Bai Su reached out and wiped the hilt of his sword. His movements were slow and elegant as if he had completed some sort of ritual. Then, he tilted his head and looked at Shen Zhongbai with a smile. He said word by word, "You have no other choice. The entire imperial palace is not a restriction to me at all. For the sake of your throne and your country, you should take me to see that old woman. I just have some things to confirm."
The fact that he was able to bring so many people here so quickly showed that he had long been prepared for this. Although the Empress did not want to admit it, the current situation was clear— Bai Su came here to confirm something, and he would save her in passing. In the Empress' heart, Bai Su was not a safe person.
Shen Zhongbai clenched his fists, his eyes red. Just as Bai Su had said, he had no other choice.
The lights lit up at the gates of Yongning Palace. Shen Zhongbai led the way, and everyone walked s
"To be honest, when I first saw you, I wanted to marry you. Do you know why?" Bai Su turned his head. His eyes narrowed as if he was smiling. He looked charming."Why?" The Empress asked casually. She was already immune to this man's smile. She didn't know when she first met this man, but this man acted as if he had known her for decades."Because you look exactly the same as Bai Qirong," Bai Su said.Bai Qirong, the woman whose name had been mentioned countless times tonight and who carried so many stories, who was she?Now, the Empress was already not young. Although she was still extremely gorgeous and beautiful, she was no longer at the age when she would be evaluated by her appearance.She carefully deduced, and a very melodramatic story appeared in her mind. She urgently needed to ask Bai Su for confirmation."Who exactly is Bai Qirong?" the Empress asked.Bai Su sighed softly. It
The Empress' nose twitched, and tears welled up in her eyes. She nodded and went down the mountain.News that Empress Dowager died of a disease in the palace spread widely. Pieces of white cloth had already been hung on the capital's main road, dyeing the entire capital white.The three of them walked on a remote path, avoiding the soldiers and citizens. Finally, they went up to Xiaoyao Mountain in the afternoon.There was a white cloth in front of the mountain gate. As the Ninth Prince, he naturally had to pay tribute to Empress Dowager's death.Pushing open the door, they had yet to enter when they saw Jin Ye rush out and pull the Empress to the side. His face was as pale as a sheet."Master has gone to the imperial palace. The entire Gu Family was also captured and brought to the imperial palace. Miss, what did you do?" Jin Ye fiercely pinched the Empress' arm, through the thick clothes on her body, as if wan
Ye's entire body was trembling. She clearly understood what the Empress meant.Her hands were slowly clenching into fists. Now, Gu Family was already like an old tree in autumn, not having much strength to sway in the wind. It could not even protect itself, as if walking on thin ice.If the Empress insisted, Shen Zhongbai would definitely destroy Gu Family in one fell swoop.Who would have thought that the once all-powerful Gu Family was just an empty shell?"What do you mean by this?" Prime Minister Gu seemed to have heard the hidden meaning in her words.The Empress did not care about Prime Minister Gu's question. Instead, she approached Ye and continued to ask, "How did my mother die?"Ye was so scared that she cried. She was almost forty years old and had experienced a lot. But now, she could no longer hold on.Gu Family was hit with too many matters recently. First, Gu Zhihua accid
For a full month, the Empress stayed in Weiyang Palace. She knew what she was waiting for. She was waiting for Gu Qiang to change everything so that she could get out of the predicament she was in right now.She never seemed to realize that she cared so much about Shen Qianshan. The time she spent with him was getting less and less, but the longing for him in her heart was gradually piling up like a mountain, unable to calm down.Gusu Liang came in and handed the fruit to the dazed Empress. She asked expressionlessly, "Miss, Ye is here. She said that she wanted to see you. Are you going to see her?"The Empress turned around. When Gusu Liang said this, she was very calm. It seemed that she did not take this matter to heart. It was just a casual question. As for how the Empress responded, she did not seem to care either."She must be here for the matter of Gu Zhihua. Let her in. If she does not pour out her words, she must fe
It was true that Shen Zhongbai did not like Gu Zhihua, but in terms of materialism, she had always had what she wanted. It was because she was contented and had nothing to do that she was always jealous. This time, Shen Zhongbai sent Gu Zhihua to the desolate palace, hoping that Gu Zhihua would reflect on herself."Your Majesty, as a mother, I only hope that you will cherish Zhihua. Life is not easy for her. It seems that you have never tried to treat Zhihua well. If you treated her well, she would even give her life to you," Ye said.At this time, she seemed to be a loving mother, but Shen Zhongbai already did not want to bother to cast a glance at her."I understand. Tomorrow, I will release Concubine Hua and pamper her. Let's see what she can do for me." Shen Zhongbai said with bad intentions. He continued, "Mother-in-law, if you have nothing to do, then leave. I really have to rest."When Ye came out of the Imperial Stud
Ye suddenly turned her head and asked in a sharp voice, "Marry her off? Marry who? Shen Zhongbai?"The maid nodded. Ye smiled disdainfully. "Does this sound appropriate? Not only does he want Zhihua, but he also wants Gu Qiang now? How can Shen Zhongbai monopolize both of Gu Family's daughters?"The maid did not speak. After all, she had no say in this matter. Ye got up, put on her coat, and rushed to Gu Zhizhang's study aggressively.The study was very quiet. The weather had gradually become cold. The fire in the room was bright. Gu Zhizhang curled himself up next to the stove, drinking tea and thinking about something.When Ye rushed in, Gu Zhizhang turned to look at her coldly and continued, "Why don't you stay in your own yard? What are you doing here?"Ye filled a cup of tea for Gu Zhizhang and asked calmly, "Sir, I heard from the servant that the Third Prince had come here. He even wanted Qiang to marry hi
Everyone turned to look at the poison master in surprise. However, he did not look at anyone at all. He just pursed his lips and searched around the room. Finally, he sat on the ground dejectedly and asked carefully, "Miss, did you offend someone? This medicine basically has no antidote. If you want to get the antidote..."After he said this, he shook his head and said to himself, "Forget it, no one will do that."When Shen Qianshan heard that there was a chance of getting the cure, he went up and asked, "There is still a way, right?"The poison master turned to look at Shen Qianshan. Suddenly, his eyes lit up. He said to Gu Qiang, who was behind Shen Qianshan, "You go out first. I need a quiet environment to prescribe the medicine."Gu Qiang was confused, but she still got up and left.Outside the room, there were many people. Those people came and went with sad expressions on their faces, as if they were confu
Gu Zhizhang gritted his teeth. He felt that this daughter of his was really intolerable. Not only was she not sensible, but she was always causing trouble.If not for the fact that she was Prefectural Princess now and that Gu Zhizhang was not able to control her anymore, he would definitely have taught this woman a lesson. Did Gu Qiang think he liked her? The relationship between the two of them had long since faded."All these things you said have no meaning to me anymore. I don't want to marry Shen Zhongbai. In order to prevent being implicated, it is the best choice for the Gu Family to marry Princess Luo Ping out. I think you already know that. So today, I hereby pay my last respects to you, Father."After saying that, Gu Qiang knelt on the ground and bowed to Gu Zhizhang. Then she turned to cast a glance at Shen Qianshan and slowly left.When Gu Zhizhang heard that the door was closed, his eyes dimmed. He gritted his te
Seeing Gushu Ran's dazed eyes, he realized that it was this unintelligent brother who had drunk too much alcohol."I have pills to wake up here, but to small not so fast, I'm afraid I still have to be confused for a while, within half an hour, it should be fine."Originally that day after she said those words, the royal brother had already come to find herself privately, she has already and Gusu Ran fixed the marriage should not still and Gusu Liang have a laugh, so she deliberately sat on the top today, for fear that she can't live on her own, she came down to talk to Gusu Liang again.Gusu Liang looked at Shen Siyin and nodded, "Princess, you can go back to your seat first, I'll just take care of this side."Shen Siyin will have some medical skills, so I'm afraid that if she takes the pulse of Gu Qiang's court, then Gu Qiang's identity as a woman will be immediately exposed, even if Shen Siyin really likes herself, I'm afraid that she won't be able to toler
Gu court ladies these days, in addition to stay in the free building, is to go to the original ruins of the listening pavilion, hoping to find their own diary, but the possibility of this has been very small, and then is to send people to keep an eye on the casino side of the matter, the day of life is also to quite comfortable, but Shen Qianshan side, there has been no news, but also let the court ladies Gu a little bit worried, but they have not had a bad feeling, Shen Qianshan and brother together, surrounded by so many people can help them should not be any big problem. Shen Qianshan and brother together, surrounded by so many people can help them, there should not be any big problem.Early this morning, Gusu Liang called Gu Qiang up in bed and gave her some basic skills of light kung fu, hoping that she would still have the ability to defend herself when she was not able to take care of herself. practicing, Qi Bai walked in, and saw that the two of them, Gu Qiang and Gusu
There were quite a few officials who often spent time inside the Rain Flower House, even Gu Linjiang was a regular there, but there was one thing, this place was set up from the beginning by Shen Qianshan to be able to cover up his own men's secret guards, but what Court Lady Gu wanted to do right now was how she could get rid of the people under Gu Linjiang.Eleven nodded, "Subordinate obeys, then by the master's side, is it necessary to arrange for someone else to protect him?"The last time Gusu Ran was attacked, they failed to properly protect, the heart since the guilt, the master this time have scar such an important task to them, they must not dare to let the master disappointed again."It's not necessary." Court Lady Gu did feel that after settling this matter this time, she herself would be safe instead, and even if Gu Linjiang wanted to make a move, he would definitely stop because of Shen Zhongbai.Gusu Liang waited for a long time in front of the
Gu Qiang court temporarily also has not yet thought to explain to Gusu Liang, after all, this time the thing, also can not be explained clearly in a few words, if you want Gusu Liang to completely trust themselves, Shen Zhongbai's side to look at, perhaps there will be something else dare not be resolved, Shen Siyin is now they an excellent shelter, although it is also said that this is also to take advantage of her, but Shen Zhongbai so deep in his heart, in addition to his sister, the He really couldn't think of anyone else he could use to alleviate his suspicions of himself.Gusu Liang stood alone in the hall of the Easy House, seemed to be thinking about something, watched Court Lady Gu walk down, and directly turned around, directly to the backyard, chasing the clouds also just came back, saw the two of them now this way, also felt strange, but the face of the two people are not very good, so that all of a sudden he also do not know exactly who should go to ask, so he jus
Not to mention the fact that both of them were now back in the capital.Shen Qianshan frowned, although he knew that he had Chasing Cloud by his side, he would still feel a little worried, these days when he and Gu Huai'an were both living in the post house, Gu Huai'an had pretty much told himself all those things that had happened in Kyoto during the time he was away.What exactly is the matter that necessitates that both Court Lady Gu and Cloud Chaser must return to Kyoto?Although Shen Qianshan didn't know what had happened yet, he always felt that this time things might not be that simple."Then these things will be put aside first, I now come back is an important thing to tell you, this Zhenzhou City, in fact, not as simple as we think, this factory county officials, and a pretending to be a god of heavenly masters in collusion with a gas, this natural disaster, I originally did not have such a serious consequences, but by the two of them were born into
Gu Qiangwei looked at the person in front of her, the temperament on Shen Qiangwei was completely different from before, if she was before, excessively well-behaved and understanding, even to the point of blind obedience to Shen Zhongbai, to the point that now she could even control his preferences, it seems that during this period of time when she was not there, Shangwei was also dealing with some things in her own way, in the process of dealing with some things."The prince-in-waiting is indeed eloquent, earlier I felt that I was not firm in my stance, but now it seems that I have been brought into this by someone even smarter."Court Lady Gu didn't deny it, but there were some things that were not really under her control, just for example, why would Shen Qiangwei be able to see things that had happened in the other world as well as herself, if it wasn't for Shen Qiangwei, perhaps her next plan wouldn't have gone so smoothly."Your Highness since all already kno
Gusu Liang reaction is indeed very intense, but in the way of the current circumstances, he did not put his own concerns out, his willingness to keep in touch with Shen Siyin these days, in fact, is entirely to cover up the court lady Gu is now not in the middle of the capital of this matter, since the matter has a better solution, why would you want to continue?Gusu Liang turned back and heavily tugged on the sleeve of Gu Qiang's court, but Gu Qiang didn't give him any response, Shen Siyin turned her head and tilted her head at her own brother, seemingly in demonstration, Shen Zhongbai wasn't angry, he just gently nodded, his own sister getting closer to them might not be a bad thing for him, at least being able to keep track of the movements of their two brothers every now and then, not letting them out of their control.However, this Gusu Ran's attitude, but still let himself some doubt, if it is replaced by a general man, even if it is not like, should not let their
Although it was still not clear whether such behavior was dangerous or not, and it was also not clear why Shen Siyin actually chose to help them, but at least up to now, Shen Zhongbai had not explicitly shown any dissatisfaction with them, and there was definitely no lack of Shen Siyin's help in this.Court Lady Gu didn't really know what she should do right now, but one thing was clear, this time when they went to the palace, Shen Zhongbai might take this time to talk about it, and no matter what happened today, they would have to deal with it carefully and seriously.Shen Zhongbai heard the words of the eunuch, in fact, also thought a lot, not to mention the appearance of the entire Gusu Ran are so sudden, now think about it, but they are in the Chamber of Commerce, in fact, it has been very suspicious ...Just around the small eunuch came to pass, Shen Zhongbai also happen to want to take advantage of this opportunity to test, Gusu Ran this period of time, has b
Shen Qianshan raised his own concerns, this period of time in the battlefield, he deliberately paid attention to Huang Hao this person, he is brave and good at fighting, nothing more than seems to be by virtue of a high martial arts, is considered to be the art of high courage, in the strategic and tactical insights, but never defensive, in his own or the former status of the king of the battlefield, but also has seen Huang Hao's rough and tumble.If you don't let that day on the battlefield will not let the Dongliang country's spies drilled so big a hole, in the final analysis, even if Huang Hao's side with Song Yu, but it doesn't mean that the two of them can be low-grade to live in this kind of situation, the people if less that's okay, if Liu Yue sent out too many people, inevitably there will be accidents.What's more, the court ladies are still following them now."Then how about this, we follow them forward and release carrier pigeons on the way, it's better
