Gu Hongjian realized that she didn't seem to need to sleep, so when He Fangning and Lin Size finished their busy work and the candles went out, she swayed around in He Fangning's inner hall.
Gu Hongjian's recovery ability is really good, whether it is a human being or a ghost, it is the same.
In the eyes of outsiders, Gu Hongjian is the only female official since the founding of the country. She has enormous power and has some unspoken ambiguities with the emperor. She has vicious methods, is resolute, and she is non-discriminatory. She rarely even smiles. The whole person seems to be made of steel.
But only Gu Hongjian herself and Lin Size knew that Gu Hongjian was actually an ordinary woman. She really worked hard to maintain her majestic image outside, and she didn't laugh much about it, but secretly, she was familiar with others. After that, it was easy to cry and laugh. She could read the book and see crying, she would laugh because of a story that was not funny at all, and even if Lin Size touched her head a little, she could smirk for a long time.
And Gu Hongjian's emotions were indeed caused by Lin Size, but Lin Size always tossed her, and after a long time, she would be able to recover by herself.
She was in a daze and couldn't see anything clearly, she was in a daze, and the sky dimmed if she didn't pay attention. He Fangning and Lin Size were both up, and Lin Size went to the morning after washing up. "I'll see you when I'm facing you" and other promises, but Lin Size left without saying anything.
Gu Hongjian stuck out her tongue at the lost He Fangning, and was led by Lin Size to the former court.
When Lin Size was in the early court, he actually mentioned Huzhou again, and asked if General Sun had any new news. General Sun said, "I haven't returned to the emperor yet, but it's been a few days since I thought about it."
This General Sun was originally Lin Size's most highly regarded general, and he should also be responsible for the affairs of Huzhou. However, when it was temporarily changed to Gu Hongjian, General Sun was not dissatisfied, but was very worried.
Lin Size nodded when he heard the words.
Then one person suddenly stood up and said, "Your Majesty, Wei Chen has something to report."
Lin Size said, "What's the matter?"
Gu Hongjian glanced at it and found that the man was Zhao Yunyuan, a famous bachelor in the Hanlin Academy. After a few more years, he would probably be able to replace Zhou Hanlin, who is now old enough to hold a pen.
Zhao Yunyuan said: "Gu Shilang is a woman after all. Although he is supported by Deputy General Wang, I am afraid that there are still many dangers. The minister thought... Maybe we should send some more troops to help Gu Shilang."
Gu Hong was a little surprised when he heard this.
Zhao Yunyuan is a very honest person.
Because of his uprightness, he once impeached Gu Hongjian, saying that she was a jerk and a jackal. Lin Size also threw it to Gu Hongjian, Gu Hongjian glanced at it, and only said that Zhao Xueshi is good at writing, As expected of a real champion of Jinke, she is much stronger than her who relies on the backstage.
The second year after Lin Size ascended the throne, it was a year when the relationship between Gu Hongjian and Lin Size eased slightly.
Gu Hongjian faked his identity as Gu Hong and ran to take the imperial examination, only to find out about it all the way to the palace examination. Lin Size didn't say much with a sullen face, and directly named Gu Hongjian as the champion, but at the same time the other candidate was the real candidate. Everyone was full of praise, and Lin Size himself admired it a lot. Therefore, he opened it. A precedent for double champions.
The other champion of the tragedy was Zhao Yunyuan, so he didn't like Gu Hongjian, and Gu Hongjian fully understood it. Besides, Zhao Yunyuan obviously didn't hate Gu Hongjian because of that incident, but really... Look at Gu Hongjian or not. pleasing to the eye.
Gu Hongjian directly stated his identity at the Qionglin Banquet, saying that he was a woman, and everyone was scared to death. Lin Size's face became darker, but he didn't explain much, only talking about a female official. Later, a few people impeached Gu Hong for this. See, but was slowly resolved by Gu Hongjian.
And the voice that Gu Hongjian was a treacherous minister never stopped, and Gu Hongjian didn't care. The officials she got rid of had only one thing in common, that was, it was not good for Lin Size.
After becoming the female champion, the Huanhai has been ups and downs in the past few years. Gu Hong sees that she can't find a courtier who is closer to Lin Size than her. Everyone knows that she is Lin Size's confidant and Lin Size's right-hand man.
Since the previous dynasty, the censor's desk has become a decoration, from the imperial envoy to the doctor, down to the patrol. Hongjian killed another group of people who were dissatisfied with Lin Size, and now the Censor's desk is like an empty shelf.
As for Gu Hongjian, although her methods are sometimes vicious, she is indeed quite capable. In addition, there are incompetent people in the censor's desk, and there will be fewer people who impeach her. Everyone sees that Lin Size has a firm attitude and can only accept that this strange woman was in the early court. Stand around yourself.
It's a pity that she is not a man. The title of the gold list at the beginning, and the subsequent step into the cloud, are not open and aboveboard - to be honest, how can anyone be a servant within seven years? Then Zhao Yunyuan hadn't become a Hanlin for seven years, and was only a Zhao bachelor, but Gu Hongjian was already a servant.
Those who flattered and flattered in front of Gu Hong, they said a lot of bad things about her behind their backs, some of which were passed into Gu Hongjian's ears, but she found that she had nothing to refute.
At first, she was also a little angry, but later she didn't care at all. When she saw the impeachment book of a dumb guy like Zhao Yunyuan, she could still laugh and say that the writing was good.
It's just that Gu Hongjian is also very clear that he is not welcome, but he never expected that Zhao Yunyuan was actually quite worried about her... Well, from another point of view, he was mainly concerned about Gu Hongjian's ability. What confidence...
As soon as Zhao Yunyuan finished speaking, another person stood up and said: "Gu Shilang is resourceful and resourceful, there must be no problem, why should Master Zhao worry so much?"
Gu Hong felt unhappy when she saw this person, and couldn't help but snorted - even if the other party couldn't hear it at all.
This person is the current Dali Si Qing, who should be a lot of age, but in fact, he is the same age as Gu Hongjian. Although his features are very good, he is full of vigor and arrogance, which makes people look at him. I don't think this is a good person to get along with.
And he can become Dali Temple Secretary, apart from his own ability, the more important thing is that his surname is Zuo, and his name is Zuo Ninghao.
It is the son of Zuo Xiang, who is now officially idle at home, and is also Zuo Ningyan's twin brother. It is said that he was only born one cup of tea later than Zuo Ningyan.
Just as Gu Hongjian hated him, he also hated Gu Hongjian, so when he said such a thing, Gu Hongjian was not surprised at all, he just thought that this person was extremely naive.
Lin Size glanced over Zhao Yunyuan and Zuo Ninghao, and said, "We will wait for news from Huzhou to decide."
It was an understatement, neither agreeing nor disagreeing, but it was considered an answer. Zhao Yunyuan said "yes" and stopped talking. Zuo Ninghao glanced at Zhao Yunyuan and stopped talking.
After that, nothing major happened. Gu Hong saw her floating left and right, hoping that someone would see her, but it was a pity that the civil and military affairs of the whole dynasty were the same as before, and no one could see any expressions of surprise or fear on their faces.
Still no one could see her.
- However, if anyone can see her, Gu Hongjian hopes it is Zuo Ninghao, she wants to scare this guy to death.
After getting off the morning, Lin Size went directly to Wendao Hall and changed the book. In the middle, Jiang Haifu sent someone some snacks, but Lin Size didn't touch it at all. It was not until noon that he ate a meal alone, then took a nap and went to the imperial palace. I took a walk in the garden, practiced martial arts for a while, and finally sat down and changed my mind.
Gu Hongjian followed Lin Size all the way, and suddenly realized that Lin Size's life was actually quite boring and uninteresting.
Moreover, Lin Size obviously didn't particularly like this kind of life. After this day, Gu Hongjian was stunned that he had never seen Lin Size smile.
Except for Zhou Hanlin's visit once, the rest of the time, Lin Size didn't see anyone else.
In this way, Lin Size is actually quite pitiful...
Gu Hongjian's sympathy for Lin Size stopped that night. He Fangning probably saw that Lin Size went to her place yesterday, so she came to Wen Daotang with courage, and brought some snacks and soup that she said was made by herself. Seeing her coming, she didn't say she was not polite, but she didn't see how happy she was, so she just let her go back to Ziyun Palace first.
The word "first" implied that Lin Size would also go in a while, He Fangning was overjoyed, but still suppressed, only her cheeks showed a little blushing, and said, "Your Majesty, the concubine has nothing to do if I go back first, it is better to stay here. Here with you."
Lin Size glanced at her and said, "Then you can polish the ink for me."
The little eunuch who was grinding the ink next to him stepped back in a very discerning way. He Fangning smiled, not disliking the work of grinding the ink.
This scene of red sleeves and fragrant companions made Gu Hongjian roll her eyes, but she even survived last night, and now she can't survive it.
He Fangning was halfway through grinding, and suddenly said: "This is Fang Ning's first time grinding ink, don't take offense to the emperor if the grinding is not good..."
Lin Size said, "Very good."
After a pause, he said again: "Someone is much worse than you, and even the inkstone can be overturned."
He Fangning was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at the little eunuch beside him, the little eunuch looked at them innocently, and then shook his head in fear - God is pitiful, he has never behaved like that, even a drop of ink has never been spilled!
But Gu Hongjian, who was floating beside a few people, was stunned.
The person Lin Size said should be... No, it was definitely her.
It was the third year in Pyeongchang, and the fourth year after Lin Size ascended the throne, she lived in Zhaohong Hall.
Previously, she and Lin Size had been at odds with each other, but an accident made them barely reconciled. Not only did they reconcile, but they were also closer than before. At that time, He Fangning didn't show up. Lin Size's side was the woman who was really with him. , only Gu Hong saw one.
At the same time, Gu Hongjian's status in the front hall also continued to rise until he reached the clerk, and Lin Size probably felt that the word shilang was rather ambiguous.
Servant, Servant, what Servant
Therefore, she was not allowed to be promoted again, but after the two became husband and wife, Lin Size intended to let her move in to live in the palace. Gu Hongjian refused at first, saying that she was afraid that others would say that Lin Size was a foolish ruler who played with his officials, but Lin Size just changed the name of the Deze Hall where he lived when he was only a prince to Zhaohong Hall, and Gu Hongjian couldn't bear it anymore and agreed immediately.
Zhaohong Hall, Zhaohong Hall, he was calling her to go, and since childhood, every time she obeyed Lin Size's call.
Besides, the Deze Hall was the second palace where Lin Size lived when he was the prince. The first Baifu Hall was left empty because it was too remote. The second palace also contained many memories of the two of them. Now, Gu Hongjian couldn't refuse.
However, Gu Hongjian still lived in a mansion on Zhuque Street outside the palace. After going to court every day, he also pretended to leave with everyone, and then took the sedan back to the harem. In this way, there was no big problem.
In the third year of Pingchang, Gu Hongjian was still a little restrained. In the fourth year of Pingchang, she was completely used to the life in the harem. Everyone in the harem knew who she was. Although she did not have any concubine status, she was the only one of the emperor. She was a favored woman, and she was also an official, so one could not help but understand that Lin Size valued Gu Hongjian more.
So four years after Pingchang, Gu Hongjian became unrestrained in the harem, and sometimes sneaked to Wendaotang to find Lin Size.
At that time, Lin Size was also very busy, perhaps even busier than now, always revising memorials and discussing matters with ministers.
Although Gu Hongjian is also a waiter, she actually seldom cares about the world. Her vision is very small, only limited to Lin Size, and she just wants to share Lin Size's worries, so she only considers the issues that Lin Size asks her to think about. She does what she does.
Therefore, most of the time, Gu Hongjian doesn't care about things at all, and when things get under her nose, she will reach out and take care of them.
Because she was afraid of meeting other ministers in Wendaotang, Gu Hongjian first appeared near Wendaotang from a distance, and then exchanged glances with Jiang Haifu at the door. , if Jiang Haifu shook his head, then she would have to sneak away.
And if she could get in, she would rush in without hesitation. At first, Lin Size was startled, and he almost threw the pen to her. After seeing that it was her, he held the pen that he almost threw out. Said, "Why are you here?"
At first, Gu Hongjian laughed and said that he was bored, then accompanied him and picked up the memorial to read.
In fact, this is a very outrageous thing, but Lin Size doesn't seem to care much, and Gu Hong sees that she is even more unaware. She is holding a memorial, and she doesn't talk about serious business. Even though I am a lot older, my words are still so strong and powerful. I occasionally comment on the content of the two memorabilia, but they are just "bullshit" or "flattering words".
Lin Size was too lazy to care about her, and was not disturbed, and only approved the papers by himself.
Later, Lin Size was completely accustomed to someone sneaking in when he was in Wen Dao Tang, and then started to judge randomly with his memorial, and even fell asleep, almost without drooling.
Once, when Gu Hongjian woke up, she found herself on Wen Daotang's soft couch with a yellow quilt covering her body. She was stunned, remembering that she had been with Lin Size before, she felt a little embarrassed and ran away. When I went outside, I saw that Lin Size was still reviewing the memorial.
Gu Hongjian leaned over and said, "Well, I fell asleep...?"
Lin Size glanced at her, but did not speak, the meaning in his eyes was probably "otherwise".
Gu Hongjian said, "I was lying on the table, and before I knew it... Hey, how did I get on the soft couch just now? Oh, Si Ze, did you carry me there!"
Lin Si Ze didn't even bother to look at her this time, and only Gu Hongjian said happily, "Si Ze, you are so kind!"
In private, Gu Hongjian always called Lin Size and Size. Lin Size also called her Hongjian. If there were outsiders, they would be called each other's emperor and Aiqing. Only when she was in bed, Gu Hong would be sticky when she got excited. Shouting out a word or two to the emperor can always cause Lin Size to catch his breath, and his movements become more courageous. In the end, it was only Gu Hongjian who suffered.
Gu Hong saw that she was grateful to Lin Size, so she shouted that she wanted to help him polish his ink.
Gu Hong saw that every time he came back, Lin Size would let the little eunuch who was grinding ink go outside to grind, and occasionally called him to come in to replace the dried inkstone, but there was really not much ink in the inkstone at the moment, so Lin Size nodded and asked her to grind.
In fact, Gu Hongjian has never sharpened her ink. She played with knives and guns a lot since she was a child. She never served Lin Size to sharpen her ink when she was a child. Instead, Lin Size helped her to sharpen her ink in order to teach her to write. Later, in order to take the imperial examinations, she read hard. I have bought some books, but there are also people around me.
Gu Hongjian started to grind only carefully, but found that he couldn't grind too much for a long time. He thought that if he continued to grind, he would break his hand, so he increased the force.
But she practiced martial arts, and her hands were strong. With this strength, the ink cake just poked on the edge of the inkstone table, and actually made the entire inkstone table stand upright, and then turned it around twice.
No more or no less ink hit her own hands and Lin Size's clothes, and the splashed ink splattered on the faces of the two of them.
Lin Size: "..."
Gu Hongjian panicked and reached out to wipe off the ink on Lin Size's face, but she forgot that her hands were even more dirty, so the serious Lin Size turned into a black-faced monster.
Gu Hong saw that she was stupid, but she couldn't hold it back, she burst into laughter, Lin Size was silent for a moment, and suddenly reached out to squeeze her face - his hand was already stained with ink.
Gu Hongjian didn't dodge, she smiled and let him smack her face. After a while, Lin Size couldn't hold it anymore, and chuckled, Gu Hongjian looked at Lin Size with a smile. Lin Size's face was darker than usual. It was cute and funny, the two looked at each other for a while, and after a while, Lin Size pinched Gu Hongjian's chin, and didn't think they were both dirty, so they kissed Gu Hongjian for a while, Gu Hongjian closed his eyes and endured Lin Size's kiss was incredibly soft.
After a while, Lin Size let go of Gu Hongjian, Gu Hongjian lay in his arms and gasped lightly, making his clothes even more dirty. Lin Size held her hand and said, "Stupid."
Gu Hong saw that there was no way to refute it, and the probe lightly bit Lin Size's chin.
Lin Size lowered her head and glanced at her, her eyes were deep, then she called someone to clean, and took Gu Hongjian to take a bath together. There was a huge bath in Zhaohong Hall. Lin Size threw her into it, and then went in himself. The two washed each other's faces, and then washed down. Gu Hongjian was a little embarrassed, but Lin Size didn't see any embarrassment. He only grabbed Gu Hongjian and gave her a thorough bath. In the end, Gu Hongjian was caught by Lin Size sideways. When he took it out, even Xiang Jun, who didn't see anything, blushed.
After that, Gu Hongjian didn't dare to say that he wanted to help Lin Size polish his ink.
The sweetness of the past was vividly vivid in his mind, Gu Hongjian came back to his senses, looked at He Fangning, who had made no mistakes, and Lin Size, who bowed his head to read the memorial, and sighed softly.
A position that she is not competent for, someone can take on after all.
Gu Hongjian was also ready to see the two of them for another sweet night, but unexpectedly, Lin Size sent He Fangning away and directly rested in the study room for the night.
