I can't afford it, it's super fierce!

Chapter 79

"My lord, don't be joking." The candlelight in the room was a bit dazzling, Jiang Li extinguished a candle, the light was slightly dim, and the surroundings were filled with hazy and warm colors.Gu Jinzhi propped his chin with one hand, his eyelids sank, and finally fell asleep unconsciously.

Jiang Li put away the piano score, put it in a rosewood embossed auspicious cloud pattern box beside him, and called out: "Jin Zhi."

Jiang Li raised his eyes, and saw Gu Jinzhi who was sleeping soundly on the low table, got up and went around to Gu Jinzhi's side, took Mu Shi's brocade robe and put it on him.

At this moment, Yu Tai ran in from the outside in a panic, and rushed in with wind, snow and cold: "My lord, my lord!"

Jiang Li hurriedly made a silent gesture to Yu Tai, but Yu Tai realized later, stopped his voice, stood on the spot and bowed and said, "Young Master Jiang, the news just came from the palace that His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess came from the attic. Stumbled and fell, the Empress Dowager and His Majesty both went to Yuming Palace."

Before Jiang Li could speak, Gu Jinzhi suddenly sat up in shock, his expression changed drastically: "What did you say?"

Yu Tai hurriedly explained: "My lord, don't worry, the eldest princess is safe and sound, but her forehead is scratched, and her body is fine."

Gu Jinzhi naturally couldn't rest assured that his younger sister had an accident, so he immediately ordered Yutai to prepare horses and prepare to enter the palace.

Jiang Li has a very good relationship with Gu Jinhua, so it is reasonable to visit him now.Before leaving, he asked for an order from the palace, and when it was almost dawn, Jiang Li and Gu Jinzhi drove all the way to Miyagi in a carriage, and went straight to the Yuming Palace of Princess Anping.

At this time, the Yuming Palace was noisy and noisy, concubines from all palaces and halls came to say hello one after another, the Empress Dowager and the Emperor never left from the beginning to the end, the court ladies and eunuchs were busy in the front yard and the inner yard.When Jiang Li and Gu Jinzhi arrived, all the concubines in the palaces had left one after another, leaving behind only concubines who had a good relationship with the eldest princess and the emperor's favorite concubines.

When he walked into the main hall, Gu Jinzhi found a person kneeling at the door, who was supposed to be the emperor's concubine.She knelt down, head held high and her chest held high, revealing an arrogance that was fearless from the bottom of her bones.And the palace maid kneeling behind her was trembling with fright, lying on the ground in a puddle of mud and not daring to move.

In a hurry to go in, Gu Jinzhi only glanced at it absent-mindedly.

Inside the room stood the emperor, empress, Gu Yunsheng, the empress dowager sitting beside the bed, and a few high-ranking concubines standing beside her, each with frightened faces, asking the imperial physician who was taking the pulse by the bed from time to time.

"Hey, Brother Wang is here too?" Princess Anping was in good spirits, she was still laughing even though she fell on all fours.His forehead was blue and purple and blood was oozing, his snow-white wrist muscles were covered with bruises, and the apricot-colored dress he had just changed for the Lantern Festival was also stained with mud, and his hair was messed up behind him, looking in a mess.

Gu Jinzhi first saluted the person in charge in the room, and then walked to the princess's bedside, and asked with concern: "What's going on? Why is the maid next to you so poor that you stumbled and fell into the attic?"

As soon as these words came out, the maid who was kneeling in the distance threw herself to the ground, trembling with fright.

"It's none of Qiaoyan's business." Princess Anping hastily argued: "If Qiaoyan hadn't reacted quickly and caught me in time, and rolled down the stairs with me in her arms, I would have more than hit my head."

Gu Jinzhi frowned: "Why are you so careless? Are you running, jumping and playing with others?"

The eldest princess smiled broadly, she didn't seem to care about these things, but asked impatiently: "I heard that Mr. Jiang asked for an order to enter the palace, did you come with Mr. Wang?"

Everyone looked at Gu Jinzhi together, and Gu Jinzhi said, "Li'er is waiting in the side hall, and you can't enter unless you get the order."

"Since he's here, why don't you come in?" The eldest princess anxiously held the queen mother's hand and said coquettishly: "The queen mother let him in quickly, it's hard for him to enter the palace."

The empress dowager's gloomy face was slightly warm, and she patted the eldest princess's hand lightly, without the emperor's nodding, she gave Nanny Tian a look beside her.After a while, Mother Tian came in with Jiang Li.

Showing respects to the emperor, queen and queen mother in turn, the emperor said flatly, his eyes flicked back and forth on Jiang Li, and then silently looked away.

"Kowtow to His Royal Highness, Kowtow to the Eldest Princess."

Gu Yunsheng naturally called out quickly: "Sir, please get up."

Princess Anping smiled and said, "I haven't seen Mr. Jiang since Bengong's birthday last year. How is Mr. Jiang?"

"Princess Xie is concerned, everything is safe for the grassroots." Jiang Li saluted again, feeling that the eyes fell on him, and the breath did not belong to Gu Jinzhi.And this kind of look, Jiang Li doesn't need to look at it, just feel it a little bit, because he has seen it too many times in Xiangxue Pavilion.

Surprise, shock, admiration, fascination, and even a hint of madness and hidden evil.Jiang Li slightly raised his eyebrows, and met the sight that made him extremely uncomfortable.

Emperor.

The momentary rigidity of the atmosphere was cut off by Jiang Li's gaze moving away.

The imperial doctor checked the pulse for a long time, moved back, knelt on the ground and said: "Your Majesty and the Queen Mother, please rest assured, the eldest princess is just a skin trauma, and she was a little frightened. Wait for the minister to prescribe a prescription, and the eldest princess can take it on time."

"Really?" The queen mother was still worried: "The wound on the forehead..."

"Empress, there is ice dew in the concubine's palace to treat scars. The effect is particularly good. After a few days of application, it will surely recover." The queen said.

The queen mother nodded, and then she breathed a sigh of relief.But her face was still extremely ugly, she glanced at the emperor coldly, and said to everyone in a cold tone: "Where is that bitch?"

Gu Yunsheng stayed on the sidelines and watched the changes, the empress was secretly happy, the people in the hall were silent, and the emperor's face was cloudy, so she heard Tian's mother answering the queen mother's words beside her: "Concubine Xiang is still kneeling outside the hall."

The queen mother stopped talking, but looked at the emperor, as if waiting for the emperor to order execution.And looking at the emperor's expression, he was obviously hesitant and reluctant, and he told Eunuch Tang: "Go and ask Concubine Xiang to come in."

The emperor had to deal with the family affairs in the harem, Jiang Li, as an outsider, was inconvenient to be present, so he stepped back first, and together with Gu Jinzhi, passed by the concubine Xiang who came in.

Gu Jinzhi was taken aback on the spot, and his heart tightened.

When I came in just now, I was in a hurry, and I didn't see the face of this concubine Xiang clearly.Although she is born beautiful and hard to give up, she is a colorless beauty, but to Gu Jinzhi, she is just a vulgar fan, and he doesn't even pay attention to that night Laiyou, let alone this concubine Xiang.But... There was a kind of aura about her, a tough and unyielding aura, an arrogance and inviolability, which was somewhat similar to Jiang Li.

Not only that, but judging by her figure and appearance, although she is far from being comparable to Jiang Li, she is at least [-]% similar.Gu Jinzhi frowned slightly, and from the corner of his eye, he looked at Concubine Xiang hurriedly entering the palace, and the emperor who was waiting in the palace with a hesitant expression.

The quiet needle drop could be heard in the hall. Concubine Xiang walked into the hall, knelt down in the center of the hall neither humble nor overbearing, and after saluting, she raised her eyes to look at the emperor, a pool of autumn water filled with grievance and innocence.The emperor just glanced at it, his heart felt as if he had been scratched by a cat. To be honest, he didn't want to treat Concubine Xiang seriously, and even couldn't bear to suffer a little grievance. How can we protect Concubine Xiang?

Before the Empress Dowager could reprimand her, Concubine Xiang lowered her eyebrows and said, "In the Shangyuan festival, my concubine drank too much wine and played with the maid in the imperial garden. The concubine was unintentional, and she punished that evil animal immediately, I don't know how safe the eldest princess is? The concubine...convicted of the crime."

Concubine Xiang fell on the ground, looking respectful and sincere, but her tone was cold and without any remorse, especially the word "conviction" at the end, which was extremely reluctant and reluctant.The queen mother heard it in her ears, it was as sharp as a needle prick.

The emperor thought that Concubine Xiang had knelt outside the palace all night, so he couldn't bear it, but when he saw Concubine Xiang's pleading, his heart suddenly softened: "Since it was unintentional, then..."

"Emperor." The Empress Dowager interrupted the emperor in a cold voice: "We must follow the rules in everything, and if we make mistakes, we should be punished. If we let it go carelessly at this time, wouldn't everyone in this harem be safe?"

The emperor was taken aback: "The queen mother is serious."

"Anping is only 11 years old. He is still young. He was bumped by a dog and rolled down the stairs during the Shangyuan Festival. The concubine was shocked when he heard it." The first-rank concubine on the side fanned the flames: "Fortunately, God blesses you. The eldest princess is safe and sound, if there is anything wrong with the eldest princess, Concubine Xiang, you cannot escape your guilt."

Concubine Xiang raised her eyes, her cold gaze pierced Concubine Xian, the latter burst into anger from the bottom of her heart, she wanted to take a step forward to teach this bitch a few words, but suddenly thought of the emperor's usual attitude towards Concubine Xiang, she knew in her heart Unable to please, he simply swallowed his breath and silently took a step back.

Princess Anping was smiling all the time, she didn't blame Concubine Xiang, let alone say a bad word about the dog.

The emperor felt a little relieved, and heaved a little sigh of relief: "It was the dog that made the mistake, and it's not about Aifei's business. But since it's your dog, if something goes wrong, you have to take responsibility."

Concubine Xiang suppressed the dissatisfaction in her heart, and squeezed out a word between her teeth: "Yes."

"Punish you to confine yourself to Yanle Palace and not to go out. In the future, cats and dogs are prohibited in the palace." The emperor had no intention of severely punishing, everyone knew this.The queen knew it well, so naturally she couldn't say anything.The queen mother has her own concerns, so it is inconvenient to say more.

The incident happened suddenly, and it ended in a hurry. Everyone left one by one. Princess Anping watched the emperor go away, and the smile on her face that had never faded from beginning to end finally faded.

"Does it hurt?" The Empress Dowager looked at the wound on Anping's forehead, feeling very distressed: "Although the beast named Liang Gao was killed, Concubine Xiang..."

"Concubine Xiang is the imperial brother's favorite concubine." Princess Anping said suddenly, causing the Queen Mother to be taken aback.

"Brother Huang's obsession with her is unmatched by all the concubines in the Six Palaces combined. I understand that if the Queen Mother insists on punishing Concubine Xiang, it will definitely hurt Brother Huang's heart and the relationship between mother and child. It's not worth it just for a concubine." Princess Anping's clear eyes revealed a childlike innocence, but what she said surprised the queen mother.

"The Ai family only treats you as a young child, but they don't want you to know right from wrong and understand the stakes." The queen mother caressed Anping's head. The reason why she didn't care and laughed was to reassure the emperor. Maintain the precious brother-sister relationship between them.

Princess Anping laughed again: "Even Sheng'er has become the crown prince and participated in the government affairs. If Jinhua doesn't grow up at all, it would be too shameful."

Princess Anping got overjoyed for a moment, pulled the wound on her forehead, and immediately grinned in pain.This seemingly innocent, ignorant and ignorant appearance, but in fact has a clear heart and has some insight, which is very similar to Gu Jinzhi.
