There are plants growing in the entire yard, and even in the living room there are a few wooden frames with colorful potted plants. Guo Shao sat down and smelled the scent of colorful flowers and plants, the tranquil smell.
But he really has no leisure time this time. Physical discomfort will affect his mood.
At this moment, a young lady came up holding a glass cup. Guo Shao almost didn't recognize it, this little girl was Xiao Chuo. Xiao Chuo's shaved hair had grown to the shoulders, and it was too short to comb. She braided some pigtails, which looked a little more lively and pretty. She was wearing a flat-collared silk Hanfu and her **** gradually bulged.
"Your Majesty, you have a cup of tea." Xiao Chuo said cautiously, looking flattering.
Guo Shao didn't say a word, took off his hat and put it on the table, revealing a bald head, sitting there with all his body awkwardly, looking at Xiao Chuo with a complex expression. Xiao Chuo quietly glanced at his head, his face flushed, as if he wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh.
The culprit is this girl's dad! Guo Shao feels hostile when he thinks of Xiao Siwen. He used to respect this enemy with a bit of knowledge, but his tactics were too poor...under the wind and waves, how much blood was shed, but this man behind the scenes is still rich and wealthy. .
Guo Shao casually said: "Xiao Siwen seems to totally forget that his daughter is still in my hands."
After hearing this, Xiao Chuo showed fear and buried his head.
Lu Lan also came, bowing slightly to bow to Guo Shao. Guo Shao pointed to the wicker chair opposite, "Miss Lu, please sit down."
Lu Lan glanced at Guo Shao's bald head, and said softly: "At that time, the royal doctors were against shaving your majesty's hair. Your majesty will not blame the concubine?"
The ancients regarded hair as important. Guo Shao didn't have that idea at all. He said smoothly, "Life is important, and hair can grow."
Lu Lan smiled and said: "The concubine knows that Your Majesty is not a person who is stuck with the world."
Guo Shao stretched out his hand to play with the crystal glass cup. Although the person who brought it was a Khitan girl, he still trusted Lu Lan here. Seeing the thin green leaves and white flowers floating in the water, the leaves are like lips, and the shape is a bit strange, so I asked, "What kind of flower is this?"
Lu Lan replied softly: "Rosemary."
"Oh." Guo Shao nodded and did not continue talking, obviously he was not interested. He moved his body, and said seriously, "Lady Lu is helping me. I am here to thank you today. Whatever you want, I will do my best if I can do it."
Lu Lan heard a faint loss on her face here, she pressed her lips to make a subtle movement, there seemed to be fine pearl powder in the rouge, and there was a delicate luster in the sunlight leaking out between the flowers and plants ; Inadvertently, Guo Shao felt that the lip-shaped blades of grass in the crystal glass cup seemed to have some similarities.
She turned to smile again, turned to look at Xiao Chuo and said, "My mother asked Yanyan to serve tea, and I want to ask your Majesty to forgive her, as long as she doesn't hurt her life, I don't know your Majesty..."
Although Guo Shao resented what Xiao Siwen did, he still had no idea of venting Xiao Chuo. If you retaliate against a little girl, it seems a bit incompetent! The point is, it didn't work either.
"I promise you." Guo Shao said without hesitation.
He wondered again that sometimes women are more minded than men. Xiao Siwen robbed the Bai family, causing her family to be ruined. The Bai family still wanted to protect Xiao Siwen's daughter; perhaps in Liao, the Bai family had some affection for this child.
After hearing this, Lu Lan said embarrassedly: "Your Majesty treats me, and I really have to answer every request."
Guo Shao pretended to be calm and said: "It's just a trivial matter."
...The **** Wang Zhong waited boredly for Guo Shao outside the door, and Li Yueji still stood there not far away.
Wang Zhong looked around for a few times, and finally walked over and replied with Li Yueji: "The concubine Xian is not going back, what are you doing here?"
Li Yueji used to look down on this kind of male and female eunuchs, but after staying in the Daxu Palace for so long, it seemed that he was no longer arrogant. She also took the conversation now: "I want to talk to the officials." /
Wang Zhong frowned and said, "Is there anything to talk about? If the officials want to see you, you don't need to be entangled here."
Li Yueji heard a humiliating red on her face, "I don't want to pester the officials, but I am a great concubine of the royal family."
Wang Zhong sneered and looked up and down Li Yueji, as if remembering the appearance of the old lady who didn’t know what to do as a slave and didn’t even look at him. He looked right and left and said in a low voice: "Your name , I don’t know how long it will last!"
Li Yueji frowned and said nothing.
Wang Zhong whispered again: "How many things has Ms. Lu helped your Majesty? Recently, she has done a great job in saving her life. This is to be replaced by a man, and she must be honored as a man, and she will be ranked third. Unfortunately, Ms. Lu is The daughter's body... only the status of the imperial concubine can be awarded. Nowadays, there are both queens and four wives in the Daxue Palace. Where is there a place? Unless one is replaced..."
After he said, he looked at Li Yueji thoughtfully with some teasing.
Li Yueji's face turned pale when she heard it, and Wang Zhong's eyes made her hair | In fact, she doesn't really care about the name of this great harem. After all, a rich little girl and a party member, but... if she is not even the imperial concubine, can she help rebel against the captured father?
Li Yueji looked down on Wang Zhong as a servant in her heart, but she had to think that the **** made a lot of sense. To relocate to Lu Niangzi, she, the daughter of a lost criminal, is the most suitable candidate.
She glanced at the door of the yard and was very upset.
...At this time, Zhou Xian is upset and angry.
Zhou Xian looked at the box of jewels in front of him, and said coldly: "Mrs. Zhou, I can't help you!"
The standing woman is Zhou Duan's wife Wang. Zhou Duan belonged to the Zhou family. Because of Zhou Xian, he defected to Guo Shao very early to do a long history in Xuzhou.
Wang's Lihua said with rain: "The husband really did not participate in the fornication of the Zhao family. However, the officials respected all the year round and offended people if they did not accept it! The husband also had no way, and he had to repay Zuo Fuzheng’s knowledge during the holidays. Grace... Before, my husband didn’t even know that the officials in Xuzhou were so bold to commit big cases, otherwise they would not dare to accept it anyway!"
Zhou Xian said coldly: "Then why don't you look for Zuo You? How can I manage the affairs of officialdom as a woman?"
Wang choked and said: "Zuo Fuzheng is also hard to protect himself now, and I also want his wife to have the opportunity to help intercede. It is not Zuo Fuzheng who is in charge of the case, but Huang Fuzheng (Huang Binglian) and people from the Privy Council."
When Zhou Xian heard this, he became even more angry. He immediately took off the things on his head and wrists and put them in the box on the spot, and pushed forward: "Take them all back!"
"Madam, please!" Wang threw himself on his knees, "The husband is finally your maiden family. If he is ruined, his reputation and status will not be good for the wife..."
Zhou Xian said: "You take the things first. Now the entrance and exit of the palace are strictly checked. What you brought in, and what you took, it is clear to the internal servant. How can I dare to accept it?"
There seems to be a little room for this sentence, and Wang stopped crying, thanking him for his kindness and pleading.
Wang promised to take back the jewels he brought in today, but he didn't accept the jewels that he had given before. When Zhou Xian was angry, he blurted out that the source of those things was unknown, and that he was wearing it as dirty, which immediately made Wang feel ashamed.
Wang was finally sent away, Zhou Xian was still irritable. Zhou Xian looked down on her cousin Chen Jiali, and felt that Chen Jiali was pretending to be noble, but in fact she was a **** with an archway! Did he become the kind of person who looked down upon her? She thought a lot, thinking that this matter would be known to Guo Shao sooner or later, and she was afraid that Guo Shao would look down upon it.
... Guo Shao returned to the Long Live Hall from Lu Lan's residence, and saw the **** Yang Shiliang standing at the door. He turned his head and beckoned to Yang Shiliang, Yang Shiliang followed in and whispered a few words in Guo Shao's ear.
Guo Shao sat in a chair and thought for a while, then said: "Emperor E is a noble man, not a person who covets things outside, but her cousin, Chen Jiali, is rich and powerful, and she wears it every time she comes to the palace. Very rare jewelry, never duplicated."
"Your Majesty is wise." Yang Shiliang said.
"Pass the decree to the library, pick a few good jewels, and reward Ehuang for me." Guo Shao handled the matter simply.
"According to the order." Yang Shiliang bowed, and then said quietly after a while, "This matter has little to do with Mrs. Zhou, but Governor Xu Shi Zhouduan..."
Guo Shaodao: "Aren't Wang Pu and Huang Binglian doing it?"
"Yes, yes." Yang Shiliang answered.
Guo Shao rubbed his head with a scorpion, feeling that this matter is a bit complicated... If Zhou Duan is planted, it is likely that Zuo You will be involved. Because Zhou Duan and Zuo You had a close relationship long ago, Guo Shao used his toes to figure out that if Zhou Duan took bribes, he would inevitably share it with Zuo You, who is in the center of power...
This is very common in officialdom, and it is usually fine. But once something big happens, it will be pulled out.
Guo Shao could not confirm what was going on in the middle, but based on years of knowledge of Zuo You, he felt that Zuo You was rather unlucky this time... Luo Yanhuan found him and made him feel embarrassed, but it is very likely that he left You didn't want to take the initiative to get involved with Luo Yanhuan; he usually received Zhou Duan's money, and Zuo You, who had been in Tokyo, probably didn't know where the money came from.
There was also a Jade Han Tianzi pen on the table. Guo Shao took it down from the pen holder, dipped it back and forth on the inkstone, and scribbled on the paper. Some names, some links in circles.
Guo Shao didn't want to interfere in the case, but now it seems that Zhou Duan may be planted, and Zuo You will not be beaten to the end... After all, Guo Shao must nod his head if he wants to move the cabinet to serve.
These twists and turns inside, seem to be unclear forever, and can't be dealt with anyway. Guo Shao looked at the big picture on the wall, and turned his eyes to a wider place, the blank on the edges of those pictures, and further away. He didn't feel that he should be completely caught by the thorns under his feet.
I always feel less imposing when I use my own people. What Guo Shao missed most was Xiao Siwen's servant. ..
