The days when I skipped school and opened a restaurant in ancient times

"What about me? Swear to follow the Queen Mother's determination to the death?" Lu Yunnan's medicinal properties have not completely disappeared, his head is still a little groggy, and his voice is much lower. How can the empress dowager condescend to honor and need me to be loyal to a junior with no official position and no talent?"

"I thought you were drugged and your head was dizzy. I don't want to, you are sober." Empress Dowager Shen said with a smile: "But there is one thing you said wrong. I don't want you to show your loyalty. I want to ask you. Can you kill Gu Chao for this palace?"

Empress Dowager Shen admired Lu Yunnan's angry expression, and found it interesting, "You guys have been like each other since childhood. After so many years, he, a beast, still remembers the friendship he had back then, and stood up for your Lu family to fight this muddy water."

"Heh, if Gu Chao is an animal. Then empress dowager, are you calling Xu Shuyu worse than an animal?" Lu Yunnan sneered: "Gu Chao can remember every day and night when he was a child, Xu Shuyu, your memory is so bad that you grow up After that, I forgot all the bits and pieces.”

Xu Shuyu didn't look back, he opened his mouth, wanting to say something.But it was like a lump in his throat, and he couldn't utter a word.

Lu Yunnan didn't want to waste time on this either, and asked, "Where's the bamboo branch?"

"Not dead." Xu Shuyu said with difficulty.

Not dead, not all right.

Lu Yunnan knew it well, Zhuzhi probably suffered a lot.

"Mother, Master Shen is here." Nanny Chang hurried into the hall and whispered in Shen Shu's ear.

Shen Shu ordered someone to take care of Lu Yunnan, and went out to meet Shen Qing by herself.

"Father, you are here. I thought that Gu Chao would send someone to seal the palace gate so that no one could come in."

Although Shen Qing was getting old, but he was a literati, still tall and straight like a green pine.

He looked at his daughter like a torch, and asked straight to the point: "You sent someone to pass a message, want me to lobby the imperial army led by Ruan Zheng to obey your orders?"

Shen Shu asked back: "What? Father can't do it?"

"Why would I do this?"

Hearing this, Shen Shu chuckled lightly.

"Then Father can do it." Shen Shu took out her bargaining chip and said, "Didn't Father ask me to help my niece to adopt a son from the clan as a son? If there is no imperial decree, it will be very difficult, right? Now At this juncture, does my lord father still have the time to figure out how to quickly adopt the sons of the clan?"

Shen Qing didn't like to beat around the bush, and asked straightforwardly, "Is the jade seal with you?"

"Of course, so is father willing to make this deal with me?"

Shen Shu was confident about this, so Shen Qing nodded, and he emphasized: "If this matter is not successful, you will be benevolent. Ruan Zheng is Lingling's biological father, so don't let him become a sinner forever."

"Father, don't you know about me?" Shen Shu was arrogant, "I will never fight against me."

And Gu Chao seemed to have made up his mind, and he started killing people.

Several of Gu Yunlan's close servants and eunuchs were beheaded in front of the palace, and several of Gu Yunlan's confidants were also arrested.

Naturally, Shen Shu was not far behind, and sent someone to deliver news to Gu Chao and Lu Youxiang to make the fire even more intense.

"Exchange the Tiger Talisman for Lu Zhi's life."

The indestructible alliance between Gu Chao and Lu Youxiang because of Lu Zhi also created a rift because of Lu Zhi.

In the face of the benefits at your fingertips, no one would want to give up.

Gu Chao's refusal was expected by Shen Shu, she looked at Lu Yunnan amusedly, "Look, this is the human heart. Life is not as important as the throne? Lu Zhi, don't you think so?"

Lu Yunnan seemed to have been heartbroken, and remained lifeless without saying a word.

"However, since you are useless, let's kill him. Let Gu Chao watch you die with his own eyes. Maybe it can arouse some of his conscience."

Shen Shu said slowly: "If Gu Chao has not changed his mind tomorrow, then I will have to organize an archery competition. Hang people from a high place, shoot the torso, and reward a hundred taels of silver. Shoot a limb, and reward a hundred taels of silver." Two. If you shoot in the head, you will be promoted to one rank. If you pass through the eyes, you will be promoted to two ranks."

"But before that, I want to give him something." Shen Shu asked someone to prepare a whip, and looked at Lu Yunnan, "When Gu Chao was whipped since he was a child, he never yelled. It's just that I don't know that the pampered young master Lu can Can't stand it."

As soon as the words fell, the guard's whip fell heavily on Lu Yunnan.

The severe pain made Lu Yunnan cry out, and fine cold sweat instantly broke out on his forehead.

Shen Shu was uninterested: "It seems that young master Lu can't stand it, but it's not as interesting as Gu Chao."

The blood-stained whip, and the words of tomorrow's archery rewards were transmitted to Gu Chao's ears verbatim by the person sent by Shen Shu. In the cold wind, Gu Chao held the blood-stained whip in his hand, slamming His own hand pinched blood.

He only hated himself for not being able to give birth to Shen Yishu's flesh and blood now.

"Empress Dowager, Lu Zhi is seriously injured. I hope to invite the imperial doctor..."

Before Xu Shuyu finished speaking, she was interrupted by Nanny Chang, "Shut up, what does the Empress Dowager want you to point out?"

Seeing Xu Shuyu's embarrassing expression, Mother Chang snorted, "Besides, didn't you bring the man? Before you came, did you ever think about the result?"

Xu Shuyu gritted his teeth and said nothing.

It's not that he hasn't thought about it, it's that he doesn't want to.

At dawn on the second day, Nanny Chang came in and sent word that Gu Chao was waiting outside.

"It's true that he can give up his son in exchange for balance just like his father. I didn't expect that I just learned to be affectionate. For a man, I would not hesitate to give up something that is at my fingertips." Shen Shu sneered: "Also No, he is stronger than his father. No matter how affectionate his father was back then, he still didn't let that woman go free and locked her alive in this deep palace."

After meeting Shen Shu, Gu Chao said bluntly, "Where is Lu Zhi?"

"What's the rush? Can't you think of where he is?"

Shen Shu's words reminded Gu Chao that Lu Zhi should be locked in the secret room that Shen Shu locked him in when he was young.

"Have you brought the Tiger Talisman?" Shen Shu asked.

Gu Chao looked at Shen Shu, "I didn't bring it."

"Come to save people without taking you?"

Gu Chao told the truth, "The right minister forced me to come here."

The implication is that he did not come voluntarily.He wanted the throne more than Lu Yunnan.

Shen Shu sneered, but she came to a premature conclusion that Gu Chao was really just like his father.

"Since you're here, let's invite King Jinyang to watch a unique archery competition before leaving."

Lu Yunnan was taken to the courtyard and tied to a wooden stake.

There was a row of archers standing in front, and Gu Chao sat in the back, staring at the front.

"Ma'am, Master Shen has brought Master Ruan here."

Shen Shu looked at Nanny Chang, and said strangely: "I didn't mean to come tomorrow, why did I come today."

Nanny Chang didn't know either, so she could only shake her head.It's not good for Shen Shu to ask people to come back tomorrow. Seizing power can only be done as soon as possible, there is no reason to postpone it.

"It just opened their eyes."

When Shen Qing brought Ruan Zheng in, he didn't watch the farce in the courtyard.Instead, let Shen Shu hand over Yuxi.

Shen Shu naturally refused to respond, "Father should give up on this idea, and my daughter still counts on it to save her life, and at the same time let you and Master Ruan willingly work for her daughter."

"Are you going to rebel?" Shen Qing said angrily.

Shen Shu sneered, "Father, the state officials are only allowed to set fires, and the common people are not allowed to light lamps? Why can't you do it?"

Shen Qing squinted his eyes, looking very serious.

Shen Shu suddenly felt that Shen Qing at this time was very much like the one who forced her to enter the palace for the benefit of the family back then.

"The Empress Dowager intends to rebel, but General Ruan won't do anything!"

The loud voice exploded in her ears, and Shen Shu realized that the words were spoken by her own father, her face full of disbelief.

Ruan Zheng reacted quickly and quickly drew his sword, stopping Shen Shu's next activities.

"You dare to touch me?" Shen Shu was sullen, and looked at Shen Qing, "The Imperial City Division also has people from this palace, father, do you really think that with Ruan Zheng's military strength, you can win this day?"

"Your people in the Imperial City Division have been imprisoned by King Jinyang, not only the Imperial City Division, but also the spies you placed beside His Majesty, and the officials in the court have all been uprooted." Shen Qing looked at himself with pity Poor daughter, "You are too proud, too confident in yourself."

Shen Shu looked at Gu Chao, who had already run to Lu Yunnan's side.Shen Shu realized that all of this was a scam, and said in disbelief: "Father, you and Gu Yunlan lied to me? I am your daughter! If it weren't for your original letter, I would never have believed it!"

"It's only your hand that's to blame, it's too long." Shen Qing replied.

"My hands are long?" Shen Shu sneered, "You blame me for my long hands now? Why didn't you think that my hands were long when I was working for the Shen family!"

She suddenly thought of Ruan Ling who was crying in front of her, the niece she thought was innocent but lied to her deeply, and said clearly: "I understand, it's not that my arms are stretched out. It's because you don't need my hand." Is it a pawn, right? At the beginning, I was used as a bargaining chip by the Shen family to marry into this ghostly place that eats people and seeks benefits for the Shen family. You never said a word of no. Now I am worthless, and Ruan Ling is no?"

"I'm useless, so you're trying to get rid of me, right?"

Shen Ge took a look at the madman's daughter, and said with no sadness or joy on his face, "I will plead with Your Majesty for you. You have become a devil because of thinking about your son. I beg your Majesty to see that you are the former crown prince and the eleventh prince who died young." For the sake of this, I spare your life."

Shen Shu shook her head in horror, she was not afraid of death, she died once and for all.She is unwilling to live without dignity like that, "You let me die! Let me die!"

Out of the corner of her eye, she spotted a place, and Shen Shu suddenly laughed.Even if she died, she would hold her back, "Nurse Chang! Shoot the arrow!"

Shen Qing knew that Nanny Chang knew some martial arts, and she had taken a fancy to her in the past, so she let Nanny Chang follow Shen Shu to take care of her.

He subconsciously looked for Nanny Chang, "Nurse Chang knows martial arts, don't let her shoot arrows and hurt the Queen Mother!"

The sharp arrow pierced through the air, and everyone's attention was on Shen Shu's side, thinking that the arrow was flying towards her.Just to let her die happily.

It was too late when Gu Chao realized that the arrow was flying towards him.He didn't have any weapons to resist, so he could only turn over and protect Lu Yunnan in his arms.

"Pfft", the arrow pierced his back, Gu Chao gritted his teeth and did not make a sound.

Lu Yunnan was in Gu Chao's arms, stroking his back in a panic.

Gu Chao's back was soaked in blood, it was wet.

"Gu Chao..."

Gu Chao looked at Lu Yunnan, but couldn't say a word.Confused, she fell on Lu Yunnan's body.

But Lu Yunnan heard his heartfelt voice.

【Don't cry. 】

At this time, Lu Yunnan realized that he was crying. He hugged the unconscious Gu Chao and wanted to get up, but he was injured all over his body and couldn't lift Gu Chao up.

"Who will save him! Save Gu Chao!"

Gu Chaozhong shot, Shen Qing hurriedly led people over to check.

Gu Yunlan just happened to solve the turmoil outside and led the imperial army to come.Unexpectedly, Gu Chaozhong shot into a coma.

Shen Shu knew that her fate was over, she mistrusted her biological father and niece, and ended up like this.

Taking advantage of Ruan Zheng's unpreparedness, she grabbed the sword and killed herself.

Nanny Chang wanted to go forward, but was held tightly by the guards around her.All I could do was cry out in pain, "Your Majesty!"

When she was dying of consciousness, Shen Shu saw Nanny Chang's heartbroken face in a trance, she pursed her lips and smiled lightly.

Her father and niece set up a trap with others to lure her out and catch them all.

She entered the palace for her mother's family, but was eventually abandoned by her mother's family.

In the end, Nanny Chang was the only one who really felt sorry for her.

Shen Shu slowly closed her eyes, children, mother is looking for you later.

-

The queen mother died, and the whole country mourned.

Ningjing City is covered with white flags and paper money everywhere.

Gu Yunlan pretended to cry twice, but never appeared again.

In the Jinyang Palace, there was no sense of sadness at all, on the contrary, they were beaming because Gu Chao's life was not in danger.

Nanny Chang's arrow was very accurate, but because of her age, her strength was not as strong as before, so the arrow didn't hurt the vitals.

Take good care of it and raise it, after this winter, it will be fine.

There will be no sequelae at all.

Zhuzhi was also rescued and suffered some skin trauma.Xinglin was busy taking care of him all day long, and he always talked about it, if he didn't eat too much that day, his stomach would be ruined.If he hadn't been able to follow, such things would never have happened.

Zhu Zhi was taken care of by him every day, so he was naturally embarrassed to hit him.

On the contrary, Lu Yunnan told the truth, "If you go too, Zhuzhi won't be the only one lying here."

Gu Chao can be said to be very happy these few days.

Lu Yunnan built a small bed in his room to sleep with him every night, and spoke softly and cared for him.

I was afraid of scalding him when I ate, so I blew it to cool before giving it to him.

It's not like always avoiding him before, and offered to take him to pinch the snow rabbit when the injury is better and can get out of bed.

Gu Chao takes medicine and eats on time every day.Life and rest are not healthy, so I just think that my injury will heal sooner and then go out with Lu Yunnan to pinch snow rabbits.

However, Lu Yunnan was caught in a dilemma. He has been taking care of Gu Chao these days.

Every time they accidentally looked at each other, they could hear Gu Chao's inner voice.

Fiery, intense love.

Lu Yunnan felt that he was really overwhelmed.

But thinking that Gu Chao was injured for his own sake, he couldn't leave it alone, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and take care of him.

Finally, Gu Chao's injury got better, Lu Yunnan thought about trying to mention it and leave to have a look.

And Gu Chao also looked forward to it all day long, the imperial doctor said that his injury was very good and he could get out of bed.

In other words, he and Lu Yunnan can go out and pinch snow rabbits together.

After waiting left and right, finally Lu Yunnan came.Because Lu Yunnan struggled with how to speak, he made mental preparations for a long time.

"Well, Gu Chao, I have something to tell you."

Lu Yunnan carefully looked at Gu Chao's face, after spending so many days together, Lu Yunnan has mastered a magical skill.

Even if he couldn't hear his heart, Lu Yunnan could still read Gu Chao's micro expressions.

At this moment, Gu Chao was very happy.

Lu Yunnan was a little strange and looked at him.

[You want to pinch Snow Rabbit with Zhizhi. 】

Lu Yunnan immediately bowed his head guilty, he forgot...

Xing Lin's voice came from outside the door, Lu Yunnan said as if he had been pardoned, "I'll go and have a look."

After a while, Lu Yunnan came back again, and he said apologetically, "I have relatives from my hometown, my father wants me to go back to the mansion..."

Gu Chao was a little disappointed, but he didn't say anything, he just asked people to prepare the carriage and send Lu Yunnan back home.

Lu Yunnan walked for a few days, Gu Chao stared at the snow in a daze every day.

This day, Xinglin brought some people over to take some of Lu Yunnan's supplies back to Lu's residence.

After Gu Chao knew about it, he hurried over. Xing Lin greeted Gu Chao immediately when he saw him.

Gu Chao held back for a long time before asking. "How is your young master?"

Xinglin smiled and said, "Master is very good!"

Hearing this, Gu Chao felt happy, and then he heard Xing Lin say: "Master, he gets along very well with Miss Biao, I'm afraid there will be a happy event in our house soon."

"What do you mean? Lu Zhi is getting married?" Gu Chao grabbed Xing Lin's arm with fierce eyes.

Xinglin was taken aback, nodded in a dull manner, and then shook his head, "Madam and the others guessed this way after seeing that the young master and Miss Biao get along well."

"Lu Yu is not married, how could Lu Zhi get married first?"

Gu Chao didn't want to think about Lu Zhihui's marriage. Xing Lin was terrified by his appearance, and quickly said: "The eldest son is determined not to get married, and the old lady doesn't want to delay the marriage of other sons in the family, so she opened the ancestral hall and burned incense to tell Lu family ancestors. The order of the marriages of the Lu family sons is not in order of seniority..."

While Gu Chao was in a daze, Xing Lin fled immediately.Everything was not packed, and everyone was greeted to leave.

Gu Chao smashed open the door of the wine cellar, took the preserved lychee wine and returned to the courtyard where Lu Yunnan lived before.He sat in the empty courtyard until late at night.

Burning earth dragon in winter, curled up in the warm quilt, I feel extremely good sleep.

Lu Yunnan slept very soundly these few days, and when he woke up, his hands and feet were warm.

But today, he woke up from the cold.

After opening his eyes in a daze, he found that there was a person sitting beside his bed.Just as he was about to yell, his mouth was covered.

The figure slowly approached him, with a faint smell of lychee wine.

Lu Yunnan took advantage of the moonlight to see clearly that the person who came was Gu Chao.

Zhuzhi and Xinglin are outside, how did he get in?Lu Yunnan was puzzled, but his mouth was covered and he couldn't speak.He could only stare at Gu Chao with his eyes.

Gu Chao looked into Lu Yunnan's eyes, stretched out his other hand and touched it lightly.

"nice."

Lu Yunnan didn't want him to see it, so he closed his eyes angrily.

Afterwards, he felt Gu Chao's breath getting closer, and then his eyelids were touched by something soft.As soon as it touched the lips, Lu Yunnan quickly opened his eyes and confirmed that it was Gu Chao's lips.

"The cinnabar mole is also pretty."

When Gu Chao's kiss landed between his eyebrows, Lu Yunnan trembled unconsciously.

"It's cold?"

Lu Yunnan shook his head violently.

But Gu Chao didn't listen to him, he pressed the quilt tightly, and Lu Yunnan became a silkworm baby.

Can't move.

"Gu Chao, you're drunk."

Gu Chao nodded and admitted, "Well, I'm drunk."

"What's wrong with you today? Have you been stimulated by something?" Lu Yunnan asked worriedly.

Gu Chao still nodded. He looked at Lu Yunnan intently, and said the proposal he had pondered for a long time, "Don't marry your cousin, marry me, okay?"

"Cough cough cough..." Lu Yunnan choked on his own saliva, and his face turned red from coughing.

Gu Chao was also frightened, he quickly pulled him up, and gently ran along Lu Yunnan's back.But still unwilling to give up, "I don't want your bride price."

Lu Yunnan coughed louder.

Gu Chao looked around and went to the table to pour a glass of water.

"Who told you that I want to marry my cousin?" Lu Yunnan took a sip of water and finally calmed down.

"Xinglin." Gu Chao's tone was quite sad.

Lu Yunnan scratched his head helplessly, "My cousin doesn't like me, she has someone she likes. And she has liked it since childhood..."

Gu Chao's eyes lit up, "Then you can't marry her, right?"

Lu Yunnan nodded, then looked at Gu Chao, and said firmly: "It's even more impossible to marry you."

Gu Chao didn't care about this, "It's okay, I can marry you. Let you be my only princess!"

Lu Yunnan wanted to wake up the drunk, "We are both men, why are we talking about marrying or not? It's impossible between us!"

Gu Chao looked at Lu Yunnan's face, and said seriously: "If it's possible for us, can you accept me?"

Lu Yunnan was questioned, his silence made him lose the opportunity to refute immediately.

Gu Chao said: "I will make the impossible possible."

Lu Yunnan couldn't bear to dampen Gu Chao's enthusiasm, so he just complained silently in his heart, hoping to give you what he can.

In the following days, Gu Chao followed Gu Yunlan closely like a pendant every day.

Gu Yunlan never thought that she would be so annoying to Gu Chao.

"I said, can you take a rest?" Gu Yunlan said helplessly: "There is still Xiu Mu who can rest in court. You follow me all day long and talk about giving me a marriage. Are you tired?"

Gu Chao firmly shook his head, "Not tired."

Gu Yunlan said speechlessly: "But I'm tired!"

"Then give me a marriage." Gu Chao said not at all easy to dismiss: "I agree and I will leave immediately."

Gu Yunlan had a headache, "Is the marriage you want the same as the marriage that others want? I don't have any quarrel with Lu Yu's affairs, do you think I gave Lu Zhi, who holds their family in my hand, the marriage to you?" If you are a princess, can they not take it seriously?"

Gu Chao was very considerate and made suggestions, "You can also give me to the Lu family as the main wife, but you can't have other women besides me."

"You think it's beautiful!" Gu Yunlan really wanted to pry open Gu Chao's brain to see if it was filled with water, "Is this a question of which of you two will marry? You are both men, how can you get married?" ? There has never been such a precedent in Da Zhou!"

"Then I'll set that precedent."

Gu Yunlan knew that Gu Chao was persistent, and she would not give up if she decided.He has nothing to do with Gu Chao himself, so he can only kick the ball.

"If the right minister agrees, then I have nothing to say, and I will marry you and Lu Zhi on the spot."

Therefore, Lu Sheng has a little tail following behind him every day.
