Gu Yu was standing in the courtyard when she suddenly felt a pain in her heart, she couldn't help but frowned slightly. The pain came and went quickly, and before Gu Yu figured out what it was like, the pain disappeared again.
She put down the teacup in her hand and touched her heart unconsciously.
"System, what's going on?" Gu Yu asked from the bottom of her heart.
She didn't suspect that the original owner had any old illnesses. After all, the current body was her own. Except for the scar left by the ascension, she had always been healthy and had almost no illness.
But the pain just now, Gu Yu can be sure that it is not an illusion, she frowned slightly worried.
Could it be that Tiandao felt that the few slaps on him were not enjoyable, and he made up for it later
Gu Yu thought uncertainly, the worry in her eyes was almost materialized. Seeing it, Xie Xiao thought she was thinking of her father, and she couldn't let it go, so she couldn't help comforting her: "Don't think about it, Queen Mother, Xie thinks that no matter what, General Gu hopes that you can let go of those worries in the end and live a better life. .”
Although he promised Gu Yu revenge, Xie Xiao had no choice but to comfort Gu Yu when facing the dead.
It was already night, and the lanterns in the small courtyard shone slightly, shining on the man's handsome face, which was a little less coquettish, but more sentimental.
Gu Yu paused in her heart, knowing that he had misunderstood. But it's hard to say what happened just now, so I can only follow his words, lower my eyes and say: "Thank you, my lord, I'm fine."
Her voice was indifferent, Xie Xiao looked at her, and was about to say something when he suddenly heard a noise outside. Ah Xi, who was in the front hall, put down his things and ran in.
"It's not good, Queen Mother. I went out to fetch water just now, and saw a group of imperial guards coming to the alley and searching around with portraits. They will come here soon."
After she finished speaking, she looked at Gu Yu in shock.
Gu Yu's heart was also trembling, she didn't expect Fu Jinming to send someone over so soon. Her face was slightly cold, and she was thinking about what to do, when she heard Xie Xiao say: "The Queen Mother, don't panic, this disguise technique is not so easy to see through, even if they bring portraits, they won't be able to recognize us for a while."
"However, there are just three of us, and the scope of the target is too small, which may be a little suspicious."
His eyes were dark, and when Gu Yu looked at him, he said decisively: "Before the imperial army came, I pretended to be a husband and wife with the Queen Mother, and Ah Xi continued to pretend to be a maidservant. This messed up our identities, and our appearance was different. You can muddle through."
He arranged it properly. Although Gu Yu was a little sensitive about the identity of the husband and wife, she also knew that the matter was urgent. This was also an expedient measure. So he also nodded: "Your King"
When the prince was about to speak, Gu Yu saw the faint disapproval in Xie Xiao's eyes, reacted, hesitated for a moment, and then changed his words softly: "Your Majesty."
For a high-altitude flower like Gu Yu, it is a bit shameful to say these two words. Even when the late emperor was around, even though she loved her like a jewel, she only followed the rules to call her Your Majesty, and she had never been so intimate.
This is the first time, facing others like this.
She tried her best to maintain a proud and indifferent look on her face, but the slightly red tips of her ears made people smile knowingly.
Xie Xiao was just joking, but he didn't expect to see Gu Yu like this.
Her appearance is rare in the world, under such snow-colored skin, there is only a little blush, which is already exciting. Xie Xiao suddenly understood Fu Jinming.
A beauty like Gu Yu, although it hurts people like ice and snow, can also be as clear as water. As soon as Xiao Xiao saw it, he was haunted by dreams. If you get along with her for a long time, you will definitely find it difficult to hold on to yourself.
Xie Xiao felt hot in his heart, but his gaze still endured. He thought of a title he had inadvertently searched for when he was inquiring about the Queen Mother's preferences, suppressed those dark thoughts, and said with a smile: "Yu Niang said it well."
The name of Yuniang was called A Xixi, and she couldn't help being surprised.
Yuniang was called by the lady in her boudoir when she was not out of the court, and no one mentioned it after entering the palace. How could the prince know
Just as she was thinking, someone knocked on the door.
Gu Yu nodded towards Ah Xi, and Ah Xi understood, she asked who it was, and walked to the front to open the door.
Gu Yu was held by Xie Xiao's hand and lay on the couch pretending to be sick. Both of them held their hearts and listened to the movement outside.
As soon as the imperial guards came in, they took a closer look at Ah Xi's face, and after confirming that it was not the person in the painting, they asked, "How many people live in this yard, and they all came out."
Ah Xi shook his head, a little embarrassed: "The hostess is sick, and the master is staying with her in the bedroom."
Normally, everyone turned a blind eye to this kind of private house matter, but now that the queen mother is missing, the matter is of great importance, and the few people who searched became cautious, looked at each other and said: "Since your master is inconvenient Come out, then I will be offended."
He pushed Ah Xi away and walked straight inside.
The voice of the soldiers outside came through the corridor, Gu Yu hesitated slightly, and saw Xie Xiao suddenly turn over on the couch.
Under the red tent, the two were almost face to face. Gu Yu subconsciously wanted to push it open, and the next moment, she heard the sound of the door being pushed open.
She clenched her palms tightly, closed her eyes, felt a stream of hot air passing by her ears, and heard the man apologize in a low voice: "The empress dowager offended."
The hot air streaked along the end of the eyes and fell on the slender snow neck, with some passion/desire/ in the gentleness.
As soon as the leading guards opened the door, they saw this lively scene.
The man completely blocked the woman's body, only revealing a plain face. The leading imperial guard paused in his heart, somehow feeling that the woman felt a little familiar.
This person had once seen the Queen Mother in the palace, and when he heard the voice, Xie Xiao knew who it was.
It would be easy to fool other people who came here, but these people had worked in Zhanghua Palace before, and they knew Gu Yu better than others. As long as there is a trace of a tell, it is possible to be recognized.
What's more, although she changed her appearance, Gu Yu's cold demeanor was hard to hide.
Xie Xiao's heart sank slightly, and he had no choice but to do so.
While signaling with his eyes, he raised his head to deal with the movement outside.
The leader was wondering, when he saw the man in the underwear look up, he was startled at first, and then smiled awkwardly: "This... how many military masters are these?"
If the person below is the Queen Mother, is this person the King of Mobei
The leader was frightened by his guess, and suddenly felt that the previous familiarity was superfluous. After the man said awkwardly, he lightly took out the portrait: "Have you seen these three people before?"
Xie Xiao glanced at it, then shook his head: "I haven't seen it before, did Mr. Jun find the wrong place?"
Seeing that they didn't know what to ask, the forbidden soldiers frowned and didn't speak any more. She put away the portrait and turned to leave. Gu Yu was relieved until the sound of footsteps left.
She almost thought that she couldn't be fooled just now, but she didn't expect Xie Xiao to have this trick.
After the man left, she stretched out her hand and pushed the man on her body, indicating that he could go down.
Ah Xi went outside to see off those forbidden soldiers, there are only two people left in this bedroom. Xie Xiao pursed his lips, and suddenly said: "Does the queen mother feel bored?"
Gu Yu didn't understand what he meant by this, and then, the mask on his face was taken off. Suddenly confronting each other with their true faces made Gu Yu feel a little uncomfortable, especially when they were so close.
She frowned slightly, and said in a cold voice: "Thanks to King Mobei just now, but the prince can get up now."
Her crow-feather-like black hair spread out slightly, which further matched her snow-white complexion. Because of the intimate action just now, some snowy necks with hickey marks were exposed, Xie Xiao's eyes dimmed.
But he didn't listen to her words, but shook his head and said in a deep voice: "Yu Niang should call me Husband."
After he said such a title and posture, even he was taken aback for a moment, and then laughed.
If Gu Yu still can't see that he is playing tricks on her at this moment, she is really stupid.
She pushed Xie Xiao away, sat up, and said in a cold voice: "King Mobei, please respect yourself. Although you have fallen into this situation, I am not a person who will be bullied at will."
When Gu Yu said this, her eyes were cold and her tone was solemn. The distance that was so hard to get in before seems to be farther at this moment.
Xie Xiao sighed, put away his smile, and didn't care about her attitude, but said: "I just think that the Queen Mother is in a bad mood, and I wanted to tease the Queen Mother, but I didn't expect to make the Queen Mother angry. It's my fault."
He bowed down to make amends.
Gu Yu was full of anger and couldn't express it, knowing that if he was really punished for this matter, it would be a big fuss. He could only swallow his anger and complain to the system in his heart.
Xie Xiao bowed and stood, Ah Xi sent people away, and was a little strange when he came in.
"Queen, what's the matter?" she asked suspiciously.
Gu Yu pursed her lips and glanced at him, before finally saying, "It's nothing."
Xie Xiao got up when he heard this.
Because of what happened just now, Gu Yu felt it was a bit strange to stay in this room any longer, so she said to Ah Xi: "I don't feel sleepy yet, you can go for a walk with me."
Her voice was cold, Ah Xi wanted to say something, but seeing the Queen Mother's expression, she swallowed it immediately, and could only nod her head.
She didn't say a word to Xie Xiao the whole time, and Xie Xiao looked relaxed and didn't care. It wasn't until the two of them left that he slowly lowered his eyes while rubbing his fingertips.
No one knew that before the officers and soldiers came in just now, he almost made a fake show.
Gu Yu's face with her eyes closed because she couldn't refuse flashed before her eyes, and finally changed into a bright color under her snowy neck.
Xie Xiao clenched his palms tightly, feeling a sense of urgency for the first time. He wanted to pull Fu Jinming down from the throne faster.
—Just to get Gu Yu.
