Yang Yichui laughed and clapped his hands.

Yang Liu'er came in, gave her a blessing, and then began to present music.

Gu She left his seat and helped Tao Mo up. Tao Mo didn't dare to get up at first, and peeked at the emperor, seeing that the emperor was looking at them, but there was some resentment in his eyes.

His heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly understood why Yang Yichui dared to let his daughter, who was already married, come out to perform. He remembered that many people had said that it was a broken sleeve today.

He let Gu She help him up and led him to the right hand side. Tao Mo didn't have a seat, so Gu She also stood.

Gu She's appearance is handsome, so he can't help but think about it. Why did the emperor let him return to Beijing as a seventh-rank sesame official? Is it because he returned to Beijing that Gu She also returned to Beijing

He wasn't worried about Gu She's change of heart, Gu She was not the kind of person who would change his mind, and besides, the emperor was the same as Gu She, he seemed to be the kind who refused to suffer.

But the emperor is the emperor after all, and it couldn't be easier for him to separate them.

As if seeing his worry, Gu She stretched out his hand, took his hand, and held it tightly.

He turned his head and forced himself to smile at Gu She.

Yang Liuer's song felt like it took a long time, and Tao Mo felt his whole body go numb until Yang Liuer ended.

Before she left, she glanced at them intentionally or unintentionally, and Tao Mo's heart became colder, because Yang Liuer's eyes were clearly worried.

After Yang Liuer retreated, Lin Yuan came in.

It was not Sun Kuan but Lin Yuan who came, and Tao Mo understood better: Although Sun Kuan's rhythm was better than Lin Yuan's, he was not married and was young; although Lin Yuan's rhythm was not as good as Sun Kuan's, he already had a child.

Tao Mo's heart sank to the bottom, and his whole body felt cold.

After finally surviving until Lin Yuan finished playing, the emperor raised his hand to stop Yang Yihammer, and said to Gu She: "I really miss Xianzhi's piano sound."

Gu She looked at Tao Mo and said calmly, "I swear, I will only play the piano for one person in this life."

Tao Mo was taken aback, why did Gu She ever swear such an oath

Gu She just smiled.

The emperor narrowed his eyes: "I have official business to give Tao Aiqing orders, Yang Aiqing should step down first."

Gu She's eyes turned cold: "Your Majesty is wise, since he ascended the throne, our dynasty's national power has been rising year after year. Therefore, at the beginning of this month, Tao County Magistrate specially told the grassroots that he wished the emperor's body to be in good health and our dynasty's prosperity. Now that the emperor came to Danyang in person, there must be someone there. It is an extremely important matter related to the fate of the country, and since it is inconvenient for the grassroots to attend, they will leave first."

The emperor's face froze: "How do you know what I said is not serious?"

Gu She said calmly: "I said that what the emperor said must be a very important matter."

The emperor turned blue and waved his hand.

Gu She and Yang Yichui withdrew.

Only the emperor and Tao Mo were left in the hall, and Tao Mo's heart was pounding like a drum.

Tao Mo knew that the current emperor was a wise emperor. But Ming Jun is also a human being, and he also has love, desire, and hatred, Gu She is so outstanding...

He was thinking wildly, the emperor said slowly: "Tao Mo listen!"

He hurried to the middle of the hall, threw off his robe and knelt down.

"It has been found out that the criminal minister Huang Guangde once handed over a pregnant concubine of King Chang to Kuang Zhengyi to hide. Although Kuang Zhengyi is dead, he has lived in Danyang for eighteen years. Tao Mo, the county magistrate of Danyang, will immediately search for Chang. The posthumous son of the king must let the descendants of the royal family recognize their ancestors and return to their ancestors!"

Tao Mo thought to himself: What the emperor said is indeed a very important matter.

He hurriedly leaned over and said, "This humble minister leads the decree!"

The emperor sighed: "Get up!"

Tao Mo stood up, and couldn't hear the emperor's words for a while, so he couldn't help but look up, and saw the emperor looking at him with probing eyes.

Startled, he quickly lowered his head again.

"Head up."

He had to look up again.

The emperor said sadly: "You have a very good relationship with chords."

Tao Mo felt a burst of sweetness in his heart, thinking that the emperor has just arrived, so he saw it? But since the emperor was pleased with Gu She, he didn't want to make it public, so he could only add ambiguously: "Yes."

The emperor smiled: "Don't be cautious, you see, when you hear the word "Xianzhi", the corners of your brows and eyes are full of joy, and you still have to pretend."

"Ah!" Tao Mo felt ashamed in embarrassment.

The emperor patted Tao Mo on the shoulder: "At first glance, you are an honest person, and you must have been bullied by Xianzhi."

Tao Mo shook his head quickly: "Xianzhi never bullied me."

"Oh?" The emperor seemed not to believe it, "Could it be that you bullied Xianzhi?"

Tao Mo was puzzled: "Neither."

The emperor laughed loudly, and patted Tao Mo's shoulder again: "Let's have dinner together later."

Tao Mo opened the door of the hall, saluted Yang Yichui, and said, "The emperor delivered the meal."

Seeing his calm expression, Gu She asked worriedly, "What did he say?"

Tao Mo glanced back, and said in a low voice, "It's business, I'll tell you when I get back."

Gu She was skeptical.

When we got back to the county office, it was already dark.

When Lao Tao and the others asked, Tao Mo said happily, "Actually, the emperor is very kind and approachable."

"What have you been doing? Why have you been with me all day?"

Tao Mo thought about it for a while, as if he didn't do anything

"Just chatting."

Lao Tao, Master Jin, and Hao Guozi looked at each other.

Just as he was about to take a rest, the night watchman came to report: "Lin Zhengyong, Mr. Lin is here."

Tao Mo was shocked, he came back very late, Lin Zhengyong came at this time...

Lin Zhengyong also had a hurried expression on his face, and cut straight to the point as soon as he sat down: "I'm here this time, because Young Master Gu Shegu entrusted me to propose marriage."

Tao Mo looked shocked, he and Gu She saw each other every day, and they hadn't been separated for an hour, why didn't they say something in advance, and suddenly called someone to propose marriage

And according to the custom, once they talk about their marriage, they have to wait until they get married before they can meet. Gu She had discussed with him on the way back to Danyang, saying that he should ask someone to talk about marriage two or three days before getting married, so as not to see each other for a long time, which would only cause lovesickness.

Could it be that the date of getting married should be brought forward

Seeing that he was only concerned with astonishment, Lin Zhengyong coughed lightly, and continued, "I wonder if Mr. Tao would like it?"

Tao Mo said blankly, "Of course I would."

Lin Zhengyong stood up immediately: "Okay, I'll reply to Mr. Gu and ask him to come and hire me."

Only then did Tao Mo come to his senses: "Mr. Lin has worked hard."

Lin Zhengyong was not polite and left in a hurry.

Just as Tao Mo took off his visitor's clothes and was about to rest, someone knocked on the door again.

This time it was Yu Ming, who brought a big car with two big boxes and one small box.

"Young Master Gu asked me to come and hire you."

Tao Mo was stunned.

Seeing this, Lao Tao said: "Sleep peacefully, young master. You can't see Mr. Gu, but I can. I'll ask him."

Yu Ming asked, "What does Steward Tao want to ask?"

Old Tao said, "Why are you in such a hurry?"

Yu Ming smiled and sighed: "There are so many dreams in the long night!"

Old Tao was thoughtful.

Yu Ming said again: "Master Tao is not in a hurry to rest, Gu Xiaojia will come to ask for a date later."

Tao Mo nodded: "Okay."

Gu Xiaojia wrote April 26 on the post asking for a date.

Tao Mo was stunned: "Isn't this tomorrow?"

Gu Xiaojia nodded: "It's tomorrow. The wedding dress hasn't been embroidered yet, and the embroiderer will stay up all night tonight, and deliver it in person when the young master picks up the bride tomorrow morning."

He paused, and then said: "Try to get up early tomorrow morning, if Eunuch Huang comes, please come out through the back door, Master Tao, and don't go with Eunuch Huang."

Tao Mo nodded: "Okay."

When he first came back, he was very sleepy and just wanted to fall down and sleep.

After such a toss, he couldn't fall asleep.

It was Lao Tao who had experience, poured him two glasses of wine, and fell asleep.

In the dream, the emperor appeared at the wedding hall, and a group of guards pulled Gu She away, and he chased after him anxiously, but he couldn't catch up.

Before dawn, he was woken up by Lao Tao and Hao Guozi, who fetched a bucket of water for him to take a bath. He just wanted to say: Didn't you just wash it last night? Suddenly realizing something, his face turned red instantly.

After hastily washing and changing into clean clothes, he was about to leave through the front door when Lao Tao called him: "Go through the back door."

Tao Mo paused, thinking about the things in the dream, he felt a little angry: "I'm going to go through the front door! Let the emperor see, I'm the one who wants to marry Xianzhi!"

He seldom spoke in such a tone, and Lao Tao was stunned, but he didn't say anything, and drove the car to follow.

On the car were still the two big and one small boxes that Gu She sent yesterday, and they hadn't been opened yet.

As soon as he left the county yamen, he saw Gu She riding a horse in a red dress from a distance. Horses are fast, people are peerless, and Tao Mo is crazy.

Watching him come over in a daze, dismounted, smiled, took a box from Gu Xiaojia and handed it to Tao Mo: "I'll pick you up."

Tao Mo took the box, but still only cared about Gu She.

Gu She came over with his ear: "Enter the bridal chamber and watch slowly."

Tao Mo's face was red, and he looked around for a carriage.

Gu She grabbed him: "What are you looking for? Hurry up and change, I'll wait here."

It was only then that Tao Mo remembered that Gu She was here to pick up the bride, and when he thought of his stupidity just now, he felt ashamed.

He ran back to the bedroom, opened the box, and found a wedding dress inside. Lilies are embroidered with gold thread on the red brocade, which is exactly the same as the one on Gu She.

Before he could take a closer look, he changed into his wedding dress and ran out. Just about to get into the carriage, Gu She asked leisurely: "Do you want to ride a horse?"

Tao Mo didn't think about it: "Think!"

Lao Tao looked at the two of them riding together, a pair of Bi people, his eyes immediately became moist.

Tao Mo nestled in Gu She's arms, thinking to himself: As long as such a good Xianzhi can be with him, what Gu Xiang said is nothing? !

There was no one on the street in the early morning, so Gu She urged her to hurry up, and the two arrived at Gu's mansion quickly.

To Tao Mo's surprise: Lin Zhengyong, Lu Zhenxue, Sun Kuan, Yu Ming, Li Yuan...almost all the decent people from Danyang County have arrived.

Seeing his surprise, Gu She smiled and said, "They all came to the wedding."

Sun Kuan said: "Master Yang and Senior Brother Lin want to accompany them, and asked me to bring gifts for them. I wish Senior Brother Gu and Master Tao a happy marriage for a hundred years and grow old together."

Gu She nodded towards him, and said to Tao Mo: "Go, pay homage!"

Tao Mo was startled: "Now? I haven't had breakfast yet."

Everyone roared with laughter. Gu She smiled and said, "There is porridge in the bridal chamber."

"Huh?" It was the first time Tao Mo heard of eating porridge in the bridal chamber.

But he was not allowed to refuse, so Gu She pulled him to the prepared wedding hall. Tao Mo went up to the hall to see that the tablet of his parents had been placed here at some time, and there was also the tablet of Lian Xuehong.

Gu She looked back, Lin Zhengyong smiled and said, "Why don't I be—"

Before he could finish speaking, someone shouted: "I'll come, I'll come!"

Everyone saw that it was Ji Wudi.

He stood in the hall, puffed out his chest, and shouted: "Bow to heaven and earth!"
