Yu Xiaoxiao and Gu Xinglang both stopped and turned to look at Concubine Long. ..
Yu Xiaoxiao whispered to Gu Xinglang: "Is she no longer thinking about it?"
Gu Xinglang's cold eyes met the dark but crazy gaze of Concubine Long. Young Master Gu was really not good at the harem's schemes, so he could only ask the eunuch beside him: "What does she mean by this?"
The eunuch bowed to Gu Xinglang and said, "Sir, this is a matter of the Suzaku royal family."
Gu Xinglang said coldly: "Who is the thief?"
The eunuch looked at Concubine Long with a helpless expression. He had received many benefits from Concubine Long on a daily basis and had done many things for her openly and secretly. But in the current situation, how could he help Concubine Long again?
Concubine Long had her own plans. Seeing that Li Hao's position was almost certain, she did not expect an unexpected disaster to fall from the sky. If she could not get through this, she and her body would be shattered. Now the harem was waiting to see her make a fool of herself. No one in the former court dared to help her at this time. Concubine Long knew that at this time, she had no choice but to fight alone.
Concubine Long didn't believe that the people who led the robbery of the execution ground last night and injured Li Xiaoyuan and Cheng Ming were Yu Linglong and Gu Xinglang. They were two Fengtian people, how could they have such ability? But Concubine Long was going to drag these two Fengtian royal family members into the water. The matter could not be settled lightly, so it would only become a big deal and could not be handled, and finally it would be left unresolved. The more people were involved in this matter, the more she and her children would have to live. Concubine Long looked at Yu Xiaoxiao and Gu Xinglang and thought to herself, don't blame me, you bumped into me.
Li Yi was frightened by Concubine Long's gaze and hid behind Gu Xinglang.
"Your Majesty!" Concubine Long cried to the palace on the upper steps again: "I have been wronged. Fengtian is a wolf with ambitions. Please understand your majesty!"
The eunuch couldn't tell Concubine Long to shut up, so he could only beg Yu Xiaoxiao and Gu Xinglang: "Princess, Prince Consort, please follow me into the palace."
Gu Xinglang and Yu Xiao: "Ignore her."
Yu Xiaoxiao and Gu Xinglang walked up the stairs, thinking about Concubine Long's words, and then she realized that she couldn't figure out what this woman wanted to do. Could it be that she and Gu Xinglang had been exposed? Just based on Cheng Ming's few words?
"I heard that Imperial Master Chengming was also seriously injured," Gu Xinglang asked the eunuch, "Is this true?"
The eunuch recalled Xing Lang's words and said, "Master Chengming returned to the White Horse Temple last night. I don't know the extent of Master's injuries."
The eunuch said he didn't know, but he also told Gu Xinglang one thing, Chengming was not in the palace. Li Xiaoyuan was injured and bedridden. As the imperial teacher, Chengming should accompany the emperor. Now Chengming is staying in the White Horse Temple, which shows that he is indeed seriously injured. Gu Xinglang heard from Xiao Wei that he seriously injured Chengming yesterday, but Gu Xinglang only remembered that he killed a lot of people yesterday. Gu Xiaolang had no clear memory of how many people he killed and how many he injured.
After confirming that Cheng Ming was indeed seriously injured, Gu Xinglang's hand touched the eunuch's hand. Even Yu Xiaoxiao didn't notice that a purse containing several silver bills had passed from Gu Xinglang's hand to the eunuch's hand without a trace.
More than a dozen princes of the Suzaku royal family and important officials of the court were guarding the door of the bedroom. Many of them looked anxious. When they saw the eunuch taking Gu Xinglang and Yu Xiaoxiao to the platform, everyone turned their heads to look over.
She no longer knew how to read people's faces, scrutiny, and distrustful looks, but Yu Xiaoxiao could still feel them, and immediately the princess wanted to roll her eyes at these people.
Gu Xinglang protected Yu Xiaoxiao behind him and whispered, "Don't worry about them, let's go our way."
Li Yi looked at the person in front of the bedroom door and didn't dare to move forward.
Yu Xiaoxiao didn't say anything. She pulled Li Yi's hand and led the frightened "little animal" forward.
"Your Majesty also summoned the Seventh Prince to see you?" Just as Li Yan was about to be pulled into Li Xiaoyuan's bedroom by Yu Xiaoxiao, a prince of the Li family asked.
Li Yan's footsteps stopped.
Yu Xiaoxiao didn't even turn her head, she just grabbed her little cousin and carried him into the house.
The prince's face darkened when he saw Yu Xiaoxiao like this, but he didn't dare to chase her into the bedroom.
There was a floor heater burning in the bedroom, and there was also incense burning, mixed with the smell of wound medicine, which made Li Yan sneeze. The Seventh Emperor also knew that sneezing like this was not good, and it was disrespectful to his father, but the more he didn't want to sneeze, the more he couldn't stop sneezing.
Yu Xiaoxiao was very calm, and casually picked up an apple from the table and gave it to Li Yan. The apple's skin was icy cold, and no one knew how it was preserved, but it looked very fresh. "Eat it," Yu Xiaoxiao said to Li Yan, "Eat something and you won't sneeze."
Li Yi held the apple but didn't dare to eat it, but the smell of the apple made him feel better.
Gu Xinglang was already standing in front of the bed at this time. While waiting for Yu Xiaoxiao to come over and pay his respects, Gu Xinglang stretched his head to look at Li Xiaoyuan who was lying on the bed, and saw that Li Xiaoyuan's entire face was wrapped in gauze, with only his eyes and mouth exposed.
Yu Xiaoxiao walked up to Gu Xinglang and opened her mouth to speak.
Gu Xinglang took Yu Xiaoxiao's hand and shook it, then said, "Princess Fengtian Linglong, Gu Xinglang greets His Majesty."
Seeing the young couple about to kneel down in front of the bed, Li Xiaoyuan said with his eyes closed: "No need to be polite."
Li Yi knelt down, called "Father", and kowtowed to Li Xiaoyuan obediently.
The eunuch said to Li Xiaoyuan, "Your Majesty, it is the Seventh Prince who came here with the princess."
"How did you get here?" Li Xiaoyuan asked with his eyes still closed.
Li Yi looked at Yu Xiaoxiao. He didn't know why he came here. He was pulled here by his cousin.
Gu Xinglang said, "We met His Majesty the Seventh Prince on the way to the palace. Princess Jingcheng and her men were scolding His Majesty. Your Majesty, Princess Jingcheng was born to Concubine Long, so her status is no different from His Majesty the Seventh Prince. Why is Princess Jingcheng so high and mighty?"
Li Xiaoyuan asked: "Li Yan, what did Jingcheng scold you for?"
Gu Xinglang looked at Li Yan and said, "Seventh Prince, you must tell the truth and not deceive the emperor."
Li Yi was frightened by Gu Xinglang's words and told Li Xiaoyuan what Princess Jingcheng said, saying that he was gloating over other people's misfortune and that the concubines in the harem wanted to harm their Long family.
"Long family lineage?" Gu Xinglang said with a smile: "Where did you get that from?"
The eunuch glanced at Gu Xinglang, he didn't expect that he was also an expert at sowing discord and making false accusations.
Li Xiaoyuan couldn't tell if he was angry or not. He was silent for a moment and said, "Is the Dragon Concubine still kneeling outside?"
"Yes," the eunuch responded quickly.
"Let her go," Li Xiaoyuan said.
"Leave" and "roll away" are different words, and the way of handling them is completely different. Originally, the people in the palace just persuaded Concubine Long to leave, but now they directly dragged her away. No matter how Concubine Long struggled and shouted, it was useless. Who told her daughter to be troublesome and hold us back?
