famous eldest daughter

Chapter 825 Walking Back
Hearing the words, the servant girl immediately let out a long sigh of relief, nodded her head in agreement, and knelt down to send the emperor away.

The door opened, and through the palace lanterns and the slightly red sky, the eyes were filled with silver makeup. Even though the air was cold and strong, it made people wake up for a moment.

Concubine Hui's place was not far from the emperor's study room, so the emperor only supported the arm of the chamberlain, and walked through the snow that had accumulated overnight.

Although there was no wind, it was still a winter night, and the cold air hit my face, causing it to hurt.

The heavy snow was still falling silently, and the snowflakes were so thick and fast that it was hard to keep one's eyes open. The road was slippery in the snow, and the emperor walked all the way to the imperial study, turning into a snowman from head to toe.

The shoes under his feet had long been soaked by the snow, but it had been a long time since he had walked like this, so the emperor didn't feel cold. Instead, he was relieved of the previous dullness and felt a little more excited.The snow is falling heavily, as if time has gone back, and I have returned to that carefree age where I could have snowball fights...

At that time, it was so good... He could smash a snow dumpling on Gu Zhen's head without any scruples, and Gu Zhen could stuff a snow dumpling directly into the back of his neck without any scruples.

Gu Zhen is always more cunning than him.

The heat from the royal study rushed to his face, melting the ice crystal snowflakes in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows, but the emperor still had traces of excitement that had not dissipated.

However, the head chamberlain was terrified all the way. When he finally reached the imperial study room, he immediately asked someone to bring him clean clothes and urged the emperor to take a hot bath. He watched him come out with clean clothes and wring his hair. The whole process , he breathed a sigh of relief without a single sneeze.

But in the end, someone still added a brazier.

After taking a bath, the emperor took a cup of strong ginger tea from the chamberlain, raised his head and drank it, "How is the investigation on the remnants of Canglan?"

The chief chamberlain took the empty cup handed by the emperor, passed it to the young chamberlain behind him, and reported back: "It's the servant Sui Su who has been eliminated. There are 89 people in total, all of whom were cultivated by Han Chaoen."

98 people, this number is already considered huge...

The emperor nodded, turned around behind the desk, lifted his clothes and sat down, and sighed, "No wonder you, it's my stupid eyes that let him be blinded for so many years."

The chamberlain was about to bow even lower, "How can I blame your Majesty? It is clear that the Korean thief has a vicious mind. Your Majesty is open-minded and aboveboard. There is no way to guard against thieves for a thousand days."

When the emperor heard this, he sighed quietly, and after asking how to deal with it, the matter was dismissed. The emperor said: "In the side hall today, when Ke'er called Gu Yuqing sister, what did you think? ?”

When the chamberlain heard this, his heart immediately tightened and he took a breath silently before saying: "This slave is really scared. He usually just makes jokes and shouts for fun. How come he looks like he is serious? He screams It’s heartbreaking that someone who didn’t know it thought that Miss Gu was really his sister..."

No matter what the head chamberlain said after that, the emperor was attracted by his words, "On weekdays, it's just a joke, that's all." Before the chamberlain could finish, he said, "He usually calls Gu Yuqing sister?"

The head chamberlain immediately paused and said: "I have heard it once or twice occasionally. I don't know if it has been called like this all the time. His temperament, if not for the fact that he has become close to the fourth prince in recent months. There is a little more color, but before he had always been cold and dull, rarely speaking."

The emperor actually acknowledged what the chamberlain said.

This ninth son, because his biological mother died as soon as he was born, he was later raised by the Xian Concubine. The Xian Concubine, who was originally upright, polite, and interesting, seemed to have become a different person for some reason, and every time he interacted with her When you come into contact with her, there is always a strong snobbish air in her words, which makes people have headaches and evil.

The emperor felt that Xiao Ke was an unlucky child, so he was alienated and indifferent to him from beginning to end. He even knew that he was in the palace, but as a prince, he lived a life of hunger and was abused by the concubine in every possible way. Just pretend not to see him.

A prince who is not valued by his father has no choice but to endure and cover up if he wants to survive.

Therefore, from another perspective, Xiao Ke has been walking around the palace disguised as a gray figure, which can be regarded as his cleverness.

It wasn't until he somehow fell into Yu'er's eyes that his life gradually changed...

How did he catch Yu'er's eye... It seems that a few months ago, Yu'er came to him in person and begged him to take Xiao Ke out of the palace to play... It seems that they left after that Close...

My heart was in a mess.

What is Xiao Ke's identity? Does Yu'er know it or not, and how much he knows... The emperor hopes that Xiao Yu is innocent and knows nothing about it, but he is also afraid that he knows everything and doesn't tell...

That feeling of belief but doubt tortured him as if he was being roasted in oil.

Taking a deep breath, the emperor did not want to think about Xiao Ke's true identity anymore, but said to the chief chamberlain: "I plan to give an adoptive heir to the old general Gusu in Qibei. Please help me pay attention. Look. Let’s see who has the right child.”

When the chamberlain heard this, he frowned slightly.

He rarely showed such an expression in front of the emperor. When the emperor saw it, the light in his eyes suddenly condensed and he looked at him seriously.

The chief chamberlain immediately raised his fist and bowed, and replied: "How come your majesty is so good that you think of adopting an heir to the old general Gusu? This is no small matter."

The emperor fixed the gaze of the chamberlain, motionless, "It should have been so, but I have never been free." What made the chamberlain uncontrollably frown was definitely not the words he just said.

Ru Mang's gaze remained motionless. The chamberlain took a deep breath, bent down even lower, and said, "This servant thinks that with his status as an old general in Gusu, what kind of child is worthy of being his Gusu disciple?" Not to mention other things, the heir of the third generation must be distinguished by his status."

"But who has a noble status and is not a treasure in the palm of his parents' hands, and who would be willing to do so? Even if his parents think about the loyalty of the whole family in Gusu, and their friendship is unforgettable, what about this child? The person your Majesty chooses must be someone who can distinguish right from wrong. , In this case, will this child go to Qibei willingly? Will there be no resentment in his heart? If so, Your Majesty will actually contribute to bad things with good intentions. "

The emperor was tossing and turning on Concubine Hui's bed and was puzzled by what the chamberlain said.

But he must give this heir to the Gusu family.

Not for anything else, even for my own peace of mind.

Seeing that the chief chamberlain frowned because of this, the emperor withdrew his eyes and gave him a sideways look, "Old man, you know how to overcome difficulties with me. If it is an easy problem, why should I leave it to you?"
