After rebirth, the empress was spoiled by the emperor's uncle like a little girl

At the hour of You on this day, the sun was setting in the west.

In the Zhaoshi of the Eastern Palace, Abao received the imperial edict from the old emperor.

As Abao had expected, the old emperor decided to stay in the Lantai Palace temporarily, and Abao personally investigated the case of the missing tribute from Johor.

Next, Gu Qijue, the commander of the Pacification Division, assisted from the side.

Eunuch Desheng congratulated him and said, "Your Highness has been highly appreciated by His Majesty for suppressing the Liangshan rebellion. If this is accomplished, Your Highness will have done another great deed in front of His Majesty."

Upon hearing this, A Bao looked at Gu Qijue with a sinister smile.

This was the first time she had seen Gu Qijue since Xuanyuan Wu died in Liangshan.

Gu Qijue hasn't changed much.

The black robe and light armor of the commander of the Pacification Division looked sinister and deep.

Also, the eerie smell of paper money ashes on his body still lingered.

A Bao stroked the imperial edict in his hand thoughtfully, "Eunuch Desheng, you have been traveling hard all the way. Please take this little money for tea."

As he spoke, Lu Lang stuffed a gold ingot into Eunuch Desheng's hand at the right time.

Eunuch Desheng secretly weighed the golden bun and said with satisfaction: "Your Highness, during the Lanting Night Banquet, the Johor State Emissary sent a dancer, who is now favored by Your Majesty."

Po wasn't surprised.

Being attracted by beautiful women is a daily routine for the old emperor. If one day the old emperor loses interest in beautiful women, she would suspect that the old emperor has gone insane.

But after Eunuch Desheng gave this news, Abao still chuckled and gestured to Lulang.

Lu Lang understood what she meant, and when she sent Eunuch Desheng to the gate of the East Palace, she stuffed another gold ingot into the old man's hand.

Only then did Eunuch Desheng leave with a smile on his face.

At the same time, in the East Palace Zhaoshi, Lan Ying was ordered to deliver egg milk and green plum wine.

Although Xuanyuan Fengran's stomach-nourishing recipe contained many medicinal ingredients, it had no bitter taste at all, and even had a light fragrance after taking it.

Abao took just one bite and couldn't give it up.

Lan Ying placed the white porcelain bowls and chopsticks on the tea table.

A Bao stood up from behind the desk, walked to the tea table, and sat down on the couch.

The flower-facing windows of Zhaoshi's room were open, and green willows were swaying gently, bringing a gentle breeze.

The afterglow of the setting sun fell into the room, dividing A Bao and Gu Qi Jue into one light and one dark.

In the past, A Bao would probably politely invite Gu Qijue to drink a cup of hot tea, but now when she sees him, she always thinks of him as Pei Guichen's accomplice in usurping the throne.

Thinking of this, A Bao slowly sipped the milk.

Gu Qijue held the sword, crossed his arms and stood not far away with an expressionless face.

There was a long silence, and neither of them spoke.

But, Gu Qijue was actually looking at A Bao standing in front of the flower window.

She is a little different now.

Her black hair was like clouds, and the gold and jade hairpin was clear and beautiful. Her eyes and eyebrows were delicately carved, and she looked bright and lively.

Although he hated her, he had to admit that what the envoys said was right.

Princess Diyang is a rare beauty.

Inexplicably, the princess standing by the flower window reminded Gu Qijue of the wedding ceremony of Princess Diyang not long ago.

On that day, as a court official, he was also among those watching the ceremony.

At first, he thought she was forced to marry Xie Wuai.

After years of interrogation in the Western Prison, he could see clearly that although she and Xie Wuai had a close relationship, it was only a sister-brother relationship, not a love relationship between a man and a woman.

But on the day of the wedding ceremony in Chongde Hall, she took the initiative to extend her hand to the groom.

At that time, the joy and anticipation in her eyes were real.

Does she really like Xie Wuai?

Just as Gu Qijue was horrified, a little tiger cub rushed in from outside.

It wagged its tail happily and danced around Po's skirt.

A Bao put down the white porcelain bowl, bent down and picked up the little tiger cub. While scratching its chin, he asked with a smile: "Why did you come here by yourself? Where is your father?"

"Meow meow meow~"

The little tiger cub found a comfortable position in Po's arms and happily swung the little bell.

Only then did Po notice that there was a small note in the small bell around its neck.

She pulled out the small note from the small bell, opened it and saw that it was written by her uncle Feng Ran. The handwriting was very clear and contained only one sentence.

Johor tribute, Chuhe Restaurant.
