Reborn Bastard Supreme

Chapter 233 Darkness Chen Cang

The chopsticks in Gu Zhisu's hand paused, he raised his hand to take the note in his hand, opened it and glanced at it, a little smile appeared on the corner of his lips, and murmured in a low voice with dark eyes: "It's really what I thought. Miss..."

Lianzhu at the side heard his words, carefully served him porridge, picked up small dishes with long chopsticks, and put them on the plate at his hand, and when he spoke in a low voice again, his eyes were a bit solemn: "My lord So much effort, trying to cover up his whereabouts, actually meeting a lady, could it be that—" Gu Zhisu heard that he hadn't finished speaking, took a sip of porridge with a smile, and ate the side dishes on the plate Le: "You can say whatever you want, don't worry about me."

Lianzhu glanced at him tentatively, and found that there was no surprise on his face. Guessing that he might have known the purpose of Gu Wenmian's visit to the woman, he hesitated for a moment and then said: "Does the lord want to ...want to marry a bride?"

Gu Zhisu knew that he was still worried about himself, so he was a little secretive, and turned his head to look at him with a smile: "Since it's so obvious, why are you hesitating?"

"My lord really... really wants to marry a bride?!"

Lianzhu was surprised, but the hand holding the plate was steady, and she didn't spill any soup. Qing Huan, who was standing not far away making tea, heard the two of them talking in a low voice, and curiously wanted to pass by. He turned around to listen, but Gu Zhisu and Lianzhu kept their voices low and far away, so they didn't hear anything, so they could only work with their mouths flat and their heads bowed.

Gu Zhisu glanced at her indiscriminately, then turned back with a smile, a hesitant voice came from next to his ear: "Then Mrs. Xin... and Aunt Ye..."

"The Xin family has just made a wedding dress for this bride for so many years, and Aunt Ye... the bamboo basket fetches water in vain - when Aunt Ye hears about this, she will definitely not give up. I don't have time to look for me, I'm afraid I can't wait to pester my father every day to make him change his mind and make her a concubine in the future, maybe there will be a big trouble, it will indeed be a good show."

Lianzhu recalled this period of time, when Xin's illness was serious, Ye Diemeng gained power, and she was in charge of eating and drinking in the big room. I am not afraid that the servant girl will gossip. If the news of Gu Wenmian asking for another noble girl spreads and Ye Diemeng knows about it, the inner house will definitely be in chaos before the Xin family dies, and the emperor will hinder Xin's growth. As a princess, Gu Wenmian is not allowed to marry another.

So until now, although Gu Wenmian often goes out to meet the eldest lady of the Murong family in Changting, but when he returns to the mansion, he not only hides his death, but also spends the night with Ye Diemeng almost every day, so that Ye Diemeng will not become suspicious. , Disturbed Gu Wenmian's desire to marry a noble daughter and have a new son and daughter.

As early as Gu Haitang's death and Gu Haichao's abandonment, Gu Zhisu vaguely sensed that Gu Wenmian had other thoughts. Now that Gu Wenmian is in his prime, his son and daughter can still be born again. Instead of changing the formed children, it is better to remarry A concubine, re-educating her concubine - Gu Zhisu hung his head and picked up the spoon, stirring the soup in the bowl, and heard Lianzhu whispering in his ear: "The prince has such a temper, and there is nothing wrong with him." For a family like the Gu family, even if they won't marry another, it's impossible for them to agree to Aunt Ye and let an aunt be the aunt."

After drinking the porridge in the spoon, Gu Zhisu stood up and stopped moving his chopsticks. After rinsing his mouth lightly with the tea that Qing Huan presented, he walked to the side of Mu Shi and looked at the cloth on it. After ordering one, he opened his arms and let Hu Qin'er, who was standing beside Mu Shi, waiting to dress him, helped him put on the shirt and smoothed the sleeve corners, and took the sachet and jade pendant one by one. hang up.

Gu Zhisu watched her fasten her belt, moved her fingers up unconsciously, and held the pear flower pendant on her chest, lowered her eyes slightly and said in a deep voice: "Whether Aunt Ye is in power now, or Gu Zhiming is proud, it's all meaningless." But Aunt Ye hasn't noticed anything unusual recently, her confidantes are acting crazy, you guys often walk in the mansion, be careful yourself, even if we are not afraid of them, it is best not to cause trouble at this time Make more trouble."

Several people looked at each other, they all knew the importance of this matter, nodded and replied: "Yes, young master."

Gu Zhisu watched Qing Huan go out, and then slowly lowered his eyes to look at Hu Qin'er beside him, and Lianzhu who was holding a tray: "Is the lady from Langya Murong's family really as rumored? Generally gentle and easy to get along with, if she really becomes my aunt in the future, I'm afraid I have to be very careful."

Lianzhu and Hu Qin'er looked at each other, and they both lowered their bodies and responded: "The subordinates will step up investigation of that young lady's every move in the Murong family, please rest assured, young master."

"If so, it would be great."

Gu Zhisu stood in place, pondered for a while, and when he stepped out of the door, he lowered his voice and said: "Let Qionghua do this matter, now the situation in Mingdu is secretive, Han Zhen wants to help Chang'an in the palace, Take control of the affairs of the previous court as soon as possible, and those nails that have been wedged in, it is time to move around."

"As ordered."

Under the high walls of Prince Yi's Mansion, there was still a dark tide. The breeze blew through the palace walls, and the dark copper bells hanging down were also raised. He was walking on the steps, with a fresh face and a pale complexion. Supporting the person walking forward, the feet slipped down along the stone slab, and the bright red long skirt hemlined.

The big palace maid who was serving her, watched her stop, then stopped too, straightened the folds on her, and then raised her voice and said.

"The empress is here—" Not far from the palace, several eunuchs have actually seen the ladies in palace attire, dressed in gold and red phoenix robes, coming towards this side. After that, they knelt down together and raised their voices: "See empress empress, my empress is blessed and safe!"

"Get up." The queen waved her sleeves, raised her hand casually, touched the phoenix hairpin in her hair, put her finger down along the golden tassel, and asked in a cold voice, "Where is the emperor?"

When the young lady heard this, she lowered her head in panic, and replied in a low voice: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty is resting, please _" But the queen flicked her tortoiseshell nails before he finished speaking, and looked back. Following behind, the big palace lady carrying a food box said in a faint voice: "I cook for His Majesty, and I cooked some snacks. If you don't go in to see Your Majesty, the snacks will be cold, and it won't taste good by then. , Your Majesty blames this palace, can you bear it?"

The little lady overheard what she said, her face paled in fright, and she repeatedly kowtowed to the ground and said, "I don't dare!"

Kneeling not far from the little eunuch, who has served the emperor for more than ten years, is now a purple-robed eunuch. The rather old eunuch saw this scene, his drooping face slightly wrinkled, and before the little eunuch said anything else, he slowly Slowly said: "But empress, your majesty is indeed resting. If you insist on breaking in and disturbing your majesty's sleep, the servants will not be able to bear it. Please think twice."

"Of course I know that His Majesty is resting, and you didn't say that you lied to me." When the queen heard this, she looked at the kneeling old eunuch with a stern look on her face, and she calmed down after a while. After sneering, he said in a low voice, "Don't worry, even if His Majesty blames it, I will bear it on my shoulders."

The old lady listened to him saying this, and after hesitating for a moment, she finally turned her body slightly, allowing the queen to walk by, and pushed open the heavy palace door. The little eunuch on the side wanted to say something, and finally looked at the old eunuch beside her. , In the end, he didn't say anything, he still knelt upright, this time he didn't even raise his head.

Inside the open palace door, there was a thick red carpet. The queen walked in slowly. After walking a few steps, she saw the heavy curtains hanging not far away. Following her, after a wink, the palace maid raised her hand to take the food box, lifted the curtain quietly, and walked towards the dragon couch alone.

When she walked to the side of the dragon couch, she saw the emperor lying on his side on the bed, his brows were still tightly furrowed in a deep sleep, the wrinkles on his forehead were deep, and he was obviously in a bad mood.

A few months ago, after the emperor fell ill, he seldom favored his concubines. The empress always went to the East Palace. She had just held the prince’s funeral, and it had been a long time since she hadn’t seen the emperor. She suddenly saw the emperor’s emaciated appearance , his gaze was a little darker than when he just entered the door.

Not long after she stood still, Minrui noticed that the emperor was turning over on the dragon couch, and heard a sigh of unknown meaning beside her ear.

The queen guessed that the emperor was probably awake, and immediately put down the food box in her hand, and bowed to the person on the dragon couch, her long clothes and black hair fell down, covering her thoughtful face: "...The concubine see His Majesty."

The figure on the dragon couch sat up, and a low and hoarse cough sounded. The silent attendant stepped forward and lifted the curtain between the two of them, so that the emperor who had already woken up could clearly see who was kneeling down. .

"It's the queen... come to see me, what can I do?"

Hearing this question, the queen showed a little smile. Although her face was still pale, her expression was very calm. She picked up the food box in her hand and handed it to the attendant who was waiting to pick it up. Can't you come to see His Majesty and bring some snacks to His Majesty?"

The emperor watched the food box move in front of his eyes, and his eyes turned to the kneeling queen, a little bit from her pale face, falling on her hands clasped on her knees. Although her expression seemed calm, she could see that A look of weakness and sadness that couldn't be concealed—it was because of the prince who died not long ago.
