marriage contract

After the summer solstice, the weather gradually began to heat up, and it has been cloudy but not raining for the past two days.

The people in the capital will always look up from time to time. The neighboring provinces are dry, and even the vicinity of the capital has not rained for a while. Although the drought does not spread to the capital, some people always think that it would be great if it rained.

But in the Qianqing Palace in the imperial city, a violent storm was brewing, perhaps this was not enough to describe the atmosphere at this time.

The emperor sat on the kang by the window, his face was gloomy and terrible, the little eunuch on duty wished he was a wooden stake, and was trying to reduce the sense of existence, even the sweat that fell down did not dare to raise his hand to wipe it off.

"Aren't you here yet?" The emperor looked at the little eunuch next to him and asked, with a chill in his voice.

"It's not here yet, it should be coming soon." The little eunuch quickly raised his eyes and glanced outside the door before answering, but his heart was trembling, even though he knew that the anger didn't care about his business, he still sweated when he heard the emperor's words up.

However, Eunuch Chen, the chief eunuch in charge of Qianqing Palace, brought a cup of tea to the side of the emperor, and said softly, "Your Majesty, drink some tea to moisten your throat."

The emperor glanced at him, took two sips of the tea, then stared at the teacup with his lips tightly pressed together.

Suddenly, he raised his hand and threw the teacup out, as if out of breath. After taking a few deep breaths, he gritted his teeth and asked, "Isn't it here yet?!" There was still a bit of sharpness in his tone.

The little eunuch almost retracted his head into the cavity, he glanced outside the door again, and replied: "Not yet..."

Eunuch Chen stood by the side all the time, and when the emperor was questioning, he gave another little eunuch a wink and told him to put away the teacup.The teacup was originally thrown for the emperor, if the emperor does not let the emperor vent his anger first, someone might be unlucky during this period of time, the emperor's anger should be directed at the right master.

Just when the emperor was furious, a young eunuch ran in to report: "Your Majesty, Mr. Gu begs to see you."

"Let him in!" The emperor squeezed out the words word by word through his teeth.

The little eunuch kept his head down, and when he heard the emperor's words, he backed out. After he left the door, he ran to spread the word, asking to stay away from here.

Elder Gu is in a good mood these two days. When the emperor uploaded him to enter the palace, he was still thinking about what would happen. If there is anything that has caught the emperor's heart recently, it should only be his nephew's marriage.His younger brother messed up the errand assigned by the emperor. Although the emperor did not blame him, he was still afraid that the emperor would take his anger out on him. It was not easy for him to sit in this position, and the most important thing was to be able to settle down.

The emperor did not explicitly say that he was dissatisfied with the second master Gu and Gu Chengzhi, but at that time it was clearly furious, so how could he reuse him.Those who went to Nanxing Mountain were all the emperor's people, but the hexagrams brought back showed the emperor's intentions. As a courtier, he naturally had to be sensible.

Now that Gu Chengzhi's marriage has been settled, his official position will also be taken care of. When Gu Chengzhi marries into the Chu family, there will be one more disaster. At least he doesn't have to worry about the emperor staring at the Gu family anytime and anywhere.

This can be regarded as helping the emperor to solve a heart problem, and he doesn't know how the emperor will reward him.

Master Gu walked leisurely all the way to Qianqing Gate, and the little eunuch who was waiting to report back was about to bleed from hatred.Long live Lord was furious inside, and they all had to shrink their necks to live, but the culprit dared to wander over in a leisurely manner, and he had never seen such a death.

As soon as he saw Elder Gu's figure, he made sure that he was not mistaken, so he went to meet the emperor like being chased by a dog.

"..." Mr. Gu originally wanted to get close to that father-in-law, and asked the Holy One why he had summoned him this time, but the man ran away as soon as he saw him, and he suddenly felt a little uneasy.

The little eunuch who sent the message went and came back quickly, and ran back after a short while, seeing that Mr. Gu was still standing there waiting, he didn't dare to delay, took a few breaths and said directly: "The emperor let you in. "After speaking, he lowered his head and walked back.

Elder Gu felt uneasy, took out a silver locket and secretly handed it to the little eunuch who was leading the way.

The money is more important than the life, the little eunuch can clearly distinguish this point, he dare not accept the money, and hastily returned it.

Seeing that the silverware could not be sent out, Elder Gu's heart sank, and he thought secretly, and quickly said softly: "Eunuch, Eunuch, look at this...but the emperor..." It's not easy to say it clearly, it can only be like this ask.

The little eunuch looked at him, unable to sympathize at all, he just felt that the emperor's anger was for nothing, and the emotional one didn't know how big a thunderbolt he had stepped on, his head must have been eaten by moths.

He wanted to marry Gu Sanye, who was valued by the emperor, and even asked him what the emperor thought, without asking, he should know that the emperor definitely wanted to marry him as well.This IQ is hopeless!

The two of them arrived at Qianqing Palace without saying a word. Perhaps it should be said that Master Gu had always wanted to talk, but the little eunuch refused to speak.

Once outside the hall, there is only a wall between him and the emperor, even if he wants to ask, he can't ask any more. Mr. Gu stood respectfully outside the door, but peeked at the situation inside the hall out of the corner of his eye.Seeing the gloomy expression of a dead father on the face of a young eunuch, he felt a "thud" in his heart, and saw that he looked at him as if he was looking at a dead person, and suddenly broke out in sweat.

The little eunuch who led the way just now entered the hall again, Elder Gu heard him say: "Your Majesty, Lord Gu has already brought you here."

"Let him in!" The emperor's voice was piercingly cold, like a sharp sword piercing his chest, Mr. Gu's legs were a little weak.

He licked his lips, took a deep breath before walking into the hall, lowered his head, and knelt down when he saw the emperor, "My minister, see Your Majesty."

The emperor had finally found someone to burn the anger he had endured for a long time, but seeing Mr. Gu kneeling there, he felt that the anger could not be vented, as if there was still a layer of window paper that hadn't been pierced.He held his breath for so long, even his hands trembled a little, wishing he could throw a teacup at him, his eyes scanned the surroundings, but he found that there was nothing that could be used as a hidden weapon.

Eunuch Chen suddenly felt lucky to be beside him. Fortunately, the emperor dropped the cup of tea just now. If it hit Mr. Gu's head, it would cause a big accident if something happened. Now the emperor will only scold him when he is in a hurry.

Elder Gu knelt on the ground, with the scorching gaze on his head, his heart was pounding, somehow he made this master unhappy, but he just helped him solve a problem!

"You made an engagement with Gu Chengzhi, didn't you?!" The emperor looked at him and said slowly, with teeth grinding in his voice.

Mr. Gu's heart was spinning rapidly, thinking about what the emperor meant by this?To answer directly or vice versa?Could it be that the emperor is still dissatisfied with what he has done?Thinking about this in his heart, he said: "Yes, I have already arranged a marriage for him, and I am already choosing the nearest auspicious date. I just want to let him get married when the time comes."

All the eunuchs and eunuchs in the palace fell silent. The emperor is now a boiling kettle with its spout blocked. Mr. Gu poured a bucket of cold water into it. It would be strange if it didn't explode!

Mr. Gu seemed to feel that a bucket of cold water was not strong enough, so he hurriedly poured another bucket of oil, "My mother also agreed to this matter. The marriage agreed between her old man and Mrs. Chu is exchanged for Geng Tie, just waiting for the next one." We've hired you."

The emperor really couldn't bear it anymore, seeing that there was nothing around to hit him with, he stood up and walked over quickly.

Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Mr. Gu raised his head subconsciously and saw that the emperor's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, his eyes were burning, and he looked as if he was about to swallow him alive.

The emperor who came in front of him didn't care if he was in a daze or not, he kicked him out with his foot.

Mr. Gu is a real literati, and he doesn't know any martial arts at all. Perhaps it should be said that there are very few people who practice martial arts in civil servants' homes.

The emperor's martial arts are not very good, but now he is burning with anger, and he has stimulated his potential. He can do things that he couldn't do normally, such as kicking people away with one kick.

Seeing this situation, Eunuch Chen hurriedly stepped forward to stop the emperor, muttering: "Your Majesty, your majesty, the dragon body is important!" After persuading him, he gestured to the little eunuch next to him, asking him to go and see Mr. Gu Master's situation.

Mr. Gu was lying on the ground, feeling pain everywhere, what shocked him the most was that he didn't know what he did wrong, how could he make the emperor so angry? !He didn't get up after holding on for a few times, it was really painful, the little eunuch just helped the handle when he passed by, and helped him up.

The emperor was still looking at him bitterly, Master Gu didn't dare to stand up, so he knelt down again, kowtowed and said: "Your Majesty, forgive me! Your Majesty forgive me! Your Majesty forgive me!"

This kick is much better than throwing a few teacups to relieve anger. After the emperor vented, his rationality returned, and he sneered when he looked at Mr. Gu, "Forgive me? What is the crime of Aiqing? Let me hear it! "

You can tell from his appearance that he still doesn't know why he is angry, it's just such a thing, it's just such a thing that made Gu Chengzhi like this!

Master Gu was a little stuck, he really didn't know what he had done to make the emperor so angry, and now he couldn't answer the emperor's question, so he could only falter and kowtow to admit his mistake.

The emperor looked at him and felt angry from the bottom of his heart, wishing he could kick him up a few times. As soon as Eunuch Chen saw the emperor's expression, he quickly persuaded him: "Your majesty, Mr. Gu is just, just..." He said the following words He couldn't say it, but if he wanted to say it, Mr. Gu was so stupid that the emperor didn't guess a single thing right, but he did all the annoying things.

Seeing that Eunuch Chen couldn't speak to help excuse him, the emperor's spirit was extremely calm, but the anger in his mind was about to burst out of the sky, and he shouted at Mr. Gu: "Who lent you the courage to let you go to Gu? Sincere engagement! Your brother's bones are not cold, you, as an elder brother, will attack his only son, and you are not afraid of being knocked on the door by ghosts in the middle of the night! Where is your conscience, has it been eaten by dogs?!"

Mr. Gu was terrified in his heart, and his head was a little confused. Isn't this what the emperor meant? !Otherwise, how could he do this? Those people clearly said it was the emperor's intention!Is there anything else he doesn't know about? !
