Force a good concubine

The emperor instinctively opened his mouth to refuse, glanced at Gu Yuan, who was beside him with downcast eyes, and immediately softened his tone: "Ah Yuan's article is good, but I don't have many people with me now, please forgive me, Brother Wang." .”

"Your Majesty misunderstood." Yuan Li still smiled calmly, "I just want to ask Gu Nushi to take the time to give me advice, at most one hour a day, and I definitely dare not wrong Your Majesty."

The emperor frowned. Yuan Li has always been a well-mannered and well-mannered person, so he definitely couldn't understand what he meant. Why did he suddenly become so stalking?Could it be that, like King Yu, he was thinking about Gu Yuan?She glanced at Gu Yan again, still standing aside with lowered eyebrows, she couldn't see any other thoughts.A thought arose, and the emperor said calmly: "A Yuan, have you heard the words of Prince Gong's son? One hour a day, can you finish the errand?"

Daqi's atmosphere is open, and there are not so many taboos when getting along with men and women. Gu Yan thought for a while, then nodded and said: "My lord, the servant can finish it."

The emperor didn't expect Gu Yuan to agree, so he couldn't help but look at Gu Yuan again: "A Yuan, you can really finish it, and won't it hinder the mission?"

The emperor's voice was full of concern, Gu Yan felt soft, and thought about it carefully: the emperor does not need female officials to serve him when he hunts during the day, and it is not difficult to spare an hour. The emperor seems to have the intention of using Yuanli, as the saying goes Wen is like a person, she can get a glimpse of Yuanli's heart from the article, and she can also provide some reference for the emperor.

"My lord," she smiled at the emperor, "Your servant may do nothing."

Her smile startled the emperor, and the emperor took a deep look at Yuan Li: Yuan Li had warm eyebrows, stood with a smile on his face, neither anxious nor impetuous, standing in front of the emperor with Gu Yuan on the left and right, both of them looked elegant and elegant , and the age is also very suitable, setting off himself like an irrelevant outsider.Literati are fond of poetry and prose, so is this Yuan Li's idea?The emperor was at a loss for what to do, and at the same time, he was a little more inexplicably annoyed—it was so easy to say that it was so easy to spare an hour or two, so it can be seen that other people are much more leisurely than her, the emperor, and they are so free that they have time to sing the wind and play with the moon !

"Whether a man or a woman can kiss or not, it's better to find a suitable place." The emperor pursed his lips, turned around and told Cui Chengxiu, "Pull a tent nearby, and call two eunuchs who are well-versed in writing and ink to serve the prince's pen, ink and tea."

The emperor's face was calm, and even the forced smile disappeared without a trace. Cui Chengxiu bowed and gritted his teeth anxiously: Who knows how Gu Yuan, who is usually so smart, can be so smart when he is in a critical moment. What's wrong with you?

"I'm tired, let's all retreat." Gu Yuan and Yuan Li thanked themselves for the decree together, and gave people the illusion of a golden boy and a jade girl. The emperor only felt that it was extremely annoying, and did not wait for Gu Yuan to get up, and entered the big room with a cold face. Tent, let winter watercraft serve to change clothes.

The emperor always has the privilege of doing whatever he wants, and it is nothing to use the bath instead of the setter to change clothes.Dong Chun glanced at Gu Yuan who was behind the emperor, and while changing clothes for the emperor, smoothed things over: "I heard that the young master did not eat well at the banquet, and the servants prepared some light food. It is still early, so the young master has to come in a little bit." ?”

The time is indeed still early, the emperor nodded: "I also want to read the book for a while, and send it up later!"

After she got out of the shower, she still ignored Gu Yan, sat cross-legged on the couch, and read Dashi and Annan's national books by the lamplight. Sure enough, they all mentioned the civil strife in Tianzhu, but Annan's tone was full of big words. The meaning of Qi's making peace is that Dashi hopes that Daqi will block the sea route and block the reinforcements coming from far away from the west.

Because Tianzhu is remote, hot and humid, there is miasma, except for the three-year tribute, some white elephants, spices and other local tributes, the Daqi court has little contact with Tianzhu, and the knowledge of Tianzhu's geography and human relationship is limited. Facing the two letters of credence, while slowly recalling the statement made by the chief envoy of Yunzhou before, seeing Gu Yan presenting the plate, he only glanced at it: "What?"

"It's the noodles made by the slave." Gu Yan opened the silver sunflower box on the side of the tureen. Inside were two kinds of fresh side dishes, and two cold dishes, one meat and one vegetable. "The imperial dining room didn't bring Wuzhou side dishes. I have made a few flavors, if you don’t mind the young master, just try it.”

The person she liked washed her hands and made soup for herself, and half of the emperor's grievances disappeared immediately. She raised her eyes to look at Gu Yan, and seeing her looking at her with concern, the other half of the grievances also disappeared.She put the folder in her hand back into the case, raised her chopsticks to pick up some small dishes, and suddenly raised her hand to Gu Yuan's lips: "Taste first."

As usual, imperial meals are always opened in front of the emperor for inspection. Although the side dishes are packed in silver boxes, they do not need silver medals. It is only natural that the emperor has some scruples. Gu Yan tasted one chopstick, but before he could speak, the emperor had already picked another The noodles were delivered, and after Gu Yuan had eaten them, he didn't change the chopsticks. He picked a chopsticks of noodles and ate them, and said with a smile, "I can't finish this bowl of noodles, let's eat together."

Southerners eat carefully, and they don’t have the habit of cooking, roasting whole pigs and whole sheep at the same table as northerners. Except for those who are very close, they always eat separately. Gu Yan has never eaten like this with anyone since he can remember. , couldn't help but flushed a little on his face: "This servant is terrified, I'm so abrupt."

"It's because I was being rude." The emperor felt a little uncomfortable doing such a thing for the first time, "I just want to try——When I was in Beijing, I saw a poor family at a wonton noodle stall on the street. Bowls of wontons or noodles. I pay them to eat whatever they want. It’s still the same as a family. I’m used to eating it like this, and it’s delicious. I, I just want to try it, and eat like this with my family. taste."

The emperor's tone was very sincere, and obviously he didn't think there was anything wrong with calling Gu Yuan "family member". Gu Yuan softened his heart, only felt that his face was getting hotter, and he lowered his head and corrected the plate: "Then ——What do you think, my lord?"

Gu Yuan's words didn't mean to say goodbye. The emperor was overjoyed, and brought another chopsticks of noodles to Gu Yuan's lips: "One more person eats, it really tastes better. From now on, A Yuan, you can eat with me! "

Gu Yan shook his head, and picked up another pair of silver chopsticks from the tray: "That would be too presumptuous. The servant is also presumptuous, but the young master ordered it, and the servant is no exception."

Since it is a family, what is there to presume?The emperor didn't take it seriously, but he was still more happy in his heart.After distributing a bowl of noodles regardless of each other, the emperor picked up the two letters of credence, glanced at the gift list, and suddenly had an idea: "A Yuan, I remember that you want a music box to take apart and take a look." , can you choose?"

"not yet."

The smile on the emperor's face suddenly became wider: "Have you heard about Tianzhu?"

"I heard something from my father." Gu Yuan said, "The royal family of Tianzhu is named Zhan Muer, and they have a lot of grievances with Dashi. My father mentioned it to me a few years ago. At that time, the king of Tianzhu was nearly [-] years old and had more than a hundred sons. , and searched for beauties everywhere, some Tianzhu merchants would rather not take their sons with them when they went to sea, and they would bring their daughters with them, for fear of being snatched into the palace. I don’t know if they are still in power now.”

"That's how you live and die as stupid as you say." The emperor sneered slightly, and handed the letter of credence to Gu Yuan, "Ah Yuan, since you also know about Tianzhu, let me take a look at the two kingdoms. Book, how should I deal with it?" When she saw that Gu Yan was about to decline again, she said first, "Of course I have to discuss it with the courtiers, now I will show it to you first, and then listen to it, and I will be cautious about such a big matter." She said After thinking about it again, "Nowadays Xiyang and Dashi are staring at each other, there are some things that should be prepared. A Yuan, you know Xiyang Machinery, so you will manage the Eight Music Hall for me, and the tribute sent by the foreign domain will be handed over to you first. Some ingenuities can be used as stones from other mountains, so they will be left behind. There is a group in the palace building office that specializes in Western ingenious things. When they return to the palace, they will also be handed over to you to take care of them. , only clocks and music boxes, if they can be imitated, they can also open workshops to make money like Westerners, and can give many people a bowl of food."

Although these things are complicated, they are more in line with Gu Yuan's wishes than pouring water at Yuqian. Since the emperor's words are convincing, Gu Yuan does not refuse: "I will go to Luan Yisi tomorrow to collect the sign and check the tribute."

"If you have any thoughts and opinions at that time, you might as well tell me together." The emperor asked solemnly on his face, but he continued to ponder in his heart: tributes from dozens of countries, fine and small pieces are placed in more than a dozen rooms, and no one is ten. I can't finish watching it for half a month, so Gu Yuan can't spare the effort now!When I find something else for Yuan Li to do tomorrow, I will let him be the minister of ceremonial guards. He will not only be assigned to the errands of King Yu of Qing, but also stay with the emperor in the paddock from beginning to end - neither of them can spare time. Didn't the agreement to discuss the articles naturally come to nothing?

Gu Yan didn't know the emperor's calculations. Seeing the emperor sitting on the couch smiling and lost in thought, he thought the emperor was tired, so he hurriedly withdrew the case for incense, watched the emperor lie down, and raised his hand to put down the curtain.In order to prevent someone from carrying a murder weapon, the palace people are not allowed to change clothes in the tent, and unless the emperor gives permission, otherwise the clothes and skirts can only be left outside the tent.Gu Yan was about to leave the tent, but the emperor grabbed his arm and smiled at her: "There are so many rules, the paddock is different from other places, it's so cold, you go out like this, be careful not to freeze." She said on a whim, laughing Said, "You have served me so many times, this time, I will serve you once." He raised his hand to untie Gu Yuan's jacket.

The emperor's hands were quick, and Gu Yuan was so embarrassed that she had no time to refute. She had already untied the ribbon on the coat, pulled Gu Yuan's lapel and said, "raise your hand." I do that every day, don't I?"

It was the first time for Gu Yan to be dismissed as "stupid" by others, and he was also aroused - they already ate and slept at the same table, so what's so taboo about changing clothes?She made up her mind, and simply imitated the emperor's previous appearance, raising her hands horizontally, waiting for the emperor to make a move.

Palace people don't have many clothes, one jacket and one skirt, and the middle clothes are inside.The emperor was still unsatisfied, and pressed his hands on the collar of Gu Yan's jacket: "It's not worth it."

It's me who is being treated lightly, and the emperor still thinks it's not worth it?Gu Yan frowned: "The servant is stupid, what's not worth it?"

The emperor's face was closer to Gu Yuan, so close that Gu Yuan could smell the faint aroma of wine between her breaths: "You take off so many things from me every day, but I only take off two from you." She suddenly With force, Gu Yan was pulled into his arms and fell backwards.The two fell on the couch together like a gourd, and the emperor stood up, still holding on to Gu Yuan's collar: "A Yuan, it's worthwhile if I have to serve you to take off one more piece. Tell me, I want you to take it off." Which one do you take off?"

The emperor's wine was obviously not very good, Gu Yan couldn't laugh or cry, but just refused: "Young master is drunk, let's rest earlier."

"I've never been drunk." The smile on the emperor's face gradually faded, he reached out to take Gu Yuan's hand, and kissed her lightly on the palm, "A Yuan, I just want to see you smile."

The emperor's words were as solemn as if promulgating an imperial decree. Gu Yan wanted to laugh, but felt his eyes warm up, and he forced a smile to the emperor: "Master, do you want to see your slaves laughing like this?"

"I want to be more sincere." The emperor kissed the corner of Gu Yuan's lips lightly, "I want you to assist me by my side in an open and honest manner, I want you to live and die with me, and I want you to accompany me in sacrifice." By my side. Ah Yuan, I am willing to be the Emperor Taizu, and you will be the Empress of Shengwen for me, how about it?"

"Slave—"

"What kind of slave are you?" The emperor was dissatisfied, and pressed Gu Yuan's lips, not allowing her to continue, "Now it's only about you and me, regardless of monarchs and ministers. A Yuan, I like you, I only want you, are you willing to wait?" Wait for me to fight for a title for you?"

"minister--"

"I said it earlier, so I don't need to call you that!" The emperor's tone was filled with anger, and he bit Gu Yan's lip hard. Seeing that she still wanted to speak, he simply blocked it with his lips, "If you don't change your mouth——"

Gu Yan was about to open his mouth, but was blocked by the emperor, and the tip of each other's tongues touched one place, both of them were shocked.The feeling of entanglement between lips and tongue was strange but confusing, and the impulse that had been suppressed in the emperor's heart revived, and it was almost out of control.After some entanglement, the two came out panting and hot all over, the emperor stared at Gu Yuan's bright red lips, and had no other thoughts.

"A Yuan," she reached out and pulled Gu Yuan's hand to her chest, "If you don't want to, stop me."

The emperor's eyes were clear, full of wholehearted nostalgia, with his palm pressed against the emperor's chest, he could feel the emperor's rapid heartbeat.How difficult can it be for an emperor to have a female official by his side?She can justifiably make an order, or she can strike when she is in a state of confusion and love just now, but she, the emperor, really keeps her promise, and at such a time, she is still waiting for Gu Yan's willingness.

Gu Yuan smiled lightly.No matter what the future will be, the emperor is sincerely promising her a thousand dollars at this time. She admires the emperor, likes the emperor, admires the emperor's diligence and self-control, and likes her emperor's petty temper towards her. The emperor only wants her, and she only wants If you want one from the emperor, why not give it a try?

"Eleven Niang," the moment the name came out, Gu Yan suddenly felt as if all the worries he had been worrying for a long time were gone, and he felt a lot more relaxed, "If I don't stop it, what about you?"

The eyes of the people in front of him flickered, making the emperor almost breathless.She suppressed her ecstasy, and kissed Gu Yuan's finger upwards along her arm all the way through the clothes, unbuttoning Gu Yuan's collar and belt with one hand.After the middle coat was opened wide, the emperor pressed Gu Yuan's hands familiarly on Gu Yuan's chest. He felt that Gu Yuan was shrinking under him, and his breathing became a little short, and he took advantage of the fire to kiss Gu Yuan's lips.

The taste of entwined lips and tongues still makes people linger, the emperor is confused and fascinated, but at the same time, there is a different kind of sobriety in his heart: her Gu Yan is finally going to truly belong to her.
