In the next few days, the streets and alleys were discussing the matter of King Kang's coercion, and they regarded it as a topic after dinner.

The people in the capital are still in a state of extreme excitement.

The servants of the Gu family were no exception. Sometimes they reprimanded King Kang for his audacity, sometimes praised the emperor for being wise and powerful, sometimes they were glad that Li Yunxie had changed back to Li's surname long ago, and sometimes they proudly praised their young master for his great contribution to this incident.

Gu Yuan has been by Chu Yi's side all these days, and he didn't have time to return to the house until seven days later, the whole house was boiling, and he just wanted to set off firecrackers at the gate to celebrate.

Gu Yunzhen's first words when he saw Gu Yuan were:

"Brother, you... have grown taller!"

Gu Yunzhen looked Gu Yuan up and down, obviously she hadn't seen Gu Yuan for more than ten days, but the young man in front of her made her feel strange, strange yet familiar.

Today Gu Yuan wore a lake-blue straight gown with willow leaf dark patterns, with a black silk sash tied around his waist. He was tall and thin, and his stern face lacked the sharpness of a teenager, but more with the tenacity of a youth.

Compared to last year, Gu Yuan has indeed grown taller, but in fact, what Gu Yunzhen really wanted to say just now is that Gu Yuan looks more like Gu Ce, no matter in appearance or temperament.

so good! The corners of Gu Yunzhen's eyes were slightly sour, and his heart felt in a trance, as if he saw his dead uncle again.

"Brother has indeed grown taller!" Gu Yanfei nodded solemnly, his eyes sparkling.

Compared to Gu Yuan who was bad in his previous life, the current Gu Yuan is so good!

Gu Yanfei turned to Gu Yunzhen with a smile on her face: "Sister, do you need to re-measure the size of your summer shirt?"

"That's right." Gu Yunzhen nodded, and quickly ordered the big maid to find someone from the sewing room to come and measure Gu Yuan.

"..." Gu Yuan actually felt that the robe could be worn half an inch long or half an inch short, but he closed his mouth quite tactfully.

In the past, when my mother was in charge of the internal affairs of the house, my father never interrupted.

Gu Yuan thought of something, turned his face straight, and asked Gu Yunzhen with concern: "Sister Zhen, I heard that my third aunt caught a cold a few days ago, is she feeling better?"

"It's all right." Gu Yunzhen hurriedly said, "My mother didn't sleep well a few nights ago, and that's why she felt a little cold. Yan Fei prescribed some decoctions for her, and I gave her some soothing incense for the past two nights. It's all right."

For Yan Shi and Gu Yunzhen, what happened on the day of the forced palace was when the forty-five death knells sounded, which made them feel uneasy for a while.

After that, Gu Yuan sent people to guard Gu's mansion, so that they could stay in the mansion with peace of mind.

In the afternoon, when the news about King Kang's forced palace in the imperial mausoleum came, everything had been settled, and the capital city was under Gu Yuan's control.

For Gu Yunzhen, what happened that day actually had no sense of urgency or reality, just like a sudden rainstorm that came and ended suddenly. .

The third wife, Yan Shi, was very thoughtful, and was woken up by nightmares for several nights after the incident, and then accidentally contracted the cold.

Compared to them, the people who are really in danger are Gu Yuan and Gu Yanfei.

Gu Yunzhen pursed his lips, and couldn't help but asked curiously: "Brother, everyone outside is saying that you and the eldest prince used the magic of shrinking the land to inches to rush back to the capital from Yuzhou, is it true?"

"..." Gu Yuan raised his eyebrows in astonishment.

Gu Yanfei laughed "puchi", the laughter was clear and clear.

With her smile, Gu Yunzhen knew the answer, and blushingly picked up the teacup, drinking tea to cover up her embarrassment.

Gu Yuan curled his lips amusedly, anyway, the matter has been settled, and there is nothing that cannot be said to Gu Yunzhen.

He straightened out his thoughts, and said concisely: "The First Prince and I didn't go to Yuzhou. After leaving the capital for two hundred miles, we came back in disguise..."

Gu Yuan roughly explained the ins and outs of the whole matter.

After the First World War in Yangzhou nine years ago, King Kang spent nine years dismantling the Huben Army and hiding them bit by bit into the three major battalions and the upper twelve guards. No one knew where the Huben Army was except himself.

The Huben Army is Kang Wang's trump card.

It wasn't until this time that he forced the palace that King Kang mobilized this tiger and ben army from various places again, breaking it into pieces.

After Gu Yuan and Chu Yi sneaked back to the capital, they had been paying attention to King Kang's movements. On April 15th, the two men split into two groups. Chu Yi secretly followed the emperor to the imperial mausoleum, while Gu Yuan stayed in the capital.

Kang Wang's goal is the emperor, and the large force of the Huben army is with him. He thinks that the capital is not to be feared, so he only leaves a thousand Tiger's army for the Empress Dowager Yuan to dispatch.

Seven days ago, when the sound of the great funeral resounded throughout the capital, Gu Yuan knew that the Empress Dowager Yuan had started to move, and immediately mobilized the Jinwu Guards and the two thousand Shangyang Army to take down the one thousand Tiger and Ben army in the middle of the capital, and quickly controlled it. four city gates.

Empress Dowager Yuan was trapped in the deep palace, and Gu Yuan cut off her eyes and ears. She didn't know what was going on outside at all. It wasn't until Chu Yi escorted a group of criminals back to Beijing from the imperial mausoleum that Empress Dowager Yuan knew that she and Kang Wang had failed.

"The empress dowager was stimulated and couldn't afford to be seriously ill. The imperial doctor said that she was afraid it would be a serious illness." Gu Yuan finally said, when he talked about the empress dowager's serious illness, his expression was indifferent.

Gu Yunzhen listened quietly, sometimes startled, sometimes relieved, the changes in expression were quite wonderful.

After a while, Gu Yun really recovered his composure, and asked again in a low voice: "Brother, the matter of the marriage between the two countries..."

Gu Yuan didn't answer, raised his eyebrows slightly, and turned to look at Gu Yanfei who was sitting on his right.

Gu Yanfei calculated with his fingers, and said flatly: "The sage of the Yue Kingdom is about to pass away."

Gu Yuan smiled but said nothing, and picked up the teacup.

Although Chu Yi didn't say it clearly, Gu Yuan could probably guess that there was something wrong with "Dou Zixiang", otherwise how could he help them cover up their whereabouts. The appearance of "Dou Zixiang" is probably inextricably related to the powerful Tianyuansi lord of the Yue Kingdom.

Gu Yun really didn't pay attention to the eyebrows and lawsuits between the brothers and sisters, looked down at the sinking and floating tea leaves in the teacup, and said to himself: "The sage of the Yue Kingdom passed away, so the marriage between the two countries should have to be done. "

What Gu Yunzhen was talking about was the marriage between the two countries, but what he was thinking about was Li Yunxie.

For Li Yunxie, the younger sister who grew up together, Gu Yunzhen has very complicated feelings.

Before, when the news came that King Kang agreed to marry the Emperor Ji of the Yue Kingdom, Gu Yunzhen had sympathized with Li Yunxie to some extent. She knew that Li Yunxie had a deep affection for King Kang. Li Yunxie once said that King Kang agreed to her and would be with her forever.

But later, when Gu Yunzhen found out about King Kang and Li Yunxie forcing the palace in the imperial mausoleum, he felt ridiculous again.

Poor people must have something to hate, Li Yunxie never needs to be pitiful by himself.

Gu Yunzhen's eyelashes trembled slightly, he drank his tea silently, and tried his best to forget about Li Yunxie.

Li Yunxie's surname is Li, they have nothing to do with each other anymore!

Juan Bi, who served them tea at the side, also listened intently, his eyes sparkled, and he felt that what Gu Yuan said was even more exciting than the playbook.

Seeing that the tea was running out, she hurriedly re-served the tea for the three masters.

Gu Yunzhen sniffed the fragrance of tea, put down the teacup that he had just picked up, and asked in a low voice, "Where is Princess Fengyang?"

This time, Gu Yun really asked Gu Yanfei.

Gu Yanfei sighed softly, with dark eyes, said: "Princess Fengyang has suffered from the Soul Devouring Art for twenty-one years."

"Soul Eater erodes her soul little by little like water drops through a stone, and now her soul is already riddled with holes, like a tree trunk eaten away by termites."

"If it was ten years earlier, I might still have a way, but now..."

Gu Yanfei spoke halfway, but did not continue.

She didn't mention to Gu Yunzhen that Fengyang would be dissipated and unable to enter reincarnation, because she didn't want to add to Gu Yunzhen's troubles.

If it was in the Yaoling Realm, she might be able to think of a way, but this small world is a place of nowhere, and all she can do is use the aura in various jade stones to barely keep Fengyang's life alive for a few days.

"..." Gu Yunzhen opened his mouth, his throat tightened, and he didn't ask any more questions.

The room fell silent, and the atmosphere suddenly changed. The faces of the three brothers and sisters were all serious, and even Juan Bi's eyes were a little red.

"Meow!"

Until the cat meowing from outside the house broke the silence, Qingguang ran carelessly in the courtyard outside, flapping butterflies for a while, scratching the trees for a while, only to make a field of dead flowers fall in the courtyard, making the ground a mess.

Gu Yunzhen stared at Qingguang for a long time, then suddenly let out a low voice:

"ah!"

Gu Yun really stood up from his chair.

She was so excited that she accidentally bumped into the chair at the back, making a thumping sound, which caused several other people in the room to look at her.

"Yan Fei," Gu Yunzhen quickly grabbed Gu Yanfei's hand, and urged anxiously, "Stop sitting still, hurry up and get dressed, the auspicious time is almost here."

As Gu Yunzhen said, he glanced at the pot not far away.

It was less than half an hour before the auspicious time, and there was still time.

correct!

Gu Yunzhen thought of something again, and then turned to Gu Yuan and said, "Brother, you also go change your clothes and dress more formally, today is Yan Fei's big day!"

Gu Yunzhen looked at Gu Yuan with a bit of distaste, feeling that Gu Yuan was dressed too plainly, not only was his robe half-new, but he didn't even have a piece of jade on his body.

Looking at Gu Yanfei who didn't have any jewelry on her body, Gu Yun couldn't help but feel emotional: These brothers and sisters are really brothers and sisters!

Gu Yunzhen hurriedly pulled Gu Yan to the direction of the inner room, muttering in his mouth: "Yan Fei, you need to change your clothes, your hairstyle, and your jewelry..."

Gu Yunzhen calculated the time in his mind, and the more he calculated, the more he felt that the time was a bit rushed.

"..." Gu Yanfei actually felt that there was nothing wrong with her and Gu Yuan being like this now, but seeing Gu Yun's turmoil, he didn't dare to say it.

She smiled obediently.

The eldest sister is in charge of the house, of course the eldest sister has the final say!

Nanny Pang, who was running around in a hurry, wanted to remind them a long time ago. Hearing they were talking about forcing the palace and Princess Fengyang, she didn't dare to interrupt, so she could only go and prepare clothes and jewelry for Gu Yanfei first.

Nanny Pang greeted her with a smile, and said cheerfully: "Miss, the servant has chosen several clothes for the second girl. Come and palm your eyes and choose one."

After several months of getting along, Nanny Pang also got to know her second daughter well. If there were any important matters in the house, she would listen to the second girl; as for these trivial matters, she would listen to the elder girl.

"The servant also picked out a few sets of noodles, and one of the sets of Diancui noodles was newly made at Zhen's Yinzhuang last month. The servant seems to be very suitable for the second girl."

While talking, they surrounded Gu Yan and flew in.

Gu Yanfei was like a doll, letting them play with her.

The maids were busy around Gu Yanfei, and after spending a lot of time, they finally managed to dress up Gu Yanfei in every possible way.

Gu Yanfei newly changed into a green lotus-colored white butterfly wearing flower-carved silk gown, and matched it with a water-red thread-stitched long skirt underneath. The bright blue lotus color made her look delicate and charming.

The thick black silk was tied into an elegant crescent moon bun, and she was wearing a red gold dot emerald, inlaid with colorful gemstones, which made her eyes shine like stars.

The girl with plain makeup on weekdays is now bright and moving.

But Gu Yunzhen still felt dissatisfied, and muttered: "It seems that there is something missing."

She looked at Gu Yanfei repeatedly, clapped her hands excitedly and said, "I see!"

Gu Yunzhen picked out another pair of gold thread pearl earrings from the box, and put them on for Gu Yanfei himself.

Gu Yanfei turned her face slightly, the pearl swayed with the golden thread under her earlobe, revealing a trace of charm that belongs only to a girl.

"Just add this pair of earrings! Perfect!" Gu Yunzhen finally smiled with satisfaction, as if he had completed a masterpiece.

Juanbi and Nanny Pang also agreed one after another, all in high spirits.

"Here we come! We come..." The panting voice and hurried steps of the little maid came from outside the house.

A little maid in blue came in with the curtains lifted, her cheeks were flushed, and she said excitedly: "Eldest Miss, Second Miss, the Ministry of Rituals and the Superintendent of Rituals have come to propose marriage!"

After King Kang forced the palace, the emperor vigorously spent three days to stabilize the court situation. Those who should be imprisoned were sent to prison, those who should be inspected, and those who should be rewarded were rewarded. They re-selected officials to replace the vacancies of Xiao Fengyuan, Wang Kangyin and others.

Three days ago, the emperor decreed to marry Chu Yi and Gu Yanfei.

This time, none of the courtiers objected to the marriage. Even if King Kang didn't admit it, the officials in the imperial mausoleum that day were 70% sure that there was indeed something hidden about Gu Ce's surrender to the enemy nine years ago, and he was also inextricably linked to King Kang and even the late emperor.

Originally, it took at least two or three months to prepare from the emperor's marriage proposal to the marriage proposal, but according to Qin Tianjian's calculations, today is the best day in the first half of the year.

Plus……

"The third wife and the eldest young master also know about it, and have already gone to Yimen." The little maid in blue hurriedly added.

Gu Yunzhen waved away the maid who came to report, and adjusted the silk flowers in Gu Yanfei's hair, and smiled with curved lips, "Yanfei, let's go too."

Gu Yanfei gave a "hmm", got up from the dressing table obediently, and walked outside the house surrounded by everyone.

The courtyard outside is decorated with lights and colorful flowers.

The maids and women along the way were all beaming and in high spirits. Today is a great day for the manor.

Gu Yanfei walked unhurriedly from Yuhengyuan to the direction of the Outer Instrument Gate, passing through the gates familiarly, walking through the long corridors and paths...

From a distance, she saw a familiar Zhulun car parked at the gate of Waiyi.

Feng Yang, who was full of gorgeous hair, got down from the Zhu Lun carriage, dressed in princess make-up, with a graceful and noble demeanor.

The bright sunlight coated Fengyang's body with a golden halo.

Today, it is Feng Yang who came to propose marriage for the eldest prince on behalf of the emperor.

Feng Yang beside Zhu Luncar also saw Gu Yanfei walking towards her, and smiled brightly.

Gu Yanfei pursed her lips and looked at Fengyang with a smile.

Plus--

Feng Yang said that she wanted to personally witness the marriage between Chu Yi and Gu Yanfei.

Her time is running out, and she will definitely not wait for their wedding.

Whether it is the emperor, Chu Yi, or Gu Yanfei, they all want Fengyang to fulfill his wish.

"Your Highness!" Gu Yanfei quickened his pace and walked towards Fengyang with bright eyes.

The sky was a clear blue, and the sun was dazzling.
