The Regent makes me unstoppable [Transmigration Book]

On the second day, Shengjia returned to Luan, and the three-day spring hunting ended in various accidents.

The wound on Gu Min's left arm hadn't healed, so he couldn't go back to the capital on horseback. Wan Zhongquan arranged a carriage for Gu Min, and he followed closely behind the imperial servants. It belongs to the queen.

The concentration of the holy family makes those who hear it speechless.

Gu Min originally planned to let Cang Falcon dress up as a guard and return to the capital together with the imperial army, but Guo Jiuchen ordered Jin Yiwei to strictly count the number of imperial guards and check the identities of the ministers and their family followers in order to track down the assassin's whereabouts.

In desperation, Gu Min had no choice but to let Cang Falcon change into the eunuch's clothes and hide at the bottom of the carriage. After returning to Beijing, he would take advantage of the bustling crowds on the street and return home when no one was paying attention. Unknowingly left.

No matter how much Guo Jiuchen wanted to kill him, it was impossible for him to think that the person who assassinated him would collude with the person who sacrificed his life to save him. I'm afraid he was still wondering why so many guards were dispatched, but the assassin would still be nowhere to be seen. It can be checked, as if it disappeared out of thin air.

Yu Jia returned to the palace, Gu Min went back to Lanyue Zhai to recuperate, Jiang Shui, who had changed back to the eunuch's uniform after a while, brought tea in, walked to the table, put the teacup in Gu Min's hand, then took a step back, his eyes widened. Gossipingly looked at Gu Min.

Gu Min lifted the lid of the cup, picked up the cup of tea with one hand, put it to his lips and blew, and said calmly, "Speak up if you have something to say."

Jiang Shuiping smiled, and asked in a low voice, "I heard that you had a great time with the emperor last night? You still have injuries on your hands. Why don't you restrain yourself and just let the little emperor mess around?"

Gu Min took a sip of tea, "It's none of the emperor's business."

"It's none of his business, then whose business is it?" Jiang Shuiping blinked, a little in disbelief, "Don't say it, you took the initiative? No, I said Gu Junshu, you can't be real Do you like that little Hunjun? This is not at all like what you can do in normal times!"

Gu Min glanced at Jiang Shuiping indifferently, "What nonsense, I was just testing the emperor's attitude last night."

Jiang Shuiping rubbed his chin: "Testing attitude? What? Do you suspect that the little emperor is lying to you?"

Gu Min glanced out the window, but said nothing.

Before, he did suspect that the emperor was hypocritical towards him, but after last night... his doubts can be almost dispelled.

"Since it's a test, how did you make your wound open again?" Jiang Shuiping coldly snorted in disbelief, "Just say you didn't make it to the end!"

Gu Min's eyes flickered, but he only used his legs, so it shouldn't be considered the last step.

Jiang Shuili noticed that the base of Gu Min's ears seemed to be red, and immediately pointed his finger at him, fussing, "Why are your ears red? You and Hunjun really did a fake show, didn't you?"

Gu Min lowered the corners of his mouth, and after tensing his expression, he looked at Jiang Shuili and said softly, "Yes or no, what does this have to do with you?"

Jiang Shuiping clenched his fists and beat his palms, and said heartbrokenly: "I'm afraid you will fall into it! Those operas are sung, how lucky kings have been since ancient times, don't be fooled by the sweet words of that little foolish king! His mouth doesn't know how to coax you!" How many people have passed, when it comes to playing with feelings, how can you be an opponent?"

Gu Min turned his gaze, and said very calmly: "You worry too much, I know what I'm doing."

Jiang Shuiping confirmed again, "Are you really not interested?"

Gu Min said without hesitation: "No."

Seeing his calm expression, Jiang Shuipi didn't seem to be lying, so he believed it halfway, sighed and heaved a sigh of relief, "That's good, that's good, I know you're big-minded and thoughtful, but Well, you are young after all, and you have little experience in love, if you accidentally jump into the fire pit of love and love, then I, Jiang, will really be ashamed of the prince's entrustment to me!"

"Okay, don't say a few words." Gu Min pointed to the door, "Close the door, I have business to discuss with you."

"Okay!" Jiang Shuiping strode over to close the door, then turned around and asked, "What's the matter?"

"I saved Guo Jiuchen's life the day before yesterday. He should have some trust in me now. He has to take this opportunity to rescue his adoptive father from prison." Gu Min waved at Jiang Shuiping, motioning Jiang Shuiping to approach He himself, then took out a medicine bottle from his sleeve and put it in Jiang Shuiping's hand, and said in a deep voice, "You find a way to go to the imperial prison and take this bottle of medicine for my adoptive father by visiting the prison. Take this medicine Afterwards, people will have pimples all over their bodies, high fever, symptoms like smallpox, then I will try to ask Guo Jiuchen to let my adoptive father get out of prison for medical treatment, with the grace of saving my life, I think Guo Jiuchen will not refuse me."

After hearing this, Jiang Shuiping nodded again and again, "Okay, I'll go tomorrow!"

Gu Min pressed his arm, "Don't worry, Guo Jiuchen is a suspicious person. If your adoptive father falls ill just after you visit the prison, it will definitely arouse Guo Jiuchen's suspicion."

Jiang Shuiping: "Then what should we do?"

Gu Min thought for a while and said, "It's going to be summer now, and spring and summer are the seasons of smallpox outbreaks. There should be smallpox patients in Beijing. If the adoptive father happened to be exposed to the things used by smallpox patients, he would get smallpox. Strange."

Jiang Shuipi worried: "But you are not afraid that the prince will really contract smallpox?"

Gu Min lowered his eyes and fell into a burst of memories, and after a while, he explained the reason: "I also had smallpox when I was young, and my adoptive father also contracted it when he took care of me. Later, thanks to a wandering alchemist who passed by Minyang, he rescued me. We, smallpox, once you get it once, you will never get it again, so you don't have to worry about your adoptive father getting infected. Also, it's not easy for you to come forward about this matter. Everyone in Beizhen Fusi knows you. Cang Falcon will do it. The dark chess pieces we buried in Beijing should also be activated."

Jiang Shuiping nodded solemnly, "Okay, I see."

Gu Min looked at him with a solemn expression, and said solemnly: "Remember that we only have this chance, and we can't make mistakes. Guo Jiuchen is suspicious. If he can't rescue his adoptive father this time, I'm afraid even I will be suspected by him, and he will be full at that time." All games are lost."

—

Shen Ying returned to Yongle Palace, changed her clothes, and had to go to Shou'an Palace to greet Empress Dowager Liu to show her filial piety.

When I went there, Empress Dowager Liu had just finished worshiping the Buddha, and there was a strong scent of sandalwood in the Shouan Palace.

Shen Ying stood outside waiting for the Empress Dowager to come out of the Buddhist hall. Through the bead curtain, she glanced at the altar enshrining Guanyin Bodhisattva. Avalokitesvara's face was obscured by the curling cigarettes, making it hard to see clearly.

Shen Ying is a materialist, and has never believed in these ghosts and gods, but this Empress Dowager Liu, who seems to be kind and kind, is actually cruel and merciless. What is she begging for all day long?

Is it possible that a bodhisattva will not distinguish between good and evil, and protect a person who does evil?

Shen Ying sneered silently, Empress Dowager Liu worshiped Buddha, I'm afraid she didn't really believe in Buddhism, otherwise, why didn't she know that there is a theory of reincarnation in Buddhism, and the evil she did in this life will be retributed to her in the next life?

So maybe it's just that I have done too many bad things, and I just want to find peace of mind for myself.

When the queen mother came out of the Buddhist hall, Shen Ying hurriedly put on a respectful look, saluted and said, "Please let the queen mother's phoenix body rest in peace."

Empress Dowager Liu smiled kindly at him, and signaled Shen Ying to sit down, "I kept the emperor waiting for a long time. How is the harvest of this spring hunting?"

Shen Ying laughed and said: "Reporting to the Empress Dowager, this is the first spring hunting held by my sons and daughters since he ascended the throne. Secondly, it also made me feel very gratified to see that I have produced a large number of outstanding talents."

Empress Dowager Liu sat next to Shen Ying with the support of her maidservant, she nodded, and said, "The Emperor loves talent, and I understand. But," Empress Dowager Liu paused, then turned to look at Shen Ying, "The emperor is going out. Outside, every word and deed represents the royal family, one should abide by the etiquette and be cautious in words and deeds, how can one act so unruly in front of so many ministers and officials? Wouldn't it hurt the face of the royal family?"

Shen Ying knew what Empress Dowager Liu was referring to as soon as she heard it, the corner of her mouth curled up imperceptibly, and the light in her eyes turned cold.

Although the Empress Dowager did not go to the spring hunting due to illness, her eyes and ears are all over the capital, and she has placed her eyeliner everywhere. Look, he has only been back to the palace for less than an hour, and the God of Ears came to Shouan Palace to chew his tongue. .

Fortunately, he had already prepared his speech.

Although Gu Min caused him a lot of trouble after drinking the bowl of deer blood wine last night, it also gave him a chance to get rid of Concubine Feng by mistake. "Accidentally" discovered that the deer blood wine was drugged?

Since Concubine Feng is not benevolent, don't blame him, the emperor, for being unrighteous.

Shen Ying lifted up her clothes, walked up to Empress Dowager Liu, and apologized: "What the empress dowager taught me is that what happened last night was indeed a mistake, but there is something hidden in this matter, and it is not what other people think. Like that."

Empress Dowager Liu raised her delicately drawn thin eyebrows: "Oh? How should I say it?"

Shen Ying glanced at the palace, coughed, and said in a deep voice: "Everyone else go out, I have important matters to discuss with the Queen Mother."

Empress Dowager Liu's maidservant took a look at Empress Dowager Liu's eyes, and after Empress Dowager Liu nodded, she called all the eunuchs and maids to leave the palace.

When only the emperor and the empress dowager were left in the palace, Shen Ying sat down again, turned around and said to the empress dowager, "Does the empress dowager know that Concubine Feng also went to this spring hunting?"

"Of course the Ai family knows that King Qi is still young, and Concubine Feng followed him to take care of him," Empress Dowager Liu asked strangely, "Is there something wrong?"

Shen Ying pulled her lips, and a sarcasm appeared on her face, "The inappropriate thing is that Concubine Feng brought a niece with her this time. This girl's name is Feng Zhiyun, and she is the daughter of Feng Baoji, the servant of the Ministry of Industry. Then Mrs. Feng gave me a bowl of deer blood wine last night under the order of Concubine Feng, but I was delayed because of something and I didn't bother to drink it, but Gu Shaojun finally drank it, and the Queen Mother, guess what happened?"

Empress Dowager Liu frowned: "What's the matter?"

Shen Ying raised her chin, with an expression of displeasure on her face, "They knew that you, the queen mother, wanted to choose a concubine for me, so they made a poisonous plan and put an aphrodisiac in the deer blood wine, in order to let me drink it and be happy. Mrs. Feng, Mrs. Feng can successfully enter the palace and become a concubine. Concubine Feng's intentions are so sinister, it's simply abominable! Luckily, Gu Shaojun blocked this catastrophe for me, so I won't fall into their trap!"

Empress Dowager Liu's eyes narrowed after hearing this, "Is there such a thing?"

Shen Ying nodded and said: "There is an imperial doctor who can testify. If the Empress Dowager does not believe it, you can call the imperial doctor to come and ask."

Empress Dowager Liu sat upright and pondered for a while, then said: "No need, the Ai family already knows about this matter."

Shen Ying smirked secretly, and said while the iron was hot: "Queen Mother, you must have heard that Gu Shaojun made a great contribution to this spring hunting. He first saved Guo Daban regardless of his own safety, and then helped me break it. Concubine Feng's treacherous scheme, I think Gu Shaojun must be rewarded properly."

Empress Dowager Liu leaned back when she heard the words, with a reluctant expression on her face, she asked in a drawn-out voice: "What else does the emperor want to reward him? He is now a young monarch, and he was promoted from the third rank not long ago. Ai family sees that it is not appropriate to enter the seal again, it is better to reward some gold and silver."

Shen Ying disagreed and said: "Jun Shu is open-minded and refined, and has never cared about things outside of the body such as money. It is perfunctory to reward with money."

Empress Dowager Liu sneered: "Your Majesty, you have to dote on Gu Shaojun with restraint. Aren't you afraid that the officials will say that you are partial and that it violates fairness?"

"Why am I selfish?" Shen Yingyang said in a straight voice, "Gu Shaojun first saved the important officials of the court, and later saved me. With these two merits, what is wrong with rewarding him with the title of Marquis? I want to see who dares Talk nonsense!"

Empress Dowager Liu was very surprised, "You actually want to make him a Marquis?!"

Shen Ying had one hand across her chest.Standing up before him, he said calmly: "That's right! I have decided to make Gu Shaojun the Marquis of Linyang to honor his achievements!"

No wonder the Empress Dowager was so shocked. You must know that the Marquis is a super rank, and his status is even more noble and prominent than a first-rank official. The position of duke has always been only granted to the emperor's relatives and very few meritorious officials. The emperor wants to grant Gu Min the title of Marquis of Linyang , that means that Gu Min has jumped from a mere male favorite to a prince and aristocrat, and his status has undergone an earth-shaking change!

Let's put it this way, from now on, even the Grand Scholars of the Cabinet will salute Gu Min when they see him!

Naturally, Shen Ying deliberately pushed Gu Min to the forefront, making him a target of public criticism.

Didn't Gu Min want to curry favor with Guo Jiuchen?He would like to see, because he disobeyed Empress Dowager Liu because of Gu Min, whether Empress Dowager Liu can tolerate Gu Min in the future.

Empress Dowager Liu's face was gloomy and uncertain, Shen Ying was so angry that she could not speak for a long time, Shen Ying took the opportunity to say: "If the Empress Dowager has nothing else to do, the minister there will leave first."

When the emperor left Shou'an Palace, Empress Dowager Liu immediately ordered someone to pass on Guo Jiuchen.

Guo Jiuchen hurried into the palace, Empress Dowager Liu was still angry, and asked Guo Jiuchen with a sullen face: "The emperor just came to pay his respects to Ai's family. He said that Concubine Feng asked her niece to give the emperor medicine. Is this true or not?"

Naturally, Guo Jiuchen hadn't heard of this incident, but he could roughly guess what happened last night by thinking about it.

"Back to the Empress Dowager, this old slave is really not very clear about this matter, but Concubine Feng intends to let her niece enter the palace to choose a concubine. This old slave does know that Concubine Feng brought her niece to the emperor to greet the emperor in the middle of the night before. It's not surprising that she would do such a thing."

Empress Dowager Liu has now transferred her anger to Concubine Feng, slapped the armrest of the chair and said with a sneer: "Yes, it's like what that bitch would do. It shouldn't be the emperor who wronged her. Bitches, they can't protect themselves, and they are delusional." To win over the emperor, she, Feng's daughter, wants to be a queen? Let her dream come true!"

Guo Jiuchen said: "The old slave guesses that it may be that Concubine Feng wants to coax the emperor to agree to her and King Qi's marriage, so she can't wait to let her niece be favored by the emperor."

"Dare to use these lowly tricks under the eyes of the Ai family. The Ai family must let her know what it means to regret. When Gaozong was alive, Concubine Shu, a concubine, often coaxed Gaozong to take golden pills from her. If it wasn't for her, Emperor Gaozong wouldn't have died so young at such a young age." The hatred in Empress Dowager Liu's eyes could not be appeased, and she said angrily, "The only thing she relies on is the son of King Qi. Well, the Ai family wants to see what kind of disturbances she can cause without this son!"

Guo Jiuchen persuaded gently: "The queen mother calms down, it is not worthwhile to lose her body because of this kind of popularity."

Empress Dowager Liu shook her sleeves and stood up, "Come on! Pass on the decree of the mourning family. Concubine Feng is disrespectful and has lost her virtue. From now on, she will be punished behind closed doors and thinking about her mistakes. Without the decree of the mourning family, she must not leave the palace for half a step. In addition, King Qi will be brought to the birthday party. Come An Gong, from now on King Qi will be taught by the Ai family himself!"

In this era when mothers are more expensive than children, all the glory and wealth of Concubine Feng in the future will be tied to King Qi, and King Qi is the life of Concubine Feng.Genzi, without King Qi, it would undoubtedly make her more uncomfortable than killing her directly.

Guo Jiuchen cupped his hands and praised: "The empress dowager handled it wisely."

"Don't be so busy flattering the Ai family, the Ai family still has something to ask you." The Empress Dowager Liu turned around and looked at Guo Jiuchen dissatisfied, "Didn't you say that you should take advantage of this spring hunting to give the emperor a good job?" Are you looking for a candidate for the concubine? Why do you still let the emperor spoil that Gu Shaojun?"

The wrinkles on Guo Jiuchen's face were crowded into a pile, and he apologized with a smile: "Forgive the queen mother, the old slave also wants the emperor to become queen as soon as possible, but the emperor didn't even look at the beauty that the old slave sent to the emperor. In this way, the old slave really can't control it."

Empress Dowager Liu thought about it for a while, then doubted: "Could it be that the emperor is only interested in men?"

Guo Jiuchen nodded in agreement, and said in a low voice: "In my humble opinion, it doesn't really matter if the emperor stands or not. Queen Mother, have you forgotten that Emperor Taizong has no children, and Emperor Gaozong can only inherit the throne when he is under Taizong's knee?" If the emperor insists on not establishing a queen, we just need to choose an obedient child from the clan to adopt under the emperor's name, wouldn't you also have a prince in your hand?"

After listening to Guo Jiuchen's words, Empress Dowager Liu thought carefully for a while, then slowly sat down and said, "There is indeed some truth in what you said, but Ai's family is still not at ease, do you know what the emperor said when he came to Ai's house just now? He actually said that he would make Gu Shaojun Marquis of Linyang!"

Guo Jiuchen was also greatly surprised, "There is such a thing?"

Empress Dowager Liu nodded with a calm expression: "Even if the emperor only likes men and not women, the Ai family can't just sit and watch him favor Gu Shaojun alone. No matter whether it is the former court or the harem, the Ai family does not want to see a situation where one person dominates. What's more, this Gu Shaojun's background is still..."

Guo Jiuchen hurriedly said: "Could it be that the queen mother suspects that Gu Shaojun has hidden evil intentions? But during the spring hunting, he even sacrificed his life to save the old slave's life. If he really came back to take revenge, shouldn't he wish that the old slave was killed by the assassin?"

Empress Dowager Liu sneered and said: "You are really old, the older you become, the more confused you become, and the more you live, the softer your heart is. Although he swore in front of Aijia last time that he didn't want to care about the past and was willing to be loyal to Aijia, he still has to be careful. .”

Guo Jiuchen asked, "What does the Queen Mother mean?"

Empress Dowager Liu gently stroked the armor worn on her little finger, and said coldly: "Since the emperor doesn't like women, then send more handsome men to the emperor, and there will always be one or two who can get in." The emperor's eyes have divided Gu Shaojun's favor, and the Ai family doesn't want to see one or two more Marquis of Linyang come out."

Guo Jiuchen flattered: "The Queen Mother is wise!"

—

The next day, the emperor's imperial edict conferring on Gu Min as Marquis of Linyang spread throughout the capital. After hearing about it, the families of officials and eunuchs were surprised, some dismissed it, and most of them were envious.

It is the honor that many people dream of to be conferred a marquis and a noble. How many civil servants have worked hard to get a title after dying, and how many generals have to fight in the battlefield to get the honor. You can easily get the emperor in two days, why? !

The word "why" is the question that most people want to ask the most, and it also arouses the thinking of some handsome men like Pan An Songyu.

That Gu Shaojun is just an ordinary person with two eyes and one nose like them, and not a fairy in the sky. Since Gu Shaojun can serve the emperor to become a marquis, maybe they can too!

All of a sudden, Nanfeng Halls in the capital, large and small, were crowded with men who came to ask for advice on how to please men. The art stalls in the streets and alleys were all selling portraits of Gu Min. Who wouldn't want to see this great man? Should the new legendary figure, upstart of the imperial court--the dignity of Linyang Hou?

For a while, the name of Marquis of Linyang spread throughout the capital, and even Gu Min, who was recuperating in the palace, heard about his glorious deeds from the eunuchs and maids of honor.

"Gu Shaojun, oh no, I'm going to call you Lord Gu now." Jiang Shuiping had just returned from errands outside the palace. He saw the enthusiasm of men, women and children in the capital discussing Gu Min. He walked into the room and faced Gu who was reading a book by the window. Min, deliberately teased in a yin and yang tone, "You are the most famous person in the capital now, hey, do you know? Now your portrait sells better than the portrait of the oiran of the Never Night Tower! Tsk tsk tsk , you said that they are both men, and I only hate that my mother didn't give me a good look, otherwise I will be named a Marquis and a Prime Minister just around the corner! It's really more angry than a man!"

Gu Min recuperated for a few days, and now his left hand can barely move. He took a piece of discarded rice paper from the table and threw it towards Jiang Shuiping, "Then, do you want to give you a chance to reincarnate?"

Jiang Shuiping dodged the attack of the ball of paper, and laughed loudly: "That's not necessary, I haven't lived enough in this life!"

"Stop being so talkative." Gu Min tried to move his left hand. In the past two days, the imperial doctor came to see his wound and said that the wound was recovering well, and in a few days it would not need to be wrapped in a white cloth.

Although Shen Ying's imperial edict to confer Gu Min as Marquis of Linyang had been issued a few days ago, Gu Min's hand injury delayed the Marquis ceremony arranged by the Ministry of Rites, and he did not have time to thank the emperor for his kindness.

Gu Min looked out of the window, his thoughts were in a trance for a while, the emperor also gave him a house in Beijing as the Linyang Marquis Mansion, if the Marquis Mansion is settled in some time, then invite the emperor to visit his mansion to express his thanks , that's not bad.

I don't know what kind of decoration the emperor likes, so find a chance to ask, and decorate the Hou's mansion according to the emperor's preferences. If the emperor likes it, then his mansion can also be regarded as the emperor's home outside the palace.

"By the way, Lord Gu," Jiang Shuiping remembered something, "I heard from a little eunuch just now that it seems that the East Factory has recruited a lot of beautiful men recently. What do you think they want? It can't be Do you want to send those men into the palace to compete with you?"

Gu Min turned his head, his eyes froze, and he snorted coldly, "A group of young people."

It seems that some people couldn't sit still seeing him alone receiving the grace, and felt that they could gain the emperor's favor just like him with just one face.

Simply whimsical.

However, although I believe that the emperor will not take a liking to those vulgar fans, he should not underestimate the enemy.

Gu Min lowered his eyes and pondered for a while, then suddenly raised his head and said to Jiang Shuili, "Go and invite me Yan Qing and Yu Lian."
