Chosen Son

After Gu Fan sent the medicine to the cold palace that day, the emperor's fearful heart finally let go of half, and after letting go, his mind moved to other strange places.For example, search for all kinds of beauties.Not only collecting, but also pulling Gu Fan to appreciate it together, it is just a confirmation of the reputation of the two of them working together.Gu Fan originally thought that such a foolish monarch would have a very easy life if he didn't go to court all day long, but he didn't expect that he would go to the palace every now and then.

On this day, he managed to get a free time to recuperate at the mansion. He had just been lying in the courtyard for half an hour when a young eunuch in the palace came to pass him a message:

"Master Gu, the emperor asks you to go again today!"

Gu Fan opened his eyes weakly, and first rolled his eyes at Tian He's mind, which frightened the eunuch who summoned him, thinking that he had somehow angered the legendary eunuch. The lord with a very bad temper quickly bowed and said, "My lord, are you feeling unwell?"

"...It's okay." Gu Fan waved his hand at him, signaling to him that he can get out of here, "I'll be there right away."

Speaking of which, although this stupid gentleman is not very good at government affairs, he has unique experience in other aspects—especially in appreciating beauties. The girls selected have their own characteristics, ranging from the gentle girl next door to the big Seeing the rich and graceful royal demeanor, it's like collecting illustrations, but it's a pity that he has been taken into the harem without exception.

He tidied himself up, didn't wear any special formal clothes, and went to the palace in a stroll.From a distance, he saw Junjun talking to a girl in blue, and his eyes lit up for a moment.

Different from those girls before, this one is aloof and doesn't have a smile on her face at all. Fortunately, her own temperament is out of the ordinary, and she doesn't look too stiff when she makes such an expression. It tasted a bit cold, no wonder the Hunjun on the side stared straight at the eyes.

only......

Gu Fan looked at the emperor in front of him a little stiffly, and his mind went blank for a moment: "Your Majesty, did you just say that you want to marry this girl to me?"

The emperor seemed to be in a good mood, and patted him on the shoulder rarely, with a gentle face: "Gu Aiqing has made a great contribution this time, and she has worked hard for helping me recently. There are enough silver treasures, this time, let's change to a new way."

Gu Fan smiled convulsively at him twice: "This...isn't that good?"

So what... Your Majesty, sometimes it is better to follow the rules than to be innovative, really...

"What's wrong?" The emperor was still smiling, but the temperature around him suddenly dropped, "Are you looking down on this girl, or are you looking down on me?"

This crime is serious, Gu Fan's whole body trembled, he understood that this is not a questioning sentence, but an affirmative sentence, he quickly handed over his hands and thanked him.

When I came here, I was alone, but when I left, I brought an extra person back. She was still a big girl, and Gu Fan’s head was getting bigger. She never thought that she could open a side plot while doing the main task. Dare to let it out——If the foolish king wants to trouble him again, it will happen for no reason, so he has to stay at home to eat and drink for offerings. I have become one with the air, and I am not so angry that I want to throw myself into the river because I am in the same room with the well-known courtiers.

Because she was too quiet, Gu Fan almost forgot her existence, and even forgot the iron law of "there will never be useless NPCs in the game", so that she almost gameover in this world, this is a later story .

Let's say that King Jin hasn't moved since he took the medicine.Although Gu Fan said he was coaxing the emperor to let him temporarily save his younger brother's life, the investigation was really going on, not to collect evidence of crimes so that they could be wiped out, but to see how much money King Jin really had.When he met in the cold palace that day, he felt more and more that within three years, His Royal Highness Prince Jin would rise up and throw his useless brother from the dragon chair.

If that's the case, he will save a lot of trouble, the world will be reversed, and the one sitting on the dragon chair will have a better chance of winning.By that time, the threat to the life of His Royal Highness King Jin will be much smaller.

It doesn't matter after this investigation, but nothing was found out.

"You mean, His Royal Highness King Jin spends all day writing and drawing in the cold palace, never leaving the gate?" Gu Fan sat in the lobby, looking at the respectful man in black in front of him with a look of surprise. He really didn't dare to trust the leader of the hidden guard too much, "Why do I not believe so? Can he stay?"

"The subordinates have been wandering outside the cold palace to monitor these days. His Royal Highness Jin Wang has never been out of the house, and his life is very regular. Even the time to go out for a walk is fixed every day." Zhisha looked a little embarrassed , "The subordinates can only spy on the outside, and they dare not break into the inner room again, so as not to startle the snake."

"Did you announce the imperial physician?" Gu Fan rubbed the pattern on the chair, lost in thought.

"No."

"Is it because he doesn't even want to struggle?" The corner of Gu Fan's mouth twitched, "I really don't know if it means he is chic or kind."

He thought for a while, then asked, "What about his maid?"

Speaking of this, Zhisha's face showed a trace of unbearable: "His Royal Highness Prince Jin lives in the Leng Palace, and most of the servants in the Leng Palace follow the trend. They just deal with the things at hand and then they are tired and sick. There is always no one, only the maid next to His Highness will never leave, follow behind her every day and take care of her carefully."

"Something's wrong." Gu Fan murmured, "He doesn't look like someone who would sit and wait for death in Hui'an, could it be that I'm overthinking it?"

"Master, do you think His Royal Highness Prince Jin might do some tricks in private?" Zhi Sha asked.

"It's not possible, it's certain." Gu Fan said confidently, "Just a mediocre person like the Holy One still wants to secure the throne, King Jin already has talent, and has carefully prepared and planned for the heir over the years, it is unlikely that because of a If the court fails, give up completely.”

After the voice fell for a long time, he didn't hear Zhi Sha's voice. He tilted his head in doubt, and saw Zhi Sha looking at him tremblingly: "Master, what did you say just now?"

Gu Fan recalled it for a while and fell silent.

I have complained too much in my heart, and just said it out of the mouth... He straightened his sleeves as if nothing had happened: "You didn't hear anything."

Killing: "..."

"What does the master want to do?" He seemed to feel that it was very painful to pretend that he didn't hear it when he heard it. His expression was distorted for a long time, but he didn't distort it into a satisfied one. He simply lowered his head and asked.

Gu Fan paced back and forth for two steps, and finally made a decision: "King Jin must have his own way of conveying news. In this way, let's change our thinking and stop dealing with him. You send some people to each place where you used to communicate with him. Keep an eye on the friendly ministers to see if there are any clues, and be careful not to show your signs."

"Yes." Zhi Sha accepted the task neatly, and then said, "It's just... the ministers who are good friends with the King of Jin are very cautious on weekdays, and the subordinates cannot ensure that they can keep an eye on everything."

"Don't worry, I'll give you a list later." Gu Fan smiled mysteriously.

He found this list in the middle of the desk drawer, and it was hidden very hidden. If he hadn't been bored and lived through the memory of the original owner in his mind, he would not have discovered such a good thing hidden here for a while, so it can be seen The original owner was indeed far-sighted.This sycophant's reputation is not in vain.I don't know when he started to observe and sort it out. In short, if Gu Fan didn't want to delay the time, he can take this list to go to work now.

There are those who are notoriously timid and fearful, some who maintain neutrality on the surface, and even the well-known emperor's party. It can be seen how deeply King Jin's eyeliner is buried, and it also reflects how much the original owner's mind is. deep.

If it wasn't for Gu Fan who came here by accident, this should be a contest of rivals.

now...

Gu Fan took a deep breath, the contest is not over, it is still possible to use the information at hand to assist His Royal Highness Prince Jin, I hope he can work hard, quickly overthrow the faint king, make a comeback from the cold palace, reach the pinnacle of life, and then Then he can retire and do good deeds without leaving a name and leave the stage to them.

He expected well, King Jin was indeed not reconciled, but he knew that he was the emperor's focus and attack target, so on the surface he acted in a smooth manner.Although the ministers are also very cautious on weekdays, their IQ is not as high as that of King Jin, and there are still many flaws exposed. Although the killing will be confused from time to time, it is still very reliable at critical moments. After a few days, the news is brought return.

"Their traces are indeed very unusual." He said, "It should be plotting something. The master expected it, but most of these people are very cautious, and I only noticed a few news transmissions occasionally. It should be Jin It came from the king's side."

"It's okay, it should be the preparation work now, so naturally there won't be too many lies." Gu Fan took a sip of tea slowly, "I can let you find out that it should be my medicine that made some people anxious and wanted to find out about the palace. news from here."

Fortunately, I know that if the original owner is changed, then all of you will be in bad luck.

"This subordinate understands, so let's continue to investigate." Zhi Sha bowed, and then said, "On the way back, this subordinate also heard a piece of news, and I don't know whether to tell it or not."

"It's not appropriate to talk about it." Gu Fan blew, blowing away the tea leaves on the clear liquid a little.

Zhi Sha was taken aback for a moment, his face flushed red.After holding back for a long time, he still said: "This subordinate still wants to talk."

Gu Fan endured and endured, but he still couldn't hold back, and laughed out loud: "Okay, just kidding, let's talk about it."

Silly children are really sincere.

"My subordinates have heard that His Majesty intends to move His Royal Highness King Jin's biological mother to the Qingquan Temple outside the palace for cleaning, but this matter is still in the making and has not yet taken shape."

Gu Fan didn't hold back, and sprayed tea all over his head and face.
