Iron Armored Emperor

Gu Lie's adoptive father recognized the fact that Gu Lie was difficult to handle very early on.

At the beginning, Gu Lie sent him to Shuzhou to recuperate, and he lived happily in Shuzhou, so no matter how others urged him to return to the capital, he wholeheartedly stayed in Furong City of Shuzhou, and lived a good life as high as the mountains and far away from the emperor.

As an emperor, Gu Lie advocated filial piety, and he was not ungrateful, so he naturally gave his adoptive father the dignity he deserved.Greetings and rewards are indispensable during Chinese New Year and festivals.

Such a big nobleman is of course the object of curry favor.

He is 60 years old, in his sixtieth year, and married a third-bedroom concubine in just half a year, so people don't know what to say.

Logically, even if Gu Lie is not good at reprimanding, he should remind him not to go too far, but Gu Lie can't say that.

Because all the concubines of Gu Lie's adoptive father were found according to the portrait of his deceased wife. They have similar eyebrows, similar figures, similar backs, as long as there are two or three places that resemble her back then. Just want to marry back.

There is a joke that the local matchmakers in Furong City have a portrait of their adoptive father and deceased wife. This portrait is not Yuelao, but the God of Wealth.

Back then in Yunmengze, when he married the third concubine, Gu Lie, who was still the lord of the Chu army, tried to persuade him politely, but he was blocked by his adoptive father with a portrait of his dead wife, so he could only remain silent.

Last year, there was good news in the backyard that the adoptive father had come to have a son, and it was really healthy and strong.At that time, there were some people who came to Gu Lie to find a way, boasting in the court hall that their adoptive father was so affectionate and never forgot his dead wife for many years.Gu Lie didn't answer at all.

How to say?Use the deepest affection, and then marry a whole yard of concubines?

So when Mu Lian made such a participation, Gu Lie was embarrassed to hear it, but he was also embarrassed in his heart, but he could only say: "This matter of marriage, the widow is a son of man, how can I teach my adoptive father a lesson instead?"

Gu Lie did not say that the adoptive father should not be involved, so he gave such an attitude that even if he couldn't say it himself, the supervisory censor of Shu Prefecture could say it, and it was considered as a support for Mu Lian.

But Mu Lian specially brought His Majesty's adoptive father out to participate, not just because he couldn't understand that pear blossoms crushed Begonia every night.

"Your Majesty," Mu Lian retorted disapprovingly, "this is not an ordinary marriage. This is an act of bullying women by taking advantage of one's power."

Mu Lian stared straight at Gu Lie and said: "As the adoptive father of His Majesty, he has a high status and full of wealth, so that those young girls are sent by the snobbish family to be concubines in the mansion of an old man in his sixties. For business! How dare he say that those women marry him willingly, and are not forced by power?"

"Furthermore, in the name of remembering his dead wife, he married a whole family of concubines, and some people brazenly said that he was deeply affectionate. Since he was deeply affectionate, why didn't he stay widowed with his deceased wife's memorial tablet? This is simply deceitful, Disgusting!"

Gu Lie understood.

This tactic refers to fighting east and west, Mu Lian is not participating in his adoptive father, he is clearly participating in Gu Lie.

Mu Lian first said that those women were forced by power.

In Mu Lian's view, his master was detained in Weiyang Palace by His Majesty.After all, according to common sense, which hero is willing to bear the infamy of sycophant?It's not that His Majesty detained his master in the palace indistinctly, how could they get mixed up?His master wouldn't be so stupid as this.

When Mu Lian mentioned his adoptive father's deceased wife again, Gu Lie was even more disgusted.

Others don't know about Gu Lie's so-called dead wife, but Mu Lian knows it well. There was no such woman in Guigu back then, but Gu Lie carefully cultivated Gu Zhao, and he didn't want to marry another wife. Mu Lian speculated according to common sense. Naturally, she thinks that this woman who is deeply loved by Gu Lie does exist, but she is not a descendant of the young master Li. Gu Lie lied to give Gu Zhao his identity.

Mu Lian never believed the rumors that the master was Uncle Gu Zhao, those messages were spread from him.

But Mu Lian didn't think about the rumors that His Majesty kissed his master's hand, and those rumors that Di Qiye and Gu Lie's dead wife looked exactly the same, he thought about it automatically.

Since His Majesty wanted to give himself a reputation as deep as the sea, why didn't he remain a widow for his dead wife, and dragged his master into the water?

Mu Lian is complaining to Di Qiye.

Before Gu Lie could speak, the official who wanted to please Gu Lie at the beginning and pinched his nose in the court hall to praise his adoptive father came out.

Who is that?That was Jiang Yan's father.

As the commander of Jinyi's guards, Jiang Yan must personally guard His Majesty if he doesn't have an important case to explain to him.

So Jiang Yan's father glared at the immoral son who was kicked out of the house by him, and then he came out and shouted: "Your Majesty, I think that the right censor is responsible for supervision, but he is marrying his adoptive father in the court hall. Messing around trivial matters is an abuse of power, so there is no need to discuss it!"

Jiang Yan lowered his head, sweating in his palms.It wasn't that he still cared about his father, but Jiang Yan suddenly realized that Mu Lian's participation probably knew about the relationship between Ding Guohou and His Majesty, but he didn't figure out that the two were in love with each other at all.

Last year, Gu Lie moved to Shuntian Mansion with his heroes and retainers. In order to refuse the family arrangement arranged by his family, Jiang Yan revealed that he was a broken sleeve.

He was almost beaten to death by his family.

Mu Lian was so angry that he was going crazy. A few days later, Mu Lian was picked on by someone in the court. He exposed himself in the court and said openly that Jiang Yan was his wife.

Jiang Yan's father was an official in the same dynasty, and he was so ashamed by the eyes of his colleagues, he called Jiang Yan to the mansion and beat him up again. The old injury did not heal, and a new injury was added. The tone of the person is gone.

On the morning of the next day, before Jiang Yan's father pretended to be disdainful when he passed by Mu Lian, Mu Lian acted preemptively, adjusted his official uniform, and bowed his hands to Jiang Yan's father, who was of a lower rank than himself, and shouted: " Lord Taishan."

Jiang Yan's father was so angry that he rolled his eyes on the spot, blood rushed to his head, and he fell to the ground and passed out without a groan.

From then on, as long as Jiang Yan's father dared to do something to Jiang Yan, Mu Lian would be able to make Jiang Yan's father so angry. After four or five times of this cycle, Jiang Yan was still stubborn, and Jiang Yan's father did not care about Jiang Yan's current status. , completely drove Jiang Yan out of the house, and even cleared the tablet of Jiang Yan's biological mother from the family hall.

Therefore, Jiang Yan's father naturally thought that Mu Lian was targeting him when Mu Lian participated in the court.

Mu Lian was still kneeling in front of Gu Lie, turned his head to look at Jiang Yan's father, bowed his hands again and said, "Master Taishan, don't get angry, although your understanding of the deepest affection is different from ordinary people, and there are four in your family. Fang’s concubine may share the same illness as her adoptive father, but this censor is indeed not pointing at Sang and scolding Huai, but complaining about injustice, expressing his feelings.”

"I also hope that Master Taishan will not be so suspicious. It is for the sake of your young wife and children to take care of your health. Your mother-in-law's memorial tablet has me and Jiang Yan every day, and I probably won't come to you to reminisce about the old days."

The snickering sounded endlessly, and Jiang Yan's father's face was flushed, as if he was about to slap him in a few minutes.

Sitting on the dragon chair, Gu Lie sighed, this little lunatic can kill three birds with one stone.

The Great Chu Emperor gave a look to Ding Guohou who was standing below Dafangfang as if he had nothing to do with him, your apprentice is too promising.

Marquis Dingguo raised his eyebrows, who are you and me?

Of course, Di Qiye also heard that Mu Lian was jealous of Gu Lie because of him, if he came out to smooth things over at this time, it would chill Mu Lian's heart, so he simply didn't speak.

This is his trust in Gu Lie.

Gu Lie almost laughed, cleared his throat, and calmly quarreled: "The court is a place to discuss matters, so noisy, how unbecoming! You Yushi came to see the widow from the court. What else do you need to do? It's nothing Disperse!"

The prime minister, Jiang Yang, talked about the assignment of the Xinke Hanlin, and finally brought the early dynasty back on track.

After the court, Mu Lian kicked and walked towards Weiyang Palace.

Jiang Yan hurried to catch up, and the two of them whispered together for a long time, Mu Lian still had the expression of ridiculing Jiang Yan's father just now, but the unhappiness in his heart disappeared a little.

Jiang Yan squeezed Mu Lian's hand, and hurried to the west of the city.

Mu Lian continued to walk towards Weiyang Palace, and bumped into Di Qiye who was waiting on the side of the road.

Mu Lian ignored this kind of master who didn't go home, as if he didn't see him, and continued to walk forward.

Di Qiye didn't know whether to laugh or cry, grabbed him by the back of the collar, followed him and walked to Weiyang Palace with him, and asked, "What's your temper?"

Mu Lian sulked and didn't speak.

Di Qiye didn't bother to say too much, seeing Mu Lian like this, he walked quietly with Mu Lian outside the Weiyang Palace, and then whispered to Mu Lian: "You like Jiang Yan, I like the one inside. "

Before turning around to leave, Di Qiye patted Mu Lian on the shoulder and warned: "Your Majesty has worked hard, don't make him angry."

Mu Lian entered His Majesty's study angrily and in a daze, and asked An to kneel down without saying a word.

He was worried about the master, so he tried every means to get the master out of the palace. Visiting His Majesty's adoptive father was only the first step in the plan.

But the master obviously likes His Majesty, and Jiang Yan also said that they are in love with each other, so Mu Lian didn't know what to do.Because Mu Lian put himself in the situation, if he was the master and Jiang Yan was His Majesty, he would not leave Jiang Yan.

But if Master continues like this, not only his reputation will be in danger, but his life will also be in danger.

Since the beginning of the world, there have been many emperors who claim to be deeply affectionate, but they only love one person. How many are unswerving?

Gu Lie usually stays with Di Qiye in the small study, but this serious study is not very useful, sitting in the official chair always feels that something is missing, and he didn't say anything at first.

Both were silent.

Gu Lie originally thought that Mu Lian was going to be furious because of his master, but he didn't expect that Mu Lian would not speak. Gu Lie, like Di Qiye, did not like to talk about private matters to outsiders. Since Mu Lian had been silent for a long time, Gu Lie opened his mouth Said: "The widow makes you a promise."

Mu Lian suddenly raised his head, staring at Gu Lie like a hunting dog.

Gu Lie's voice was tight and deep.

"If one day your master doesn't want to stay in the deep palace, he wants to leave the palace and go back to the palace."

Gu Lie almost wanted to close his ears and listen, unwilling to hear what he said.

"The widow will never force you to stay."

"And, keep him safe for the rest of his life, and not get involved in disputes."

Mu Lian's head hit the ground heavily, and he said forcefully, "Your Majesty Jinkou!"

Gu Lie promised: "Never break my promise."

I don't know how long the two of them have been facing each other in silence. As soon as Gu Lie finished speaking, he heard Di Qiye knocking on the door outside the study room, reminding him impatiently, "Come out for dinner!"

A few days later, under the urging of the supervisory censor, the adoptive father took a self-reflection book and promised not to take concubines again.As soon as Gu Lie finished reading it, Di Qiye threw the booklet aside, not knowing what to see.

"Didn't you ask the supervisory censor to tell him to move back to the capital as soon as possible?" Di Qiye asked suspiciously.

The situation in Shuzhou is unstable, and it may be about to change.

Gu Lie was also helpless.

Probably the adoptive father was afraid that he would hold him back, so he refused to return to Beijing, and he also used filial piety to block Gu Lie's mouth.But Gu Lie couldn't directly issue an order to forcibly bring him back to the capital. This would be a warning to the situation in Shuzhou.

"I've got someone to watch it," Gu Lie said with downcast eyes, "no trouble should happen."

Di Qiye smiled coolly and let the matter pass.

Under Di Qiye's urging, Gu Lie arranged a trip with Zi.

He took Gu Zhao to the west of the city.
