Golden Age Of Phoenix: Tyrant’s First Class Virtuous Imperial Concubine - Chapter 3567
The two of them were negotiating when suddenly, a servant came out and said in a hurry, “His Royal Highness, there is someone from the palace!”
When Zhu Chengxuan heard this, he suddenly became nervous.
He was originally uneasy because the emperor suddenly dealt with Gu Tingqiu by means of thunder. At this time, someone suddenly came to the palace. Based on what he thought before, Wei Ying reminded him like that, I am afraid that there is some decree in the palace deal with him.
His face suddenly turned pale.
At this moment, a hand reached out and gently held his hand.
Turning her head, she was naturally Gu Qiqing standing beside him. Although she was also frightened, her forehead was covered with fine cold sweat, but at this time, she was more calm. She grabbed Zhu Chengxuan’s hand, squeezed it slightly, and then said softly, “Don’t worry, Your Highness.”
“…”
“Thunder and rain are all graces.”
“…”
“I’ll just accompany Your Highness.”
Hearing her gentle and powerful words, Zhu Chengxuan also calmed down. He took a deep breath and said solemnly, “Okay.”
After he finished speaking, he took Gu Qiqing out of the room and saw the little servant standing outside, and asked, “Is that Eunuch Shun?”
The servant shook his head: “It’s Eunuch Delu.”
“Delu?”
As soon as they heard that it was Delulai, Zhu Chengxuan and Gu Qiqing looked at each other and their expressions softened a little.
If the father-in-law comes, it will definitely bring the emperor’s will, and at this time, the emperor’s mind is elusive, and he really doesn’t know whether it will be thunder or rain.
But here comes Delu.
He is a noble concubine. Although he does not come often, the noble concubine is different from the emperor after all. Every time he comes, he brings some good news, even if it is not good news, but they all understand that as long as there is a noble concubine there , everything doesn’t seem as bad as they think.
So, the two of them were secretly relieved and hurried to the side hall.
As soon as he walked over, he saw Delu sitting on a chair in the side hall, with a few servant girls serving him and drinking tea. When he saw that the prince and the princess were coming, Delu immediately got up and saluted both of them: ” See Your Royal Highness, see Your Highness the Crown Princess.”
Although Delu is only a servant, but because he is a servant of a noble concubine, the prince, who is a junior, bows his hands and bows very politely, and then says, “The father-in-law suddenly comes to visit, but what does the noble concubine have to order?”
Delu smiled and said, “His Royal Highness has seen the outside world, and the empress didn’t give any orders, but there is one thing that the slaves should hand over to His Highness.”
“Oh? What is it?”
Delu raised his hand, and Zhu Chengxuan saw that there was also a potted plant on the table.
He was stunned: “This is-”
Delu smiled and said, “In the past two days, Niangniang has carefully trimmed this potted plant, and specially asked the slaves to leave the palace and hand them over to His Royal Highness. Please share it with the Crown Princess.”
“…”
The two of them were puzzled and looked at each other, both at a loss.
A potted plant?
If the imperial concubine sent any letter or message, it would be fine. After all, at this time, His Majesty the emperor dealt with Gu Tingqiu.
She moved now, but someone brought a potted plant.
At this time, what’s the point of sending a potted plant?
Zhu Chengxuan couldn’t think of a reason for it after thinking about it again and again. He walked slowly and looked at the potted plant. It was indeed as Delu said, it was properly pruned, and some branches and leaves that would affect it were cut off. The new green that emerges from the branches makes people feel vigorous vitality.
But what does this have to do with the situation they are currently facing?
Zhu Chengxuan did not give up, and asked again, “Besides this, does the concubine have anything else to explain?”
Delu smiled and said, “The niangniang only asked the slaves to bring this, and the rest did not explain.”
“…”
Zhu Chengxuan frowned.
But looking at Lu’s appearance, he certainly wouldn’t deceive himself, and he couldn’t ask why, so he asked Delu to take him down for tea and snacks, but Delu waved his hand and said with a smile: “In the palace There is still something else, the slaves will not stay for long, so I will leave first.”
Zhu Chengxuan said: “Then I won’t force my father-in-law to stay, it’s better to go.”
After he finished speaking, he waved his hand to let Dulu go out.
When everyone was gone, he looked down at the potted plant again, sighed with a sad face, sat on the chair next to him, and murmured, “What’s the point of this thing?”
Gu Qiqing came over, stretched out his hand and stroked the new green buds emerging from the branches. Although it was a tender green bud, it seemed very firm. It was not damaged by her fiddling, on the contrary, she was stubborn. The branches swayed.
She said, “Does the maiden have something to tell us?”
Zhu Chengxuan said: “If so, why not let Delu bring it directly, but bring such a meaningless potted plant?”
Gu Qiqing thought for a while, then shook his head and said, “It’s not necessarily meaningless.”
“…”
“The noble concubine is the person who has been with the emperor for the longest time now. If you say that the person in the world who knows your majesty the most, there is no other person besides her. Even the noble concubine’s behavior is very similar to your majesty.”
“…”
“Could it be that this potted plant is just like the emperor’s handling of his father, and it is also the starting point for a complicated matter?”
Hearing her say that, Zhu Chengxuan suddenly felt something.
He sat up straight and looked down at the potted plant.
From the looks of it, it is indeed just an ordinary potted plant. Although the flowerpot has been carefully taken care of, there is no such thing as a hidden compartment.
Gu Qiqing said: “If there is nothing on it, then maybe, the mother’s meaning is on the potted plant itself.”
“itself……?”
Zhu Chengxuan frowned slightly, and then leaned over to look at the potted plant carefully, but he couldn’t see anything else. He could only see that the imperial concubine pruned very carefully, and several branches were cut bald.
He smiled bitterly and fiddled with the bald branch.
“Look, it’s almost gone.”
Gu Qiqing smiled and said: “His Royal Highness is usually busy with government affairs, so I don’t often play with these. In fact, it is necessary to cut off these branches and leaves, because too many branches and leaves will take away the nutrients of the land, only pruning them, new, good The branches and leaves can grow up smoothly.”
“Is it……”
“Of course,”
Gu Qiqing smiled and said, “If you are always occupied by these stubborn branches and leaves, how can new leaves grow?”
Zhu Chengxuan looked back at her, and suddenly felt a flash of light in front of him.
He frowned and murmured, “The old…the new…”
Seeing that his face suddenly changed, Gu Qiqing hurried over and asked softly, “Your Highness, what did you think of?”
Zhu Chengxuan looked up at her, and said with a complicated expression: “I may, understand what the father means.”
