"You go to court tomorrow." The Queen Mother did not turn around. She had been in the palace for decades, and she could guess what happened at the slightest movement.
Bai Guo was a little surprised that these words came from the mouth of the Queen Mother.
"You don't have to look at Aijia like this. Aijia is here for Cheng Zhou."
She doesn't like ginkgo, but what she faces now is no longer a question of likes and dislikes. As long as the emperor can go to court and can support the current Chengzhou, not to mention that Princess Kangle is the supervisor of the second rank, sitting in her position, she It can also be done.
What's more important is that she is no longer a teenager.
"As long as you can let the emperor sit on the throne, it doesn't matter if the Aijia gives you unparalleled honor." The Queen Mother's tone was calm, with the calmness left by the years and being indifferent to worldly affairs.
Ging Guo didn't deny it, but he didn't approve it either.
"Kang Le should have earned the honor in this life by himself."
There was nothing special about what Ging Guo said, but everyone who heard it felt special.
Yes, Princess Kangle's status is now recognized by the world, and her path is stable and smooth.
The Queen Mother noticed the wording in Bai Guo's words, frowned slightly and looked at Bai Guo, but first she saw a figure waiting in front.
He is tall and has a strong aura.
Surrounded by eunuchs and maids who wanted to go over to please but didn't dare.
If other people had already stepped forward to salute at this time, but the figure did not come close, they just waited quietly.
"Anyone who can lead troops on the battlefield and make a name for himself is not a good person." The Queen Mother did not go any further.
Bai Guo also looked at the waiting figure in the distance, with a smile in his eyes that he didn't even notice.
The Queen Mother didn't hear the reply. She turned around and was about to look at Bai Guo when she heard her nanny reminding her, "General Chi Zhong is here."
The Queen Mother could not look back. She watched that figure approaching with irrepressible momentum. The world was suppressed and faded in his steps, and the guards bowed their heads in his steps.
"See the Queen Mother, Third Young Lady."
As the person came closer, the world knew how strong the oppression was. The nun beside the Queen Mother took two steps back uncomfortably, and the expressions on the other maids' faces were tense.
The Queen Mother had seen thousands of people's vicissitudes of life over the years. When she looked over, she saw that the other person's eyes were falling behind her.
The Queen Mother was in a daze for a moment.
She was also familiar with this scene.
When that person was still there, this was how he looked at her behind her.
Those were more than ten years that many women in the harem did not dare to recall.
It seems that wherever she appears, these people no longer exist, as if as long as she lives, they will never be able to get ahead.
So after her death, there were countless concubines in the palace who were crazy with joy.
"Why did Brother Pang Yang enter the palace?"
Bai Guo's question brought the Queen Mother back to her senses. She turned her head slightly and looked over. She felt a strange sense of enlightenment in that aura that was so arrogant that the world could not tolerate it.
I see.
She remembered that the guard she first met did not have this oppressive majesty.
"Pang Yang is worried about Miss Third." Pang Yang said this solemnly, and at the same time he looked at the guards, implying a warning.
At the same time, his limbs were protecting the person in front of him.
The Buddhist beads in the Queen Mother's hands had not been touched for a long time.
General Chizhong, who was arguing in the court and harem, was asking for something so ridiculous.
So bold too.
Keeping Princess Kangle alive is equivalent to asking for the stars and moon in the sky.
The Queen Mother knew that she could be so calm at this time because she had already predicted the outcome of Princess Kangle, but at this time she could not confirm it.
Half of the powerful people in the Zhou Kingdom are planning to let Princess Kangle die, but there is one person who can stop this half of the people from letting Princess Kangle live.
He dares to fight against this world, and he is preparing to fight against this world.
…
The Queen Mother didn't want to think about it and waved her hand for the two of them to leave.
No matter what kind of relationship they have, she can't deal with either of them.
In this case, it is better to wait and see what happens.
Early the next morning, Ge Yin put Ging Guo into official uniform and put Ging Guo on the carriage. Pang Yang rode beside the carriage to protect him, and the surrounding guards were more vigilant than usual.
That arrow is everyone's inner demon.
When Ging Guo appeared in the court, the eyes of many ministers were as wide as lanterns, and the horror inside made Ging Guo glance twice.
Pang Yang's official position was the same as that of Bai Guo. They stood side by side, and the many open mouths of handsome men and beautiful women in the hall were closed.
Wrong, wrong!
They were wrong from the start!
She shouldn't have been made the county leader! She shouldn't be allowed to escort food and grass to the front line! She shouldn't have been allowed to leave Kyoto!
One wrong step and one wrong step after another.
Now they can no longer shake her!
"The Emperor has arrived!"
Everyone's minds finally moved away from these two people, and they knelt down and saluted.
"No gift."
In just a few days, Xuanxian's voice was full of vicissitudes of life and fatigue.
Bai Guo stood up and looked up, and saw a man who had lost an unknown amount of weight.
The days are like years, and a few days can torture a person to a state of disgrace.
"Your Majesty, I have something to report!"
"Word."
"Your Majesty, the position of Minister Liang will be taken over by the Minister of War. It is just the position of Minister of War..."
At this moment, Bai Guo could clearly feel that the superior's eyes were on her.
"The list of candidates will be sent to the Imperial Study Room after the next court meeting."
…
The emperor had not attended the morning court for several days, so today's morning court did not end until noon. Although Bai Guo already had an official position, she was not in Kyoto, so the officials left in a hurry after the court, and she was particularly conspicuous in the crowd.
Xuanyuan saw it at a glance, "Princess Kangle."
The voice is hoarse and the eyes are red and swollen.
This is what Ging Guo saw when he looked over.
"Little Princess." Bai Guo stood still, waiting for the other party to speak.
"My father..." Xuanyuan choked up as soon as she started speaking, "Why..."
"Sorry." Bai Guo lowered his eyes, "I don't know where the prince is."
Xuanyuan's red and swollen eyes began to shed tears again, "My father died because of you..."
The prince died because of Princess Kangle.
It was because Princess Kangle was assassinated that the prince was accidentally injured.
If Princess Kangle had just stayed at home that day as usual, the prince would definitely be fine.
These words have spread throughout Kyoto in the past few days.
It was later reported that someone suspected, "Princess Kangle is very happy, and it is common for her not to go out for many days. Why does she have to check the rent on that day? And it happens to be that the prince is going out when he gets off the carriage?"
These sounds could not reach Gingo's ears, but they could reach Xuanyuan's.
"Feel sorry."
Xuanyuan cried silently, "I hate that my mother and concubine always fight for my father, but I don't want to be without my father!"
Bai Guo didn't reply, and Xuanyuan couldn't stop crying. She looked at Bai Guo and asked, "Are what those people said true?"
Bai Guo shook his head and was silent for a moment before replying, "No."
Xuanyuan's tears still didn't stop, "But I hope what they said is true."
Bai Guo raised his eyes slightly and heard Xuanyuan say: "This way you are no longer innocent, and I can hate you! There is no need to be unable to do anything like now..."
"You are innocent, and so is my father. I can't bear to complain. I can only cry about this world all day long! My father will never come back again..."
Xuanyuan looked at Shang Gingguo with a pair of tear-filled eyes, "I don't have a father anymore..."
"But you're still alive."
"It's a good life for a woman to go to court and serve as an official."
Xuanyuan laughed while crying, her smile full of tears, "Why? They are all innocent people, why are you not affected at all?"
"Ging Guo... Kang Le... I have never hated you so much in one day. I hate that you are sitting in a high position but sitting firmly in it. If possible... I really want to pull you down so that you can experience how I feel now."
Xuanyuan kept crying, "I am not a vicious person, I just want you to know the pain I am feeling now... Only in this way will I feel that the world is fair, and I will feel that you are innocent too."
"But now you are really... so beautiful."
Why?
There are mourning flags hanging all over the capital, and her father can no longer touch her head and take her out to play, while another person who should be like this is living like this?
It was obvious that her father was the one who should be alive, and it was obvious that she should be the one lying down.
With tears in her eyes, Xuanyuan looked at the eyes with their long and narrow ends naturally upward, her arrogance, and her calmness at this time.
Xuanyuan felt that her crying was a joke in the eyes of the other party. She was in a state of embarrassment and the other party was full of nobility.
"Princess Kangle." Xuanyuan stopped crying when she didn't get a response. She looked at Bai Guo's eyes gradually changing from weak and incompetent, "I hope you can treat people like this throughout your life, and don't let me, the princess, read the joke!"
Xuanyuan left.
Countless palace maids supported and waited for her, worried that she might get sick at any time.
Bai Guo stood there for a long time. When a young eunuch boldly stepped forward to ask, he saw another figure walking over.
"Miss Third." Pang Yang looked in the direction where Bai Guo was looking, and there was only nothingness there.
Ging Guo didn't respond and just continued walking where he stopped just now.
Pang Yang followed up without asking any more questions. Looking at Bai Guo's appearance, he hesitated for a moment and wanted to speak, but Bai Guo said first, "I can't feel her pain."
Ginkgo is born to be rich and noble, the family will be peaceful and free from strife, and the family will be free from illness and disease.
So she couldn't empathize with Xuanyuan, and couldn't feel the pain as she expected.
Pang Yang was silent for a moment, "What if someone deceived Miss Third?"
Will the third lady be in pain?
Bai Guo didn't stop and said calmly, "Would anyone not lie to me?"
Pang Yang pursed his lips.
"Between life and death, why should I care about this?" Ging Guo walked slowly.
"Third Miss, everyone has his own destiny." Pang Yang's voice was a little dull.
He was used to this on the battlefield, but he didn't want Bai Guo to experience it.
"The little princess is different from the third lady, and the prince is different from the third lady. Third lady, don't think too much about it."
Bai Guo didn't know if she thought too much about it. She just continued to live day by day and could see that the emperor was getting thinner. But after this month, she was recovering day by day.
Liang Shangshu's position was taken by the minister. Liang Shangshu bid farewell to officialdom completely. Almost on the same day, several people involved with Liang Shangshu were quickly demoted.
The wind began to point to new dignitaries, and another group of people repeated the scene that Liang Shangshu had seen before.
During this month, Ging Guo and the Queen Mother stabilized the emperor and the court ran normally, but at the same time Ging Guo could clearly detect the emperor's fatigue and rapid aging.
The prince's death dealt a greater blow to the emperor than anything else.
But there are always people who can ignore this pain.
"Your Majesty, I have something to report."
Above the court, everyone who was about to retreat looked over.
