Gong Yu was silent, Dai Ruyan gently pulled the quilt covering her face, but in the end Dai Ruyan seemed to stop again.

"You really don't want to come out?" Dai Ruyan hugged Gong Yu in his arms like a pillow.

"I'm sleepy."

Gong Yu, who has many years of experience, said how can one be without principles!

Unexpectedly, Dai Ruyan got into the quilt suddenly from the side, held Gong Yu's face with both hands and kissed it softly a few times, and said in a low voice: "Fool, who is better looking than a book?"

Gong Yu, who was kissed in a daze, did not expect that Dai Ruyan, who used to blush at the slightest words of love, is now proficient enough to be strong!

In front of him, Dai Ruyan pulled down the quilt lightly to reveal some light, and looked at Gong Yu with his eyebrows bent, the upward angle of his mouth was really charming.

Gong Yu hurriedly looked away and responded: "I said, I'm sleepy."

"Are you really sleepy?" Dai Ruyan gently pressed Gong Yu's cheek with his fingertips and asked softly.

"correct."

The hand resting on the cheek stopped, and Dai Ruyan withdrew his hand politely, lying on his side, very peaceful.

If there was no such obvious gaze, maybe Gong Yu would have really let down his vigilance.

After a while Gong Yu slowly opened her eyes, Dai Ruyan was very close, her breath fell lightly beside her ears.

The hall was very quiet, Gong Yu turned her head cautiously and saw Dai Ruyan approaching with a smile, lightly pressed her forehead against Gong Yu's cheek and said, "Are you awake?"

Gong Yu pursed her lips, looked at Dai Ruyan and complained, "Who told you to ignore me just now?"

Dai Ruyan leaned forward slightly, and kissed Gongyu's cheek in response: "Good boy, I don't like being disturbed by others when I'm reading, and I can't change my habit for many years."

"Then why are you disturbing my sleep again now?" Gong Yu moved a little away, imitating Dai Ruyan's words: "I don't like others to disturb me when I sleep, this is also a habit for many years."

"Little Nine..."

"what?"

Dai Ruyan looked at Gong Yu with a smile in his eyes, stretched out his arms to encircle Gong Yu, and whispered affectionately: "I am your wife, not someone else."

A large double-standard scene!

However, Gong Yu didn't struggle any more, she nestled in her arms obediently and responded: "Madam wants to be hugged and hugged, how can Madam only read books all day long?"

"Xiao Jiu thinks, am I not sure?" Dai Ruyan lowered his head and kissed Gong Yu's brow, but never moved away, as if it was lightly resting on the pads of his fingers.

These words are full of hints, Gong Yu blinked his eyes lightly to look at Dai Ruyan, reached out his hand to hold the hanging belt with malicious intentions and said: "Okay, then if I am a hunter tonight."

After finishing speaking, Gong Yu turned over and looked down at Dai Ruyan who was lying flat, lowered her head with a smile and kissed the brow of the next generation Ruyan, as if imitating Dai Ruyan's coaxing tone on weekdays: "Ayan wants Be obedient."

Dai Ruyan raised his hand to gently caress Gong Yu's cheek, his fingertips gently brushed the corner of Gong Yu's upturned mouth, quietly dropped to the side, and said meekly: "But Xiao Jiu will be very tired."

"I'm not tired, I'm very energetic now." Gong Yu responded lightly, tugging at her belt.

"But when you just finished your meal, you still said you didn't want to move." Dai Ruyan held Gong Yu's hand lightly in his palm.

Gong Yu held Dai Ruyan's hand and kissed the back of it, smiled with eyebrows bent, clinging to Dai Ruyan's ear and said: "But I'm hungry now, isn't A Yan willing?"

Dai Ruyan pursed her thin lips slightly, and called out with reddish cheeks: "Xiao Jiu..."

"Huh?" Gong Yu stopped, pretending that nothing happened.

"You... just turn off the candlestick lights."

Gong Yu looked down at Dai Ruyan and said seriously: "A Yan like that is very beautiful, I want to take a closer look."

Dai Ruyan looked at Gong Yu helplessly, reached out and picked up the quilt beside her to cover Gong Yu and said in a low voice: "Don't look at it..."

"Ayan, I can't breathe..."

"Ayan..."

Hesitation flashed in his eyes, and Dai Ruyan's hand holding the quilt loosened a lot. Gong Yu emerged from the quilt, looked at Dai Ruyan with bright eyes, and lightly held the red tie with his fingertips.

Dai Ruyan's eyes darkened a lot, he stretched out his arms to embrace Gong Yu, and said helplessly, "Don't mess around, you have to go to court tomorrow morning."

Gong Yu leaned closer and lightly pecked Dai Ruyan's cheeks a few times, and replied in a low voice: "But I've thought about it for a long time."

Probably the pitiful appearance of the little rabbit finally impressed the hunter.

"Then you... hurry up." Dai Ruyan let go of his hands and responded.

"Good."

In the middle of the night, the wind and snow whistled, shaking the closed doors and windows of the temple, but it couldn't cover up the constant chants overflowing from the hall.

When the night's wind and snow stopped, it was already twilight outside the window, and when Dai Ruyan woke up slowly, the candles in the candlestick were about to burn out.

When she moved her arms a little, someone in her arms was sleeping soundly with half of her face buried in the quilt, and Dai Ruyan couldn't move any more, so she had to lie flat.

Dai Ruyan lowered his head slightly, and lightly probed the bedding with his fingertips, only to see that Gong Yu was breathing steadily, and the deep-sleeping lip dimples still felt a bit fleshy when his fingertips were touched lightly.

Whenever Gong Yu tightens her lips tightly, the dimples are very obvious, just looking at her like this always makes Dai Ruyan want to get closer to her.

It's just that most of the time, Dai Ruyan just watched quietly, at most stretched out his hand to touch lightly, and then withdrew his hand.

Or Dai Ruyan stayed with his fingertips for a long time, and Gong Yu felt uncomfortable, so she buried her head slightly deeper.

Dai Ruyan had no choice but to withdraw her hand, and her arms were slightly clenched, as if she could bring Gong Yu closer.

There is no sound everywhere, it is most suitable for snoozing, when Gong Yu wakes up, the hall is already brightly lit.

And Dai Ruyan beside him was already dressed and sitting on a low couch drinking tea and reading a book, the chain connecting the two of them was hanging down alone.

Gong Yu lay down and looked at the peaceful Dai Ruyan, and suddenly remembered that every time she got close, Dai Ruyan was always far away from her. This feeling is really a bit cold and heartless.

But thinking about Dai Ruyan's charming appearance with a blushing face last night, this indifference to Gong Yu is still acceptable, even if Gong Yu wants to be careful, he must give it.

It's just that Dai Ruyan didn't prepare any clothes today, Gong Yu looked at the robes that had fallen far away and couldn't help but whispered in embarrassment: "Ayan..."

Dai Ruyan, who was drinking tea, looked at Gong Yu lightly, and Gong Yu hurriedly wrapped herself in the bedding and said with a smile, "Where did my robe go?"

At the critical moment, you still have to rely on your acting skills!

However, Dai Ruyan just glanced lightly and then looked at the book again, yes, there was absolutely no intention of pity and pity.

But the problem is that Dai Ruyan's clothes should have been thrown farther last night.

Seeing that the beauty ignored her, Gong Yu had no choice but to wrap herself in the bedding, jumping around like a little rabbit.

Fortunately, there was no one in the hall, otherwise it would really be a shame if it got out?

Dai Ruyan looked at Gong Yu who stretched out his hand to pick up the robe, put down the book helplessly, and walked in front of Gong Yu.

"Who told you to throw it around last night?" Dai Ruyan picked up the pieces.

Gong Yu jumped aside and said with a smile, "I don't know either."

"Still laughing?"

Dai Ruyan looked at Gong Yu very seriously, and then put the robe on the bed, Gong Yu sat on the side and leaned closer to rub Dai Ruyan's face sideways and said: "But it was Ayan who wanted to relieve me last night. ..."

The oncoming robe landed on Gong Yu's face, Gong Yu stretched out her hand to push it away in a daze, only to see Dai Ruyan's cheeks flushed and said: "Don't say it."

"Okay, I won't talk anymore." Gong Yu responded with a mouthful of white teeth.

Dai Ruyan pinched Gong Yu's cheek and said in a low voice, "You're still smiling so happily?"

Gong Yu suddenly felt that Dai Ruyan's mood was a little abnormal today, and this smile was actually inaccurate.

"It's already too early, do you know?" Dai Ruyan got up and put down Shawei, looked at Gong Yu with a blank face and said, "Put on your robe quickly."

"Oh."

I saw Dai Ruyan put down the gauze, and then returned to the low couch.

It is really difficult for this thin gauze to block what he is doing, but Dai Ruyan has a thin skin, and Gong Yu can only cooperate.

After changing into her robes, Gong Yu washed up a little, and the two of them, Ruyan, had a meal.

Dai Ruyan has reviewed most of the memorials on the side, so one can imagine how early Dai Ruyan started.

Gong Yu looked at Dai Ruyan while holding the fish soup, and looked at the red seal with satisfaction.

Dai Ruyan looked at Gong Yu suspiciously with a wooden spoon in his hand and asked, "What are you doing looking at me like this?"

"Of course it's because Ayan is pretty."

"Poor mouth." Dai Ruyan avoided Gong Yu's direct gaze, and sipped the porridge.

But Gong Yu found that Dai Ruyan's fair and tender face was turning red little by little, and couldn't help sighing, it was really Ayan who was the best to flirt with.

Unlike other personalities, if they don't agree with each other, they will see a knife. Gong Yu then thought about Dai Ruyan's sudden return.

Why did Ayan recover all of a sudden?

More importantly, has Ah Yan realized that the sister she thought was actually not her sister?

Thinking of this, Gong Yu inexplicably felt a severe headache, sighed inadvertently, and Dai Ruyan, who was opposite him, asked inexplicably, "What's wrong?"

Gong Yu shook her head and replied, "It's fine."

"Really okay?"

"Well, I just want to miss the early court, and those ministers may start thinking behind their backs again."

On behalf of Ru Yansheng, he gave some pork rib soup and handed it to Gong Yu, comforting him, "I announced the winter hunting event on behalf of Xiao Jiu this morning. I think they are busy guessing what kind of conspiracy is in it right now."

"So Xiao Jiu doesn't have to worry."

Gong Yu stretched out her hands to take the soup bowl, ate the well-cooked pork ribs and took a sip of the soup in satisfaction and said, "That's right, they are all waiting for me to collapse now."

"Is this soup good?"

"Well, it's delicious."

Dai Ruyan held the wooden spoon in his hand and saw Gong Yu's brows stretched out, and then he eased a lot and said in a low voice: "This soup contains a lot of nourishing herbs, Xiao Jiu can drink more if he likes it."

This...wouldn't be the feeling of being forced to feed again!

Gong Yu looked at the soup on the side, and said hesitantly: "I can't eat so much."

"It's okay, Xiao Jiu can drink slowly."

Hey?

What I'm most afraid of is Dai Ruyan's gentle persuasion, basically Gong Yu doesn't even know how to say no.

After the meal, Gong Yu reviewed the memorial and looked at the edict issued by Dai Ruyan for winter hunting.

Although not quite sure of Dai Ruyan's purpose, Gong Yu could still more or less guess that Dai Ruyan wanted to use force to coerce the officials to participate in this battle.

After all, time is short, and persuasion is useless. Gong Yu specially arranged a lot of hidden guards to guard the winter hunting place just to be on the safe side, in order to prevent chaos at that time.

While checking the rest of the memorial, Gong Yu suddenly discovered that Chu Feixun had asked to accompany him on the expedition.

This is really the first such a strange character.

But when he thought that he was a member of Gong Ling, Gong Yu felt that there was something tricky about it.

Dai Ruyan was sitting on the side flipping through the book, when the parrot hanging high suddenly said: "Ayan...Ayan..."

Gong Yu looked at the parrot in surprise, but Dai Ruyan looked at Gong Yu sideways.

"not me!"

"I know." Dai Ruyan smiled and flipped through the book, "Were you just in a daze?"

"I'm wondering what this Chu Feixun is plotting."

Dai Ruyan took a closer look at the memorial in Gong Yu's hand, his eyes responded with a slight flash of murderous intent: "Xiao Jiu will be sure of this matter."

Hey?

"Don't Ayan think he has some other purpose?" Gong Yu looked at the memorial and said with a frown.

"I'm afraid he doesn't have a purpose." Dai Ruyan raised his hand to lightly touch Gong Yu's frown, and then slowly withdrew his hand.

Gong Yu looked at Dai Ruyan puzzled and said, "What is Ayan thinking?"

Dai Ruyan stared at Gong Yu's bright eyes and smiled and asked, "Don't Xiao Jiu know what I'm thinking?"

How to answer this?

Just when Gong Yu was in a dilemma, Dai Ruyan held the book and tapped Gong Yu's forehead and said, "Don't read, after the memorial is finished, Xiao Jiu will ride a horse with me to enjoy the snow."

"Oh."

In the afternoon, the two of them left the palace together. Because no one came to train in the racecourse, the white snow fell quietly.

Gong Yu proposed to ride a horse together, and Dai Ruyan readily agreed.

The field of vision in the racecourse is wide, but in winter it is all white, and I feel a little tired looking at it, it is not as interesting as peeking at the beauties beside me.

"I haven't ridden a horse for a long time, so don't be unfamiliar with Xiaojiu."

Dai Ruyan turned his head suddenly, Gong Yu hurriedly retracted his gaze and responded: "Don't worry, my former master praised me for my riding skills."

"That was also in the past. If you are really forced to go to war, you can't be careless."

The words suddenly became serious, Gong Yu looked at Dai Ruyan's frowning brows, tightened her arms, lowered her head and stuck to Dai Ruyan's cheek and said: "Don't be afraid, if the battle situation is still optimistic, the emperor's own conquest is not the case." .”

Dai Ruyan leaned against Gong Yu, suddenly tilted her head and kissed Gong Yu's side face, and said seriously: "I'm not afraid."

"As long as Xiaojiu is fine, nothing else matters"

"I will." Gong Yu agreed, and then kissed back openly.

"It's just that it's difficult now, so it's difficult to worry about internally." Dai Ruyan said helplessly looking at Gong Yu who was stealing a relationship.

"Yeah, I'm afraid that Ayan will be in danger if she stays alone in the palace."

When the cold wind was blowing, Gong Yu tightly surrounded Dai Ruyan, and Dai Ruyan gently held Gong Yu's hand and whispered, "They won't attack me first."

Gong Yu rubbed against Dai Ruyan and responded: "To prevent accidents, it's better to release the false news that Ayan is pregnant."

"What does Xiao Jiu want to do?"

"In this way, if there is any accident, they can't blatantly seize power, at least they can take their reputation into account."

Dai Ruyan looked at Gong Yu with a very serious expression, and Gong Yu panicked a little cautiously.

Gong Yu hurriedly changed her words and said, "I said something wrong."

"Stop talking nonsense... Accident, you know?"

"Oh, I see."

The two fell silent for a while, Dai Ruyan leaned against Gong Yu and said nothing.

Gong Yu felt annoyed in her heart that she had just blurted out such a surprise.

The sound of the horse's hooves stepping on the snow was a little unstable, Gong Yu couldn't get distracted, and held the reins tightly to control it.

Ever since she fell from the horse last time, in fact Gong Yu has somewhat of a psychological shadow on the horse.

"Everything has not yet been determined, and it is not too late to make a decision on what can be harvested from the winter hunting tomorrow." Dai Ruyan said softly.

Gong Yu tightly wrapped her cloak around the two of them and replied, "Yes."

Dai Ruyan listened to Gong Yu's slow heartbeat, and suddenly said: "Did I embarrass Xiao Jiu?"

"It's nothing." Gong Yu stopped the horse, hugged Dai Ruyan lightly and said, "Someone was restless, and I failed to protect Ayan, so this time I have to think about it no matter what. Guard Ayan."

"Then Xiao Jiu cannot go hunting tomorrow."

"why?"

Dai Ruyan looked sideways at Gong Yuying and said, "We need to hold them accountable so that they can be calm and obedient."

Gong Yu looked at Dai Ruyan puzzled and asked, "Aren't you going to tell me the plan?"

"Well, I don't want Xiao Jiu to know." Dai Ruyan said while blinking her eyes lightly.

Well, what Dai Ruyan doesn't want Gong Yu to know, it is really impossible for Gong Yu to know from other channels.

The horse walked very slowly, Dai Ruyan looked away as if lost in deep thought, and Gong Yu was inconvenient to interrupt.

In the soft snow, there are strings of footprints guessed by horseshoes. In winter, the sky is surprisingly blank. Gong Yu looked around and never saw a single bird.

It's just that when the snow suddenly fell, it happened to fall on Gong Yu's face, and it was a little cold.

Dai Ruyan came back to her senses, stretched her arms to lightly catch the quietly falling snowflakes and said in a low voice, "This year's message will end soon."

Gong Yu looked at Dai Ruyan and asked, "Does Ayan like snow?"

"It's not like I like it, I just think the snow is very clean."

This expression is very flat, as if Gong Yu has never heard Dai Ruyan say that she has any favorite things after knowing each other for so many years, only one time Dai Ruyan half-jokingly said that she likes herself.

Dai Ruyan approached Gong Yu and asked, "What is Xiao Jiu thinking?"

Gong Yu came back to her senses and said, "I'm wondering if Ayan likes me, does she like anything else?"

"Probably not." Dai Ruyan responded with a smile.

"Hey, then I'm not very precious."

"Well, Xiao Jiu is indispensable to me."

As Dai Ruyan said, she raised her head and stared at Gong Yu, her cool palm pressed against Gong Yu's cheek, her gaze was gentle as if it could melt the severe cold of this winter.

Gong Yu didn't expect Dai Ruyan to respond so directly, and replied a little shyly: "Ayan is also a very important person."

"Little Nine..."

"Ok?"

Dai Ruyan smiled and leaned closer to kiss Gongyu's pale lips that were frozen and said in a low voice, "You are my baby."

It seems that because of Dai Ruyan's words, the head shut down and restarted directly.

Gong Yu stared blankly at Dai Ruyan in the snow, smiled triumphantly and approached: "Ayan, say it again?"

Before the words finished, Dai Ruyan's fingertips gently pinched the earlobe, Dai Ruyan followed Gong Yu with a smile, and said with thin lips: "Little villain."

"Say it again."

"Do not want to."

"Ayan..."

"It's cold, let's go back to the palace."

When the wind and snow got bigger and bigger, they covered up the conversation between the two people.

The next day during the winter hunt, Gong Yu just watched from the sidelines on the pretext of typhoid fever. All the people who came to participate were hereditary marquises, each of whom had hoarded a lot of money and soldiers.

The sound of gongs and drums sounded, Gong Yu saw these people riding horses determined to step into the forest, and couldn't help asking curiously: "What kind of objects did Ayan set up?"

Dai Ruyan was dressed in a fine attire, and her makeup was delicate and attractive, but it was a pity that she looked more and more cold, and Gong Yu somehow felt a little stressed.

"It's just a gold medal for avoiding death."

Gold Medal for Avoidance!

Is this a little too casual?

Gong Yu took a sip of the tea and said, "This death-preserving gold medal is only reserved for the late emperor, three yuan."

"Xiao Jiu is reluctant?"

"Nothing, I'm just thinking that if the gold medal for avoiding death is given to them, wouldn't it give them more confidence?"

Dai Ruyan was sitting upright, and because he was wearing complicated accessories, he couldn't turn his head sideways, so he had to put his hand lightly on the back of Gong Yu's hand and replied: "The left and right are gold medals. If you say it’s not, then it’s not, can Xiao Jiu understand?”

Gong Yu shook her head and leaned slightly closer to ask, "Didn't Ah Yan want to give them all..."

"The card was wiped?"

I'm afraid that the aristocratic families in the capital city are really going to rebel.

Dai Ruyan poked Gong Yu's palm lightly with her fingertips, and replied solemnly: "If it can be solved so easily, I don't mind."

amount……

Nowadays, Ruyan is so straightforward in front of her?

Gong Yu was slightly taken aback, only to see Dai Ruyan explain: "What I want is to hold them hostage, not to take their heads off, besides, they are still useful."

"Does Xiao Jiu think that I can't treat winter hunting as a hunting?"

"It's nothing, I just...just ask." Gong Yu explained with a smile.

This may or may not be an illusion, after all, A Yan is not one of those two personalities.

After the hunting was over, the gold medal for avoiding death was awarded, and the banquet was over at night, and the winter hunting was silent.

As a bystander from the beginning to the end, Gong Yu couldn't see anything wrong.

The only difference is that the fifth and sixth emperor brothers did not come to participate in the hunt.

On New Year's Eve, there used to be a lot of people in the palace, so it was also lively to watch.

Now even if Gong Yu holds a family banquet, it will not be able to make a table, not to mention that in order to save money, everything is kept simple.

It's freezing cold in winter, it's rare that there is no early morning, and Gong Yu is sleeping soundly in the quilt.

Not wanting Dai Ruyan to tear off the quilt suddenly, a piece of warm handkerchief fell accurately on Gong Yu's face.

Gong Yu, who was in a deep sleep, felt as if she had suddenly fallen into the bottom of the sea, and this increasingly real sense of suffocation made Gong Yu wake up suddenly.

Reaching out to take down the wet handkerchief, Gong Yu saw Dai Ruyan sitting beside him, and said helplessly, "Ayan, didn't you have an early morning today?"

Dai Ruyan reached out to take the handkerchief from Gong Yu's hand, wiped Gong Yu's face and said, "Then you have to have breakfast before going to bed."

"Can't I skip breakfast?"

"No."

Gong Yu really wanted to cry without tears, she slumped in the bedding and said, "Maybe there will be many things to worry about after New Year's Eve, let me sleep for a while today."

"Hey, get up and eat first, otherwise the food will be cold again."

"Ayan..."

"Ah."

"I'll sleep a little longer, okay?"

"No." Dai Ruyan stretched his arms around Gong Yu, picked up the outer robe on the side and covered Gong Yu's body, and said, "There is an urgent report from the frontier in the morning, don't you want to read it?"

Gong Yu opened her eyes in a daze, and her consciousness became much clearer. She responded, "What happened?"

"Sangguo's soldiers have provoked one after another, and the letter of challenge has already been handed over."

"Let me see."

Dai Ruyan got up, picked it up from the low table and handed it to Gong Yu's palm and said, "Look."

Gong Yu couldn't help but get angry when she opened the document, the war letter from the Sangsu Kingdom was too arrogant.

"In the past, the palace country was powerful, so the small border countries naturally didn't dare. But now the palace country has gone through natural and man-made disasters, and now it is in devastation, and everyone wants to carve it up."

"Fortunately, the firearms battalion has been transported to the front line. As long as there is no chaos in the palace, at least it can last for a short time."

Dai Ruyan tightened the handkerchief and wiped Gong Yu's face, saying: "Once the war starts, if anyone with a heart spreads rumors, the palace will be chaotic sooner or later."

Gong Yu pursed her lips tightly, and said with a serious expression: "I have enacted a lot of crimes about spreading rumors, but there are still people who keep prosecuting them repeatedly. It is obvious that someone is secretly causing trouble."

"Xiao Jiu, do you know what is the cause of the death of the princess of Sangjiao Kingdom?" Dai Ruyan asked after pausing to wipe Gong Yu's cheek.

Gong Yu was taken aback for a moment, since A Yan had never mentioned Qing Yun since she came back, this was the first time.

"According to reports from the subordinates, there is only one skeleton left of her."

"She should have been thrown into the fish pond."

Dai Ruyan tied the clothes on Gong Yu's behalf, frowning slightly in response: "At that time, someone was secretly watching all this."

"Qingyun...wasn't Ah Yan someone to deal with?" Gong Yu asked hesitantly:

"No." Dai Ruyan held Gong Yu lightly in his palm and responded, "Perhaps the princess of Sanggu Kingdom was thrown into the fish pond by Gong Ling."

Gong Ling?

"Then how did she know about the dark room?"

Dai Ruyan shook his head and said, "Maybe it's a secret work in the courtyard, but I haven't been able to find out."

Gong Yu looked at Dai Ruyan's thoughtful expression, and couldn't help but recall that Qingyun brought Gong Yu to the dark room as if she was very familiar.

"Maybe Zhen Gongyu told her, and it's not necessarily true."

"what?"

"Didn't Zhen Gongyu once steal A Yan's map, then maybe she discovered this dark room by accident, and she was also close to the sixth brother Gong Liang, so if Gong Liang knew it, then Gong Ling might know it too. "

Dai Ruyan thought about it and replied: "Gong Yu was so young at that time, if he was provoked by His Highness the Sixth Highness, it would be possible."

Regarding Qing Yun's death, Gong Yu was actually a bit strange, after all, Dai Ruyan was holding a sword, but Qing Yun died in that piranha pond.

Could it be that Gong Ling also heard Qingyun's threats back then?

How much happened that night.

At night on New Year's Eve, the palace is very lively, fireworks are lit up from time to time, Gong Yu looks at Dai Ruyan, who is opposite, eating sliced ​​meat from the small stove.

Although the border has already started a war, the prosperity will not end all at once, at least just like the war back then, the people in the capital enjoy the peace in this troubled world.

Gong Yu looked sideways at the gorgeous fireworks and sighed: "I always feel that the sound of the fireworks is like the sound of artillery fire from the border, which is a bit disturbing."

Dai Ruyan held the soup bowl in his hand and sipped and said, "The border is thousands of miles away from the capital of Gongguo, how can Xiaojiu hear it?"

"Maybe I'm overthinking it."

"Little Nine..."

"Huh?" Gong Yu responded with a meatball.

"If the battle situation on the front line is not good, and the common people are displaced and ask to abolish the empress, what will you do?" Dai Ruyan looked at Gong Yu and asked in a low voice.

Gong Yu paused and responded: "I will not abolish the empress."

"But if it really comes to that point, it must be that the emperor is not good enough, and it will be the emperor who wants to be abolished."

"Xiao Jiu, you don't have to cover me like this."

"This is not covering up." Gong Yuman said seriously: "If Qingyun is still alive, Ayan is also very dangerous, she knows Ayan..."

The words stopped abruptly, because Gong Yu didn't know how to explain about Dai Ruyan's mental state.

On the opposite side, Dai Ruyan's eyes flickered slightly, but he still sipped the fish soup quietly, and asked in a low voice, "Does Xiaojiu think I'm just sick?"

Gong Yu looked at Dai Ruyan hesitantly, and responded with a slight grip on the wooden spoon: "Well, I believe it will gradually get better in the future."

"What if it doesn't get better?"

"It's okay, then I'll take good care of Ayan, as long as Ayan doesn't make mistakes."

Dai Ruyan blinked her ink-like eyes and said softly, "Silly, you should just avoid me."

"why?"

"Because I'm afraid I'll hurt Xiao Jiu."

Gong Yu shook her head and responded: "No, Ayan has always been very kind to me."

"Although sometimes she is a little fierce, but she is still very good to me."

It was rare that Gong Yu didn't go to bed early that night, the two of them sat on the low couch by the window, the candlelight in the hall was bright and warm.

Gong Yu, on the other hand, held a pen in his hand to write down words of blessing for the soldiers who were fighting bloody battles in the distance.

Gong Yu felt guilty and uneasy for taking this battle because of her willfulness, so everything was just to bring this war to an early end.

After the winter hunting, the situation in the court didn't change much, the only difference was that the Taifu's party seemed to have settled down suddenly.

When the envoys of the Sangrui kingdom made troubles earlier, the Taifu murmured that the abolished empress was the most powerful.

After going to the Shangyuan Festival, the war is still deadlocked at the border, which is probably considered good news.

It's just that the longer the war, the greater the casualties. Countless medicinal materials, food and grass were transported to the front line. Obviously, the ministers in the court were also trying to figure out how many soldiers Gong Yu had raised.

In fact, Gong Yu himself didn't know how many soldiers and horses he had. Dai Ruyan had full control over Gong Yu's deployment of soldiers and horses. Only Gong Yu would give them to Dai Ruyan if he wanted them, but he never told Gong Yu how many soldiers and horses he had.

Probably this is to let Gong Yu have no worries.

The ministers in the court stood still, waiting for Gong Yu to show a state of anxiety, so as to catch him off guard.

So no matter how much she cared about the frontline battle, Gong Yu couldn't show her emotions every morning, as if she was acting in a play. This was a competition between the emperor and the ministers.

In the early spring, when the snow melted, it was the coldest, and Gong Yu contracted the wind and cold, so Dai Ruyan forced her to drink tonic every day.

When the wind and cold recovered, the tonics arranged by Dai Ruyan never stopped.

After reviewing the memorial in the afternoon, Gong Yu got up and the chain stretched from his wrist, while Dai Ruyan sat aside and read the book.

When sitting opposite, Gong Yu stretched out his hand to pick up the pastry on the side and ate it on his own. His eyes fell on the jade pendant worn by Dai Ruyan and he asked, "Ah Yan, what's the use of this jade pendant?"

"It's just used to dispatch some people."

"I heard that my elder brother is going to marry a wife tomorrow, are you going to the banquet with me?"

Dai Ruyan put down the book in his hand, looked at Gong Yu in front of him and said, "I'll go, Xiao Jiu can stay in the palace."

"But I heard that many ministers were invited to this banquet. If I don't go, wouldn't it be too disrespectful to my brother?"

"Xiao Jiu, do you want to leave the palace?" Dai Ruyan asked Gong Yu's euphemism bluntly.

Gong Yu nodded in response: "I want to go out of the palace to see what the common people think about this war."

"Whether I win or lose this battle, I have already ruined Xiao Jiu's reputation."

"Isn't this what the person who secretly designed wanted?"

Anyway, it is to ruin Gong Yu's reputation, and it is best to force Gong Yu to be torn from the position of emperor.

Dai Ruyan looked at Gong Yu with a serious expression and said, "But I don't like this."

"Xiao Jiu should be a wise ruler, not a stupid ruler who is talked about by the people because of me."

Gong Yu approached, stretched her arms to hug Dai Ruyan and comforted him: "Don't be angry, I don't care, Ayan, don't blame yourself anymore."

Presumably that person must have known that Ayan obviously cared about Gongyu the most, so he made such a blatant attack, but Dai Ruyan was unable to fight back directly because he was concerned about Gongyu's reputation.

"Ayan, let's go out of the palace together tomorrow." Gong Yu put some distance away and said, "No matter what they say, we can just do what we should do."

Even if he can't fight back, he must not let that person hold Dai Ruyan.

At the wedding banquet the next day, Gong Yu's attendance really shocked many people.

At the banquet, Gong Yu was not surprised to see Gong Liang and Gong Ling, drinking and drinking, and the guests were very lively.

Dai Ruyan always has such an attractive gaze, Gong Yu looks sideways at Dai Ruyan's calm response to everyone's gaze, it seems that Dai Ruyan seems to have gotten used to it all these years.

Entering the table, Gong Yu and Gong Liang's eyes intertwined, neither of them opened their mouths to speak.

On the contrary, Gong Ling was as bold and enthusiastic as usual, chatting and laughing with Dai Ruyan, his eyes glued to Dai Ruyan eagerly.

Gong Liang drank the wine on his own, his gaze sometimes resting on Dai Ruyan beside Gong Yu.

After the two left the table, the carriage shook slightly, Gong Yu looked closely at Dai Ruyan and said: "My elder brother is nearly thirty, and he married the eldest daughter of Lord Chu Fei, who is only eighteen years old. .”

Dai Ruyan leaned her head lightly against Gong Yu and said: "Marriages between aristocratic and powerful families are only beneficial, so how can you guess these things?"

"Besides, at sixty, you can still take concubines. Doesn't Xiao Jiu think it's even more strange?"

"Hey, this man is really more greedy than the other."

"Why do you say that?"

Gong Yu noticed that Dai Ruyan's mood was a bit depressed, so she eased her mood and said: "Look at a man, at least he has to have six or seven concubines. It is said that women should stick to one concubine, but they have never asked men to follow rules. unfair."

"Then Xiaojiu said that, do you know what those women who are concubines are thinking?"

"I do not know?"

Dai Ruyan was a little tired and whispered in Gong Yu's arms: "Women in the palace country depend on men for their livelihood. If men don't take concubines, these women will probably live even more bitterly."

Gong Yu tightened her arms and said, "That's why women should be self-reliant."

"How did Xiao Jiu suddenly understand so much?"

"I just feel that it's a good thing that Ayan met me, otherwise, if another man dared to accept a concubine, wouldn't he be angry at Ayan."

"Not necessarily."

Hey?

Dai Ruyan lightly pressed Gong Yu's cheek with her fingertips, leaned forward slightly, kissed the corner of Gong Yu's mouth and responded softly: "If I choose a man, maybe he won't have the possibility to take a concubine."

These words are inexplicably murderous!

Gong Yu lowered her head and kissed Dai Ruyan back, looking at Dai Ruyan's exquisite makeup with bright eyes, and smelled the fragrance closely: "Ayan's makeup today is so beautiful."

"Like it?"

"Yes, I like it."

Dai Ruyan poked Gong Yu's cheek lightly with her fingertips and said, "I don't have any fragrance on me."

"I know." Gong Yu rubbed Dai Ruyan's cheek with her nose and replied, "But I still like to smell it."

"I've been thinking about it since just now, but so many people like to stare at Ayan, I don't like it at all."

"Jealous?"

"Well, Ah Yan smells it, I smell strongly of vinegar."

Dai Ruyan wrapped her arms around Gong Yu and shook her head in disgust, saying: "No."

"Ayan, does this despise me?" Gong Yu said pitifully, while leaning closer.

"But even if Ayan dislikes me, I still like Ayan very much."

"Why is your mouth so sweet today?"

Taking advantage of Dai Ruyan's unpreparedness, Gong Yu kissed him a few more times, and replied with a proud smile: "I'm very sweet every day, don't you like it, Ayan?"

Dai Ruyan's mood seemed to have slowed down a lot, and he lightly touched Gong Yu's brow with his fingertips and said in a low voice, "I like it."

Although the carriage was a little dark, Gong Yu could still feel Dai Ruyan's gaze fixed on Gong Yu.

"Little Nine..."

"Ok?"

"I like everything about Xiao Jiu, just like Xiao Jiu
