After the general fell ill

, A few days after the end of the court, no one in the harem was named queen before he passed away. "

"Although I have never married a wife, I have the only person I can identify in this life. Your Majesty is accompanied by Empress Liu. Her Majesty the Empress has known Your Majesty since childhood. They are like childhood sweethearts. They have never been separated through years of war. I have no talent or virtue, no more than in the past Empress Wen."

Gu Yan's eyes were calm and calm, as if he was talking about a very ordinary thing, and responded to the emperor's questioning lightly.

Hearing this, Xiao Zhuo restrained his teasing expression, his sharp eyes hit Gu Yan's heart, and said casually: "No talent or virtue? Ting Yuan is too self-effacing. After Qi Ming learned that I was going to use Su Ce to go out, he told me— —”

Xiao Zhuo looked away slowly, "Before going out, maybe I have to congratulate Ting Yuan on his happy event."

Gu Yan was startled when he heard the words, he didn't expect Xiao Zhuo to change the topic so quickly, he only heard Xiao Zhuo ask in a warm voice: "Ting Yuan, when are you going to marry General Su?"

The tone of this sentence is almost the same as when Xiao Zhuo asked him if he would like to become the princess.

In Xiao Zhuo's eyes, Gu Yan marries Princess Sile as his wife and further becomes a relative of the emperor, whether it is public or private, he is happy to see it succeed;

Gu Yan married Su Ce, the former official of Yan State, and he would not object to it. Rather than saying that he believed in Su Ce's ability, it would be better to say that he was convinced of Gu Yan's loyalty.

Gu Yan: "The subject cannot be the master."

Xiao Zhuo glanced at him in surprise, thinking that the heroic and mighty general must be fearful, and immediately realized that he was also misled by the metaphor of Empress Caiwen just now, and raised his eyebrows, "Then I will ask General Su face to face tomorrow. "

After saying that, without waiting for Gu Yan to reply, he turned around and walked towards the scripture storage pavilion.

29. Audience

"I wonder when the two generals plan to get married?"

Perhaps it was the Frost's Fall solar term, and Su Ce's energy was particularly low that day. After drinking the soup, he leaned on the soft pillow and read a few pages of travel notes. In the early morning, he couldn't even open his eyes. I closed my eyes, not even knowing that the book had fallen to the ground.

When Gu Yan came back, Tan Qiu picked up Su Ce's dropped books and put them on the desk. He looked at Su Ce who was leaning on the soft pillow, and carefully helped him without disturbing his sleep. It adjusts the sleeping position.

Sensing the familiar scent of incense lingering around him, Su Ce slowly opened his eyes. He stared at Gu Yan for a moment, then glanced out of the window, and sighed softly, "It's so late."

Just as Gu Yan wanted to remove the soft pillow behind him, Su Ce stopped him with his hand, and then stopped moving. From the corner of his eye, he saw that there was no blood in the spittoon, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

"An Lan, let's eat first." Gu Yan saw that Su Ce was holding himself together, and thought to himself that he must have missed lunch again.

Su Ce half-closed his eyes, and nodded absently. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of Gu Yan walking out of the door again, staring at Liu Xiang on the other side of the bed in a daze.

"Your Majesty wants to invite you into the palace tomorrow." When Gu Yan came back, seeing that Su Ce was about to fall into a coma again, he decided to tell him Xiao Zhuo's oral instructions first.

Hearing this, Su Ce really woke up a bit. He supported his limp body and took the bowls and chopsticks from Gu Yan's hands. He seemed to have no interest in the fragrant food, and raised his eyes and asked, "Your Majesty wants to see me?"

When he first arrived in Chang'an, Xiao Zhuo let him recuperate in Gu's residence, and never mentioned his plan to see him, but now he wants to see him, I'm afraid...

Gu Yan nodded and said, "Your Majesty is determined to go to war next spring and summer."

"Sure enough." Su Ce lowered his head and held the bowls and chopsticks. He had no desire to eat in his heart, and recalled Gu Yan's worried expression just now, and said softly, "I'll just have a bowl of porridge, I can't eat it."

Gu Yan frowned and was speechless. After Tan Qiu handed the porridge bowl to Su Ce and walked out the door with the Ducheng plate, he finally couldn't help asking: "An Lan, do you want to ask Xue Yuan to take a look at it again? ?”

Su Ce picked up the spoon and drank the porridge slowly, without raising his head, he replied, "Then let's have a look."

Fu asked again: "Apart from the expedition, does Ting Yuan know what else His Majesty wants to see me for?"

Gu Yansi and Xiao Zhuo had a conversation under the ginkgo tree in the Sutra Pavilion, and smiled helplessly, "I still want to ask you in person when I will get married."

Su Ce slowly fiddled with the porridge with a spoon, and said with a smile, "Your Majesty's reaction is exactly as you and I expected, but General He told His Majesty?"

Gu Yan nodded, remembering the conversation between Zeng and He Liang in the restaurant, he couldn't laugh or cry: "I went to drink with Qi Ming before, but this kid actually thinks my sweetheart is the Holy One, it's just inexplicable."

Su Ce let out a "puchi" laugh, and said jokingly with his eyes: "General He's guess is reasonable."

After seeing Gu Yan's figure, he paused slightly, and continued: "After all, Ting Yuan and His Majesty are well-known as models of monarchs and ministers, but Ting Yuan and I seem to have met by chance in the eyes of others, and it is normal to be misunderstood."

Gu Yan twitched the corners of his lips and said with a sneer, "An Lan, isn't the point why He Qiming thinks I like men?"

This question really surprised Su Ce, and he subconsciously asked, "Why?"

As soon as the words fell, Gu Yan leaned forward and said impatiently: "Today, Your Majesty told me about the old affairs of Emperor Wen of Jin and Empress Wen of the previous dynasty."

Su Ce scooped up the rest of the porridge and rice, put down the porridge bowl and looked directly at Gu Yan, who had opened up his chatterbox. It was extremely rare to see him beaming like this.

"The first male queen in all ages." Su Ce answered.

"That's right, Your Majesty compared the life of Empress Wen with me..." Seeing Su Ce's surprised expression, Gu Yan stood up and sat next to Su Ce, "But the drunkard's intention is not to drink, Your Majesty just wants to Just personally confirm the relationship between me and you."

Su Ce: "What does this have to do with General He?"

"An Lan, in my opinion, His Majesty obviously does not object to men marrying men, and at the same time, he is familiar with the past of Empress Wen."

Gu Yan's eyes seemed to be twinkling like stars, Su Ce nodded slowly following his words, but suddenly stopped when Gu Yan uttered the next sentence.

"There must be the teachings of the late emperor, and Qi Ming is a disciple of the late emperor, who agrees with marriage between men, so he would suspect that I like men."

Su Ce slandered inwardly, "Is this even related to the late emperor?"It's better to directly suspect that General He likes men, so he concludes that the people around him also like men. This guess is more convincing than speculation about the former emperor.

Counting the previous thoughts of "seeking death" and other thoughts that he didn't know yet, Gu Yan's thoughts can always diverge to a level that ordinary people can't reach.

——Really clear-headed.

"Put General He's aside in advance." Gu Yan hugged his waist, Su Ce leaned into Gu Yan's arms, and asked a difficult question: "Ting Yuan, what if His Majesty really likes you?"

Gu Yan raised his eyebrows, and pondered for a moment, "In His Majesty's heart, Jiangshan Sheji ranks first. If His Majesty really likes me, he will definitely not pierce this layer of window paper. He still needs me to go outside the Great Wall."

In the end, he concluded: "The national interest always comes first in the emperor's heart."

Su Ce thought to himself, it seems that apart from having strange thoughts sometimes, Ting Yuan is really well versed in the emperor's mind in the ups and downs of the officialdom.

Gu Yan asked back: "What about An Lan?"

Su Ce pretended to be helpless and said: "Tianwei is above, Ce dare not offend. We can only be a pair of fateful mandarin ducks."

There was a half-smile on the corner of Gu Yan's lips, and he suddenly embraced Su Ce and fell down on the bed together, gently playing with Su Ce's hair with one hand, and said sadly, "Really?"

Su Ce squinted and said, "It's fake."

What responded to him was a pair of gentle eyes and the warmth of the corners of his lips.

On this day, Gu Yan did not ride a horse to the palace as usual, but took a carriage uncharacteristically like a real dignitary.

The palace guards who were on guard in shifts were wondering, but they saw Gu Yan jumping out of the carriage and raising his arm, apparently to help someone get out of the carriage, and then a sickly pale hand lifted the curtain, and a man in moon white With Gu Yan's support, the young man in clothes stabilized his figure.

After Su Ce got off the car, he suddenly felt several obscure eyes looking at him from all around him. After walking a few steps side by side with Gu Yan, he saw Liang Rang, the chief eunuch, coming to greet him.

When Su Ce gradually walked away, the guards in the light and the dark began to communicate with each other quietly with their eyes.

A look struck: Could it be that the person next to the general is Su Ce who is recovering from his illness?

He looked back with a look: It's probably him. I heard that His Majesty has plans to go to war next year. I don't think General Su seems to be fully recovered from his illness.

Another eye warning: Everyone stand guard.

The few people looked back, stood upright, and still secretly communicated with each other: "I don't know anything else, this General Su's is really beautiful."

Another look of disdain: calm down, don't you want to marry a wife?

In the Zichen Palace, which resembles the golden tower of Qionglou, the emperor Xiao Zhuo is standing in front of the redrawn map of the world, holding a candle and staring at the direction of the northern desert in the map.

The young emperor is talented and bold. His eyes are not limited to the land within the Great Wall. He sees farther, so the road he walks is more difficult. The decisive battle with the Udi people is like a battle of national destiny.

For so many years, except for one Gu Yan who can take on the duties of a general, the others are more or less lacking. Some generals are strong generals under Gu Yan's command.

Looking around the world, apart from Gu Yan, who suits his wishes, there is only Su Ce, the former Anhou of the Yan Kingdom, who is outstanding in talent and serves Liang Yan loyally.

Whenever at this time, Xiao Zhuo wants to speed up the pace of unifying the world. After realizing that Su Ce is extremely difficult to deal with, Xiao Zhuo puts his energy on developing agriculture, building water conservancy, and cultivating health and wellbeing. Ce gave him an excellent opportunity.

Losing Su Ce, a tricky enemy
