The emperor was already used to catching the tea handed over by Gu Chengyu. After taking it, he drank it in one gulp and miraculously felt that the heaviness in his chest was relieved a lot.
"What kind of tea is this? Every time I drink this tea these past two days, I feel much refreshed." The emperor pursed his lips and asked with a smile.
"This is the Biluochun that you often drink, Your Majesty!" Gu Chengyu was not nervous. Anyway, the Emperor would not have guessed that there was a spirit spring in it.
The emperor nodded and did not ask further questions, as if it was just a whim.
"How have Brother Ye's eyes been these past two days? Is there any improvement?"
"Back to the emperor, the eldest prince is doing better than the previous two days. He can already see his figure!" Gu Chengyu turned to look at the emperor. He knew that the emperor was very tired, but the border issues could not wait any longer.
"So your pills have miraculous effects. Fortunately, you gave them to him at that time. It was actually a waste to give them to me." The emperor felt relieved. As long as Brother Ye's eyes can recover, there is still hope.
"Your Majesty, don't be pessimistic. Don't you see that you are much better now than you were two days ago?" Gu Chengyu had too many comforting words in the past two days. Gu Chengyu had compassion for a dying person.
"Your Majesty, it's too slow to only buy people at the border. I think we can expand the scope in the nearby state capitals. After the number of people is gathered, we can go to the border. There are only about 50,000 people at the moment, and there must be even fewer these days.
.In addition, Prince Gong’s forces are causing chaos, and they have begun to imitate us. They even spend more money to buy soldiers than the imperial court. If we don’t develop in other places, it will be difficult for us to gather a hundred thousand troops.”
Gu Chengyu sighed. Although Prince Gong's method was rogue, it was very useful. Although Prince Gong didn't have much money, he could still cause trouble for them in the early stage, and what they lacked was time.
There was news from a spy that Prince Gong and Prince Jing had formed an alliance. The two men were probably already planning on how to attack the imperial court. They must gather 200,000 troops as soon as possible to capture them in one fell swoop.
"Just do this! Deal with these two people as soon as possible, and we can take a breather." The emperor had a headache when he thought of this. He felt that he really couldn't hold on for much longer. He hoped that he would not leave Brother Ye with him before he died.
It's a mess that Brother Ye can't keep.
"Jin Yu! This time the envoy from Daxing came. Not only did he bring a prince, but he also brought a royal princess with him?" The emperor suddenly remembered something. What is the purpose of this royal princess coming to Dayan with the envoy? Is it just simple?
Are you here to see the world? This is unlikely.
After all, the envoy from Daxing came to Dayan this time for the purpose of establishing diplomatic relations between the two countries. He did not come to visit the mountains and rivers, so it was a bit strange to bring a girl with him.
"Yes! It is said to be the eighth princess Bayu!" Gu Chengyu nodded. This morning he took a look from a distance. At that time, he was also wondering why there was a princess here, but after thinking about it, he understood Daxing's purpose.
"What do you think?" The emperor asked Gu Chengyu to help him lie down. Lying down all day would make him cripple.
"Since ancient times, it has been believed that marriage is the most beneficial to promoting diplomatic relations between the two countries." Gu Chengyu disagreed. The princes of Dayan were already married, and it was impossible for the emperor to let those two marry the princess of Daxing.
The emperor's children are still very young. The eldest prince is only eight years old, and it is impossible to marry a princess. Therefore, even if the Daxing princess wants to marry, there is no suitable candidate. Of course, they don't have any suitable candidates here.
married a princess. However, this was what he found strange.
It’s impossible for Daxing not to know this, but he still brought the princess here. Could it be that he planned to find a suitable young master among Dayan’s courtiers to marry? The princess of Daxing came to Dayan to marry a young master from a noble family?
It's impossible. Isn't this just a short step short of Dayan? Is the princess of Daxing only worthy of marrying the courtiers of Dayan?
"It's not like they don't understand the situation of our Dayan. If you bring the princess here, who will you marry?" The emperor was a little confused. He also thought that Daxing wanted to get married, but there were really no good candidates in the royal family.
Both of them were already married to the main concubine. Could it be that the princess of Daxing still wanted to make herself a concubine? Suddenly, he turned his head and glanced at Gu Chengyu, then raised his eyebrows, his eyes becoming a little weird.
Gu Chengyu suddenly felt a chill all over his body, and the corner of his mouth twitched, "Maybe she wants to come with her brother to appreciate the cultural scenery of Dayan. After all, our Dayan has beautiful scenery and outstanding people. Isn't it normal that she wants to come and see it?"
"Really?" The emperor swallowed the words as he spoke.
It was already time for Gu Chengyu to come out of the palace. He got on the carriage and prepared to go back home. But he suddenly remembered that he had been too busy recently. Since the last time he went to the teacher's house, he had no time to go back.
.I have some free time today, so let’s go visit the teacher!
"Go to the Liang Mansion!" Gu Chengyu ordered, then sat back in the carriage and closed his eyes.
"oops!"
There was an exclamation from outside the carriage, the carriage suddenly stopped, and Gu Chengyu's body leaned forward involuntarily.
Gu Chengyu immediately stabilized his body. He almost wanted to curse. Why did he often encounter this kind of thing while riding in a carriage? His body had conditioned reflexes.
"What's going on?" Gu Chengyu suppressed the anger in his heart and asked in a deep voice.
"Sir!" Just as the coachman was about to reply, Gu Chengyu heard a woman's voice.
"Gu Chengyu, come out for me, princess!"
Huh? Gu Chengyu is a little confused, princess? Who is the princess? Which princess?
"Sir?" Ming Mo's face poked out of the car. He was sitting on the shaft of the car with the driver. He was also a little confused by this unexpected situation.
"Gu, what are you doing to me, Princess?"
Gu Chengyu was helpless and suddenly thought of Princess Bayu of Daxing who came to Dayan with her brother.
He lifted the car curtain and looked across. He saw a girl wearing a crimson cross-collar sword-sleeved robe sitting on a tall horse. The gold embroidered treasure flowers on the clothes were dimmed by the setting sun, making her look very gorgeous.
.
She is a beautiful woman with willow eyebrows, almond eyes and peach cheeks. However, her peach-like face is full of arrogance at the moment, making everyone around her want to stay away from her.
But Gu Chengyu's attention was not on her appearance, but on the long whip she held in her hand.
"It turns out to be Princess Bayu, how disrespectful!" Although Gu Chengyu didn't know why the other party came to the door and seemed so dissatisfied with him, the etiquette could not be broken.
Bayu couldn't help but snort as she watched the handsome young man in front of her get off the carriage and salute to her.
Bayu swung the long whip in his hand, his eyes stayed on Gu Chengyu's face for a moment, and then looked at Gu Chengyu from top to bottom, and suddenly said this sentence.
"Humph! It's nothing more than that! Look at this body, he looks like a weakling."
