Chapter 7

    Because the Prime Minister entered the palace to report the flood in Binzhou, the banquet in the palace ended soon. Until the end, Concubine Song Gui was in a state of panic, presumably she was frightened by Emperor Zhao's punishment today.

    The palace road was winding for a long time, and the sky was full of fine snow. On the way back to the palace, Jiang Niannian met Gu Changqing.

    Xu Shicai came out from the Xuanshi Hall after discussing the politics. It was Jiang Yunhai who held an umbrella and sent Prime Minister Gu out in person.

    "Niangniang, what a big snow today!" Zhenyu trotted all the way and propped up the umbrella on Jiang Niannian's head, "In such a cold day, Niangniang, you have to be careful!"

    Jiang Niannian also felt that she lifted her skirt and stepped on the snow, Carefully avoid the footprints of the person in front of you. Therefore, I did not see the afterglow of a string of palace lanterns in front of me, and the Prime Minister was also walking towards this side.

    Seeing Jiang Niannian, Gu Changqing seemed to pause for a moment, and then said lightly: "Concubine Chen is well." As soon as Jiang Niannian

    heard this voice, she thought that she might have accidentally collapsed her personality just now, so she quickly restrained her smile and became indifferent. Said: "It's you."

    "Is the Prime Minister's body getting better so quickly? Or... I'm not sick at all, and I want to deceive others after acting in a play?" Jiang Niannian looked at him vigilantly, not believing it at all. he.

    The corners of Gu Changqing's pale lips pursed tightly, and he coughed softly: "...it's the empress who misunderstood the minister."

    Jiang Niannian glanced at him, then looked away, "In the future, the prime minister must take care of his body, and he must not pass out in this palace again. I'm by my side. Although the previous offense, I don't care about it. But you are the subordinate of His Majesty the emperor's close minister. According to the status of a minister, I shouldn't have done this for you."

    Gu Changqing slowly raised his eyes, Hiding a very faint smile: "So, I thank the empress."

    In the late winter night, the moonlight became colder and colder, making Gu Changqing's face pale and almost transparent. Jiang Niannian only felt a thin layer of sweat dripping from his palms.

    I don't know why, obviously she successfully stopped the plot and nothing happened between her and Gu Changqing, but every time she saw Gu Changqing, she always felt a guilty conscience that she couldn't explain.

    Although Gu Changqing didn't like a flamboyant and coquettish woman like Concubine Jiang Chen, even though she was His Majesty's favorite woman, she was kind to him in the end. He was never used to owe others' kindness. Even if she hated him so much, he would find an opportunity to repay her for helping her that day.

    "I heard that Concubine Chu will be entering the palace in a few days, so I would like to congratulate the niece and sisters on getting together." Gu Changqing, wearing a plain white cloak, looked into her eyes, and said softly, "However, since the niece lives in the deep palace, you should always understand. , the heart of guarding against others is indispensable." The

    voice was rarely gentle.

    Concubine Jiang Chen raised her head slightly, glanced at him, and said instead: "Don't the Prime Minister understand that as a courtier, if he commits the following crimes and stirs up the relationship between the royal family, what crime will he be punished for? What's more, His Majesty is also very respectful. Sister's, but you are beating elder sister at will in front of this palace. The prime minister should mention it, it should be you."
