Chapter 3: Dreamlike whispers
The Duke's wife got the letter that Gu Xiying had woken up, but the person who went to the palace to report the letter was still waiting anxiously at the palace gate.
The person who left the house to report the news was not the ordinary manager, but the captain of the British Duke's Mansion. The resolute figure of the soldier could not hide the joy and anxiety in his heart.
Even if the message to be transmitted is only four words: "The princess is awake", it is also a huge news for the Duke of England.
The young lieutenant saw the sergeant walking quickly across the palace road, across the bridge, and walking deep into the palace garden. He gradually calmed down. He humbly declined the kindness of the guard guard guard who invited him to enter the class room to rest and wait, and stood at the palace gate as if he was when he came.
"Who dares to stay at the palace gate? Your Highness King Jing left the palace and didn't retreat quickly." A shout came, which attracted everyone to look at each other. King Jing in the car also lifted the curtain and got out of the car. Before he could stop his coachman from rudely, he saw that the standing lieutenant did not rush to avoid it, but just quietly led the horse to move to the side.
Only this step is not disrespectful, but also nakedly ignorant.
What King Jing Zhou Guangli couldn't stand the most was the ignorance of others. He put away the magnanimous smile on his face and walked towards the man next to the palace gate step by step.
Those who can wait for news at the palace gate are nothing more than the servants in charge of the official family, and no one dares to touch the bad luck of King Jing.
"The palace gate is in great importance, and you must not stop at anything. Which family are you from? You don't understand the rules." King Jing refused to mention the soldiers and officers, but just spoke at the servants, and did not take this person seriously in his words.
The agile soldier noticed the condensation of the atmosphere and wanted to step forward to smooth things over: "Report to Your Highness King Jing, this person is..." Before he could finish speaking, King Jing looked at him deeply, and heard the man who was questioned whisperingly answer, "The last general Renyong Captain Zheng Zeng, have seen Your Highness King Jing."
I only report military rank but not origin, I only talk about it but not mention the visit. It is interesting.
Zhou Guangli narrowed his eyes dangerously and looked at the young captain. He did not see any avoidance or fear. He was about to attack, but he heard the horse beside him sniff and make a "thump" sound.
This horse was trained by the Northwest Army!
Although Zhou Guangli was not valued, he had been marching for many years and would never admit his mistakes. The entire Daqi could use this horse as a family in the mansion.
This person is probably from the Gu family.
Zhou Guangli looked at the young man carefully. Seeing that he was still calm, he couldn't help but sigh that he was worthy of being the Duke of England, and that even a guard could handle things like this.
"Zheng Zheng, the Duke of the Kingdom is playing chess with Your Majesty. No matter what important things you have, you will have waiting. Instead of standing here, it is better to go to the class room to rest for a while. If anyone passes by, I am not as easy to talk to." Zhou Guangli said with some meaning, which is very different from his contempt just now.
"Thank you for your teachings from Your Highness Jing." Zheng Zeng was humble and remained unmoved.
Zhou Guangli was too lazy to care about him, so he turned around and drove towards the mansion. The carriage had just moved forward, but he felt something was wrong and hurriedly changed the route to Zheng Wang Mansion.
No one cared about the little episode at the palace gate, but the guard who was telling the message walked across the palace corridor bridge and was hurried towards the inner palace gate, and then he ran into someone.
The visitor was wearing a brocade robe with lotus stems and sycamore colors, with dragon teeth embroidered on the cuffs of the robe. The golden deer Fei Lian's stance swaying constantly, indicating that the master was already in a hurry. He stopped hurriedly, although he was not angry, he was not as kind as usual. Aokiji's face showed a little sword-brow and starry eyes, and the attendants beside him were not even as angry as he could. The little sergeant who hit the visitor saw the visitor clearly, lowered his head and spoke.
"Zhao Yingsheng, the guard of the left supervisor, met the Seventh Prince." Xiaosen, was already very happy to receive the errand of this news. If the Duke of the State can remember such good news, wouldn't it be better to have a future career? Now that he meets the Seventh Prince, he is even more happy to see him. He heard that the Seventh Prince has an inseparable relationship with Min and Princess. If he gets a letter in advance, he can also read me.
Zhao Yingsheng bowed urgently while keeping his mind.
Zhou Guangyu originally learned that he was going to the British Duke's Mansion for advice tomorrow, but he was thinking whether he could go to see Gu Xiying in a coma. After discussing with Zhou Guangming, he was going to Queen Tian's place first and then ask for some useful things for Gu Xiying. He was busy preparing all day long, and he couldn't help but feel a little restless.
Zhou Guangyu scolded with a slightly displeased expression: "The inner palace is not far ahead. If you don't take a good job, you will walk on the palace road. You don't want to do your job."
Zhou Guangyu's accompanying Xu Yang stood aside, looking at the little army officer in front of him with sympathy. His Highness Seventh had been worried for a long time, and even if he never vented his anger, he was trying hard to restrain himself. His temperament was already a little more radical. The enthusiasm for studying and practicing martial arts always had an evil fire that was unstoppable, and he could not emit it.
I will go to the Duke of England tomorrow. My mind is like putting fire to put out the fire, but I am being hit. I am afraid that the fire at the top of the pole will pour out.
It’s good to send out the fire. Xu Yang thought to himself.
He always restrains himself with such a majestic identity. Even if Min and Princess woke up, His Highness's body would be punished and suffocated.
"I am responsible for the crime. It was just that the British Duke's Office sent someone to spread the message. Princess Min and Princess had already woken up and sent someone to report the letter to the Duke. I am afraid to neglect the matter when it is important. I hope the Seventh Prince will forgive him."
Zhao Yingsheng lowered his head in confusion. He knew that Zhou Guangyu was usually very noble but was kind to others. He had a legitimate reason and could not eat anything to slap, but he didn't expect that he seemed really angry in his words and was a little inaccurate for a while.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Guangyu smiled happily when he heard Zhao Yingsheng's first half of the words. Before he could finish his words, he quickly changed direction and walked towards the inner palace. Only one sentence was left on the palace road, "Your Highness passed this for you. See the reward." Then he disappeared.
Zhao Yingsheng raised his head blankly and looked at the guard Xuyang opposite him who was left by Zhou Guangyu. He didn't know whether he was remembered or not.

Xu Yang did not leave with Zhou Guangyu, but just smiled and looked at the obviously confused little army in front of him, and took out a small ingot of gold from his purse, "The errand was done very well today. I rewarded it by Your Highness Seventh. Go back and do your job well."
Seeing the person in front of him leave with satisfaction, he curled his lips and murmured his master in his heart and said that there was no fixed amount of reward. This ingot of gold has to be returned to pay the bill. I can't lose money because of His Highness's happiness.
Zhou Guangyu walked all the way to the entrance of Tianqu Palace (Imperial Study Room). Seeing that the chief supervisor Zheng Haiqing was not waiting at the door, he thought that there was no important matter in the palace, so he walked in without waiting for the news.
The emperor in the hall played chess with the British to the anxious place. For a moment, the two did not notice Zhou Guangyu coming in. Zheng Haiqing called out "Seventh Prince" in a low voice, and the two of them pulled out of the chessboard battle.
When the emperor saw that the visitor was Zhou Guangyu, he was not displeased at all. He just looked at the boy with a kind look.
The saying of the heavenly family without father and son never appears in this father and son. The emperor always loves his son like an ordinary father.
"My son has something important to do. He trespassed into the Tianqu Palace and asked his father to forgive him." When Zhou Guangyu saw the British Duke, he no longer had the urgency to walk on the palace road, and calmed down like the dust settled.
The emperor's loving eyes were on him since he discovered Zhou Guangyu. Seeing Zhou Guangyu look at Gu Yue beside him, he relaxed, thinking that he was a little urgent for tomorrow's affairs, and he was not as good as he was thinking about it. He just spoke with concern, "You must have something important to go along the way. Now that you see Huairen, you feel at ease. Tell me quickly."
"I just returned to my father. Xiao Wei sent a message saying that Minhe was awake. I thought that the Imperial Doctor had already passed by the mansion. My son knew that the British Duke was worried, so he took a trip." Zhou Guangyu looked happy and did not take credit. He only said that the news was heard by him and rushed to tell the British Duke.
Of course the emperor knew that Gu Xiying was the treasure of the entire Duke's Mansion, and immediately asked the Duke of the State to return home.
Gu Yue stretched his eyebrows and felt as if he was returning home, but he understood that today's game of chess was accompanied by the combat strategy of Xijiang. In addition, as long as people woke up, there was nothing to worry about. He just stood up, sat down again, and pushed the state affairs to make matters, so he picked up the chess piece again.
Zhou Guangyu stood aside and did not leave. He only felt satisfied when he watched the two of them fight back and forth. However, the emperor keenly discovered that after the British Duke received the news that his daughter woke up, his chess style changed and he became too sharp to attack and defend.
