Chapter 35 Is this just for me or for everyone else?

Mingshuang Palace.

As soon as Gu Qingquan walked in, Helian Yue's reward followed.

It was so fast that she didn't even have time to take off her hairpin.

Xie En, who was receiving the award with the palace maids, could not help but tremble slightly when he saw the black silver lance carried by two eunuchs, even Gu Qingquan.

"Did the emperor tell me why he rewarded me?"

Among all the concubines in the palace who were grateful for the reward, the only one who asked so directly was Concubine Quan.

Fu Tai thought so, but his face showed no sign of it. He just smiled and said, "Your Majesty is concerned about the health of the Emperor, and the Emperor is naturally concerned about you, Your Majesty."

Gu Qingquan raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "Did the emperor reward me alone, or did he reward all the concubines who came to pay their respects just now?"

Fu Tai still smiled, "Your Majesty, this is naturally the only one here."

Gu Qingquan understood immediately after hearing this.

That has nothing to do with the greetings I just paid.

But it's not a festival, why would the emperor bestow so many rewards?

"Other rewards are fine, but as for that black and silver red-barreled spear, didn't Her Majesty say that she had asked the Emperor for it, but the Emperor refused to give it to her?" Qingfeng beside Gu Qingquan asked curiously after Futai left.

Gu Qingquan's eyes naturally fell on the silver gun.

She reached out and grasped the gun. The retractable gun that had taken two eunuchs to lift just now was lifted easily by her.

She also wanted to know why the emperor suddenly gave her this lance.

She was too lazy to attend the family dinner that day so she used illness as an excuse to not go, but unexpectedly the emperor was injured by an assassin.

The emperor gave her a spear at this time. Was it a hint that she should practice martial arts diligently and not let him get hurt due to laziness?

Gu Qingquan thought about it and thought that this was probably the only reason that made sense.

"Starting tomorrow, get up an hour earlier to practice shooting." Gu Qingquan said this to Qingfeng beside him in a cold voice, and then added with some seriousness, "Father sent me to the palace so that the military officers in the court could rely on me, but also so that I could be close to the emperor to protect him. This time I was careless, and this situation must never happen again in the future."

Qingfeng was brought into the palace by Gu Qingquan. He learned martial arts with her since he was a child, and his way of thinking is exactly the same as his master.

Hearing the master say this, I didn't think there was anything wrong with it. Instead, I felt it made a lot of sense, so I replied solemnly, "Yes."

Helian Yue had no idea that the reward he used to "make up for his loss" was interpreted differently by his concubine. After his initial regret, he turned his attention back to investigating the mastermind behind the incident.

According to the list presented by Fu Tai, in addition to the few who came to pay their respects today, there were still a dozen concubines.

If it were before, Helian Yue might have planned to find out each person one by one.

But upon hearing about Concubine Quan's future fate, Helian Yue suddenly lost his patience.

He didn't want to continue to let Helian Tuo go on a limb, and he had to find out the mastermind behind the assassination as soon as possible so that he could focus on dealing with those old guys in the court.

Thinking of this, Helian Yue no longer hesitated and directly called Fu Tai.

"Move back to Linghua Palace tomorrow and ask all the concubines who are eligible to attend the family banquet to come and pay their respects to me."

"Ah?" Fu Tai was obviously stunned when he heard this order.

In fact, even if Helian Yue didn't say it, after Concubine Quan brought people to pay their respects today, other concubines would come one after another to pay their respects to express their concern. If the emperor didn't want to see them, he could just send them back.

But this kind of initiative to summon concubines to pay respects had never happened before.

After all, since His Majesty ascended the throne, he has never liked concubines to come to the front hall, except for taking the initiative to set foot in the harem.

Oh, except for Langguiren.

Lang Guiren was directly appointed by the emperor to live here, which made him more special than any other master in the harem.

Now that the emperor has summoned so many concubines at once, could it be that...

Do you want to pick a few more concubines to live in Linghua Palace and add to your beauty?

Fu Tai was suddenly startled by his own thoughts, and when he looked at his Majesty, his eyes were a little vague.

Helian Yue frowned and looked at his chief eunuch. At that moment, he felt that he was thinking of some strange guess.

Unfortunately, Si Linglong was not here at the moment, so she couldn't hear his heartbeat.

That’s it.

He waved his hands and said, "Go and see how Noble Lady Lang is copying the palace rules. Tomorrow, ask her to move back to Linghua Palace with me."

Upon hearing this, Fu Tai immediately nodded in response and hurried to arrange everything.

That night, the concubines who received the imperial edict from Fu Tai were so excited that they almost couldn't sleep.

This is the first time that the emperor has taken the initiative to summon them to Linghua Palace.

You must dress up beautifully tomorrow!

Outshines all the others!
