Gu Yinwei took out the rune and stuck it on the white crane. Flames ignited above the white crane's head, and fifteen large ships followed the white crane and headed towards Dongzhou.
Sailors are not afraid of wind and waves, but they are afraid of calm seas, when the sea and the sky are one color and there is no boundary between the sea and the sky, making it difficult to distinguish them.
"What are you looking at, my dear?"
"Look at the sky, look at the sea, and when it gets dark you can look at the stars and the moon."
"Ever since I can remember, I have been gazing up at the bright moon and stars alone."
"Was the Emperor's childhood lonely?"
"Childhood? I was born as the crown prince. A crown prince has no childhood, only responsibilities."
The sea breeze was salty, but it couldn't blow away the sadness between Zhu Dunyi's brows.
"Your Majesty, why are the people of Dongzhou detaining the Third Prince?"
"My third brother stole the Buddha's bones, so naturally the people of Dongzhou will not let him go."
"So the Third Prince is a thief. Thieves deserve to be hung up and beaten when they are caught."
Zhu Dunyi's eyes lit up. Gu Gengyi's train of thought actually coincided with his. He couldn't help but want to get closer to her.
Gu Yinwei hugged his arm and sat next to him. The other person came over and sucked it.
Wei Junzhai also needs luck, but Gu Yinwei is like a vixen, pestering the emperor all day long, leaving him no chance to take advantage of.
"Your Majesty, let's go play chess."
Gu Yinwei pretended to be disappointed and said, "Your Majesty, please go."
"I'm not going anywhere. I'm just staying with my beloved concubine."
Wei Junzhai's face was as black as charcoal, and Gu Gengyi thought you were cruel.
"Master, go play with Fugui. I want to hear Gu Gengyi's heartfelt words."
Wei Junzhai silently pushed it open, and Fugui couldn't stop nagging, "Master, the emperor has a beautiful woman by his side, how can he care about you?"
Wei Junzhai folded his arms and looked at Zhu and Gu who were in love in the distance, and the fire in his heart rose.
You don't give him the chance to absorb luck, and you isolate him. When he arrives in Dongzhou, let's see how you fight against the strange people in Dongzhou.
I want to go back to Kyoto. I miss the soft and sweet tabby cat. I don’t know if the tabby cat is hungry or has anything to eat.
"Meow."
The tabby cat jumped from the table onto the antique shelf. Chuchu coaxed it with kind words, "Little tabby cat, come down quickly. Chuchu will give you a bowl of milk."
Almond brought a bowl of fresh milk and invited the tabby cat to drink.
Gu Yinwei was not used to it. She moved as fast as lightning. She grabbed the kitten's neck and lifted it off the shelf. Then she found a backpack, turned it upside down and covered the kitten. The tabby cat became quiet instantly.
"Meow, meow."
"If you scream again, I will eat you in one bite." After saying that, he opened his mouth to scare the tabby cat.
Gu Yinwei walked forward, and a rose petal fell behind her. Chuchu quickly picked up the petal and hid it in her sleeve. Bian Tao scratched her head, "Chuchu, do you feel that the master is a little different?"
"The master loves to sleep more than before, and he can't use chopsticks."
"The master was eating noodles yesterday and almost stood on the table to eat."
Chuchu knew she couldn't hide it anymore so she had to tell the truth, "Sister Bian Tao, the master and the emperor have left the palace. She is a fake person."
"dummy……"
Bian Tao stopped talking mid-sentence, shutting the door tightly and lowering her voice, "It is a serious crime for a concubine to leave the palace without permission. The master has left the palace, and she... who is she?"
"I don't know who she is either." Chu Chu was also a little scared of this dummy.
The rose demon covered her head. She had no intelligence and only obeyed Gu Yinwei's orders.
"Is Gu Gengyi here? My queen is here to visit Gu Gengyi."
Wen Qin was carrying a basket of flowers, with a bunch of red plum blossoms in full bloom.
Chuchu came out to open the door and led Concubine Yi and her servants to the tea room. "Your Highness, please wait a moment. Gu Geng will be here soon."
"Chu Chu, is Gu Gengyi sick?"
"In reply to Concubine Yi, my queen has had a sudden headache recently and cannot stand the cold wind."
"I see. The last time I saw her, I asked her to go enjoy the flowers with me, but she covered her head and ran away. I've been busy lately and haven't had time to come and see her."
As the two were talking, Bian Tao came out with a dummy to pay his respects.
"Gu Gengyi, are you feeling better?"
The dummy pointed to his throat, spread his hands, and explained, "Empress Yi, ever since we dug up the gold from Chunxi Palace last time, my queen has been suffering from all kinds of difficult and complicated illnesses. I heard from the elders in the palace that the queen revealed the secrets and that the heavens are punishing her."
"Gu Gengyi, I never thought you would secretly commit so many crimes for me. It seems that since you helped me dig out the gold bricks, I will go to the Queen Mother and the Empress to explain."
"Have a good rest. I'll come to see you another day."
Concubine Yi left a basket of red plums, and Bian Tao took a vase, filled it half with water, took out the branches and began to trim them. The white glazed porcelain vase matched the red plums, and the red and white complemented each other, which was quite charming.
The dummy stared at the red plum blossoms on the windowsill. She didn't need to eat or drink water. She was stupid and silly, like a puppet.
Fortunately, the two palace maids around him helped to cover up, and Concubine Yi and Concubine Xian secretly assisted, so no flaws were revealed.
The queen wished that Gu Yinwei would remain stupid for the rest of her life. The more incompetent the concubines were, the more satisfied she would be.
The emperor went on a secret visit, and all the concubines in the harem were obedient to him. No one stood out, and the queen was the only one in power.
The days went by more and more smoothly. The queen's heart became more relaxed, her waist became stronger, and even her face became broader.
The Queen Mother was completely focused on the Third Prince, but he was slow to return to Kyoto, and she was worried and couldn't calm down.
At the gate of Cining Palace.
Aunt Fang took a letter from the eunuch and went to see the Queen Mother with it. The Queen Mother held the charcoal stove in her hands and said in an old voice, "Read it."
The envelope was opened, and the handwriting on the letter paper was vigorous and powerful. Aunt Fang read in a low voice: "Your Majesty and his party have bypassed Lansha Island and are expected to land in Dongzhou in five days."
