I Rely on Beauty to Stabilize the Country

The angel from the palace conveyed these words to Xue Yuan's ears verbatim.

With a smile, Xue Yuan said in a personable manner: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness."

After the angel left, he walked slowly outside Second Young Master Xue's room, looking at Second Young Master Xue whose face was livid with cold and shivering all over, with deep eyes.

Second Young Master Xue only felt a burst of coldness, he raised his head to look at Xue Yuan, and was terrified by his eyes.

The imperial doctor who took his pulse stroked his beard and comforted him: "Please don't move around, Young Master Xue."

Half an hour later, the imperial doctor and palace servants who came from the palace had already left.Xue Yuan leisurely stepped into the room of Second Young Master Xue, and he sat at the side angrily, glancing at the many medicinal herbs left by the palace servants from the corner of his eye.

The second son of Xue was blessed to the heart, "If the elder brother wants it, just take it away."

Xue Yuan grinned when he heard the words, and said to the servant who was serving Second Young Master Xue: "Pull the quilt away, take two buckets of ice water, and pour fire on Second Young Master."

Second Master Xue was already so cold that he had covered two layers of quilts in the summer, but the servant who heard Xue Yuan's words didn't seem to have seen this scene. A lump of cold water was poured on Second Young Master Xue from head to toe.

"Ah!" Second Young Master Xue screamed.

Xue Yuan smiled, and said with sincerity: "Brother Lin, there is something here, brother, that must be done by you."

Second Master Xue's teeth were chattering, and he looked at Xue Yuan in horror.

Xue Yuan smiled slightly, "You will stay sick until the Holy Majesty goes to the summer palace, okay?"

Second Master Xue shuddered and sneezed loudly.

"Come here, give the Second Young Master two more buckets of ice water." Xue Yuan stood up abruptly, and he walked quickly to the bedside, oppressed by the shadow, "Second Xue, I will tell you."

He lowered his voice, threatening, "If you can get up and get out of bed and take a bite of food before the Holy Majesty departs, I will pull out your tongue and cut off your hands."

"But if you can be obedient," Xue Yuandao, "Your Majesty Anle, right? Calling you disabled? I cut off his finger for you to play with?"

The Second Young Master Xue was so startled that he couldn't speak clearly, "Thank you, brother."

Xue Yuan really felt that he had become a good brother. He looked at Second Young Master Xue with satisfaction, until his whole body went numb, before he turned around and left the room swiftly.

Second Master Xue heaved a sigh of relief, he looked at the two buckets of ice water newly brought by the bed, gritted his teeth, remembered the arrogant and mocking face of Prince An Lehou, and tremblingly said: "Pour water, pour water on me. "

Five days passed by in a flash.

During this period, a small incident happened. When the prince An Le Hou went out to play, he was unfortunately separated from his servants and encountered gangsters who robbed him of money.After the gangsters robbed the money, they also cut off a little finger of An Lehou Shizi.

This incident happened outside the capital city. Although it was still within the jurisdiction of the governor of the capital city, because it was too far away, the governor of the capital city couldn't take care of it.I also don't know how An Lehou Shizi got to such a far place, but the place is far away and there are few people coming and going, so it's hard to find out.

No matter how much An Lehou loses his temper, everyone knows that this villain probably won't be able to catch him.

Gu Yuanbai also heard about this, he frowned, and secretly sent people to strengthen the inspection, and strengthened the protection of the places that the governor of the capital had no time to take care of.

On the day when he went to the summer resort, Xue Yuan appeared in front of Gu Yuanbai on time.

He was wearing Du Yuhou's clothes, and his face was a little tired, "I pay homage to the Holy Majesty."

Gu Yuanbai dressed casually today, only keeping cool.With a half-smile, he walked past Xue Yuan: "If Xue Qing is worried about brother, she doesn't have to stay by my side."

Xue Yuan followed Gu Yuanbai's side step by step, and smiled casually, "My brother is fine, but I feel uneasy if I don't come to the Holy One with my salary."

Gu Yuanbai didn't know if he could hear it or not, he didn't even look at Xue Yuan, and got into the carriage directly.Xue Yuan stood by the carriage alone for a while, then stepped back and got on the horse, and rode beside Sheng Shang's carriage.

Gu Yuanbai got into the carriage, and when he was ready, he gave an order, and the long line began to move.After the Holy Majesty's carriage and his escort, there are the carriages and servants of the princes and ministers, royal family members.Guarded by the imperial guards in all directions, they slowly headed towards the Summer Palace.

On the way to the summer resort, the Holy Majesty and the court ministers must not delay political affairs.There is no need to go to the early court, but everyone has to deal with government affairs in their own carriages, and the Holy One will often order some ministers to discuss state affairs in the holy car.

In this way, on the way to the summer resort, the ministers are more efficient than in the yamen.

Gu Yuanbai is a good boss, he won't oppress his subordinates too much, and when he encounters a good scenery on the road, he will let the team take a break for a while, and let the courtiers and clan members bring their families to have close contact with the beautiful nature.When the interest came, I took everyone to climb mountains, play in the water, learn about the local scenic spots and ancient scenery, feel leisurely, come here with pleasure, and return with satisfaction.

Sometimes the window of the carriage is opened, the curtains are lifted, and the breeze outside is wrapped in the fragrance of green grass and passes through the carriage, which is also very pleasant.

The capital is very close to the Summer Palace, even though the emperor's team walked long and slowly, they all arrived at the Summer Palace after seven days.

There are many lakes in the summer resort palace, and there are countless landscape sketches.Gu Yuanbai has been here two or three times, but only now is the most comfortable time. When the cool lake breeze blows, the sweat on his body instantly dries up.

Gu Yuanbai dismissed the crowd and asked them to go to their own mansions to pack their things. They rested for two days first, and then started the same work system as in the capital on the third day.

After the crowd dispersed, Gu Yuanbai asked someone to prepare water to wash off the thin sweat on his body.

And Xue Yuan, who was silent all the way, looked at his back and thought heavily in his heart, how can he let Gu Yuanbai keep him by his side.

For the past seven days, Gu Yuanbai seemed to be unable to see Xue Yuan, and never gave Xue Yuan a momentary look.

When he got on and off the carriage, he called Zhang Xu, the head of the bodyguard.The white hand of the holy majesty was often supported by the head of the guard. The chief guard was loyal, and when he held Gu Yuanbai's hand, as long as the majesty did not withdraw it, he would not know how to let go.

But when it comes to Zhang Xu, the Holy Majesty doesn't think it's an overreach.Putting it on Xue Yuan, the Holy One didn't pay attention to Xue Yuan at all.

Gu Yuanbai must have noticed something.

Xue Yuan knew it well.

Knowing that the only chance for him to stay with Gu Yuanbai is this summer palace.

After Gu Yuanbai got out of the shower, he put on his underwear, sat and rested for a while, and only after he recovered his breath did he call someone in.

Tian Fusheng brought warm tea for him, and Gu Yuanbai drank a few sips before he felt better, "The window inside is closed too tightly, it makes me uncomfortable."

"The palace servants in the palace are no match for the palace servants in the capital," Tian Fusheng said, "If you're careless, I'll teach them how to do things today."

Gu Yuanbai drank another cup of tea, exhaled a mouthful of hot air, and only after finishing his clothes, he strode out of the misty palace.

Tian Fusheng thought for a while, "My lord, if the palace is not comfortable, there is also an open-air spring pool in the palace, soaking there, it should be more to your liking than in the palace."

"Oh?" Gu Yuanbai was really moved, "Take me to take a look next time."

When Gu Yuanbai came to the summer palace earlier, he was not in the mood to enjoy it because the power was left behind, so he was not familiar with this palace.

Later, Gu Yuanbai went to Concubine Wan's residence and saluted Concubine Wan.

After returning from Concubine Wan's place, Gu Yuanbai was fine.

He plans to give himself two days off, except for urgent matters, and I will talk about it later.

In the Summer Palace, there is an island in the lake, which is very similar to the Taiye Pool in the Daming Palace.

The island was surrounded by cool winds, and even in summer, one could feel the coolness of the autumn wind. After lunch, Gu Yuanbai took a boat and took some of his attendants, and headed towards the island in the lake.

The Summer Palace was built by the previous dynasty, and the island in the middle of the lake has also changed its name in the present. The founding emperor renamed it Nanhu Island.

Nanhu Island was tidied up, but Gu Yuanbai's body couldn't bear the fatigue, and before the boat arrived on the island, he had already fallen asleep with the swaying wooden boat.

In order not to disturb the Holy Majesty, the boat began to circle around Nanhu Island again and again. When Gu Yuanbai woke up, most of the guards were already stained with vegetables, showing signs of seasickness.

Gu Yuanbai was still awake, a little dizzy.He rubbed his forehead, the boatman stopped the boat to the shore, Gu Yuanbai got up and took two steps, almost lost his balance by the swaying boat.

Xue Yuan supported him without changing his face, and helped him onto the shore.His arms were so powerful that Gu Yuanbai had already stepped on the ground firmly without any effort.

He asked hoarsely, "How long have I been asleep?"

Xue Yuan said: "More than two quarters of an hour."

Gu Yuanbai was in a daze, unable to believe that he had only slept for half an hour.He waved away Xue Yuan's support, and turned his head to look at Tian Fusheng. The old slave had completely passed out, and was lying beside the boat in pain, unable to move.

Gu Yuanbai shook his head helplessly, "Everyone who feels uncomfortable should go back and rest."

Tian Fusheng said with difficulty and tears: "Then you—"

Xue Yuan smiled and said, "Director Tian, ​​I'm still waiting beside the Holy One."

If it was in the past, Tian Fusheng would naturally appreciate Xue Yuan, and he would feel relieved that Xue Yuan would stay by His Majesty's side.But now that he knew that the sage intended to transfer Xue Yuan, he didn't know whether he should let Xue Yuan stay by the sage's side.

Tian Fusheng glanced at the Holy One, Gu Yuanbai noticed his gaze, and said casually, "Go back."

Tian Fusheng respectfully said: "Yes."

This group of people who couldn't hold on any longer were sent back by the boatman.The chief guard also felt a little uncomfortable, but he insisted on staying by Gu Yuanbai's side.

Gu Yuanbai led the people to the gazebo, sat and rested for a while, and he continued to lead the people forward until everyone's expressions improved.

Xue Yuan kept silent all the way, but when he bent down to brush the willow branches and leaves above Gu Yuanbai's head, he suddenly said, "My lord."

Gu Yuanbai glanced at him sideways.

Xue Yuan smiled slightly, and stretched out his hand towards Gu Yuanbai: "The front is steep, hold your hand tightly."

Among the guards, no one could match Xue Yuan's energy.All the people were a little listless because of wandering around on the water, but Xue Yuan, as if he had just set off, was more energetic than Gu Yuanbai who had just slept.

Gu Yuanbai withdrew his gaze, as if saying casually, "Xue Qing, I am a man."

Xue Yuan knew that Gu Yuanbai's words were to remind him.The Holy One is a man, and Xue Yuan should not have such thoughts about a man.

No matter how weak the body is, no matter how good-looking the Holy One is, he is still the most respected man in the world.

He is the lord of the world, he has desire and great ambition for power, he is a person who is strong and charming from the bottom of his heart, how could Xue Yuan not understand, this is the reason why crazy grass grows in his heart .

Xue Yuan smiled and withdrew his hand, "Then I will support you when the Holy Majesty needs it."

After the steep place, the sound of gurgling water was heard.A group of people approached and saw a clear shallow lake flowing, the breeze suddenly picked up, and the water was sparkling.

"Does Your Majesty want to play in the water to get rid of the heat?" Xue Yuan asked, "This place is good, look at the water flow, it should only reach the chest."

A group of people who were sweating profusely were moved and looked at the Holy Majesty earnestly.

"How's the water temperature?" Gu Yuanbai asked.

Xue Yuan approached and tried, "It's still gentle, the Holy Majesty should be able to accept it."

Gu Yuanbai's eyelids twitched, feeling that this scene was very familiar. He squatted down himself, stretched out his hand, and when his fingertips entered the water, he looked at Xue Yuan in surprise: "It's really just right..."

The pool water, which has been in the sun for a day, happens to be slightly hot, which is an extremely comfortable swimming temperature.

People who used to be unable to feel the heat when pouring hot water on their hands can now clearly feel the temperature of the water in the wild lake.

Gu Yuanbai couldn't help looking at his hand in the water.

Xue Yuan didn't move his fingers, allowing the Holy One to see clearly.

He looked at the top of Gu Yuanbai's head, the black hair was soft, but no matter how soft the hair, no matter how gentle the face, it could not stop Gu Yuanbai's ruthlessness.

Xue Yuan said in his heart, Lao Tzu's heart is about to turn cold.

Kicked, crushed, and slapped in the face a few times before.The dragon bed has been crawled, the mouth has been kissed, and the touch has been touched.

How come you want to transfer him as soon as you know he likes him?

Xue Yuan is also a human being. Although he will never take a step back again and again this time, he is really in a bad mood.

Gu Yuanbai came back to his senses and asked the guards to cool off in the underground water, while he walked along the front of the water and found a quiet place of just the right size.

He went into the water in his middle suit, and after a few rounds of swimming, he was satisfied.

Gu Yuanbai leaned lazily on the bank, and many of the summer yellow flowers on the bank dropped their petals and floated on the water.

"Plop" sound.

Gu Yuanbai opened his eyes and saw that Xue Yuan had already taken off his coat and entered the water. He was swimming deep. Gu Yuanbai looked at him for a while and then closed his eyes.

After a while, Gu Yuanbai suddenly felt that the water around him was shaking.He raised his eyes and saw that Xue Yuan was already approaching him, and when the waves hit Gu Yuanbai, Xue Yuan also stopped in front of Gu Yuanbai.

Xue Yuan reached out, picked up a yellow petal from Gu Yuanbai's neck, and put it in his mouth.

This piece of petal has been stuck to the neck of the saint for a while, and Xue Yuan followed it for a while, and at this moment he finally tasted it, and squinted his eyes, it was so sweet.
