puzzled, before today she might have thought that Feng Yu was just a harmless prince, but now she didn't dare to think so.
"Your Highness' methods in the palace are far better than this palace, why do you still cooperate with this palace?" No wonder Zhao Wuxia was suspicious, one wrong step in the palace would end in pieces, she had to be careful.
Feng Yu didn't answer her directly, but asked a completely irrelevant question: "Your Majesty has been in the palace for some time, but why hasn't she given birth to a man and a woman for the emperor?" Zhao Wuxia almost cut off her nails when she heard this , she took care of her body every day, spared no expense in mixing spices just to have an heir, but her stomach did not respond for some reason.
After all, Zhao Wuxia's time in the palace is still short, at most he can only deploy some people in some unimportant places, as for the most secret things, it is unknown.But what Zhao Wuxia didn't know, Feng Yu knew it clearly, he slightly lowered his eyes to hide the waves in his eyes and said: "Your Majesty really thinks that Queen Zhao didn't make any preparations after you entered the palace?"
"Your Highness, what does this mean?!" Zhao Wuxia vaguely guessed something, but he didn't want to believe it, and couldn't help but wonder.
Gu Hanzhao frowned slightly. He had already missed the best time to avoid it. It seemed deliberate to leave at this time, so he simply stood where he was and waited for that person to approach.
