When Yu Xiaoxiao and Gu Xinglang were accompanying General Gu to watch the fish by the garden pond, a secret guard ran out from a side gate of the Imperial Palace, took a detour on purpose, and entered the Hua family's villa.
An hour later, Hua Chunlin drove a carriage himself and brought Princess Fuhui into the palace.
After the imperial aunt and her husband listened to Emperor Xianzong's words in the left side hall of the imperial study, Imperial aunt Fuhui almost fainted.
Xianzong said to Hua Chunlin: "Can you do this?"
Hua Chunlin also became stupid, but he recovered much faster than Princess Fuhui. Soon, Master Hua asked Emperor Xianzong, "Your Majesty, have you made up your mind on this matter?"
"Yes," Xianzong said.
"What about the prince consort?" Young Master Hua asked again.
Xianzong waved his hand at Hua Chunlin and said, "Don't worry about Xinglang. You must complete this matter for me."
Princess Fuhui said: "How can he have any soldiers?" If you don't have any soldiers, can you still call it a rebellion?
Xianzong rushed out the door and said, "Come in."
Luo Yangling from the Imperial Guard walked in from outside the door.
Xianzong said to Hua Chunlin: "General Luo and his troops will follow you tonight."
"My humble servant greets the eldest young master," General Luo saluted Hua Chunlin.
"Brother," said Fuhui, "are you really going to do this?"
Xianzong said: "Do you think I am here to joke with you?"
Xianzong was in a very bad mood at the moment. He felt a sense of tension as if the matter was about to end. What he was giving up was his daughter, his son-in-law, and what was on the gambling table was the fate of his country, Fengtian.
"I obey your order," Hua Chunlin knelt down and accepted the order.
Xianzong looked at his sister and said, "What about you?"
Princess Fuhui stood there for a while. What choice did she have? Her brother issued an imperial decree, and her husband received it. As a woman, what could she do?
"I understand," Princess Fuhui grabbed the side of her clothes with both hands and said to Emperor Xianzong, "I just hope that Your Majesty will not regret it in the future."
Xianzong said: "The dead will not regret."
Princess Fuhui was frightened again by Emperor Xianzong.
Emperor Xianzong looked at Princess Fuhui and smiled bitterly, saying, "Fuhui, if I lose, I will have no way out. At that time, you and your husband will have to find a way out for yourselves."
Somehow, Princess Fuhui's tears flowed out the moment Emperor Xianzong finished speaking.
"Go ahead," Xianzong waved his hand at the three people in front of him and said, "The big show will start tonight, go and get ready."
Princess Fuhui covered her face and walked out of the left side hall. When she looked up again, she saw Yu Xiaoxiao and Gu Xinglang standing in the courtyard.
"Aunt, you are here." Yu Xiaoxiao saw Princess Fuhui and waved to her.
Imperial Aunt Fuhui ran up to the young couple and said in a trembling voice: "Linglong, you" had a lot to say, such as why are you seeking death, do you know how dangerous this is, do you know how to write the word death, etc., but when she saw the real person, Imperial Aunt Fuhui was speechless.
Gu Xinglang bowed to Princess Fuhui and Hua Chunlin and said, "Thank you for your hard work tonight."
Princess Fuhui was still crying, and asked in a hateful voice: "Do we have to do this?"
Yu Xiao: “Ah”
"Shut up," Princess Fuhui asked Gu Xinglang fiercely, "Do you really have to do this?"
Gu Xinglang was a man of few words, so he replied to Empress Fuhui with just one word: "Yes."
Princess Fuhui was suddenly at a loss.
Hua Chunlin sighed silently and patted Gu Xinglang on the shoulder. It was useless to say anything now.
Yu Xiaoxiao wiped her aunt's tears and advised: "Aunt, don't cry. Xiao Gu and I will be fine. Come back and I will treat you and your uncle to a meal. We will meet at the Dawan Restaurant. What do you think?"
"Fuhui," Hua Chunlin called out to Aunt Fuhui in a low voice and shook his head at her. How could he let the princess comfort them at this time?
Princess Fuhui wiped her face and said to Gu Xinglang fiercely: "You have to come back. Do you hear me? Otherwise, I, Yu Fuhui, will not let you go."
Gu Xinglang laughed. As long as a person’s smile is sincere, then it will be bright and sunny.
Princess Fuhui burst into tears and walked quickly forward. What was there to laugh about in this situation?
"Be careful," Hua Chunlin reminded Gu Xinglang.
"Yes," Gu Xinglang nodded.
Young Master Hua went after his wife.
Yu Xiaoxiao stood in the courtyard and asked: "Why is my aunt crying so sadly? What happened to her?"
Gu Xinglang said: "She will be fine soon, shall we go see His Majesty?"
Yu Xiaoxiao looked up at the sky and said, "The weather is so nice, should we waste our time on my dad? Let's go sit somewhere."
Gu Xinglang said: "Where to go?"
"Hmm," Yu Xiaoxiao thought as she stood.
Xianzong, who was standing behind the door, pushed it hard and said to the two men from inside the door, "Get out! Don't stand here and get in my way."
Yu Xiao: "What's wrong with you?"
"Get lost!" Xianzong yelled at his daughter, "What do you mean by wasting your time on me?"
Yu Xiaoxiao blinked and asked, "Dad, do you want to talk to us about life?"
Xianzong was silent for a moment, then roared: "Get out!"
Gu Xinglang quickly pulled Yu Xiaoxiao away. He couldn't let the father and daughter have a fight before he left.
Xianzong watched his daughter and son-in-law leave, and leaned back as if exhausted.
A secret guard appeared in time and supported Xianzong.
Xianzong was breathing rapidly.
The secret guard hurriedly asked: "Your Majesty, do you want to summon the imperial physician?"
Xianzong waved his hand and let the secret guard help him walk into the hall. No one could cure his illness at the moment, and he would not feel at peace unless his daughter and son-in-law returned safely.
Yu Xiaoxiao and Gu Xinglang stood in an empty corner. "Where are we going?" Yu Xiaoxiao asked her little Gu.
Gu Xinglang said: "Big Bowl Restaurant? We can go there in disguise."
Yu Xiao: "I want to find a romantic place."
Gu Xinglang, where is the romantic place?
Yu Xiaoxiao slapped her head for the last time, pulled Gu Xinglang up and said, "Xiao Gu, I'll take you to see Fengjing City."
Gu Xinglang wanted to say, what other scenery in Fengjing City he had not seen? But when he stood on the glazed tiles on the roof of the Imperial Palace Watchtower, Gu Xinglang looked at Fengjing City under his feet and was fascinated. This was the first time he looked down from such a high place, overlooking their capital of Fengtian.
Yu Xiaoxiao pulled Gu Xinglang to sit down, took out a bag of snacks, ate one herself, and stuffed one into Gu Xinglang's mouth, saying, "My father has never been to this place. It must be very high, right?"
This watchtower in the imperial palace has nineteen floors and cannot compare to the skyscrapers in the last days, but in the modern world, it is a towering building.
Gu Xinglang stared at the city below him in a daze, and found that it was a strange city, as if he had never lived in this city. After looking at it for a while, Gu Sanshao felt a sense of sudden realization, thinking that Fengjing City looked like this, one square connected to another, forming a city.
