That day Zhou Yi knelt on the rainy day for two full hours before being helped back home. When Gu Yu heard the news, her expression remained unchanged. After taking a few sips, she put down the spoon in her hand.
Seeing this, Ah Xi leaned forward to take it, and seeing that Gu Yu was interested, she lowered her head and said, "I heard that Master Zhou was still wearing the cloak of King Mobei when he left, but I don't know what the two are. relation."
what relationship
Of course it's a relationship.
Gu Yu lowered her eyes thoughtfully, thinking of Xie Xiao's pleading for the heroine in the garden that day, she paused in her heart.
But she was still a little too uncertain at this time whether the hero and heroine hooked up at this time. It is not written in detail in the plot, but it is said that in the day-to-day contact with the heroine, the male protagonist is more and more attracted by the female protagonist's forbearance and scheming character, and finally fell in love with each other for a long time.
Gu Yu took a few glances and didn't turn the page too much. Now after hearing her words, she just said in a flat tone: "Don't worry about her."
Gu Yu felt that no matter what, the hero and heroine would be together, and it was useless to care.
But in Ah Xi's ears, there was a change of meaning, thinking that the Empress Dowager didn't bother to listen to these trivial words, so she stopped talking immediately. After looking at the sky outside, he opened his mouth and changed the direction, and asked tentatively: "The weather outside is fine today, do you want the Queen Mother to go to the racecourse?"
Although the original owner was the Empress Dowager, she came from a family of generals and loved equestrianism. She often rode horses when she was in the Gu family. Seeing that she was always dull these days, Ah Xi couldn't help feeling a little worried, so she asked.
Gu Yu's fingertips paused when she heard the horse riding. If she was playing the piano or something else, she might reveal her secrets, but riding a horse is different.
In the first world, Gu Yu had never played with Bai Lang, and often went to the racecourse. After hearing Ah Xi's words, she pursed her lips, and suddenly felt a little itchy.
She paused to look out the window.
After yesterday's heavy rain, the weather outside today is rare and clear. The light comes in through the window screen, making the room brighter.
There was no entertainment in ancient times, and Gu Yu was actually a bit boring. The matter of riding a horse flashed through her mind. Gu Yu thought that there is no story about herself today, and it should be fine to go to the horse farm for a while.
After all, no matter what animal, there is a dream of riding on the head of others.
She frowned, and her expression relaxed slightly. Ah Xi already knew what she meant, and quickly asked someone to arrange it.
In half an hour, the racecourse had already been cleaned up, Gu Yu put on her strong clothes and tied the cloth belt around her wrists tightly.
Ah Xi brought a hair band at this time, Gu Yu shook her head after only looking at it.
"Although this court lady is caring, she doesn't have a good aesthetic." Gu Yu dared not think about what it would be like to have a goose head wrapped with a white tape.
She twitched the corner of her mouth, and the system couldn't help smiling when seeing the picture in her mind: "Have you forgotten, you are a human being now."
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Yu retorted firmly: "No, you can't look at the surface, so when you get to the bottom of it, I'm still a goose."
Gu Yu has always been proud of her swan status, and she will never admit it at this time. The system looked at her, chuckled and stopped rebutting.
It's just that Gu Yu's aesthetics is indeed better than that of court ladies.
The white dress showed a slender waist, and Gu Yu only had a simple hosta in her black hair. It was just such a simple dress, but people couldn't take their eyes off it.
Ah Xi blushed a little when she put on the belt, and felt that the Queen Mother was beautiful in every way. There are thousands of women in this world, although there are some who are extremely beautiful, but they are not even one-tenth of the temperament of the Empress Dowager.
After the belt was tied lightly, Ah Xi's eyes paused, and she couldn't help but look at her again, but met Gu Yu's calm gaze, and quickly lowered her head.
Gu Yu didn't know that she was shy, but thought she was scared by the original owner again, and couldn't help but want to complain, feeling that she was just like a villain in the palace.
When Ah Xi lowered her head, she paused with her fingertips, and then said lightly: "Let's go."
Ah Xi responded slightly, and put on the cloak for her again.
Xie Xiao was originally hunting in the hunting ground in the palace, but at noon, some court ladies and eunuchs hurriedly cleared out the nearby horse farm, which made him feel a little strange.
"What's going on here?" He stopped a palace man who was saluting and asked.
Although the racecourse is used by nobles in the palace, it has never been so exciting. Xie Xiao thought it was His Majesty who was coming here, but after asking, he found out it was the Queen Mother.
The palace maid was trembling and frightened by his evil spirit, so she could only truthfully tell the news that Gu Yu was coming to ride a horse at noon.
Xie Xiao raised his eyebrows, he didn't expect Gu Yu to like riding horses.
He thought that a lady from a famous family like her should be fond of writing. Few women would like to ride horses, Xie Xiao was a little surprised, but in the end, thinking of the Gu family's iron cavalry being famous in the Jin Dynasty, those strange things seemed a bit fussy.
After the maid finished speaking, she stopped speaking, afraid to offend the handsome King of Hades, she didn't dare to raise her head.
Xie Xiao didn't care, but after hearing this, he casually waved his hand to make the frightened palace maid back down.
He put down the longbow in his hand, glanced at the horse farm next to him, with a smile on his lips, and suddenly became curious.
Gu Yu didn't know that Xie Xiao was here too. Just after entering the racecourse, the horse trainer brought in the docile mare that was/carefully/carefully selected before.
"Queen Mother, this horse is a good tribute horse from the Western Regions. It is docile and suitable for women to ride." He leaned over and said.
The horse led by the rein lowered its head, as if responding to the trainer's words, it was docile and without any temper. Gu Yu only took one look and frowned:
"Is there anything else?"
Because of her fairy body, she has excellent physical functions, so she is also good at riding horses. When we were at the racecourse with Bai Lang, we had no taboos, and we always chose the most difficult one.
Gu Yu glanced at such a docile horse in front of her, and felt that riding it was not enjoyable at all.
The horse trainer was a little embarrassed, and suddenly heard a voice behind him:
"Although there are many good horses in this racecourse, they are all raised and tame. If the queen mother wants a strong one, why not try my horse."
There was a bright smile in that voice, Gu Yu turned her head and saw Xie Xiao who was leading the horse walking over.
"Why is he here?" Gu Yu was a little puzzled, and couldn't help asking the system in her heart.
She thought of her anger, and felt a little helpless, no matter how she went, she could meet the male lead.
When Mr. System heard her question, he just smiled and said: "You may not have read the plot carefully. Xie Xiao is a king with a different surname bestowed by the former emperor. He once promised that he could enter and leave the palace at will. It's a place Xie Xiao often goes to."
…
All right, let him go first if he comes first, not the horse you mentioned just now
After getting the explanation, Gu Yu glanced at Xie Xiao, and saw him bend down and salute.
Xie Xiao is always used to wearing red clothes on weekdays, and today is no exception. The scarlet robe made the evil spirit between his brows lessened a bit, and on the contrary, there was more of a young man's smile.
Gu Yu paused, a little hesitant, but the horse behind Xie Xiao seemed to have recognized her. At this moment, he took a few steps forward and bit Gu Yu's sleeve.
Seeing the beauty with a cold temperament being embarrassed by a horse, this scene made Xie Xiao's smile more real.
Gu Yu frowned, "What is King Mobei laughing at?" She asked suddenly.
Gu Yu thought he was laughing at her own riding skills, so she didn't dare to ride this horse, her voice became a little colder.
Stupid human, no matter where she is, her reputation as the number one warrior among geese cannot be questioned!
Xie Xiao seemed to know what she was angry with, and leaned slightly: "You don't have to think too much about it, it's just that this horse is so close to a person for the first time, and I'm just a little surprised."
What he said was high-sounding, but Gu Yu could clearly see the playfulness in his eyes.
The original owner hated being underestimated the most in his life, and his heart became colder when he saw this.
Ah Xi looked at Gu Yu's eyes, and knew what she was thinking, just as she was about to persuade her, Gu Yu said in a cold voice: "Since the king of Mobei said so, it would be a pity that I don't ride this horse. "
She waved her hand to stop Ah Xi, who was about to go forward, and reached out to take the whip.
Xie Xiao looked at her neat movements, she looked like Lian Jiazi, his eyes paused. Gu Yu didn't look at him again, but just got on the horse and left straight away.
Gu Yu didn't know how the original owner's equestrian skills were. But she seems to be very talented in this area. She was able to ride very well after only learning for less than a month.
Now he has no scruples in the racecourse.
Gu Yu lowered her eyebrows, and as soon as she whipped her, the white horse galloped away.
The beauty in the arena was dressed in white clothes, and when she raised her body slightly, she was even more amazing. And that fiery Dawan horse seemed to be tamed under her hands, running according to the master's command.
Rao Xie Xiao expected that Gu Yu's riding skills were not bad, so he couldn't help admiring at this moment.
Gu Yu, who was finally able to experience the feeling of running wildly on the grassland, was extremely happy. While showing off to the system in her heart, she maintained her image so that she would not get too complacent.
But somehow the news got out.
Fu Jinming was correcting the memorial in the palace, but he saw a few whispers from the palace people around him, and he was a little embarrassed after stepping back.
He only glanced at it and didn't pay attention to it, but he frowned when he saw that the palace servant who was serving him became more and more uneasy.
"What's going on?" He asked lightly.
Fu Jinming has a peaceful temperament and doesn't get angry very often, but no one dares to deny that he is a qualified emperor. That is to say, no matter how peaceful Fu Jinming is, he can always decide the life and death of others with one sentence.
After hearing the words, the monitor hesitated for a while, but knelt down on the ground.
"The servant heard that the imperial physician said that Mr. Zhou had a severe wind and cold after last night, and now he can no longer go to the ground. It is the servant and others who have taken care of him badly. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
Ever since Zhou Yi was selected, Fu Jinming has always treated her differently. It is clear that he is a third-rank official, but he is allowed to discuss important matters in the court, and he is also allowed to stay in the palace at night.
Even though he was embarrassed by the Queen Mother yesterday, His Majesty has rewarded a lot of things in the past. Treating a courtier like this is considered excellent.
People in the palace are always driven by the wind, so naturally they are a little more careful with Zhou Yi.
His Majesty, who was afraid of being offended by her incident of the wind and cold, was worried and angry, and the eunuch's tone became a little more panicked.
The hall was quiet. After these words, the eunuch raised his head cautiously, wanting to see His Majesty's expression, but only saw that his face was calm, and he didn't show any emotion after hearing about Zhou Yi's illness.
He was a little surprised, His Majesty has always been special to Mr. Zhou, why today... Could it be that he misread it
Just as he was thinking in his heart, he heard Fu Jinming on the seat say calmly: "Just tell the imperial physician about this matter." He paused and then said: "If Mr. Zhou is sick and homesick for a long time, you can get someone to escort you. "
What His Majesty said is really confusing.
The eunuch paused in his heart, wondering whether His Majesty really valued Mr. Zhou or not. Since he didn't care about her injuries, why did he offer grace to escort her home
He thought in his heart, but still bent down and responded.
Just when he was about to step down, he heard Fu Jinming suddenly ask: "Didn't the queen mother also suffer from some wind and cold a few days ago, how is it today?"
This sentence made everyone in the hall stiffen. No one thought that His Majesty would suddenly ask about the Empress Dowager. The news just received made everyone hesitate.
His Majesty and the Empress Dowager never had much contact except when they greeted each other every month. And His Majesty's dislike for the Empress Dowager is well known throughout the palace, but today His Majesty actually asked about the Empress Dowager's condition.
This made everyone who knew where Gu Yu had gone feel a little guilty.
The two eunuchs below looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
Fu Jinming didn't know what happened to him just now, so he suddenly asked about Gu Yu. But since he had already asked the question, it was hard to go back and cover it up.
He paused with his hand in criticizing the memorial. He was waiting for the answer, but found that the eunuch below was a little afraid to speak at this moment. He couldn't help frowning: "What's wrong with the Queen Mother?"
The two gritted their teeth, and after seeing Fu Jinming's slightly cold face, they finally stepped forward: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother's cold has improved a bit today, but"
He paused, took a careful look at His Majesty, and then continued: "It's just that the weather is fine today, and now I'm riding horses with King Mobei at the racecourse."
Riding horses with King Mobei at the racecourse.
This sentence made Fu Jinming pause with his fingertips, and a drop of ink fell on the paper.
