Seeing Zhang Tao, Shuang Yu cried happily and returned to Zhang Tao. Zhang Tao smiled and patted Shuang Yu, while Lu Kong looked at Zhang Tao with a complicated face. If Zhang Tao hadn't turned the tide, he would have died today.
.
Yang Xiaobai's face was full of smiles, Lin Qian's face was expressionless, Gu Bin's face was jealous, but King Gu was grateful, "See the emperor, the emperor is safe and sound, it's great." Zhang Tao was about to kneel down, but
He was stopped by Gu Longtian, "Forgive me, if I hadn't been escorted by you today, I would have really been in danger. I'm very pleased with your loyalty to me. Tell me, what reward do you need?" Zhang Tao used his body to block the attack, like this
If you are loyal, the emperor will like it.
"Wei Chen is the commander of the Forbidden Palace, and it is our responsibility to protect the emperor. What kind of reward do you dare to ask for?" Zhang Tao said respectfully.
"Haha! Everything that just happened is still vivid in my mind. My dear, you actually used your body to block the attack of a strange beast. If I don't reward you, won't others say that I don't distinguish between loyal and treacherous? The rewards and punishments are unknown?" Gu Longtian?
Said with a smile.
Zhang Tao did not answer, but was more respectful, "Zhang Tao, are you willing to join my royal family like my teacher Gu He?" Gu Longtian was not giving an order but asking.
However, just such an inquiry caused the expressions of the surrounding ministers to change, as well as the expressions of Gu Wang and Gu Bin. If Zhang Tao was given the surname Gu by Gu Long! Even if he is a foreigner and is not considered a relative, he will fly up to the branch and change his face.
Phoenix, this momentary change can definitely change a person's life.
This is what many ministers dream of, but everyone is still very confused. Even if they sacrifice their lives to protect him, it is not that small, right? It seems that the emperor has a preference for Zhang Tao, and everyone is speculating whether he wants to borrow it.
Ji and Zhang Tao get closer?
Although Lin Qian's face was expressionless, his eyes were confused, and he was obviously thinking about other things. In fact, it was not because of Lin Qian that Zhang Tao was favored by Gu Longtian later. Although it was Lin Qian's reason for moving into the East Palace, but
That was caused by Lin Qian.
At first, Lin Qian saw that Zhang Tao had made amazing progress in both strength and wisdom. He was definitely the best person to help him, and he could even share the world with Zhang Tao! That's why he gave Zhang Tao a place where no one could restrain him and let Zhang Tao go on his own.
Develop strength to help yourself in the end.
Lin Qian also believed that Zhang Tao could do it with his strength, but he didn't expect that he would be rejected! Zhang Tao actually rejected him for a classmate this year? And now the more power Zhang Tao has, the more he is valued by Gu Longtian, but instead he treats him
The less beautiful he becomes! Lin Qian's heart is also full of complexity.
But Lin Qian sneered at Gu Longtian's request. Although Zhang Tao was very honest and willing to suffer losses, deep down Zhang Tao was an extremely proud person and would never change his name.
"The emperor loves me so much that I am flattered, but how can I become a member of the royal family with such virtue? Today's protection is just my job. If the emperor gives me such a heavy reward! In the future, anyone who has such loyal and loyal people will be
Don’t they all have to join the royal family? I really deserve it, and I ask the emperor to take back my life." Zhang Tao said euphemistically. In fact, only the highly respected Gu He can be the only person with a foreign surname to become a royal family. Gu He can get this title.
, not only because he is the Imperial Master, but also because of his qualifications. And why should Zhang Tao?
So these words are not disrespectful, just modest. "Haha! Okay! Zhang Tao, you are indeed a talent. In this case, I will grant you the freedom to kneel when you see me on any occasion in the future. Not only that,
You don’t need to be called emperor and minister, from now on I will call you Zhang Tao, and you can call me uncle emperor? I wonder if you are willing?" Gu Longtian said with a smile.
This reward is not simple! Although it has nothing substantial, it represents a kind of specialness and an expression of status. Zhang Tao did not hesitate and immediately knelt down, "Thank you, Your Majesty." This was the last time Zhang Tao called him the Emperor.
This is also the last time to kneel down! But this is also necessary.
"Haha! Get up, Zhang Tao." Gu Longtian laughed, looking very happy.
From afar, Gu Weiran cast congratulatory and admiring glances. Zhang Tao and Gu Weiran exchanged glances and smiled at each other, all without saying a word.
"Let's end today's hunting." Gu Longtian didn't mention a word about the jade pendant reward competition. Gu Bin could only admit defeat, but he was extremely unhappy with everything Zhang Tao got.
After driving back to the palace, Gu Longtian didn't mention today's accident again, nor did he ask anyone to investigate. Even those who had doubts in their hearts would not speak out.
"Brother Zhang, it's all thanks to your wit this time." Lu Kong said sincerely. Although Zhang Tao also benefited, Lu Kong was still grateful. He truly admired Zhang Tao...
Zhang Tao shook his head, "This is just my responsibility. Brother Lu doesn't have to do this."
"Hey... Speaking of responsibilities, I really neglected my duties this time. If it weren't for Brother Zhang, the consequences would be unimaginable. But what happened today?" Lu Kong said softly.
Zhang Tao shook his head, "Be careful, Brother Lu, if you really feel you owe me, why not treat me to a drink another day?"
"Okay! It's a deal!" Lu Kong said happily, suppressing what happened today forever in his heart.
Today's events were passed without any danger. Zhang Tao returned to another hospital to practice Qigong to heal his injuries. If his internal organs were shocked and left alone, his skills would decline. This is not a trivial matter.
In the imperial study room, Gu Longtian changed his smile to a cold look on his face, "Did you find out? Shadow?"
"The alien beast is not bloodthirsty by nature, but it is extremely disgusted with a fragrance. This smell is like the fruity aroma of apples. Humans may ignore it, but it can smell it clearly. This spice is called
"Shadow is floating!" Shadow said.
"Yingpiao? When have I ever used such spices? Do you mean that the invasion of alien beasts is really not a coincidence?" Gu Longtian asked. The cold light in his eyes grew stronger.
"The ancient king once gave the emperor a talisman that brought prosperity to the country and peace to the people! The emperor always carried it with him, and his subordinates investigated that there was a shadow floating on the talisman, but it was very thin, so it was not easy to detect." Shadow said lightly.
"Ancient King? It was three years ago when he gave me this talisman? I didn't expect that he planned to kill me three years ago. He was so ambitious! I promised her to bypass his life back then, but I didn't expect that he would do it again and again.
You will persecute me!" Gu Longtian's eyes were filled with cold light, and the killing intent on his body was not concealed at all.
The shadow below remained silent. He only accepted orders and was indifferent to other things. After a while, Gu Longtian's anger gradually calmed down. "Okay! This matter is confidential. You can go down." Gu Long said this.
Tian seemed a little tired, and the shadow said yes and then disappeared.
"Wan'er, I don't know how long I can hold on, but I will try my best to hold on. I promised you that I would not kill him unless it was absolutely necessary, and I did it." At this time, Gu Longtian's eyes were full of sadness and longing.
In Gu Weiran's house, Meng Hua smiled and said, "It seems like this guy got an advantage and acted like a good boy."
"Yes, how prepared is the Yunyan Chamber of Commerce? We have to start." Gu Weiran said.
"Actually, I really didn't expect you to have such a good relationship with the two of them! On the surface, they are incompatible, and everyone knows this." Meng Hua sighed.
Gu Weiran smiled, "I left the imperial city back then just to not attract attention. My queen mother was actually kind to them, so these two old generals looked at me with admiration. This is also my blessing.
It’s also my trump card to save my life.”
"It seems that you haven't even visited them since you returned to the imperial city, right?" Meng Hua asked.
"Yes, it has always been a taboo for a prince to get too close to the military and government. Of course I will not be so stupid as to violate my father's bottom line. I will not force the palace, but I will never let them succeed." Gu Weiran said here.
, with unprecedented firm determination.
Meng Hua nodded, "Don't worry, we will help you."
Gu Weiran nodded heavily. Yi Tinghan on the side just poured tea for the two of them silently, without saying a word in the process. Zhang Tao also finished meditating and recovered, with no injuries. This feeling is extremely pleasant.
"The competition between the four forbidden palaces is about to begin. I think it's almost over." Although Zhang Tao has not been in contact with the imperial guards for a long time, his prestige has been slowly established. Zhang Tao can still use this simple trick of combining kindness and power.
.
"Chen Mi, gather everyone together, I have something to announce." Zhang Tao said.
"yes."
Soon, everyone gathered together. Zhang Tao looked at them and was slightly satisfied. The difference from the first time he came here was really huge. "I believe you all know that the Forbidden Palace Competition is a...
This is a friendship and mutual improvement, but our East Palace has the title of either first or last, I believe everyone knows why." Zhang Tao said lightly.
The people below immediately started whispering to each other, but Zhang Tao did not stop him. "What do you think? When they all thought that our East Palace would definitely be at the bottom this time, but this time we did the opposite.
We don't want them to know our dedication and efforts. On the day of the competition, we will make another desperate counterattack and completely create a myth of our own!"
Zhang Tao's proposal obviously made them very excited. Zhang Tao knew that the heat was enough and what was needed was practice. He then told them how to train without being seen. I'm afraid no one would have thought of it! Zhang Tao would contribute his own hospital.
, let them serve as a location for special training.
Except for those who are basically on guard, everyone else must undergo special training. Zhang Tao promised that if he succeeds this time, everyone will be rewarded!
Zhang Tao's promise is highly trustworthy. After all, Zhang Tao calls the emperor his uncle! Under the heavy reward, there must be a brave man! Under the temptation of fame and fortune! The atmosphere in the East Palace has completely changed.
(A new month is about to begin, and a new outbreak is about to begin, so please look forward to it)
