It was too late, Shen Ying couldn't wait for Gu Min to come in with tea, so she couldn't bear it anymore and fell asleep.

He was dreaming in a daze, when suddenly he heard Gu Min calling him to wake up, after a while, Shen Ying actually didn't feel thirsty long ago, so she waved her hand and said, "I don't want to drink anymore, I'm going to sleep ..."

But Gu Min refused to let him go, and directly reached out behind Shen Ying's back, helped him to sit up, and insisted: "The tea is upside down, the emperor should drink it before going to sleep, so as not to fall asleep and wake up thirsty." Get up and toss."

Shen Ying was so sleepy that she didn't want to argue with him, so she sat with her back against the railing of the bed, continued to sleep with her eyes closed, and waited for Gu Min to feed him water.

The water had just been boiled, so it was unavoidably hot. Gu Min lifted the teacup and patiently took a fan to cool the tea water. He waited until he felt that the steam coming out of the teacup was not so hot, and then handed the teacup to the Shen Ying said in a warm voice, "Your Majesty, drink water."

Shen Ying moved under her eyelids, barely opened them, squinted her eyes and glanced at Gu Min, only to see that under the light of the candle, the man's face was filled with tenderness, and there was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, looking at Gu Min. His eyes are indescribably affectionate.

But Shen Ying looked at Gu Min's smile, but she felt a sudden inexplicable shudder in her heart. In the middle of the night, why did the person surnamed Gu laugh like this?I always feel that there is something weird in that smile, half a smile but not a smile, half happy but not happy, as if wearing a smiling face mask on the face, it looks weird.

Because Gu Min felt that his smile was weird, the words that Gu Min asked Shen Ying to drink water just now automatically changed in Shen Ying's mind-"Da Lang, it's time to take medicine", Shen Ying was so frightened, Drowsiness disappears.

The mouth of the teacup was already close to Shen Ying's lips, Shen Ying rolled her Adam's apple, raised her hand to push the teacup away, and stared at Gu Min vigilantly, "Take a sip first."

Gu Min's eyelashes drooped, covering his eyes, "What's wrong?"

Shen Ying pushed the teacup towards Gu Min, and demanded stubbornly, "Take a sip first."

"The emperor asked the minister to drink it first, is it because he is afraid that the tea will be poisonous?" Gu Min raised his eyes, stared at Shen Ying and asked whether to smile or not.

Shen Ying smiled dryly: "Why do you think so? I'm just afraid that the tea is too hot, so I asked you to test the temperature for me first."

"I see." The smile on the corner of Gu Min's mouth deepened a bit, while looking at Shen Ying without blinking, he lowered his head and took a sip of tea, then handed the teacup to Shen Ying's mouth again, "It's not hot anymore, Shall the emperor drink?"

Seeing that Gu Min's face was normal, Shen Ying let go of the guard in her heart, secretly laughing that she was so suspicious that she even suspected that Gu Min would poison the tea, she really saw a ghost in the middle of the night.

He drank half a glass of water from Gu Min's hand, wiped his mouth with his sleeve after drinking, yawned and said to Gu Min: "It's getting late, you don't have to stay here to wait on me, go back to bed early .”

Gu Min sat without getting up, just put the teacup on the chair beside him, Shen Ying had already lay down again, saw that Gu Min was still sitting beside his bed, and asked strangely: "Aren't you leaving yet?"

Gu Min looked at Shen Ying condescendingly for a moment, and suddenly began to undress himself. Shen Ying's eyes widened involuntarily, her throat moved, and she choked on saliva, "Cough, it's so late..."

Gu Min quickly took off his outer robe, then pulled the curtain and turned over.On the bed, the movements were so smooth that Shen Ying didn't even have time to react and ask him to get down, the man's strong body was already on top of him.

"Junshu...it's so late, aren't you sleepy?" Shen Ying turned her head to avoid the hot breath sprayed from above, and discussed in a friendly voice, "You can stay overnight if you want, then You sleep outside, I sleep inside, you give way, let me move in..."

But Gu Min remained motionless, firmly locking Shen Ying under her body with both arms.

Shen Ying didn't understand what Gu Min wanted to do, she just felt that the person in front of her was very different from the Gu Min before she went out to get water, but how long has passed, how could it seem like a different person?

Shen Ying didn't know why, so she raised her hand and pushed the man's chest, and called out tentatively, "Your forgiveness?"

Gu Min suddenly pressed his index finger on Shen Ying's lips, silencing him, and then asked softly, "Does the Emperor know when I like your appearance the most?"

Shen Ying frowned, her phoenix eyes showed confusion, "Huh?"

Gu Min lowered his head slowly, and the eyes of the two met at a close distance, colliding with invisible sparks in the dark air, "I like the way the emperor is when he doesn't speak the most."

After finishing speaking, he took away the index finger that was pressing on Shen Ying's lips, and kissed Shen Ying vigorously with his slightly cold thin lips without pity, unlike the gentleness and patience in the past, this time it seemed to be ruthless, as if he was eager to kiss Shen Ying. It looks like something is left on Ying...

Shen Ying's mouth is eloquent and eloquent, he can tell black things into white things, and dead things into life, sweet words come out as soon as he opens his mouth, sworn vows are blurted out, but the result is that when he peels off the outer A layer of sweet icing, but what is hidden inside is full of deceit and lies!

Gu Min kept sucking and biting Shen Ying's lips tirelessly, this mouth that made him love and hate at the same time, he would never believe any word about liking him that came out of this mouth!



After a long night of fuss, Shen Ying slept until mid-sunlight the next day. After waking up, he supported his sore waist and recalled the night. For a moment, he felt that Gu Min was really torturing him to death. Almost thought that Gu Min wanted to kill the king!

Shen Ying saw that Gu Min helped him solve Liang Yaozu's matter, and it was considered a credit, so she endured letting him mess around last night, and when she woke up in the morning, her waist was sore and her legs were weak, but she regretted that she should not have indulged Gu Min like that, this dog Things, give him a little bit of a good face, and he won't know the severity of the attack!

And secretly made up his mind, if Gu Min dared to be so presumptuous next time, he would definitely kick him up and kick him off the bed without any hesitation!

Shen Ying finished scolding Gu Min in her heart, called the palace servants to come in to wash and dress, and asked Shuo Yu, "What time is it?"

Shuoyu replied, "It's almost time to go back to the emperor."

It's so late, Shen Ying raised her eyebrows, since Guo Jiuchen came to face the saint late at night last night and said that Liang Yaozu had admitted his crime, then he should report the result to the queen mother out of reason, so he changed his clothes and died The palace people set up the Evergreen Garden.

The emperor's royal driver had just arrived at the Evergreen Garden, and the queen mother had just returned from worshiping the Buddha in the Buddhist hall.

Shen Ying told the queen mother that Guo Jiuchen and Liang Guogong asked him to see him late at night, and then presented Liang Yaozu's confession to the queen mother for review. In your opinion, how should Liang Yaozu be punished for attempting to rape a court lady after drinking?"

The Empress Dowager put the confession aside, her complexion didn't fluctuate, she said nonchalantly: "Qiuci is just a court lady, Liang Yaozu didn't do anything to her, but it was Liang Yaozu, who was hurt by Qiuci so that he can't be humane anymore. It can be regarded as a lesson. Although Liang Guogong’s government has not been as powerful as before in the past few years, many lords in Beijing are related to his family, and the centipede is dead but not stiff. If the punishment for Liang Yaozu is too harsh , I am afraid that it will make other dignitaries in Beijing feel cold, and from the perspective of the Ai family, it is better to let this matter go."

"The Queen Mother is merciful." Shen Ying didn't understand that the Queen Mother was protecting Liang Guogong's mansion, but she didn't object. The one who is the most outstanding in every aspect, but I didn't expect his character to be so bad behind the scenes, it seems that Changping's marriage will have to be delayed for a while."

The Empress Dowager glanced at Shen Ying strangely, "Why the delay? Liang Yaozu is the only one who is bad. Aren't the others selected by the Ai family for Changping all good? Can't we just choose from those individuals?"

Shen Ying raised her eyebrows imperceptibly. She originally thought that eunuch Liang Yaozu would temporarily delay the queen mother from choosing a consort for the eldest princess of Changping, but this time the queen mother was determined to marry the eldest princess of Changping quickly. Going out, how worried are you that Princess Changping will marry well and will increase his power as the emperor?

But of course Shen Ying would not openly contradict the Queen Mother. After all, the Queen Mother is the elder of him and Princess Changping. In this era of ruling the world with benevolence and filial piety, especially in the royal family, disobedience to the elders is a great immorality.

Shen Yingpi smiled and agreed: "The queen mother is right, so let's take a closer look among these individuals."

On the way back to Chengxinzhai after leaving Evergreen Garden, Shen Ying sat in the sedan chair and considered what to do in order to successfully marry Princess Changping and Lin Che.

The Empress Dowager was afraid of his growing power, so she was anxious to marry Princess Changping to a small family. It was impossible to agree to this marriage, so she had to use some means to force her to agree even if she disagreed.

But Empress Dowager Liu is already the most powerful person in the Great Ying Dynasty, who can make her have to listen to it?

While he was racking his brains to find a solution, Shen Ying inadvertently caught a glimpse of a hundred-year-old bodhi tree planted in the palace not far away, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and immediately called Wan Zhongquan to ask: " Is the late emperor's birthday coming soon?"

Wan Zhongquan rolled his eyelids and thought about it, and replied: "Return to the emperor, yes, it will be at the end of this month."

There was a calculating smile on the corner of Shen Ying's mouth, he had a plan.



June 26 is the birthday of Emperor Jingzong of Daying Dynasty, the son of Empress Dowager Liu, who has passed away.

Empress Dowager Liu has been eating fast and reciting Buddha all these years in order to pray for Bodhisattva to bless Jingzong to be reborn in bliss, so every anniversary of Jingzong's birthday, she would invite eminent monks to come to the palace to pray for Jingzong.

A few days ago, Guo Jiuchen told Empress Dowager Liu that there was an eminent monk who had attained the Tao and wandered through Yulong Mountain. It is said among the people that this eminent monk has profound Dharma, countless followers, and great merit.As soon as Empress Dowager Liu heard this, she immediately asked Guo Jiuchen to invite the eminent monk to the palace, and on the day of Jingzong's Ming birthday, let the eminent monk chant sutras for Jingzong.

On June 26, the day of Jingzong's death, Empress Dowager Liu led all the people in the harem to the Buddhist hall, and under the auspices of eminent monks, they prayed for Jingzong together.

When the salvation is over, because there are many concubines in the harem who believe in Buddhism, and they heard that the mage this time is an eminent monk, many people bring various treasures of the Buddhist family and ask the eminent monk to help them recite scriptures and consecrate them. .

If you want the master to consecrate the treasure, you must first report your own birth date. When it was the turn of Princess Changping, the eminent monk had closed his eyes after listening to her birth date, but suddenly his face changed and he opened his eyes. Surprised, she looked up and down Princess Changping, as if she had heard something terrible.

Empress Dowager Liu noticed the change in the eminent monk's expression, and couldn't help asking: "Master, why do you look so surprised? Is there something wrong with the eldest princess' birthday?"

The eminent monk looked at the Empress Dowager, then at Princess Changping, and then chanted a Buddhist name, and said to the Empress Dowager, "Can the Empress Dowager take a step to speak?"

The Empress Dowager took the eminent monk to a corner where no one was around, and said kindly: "If you have anything to say, Master, it's okay to say it."

The eminent monk clasped his hands together and saluted, and said: "Amitabha, to be honest, the poor monk was surprised just because he did the math after hearing the horoscope of Princess Changping's birthday, and found that the horoscope of Princess Changping's birthday is actually the same as Emperor Jingzong's. There is a lot of fate between the horoscopes of the birth date."

After hearing this, the Queen Mother smiled indifferently and said, "They are brothers and sisters, so they are naturally destined."

The eminent monk shook his head, "It's not about brother and sister, but about mother and child."

The Empress Dowager's face was shocked, a little inconceivable: "Master, what did you say? How could there be a mother-child bond between them?"

The eminent monk murmured: "Amitabha, Emperor Jingzong and the Empress Dowager are destined for mother and child in this life, but Princess Changping is destined for mother and child in the next life. In addition, the poor monk can still think that Princess Changping is the fate of the Phoenix, and the son born in the future , will also confer kings and worship ministers, which is beyond words."

The Empress Dowager was dubious: "Master's words are serious?"

The eminent monk recited the Buddha's name: "Amitabha, monks don't lie. If the queen mother doesn't believe it, it's like the poor monk didn't say this. karma and chance meeting are all fate, like dreams and bubbles, like dew and lightning."

The Empress Dowager prayed to God and worshiped Buddha all these years in order to make her dead son have a good birth in the next life. According to this eminent monk, Jingzong is very likely to be reborn in the belly of Changping Princess Changping in his next life. Have not heard.

Empress Dowager Liu said eagerly: "Master, Master, Aijia didn't say that he didn't believe it, Aijia believed in you! Please tell me, me, when will I see my son again?"

Empress Dowager Liu also cared about it but was in chaos, for a while she even forgot to call herself "Aijia".

Her expression was sad and excited, no matter how greedy she was for power, no matter how cold-blooded and ruthless, at this moment she was just a poor mother who desperately wanted to see her dead son again, no matter how unbelievable it sounded, No matter how crazy she is, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, she is not willing to give up.

The eminent monk sighed: "Amitabha, since the Empress Dowager believes in the poor monk, the poor monk will tell the truth. Emperor Jingzong and Princess Changping have a mother-child relationship, but whether they can become a mother and child in the end depends on Emperor Jingzong and Princess Changping. Does the future husband-in-law have a father-son relationship?"

Empress Dowager Liu asked anxiously: "Can the master calculate the birth date of the person who is related to my son? As long as we choose a son-in-law for Changping Princess according to the birth date, will my son be reborn as the eldest princess?" in stomach?"

The eminent monk stroked his beard and murmured: "It's not difficult to calculate a person's fortune after knowing a person's birth date, but it takes a lot of time to know a person's birth date backwards, and the poor monk is not sure that the calculation will be accurate."

Empress Dowager Liu clasped her hands together and begged repeatedly: "Master, please be sure to do the math for Aijia. If Master can help Aijia achieve his wish, Aijia will ask the emperor to make you a national teacher, and then we will serve you in the capital. The master built a temple and let you be the host!"

The eminent monk smiled slightly, and said calmly: "Amitabha, the poor monk is just a wandering monk who is used to traveling all over the world. To the poor monk, these worldly names are just fetters in the world of mortals, like passing clouds, meaningless. It was revealed that the poor monk only told the queen mother the secret because of her deep love for her son and sincerity to worship the Buddha, not for the sake of fame and fortune. Since the queen mother sincerely asks for it, the poor monk will try his best to give it a try. "

He wanted neither fame nor profit, that is to say, this monk had no reason to lie to her with such a thing.

Empress Dowager Liu believed in the eminent monk's words even more, as if she regarded the eminent monk as a living Bodhisattva who would allow her to see her son again, and immediately ordered the palace staff to prepare a palace for the master, and asked the master to stay in the palace to entertain him.

In addition to being more courteous to eminent monks, Empress Dowager Liu's attitude towards Princess Changping has also changed greatly.

Originally, Empress Dowager Liu had always been indifferent to the concubine Princess Changping, letting her fend for herself. Suddenly, she ordered people to send all kinds of jewelry, silk, satin and supplements to Princess Changping like running water, and even treated her Hush and ask for warmth, caring, as if caring for his own daughter.

The palace people were very puzzled by this, and they were surprised that they didn't know where the Changping Princess burned the high incense, so she suddenly got the favor of the Queen Mother. It used to be that a phoenix with feathers is not as good as a chicken, but now it is about to become a real phoenix.

In less than half a day, the news about Empress Dowager Liu and Princess Changping spread throughout the palace, and naturally it inevitably reached Shen Ying's ears.

After Shen Ying heard Wan Zhongquan tell him the gossip, he just laughed and said nothing, only he knew in his heart that it was the princess Changping who burned some high-quality incense, but the Empress Dowager Liu believed the words of the so-called eminent monk, and she had made Changping Changping The princess regarded it as a tool to allow her son to be reincarnated as a human being. For the sake of her son, she naturally had to take good care of Princess Changping.

Empress Dowager Liu holds great power, aloof, and controls the fate of everyone, and her only weakness is her obsession with her son who died early.

Shen Ying has long seen that Empress Dowager Liu prayed to God and Buddha sooner or later, not to ask Buddha to bless her, but to pray for Jingzong, so only Empress Dowager Liu would believe in the absurd nonsense of reincarnation, if this is the case, then It can't be blamed that he took advantage of the only remaining human nature in Empress Dowager Liu, and used her motherly heart to promote the marriage between Princess Changping and Lin Che.

"Your Majesty, Gu Shaojun is seeking an audience outside."

The little eunuch came to report suddenly, Shen Ying was writing the notes, didn't look up, just waved his hands, "Let him in."

Gu Min came in to greet him, and Shen Ying put down the imperial brush in his hand, looked at him strangely and asked, "Why did you come to the palace all of a sudden?"

As soon as Liang Yaozu's case was settled, Gu Min returned to the capital. Counting it, the two hadn't seen each other for almost ten days.

Gu Min held a box in his hand, and said with a faint smile, "Reporting to the emperor, I heard that there is an eminent monk in the palace, so I want to ask for a consecrated treasure from the eminent monk to present to the emperor. .”

Shen Ying looked at the box in Gu Min's hand, and asked with interest: "What treasure? Open it for me to see."

Gu Min stepped forward and opened the box for Shen Ying to see. There was a mirror inside. The frame of the mirror was made of sterling silver, and it was inlaid with various gemstones and colored glazes. It seemed to be of great value.

Gu Min explained with a smile: "Your Majesty, this mirror is called the Eight Treasures Glazed Mirror. It is a Buddhist treasure. It is said that it can reflect past and present lives. I specially took it and asked the master to consecrate it, hoping that the Buddha can bless you and your majesty. For a long time, the master said, as long as this mirror is not broken, I will be able to get my wish."

What Buddhist treasures can still reflect past and present lives, isn't it a lie?

Shen Ying didn't believe this, she lost interest as soon as she heard it, waved her sleeves, and pointed casually to the side: "I know, I know, just put the mirror there."

Gu Min said worriedly: "The emperor must take good care of this mirror. If the mirror is broken, then the minister and the emperor may... end their fate."

Shen Ying is very disapproving of this kind of strange power and chaos, but it is just a mirror, what can it mean if it is broken?She nodded perfunctorily and said, "Don't worry, don't worry, for the sake of you and me, I will take good care of it, and it must not be broken."

Gu Min didn't say anything else, he found a shelf for the mirror and put it away, then he left.

Seeing Gu Min walking away so happily all of a sudden, Shen Ying was not used to it. Is this the jealous Gu Junshu he knew?Maybe there is some urgent business on the body, let's come to the palace by the way, Shen Ying guessed, but didn't take it to heart.

Coincidentally, two hours after Gu Min left, Ling Qingheng suddenly came to the palace with a token to look for Shen Ying.

This time, what Ling Qingheng brought to Shen Ying was the news about the mother and son that Shen Ying asked him to monitor, far away in the palace, Concubine Feng and King Qi.

With her hands behind her back, Shen Ying paced back and forth slowly in the study. After Ling Qingheng finished speaking, her face became serious, "You mean, King Qi is not really sick, his stupidity is actually because Concubine Feng bribed the imperial concubine. Physicians and nurses, when King Qi was raised in Shou'an Palace, did they drug King Qi's diet?"

Ling Qingheng: "Going back to the emperor, that's good. Not long after you and the queen mother left the palace, King Qi returned to normal. Cao Min also privately checked the imperial doctor who was in charge of treating King Qi, and found that he and Concubine Feng's natal family are distant relatives." , and now he has been sick and returned home."

Shen Ying sneered coldly: "He can even deal with his own son, this Concubine Feng is a ruthless character, that's right, someone who can live to this day after giving birth to a son under the Empress Dowager Liu's hand must not be a soft persimmon. Qingheng, please continue to help me keep an eye on their mother and son in the palace, and please pay more attention to the Feng family as well."

Ling Qingheng said: "The grassroots obey the order."

Shen Ying paced back and happened to pass by the shelf where the eight-treasure glazed mirror was placed, only to hear a clear and crisp sound behind him, Shen Ying looked back and saw the precious mirror that Gu Min gave him, the frame was still in good condition Standing there, the mirror inside was inexplicably shattered into several pieces!

Shen Ying was taken aback, how could such a good mirror suddenly shatter?He didn't touch anywhere. Is this mirror made of tofu?So weak?

Suddenly, he recalled what Gu Min said when he gave him this mirror, "If the mirror is broken, then the fate between the minister and the emperor may be over."

The words were still in her ears, Shen Ying couldn't help but glanced at Ling Qingheng who was next to her, and couldn't help swallowing, no way, is there such a wicked way?

Seeing that Shen Ying's complexion was not good, Ling Qingheng asked concerned: "Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?" He glanced at the broken mirror and felt a little strange, "This mirror was placed on the shelf in good condition, why did it suddenly shatter?"

Shen Ying felt a little guilty, and was already thinking that if Gu Min found out that the mirror was broken, that vinegar spirit didn't know how to make trouble with him, so she was not in the mood to pay attention to Ling Qingheng for the time being, and said with a mournful expression on her face: "If there is nothing wrong, you can leave first Well, I have something else to do."

When Ling Qingheng stepped back, Shen Ying walked to the shelf and picked up a broken lens, which made him frowned and gave him a headache. This broken lens... can it be reunited?

The author has something to say: Gu Min: Master, I have realized that the mouth is for kissing, not for talking nonsense.
