Sweet pet: The queen is delicate and soft

But fortunately, the people in their listening building have been immersed in the world for a long time, and no one will be easily swayed by this obvious temptation of money.

Just because they know that the world is dangerous and money is important, but pursuing inner truth and adhering to morality are more valuable.

These people have been working hard in the world for a long time and have seen too many people deviate from their original intentions because of the temptation of money, and finally fall into endless pain and regret. Therefore, they firmly resist this temptation and remain unmoved. Money can certainly bring short-term satisfaction and vanity, but in the long run, it cannot bring real happiness and inner peace.

In this world full of temptations, people who listen to the building have always stuck to their beliefs and are not tempted by money. They know that a person's value does not only depend on the amount of wealth, but also on the noble character and responsibility.

They used their actions to explain what it means to be a real hero in the world, that is, in the face of temptation, they can still stick to their original aspirations and fight for justice.

However, Lao Zhao was obviously overly concerned about the gold being placed in the secret passage. The pile of gold was placed there not for any special reason, but simply because Xiao Mobai's wealth was too great.

During the construction of this secret passage, not all the gold moved from one of Canglong's warehouses in Beijing was used up, so it was blatantly piled in the corner near the entrance to the palace.

Considering that only his own people can enter this secret passage, Xiao Mobai is not worried that someone will take the gold privately. After all, these wealth are just the tip of the iceberg to him. Even if they are all gone, he will not feel any distress. What he values ​​more is that the people under him can be loyal to him and protect his interests.

The housekeeper took a few steps forward with steady steps and gently knocked on the palace door located in the secret passage. On the other side of the palace gate, there was a sound of light footsteps immediately. After a while, a dignified and neatly dressed palace maid appeared at the door.

When she saw the butler, she immediately saluted skillfully, showing a clear understanding of the butler's identity.

The palace maid seemed to have been accustomed to the butler's arrival. With a smile on her face and respectful eyes, she quickly opened the palace door for the butler. The butler looked serious, nodded slightly in response, and then walked into the palace with confident steps. The interaction between them seems to be very understanding, and it is obvious that the butler enjoys a high status and respect in the palace.

The palace in the secret passage has an elegant and solemn layout, and the air is filled with a faint fragrance. After the housekeeper and Lao Zhao entered the palace, the palace maid followed closely behind and gently closed the palace door. They walked through the long corridor and came to a spacious hall. In the main hall, the sun is shining brightly, reflecting the tranquility and peace.

"My lord, please wait for a moment while I go to report to the master."

In this palace, the maids did not call Gu Nian empress, but called her master. Obviously, in front of the people listening to the building, they preferred to let Gu Nian appear in another identity.

When Gu Nian didn't come, the housekeeper and Lao Zhao didn't dare to sit down, so they stood and waited for the master to come.

At this time, in the spacious and elegant royal study, Gu Nian was spending quality time with Xiao Mobai. The two of them were sitting at the desk. Gu Nian was sitting in Xiao Mobai's arms, drawing leisurely ink paintings.

Xiao Mobai was leaning on the comfortable couch, holding one hand tightly around Gu Nian's waist, giving her enough sense of security. The other hand holds a heavy book, savoring the wisdom in it alone. They accompany each other and share this quiet comfort.

The imperial study room at this moment is filled with a harmonious and warm atmosphere. Gu Nian concentrated on painting, and occasionally looked up at Xiao Mobai beside him. Their eyes met, showing full of love. Xiao Mobai read the book quietly, sometimes sharing the subtleties of the book with Gu Nian in a low voice. Gu Nian listened, with a smile of admiration and appreciation on his face.

In this wonderful time, they depend on each other and make progress together. Not only do we work together on national affairs, but we also help each other in life. This way of getting along makes the relationship between them deeper and deeper, and it also makes them know how to cherish each other more.

Sunlight shines through the window lattice into every corner of the palace, illuminating this palace world full of classical charm. The little maids shuttled busily outside the palace, fulfilling their responsibilities and keeping the palace clean and peaceful.

At this time, a little palace maid walked into the study, and her eyes were attracted by a beautiful picture. The scroll depicts the beautiful scenery of mountains and rivers, and the flowers are like brocade, which is lifelike. When the little palace maid looked at the scroll, she seemed to be able to hear the sound of gurgling water and smell the fragrance of flowers.

Looking up again, His Majesty and the Empress were cuddling together, looking very loving and harmonious. When the little palace maid saw this, she couldn't even bear to speak out, for fear of ruining the beauty in front of her.

Gu Nian saw a shadow cast on the paper in front of him, so he looked up and noticed the little palace maid entering. He put down the brush in his hand and looked at the little palace maid with a smile, with a questioning look in his eyes.

Seeing Gu Nian looking over, the little palace maid immediately bowed respectfully and reported: "Your Majesty, the housekeeper of Tinglou is asking for an audience. I am waiting for your order in the side hall at the exit of the secret passage."

Gu Nian smiled slightly and said with some surprise: "Oh? Uncle housekeeper is here? It's really rare. Let them wait for a moment, I will be there right away."

After the palace maid retreated, Gu Nian stood up from Xiao Mobai's arms and wanted to go to the side hall to meet the housekeeper of the building. But just when Gu Nian was about to get up, a big hand trapped her in his arms.

"Huh? What to do?"

Gu Nian was restrained by Xiao Mobai again, and sat back on Xiao Mobai's lap, looking up at Xiao Mobai in confusion.

"Nian'er is not good. As soon as he heard that Tinglou's housekeeper was coming, he forgot about me."

Xiao Mobai spoke very aggrievedly, looking miserable as if he had abandoned his husband. His eyes were full of loss and helplessness, as if he had been greatly neglected. When Gu Nian saw this, she recalled that she seemed to have left Xiao Mobai's arms a little faster just now, and she couldn't help but blame herself.

Gu Nian felt guilty. She patted Xiao Mobai's shoulder gently and tried to comfort him: "Okay, it's all my fault. Please forgive me, husband. Do you want to go with me?" She knew that this time At this time, Xiao Mobai became jealous again, so he could only coax him.

Upon hearing Gu Nian's invitation, Xiao Mobai's face immediately showed a look of joy. He agreed without even a trace of hesitation or thinking, and his mood seemed to improve instantly.
