Chapter 1714????The old father misses his daughter
At this time, it was late at night.
Most of the palaces in Daqi have turned out the lights.
Only the side pavilion of Concubine Qiao's Qiushui Palace still shone with a warm light.
Gu Yihan couldn't sleep, so he sat at the table and looked at some handwriting that Gu Nuoer had practiced before.
Suddenly, a cloak was placed on his body by two jade-white hands.
Gu Yihan turned around and saw that it was Concubine Qiao.
He pressed his eyebrows and smiled helplessly: "Is it too bright and disturbs you to sleep?"
Concubine Qiao, with her dark hair draped over her shoulders, took a round stool and sat next to Gu Yihan.
"No, because I can't sleep either, just like the emperor." Her eyes fell on Gu Nuo'er's handwriting, and she couldn't help but sigh: "I'm thinking about Nuo'er."
Gu Yihan's worries were revealed to her.
He didn't hide it, he just smiled, picked up a notebook, and looked through it with Concubine Qiao.
"Yayu, look, this is the calligraphy that Nuo'er practiced when she was three years old."
"I taught her how to write these strategies."
"I still remember that at that time, she was very eager to learn. If she encountered a word she didn't understand, she would ask questions on the spot."
"She is smart and learns everything quickly. She listens to our political discussions in the imperial study and can draw inferences from one instance to another."
"I still remember that every time she got tired from studying, she had to eat something sweet."
"She was still little at that time. She was just a little ball in my arms."
When Gu Yihan said this, he sighed, shook his head and chuckled: "In the blink of an eye, she grew up."
Concubine Qiao's beautiful eyes looked at the emperor in the light.
His eyes were full of the father's love for his daughter.
"Today is Nuo'er and Ji's birthday. If she were around, I would have given her the gift I had prepared solemnly."
"But now, she is still in the faraway country of Jin, and she doesn't know whether she is cold or hungry."
Concubine Qiao reached out and hugged Gu Yihan's shoulders.
She said warmly: "Didn't the emperor receive a letter from Nuoer a few days ago to report that he was safe?"
"She said in her letter that she was living a good life, and Marquis Yong Ye did not neglect to take care of her."
Gu Yihan nodded and said with emotion: "She rarely mentioned herself in her letters.
She wrote about the soldiers holding on in the wind and snow, and about their loyalty to help each other."
“And the kind-hearted and kind people I met along the way.
But more importantly, it was mentioned that Marquis Yongye led the troops well."
He pursed his thin lips and said, "I have counted that in one letter, there are twenty sentences from Nuo'er, and there are ten sentences that praise Yong Yehou."
I couldn't hear the joy and anger in Gu Yihan's words.
Concubine Qiao's long eyelashes lowered, and a slight smile appeared on her gorgeous porcelain white face.
"This is normal," she said comfortingly: "Nuo'er and Yong Yehou grew up together, not to mention that Yong Yehou is indeed outstanding in ability."
Speaking of this, Concubine Qiao said tentatively: "During the day today, General Bai's wife came into the palace to talk to my concubine."
"oh?
What did she say?
But because of the rumors that Yong Yehou wants to proclaim himself king?"
Gu Yihan raised his eyebrows.
The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, and Concubine Qiao has always known how to measure herself.
So she just led the conversation here and didn't point it out directly.
Now that Gu Yihan took the initiative to ask, Concubine Qiao continued.
"Exactly, Mrs. Bai was afraid of any repercussions. After entering the palace, she was vouching for Marquis Yong Ye, both inside and outside her words."
Concubine Qiao turned her beautiful eyes and sighed: "Although Yong Yehou is not the biological child of Bai Yi and his wife, they treat him really well."
"How pitiful the hearts of parents in the world are."
As a parent, she drew closer to Gu Yihan's thoughts on Bai Yi and his wife.
