Since Jiang Shanshan said these words to her, although he never mentioned them again, he was still staring at her.
Knowing that she was too defensive, she put it aside for the time being.
In the palace.
Gu Yuan took out a box embedded in the beam from the roof of the official building. If he hadn't gone up to check it in person, he wouldn't have been able to see it from underneath.
Xiao Xuanyi coughed several times before reluctantly stopping, "Is this the defense plan?"
Gu Yuan checked it and opened it after finding nothing abnormal.
He took a few glances, and after confirming that it was correct, he nodded to him, "It is indeed a defense plan."
He said and handed it to him.
Xiao Xuanyi understood what he meant, but he didn't ask for it. He didn't find this thing in the first place, and he shouldn't get the credit.
What's more, he is just a companion.
Gu Yuan had his own thoughts. The two of them were close, and he could only hear him whisper: "You take it, that's the best result for us."
Xiao Xuanyi frowned slightly, but finally took it.
The two of them waited until the next court session and came to the emperor and presented the things.
The emperor, who had been struggling all these days and had given up all hope, was overjoyed and a little excited when he saw that the defense map had been found.
"I actually found it. Are you sure it's the defense plan hidden by Liu Yang?"
"Going back to my father, I have confirmed that the defense map is indeed true, and that this map was found in the beam of the official room of the guard station. Apart from Liu Yang, I am afraid there is no one else."
"Okay, okay, okay." The emperor was overjoyed. He looked at his sickly son, thought about it, and made a plan.
He put the defense plan in his hand and then said: "Lao Qi and the Gu family boy, you two have contributed a lot to this matter and have contributed to the imperial government. Let's talk about it! What reward do you want?"
Xiao Xuanyi bowed his head and said, "It is my wish to share my father's worries. If we talk about rewards, I only hope that in the prosperous age, the country will be peaceful and the people are safe, and my father will live forever and live forever."
"I just did my duty and didn't dare to ask for rewards." Gu Yuan followed.
The emperor smiled with satisfaction and looked between the two of them, as if he had paid close attention to his son for the first time.
He sighed for a while and said: "It would seem stingy of me not to reward you for such achievements. If Lao Qi is not in good health, I can't teach you how to do many things. From now on, I will join the Ministry of Etiquette as a temporary employee."
Xiao Xuanyi received the order, his expression did not show any joy, he was still calm and composed, and his sickly look was very similar to the face in his memory.
The emperor recovered his thoughts and looked at Gu Yuan again, "As for the Gu family boy, huh, I'll leave it to you and Lao Liu to send the Liao people away as soon as possible."
Now that the defense map has been found, there is no need for the Liao people to stay any longer. He has a headache now that he hears about alliances and marriages.
I'm almost bored to death these days, and I don't even go to the harem very often.
How annoying!
Xiao Xuanyi and Gu Yuan accepted the order and retreated after a while.
Now that the thing has been found, the rest is not up to them.
After leaving the palace gate, the two of them sat in the carriage. Xiao Xuanyi looked at the booklet, which contained precious medicinal materials and some silks, gold and silver treasures that the emperor had rewarded.
Not only did he raise his lips sarcastically.
"The emperor has been sitting for a long time, how can he still remember that he is a father, a king is a king, and a minister is a minister."
What can maintain their relationship is nothing more than interests.
Gu Yuan's expression was indifferent, "That's fine, too many emotions would be troublesome."
Xiao Xuanyi nodded when he heard this. If he was as favored by the emperor as the Sixth Prince, I'm afraid he wouldn't live to be this old.
"However, being able to take a temporary position in the Ministry of Etiquette this time is also a good thing. Your Highness should take advantage of it."
"I know, but you..." Xiao Xuanyi hesitated before speaking.
The emperor asked Gu Yuan to work with the Sixth Prince, obviously intending for him to have a good relationship with the Sixth Prince, and it would be best if he could be used by him.
After all, Gu Yuan represents the Duke of Jingguo. With the Gu family here, the Sixth Prince's position will be more stable.
Only those others who are not very peaceful can be feared.
As for him, he is a weak and powerless prince who will ascend to heaven one day, so what's the use of having connections?
It's better to give it all to his precious son.
It is difficult for him to consider everything for the sake of his favorite six sons.
Thinking of this, Xiao Xuanyi chuckled.
Gu Yuan glanced at him and said in a low voice: "Your Highness, don't worry, the Duke's Palace has no intention of collaborating with him."
"I know, I'm just laughing at this Sixth Prince brother, who has gotten everything so easily since he was born!"
Gu Yuan was silent.
When they arrived at East Street, Xiao Xuanyi, who was used to going home alone, followed Gu Yuan out of the car this time.
We couldn't push him back, so we had to take him with us.
Jiang Shanshan, who was almost healed from his injuries, was also quite surprised to learn that the Seventh Prince had arrived.
When I saw the person, I was about to kneel down and salute, but he raised his hand to stop me.
"You are injured, so you don't have to salute." The man in silver-white clothes stretched out his long, white hands and spoke in a low voice.
The pale face was so handsome and delicate that Jiang Shanshan couldn't help but take a few more glances, which made Gu Yuan's face darken.
Seeing this, Xiao Xuanyi curled his lips slightly.
This time it was my mother who made the tea, so it was rare for her to drink it.
"Is there anything the Seventh Highness has come to the residence for?"
Jiang Shanshan asked.
Originally she just wanted to join in the fun, but after she asked, she remembered that she had a younger brother, and it was through him that she found the defense map.
With this thought in mind, he said: "I heard that my brother is smart and very good at painting. Why don't you call me over and have a look."
He is a prince, no matter how powerless he is, he is still a relative of the emperor.
It seems like a question, but in fact, you really don’t have the right to refuse.
Jiang Shanshan glanced at Gu Yuan and saw him nodding slightly, and then ordered Taohong to call the people over.
After a while, Jiang Mingxuan followed Taohong over. When he saw Xiao Xuanyi, he lowered his head and saluted him and Gu Yuan.
"Mingxuan met the prince and met Mr. Gu."
The young man is in Tsing Yi, with long hair half tied up. He looks elegant, elegant and clear.
There is a hidden edge in the lowered eyes.
Xiao Xuanyi looked at them indifferently and compared them with Jiang Shanshan. The two siblings looked pretty good. It's no wonder that a picky person like Gu Yuan couldn't walk when he saw them.
He has a pair of phoenix eyes, gentle and noble, and has an unrivaled temperament. When he raises his hands, he is full of elegance.
"Pingsheng!"
After Jiang Mingxuan heard this, he stood up and stood still.
"How old are you?" Xiao Xuanyi asked as if he suddenly became interested.
"Back to Your Highness, it's fifteen years old."
"What books do you read on weekdays?"
"Four Books and Five Classics."
The two asked and answered questions in harmony. Jiang Shanshan took advantage of this opportunity and blinked at Gu Yuan in confusion.
Gu Yuan nodded to her appeasingly and took her outside.
As soon as Jiang Shanshan came out, he couldn't help but ask, "What does the Seventh Highness mean? Why did you suddenly summon Mingxuan?"
"Perhaps...it's about cherishing your talent!"
"Cherish talent?"
"The defense map has been found. As your brother said, it is hidden in the palace."
"This... I really found it!" Jiang Shanshan sighed.
In this way, there are traces of what my brother did in the dream.
"In that case, what should we do with the officials involved?"
Gu Yuan raised his eyebrows, thinking of the roster she gave him, and asked, "What do you think?"
Jiang Shanshan wondered, "Shouldn't they all be killed?"
Gu Yuan: "..."
The emperor dare not do this now.
