Contract Prince

The queen's exquisite face showed a tired look, she leaned on the carriage, closed her eyes and said slowly: "There is nothing else, since the matter has been explained, you should go back as soon as possible, lest Xue'er worry."

Gu Yunjing read a trace of sadness from the queen's expression, not only sadness, but also loneliness and remorse.

Since marrying Xiao Muxue, her contact with the queen has increased day by day.She had never seen such an expression on the queen's face, even when Xiao Zhan was released from prison, although the queen was anxious, she still remained calm.

Even now that the court is chaotic and the princes are fighting openly and secretly, the queen still maintains her calm demeanor of the mother of a country.

Gu Yunjing was very surprised, she said to herself, what happened to the queen mother?

"Yes." Gu Yunjing paused, "Mother, it's better not to tell His Royal Highness King An about my waking up for the time being. Please try my best to persuade him not to come to the Marquis Mansion. If you can't persuade him, I will I can only continue to pretend to be sick and lie in bed."

The queen frowned: "Since you don't want Zhan'er to know that you have recovered, why did you agree to invite you into the palace just now in his name?"

"If His Highness King An really wanted to summon me, he would let Eunuch Chen and other palace officials pass on the message. How could he let my mother tell me later?"

The queen nodded, and then asked: "You want to keep it a secret from him? Zhan'er has lost a lot of weight these days, and every time he thinks about you, he can't eat anymore. If it weren't for all the troubles, he should have come with the book today. The Hou Mansion is visiting you."

Gu Yunjing shook his head and said, "It's not that I want to keep it secret, it's just a stopgap measure for two reasons. First, King Zhao knows that I'm seriously injured and dying, so he will definitely speed up his actions. I want to know what their last move will be?"

"Secondly, there are many things that His Royal Highness King An should be on his own. Although His Royal Highness is full of ambitions, he is indeed too dependent on me. It is not appropriate to continue like this. If you want to become a generation of Mingjun, you must have your own skills and courage. King An If His Highness thinks that I am still unconscious, he can only choose to face this undercurrent situation by himself, which will be a huge improvement to his ability."

The queen opened her eyes and asked Gu Yunjing, "Aren't you going to assist Zhan'er?"

Gu Yunjing smiled softly: "I have never planned to live in a temple. After His Royal Highness King An successfully enthroned, I will go back to the mountains and forests with Xueer, and live a life of idle clouds and wild cranes every day. The bright moon and the breeze are at ease, so What a pleasant life."

The queen regretted: "If you go back to the mountains and forests, wouldn't all your talents be buried?"

"I don't have much talent, but my brain is more diligent and my mouth is smoother. In troubled times, these two points may come in handy. But in times of peace and prosperity, these two points are of no use. His Royal Highness King An has a kind heart , as long as he exercises more courage, he will become a wise king."

The queen pondered and said: "Flick off your clothes when it's over, and hide your achievements and fame."Since your ambition is in the mountains and forests, the queen mother will never force you.Although I am reluctant to give up, I respect your choice. "

Thinking of what Gu Yunjing said before that he had persuaded Yi Wang Xiao Mian, the queen asked again: "Prince Yi is stubborn by nature, and he has a deep brotherly love with His Majesty. I have said it several times, my mother, and he is still indifferent. How did you He persuaded?"

Gu Yunjing replied: "Because I told Prince Yi all the ridiculous actions of His Majesty. Although he is stubborn by nature, he is not a stupid person. In fact, the priorities of things are clearer than us."

The queen thought about it, and hesitated a little: "Yizhou is close to the east border and adjacent to Beiming. Although there are [-] elite soldiers stationed, if they are withdrawn and these elite soldiers are sent to the capital, then the area of ​​Yizhou will be destroyed." It's not peaceful."

Gu Yunjing said lightly: "Prince Yi didn't plan to do this either. As long as he doesn't interfere with His Royal Highness An's ascension to the throne, that's enough."

The queen frowned: "Zhan'er's power is not as powerful as Xiao Cong's. Only the Imperial Forest Army and the Imperial Guard can be mobilized in the imperial court, but these troops are far from enough. Son-in-law, do you think we can compete with them?"

It's not that Queen Zhao doesn't trust Gu Yunjing's ability, but she's still a little worried.

"Mother, don't worry, I've already planned it." Gu Yunjing squeezed her thumb lightly, "But I can't reveal it yet."

Having said that, it is inconvenient for the queen to ask any more questions.After the carriage stopped in a remote place, Gu Yunjing walked out, put the cloak on his head, and quickly changed to a small sedan chair to return to the Hou's Mansion.

Gu Yunjing didn't go to the hall, but went to the side courtyard to meet Caiyue.

"My lord, what are your orders?"

"The Eight Riders in the Cloud that my father left behind should come in handy." Gu Yunjing took off his hood and took out a brown token, "Take the token and go to Zhuangzi quickly and call them return."

The so-called eight knights in the cloud are actually eight shadow guards with high martial arts skills, which Gu Wei has been secretly cultivating.When he left the capital, he knew that there would be a dark situation in the court, so he specially left eight dead soldiers to protect Gu Yunjing's safety.

Gu Yunjing would not easily use them unless it was a last resort.For the past two years, the eight riders in the cloud have been placed in a Zhuangzi on the outskirts of the city.Gu Yunjing doesn't know martial arts, but she knows Qimen Dunjia. It just so happens that she has been developing a new formation in the past two years, and this formation requires eight people to practice.

Therefore, the eight shadow guards have been practicing formations for her.In the entire Hou Mansion, only she and Caiyue knew about the existence of the Eight Riders in the Cloud.

After Caiyue collected the token, she hurried to the Zhuangzi outside the city.

After a while, Gu Yunjing returned to the room.Xiao Muxue asked in surprise: "Why did you come back so early today? It's rare that Brother An Wang is willing to worry about your body."

When the princess said this, she complained slightly.

Gu Yunjing smiled: "I didn't enter the palace, it's just that the queen mother came to talk to me about something."

"Why did the queen mother find you?"

The son-in-law frowned: "Of course it's for the birth of a child. Concubine An is already pregnant with Liujia, and the queen mother advises us to work hard and try to get pregnant as soon as possible."

Xiao Muxue was helpless: "Why are you pregnant?"

"Maybe if you work harder every day, you might get pregnant." Gu Yunjing squinted her eyes and said proudly.

"Since when did the son-in-law become so capable? Alright, don't be so talkative, why is the empress looking for you?"

"Do you really want to know?"

"of course."

"Actually, the queen mother already knows that I am a woman, and that's why she came to me."

Xiao Muxue's heart suddenly rose to her throat, and she hurriedly asked: "How did the queen mother know? Did she make things difficult for you?"

Gu Yunjing pursed her lips lightly, pretending to be very heavy on purpose: "Yes, but it's a big embarrassment for me. Her old man said that our marriage is a mess, and insisted that I leave you. If I don't If she does what she says, she will punish the Hou Mansion. So...Xue'er..."

After hearing this, Xiao Muxue, who had always been calm, turned red immediately: "No, I'm going to talk to the queen mother. How can she put pressure on you like this? You wait at home for news from me, and I will convince the queen mother no matter what."

Gu Yunjing asked: "What if you can't be persuaded?"

Xiao Muxue held Gu Yunjing's hand and said resolutely: "No one in this world can break us up. If we really can't be persuaded, then I will force you to die."

Gu Yunjing rubbed her red eyes, and suddenly burst out laughing: "I'm just kidding you. Instead of trying to break us up, the queen mother has always encouraged us to be together."

"You..." Xiao Muxue knocked her hand off, turned her head and ignored Gu Yunjing, "You are still kidding me about such an important matter, so ignore you. Hmph!"

Gu Yunjing pursed her mouth: "I'm not joking either. My mother did say so at the beginning, but later I persuaded her with my three-inch tongue, so she didn't bother to intervene in us anymore. thing."

"Okay, Xue'er, don't be angry anymore."

"No, no, no, my anger won't go away." Xiao Muxue folded her arms around her chest and shook her head one after another.

"Oh." Gu Yunjing said very innocently, then obediently stood by the wall.

"What are you doing standing there?"

"Thinking about the corner, who made me make Her Royal Highness angry." Gu Yunjing said aggrievedly, her slender eyelashes trembling, as if she had been wronged so much.

Xiao Muxue's heart softened, she slowly walked in front of Gu Yunjing, and pinched her cheek.Gu Yunjing's skin was as smooth as mutton fat jade, and it felt so good to the touch, Xiao Muxue couldn't put it down, she pinched and poked, poked and pinched again.

"Traveling" the son-in-law's cheek back and forth, the anger in her heart has been relieved a lot.Suddenly, as if thinking of something, she frowned, and her lips smiled: "Actually, there are many ways to make me not angry. You don't need to stand under the corner and think about it."

Gu Yunjing's eyes lit up: "What way?"

Xiao Muxue clung to her ear and said something softly.

After Gu Yunjing heard this, her fair cheeks flushed, "But...you are the one who married me."

"Do we have to divide who will marry who?"

"Xue'er...do you know what the active side should do?"

What the son-in-law meant was that the princess had been passive all along, and she might not have mastered the skills needed by the active side.How did she know that Xiao Muxue had read the little pornographic book, the princess actually had more skills than her.

"Is the son-in-law worried that I'm not skilled enough?"

Gu Yunjing asked back: "Could it be that you are very experienced?"

"You have to try this son-in-law to know." Xiao Muxue said playfully.In modern society, she has always regarded herself as Yujie, but because she mistakenly took Chun.Xin.Dong before, she needs to be a passive party in order to detoxify.But now that the toxin has been removed, she feels that it is necessary for her to taste the taste of the son-in-law.

"Well, since Xue'er is so interested, of course I can't bear to refuse. It's just that the active side needs to consume a lot of energy."

Xiao Muxue smiled lightly: "It's okay, I'm not afraid of being tired."

........................

Kangwang Mansion, the back garden has pleasant scenery and rippling pool water.There are many carps in the pond, and they are floating on the water and competing for food.

Huangfuyun threw the fish food into the water, a smile appeared on his gloomy face.His leisurely mood has dissipated for more than 20 years, and now it is reawakened.

When he walked out of the palace that day, Concubine De told his son Xiao Lian that he must treat Huangfu Yun as a guest of honor.King Kang is a dutiful son, he is very respectful to Huangfu Yun now, and ordered the servants in the mansion to respond to the old gentleman's request.

It is also because of this that Huangfuyun is living a very happy life now.In addition to analyzing the situation and making arrangements, I feed the fish, birds, and water the flowers every day.

Just as Huangfu Yun was enjoying himself, a woman's voice suddenly came from behind.

"Mr. is very elegant." Debi knew that Huangfuyun's identity could not be revealed now, so she would no longer call him Thirteenth Master, and directly changed her name to Mr. Huangfuyun.

Huangfuyun threw the last bit of bait into the pond, clapped his hands and put down his cuffs, and turned to look at Concubine De, "The truth is already so difficult, so let's take some leisure time to comfort my heart. Why are you here?"

"I'm here to report some things in the palace to you."

Huangfu Yun became interested: "Please go out of the palace and come to Kang Wang's mansion yourself, there must be something interesting happening in the palace."

"I fed the emperor medicine for a few days, and his condition has indeed improved. I accidentally saw his fingers move. But the queen visits Xiao Guan every day. I'm afraid she will see something sooner or later. What. You know what a clever woman she is."

"Zhao Wenge? Don't do anything, just send her on the road."

De Concubine was originally a killer, and in her opinion, killing people was nothing more than a trivial matter, and it couldn't be more common.Not to mention killing a queen, as long as Huangfu Yun is satisfied, Debi is willing to kill everyone in the world for him.

It's just that she is still a little confused. After all, the queen is not an ordinary person, she is the mother of a country. Killing the queen rashly may cause Xiao Zhan's attention.

"Now that we are weak, we should hide our whereabouts in secret. If we really attack the queen, I'm afraid the situation will be very unfavorable to us. I'm afraid Xiao Zhan will follow the clues and find out some clues..."

Huangfu Yun waved his hand and interrupted her words: "I have developed a new drug that kills people invisible, and those idiot imperial doctors in the palace will not see anything. You also live in the harem, so you should have the opportunity to contact the queen, Find a way to get rid of her."

"Oh, that's right. It's not enough to just get rid of her. By the way, get rid of that bitch, Concubine Li. It's fun to kill two birds with one stone."

De concubine has been with Huangfuyun for many years, she knows what the other party means, to get rid of the queen with the help of Concubine Li.
