Stepping into the hall, Chu Xian immediately stood up and shouted, "Brother Huang, are you back?"

Chu Yao nodded, walked straight to the high position, and said coldly, "What's the matter here to see Gu?"

There was a smile on the corner of Chu Xian's mouth, and it seemed that a light layer of powder had been applied on his face to cover his haggard face, but even so, the fatigue on his face was still obvious.

Right Prime Minister Tang Yuan was grounded. Although there was no activity on the surface, there was no shortage of things that should be done and shouldn't be done in private.

But... above the court, people from the right-handed lineage, and his lineage, seem to have lost their backbone, and they are simply a head shorter than Chu Yao's.In the court hall, he was suppressed and dared not even say a word.

"The younger brother came here today, and I have something to ask the emperor brother."

Chu Yao: "What's the matter, just say it, don't beat around the bush."

Chu Xian gritted his back molars, and said, "My brother wants to invite Brother Huang, and relieve the right minister's restraint."

Hearing this, Chu Yao smiled mockingly, "Why?"

Chu Xian blushed, as if she had been slapped on the head a few times, and the pain was burning, "When my aunt came to my brother's house, she couldn't stop complaining, and my brother couldn't bear her to wash her face with tears, so she came to bother the emperor. "

He pushed the relationship cleanly and didn't mention himself at all.

Chu Yao picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said, "According to what you said, came to ask Gu to relieve the right minister's restraint, is it your own decision?"

Chu Xian gritted his teeth and clenched the fist hanging by his side, "...Yes."

"You acted rashly, but have you asked the Prime Minister if he is willing to release the confinement?"

Chu Yao said coldly, Chu Xian's complexion was ugly, from white to blue and then to red, his complexion changed extremely wonderfully, just like the face-changing in Sichuan opera.

Chu Yao added, "You don't have to do bad things with good intentions."

Chu Xian stiffened his body, looked straight at him, and suddenly felt a chill in his back.In Chu Yao's sharp eyes, it seems that he has also seen through the soul.

The most secret things he does seem to be completely exposed to his eyes.

Chu Xian hurriedly expelled this terrible thought from his mind, and said, "I don't understand what the emperor is talking about, I'm just worried about my aunt."

Chu Xian gritted his teeth and said, "Brother Huang, you don't have to think about it."

Chu Yao glanced at him lightly, hooked the corners of his lips, "Maybe."

Chu Yao paused for a moment, then said again: "You think of the Right Prime Minister wholeheartedly, you said, he treats you wholeheartedly?"

Chu Xian was startled, his back was soaked with cold sweat, and he said, "Brother Huang was joking."

Chu Yao stopped talking.

Chu Xian bid farewell, left the Hall of Mental Cultivation, and was blown by the cool night wind, trembling uncontrollably, full of doubts.

Does Chu Yao's words mean that their actions have been noticed?

Also, Prime Minister, are you really in the same heart with him?

Now is the critical moment, but because of a cat, he was locked up by Chu Yao.

Chu Xian's heart was in a mess, and he couldn't stop cutting and reasoning.

The pace of leaving the palace changed, and walked straight towards the Palace of Compassion and Ning.No matter what the right minister thinks, what the officials think, the queen mother will stand on the same front with him from the beginning to the end.

There was a bang, several thunderclaps, and raindrops fell one after another, turning into a downpour in an instant.

Chu Xian: ...

Unable to resist swearing, Chu Xian quickly ran towards the Palace of Compassion.

"My lord!"

Ali exclaimed, "You are, come in quickly!"

As she spoke, she opened the umbrella, walked out quickly, and covered Chu Yao's head.

Chu Xian wiped his face, "The queen mother can rest, this king has something to talk to the queen mother about."

The Empress Dowager heard the movement, she came out to see it happily, her face immediately sank, and after asking about the cause and effect, the Compassion Ning Palace was in a state of panic again.

Chu Yao stood in front of the window, watching the rain.

The rainwater fell and collected under the eaves, forming a puddle.

Coolness drifted in from the window, and Chu Yao's clothes were stained with damp breath.

A black figure quietly landed behind him, knelt down to salute, and then said: "Master, King Xian has gone to the Palace of Compassion."

Chu Yao looked into the distance and said for a long time, "Look at it."

Shadow One: "Yes, master."

"Master, do you want to keep watching Hanliang Palace?"

Chu Yao paused, and said: "Just keep an eye on it, and let Gu know as soon as possible if there is anything."

Shadow responded and left quietly.

Chu Yao breathed the moist air of the rainy day, and couldn't help thinking about Yu Tao's reaction after he identified Yu Tao's identity.

Like a frightened cat, it instinctively wants to run away, but because it is him it is facing, it can only be encouraged to please.

Seeing his first reaction, Chu Yao was even more convinced of what he was already sure about.

However, Yu Tao denied it categorically, as if he had made up his mind that he would never admit it no matter what.

Chu Yao lowered his eyes, unable to see the expression in his eyes clearly.

Since he didn't want to admit it, he let him admit it.

In the early morning of the next day, the air was fresh after the rain, and the sky was washed by the rain, showing a pure blue.

Chu Yao went to the morning court as usual.

The ministers in the palace didn't talk about it as usual, they fought each other, and no one was convinced by anyone's point of view. Most of them were silent, and it seemed that the Golden Luan Palace was silent.

Chu Yao: "Master Zuo, do you have something to play?"

Lin Jing looked embarrassed, and tried her best to give Chu Yao a look.

Before he could speak, an aged veteran said: "The old minister has something to play."

"Your Majesty is twenty-five. Three days after the Mid-Autumn Festival, it will be your 26th birthday. When the late Emperor was as old as you, you were already about eight years old. But now, Your Majesty, you have no children under your knees. Really... Let the old minister worry!"

The veteran said a long list, all just for the last paragraph.

Chu Yao said: "Gu is in his prime of life, so don't worry about your children."

The veteran said again: "Even if you don't worry about it, your majesty should choose a concubine to fill the harem. The emperor has three thousand beauties in ancient times, and you... Even if you don't need so many beauties, you should still be a queen and give birth to heirs, That's the most important thing!"

After he said that, many ministers joined him, all of them persuading him to accept his concubine and make him a queen.

Chu Yao: ...

Chu Yao said coldly, "Gu is in his prime, so you are anxious to let Gu give birth to an heir, establish a prince, and hold him to the right and heart?"

The emperor was furious, and everyone in the court shook their minds.

Forcing His Majesty to make a crown prince, isn't it just cursing him?

The minister was as silent as a cicada and stopped admonishing.

The court is stable, but after the next court, the queen mother will wait in the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Chu Yao said: "What's the matter with the queen mother?"

The Empress Dowager smiled bluntly, "Can't I come and see if I have nothing to do?"

Without waiting for Chu Yao to speak, she continued, "The courtiers asked you to accept the concubine. They wrote the papers and sent them to the palace. The palace, according to the wishes of the ministers, issued a Taoist decree."

Chu Yao:?

Empress Dowager: "All the marriageable girls from each family will be sent to the palace. As a show girl, this palace will personally preside over the selection of a concubine for you."

Chu Yao frowned, about to refute the queen mother's edict.However, he changed his mind, but stopped talking, and asked Liu Fang to send the queen mother out after a while with a cold face.

The Empress Dowager held her chest high and raised her head, her figure swaying like a rooster fighting for victory.

After seeing off the queen mother, Liu Fang returned to the hall, ready to face Chu Yao's cold face, but he didn't expect that Chu Yao was turning the tea bowl lid leisurely, and seemed to be in a good mood.

Liu Fang: ...

Isn't Your Majesty unwilling to accept a concubine?

With the acquiescence of Chu Yao and the vigorous promotion of the queen mother, the emperor's draft was aroused.

Yu Tao stayed in the Hanliang Palace, languishing for a few days without leaving the gate.Under Liangtu's gossip, he took advantage of the morning breeze and basked in the sun in the yard.

After sitting for a while, an unexpected guest came.

Chu Ting had a complex face, his eyes were full of sympathy and resentment, and he vigorously shook the folding fan in his hand.

Yu Tao looked at him strangely, "What's wrong with you?"

Chu Ting sat down beside Yu Tao, "You don't know?"

Yu Tao: "What should I know?"

Chu Ting hated iron but steel: "Brother Huang is going to choose a concubine to become a queen!"

"what?"

His words were like a heavy punch hitting his heart, Yu Tao suddenly straightened up, looked at him in a daze, and said, "Is he going to accept a concubine?"

No wonder, since that night when Chu Yao recognized his identity and he tried his best to deny it, the two never met again.

I don't want to hear from him again, but it's because he wants to accept the concubine and become the empress.

Chu Ting nodded and patted his shoulder, "Don't worry, I'm on your side."

Yu Tao lowered his eyes, "Oh, then let's prepare the gift together."

Chu Yao:? ? ?

"What else are you preparing?!" Chu Ting folded his fan and knocked on the stone table, "You don't stop him from accepting a concubine, but also give him congratulatory gifts, are you so stupid?"

Yu Tao quit in an instant, and said fiercely, "Who are you calling stupid!"

Chu Ting consciously said the wrong thing, "Calm down, calm down, I made a mistake, brother Huang is stupid."

Yu Tao: "...Why?"

"You are so good, he doesn't know how to cherish it, and you want to marry a concubine, what is it not stupid!" Chu Ting spoke righteously, without any intention of taking the opportunity to vent his personal anger.

Yu Tao's head was full of question marks, "What do you mean?"

Chu Ting frowned, "You are with the emperor, and you will not be angry or sad when he accepts the concubine's marriage?"

together? !

Yu Tao grasped the point, is he with Chu Yao?

Is it what he understands?

Yu Tao shook his head, leaving the complicated thoughts behind him.Concubine Chu Yao gets married, it seems that something that belongs to him is lost, there may be sadness, but...

"Since when have we been together?"

He and Chu Yao had never been together before, he really wanted to see what was in Chu Ting's head.

Chu Ting:? ? ?

"You guys aren't together?!" Chu Ting didn't believe it, "Then why did he kiss you?"

Yu Tao: "Is there? No."

"That day in the palace, you looked like you... Anyway, I don't believe it." Chu Ting said, "Brother Huang treats you so well, and you are full of love when you look at him. It can be seen that I don't believe that Brother Huang doesn't know."

Yu Tao: ...

When did he look at Chu Yao with love?

"You have to know that Brother Huang doesn't treat me that well." Chu Yao chattered endlessly, "He has a fierce and cold face, which is very scary. But he treats you very well, even if he is not with you as you said Together, he must have you in his heart."

"If you really want to say no, I won't believe it unless you confront Brother Huang face to face!"

"Confront what?"

Chu Yao walked in slowly and looked at the two of them.

Yu Tao: ...

Chu Ting: ...
