Chapter 374: 374 wake up
Chapter 374 Chapter 374 Awakening
Anyway, this matter is not urgent. After a day and a half, Shen Qianchen immediately stopped moving, sat down on Gu Jue's lap obediently, and smiled sweetly: "Okay, I will accompany you."
Gu Jue was stunned for a moment, and then he laughed. His half-lidded eyes became softer and softer, as if they were about to drip with water.
"Okay, you stay with me."
The corners of Gu Jue's lips were slightly raised in a charming arc, and he gently stroked her little face with his slender fingers, his voice low and hoarse.
His little girl is getting more and more beautiful!
In just one year, she was like a butterfly emerging from its cocoon, and like the buds on the branches fully blooming in the warm sunshine of spring.
Sai Xueqishuang's skin and lips as pink as petals are very beautiful. Her slender body already has exquisite curves and a slim fit.
She just looked at him quietly, and her whole body exuded an alluring beauty.
Gu Jue felt that his blood was heating up little by little, and his eyes were burning, as hot and dazzling as the summer sun.
Shen Qianchen's cheeks warmed slightly when he saw him, and an impulse suddenly arose in her heart to hear if his heartbeat was beating as fast as hers.
She felt that his heartbeat must be very fast.
Because I know I am favored, I am full of confidence.
Shen Qianchen's eyes were sparkling, and his whole body seemed to be energetic again after taking some miraculous medicine.
Her joy was clearly written on her face.
"And..." Gu Jue sighed and touched her smooth little face. The voice behind her was so low that only he could hear it. There are still four months until the little girl gets hairpins.
what else? Shen Qianchen blinked curiously, innocently.
"Ahem."
The sound of dry coughing outside broke the charming and ambiguous atmosphere in the room.
That was the sound of trembling wind.
Jingfeng didn't go in and waited patiently outside the hall. After a while, he heard Gu Jue's voice slowly coming from inside: "What's going on?"
Jingfeng exchanged a clear look with Amber who was guarding the eaves. Knowing that the prince had no intention of letting him in, he reported directly: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness has just woken up."
Gu Nanjin was seriously injured by Gu Lang this time. Even if Shen Qianchen took action and barely saved his life, there have been several recurrences in the past seven days, and his life was in danger several times. Every time, it was Shen Qianchen. Hang his life with a golden needle.
After the gust of wind was over, there was a long silence, with an occasional wisp of wind carrying moisture blowing slowly by.
Jingfeng stood there for a while, just when he was thinking about whether he should retreat wisely, two figures walked out of the hall, one was slender and tall, and the other was slender and graceful.
Gu Jue and Shen Qianchen came out of the Chunxi Hall side by side, and they went to the Yangxin Hall together.
Because Gu Nanjin's injury was too severe and he could not move at will, he still slept in the palace where the late emperor Gu Lang lived, with the crown prince always taking care of him.
Hearing the commotion outside, the Crown Princess quickly stood up and watched a pair of beautiful men slowly approaching with a complicated expression.
The Crown Princess wore a frosty white dark patterned gown with a horse-faced skirt of the same color. She only had a simple bun on her arm. She was dressed plainly, without makeup, and looked very haggard.
In the past seven days, she had not had a good rest. Not only did she have to take care of the seriously injured prince, but she also had to mourn for Gu Lang. Even though she hated Gu Lang in her heart, filial piety was the most important thing.
Shen Qianchen also asked the Crown Princess if she wanted to ask Liang Di to change her shift, but the Crown Princess refused, and Shen Qianchen ignored her.
"Uncle Nine Emperors, Aunt Nine Emperors." The Crown Princess bowed her knees and saluted the two of them respectfully.
Regardless of whether the Crown Princess had doubted whether Shen Qianchen and Gu Jue would do anything to the Crown Prince at the beginning, but these days, she has eyes, ears and a brain, and even a fool can understand that it is Shen Qianchen who is here. Hanging on the prince's life. Otherwise, with these useless imperial doctors, the prince would have gone to Hexi long ago.
Therefore, when the Crown Princess saw Shen Qianchen, her expression became more respectful every time.
Gu Nanjin was lying on the couch, covered with a thin quilt. She looked more haggard than the princess, so thin that her cheeks were bruised, but she seemed to be in her late thirties despite her weak talent.
He couldn't get up yet, so he said on the couch: "Uncle Nine Emperors, Aunt Nine Emperors, forgive me for being rude."
Gu Nanjin had already heard from both the Crown Princess and the Imperial Doctor who had saved him, and the look he looked at Shen Qianchen was extremely complicated, with gratitude, wonder, and some thoughtful speculations.
"Aunt Nine Emperors, thank you for saving the orphan." Gu Nanjin's voice was hoarse and weak. Just saying these two sentences seemed to have consumed most of his energy, and his breathing was rapid and messy.
Shen Qianchen didn't expect Gu Nanjin's gratitude, so he said bluntly, "Just thank Uncle Nine Emperors."
She saved him because Gu Jue asked her to save him.
Her words were too direct and too calm. In the past, the Crown Princess would have found them harsh and uncomfortable, but now she can only feel grateful.
The princess understood that once the prince died, even if she still had the emperor's eldest grandson, she would have no hope in the future.
Gu Nanjin gave a weak smile and turned his eyes to Gu Jue: "Uncle Nine Emperors, they say no thanks are given for a great favor, but I feel that the gratitude that should be expressed should not be spared."
"Thank you."
These three words represent Gu Nanjin's most sincere feelings at this moment.
He originally thought he was dead. That day, after he was stabbed by his father in the main hall of Yangxin Hall, he was bleeding and felt cold all over. Before he lost consciousness, he seemed to have seen his grandfather...
Unexpectedly, he came back alive after escaping from hell.
Until this moment, Gu Nanjin still felt as if he had been in another world, as if he had had a real nightmare.
Gu Jue just smiled faintly, with no emotion or anger on his face.
Then, Shen Qianchen walked to Gu Nanjin's bed and said in a businesslike manner: "I'm here to diagnose your pulse."
The Crown Princess immediately pulled Gu Nanjin's left hand out from under the thin quilt and gave way to Shen Qianchen.
Shen Qianchen checked Gu Nanjin's pulse again and gave him a new prescription.
The couple didn't stay long. After a cup of tea, they left hand in hand. From beginning to end, they didn't mention Gu Lang or the throne.
After the two people left, the palace became quiet, only the sound of Concubine Xiang's bamboo curtain swaying slightly echoed, and after a while, it was completely silent.
The people outside had gone away, but the Crown Princess still stared blankly in the direction of Concubine Xiang's curtain, with some shame on her face, and pursed her dry lips.
As soon as the prince woke up, Gu Jue came in a hurry. She was originally afraid that the purpose of Gu Jue's coming here was to manipulate the prince and make him make a statement, but Gu Jue didn't say a word.
Gu Jue just came over to see the prince, and then left, which made the prince feel like he was judging a gentleman with a villain's heart.
Even if the Crown Princess didn't say anything, Gu Nanjin could guess what the Crown Princess was thinking. He smiled and said softly: "I once said that Uncle Nine Emperors is an open-minded person." If Gu Jue wants the throne, he will ask for it. He wants the throne and will not say some high-sounding words to force himself. Gu Jue is a very proud person and he disdains playing some cheap tricks.
Gu Jue and his father are really two different people.
A glimmer of light quickly flashed across Gu Nanjin's eyes, his fists suddenly tightened under the thin quilt, and he sighed: "You are thinking too much."
The Crown Princess responded obediently and tucked him into bed. She also knew that the current situation between her and the prince was on thin ice, and the "person" who caused all this had passed away, leaving this place of feathers behind.
The Crown Princess's head began to hurt, and Gu Nanjin changed the topic: "Aunt Nine Emperors should be the one who saved Jia'er."
The "Jia'er" Gu Nanjin refers to is Gu Yuanjia, the emperor's eldest grandson.
Crown Princess: “…”
The Crown Princess blinked and was stunned for a moment.
These days, she was busy taking care of the prince and didn't think so much. She was praying to God and Buddha to protect the prince's safety. It was only now that she heard what the prince said that her mind started to spin.
What the prince means is that Aunt Jiuhuang is the miracle doctor from Jishi Hall? !
The Crown Princess's eyes couldn't help but widen, unable to conceal her shock.
Gu Nanjin smiled again and confirmed the Crown Princess's guess with his eyes.
He knew how badly he was injured, and almost stepped into the gate of **** with one foot, but he was not dead. There were only a handful of people in the world who could save him from the hands of the Lord of Hell, who had better medical skills than the imperial doctors. number.
Therefore, Shen Qianchen must be the miracle doctor from Jishi Hall.
Crown Princess: “…”
At this moment, the Crown Princess's mood was almost difficult to describe in words.
In the past, the late emperor Gu Lang always said that it was his elixir that saved Gu Yuanjia, while the prince said it was the miracle doctor from Jishi Hall. The princess didn't know who to believe.
Today, she naturally has the answer.
It turns out that her husband and her son were both rescued by the same person!
After a while, the Crown Princess calmed down the turmoil in her heart and said seriously: "I will thank Aunt Nine Emperors properly next time."
Gu Nanjin nodded and said "hmm" softly.
Seeing that his lips were dry and flaky, the princess felt distressed and asked the chamberlain to lift him up a little and feed him some tea.
After hesitating for a while, the Crown Princess couldn't help but asked in a low voice: "Prince, does the Nine Emperors Uncle want this throne?"
After the words came out of her mouth, the Crown Princess actually regretted them, but her words were like water being poured out.
"Do you want that phoenix position?" Gu Nanjin asked without answering and closed his eyes tiredly.
He was still too weak. He only said a few words and was already exhausted.
"..." The Crown Princess did not answer.
In the bedroom, one of them was lying down and the other was sitting. After that, they were both speechless.
The clouds outside seem to be getting thicker, the weather has become cooler, and the grass and trees are swaying in the wind.
Today, the palace seems even quieter without the mournful mourning sounds.
Gu Jue and Shen Qianchen had already come out of the East Palace. They originally planned to take a nap together. Unexpectedly, when Gu Jue came out, he was called away by Su Mubai.
As soon as Gu Jue walked away with his front foot, Shen Qianchen was blocked by someone on his back foot.
The person who came was a middle-aged eunuch, who looked to be in his early forties, with fair face and beardless appearance, and a kind temperament.
Shen Qianchen didn't recognize him, but the nun in the palace told her that this was Eunuch Min.
"Princess, this is the list of people who have moved to Huifu Garden. Please take a look at it!" Eunuch Min saluted respectfully. The smile on his face was attentive but not too humble, making people feel cordial after looking at it. .
Eunuch Min was the **** of the palace Huifu Garden. He committed an offense seven years ago and was left in Huifu Garden by Gu Jue's father. Now that the palace is in troubled times, most of the palace residents are being guarded by the Xuanjia Army. There are not many available manpower, so the Queen Mother Yin suggested that Eunuch Min be transferred to take charge of this matter.
In fact, Eunuch Min had just brought this list to Queen Mother Yin for review, but was scolded by Queen Mother Yin.
Eunuch Min was also favored by the late emperor back then, and he was naturally a good person. He immediately knew that the Queen Mother was supporting her daughter-in-law, and she wanted Princess Chen to take on the "important responsibility".
Eunuch Min had been waiting for so many years in Huifu Garden before he got this chance to make a comeback. Naturally, he had to seize the opportunity tightly. When he faced Shen Qianchen, he was respectful.
Shen Qianchen looked at the list in his hand. This list did not include those in the palace, but basically concubines and princesses.
When Shen Qianchen saw Chu Qianhuang's name, he couldn't help but be startled.
Eunuch Min has been observing every change in Shen Qianchen's expression. He can't help but feel a little nervous, and his heart is rising little by little.
Shen Qianchen didn't pay attention to Eunuch Min. At this moment, she remembered that she heard Gu Jue mention it once. After Chu Qianhuang returned to Beijing with Prince Rui and his entourage, Chu Qianhuang was left in the palace by the prince. It turned out that this stay was the only one left. Now.
Shen Qianchen looked up from the list and asked, "How is Chu Qianhuang doing lately?"
Eunuch Min also knew that Chu Qianhuang was Princess Chen's eldest sister, so he respectfully replied: "Everything is well with Miss Chu."
Chu Qianhuang is neither a concubine nor a companion. Now she can still temporarily live in Fengluan Palace with Concubine Chu. When Concubine Chu goes to Huifu Garden, Chu Qianhuang cannot be allowed to stay in Fengluan Palace alone. Bar. The reason why Eunuch Min added Chu Qianhuang's name to this list was also a test.
Shen Qianchen thought for a moment and ordered Jiang Yuan, "Have someone send her to Baiyun Temple."
"..." Eunuch Min was shocked. His first thought was, does Princess Chen want Chu Qianhuang to become a monk?
After a pause, Shen Qianchen said again: "Find someone to watch over her and let her listen to sutras at Baiyun Temple every day...to purify her heart."
As he spoke, Shen Qianchen couldn't help but think of the instructions given by Master Juehui, the abbot of Baiyun Temple, to Chu Qianhuang: "Come from where you came from, go to where you are going, the cycle of cause and effect."
After going to Baiyun Temple to offer incense with Gu Jue and Queen Mother Yin that day, she would think of what Master Juehui said that day from time to time and chew over the meaning of those words over and over again.
If his rebirth is a blessing from his previous life, and the prince has changed his destiny in this life because of him, then what about Chu Qianhuang?
People's fate is not static, so will Chu Qianhuang's fate change?
After that, Eunuch Min retired, and so did Jiang Yuan, each going about his or her own errands.
After a stick of incense, the people who went to pick up Chu Qianhuang arrived at Fengluan Palace. The palace officials reported inside, and the news soon reached Concubine Chu and Chu Qianhuang's aunt and nephew.
