Chapter 64
Gu Fang only found out that there was such a place between Lian Zong and Frank after the Yuezhi Kingdom's mission left Beijing.
He couldn't help but smile: "Your Majesty just let his sister-in-law go?"
His Majesty the Emperor looked resentfully at Gu Fang, who was lying sideways on the imperial concubine's couch, showing all his laziness, and said, "Are you still laughing at me?"
"It's a joke." Gu Fang sat up lazily. He put the book in his hand on the imperial concubine's bed casually, with a smile on his face, "I think Frank is very good. If His Royal Highness Qinyang I like it, and it's a good relationship."
Hearing this, he remained silent and did not speak.After a while, he sat next to Gu Fang, put his arms around Gu Fang's waist with one hand, and lifted His Excellency's slender chin with the other, allowing Gu Fang's loose hair to separate the two of them from the world.
Then His Majesty the Emperor broke the slightly ambiguous atmosphere at this time: "Aren't you afraid that I will go find a woman to have children because Heng'er is with a man and has no heirs?"
Gu Fang completely ignored Lian Zong's provocation.If he hadn't heard the conversation between Lian Zong and Emperor Kaiyuan, he might have some concerns, but now, how could he not understand what tricks Lian Zong was playing.
Therefore, Gu Fang sneered and waved His Majesty's hand away.He stood up against the light, his expression was full of unspeakable arrogance: "Your Majesty is serious?"
As soon as Gu Fang said this, Lian Zong immediately changed his expression.He took Gu Fang's hand and coaxed, "Don't be angry, I'm talking nonsense."
If His Highness King Qinyang was present at this moment, he would definitely say that Gu Fang's demeanor just now is exactly the same as that of the cat who has been serving him for a month.
Tsundere and proud.
January of Yuan Ce's second year passed by so smoothly.In mid-February, Chang Sun Chi brought back the latest news about the famine that broke out in Daman years ago from the border.
Because the wind and snow continued to rage in Daman territory, the famine at the border between Daman and the Western Regions has not improved, but is spreading to the border between Daman and Daman.
"The soldiers have observed that at the end of last year, there were only a few dozen people wandering from the west every day, but after January, the number grew to more than a hundred people every day." Chang Sun Chi reported to Lian Zong, "The number of people Although it is not too much, it can be seen that the famine in Daman territory is still going on."
"I'm afraid that there will be fewer and fewer people by then." Gu Fang, who came to Qianyuan Hall and Lian Zong to listen to Changsun Chi's report, said quietly after General Changsun finished speaking.
"Why did the national teacher say that?" Chang Sun Chi has a good personal relationship with Lian Zong, and they are distant cousins, so he is not restrained in front of His Majesty the Emperor.He directly asked Gu Fang what he meant.
Although Gu Fang didn't care about Chang Sun Chi's slightly aggressive attitude, Lian Zong couldn't help but take it to heart.
But when His Majesty the Emperor frowned and wanted to correct Zhang Sun Chi's attitude, Gu Fang pulled the hem of his clothes from behind.
Gu Fang shook his head at Lian Zong, and then he answered Zhang Sun Chi's question expressionlessly: "People will wander from one place to another because of the famine, and if the famine occurs, the people in the place will become dinner on the plate. ?”
When Gu Fang said this, a trace of disgust and intolerance flashed in his eyes, but on his surface he was still cold.
"How is it possible..." Chang Sun Chi subconsciously wanted to refute, but in the next moment he thought of the "two-legged sheep" that the Yuezhi Kingdom mission had mentioned to them when they saw the border for the first time.
Chang Sun Chi suddenly took a deep breath.Although he has galloped on the battlefield for a long time, the extremely cruel thing of cannibalism is still difficult for him to accept.
"It's simply against the common sense of human ethics." Changsun Chi said bitterly.
"In the face of hunger, human ethics and common sense are not as good as a hot meal." Lian Zong's eyes darkened, and he asked Chang Sun Chi, "How is the border ban enforced?"
"Your Majesty's orders are strictly implemented, and none of the people of Dayao have left the customs at present." Chang Sun Chi replied immediately, not daring to delay.
"Very good." Lian Zong nodded in satisfaction, and then told him: "If you see barbarians begging at the border, help if you can. But remember, this is just kindness, not an obligation!"
He couldn't bear to let Lian Zong sit back and watch the famine disaster, but Lian Zong didn't want those victims to rely on Dayao because of his momentary kindness.
"Yes!" Changsun Chi understood.
"Okay, this time you come back for four or five days before leaving, and spend more time with uncle." After finishing his business, His Majesty the Emperor patted his nominal cousin on the shoulder.
"It's natural." Changsun Chi replied.But when he walked out of the Qianyuan Hall, he looked at Gu Fangyun's indifferent look and hesitated to speak.
At the end, Chang Sun Chi still didn't say what he wanted to say to Lian Zong.With his head down, he thoughtfully returned to Uncle Lian Zong's Hussar General's Mansion.
"Father." Changsun Chi greeted Changsun Huan respectfully.
"Have you seen Your Majesty?" The spirit of the hussar general who is more than seventy years old actually looks like a man in his 30s or [-]s.
Changsun Huan patted his adoptive son on the shoulder vigorously, and then attacked Changsun Chi's abdomen without giving Changsun Chi any time to think.
A powerful fist broke through the air, and hit Chang Sun Chi's palm with a "wow".
"Come again!" Changsun Huan was in high spirits.
At this time, Chang Sun Chi didn't have the heart to tell his adoptive father about his doubts about the relationship between Lian Zong and Gu Fang.
It wasn't until dinner time that the father and son of the Changsun Mansion, who were sweating profusely in the winter, ended their competition under the supervision of the housekeeper.
"Good boy!" Changsun Huan took the towel handed over by the housekeeper and wiped his face. He was full of praise for Changsun Chi's progress in martial arts, "It's almost as good as His Majesty."
Chang Sun Chi touched the back of his head and smiled embarrassedly.
At this time, he also stopped his previous thoughts of "informing" his adoptive father.
The eldest grandson Chi also saw Lian Zong's feelings for Gu Fang today: that's really disrespectful and he is not allowed to appear in front of Gu Fang.
He belatedly thought that if Gu Fang hadn't stopped Lian Zong today, he might have learned a lesson.
That's all, Zuo just admired the Marshal and chose a man as his partner.Since I am a staunch supporter of Lian Zong, I should support his actions more than anyone else.
And the person chosen by Lian Zong is not an ordinary person, but his Excellency, the national teacher of Dayao!
From this point of view, his marshal is still very discerning.
Having figured this out, the eldest grandson Chixin raced with his adoptive father to see who would eat more food.
On the side, the old butler looked at the father and son who were once again caught in a strange contest with a kind face.
The old housekeeper thought: Today is really a good day.
But even if Changsun Chi didn't explain the situation of Lian Zong and Gu Fang to Changsun Huan, Lian Zong didn't want to hide from Changsun Huan.
"I haven't found a good opportunity before, so let's take advantage of Ah Chi's return from the border this time, and let's go to see Uncle." Lian Zong almost had the word "open" written on his face.
Gu Fang froze when he received the message from His Majesty the Emperor.But after thinking for a while, he still agreed to Lian Zong's proposal.
But Gu Fang didn't want to just go to see Lian Zong's uncle - he had a relationship with Changsun Huan, but it was not official after all.
Your Excellency the National Teacher drove Lian Zong out of the National Teacher Tower, and then ran into the ancestral hall to ask Emperor Kaiyuan what he should pay attention to in this situation.
Emperor Kaiyuan looked at his apprentice with a complicated expression.On the one hand, he was happy that even if Gu Fang paid more attention to Changsun Huan, she was still the daughter-in-law of his Lian family. On the other hand, he felt sad that he did not receive the same treatment as Changsun Huan.
I have known for a long time that I am at a disadvantage here.
Emperor Kaiyuan sighed with emotion, and then said to Gu Fang: "Don't worry about it, I will go with you when the time comes."
Gu Fang finally breathed a sigh of relief.
However, this alone is not enough.Gu Fang also specifically asked Lian Heng who had come to the palace to find him, and asked him and Lian Zong's uncle what they liked on weekdays.
"The emperor's brother is my uncle's favorite." Lian Heng answered irrelevantly.
Gu Fang: "..."
"Okay, just kidding." His Royal Highness Qinyang Wang, who lost his cat, smirked and bumped Gu Fang's shoulder, and then said, "Although uncle is a general, he also likes to write copybooks. Sister-in-law, your words are mine. I’ve seen it, and it’s already quite strong. You can just write a copybook.”
"Isn't this too immodest?" Gu Fang frowned.
"The heart is the most important thing!" Lian Heng made a final decision.
In the end, Gu Fang followed Lian Heng's suggestion.But what he wrote was definitely not an ordinary copybook, but a part of an art of war that he found from the library of the National Master Tower.
For military commanders, this can be regarded as a thoughtful gift.
On the third day, when Lian Zong came to the National Teacher Pagoda to pick up Gu Fang, he saw that Gu Fang, who was usually dressed in plain clothes, had specially put on a dark blue colored dress today.
The high neckline made Gu Fang's figure even more upright, making him look as energetic as a green pine.
"It looks good." Lian Zong felt his eyes light up.He held Gu Fang's hand, and then took his lover into the carriage prepared by Zhang Pu.
And Emperor Kaiyuan was adorned far behind their carriage - Gu Fang took the tablet of Emperor Kaiyuan, and Emperor Kaiyuan could go with them.
At this time, the Hussar general who was exercising martial arts with his precious adopted son in the mansion didn't know what a big surprise was waiting for him.
