Who Cares - Chapter 187
Guan Suyi woke up after sleeping for more than an hour, and found that he was lying on the emperor’s knees. He was shocked. As soon as he stood up and fell back, there was a tingling sensation on the soles of his feet.
“Please forgive the emperor, and the minister will get up.” She struggled a few times, but failed to succeed. Instead, she fell into each other’s arms again and again, making outsiders look as if they were throwing in their arms. She was embarrassed and annoyed in her heart, but she couldn’t stand up because of her legs and feet, and there were tears in the corners of her eyes unknowingly.
Emperor Sheng Yuan let her thump for a long time before reaching out and helping him, and said calmly, “Madam, is your leg numb? It’s not too late to leave after sitting for a while.”
Guan Suyi wanted to return home immediately, but was temporarily unable to move, so she thanked the emperor and sat down in a soft chair. Emperor Shengyuan glanced at her and asked, “have a nightmare last night?”
Guan Suyi didn’t dare to conceal it, and told the truth, “When I returned to the emperor, the ministers and wives spent the entire night in their dreams. After a short squint, the day broke, and I had to get up and take care of my concubine’s three banquets.” She woke up and slept again. Sleeping and waking up, more tired than not closing your eyes all night, the dream is full of blood, as if to drown her.
Emperor Sheng Yuan smiled and sighed, “Since I am afraid of being like that, would you still dare to fall asleep next to me? It is also heartless.”
Guan Suyi looked down and replied, “Enlighten the emperor, the most terrifying thing in the world is not death, but the unknown. Leaving the palace, the ministers will inevitably think and be frightened. When you are in front of you, they will feel at ease. Everything depends on your decision.”
Emperor Shengyuan laughed twice and waved his hand, “Don’t worry, I will not only not move you, nor will others move you. I owe you a favor. Whatever you want, just say it.”
Guan Suyi immediately thought of his unpaid grandfather, but he quickly denied it. When she first married Zhao Luli, she had hoped that he could take care of the Guan family, but she only thought about it in her heart and never opened her mouth. It’s a passion for others to help you, and it’s a duty not to help, which is beyond blame. She would find a way to return the silver liang borrowed from Zhao’s family as soon as possible. No matter how they treat her or how hurtful things they do, she can bear it.
She knows about Entubao, and naturally knows about Zu Changle. The previous rewards are enough for her, and she dare not ask for more, so she refuses, “Teach the emperor, the courtesan has nothing to want, for the monarch Serving is the duty of the minister’s wife, and I only ask you to let the minister’s wife out safely.”
“I have a good word, when will I not count what I have said? Even if I let you go last time, it won’t hurt you a bit in the future. Baifu, bring up the brocade box.”
There are brocade boxes? Guan Suyi’s hands in his sleeves couldn’t help but clenched into fists.
The Emperor Sheng Yuan smiled, handed the brocade box to him, and said, “Open it and take a look.”
Still open it? Guan Suyi groaned in her heart, but didn’t dare to refuse, so she slowly lifted the lid of the box. To be honest, she has developed a sense of fear for the brocade box, but the emperor is full of evil and fun. The three brocade boxes given to her are all exactly the same, and even the tied knots are twisted into the same shape, so that when she sees it, she sends her fingers Hemp, the hairs stand upright.
She tried to make herself calm, and when the lid was lifted, she looked inside and she couldn’t help letting out a sigh of relief. There are many neatly stacked small gold ingots in the box, and a piece of paper is placed on it. There is no blood and no human head.
Emperor Shengyuan took out the paper and said slowly, “I scared you last time, I will pay you no. There will be many boxes like this in the future, so you won’t be afraid if you get used to it.”
The amount of information contained in this remark was so large that Guan Suyi’s heart palpitated again. What does it mean that there will be many more in the future? Doesn’t it mean that you go out today and will come again in the future? He is the prince of a country, and what does he always summon a foreigner to do? Not even in the name of Ye Jieyu!
“The emperor, this is unreasonable!” She had regained consciousness in her legs and feet, and she knelt down quickly, but was firmly grasped by a big hand and lifted her arm firmly.
“Nine-nine-nine-eighty-one-day rebirth curse, no one less day, no one more day.” Emperor Sheng Yuan pressed her shoulders and said arbitrarily, “You are the mother Zhaoxue, and this soul naturally wants you to come to the rescue. The mother waits in the Hades enough. After a long time, I want to send her to reincarnation quickly, and I can’t delay it for a moment. I have sent someone to investigate what happened back then. In order to avoid getting rid of the grass and startling the snake, I still need to hide it from the queen mother, so I can’t ask the high monks to recite the scriptures. Madam, I can. Believe you?”
Guan Suyi had no other way except nodding. I thought that the truth was over. I didn’t know that I had to paint, and I had to recite the scriptures after painting, and it was still ninety-nine-eighty-one days. Why are these things going on endlessly? However, she has entered the pit, what else can she do except try her best to catch the rope thrown by this person to save herself?
“Isn’t it too eye-catching to enter the palace for two or three months? If you recite the scriptures, would you be more sincere on your own?” she struggled.
“If I can abandon government affairs and sit in the Buddhist hall chanting scriptures, why should I call you? I can take out an hour to reach the sky, but where is it enough? You only said to go to the Kuoyin Temple to worship the Buddha for three months. To pray for the Zhenbeihou who is out for war, I will naturally send someone to secretly pick you up into the palace. Madam, don’t worry, I will not harm your fame.” Emperor Sheng Yuan stared at the blood jade finger on his hand, his eyes gloomy.
Guan Suyi opened her mouth, after all, she said nothing, but bowed her head helplessly.
Seeing her like this, Emperor Sheng Yuan’s tone became extremely gentle, and he spread out the paper just now and said, “This is a land lease. I have chosen a small house with three entrances for the Guan family in the south of the city. I heard that Bai Fu said a few days ago. It was windy at night and overturned the roof, making your grandfather really caught in a cold rain. Now he is very sick. If you still have a little bit of filial piety, don’t refuse this gift, just treat it as you sell the painting. Remuneration, including the hundred taels of gold in this box, is the price fair?”
No matter how proud Guan Suyi was, she would not ignore her grandfather’s life and death for this face. She can force her not to ask Zhao Luli to help her grandfather and father find jobs, but once the grandfather’s illness is involved, she can do nothing. What does it matter if you just sell a painting? Doesn’t my father also paint in the street and sell it in public?
The previous embarrassment and struggle all turned into full of gratitude, and she quickly accepted the title deed and thanked her sincerely.
It’s so coaxing and easy to satisfy. Emperor Sheng Yuan laughed in his heart, but did not show the slightest expression on his face, handed the box over and reminded, “I will go to the Jueyin Temple to worship the Buddha tomorrow, and I will send someone to pick you up.”
“The minister’s wife obeyed, thank your majesty for the reward.” To earn a place to settle down for his family, Guan Suyi didn’t resist even a little bit. He was about to kowtow, and was pressed by the emperor’s big palm on his shoulders, unable to move. She had to say many words of gratitude, and then she left Ganquan Palace under the **** of Yonghe and Yongju, got on the carriage and took out the title deed, looked and looked again.
The taste of poverty is not terrible, but what is terrible is the combination of poverty and disease and conspiracy. She has been fed up with the feeling of being contemptuous these years, but because of her grandfather’s illness and Guan’s reputation, she dare not resist. Seeing her family struggling in despair, she didn’t want to give it a hand, but sadly found that she had no spare energy to save them, let alone completely cure her grandfather’s illness, she couldn’t even find a decent place for them.
Where is she from Hou Palace’s mistress? It’s just a servant who takes care of the children. However, the Houfu couldn’t give it to her, but the emperor was not stingy at all. How about selling paintings? How about chanting? As long as the family can live better, she is willing to do anything.
After thinking about it, Guan Jia arrived, and the carriage stopped at the door. Zhong clan heard the noise and greeted him, and said in surprise, “Why are you here again? Running to your natal home in two days, the old lady won’t blame it, right?”
“It’s okay, I just came out of the palace, and I will take a look at you.” Guan Suyi covered the box with the cloak and walked in quickly. Minglan followed behind, looking around guardingly.
“Mother, I can’t live in this house anymore. Move as soon as possible. This is the house that Ye Jieyu rewarded the Guan family. Not long after it was built, you can move in with a cleaning. There is still a hundred taels of gold here. You are just right. Take it to buy furniture and things.”
“How could Ye Jieyu be so kind? Didn’t she lift Aunt Ye everywhere, pressing you down and not letting you move?” Zhong Clan took the land deed to check, there was no surprise on the face, only panic. In her heart, the Ye family didn’t have a good thing, and they did nothing but to commit crimes and steal. If her daughter was so close to her, she might be scammed one day.
Guan Suyi took out the rhetoric she had thought about a long time ago, “This is different from the past. She pressed me because she was afraid that I would be unfavorable to the two children left by her sister. But after all these years, what kind of person I am, presumably She also knew that Aunt Ye had to pinch the tip to be strong, she had already trapped Zhao Chunxi and Zhao Wangshu, and now she gave birth to a concubine. Regardless of the source of chaos, Aunt Ye has a big heart. She is going to cheat her two children. I have to change my way and hold me up. No matter who she suppresses or promotes, we can only suffer. Anyway, our family is poor and nothing is worthwhile.”
Zhong thought so, and then happily accepted the title deed and gold. The two went to visit the old man in the back hall, and found that he was in good spirits, and they quickly talked about the move, which made him feel happy.

In Zhenbei Houfu, Ye Fan was sitting on the bed wiping tears. Zhao Chunxi was holding a medicine bowl to persuade him, “The doctor said, let you have a confinement, and don’t see the wind. There are a lot of people in the front hall, and there is no shortage of people. The host is entertaining, what are you going to do? Are you lying down now? Listen to me, hurry up and get your body up so that my father will not worry about it outside.”
“If he was really worried about me, he wouldn’t immediately give Guan Suyi’s life after I gave birth to Guang’er, and ran to Tongcheng to calm the chaos, and it would be more than half a year after I left. What do you think I want to go out? Me and Hou The mother gave me a big reward when we married, and we got a great reward on the day we got married. I thought it would be the same this time, and the mother would send someone to show me my head, so that she will be able to support the sick and rush to entertain the guests. She actually asked Guan Suyi that little **** to talk to the palace. She was like Master Hou, who was slapping me in the face! Whatever I didn’t do well, just tell me directly, why bother to abuse people like this. “
The more she talked, the more sad she got, and she looked like she was about to faint.
Zhao Chunxi was persuaded on the surface, but inside was extremely disdainful. Why didn’t my mother give Ye Fan a face? Wasn’t she afraid that she would have a big heart after giving birth to a bastard, and want to be pressured? It’s time for her to understand that without the support of her father, mother, and herself, she is nothing, not even Guan Suyi.
