"Everyone get up, Chun Feng, send the princess back to the palace, without my permission, she is not allowed to leave the palace for the time being."
Court Lady Gu had thought that Shen Zhongbai's world was all about exploitation, but she hadn't thought that he was actually still good to her sister.
"I'm sorry everyone, just now SiYin gave you all trouble, I will be strict in the future, however, today to come, I have a thing I want to inquire with this Gusu Ran son, I don't know if it's convenient?" Shen Zhongbai for that painting, the only clue is Gusu Ran, out of come to find Gusu Ran, he has no other way.
Court Lady Gu was shocked in her heart, she had been afraid that Shen Zhongbai would top herself because of the painting, she didn't know whether he came to find herself this time because he wanted to draw her in, or whether he wanted to ask questions about the painting.
"Ahem, Sherbrooke is free, if it's not convenient for us to listen to the conversation, I'll go prepare an elegant room for the Emperor." Gusu Rang naturally didn't know the mystery in that painting, and only thought that it was because Shen Zhongbai noticed Gusu Ran as a person at today's Chamber of Commerce that he came.
When Court Lady Gu and Shen Zhongbai entered the elegant room, they were really uncomfortable, they were already disgusted with the person in front of them, and now they had to use another person's identity to communicate with him, it was really a bit weird.
"Your Majesty, if you have any questions, you might as well just say so."
Court Lady Gu really felt a bit uncomfortable, she felt that when she was in front of Shen Zhongbai, she always felt as if she was on the verge of being seen through, and coupled with that Princess Siyin just now, she really felt that the method that they had discussed earlier didn't seem to be very effective.
"Mr. Gusu is a talented man, do you have a marriage partner?"
"Ah ... ah?" Gu court ladies nervous half a day, how did not think of Shen Zhongbai, open surprisingly will ask such a question, their own appearance, looks at most is eighteen or nineteen years old, according to the man's age, should not have promised what marriage, how suddenly brought up the topic? "No, brother said, the grass people are still young, such a thing is better to say after a few years."
"I now have a chance, although my sister is a bit bratty and capricious, but the bones are still very good, have been sixteen years old, has not yet chosen a good son-in-law, I do not know Gusu Prince on the Siyin, can have any comments?"
How could Court Lady Gu dare to say that she had a problem with this princess? But listening to Shen Zhongbai's words, why did he seem to be recruiting himself as a sister-in-law?
"Your Majesty, how dare the grass people have any opinions about the princess, although the princess is a bit capricious, but it also looks really ... cute." Court Lady Gu simply couldn't think of any other adjectives to describe Shen Shiyin, and couldn't refute Shen Zhongbai's face, so she could only say this.
"Then since Mr. Gusu does not have any opinion about Siyin, then I see that this marriage can be settled like this, right, I will return to the palace immediately, and immediately give the holy decree, you prepare a little bit, I choose a good time and auspicious day, the two of you will be married."
"Marriage!"
Shen Zhongbai walked out of the room with a smile on his face, followed by Gu Qiang, who had a bitter look on her face, and although Gusu Liang didn't really know what was going on, he greeted him with a smile, "Your Majesty, take your time."
Gu Huai'an was most worried about his sister, watching Shen Zhongbai walk out some distance away, he hurriedly went up to ask Court Lady Gu, "What did he say to you just now?"
Gu Qiang court lady had not fully reacted until now, and could only open her mouth in a mute voice, "He wants to recruit me as the emperor's son-in-law ..."
A few people counted a thousand times, thought Shen Zhongbai will definitely come over to pull Gusu Ran, but did not think, Shen Zhongbai this time the chess, the next is really wonderful, do not give Gusu Ran an official position, directly recruited him as a horse harnessed by the side of the emperor's side, but to save the trouble.
"How did you answer?"
"Naturally, I refused, only he didn't give me any chance to speak at all, he said that as soon as he returns to the palace, he's going to issue a holy decree right away, what can we do now?" Only then did Court Lady Gu regain a little bit of consciousness, and hurriedly grabbed Gu Huai'an's sleeve, "Brother, why don't you make me that kind of medicine to fake my death, and let's continue with a different identity?"
Shen Zhongbai wouldn't have promised his sister to so many people, would he?
"This won't work." Gusu Liang sighed, "This may not be a bad thing, at least you can go to the palace in name only this time, you can also make good relations with the ministers in the court, this may be an opportunity?"
Court Lady Gu cried out, "What chance? What if they find out I'm a woman after the wedding, won't all my identity be exposed?"
"No, you can't run, you have to agree to this matter, but it must be a conditional agreement." Gu Huai'an also felt that Gusu Liang's words were right, if he missed this opportunity, he didn't know how much longer he would have to wait.
After a while, Qi Bai entered the Listening Pavilion, and seeing the three of them all looking worried, he hurriedly came up, "What's wrong, what happened again?"
"Nothing major, I'll talk to you later, what did you just go for? Why did you go for such a long time?" It was with great difficulty that Court Lady Gu slowly calmed down, looking at the seemingly agitated Qi Bai in front of her, she spoke breathlessly.
"An envoy from Southern Qi, I heard that yo are here to make peace and let Bei'an Kingdom marry a princess." Qi Bai seems to be very excited, drinking the tea on the table in one go and looking at Court Lady Gu.
"That's not really good news ah, the best news for me right now is probably you telling me that the Emperor has decided to speak ill of Shen Siyin, otherwise all news is not good news for me right now."
"No, no, no, I'm not talking about this, what I'm going to say is, just now I saw in the street, the envoys of Southern Qi, I see this somewhat familiar, I didn't look more, I didn't expect that the envoy on the horse, after meeting my eyes, made a gesture at me, that's a gesture only the guards under the king know, I think, that might be the king's people! "
"What? Are you serious?" Gu court ladies heard this, immediately there is no way to calm down, so long, they have not been able to get the news of Shen Qianshan, chasing the wind has also been looking for, there has been no clues, if what Qi Bai said is really not wrong, then the immediate thing is really a gesture with him, maybe that envoy will know the whereabouts of Shen Qianshan.
"Of course it's true, his movements are not large, but I can see that he's making his identity known to me." Qi Bai was half-excited, maybe after making contact with that person, he could even get news of the king.
Gusu Ran heard the news, heart also feel happy, but did not expect, a turn of the evening, Shen Zhongbai sent people sent invitations, the next day's evening, will be in the palace banquet South Qi ambassadors, but also invited Gusu Ran.
"This can be considered a good opportunity, right, take this opportunity so you can go and ask that so-called Southern Qi envoy if he really knows the whereabouts of the king." Gu Huai'an helped Qi Bai to prepare a human/skin mask, after all, Gu Huai'an and Gusu Liang both don't often enter the palace, so there's no way to protect Gu Qiang's court ladies all the time, there can only be Qi Bai to do this thing, and by the way, it can also help Gu Qiang's court ladies to confirm whether that Southern Qi envoy is actually a retainer of Shen Qian's mountain or not.
After the dark night got the help of Su Jingxian, smoothly with the identity of the South Qi envoy to the North An's Kyoto, had wanted to take advantage of the time when there are few people around to go to the listening pavilion, but did not expect, just arrived in the Kyoto, saw in the street wandering around the Qibai, Qibai has been looking at their own, their own also gave him a hand gesture, hope that he can read, although has not yet seen the royal consort, but it should be very soon to be able to see it! It.
Gu Qiang court saw this marriage is not to push off, can only try to delay time, after all, hours, if really like Shen Zhongbai, so anxious, I'm afraid it will be a joke, so they can borrow the need to prepare time such as this argument, to muddle through for a while, push seems to be unable to push off.
"If you claim to be sick, you may still be able to hold out for a while, and we will also have the opportunity to be able to develop our own forces in the dynasty, your identity, although it is a bit embarrassing, but it should still be more important for our plan, tonight you will be able to show off your skills in the banquet in the middle of the palace, and if there is a chance for you to be able to get close to that Southern Qi envoy, it will also be convenient for us to If you have the chance to get close to that Southern Qi envoy, it will also be convenient for us to investigate the whereabouts of the Prince.
Gu court ladies have no choice but to agree, Gu Huai'an I'm afraid that he has any problems, before leaving, constantly staring at her should pay attention to things, Gusu Liang also taught her a lot, but the most important thing is still to look at the Gu court ladies themselves, in that banquet will be how to play.
Qi Bai put on a human/skin mask, and also purposely padded his shoes a bit higher under his feet, and after changing into a dark blue dress, the whole person appeared completely different from before, and even Court Lady Gu felt that she couldn't recognize him.
Compared to Gu Qiang's worries, Qi Bai was very excited, remembering the ambassador's gestures, Qi Bai was more and more sure that the person must be the king's side, there will be no mistake.
Nanqi and Dongliang is not the same, Dongliang is considered a small country, to be able to go to war are let a person feel a little incredible, not to mention is also and the North An army stalemate so many days, Nanqi, on the contrary, has always been and the North An peace and quiet, that is, the two sides are shackled to each other, so the two sides have not been hands.
So this South Qi came ambassadors, North Anguo really is to be a grand reception, which set up a banquet in the hall, the civil and military officials gathered, is not the general ambassadors can have the treatment.
Gusu Ran's identity is still a commoner after all, although Shen Zhongbai has drawn up a good marriage granting decree, but after all, it has not yet been sent down, we all still do not know, Gusu Ran can not be too late to arrive, early in the big point of the doorway waiting, fortunately, the weather has been gradually warming up, otherwise I do not know how long to freeze on it.
