Chapter 33

A piece of red wax was lit outside the tent, the fire was beating and shimmering, and the aroma of the beast head copper furnace was lingering.

The emperor looked sideways at Gu Yinwei's face.

The two held hands, heart to heart.

"Do you like Jiaofangdian?"

"The concubine likes it."

"Then live here for a long time."

"The concubine is not used to living alone in such a big palace."

"I will accompany you."

"The emperor is busy with state affairs, and it is time to accompany his concubines, which is very rare."

"As soon as I am free, I will come back to accompany you."

Gu Yin smiled slightly, his eyes were brighter than the stars in the sky.

Her face was very close to the emperor, and the fragrance from her body rushed towards him. The emperor seemed to be in a bush of flowers, and it was like opening a pot of dusty old wine by accident. The aroma of the wine aroused the greed in his heart. drunk.

Gu Yinwei is very courageous, from bottom to top, like a ball of flame.

The emperor's breathing became short of breath, and his right hand trembled slightly. This hand could move the steel knife and hold the rein, but it couldn't hold her willow waist.

Gu Yinwei's cheeks were flushed, the emperor's hand pressed her hair, her head was in chaos.

Beautiful scenery on a good day, a beautiful woman in your arms, what kind of fairy is it?
It's good now, at least the person next to him is chosen by himself, the red candle is burned out, the emperor slowly closes his eyes, Gu Yinwei has been asleep for a long time.

When the emperor walked out of the Jiaofang Hall, his legs fluttered. Seeing this, Xunhe brought him the ginseng soup that he had prepared earlier.

After a while, the emperor handed Fugui an empty bowl, and Fugui ran up to Mr. Guo with the bowl in his hand, "Look, is this bowl round or not?"

Director Guo was very busy, "You have a round head, come here and give me a knock twice."

Fugui squatted on the ground with a white glazed porcelain bowl at his feet.

"Master Guo, let me tell you, the emperor didn't..." Before he had time to say the words.

Master Guo immediately covered his mouth, "Don't talk nonsense, you're going to lose your head."

Master Guo took out the banknotes from his purse and poured them into the bowl in front of Fugui, jingling, the copper coins fell into the bowl with a crisp sound, at this moment Fugui felt like a beggar.

"The housewife is strict, that's all."

Fugui picked up the bowl and counted the copper coins in the bowl.

"Boss Guo, you are not sincere. Twelve copper coins want to seal my mouth."

After Fugui finished speaking, he stared at Mr. Guo, as if he wanted to scrape some oil from him.

Director Guo took off the writing brush on the desk, twisted his hand into the holder of the writing brush, the writing brush was separated from it, and there was a silver ticket hidden inside, Fugui reached out and grabbed it, "Hey, 50 taels for nothing."

Fugui smiled happily, "Master Guo, remember to call me next time you drink."

"Okay, I'll call you." Did I tell you to come over and cheat my money? I won't call you again next time I drink.

Mr. Guo has saved up this little private money for many years. Taking his money is more uncomfortable than cutting his flesh.

Master Guo warned himself that he must drink less and gamble less in the future, and don't make fun of the master's privacy, otherwise it will be easy to be caught and threatened by others.

"Break money and eliminate disasters, great auspiciousness." Director Guo murmured, and then buried his head at his desk.

A eunuch in Tsing Yi walked in from outside. The young eunuch was holding a golden token in his hand. When Mr. Guo saw the token, he immediately stood up from his chair and stared at the eunuch with a humble attitude.

"The Empress Dowager ordered that Director Guo go to the Palace of Compassion and Ning to have an audience."

Master Guo put on the red book, adjusted the hat on his head, and followed the eunuch who sent the message to the Palace of Compassion.

There were two court ladies sweeping the floor at the door, and two luthiers sat opposite each other playing the piano under the eaves, and Aunt Fang, who was beside the Queen Mother, stood at the door to greet her.

Director Guo knew that Aunt Fang was not picking him up, so he bent down and held the red book in both hands. Aunt Fang took the red book with one hand, turned and entered the inner hall.

Master Guo kept silent and waited for the summons.

In the main hall, the Empress Dowager took off her armor and flipped through the red book. She turned the book page by page, and finally stopped at the page where Gu Yinwei's name was recorded.

"Gu Yinwei, on the fifteenth day of the year, on his birthday, on the 28th of the twelfth lunar month, both parents died..."

The Empress Dowager read a paragraph according to the words on the red book, seeming to be talking to herself, and also seeming to be whispering, "This Gu Changyi's mother's family is in decline, his parents are dead, and there is only one younger sister in the palace. It can be seen that he is a poor child with no roots. "

Aunt Fang pinched the queen mother's leg lightly, and replied with a smile, "It's nothing to worry about before Gu Changyi entered the palace, but now that the Lord Long Live loves her, it's a blessing in disguise."

The queen mother closed the booklet, and Aunt Fang stood up to help the queen mother put on the armor.

"In recent years, the emperor has been obsessed with cultivating Taoism and has not been close to women. His favor for Gu Changyi can be regarded as the first in the harem. Gu Changyi is indeed a reward for suffering."

The Empress Dowager's face was full of sorrow, Aunt Fang explained: "The children and grandchildren have their own blessings, and the Empress sits in the harem, so the Empress Dowager does not need to worry."

"Because I have a queen, the Ai family is not at ease. Look at the stupid things she has done recently. She embezzled money from the palace to make up for the bottomless pit of the Qiu family. No wonder the emperor doesn't like her, and even the Ai family doesn't like her."

"Ask Concubine Zhen and Concubine Jin to help Gu Changyi more. The emperor finally returned to the palace, and finally got a woman. If something happened to Gu Changyi, the emperor would run back to Jiuhua Peak in a fit of anger, and go to the harem for a while. The big business has to fall on Ai's head again."

"Director Guo is still outside." Aunt Fang reminded.

"Let him in." The Empress Dowager said angrily, as if she had a big opinion on Mr. Guo.

Master Guo was trembling, and knelt in front of the queen mother, "Guo Lei, the humble officer, please greet the queen mother."

The queen mother didn't seem to hear it, Master Guo looked at Aunt Fang, and Aunt Fang's face was ashen.

"Guild Minister Guo Lei, please greet the Empress Dowager."

"Sinner, what is your crime?" The queen mother was not angry, her eyes were piercing.

"Sinners shouldn't chew their tongues."

"Aijia is not that you cannot tolerate the mistakes of your subordinates, but that you cannot tolerate that your subordinates make mistakes again and again."

"The guilty minister understands."

"It's good to understand, let's go back."

Director Guo withdrew from the palace gate, wiped the sweat from his brow, and left Ci'an Palace in a hurry.

The Queen Mother got up, and Aunt Fang helped her out for a walk. The Queen Mother was covered with a cloak inlaid with squirrel fur. This cloak was given to her by the Third Prince. The Third Prince traveled all over the world and brought her back a lot of fresh thing.

The current emperor and the third prince are both born to the empress dowager. At the beginning, the empress dowager was weak after giving birth and could not take care of the two princes by herself, so she entrusted the eldest son Zhu Dunyi, who was only two years old, to be raised by the empress dowager Chengui.

Therefore, the empress dowager is not close to the emperor. The empress dowager loves the youngest son the most, and this youngest son is the third prince.

At the beginning, the first emperor intended to support the third prince, but the queen mother recommended the eldest son, not because she thought the eldest son was so good, but because she couldn't bear to hurt the youngest son.

Women in the harem are often scheming, and she couldn't bear the young son to suffer from such scheming, so she sent him out of the palace early.

A few years ago, the emperor lived in Jiuhuafeng, she was very worried, afraid that the emperor would quit the business, and now she can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

When the autumn wind blows, yellow flowers are everywhere.

The chrysanthemums in Ci'an Palace are brighter than the ones outside the imperial study room. They are yellow and clear, like gold scattered all over the ground.

Outside the imperial study room, a dense clump of long-stemmed chrysanthemums is blooming, and the flowers dance with the breeze.

Fugui stood leaning on a pot of yellow flowers, counting on his fingers how to spend the huge sum of 50 taels, one tael for fried chestnuts, one tael for candied haws, and one tael for autumn pear cake.

Xun He said contemptuously, "What are you thinking about eating again?"

Fugui held up a 50 tael silver ticket and showed off, "Master, look, I have money."

"Children, what do you do with so much money, I will save it for you as a teacher."

Fugui is 12 years old this year, he is small but not stupid.

"The master always said to save the money for me. I entered the palace at the age of eight, and every time I got a reward, I would give it to the master. The master has saved it for so many years. How much money should I have?"

"You listen to the teacher to calculate for you."

"Last month you broke the glass cup and deducted 18 taels. At the beginning of the month, you changed shifts privately, sneaked out to feed the fish and deducted [-] yuan. At night, you secretly lit candles and deducted money..."

Xun He calculated for a long time, Fu Gui owed a whole lot of debt.

Xun He stretched out his hand, Fu Gui searched all his pockets, took out the few coins left and handed it to Xun He.

What is a self-paid errand?Wealth is a living example.

Working on errands every day, full attendance every month, I can't save a penny.

There is a shallow pond outside the Imperial Study Room, the surface of which is sparkling. Zhu Dunyi looked up, and there was a beam of afternoon sunlight cast from the gap between the two palaces. The pond was brightly illuminated, and his heart was like a pond. Tranquil and bright as a pool of water.

There is no war in the frontier, no rebellion in the country, and there are still endless batches of batches and letters that can't be finished every day. Jiuhuafeng is better, there is no need for copywriting, and there is no confusion.

Going back to the palace was not without any benefits, at least he saw the person he had been looking for.

Fugui covered his mouth and smiled secretly, "Master, do you think the emperor looks like a goose?"

"Stupid goose, what a dumb goose."

"A wild goose caught in longing."

Xun He crossed his arms and thought to himself, "It's kind of like that."

The emperor looked back suddenly, and the master and apprentice were so frightened that they broke up.

When Xun He turned his head, he glared at Fu Gui, "Don't laugh, don't talk nonsense."

"Master, you laughed louder than me just now. Master, what do you mean by boiled eggs? Is it boiled shrimp and eggs together?"

"Ah yes yes yes." Xun He turned and left.

When Fu Guipan was planning dinner, he went to the Imperial Dining Room and asked for a bowl of boiled shrimp and eggs.
