Gu Yuanbai was sick for several days, and when he recovered, the course of action had advanced to Lizhou.

This matter he only gave the general direction, the specific how to introduce the governor of Lizhou into the trap, so that it dares to eat the fish bait in today's anti-corruption juncture, he left it all to the ministers under him.

Kong Yilin's sword is a deep city, and he believes that Kong Yilin will do this perfectly.

This disease so that Gu Yuanbai rose a few points rather urgent sense of crisis, after recovering from the disease, despite the body is still weak, it is thrown into the construction of the country, who persuade are no use.

When this day came, Gu Yuanbai received a message from Mrs. Wan.

Tai Fei's words were gentle, through a few misses, letting people come to ask Gu Yuanbai to go for a catch up, she misses the Emperor.

Only then did Gu Yuanbai put down his pen, and when he raised his head, he suddenly had a sense of being out of this world. He froze with anxiety for a moment and said with a laugh, "Who secretly went to inform the Imperial Concubine?"

Tian Fusheng pleaded, "Your Holiness, it was a small force that did this, and I am willing to be punished."

Gu Yuanbai sighed as he looked towards the sunny sky outside the hall for a moment, "What are you being punished for? It's all just caring for me."

He was out of his mind for a moment and got up, saying, "Then, as the Dowager Consort said, let's go see the Dowager Consort."

Capital Manor.

Mrs. Wan smiled gently, gently fanning Gu Yuanbai's bushel and watching him eat his tea.

Mrs. Wan was now only in her early forties, still a vibrant age in modern times, but now, there was a dull twilight between Mrs. Wan's demeanor and mannerisms.

She stayed in the harem for more than ten years, and early years and took a childless drug, body bones hurt the root, and did not have the heart to live well, although the face is not old, but already permeated with old age.

Some months ago, Mrs. Wan got sick, the imperial doctor said that Mrs. Wan is very difficult to survive the summer, Gu Yuanbai is not not want to come to see Mrs. Wan, but Mrs. Wan is not willing to see him often.

Since the little emperor ascended to the throne, the two have met less often. But the love among them has not been reduced, Mrs. Wan just because of Gu Yuanbai's body, thinking that less see less face, less talk, by the time she left, at least to feel better.

Comfortable in the shade under the tree, Gu Yuanbai stopped after his belly was slightly full, Mrs. Wan let someone send a cool handkerchief and said with a smile, "Recently the heat has risen, is the palace ready to overheat things?"

Gu Yuanbai subconsciously looked toward Tian Fusheng, who busily said, "Back to the Dowager Consort, everything has been prepared."

Wan Taifei looked at Gu Yuanbai and smiled, "Look at you, Tian Fusheng said with me that you have been so busy in recent days that you have forgotten to eat when I still do not believe it, and now look, he did not say exaggerated. The world is busy again, it's hard not to be all the things are urgent in this moment and a half?"

Gu Yuanbai laughed bitterly, "You said it."

"What I say again," Mrs. Wan said, "has to be heard by you, Your Majesty."

Gu Yuanbai kindly explained, "Recently, the state affairs are busy and cannot leave me."

Consort Wan looked up at Tian Fusheng again.

Tian Fusheng lowered his head, but bold, "Indeed busy, but all matters have been on the hand, adults are the pillars of the country, the saint really do not have to be so involved in everything."

Gu Yuanbai laughed and cursed, "Tian Fusheng--"

"What, the Emperor still won't let it be said?" Mrs. Wan laughed in anger, "Look at what Tian Fusheng said, this is the real word. The emperor's body himself are not cherish, and how to let the people around him can let go of their hearts?"

After these few words, Mrs. Wan was already a bit tired, she slowed down for a while and sighed, "Yuanbai, never joke with your own body."

Gu Yuanbai was silent for a moment before he answered in a low voice.

Mrs. Wan looked at the tree shadows, between the light spots cast, her tone slowly, mixed with the thickness of more than ten years of time, "When the late emperor was, always said to be a good emperor. But the late emperor always said and could not do, busy political affairs, the late emperor did not have the patience to sit motionless to deal with political affairs, this day dragged a day, the last tired or their own."

"After you were born, the late emperor has been considered diligent. But such diligent administration has not reduced rest, the late emperor went to worship Buddha and have fun in his leisure time, Yuan Bai, the late emperor all knew that he had to rest, and could not tire himself out. He acted in such a way, and nothing ever went wrong in Daheng. I think that's how emperors should be, don't you think so?"

Tai Consort Wan did not know the state of Daheng's country, nor did she know what Gu Yuanbai was busy with. Her remarks were much too naive, but they were from a mother's point of view, hoping that her child would leave herself a break.

Gu Yuanbai didn't retort, just said with a smile, "Mother Consort Wan said yes."

After lunch, Mrs. Wan went back to her bedroom to rest. Gu Yuanbai led a slow walk in the manor to take a stroll, hundreds of flowers bloomed, green grass leisurely. If you see too much green, the whole person seems to be cleaned up.

Bird cries continued to be heard, Gu Yuanbai's footsteps were leisurely as he walked alongside the water stream, chatting with those around him, "I was really busy and dizzy some time ago, and I happened to look up before realizing that it was already almost summer."

He finished his own out of focus, Wan Tai Fei can survive this summer?

Gu Yuanbai through to see the number of times after the Wan Tai Fei hand can be counted, but even so, the memory of the emotions also let him on the body of the Wan Tai Fei worry, the doctor resident, every two days with the Gu Yuanbai report on the body of the Wan Tai Fei situation. Then he thought, I think the concubine must also be so worried about his body.

Gu Yuanbai thought slowly, his entire body slowing down. Tian Fusheng by his side said, "Your Holiness, it's useless for the little ones to persuade you, but you always have to listen to so much of what Imperial Concubine Wan says."

"I don't want to see you right now," Gu Yuanbai raised his chin, "Stay aside."

Tian Fusheng smiled and retreated, and Xue Yuan rushed to take a big step before the head of the guards came forward, pretending to be closest to Gu Yuanbai.

Gu Yuanbai gave him a sideways, sidelong glance as soon as the heat source leaned in, "Stay away from me."

Xue Yuan gasped and laughed, "Your Holiness, you praised the minister two days ago for being hot and comfortable all over."

The corners of Gu Yuanbai's mouth hooked up harshly as he said with a smile, "Servant Xue has the benefit of being hot when he's hot, and being so hot when he shouldn't be is a bit annoying."

Xue Yuan pressed his brows together and didn't say anything.

Gu Yuanbai laughed and took a few more steps, but then he stepped on a slippery spot, and when his feet slipped, his entire body was about to plunge into the water.

Xue Yuan's heart was startled as he reached out and yanked on Gu Yuanbai's belt, and in a narrow escape, he violently yanked Gu Yuanbai back. The force of the impulse also caused Xue Yuan to fall backward, and before he fell, he pulled Gu Yuanbai into his arms and rolled a few times on the ground and fell into a haystack to the side.

Gu Yuanbai's belt was grabbed by Xue Yuan, and after Xue Yuan stabilized himself, Gu Yuanbai was pressed underneath him, and he was still dazed, Xue Yuan's hand was still on Gu Yuanbai's waist, and he was able to touch the side of his pants under his hand.

His mind was blank, Xue Yuan only remembered the three words of picking his pants, and his hand subconsciously went along with it, his entire body was in a state of daze.

Looking down, the whole thing stiffened in place.

Saw it.

Gu Yuanbai felt a coldness underneath his body and finally came back to his senses, he braced himself to look and saw Xue Yuan picking at his pants in a worried stare, the whole person was out of his mind, as if he was like drinking ecstasy.

Gu Yuanbai's face darkened, and when he heard the voices of the guards next to him running this way in alarm, he angrily said, "Don't even come over!"

The guards stopped in their tracks and stood not far from the haystack, looking at the clothes of His Holiness and Servant Xue folded together behind the grass, confused, "Your Holiness?"

His Holiness grimaced, his voice frightening, "Get lost."

With a carp, Xue Yuan loosened his grip on his pants and backed away in a panic. His movement was so big that it startled the surrounding guards who were about to retreat. Everyone stared blankly at Xue Yuan, but Xue Yuan only remembered the word "get lost" as he pushed through the crowd and was about to stride away.

Xue Yuan had a sharp and handsome face, and that wickedly handsome face with eyebrows flying into his temples was already thoroughly red through and through.

The other guards returned to their senses and also hurriedly followed and rolled out. Xue Yuan hadn't even taken two steps in his stride when he was abruptly called to a halt.

Gu Yuanbai was still lying on the grass, half propped up, a few small tender grasses stuck to his body, his face dark enough to drip ink, "Xue Yuan--"

Xue Yuan's entire body was numb, he directly turned around and knelt on the ground, he couldn't even struggle to get up, "I beg to apologize."

The other guards had long since fled when they saw this face of the saint.

Gu Yuanbai gripped the grass on the ground and revealed a dangerously oozing smile. He slowly sat up and looked at Xue Yuan with a scrutinizing gaze.

Xue Yuan was uncomfortable being looked at, and his previous blush was even getting heavier, and the red color could be seen on his handsome face and on the roots of his ears.

What kind of expression is that, looking at his Gil and blushing?

Gu Yuanbai stood up and approached Xue Yuan with a cold smile, lifting his foot and ruthlessly crushing his animal root without mercy, "Xue Jiuyao, I thought that before you wanted to see my offspring root was just a moment of nonsense, but I didn't expect that you actually hid this thought!"

"......" Xue Yuan's expression instantly twisted in pain, did not dare to move, he did not know what he was thinking at this time, underneath the pain of the brain is blank, between the cold sweat, subconsciously loud, "I am a piece of loyalty to the king's heart! "

Gu Yuanbai's feet stopped.

Xue Yuan's face is full of sweat, his eyes and expression are filled with the word "firm", he called this sentence is powerful, without any hesitation, seems to say is the truth, his heart is a loyal heart.

Gu Yuanbai originally thought that Xue Yuan, the future male protagonist of the delayed beauty article who would bend, was getting up to him, running over his things originally intended to directly abolish Xue Yuan. Upon hearing this, his eyes narrowed slightly and he looked at Xue Yuan with intimidating power, repeating in a slow voice, "Loyalty to the king?"

Beads of sweat rolled down Xue Yuan's head.

Under Gu Yuanbai's dragon boots was the lifeblood, and with this attitude, Gu Yuanbai was clearly planning to waste him at the drop of a hat. The brother also seemed to know that this was not the time for skin, and peacefully dared not raise his head.

Xue Yuan said decisively, "Loyalty to the king."

It hurt, and besides the pain, there seemed to be a little indefinable pleasure.

Gu Yuanbai towered over him, and when Xue Yuan looked up at him, he saw his white neck and jaw, his robe couldn't block his legs, and when he gently lifted his foot and stepped on Xue Yuan, his long legs showed traces.

The more ruthless and careless the Holy Lord's expression was mixed with danger, the more Xue Yuan's heart trembled.

It was even more exciting than going into battle and killing thousands of enemy heads.

Gu Yuanbai didn't know whether to believe or not, he didn't know what came to his mind and snorted, "You Xue Jiujiuyao still have the heart of a loyal ruler?"

The tip of his heart jerked twice more.

Xue Yuan was as drunk as he was, and still had to sober up the wine, and he honestly said, "My father taught me what loyalty to the king is."

Gu Yuanbai said in his heart, he doesn't know whether Xue Yuan is loyal or not, but he trusts General Xue's loyalty to the king by five points.

Looking at Xue Yuan's tone, look, it really doesn't look like a lie. Gu Yuanbai's feet were confiscated, but first asked, "Servant Xue's loyalty to the king is to come and pick my pants?"

Xue Yuan thought, "Here it comes.

He pulled up a smile, at this juncture, the bottom of leading an army with a general suddenly came back, "I just tugged at His Holiness's belt, as if inadvertently knocked into His Holiness's leg again, and in a moment of impatience, I wanted to peel off my pants and take a look."

Gu Yuanbai looked at him critically for a long time, but finally withdrew his foot, and the moment the dragon boots returned to the ground, the sweat on Xue Yuan's head subsided, and his heart secretly breathed a sigh of relief. But after the relief Xue Yuan also wondered, his old man said that he is loyal to the heart of the king, that is, he is also relieved for what? How out of nowhere vain up?

"Like this vulgar and brainless action," the little emperor's face was calm, but the ruthlessness was appalling, "If there is a next time, I will directly give you abolished!"

Little brother a pain, Xue Yuan face flowed out of the pain hideous color, he held back, said, "Chen ...... Chen know."
