County's main favorite wife
Chapter 43 Canonization
Cheng Yun calmed down a little after seeing Gu Li, and put down his sleeves. "You are the elder sister Li that Feng An talks about, and you are so beautiful. Feng An has loved beauties since he was a child, and the 'beautiful sister' he used to call is eighty if not one hundred. I wonder how long you can stay by her side?"
"I didn't..." Qin Qi was afraid that Gu Li might misunderstand, so he hurriedly explained.
Gu Li smiled and patted her on the shoulder.He raised his head and said to Cheng Yun, "Princess Miao Shuang must not be among these people."
Cheng Yun blushed immediately.Gu Li is saying that she is not up to the standard of beauty. "You don't have to be complacent, Feng An's speed of liking the new and disliking the old will make you understand that women from the Tian family should not be provoked, especially her."
"Miao Shuang, don't go too far!" Qin Qi was not easy to bully, he broke free from Gu Li's arms at this time, and Lu rolled up his sleeves and was about to move forward.
ah!The little rabbit is anxious and plans to bite!Gu Li's eyes widened, and he didn't intend to fight at all.
"Today is my mother's birthday, are you sure you want to make trouble here?" A sweet female voice came from behind.
The three turned their heads together, only to see a beautiful woman in a light blue palace gown approaching.There were two court ladies standing in the distance, but they did not follow.
"Cousin Yuqian!" Qin Qi called out.
"Cousin Yuqian." Cheng Yun saluted.
Gu Li just wanted to leave here right now.She took a step back indiscriminately, already considering a way out.
The visitor was none other than the emperor's daughter, Princess Yuqian, Cheng Yan, born to Concubine De, who was 16 years old this year.Seeing Gu Li backing away slightly, she smiled and said, "Senior Sister Gu Li, one or two years, don't come here without any problems."
Qin Qi and Cheng Yun turned their heads together, Gu Li saw that there was no way to retreat, so he nodded and said, "Junior Sister Cheng Yan, don't come here without any problems."
Qin Qi suddenly said: "Yes, cousin Yuqian also went to Feiyejin Academy to study. Then you have known each other for a long time?"
Gu Li nodded.But Cheng Yan said: "Not only do you know each other? My senior sister is a master apprentice of Master Wutang Jiang. Sometimes she will replace Master Jiang to teach us martial arts. It's a pity that my qualifications are mediocre, and after all, I failed to become the disciple of all masters." Speaking of this, Cheng Yan's eyes dimmed a bit.
For some reason, Qin Qi felt a little uncomfortable after hearing these words.She didn't participate in sister Li's past, but cousin Yuqian did.
"It's all in the past. Now the junior sister has returned to her status as a princess, and Gu Li has met Princess Yuqian." Gu Li saluted again, but it was a gift from a monarch and a minister.
Gu Li who knows the rules like this did not make Cheng Yan happy.She sighed, "Senior sister still refuses people thousands of miles away like that. After all, Feng'an is blessed." Her eyes showed envy.Turning her head to Cheng Yun again, she said, "Miao Shuang, Gu Li is my senior sister. In Mingxi's country, I don't allow anyone to hurt her! You heard me clearly."
Miao Shuang bowed her head and said yes.Qin Qi felt awkward when he heard this, and couldn't help but look back at Gu Li's reaction.Gu Li's reaction was a little awkward.When she was in Feiyejin Academy, Cheng Yan showed a different kind of affection for her.But she is devoted to martial arts with no other distractions.Cheng Yan's infatuation is destined not to be rewarded.
Later, Cheng Yan pretended to be crazy by drinking, and made a big fuss in Gu Li's yard.The head of the court asked Cheng Yan to go back to her residence to reflect on the name of violating the rules of the court.After that, Cheng Yan was not allowed to approach Gu Li again.Cheng Yan was disheartened, and just when the five-year term expired, she left Feiyejin.
Two years later, we meet again.Gu Li is still so beautiful.The difference is that now it is not Feiyejin, but Mingxi.As Mingxi's princess, she really has too many opportunities.
There was a sudden silence, and everyone was a little embarrassed.Qin Qi took Gu Li's arm and said, "Sister Li, let's go to the palace. I'm thirsty."
"Okay." Gu Li nodded towards Cheng Yan, and accompanied Qin Qi into the hall.
Cheng Yan didn't move, looked at the back of Gu Li leaving, and said softly: "Didn't you like Feng An since you were young?"
Miao Shuang stood there, a little hesitant after hearing this.After thinking for a while, he said, "Cousin likes Gu Li?"
Cheng Yan turned her head and met Cheng Yun's gaze, the two looked at each other and smiled, everything was kept in silence.
When Gu Li and Qin Qi returned to the palace, it happened that the eldest princess was also looking for them.Seeing them enter the door, he beckoned them to pass. "Where did you go? Today is a special day, so don't run around. Especially you." The eldest princess said to Qin Qi, "The emperor will issue a decree to announce the adoption of the adopted daughter in a while, and you must be present."
"Understood, mother." Qin Qi took Gu Li's hand, "Qiqi is right here, not going anywhere."
"That's the way to be good." The eldest princess and Qin Qi finished talking, then looked up at Gu Li, but said nothing.She believed that Gu Li understood what she meant.
Gu Li said: "Your Highness, I will stay with Qiqi."
"Good boy." The eldest princess left with satisfaction.
The two found a corner and sat down. "Sister Li, don't pay attention to Miao Shuang's words. Although I have loved beauties since I was a child, they are different from Sister Li. I really like you." Qin Qisheng was afraid that Gu Li might misunderstand, so he hurriedly explained whenever he had time.
Many people are not good at stroking around Gu Li, so they just smiled and said, "I can tell if you are sincere or not. You don't need to rush to explain, I won't misunderstand."
"En." Qin Qi nodded vigorously.Sister Li is smart!
"Then...can you tell me about your time in the academy when you have time?" After clarifying his own question, Qin Qi still cared about the relationship between Gu Li and Cheng Yan.The sensitivity between lovers made her immediately realize that Cheng Yan's feelings for Gu Li were definitely not ordinary teachers and sisters.
When Yi Jiachenxu and Jing Hanyou came here before, Gu Li acted much closer than Cheng Yan, and she didn't even notice the difference.Because that is the support and help of Qingru sisters.But Cheng Yan was different, Qin Qi felt that Gu Li was resistant to Cheng Yan, his junior.But now is not the time to ask, Qin Qi can only suppress his thoughts.
After Wu Siran returned to the hall, he was in a daze.Gu Yin saw that her mother was in poor spirits, and thought that she was tired from managing the family affairs in the past two days, so she came to support her and said, "Mother, what's wrong with you? Sit down and rest for a while."
Wu Siran sat on the chair, looked at his beautiful daughter, and thought about Gu Li's words, his heart couldn't help trembling.But she is not an ordinary woman, since Gu Li already knew what happened back then, she must get rid of Gu Li, and the sooner the better.She must not let Gu Li destroy the Gu family.If she doesn't talk about herself like that, what should her children do?
"I'm fine, you don't need to accompany me. Go talk to Concubine Xian." The eldest lady pointed.
Gu Yin understood what her mother meant, and nodded with a blushing face.
Everyone waited for a while, and the roll-call eunuch at the door sang loudly: "The emperor and the empress are here!"
A room of children and family members knelt down one after another, kowtowing to the emperor and empress.
"Pingshen." Emperor Zhengyun also held a banquet in the previous dynasty.At this moment, I deliberately left the table and came to the harem to show up with the queen, and by the way, announce the matter of the eldest princess' adoptive daughter.
Everyone got up and sat down according to their rank.The emperor and queen all said some scene words.The queen knew that Emperor Zhengyun was busy, so she smiled and said to the eldest princess: "Rong'er, where is Miss Gu family?"
The eyes of the eldest princess fell on Gu Li, the eyes of the emperor and the empress also fell on Gu Li, and the eyes of everyone present naturally fell on Gu Li.Under the attention of everyone, Gu Li still had a flat expression, neither sad nor happy.She walked out of the crowd and said salutingly: "My daughter, Gu Li, sees the emperor and empress."
Emperor Zhengyun raised his eyebrows with interest, isn't this quite a rule?What the queen noticed was Gu Li's face.She is so bright and moving, she has never seen it in her life.There are so many beauties in the harem, none of them can match.Such a woman, if she has the heart, will make a lot of waves.
Emperor Zhengyun waved his hand lightly and said, "Xuan!"
Xilu on the side took the imperial decree from the eunuch and read it loudly: "Shangyu: Here is Gu Li, the eldest daughter of the Gu family. Canonize Gu Li as princess, title Suian. Reward a thousand taels of gold, ten bolts of brocade, eight dendrobium pearls, and a pair of jade Ruyi. This is my honor."
Gu Li received the imperial edict with his hands above his head. "Your Majesty leads the decree, long live your Majesty." She stood up, followed the etiquette, and knelt down in front of the eldest princess. "My mother-in-law, please be respected by Gu Li."
The eldest princess' eyes were a little moist.This poor child has finally come under his wing, so he doesn't have to worry about her all day long. "Good boy, get up."
Qin Qi on the side smiled and clapped his hands and said: "Great! Sister Li has really become my sister now, let's see who will dare to bully you in the future." Her voice was clear and clear, and everyone present could hear it clearly.They all looked at Wu Siran and the Gu family sisters.The members of the Gu family were already gritted their teeth secretly by Gu Li's wind.At this moment, the crowd was watching again, all of them lowered their heads, pretending not to care.
"Qiqi, don't talk nonsense." The eldest princess seemed to reprimand Qin Qi, but her tone was gentle, and there was no sense of reprimanding at all.
The Queen said: "The Eldest Princess has adopted a daughter-in-law, and His Majesty has conferred the title of Princess Sui'an. This Palace must also reward you. Come here."
The maid next to the queen brought a tray to Gu Li.The queen said: "This palace rewards Princess Sui'an, please open it and have a look."
Gu Li casually lifted the yellow silk on the tray, only to see a dagger in the tray.
The people around stretching their necks to watch were slightly taken aback when they saw the dagger, but they didn't know what the queen meant.The eldest princess narrowed her eyes slightly when she saw the dagger, and looked up at the queen.
"Suian, this dagger is called Cangbo. It is an ancestral item of my mother's family, and it is also my dowry. Today I will give it to you. I hope I have found a good owner for it." The Queen's voice He was not in a hurry, his gaze was always on the Cangbo dagger, obviously he had feelings for it.
Gu Li wasn't sure whether he should accept such a reward, and quietly turned his head to look at the eldest princess, who nodded slightly.Gu Li knelt down again to accept the award.
After all, today is the Empress's birthday banquet, and only the Eldest Princess has the face to be so outrageous.Emperor Zhengyun saw that he had said everything he needed to say, and there was still a large group of courtiers waiting, so he got up and left the banquet to go to the front court.Congratulations from everyone.
Without the emperor, the female relatives obviously relaxed a lot.Gu Li observed, it was obvious that the queen was not a person who treated her subjects harshly.She was sitting at the same table with Qin Qi at this time, and after the banquet started, the plate in front of her was already full of various foods, all of which Qin Qi picked for her.
"Qiqi, I can't fit it in the dish." Gu Li was helpless.
"You want to eat." Qin Qi was also helpless.Gu Li barely touched the food at the banquet.
"I'm not hungry, you can eat yourself." Gu Li had no appetite at all.Anyone who is stared at by one person for so long will lose their appetite.
Ever since she accepted the canonization, Princess Yuqian Cheng Yan's eyes never left her body.Although she didn't pay attention to Cheng Yan intentionally, that kind of substantive gaze was really uncomfortable.Afraid that Qin Qi would misunderstand, Gu Li still had to pretend nothing had happened, so tired!
While toasting and drinking, the queen suggested that these young ladies write some poems to have a look.Naturally, talented young ladies gathered together to write poems and lyrics at the desk.Qin Qi also ran to watch the excitement.Gu Li just stole the limelight, but now he doesn't want to attract anyone's attention.
Cheng Yan approached beside her, and said with a smile: "Aren't you going, senior sister? I remember that when you were in the academy, your literary talents were always praised by Master Lu."
Since he couldn't avoid it, there was no need for Gu Li to deliberately avoid it. "Princess should know my temperament. Apart from martial arts, I'm not interested in anything else. These fame and wealth are like floating clouds, but I can't bring them back to Fei Yejin."
The title "Princess" really made Cheng Yan unhappy. "Sister, is she willing to offer her peace?" She turned her head to look at Qin Qi who was smiling and turning around in the crowd over there.
Gu Li smiled but said nothing.There is no need to tell people who have nothing to do with the relationship between her and Qin Qi.
"Isn't it good to stay in Mingxi?" There was a trace of resentment in Cheng Yan's tone.
"This is not Feiyejin." This reason is enough.Life in the academy is simple and peaceful.Some people always think that the life in the academy is monotonous and boring, but she is very adaptable.It is such a monotonous life that allows her to concentrate on practicing martial arts without distractions.
"Liar!" Cheng Yan cursed in her heart.Gu Li two years ago was cold from the inside out.At that time, she felt that as long as Senior Sister Gu Li could smile at her, she would be able to blush and be happy all day long.But Gu Li didn't like to laugh.It's not the deliberately indifferent kind, it's just plain and emotionless.It is rare for outsiders to find happiness, anger, sorrow and joy in Gu Li.It was as if there was no one in this world worthy of her care except for the few people in charge of the courtyard, Master Jiang, Senior Sister, and Senior Sister Jingsu.
But now?Senior Sister Gu Li looked at Feng An's eyes... Outsiders might not think much of it, but she knew that it was full of tenderness and pampering.How could such a silly girl who was laughing and joking all day long attract Senior Sister Gu Li's attention?Cheng Yan didn't understand, she had been thinking about this question ever since she saw Gu Li, but she didn't have an answer.
"Sister Li!" Qin Qi returned to Gu Li, saw Cheng Yan waving and said, "Cousin Yuqian, why don't you go and have a look? Sister Qi from the Wei family wrote a song "Wu Ye Cry", which is very beautiful .”
Cheng Yan said: "I was about to go, I passed by your table, I saw the senior sister, and chatted for a while." She said and left to watch the ladies write poems and lyrics.
Qin Qi looked at Cheng Yan's leaving figure and fell into deep thought.
"What are you thinking?" Gu Li asked.
"Cousin Yuqian, I like talking to you very much." Qin Qi said.
Gu Li didn't deny it, and asked with a smile, "So? What did you think of?"
Qin Qi hugged Gu Li's arm tightly, pouted and said, "Sister Li is Qi Qi!"
Hehe, the look of the little rabbit domineeringly swearing its sovereignty made Gu Li laugh so hard.For the sake of her own image, she buried her face in her arms and shrugged her shoulders with a smile.
"Sister Li!" Qin Qi was a little confused, what is so ridiculous? "What I said is true!"
"It's true, it's true." Gu Li nodded hurriedly.She pulled Qin Qi over and whispered in his ear, "I belong to you alone."
Qin Qi squinted, feeling so happy!
On the other side, a young lady said softly: "Princess, your ink has dripped on the paper."
Cheng Yan came back to her senses, ordered someone to lay down a new piece of paper, and wrote a poem again.
There was no singing and dancing at the banquet, it was all the ladies showing off their talents to add to the fun.The poems have not been finished yet, and all kinds of musical instruments have been placed here.
A young lady stepped forward to play a musical instrument, which won rounds of applause from everyone.After a few people passed by, I heard Concubine Wu Xian say: "Your Majesty, I heard that Princess Sui'an's pipa skills are superb. I wonder if my concubine is lucky enough to enjoy the pipa today?"
The eyes of the queen and everyone present fell on Gu Li.Even Qin Qi beside him tilted his head to look at her.
"Suian, would you like to play a piece in public?" The queen asked very politely.
Gu Li got up to salute, and walked slowly into the arena.After taking the pipa and plucking the strings lightly, she sat on the chair, twirled her fingers, and the music poured out from her fingertips.
The Queen's expression froze after hearing the beginning, and she looked at Gu Li with deep eyes.Gu Li's expression was peaceful, he gently hugged and twisted slowly, like pearls falling on a jade plate.Coupled with that unparalleled beauty, it makes people feel like listening to fairy music.
After the song was over, the audience was silent.It took a long time for the empress to praise: "What a song "Remaining Sounds of a Prosperous Age"! I was lucky enough to listen to it once when I was young, and it is still unforgettable. I don't want to be able to listen to it again today, Suian, I am very satisfied with your generous gift."
Gu Li put down his pipa and bowed to salute. "Ming Xi's sea is clean and the river is clear, the people are safe and the country is peaceful, and this song "Remaining Sounds of a Prosperous Age" should be matched." She did not deliberately praise the queen, but she praised Ming Xi. As the mother of Ming Xi, the queen is naturally happy.
"No wonder the eldest princess likes you so much. If she hadn't acted quickly, I would definitely accept you as a princess." The queen knew Fei Yejin's background and never dared to underestimate Gu Li.
"Thank you, Empress, for your kindness." Gu Li bowed again to salute.This time, he showed a smile to save face.Not because of anything else, but because the queen is a bosom friend, she actually recognized this piece as "Remaining Sounds of a Prosperous Age".
This song was composed by the head of Feiyejin Academy.Gu Li inherited the musical talent of his mother Yao Chuxue, and has an amazing talent on the pipa.The master has never taught this song to anyone, but she often goes to Feihua Xiaozhu in the master, and she will be able to listen to it a few times.
Later, when she practiced this piece by herself, she was overheard by the director, and Gu Li thought that the director would be angry.Unexpectedly, the headmaster smiled and praised her.And told her that the song was called "The Remnant of a Prosperous Age".
"The person who recognizes this song should be at least 30 years old. Xiaoli, remember, the person who can tell the name of this song must not be a bad person." That's what the director said at the time.
Gu Li's smile made the Queen's heart tremble.She really is a beauty, even though she is also a woman, she is still heart-wrenching to see.
"Madam Gu." The queen said to Wu Siran: "Your Gu family has such a good girl as Suian, I really envy you."
After hearing this, Wu Siran forced a smile and said: "The empress is ridiculously praised. Li'er doesn't understand the rules, so just don't offend the majesty of the Tian family." She was still thinking about what Gu Li said before, and she heard someone praise Gu Li. Li subconsciously replied this sentence.
The eldest princess frowned when she heard this.The queen has spoken. "Madam Gu, although Sui'an is the daughter of the Gu family, she is now the princess, so you should pay more attention to the regulations."
After hearing this, Wu Siran understood that the queen was saying that she didn't understand the rules.She is ordered by the third rank, but Gu Li is already the princess, and her rank is far above her.Although they are mother and daughter in name, they already have different identities.Little did he know that it was precisely because of this that Wu Siran felt annoyed.The daughter of a woman from Lefang, what a scumbag, actually climbed to the position of princess, thinking about it, I feel that God is unfair!
Gu Yin and Gu Xuan next to Wu Siran originally planned to go out to play the piano, but Gu Li played a pipa in front of him, and the two thought that their skills were inferior to others, so they had to give up.Especially Gu Yin, this is a rare opportunity to show off her talents in front of Concubine Wu Xian, and she can only miss it.She looked at the highly praised Gu Li in the field, and she hated him so much that she just wanted to kill someone.
Concubine Wu Xian saw that her sister was said, and said: "A beauty like Princess Sui'an, I don't know which family will be lucky in the future to marry the princess as a daughter-in-law? Empress, the concubine is very happy to see Princess Sui'an Xinyi, I wonder if I can fight for King Rui?" She said this very skillfully.The casual tone was like a joke.Of course, if you take it as a joke, it is a joke.If you don't take it as a joke, it's not a joke.
As soon as these words came out, the empress, princess and Gu Li raised their eyebrows slightly.Before the eldest princess had time to speak, the queen said: "Concubine Xian, King Rui is a good one, and I like it too. It's a pity that Sui'an is a princess, so there is absolutely no reason to be a side concubine, don't you think so?"
Concubine Wu Xian's expression remained unchanged.What she said today was just testing.Sure enough, when Gu Li became the princess, the status of the side concubine was somewhat lowered.
"The empress is right. The concubine also really loves the princess, but she made a mistake." Concubine Wu Xian said with a smile, as if what she just said was really a joke.
The eldest princess said: "I have just adopted Li'er as a foster daughter, but I am reluctant to marry her off so soon. No matter what, I have to stay by my side for three to five years."
As soon as this remark came out, some people began to discuss.Gu Li's age is no secret.She is seventeen this year, and she is too old to marry immediately.How about another three to five years?Does the eldest princess love Gu Li or hate Gu Li?Aren't you afraid that staying here and staying will cause sorrow?
Gu Li and Qin Qi understood the meaning of the eldest princess' words, and they used such words to dispel other people's coveting hearts.The eldest princess almost said directly: "I don't want to part with Gu Li. If I want to keep it for three or five years, don't even think about it."
The author has something to say: Thank you Sifan for the mine, I love you~~~
It's hot~~~~
"I didn't..." Qin Qi was afraid that Gu Li might misunderstand, so he hurriedly explained.
Gu Li smiled and patted her on the shoulder.He raised his head and said to Cheng Yun, "Princess Miao Shuang must not be among these people."
Cheng Yun blushed immediately.Gu Li is saying that she is not up to the standard of beauty. "You don't have to be complacent, Feng An's speed of liking the new and disliking the old will make you understand that women from the Tian family should not be provoked, especially her."
"Miao Shuang, don't go too far!" Qin Qi was not easy to bully, he broke free from Gu Li's arms at this time, and Lu rolled up his sleeves and was about to move forward.
ah!The little rabbit is anxious and plans to bite!Gu Li's eyes widened, and he didn't intend to fight at all.
"Today is my mother's birthday, are you sure you want to make trouble here?" A sweet female voice came from behind.
The three turned their heads together, only to see a beautiful woman in a light blue palace gown approaching.There were two court ladies standing in the distance, but they did not follow.
"Cousin Yuqian!" Qin Qi called out.
"Cousin Yuqian." Cheng Yun saluted.
Gu Li just wanted to leave here right now.She took a step back indiscriminately, already considering a way out.
The visitor was none other than the emperor's daughter, Princess Yuqian, Cheng Yan, born to Concubine De, who was 16 years old this year.Seeing Gu Li backing away slightly, she smiled and said, "Senior Sister Gu Li, one or two years, don't come here without any problems."
Qin Qi and Cheng Yun turned their heads together, Gu Li saw that there was no way to retreat, so he nodded and said, "Junior Sister Cheng Yan, don't come here without any problems."
Qin Qi suddenly said: "Yes, cousin Yuqian also went to Feiyejin Academy to study. Then you have known each other for a long time?"
Gu Li nodded.But Cheng Yan said: "Not only do you know each other? My senior sister is a master apprentice of Master Wutang Jiang. Sometimes she will replace Master Jiang to teach us martial arts. It's a pity that my qualifications are mediocre, and after all, I failed to become the disciple of all masters." Speaking of this, Cheng Yan's eyes dimmed a bit.
For some reason, Qin Qi felt a little uncomfortable after hearing these words.She didn't participate in sister Li's past, but cousin Yuqian did.
"It's all in the past. Now the junior sister has returned to her status as a princess, and Gu Li has met Princess Yuqian." Gu Li saluted again, but it was a gift from a monarch and a minister.
Gu Li who knows the rules like this did not make Cheng Yan happy.She sighed, "Senior sister still refuses people thousands of miles away like that. After all, Feng'an is blessed." Her eyes showed envy.Turning her head to Cheng Yun again, she said, "Miao Shuang, Gu Li is my senior sister. In Mingxi's country, I don't allow anyone to hurt her! You heard me clearly."
Miao Shuang bowed her head and said yes.Qin Qi felt awkward when he heard this, and couldn't help but look back at Gu Li's reaction.Gu Li's reaction was a little awkward.When she was in Feiyejin Academy, Cheng Yan showed a different kind of affection for her.But she is devoted to martial arts with no other distractions.Cheng Yan's infatuation is destined not to be rewarded.
Later, Cheng Yan pretended to be crazy by drinking, and made a big fuss in Gu Li's yard.The head of the court asked Cheng Yan to go back to her residence to reflect on the name of violating the rules of the court.After that, Cheng Yan was not allowed to approach Gu Li again.Cheng Yan was disheartened, and just when the five-year term expired, she left Feiyejin.
Two years later, we meet again.Gu Li is still so beautiful.The difference is that now it is not Feiyejin, but Mingxi.As Mingxi's princess, she really has too many opportunities.
There was a sudden silence, and everyone was a little embarrassed.Qin Qi took Gu Li's arm and said, "Sister Li, let's go to the palace. I'm thirsty."
"Okay." Gu Li nodded towards Cheng Yan, and accompanied Qin Qi into the hall.
Cheng Yan didn't move, looked at the back of Gu Li leaving, and said softly: "Didn't you like Feng An since you were young?"
Miao Shuang stood there, a little hesitant after hearing this.After thinking for a while, he said, "Cousin likes Gu Li?"
Cheng Yan turned her head and met Cheng Yun's gaze, the two looked at each other and smiled, everything was kept in silence.
When Gu Li and Qin Qi returned to the palace, it happened that the eldest princess was also looking for them.Seeing them enter the door, he beckoned them to pass. "Where did you go? Today is a special day, so don't run around. Especially you." The eldest princess said to Qin Qi, "The emperor will issue a decree to announce the adoption of the adopted daughter in a while, and you must be present."
"Understood, mother." Qin Qi took Gu Li's hand, "Qiqi is right here, not going anywhere."
"That's the way to be good." The eldest princess and Qin Qi finished talking, then looked up at Gu Li, but said nothing.She believed that Gu Li understood what she meant.
Gu Li said: "Your Highness, I will stay with Qiqi."
"Good boy." The eldest princess left with satisfaction.
The two found a corner and sat down. "Sister Li, don't pay attention to Miao Shuang's words. Although I have loved beauties since I was a child, they are different from Sister Li. I really like you." Qin Qisheng was afraid that Gu Li might misunderstand, so he hurriedly explained whenever he had time.
Many people are not good at stroking around Gu Li, so they just smiled and said, "I can tell if you are sincere or not. You don't need to rush to explain, I won't misunderstand."
"En." Qin Qi nodded vigorously.Sister Li is smart!
"Then...can you tell me about your time in the academy when you have time?" After clarifying his own question, Qin Qi still cared about the relationship between Gu Li and Cheng Yan.The sensitivity between lovers made her immediately realize that Cheng Yan's feelings for Gu Li were definitely not ordinary teachers and sisters.
When Yi Jiachenxu and Jing Hanyou came here before, Gu Li acted much closer than Cheng Yan, and she didn't even notice the difference.Because that is the support and help of Qingru sisters.But Cheng Yan was different, Qin Qi felt that Gu Li was resistant to Cheng Yan, his junior.But now is not the time to ask, Qin Qi can only suppress his thoughts.
After Wu Siran returned to the hall, he was in a daze.Gu Yin saw that her mother was in poor spirits, and thought that she was tired from managing the family affairs in the past two days, so she came to support her and said, "Mother, what's wrong with you? Sit down and rest for a while."
Wu Siran sat on the chair, looked at his beautiful daughter, and thought about Gu Li's words, his heart couldn't help trembling.But she is not an ordinary woman, since Gu Li already knew what happened back then, she must get rid of Gu Li, and the sooner the better.She must not let Gu Li destroy the Gu family.If she doesn't talk about herself like that, what should her children do?
"I'm fine, you don't need to accompany me. Go talk to Concubine Xian." The eldest lady pointed.
Gu Yin understood what her mother meant, and nodded with a blushing face.
Everyone waited for a while, and the roll-call eunuch at the door sang loudly: "The emperor and the empress are here!"
A room of children and family members knelt down one after another, kowtowing to the emperor and empress.
"Pingshen." Emperor Zhengyun also held a banquet in the previous dynasty.At this moment, I deliberately left the table and came to the harem to show up with the queen, and by the way, announce the matter of the eldest princess' adoptive daughter.
Everyone got up and sat down according to their rank.The emperor and queen all said some scene words.The queen knew that Emperor Zhengyun was busy, so she smiled and said to the eldest princess: "Rong'er, where is Miss Gu family?"
The eyes of the eldest princess fell on Gu Li, the eyes of the emperor and the empress also fell on Gu Li, and the eyes of everyone present naturally fell on Gu Li.Under the attention of everyone, Gu Li still had a flat expression, neither sad nor happy.She walked out of the crowd and said salutingly: "My daughter, Gu Li, sees the emperor and empress."
Emperor Zhengyun raised his eyebrows with interest, isn't this quite a rule?What the queen noticed was Gu Li's face.She is so bright and moving, she has never seen it in her life.There are so many beauties in the harem, none of them can match.Such a woman, if she has the heart, will make a lot of waves.
Emperor Zhengyun waved his hand lightly and said, "Xuan!"
Xilu on the side took the imperial decree from the eunuch and read it loudly: "Shangyu: Here is Gu Li, the eldest daughter of the Gu family. Canonize Gu Li as princess, title Suian. Reward a thousand taels of gold, ten bolts of brocade, eight dendrobium pearls, and a pair of jade Ruyi. This is my honor."
Gu Li received the imperial edict with his hands above his head. "Your Majesty leads the decree, long live your Majesty." She stood up, followed the etiquette, and knelt down in front of the eldest princess. "My mother-in-law, please be respected by Gu Li."
The eldest princess' eyes were a little moist.This poor child has finally come under his wing, so he doesn't have to worry about her all day long. "Good boy, get up."
Qin Qi on the side smiled and clapped his hands and said: "Great! Sister Li has really become my sister now, let's see who will dare to bully you in the future." Her voice was clear and clear, and everyone present could hear it clearly.They all looked at Wu Siran and the Gu family sisters.The members of the Gu family were already gritted their teeth secretly by Gu Li's wind.At this moment, the crowd was watching again, all of them lowered their heads, pretending not to care.
"Qiqi, don't talk nonsense." The eldest princess seemed to reprimand Qin Qi, but her tone was gentle, and there was no sense of reprimanding at all.
The Queen said: "The Eldest Princess has adopted a daughter-in-law, and His Majesty has conferred the title of Princess Sui'an. This Palace must also reward you. Come here."
The maid next to the queen brought a tray to Gu Li.The queen said: "This palace rewards Princess Sui'an, please open it and have a look."
Gu Li casually lifted the yellow silk on the tray, only to see a dagger in the tray.
The people around stretching their necks to watch were slightly taken aback when they saw the dagger, but they didn't know what the queen meant.The eldest princess narrowed her eyes slightly when she saw the dagger, and looked up at the queen.
"Suian, this dagger is called Cangbo. It is an ancestral item of my mother's family, and it is also my dowry. Today I will give it to you. I hope I have found a good owner for it." The Queen's voice He was not in a hurry, his gaze was always on the Cangbo dagger, obviously he had feelings for it.
Gu Li wasn't sure whether he should accept such a reward, and quietly turned his head to look at the eldest princess, who nodded slightly.Gu Li knelt down again to accept the award.
After all, today is the Empress's birthday banquet, and only the Eldest Princess has the face to be so outrageous.Emperor Zhengyun saw that he had said everything he needed to say, and there was still a large group of courtiers waiting, so he got up and left the banquet to go to the front court.Congratulations from everyone.
Without the emperor, the female relatives obviously relaxed a lot.Gu Li observed, it was obvious that the queen was not a person who treated her subjects harshly.She was sitting at the same table with Qin Qi at this time, and after the banquet started, the plate in front of her was already full of various foods, all of which Qin Qi picked for her.
"Qiqi, I can't fit it in the dish." Gu Li was helpless.
"You want to eat." Qin Qi was also helpless.Gu Li barely touched the food at the banquet.
"I'm not hungry, you can eat yourself." Gu Li had no appetite at all.Anyone who is stared at by one person for so long will lose their appetite.
Ever since she accepted the canonization, Princess Yuqian Cheng Yan's eyes never left her body.Although she didn't pay attention to Cheng Yan intentionally, that kind of substantive gaze was really uncomfortable.Afraid that Qin Qi would misunderstand, Gu Li still had to pretend nothing had happened, so tired!
While toasting and drinking, the queen suggested that these young ladies write some poems to have a look.Naturally, talented young ladies gathered together to write poems and lyrics at the desk.Qin Qi also ran to watch the excitement.Gu Li just stole the limelight, but now he doesn't want to attract anyone's attention.
Cheng Yan approached beside her, and said with a smile: "Aren't you going, senior sister? I remember that when you were in the academy, your literary talents were always praised by Master Lu."
Since he couldn't avoid it, there was no need for Gu Li to deliberately avoid it. "Princess should know my temperament. Apart from martial arts, I'm not interested in anything else. These fame and wealth are like floating clouds, but I can't bring them back to Fei Yejin."
The title "Princess" really made Cheng Yan unhappy. "Sister, is she willing to offer her peace?" She turned her head to look at Qin Qi who was smiling and turning around in the crowd over there.
Gu Li smiled but said nothing.There is no need to tell people who have nothing to do with the relationship between her and Qin Qi.
"Isn't it good to stay in Mingxi?" There was a trace of resentment in Cheng Yan's tone.
"This is not Feiyejin." This reason is enough.Life in the academy is simple and peaceful.Some people always think that the life in the academy is monotonous and boring, but she is very adaptable.It is such a monotonous life that allows her to concentrate on practicing martial arts without distractions.
"Liar!" Cheng Yan cursed in her heart.Gu Li two years ago was cold from the inside out.At that time, she felt that as long as Senior Sister Gu Li could smile at her, she would be able to blush and be happy all day long.But Gu Li didn't like to laugh.It's not the deliberately indifferent kind, it's just plain and emotionless.It is rare for outsiders to find happiness, anger, sorrow and joy in Gu Li.It was as if there was no one in this world worthy of her care except for the few people in charge of the courtyard, Master Jiang, Senior Sister, and Senior Sister Jingsu.
But now?Senior Sister Gu Li looked at Feng An's eyes... Outsiders might not think much of it, but she knew that it was full of tenderness and pampering.How could such a silly girl who was laughing and joking all day long attract Senior Sister Gu Li's attention?Cheng Yan didn't understand, she had been thinking about this question ever since she saw Gu Li, but she didn't have an answer.
"Sister Li!" Qin Qi returned to Gu Li, saw Cheng Yan waving and said, "Cousin Yuqian, why don't you go and have a look? Sister Qi from the Wei family wrote a song "Wu Ye Cry", which is very beautiful .”
Cheng Yan said: "I was about to go, I passed by your table, I saw the senior sister, and chatted for a while." She said and left to watch the ladies write poems and lyrics.
Qin Qi looked at Cheng Yan's leaving figure and fell into deep thought.
"What are you thinking?" Gu Li asked.
"Cousin Yuqian, I like talking to you very much." Qin Qi said.
Gu Li didn't deny it, and asked with a smile, "So? What did you think of?"
Qin Qi hugged Gu Li's arm tightly, pouted and said, "Sister Li is Qi Qi!"
Hehe, the look of the little rabbit domineeringly swearing its sovereignty made Gu Li laugh so hard.For the sake of her own image, she buried her face in her arms and shrugged her shoulders with a smile.
"Sister Li!" Qin Qi was a little confused, what is so ridiculous? "What I said is true!"
"It's true, it's true." Gu Li nodded hurriedly.She pulled Qin Qi over and whispered in his ear, "I belong to you alone."
Qin Qi squinted, feeling so happy!
On the other side, a young lady said softly: "Princess, your ink has dripped on the paper."
Cheng Yan came back to her senses, ordered someone to lay down a new piece of paper, and wrote a poem again.
There was no singing and dancing at the banquet, it was all the ladies showing off their talents to add to the fun.The poems have not been finished yet, and all kinds of musical instruments have been placed here.
A young lady stepped forward to play a musical instrument, which won rounds of applause from everyone.After a few people passed by, I heard Concubine Wu Xian say: "Your Majesty, I heard that Princess Sui'an's pipa skills are superb. I wonder if my concubine is lucky enough to enjoy the pipa today?"
The eyes of the queen and everyone present fell on Gu Li.Even Qin Qi beside him tilted his head to look at her.
"Suian, would you like to play a piece in public?" The queen asked very politely.
Gu Li got up to salute, and walked slowly into the arena.After taking the pipa and plucking the strings lightly, she sat on the chair, twirled her fingers, and the music poured out from her fingertips.
The Queen's expression froze after hearing the beginning, and she looked at Gu Li with deep eyes.Gu Li's expression was peaceful, he gently hugged and twisted slowly, like pearls falling on a jade plate.Coupled with that unparalleled beauty, it makes people feel like listening to fairy music.
After the song was over, the audience was silent.It took a long time for the empress to praise: "What a song "Remaining Sounds of a Prosperous Age"! I was lucky enough to listen to it once when I was young, and it is still unforgettable. I don't want to be able to listen to it again today, Suian, I am very satisfied with your generous gift."
Gu Li put down his pipa and bowed to salute. "Ming Xi's sea is clean and the river is clear, the people are safe and the country is peaceful, and this song "Remaining Sounds of a Prosperous Age" should be matched." She did not deliberately praise the queen, but she praised Ming Xi. As the mother of Ming Xi, the queen is naturally happy.
"No wonder the eldest princess likes you so much. If she hadn't acted quickly, I would definitely accept you as a princess." The queen knew Fei Yejin's background and never dared to underestimate Gu Li.
"Thank you, Empress, for your kindness." Gu Li bowed again to salute.This time, he showed a smile to save face.Not because of anything else, but because the queen is a bosom friend, she actually recognized this piece as "Remaining Sounds of a Prosperous Age".
This song was composed by the head of Feiyejin Academy.Gu Li inherited the musical talent of his mother Yao Chuxue, and has an amazing talent on the pipa.The master has never taught this song to anyone, but she often goes to Feihua Xiaozhu in the master, and she will be able to listen to it a few times.
Later, when she practiced this piece by herself, she was overheard by the director, and Gu Li thought that the director would be angry.Unexpectedly, the headmaster smiled and praised her.And told her that the song was called "The Remnant of a Prosperous Age".
"The person who recognizes this song should be at least 30 years old. Xiaoli, remember, the person who can tell the name of this song must not be a bad person." That's what the director said at the time.
Gu Li's smile made the Queen's heart tremble.She really is a beauty, even though she is also a woman, she is still heart-wrenching to see.
"Madam Gu." The queen said to Wu Siran: "Your Gu family has such a good girl as Suian, I really envy you."
After hearing this, Wu Siran forced a smile and said: "The empress is ridiculously praised. Li'er doesn't understand the rules, so just don't offend the majesty of the Tian family." She was still thinking about what Gu Li said before, and she heard someone praise Gu Li. Li subconsciously replied this sentence.
The eldest princess frowned when she heard this.The queen has spoken. "Madam Gu, although Sui'an is the daughter of the Gu family, she is now the princess, so you should pay more attention to the regulations."
After hearing this, Wu Siran understood that the queen was saying that she didn't understand the rules.She is ordered by the third rank, but Gu Li is already the princess, and her rank is far above her.Although they are mother and daughter in name, they already have different identities.Little did he know that it was precisely because of this that Wu Siran felt annoyed.The daughter of a woman from Lefang, what a scumbag, actually climbed to the position of princess, thinking about it, I feel that God is unfair!
Gu Yin and Gu Xuan next to Wu Siran originally planned to go out to play the piano, but Gu Li played a pipa in front of him, and the two thought that their skills were inferior to others, so they had to give up.Especially Gu Yin, this is a rare opportunity to show off her talents in front of Concubine Wu Xian, and she can only miss it.She looked at the highly praised Gu Li in the field, and she hated him so much that she just wanted to kill someone.
Concubine Wu Xian saw that her sister was said, and said: "A beauty like Princess Sui'an, I don't know which family will be lucky in the future to marry the princess as a daughter-in-law? Empress, the concubine is very happy to see Princess Sui'an Xinyi, I wonder if I can fight for King Rui?" She said this very skillfully.The casual tone was like a joke.Of course, if you take it as a joke, it is a joke.If you don't take it as a joke, it's not a joke.
As soon as these words came out, the empress, princess and Gu Li raised their eyebrows slightly.Before the eldest princess had time to speak, the queen said: "Concubine Xian, King Rui is a good one, and I like it too. It's a pity that Sui'an is a princess, so there is absolutely no reason to be a side concubine, don't you think so?"
Concubine Wu Xian's expression remained unchanged.What she said today was just testing.Sure enough, when Gu Li became the princess, the status of the side concubine was somewhat lowered.
"The empress is right. The concubine also really loves the princess, but she made a mistake." Concubine Wu Xian said with a smile, as if what she just said was really a joke.
The eldest princess said: "I have just adopted Li'er as a foster daughter, but I am reluctant to marry her off so soon. No matter what, I have to stay by my side for three to five years."
As soon as this remark came out, some people began to discuss.Gu Li's age is no secret.She is seventeen this year, and she is too old to marry immediately.How about another three to five years?Does the eldest princess love Gu Li or hate Gu Li?Aren't you afraid that staying here and staying will cause sorrow?
Gu Li and Qin Qi understood the meaning of the eldest princess' words, and they used such words to dispel other people's coveting hearts.The eldest princess almost said directly: "I don't want to part with Gu Li. If I want to keep it for three or five years, don't even think about it."
The author has something to say: Thank you Sifan for the mine, I love you~~~
It's hot~~~~
