After raising the emperor, he always wanted to marry me

Winter in Beijing is cold and dry.

In the Bihua Palace, green smoke curls from the gilded incense burner.

Concubine Li Jin was wearing a light and soft brocade blouse, with a fine white fox fur on her knees.Two little maids half-kneeled in front of Concubine Li's soft couch holding a urn of goat's milk.The big court lady Biyun took two small silver tweezers, picked out milk skin from the milkman and spread it on Li Fei's cheeks.

This is the idea of ​​Concubine Ning Xu Jingrou. Applying warm milk to the face is the best way to nourish the skin in such a cold and dry winter.

"Ugh..."

Concubine Li half-closed her eyes and let out a sigh as they waited on them.The sharp-eared Biyun heard it, and while sticking the last piece of milk skin in her hand under Li Fei's eyelids, she asked aloud, "Why is your empress sighing so well?"

"Can I not sigh? You'er is a heartless little girl. I haven't entered the palace for more than half a month, so please be safe." Concubine Li closed her eyes, and her voice was somewhat muffled due to the milk skin on both sides of her mouth. : "If he doesn't come, even the busy one won't come. Poor Bengong alone."

"Niang Niang." Biyun carefully wiped Concubine Li's hands with a soft towel soaked in flower juice, and said in a low voice, "You have wrongly blamed the two Highnesses."

"What's wrong? I can count days off by myself?" Concubine Li closed her eyes completely, and turned her body sideways: "Just cover them up for them."

"It's not that this slave is going to cover up." Bi Yun whispered to the person's ear mysteriously: "Your Highness originally forbade this slave to tell you. The eighth day of November is your birthday, and His Royal Highness Zhan Wang said that this year he is doing well. Yi is in the middle of the capital, and the two His Royal Highnesses are looking around to celebrate your birthday."

"Really? When did it happen?" Concubine Li was overjoyed, and she was about to sit up with support, and the milky skin on her face almost fell off with this movement.

"Oh my lord, you haven't finished it yet." The big palace maid Biyun hurriedly supported the man's shoulders and made him lie down again: "My lord, you are happy now, but when the time comes, you have to pretend that you don't know , otherwise the servants will be finished."

"I know, I know, I still need you to tell me this?" Concubine Li leaned back on the soft couch happily: "Oh, tell me about these two children. They are not big, but their filial piety is not small. I'm all young at this age. It's a year old, and besides, it's not a whole birthday."

"Your Majesty, the two Highnesses want to be filial in your heart, so you just have to do it." Biyun counted the time, wiped the face with flower juice, and took a small box of exquisite hibiscus pearl ointment to smooth the face.This hibiscus pearl ointment is a gift from Queen Rakshasa to Gu Xiu. In the whole palace, only Concubine Li has a few boxes, not even the emperor's hands: "These few first-grade concubines in the palace right now are just you, my lord. Most enjoyable."

"That's right." Concubine Li raised the corners of her mouth, caressing her smooth cheeks triumphantly: "You just say that Concubine Han has raised a son who has been top-notch all her life. How is it now? Your Majesty doesn't even want her face See you. It’s better to be my child, capable and filial.”

On a sunny day after the snow.

There are crowds of people on the streets of Bianjing City.

In this endless flow of people, there are two tall horses walking side by side, which are particularly conspicuous.

It's not because of those two crotch!The horse below is tall and prominent, but because the two people on the horseback are too outstanding.

One is dressed in a crow-blue cloak, with a silver crown and hair tied up, and his handsome and upright features are impressive.

The other is dressed in Firefox long fur and a golden crown, with a round face, a high nose, and delicate features.

"Seventh brother, let's get everything done for this afternoon." Gu You rode on the horseback and thumped his stiff waist: "How far is it from your list?"

"Hmm..." Gu Xiu thought for a while and took out a small note full of items from his sleeve robe: "Birthday cakes, singing and dancing, acrobatics, fresh fruits, and the Raksha man who can set off fireworks. "

The eighth day of November is Li Fei Jin's 42nd birthday.It was rare for Gu Xiu not to leave Beijing for the expedition, so he began to discuss with King Ning Gu You about celebrating Concubine Li's birthday.

As far back as Gu You could remember, his mother Li Fei's birthday was the same every year, and even the [-]th birthday two years ago was not properly arranged.

In order to create some unexpected spectacles on Concubine Li's birthday, the two of them bribed Concubine Li's court lady, Biyun, to find out Concubine Li's childhood preferences, and without telling Concubine Li, they went to Bianjing City to make arrangements. stand up.

Because Bi Yun said that Concubine Li liked dazzling fireworks since she was a child, Gu Xiu remembered that this year's conquest against Turks was won, and among the gifts from Queen Raksha was a carload of fireworks.It is the most famous "Starry Night Flowing Fire" in the Raksha Kingdom.

This kind of fireworks can be set off in many ways and the scene is grand, but the way of setting off is complicated.In Luocha, every "Starry Night Flowing Fire" fireworks show needs to be operated by a special person, otherwise it will easily hurt people.

Gu You sent someone to inquire around Bianjing City, only to find out that Dongshi Street, Pingkangfang lived a Raksha man who could make fireworks.

In order to deceive others, Gu You did not ask the servants at home to bring the Rakshasa man back to the mansion.Instead, he planned to visit the door in person while he was going out today to prepare for the birthday ceremony.

"Where do the Raksha people live?" Gu You straightened up on the horseback: "Is it Pingkangfang or Qingyunfang?"

"Pingkangfang, Qingyunfang is the place where birthday cakes were ordered just now." Gu Xiu put away the note in his hand and lightly clamped it to the horse's belly: "Let's go, it's getting late."

"Speaking of which, why didn't you bring Han Canjun over here? He understands Rakshasa language, and if there is something he doesn't understand, he can still help."

"A batch of spears just arrived in the army today, so he went to inspect them." The two rode on horses, chatting without saying a word: "Pingkangfang is remote, why don't you go back to the residence and find two people to follow?"

"No, no, it's all here. Besides, what can happen to this broad daylight? And don't you never bring guards when you go to the streets?"

The two of them walked to a relatively secluded place, a crossbow! The arrow suddenly passed the wind and shot straight in Gu You's direction.

Gu Xiu reacted very quickly and pushed Gu You aside.Letting the wind-breaking arrow hit him in the shoulder, both of them fell off their horses due to the force of inertia.The horse neighed in shock, raised its front hooves, and was about to step on Gu Xiu.

"Seventh brother!" Gu You, who had fallen to the ground, came back to his senses and screamed. He hurriedly covered Gu Xiu's wound, and hurriedly dragged him from under the horse's hoof: "Come quickly! Help!"

The news that the two men were shot and fell off the horse alarmed the sparse passers-by, and soon alarmed the Forbidden Army in Xuncheng.

When Han Mochu rushed from the army to the inner palace, Zhong Peiyi, the commander of the forbidden army, was kneeling in the courtyard to plead guilty.

In the capital city, at the foot of the emperor, someone actually assassinated the prince in the street. As the commander of the forbidden army, Zhong Peiyi can still kneel in the court to plead guilty, which is considered a kindness of the king.

In the palace gate, the palace servants who followed the servants came in and out, carrying the water basin stained red with blood, and their expressions were extremely busy.

"Your Majesty, if Han Canjun arrives, go in and answer." The old eunuch Cui Shang nodded to Han Mochu, and brought Han Mochu into the inner hall of Chongning Palace.

In the spacious inner hall of Chongning Palace, the crossbow on Gu Xiu's shoulder! The arrow has been taken out, and two other imperial physicians are busy stopping the bleeding.

crossbow!The arrow's sitting force was so strong that it pierced Gu Xiu's shoulder.Fortunately, he didn't hurt his scapula, otherwise Gu Xiu's martial arts would be useless.

Gu You also suffered some abrasions, half of his arms were covered with ointment, and there was a large area of ​​redness and swelling on Bai Shengsheng's flesh.

"Chen Han Mochu, see Your Majesty."

"Okay, don't make those hypocrisy, I asked you to come here to ask questions." The king Gu Hong cut to the point with anger on his face, "Why didn't you follow King Zhan today."

"Returning to Your Majesty, His Royal Highness Zhan Wang ordered that no outsiders be allowed to follow him before he left today. It just so happened that a new batch of spears arrived in the army today, so I stayed in the army and handed over to the Ministry of War."

"Gu Xiu, Gu Xiu, let me tell you what you want!" Gu Hong glanced at Gu Xiu's pale face due to blood loss, inexplicably worried and irritable.

"Father, don't scold the seventh brother. The seventh brother is protecting my son from disaster today." Gu You lowered his head pitifully: "The seventh brother said that Pingkangfang is remote, so I let two people do it. It's my fault." bother..."

"You two have to be filial and have a sense of proportion. How can there be a royal family who doesn't want to accompany the guards in the street?"

"I think I can surprise my mother and concubine. The seventh brother usually doesn't bring guards, so...so..." Gu You was ashamed and remorseful, hesitating and speechless.

"Can you be the same as your seventh brother? Can he protect himself if something happens to you?" Gu Hong was still angry, and he didn't know who to blame for a while.

"Immortal Bodhisattva, what happened?" Concubine Li who was in the inner palace heard the news, and hurried over without even having time to change her clothes.Seeing that half of Gu Xiu's arm was covered with blood, and Gu You's arm was also bruised a lot, even the king Gu Hong forgot, so he threw himself in front of the two children and cried, "My son, isn't this Are you going to hurt me to death as a mother?"

"Mother and concubine, my son is fine, my son is fine." Gu You hurriedly rolled off his sleeves and hid the medicated scratch.

"You're fine, where's your brother?" Concubine Li rubbed the handkerchief in her hand, crying until her eyes were stained with rouge: "My son, tell Madam Li if it hurts?"

"Concubine Li, don't worry, my son is fine." Gu Xiu's lips were bloodless, he managed to pull himself together, and gave Concubine Li a light smile that made people feel at ease.

"I've lost so much blood, are you okay?"

Along the way, the palace lady Biyun explained to her the ins and outs of the incident.In order to allow her to watch a rare Rakshasa fireworks on her birthday, Gu Xiu and Gu You's two children went to Pingkang Fang to find the Rakshasa who could set off fireworks without telling everyone.She was assassinated on the way, and Gu Xiu saved her son's life again, almost costing her life.

Thinking of this, Concubine Li's heart tightened even more.

"Okay, stop crying." Gu Hong personally stretched out his hand to help Concubine Li up: "The two children are still injured, so I need to coax you first."

Concubine Li wiped away the tears on her face indiscriminately, holding back her sobs: "Your Majesty, have you caught this assassin? This concubine wants to ask him how my son offended him!"

Li Fei Jin's words reminded Gu Hong.He also wanted to know who Gu You had offended.If it was about fighting for the throne, Gu Xiu should have been assassinated in the street.If it is said that he missed the passenger car, then Gu Xiu has been alone in Bianjing City countless times, why must he pick the time when Gu You is by his side?If it was said that the assassin's goal was Gu You, then he really couldn't think of a reason.

Although Gu You is domineering and domineering, he acts according to his heart.But they are all trivial matters, and it is not worth the effort to assassinate them in the street.

In order to clarify this muddled matter, he had just issued a death order with Zhong Peiyi outside the door, and if the assassin couldn't catch him for an hour, he would kneel for an hour.If he can't catch it for a day, he will kneel for a day.

At this moment, most of the day has passed.

On the streets of Bianjing City, in addition to the guards in charge of the imperial army, there are also the officials of Jingzhaoyin Mansion and the criminal officials of Dali Temple.Almost all the teams involved in the incident were mobilized. If the murderer was caught a quarter of an hour earlier, his head could be saved a quarter of an hour earlier.

"Your Majesty, Master Cao, the vice-general of the imperial army, is requesting an audience." The old eunuch Cui Shang dragged his whisk to report to the king.

"Let him come in and answer without courtesy." Gu Hong stood with his hands behind his back, and from the corner of his eye he glanced at Concubine Li, who was biting her red lips: "Okay, if you're interrogating the assassin, I'll allow you to be present."

"Well, thank you, Your Majesty." Concubine Li nodded, her eyes reddened as she straightened Gu Xiu's robe that had been dragged away due to the healing, and she was muttering something to pray to God and Buddha.

A moment later, Cao Mingshu, the deputy general of the imperial army, came into the palace to see him, and directly lifted his robe and knelt down, "Your Majesty, the assassin has been caught."

"Where is it now?"

"Return to Your Majesty, the assassin is now dead."

"Death?" Gu Hong squinted his eyes: "Is it true that you died, or did you just find a dead body to cover my eyes in order to save your life?"

"Your Majesty, forgive me!" Cao Mingshu kowtowed deeply, and took out a portrait from his waist: "By the time the general found the assassin, the assassin had already committed suicide by taking poison by the small lake, and at the same time, King Yining was found on him." The portrait of His Highness as the target, as well as the murder weapon crossbow! Arrows. It is found that the assassin's body has been buried in Dali Temple."

The assassin is dead, and this case can only be discussed in the long run.

The only thing that is certain right now is that the assassin's target is really King Ning Gu You.

After Cao Mingshu finished reporting, everyone present remained silent.

After contemplating for a long time, King Gu Hong slowly said: "Forget it, let's all go down today. I will definitely give justice to the two emperors."

***

When leaving the palace, Gu Xiu comforted the worried Concubine Li, and did not tell Aunt Wu about the injury after returning home.

In the dimly lit study room, Gu Xiu silently leaned against the desk with his eyes closed.

"Your Highness, why does it seem like you've lost a battle?" Han Mochu stood in front of the man, stroking his forehead like a boy: "It seems to be a little hot."

"I'm fine." Gu Xiu stopped Han Mochu, who was going to get medicine not far away, and stretched out his hand to support his slightly swollen forehead: "Master, you said that I borrowed Brother Sixth Emperor to frame Prince Rui today. What's the difference between Duan Wang?"

"Your Highness, there is no difference between you and King Xi Duan." Han Mochu said bluntly: "You and they just want to win. Only the winner is justice. Only the winner is justice. After all There is only one Supreme Being in the world, and if you want to win, you have to do whatever it takes."

"Unscrupulous?" Gu Xiu stared ahead, thinking thoughtfully: "Master, can you see the expressions of Concubine Li and Sixth Brother today? They are really worried about me... If they know that this is a plot. ..”

"Then you don't need to let them know, Your Highness. Why bother yourself?" Han Mochu still turned around and fetched the life-saving Wuji Pill, and sat next to Gu Xiu to grind it up with strong wine: "Your Highness, you have your own king." Since that day, no one who has ascended to a high position has blood on his hands. Your Highness has been galloping across the border since he was 15 years old. If the Lord has compassion and looks forward and backward, may he win?"

"Those are aliens, but they are siblings after all..." With Gu Xiuhuang's kung fu, Han Mochu pulled out the injured shoulder blade, and half of the shoulder was exposed without embarrassment: "Are you...?"

"Naturally, the medicine has been changed. The wound medicine used by the royal physician in the palace doesn't work." Han Mochu dragged the bowl of the wound medicine, and pressed the medicine in the bowl directly on the tender flesh of Gu Xiu's wound.

The Wuji Pill was mixed with spirits, and the sudden sharp pain and burning sensation made Gu Xiu break out in a layer of cold sweat. His whole body trembled instinctively as Han Mochu changed the medicine. A few forbearance muffled.

"It doesn't matter whether you are a foreign race or siblings. His Highness regards them as siblings, but they have never regarded His Highness as a sibling." Han Mochu's subordinates changed their dressings without any pause, and never dragged their feet: "Have you forgotten, Your Highness? Everything that His Highness has experienced in these years , everything is aimed at His Highness's life."

"Hmm." Gu Xiu gritted his teeth and endured the severe pain, his right hand tightly gripped the armrest of the chair, trying to divert the pain from his shoulder.

"I did some things behind the back of the mountain for His Highness, but they are the ones who revealed the flaws to me." Han Mochu cut a long piece of gauze and bandaged it for Gu Xiu: "At the moment they just lost their Sacred Heart. Fortunately, he is sitting in his own palace. If His Highness committed any of these things, he would have died without a place to bury him. The reason why His Highness beat them is because His Highness never loves power , not greedy for wealth and honor, not fighting or grabbing in front of the king, neither forming a party nor interfering in politics. That's why they have nothing to attack and nothing to attack."

"I know about this." Gu Xiu pinched the armrest by his hand, almost tearing down the chair with such strength: "I just feel ashamed of Brother Six today..."

"Ashamed, Your Highness is ashamed because His Highness has a bottom line. He knows what he can do and what he can't do. In fact, His Highness thinks about it carefully. His Highness doesn't know when and in what form the killer will do it. So His Highness today Shielding His Highness Prince Ning is voluntary out of his heart." After changing the dressing, Han Mochu took a piece of candied plum and stuffed it into Gu Xiu's mouth: "Prince Rui did not hesitate to adopt his youngest son in order to return to the capital and confuse the blood of the royal family. If this matter does not happen today, according to Prince Rui's nature of vengeance, sooner or later it will be unfavorable to His Royal Highness Prince Ning. Why not let His Highness take the lead today to expose this matter directly and completely. It can also save the innocent man The child of the tool. If the child becomes sensible in a few years, he must be a vicious and resentful person again."

Gu Xiu chewed the candied fruit in his mouth, and the pain in his shoulder gradually eased.Han Mochu's words once again made him feel much better.

Seeing Gu Xiu's calm expression, Han Mochu took out a few paper signs full of handwriting: "Please look, Your Highness, this is what was placed in the interlayer of the snack box that His Highness returned from Jinghua Temple that day, and all of them are yours. The details of the eldest brother Huang who fell off his horse and died that year."

"Brother Huang." Gu Xiu reached out and took the papers, and looked at them: "It seems that the Queen Mother hopes that I can seek justice for Brother Huang."

"This is not what I want to say. What I want to say is, does your Highness think that the fight for the throne is just a political confrontation? This Bianjing imperial city is a fast-flowing river. You have never had a day when there are turbulent disputes." Stay away. Your eldest brother Huang and brother five emperors, as well as those brothers and sisters who should have come to this world, have long been swallowed by these turbulent currents. Your Highness wants to live, to seek justice for the loved ones, to protect If the loved ones can sit back and relax, then they will win to the end."

Gu Xiu looked at the handwriting on the paper with a serious expression, and his thoughts returned to the days when he first returned to the imperial city.There are countless factions around him, and there is not a day when he can close his eyes.

What Han Mochu said was right, he stepped into this torrent after returning from the Northern Wilderness, and he wanted to win to the end at all costs.

"If your Highness has figured it out, go back to your room and lie down, and I will make medicine for you." Han Mochu cleaned up Gu Xiu's medical cloth for wiping blood and wiping his wounds, and turned to leave.Suddenly, he felt his shoulders sink, and looked sideways, only to see Gu Xiu bent over and leaned on his back again.

"back."

"Don't move your back." Han Mochu raised the corners of his mouth and patted the back of Gu Xiu's hand.

"Move your back." Gu Xiu remained unmoved, and wrapped his arms around him even tighter.

"Your Highness is taller than my ministers this year."

"I don't have armor, it's not heavy." Gu Xiu seriously put his chin on Han Mochu's shoulder blades, without any intention of letting go.

Han Mochu chuckled, but still held Gu Xiu's knees with his hands behind his back, allowing the heavy Gu Xiu to rest on his back.

"Your Highness, lie down firmly, don't fall."

"Okay." Gu Xiu sat on Han Mochu's back contentedly.

Han Mochu carried Gu Xiu on his back, and his steps were still steady.

Gu Xiu's body became stronger day by day after he became an adult, but he wasn't too heavy, but his body was too big.It's not like a young man can walk with his back on his back.You have to hold your breath to keep your upper body stable.

"In the future, when the king recovers from his injuries, he will carry Han on his back and join the army."

"Then let's wait until His Highness recovers from his injury."

In fact, Han Mochu secretly liked the feeling of Gu Xiu leaning on his back like this, it was Gu Xiu's intimate sense of dependence on him.Gu Xiu is the most relaxed when he is on his back.Gu Xiu is always restrained and extremely self-disciplined.The most indulgent and selfish thing he has done these years is probably lying on Han Mochu's back and asking him to carry it.

Han Mochu thought, as long as he can still walk, he is willing to let Gu Xiu lean on him like this all the time.

It doesn't matter how high or far you go.

Whether in the wild or in the prosperous age, he can keep him safe and sound.
