A mercenary in the world, a ruthless concubine

Chapter 197
"You know my feelings clearly, even if you don't accept it, it's fine, but now even my right to like someone is taken away. That scheming woman, Liang Yue'er, I only have endless disgust for her, shameless! As soon as Gu Changfeng finished speaking, Su Luo walked up to him and slapped him down.

This slap was not light, in just a few seconds, an obvious palm print appeared on Gu Li's face, and half of his face was swollen.A trace of blood slipped out from the corner of his mouth, Gu Changfeng just turned his head to one side, and didn't come back to his senses for a long time.

Qian Qiu was watching the relationship between the two of them a little stagnant, but Su Luo actually hit Gu Changfeng. Seeing that Gu Changfeng's mouth was bleeding, Qian Qiu pushed Su Luo with all his strength. Unprepared for a moment, he pushed back a few steps. "Mother is a bad person, how can you beat daddy, daddy..." Qianqiu ran to Gu Changfeng's side and tugged at Gu Changfeng's clothes distressedly.

Tears couldn't help falling down, Gu Changfeng knelt down to wipe away Qianqiu's tears, his eyes were full of distress, since he came to this small bamboo forest, Qianqiu had never cried again, but today he didn't want to cry again.Qian Qiu wiped the blood from the corner of Gu Changfeng's mouth frantically with his sleeve, as if he was afraid of hurting him. "Daddy, does it hurt?"

Gu Changfeng endured the pain on his right cheek and smiled: "Daddy doesn't hurt Qiu'er so don't cry, quickly wipe away the tears, Qiuer is sleepy too, daddy take Qiuer to sleep, okay?" Qian Qiu rubbed Dry Tears took Gu Changfeng's hand and walked inside.

When he walked to the door, Gu Changfeng turned his head and said to Su Luo who was staying where he was, expressionless: "Changfeng will remember what the imperial concubine said, and Changfeng will never disturb the imperial concubine again, and I hope that the imperial concubine will You and Liang Yue'er can stop bothering me, I just want to spend the rest of the day in peace, I don't want to be involved in these disputes."

He has already fulfilled what he promised Qian Lingyu, and now he is benevolent. Since Su Luo is troubled by his feelings, it is impossible for him to forget, so he can only bury those feelings deeply in his heart.Now he can still have Qianqiu to accompany him more or less, but it won't be long before even Qianqiu will leave him.

After saying that sentence, Gu Changfeng closed the wooden door and disappeared from Su Luo's sight.Su Luo sighed helplessly as he looked at the burning and painful palms from beating too hard.After this slap, the two of them may never return to the past.

At that time, what she heard from Gu Changfeng hurt Liang Yue'er too much. When she came to her senses, everything was irreparable. Now it is not only Gu Changfeng, but even Qianqiu will have a estrangement from her. It seems that during this period During the boring time, she lost two more people to talk to.

Because he was in a bad mood, Su Luo returned to the palace without saying goodbye to Liang Yueer.Gu Li seems to be very busy these days. Since returning to the palace, he has been busy with political affairs, while Qian Yuexin is staying in Fenglai Palace to wait for delivery. Since Lu Yanwu and others left, the harem has become a lot quieter.

Because Su Luo had to take care of the child and couldn't hold the child to see Qian Yuexin, he had no choice but to settle down. Because it was really boring, Su Luo inadvertently remembered the tune that Gu Changfeng played that day, and remembered that Gu Li rewarded him. Among the items given to her was a jade flute made of suet jade.

Because I only listened to it once, the song was not complete. After the song came down, all the maids in the Banqing Palace looked at Su Luo with admiration. Su Luo put down the jade flute and said speechlessly: "I didn't make this song. What's going on with each of these, it's really interesting to see your expressions."

Su Luo never claimed to be her own palace in front of people, and rarely ordered her servants around. Most of the time, she did it by herself, and the people in Wanqing Palace had a good impression of her. "Your Majesty, who made this song? If the slaves say it, it must be a handsome and gentle young man who can make this song."

Regarding the maid's words, Su Luo just laughed it off, it was indeed as she said, it was indeed done by a handsome and gentle man. "The piece that the imperial concubine played just now is very familiar, but I can't remember where I heard it." Just when Su Luo was about to tease the maidservant, Liang Yue'er had already arrived at the gate of Wanqing Palace.

Seeing that it was Liang Yue'er, Su Luo got up and greeted her. "This piece was made by Changfeng. It's normal for you, Princess Ning, to have heard it, but I only listened to it once, and I thought it was nice, so I learned how to play it, which made Princess Ning laugh."

Speaking of which, Liang Yue'er has some reflections, and she vaguely remembers what she heard when she went to Zhulin Xiaozhu to find Gu Changfeng. I don't want Su Luo's musical talent to be so good, and I can remember it after only listening to it once. "The imperial concubine is so versatile, she really has the ability to never forget it, it is really beyond the reach of others, it is too late for Yue'er to admire, how can she laugh at it."

In this world, as long as it is a good word, I will feel very comfortable, no matter it is true or false.But how to say true and false is clear, so there is such a saying that false is true and true is false. "You and I have known each other for a while, and now we can talk straight, so there is no need for such complicated addressing. I will call you Yue'er from now on, and you can call me Ziluo."

This was actually just Su Luo's whim. Gu Li and the others always called her Luo'er Luo'er, which sounded weird, so why not just call her Ziluo, which sounds nice and easy. "In that case, Yue'er will listen to sister Ziluo."

Although Su Luo didn't want to ask more about Gu Changfeng, so as not to let Liang Yue'er think wildly, she still felt that she had to know about the two of them. "Yue'er, what's the matter with Chang Feng these days, I went to persuade him yesterday, he seems to be very prejudiced against you, I wonder if you can tell me."

It's not that Liang Yue'er didn't talk about it, it's just that her daughter's family did such a thing, how dare they talk about it, Gu Changfeng probably feels disgusted even seeing her now.Thinking of this, Liang Yue'er's eyes turned red. Seeing that she was about to cry, Su Luo hurriedly comforted her: "If you don't want to say that I don't ask, then don't cry, or I won't feel good. No, let me apologize to you, okay, and swear that I will never ask about this matter again."

This Liangyue'er managed to stop crying today, but in the end, she brought up the old story of her death. If that matter hurt them a lot, wouldn't she be the one who uncovered the scars and sprinkled salt on other people's wounds? .Seeing that Su Luo was in such a panic, Liang Yue'er knew that she had frightened her, so she quickly stopped her tears. "Ziluo, it's none of your business, it's just that Yue'er remembered some sad things, that's why it happened, sister Ziluo, don't mind."

Even so, tears kept flowing from his eyes.Su Luo didn't understand this matter, and he didn't know how to comfort her. He could only let her lean on his shoulders, and held her back for a while, hoping that her emotions would settle down.

The atmosphere in Wanqing Palace was very sad, but at this time the atmosphere in the Imperial Study Room was very depressing. "How's the investigation going on with that matter? Did you get any clues?" Gu Li was almost buried in the memorials like a hill, writing non-stop.

It is now the beginning of summer, and the snow in Yuguo's original spring began to melt slowly, causing the water level of the river to rise. It is that people are living in dire straits everywhere.

In the past few days, memorials have been sent from various places. Apart from reflecting the local situation, they are asking the imperial court to allocate funds for disaster relief. Yuguo is rich in products, and the annual tax revenue is also very considerable. The treasury is sufficient, but the amount requested in the memorial is really too large , simply unreasonable!
Some of the remaining memorials are about the situation at the border, and one-third of all the memorials are about making Su Luo a noble concubine.Gu Li threw all the memorials to the ground in a rage. These people are now in charge of his family affairs.Is it possible that he has to listen to their opinions even to make a concubine?
Today Gu Li's temper was very irritable, Qing Shang didn't dare to procrastinate, and while cleaning up the memorials on the ground, he listened to Gu Li with the intelligence report collected these days. "The local officials were like a lion. It is true that the floods in Zhengzhou were serious, but the reported silver taels were more than enough."

Before that, when the flood just happened, the imperial court had allocated money for disaster relief once. This time, he actually reported that the money was not enough. The local officials have already corrupted a lot of money, which is really hateful.

Gu Li picked up the memorial on the side and looked at it with a headache. Seeing that Qing Shang didn't speak, he raised his head in doubt and said, "Is it finished?"

Only then did Qingshang come back to his senses, and continued to say with a serious face: "Many officials in the court are complaining about His Majesty, and some even slander His Majesty in private, saying that His Majesty is addicted to wine and sex, and wants to Broken shoes worn by others."

Although Qingshang wanted to hide things more, Gu Li just didn't like others to beat around the bush. Even if he didn't say anything, Gu Li would send someone to investigate. He might as well just say it outright, anyway, he's already used to it .And there are even worse things to say, what he said now is considered light.

Gu Li smiled coldly, these people really don't have any sense of dignity now.If it's just because of Su Luo's matter, it's easy to solve. Among the ministers, there are still some who support Gu Changfeng. He originally wanted to get rid of them, but those are all famous families, and their influence is too wide. Swallow it in one bite, and those people might bite back.He also had to bide his time.

But now that Gu Changfeng is in the capital of Yu Country, although he has been deprived of his military power and the right to participate in politics, there will inevitably be some changes. It seems that he can no longer allow those people to do whatever they want. "How did that go?"

"Your Majesty has already completed everything. The wizards in the Western Regions are indeed capable. Your Majesty has already verified that if His Majesty is free, he will be able to arrive in the capital tomorrow, and His Majesty will be able to meet him at that time."

Liang Yue'er and Su Luo have only known each other for half a month, but they already regard each other as confidantes, and they feel like they hate seeing each other later.Liang Yue'er was not welcomed by Gu Changfeng in Prince Ning's mansion, and she was looking for sadness by staying alone in the vacant room. Gu Changfeng had no wives and concubines, and Gu Changfeng took care of many affairs in the mansion alone, so Liang Yue'er had nothing to do when she was free. He came to Wanqing Palace to talk to Su Luo every day.

Su Luo is very happy about this. She takes care of the children all day long, and it is good to have someone to accompany her.This day, Liang Yueer and Su Luo saw that the weather was fine, so they decided to go for a walk in the Royal Garden.Seeing all kinds of flowers in the imperial garden, Su Luo sighed helplessly.

When watching palace fighting dramas in modern times, she relentlessly complained about those concubines, and went to the imperial garden for a walk when she had nothing to do. At other times, she was doing all kinds of calculations.Now she understands that there is nothing she can do in this harem, and the only thing she can do is visit the imperial garden. Other times, she has to fight to the death with other concubines in order to have the motivation to live, otherwise it is really boring.

"We have been walking for a long time, how about sitting in the pavilion in front and resting for a while before continuing?" Liang Yue'er nodded in agreement, this summer is really hot, and the clothes on her body are heavy, at this moment The two of them were really sweating profusely. Liang Yue'er had been used to it since she was a child, but Su Luo was crying without tears. She inexplicably missed the cool and convenient vest she wore when performing tasks.

After the two sat down, the maids put two large basins filled with ice cubes in the pavilion, and used air-conditioning to dissipate the heat. In addition, there was a large lake opposite the pavilion. , plus the ice-cold air, it feels like an air conditioner.Only then did Su Luo feel a little more comfortable, and this ancient man was quite able to enjoy it.

Su Luo turned around and was about to ask his servants to prepare tea, but when he didn't want to, he saw Gu Li and Qing Shang hurriedly walking towards the palace gate.Su Luo was taken aback, Gu Li was always calm and calm, what made him so anxious, and he didn't have time to come to Qing Palace recently, what happened.

"Zi Luo, what are you looking at? You're so engrossed in watching, do you think you can't do something?" Liang Yue'er stretched out her hand and shook Su Luo in front of her. Just as she sat down, she asked Su Luo what kind of tea he would like to drink , What cakes to eat, so that she can ask the maid to go down to prepare, but Su Luo kept turning her head and looked at the back without replying, but she didn't see anything, so she couldn't help being a little curious.
