Chapter 157 The Empress Is Jealous, The Lady Has A Secret
【Luck: unknown】
【Fate: Unknowable】
Gu Lan:? ? ?
The clear light in the eyes was fleeting, but was not caught by the empress.
Similarly, a ray of golden qi has just risen, but it has not fallen into Gu Lan's perspective.
now!
Gu Lan was extremely puzzled!
Could it be that the qi-watching technique has been useless for too long, and something went wrong?
Gu Lan hurried into the room, looking at his handsome face in the bronze mirror, his eyes became clear again!
【Air Luck: Purple】
[Fate: heaven-defying to change fate, reaping the daughter of destiny as a servant, mastering the mysterious bronze coffin, destroying Heavenly Devil, becoming emperor...]
Isn't that okay?
After a moment of astonishment, Gu Lan sank into thought, his eyes in the bronze mirror gradually lost focus.
He paused, his throat rolled down, and his face showed a look of shock!
"There are secrets on the lady... I can't even pry into it, so I can block the secret!?"
Gu Lan realized the seriousness of the matter and looked surprised!
I have been in the Realm of the late stage of Emperor Realm, tearing the space is just a snap of my fingers, if I am not restricted by Heavenly Dao's luck, I can become a native of the motherland on this continent!
The lady is a mortal...but I can't see through her, how is this possible? !
Just wanted to make sure.
The magic talisman is still there, and the condition of the lady is normal, so Gu Lan is relieved... But, I didn't want to, but I discovered the secret of the lady!
This amazed him!
after all!
Who is usually idle and has nothing to do, and would use the means of dealing with the enemy to treat a woman who knows everything?
This wave is really unexpected!
at this time.
Mu Yuyan came slowly from behind. Seeing Gu Lan's strange behavior, she thought she had encountered something in Xuan Tiansi, and asked with concern: "Sir, did the interrogation go well?"
It doesn't matter if it doesn't go well.
Anyway, as long as torture is used, it will take a little more time, and the prisoner's mouth can always be pried open. She never thought that she would get the news so quickly.
After all, it was just for Gu Lan to claim the credit!
Listen to the gentle voice of the lady.
Gu Lan's heart fluttered, he opened his mouth, but said: "No...things are going well, but I feel sorry for those girls, such an unfortunate experience."
Mu Yuyan was silent when she heard the words, and stopped talking.
"This matter is indeed a matter of the imperial court... However, I believe that Her Majesty the Empress, after learning about the forces behind this matter, will definitely uproot them, and the funeral of those girls will be properly handled. ..”
In front of Wanmin, Mu Yuyan could bow her head and confess her guilt.
You can even issue an imperial edict!
But here, Gu Lan can only try not to mention it as much as possible, and talk more about remedial measures... He already has a bad impression of himself, so he can't have any more bad feelings!
Mu Yuyan raised her beautiful eyes slightly, and pinched her sleeves nervously with her jade hands.
At this moment, Liu Yexi walked out of the house from the gate of the mansion, with a look of joy on her face, just about to report Gu Lan's actions to the Empress, but she heard this sentence!
He looked startled.
It wasn't the Empress's fault in the first place, but she had to try her best to explain it to herself as tactfully as possible... She couldn't help but feel wronged and sad for Mu Yuyan!
unexpectedly!
Gu Lan smiled gently, and said:
"Furthermore? Ma'am, tell me what you heard. Those girls didn't die. After today's interrogation and their whereabouts, they were all rescued."
He still planned to put aside the matter of his wife's secret first.
after all.
There is no doubt that the lady is sincere about own, and she is pregnant with own cubs, both physically and mentally... But if she asks rashly, if it is something unspeakable about her life experience, it will inevitably cause her harm.
"Let's observe again, what's the secret of the lady... I can't find out before the stone formation is repaired, so I will ask the old Taoist Yunlong before going to Mobei..."
Gu Lan took a deep breath and sank the matter into his heart.
And opposite!
When Mu Yuyan heard this, her beautiful eyes were shocked: "Are they saved?! All... saved? When did this happen?!"
"Really! Ma'am, it's been rumored outside, our young master Gu Lan's lord saved more than 20 girls, it's an immeasurable merit!"
Liu Yexi smiled at this time, deliberately biting the word "adult", reminding him so.
After hearing this, Gu Lan was taken aback!
"Fuck? Who reported my name?!"
"I don't know. It's spreading outside anyway, but it's just that it hasn't reached our Dongzhi Street yet. Sooner or later..."
Liu Yexi looked innocent.
Gu Lan: "..."
Well, you Wei Zhi with thick eyebrows and big eyes, I saved you once back then, and you just repaid me like this?
Gan!
But Gu Lan knew that Wei Zhi also had good intentions, so he didn't say anything, and could only silently accept this irreparable matter.
After hearing Xiaoxi's affirmation, Mu Yuyan couldn't hide the joy in her eyes, and her delicate body trembled with excitement!
She has beautiful eyes like water, staring at Gu Lan's face.
If it wasn't for the fear of being exposed, I really wanted to go up and take a bite. This man with superb means always brings him great surprises...
In the queen's expectation.
Even if news came out of the interrogation that so many young girls had already been killed, her guilt would still have to be issued!
A stain on Jiaqing will definitely be left in the history books.
But now, the situation is very different!
People are still alive and reunited with their families, so as long as they try their best to make up for them for the rest of their lives, the extremely hostile method of guilt can be avoided!
Naturally, there will be no decline in the national fortune!
This is not rewarding my husband, this is my husband saving my life...Mu Yuyan sighed inwardly, owed Gu Lan more and more, and he didn't know how to pay it back.
give birth to one? two? Or three or five? ?
I talked about this matter with Concubine Xiao before, before the Empress came out of the palace, she laughed and reprimanded her a few times, and then it was revealed.
She never thought that there would be a day when she would really think about this issue!
Mu Yuyan was thinking wildly, her pretty face was slightly hot, and her earlobes were crystal clear and pink.
at this time.
Lao Yang walked into the house with the cooked dishes on his head, and he was as cheerful as usual: "Madam and son are still talking about things, let's eat first, you will have the strength to do things when you are full."
work......
When this word fell into Mu Yuyan's ears, it became a little abnormal!
No no no!
You have to hurry up and divert your attention!
Mu Yuyan shook her head, rested her rosy cheeks lightly with her jade hands, and asked softly, "Sister-in-law has done such a beautiful job, so he wants to go to the palace to report on his work?"
"Well, go tomorrow morning."
Gu Lan glanced at her and said thoughtfully.
The corners of Mu Yuyan's lips curled up imperceptibly: "Then, Your Majesty the Empress must reward my husband well, otherwise how can I be worthy of such outstanding achievements?"
Ok! Make a foreshadowing first, lest tomorrow's reward is too heavy, and he will become suspicious!
Mu Yuyan is a smart group!
"Rewards don't matter, our family doesn't lack anything, as long as it's over soon and we can go home to accompany our wife."
Gu Lan smiled slightly.
"Having said that."
Mu Yuyan shook her head, and retorted: "But if you don't give a big reward, I'm afraid it will attract resentment from the people, especially the families of these rescued and reunited girls."
"Then what kind of reward is considered valuable?"
"Fenghou?"
Liu Yexi tentatively pretended not to understand.
Mu Yuyan glanced at her appreciatively.
"Fenghou? Why don't you say that if the empress wants to marry me, it will be a reward?" Gu Lan thought it was absurd, and shook his head jokingly.
"That can't be done!" Mu Yuyan said subconsciously, her pretty face froze after she finished speaking.
A strange and sour feeling rose from the bottom of my heart for no reason!
After she came back to her senses, she was even more confused... What's going on, I'm jealous of myself? !
what happened!
Could it be that the husband said it himself?
Liu Yexi looked at the empress with admiration on her face, and said in her heart that your majesty is good at acting, so you are so involved in the play that you don't know who you are, right?
Hearing her answer, Gu Lan lightly smiled and touched his head: "You're just kidding, I've never even seen a female emperor. How can someone who is a ninety-five-year-old respect the common people?"
heard the words.
Mu Yuyan felt that she seemed stupid just now, and it was hard for him to have the consciousness of being "brought into the harem", so why did he stop eating vinegar by himself!
To be favored by the empress is not the goal of her own "evil" plan!
Mu Yuyan gave Gu Lan a piece of lotus root with complicated eyes, pursed her lips and said hesitantly: "Actually, if Your Majesty can really fall in love with your husband...it's not impossible to be a concubine."
As soon as this word comes out!
Slap! !
All four were shocked!
Old Yang's chopsticks fell directly to the ground, and he quickly bent down to pick them up, pretending he didn't hear anything!
Xiao Qi and Zhong Ren were buried in their food, staying out of the matter as well.
After Liu Yexi froze for a moment, she winked at the empress vigorously.
And Gu Lan!
He looked at the lady's shy and flushed pretty face in shock for a moment, and then, a look of doubt flashed in his eyes...
Mu Yuyan saw the look in the maid's eyes, and knew that she had said the wrong thing again in a flash of madness!
Different from the calmness of the past, tonight I have said two wrong sentences one after another!
danger! !
Sure enough, she will lose her wits in front of the one she loves, and the words in the storybook are correct... Mu Yuyan was nervous, but she had never seen such a big storm in her generation of empresses, so she immediately quibbled:
"The concubine feels that the empress is a wise monarch... If the husband can enter the palace, how can he delay the future of the husband because of the concubine?"
Gu Lan looked at her for a long while, then smiled softly and said: "Young lady, don't worry too much. You and I are husband and wife. We wish to be lovebirds in the sky and twigs in the ground. No one will interfere!"
The lady's secret about Dajing Miyagi... Gu Lan nodded slightly, and had already reached a preliminary conclusion!
Could it be related to the aunt in the palace?
Well, stay a little longer in the imperial city tomorrow to see if I can find the answer...
Hearing Gu Lan's words, Mu Yuyan's throbbing heartbeat finally fell silent in her full chest.
Scared to death!
She is not ready yet, and now she is going to face her husband as an empress!
No way!
In the future, I can't be so ignorant and reserved. Even if, even if I want to help my husband "attack" the empress, I have to be more tactful!
Mu Yuyan's delicate and pretty face flushed, and she ate with elegant and reserved sips.
…
That night!
General Wuwei's Mansion!
Wu Fan, who has been silent for a long time, has recently paid attention to the movement of the capital, because the servants who followed the Sun's residence back then have gained a lot in today's report!
"Sun Shilang turned out to be a traitor? Heh, anyone can be accused of a traitor these days! He ransacks his family and exterminates his family at every turn, and the tyrant will die sooner or later!"
Wu Fan cursed guiltily.
The revenge of bereavement, although not killed by the empress, was due to Dayu's plan to revenge Dajing!
He hates both sides now!
The confidant next to him quickly echoed him: "Yes, General, Your Majesty has no virtue, and there are frequent evils. We have to find a way to clean up the king's side!"
treacherous? Wu Fan glanced at him, feeling like he was talking about himself.
"Ahem, Qing Jun's side also depends on strength, our strength is too weak now, tell me about Sun Shilang's news!"
"Yes!" The confidant told all the things he inquired at the gate of Xuan Tiansi.
After Wu Fan finished listening, his eyes lit up!
A look of shock and joy!
"You said that Sun Shilang's cultivation is the power of harvesting and tonic, which is full of the Cultivation Base of the Emperor Realm? Or is it from Mobei?!"
"Yeah, what's the matter, General?"
The confidant looked at a loss.
"Haha! God is going to kill this Empress, God is going to kill her!" Wu Fan laughed happily, and quickly turned around and took out a map from the bookstore, and spread it out on the table!
"In the land of Mobei, there are many demons and evils!"
"According to the records of ancient history, there used to be a huge sect called Huanxi Xiangong, but after a long time, it has been gradually forgotten by people!"
"Ah! So, Sun Shilang is actually a member of this big sect!" The confidant was suddenly stunned.
Wu Fan hooked the corner of his mouth: "I think it's more than that! People from the Cultivation Base of the Imperial Realm can definitely be regarded as the backbone of this continent!"
"And if he is dead, the powerful forces behind him will never let it go. Even if it's just to get Face back, they will come to ask the empress for punishment!"
The confidant understood, and said with a sly smile: "But if the empress wants to convince the public, she must not bow her head to this kind of evil cultivator, and the two parties will definitely have conflicts!"
"Yes!!"
Wu Fan's eyes flashed brightly, and his criss-crossed face was full of pride: "Huanxi Immortal Palace has stood for many years, and its heritage is no worse than that of the Four Great Dynasties! At that time, we only need to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, and maybe we can hug this A thigh!"
Dayu withered, he had long wanted to find a new backer.
"The general is wise!"
The confidant arched his cupped hands, and while flattering, he remembered something, and then said: "By the way, General, I also inquired about a young scholar today. It seems to be related to the Empress."
"Scholar?"
Wu Fan's eyes showed contempt: "You are a scholar who is useless, you don't need to pay attention to this kind of people..."
"But he entered the palace and became an imperial envoy!"
"Uh, tell me!"
Wu Fan frowned, listening to his confidant finish talking about Gu Lan in a low voice.
"It's hard to do without an address... But it seems that it's the first time that the Empress favors a young man so much!"
Wu Fan thought of the rumors in the market some time ago.
The empress once broke into Tianshan because of a man... Could it be true?
"Pay more attention to the news of this scholar, maybe it will be of great use in the future!" Wu Fan squinted his eyes, full of murderous aura!
Since embarrassment can not be embarrassing.
Then it's okay to embarrass the people she might care about, right?
snort! If something happened one day, maybe he could take this white-faced scholar hostage and use it as a bargaining chip to escape!
…
The next day, early morning!
Gu Lan didn't wear that exaggerated attire anymore, but walked into the Dajing Imperial City again in plain Tsing Yi as usual.
At the gate of the palace, I met an acquaintance.
"Eunuch Mao?"
Gu Lan said hello with a puzzled expression: "Why are you here, knowing that I will come today?"
"No, no! Our family happened to come out after dinner, and we ran into the young master!" Eunuch Mao laughed and said, "Why don't you still guide the young master as an old slave?"
"OK!"
Gu Lan nodded.
Eunuch Mao was delighted, and he led Gu Lan to the palace.
The last time I spoke for Gu Lan, the empress rewarded him with a hundred taels of gold and a pair of cloud boots, which are rare for eunuchs. This is a great honor!
Eunuch Mao knows that Gu Lan is a noble person... Well, at least he is also a noble person, maybe he has the qualifications for success, so of course he should be careful!
The two of them still passed through the Zhengyang Gate first, and then entered the empress's colorful harem.
"Hey, why didn't you see Commander Luo today?"
Gu Lan saw that the leader of the forbidden army had changed, and he nodded to him from a distance, and he was puzzled.
Eunuch Mao smiled: "It's still because of your son!"
Gu Lan froze for a moment: "Because of me?"
"Of course! That day he spoke rudely to the young master. When His Majesty found out, he punished him fifty court sticks and drove him out of the palace. At least he couldn't get out of bed for half a year!"
Eunuch Mao snorted coldly, feeling that he had missed a sentence, he quickly added with a smile: "By the way, my lord, that imperial rod...is exactly the punishment of our prison!"
