Chapter 113 The Queen’s Ceremony (Please subscribe!)

When Gu Dan returned to the courtyard, he heard faint sobbing sounds coming from the courtyard.

I listened carefully for a moment, and in the blink of an eye, a series of pleas for mercy were heard again.

"Woo woo~ I was wrong, mother, Xiaoying won't dare to do it next time"

Reach out and push open the gate.

In the yard, Lin Xiaoyi was holding a willow branch, staring at the little girl who looked 80% like herself when she was young with her almond-shaped eyes wide open, and asked fiercely: "Next time? There will be a next time, right!"

Only at this moment did she finally put away her gentle nature and barely showed some of the majesty of a queen.

Xiaoying pouted her mouth in grievance, with tears welling up in her pretty big eyes. She seemed about to cry, and anyone who saw her pitiful appearance would feel a little sympathy for her.

But her trick didn't work on Lin Xiaoyi.

Haha, these are just what your mother left over!

"What did I tell you when we came out? Huh?! Don't cause trouble for others! Did you ignore my words? You are so brave, you dare to draw a turtle on someone's face at such a young age? Xun Ke is such a good child, and you bully him like this?!"

Lin Xiaoyi swung the willow branch in her hand and kept scolding. Xiaoying's big eyes couldn't help but sway with the willow branch.

The white and tender little hand was stretched out to Lin Xiaoyi's waist, with the palm facing up and staying there. There was already a very obvious red mark in the center of the palm.

At this moment, she wanted to secretly retract her hand, but she was also worried that the willow branch that was making a "swish" sound in the air would fall into her hand again. She looked conflicted and aggrieved.

"Why don't you say anything? Did you ignore my words? You've only been out for a short time, and you've become so wild already. How can you get married in the future? When your mother was your age, she was a well-known lady in a 10-mile radius. She was very lovable, but she had never gotten into trouble like you did! "

Lin Xiaoyi swung the willow branches, completely immune to Xiaoying's external offensive, acting like a strict mother.

Listening to her mother's incessant nagging and scolding, Xiaoying's eyes flickered around secretly.

On the left is Xun Ke, who seems to be hesitant to speak and is stunned, not knowing what to do.

Humph, useless guy!

On the right is Cang, a little guy wearing open-crotch pants who can only pull people's calves.

Can't rely on it at all!

Until he looked up and saw Gu Dan who had come into the yard at some point, his eyes suddenly filled with indescribable joy.

Uncle Gu, I miss you so much!

The little hand stretched in the air was retracted with a "swish". Before Lin Xiaoyi could react, the petite body moved like a rabbit and rushed straight towards Gu Dan.

With a "bang" sound, Xiaoying fell on Gu Dan's body. Xiaoying wrapped her arms around Gu Dan's thighs, and her whole body almost fell on him. She said pitifully, almost like complaining, "Uncle Gu, my mother hit me!!"

Gu Dan: “.”

Lin Xiaoyi turned around and was about to scold when she saw Gu Dan and paused. She forced an awkward but polite smile, but her face turned red involuntarily.

After growing up, who doesn’t have some dark history that they are embarrassed to talk about?

Being seen scolding a child was not a big deal, but the problem was that she had just praised herself while scolding the child. In the blink of an eye, she found an old acquaintance standing behind her, and she was more or less too embarrassed to face people.

"cough."

Gu Dan coughed lightly, ruffled Xiaoying's hair, and said, "The child is already this old, it's better not to use this method of education."

He spoke very tactfully, after all, no one knew what had happened.

“This girl drew a turtle on Xun Ke’s face when he was standing still! She also put Cang on Xun Ke’s neck.” Lin Xiaoyi got stuck in the middle of her sentence and was too embarrassed to say it out loud.

However, when Gu Dan saw Xun Ke's face had turned dark again, it was not difficult for him to guess what had happened.

Trying hard to smooth out the slight curve that rose up at the corner of his mouth, Gu Dan said righteously: "That's good! It's a good opportunity to test his determination. The martial arts are so difficult. If he can't even handle such a small matter, how can he achieve great things?"

"Uncle Gu is right!"

Xiaoying, who was lying on Gu Dan, nodded repeatedly and rubbed the tears she had squeezed out with great difficulty on Gu Dan's green robe. Who told you to mess up my hair!

After rubbing, he stretched out a hand, raised it in front of Gu Dan's eyes, shook it, and said weakly, pitifully and helplessly: "Uncle Gu, look at me being beaten by my mother!"

"oh?"

Gu Dan glanced at it, stretched out a finger and gently stroked the small red mark. A nearly imperceptible green light flashed by, and then he asked, "Where did it hit?"

“Here, here!”

Xiaoying stood up and stretched out her other hand to point at the place on her right hand where she was hit, but she found that the obvious red mark had disappeared, and the slight numbness and tingling in her hand had also disappeared! "Huh? What's going on?!"

The girl stretched out her right hand in front of her eyes, looked left and right, and even touched it, her eyes full of surprise and disbelief.

It really doesn't hurt at all! Could it be that I am actually not afraid of willow branches? !

Xiaoying is really amazing! "The child is already this big, let's just forget about it this time."

Looking at Xiaoying who was full of confusion and surprise, Gu Dan also said something good for her.

"Okay, since Brother Gu has spoken."

Lin Xiaoyi was just about to give her a way out when she suddenly heard a particularly arrogant shout.

"Humph, Xiaoying isn't afraid of being hit by willow branches! Come on, I'm not wrong!"

Xiaoying stretched out her slender white neck, looking eager to try and provocative. Where was the aggrieved look from before? "."

“.”

They looked at each other in silence.

Even Gu Dan couldn't help but secretly take a deep breath. This woman was so terrifying! How could his courtyard accommodate such a young phoenix? You are amazing!

"Okay! If you don't punish me for three days, I'll tear you apart! It's no use shouting at anyone today, I will definitely teach you a lesson!" Lin Xiaoyi's pretty face darkened immediately, and she walked over with a willow branch in her hand.

Xiaoying was not afraid at all, and even stretched out her right hand, saying unyieldingly: "Go ahead and hit me, I'm not afraid even if you hit me!"

There was only a swish sound.

The expression on Xiaoying's face froze completely.

"ah!"

She cried out in pain, and this time her tears really fell uncontrollably.

It really hurts!!! Gu Dan couldn't help but cover his eyes, he really couldn't bear to watch.

Not long after, the figure crashed into his legs again like a mad bull.

Xiaoying is not stupid. She has already understood that it is not because she has any extraordinary abilities, but because Uncle Gu is really awesome!

"Uncle Gu, I was wrong! Xiaoying won't dare to do it again! Please help Xiaoying!"

The little girl cried with tears and snot, and this time her feelings were particularly sincere.

".Don't make your mother angry."

A ray of green light fell into her palm, and Gu Dan also sighed.

A martial arts master with a five-hundred-year-old internal breath technique should have been saving the world, but how could he be reduced to coaxing a little girl? It's a bit of a waste of talent! Lin Xiaoyi walked over slowly, still with a little anger on her face, and said in a deep voice: "This girl can't be spoiled!"

"Well, the child is ignorant, let her go this time."

This matter was more or less related to him. Without his help in treating the girl, the little girl would not have dared to fantasize that she was "immune" to the attack of the willow branches. Naturally, Gu Dan had to say a few good words about her.

With this thought in mind, Gu Dan simply changed the subject and said, "By the way, why are you here? Aren't you busy with things in the harem?"

Although Emperor Zong Ming is dead, his concubines are still here!

Those who should be buried alive were buried alive, and those who should move aside moved aside. Naturally, all of this required the approval and grasp of the context of Queen Lin Xiaoyi, which was very busy.

"Although summer is about to pass, it has been too hot in recent days, so I sent you some ice cubes and frozen juice." Sure enough, Lin Xiaoyi's attention was immediately attracted.

"Then I'll trouble you."

Gu Dan nodded.

He is a martial arts master, so naturally he is immune to cold and heat.

Not to mention the scorching summer heat, he was not afraid of even real hot water. However, he was not the only one in the yard, so he had to accept the kindness.

"By the way, I also prepared some clothes for Cang."

As she spoke, Lin Xiaoyi opened the package on the stone table, revealing the clothes inside, and took out one to show Gu Dan.

The material of the clothes is of course excellent fabric, probably only slightly inferior to the most respected Liuyun Zhuiyue silk used exclusively by the royal family. It's just that the stitching on it seems a bit out of place compared with the fabric.

It can't be said to be neat, it can only be said to be crooked, like an earthworm trying to twist.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Noticing Gu Dan's gaze, Lin Xiaoyi blushed and said, "I'm not very good at these. The few pieces I made are not very good. But Cang is still young and growing fast, so it's okay for him to wear them."

She spoke in a low voice.

Naturally, she learned needlework when she was a girl, but after she married into Prince Yu's mansion, it was no longer her turn to do such work.

Even if you do it well, Prince Yu won't even look at it, so why bother?

Therefore, the skills learned in the past inevitably become unfamiliar, and when they are needed again, they are always not as suitable as I want, and I can't help feeling embarrassed when I use them.

"It's not easy, is it?"

Gu Dan smiled, of course not disgusted, just advised: "Why bother? There are also some for sale outside, you are also very busy, how can the little guy be short of food and clothing when he stays with me?"

"How can we keep buying clothes to wear? There must be someone to make clothes for us! I also made one for Xun Ke, but I don't know if it will fit. If I make it a little bigger, even if it doesn't fit, I can still wear it in winter."

Lin Xiaoyi took out another piece of clothing that was obviously much larger and said a little embarrassedly.

Xun Ke, who was watching the show on the side, widened his eyes and said blankly: "I have it too?"

"Why don't you come and pick it up? Thank you, Sister Lin." Gu Dan shouted.

Lin Xiaoyi's face suddenly blossomed into a very bright smile.

A simple “Thank you, Sister Lin” makes people feel the long-lost warmth.

It seems like I have returned to the time when I was in the Imperial Hospital. That old friend is still here after all.

The nightmarish experience had already taken away her parents and childhood friends, so naturally she didn't want to lose them again.

"Cang, come here too."

He waved his hand and called Cang to his side. Gu Dan squatted down and said to him, "Come, thank Aunt Lin."

She stared at him blankly, not saying a word.

Instead, Lin Xiaoyi said, "Auntie, that's so unpleasant! How about asking Cang to recognize me as his godmother? It just so happens that I don't have a son either!"

She also squatted down like Gu Dan, stretched out her still fair and tender little hands, pinched her chubby little face, and said, "Come on, call mother and let her hear it!"

"Mother?"

Cang looked at her and opened his arms for a hug.

“Hey!”

Lin Xiaoyi responded, her face was crescent-shaped and her dimples were intoxicating.

Gu Dan watched the scene quietly.

Time not only takes away the past, but also occasionally gives some back.

When she walked out of the Gu family's courtyard, Lin Xiaoyi still had an unstoppable cheerful and bright smile on her face.

It seems like a burden has been filled, making people feel particularly fulfilled.

It is the joy that comes from the bottom of one's heart after picking up a treasure from one's childhood.

Although fifteen years have passed and her children are old enough to climb onto the roof of the house, she feels more and more the preciousness of past memories when living in the luxurious Prince Yu's Mansion.

When power and money reach a certain level, true feelings seem extremely fragile and even a luxury.

It is so fragile that people dare not test or think about it carefully; it is so extravagant that even if you spend a fortune, you still cannot relieve the loneliness.

Only the emotions before success can still make people yearn and desire even after a long time.

What I long for is not only the old times, but also the young, peaceful and happy mentality.

I want to buy sweet osmanthus flowers and carry them with me, just as a young man travels! Autumn is coming soon, and when it arrives, the fragrance of sweet osmanthus flowers will float all over the streets and fall into thousands of households.

The days of childhood have passed, but there are always people who are in their childhood.

By then, the rich families could brew osmanthus wine, and the poorer families could buy some osmanthus cakes. Even the poor families who had nowhere to live could pick some osmanthus flowers, which would taste sweet! Before I knew it, I had arrived at the gate of the palace.

There are guards coming to greet you.

Only at this moment did Lin Xiaoyi finally come to her senses.

The smile on his face gradually faded.

The youthful, beautiful and energetic little girl who belonged to the former Imperial Hospital is gradually fading away.

The brand new Queen Dayue is back, with her smile restrained and her face full of majesty, just short of a few words "No Trespassing" written on it.

His footsteps passed by one palace after another.

Lin Xiaoyi actually went to the cold palace first.

Immediately, a eunuch ran over with small steps and whispered, "Report to Queen Lin, Concubine Qi is no longer alive."

"Yeah?"

Lin Xiaoyi's expression was indifferent and cold, with the demeanor of a queen.

"Yes."

The eunuch lowered his head and dared not look at her.

I'm afraid no one knows that the biological mother of the third prince was turned into a human pig in the cold palace and then thrown into a toilet, and someone still "treated" her.

The horror and terror in the incident was so great that even a eunuch like him could hardly bear it!

"I see."

Lin Xiaoyi nodded and turned back.

Soon, in a hall.

The new emperor was sitting on the dragon throne, holding the memorials from the ministers with a frown on his face.

Lin Xiaoyi forced a smile on her face, walked in, and whispered, "Husband, are you still worried about state affairs?"
