Chapter 345(1/2)
"Why did you suddenly care about the things in the palace?" Zhu Zhongjun asked Gu Jinzhi.
Gu Jinzhi chuckled softly: "I talked to Concubine De for a while in the afternoon, but she said the wrong sentence without restraint, which made me think a lot. She is my sister, and I am also worried about her. She can't keep going like this..."
A few rays of doubt flashed in Zhu Zhongjun's eyes.
He asked again: "Why did you suddenly say Concubine Tan? If she was the queen, the Tan family's power would be even more powerful, and the emperor would probably not be able to control them..."
His voice was low.
The palace is full of ears and ears.
But Gu Jinzhi hesitated.
Then, she glanced at Zhu Zhongjun, approached him, and said in an inauspicious whisper: "Isn't it better to be unable to control it? You don't want to..."
She said that Zhu Zhongjun wanted to be the emperor.
Zhu Zhongjun choked slightly.
He really wanted to be the emperor in the past.
Later, when something happened to Gu Jinzhi, the emperor did not take any action. Instead, he registered Gu Jinzhi without saying a word. Zhu Zhongjun could understand his protection of Gu Jinzhi.
Whether the emperor was for Gu Jinzhi or for brotherly love, Zhu Zhongjun owed him a great favor.
Zhu Zhongjun is grateful to anyone who is kind to Gu Jinzhi.
The only thing the emperor dissatisfied with Zhu Zhongjun was that he was thinking about Gu Jinzhi.
"It's not that easy." Zhu Zhongjun said, "It's naturally the best way to be fishermen when fighting between snipes and clams. I'm afraid that before the snipes and clams are fighting, we will fall down first..."
As the Tan family becomes more and more powerful, Gu Yantao will naturally be excluded.
Perhaps in the end, the Gu family was squeezed out and the imperial power fell. Zhu Zhongjun and Gu Jinzhi, the two fishermen, were helpless.
To awaken a beast, you need to be careful, because you may not be able to control it yourself if you are not careful.
Zhu Zhongjun in his previous life was very bold when he was young, but when he was middle-aged and old, he became more and more stable. Now, he still maintains the mentality of the last years of his previous life.
A young man is not frivolous. But if he keeps being frivolous, he will be difficult to become a great man. The higher the status of Zhu Zhongjun, the more he is, the lower his name will be.
He is no longer so arrogant.
There was something uncontrollable. Did he do little in his previous life?
He doesn't want to repeat the same mistakes anymore.
He can never experience the ignorant and fearless state of mind.
"I can't decide who is the queen?" Gu Jinzhi said softly, "It's just thinking about it in his heart."
Zhu Zhongjun sat upright.
"Gu Jinzhi, why did you mention the Tan family?" Zhu Zhongjun had a problem in his heart, and he was almost about to burst out. "Can you tell me?"
Gu Jinzhi shook his head, lay down with a smile, and said, "It's just mentioned casually, it doesn't make any sense. Let's go to bed first, and I'll go back tomorrow."
Zhu Zhongjun looked at her shoulders and did not look back for a long time.
He didn't know what Gu Jinzhi was thinking, lying on his side.
He seemed to understand a little in his heart.
He thought of Tan You.
The fire in my heart was burning.
Zhu Zhongjun's eyes were red with hatred.
####
Gu Jinzhi lay on his side, paying attention to Zhu Zhongjun.
The people around her didn't lie down. She felt a little panic.
Ever since Zhu Zhongjun confessed to her, she has understood that some words cannot be told even more.
As long as Gu Jinzhi doesn't say it in person, Zhu Zhongjun has reason to lie to himself. After all, Gu Jinzhi still retains his virginity.
Gu Jinzhi couldn't let him have no reason to deceive himself.
The closer you are to someone, the more you cannot tell some things.
As a human being, you cannot transfer the most painful things you have to the one you are closest to, because the one you are closest will hurt me.
Transfer the pain to the person who cares most and lets him empathize with it. How can I bear it in my heart?
Gu Jinzhi would rather bear it alone.
Therefore, Gu Jinzhi had to go on the next path alone.
Of course she hopes that Concubine Tan can become the queen.
If you want to take it, you must give it first.
If you want to destroy the Tan family, you must first pick up the Tan family and make them crazy.
Gu Jinyi thought about this all night.
Don't worry, this matter needs to be slow, you have to take it slowly.
Nothing wrong can be done at all.
She didn't sleep until the hour of Yin, and woke up again at the beginning of Mao, and only slept for an hour.
Zhu Zhongjun thought for a while, but was too tired and fell asleep again.
On the morning of the third day of the wedding, Gu Jinzhi got up first and went to the clean room behind to wash. When she came back, the palace people came in to serve her dressing, and Zhu Zhongjun woke up.
He had a split headache.
He sat on the bed, rubbed his head hard, and asked Gu Jinzhi: "What should I do? I have a headache. But what medicine can relieve it?"
"There is no medicine." Gu Jinzhi said, "I will help you press the palm to see if it can be relieved. Extend your hand..."
Zhu Zhongjun was powerless to extend his hand to Gu Jinzhi.
Gu Jinzhi sat and rubbed him according to the acupoints for a while. His palms gradually became hot and the buzzing sound in his head gradually faded.
In the end, the headache was not completely eliminated, but it did not affect his normal going out.
Zhu Zhongjun wished he could give Gu Jinzhi a kiss.
Seeing that he was getting better, Gu Jinzhi got up and called the palace servants to come in to serve him in the dressing.
The two changed into formal clothes again.
The palace servant served morning meal.
After breakfast, Aunt Cheng came with her people.
Today is the return ceremony, and Aunt Cheng is still the ritual.
Before returning to the door, the Ministry of Rites and the Chief and Deputy Envoys delivered the ceremony to Gu's house in the morning.
Before returning to the door, Gu Jinzhi and Zhu Zhongjun went to salute the empress dowager and the emperor. In addition, they also had to go to the Eastern Palace to salute the prince.
Aunt Cheng first took Gu Jinzhi and Zhu Zhongjun to Kunning Palace, and then to the Taihe Palace.
After the ceremony, the two of them arrived at the East Palace with Aunt Cheng's leadership.
In the East Palace of the Prince, rituals and music welcomed him.
The prince was wearing the crown prince's crown robes and sat upright in the upright position, accepting the four worships of Zhu Zhongjun and Gu Jinzhi.
After the ceremony was completed, the prince rewarded Gu Jinzhi with gifts.
Gu Jinzhi accepted it and bowed two more times.
All etiquette is done.
The prince withdrew the seat and led Gu Jinzhi and Zhu Zhongjun to the side hall to speak.
"The sixth uncle is very happy." The prince smiled at Zhu Zhongjun in private, "This year, the sixth uncle has been happy. He has been healthy and has started a family and a career. My nephew congratulates him."
"Thank you, Prince." Zhu Zhongjun said.
"Uncle Six was a very good martial artsman when he was a child, and my nephew often heard from his masters. Now that Uncle Six has rarely had time to wait for his nephew to come here. When he has free time in the future, let's talk." The prince said again.
His tone was very mature, like an adult.
Compared with the child a year ago, the current prince has changed his face.
Zhu Zhongjun smiled and smiled. He respectfully accepted every word from the prince.
"...It's not too late, Aunt Liu is going back to the door. My nephew is not worthy of being Liu's uncle, Aunt Liu." The prince smiled and served tea.
Gu Jinzhi and Zhu Zhongjun stood up and said goodbye.
After coming out of the Eastern Palace, the prince's elephant had already heard at the Meridian Gate.
Zhu Zhongjun took Gu Jinzhi to the Meridian Gate and rode on the Elephant.
The elephant pulled by eight horses. After crossing the Imperial Bridge, they all the way to Chengtian Gate.
