late night song

Chapter 111 Listening to the Wind in the Corner
This time the oiran's conferment ceremony was arranged in the small square in front of the vacant ceremonial hall outside the Hehe Yuquan Palace.

Gu Yuchu couldn't help but sigh, even if this brothel girl was awarded the title of Golden Flower Marquis, she was still a lowly person to these naturally noble royal relatives, even if she was dressed in silk and satin, and had more gold and jade.

The ceremony was not as grand as expected.It was just a formality for the ceremony officer to go through the formalities, issue the slave release documents, and hand over the copper plate to the Marquis of Hua.

Mo Qian felt very lonely because the Lord Lejia had not personally granted her the title, but Gu Yuchu beside her was extremely relaxed. It seemed that God was still favoring her, and she had simply avoided such a big trouble.

After the ceremony, according to unwritten rules, a banquet will be held in the palace tonight to allow all officials to see the top three oirans.

This bad news was told to Gu Yuchu by Yanfeng after the ceremony, and it really was a chain of links!Fortunately, there is news from Yubai that Miss Sang'er is in good health, and everything will be fine when they return to their respective places.

The ceremony officer led them into the palace, but still placed them in the most convenient hall of Yuquan Palace. Fuyun Palace had obviously taken care of everything and chose the best room, followed by Suo Xing Palace.

Fortunately, the etiquette schedule was very full, and the three protagonists did not have time to say a word. Plus, they were covered with makeup, otherwise their secret would have been exposed long ago.After they entered the palace gate, they hid in their own rooms to make final preparations for tonight's banquet.

Gu Yuchu paced back and forth anxiously in his room.

"Ouch, you made me dizzy." Yan Feng sat aside and said impatiently while eating some fruit.

"Are you sure Sonny can come here in time? This is the imperial palace." Gu Yuchu curled his lips, thinking that there would be another one to rush the ducks to the shelves. With Le Jia still sitting on it, and with the civil and military officials of the dynasty, who knows what will happen. .

"Don't worry, everything has been taken care of. It won't take much effort for such a remote courtyard in the palace." Yan Feng didn't care.

Others might not believe this, but Gu Yuchu still believed it.Suo Xing Palace and Fu Yun Palace were behind the two powerful kingdoms of Dongqi and Beiling. This mere Yuquan Palace was nothing.

"The conferment ceremony has passed, why are we still holding a banquet? We have too much money and no place to spend it, right?" Gu Yuchu put his hands on his waist, his face full of disbelief.

"Women are all for people to play with. Some of them can be famous for their wisdom and talent." Yanfeng shook his head, looking like he had seen through the world.

"I think you are no different from those pedantic old men who are high-ranking officials!" Seeing that she was a woman and despised women so much, Gu Yuchu felt a little angry. Because he was used to bickering, he couldn't help scolding her.

"If I were one of those powerful old men, the first thing I would do would be to dismiss the inner court for you and only marry a beautiful girl like you." Yan Feng didn't take it seriously at all. Instead, he teased Gu Yuchu's chin with his finger. He stood up, his eyes full of tenderness and sweetness.

Gu Yuchu had goosebumps all over his body. He pushed her and signaled the little goblin to stay away from him.

The two of them waited until noon, then a young eunuch led a palace maid to knock on their door with a food box. After opening the door, the young palace lady looked up and it turned out to be the disguised girl Sonner.

Gu Yuchu was overjoyed and hurriedly took the food box. Laofeng quietly gave the young eunuch a certain amount of money, and Dafa quickly left.

After entering the room, Miss Sonner sat down on the bench, rubbed her arms, and kept muttering: "This box is so heavy, I carried it all the way, and I was exhausted."

"Let's change our clothes quickly." Gu Yuchu was eager to take off these poisonous clothes.

"Have you been hit in the face?" Miss Sang'er looked up and was startled when she saw Gu Yuchu's makeup. Gu Yuchu's embarrassment was palpable.

"We'll change clothes later. Come over and rub it for me first." Miss Sang'er completely forgot about the topic for a while, frowning, still rubbing her wrist, instructing Gu Yuchu like a maid.

"Don't glare so hard?!" Yan Feng couldn't stand it anymore, he held his arms and frowned and said angrily to Sonner.

Unexpectedly, Miss Sang'er didn't reply. Although she had a look of reluctance, she still chose to settle the matter and not argue.

Now, Gu Yuchu was even more impressed by Yan Feng. Yan Feng had a bad temper. He never liked people who thought too highly of themselves. There were also verbal conflicts, but today it was different.

This San'er girl is extremely graceful and has an arrogant and willful temperament. She is excellent in every application in Suo Xing Palace. She is bossy and arrogant to everyone. Even Juan Niang gives her a little bit of credit, but today her style of speech is just that. A casual sentence made Son'er bow his head easily. This was the first time Gu Yuchu saw it.

"Change your clothes." Miss Son'er began to untie her belt irritably.

Yanfeng was very satisfied when he saw this. He looked at Gu Yuchu teasingly and said, "Take off your clothes too."

"Here?" Gu Yuchu was also surprised that they were so bold.

"Otherwise? Who is not a woman? Hurry up, it's time to start dressing up again later." Yan Feng urged.

Therefore, Gu Yuchu had to exchange clothes with Sonny in front of others.

"The workmanship of this skirt is average. Your waist is so thick that it's stretched out." Sonny put on the pearl skirt and said with disgust.Gu Yuchu didn't bother to reply to her. The dress was so exquisitely made that it was comparable to the specifications of a queen in the palace, but the people of Sang'er didn't take it seriously at all. It seemed that Ling Ziyu had taken her very seriously, and she was another beauty hidden in a golden house.

She smiled meaningfully and looked down at herself. Compared to this pearl fairy skirt, she was still much more comfortable in the light blue palace dress.

After changing his clothes, and then taking off the terrible thick makeup on his face, Gu Yuchu seemed to be alive again, and even the air smelled sweet.

The time was just right, and after everything was settled, the aunties who dressed up came to dress up the three upstarts.

Gu Yuchu thought that he would have nothing to do without him, so he quietly left without telling Yan Feng.I originally thought about leaving the palace quickly, but then I thought, since I finally entered the Yuquan Palace and was dressed like a palace maid, I might as well just stroll around.

This Yuquan Palace is much smaller than the palace in Dongqi. Gu Yuchu relied on his experience in and out of Dongqi Palace, and it was smooth sailing.

Inadvertently, she walked around to a secluded courtyard and saw Le Jia Huanyu and Qi Yiyu sitting in the pavilion talking with no one around.

She wanted to turn around and leave, but when she heard Qi Jian's name, she couldn't resist her curiosity and secretly hid in the corner and listened.

"Yu'er, what's the situation over there in Dongqi? Is Qijie already the crown prince?" Le Jiahuanyu asked.

"He alone controls the court and military affairs. Although he has not announced it to the world, it is already confirmed." Qi Jinyu returned.

"Qi Yanzhao (Emperor Ming) is really willing to delegate power? Is there any room left here?"

"I don't think it's possible. My father just sings, dances and listens to music every day, and he looks like he's just enjoying his old age."

"If you can hold Dong Qi's power, then He He can sit back and relax." Le Jia Huanyu sighed.

"I have the blood of the Lejia royal family in my body. It is also because of this that my father has never given me a chance. If not, how could he allow me to wander around the mountains and rivers." Qi Yiyu smiled dejectedly.

Gu Yuchu suddenly understood that it was not that Qi Yiyu did not love the imperial power, but that he had known early on that he had no chance, so he silently gave up the competition, and it was just a helpless move to indulge in the mountains and rivers.

"Uncle knows that you are a good boy with ambitions." Le Jia Huanyu gently patted his shoulder and comforted him.

"Uncle, there is no need to comfort me. At least my father intends to let me take care of Zongyu Villa. With the support of the world's largest bank, it will not be difficult to keep Hehe."

Gu Yuchu was shocked. In the past, he only knew that Zong Yushan Villa was wealthy and powerful, but he didn't know that he was one with the Dongqi royal family.It seems that the whole world is the land of the royal family. If the royal family controls the country, it also controls everything in the world.

"Yu'er, you don't know that Beiling has been doing a lot recently. The old emperor tried his best to invade Hehe's government. He openly tried to prevent the Xirong from harassing him, restricted the power of military dispatch and border defense layout, and secretly bribed important officials in the imperial court with the intention of evading his power. I, I think, in less than three years, He He will be Beiling's bag."

"Dong Qi will not sit idly by and ignore it."

"What's different about the ambition of a wolf? Didn't you come here this time to answer Qi Yanzhao's order and persuade me, He He, to open the banks of the Ling River and surrender to Dong Qi? Alas, is the hundred-year-old Lejia glory destined to be destroyed in my hands? Huh?!" Le Jia Huanyu smashed the table in excitement and said with grief and anger.

"Uncle, there is no need for this. Times have changed and the situation has changed. Let's see step by step. The most urgent task is to use Dong Qi's power to defeat Beiling's conspiracy." Qi Yiyu hurriedly comforted.

Le Jia Huanyu sighed and nodded helplessly.

"By the way, what are you going to do with the two female uncles sent by Dongqi and Beiling?"

"Beiling is just preparing with both hands. He sent someone to my side to monitor me. If he can give birth to a prince, he can support the young master and then find someone to take over Hehe. So I have to let Dong Qi get it. It's cheap, and it gives a little face to Qi Yanzhao. The oiran won't be around to serve him, so he can get rid of him after a while. As for the unsuccessful candidate, there will be ministers asking for him at today's banquet, so Beiling won't be so angry by then. .”

All of this was exactly as Gu Yuchu had guessed. The struggle between the Three Kingdoms was everywhere.

"Yeah." Qi Yiyu was not surprised.

"One more thing, you go back to Dongqi and tell Qi Yanzhao that there is no rush to surrender, but after the Beginning of Summer, your eleventh sister will reach the age of hairpin, and I will personally arrange a wedding for her. Emperor Ming will naturally understand. But you must find a way to get Qi Jian to come to Hehe in person to ask for it." Le Jia Huanyu calculated that if his daughter could be named Dong Qi's new queen, then his chances of winning would be even greater.

Of course Qi Jinyu understood his uncle's thoughts, but he was extremely conflicted in his heart. Gu Yuxin was the biggest enemy in his heart. When he thought of how she would be tired of dealing with all kinds of intrigues and jealousies in the future, he felt heartbroken. Gu Yuchu, that selfish and damned woman, pushed her into such a hopeless situation.

Gu Yuchu hung up his neck and listened to so much. He couldn't help but feel sad. He stood in such a high position and had so many things he couldn't help himself. It didn't matter who he married. What mattered was the chips and benefits behind it.

What about yourself?
She had nothing, and there was indeed no need to stay by his side.
