Chapter 218: A Beauty, Even a Hero

Gu Zhao felt very innocent, why would anyone mention her?

Emperor Shouzheng is old and dying, the status of the prince is shaken, several princes are trying to compete for each other, the Donghao people are hiding in the dark and preparing to make a move, the market closure in the capital city is getting bigger and bigger, and the Zhenshan army has secretly left the station...

So many crises that may lead to the overthrow of the country are right in front of him. As the emperor, he doesn't think of ways to deal with it, but always talks about her. What is a small official in the He Control Department doing?

In such a short period of time, Gu Zhao heard Emperor Shouzheng mention his name several times!

Isn't it good to let her go?

Miss Lu didn't even raise her eyes and replied calmly, "I think it's good, but your Majesty may not think so."

Emperor Shouzheng showed a rare smile, and he didn't know whether his tone was good or bad, "What's good? Smart? Clever? Decisive enough? Not caring about family ties? Turning against others? Both biological parents and adoptive parents have to deal with it?"

The further he went on, the colder Emperor Shouzheng's smile became, "He refused to be the crown princess again and again, saying that he was not worthy, but in his heart he actually despised the royal family!"

"When you become an eagle dog, you should have the consciousness of an eagle dog!"

"It's impossible to rely on her identity as a hawk to bite her enemy Duke Li to death, and then try to be a noble gentleman who doesn't care about wealth!"

"You want to take advantage of the royal family, but you also want to distance yourself from the royal family?"

Emperor Shouzheng spoke in a hurry and began to cough again. He coughed so hard that he seemed to want to vomit out all his internal organs.

Wang Zhong came to serve him silently, and then quietly withdrew again.

Miss Lu didn't answer, she just stood aside quietly, like a statue, as if she could stand like this forever if no one woke her up.

But there was finally some fluctuation in the quiet eyes, which was an unnoticeable hostility.

"You are not much like your master." Emperor Shouzheng paused and suddenly said, "You are her youngest disciple, right?"

Ms. Lu said nothing, and her calm face made it difficult to tell what she was thinking.

Gu Zhao, who was eavesdropping, was a little surprised. Who was Miss Lu's master? Emperor Shouzheng's tone seemed to be somewhat nostalgic.

Ms. Lu cherished her words like gold and only answered one word, "Yes."

"If Gu Zhao was not her granddaughter, I would have just ordered the prince to get rid of this Gu Zhao immediately after I Bintian."

Gu Zhao's head roared, and he understood something instantly. Miss Lu's master was actually her grandmother, Lin Weikang's biological mother, the deceased Lao Li Guogong's wife?

The image of her grandmother, whom she had never met, became more and more vivid in Gu Zhao's heart.

There is a big parrot with an unreliable and colorful mouth, which shows that she herself is not a serious character; there are a group of servants like Aunt Wu, each of whom has their own craftsmanship, and they are still loyal to her, which shows that she also

Not an incompetent housewife.

Only now did she discover that she actually had an apprentice like Ms. Lu, a senior female officer in the Konghe Division. Her grandmother was no ordinary person!

Gu Zhao also understood why Ms. Lu, who did not have any special friendship with her at ordinary times, secretly helped her more than once at critical moments.

He must have just learned about her life experience and found out that she was the granddaughter of the deceased master, so he began to protect her and didn't want her to get involved in something she shouldn't be involved in at this critical moment.

He even took the risk of taking her to the imperial tent and letting her eavesdrop on the emperor and the prince's attitude towards her.

Emperor Shouzheng's eyes were half-closed, revealing danger, and he didn't speak for a long time. Just when Gu Zhao thought he might have fallen asleep, he suddenly let out a faint sigh.

"When people get old, they like to recall the past."

"I have experienced everything in my life, and I have seen countless heroes and beauties. Only your master is a beauty, and even more a hero." Emperor Shouzheng laughed twice, like a wretched thief, and Gu Zhao heard this.

Goosebumps rose up on my back, and I felt like this old man didn't have anything good in mind.

"He Zheng, the daughter of General He, is a powerful woman who can push down all seven-foot men. I always feel that even if I die, she will not die."

"I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it..."

As Emperor Shouzheng spoke, his voice became smaller and smaller. Finally, he tilted his head, snored softly, and actually fell asleep.

Gu Zhao sighed in his heart, it seemed that Emperor Shouzheng's time was really running out, so he called Miss Lu over, obviously intending to give some business instructions, but in the end he pulled a bunch of things, and then fell asleep again...

Fortunately, the prince is living well in this life, and there shouldn't be any big turmoil again, right?

Ms. Lu took a few steps back and saw Wang Zhong bringing someone over. He gently carried Emperor Shou Zheng to the bed to rest, and then quietly disappeared behind the curtain.

Gu Zhao followed her out of the imperial tent with a complicated look on his face. Looking at Miss Lu's slender back, he didn't even know what to call her.

Should he call her "Ms. Lu" as before, or should he change his name to "Auntie"?

Just when she was struggling, Ms. Lu suddenly turned around and waved to Gu Zhao, "Listen more, think more, and don't ask."

Gu Zhao nodded obediently, and Miss Lu showed her sly smile again, reaching out and pointing in a certain direction, "Go and have a look, maybe you will get something unexpected."

With that said, Ms. Lu walked forward, turned her back to Gu Zhao, raised her hand and shook her goodbye.

Gu Zhao stopped and looked at the sun that was already setting in the west. After much hesitation, he finally decided to look in the direction Miss Lu pointed.

There were many distinguished officials following the emperor, and tents of various sizes were spread out around. Wild flowers seemed to be blooming in the wilderness on one side of Longyou Slope.

Qin Xinglie was not around, and both Qi Si and Shen Wei were left in Gu Zhao's camp. Several Xiaohe were on alert, fearing that someone might attack Gu Zhao.

She walked in the direction pointed by Ms. Lu for a moment, and she was about to reach the edge of the camp. There was a forest not far away, but Gu Zhao still didn't notice anything unexpected.

Did Ms. Lu say something wrong, or did she go in the wrong direction?

Just when Gu Zhao began to consider whether to return, she suddenly noticed that there seemed to be a figure flashing in the forest. She took a closer look and saw that the white crane pattern embroidered on the corner of the robe was clearly the clothes of the Controlling Crane Division!
