Bright Spring

Zhang Sheng said: "I accept the decree."

Zhu Gaoxu turned his head, looked at Yao Fang and said coldly: "You have to remember, there won't be a third time."

Yao Fang said: "I thank the emperor for his kindness! If you commit another crime, you will not dirty the hands of the Holy One."

Zhu Gaoxu glanced at Zhang Sheng.Zhang Sheng bowed and left the room.

"Get up." Zhu Gaoxu raised his hand.Yao Fang thanked her, struggled to get up from the ground, bent over and stood on the ground with shackles.

There was a moment of silence in the room.After a while, Zhu Gaoxu finally said, "I've heard about you from Wang Gui."

In his heart, Zhu Gaoxu actually understood Yao Fang's feelings.The things he encountered in his previous life were not the same as those of Yao Fang, but he was indeed hurt deeply by his girlfriend, and his emotions at that time were difficult to adjust.

Yao Fang raised her head, looked at Zhu Gaoxu with an admiring and friendly look, and asked, "My lord, what should I do about such a thing?"

Zhu Gaoxu said calmly: "You, Yao Fang, have also practiced in Jinyiwei for many years, do you still need to teach?"

Yao Fang was a little embarrassed, and said: "Yes, I was fascinated and confused for a while." He sighed and said: "It's too unbearable, it's really hard to let go, I have given up my mind, and I don't care about too many things. Later, thinking of betraying the trust of the Holy Majesty, I regretted it at that time."

"Regret is the most useless thing." Zhu Gaoxu said.

Zhu Gaoxu observed Yao Fang's expression for a while, and saw that he was very distressed and confused.For some reason, Zhu Gaoxu blamed Yao Fang in his heart, but still felt a little close to him.

Zhu Gaoxu couldn't help saying a few more words, and his tone was more calm: "Now it's the rules set by the husband, and you can still make the children's affair like this, I am quite convinced of you."

As he spoke, he slandered: The control of women in this era is submissive, and he always feels uneasy; but now, he feels a lot more relaxed.Those assassins were not only captured and eliminated, but they also had a certain amount of luck in their success, so they weren't that scary!

As soon as Zhu Gaoxu walked outside Qianqing Palace, he saw the eunuch Cao Fu bowing up.Because Cao Fu had found women for Zhu Gaoxu many times, so when Zhu Gaoxu saw him coming to the Qianqing Palace at night, he guessed his purpose.

The imperial palace of the Ming Dynasty did not have a "respect room". The emperor neither flipped his cards, nor did he follow the rules of Zhou Li and his concubines taking turns sleeping (Zhou Li had to visit his concubines every night, and sometimes one night The rule is that there are dozens of imperial daughters, and the body of an ordinary person can't stand it); so usually the emperor will sleep with whomever he likes.

The eunuch who is responsible for notifying the concubine to prepare is often the eunuch on duty.The eunuchs trusted by the emperors, no matter what their positions are, as long as they have obtained the imperial edict, they can be responsible for preparing.

Cao Fu, the Shangshan eunuch, seemed to be very dedicated to this matter.He came up at this time and bowed: "My lord, the servants have heard the report, all the palaces are lit, waiting for the lord."

Zhu Gaoxu smiled, looking back at the maids on duty inside and outside Qianqing Palace, he clapped his hands and said: "It's getting late, so I don't need to call them tonight. I see that these maids are pretty good-looking, let them all come in and take off their clothes .”

Cao Fu was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said: "Your maid obeys the order."

Qianqing Palace has the most maids on duty, and there are about dozens of people on duty at night.Some maids standing at the door had already heard Zhu Gaoxu's words, and several of them blushed quickly.There are also court ladies peeking at Zhu Gaoxu quietly.

But Zhu Gaoxu felt that almost none of them wanted to.Most of the maids in the palace cannot leave the palace for the rest of their lives, and it is a good thing to be blessed by the emperor.

Zhu Gaoxu walked into the bedroom and sat on a big chair.After a while, a group of court ladies came forward and saluted one after another: "Your servants are waiting to kowtow to the Holy Majesty."

"Stay flat." After Zhu Gaoxu finished speaking, he looked at each of them with great interest.

There are many candles on the lamp stand in the bedroom, the light is bright, and the surrounding things can be seen more clearly; but it is more hazy than during the day.The light is just right, not only can see things clearly, but also can cover some too small flaws, the women seem to be more beautiful.

A group of unselected court ladies are of course far less beautiful than Zhu Gaoxu's wives and concubines; but fortunately, they are all younger, and they are fat and thin, and they have all shapes and shapes.Women's bodies are all similar in appearance, but they feel different, and the difference is huge, only men can understand.Zhu Gaoxu felt that he was breathing faster, and his mood became better and better for a while.

He suddenly remembered what Shen Xu had said.Shen Xu said: The prince looks dignified and polite, but there are some things he does that are unavoidable!

Zhu Gaoxu felt that Shen Xu was right, he was really that kind of person.

At this time, he also remembered what happened to Yao Fang, and he didn't feel embarrassed when he started to do things.He muttered to himself: "The flowers are blooming and must be broken. When you are not broken, someone will help..."

"Puchi!" Suddenly a court lady laughed out loud, maybe she was someone who had read some books.She hastily suppressed her smile, bent her knees and said, "Your Majesty please punish me for your disrespect."

Zhu Gaoxu shook his head and smiled: "It's okay, it's okay, you don't need to be too restrained at this time, otherwise it would be boring! Anyone who can't accept it can go now, I forgive him for his innocence."

There were dozens of people and no one said anything, but most of them buried their heads in embarrassment.

The night outside the palace was as cold and clear as water, but the atmosphere inside the palace was very fiery|hot and warm.

Chapter 629 The End of Spring

When Zhu Gaoxu woke up early the next morning, he found himself alone on the big bed.The maids and eunuchs on duty in the bedroom have been changed; those people did not stay overnight last night, and then Zhu Gaoxu fell asleep alone.

When he first woke up, his consciousness was still a little fuzzy.In a certain moment, he even felt that the joy of last night was just a dream.

He was not in good physical strength this morning and got up a bit late, so he stopped going outside the Xuanwu Gate and took the soldiers for a run in person.He didn't even want to go to work on duty, but he called out out of breath: "My servant has seen Mrs. Guo." Then Wang Gui gave another order: "Unshackle Mrs. Guo!"

Guo Yan finally said: "I told you all earlier, I was framed! Didn't the Guo family do such things, I don't know?"

"Madam Guo calm down, the court has to go through a process to judge right and wrong, and you have suffered." Wang Gui said kindly.He did something wrong in Yunnan, and after being beaten by Zhu Gaoxu, he acted much more low-key.

Guo Yan was unshackled, rubbed her wrists, and said coldly: "You released me after you found out, the truth must have been done by Mrs. Zhang?!"

Wang Gui pondered for a moment, then said: "The imperial court has already concluded the cause of the late emperor's death. It is indeed the responsibility of the Eastern Palace, and all the members of the Eastern Palace are guilty. But only Mrs. Guo is not guilty."

Guo Yan frowned and thought for a while.

Wang Gui said calmly: "Mrs. Guo is not guilty because you are from the Guo family. The concubine (Guo Wei) is about to be conferred the title of empress. Honglu Temple and other officials are busy preparing for the ceremony; The empress is benevolent and virtuous, how could such a bodhisattva-hearted nobleman and family members do anything bad? The emperor also believed it, so he decided that Mrs. Guo must be ignorant and innocent!"

When Guo Yan heard this, she fell silent.

Wang Gui said quietly again: "The princess begged Madam Guo for mercy, otherwise, you might be on your way to Fengyang right now."

When Guo Yan heard this, a look of bitterness and pain appeared on her face, and her cold resentment just now disappeared.She murmured: "My sister has always been kind..."

"Isn't it?" Wang Guidao, "A nobleman who can be a queen must have accumulated a lot of virtue, and he must be a perfect person!"

Guo Yan suddenly smiled wryly.

Wang Gui didn't know what her smile meant, so he could only guess: it was probably mocking the Queen Zhang, who was abolished as a crown prince?After all, in Guo Yan's eyes, Mrs. Zhang is obviously not a kind person.

Wang Gui said again: "After all, Mrs. Guo has lived in the palace and has had clan heirs, so according to the etiquette, she can't go back to her mother's house to live in. Either the place in the harem is not suitable for your status, or it's the Holy Majesty's place." The place where the family members live; and the northeast corner is now enshrining the late emperor's coffin, so it is not very good for you to live there.

The concubine looked at the place herself, and felt that the houses near the Northwest Imperial Garden were not bad.So he ordered the servants to choose a courtyard for Mrs. Guo, and then sent some stable maids to wait on her. "

Guo Yan said: "Thank my sister for me."

Wang Gui responded, and said: "You can't live in the natal house of Marquis Wuding (when the new emperor awarded meritorious officials, Guo Ming ordered Guo Ming to inherit the title of Guo Ying), but if you want to go home occasionally, you can go back to see it from time to time as long as you ask the concubine to give me permission." watch."

He paused, and continued to speak softly: "The servants will not embarrass Mrs. Guo because of the kindness of the concubine, and they will not be short of expenses. You should also forget about the past, so you are born Raised in the palace. Many things, the past is the past; in your present day, most of the women in the palace can't even dream of it!"

Guo Yan nodded slightly.

"Madam please." Wang Gui bowed and made a gesture.

… Guo Yan walked out of the room where she had been imprisoned for nearly two years together with the eunuchs.She raised her head and took a look, seeing the glare of the sunlight shining down from between the treetops.She took a deep breath of fresh air.

The palaces and roads of Chunhe Palace seem to have remained unchanged.This is the place where Guo Yan lived for seven or eight years. She spent her best years here, so everything is still so familiar.

Guo Yan contained complex emotions and watched the surroundings carefully.
