After raising the emperor, he always wanted to marry me

The days when Gu Xiu was recuperating in the palace were the busiest days in Zhanwang's palace in the past few years.

King Ning Gu You brought his concubine Xu Jingrou over twice a day.Every time I come here, I never forget to scold the prison guards who took the money and did nothing.

Li Fei's care was as simple and rude as ever.Ginseng and deer antler, Ganoderma lucidum and snow lotus, as long as they can nourish the body, it doesn't matter, let alone the value, and they are all sent to Gu Xiu's house like water.Seeing that Su Che's eyes were red, he wished he could sleep with those rare herbs every day.

Princess Qingzhao is still ill and cannot leave the palace for the time being.He could only send the well-behaved nanny by his side to visit and say hello every day, surrounded Su Che who was treating Gu Xiu's injury in every detail and repeatedly asked about Gu Xiu's injury, until Su Che's hairs were blown out of questioning.

In addition, there are those widows of warriors who have been favored by Gu Xiu. When they heard that Gu Xiu was recuperating in the mansion, they all spontaneously brought home chickens and ducks, fat pigs and sheep, and fruits and vegetables from their own fields. Even the caught fish and the collected eggs were delivered to Gu Xiu's family.Some people didn't even enter the door at all, and piled a few cloth bags directly at the gate, so tired that Baode had to watch in front of the door all the time, moving those potatoes, sweet potatoes, cabbage, winter melons into the house.

As far as these dishes are concerned, even if these people in Zhanwang's mansion don't buy vegetables for ten years, they are enough.

Aunt Wu finally had a place to use her skills. In the past two years, Gu Xiu spent most of his time in the barracks, and even when he returned home, he would leave early and return late.It's better now, taking advantage of Gu Xiu's opportunity to recover from his injuries at home, he cooks food for Gu Xiu in different ways four times a day.

She vowed to double the weight of the few catties that Gu Xiu lost during those few days in prison.

King Gu Hong also sent the imperial physician to the door the day after Gu Xiu returned to the mansion to recover from his injuries. After asking about the pulse, he left piles of high-quality wound medicine.It is also a quantity that Gu Xiu can never use alone, and it is also cheap for Su Che who lives at home to diagnose Gu Xiu's injuries.

For some reason, Gu Xiu didn't use the wound medicine bestowed by the king.

It rained for several days in a row, and then it was a sunny day.

The weather is not too hot yet.There are not many furnishings in Zhanwang's mansion, and the convective wind blows through the courtyard door, which can cool the whole body.

Gu Xiu lay down on the couch, a small plate of apples that had been peeled, cored and cut into small crescent moons was placed in front of him.

Han Mochu sat in front of a table not far away, with military reports from the camp in the suburbs of Beijing piled up in front of him.Apart from the beating, Gu Xiu didn't have any punishment this time.Military titles are all there, not even suspension or grounding.

Military affairs are always urgent and cannot be left unresolved like this.

Therefore, even if Gu Xiu is recuperating in the mansion, military affairs cannot be delayed.And the burden of handling military affairs naturally fell on Han Mochu's shoulders.

"Master, are you tired?" Gu Xiu took a fruit fork, picked up a piece of apple and put it in his mouth, while chewing, he looked at Han Mochu who was busy at his desk.

"So what if I'm tired, the army is full of urgent reports, so we can't delay." Han Mochu raised his head from his desk, raised his eyebrows lightly and said, "Your Highness, you don't talk when you eat or sleep. What does it look like to talk with something in your mouth?"

"Yes, you can't talk about eating." Gu Xiu swallowed the apple in his mouth, and said to himself in a low voice: "It's really unreasonable."

"Your Highness thinks this subject is inhumane? I have already told His Highness many times about the principle that a gentleman does not bully a dark room. Don't say that Your Highness is in front of my eyes now, even if I am not here, His Highness should not be so indulgent." Han Mochu was serious Picking up the ruler on the desk case, he slapped it lightly: "If your highness has the strength to grind your teeth with the minister, why not read the military newspaper with the minister. The White Tiger Army on the Xirong border reported a shortage of [-] pieces of armor. The Ministry of Households said that the money had been allocated years ago, and the Ministry of War said that there was no shortage of silver taels but a shortage of pig iron, and now there is no conclusion after arguing, what is His Highness planning?"

"The Ministry of War is short of pig iron? Isn't this a joke?" Gu Xiucai's spirit that had been at ease for a few days suddenly collapsed: "The Ministry of War is in charge of ordnance, and purchasing pig iron is its duty. Also, there is a shortage of armor in the army, and they have to make pig iron now. Are you still waiting for the armor to be cast when you really start a war?"

"Your Highness thinks this is ridiculous? Your Highness knows that this matter has been suppressed for a month, and His Majesty doesn't even know it." Han Mochu flipped through the report in his hand to Gu Xiu: "Meet this, Yu Shi Those speakers on the stage are all dumb."

"Forget it, it's always been like this in the Great Week. The army is the army, and the court is the court." Gu Xiu endured the pain in his back and propped himself up halfway: "You only criticized the military equipment from the king's camp. Curry allocates [-] pieces of armor and the chief general of the White Tiger Army, let's discuss the matter of the Ministry of War later."

"Sure enough, these military newspapers are more effective than any other medicine." Han Mochu raised the corner of his mouth, "Your Highness, you should lie down. After Chang Ru sees it, it's time to say something disrespectful to the doctor's advice."

It didn't take long for Gu Xiucai to lean back on the couch, when King Ning Gu You came in from the courtyard fanning his fan, and the servants behind him each held a huge watermelon in their arms.

"Seventh brother, how do you feel today? Are you feeling better?" Gu You was not polite when he came to the door, he pulled a chair and sat in front of Gu Xiu's bed, took the plate of apples that Gu Xiu just ate, and put them into his mouth one by one Li: "I'm dying of thirst all the way, let them cut the melon in a while."

"It's much better." Gu Xiu nodded in response, and even greeted Baode outside the door to send those watermelons to the kitchen, cut them up and shared them in the mansion.

"Why did His Highness Prince Ning come here alone today? He's still sweating profusely?" When Gu You came, Han Mochu also stopped writing, stood up and relaxed his muscles.

"My wife went to the palace to visit my concubine and eldest sister today. Hearing that the elder sister's health has improved a lot, the wife said that she would go to talk to the eldest sister. She was relieved and asked for some snacks. Today It's hot, and it will be noon if Madam can't keep her words, so I leave the car to Madam and come here on horseback." Gu You waved his fan, his face brimming with happiness.

Ning Wang Zhengfei Xu Jingrou, although she was born as a businesswoman, she can do things generously and behave decently, no worse than the famous ladies in Beijing.Not long after they got married, they won a place among these clan wives in Beijing.He also worked together with Gu You to regard these brothers and sisters of Gu You as blood relatives.When Gu Jin and Gu Xiu had an accident, Gu You, who had always ignored foreign affairs, was at a loss.On the contrary, it was she who immediately thought of the golden hairpin that had melted into her, thinking of making arrangements for Gu Xiu.She also often visited Gu Jin when he was ill, bringing fresh playthings from her hometown to relieve Gu Jin's boredom.

After a while, the little eunuch Baode came in carrying a large tray, which contained neatly sliced ​​watermelons.

The three of Gu Xiu took a piece each, and ate from a small white porcelain bowl.Watermelon in midsummer is the most refreshing and refreshing, and a bite is as sweet as honey water.

"Sigh, the melons in Xingyi are the sweetest." Gu You ate until the corners of his mouth juice splashed, his eyes narrowed, with a look of enjoyment on his face: "Seventh brother, how about I tell you a joke?"

"What joke?"

"Exactly today, in the previous court, Master Qiao, Minister of the Honglu Temple, suddenly came to sue his son-in-law, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, Master Li, for keeping happy prostitutes at home, and asked His Majesty to sentence his daughter to reconcile with Master Li. It made everyone in the court know that he was shameless." Gu You gnawed on half of the melon rind, and said with a suppressed smile, "Seventh brother, Han Canjun, you didn't see that the face of the emperor turned green today. Mr. Qiao is also a ruthless character, and his words seem to be poor." He took off his son-in-law’s pants and showed them to everyone.”

"Shouldn't this kind of immoral matter be impeached by Yushitai and Jianyuan? How could Master Qiao come to sue in person?" Gu Xiu wiped the juice from the corner of his mouth with a towel and said.

"Seventh brother, don't you know? That Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment was supported by Lord Han Ming, and the officials at Yushitai and Jianyuan are all from Lord Han Ming. Who would impeach their own people properly? ?”

"My own people? What kind of people?" Gu Xiu frowned puzzled.

"You don't understand the matter of the previous dynasty. I told you this as a joke, so don't bother thinking about it." Gu You waved his hands repeatedly, as if he was afraid that Gu Xiu would ask further questions.

Because if you keep asking, he will not understand some things.

"Then, has His Majesty made a decision on today's matter?" Han Mochu took another piece of smaller watermelon and asked with a smile.

"There is nothing to argue about this kind of thing. The more you argue, the more you will lose your face. The emperor sentenced him to divorce, and Mr. Li was also suspended for questioning." Gu You wiped the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief: "No way. No, I have to go, and I agreed to accompany my wife to Qingfeng Tower for lunch today. Seventh brother, you are so good, I will come back tomorrow."

In the evening, after dinner.

Su Che played a few games of chess with Han Mochu, and lost all the consultation fees for Gu Xiu's treatment in the past few days, and owed Han Mochu 15 taels of silver.

In a fit of anger, Su Che put down his pick, and said nothing to change Gu Xiu's medicine.

Han Mochu didn't take it seriously either, as there were left and right wound medicines, it would be the same for anyone who changed them.

"Master, what do you think of what the Sixth Brother said today?" Gu Xiuping was lying on the couch, playing with the little fox newly folded by Han Mochu.

Han Mochu held the prepared ointment in his hand, and applied it bit by bit on Gu Xiu's bruised back: "What else can I do? It just means that His Majesty is already cutting off the wings he once cultivated."

"Wings? They should be minions, right?" Gu Xiu pointed at the little fox's ears and said in a deep voice.

"It doesn't matter whether it's wings or minions. The Lord Han Ming on the left and right is now an outcast." Although Gu Xiu's stamina is excellent, Han Mochu's hand movements are still very light: "The wound on your highness's back will always heal , but the lost Sacred Heart will never come back.”

"The Sacred Heart...is just one person's likes and dislikes...govern the country according to one's own likes and dislikes...hiss..." Before Gu Xiu finished speaking, a sharp pain suddenly came from his back, choking off what he was about to say. went back.

"Your Highness, I know that you are unhappy, but there are some things that you have to take your time no matter how urgent you are." Han Mochu regained his gentle hand strength.

"I just feel that this time the journey is too risky." Gu Xiu closed his eyes. Han Mochu never told him how much effort he spent in handing over the handwritten letter during the few days he was in prison. for kings.He didn't ask, since Han Mochu didn't want him to be burdened, then he wouldn't let him down.

"Only by taking risks can we win." Han Mochu's voice was very soft, as if he wanted to let Gu Xiu fall asleep at ease: "Your Highness can only make the king feel at ease and stop everyone's mouths if you fight your own way."
