Chapter 386
Knowing that his son was back safe and sound, and being able to carry Gu Yuqing all the way back to Chinanhou Mansion under Gu Zhen's nose, this meant that the emperor was dizzy for a moment because he felt sorry for his son. He might not be able to bear it, but Concubine Hui was. See through.

How could she be in a bad mood?

If you want to marry a satisfactory wife, you deserve to suffer some punishment.

Gu Zhen is clearly testing Yu'er!
Concubine Hui has never been a doting mother.

The emperor scolded Gu Zhen angrily all by himself for a long time, but in his heart he realized Gu Zhen's intentions long ago, but his son is his own after all, even if he understands Gu Zhen's intentional temptation, he still feels aggrieved.

After lying down for a long time, he ate a cup of blood swallow porridge served by Concubine Hui, which was also the first thing he took in his mouth in the past few days. He felt a little better and the emperor immediately called the chamberlain, "Go, Order some fireworks for me."

The head chamberlain's eyes immediately jumped.

This time in the middle of the night... not to mention it is out of season, even if it is, you cannot put out fireworks at this time. Not to mention disturbing the concubines, I am afraid that the Queen Mother will not be able to bear the fright.

Just as she was about to persuade her, Concubine Hui turned to her personal maid and said, "Go to the Queen Mother and tell her that Miss Gu from the Chinan Marquis Mansion is back. Don't worry about her."

The head chamberlain's eyelids twitched again.

I felt sad, but luckily I didn't say anything to persuade him.

Turning around to go out, in just a few blinks, the palace was filled with fireworks and firecrackers.

Suddenly, in the silent palace, all the palaces and courtyards were brightly lit.

Not to mention the reactions of the people, just here in Concubine Hui's bedroom, the emperor stood in the courtyard, held Concubine Hui in his arms, looked up at the bright fireworks in the sky, and said to Concubine Hui: "The flood has just passed, and the rescue after the disaster is still here. Proceed, if I do this...won't it make people angry?"

Concubine Hui pursed her lips and smiled, shook her head and said: "The common people are suffering. Looking at these fireworks can make you feel better. If your Majesty feels uneasy, please peel off some more silver so that the victims can live a stable life as soon as possible."

The emperor sighed after hearing this, "The war in the Liao Kingdom is about to begin..."

He didn't continue what he said, but even if he didn't say it, Concubine Hui also understood.

War has always consumed the most silver and materials, not to mention that South Vietnam is as turbulent as Canglan. She raised her slender hand and laid it on the emperor's chest. She stroked it softly for a few times. Concubine Hui said: "The emperor's heart is full of valleys, and I can't help you." I dare to speculate, but I still know the principle of taking something from the people and using it for the people. Corrupt officials pervert the law, and none of this corrupt money is not a gift from the people."

The emperor laughed out loud as he listened, reaching out to hold Concubine Hui's hand on his chest tightly, "What you said is exactly what I meant."

After saying that, the emperor sighed sadly again, "You are so smart, who did Yu'er follow? Why do you only know how to have fun and not make progress!"

As soon as the emperor said this, Concubine Hui pursed her lips and smiled, but did not answer.

While the emperor was talking, he realized that something was wrong with his words.

Xiao Yu is the son of him and Concubine Hui. Unlike Concubine Hui, he is naturally like him. Thinking about what he said just now, the corner of the emperor's mouth trembled a few times, and then he immediately changed his words, "It is my son after all. Gu Yuqing came back safe and sound all the way!"

That proud tone made it seem as if the son he was talking about was completely different and had nothing to do with Xiao Yu, who only knew how to eat, drink and have fun!

It was clear that he had not slept a wink all night, but his sleepiness was gone.

After chatting for a while, before we knew it, the sky was bright and we were having breakfast at Concubine Hui's place. There was a message from the chamberlain that Marquis Chi Nan was in the imperial study room asking for an audience.

Upon hearing Gu Zhen's arrival, the emperor put down his chopsticks and walked out with a menacing aura.

There was no need for the chamberlain to take action. When he reached the door of the royal study, the emperor raised his hand and pushed the door open with an aura of coming to seek justice for his son.

However, when Gu Zhen saw the emperor coming in, he immediately had a solemn look on his face and saluted with clasped fists, "My lord, Gu Zhen, come to say goodbye to your majesty."

Wearing a general's outfit on his body, he looks majestic.

Just because yesterday he searched for Gu Yuqing all over the mountains and plains all day long, and he didn't take a moment to rest, his eyes were still somewhat tired after all.

The emperor's aura of rushing in disappeared a bit, but when he thought about what Gu Zhen did to Xiao Yu last night, he was unwilling to let it go, but what Gu Zhen said didn't mention what happened last night at all. He only came to say farewell because of the war in Liao Kingdom. How could he change this topic.

Without saying a word, the emperor walked straight to the chair behind the desk and sat down, saying "hmm" as an answer.

However, just after the emperor said "yes" and was thinking about whether you really let my son walk all night, Gu Zhen stood up and said: "I leave!"

The emperor suddenly...

"You stop!"

Just as Gu Zhen was about to turn around, she stopped, looked back and raised her head, looking at the emperor, "What else does your Majesty want?" A sly smile flashed in his eyes.

The emperor's eyes touched Gu Zhen's face. His general was about to rush to the battlefield. The danger ahead, whether he was alive or dead, was unknown, but all he could think about was his son... With a flick of his mouth, the emperor's heart flashed. Layers of guilt.

He knew that the emotions in his heart were insignificant compared to what Gu Zhen was about to do, but he seemed to be in a daze, and he felt unhappy without asking, as if he couldn't breathe without asking.

Gu Zhen suppressed a smile and saw the emperor's face turned upside down. He took the initiative to hand the steps over, "Oh, by the way, I forgot to report to the emperor that last night, His Highness the Fourth Prince and his daughter returned safely."

When the emperor heard this, the bewilderment that had been suppressed so easily suddenly came to his head again.

My son has returned safely. Why did you come to report to me? Could it be that he has become your son!

For some reason, the emperor became cautious in an instant.

At this inopportune moment, he couldn't get around the corner in his heart, and slapped the table, the emotions in his chest finally gushed out, "Gu Zhen, why did you let my son walk all the way back from Longyang Mountain!"

The words he had been holding back for a long time came out, and the emperor suddenly felt refreshed.

Even if Gu Zhen couldn't give him any answer, it didn't matter. The key was to say these words.

However, Gu Zhen seemed to have planned it, and immediately smiled when he heard this, "The emperor's intention is not to let him come back? I am so stupid that I don't know the emperor's intentions. Then...I will send someone to send him back to Longyang now." Mountain?"

The emperor didn't even raise his breath, looked at Gu Zhen angrily, gritted his teeth and said, "Gu Zhen!"

Gu Zhen smiled lightly, "I'm here!" His face was calm and calm.

Seeing the sly smile on Gu Zhen's face that was so angry that he wouldn't pay for his life, the emperor shook his eyes and said, "You did it on purpose!"

 Thanks for the reward from the lovely Shengshilanshan!
