Accidentally Married Miss Empress

No matter what kind it is, Gong Yu will feel very distressed.

But Dai Ruyan seems to be used to it, no sadness, no tears, only simple words.

The days gradually moved back, and although Gong Yu did not go to court, he learned that the rumors in the capital had reached a peak.

Chen Ming, the secretary of Dali Temple, has always been upright and upright, and the Taifu pressured several times to no avail. Gong Yu thought to himself that the Taifu would definitely suppress this matter.

So he had the imperial physician arrested, and under a feast of intimidation, the imperial physician wrote down that the real cause of death of the Fourth Highness was ***.

Gong Yu couldn't help but stunned when she saw the cause of death, this father and daughter were really cruel.

Immediately after, in the capital city, the Fourth Highness was poisoned, and Zhao Anyue had always been at odds with the Fourth Highness, not to mention the rumor that Gong Yu was walking around.

On the contrary, the person beside Zhao Anyue became suspicious first, so he couldn't help panicking.

This matter is even more turbulent in the city. Even if the Taifu wants to release the fake edict, it will only make people more suspicious, so he has to act in secret.

As the Mid-Autumn Festival was approaching, the Empress suddenly issued an imperial decree.

The minister of the court, who had been thinking about it for many years, never imagined that the imperial edict would be in the hands of the empress.

At this time Gong Yu was busy trying to make popcorn in the mansion, Dai Ruyan on the side covered her ears with her hands and called, "Xiao Jiu, what are you doing?"

"I'm making delicious food."

"boom!"

This sound is indeed a bit scary, but when the hot popcorn came out of the pot, Gong Yu stuffed a few pieces to taste it, and it was even more delicious when it was dipped in syrup.

Gong Yu handed something to Dai Ruyan's mouth and said, "Ayan taste it?"

Dai Ruyan looked at the popcorn, ate one hesitantly, and asked, "Is it crispy?"

"Well, crunchy and sweet."

"A little too sweet."

Gong Yu guessed that Dai Ruyan probably didn't like it very much, so she said, "Actually, it can be salty. Would you like to try it?"

"No, this thing tastes a bit strange, Xiao Jiu's better to eat less."

The servant outside the door suddenly came to report: "His Royal Highness, the Queen has issued an edict to invite you to enter the palace."

Dai Ruyan looked sideways and said, "I'll go with you."

The two went out of the mansion and rushed to the palace gate. All the officials on the official road rushed to the palace anxiously, and the carriages of the Sixth Highness and the Fifth Highness also rushed to the palace.

Gong Yu looked at the somewhat tense situation outside, clenched Dai Ruyan's hand and said, "Does Ayan know that the Queen has an edict in her hand?"

"I don't know."

"What is the Queen trying to do with the imperial edict?"

Dai Ruyan looked forward and replied: "Maybe the Queen's hand is not the real edict."

"Then why did the Queen summon all the ministers?"

"The queen has always been for herself. It is almost impossible for her to come to her majesty. If the edict does not appear at this time, the ministers will force the palace without waiting for your majesty's death."

"But forcing the palace will not endanger the queen?" Gong Yu looked at Dai Ruyan in confusion.

Since ancient times, the forced palace has always been the murder of brothers, and I have never seen the murder of the emperor's concubine.

This is not in line with the strict etiquette of the palace country, and it will humiliate the reputation. For those who want to sit on the throne, wouldn't it be equivalent to tearing down the face to admit that the position is wrong.

Dai Ruyan held Gong Yu's wrist and replied, "Xiao Jiu, Your Highness was killed last night."

"Is it the queen?"

"Um."

The Third Highness Gongyu can understand, but why?

And now the queen has taken out the imperial edict, obviously her revenge is not over yet.

Gong Yu frowned and said, "Ayan, are you still staying in the mansion?"

"Why?"

I always thought the queen was crazy.

Maybe gunpowder or something will be buried, and all those who don't like it will be sent to the sky.

"I'm afraid the queen wants everyone to be buried with you."

"Silly words." Dai Ruyan looked at Gong Yu and said, "I won't accompany you, can I feel at ease?"

"Besides, the queen's work seems to be foggy, but in fact everything is just for revenge."

Gong Yu asked hesitantly, "But what happened back then should have nothing to do with His Highness."

"Who said it doesn't matter?"

Dai Ruyan blinked her eyes lightly and said, "At that time, His Royal Highness, who oversees the country, was in charge of the affairs of the palace, and the Third Highness had people poisoned. How could His Highness not know?"

"Ayan's meaning is that His Highness will let His Third Highness do what His Highness does?"

"If the queen gives birth to a baby boy, why is it that only the third highness will be threatened?"

Gong Yu couldn't help but stunned for a moment, thinking about how terrifying it was, the empress who was pregnant with Liujia, the third highness who intended to murder, the grand highness who helped fuel the flames, and the generation of the family were also secretly instigating.

The empress at that time was persecuted like this, and you can imagine how deep the grudge was.

Dai Ruyan next to him gently held Gong Yu with her fingertips and said, "Xiao Jiu?"

"Um."

"I worry about you."

Gong Yu shook Dai Ruyan's hand back and responded, "Don't be afraid, I have a clear conscience."

After all, if the queen is not crazy, then everything should have little to do with herself.

But Dai Ruyan's eyes showed unease, as if Gong Yu's words of comfort were of no use.

Thinking about the carriage, Gong Yu asked inexplicably, "Why is Ayan worried?"

"I'm afraid someone will hurt you."

Is it because of the assassination last time?

Gong Yu comforted and said, "I'm wearing a protective suit. Generally, a sharp blade can't hurt me."

Dai Ruyan was still uneasy, and asked in a low voice, "I've never heard of this protective suit, where did Xiao Jiu get it?"

"I designed it myself."

Except for some heavy wear, the rest is ok.

When the carriage stopped, Dai Ruyan got out of the car, Gong Yu looked down at the towering palace wall, there were many guards guarding every gate, at least five times the number of people who usually guarded the gate of the palace.

Gong Yu looked sideways at Dai Ruyan and said, "Ayan really wants to accompany me in?"

"Um."

Dai Ruyan obviously made up her mind, so Gong Yu had no choice but to remain silent, just thinking about Dai Ruyan's uneasy eyes just now, she couldn't help but think of asking if she could see the true face of the assassin hidden in the white mist.

But Dai Ruyan, who has always had excellent eyesight, shook her head and said she couldn't see clearly.

There was a bad suspicion in Gong Yu's heart, but she didn't want to believe that Dai Ruyan would do such a cruel thing.

However, this suspicion lingered in Gong Yu's head and entangled endlessly, because at that time when the queen was pregnant, Gong Yu had seen with his own eyes the same generation of Gong Quan, who was still the prince, alone.

Gong Yu didn't think much about it at that time, only thought that they were just enjoying the scenery and chatting, thinking about Ruyan's words at that time.

I can't help but feel a chill on my back. Maybe the Highness will turn a blind eye to the behavior of the Third Highness, or it may be on behalf of Ruyan that he told him about the threat of the fetus in the queen's womb.

If this assumption is true, and the Queen can find out Her Highness, it may also be associated with Dai Ruyan.

And the reason why Dai Ruyan was so worried was because she participated in it herself, and knew that the queen was always taking revenge on those people back then.

Gong Yu thought in fear, but Dai Ruyan didn't have to do that. Murdering the prince would not benefit Dai Ruyan at all.

After thinking about it, I suddenly thought that Ruyan pretended to see through her identity as a woman disguised as a man, but she already knew it, and even said directly that she wanted Gong Yu to marry her.

So since he promised to replace Ruyan, everything has been quietly planned?

When the long palace road was about to come to an end, Gong Yu gently pulled Dai Ruyan and said, "Assuming that the queen holds the edict of the true inheritance, who does Ayan think will become emperor?"

"It won't be your Sixth Highness."

Dai Ruyan answered in silence for a while.

The two stepped into the main hall, the Queen stood above, the ministers were fighting with swords, and the Sixth Highness and the Fifth Highness stood aside.

The queen looked at this side and smiled and said: "Since everyone has come, then Eunuch Li will read the imperial edict."

"Yes."

"Fengtian Chengyun emperor's edict said, since the death of the previous emperor, I have gone through hardships and guarded the territory of the palace country with the ministers. However, I have more than my heart but not enough strength, and I am afraid that I will have a long time. Gong Yu Zhai is kind and kind, although he is young, he knows the suffering of the people, and he is diligent and diligent. He will surely become a generation of Mingjun, so he passed it on to the imperial palace. I hope all ministers will help me with all my heart, and guard the palace country for thousands of generations. I admire this!"

After Eunuch Li finished reading the imperial edict, Gong Yu was stunned and still didn't understand the situation.

All the ministers of Dai's party have already knelt on the ground and responded, "The minister will lead the way."

The Sixth Highness and the Fifth Highness seemed to be a little confused, the Taifu's party was in chaos, and some officials who were sloppy on the ground also knelt on the ground.

The queen looked around and said, "Is there any dissatisfaction among the ministers?"

"I dare not."

Several ministers beside the Taifu also knelt down immediately. Eunuch Li held the imperial decree in front of Gong Yu and said, "Your Highness Ninth, please go and see Your Majesty."

The emperor is really still alive.

Gong Yu looked at Dai Ruyan, and Dai Ruyan released her hand and responded, "I'm waiting for you here."

"Um."

After entering the back of the main hall, Gong Yu entered the emperor's bedroom for the first time. Except for the bright light, there was nothing else in the huge hall.

The emperor lay weakly on the bed, Gong Yu approached, and Eunuch Li whispered, "Your Majesty, the Ninth Highness has come down."

Gong Yu couldn't help but be very nervous, only to see the emperor slowly open his eyes, and then Eunuch Li retreated to the outside of the palace.

"Do you know why I made you emperor?" the emperor asked with a round pillow on his back.

"My son doesn't know."

"That booklet is all about the fact that the party that recommended you as the crown prince handed you in."

Gong Yu turned his head to look at the pile of piles on the other side, and the emperor breathed heavily and said, "The throne has become a place for power and ministers to compete. The more you are pushed, the more you will be suppressed by them in the future."

"You are not the right person to be the emperor, but choosing you on behalf of the family is obviously like borrowing you to take advantage of the lifeline of the royal family of the palace."

"Then why did the emperor write down the imperial edict?"

The emperor looked at Gong Yu and said, "I didn't write it, someone would force me to write it. I originally wanted Gong Liang to become emperor."

Gong Liang? Is this the name of the Sixth Highness?

"He is talented, but he is not as weak as her biological mother. If you give me more time, I will also give him the throne."

"Even if the father knows that the sixth emperor's brother murdered his mother, does it not mind?"

The emperor coughed a few times, and his face became paler and said: "A conspirators need means, and parents and brothers can abandon them."

"But Gong Liang was the only one who fell into the trap of that generation of girls and couldn't extricate himself, so that he could never recover, but he himself never repented."

Gong Yu approached and asked, "Father, is the palace already surrounded?"

"This palace has long since become a cage where the Gong clan is imprisoned. I watched my sons fight and die one by one, but I couldn't let them know that the real conspirators are hidden in the depths and never reveal their flaws easily."

The emperor stared at Gong Yu and said, "You must remember that if one party is removed from the Dai family's party and the Taifu party's party, the other party will inevitably threaten the royal family of the palace country."

Gong Yu nodded and heard the fighting outside, and the emperor obviously heard the voices outside and laughed: "The deeper they fight, the emperor can mediate between them and create the glory of the palace country in the past."

When the words stopped, the emperor slowly closed his eyes, Gong Yu stretched out his hand to probe his breath, and found that the emperor had lost his breath.

Originally, there were still many questions that I wanted to ask, but I didn't expect the emperor to be so weak.

The cries of fighting made Gong Yu worried about Dai Ruyan outside, so she turned around and wanted to go to the outer hall, but unfortunately she met the queen.

The queen's makeup was heavy and her appearance was outstanding. Compared with the terminally ill emperor, she did not look like a couple.

"Don't your ninth highness want to know who is threatening your majesty?"

Gong Yu stepped back and said, "My father has passed away."

"Your Majesty has been ill for many days, and he can't hold it anymore." The Queen's face did not show any sadness at all, as if she hadn't heard Gong Yu's words.

The queen walked slowly, and said with a smile in her eyes: "Are you afraid of this palace?"

"This palace is not as scary as Dai Ruyan."

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

"nonsense?"

The Empress smiled and sighed. Holding a long sword, she walked towards Gong Yu and said, "Beauties are all thorns. Could it be that your Ninth Highness has never doubted Dai Ruyan?"

"I…"

"You hesitated?"

The queen shook her head and said, "It is said that people can only see the side they want to see, but they can't see the dark side hidden behind."

"But in this deep palace, Ben Gong has never seen what kind of darkness, but I have never seen anyone who is better at calculating than Dai Ruyan."

Gong Yu felt that the empress's smile was very strange, and she held the hilt of the sword and said, "I'm sorry to ask the empress to let me out."

"go out?"

"It's fighting and killing outside. Your little Highness is so tightly guarded by Yan Ruyan. Have you ever seen such a scene?"

"Is all this designed by the Empress?"

The queen waved the sword in her hand, Gong Yu ducked to one side, the candlestick on that side was cut off, and the curtain of the inner hall was burned.

"Ninth Highness, haven't you thought that all this was designed by your wife?"

Gong Yu covered her nose and said, "You killed the Third Emperor and the First Emperor, and now you just want to take revenge on the Dai family, and Dai Ruyan will become a thorn in your side."

"Do you really just think like this?" The queen held the sword in one hand and the candlestick in the other to light the beaded screen window, and the fire grew even bigger.

"Dai Ruyan chose you, perhaps because you were too deceived."

The queen threw the candlestick aside and laughed: "How stupid!"

"Dai Jia and Dai Ruyan have already torn their faces since they married you. Dai Ruyan is all about putting you on the throne, and she is the real power behind her."

Gong Yu didn't intend to pay attention to the queen, so he planned to break out of the burning palace, but the queen chased after him and slashed at Gong Yu with his sword.

Fortunately, the protective suit finally came in handy, the robe was punctured in several places, Gong Yu counterattacked the sword held by the queen.

The queen without the sword did not show any signs of fear, instead she smiled strangely and said, "Hasn't Your Highness Ninth thought about why I was able to leave the palace and sneak into the prison of Dali Temple to kill the Third Highness?"

"Even if it's the Empress, I don't have the ability to leave the palace, but only Dai Ruyan has the ability."

"Do you want to say that Dai Ruyan helped you kill the Third Emperor Brother?"

"It's not what I want to say, but you should check the night that your third highness died, where was Dai Ruyan?"

Gong Yu couldn't refute, because that night Jasper just said that Dai Ruyan had fallen asleep early, and there were some connected secret passages under the capital city, if Dai Ruyan wanted to leave secretly, it was a simple matter.

The fire around him became much bigger, and there seemed to be a lot of people pouring water outside, but there was no dense smoke, Gong Yu coughed and covered her mouth and nose.

The Queen's face was both smiling and crying, and she shouted in pain: "Only by killing you, can Dai Ruyan realize what it means to be alive rather than dead."

"What does the life and death of that heartless man have to do with me?

The only exit in the hall was already surrounded by fierce fire, and the thick smoke in the hall became more and more pungent, so Gong Yu had to go inside.

But until he reached the corner, the entire hall was sealed, and there was no other way out. Gong Yu breathlessly covered her mouth and nose, poured the water from the vase onto her clothes, and covered her mouth and nose to maintain her breathing.

The door outside the hall was pushed down with a few bangs, and then water was poured into the hall. Gong Yu saw that the fire was getting smaller and smaller, so she could not help but breathe a sigh of relief, but she didn't expect Dai Ruyan from outside to come in eagerly.

The queen who appeared out of nowhere suddenly ran towards Dai Ruyan with a sword, Gong Yu pulled Dai Ruyan and hurriedly hid aside, the sword slashed at the large porcelain vase, fell to the side and shattered to the ground.

The queen in front of her was like a lunatic who hurt people with a sword. Gong Yu fought back with a sword, but because she was worried about Dai Ruyan beside her, she was slashed with a savage sword. The strength was no worse than that of a wooden stick, and the pain was so painful that he stretched out his legs and kicked the queen.

Only then did the crisis barely resolve, Gong Yu took a deep breath, and on behalf of Ruyan called out worriedly, "Xiao Jiu!"

"I'm fine."

The guards who came later suppressed the queen, and the fire in the hall was extinguished. Only a dark area remained in the hall, and the painting on the wall was also destroyed by smoke.

Dai Ruyan hurriedly checked Gong Yu's injury, fortunately there was no blood, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

"I'm fine"

Gong Yu approached and reassured.

"His Royal Highness Fang Cai's party mutiny, so the palace was in chaos for a while."

"The eldest brother is already dead, why are you still mutiny?"

"Maybe it was someone who took this name. After all, if it succeeds, I am afraid that the palace country will change its dynasty today."

Gong Yu led Dai Ruyan to leave the hall. The sun was scorching hot outside, and the bodies of the dead and wounded soldiers had not been cleaned up.

Eunuch Li came out of the hall with red eyes, knelt aside and shouted, "Your Majesty has passed away."

The ministers and the other soldiers knelt down one after another, but the Sixth Highness's gaze has not left Gong Yu since then.

The mutiny came suddenly and ended suddenly.

Even Gong Yu didn't know where Dai Ruyan's soldiers and horses came from. It was not until Qin Hua, who recovered from the injury, led Gong Yu's soldiers and horses into the palace, that Gong Yu suddenly realized that everything was happening on behalf of Ruyan. Yan is in control.

On that day, the imperial edict was quickly issued to the palace, and even if the ministers were unwilling, they could not resist. After all, the soldiers and horses of the An faction in the palace had already been eliminated by Dai Ruyan, and even the Taifu was angry and turned blue. Sleeves left.

Qin Hua, dressed in white robes, looked pale and bowed, "Long live, long live, long live Your Majesty."

Because of the death of the previous emperor, Gong Yu is also dressed in white. Guessing that Qin Hua should be here to report the situation, he asked, "When did Mr. Qin cooperate with his wife so tacitly?"

"The queen's concubine predicts things like a god, so Wei Chen arbitrarily moved His Majesty's troops and horses, and the minister is guilty."

"I asked when did you negotiate?"

Qin Huafu lowered his head and replied, "About half a month ago."

Gong Yu thought for a while, when Dai Ruyan was still recovering half a month ago, did she already think of how to use mutiny to suppress the ministers?

Or the mutiny itself was planned by Dai Ruyan, the purpose was to make His Highness the Sixth Highness and the ministers compromise, so as to successfully ascend the throne.

"Your Majesty?" Qin Hua raised his head slightly and said, "There are a lot of soldiers and horses in the palace now, and the top priority should be to clear up the civil strife, and then proceed to the canonization ceremony."

Gong Yuduan sat and asked, "Mr. Qin used to be careful with his wife, why is he so obedient and obeying orders now?"

Qin Hua bowed his head again and replied, "This minister is guilty."

"Does Mr. Qin know how the eldest brother died?"

"I have sent people to investigate, and His Highness committed suicide by taking poison."

Taking poison?

Who sent the poison?

Gong Yu slowly got up and walked in front of Qin Hua and said, "I once asked someone to investigate Mr. Qin's family background, and found that Mr. Qin was the eldest brother's **** a few years ago."

"Later, I heard Mr. Qin's poems for the eldest brother to answer the emperor's father, and he was greatly appreciated by the emperor."

Qin Hua frowned tightly and said, "What is your majesty trying to say?"

"Why would such an admired person be reduced to being an unfavored prince's staff?"

Gong Yu strolled around Qin Hua and said, "I think everything is over, Mr. Qin doesn't need to say that his minister is guilty. After two days, the ceremony will be enthroned, and then there will be Mr. Qin's place in the court."

"Thank you for your appreciation, Your Majesty, I am guilty."

"It's not a crime, it's just a matter of seeking its own position and its own master."

"Your Majesty is not angry?"

"What's wrong with this, Mr. Qin is very knowledgeable, and the court will be useful."

Qin Hua raised his head slightly to look at Gong Yu and said, "The Empress has already arranged for soldiers and horses to guard the palace inside and outside the palace, and the palaces of the ministers in the court have also sent troops to guard them. I think these soldiers and horses will not be evacuated until the enthronement ceremony."

"Aren't Your Majesty afraid that the Empress has ulterior motives?"

Gong Yu looked at Qin Hua's response: "If I had ulterior motives, I'm afraid I don't know how many times I've died."

"Your Majesty is this?"

"Maybe Ayan has ulterior motives, but I know she wants to protect me better, so I choose to accept it."

"But this way, Your Majesty is surrounded by people from the Queen's concubine."

"There's nothing wrong with this, as long as it makes Ayan feel more at ease."

Gong Yu thought for a while and then said, "Isn't Mr. Qin still my staff anyway?"

Qin Hua shook his head and said, "This minister is guilty."

"If you are guilty, you should be punished. Anyway, the court lacks people who can speak out and accept advice. Mr. Qin should do his duty."

"Your Majesty?" Qin Hua kowtowed and replied, "The sinner has the decree."

On the day of the enthronement ceremony, before dawn, Gongyu was awakened by Dai Ruyan.

Dai Ruyan was wearing this complicated dragon robe for Gong Yu. Gong Yu looked at herself in the mirror and couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable.

"The thing on this head is too heavy." Gong Yu stretched out her hand and lifted the eye-catching beads in front of her.

"It's really tiring to wear this crown, but Xiao Jiu has to walk carefully later, otherwise it will be bad if he falls."

"No, I practiced several times last night."

Dai Ruyan pushed Gong Yu to stand in front of the mirror and said, "This robe fits well, Xiao Jiu looks very handsome."

Gong Yu looked at Dai Ruyan next to him in the bronze mirror, Dai Ruyan's eyes were bright and mixed with joy, obviously satisfied.

"Ayan think I can be a good emperor?"

"Of course it is possible." Dai Ruyan leaned against Gong Yu and replied, "Although the current situation is unstable, it is possible to take this step and take care of them slowly in the future."

"Those court ministers may be waiting for me to make a mistake."

"Don't be afraid, I will take good care of Xiao Jiu."

Gong Yu looked sideways at Dai Ruyan, knowing that Dai Ruyan obviously had control and understanding of the situation in the courtroom.

This court has become Dai Ruyan's new chessboard, but who will be Dai Ruyan's chess player?

"I'm a little hungry."

Dai Ruyan poked Gongyu's cheek lightly and said, "You can't talk about me anymore, Xiao Jiu has to talk about me."

Gong Yu turned his head to one side, and after a long time, Dai Ruyan arranged the crown and fell to one side.

"I didn't do it on purpose." Gong Yu stretched out his hand to support the crown in a funny way: "Madam, help me quickly."

"I'm going to call my queen again." Dai Ruyan stood on tiptoe and said helplessly.

"The queen doesn't sound good at all."

"You have to call if it doesn't sound good."

Gong Yu pulled on his overcoat and said, "Then why does Ayan still call me Xiao Jiu?"

"If I don't call you Xiaojiu, what should I call you?"

"Of course, Your Majesty."

Dai Ruyan smiled, then imitated Gong Yu's tone and said, "Your Majesty doesn't sound good at all."

"Ayan, this is not right." Gong Yu stretched her arms around Dai Ruyan in front of her, rubbed Dai Ruyan's cheek and said, "These days I was listening to the etiquette in the palace, and I was about to faint. I'm not happy to think that there will be such a long time in the future."

"Xiao Jiu is Your Majesty, who dares to talk about it?"

"Yes, for example, the daily living order to record daily life and food, or the historian who records the words and deeds of the court, how difficult it is to be an emperor."

Dai Ruyan leaned against Gong Yu and listened to Gong Yu's broken thoughts: "Why is Xiao Jiu worried about this?"

"Xiao Jiu is very obedient on weekdays. Historians have always been fair and won't write nonsense."

Gong Yu kissed the next generation Ruyan and asked in a low voice, "Is Ayan busy these days?"

"Fortunately, the arrangement of the affairs in the harem is actually only a matter of a few days."

At the end of the enthronement ceremony, Gong Yu looked at the pile of bookcases and suddenly wanted to strike.

It is no wonder that most emperors in ancient times were faint-hearted. Under this system, emperors could not die of exhaustion.

And there is no salary bonus, it is better to eat, drink and play all day.

After thinking about it, Gong Yu could only think about it. He summoned the Sixth Division, the Taifu and the Prime Minister to review these memorials in turn.

Taifu and the prime minister have always been at odds with each other, so Gong Yu simply asked them to supervise each other's affairs.

After several days of accumulated memorials, the preliminary review was completed. Qin Hua and Gongyu checked some of the key papers again.

At dusk, Gong Yu turned his neck and looked at the book in front of him and said, "These are all bad debts. Both the Taifu and the Prime Minister naturally don't want to worry about it. Does Mr. Qin have a better way?"

Qin Hua shook his head and said, "The interests of the prefectures and counties are colluding, falsely reporting grain, and taxation has been lost again and again. Unless someone is sent to conduct a thorough investigation, it needs to be uprooted."

"I also think so, so I want to let Mr. Qin take this position."

"Your Majesty should discuss this matter in the court."

Gong Yu shook his head and said: "They are all a nest of snakes and rats. As soon as the top notices a strict investigation, the bottom may already have three dens of cunning rabbits."

"Privately visit and collect evidence, I can write a secret edict to Mr. Qin."

"Your Majesty trusts me so much, and the sinner may be incompetent." Qin Huafu lowered his head.

"Mr. Qin, it's better to find out before the autumn harvest, otherwise I will be punished severely."

"The sinner leads the order."

In the middle of the night, Qin Hua left the palace with a secret edict written by Gong Yu and a group of guards.

Gong Yu stretched out her arms and rushed to the Queen's Palace to eat. Although the Queen's Palace was very close, the palace was so big that it was not easy to reach it all at once.

When entering the hall, Dai Ruyan was sitting on the side while holding her hands, and the meal had already been set.

"What are you eating today?"

Gong Yu said, approached and lifted the lid of the bowl.

Dai Ruyan closed the book and said, "Steamed sea bass."

"But these are cold, I'll let someone warm them up."

Gong Yu saw that it was completely dark outside, and knew that she was late.

Before the hot food was placed, Dai Ruyan took the soup and handed it to Gong Yu and asked, "Are you busy today?"

"It's okay, just to discuss things so I forgot the time."

"Ayan has been waiting for a long time." Gong Yu said apologetically while holding the hot soup.

"It's okay, I can read books, and the time will pass faster."

Dai Ruyan drank the soup in small mouthfuls, Gong Yu was very hungry and was busy eating.

The palace was very quiet for a while. The Queen's Palace was very close to the emperor's palace, and it was spacious and bright. The only bad thing was that once it was quiet, there would be an echo when speaking.

Gong Yu asked hesitantly, "Why don't Ah Yan move to my bedroom?"

"No."

"Why is this?"

In fact, this is not the first time Dai Ruyan has rejected Gong Yu's proposal.

Dai Ruyan never left the palace during the day, and Gongyu was busy most of the time in the palace or the imperial study.

Dai Ruyan used to like to stick to Gong Yu the most, but recently, for some unknown reason, she always felt a little cold.

Gong Yu sandwiched the fried very crispy chicken, and bit out a crackling sound dissatisfied.

But Dai Ruyan didn't stop it, instead, Gong Yuka rubbed and bit.

"This is not in the same hall, Ayan doesn't come to see me anymore." Gong Yu read in dissatisfaction.

"See what you do?"

Heartbroken!

"Ayan doesn't want me?" Gong Yu asked with wide eyes.

Dai Ruyan held the fish and handed it to Gong Yuzui and said, "You are busy right now, I know, but going there will disturb you."

"Don't bother." Gong Yu said like a cat being fed, eating the fish handed over, "I want to spend more time with Ayan."

"You and Mr. Qin have been chatting until late at night these days, and I can't do anything when I go."

So that's the root cause.

Gong Yu smiled and said, "Well, I won't let Mr. Qin come tomorrow."

"Why?"

"I want to accompany Mrs.

"If you neglect Madam, that's a crime and deserves death."

Dai Ruyan looked at Gong Yu helplessly and said, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

"Madam, will you promise me?"

"No queen has ever lived in the emperor's palace."

"There is now."

"Okay, then it's up to you."

Gong Yu held the soup bowl and lightly touched the next generation Ruyan bowl and said, "Let Jasper clean up later."

"Today?"

"yes."

Dai Ruyan pursed her lips and asked, "Then I won't get bored in front of you all day?"

"Won't."

People are so strange, at first Gong Yu was guarded by Dai Ruyan all day, and he was not used to it.

But it's only been a few days now, and Gong Yu misses the days when she could see Dai Ruyan as soon as she looked up.

And the hall is so big, it is not a problem for Dai Ruyan to stay in the hall all day long.

Just like this, Dai Ruyan moved into the emperor's palace that night, but it was only half a month ago that Gong Yu felt an inexplicable suffocation like a throat.

As Chongyang approached, the weather seemed to be getting a little cooler.

Gong Yu wanted to eat more iced lychees, but the palace maid told the empress to ban the thirst of lychees every day.

Back then, Gong Yu was someone who owned a fruit tree.

Of course, even the number of ice cubes used every day is accurate to the block, and it is even more extravagant to ask whether Gongyu is greedy and wants to eat a few bites of iced yogurt.

"How did Xiaojiu eat so little today?" Dai Ruyan asked in confusion when eating at night.

Gong Yu rolled up his sleeves and said confidently, "Ayan, I use the ice cubes in the palace according to the system of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, why are there additional restrictions?"

Dai Ruyan just said, "Xiao Jiu can't eat because of this?"

"Ayan knew that I didn't mean it that way."

"Your sunflower water is coming, and you will eat some iced ice again. It will hurt so much, what will you do?"

Gong Yu was speechless for a moment, biting the chicken wings helplessly and said, "But the heat hasn't subsided these few days, it's so hot, how could A-Yan make all the maids who are swinging the fan withdraw?"

Dai Ruyan stopped abruptly and said, "The two palace maids were indeed taken down by me."

and then?

This frank statement made Gong Yu unable to get angry.

"Why did Ayan take down those two palace maids?"

"I do not like."

The topic stopped for a while, Dai Ruyan drank the soup lightly with a wooden spoon in her hand, and stopped talking.

Gong Yu looked at Dai Ruyan's somewhat serious face and hurriedly said, "I don't like it, then I withdraw it, but I still need a fan in the hall sometimes."

"I asked Li Gonggong to find two clever and obedient father-in-law to serve Xiao Jiu."

male?

No, Gong Yu suddenly realized the importance of the matter.

"Could it be that the two palace maids did something wrong and made Ayan angry?"

"No."

"Really?" Gong Yu couldn't believe it.

Without thinking, Dai Ruyan suddenly put down the soup bowl in her hand and said, "I'm going to take a bath and rest."

Hey?

Gong Yu looked at Dai Ruyan's soup bowl, which was less than usual. She hurriedly reached out and grabbed Dai Ruyan and said, "No, Ayan eat more, I won't ask."

Dai Ruyan looked at Gong Yu with a serious face, and then picked up the wooden spoon again. Gong Yu put a piece of shiitake mushroom on Dai Ruyan's small plate and said, "Ah Yan's appetite recently?"

"good."

"It must be in a bad mood."

Sure enough, Dai Ruyan didn't refute, Gong Yu was mixing rice with soup, holding a wooden spoon and holding a small mouthful of rice and said, "Didn't you tell me? If Ayan is in a bad mood, tell me, don't be sulking yourself."

Dai Ruyan opened her mouth to eat the rice that Gong Yu handed over, Gong Yu asked with a smile, "Is it delicious?"

"A little salty."

The taste is really bland.

"Then why is Ayan unhappy?" Gong Yu asked, filling a mouthful of rice.

Dai Ruyan wiped the rice grains at the corner of Gong Yu's mouth with a handkerchief in her hand and said, "It's just a small matter."

"It's definitely not a trivial matter. Anything that can make Ayan unhappy is a big deal in my heart."

"This is nothing compared to Xiao Jiu's big event."

Gong Yu wrapped the green vegetables and wrapped the pickled radish on the side, poured it over the rice in a spoon and handed it to Dai Ruyan's mouth, saying: This is also super delicious. "

Dai Ruyan lowered her head to eat, and Gong Yu secretly discovered that if Dai Ruyan was being fed, she would eat more than usual.

"So what did the two palace maids do?"

"The two palace maids often turn their attention to Xiao Jiu. Hasn't Xiao Jiu been aware of it?"

Gong Yu was full of rice on the first floor, and she didn't understand Wang to think Dai Ruyan, and said vaguely: "I... how come I didn't find it?"

"stupid."

Dai Ruyan poured the tea, took a sip, and looked out into the darkness.

The sound of the cicadas faded, the breeze caressed the fine hair beside Dai Ruyan's cheeks through the open window, Gong Yu watched blankly.

"The Sixth Highness and the Fifth Highness proposed to return to the fief, Xiao Jiu has thought about it?" Dai Ruyan asked in a low voice with her eyes turned slightly.

Gong Yu held the soup bowl and said, "I chose two remote fiefs."

"His Royal Highness has always been extravagant and wasteful, if the fief is too poor
