Eunuch Qian looked at Gu Lichen's expression of no complaints, and felt a burst of embarrassment and emotion in his heart, thinking that Master Guoshi was really sincere to His Majesty.

After Gu Linghan left Qingping Palace, he didn't know where to go for a while.He didn't want others to see his embarrassing appearance with swollen lips, so he went to the nursery where few people usually go.

As soon as Gu Linghan walked through the winding corridor at the entrance of the brooding garden, he looked up and saw Yan Ruyu walking out holding his favorite little white peacock Yuanxiao.

Yan Ruyu came to help Xiao Yuanxiao pick out food, and it was strange to say that this peacock spirit, who was usually the most unworldly, was actually the one who loved little chicks the most in the harem.

Yan Ruyu looked at Gu Linghan head-on, glanced at his beautiful eyes, and saw the strangeness of his lips at a glance. He raised his eyebrows and asked in surprise, "Your Majesty, what's wrong with your mouth?"

Gu Linghan covered his lips with his sleeve, and only said that he was too angry, so his lips were swollen when he woke up.

However, Yan Ruyu's face suddenly changed, showing a faint tendency to get angry.He is not blind, the damage on Gu Linghan's lips is very obvious, it is clearly a mark from rubbing, but he is said to be angry?Even a child can't be fooled by this reason.

He handed over the little peacock in his hand to his servants, grabbed Gu Linghan's arm, and dragged him to the room closest to the two of them.

The chicks raised in this room are little kingfishers hatched in Biyi Niangniang's palace. They have gorgeous down feathers at a very young age, and the color is very beautiful.

The young chicks, who were busy eating with their heads down, were startled by the sound of Yan Ruyu's vigorous opening of the door, and hid in the innermost part of the nest.

Yan Ruyu was not polite at all, and her mouth was aggressive, "Suzaku, I think you have been in the world for a long time, and you forgot that you are a fire bird, right? It's so fresh, the immortal Suzaku with the innate spiritual fire is still angry? "

Gu Linghan didn't expect Yan Ruyu to be so disrespectful to him, but to expose him directly, his fair face turned red immediately, guilty and annoyed at the same time, he said in a very displeased voice, "You don't care!"

"I don't care?!" Yan Ruyu was so angry that he pinched Gu Linghan's chin, carefully looked at his wound, and tried to suppress his anger, "Tell me, what's the matter with your mouth! Which little goblin Dear... make it?"

Gu Linghan didn't expect Yan Ruyu to be so sharp and figure out what was going on so quickly. He patted Yan Ruyu's hand clamping his chin away, and evaded, "I can't tell."

Gu Linghan's attitude was firm, and he was afraid that Yan Ruyu might misunderstand, so he could only briefly explain, "In short, I did something wrong."

He thought in his heart that he was sorry for Li Chen, and he couldn't let this matter leak out, which would damage Li Chen's reputation.

Hearing Gu Linghan's words, and looking at his slightly guilty eyes, Yan Ruyu was a little puzzled. Could it be that someone deliberately seduced Suzaku, but Suzaku made it difficult for her?

But no matter what Yan Ruyu thinks, Gu Linghan is the one with a soft temper and easy to be manipulated.

With his persimmon-like temperament, can he really do that kind of thing that is difficult for others?

If he really had this idea, he wouldn't be alone by now.

The palace is only this big, and everyone in the palace knows the whereabouts of the emperor very well.

Yan Ruyu calmed down, remembering that Gu Linghan stayed in his own bedroom last night, and the only one who could stay in the emperor's bedroom was Gu Lichen who had just been made a national teacher.

Seeing Gu Linghan's appearance today, Yan Ruyu realized that there was something obviously wrong with the way Gu Lichen looked at Suzaku.

Thinking of this, Yan Ruyu frowned, her voice became colder, "Your apprentice is unknown after all, you should stay away from him."

Gu Linghan didn't understand Yan Ruyu's words very much, he thought, obviously he did something wrong to Li Chen, but now it's in Yan Ruyu's mouth, how could it be his apprentice's fault?

But he couldn't explain too much, so he could only lower his face and said displeasedly, "Li Chen is fine, Concubine Yan, as I said, you don't need to take care of my affairs."

Hearing that King Mu was grounded after being punished by the emperor for fifty years, the queen mother was very anxious and planned to intercede with the emperor to let him take back his life.

The Empress Dowager came to Qingping Palace early in the morning, but she didn't meet Gu Linghan, only Gu Lichen who had already bathed.

What happened in the court hall that day had been widely spread, and the Queen Mother naturally recognized that the man with cold brows and eyes was the current national teacher who fought with the immortal master invited by King Mu that day.

As soon as the Empress Dowager entered the palace, she sat on the main seat, and Zhu Tao consciously offered tea to her.The queen mother pinched the tea cup with her slender and delicate nails, showing a proud posture. She glanced at Gu Lichen and asked, "Are you the one who caused my son to be scolded?"

Because the Queen Mother has never been good towards Gu Linghan, Eunuch Qian also has a lot of dissatisfaction with the Queen Mother. Seeing that the Queen Mother is attacking Gu Lichen, he speaks for Li Chen, "My Majesty the Queen Mother, Mr. Li Chen is now the Imperial Teacher of the court. Your title is really inappropriate."

The Queen Mother glared at Eunuch Qian, and said displeasedly, "Eunuch Qian, what do you mean, his status is higher than that of the Ai family?"

Gu Lichen stopped in front of Eunuch Qian first, not allowing him to speak any more, and saluted neither humble nor overbearing, "I see the Queen Mother, I am the one who exposed King Mu's tricks that day."

The queen mother opened her beautiful eyes and said angrily, "What are you talking about, are you trying to provoke the feelings of the two brothers?"

Gu Lichen was neither angry nor angry, straightened his back and explained to the queen mother, "The matter of that day has been concluded. If the queen mother understands this matter seriously, she will understand that her majesty is the victim."

The Queen Mother raised her voice, "How could he be a victim?! He is licentious, and everyone in the world knows this! Gu Linghan has no talent or virtue, so why bother to occupy the throne, the Ai family has already asked him to give up the throne to King Mu, he just refuses! He is neither a direct descendant nor an elder to inherit the great line, so it is not justified in the first place!"

Gu Lichen stared at the Empress Dowager with deep and chilly eyes, his voice was still calm, "Dare to ask the Empress Dowager what is talent and what is virtue? I think that His Majesty's greatest talent is to govern Daxuan so that the sea is clear and the river is clean." Harmony. As for other aspects, it should not be the standard for judging an emperor."

"Now His Royal Highness King Mu is able to collude with the demons for his own selfish desires, intending to frame His Majesty, and leave the country's safety behind. I really don't agree with it. This is the talent and virtue that the Empress Dowager said."

"Your Majesty is enthroned, and His Majesty King Mu has been conferred the title of a prince. He has tremendous power and can even freely enter and leave the palace. It can be said that one person is under one man and more than ten thousand people! If His Majesty King Mu ascends the throne, I don't know what will happen to His Majesty at this time. Even my life..." Gu Lichen didn't continue, but everyone here didn't know that King Mu was a sanctimonious hypocrite, who appeared to be a respectful brother and friend, but in fact he was focused on the throne.

"May I ask the Empress Dowager that only His Royal Highness Mu Wang is not His Majesty in her heart?"

"You villain!" The queen mother was so choked by him that she couldn't speak, so she could only repeat this sentence to bluff, twisting the handkerchief in her hand vigorously and biting her lower lip.

"Please go back, Empress Dowager." Gu Lichen stretched out his hand to see off the guest.

The queen mother was dizzy from Gu Lichen's anger, she held Zhutao's hand, turned around in a panic and walked out the door.This trickster was so irritating, he frequently made her lose face.

Gu Lichen looked at the queen mother's back, and casually pinched a sound transmission talisman and directly shot it into her consciousness, "I would like to remind you again, those who speak falsely about the emperor should be killed according to the law! Your majesty is thinking of your kindness in nurturing!" , but as a minister, there is nothing to worry about."

The Queen Mother was frightened by the murderous intent in these words, her whole body trembled, her face that was flushed with anger turned pale like paper, she tremblingly pointed her finger at Gu Lichen, "How dare you threaten Aijia!"

Gu Lichen pretended to be innocent, "Reporting to the Queen Mother, I just didn't say anything."

She looked at Zhutao beside her to ask for confirmation, Zhutao quickly shook her head, her expression did not seem to be fake.

The queen mother is a mortal, when has she ever seen these unpredictable methods.She turned around in panic, took quick steps, and left the Qingping Palace as if fleeing, without any of her usual elegance.

Eunuch Qian laughed undisguisedly, "My lord, now you can be regarded as a sigh of relief for His Majesty."

Gu Lichen waved his hand, it was really nothing, he couldn't allow someone to slander his master.But he really didn't understand why the Empress Dowager had such a bad attitude towards Master. He looked at Eunuch Qian, "Eunuch Qian, can you tell me why the relationship between the Empress Dowager and His Majesty is so bad?"

Eunuch Qian sighed, "This matter has to start from the day His Majesty left Nine Heavens 20 years ago..."
