Chapter 81 The Three Days of Fasting Dispute

The next day the little maid called out and found that Su's side husband and His Majesty had both come out of the bedroom. The others lowered their heads and said nothing, but Xiang Lin couldn't help but rolled her eyes and curled her lips in disdain: The people of the Su family are really not very good Things, didn't you keep saying that they were guarding the outside?Why did you come out of His Majesty's bedroom again!

On the contrary, Gu Qinghua and Su Jun were calm and didn't care about everyone's various reactions.Su Jun said goodbye to her calmly, and wanted to go back to his own residence to freshen up, but Gu Qinghua stopped him, pondered for a while, raised his head and said: "You must be tired last night, go back and rest, I will fast today, it will be inconvenient for others disturb."

"Alright." Su Jun nodded, and said, "Your Majesty, don't forget to take the medicine on time, and the minister will come back at night." During the day, the palace is heavily guarded, so he can rest assured that at night, he will not leave her no matter what. and go.

Su Jun's insistence on this matter far exceeded Gu Qinghua's imagination. She smiled wryly and nodded.

Xianglin's face couldn't help but become even uglier. Tired last night?What do you mean by saying such ambiguous words in front of everyone!She lost Gu Qinghua's face!
Xianglin suddenly felt a little stuffy in her heart, and stepped forward with great effort, wanting to say something, glanced at the court ladies who were busy around Gu Qinghua combing her hair, putting on makeup and cleansing her face, finally endured, and said to Aunt Su He went to the small kitchen to see if the medicine was ready, then went out.

Because it is fasting, there is nothing to do for a day, and no one comes to see him.Because all the people who accompanied the sacrifice to the mausoleum needed to fast just like her.

But at night, Su Jun still came, but Xianglin blocked the door.

Su Jun was a little stunned. Although he was puzzled all the time and didn't understand why Xiang Lin always disliked him, he scratched his head and couldn't figure out how he had offended her!

"Your Majesty is fasting, you don't need side husband Su to sleep with you, side husband Su, please come back!" Xiang Lin was not polite when she opened her mouth.

Su Jun was startled, smiled, and said softly: "Miss Xianglin misunderstood, I am here to protect His Majesty. If I don't guard Your Majesty, I won't be able to sleep."

"The palace is heavily guarded, and there are hidden guards in the bedroom, Su's side husband must be worried too much." Xiang Lin was still aggressive.

Su Jun's face straightened, and he said, "Su Jun just wants peace of mind, Miss Xianglin should give way! Miss, did you forget what happened in the southern suburbs that day? It's not enough to have Night Breeze by His Majesty's side!" Without waiting for Xianglin to finish speaking What to say, went straight in.

Xianglin rushed in, and said to Gu Qinghua, "Your Majesty, Su Fangfu will definitely barge in. The matter of fasting is no small matter. If outsiders know about this, they will not be allowed to say anything!"

"I will not leave His Majesty's side!" Su Jun said decisively: "How about Miss Xianglin staying outside His Majesty's bedroom together?"

Xianglin was furious, and immediately said: "That's very good!"

"Xianglin, you—" Gu Qinghua felt a little sorry, Xianglin was delicate and expensive, how could she endure such pain?She can't bear it!
"Your Majesty, this servant feels very good." Xiang Lin interrupted her without hesitation.

Aunt Su and the other court ladies and eunuchs were dumbfounded. Look at this, look at that, they don't understand when Xianglin has such a temper!

Gu Qinghua was speechless, so he could only do as they wished.

For a while, everyone dispersed, busy with their own business.

Night Breeze, who was observing all this silently in the dark, was also puzzled and confused.With his innate sensitivity, he always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong...

So on the third day, which is also the last day of fasting, Gu Qinghua should go to the White Stone Hall on Tianshou Mountain and spend the night alone in the White Stone Hall to show his sincerity.

Unexpectedly, in the past two days, thick clouds piled up in the sky that was originally sunny in winter, and the cold wind became more and more intense day by day. Gu Qinghua's chest felt faint pain again. Some cough.

Aunt Su, Xianglin, King Li, etc. were all in a hurry: How can one feel at ease after spending the night alone on the Tianshou Mountain where the wind is blowing and the air is severe like this!If something happens to the mausoleum at the mausoleum ceremony the next day due to physical reasons, it is difficult to guarantee that someone will make a fuss about it, saying a few words about "God's will" and "ancestral gods' sins", which will cause people to panic, but just It's not worth the candle!

But the date of the mausoleum ceremony has been fixed, and it is absolutely impossible to change it.

Gu Qinghua didn't care much, and insisted that he was fine and nothing would happen to him.

King Li, Aunt Su, etc. did not speak. The deserted White Stone Palace on the mountain had no decent heating facilities at all. The mountain was already much colder than the palace, and a pot of hot water became icy cold in just a quarter of an hour. She was alone. It is not easy to spend the whole night up there, even with a big bearskin mattress and a silver fox cloak.

"Let me go up with His Majesty!" Su Jun said, anyway, he had already made up his mind.

"How can this be done!" Gu Qinghua was the first to object with a frown.She came to worship the mausoleum not for fun or to enjoy the blessings, but out of political needs to win people's hearts and improve her prestige.The worse the environment was, the more she showed her determination and sincerity, and brought Su Jun up, what is this?
Aunt Su agreed very much, and Xianglin didn't say anything.After all, her body came first, and even though she was unwilling to watch the night with Su Jun these two nights, she had to admit that, in fact, Su Jun was not as "that" as she imagined.

"I can't make this an example." Gu Qinghua's attitude was very firm.Tianshou City is a very special place, and offering sacrifices to the mausoleum is an extremely solemn matter. In this matter, she must be 100% flawless, and she will never allow the king and his gang to make a fuss about it Chance.

But Su Jun said: "Your Majesty did not make this case. If I remember correctly, after Emperor Taizong passed away, Gaozong was young, and when Gaozong sacrificed to the mausoleum in the third year, Empress Dowager Xianzhang also accompanied Gaozong to spend the night in the White Stone Palace. Your Majesty Everyone knows that you are not feeling well, so there is nothing wrong with a minister taking care of His Majesty."

Upon hearing this, King Li hurriedly said: "What Su Fangfu said is true! Your Majesty, the dragon body is important!"

What's more, if it wasn't for Gu's gang who insisted on going out of the city to greet him, His Majesty would not be injured. Now that the Queen's husband is fasting with His Majesty, who would dare to say anything?The most important thing is, Your Majesty, you are really unwell. You are alone on the top of the mountain. If something happens, he, the person in charge of this matter, will not be able to get rid of it anyway. If you say something like "unfavorable handling of affairs, poor arrangement", you can take him to the top of the tank.

He has disliked him for a long time, and he can clearly feel it!
"Since that's the case, Prince Li hastened to make arrangements! Before the sun sets, His Majesty and Su's side husband should go up the mountain!" Gu Qinghua was still hesitating, but Aunt Su had already spoken.

Gu Qinghua seldom refuted Aunt Su's words, and she thought about it, it's okay, let's see if the King of Political Affairs will make another oolong, with Su Jun around, at least he has a helper, no matter what, it's better than her alone there Be stronger!

At a quarter to three in the afternoon, the two of them finished dressing and boarded the chariot for Tianshou Mountain.

The newly-decorated Gu Qinghua is wearing a black cross-neck gown with large sleeves. The neckline and cuffs are decorated with vermilion wide borders, and gold threads are embroidered with lifelike dragon patterns in different postures at equal distances. The vermilion inlaid gold and jade belt is black The knees are covered with red flowers on the bottom, and a pair of black cloud lock boots with golden thread at the bottom of the thousand-layered bottom. Sober and elegant yet dignified.Su Jun was wearing an indigo cotton robe, long boots, and a silver crown with his hair tied up.

At the foot of Tianshou Mountain, Aunt Su and Xianglin supported Gu Qinghua to get off the chariot, and put a big sable cloak that reached to the heel over her luxurious and solemn robe.Su Jun also put on a sable cloak and looked up at the towering Tianshou Mountain. The weather was gloomy, surrounded by clouds and fog, and the mountain was majestic. , the wind swayed the trees, the grass leaves rustled, and it was as quiet as a swallow, shrill and ear-piercing.

Aunt Su, Xianglin, Yizheng Wang, Lijun Wang, representatives of the Gu clan and other people who saw them off remained silent, their faces were all solemn, and only each of them knew what was going on in their hearts.

"Your Majesty," King Lijun bowed to Gu Qinghua, solemnly said: "I can only send Your Majesty here, as it gets dark early in winter, please go up earlier with Your Majesty and Side Husband Su! People have already been dispatched to clean it up, the stove and charcoal fire have been cleaned up, and the roads are also clean. Since three days ago, the foot of the mountain has been under martial law, guarded by Habayashi military guards and local officers and soldiers, please rest assured, Your Majesty!"

Gu Qinghua held a plain handkerchief in his hand, his pink neck drooped slightly, he covered his mouth and coughed lightly a few times, his body shook slightly, looking weak and short of breath, Su Jun was amused in his heart, but his face showed Out of [-] points of concern, he hurriedly supported her firmly, and said with concern: "Your Majesty!"

Gu Qinghua deliberately acted as if nothing had happened, but in fact everyone could see that he was uncomfortable, stood firm, smiled and nodded at King Li, and said with a little weakness: "Why don't you feel relieved when King Li is doing things?" Yes? You all go back! Get ready, tomorrow, I will worship the ancestors of the imperial mausoleum with me, and ask my ancestors to bless me with good weather and a peaceful country!"

"Your Majesty is so pious, the former emperors will surely bless me and keep your Majesty in good health!" Everyone said in respectful voices, looking up at her with complicated eyes, moved, worried, admired, and - nest fire.

"Take care, Your Majesty, wait for your Majesty!" Lijun King said as he lifted his robe and knelt, and bowed his head upwards. Seeing this, everyone knelt down one after another, and said in unison: "Take care, Your Majesty, and wait for your Majesty!"

Gu Qinghua nodded, looked at each other with Su Jun, and climbed up Tianshou Mountain together. His figure gradually became smaller and smaller, turned around a corner, and disappeared from everyone's eyes. Then everyone got up and returned to the city silently.
