Chapter 48 [In the future, Mawei Slope will cut the rope]
The night is hazy and the moon is bright. The strong wind blowing outside is gradually becoming smaller.
At this moment, I suddenly heard footsteps coming from afar. After a moment, Gao Lishi's voice sounded respectfully at the door.
"Empress, the old slave is Gao Lishi. I heard about something and felt that I should report it to you."
"Empress, have you rested? If you are already tired, the old slave will not come in. I will stand outside and report and whisper to you."
Yang Yuhuan did not agree immediately, but walked slowly back to the warm couch, picked up the sewing basket, and started sewing the small swaddle again. Then he said lightly: "Let's come in and talk."
Only after she agreed did Gao Lishi dare to enter the door.
But the old guy didn't dare to approach, but knelt down seven or eight steps. He was clearly here to report, but he didn't make a sound.
Until Yang Yuhuan spoke again, he said leisurely: "Don't kneel down, stand up and say. If you choose to come here late at night, it must be an important thing."
Gao Lishi then stood up and replied respectfully: "The Empress guessed well. The old slave did find out something. Maybe it was nothing to others, but after the old slave heard it, he felt that the Empress might care."
Yang Yuhuan didn't raise her head and continued to do needlework, as if she said carelessly: "Is it Guo Ziyi's business?"
Gao Lishi nodded quickly, his voice becoming more and more respectful: "Just as the Empress said."
Yang Yuhuan said 'um' and continued to say casually: "Tell me, I'll listen. Come over and don't have to be so far away. You are an old man in the palace and a eunuch. So you don't need to be reserved. If you are too reserved, you are fake."
It was obviously casual words, but there was a hint of knocking. Gao Lishi was so scared that he hurried forward, knelt in front of the warm couch with a thud, and swearing: "Empress, I am really accomplice. Last time, it was because of Your Majesty's inquiry that I had to confess to leaving the palace privately, but I was not betrayed the Empress, I was really afraid that Your Majesty would kill me."
"I know, don't be so scared. What's the matter with the grand chief of the inner steward kneeling in front of me, a girl? If this matter is spread, wouldn't it be a big joke?"
"Don't worry, Empress, I promise that no one dares to be stupid. If anyone in the palace is too talkative, I will pull her tongue off."
"Okay, I know you are loyal. Tell me, what the hell is it."
When Gao Lishi heard Yang Yuhuan ask what he was asking for the third time, he finally put down a big stone in his heart. The old guy looked excited and knew that he had finally been re-approved.
Since he was re-approved, it was the little leg of the Huaqing Palace. He hurriedly walked a few steps, knelt directly in front of the warm bed, and began to report: "Empress, I am on duty in the hall today, and I heard from the ministers report a strange thing to His Majesty. Someone from the Ministry of War secretly had an affair with the vassal states, and he secretly sold arms to Fanyang..."
"As a result, I never thought that the work was not done well, so the military was robbed by a certain force on the way before the armour was shipped."
"There are 108 vehicles of ordnances, which are said to be good things done by the northwestern vassal states, but there are 12 vehicles of ordnances, and the process of loss is very bizarre."
"And there was another princess who was frightened and almost fell into the hands of the bandits. Fortunately, a man named Guo Dazhuang rescued the princess by chance."
"According to the old me, this princess is from the Wuyang County Prince's family. He has been a child and is almost not weak. How can a princess like this be frightened casually?"
"Also, it is said that this little princess has a very beautiful appearance, but she is extremely generous. She has a grandmother who was once a giant in the Green Forest."
"Empress, can you understand what I said? The twelve vehicles of weapons were mysteriously lost, the beautiful but generous princess, and Guo Dazhuang who passed by and rescued..."
Gao Lishi said this and his expression seemed particularly flattering: "Actually, I don't know if the Empress will be interested in this matter, but I just feel that I should come and report. If the Empress thinks that the Empress is troublesome, the Empress will immediately slap his mouth."
He is truly a cunning person.
It is said that it is a slap in the mouth, but it is clearly taking credit.
Sure enough, Yang Yuhuan smiled slightly, picked up a golden spoon from the table, and threw it on the ground with a clang, and said lightly: "I'll give it to you, and I'll use it for flowers."
As the chief supervisor of the big inner court, Gao Lishi is actually not short of money. He is even a huge wealthy person, and many ministers give him gifts.
However, when the old guy faced the golden spoon he threw down, he seemed to have received a huge gift. He immediately picked it up with both hands and wiped it with his sleeves.
Yang Yuhuan smiled again and said, "Okay, don't show me your attitude. Since I have accepted you as a slave again, I just treat you as my own person. You have been very good at exploring this matter today, and you have made the first contribution you have made on my side."
Gao Lishixi's old face was bright, so he carefully put away the golden spoon.
At this time, Yang Yuhuan slowly looked up, as if he was looking at the night outside the window, and suddenly smiled slightly, saying with a deep meaning: "A young and beautiful princess was rescued by a honest man. Why does this sound familiar? It looks like a story in a book."
"Interesting, interesting, really interesting. This girl is afraid she wants to do it."
"There is that bad thing. As expected, the dog can't change the food. When he sees a beautiful woman, he can't pull his legs, and he doesn't think about whether he wants to let him hang out."
Suddenly, Yang Yuhuan turned around, picked up the small swaddle in the needle and thread basket, threw it at Gao Lishi, and threw it directly into Gao Lishi's arms, and said in a deep voice: "You are the chief supervisor of the inner city, and you must have many people under your command. Even outside the palace, there are ministers to help you do things..."
The smart man didn't need to explain, Gao Lishi had already nodded quickly and said, "Did the Empress ask the old slave to send this cradle? Who are you going to? Guo Ziyi?"
Yang Yuhuan stood up, reached out and gently stroked his lower abdomen, and suddenly smiled evilly, just like the moonlit girl. He asked Gao Lishi leisurely: "Can you tell how many months I'm pregnant?"
Gao Lishi shivered in fear and lowered his head without thinking. Not only did he not dare to look at Yang Yuhuan's lower abdomen, but he also knocked his head to the ground with his voice trembling: "Grandmaster, please spare me, I can't see it. I'm old and my eyes are already blurred."
Yang Yuhuan's face turned gloomy, his voice was like the cold frost. He said in a sequel: "The scrubbing clothes are indeed to be given to Guo Ziyi, but you shouldn't ask this. If there is another time, you should cut your tongue."
She is obviously just a girl now, and Gao Lishi is a powerful eunuch in the palace. But this rebuke is just right.
On the other hand, Gao Lishi breathed a sigh of relief and kowtowed desperately, "I thank the Empress for not killing her."
A smile appeared on Yang Yuhuan's face again, and she waved her hand and said, "Get up, you guessed it right. This little cradle is indeed going to be sent out of the palace, and it is indeed going to be given to Guo Ziyi. This may be difficult, I wonder if you can do it..."
Gao Lishi immediately looked up and said firmly with his old face: "Don't worry, Empress."
Yang Yuhuan waved his hand and signaled that he could leave. Suddenly, he seemed to remember something, and added with a deep meaning, saying, "When I send something, I will send me a message, if there is really Mawei Slope in the world, would he be willing to cut off the hanging rope."
Gao Lishi saluted respectfully and said, "If I write it down, I will definitely send this sentence over. Make sure it is still intact, and the tone is the same."
Yang Yuhuan waved his hand again and said without comment: "Go."
Gao Lishi bowed and left.
It was not until the old eunuch disappeared that Yang Yuhuan took a light breath. She picked up the sewing basket again and sewed the small swaddle again.
A sloppy self-written song began to echo in the palace again:
"You touch me all day long, and you don't pay for sleeping. Guo Ziyi, Guo Ziyi, you owe me a little money."
